The BIGGEST issue with WAR is that the population of the game is spread too thin between the servers in WAR EU, thankfully GoA are finally pulling their finger out next week and merging 9 servers into 2, before the doomsayers kick in and say 'THIS IS THE FIRST SIGN THE GAME IS DEAD' please can i point out theres about 50 servers over here for a two month old game, this NEEDS to happen for a game that needs the high populated servers for the RVR.

Like I said theres only that issue of lack of players on the server to do stuff really, yea the bugs are annoying, the class balancing act has been delayed (good sign btw - shows Mythic listened to our issues with the 'healing nerf', now are testing the whole system without the 'nerf' for 1.06 ), but the main thing is the populution needs crustering from 50 servers to about 20 THATS finally happening.

For a 2 month old game facving off between two games expantions WAR is still doing well, all those heading back to MoM and WotLK, just pop back after Christmas when the final classes have been put back in (or new in the case of the Dwarf Slayers woot) and 1.1 hits, it's still got a lot of growing pains to go thru but at least this game isn't broken beond repaire. WAR is still a good alt choice.

Bring on the WARRRRGGHH!

In the 1.05 notes (now 1.06) it stated Iron Breakers will be able to use Dwarf Hammers, seeing as both the Hammerer and Iron Breaker have simular looks, theres nothing in WHF lore that could replace the Choppa (seeing as it was one or the other that was getting the change), and the fact that the Slayer is pritty much one of the two iconical characters you can have in Dwarf armies (the Runepriest being the other)...

It's pritty much a given now it's going to be Slayers replacing Hammerers

Bring on the WARRRRGGHH!

Yes & in 12 months you might finally have given up whining about it on every single thread.
