   With the impending conclusion of the first major Lineage II chapter (The Chaotic Chronicle), a new one will begin this April on the game's European and US servers. The Chaotic Throne, as NCsoft calls it, will expand the Lineage II saga with a wealth of new content, and if all turns out exciting enough for the players, it might just expand the 14-million strong userbase as well.

   The bridging link between Lineage II: The Chaotic Chronicle, and The Chaotic Throne, will be called "Interlude". Along with NCsoft's latest announcement detailing the contents of this following update, we bring you this first batch of screenshots from the expansion, and you might also want to check out the Lineage II: Interlude trailer that's been around for a couple of months (as you might imagine, Interlude is nothing new for the Koreans...).

   Aside from the usual round-up of novelties (new items, new quests, new skills and such), Interlude will also introduce a new zone "Primeval Isle", a new dueling system, and the so called Shadow Weapons, to name but the most prominent features. A few details about them can be found below:
- New Zone - Primeval Isle - Pterodactyls dominate the skies and vicious dinosaurs prowl the earth in a hunting ground for top-level players. (ed. - Un'Goro Crater anyone?)
- New Items - 15,000 different items to be discovered
- More weapon augmentations for incredible bonuses - With the help of a Blacksmith, players can receive even more spectacular bonuses to abilities, battle values and skills
- Shadow Weapons - Weapons can be expensive - limiting their acquisition to advanced players with enough money. Shadow Weapons look and behave like ‘the real thing' but are cheap enough for new players to afford them. However, as shadows of real weapons, they will eventually wear out and disappear.
- New Duelling system - PvP almost anywhere with no penalties. No need to go to an arena and for the first time - see your opponent's hit points!
- Multiple New Quests - enter the mighty Siren's lair or capture a Tyrannosaurus to bring fame and fortune to your clan. Just one of the many new quests that will test the mettle of the most hardened players
- Multiple New Skills - over 60 new high level skills added to the game let players expand and develop even further and bring new dynamics to PvP and PvE combat. Players will have no shortage of ingenious ways of dealing with their adversaries    Lineage II: The Chaotic Throne - Interlude is planned to go live in April 2007 on European and US servers, and from what this week's announcement implies, it will build on the game's "free updates" tradition.
