Hope this gives WFB a boost the way the 40k games gave 40k a boost.

Creative Assembly first signed a deal to partner with Games Workshop in 2012 to develop a new series of games based on the Warhammer fantasy universe.
"With this year being our 25th anniversary," Creative Assembly studio director Tim Heaton said at the time, "it seems fitting for us to embark on such a dream project with such a well-established partner.
"The incredibly rich and detailed Warhammer world is something we grew up with, and has left an indelible imprint on us as both designers and gamers. We'll be doing the Warhammer universe justice in a way that has never been attempted before. We're bringing those 25 years of experience and expertise in extremely high-scoring games to bear, delivering a Warhammer experience that videogamers will absolutely love."

Hopefully that means its not for ipad...
The context of the drawings could be worrying:
"The future is interesting. As a games player I find myself playing games for longer than I ever used to. Games-as-a-service is already a reality. There are games I've been playing for literally years now (Eve Online is a great example) which continue to grow and evolve. What we play affects the way we think about what we want to do for the future, such as making games which people can play for longer periods, or looking at ways to pull more social aspects into the game. Multiplayer has never been Total War's strong point in the past, and that's something we're looking to radically change with Total War: ARENA. For most strategy games, multiplayer is almost all of the experience or,at the very least, a sizeable chunk of it. We're also experimenting with this in the mobile space, with Total War: KINGDOM, and taking the series to a fantasy setting with Total War: Warhammer."
no, does not want I definitely do not want more multiplayer. its bad enough already with the "multiplayer achievements"
Yup, no multiplayer, no mobile gaming, no game as a service .
well, I wouldn't complain if the multiplayer was better than the one in Rome2 at least (as in, actually working reliably...) but I definitely aggree it shouldn't be the main focus of the game
Don't know... ther has not been a single good Warhammer RTS.
Mark of Chaos, Dark Omen, Shadow of the Horned Rat... neither was good... quite the opposite. Converting a round based game into an RTS never worked out well
Total war isn't RTS though, it's turn based for the most part. You can play the campaign without ever touching the real time element if you were so inclined.
But you don't have to play the combat, and the combat is more tactical than strategy. You don't do any building or resource gathering or any of the RTS things, you just fight a single battle based on things from the turn based strategy game.
I've literally never heard anyone refer to totalwar as RTS before today.
Combat is still not turn based. No matter what you want to call it.
And turn based games do not translate well in "not turn based games".
Dark Omen, Shadow of the Horned Rat, Mark of Chaos did not have these things either. Still the were nowhere near "good".Quote:

I guess there is a reason why the better Warhammer strategy games were Turn based (Bloodbowl, Final Liberation, Chaos Gate).
No combat isn't but it's still a turn based strategy game.
And total war is an existing franchise that knows what they're doing generally, warhammer total war should work if they get the balance right.
They're clearly taking an existing working formula and applying the warhammer world to it, rather than trying from scratch.
Final liberation and chaos gate were terrible as well.
And exactly that is what I would not like them to do.Quote:

Don't get me wrong... I love the Total War series. But that concept doesn't translate well on Warhammer.
A Total War with Warhammer toons does still make it a good Total War game but not necesscarily a good Warhammer game.
The opposite would be Space Marine which is a terrible Action shooter but a good Warhammer 40k game.
It depends how well they do it?
There is every chance it will sell well and be terrible, but who knows?
But more importantly I wonder what TF2 hats will come with it?
I completely disagree, I think Total War is the perfect way to do a Warhammer game, there are certainly no better choices.
I still want Bethasda to do an Inquisition game.
Mod it until Exterminatus.:p
lols
Unfortunately fallout3/vegas are games I own on the potatostation
Guess I'll be needing a gaming PC.
Owing to space issues, someone recommend me a decent gaming laptop please. I looked at Alienware, and after I stopped laughing, I realised there prices weren't a haxxorz prank.
Need to wait to see what the specs are.
But rather than a laptop, why not get a small form factor? Hide it behind the telly, connect via HDMI to it, wireless keyboard mouse xbox controller and boom jobs a good'un
Alienware hasn't been worth the price since they were bought out by Dell ages ago.
For laptops you can try CyberPC or ibuypower online or purchase an Asus from an electronics store (just look for a decent CPU, RAM and an independent GPU).
Trouble is, I no longer know what a decent CPU would be!
The SO bought a MSI gaming laptop from overclockers, and you pay a good 50% more for one than a similar specced desktop self build.
Take Wolfies idea and go the small form factor route.
The latest TW:A isn't terribly resource hungry, so could run fine on a non-gaming machine.
Though becareful, laptops are more expensive and if you include the word "gaming" it goes up even higher.
And if you don't it probably doesn't have the right drivers, no dedicated graphics card and is even more hassle than its worth
The interwebz, I'll send you a pm.
So, we've seen the video what does it say.
We've got Orcs, Goblins, Dwarfs, Vampire Counts and Empire. Possibly chaos
"a greater threat still whispers in the winds from the north. The fabric of reality itself begins to rend and buckle..."

I cannot for the life of me fathom why they didn't call it "Total Warhammer."

[0:58] Piggies! So cute!
I've called it Total Warhammer since it was first rumoured :p
I want to see gameplay, I want the campaign map.
Neat, better be elves in it though.
