begin down the ROAD TO WAR!
For those salivating at the prospect of an all-out confrontation between the forces of Order and Destruction, you may now throw yourselves into the open embrace of Realm vs. Realm battle before WAR even goes live. In Road to WAR, each side will endeavor to obliterate their enemy, with the overall objective of achieving a preemptive victory at the onset of the Age of Reckoning. The Winning Realm will be amply rewarded with spoils of war that may be used in the live game. Special rewards will be reserved for top players. Declare your allegiance, choose your army, and march into battle on the Road to WAR.
Each week on the Road to WAR there will be featured Battles and Quests allowing players to earn points towards valuable in-game rewards and bragging rights. Here are the first two challenges:
BATTLE NO.1: DAVID AND GOLIATH
The armies have been formed, the bloodlust is palpable, and the stage is set for the first battle on the Road to WAR. The battle this week features the goliath state of Texas and the diminutive state of Rhode Island. If Texas represents brute strength then Rhode Island represents cunning―and your Realm will need both as they trap and butcher their enemies in the struggle for absolute power. Both Order and Destruction must gather reinforcements to take power over Rhode Island and Texas. If you live in one of these two states then recruit to bolster your numbers. If you live elsewhere, earn Gold and donate to the cause. The Realm that can take control of both states will have a crucial advantage in this vicious and inequitable battle.
Battle Objectives: Take Control of both Rhode Island and Texas. Recruit soldiers.
GOLD QUEST: DECLARE YOUR ALLEGIANCE
At this juncture it is not known which Realm has the most loyal followers, so the first quest is to meet at the gates of Beta and declare your allegiance. Failure to complete this Quest shall be the scourge of your Realm.
Quest Objective: Go to the Warhammer Online Beta Center and enter one of the supplied association codes from this newsletter. Declare for Order side with Destruction. Each member of the most favored Realm will receive 100 Gold for their war chest in the Road to WAR.
Association Codes:
ORDER
DESTRUCTION

We have always believed that WAR is something special, and unlike any of the other fantasy MMORPGs out there. We wanted our advertising to be something special, something different as well. Check out the image below and we think you’ll agree - this is not your typical fantasy game advertising. Thanks to Freestyle Interactive for creating the “Waves of WAR” campaign and capturing the RvR dynamic in such a unique and compelling way.
Our print ads will soon be running, but here is a sneak peek of what is to come. We believe it’s going to stop readers dead in their tracks! Be sure to look for the hidden Realm codes to enter at the Road to WAR website and earn valuable credit for your efforts. (No, the codes are not printed in the above image. You’ll have to check out the actual ad to find them.)
