Total War: WARHAMMER III - Immortal Empires Launch Trailer 

Same applies to Grimgor and Nagash.

Chaos is, quite ironically, very well organized

"we need to Waaaagh" . "Waaaagh!"

Grimgor wouldnt need to make a meeting He would just scream wagh and everyone would knew what to do

Dats why da orks are bestest

That’s going in the FUCKING book

😂

that's a grudgin'

THEY HAVE WRONGED US

Teclis*

Even the Elves are like you fucked up 🤣

Teclis definitely going in the book

That's some problematic language, Teclis.

@@revvv3889 That's a grudging! XD

"High King, now this is no time for that short-sightedness!" *Dwarves gasp* "There is no need for the hard R!"

This is my headcanon now

The age of Sigmar was just an unpleasant dream.

Amen brother, the correct timeline

yes far-better

Indeed. Grombrindal and Tyrion back to back against Dark Elves and Skaven is the true canon

It's an unenviable match up. Poor... poor Skarbrand.

@@JakeCWolf That's why he brings 2 other bloodthirsters with him. That will even the odd a bit.

When does that happen? Ive watched the trailer again and cant seem to see it

@@tomoyboy 1:22

Crikey, I didn’t notice the other two bloodthirsters until you said that.

Mazdamundi decided to move mountain range to make it follow the great plan Settra Got insulted by someone not calling him by his 3000 titles and begun slaughter

"Can't you just move the chariot a little to the left?" "SETTRA DOES NOT SWERVE!"

​@Lego6979 omg dude amazing

Teclis and Karl giggling as vlad von Carsten who the invited as a joke has to shout from the fortress gate as they had the meeting in the daytime and outdoors

Several Ratling stand on eachother’s shoulders to pose as an elf

The fluff always said "He's the greatest Statesman of our time". Before the world blew up anyway...

​@@Tigerheart01 well Manfred and the irl writers are mostly to blame if we're being fair.

SUMMON THE ELECTOR COUNTS

@@Tigerheart01 You can't blame Karl Franz for GW's decision to kill Fantasy to make room for AoS lol

@@robertforsythe7613 BRING ME TO MY MEN!

Well, that would be ironic, considering that the previous best buddy (among elves) of Grombrindal was Malekith

Grombrindal: I never thought I'd die side by side with an elf. Tyrion: How about side by side with a friend? Grombrindal: That goes into the Book!!

Whats funny in your scenario is that Grombrindals VA for this game IS THE ACTOR who played Gimli.

@@MandalorOrdo I didn't even know that lmao

​@@MandalorOrdo I don't think that's true, John Rhys-Davies doesn't have Total Warhammer under his acting credits anywhere, and I can't find any sources that say that he VAed for Grombrindal other than people saying it's true in forums.

Best shot is of a Necrofex Colossus being destroyed by a Hierotitan. 2 undead forces, one fighting for order, one fighting for Chaos. How hilarious that it's the ORIGINAL Necromancers being the Order.

I wouldnt say they fight on the side of order. In warhammer there are good and bad factions and then there is chaos and they all understand that it is worse than anything and it would mean the end of them all so they fight together, they would probably fight eachother again after defeating chaos. (that never happens because the end times was written awfully)

The tomb Kings are basically neutral. They don't care either way as long as they get left alone. Chaos has a bad habit of not leaving anyone alone though, so the TK end up fighting alongside order more out of coincidence than anything. Remember that Settra was aided by elves during a harrowing war against daemons once, and his way of showing gratitude was not slaughtering the elves after the battle, letting them leave his lands alive. That's about as friendly as a Tomb King gets.

The Tomb Kings were pretty much single handedly holding back the armies of Arkhan the Black and the Vampire Coast

The Tomb Kings are bad guys- just not the worst. Settra is a ruthless tyrant who seeks world domination and to be a god among men, but he isn't stupid: he knows Chaos is a grave threat and he refuses to bow to them. He also has some mutual enemies with the Order forces, so he allows for an alliance of convenience until the Storm has passed. After that, the forces of Order had best keep an eye on him.

he probably is the avatar of sigmar at this point so I guess they would listen?

@@stamatisarvanitidis2430 i hope this is not canon in the game since i like Karl for being karl but not Sigmar

I'd follow Karl Franz to the gates of hell and back.

@Stamatis This isn’t GW continuity this is CA. So an Obligatory Fuck The End Times is required.

@@BonfirePlease dw, in the lore another guy is the avatar of Sigmar, although Sigmar does heavily favour Karl

In the trailer you can see that Kislev, Ulthuan and Cathay are under attack. that's why they've only sent emissaries. Because their Leaders are needed on the Homefront.

Small!?????

Teclis is a schemer of Asurs. Imagine you're expecting to talk with Odin and you got Loki instead.

Tyrion isn't the leader either. Finubar is.

Teclis, bless his heart, has a histoy ry of knowing exactly the right thing to do but not how to get others to do it. Enter Karl...

One gotrek and felix book has them interacting with Teclis, some hilarious moments there.

@@ignacio4159 Gotrek is in physical pain the entire time he can't splat Teclis lmao

Karl been the dad of all the faction radiating "don't make me turn this car around" energy.

​@@yamata2001 Which is especially funny considering he's likely one of the youngest beings there

The thing is, with Teclis it is legitimately an accident. Now, if it was Tyrion, then it'd be fully intentional.

The Childike sense of wonder, and hope of humanity is endearing to the elder races.

Such emperors are fairly rare. Usually the Empire is pretty devided, with every elector having his own ambitions. And a lot of useless emperors. There are only 4 significant emperors in over 2500 years. Sigmar Heldenhammer, 1st and founder, Mandred von Zelt, better known as Mandred Skavenslayer, for fighting off serious skaven imvasion, Magnus von Bildhofen, better known as Magnus the Pious for defeating Asavar Kul and ending the Great war against Chaos, and now Karl Franz.

Long lifespans , longer grudges

The gift of living shorter lives manifests in humanity's willpower, they need to figure out what is important, cowards resort to necromancy. To be human is to accept the finiteness of your own existence and endeavour to create something that will go beyond you.

I mean, Teclis was pretty keen on doing that too, it's just no one wants to listen to him. (Though Thorgrim makes a valid point in establishing that he doesn't really represent Ulthuan)

“The Tomb Kings have arrived!!! Tell us, who do you side with??? Your grand chariots!! ‘Yes’

The end times are not exist, this is the canon one

These were what the End Times were meant to be; I would've liked to see Mazdamundi and Orion in that meeting though

So true end times are full of ai cheats. I know I trow hate but I'm just disappointed on how it all works. AI is not only cheating but it's hilarious as well. Diplomacy is bad as hell.

In their defense, both Kislev and Cathay are constantly holding back Chaos, or preparing to hold back Chaos. It’s likely why none of dragon children or Katarina (potentially Kostaltyn; probs spelled that wrong) are there. And if Techlis is gonna bungle foot it (best intentions aside) right out the door, and Thorgrim is going to (rightfully) call the HE on their bullshit, I too would probably stop wasting my time on negations that have already gone out the door in terms of international relations. But Karl is the GOAT of getting people who don’t like each other to work together, so by Sigmar he’s got my vote.

That whole council scene is alot like The Council of Elrond - including the bickering and shade thrown between Drawfs and elves :D

@@Rex1987 Unfortunately, unlike The Lord of the Rings, they are going to lose because they are hopelessly overmatched.

SHOOOOOOOOOOOORT?

@@TheToledoTrumpton There is certainly no one magic artifact that could end all of Chaos in mere seconds.

Knife ears.

*Dawi Zhar

It's lore-accurate, maybe. But game accurate? Dawitide kills everything lol. They don't need to form any alliance with beardless babies to crush chaos and orks and what else!

