Warhammer Online Collector's Edition Preview

[GameBanshee News]

WarCry is offering up an overview of what we should expect to find inside the newly announced Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning Collector's Edition.

It wouldn't be Warhammer without a miniature. The one included with the CE will be Gazbag and Grumlok, leaders of the Bloody Sun Boyz. Gazbag is a goblin shaman who rides on the shoulder of Grumlok the Orc, much like Master Blaster from the Mad Max movie-that-shall-not-be-named. Painting and assembly is required. But I'm sure fans of the franchise wouldn't have it any other way. There is a great deal of detail on the miniature, even down to the bones tied to the dwarf-beard cloak of Grumlok that act as the ladder for Gazbag to reach his perch. The miniature itself is quite heavy and if loaded into a slingshot would do considerable damage to a soft target. It's one of the heaviest figures Games Workshop has ever created.

Art BookThe in game content created especially for the CE will include 12 quests only available to owners of the CE. Each race will get 2 quests, one for RvR and one for PvE. They are not specific to race however, as any Order race can do all 6 for the Order races and vice versa for Destruction. For completing the quests you can earn exclusive items, trophies or other in game reward. A special title will be granted to CE owners that can be displayed next to their character name. Another in game item will be a cloak that can be equipped from the very start of the game. Usually a certain level must be attained before cloaks become available as wearable items. One of the Greenskin quests awards a severed Dwarf head that can be carried around; because that's what Da Boyz like to do.
