The is NOT MARK OF CHAOS, Khorne is NOT playable

Distortion0 · August 2006

There's been some confusion I'd like to clear up. This is Warhamer: AGE OF RECONING, not MARK OF CHAOS. Here is the correct trailer and website for this game:

This is the correct trailer(There's probably a version with better resolutions)

This is the correct website(You should read it, it'll answer most of your questions)

And this is what the game looks like

To show you what the game ISN'T

NOT the correct trailer

NOT the correct website

NOT the correct screen shots(If it was WAR and not MoC, then the screens would be in first personish perspective and the figures would be much bigger)

Also, Khorne is not playing in WAR. His followers will be NPCs only for now. This is what Mythic has said, this is what Mythic has done so far. Please do not argue your crazy conspiracy theories about how the other gods are secretly in the game here.

Also, please don't assume a Chaos Person is following Khorne just because they have bulky armor and a sword. Most Chaos Units have bulky armor and big swords(Even Slannish and Nurgle's), if the were follows of Khrone, they'de most likely be wearing alot of red.

Sadly this is easily confusing people for some reason...

I still say even if Khrone is not playable in WAR I'm going to be his follower.

And Maybe one day we can play as a true Khrone followers. BTW Thats like the only thing that kinda sucks about khrone its no matter what you're in red.

Yeah, I'd rather Khrone than Tzeenth too. I think Mythic wanted a good introductory god for newcomers though and you have to admit, Tzeenth does that well. Hopefully they'll have Armor Painting though so you can look the part.

not that i am the greatest chaos follower but.. GO NURGLE!!!!11
i have always seen nurgle=chaos.
what is chaos? its mutation thats what it is, and what is a mutation normally? :P
an ILLNESS - like in Nurgle, demigod of sickness and raging football fans, if i recall.

OMG! I've totally agree.. I had one question... Which I still hope they do.

Well, I got to ask... Cause I'm difficult that way. Will you be
able to have the option of changing the colors of your armor and things
like that to have a custom color scheme. *I think this would be kinda
difficult in a game like this, but one can hope* Or... Maybe if you
make a guild... People sapport the colors of the guild on their armor.
I just don't know and I really do like the custom color scheme you can
make in the game (table top). I don't know if this was asked before,
but hell you know in DoW the army painter was pretty fun in itself too.

Took me like a minute to find my old post.

thank you, i think alot of people need clarification that mark of chaos, and warhammer online are two different games.
however i am positive that there WILL be Khorn, Nurgle, Slaneesh and Tzeentch orientated Chaos players, the developers have stated that the chaos v human lands are thus far, not in production yet, meanng they have not yet been made, only talked about.

they are focusing upon the ork V dwarf areas, then either elf v dark elf, or chaos v human, and the last pairing after that.

Khorn, being the blood god of chaos, is BOUND to be the god that the warrior class worships in the chaos classes.

they plan to have four classes per 'race'

for the orks it will be the shaman, black ork, berzerker, and goblin squig hearder

basicly, a mage/healer, a tank, a melee damage dealer (often a rogue in other games such as WoW for instence) and a pet/caster hybrid class.

the last class i expect is a more race spesfic kinda thing

now for chaos, i predict there will be a warrior class, a healer class, a mage class, and a rogue class
respectivly, a Khorn worshipper, a Slaneessh worshipper, a Tzeentch worshipper and a nurgle worshipper.

Khorn being the god of blood and slaughter, good for warriors

Slaneesh being the eldar awoken chaos god of pleasure and pain, good for a healer class that perhaps debuffs the enemies?

Tzeentch being the chaos god of arcane and magic, duuh.. mages.

and Nurgle being the god of death and disease, a poison based rogue class is something i see a potential for

how come none can spell the blood god's name?

Because they aren't Khorne's followers.

What about Khorne hounds master? Slaneesh warriors? Tzeentch warriors? Nurgle warriors?

Nope, sorry bud. Mythic said Tzeentch and Tzeentch only and as far as playable goes Mythic has done Tzeentch and done Tzeentch only. Tzeentch Warrior, Tzeentch Mages, Tzeentch Healer-Mages, No Rouges at all(another things Mythic has said.) Although, Khorn Blood Hounds are confirmed in the game as monsters via concept art.

zollen · August 2006

I so want to be a chosen Nurgle warrior. Swinging my diease filled mace against my enemies. Hitting them with blunt damage along with a nurgle pot degen....