@@Limrasson Dawi supremacy

Still has problems lmao 7.5/10

Yea but Dawi dnt need anyone. Bring it!

Sqibble di squabble, Nature coming for ya arse!

Hola skink!!

Destroyed both before, and will do it again.

Ah yes, history.

@@cass7448 Okay, I suppose Magnus the Pious might have been the greatest in history, but Karl Franz is organizing all the forces of Order. Not just all the people of the Empire.

@@cass7448 lol Indeed. Yes.

he can reroll his speech checks

"send me to my men."

I love the books still miss Félix

Who they?

@@furanduron4926 gotrek and felix heroes wanted men slayer of all manner of beasts men dragons. Homeless

tbf, I don't think even Gotrek can fight Skarbrand. The biggest enemy Gotrek's ever fought was a Vermin Lord, right? I think he fought a Bloodthirster, but certainly not one on Skarbrand's level.

Iirc Gotrek beat Belakor in End Times

only he has 10 charisma required for speeches

@@skaut_games7644 And a big golden hammer.

@@skaut_games7644 And he is the only one who can speak in CAPS :D

He is the one that summons the elector counts

nakai would want to kill everything that is not a lizardman

Maybe a skink would be sitting on him, translating for him lol

Warm things want to help us kill all Chaos and fulfill the great plan.

lizard man don't much diplomacy

​​@@colonelbbq that's definitely not true at all.

I never actually noticed that. Empire secret service.

The world track of game movies say otherwise

Imagine the cost of all that CGI though

No please....The risk of messing that film is high enough......dont want to see resident evil/monster hunter director doing that.

No thanks. Hollywood should stay away from this. The last thing we need is another Monster Hunter and Rings of Power situation.

@@somedude7398 A said make a GOOD MOVIE and things like the new LOTR are just a tvshow. That being said that tvshow still is not bad. Visual it looks amazing and it's back in time so still refreshing and not more of the same.

*For ze läddy!*

I got Rohan vibes from that. 😂

Glorious

time to show those elfs how hammer to the jaw feels

The fucking LADS

Those are probably the dudes who carry him around...

@@6dragondaddy913 Correct. If any dwarf gets to be this close to him, its either his most entrusted family, Grombrindal, or his throne bearers. And his Thronebearers are pretty much legendary fighters one and all to the degree where everyone on this summit should really avoid fighting them.

Always liked dwarves for that reason, always ready to fight no matter the odds

No soldier who stands against Chaos fights alone!

yep and ten thousand bows get notched as the entire alliance finally agrees on one thing for one brief moment: "#$#@$ this dude"

@@jamesneese7663 he fought nagash after he consumed 3 Gods, I doubt those arrows would do fuckall

Woulda be sweet. But humans, dwarves and elves always gotta take the spotlight

@@skaut_games7644 Even in the shitty end times timeline, Settra throws down with every chaos faction and keeps winning until the planet finally goes boom. Settra is literally one of the single strongest entities in the entire world.

​@@bladebitten2766 Technically setra is still human

Not necessarily good. More like… the enemy of my enemy is my acquaintance

​@texas-red8457 more like, well if I'm gonna have neighbors I'd rather those than then.

With a certain exception, the Tomb Kings are at worst Lawful Neutral. Settra wants to restore his empire eternal, but is pretty fine with others who dont interfere. Leave him and his claimed land alone and the Tomb Kings are fine with you. Unless you're undead. They actually loathe other undead. Their state was kind of an accident. Intentional necromancy, especially considering Arkhan, is a big no no for them.

Fits the game, aye. Most baddie factions only do well enough until Order gets to tier 4-5.

That's why you either have artilery by turn 50 of you die in chaostide

Well according to lore, Chaos will win in the end no matter what.

@@sultankebab1587 Yeah, lore that no one likes/cares about. The whole point of this game is that it puts the fate of the warhammer world into the hands of its players, NOT overly edgy grimderp writers.

