This is really rather pretty. I've never been 110% convinced by demigryphs but they're fine, and certainly Karl Franz's description of a battered, defensive, corrupt Empire is definitely how I like seeing them :)
-
Possibly the first time I've ever thought about playing as Dwarves.
-
I'd have gone with someone with a slightly more dramatic and less conversational voice for the trailers. :P
But yeah, the dwarfs do look very pretty :) Looking forward to seeing more!
-
Your mild aspiration is granted.
-
Here's a (looks unedited) battle gameplay vid.
-
Saw a picture of Ungrim Ironfist on the FB page.
I still think after all this time that the slayers just look ridiculous. :P
(One of the two reasons, along with lack of a model, that they're one of the most iconic units absent from WHTW)
-
Oooh, looks good. Obviously dwarf army worst army but still, the new features look promising.
-
But muh dorfs :(
-
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Chaos and the Vampire counts.
-
Campaign map looks great, see the dwarf settlement get all orc'y when it's captured.
@SW VC and Chaos in the main game as playable factions and you get a little glimpse of what happens when VCs get hold of a region here near the end.
-
Does look neat :) I'm still not sure if I'll get it when it appears, but pretty it certainly is.
-
Necromancer looks awesome. Summoning zombies behind enemy lines is going to be amazing.
-
Eeeeeeeeeeeee :D
Yes, summoning magic like that is super high on my list of things I'm sad I could never do in the Rome 1 engine.
-
3:30ish Summon units directly into an army with quality increasing if there has been a battle there. That's awesome.
Also Rome 1 style combat where units just hit whatever is in front of them instead of the mocap duelling from Rome2/Shogun2/Attila/Empire

I went on a bit of a tangent in my first ever piece of undergrad teaching this week to discuss WHTW with the students :P
-
Lol, what happened? And how did this come up? Or was it shameless plugging? :P
-
-
One of the students was looking at the new gameplay vids for TW:WH on his laptop when I arrived, basically.
And it was a seminar on Tolkien and the modern impacts of his work so not far off relevant!

Chaos Campaign.
