Public Test Server Q&A, transcript from Gaarawar.
Q – What is the Red Plague all about and how will it affect the game?

James – It’s a plague and it’s red and it’s probably a portent.

A portent indeed, exactly as the warhammer lore tells…

Lots of new WAR blogs appearing in recent months, but this one in particular has caught my eye. Testpig vs Warhammer!

First off his banner is awesome, I mean come on…. who wouldn’t want to see a pig in boxing gloves?

Secondly Testpig has&nbsp…

Big difference.

Lot of people getting all in a stress about this situation, but keep in mind folks this is not really anything to do with Warhammer Online and Mythic. Gamesworkshop see Curse, which is a business, making money and using their IP witho…

Siege warfare: Castles, keeps, towers and flight-masters?

To really understand why siege warfare in DAoC is seen as being much better than in WAR, just like in my previous post you once again have to take a step back, look at the big picture and consi…

As you may have noticed, I always have a secondary MMO, something I dabble with to prevent me overplaying and burning out on my main game. Recently this secondary MMO has been my return to Dark Age of Camelot, a game I quit something like 8 years ago. …

The big question with this faction switching lark is: how long to wait between switching sides?

If it’s a short duration it will make the whole faction system farcical, but if it’s a few days… OK I agree with Shadow-war, yes that could work…

…I still think it’s a very bad idea. It won’t be a surprise to hear this was the big topic of debate on our guild’s ventrilo tonight and it’s probably not a shock either to discover than everyone thought it is a horrible idea. Unless it is to…

Producer’s Letter has this to say:

“By 1.3.6 players will have the capability to play as both Order and Destruction on the same server. We did this in Camelot, because we wanted to give players more choices about where they wanted to play and who they…

Old vid, but still amusing, in a OMFG I’m glad it wasnt me phoning him kind of way. Nobody can swear with quite as much passion as a Geordie lad. It’s a skill really.

Obviously this features naughty words and lots of anger. Seriously don’t watch it if…

Go check out Werit’s video from testing tomb of the Vulture Lord, WAR’s RvR enabled instance (yay for new purge changes!). You can see a few new things in it including the (optional) combat damage/heal flashing on characters.

Also if you’ve not&n…

Whilst trawling forums and the like I’ve seen a few folks asking “why do so many people want RATS as a playable race???”

To answer this I shall quote Pandemic of Karak Norn Brightwizardy fame:
“Who doesn’t want to play a race of paranoid rac…

There’s been WAR bloggers popping up all over the place lately, as my ever growing blogroll can testify to. I’m going to give an extra special shout out for Krosuss who’s been a regular commentator on my blog for a long time. He’s recently star…

Last night there was another 6v6 event on Karak Norn. I always like to attend these events (if I real life doesn’t get in the way) and yesterday I was happy to ninja myself onto the PC without causing too much marital strife. In the past I’ve alway…

In case you’ve been under a warcrafty rock for too long, crests are a type of RvR currency that drops from enemy players. There are different types of crest, Conqueror, Invader, etc and each type of crest can be spent on it’s associated armour set….

I’m going to continue playing along with this dream of The Red Plague expansion, for a start it’s an interesting topic and even if these rumours turn out to be a load of old bollocks (which is a distinct possibility), at some point WAR will get an …
