I joined the Old Camp...I killed the Minecrawler Queen....I returned the eggs to Car Kalom...
I now need to return to the Old Camp and get promoted. So which is better? Do I want to become a Mage or do i want to become a Guard.
Can anyone help me and explain which is better.....

Well it depends if you want to be a magician of a warrior. Where have you put your skills in so far. Theres a trick where you can become a guard and then join the mages later but I'm not quite sure of the exact process and don't want to stuff you up.

Warrior: You fight, fight, and fight with normal weapons and bows, and you're not able to use runes.
Mage: You are able to gain in circles and use runes. However, you'll have to do a lot of running.
I'd say you try to play both, one after another.

If you have no preference, then go for Guard! Train your strength and whack and whack. Works for most people.
If you don't mind being a weakling with pitiful damage power to start with, and continue being weak for a long long time, then choose Mage. Mind you, Mages will lose to warriors at first... but by the end the spells are so powerful, no warrior stands a chance. Plus you get to watch those cool f/x when you do the spells.
Bottom line... not much difference! You can join Mages, but train like a warrior. Or you can join Guards and train as a mage (although much much later!) |

Play a mage. It's too easy to max out exp as a warrior then you can't use runes. 
You can still buy all of the warrior skills as a mage and robes protect more, in general.

You could play both (even at the same time !!!!) but being a mage gives you more fun! I started as a warior and nearly ended the game bored as hell!!!! As a mage you are never bored! Fun spells, and ,of course, the woice of fried enemies oh men! I love being a mage. Try it!!!! (The army needs you  )

Join the OC and when you get the chance to become a Mage talk to whats-his-face and then when he goes inside to give you the test for being a Mage run over to Thorus and ask to be a Guard. Then buy Heavy Guard armor, go back to whats-his-face and complete the Mage training.
TA DAAA
You are now a Mage with Heavy Guard armor.

Sadly, you can never get Heavy Guard Armour.
You'll have to make due with the Medium stuff.

You can also become a guard, then in chapter 4 join the water mages.

Sorry about calling it Heavy Guard Armor. After my 1st time through I called the medium armor heavy and called the other stuff light. Just me not thinking...
