Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning - Image 1 


Clipsco Ocspilc of The Game Musketeer summarized details of the sides of the Empire and Chaos in a conference with Executive Producer Jeff Hickman and Creative Director Paul Bartnett of Mythic Entertainment. The conference also included Josh Dresher, World Aspiring Genius. The conference was called to differentiate the two sides and give details of each.

Just like the tabletop, conflict in the Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning universe is a battle between good and evil split among realms. There are elven, dwarven and human realms, each having two sides. The Chaos and Empire are two sides of the human realm.

The Empire represents the side of humanity that is struggling to survive in the Warhammer world, beset by conflict, darkness and evil. They are a society reminiscent of Medieval Germanic-slash-European appearances and style.

Chaos, in contrast, are the side of humanity already affected by the growing evil in the land. They have been twisted by Chaos itself, and in their insanity and blindness, they strike terror into anyone who has yet to be afflicted by the evil within them.

The Empire career path give you special characters to handle, including the Witch Hunter, Bright Wizards of Fire Magic, Warrior Priest of Sigmar of healing and faith, and Knights of the Blazing Sun. The path to Chaos allows you to be a Marauder, a heavily armored Chaos Knight, healing and light weapon-wielding Zealots, and Magus Sorcerers, masters of Chaotic magicks.
