New PvE realm open for character creation
On top of free transfers for both North American and European servers, a brand new realm has opened up for the US! The vital stats:
Name: Borean Tundra
Type: PvE
Time Zone: Central
Battlegroup: Emberstorm
As a non-transfer realm, you can't transfer characters to it (duh) or create Death Knights on it (unless you have another level 55+ character on that realm) for the next 3 months.
AQ gates are closed.
Reroll locusts, get ready to swarm. When I was on a few hours ago, the highest level was 13 (a hunter); it seems like the realm opened around when Bornakk did his post (9:30 PST/12:30 EST).
There is also, apparently, a new RP transfer realm planned to open at some point; we'll let you know as soon as we find out anything more.
P.S. Hi to Justin, Nerdan, and Healinator.
