Warhammer Online brings tanks into Heavy Metal live event

More On: Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning
Two new tanks are coming to Warhammer Online, and they're being introduced during the Heavy Metal live event taking place from November 18th - December 1st.  First up for the good guys, the Empire Knight of the Blazing Sun.  And up on the bad guys' side, the Dark Elf Black Guard.  Players that complete quests associated with the Heavy Metal event will be rewarded early access to these two new careers a full week before they're made available to the gaming public.

Also as part of the Heavy Metal event, players will have access to the new, instanced Reikland Factory -- a steam tank factory within Empire borders.  My time served in WAR has only just begun, but the Heavy Metal event is open to all players and all ranks so you can count me in, ready to fire it up.

Mythic Entertainment Rocks the Armies of WAR

With the Heavy Metal Live Event

 

 

Prepare for the coming tank rush! Starting tomorrow, the forces of Order and Destruction in Warhammer® Online: Age of Reckoning™ will face a brand new challenge as the Heavy Metal live event blasts onto the battlefield.

 

During this special in-game event, which runs from November 18th until December 1st, the armies of WAR will be given orders in preparation for the arrival of two new tank classes - the Empire Knight of the Blazing Sun and the Dark Elf Black Guard. Players that successfully complete the quests associated with the Heavy Metal event will be rewarded with early access to the new careers a full week before they are available to the general public.

 

As part of the Heavy Metal live event, players will also have special access to Reikland Factory, a new, instanced Scenario taking place on the grounds of an Empire steam tank factory. This Scenario is available to all players and all ranks, but will only be open for battle during the live event. Soldiers are encouraged to secure the Reikland Factory for their Realm, and continue the fight across the many other battlefields of WAR during Heavy Metal.

 

Based on the popular tabletop war game from Games Workshop, Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning features revolutionary Realm vs. Realm™ conflict that will provide players with an engaging battleground for years to come. Available now for PC, WAR is rated "T" for Teen by the ESRB.
