If you're one of the dedicated Warhammer Online players, eager to get your hands on some of the announced upcoming content, well, let's just say that you won't have to wait much longer. Patch 1.0.6 is set to hit servers as soon as later today!
The update you've all been waiting for, 1.0.6, is almost here! We wanted to thank everyone who tested and provided feedback on this update's content. On Tuesday, 12/2/08 all servers will be brought offline to begin the update. North American servers will be brought down at 6:30AM EST with Oceanic servers to follow at 9:00AM EST.
This is the title's first extra-large content pack, and it comes with a vast amount of changes for almost all of the available careers, enough to allow most users to reassign their skill points upon their next login. Aside from an equally important amount of improvements to the engine and interface, two other extra-exciting additions have been made.
Players will now be able to chose from two more career paths, either as an Imperial Knight of the Blazing Sun, or as one of the Dark Elves' Black Guards. What can I say other than, I'm actually tempted to go back for another session with Mythic's MMORPG crown contender. Make your way to the Warhammer Herald for the insanely large changelog, which they had to divide in two parts.

The new classes are here? Hmm... Time to reinstall, perhaps?
Nice timing, too, with Amazon selling WAR for $11 the last week and a half.
