After a long day in Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning, one builds up a big Orcish thirst. The best way to quench said thirst? Drinking your beverage of choice (mead, ale, blood, etc.) from an officially licensed WAR stein.

Those lager or Mountain Dew-holding steins can be pre-purchased as of right now, one in Order of the Griffon design, another in The Raven Host design, each designed by Warhammer Online artists Michael Phillippi and Eric Polak. Individually, they're just $99.99 USD, but can be bundled in the Epic Combo for a completely reasonable $179.99 USD.

If you want something a little fancier, opt for the "Legendary" versions of each. These 32 ounce stoneware steins feature an 18k gold-plated lid plus hand-painted gold trim, weighing in at an impressive 2.75 pounds. The Legendary upgrade will set you back $159.99 USD each if you pre-order, $299 USD if you bundle 'em. They're limited to 500 each and will ship to thirsty Warhammer fans in May.

Go on. Drink up, Warhammer-style!

haha sweeet..... exspense.

**Necros**

Are those dishwasher safe?

**avantgarde**

Who would pay $160 or even $100 for a stupid overdecorated cup?

Oh, right.

**Alex Kolodotschko**

Those ought to look just great on my Sultan Gaming Table.

**insaniak**

Nicely done, but a little pricey for my taste...

**Kanluwen**

I wonder if you can knock someone out with them.

There, fixed it for you.

**Ozymandias**

I paid about this much each for my two steins from Germany so the price isn't unreasonable for a beer stein of this quality.

Whether it's worth it for a drinking vessel is a decision each of us can make on our own.

Still, pretty freakin sweet!

**Blokus**

Those look amazing. Yes I would drink out of mine.

**Daggermaw**

Maybe they can take the money they make off these stupid cups to actually make WAR good?

You know like giving us back the 1/3 of the game they took out right before launch.

**Blokus**

Maybe they can scrap that crappy game WAR and make race specific steins. I would personally enjoy an orc one.

**Asrodrig**

WANT!

Second, but a Dwarf one. What better race to get a stein

**Mad Doc Grotsnik**

Oh how I wish I wasn't skint!

Though the WoW Tankard of Terror isn't too expensive for my current pocket.

**Ixquic**

I dunno, if I'm going to spend that much money on something it should look a little less silly. This is coming from someone who is still subscribing to WAR.

**notprop**

$99.99 seems like alot of money for an empty beer mug, that also looks pretty tacky to me IMHO.

Why not simply spend enough for a pint and "borrow" the glass and then buy what say $95 of beer to go in it, then you don't have to tolerate that monstrosity on your desk.

That Tankard from Bugmans is priced favourably to those, anyone know how much they sell them for?

**Tigerone**

I just pre-ordered the Legendary Combo. They look AMAZING!

Because some nerds have enough money for a $100 beer stein and still have some left over for $95 worth of beer.

Personally, I have a nerd budget and until that Fortress of Redemption is firmly in my grasp, I can't justify a $100 cup.
