So i was thinking today.. If one doesn't buy Factions, are they still able to play 12v12 matches with their Alliance? At the moment, i really don't feel like buying Factions until about June, but 12v12 was so fun that i'll have to buy Factions come release if it's on for Factions chars.. hmm..

To sum it up, can Prophecies characters partake in 12v12 alliance battles?

no

these 12v12 allience battles are only for factions characters,

BUT maybe (it wasn't in preview) they will add a 12v12 in random arenas to or something. Not sure about this one

You could compete in the 12v12 battles using Prophecies PvE characters by going to your Guild Hall and talking to the NPC.

This was in the beta though, but helps me to believe that it will be possible, similiar to GvG. (Seeing as 12v12 will be alliance vs alliance..)

Lets hope..

Maybe ANET can make a "little 12 vs 12 alliance battle" in the Kryta province, call it a marketing strategy.

Afterall, there are already establish Luxons and Kurzick settlements in there.

Say perhaps only one type of map, the location will be somewhere in the middle, in between the Luxons and Kurzick settlements.

Discuss.

I believe you will be able to battle in the alliance matches even if you have prophecies only.

Because:

1) Everyone has a Balthazar, Luxon, Kurzick faction bar on every character now.

2) How would guilds with factions, prophecies and merged accounts interact?? Surely it would be unfair to deny them the chance to play together.

3) Those guys are at the guild halls o.o

Yea, I kinda agree with lyra.

It would enhance GW:P a considerable ammount... and at the same time it would be a great advert/tempter/teaser for people to get factions and spend their faction points.
