An Official CA Discussion section was recently opened in our forumswhere staff post questions to encourage debate and get feedback from the community.  The first of which called for any questions regarding Kingdoms, and after four pages of requests, Brendan Rogers from CA Oz stepped in and answered a whopping 31 of them. The results of which have been turned into a brand-new Blog.
