Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning Preview

WarCry has put together a new two-page preview of Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning, based on what they saw of the game during a visit to EA Mythic’s headquarters.

Realm vs. realm conflict is an integral parts of Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning. During my visit, I was able to experience the ultimate goal of RvR and capture an opposing capital city. Defeating journalists from other websites in PvP combat was just a bonus.

The battle for the Order capital of Altdorf started in a military district of the city with players from both sides fighting over six control points. I played as a geared-up, leveled-up Chaos Chosen with a two-hand sword to maximize damage. When the battle started, I noticed an enemy player with a name that had been used the day before during our play session, so I knew someone in the room was playing. My suspicions were confirmed when I hit them for about a third of their health in one shot and the person to my immediate left exclaimed, “Oh my god!” Good times. While the rest of my team captured the control points, I managed to kill my hapless victim four more times.
