July is upon us, bringing with it a massive month of fun across the Iron Realms!

* Firstly, IRONCON! Our first official IRE-wide con/meet (http://www.ironrealms.com/ironcon)! Tickets are sold out, there may still be a chance to pick some up on the forums, so head over to http://forums.achaea.com and ask about!

* While we sadly say goodbye to shrouds and the ice figurines, we're pleased to announce the triumphant return of artefact packages on Achaea.com! These pre-packaged artefacts offer a fine saving when purchased directly from the website!

* Last but certainly not least: Globes of shifting continents sneak their way in amongst the artefacts for sale on Achaea.com! These have been refreshed with a selection of new items, including some adorable minipets, as well as generally higher payouts across the board!

Don't forget that the IRE lottery continues until we have another winner! Get your tickets with every credit purchase on Achaea.com, or in-game! See HELP IRE LOTTERY for more details.
