    EVE Celebrates Holidays With Interstellar Snowball Fights

    In space, no one can hear you yell, "Duck!" EVE Online players are logging in today to discover that their hangar contains a special gift - a snowball launcher and 300 rounds of ammunition.

    I logged into my own tiny, insignificant EVE Online account, but I'm not sure I even have a hangar. Yes, that's how deep I've gotten into the experience so far. I'm trying though! Instead of my personal experience, we'll have to take the word of Xiphos from the EVE blog A Misguided Adventurer.

    Happy Holidays from CCP! Everyone check your hangars and you’ll find a nice little gift from CCP. 300 Snowballs and a Snowball Launcher. A High slot fitting, these deadly cold balls of ice do -10 Thermal Damage and are damn fun. Start launching some at your friends and enemies and let’s get a massive snowball fight started in Jita, top station!

    I have no idea what most of that meant, but I am learning, dammit. By next Christmas I should have it all down pat.

    Snowballs, CCP, and Cold Damage?
