Examiner: "Not content with the real baseball bat you get in the mail for beating prostitutes in Grand Theft Auto IV? Have I got a deal for you! Massively multiplayer online collectible real-time strategy game SAGA (quite the mouthful) is the center of a new contest in which the grand prize is none other than a ballista.

Yes, I said a freaking ballista. Not entirely sure what a ballista is? Well, step one involves looking at the picture associated with this article, but if that's not enough for you, let's just say that it's like a giant crossbow designed for hurling boulders and huge arrows made out of tree trunks."

Jim Rossignol reports:

''Egad, the Massive Multiplayer Online Real Time Strategy games are coming! First there was Saga, which we long-ago decided was a bit flimsy and without the detail, colour, or bombast to really grip us. (Contemporary experience may differ.) Now two more strategies claiming to be "massive" have appeared on the RPS radar, and they looking quite different in both tone and execution.''

Indie developer Silverlode Interactive accosted me outside the press room at GDC to show me their new MMORTS (Massively Multiplayer Online Real-Time Strategy) game, SAGA. The game looks interesting enough, and given the fact that it's essentially free, it very well may be worth your time. I checked out the beta yesterday, and I have to say that I have no idea what I'm doing. There seemed to be plenty of people who did, however, so maybe I just missed something.

Either way, SAGA has just entered open beta for the public, so you can give the game a shot for yourself. Full press release can be viewed at the site, as well as screenshots and a trailer.

MMORPG Center has teamed up with Silverlode Interactive to bring you an exciting contest for SAGA! From Feb 1 2008 to Feb 14 2008, MMORPG Center will accept player-submitted guides for SAGA. The guides may be about city management, game-play strategy or other topics that help new players who are just learning the game.

The best 3 guides will receive prizes in the form of 10 SAGA booster packs each, and will be published on MMORPG Center, and the SAGA official site.

Saga is a persistent game and played online in a massively-multiplayer environment. Every building you build, troop you buy, and piece of land you conquer remains with you as long as you play the game. That means every time you fight your friends, you won't have to rebuild your castle from scratch. It also means every time your buildings get damaged or your troops killed, they stay that way unless you repair or resurrect them. Troops gain experience over time, meaning that they move with you from battle to battle, improving their skills and finding exciting new armor and weapons to equip themselves with.
