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.

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.

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!).

Check out Snafzg’s full write up at The Greenskin.

I’ve enjoyed Rory’s work in the past with Secret Lives of Mobs, but have never kept track of it properly. I’m now proud to say the feed is in my Google Reader, and I will now report on every new comic posted…they’re just too good (both in concept and execution) to not give a shout out too.
