At the end, we also see a map that teases Cathay. It's focused on Katarin, who is preparing to face daemons and warriors of Chaos with the forces of Kislev. It's just a cinematic, but it sets the scene. Are there Total War: Warhammer 3 trailers? Tzeentch armies can teleport across impassable terrain as well. Tzeentch, meanwhile, is heavy on the magic, with a campaign currency called grimoires that can be spent to troll other factions by transferring ownership of settlements, forcing rebellions, breaking alliances, opening city gates, and more. Khorne is anti-magic and focused on straightforward hand-to-hand fighting, getting battle bonuses the longer they stay in a fight. Slaanesh is about speedy hit-and-run tactics, with plenty of armor-piercing, and can seduce factions to make vassals out of them. Even their buildings are organic and gross, some of them growing and then dying off in a cycle. Nurgle spreads disease in battle while their own troops regenerate, and spreads plagues in the campaign as well. As lead battle designer Jim Whitson told us, "We felt there was enough content in terms of the roster of spell lores, the characters and so on for each of those gods to have their own unique playable race with their own suite of unique features." In the tabletop game Daemons of Chaos are a single army with units dedicated to four different gods. Their other choice is Skrag the Slaughterer, a prophet of ogre god The Great Maw, who drags a meat-pot behind him and is accompanied by gore-gnoblars who fill it with the leftover bits of his foes. The ogres can be led by Greasus Goldtooth, aka Tradelord Greasus Tribestealer the Shockingly Obese, who represents the mercenary side of the Ogre Kingdoms and throws spare change around to win over his enemies. Both can be upgraded to ride war bears, as is the Kislev way.Ĭathay has two lords, both able to become dragons whenever they feel like it: Miao Ying, the Storm Dragon, who holds the Great Bastion in the north against Chaos, and her brother Zhao Ming, the Iron Dragon, who rules the Western Provinces and has a campaign about running trade caravans when he's not fighting the nearby skaven. Kislev's legendary lords are Tzarina Katarin, a spellcaster who wields the new Lore of Ice, and Kostaltyn, a battle-priest who spends his time denouncing heretics and spellcasters. As in previous Warhammers, there's room for more lords to be added as DLC and free-LC. Which legendary lords are in Total War: Warhammer 3?Īt launch, Cathay, Kislev, and the Ogre Kingdoms will have two legendary lords each, with one for each of the four Chaos Gods, and a final customizable option for Chaos Undivided. This means we're going to be in for some surprises, and you can expect some brand new daemonic creatures as well.Ĭreative Assembly also snuck a special faction in, the Daemons of Chaos, which lets you recruit units from every Chaos god, as well as giving you a Legendary Lord who's as customisable as an RPG protagonist. The Ogre Kingdoms will appear as launch DLC, available free for the first week after launch, as Warriors of Chaos were in the original game.Ĭathay and Kislev don't have armies in the tabletop game right now, though Games Workshop is putting together a Kislev army for its resurrection of the Old World setting. Chaos will be represented by the armies of Khorne, Nurgle, Slaanesh, and Tzeentch, while the human factions of Cathay and Kislev will be opposing them. Warhammer 3's launching with seven factions, predominantly full of daemons.
