Codemasters has announced that the battle to become Archlord has begun. And if prestige, special powers, and an in-game castle of your very own weren't enough incentive, Codemasters has announced that the first player to be crowned Archlord will receive a life-sized suit of Armour.

ArchLord Suit of Armour Battle Begins

Codemasters Online and ArchLord, the free to play MMO, are pleased to announce that the battle to become the all ruling, all powerful ArchLord has begun! Saturday August 4th saw the first Siege warfare battle take place. It was amazing to see so many guilds in game, taking part in some frantic PvP action. There is still a chance to take part in the weekly siege battles; sign-up and you are ready to go!

This also signifies the start of the hunt to win the Life-sized suit of Armour. Codemasters Online is giving away a life-sized suit of Armour to the very first player to be crowned ArchLord. All you need to do is round up your mates, form a guild and let battle commence. Take part in the weekly sieges every Saturday to win control of your very own castle. Then at the end of every month one player will be able to compete to become the ArchLord, and with it receive special powers, their own castle and their own armour set.

Get ready to compete to become the one, the only, ArchLord!
