Many of you may be wondering, "Hey, How do I get into an Eternal Crusade match? I've been Queued for a while and nothings happened!"
or you may just be wondering if anyone still plays.

WORRY NOT, BROTHERS OF THE IMPERIUM, THE CRUSADE STANDS STRONG!

Theres a Certain set of Hours where you can play the game and reliably find matches. An Unspoken "Happy Hour" in the community.
Most of the time, you'll find a game at night, or on the weekends.

Now then, You're there, you're on your Ork who you've been dying to play, its Happy Hour... and you've clicked 'Battle Now' without checking the World Map.
I highly suggest not using Battle Now, unless you KNOW FOR A FACT, There is matches of your Race going on.

ALWAYS CHECK THE WORLD MAP FIRST FOR ONGOING MATCHES.

Its Simple!

-Pick a Character (Doesn't matter what race or Rank.)
-Go to the World Map. (Its the button right under the big shiny 'Battle Now' button)
-Look around for the Grey Arrow above 'Contested Land'.
-Look at the Symbols of the Factions fighting.

So say you're an Ork and you've just seen that Chaos and the Loyalists are Fighting, Well, you can't be Krumpin' the Umiez alone can you?
You have 3 Choices:
-Change to Chaos or Loyalist (You have 4 Characters, you should have atleast one of those two...)
-Call up some Buddies and try to start a match (You need a Minimum of 8 on BOTH sides to start a 15v15 Match.)
-Ping the Faction Hubs or a Guild and try to get into a match.

**NOTE: Doing the other two will very possibly pull Fighters from the other sides, so you may take away enough Chaos or Loyalists that they might be unable to keep doing matches vs each other.

So you may be Wondering How to get into more matches Reliably, and without having to Boot up Eternal Crusade every Time.
The answer is Simple: Join the Community Discord!

Discord LINK: https://discord.gg/HkvydAe

There are Roles that are Pinged there, 1 for Each of the Races, as well as an Overall "You want to Fight? Heres a Fight" Role.

I'm typically the one that Pings, and i may not even be online. I hang out in the Faction Hubs and see if theres anyone talking about Matches going on, before I go to the Main Hub and Ping the Races that the Matches Concern.



My First Guide, and its about how to get into a Match for a Game thats been abandoned without a Goodbye.
