Default Question regarding purchasing warhammer online via the website.

Hey guys, im wanting to buy warhammer online via the website, but my old PC had alot of trouble leading me to reinstall windows, i was just wondering, if i buy warhammer online via the website, and my PC goes down and i have to reinstall everything, does that mean i will have to buy the game again?

thanks in advance.

Luke.

I assume your purchase will give you some sort of code or key that will allow you to register for an account. Once you create an account and add a subscription or game time (if necessary), it is there permanently.

If your computer goes down, then you can just download the client from any number of places for free. Your account will always be there.

Buy it over Steam if you don't get a definite answer because it will then be on your Steam account for good.

Usually when you are given the choice of buying a game off the internet, they give you some type of key or code that will allow you to register an account, since you can download the client off the website anyway.

If you buy it off steam, you'd still need an account code, right?

You'd register a Steam account, purchase it, and it should automatically register the key to that account so you can access it on whatever computer.

However I'm not sure how it works with WAR over Steam, because I don't think they offer game time so you'd have to;

- Buy and download off of Steam.
- Create a Mythic account and enter the code given by Steam to activate your 1-month trial.

Then you could access the game from Steam and download it/install it wherever, whenever as long as you were signed in. Then you could use your Mythic account to login to the game once you have it installed.

Okay that's fine, thanks, it's just my last PC was very unreliable.

I didn't want to download the game, my PC go down, and i loose the data, and have to spend another £30 or whatever to buy it again.
