            No Dark elf mounts yet, though. And, Dwarf Beer Truck FTW!

    I almost wish I was rolling Destruction, but it's good to see they're sticking to lore. The high elf mounts look pretty good as well, it will be interesting to see what they look like when they go from concept to in game.

    All those mounts look pretty damn good, lets hope they all make it to the retail version looking the same way. Well, close as they can be once in the game.

    i think the dwarf mount looks dumb as hell. I am pretty sure that my DE mount is going to look sweet. Riding into the exterior of a battle as a black guard looking to smash faces. this game is going to be insane.

    Hell yes!!!

    Man imagine if this could have multipassengers... what would be scarier on the battlefield than seeing the Dwarf Beer Truck screeching its way towards you with angry drunken Dwarfs hanging on the sides tapping beer bongs.

    EDIT: Just a thought from looking at the concept art.  Trophy System for mounts?

    I thought that at first but the dawrf mount but it's growing on me. In Warhammer lore the dwarfs are a bit like gnomes in that they build lots of weird stuff so it makes sense they'd have that.

    I'm kind of disappointed the goblin mounts aren't squigs though even if they do look like space hoppers with legs. Actually seeing a squig vs beer truck battle would be comedy gold.

    I'm pretty sure that Goblins ride Wolves and not Squigs because that's how it is in the table-top game. However, in the table-top, there are Night Goblins who ride Squigs..

  • MaelignMaelign Member Posts: 15

    Hmm, Chaos horse not evil enough, needs about... 30% more evil.

    The mounts are looking great so far, I do also hope they stay true to the concept art.  I would look forward to the ability to ride that war wolf too.

    The dwarf mount is inconceivably awesome, although my favorite is a toss up between the Orc and Chaos mounts. I'll still be playing Empire though, which looks pretty good in its own right.

    Ale-powered mount?! 

    ALE-POWERED MOUNT?! 

    Oh for god sakes, no!  They're gonna drink the FUEL!

    A look at mounts can also be found here, on the Only-WAR.com main page.

    only-war.com/

    Scroll down to the newsletter and you will see the exclusive pix of mounts.

    They come in Light, Medium and Heavy varieties.

      <--- Yo, I got ale for the mount!  Fill'er up?  Check the nachos?

    The mounts look absolutely awsome.  Have we heard any information as to when (in game) we can expect to see our character on a mount?  Also there has been rumors pointing to the possibility of mounted combat in the game.  Sounds exciting

  • CzzarreCzzarre Member, Newbie CommonPosts: 3,742

    The most recent Newsletter shows 12 or so mounts. Oh yes, they will be there.

    Honestly, from now on I think all MMORPGs will have mounts

    LOL. All the order mounts look like they're for ponces. Also in regards to the orc mount, zelda twilight princess anyone?

    The Greenskin mounts are from the table top game. That has been out forever.

  • aionownsaionowns Member Posts: 175

    no i think the best looking mount will be the dark elf mount hands down.

    You're probably right. I was more of a 40K player so I'm not 100% accurate with my Warhammer lore. Ok if mounts come in three varieties I wonder if the dwarf one shown is light, medium or heavy. If it's light imagine what the heavy model would look like

    The mounts are freakin awesome !

     

    And for all you who didn´t know what makes the Warhammer IP: The Dwarf mount has WARHAMMER immersion writen all over it. This kind of stuff defines Warhammer dwarves.

    Personally I just can't wait to see what the dwarf siege engines look like when/if they're in game.

    Also, flying mount idea:

    Kinda looks like it, that'd be pretty sweet if they added that for it.

    Bollocks!

    And forest goblins that ride spiders!

     

     

    Dark elf mounts will be the coolest, because they have cold ones! (dinosaurs > everything)

    I think the dwarf mount looks kind of cool but on the other hand you won't catch my toon on one in a million years because I'd feel silly, lol. 

  • ShaludShalud Member Posts: 45

    The art of the mounts looks incredibly cool, some of the best mounts of any game.   However that isn't ingame appearance, that's where the truth "lies"

  • FerusaFerusa Member Posts: 211

    Those look pretty sweet. Does anyone here know if mounted combat is still being implemented? And also, are flying mounts going to be at launch? I see alot of talk about them, but I don't remember hearing anything like that.

    Though we have heard of stupid haste in war, cleverness has never been seen associated with long delays.
