Some of you may remember that quite a wile ago Warhammer-Empire.com had a chat feature. This was an IRC channel hosted by
The Warhammer Forum which we were graciously allowed to use on our site as well.
This feature is now back, and can be accessed here:
http://www.warhammer-empire.com/pjirc/Just click the link and you will be taken to a java-based chat, often filled with lots of other Warhammer Players.
The atmosphere is pretty relaxed, but be sure to behave, you are representing this site after all!
Some more details in the comments.
