> [@Invasion Weekend: Fey](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/invasion-weekend-fey/63010): > > Originally published at: [Invasion Weekend: Fey – Gems of War](https://gemsofwar.com/invasion-weekend-fey/) Returning Invasion Troop: Old Man Oakroot Old Man Oakroot has returned to lead the Fey during this weekend’s Invasion. You can get him from the Event shop during this event. New Weapon: Faery Ring This weekend it will be available in both the Event shop, and in the Soulforge. Aside from the Nostalgia factor (especially when compared with the weapon-restricted Festival of the Sun, or the absolutely forgettable Council of Chiefs), and the enjoyably large number of troops (and therefore approaches) that can be used in this weekend Invasion, these weekend events are providing an incentive to invest gems that differs from the ‘pay to reduce grind’ that this Company seems to be determined to enforce as of late: because players generally enjoy feeling like they can kill big opponents, it’s fun to have the Siegebreaker at max ascension, and a large number of troops/weapons to choose from from the get-go, and may thus get that extra tier here and there in the shop because they want to, not because they are trying to reduce the grind. Unusual in GoW, thus noteworthy. 😌 🖖 --- _[View the full topic](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/as-requested-by-a-dev-a-thread-about-devs-actions-inactions/61445)._
