The only word that describes this is pimpin‘ (yes, this concept art is so awesome I can’t even include the ‘g’).

People have been confused with a number of issues regarding Condemned by Fire and the closed beta. It’s good to see Mythic has cleared up misconceptions:

Greetings all,

Below is a brief FAQ to help alleviate some questions concerning the beta promotion included with BOOM! Studios’ Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning comic: Condemned By Fire.

Do I still have to register my code by May 31st in order to qualify for the beta contest?

The deadline has been extended to June 14th in order to enter your code.

How do I register multiple keys on the same Beta Center account?

As stated we only allow one key per Beta Center Account.

What phase of beta are the winners given access to?

Winners will be invited to CLOSED beta.

Thank you,

The Community Team

I was especially worried about the whole closed/open beta confusion, so it’s great to see I still have my chance to get into closed. I’m also relieved that I didn’t order 5 copies of Condemned by Fire.

Not only have Mythic released some new screenshots, they’ve released new screenshots of the Goblin Shaman! Why does that matter? Well it’s the class I’ll be playing at launch and there’s been a lack of good Shaman-content (they look as awesome as expected by the way).

Check out the new screenshots @ tentonhammer.com

Hallelujah! I came home today with an average looking piece of mail on my desk. I’ve been ordering so much stuff lately that I had no idea what it was. To my enjoyment it was the Condemned by Fire graphic novel, beta code and all. Just seconds ago I inputted my code and now have my first association which will hopefully get me picked for the beta.

First off I would like to introduce myself, you all will know me as Vindictus. I’m a new writer here and can’t wait to share the latest news on Warhammer. And now, The news…

Well, I checked up on the Warhammer Online website to check for new….news? Anyway, it turns out they have finally released some new screenshots, and these guys look like they mean business. Seriously, there are multiple character, or what look like character shots and some NPC’s, One of which i assume will be a boss, looks like a greater demon of nurgle. A huge demon of Khorn i can only assume, a Black Orc taking on some Imperialists, and I’ve got to say, I don’t think those two little mannlings stand a chance against that dude. A peak at Altdorf, even if it IS burning. My favorite screenshot has to be the second on the gallery. It’s a picture of a bright wizard chilling out in a chaos city, with a huge minotaur and a massive, seriously gigantic demon, so big, you can only see his knee-caps, but the best part about this is the fact he is just standing there, like he has every right to be standing in the middle of a massive chaos city.

Snafzg sure took his damn time with his latest comic (sorry, just epically failed in Age of Conan and I’m a bit titchy). Check out his latest work of art by clicking here. Hmmm, everyone seems to have their own comic these days, I’m thinking I should do one….maybe when I buy a new graphics tablet.

Not sure if this is old news, but today I just got the email from Boom Studios saying my copy of Condemned by Fire has shipped. Good to hear.

Thank you for your recent purchase from BOOM! Studios. This email has been sent to let you know that your order has just shipped.

Thanks for shopping at BOOM! Studios. We hope to hear from you again real soon!

I only ordered a single copy as I was told they don’t stack…that better be true.

Was just listening to episode #1 of “Podcast of Reckoning” (yeah, I know, a bit late) and with all the mentioning of fan sites I just realized how little I’ve done to try and connect with other fan site owners. What do I do? Email them? Instant message them? Hell no, I draw a cartoon in a shallow link bait attempt!

Note: I didn’t mean to make the fansite greenskins look so retarded (and sorry for the non-political correctness on that word). You may also notice my attention to detail with the headphones on the “Warhamma Greenskin”.

Although, it was pretty cool that warhammergamers.com was mentioned in the podcast, even though just in passing.

Another great comic by Rory - check it out…now!

I know what you’re asking yourselves; ‘Two comics in two weeks is he crazy?’ Yes I’ve gone mad! And I guarantee a new strip next Monday! ( *however I can make no assurances that any humor may be evident in these strips.) After that the future becomes murky again.

  In just a couple of weeks everyone will have their copy of Condemned by Fire and will be entering their codes into their beta center account, hopefully awaiting the good news. Snafzg from The Greenskin is now the luckiest blogger for Warhammer Online having received the comic to review, and he was even allowed to include a five-page "sneak peek".

I previously ordered my 5 copies of the comic ("graphic novel") but decided to cancel as I wasn’t too eager to get into the closed beta, still considering picking just one up though as I the last graphic novel I got was 300 and I loved it (This..is..Spaaarta!).
