Guild:Icy Swords Of Battle

About Icy [ISB]
The Icy Swords Of Battle [ISB] guild was founded on August 27, 2009. The Icy Swords Of Battle is a part of the [ISB] Alliance guilds and shares similar goals, to create a fun, respectful and enjoyable gaming environment for all the guild members.

The [ISB] Alliance was first started with the creation of the Intrepid Shadow Blades [ISB] guild, founded on September 29, 2005. The guild was created by guild leader/founder Biggie Gimp and other in-game players and friends. The objective of the guild was to create a fun, respectful and enjoyable gaming environment for everyone. Whether you are new to the game or an experienced player, everyone is treated equally and included in all guild/alliance related activities.

The Intrepid Shadow Blades guild has been actively involved with PvE and PvP alliances to faction based alliances. While involved with faction based alliances, Intrepid has succeeded in ownership of many towns, including House Zu Heltzer (#1 Kurzick Town). After a long period of faction farming, the guild decided to move forward towards more PvE and PvP activities such as HM missions, dungeons, vanquishing, Fissure of Woe, Underworld, hosting guild events, etc. After four years of Intrepid, the guild expanded and the Icy Swords of Battle [ISB] was born. Icy [ISB] was created with the same values and goals in mind. With two united forces combined Intrepid and Icy now lead an alliance with other allied guilds.

Today, the [ISB] Alliance has been recognized as one of the most established PvE based guild/alliance in the Guild Wars game. [ISB] prides in creating a friendly environment where others can create friendships and overall, have a fun gaming experience!