@@BJJGamer i guess you are one of these ppl who send their saves to other to win them battles coz youself cant xD... hating on writers hoiw sad life

It's a generic Skaven Warlord. You can tell by the weapon, skirt and the position of the trophies on his back.

You love the “back shot”….? 🧐🧐🧐

I think he means Queek gave him a back shot

Same bro.. I just want série even more from wh

You sound like you collect funko pop

Wait, I don’t need the first two games to play immortal empires? That’s pretty neat actually, though I already own both games this is still pretty good.

Yes but you dont get access to any of the factions from the previous games if you dont own them, which is exactly how it worked in the previous title. Not sure what your talking about with "clearly heard what the community wants" since they are doing the exact same thing as last time.

@@homeless0alien nah, WH2 requires you to own WH1 to play ME

@@homeless0alien yeah but you can play with all the game 3 races in the immortal empires map. which you couldnt before this change

@@georgestoebig105 Yeah you just need Warhammer 3 now.

Not just that daemon. The daemon. _The Skarbrand_ *Greatest Bloodthirster of Khorne.* *_The Daemon so powerful that all the armies of the other gods could not compare to his rage_*

@@tomthestone1470lmao The Skarbrand! Truer words have never been spoken. He hates knocking sounds.

@@tomthestone1470 you can see two other bloodthristers behind him as well

Hope so. If warhammer decides to make 40k imma personally go to the studios and punch someone in the face

@@rafaellehmann6160 TW 40k is the only logical direction after WFB is complete in TW.

@@Retrosicotte But the engine makes no sense for 40k, at least for me they should heavily modify everything known to the saga for it to make the cut

@@MrPeanut656565 Yea 1 man doomstack spacemarine vs planet and then you have zerg. Maybe in 10 years we can talk about it?

@@MrPeanut656565 What do you mean, "The engine makes no sense" ? Are you talking about the number of entities in game or are you talking about the guns?

Warhammer is basically LOTR with grim and punk spirit.

it gives leadership aura, and resistance to fear

That ending always makes me laugh for one reason. You see all of these leaders making really cool entrances: Karl Franz on the back of Deathclaw, Tsar Katarina (I think) on a bear, Archaon and the various Greater Daemons marching across the battlefield. All of these badass entrances. Then there's just Wulfrik running past the camera 😂.

And of course the first shot would be one of Archaon the Everchosen himself.

Except the Lizardmen, they beat the crap out of Nurgle

Those 3 factions are more along the lines of "actions speak louder than words"

The Lizardmen went after chaos as the meeting was held They are the defenders of the world, and they went to the battle to fulfill their duty

Short?!

SHORT?!?!

SHORT!??

SHORT???!

SHORT?!! also ogres didn't get a scene

Yeah… this is aged milk

Now this trailer serves as a hollow grave

Boris from farther down the table: Hey, Karl. K: Oh! You guys got here quick. B: We’ve been here literally the entire time you have.

WH2 had the Order Tide as a regular occurrence, but I don't know how common that is in WH3 these days.

Well, Franz is now able to use his diplomacy with most Order factions now, meaning it’s indeed possible to form the Ordertide.

Blows my mind that these trailers are made with in-game assets of an RTS game.... The models are so good.

Same. I wish they could make an animated movie. Don't need to make live action first

It makes sense honestly. Dawi and humans usually get along, but the Elves do have a tendency to slight the dwarves, at least how the Dawi perceive it.

Buying them isnt useless, you still only have the warhammer 3 factions without them

same. I just wanna see ppl suffering through "beginner recommended" factions

Agreed, they've totally deserved all the money that we've paid over the years from TWW1 up to this point!

@@richardlee6763 They must be recommended for versatile army compositions. Karl, Katarin and Miao are pretty rough starts within IE, thats for sure. Tyrion is still fine.

@@richardlee6763 suffering? This game is so easy even on legendary and all end game crisis x10. We need more difficulty, more enemy armies.

I am SUPREME !!

And now, it I'd possible!!!

i could smack him up real easy

you could even say it's now cannon (ba dum tss)

Gelt is moving to Cathay in Update 5.0 too.

