We’re used to always being unusual, to people always remarking ‘it’s a girl!’ when we speak up on TS, and so on.

I think you’re right though, younger women are far more likely to have grown up with gaming. And it’s GREAT. It’s very very nice to be able to game in a mixed community with more even numbers of men and women. Even so, I’m willing to bet that online gaming communities which specialise in FPS/PvP games (eg, xbox live) are heavily male dominated.

There’s an organisation of in game journalists who publish the stories you see when you log in and occasionally one of them will feel intrepid and go chasing a big fight (such as the 49- fight earlier in the year).

The problem is they are targetable and just about everyone kills neutrals.

The other big source of war news is from the participants. Scrapheap Challenge has a decent sub-forum devoted to war news and the official boards have CAOD where people brag and propaganise each other.
