Warhammer Online: Return of Reckoning has two factions: Order and Destruction. Each faction contains three separate armies, each of which is further broken down into four career choices. Each of the careers (classes) in Warhammer Online conform to an archetype role. Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning (officially abbreviated as WAR) was a massively multiplayer online role-playing game based on Games Workshop's Warhammer Fantasy setting. It was developed by Mythic Entertainment and was simultaneously released in North and South America, Europe, Asia, Australia and New Zealand on September 18, 2008.
Warhammer Online Private Server
This is for the Private server Warhammer Online as the live sever was shut down many years ago
Warhammer Online: The Age of Reckoning, is Mythic Entertainment's contribution to the still growing MMORPG genre based in the Warhammer universe.
Warhammer Online boasts a robust PvP system with many character classes unique to the universe as well. These include Ironbreakers, Black Orcs, Chosen, Disciple of Khaine, Marauders, and more.
While most of the content is available through PvP (or RvR, 'Realm versus Realm') gameplay, Warhammer Online also boasts PvE experiences including public quests, raid instances, and more. There are also world events that occur from time to time where players can participate for status and loot. The 'Heavy Metal' event was one that took place over many days.
Players can choose to level independently in PvE or PvP, the later of which involves running instanced PvP scenarios, or can occur in the overworld in common areas. There are a variety of servers as well, including those with the standard rule sets, but also those where PvP is allowed anywhere in the world. No place is safe here!
Warhammer Online also features a new concept - public quests. This enables large numbers of players to involve themselves with PvE raids without having to hassle much with organizing ambitious raid parties. Players can jump in or leave at anytime and are rewarded based upon their level of participation.
The game is based in Warhammer's original 'Age of Reckoning' world.
What is Return of Reckoning?
Return of Reckoning is a continuation of Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning with balance changes and additional content.
Since the announcement that the official servers would be shut down on 18th December 2013[1], people started to archive data in the form of network packets in the hope that the game could be restored. In Janurary 2014 work started on what would later become Return of Reckoning. Return of Reckoning is a reimplementation of the Warhammer Online protocol, meaning that none of the original games server code was used.
At that time, Dyox was the main developer. In the course of time he decided to make his own private server called The Warhammer Online Private Server. He worked only with a small team and closed source.
After a few months, he realized that he doesn't have enough time and motivation to continue. That's the reason he closed his server and published his source code.
And here comes War-Emu!
While Dyox was working on his own private server, a small team continued to work on the open source emu.
Dyox published source code was added to the open source emu the War-Emu team was working on.
Warhammer Online Return Of Reckoning Forum
Return of Reckoning was born: a War-Emu private server.
Why?
While each of the people on the development team have their own reason for doing what they do. We believe that Warhammer Online is a fantastic game that people should be able to experience and we aim to continue to allow people to play.
The aim of this server is to show that War-Emu works.
While we have implemented a majority of the features of the original game we still continue to develop and improve our servers. During the development cycle bugs may manifest but you can easily report them on our Bugtracker.
We the War-Emu team want to unit all Warhammer Online Players in one private server. We will keep this project and our favourite game alive!
