Warhammer 3 is coming up, and based on what we’ve seen so far it’s been really exceeding my expectations.
I never thought they’d do anything as awesome as the customizable Legendary Lord for the Daemons of Chaos Undivided faction. That campaign looks absolutely epic.
Spoilers for end campaign rewards:
so the game was supposed to ship with 9 LLs; 11 with the preorder/first week bonus Ogre factions. But now we know they’re also adding an unlockavle 3rd Lord for Kislev, Boris, plus the Big Bad of the campaign - Belakor - is unlockable by winning the campaign. He doesn’t get his own campaign, you just get to stomp around with him post-game; but I see a lot of speculation that he’ll get his own campaign on the combined map, and I agree, that would be really cool. Regardless, an extra starting lords beyond the largest roster in the series so far is pretty great. Hopefully they will continue their DLC/FLC policy - I’m excited to see what they do with the inevitable Chaos Dwarf pack, and Cathay will probably get the Monkey King at some point since he shows up in load screens.
Aside from that, we’re getting really cool new siege battles, the new MP Domination mode looks really really fun, there are two mini campaigns in Multi-player that might mean a coop game actually gets finished (8 player rumble on Cathay between Chaos, Ogres, and Cathay; a 3 player coop defense against Demons in Kislev…)
I can’t wait to get my hands on this game. I’m split between playing as the Demon Prince, Kislev, or Ogres first…
If anyone is interested in sending off WH2 with a succession game, I started a thread here:
