EA Mythic has made good on its promise from earlier this month where they said they would be releasing some "Big" news later in the month....Well this is pretty big!
From Warhammer Online:
Today we issued a Call to Arms to all
players of WAR with the announcement of the first live expansion for
Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning. Call to Arms will introduce an
incredible array of new content to the game, including two highly
anticipated new careers - the head bashin' Orc Choppa and the
oath-sworn Dwarf Slayer - and a new dungeon zone called Land of the Dead, set in the desert realm of the Tomb Kings.
The Call to Arms live expansion, set to roll out for free over the next
few months, will also include three in-game live events, a new RvR
Scenario, added functionality to the Realm Wars section of the WAR
website, the opening of the official WAR Forums, and a new free trial
version of the game.
