Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning - An Introduction

Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning is a highly successful massively multi-player online role-playing video game based around Games Workshop's Warhammer Fantasy world, developed by Mythic Entertainment and released in 2021. The game was well received by fans of the original Warhammer game but there were a number of changes made to the game, most significantly the switch from using the pencil and paper role-play style to using a gamepad or a computer. The change brought about a lot of changes to the game that are discussed below. It is also important to note that Age of Reckoning featured the return of classic races like the Dwarf, the High Elf and the High Orc as playable races, bringing some of the classic races from previous editions of Warhammer into the game for the first time.
One of the biggest changes in Age of Reckoning is that instead of acting out scenarios in traditional ways like dice rolls, characters are now chosen from a pool of 12 different races. Each race brings with it its own special trait and abilities which can be used in any scenario. This helps to make each race feel unique and gives players a reason to return to the game for additional content.
Apart from this change, Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning also sees the return of many older classes that were removed in favour of newer ones. This is most welcome news for anyone who enjoyed playing certain classes in previous editions of Warhammer Online, as it means that some of the more annoying (and sometimes mop up) strategies from previous gamesets are still around, but in a different form. In short, the purpose of Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning is to offer more content than was initially expected, so any returning players of the game will have plenty to keep them busy. Newbies, meanwhile, will find themselves with a much shorter list of options when starting out, but the variety of options available to each class is still large and very exciting. I recommend you log on today and give Age of Reckoning a try - I can promise you'll not be disappointed.
