Competitive Missions

Guild Wars Factions introduced a new kind of mission - the competitive mission. So far, it is the only campaign to include these, and there are only two, and they are fought with random teams of 8. Fort Aspenwood is set in the Echovald Forest, with the Kurzicks inside the Fort and defending while a sonic weapon is built which can easily destroy a Luxon Leviathan. Luxons win if they manage to kill the NPC building the weapon. Kurzicks win if he survives and builds it.

The Jade Quarry has both sides trying to get precious Jade back to their base from a series of mine deposits. The team with the most returned at the end will win. Luxon Juggernauts and Kurzick Wallows provide the means of transporting the Jade. Killing one means they need to get another one from their base.

Jade Quarry has proved to be quite unpopular because of the time needed to win, and the relatively difficult objectives with completely random teams of 8 and no voice chat to coordinate them. Fort Aspenwood is more popular because of the straight forward objectives. These missions also help move the Faction War line on the Guild Wars Factions worldmap, just like Alliance Battles.
