Warhammer Age of Reckoning in Aspic

So, I've been looking around the internet for old Witch Elf content using the Wayback Machine. More info on it here:https://archive.org/about/

This just takes a snapshot of sites at various points in time and archives them meaning that although a site may have changed or perhaps no longer exists you can go back to various states of it when it was archived. Recently, I came across archives for the old official Warhammer AoR site so posting the link here as it may be of use to the community/devs. This snapshot was November 2013 but you can choose different snapshot dates for different iterations of the site, so potentially game clients from different dates can be pulled, which may be a benefit to the devs. Haven't checked that just yet, just the 1.4.85 client

Just a note, the site restricts you to viewing so many pages in a session and then locks out your ip for 5 minutes if you go over that, so worthwhile opening in your own browser session and maybe not re-directing directly from this site.

Unfortunately, the community section, which would have been a bit of a gold mine, as it would have contained all the bugtracker posts for the devs, doesn't look like its accessible right now as it was held on a different server and had a language challenge page which presumably the crawlers could not get beyond. I'll keep digging on that.

Whats is still avaiable is interesting including the dev diaries, patch notes, developer podcasts etc, media and artwork, guides and surprisingly you can still download the original client from the archive.

Thought i would just pull this out specifically for any new players. This is the Warhammer Starter Manual. Of course it may not be 100% as AoR and not Ror but a good start.

Just noticed the archive doesn't work too well if you access from mobile devices that don't have flash capability i.e. iphones/ipads, whereas if you open from a normal pc browser such as Google Chrome (doesn't like IE) you get the full menu options and you can interact with it like any other normal website, albeit with some broken links noted above.
