All ninjas are assassins, but not all assassins are ninja :P

Ninja were highly trained in stealth. The Nika may not be a Ninja, but I would say it is close enough. It's kinda like Rogues in WoW. They're not called Ninjas, but they certainly could pass for one... at least in the right costume.

The last word I heard was the first-half of 2006. So, that leads me to think second quarter. Game Developers rarely say "first-half" when they mean January or February. Knowing ArenaNet and deadlines, it's probably more like May or June. That's right Guild Wars fans... you're in for a long wait.

A prime comparison would be Sorrow's Furnace. It was promoted as a Summer Update. It was technically released during the summer, but it was released after labor day. The original schedule for expansions was supposed to be 6-9 months. That doesn't seem likely, as Guild Wars was released roughly seven months ago.

It's going to be one long winter. :/