I don't want Hollywood touching this to be honest. After seeing Netflix's The Witcher and Amazon's Rings of Power, I don't trust them making a Warhammer fantasy TV show or movie.

@@somedude7398 You are absolutely right... but hey, let a man dream

​@@somedude7398 CA CAN DO IT

That's Skarbrand. The only being known to have physically damaged Khorne

@@UncleAsmos2005And just another on the list of names of poor bastards to run into a certain dwarf and his companion.

There was a Warhammer MMO once.

YAAAAAAS

Okay picture this : a CRPG ( top-down computer rpg ) set in the Warhammer Fantasy universe. in character creation, you choose between the following races/backgrounds : Druchii Vampire Vampire Pirate Asrai Asur Ogre Dawi Dawi-Zharr Human ( Order or Chaos aligned ) Skaven each race/background determines how you interact with the world and what type of companions can recruit, and in some cases your moral alignment. you build a party of capable and diverse companions and face down the horrors of the world, either for the betterment of others or for your own gain. plus it would be incredibly funny to have a Dark Elf, a Skaven, a Chaos Dwarf and a Vampirate in the same RPG party. imagine all the betrayal.

@@TheKolboShow theres a pretty big warhammer mod in the works for mount and blade bannerlord

Jesus, stop it with Henry Cavill already. Holy crap

@@thomasgrey9121 Henry Cavill is a greatt actor

I would really love this. Cavill is literally Karl Franz.

As Empire and Bretonian colonists still robbing our sweet warm Lustria. Eviction notice time! But it would be funny if there was Slann at the meeting. "Umm, if i may interrupt. Humans We were battling demons for thousands of years while you were still trying to figure out how to create fire with rocks and sticks Ruler of Mankind, it is you who is funding expeditions to our lands to rob them and kill our kind. Dwarfs We taught your Ancestors how to inscribe magic into things, you have your runes thanks to uss. Show uss our deserved respect. Elfs You have a part in the Great Plan. Buth watch your mouths or we will show you REAL magic."

Just shift the mountains a bit Lord Mazda, I'm sure no one will notice.

Lizards do too. Its good they werent represented at the table, because they certainly couldnt care less to attend. Unfortunately.

QEQEQEQEQEQEQEQEQEQEQEQE

Almost all big cavalry charges are. The two that come to mind first are the Charge of the Winged Hussars, and the Ride of the Rohirrim. Or the charge at Helm's Deep.

SHORT?!?!?!

Good thing Thorgrim the chad was there to stop them

That "demon" smacked a God and lived, c'mon now

@@RRRRRRRRR33 counterpoint: Khorne wasn't trying to kill him and just wanted to teach him a lesson (sneak attacks are for cowards). On the other hand, it's Gotrek and Felix. One is the literal avatar of a god and was the only mortal to survive the end of the world and just dip into AoS (excluding mortals who became gods) and the other has survived having to adventure with a legendary slayer. Oh yeah, they also already killed a bloodthirster. They did struggle there, however that was in the first years of their travels and by Archaon's invasion they had decades more experience. Gotrek also gets for power from his axe as he goes (given that the axe is what makes him an avatar of the dwarf god)

Fucks up and blames his underlying, the wind, and rival sabotage for it lol

That is another day of adventure for them. Through the last time they fought against a Bloodthirstier, there was only one not 3 here.

Thats fucking Skarbrand. Even for the likes of Gotrek, Skarbrand is danger. I actually don't think I can think of a more physically imposing threat on the side of Chaos.

not just any bloodthirster, but thiccboi skarbrand

@@imtired9395 Tbf, they faced down Belakor. And he's a bigger threat than Skarbrand.

@@stephenjenkins7971 I mean, thats debatable. In magic, sure, but in terms of raw killing and battle potential, Skarbrand is unparalleled. Thats kinda Khorne's thing. Direct, senseless attack is something he does better than anyone.
