There was much rejoicing on Warhammer Online"s European server Karak Eight Peaks recently, as the Destruction faction managed the game"s first complete capture of an opposing city. The Order Emperor Karl Franz has been caged, and it seems that a great deal of rotten fruit is in order.

According to Massively, victory was achieved by the Third Realm alliance after a 14-hour marathon over the past weekend. The necessary quests completed with fewer than two minutes remaining in the time limit, the king finally went down for the count after a massive battle. The Destruction players were handsomely rewarded for their efforts.

The sacking of Altdorf comes approximately seven months after the game"s initial release, and it"ll be interesting to see if such events become a trend in Warhammer Online. For now, congratulations to the Third Realm alliance on an impressive victory.
