Warhammer
 
Hello Old Timers!

/me does a little dance!

Not seen or heard from many of you in years!! I did something very sensible and took a few years of from gaming to complete my degree....yes its true...but all that time i saved ended up being spent in the pub :/ oh well.

Now I'm in full time work I have lots of spare time in the evenings \o/ After a few weeks of PA i have realised why I left that sh** game in the first place...damn you Furbie for getting me involved again.

Anyways, i see you have a forum section for Warhammer....with nothing in it...You guys thinking of playing!? Was thinking of either that of Age of Conan....not quite decided yet.

Anyways, I need to get back to work ;)

Hugs and kisses

Toxi 14-05-2007 19:28

I am 99.9% sure we will have a presence in WAR to some degree :]

Bociwen 14-05-2007 20:23

What Toxi said, a fair number of lego's, particularly from the WoW group, seem interested in Warhammer for some reason :P

Bowlsey 14-05-2007 21:03

It's quite obviously going to be a superior game ;) The Warhammer Realm has such has such a rich and epic storyline to it. The ultimate Fantasy World, and lets face it, it's had about 30 years to evolve so it should be! I've been a fan since I was about 12! :p

Chirnovnik 14-05-2007 22:53

I'll be there. I've been playing tabletop Warhammer and 40k since the age
of 10. I can't pass up the opportunity to see the world breathe.

Bowlsey 14-05-2007 23:32

Precisely, I've been playing table top for quite some time. Took a break for uni and have gotten back into it. Tho admitidly more 40k than fantasy. Gotta love the Chaos Chosen tho! They look incredibly menacing :D

Anunnak 15-05-2007 00:27

Skaven... Yes-yes we sneak-snea... Run away!!!!
Skaven rock.

From what I understand those that are going to play Warhammer online will be siding with disorder. Well at least those that I know are going to play.

I play Sisters of Battle (Witch Hunters). Nothing says triumph like beating you
with women... and nuns at that.

Bociwen 15-05-2007 03:30

Never played fantasy, but love 40k, havent played in awhile, but still have my figures ^^

TAZ 15-05-2007 10:07

Bowlsey 15-05-2007 11:08

This is an older picture... the ones in the back are in various stages of unpaint.
But I recently stripped 'em to go back and do red armor with white cloth. The
living saint stays in white with gold trim, though =p

multiple people did, hope that won't screw us :/
But I also guess we might just be too big to get an invite.

Tobler 15-05-2007 12:03

Everyone is still hoping Gren goes Order so the rest of us can gank him :p

LOL :biggrin:

Mythic have said they are looking for guilds of all sizes, from the very large to they very small....so i think there is a good chance Legion would get in. Especially if u have a very large member base

war looks like wow to me, not very interesting right now.

Depends what it is you dont like about wow. WAR is more Realm vs Realm....and not 5 hour instances etc....

Cyrt 15-05-2007 16:34

Itīs WAR or AoC for me, but 80% WAR.

took a look at AoC and have to admit i prefer the look of WAR :)

Icewolf 16-05-2007 09:39

I never was interested in AoC until I talked to one of their guys on a RPG Convention. What really makes it interesting are the guild PvP servers they are planning, where you can build cities and get attacked by other guilds. Not sure how they will implement it, but it might be perfect for Legion.

Also on the same event I was able to play a WAR battleground, pretty much similar to WoW, but I hope the PvP will not just be battlegrounds, that would suck.

We have to wait for more details on both games I guess...

There are actually several ways to PvP. The battlegrounds are a component
of the land control system. In this way, they are functionally different from
the pvp instances in WoW (at least back when I was playing WoW, unless
they've altered the system to make it have an impact on the game world).
So even if it is a similar game of capture the flag, the goal is a component of
a larger strategy of conquering territory, which is a significant difference. I
recommend going to www.warhammeronline.com and watching the
pvp/battlegrounds podcast andthe RvR podcast.. They explain how the land
control scale is balanced. I like the system the way they describe it. Taken as a
whole, it has nuances that WoW lacks (or lacked when I was playing). If WoW
is that nice T-Rex skeleton you see in the Smithsonian, then WAR would be the
monstrocity. Sure they're the same species, but one is more fleshed out.
that chased down the trucks in "Jurassic Park."

If they can pull this off then that will certainly change things. This is a great idea :biggrin:

I do so like the Chaos Chosen tho....

Chirnovnik 17-05-2007 11:42

Well, Shadowbane has that. We're not playing that, are we? I remember
playing it briefly with some other friends of mine a while back. I think it's free
now as well.

Emohawk 17-05-2007 16:59

If there was a Warhammer 40k I'd play...

All things come to those that wait :p

40k the mmorgp is in the planning stage atm.

Toxi 17-05-2007 18:25

In addition we are also thinking about a trek to Pirates of the Burning Sea. But a WAR division is definite and i dont care were going destruction. Enough of this alliance bs.

Bowlsey 17-05-2007 18:37

Can't wait for a 40k version!

Destruction is the only way forward ;) Can't beat a little bit of blood and mayhem :p

Am i missing the WAR section? Where is it? :(

Toxi 17-05-2007 22:56

The section is there, the forums are not currently implemented. When we get closer to launch / more ppl in beta then they will be added until then there are some threads floating around.

Zaric 18-05-2007 03:01

I would love to play Warhammer online..

Relifex 28-05-2007 00:18

I will 100% surely be in warhammer.
