Players can wage war in whichever way they choose, though I will say Total War offers a challenging set of obstacles that will make Easy difficulty seem Hard, and Hard down right BONKERS! When it comes to strategy in Total War: Warhammer, the variety is infinite. Strike at an enemy settlement or army, and suddenly you are waging epic real-time skirmishes against hundreds of units in a vast battlefield. Occupy a settlement, build infrastructure, then enlist reinforcements to take into battle. All factions, including you, take turns growing their empires across a humongous world map. Throwing differences aside, battle gameplay mechanics are synonymous between races (excluding the Warriors of Chaos). Gameplay:Įnemy ambushes can be deadly if you are unprepared What I discovered was an endless battle for control that more than once ended with my head on a stick. So when Total War developers The Creative Assembly announced a collaboration with Games Workshop to create Total War’s first ever non-historical based strategy game Total War: Warhammer, I leaped at the opportunity to immerse myself deeper into Warhammer’s now virtual realm of flesh, magic, and steel. Acquiring models and then spending the time to paint and design them is something I do not have the hand nor patience for. I do enjoy many ta ble top games, most recently Munchkin and Epic Spell Wars, but Warhammer can be an extensive hobby. I’ve watched the sweat and tears roll down their cheeks, flare ups over horrible dice rolls, and even the emergency dash to the hardware store for a new tape measure, because well… Dave threw it over the fence again. But I have watched a few buddies play a game or two of 40K. Good day everyone! I’m Nolan aka Totaltoad, and I’ve got to be completed honest with you: I’ve never played a round of table top Warhammer.
