"Then out spake brave Horatius, the Captain of the gate:
 To every man upon this earth, death cometh soon or late.
 And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds.
 For the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his Gods."

WW2OL's business model is terrible.  Which explains the desperation they are facing.

Can you elaborate on the desperation aspect?

I seriously had no idea they were still in business.

The original dev team bailed on it, it's entirely volunteers working on stuff and trying to keep the lights on.


To be fair, they've accomplished more in the last little while than CRS did in the last several years they ran the game.
