Interactive Court

The Interactive Court (or IC) is basically a chat area in each game, but with some enhancements have been made to accommodate the Games Play. For example, this is where fencing duels occur and an Interactive version of the Gluckshaus game. It really has to be experienced to be appreciated. Below are the commands available in the IC.
