Questions by Cody "Micajah" Bye (Managing Editor) and Garrett Fuller (Industry Relations)

Answers by Mark Jacobs (VP, GM Mythic Entertainment)

The launch of Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning has arguably been one of the smoothest game releases in MMOG history. With its combination of compelling RvR combat and PvE innovations, WAR is on a solid pace to hit a million subscriptions within the first two months of release. To give gamers an idea of what the Mythic Entertainment team has been working on, GM/VP Mark Jacobs released a "State of the Game" report, where he discussed a number of upcoming elements for the game, including the release of two of the four cut classes - the Black Guard and the Knight of the Blazing Sun - and a variety of improvements to Open RvR. As always, the Ten Ton Hammer staff quickly got on the phone with Mark about the changes and the details on what players really should expect from Mythic Entertainment.

In Part One of this two part interview, we talk with Mark about the addition of the two classes, the situation with crafting, and the upcoming alterations to RvR. Please enjoy!
