Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning is a MMORPG based on the Warhammer Fantasy universe. It is developed by Mythic Entertainment, the studio behind the popular MMORPG Dark Age of Camelot. The game's official acronym is WAR, standing for Warhammer Online : Age of Reckoning.

The central theme of the game revolves around the continual worldwide conflict most Warhammer settings are well known for, and almost every aspect of the game is geared towards omnipresent, constant war. Mythic uses their trademark Realm vs. Realm PvP system in WAR, which is the same system used in Dark Age of Camelot. The two alliances, Order and Destruction, are each be divided into 3 armies, and each army consists of three to four playable careers (classes).

Warhammer interviews, features, and video from TenTonHammer

The three armies of Order are the Empire, Dwarfs, and High Elves, and the three Destruction armies are Dark Elves, Greenskins (Orcs and Goblins), and Chaos. While each army is usually composed of one race, the Greenskins are composed of two, Orcs and Goblins; giving WAR seven playable races. However each army still only has three or four careers from which to choose. The Greenskins army will divides its careers, giving two to the Goblins and one to the Orcs.
