The next phase of the WAR Beta is up and running, and Senior Producer, Jeff Hickman, and Creative Director, Paul Barnett, have an extra special welcome back video for the troops. It's a bit on the long side (these guys love to hear themselves talk!), but this video is entertaining as hell and packed with all kinds of great information about the game. If you are at all curious about what the team has been doing for the past couple of months and want to know what new features they have put in the game, this is a must watch!

"Witch Elves go around with their scantily clad armor and their enormous hair and their nasty daggers, and they sneak up on people. They use potions, they use lotions, they use powders, and they use poisons. They imbibe crazy fumes and noxious joy, and that sends them into a furious craziness that allows them to dance around and slaughter people. They're brides of Khaine, they are covered in blood, and they've got big hair. They look really sexy and they are incredibly dangerous. They would be on the front cover of every 1980's rock album there ever was!"

"The Black Guard is the embodiment of brutish, shear bloody-minded violence. They are encased in phenomenal amounts of armor and wield the biggest, evilest, bad*** weapons they can find. Their job is to find the enemy and kill 'em. They are basically very, very dangerous, really hard to kill, and when they get close to you they deal out tons of damage. The more they hate you, the more damage and misery they will pile upon you. And you know what? They hate everybody, all the time, forever!"

"Swordmasters are, well, masters of swords. They are proto-Jedi. They are so over-the-top in the way they have learned to use their swords that they basically do dances - sword dances - that allows them to build up energy and build up super brilliant attacks. They are all about doing an awful lot of damage very, very quickly and using show-offy little bits of magic to show how super cool they really are."

"The Archmage is spell casting madness gone bananas. Like everything the High Elves do, they are the best at it, no matter what. Thus the Archmage is not just good at magic; they are super good at magic. This is a Healer / Caster. To be good at his job, the Archmage must taste combat, draw in Chaos energy, control it, then fire it back at the enemy or mold it into positive magic to unleash on his allies."
- Paul Barnett.

This month, we bring you some stunning in-game screens of the lighting model in action. Take a look at the dramatic difference lighting can make in these "before and after" images.

During Beta we run into all kinds of little bugs, but we just had to share this one with you. The cows just wanted a nice bite of grass, but every time they took one, fiery death reigned down from above. Hope you like your burgers well done!

We'd like to thank everyone that turned up at the recent Baltimore Games Day to see WAR in action. We hope you had as much fun as we did. For those of you that were unable to attend the event, you certainly missed a great show. However, we've got video of Jeff and Paul's Q&A session, as well as photos from the event, the share with you. It's almost like being there... except for getting a beta invite and a buzz from all the fresh paint.

As a follow-up to last month's Quest Podcast, we offer this video of the month as proof that despite his tendency for hyperbole, Paul was telling the absolute truth about how insanely cool the Public Quests are.

This month, we have a short video to share with you that was created as a placeholder login screen for our pre-beta build. The reason we are so excited about this clip is that it shows, for the first time, what we'll be able to do in the game with our new lighting tool. All of the great images you have seen of the game to date have been without proper lighting. Now that the tool is done, the art team has started lighting the world and we'll be rolling out new images as early as next month. Wait until you see what a dramatic difference it makes!
