 yonix posted a preview about the new Battlegrounds instance (Arathi Basin) which is currently in development. "The war between Horde and Alliance has spilled onto a new arena. As resources are spent waging battle, both sides must find new territories to plunder in order to feed their ongoing war effort. The League of Arathor and the Forsaken Defilers have both been tasked with conquering the resource-rich Arathi Basin...and you have been drafted to help. Who ever takes the Basin will gain untold riches for their side and cripple the enemy. Find out how to win this all-new Battleground and discover what honors and rewards await those who find victory in Arathi Basin.".
Arathi Basin is a 15v15 PvP Instance where both sides compete to control 5 resource points (Farm, Smithy, Lumber Mill, Gold Mine, and Stables). Each cotnrolled resource generates resources for the conrtolling team. The More resource noes your team controls, the faster you generate resources for your team. The first team to gain 2,000 resources wins. Resources accumulated in Arathi Basin translate directly into bonus honor for players. Even if you do not win the Battleground, you will still receive honor... unless of course you failed to control even one resource node. You will also improve your reputation with the Defilers or League of Arathor when you play, which will unlock many new and powerful rewards as in Warsong Gulch. The Arathi Basin instances are also grouped by levels just like Warsong Gulch. The minimum level to join is 21-30, 31-40, etc.
