Once again, the Wargrounds thrums with the energy of life. The Season of Harvest is upon us.
The Season of Harvest is upon Arebnak, and even the Wargrounds bends to the turns of wheel. While the rest of the continent enjoys the fruits of the harvest, the warbands of the Wargrounds must gather and till the cursed supplies earth, taking advantage of its unnatural eddies of magic that accelerate growth and fermentation to resupply their larders. Patches of earth that grow safe crops are scarce, however, and those who are unwilling to sully their hands slaughtering their fellow man for a sack of strangely twitching potatoes may attempt to seek out other means of feeding themselves; forgotten storehouses housing nearly edible preserved goods from other, less fortunate expeditions.
Beware, however, for this Season of Harvest arrives beneath a bad moon and ill favored omen. Monstrous births, bad signs, dire portents all follow in the wake of this year's fall of the scythe!

Harvest the Crops
Harvest Crops from the Farm and deposit in Faction Storage.
Control key farm zone to gather crops. Up to 5 players can harvest at a time, roleplaying farm work for 5 minutes to earn food. Farms may die out; seek an NPC to restore.
When players want to gather a harvest, they may allocate up to 5 players to harvest at a time (per crop). Those selected must place their weapons down next to the egg-timer, set the egg-timer for minutes, and then stay in the allocated zone whilst pretending to harvest - pretend to plough, pick veggies, etc until the timer is complete. For each player harvesting, they may collect one Perishable Food each from the basket next to the timer. If the players are attacked during harvest (and survive), they must restart their timer.
The Farm may become unusable throughout the day as the last of its energy is tapped, and the tainted corruption of the lands seeps into the soil. Certain NPCs may be able to reinvigorate the land, allowing it to become harvestable once again.
