WHERE DO WE COME FROM?

What exactly is a warmonger? As of late this phrase has been being dropped left and right, most having no idea what exactly people are speaking of. A warmonger is a peddler or seller of war.
The original plan was to form a guild for Warhammer Online well in advance of the release. While waiting for release we got the chance to play other games together, as well as alpha and beta test a few games together. We finally got to beta test Warhammer Online. Needless to say, the launch of Warhammer was not what it could have been and after many months The WarMongers in WAR kind of dried up. Now for many guilds, this would be the end of the story, but not for us. The WarMongers continue to actively hang out and game. We still test new games and we have more MMOs we're looking at for the future. We're not completely done in WAR, some of us are just too die hard, so we will be trying to grow there as well. But we will be recruiting for the upcoming MMOs as well.
If I was asked to describe the WarMongers I would say we're an alliance of gamers and blah, blah, blah. It's hogwash. We been together too many months and we're like family. Just not like normal families. Freak shows pay money to see us because we are exotic. Our Women of the WarMongers say things that make truckers blush. I think about all my guild mates, and there ain't one of us right in the head. We're running 60/40 casual to hardcore mix for better horsepower. We've got high school students through grad students. Models and television producers, stock brokers and shelf stockers, community developers and people helping developing countries, military wo/men, pro gamers, game programmers and I think one serial killer. But we all love each other...like 3rd cousins so it's legal, I think.
On a more serious note, we have been helping out with charity since we were founded. We have just broken over $35,000 in charitable help. We also wrapped up a bunch of stuff for Autism last month. You can even help out too as we have affiliate status with a few companies that donate a percentage to charity with every sale. Stores like Newegg, Amazon, RefurbDepot, HostMonster, Pinnacle Video systems, GameStop/EB Games, Blockbuster Video, Compuvest, Cafepress, and GoDaddy. Every purchase pays out 3% or more of the purchase price to charity. Buy a new gaming rig and help cure cancer, or save a flood victim. Your parents won't even get mad you used their credit card. Talk about win-win. We also have a secret charity project we hope to unveil at the time of WAR’s launch. Keep your eyes peeled.
Anyways, feel free to sign up if you think you got what it takes to be part of our nut house. You might surprise yourself and make it.
Did I mention we are sexy?
