Howdy, folks!
Today, we’re going to be taking a look at the admittedly rather old (but much improved) Warhammer Online as it nears its 1-year anniversary. The Warhammer Fantasy (and Warhammer 40k) IP has had a lasting influence on the video games industry, inspiring several other notable products, so it’s interesting to see how the MMORPG version of the original turned out. Well, let’s not waste any more time; onto the review!

So, it’s finally happened. Games Workshop has given Vassal40k their final cease-and-desist order. You may remember that I interviewed Tim Davis, Vassal40k’s head honcho, back in June.

That being said, there are some ways that you can express your displeasure and offer your support.

The name “Warhammer” is pretty big these days, having been made into a bunch of RTS games and even an MMO, but some of you youngsters may be unaware of the origins of this beloved IP.

Why are we mentioning this on a video game blog, you ask? Well that’s where Vassal40k comes in.
