Some of us recently joined the Project1999 Legends server that recently came online. It's an oldschool style Everquest 1 server, which happens to be one of the first games that TW played together as a guild. We spent many years and long hours of raiding on the old Morell-Thule server and have fond memories.
Anyway, project1999 has dedicated itself towards reliving the old glory days. EQ1 was one of the most hardcore MMO's in recent memory, where nothing was instanced and guilds competed for world bosses. TW was fortunate to build a solid reputation as a premiere raiding guild back then. In fact, we're prolly better known for our accomplishments on Morell-Thule than any other game outside of Quake and WoW.
At this point, we don't have the resources, nor the dedication we had 10 years ago to push the limits as we once did. However, we have plans to be a part of a highly accomplished, veteran group of oldschool players to experience all the end game content our bodies can endure.
The devs plan on following the games natural progression through the Luclin expansion as if it were 1999 all over again. The server is currently level capped at 50 and it's in the pre-Kunark stage. Jboots recently got moved out of Najeena and the manastones got the nerf, just as it was in the good ole days.
A few of us Allupnya(Rikzat), Brennon(Hurtt), Narkon and myself (Buffoon), have all rolled new toons and are actively playing. We've been foruntate to stumble upon lots of old friends and enemies in our short time on the server. In fact, we ran into two other MIA ThunderWalker members from our glory days.
It looks as though we found something to keep us entertained until the next MMO title makes waves.
Old friends and members are welcome to join in on the fun, you can download the client and get instructions on how to join in at http://www.project1999.org.
Classes that would fit well into our current setup are: Enchanter, Rogue, Monk, Bard, Druid, Shaman, Ranger, Necro, or Mage and of course CLERICs! Lots and lots of CLERICS!
It's FREE to play

Wow, I was just looking at this and missing the old days... I laughed at Knox and Sumpet in the screenshot. Oh the golden age of Everquest. I still play on Maelin server as Sevex.
I used to play on MT as Chumb. My RL brother was Logan Creed. I took over Rikzat's account for a bit and then I took over Durc's account. I miss the good old days and I really hope to see a new character of mine with a Thunderwalkers tag over my head soon. Can't wait to try this project99!
