So I came across theses pictures on WAR's old but official facebook page:

(You can see the rest on the facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/officialwarham ... ne?fref=ts )

These armor sets made me wonder: Have these armor sets ever been implemented during WAR's lifespan or are they hidden away in the code. If the latter, can they be implemented to the private server in the future?

What do you guys think?

These were Tier 7 armors that were being designed a couple of years before shutdown. I do not remember how they wanted to implement them. I think most of the discussion of these armor sets was on the twitter page but everything was deleted right after shutdown and still gets deleted on a semi-regular basis. I would be interested to see the other missing capital cities one day as well, if Carrie was to be believed in her farewell comments Dwarf and Orc capital cities were almost complete.

they were probably designed to be rr 110/120 or so sets, also each and i mean all icon of these armor sets can be found in icon pack that dev relase for help fixing the armory database, so it possible that they are alredy inside dev package, so hope for future

Look how terrible the High Elf set looks.

Some forms of discrimination never changed.

the icons show ingame but when you equip the item no armor is shown on the char so either the client doesnt have the models or the models are not linked right to the model id

It wouldn't be terribly hard to make the models should the need ever arise. I have a few years of Maya and 3Dstudio experience if you ever need anything whipped up :)

As far as i remember, this armors should only be available to high renown ranks. The original plan by mythic was, that they could only be of use as textures with the "alternate appereance" feature, as they have no stats on it.

Edit: i find them ugly and i don't think that the person who created them has any experience in the warhammer lore. They would fit better in one of these eastern mmos...
