We've got a backlog of other news to bring you! Please find all the
details below of everything else that has happened recently:

1) We're pleased to announce the beta test of our new IRE client! Using
the latest HTML5 and Websockets technology, our new client can more
efficiently navigate around pesky firewalls and proxy servers that may
normally block Achaea! You'll find it instantly loading and full of
features! Check it out at http://client.achaea.com today! Owing to its
use of HTML5 technology, it works in the latest versions of Google
Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Apple Safari - I'm afraid that those of you
who are using Microsoft IE, you'll have to wait until IE10 becomes
available (or switch to a better browser).

We're still waiting on our final artwork for it, so don't worry too much
about how it looks/sounds, and if you have any comments/suggestions,
please use the "Send Feedback" button in the top right corner.

2) If you're one of those unlucky MS IE users, feel free to check out
the beta version of our Flash client at
http://www.ironrealms.com/flash/test/ire.html - it supports many of the
same features! Comments and concerns about this client can be directed
to our flash client team at flash@ironrealms.com!

3) Our first Combat rankings season has wrapped up! Congratulations go
out to the following warriors, who dominated all competition over the
past 3 months:
* 1st: Carmain Fol'ia - Apostate
* 2nd: Mizik Corten - Runewarden
* 3rd: Ellodin Longshanks - Paladin

4) Our final WEEKRANKS contest finished on Sunday night with Kald taking
home the top place (and 100 credits) - well done!
