Updates and Game Improvements:

It's been far too long since an update was initiated on this site. Since last Year, we have had some minor changes, and some major ones. There are a few projects on the go that have distracted myself and the staff, from Merc-Guild. One of which is taking up most of my time, other than work related. The other most Recent, is the news that BioHazard has decided to step down as Leader of StarBender. All of us here at SB have thanked Biohazard, for such a great Endeavour keeping SB alive, and on the Leaderboards as one of the well-polished Empire Squads IN SWC. Yet in Time, comes change, and the Future is not set. StarBender will go on under new Leadership. Until a time that will determine, like most Squads, Leagues and or Clans, transitions are a part of the real would dynamics of any title.

So in conclusion, Hats off to You Biohazard, for a very well earned Rest, amongst the ranks of Elite Players in the SWC Community.
