Well it’s quite good for an in-engine trailer. It’s a Kislev trailer.

I think someone said there's going to be 4 Chaos-themed trailers for each god.

TW e-celebs are already spamming their EPIC WARHAMMER III TRAILER ANALYSIS LORE AND SPECULATION videos. I'm not poasting any of that empty bullshit.

No matter how many little girls they have talking about Tzeentch in a hype video, it certaintly will not make Warhammer lore more mainstream

It looks like those antlers on the bear cavalry have been removed.

Yeah they have retarded ice crystals randomly sticking out of their armour instead
Impractical armor has been a stapple of Games Workshop design since the beginning. The engineering of the Space Marines pauldrons in the lore is just hilarious.

Yeah, but just from a visual design point of view; it's a fucking bear. It doesn't need such a busy design to work.

Don't care about gimmick battles. Wake me when they show normal battles, or even changes to the campaign mode.

Are siege battles ever going to not be complete dogshit in these games?

That's my main problem with this series. The actual fun part of the games (battles on the open field between armies of equal strength) doesn't happen often enough. Instead the majority of the time you're dealing with the tedious campaign map, shitty siege battles, or one sided battles where you completely annihilate the enemy or where you fight an overwhelming force with cheese tactics.

Yeah, that was surprisingly uninspiring given all that “dramatic culmination of the series” fuss.

CA went into damage control almost immediately and assured everyone Survival Battles are "rare" and only one type of battle.

Yeah, and you just start autoresolving every battle and it becomes a complete chore. And siege battles could be really great and interesting but in warhammer they are even worse then in the historical games.

Nah they fixed that in one of the Warhammer 2 patches

by changing the autoresolve so that players always have a disadvantage in siege battle calculations

Survival – A New Game Mode
Veteran generals of the Total War: Warhammer series will be familiar with siege battles and the uphill struggle that comes with assaulting an enemy on their home turf. Now you’ll be tested more than ever, as Survival has you fighting through defences and capturing vital areas to plunge deep into the enemy’s heartland.

lol

Before we let you go off to watch over the trailers again, we do have one more thing to share. As you’ll have gathered by now, the Kislev units appearing in Total War: Warhammer III are being designed for Warhammer The Old World by our very own creative team.

lol


No wonder they look so retarded. GW and CA are collaborating on their epic new Age of Sigmar-tier redesigns for WFB.

3 Kingdoms again shines there. The autoresolve is fairly accurate, battles between armies of similar strength occur more often and it often behoves the player to manually resolve the bigger ones just to preserve their units a bit more.

E: The ice on the bear artillery looks stupid.
