Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

If World of Warcraft, a game to which Warhammer Online: Ageof Reckoning owes something of a debt, is a multi-faceted fantasy world that is dangerously easily to lose oneself, its rival is all about battle, pure and simple.

And because in life you can’t have a decent fight on your own, it’s other people that make this massive multiplayer war game so splendidly involving, absorbing and downright addictive. It’s not all good news, though, as myriad classes and inflexible elements make gameplay less smooth than it might be. But overlook that and this game will give you the chance to be part of a vast and glorious army.
