Lol so the WAR world almost exactly resembles the real world? Ofcourse its nothing new if your familiar with Warhammer, but for people that are just getting here for the MMO are going to have an eyebrow raised. Im sorry but im going to have to make some light comedy out of this

Well first... it appears that the Dark Elves are Canadians? I guess that could work, if you change Black Arks to Iceburgs and Black Guards to Lumberjacks. "3 splits of wood, no more or no less!!!".

So the Empire is Germanics/eastern europeans, and Chaos would have to be the Dutch
and the Irish... surprised Tzeentch is the one they worship lol

And it looks like Dwarves must be the Israelie's and the Greenskins can be Muslims? I have nothing but good things to say about those countries and peoples in general. But besides the point, everyone knows that Dwarves in Warhammer are short, have long beards and are obsessed with treasure, and that Greenskins are, well, shear bloody minded violence.

But seriously does anybody know why they really decided to resemble the Warhammer fantasy world with the real world? Are they trying to cut the real world into different shades of itself, or is it just purely for the nostalgia value?
