BGCallouts
BGCallouts is a lightweight PvP helper addon that allows players to send fast and clear INC (incoming enemies) callouts in battlegrounds with a single click.
The addon removes the need to type messages during combat and helps teams react faster to incoming enemy attacks.
FEATURES
One-Click INC Callouts
Quickly send battleground warnings like:
INC Lumber Mill (3+)
INC Blacksmith (2)
INC Stables (5+)
No typing required — simply select the base and enemy count, then click send.
Automatic Base Detection
BGCallouts automatically detects which battleground base you are currently near.
Example:
Player near: Lumber Mill
This allows extremely fast callouts during combat.
If automatic detection fails, bases can also be selected manually.
Enemy Count Selection
Select the number of incoming enemies with one click:
1
2
3+
4
5+
This allows teams to immediately understand the threat level.
Full EU Language Support
BGCallouts supports all major EU client languages including:
English
German
French
Spanish
Russian
Italian
Portuguese
Base names are detected and displayed in the player's client language inside the UI and tooltips.
Standardized English Chat Callouts
Even if the player's game client uses another language, all battleground callouts are always posted in English.
Example:
INC Lumber Mill (3+)
This ensures clear communication in EU battlegrounds where English callouts are commonly used.
Raid Assist Helper
BGCallouts includes a helper for battleground raid leaders.
If you are the raid leader, you can grant raid assistant status to players with a single click.
This allows players to send Raid Warning callouts such as:
INC Lumber Mill (3+)
The feature is fully manual and requires a click by the raid leader.
Minimap Button
BGCallouts includes a minimap button that allows quick access to the addon interface.
Clean Battleground UI
A small movable UI automatically appears when entering battlegrounds.
The interface is designed to be:
minimal
fast to use
non-intrusive
No Automation / Player Controlled
BGCallouts never sends chat messages automatically.
All messages are sent only when the player presses the send button, ensuring full control and compliance with Blizzard addon policies.

GERMAN / DEUTSCH
BGCallouts ist ein leichtgewichtiges PvP-Addon, das schnelle INC-Meldungen (eingehende Gegner) in Schlachtfeldern ermöglicht.
Das Addon erkennt automatisch die aktuelle Basis in allen EU-Client-Sprachen und zeigt sie im Interface in der Sprache des Spielers an.
Die Chat-Meldungen werden jedoch immer auf Englisch gesendet, damit Teams im Battleground einheitlich kommunizieren können.
Raid-Leader können außerdem per Klick Assist-Rechte vergeben, damit Raid-Warning-Callouts möglich werden.