Any info about muaraders or muarader horsemen?

sjona · August 2006

Zollen, they have actual said the chaos you'd be playing, if you choose chaos, will be the barbarians from the north(if i read correct), so i guess there will be a whole lot of marauders :P

kaikai · August 2006

Distortion0, Darn it, no Khorne? (im kinda ashamed i spelt it with no E

)

at all !?

gah.

that kinda blows, but at least tzeentch has a good symbol

my assumption was the 'bets of the best' motive.
the Khorneate warriors are the most vicious and blood thirsty,
the Tzeentch mages are the most powerfull ect.

you know what.. i wish there was NO direct god worship in War now, all the talk about sub skills and stuff like that.. i think you should be able to pick your god from there, and the god would grant you powers as you chose more skills from the subtrees of god gifts (aka skills)

so a nurgle warrior could get stuff that adds extra hp or DoT attacks, while a Khorne warrior could enter berzerker rages where he deals more damage but has a lower defence. or something..

more power of choice for the players!
its not hard anyway, the chaos NPCs could just praise all four chaos gods or just praise'Chaos' 'For Chaos' ect rather than everyone waving the Tzeentch fan banner.

Here is my idea class advancement tree:

marauder -> marauder chieftain
             |-> chaos warrior --> chaos warrior champion
                                   |-> chaos knight --> chaos knight champion
                                                         |
Sorcerer -> Exalted Sorcerer------------------------> Aspiring Champion -> Exalted Chamption -> Lord of Chaos -----

---> Daemon Price

hmmm, Tzeech is the chaos god that has found a champion and is raising the army, that is why you, his faithful follower follows no other, you are the crazed barbarian that joined his army, you worship Tzeech. The other chaos cahracters taht worship the other three gods are npc's, even though you can worship another chaos god, in a roleplaying perspective that wouldn't make sense,a follower of khorne would not join an army of tzeech unless the gods made a pact,which tzeech is known for. So warriors ,mages,healers. Follower Tzeech. If all four gods were in the game, they would each have a seperate army of followers which would pounce on the world, a battle of this size would be massive and the order of good would be dangling from a thread, luckily the chaos gods rarely see eye to eye. This is why Tzeech is in the game. And kaika's idea for the different god abilities are good, but that is not how the chaos gods work and GW would never allow. The army forming under Tzeech banner arent the only chaos humans, tehre are many more in the world who do worhsip the other gods and do not partake in the bloodlust unless thier guard is involved, this would show disloyality.

interesting idea but i havent heard anything about advancement progression like that.
usally i prefer games where you pick your class and stay with it the entire time, with the side skills that interviews have mentiond, they plan to let players pick the sub skills they want,m while having a few core ones that everyone from that class has, they dont want the entire game to be cookie cutter.

its more chaos lords who make the alliences, and while yes chaos fight
amoungst themselves ALOT, but they chaos gods have been known in both
warhammer AND warhammer 40k, to work together.

they have even gone so far as to pick one chaos lord to recive the
blessings of all FOUR gods. and have done so on more than one occasion.

Horus the betrayer from Warhammer40k is a good example of it.

so while yes i agree its hard for chaos to work together, its very
silly to say that it is not how the chaos gods work, after all, Chaos
is not law, chaos is chaotic, they are JUST as likly to ally with each
other as fight each other.

a good chaos lord would recrute followers from every group, or even worship multiple chaos gods.

Can you link the Corn warriors screenshots please? tks Just kidding.

Does anyone else think the that chaos is just going to be human? I mean without mutations and such.
I don't know that much about the lore, but my understanding was you are "blessed" if you get a mutation or three.
It would be kind of cool, if the "higher" level you get, the more mutation you get.

well the orks get bigger and have heads to stick on spikes on their shoulders and ebards of dwarves to stick on their belts and such.

i would assume that chaos get some 'chaos gifts' like that muations at least once or twice if you want them,

Gorukha · August 2006

I think the lithe assasin type would not be Nurgle but a Slaneesh follower. To dumb it all down into rpg terms
Slaneesh - Agility and or DEX / Nurgle - Con / Tzeench- INT / Khorne - Strength I hate spelling these things

Shayde · August 2006

That's what expansions are for baby.

Blood for the Blood God and all.

P.S... the Chaos Warrior that WTFSlaughtered the humie DID look very Khorneish. Red coloration leans that way. Remember, there's STILL time for the devs to change course here.

The whole armor reminded me way more of Tzeentch, than Khorne. No skulls? Bleh!
The redish tint probaly comes from the light source(In this case, burning stuff).

Besides, Khorne is so.. Plaine. They're not interresting! No magic, just fight and bash 'dem skulls.
The fact that Khorne dislike magic, proves strongly against them being implented as the Chaos race in WAR.
