About Total War: WARHAMMER

✦ AI summary

Command five distinct fantasy races across a vast sandbox world, blending turn-based empire-building with explosive real-time battles featuring dragons, magic, and legendary heroes. Total War: WARHAMMER stands out as the first Total War game to embrace a full fantasy setting, complete with flying creatures, devastating spells, and colossal monsters that reshape tactical warfare.


Total War: WARHAMMER



The Old World echoes to the clamour of ceaseless battle. The only constant is WAR!

A fantasy strategy game of legendary proportions, Total War: WARHAMMER combines an addictive turn-based campaign of epic empire-building with explosive, colossal, real-time battles. All set in the vivid and incredible world of Warhammer Fantasy Battles.

Command five wholly different races: Bretonnia, the Empire, the Dwarfs, the Vampire Counts and the Greenskins, each with their own unique characters, battlefield units and play style.

Lead your forces to war with powerful Legendary Lords from the Warhammer Fantasy Battles World, arming them with fabled weapons, armour and deadly battle magic; hard-won in individual quest chains.

For the first time in a Total War game, harness storms of magical power to aid you in battle and take to the skies with flying creatures, from ferocious dragons and wyverns to gigantic griffons.



Additional Free Content


Total War: WARHAMMER launched to critical acclaim in May 2016. Since then, a wealth of free content has been added, including the recent addition of Bretonnia as the fifth playable race in the Old World.

As well as this additional race, the rich world of Total War: WARHAMMER has been expanded since release with the inclusion of four new Legendary Lords, brand new units, new Lores of Magic and over 30 bespoke maps for single and multiplayer battle. These updates are available for free to all new and existing players.

Hundreds of hours of gameplay await you at the dawn of a new era. Total War: WARHAMMER brings to life a world of legendary heroes, towering monsters, flying creatures, storms of magical power and regiments of nightmarish warriors.

Lead Extraordinary Races


The Chivalrous knights of Bretonnia, the valiant men of the Empire, the vengeful Dwarfs, the murderous Vampire Counts and the brutal Orcs and Goblins of the Greenskin tribes. Each Race is wholly different with their own unique characters, campaign mechanics, battlefield units and play style.

Command Legendary Characters


March your forces to war as one of 12 Legendary Lords from the Warhammer Fantasy Battles World, arming them with fabled weapons, armour, mounts and deadly battle magic as you uncover their tales through a series of unique narrative quest chains.



Conquer this World


The very first Total War game to feature a fantasy setting. In the Old World Campaign, experience incredible depth and the freedom to conquer as you see fit across a gigantic sand-box map. Crafted from a twisted magical landscape and populated with an incredible array of awesome and deadly creatures, this is your chance to experience fantasy strategy on a scale as yet unimagined.

Unleash the Monsters


The battlefields of Total War: WARHAMMER echo to the swoop and roar of dragons, the bellowing of giants and the thundering hooves of monstrous cavalry. Towering beasts of both earthly and supernatural origin wade into the melee of battle, bringing death to hundreds of lesser creatures at a time.



Harness the Winds Of Magic


Smite your enemies with magical storms, melt their armour, sap their fighting spirit or bolster your own forces with devastating spells that split the sky and consume the battlefield. Rally wizards, shamans and necromancers to your armies and bend titanic and unpredictable energies to your whim.



Watch the Skies


Harass your enemies with Dwarfen Gyrocopters, plunge into their front-lines with terrifying Wyverns and achieve air superiority with a stunning array of flying units for the first time in a Total War game. Entirely new tactical possibilities present themselves as you deploy your winged minions in open battles and jaw-dropping sieges.

What is more, this title will go on to combine with two future sequels and additional content packs to create the largest Total War experience ever. An epic trilogy of titles that will redefine fantasy strategy gaming.

Fantasy slop. People need to spend less time reading make-believe lore and pick up an actual history book. This is garbage.

First recommendation: skip all the short campaigns. I hate every single one I have tried. The limitations they put on you are just obnoxious and you either have to memorize everything in advance, to take multiple attempts to have any kind of efficiency about completing the objectives before 4 full stack armies camp your final objective. Second recommendation: A LOT of the factions have a really slow, boring, and annoying early game. You really have to get over that hump. My first campaigns were as Von Carsteins because all their early units are trash and I almost quit the game before trying Beastmen and having a blast with it. Third recommendation: Unit spam doesn't work. Even with great leadership, the delta between a unit's effectiveness is much bigger than the raw numbers might suggest. Not quite logarithmic, but not quite linear either. You really need to build your economy and research ASAP. My main gripe is that the RNG is complete and total ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. If you autoresolve anything but a 10 to one advantage battle, you will have entire elite units wiped out for no reason while trash mobs get through unscathed. I think they did this on purpose just to be ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ because ther…
