GGL Wire - RvR Preview from E for All

GGL Wire sits down to talk with EA's Josh Drescher to talk about WAR at E for All 07.

At E for All expo I got another chance to look at Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning, EA/Mythic's upcoming MMORPG based on the Warhammer series of miniatures wargames. I last checked out the title, which has been in closed beta for about a year, at E3 2006.

Playing the demo, I felt the game looks and feels a great deal like World of Warcraft, which at this stage in the evolution of the MMORPG is praise rather than a criticism. But it's the ways that WOAR differs from WoW, and takes cues from its origins as a tabletop wargame, that interests me.

I sat down with EA's Josh Drescher to discuss WOAR's genuinely innovative Realm vs. Realm combat system.
