  1. Wish I could get into these games. Tried Warhammer II out a few times and really didn’t understand the excitement for it. Just direct big swarms of soldiers to other soldiers and they basically just fight each other automatically. I don’t get it.

    1. They don’t fight automatically. It’s not like Starcraft or Warcraft. You have to issue orders, use formations, use the terrain, forest, walls and the most powerfull thing, magic. It is way more complex than the historical Total War titles. I too thought TW Warhammer was meh, but i bought it in 2017 played 10 hours ditch it for a few months and then reinstalled it. I got hooked on it, then Warhammer II came out and i have over 2000 hours sunk in them.

        1. If I may, I suggest starting with a faction that is more to your liking aesthetically or lorewise, and one that has simpler mechanics. For example, I don’t recommend starting with Empire, Skaven, Beastmen, Norsca or Chaos. Playing with Vampire counts and Dwarfs might also condition you to a specific playstyle not suited for any other faction. Other than that, you would be fine choosing whichever faction your heart desires. You can also watch this video from Zerkovich as a guide (Though it is geared more towards multiplayer and thus I don’t agree with everything he says):

          Also there is no shame in starting with easy difficulty. Before TWWH I had never played a totalwar game, so I started on easy, before getting hooked and playing over 3700 hours in the game. Choose the difficulty that you enjoy, not what others might say is good.

      1. It’s basically a positioning game, formations matter, terrain matters, flanking matters, at most you have 40 things to command and that’s the biggest battle in the campaign with two fully stacked out armies.
        This isn’t SC2 where you have to individually teleport one of 50 void stalkers back in 0.3 seconds or you lose, this is more “I need to move these guys so when their cavalry gets here my archers don’t get pulled into melee.”

  3. All good and dandy, but thing is, will they have a detailed tutorial to learn how to play the freaking game?

    1. You should check out legendoftotalwar channel on YT. That is the best way to learn to play singleplayer in TW Warhammer.
