The storm comes September 18th 2008!

The day you have all been waiting for is nearly here, so prepare yourselves for WAR. This morning we released a press release detailing the date of Warhammer Online: Age of Reckonings release and subscription details, hit the jump for all the information.

WAAAGH!!!

One date down.

Now for the other couple key dates: Open Beta, Head Start for CE and SE.

Can't believe the day is actually coming.
I sense a drastic decrease in WoW subscriptions coming.

[MercDawg]

Just a few more weeks and all the voices in my head screaming WAAAAGH!!!!! will end

[Stytches]

That's more like it now I can WAAAAAAGH!! Or whatever Dark Elves say to express elation.

Nice to see that our subscription price is lower than the European one. Anyone know why this is, though?

It always has been that way. They don't lower the prices for Europeans based on the exchange rate. So the more the dollar loses, the more the Europeans are actually paying for the same thing. Almost everything in Europe is usually much more expensive. There are two reasons, higher gas prices and VAT.

[Throgam]

Why, how much do we English/European people have to pay?

[MusikManLP7]

We still have to wait for the NDA to be lifted correct?

[Zaedred]

This is....a day of complete.....and total....awesomeness(I know not a good word, but who cares)! If I would express my true feelings right now I would probably disrupt many people in my insurance office.

*Tries not to freak out, and gets a large eating grin on face*

Anyone else notice in the announcement the:

"Universal Fighting System™ Battle Deck: The Emperor Karl Franz and Tchar’zanek, dread Champion of Tzeentch, go head-to-head in this exclusive collectible card game from Fantasy Flight Games. (Available in a limited supply from select retailers.) "

Colour me interested.

[Jeraf]

Come on, tell us the OB date already!

I forget the actual amount, but it's the equivalent to twenty American dollars.

To Unlucky: The card game looks "meh." Some nice art but probably something most people won't play.

Aha, now the real hype can begin. I'm going to assume that we will spend many hours on this site for the next month and a half.

This is fantastic news, although I must say, I really REALLY wish we had some inkling of when the open beta will be up, because I'm excited as hell for that.

[Gompers]

Wahoo! now what?
