It doesn't really look like he'd be a new faction, seems more like a mix of tomb kings and vampire counts? Nagash is the master of Necromancy and it's original creator, in the End Times where he had his own army it was basically a mishmash of every undead faction (except the not represented at the time Vampire Coast). He also had some of his own stuff, and he prefers mindless undead to ones with self-thought, so he might get a bunch of skeleton/ghost additions.

Just expect a giant skeleton with a huge hat that fucks up everything he touches and loses all the time, probably with really strong magic (that he'll gently caress up casting) and typical vampire count minions (who will betray him). His starting location will be right by a toilet so you can immediately start giving him a swirly.

He'll probably have a mishmash of Vampire Counts, Vampire Coast, and a limited amount of Tomb Kings stuff(the Tomb Kings outside of Arkhan mostly loving hate him, given that he's the reason that they're all mummies). I'd also expect some new undead. He himself would likely be a monstrous-sized, earthshatteringly powerful caster lord with Lore of Vampires and possibly some Death, Shadows, or even Dark magic(because he made Necromancy by learning Dark magic and loving around with it, effectively), as well as probably some titanic bonuses to leading various undead units. Magically he should be able to equal or surpass every other caster in the game with few exceptions; he's one of the strongest mortal casters who ever lived even before he became a lich, at which point he was functionally a demigod even before AoS(when he becomes an actual god).

The stuff from the prior games carries forward if you own it right? In one of the game modes or something? Basically what I want to know is if I can play as vampire pirates in TW:W3 cause that sounds great.

Nagash doesn't seem like he'd require as much of a performance as just a guy that sounds a certain way (and effects to further that). Does he have a personality or is he just an evil guy? Anyway, I think Imrik probably tops out the voice acting in 2 for me. e: They better record extra lines for the existing Warhammer 1 and 2 characters, including the little pre-battle speeches that are now a thing. e2: Okay, Settra is also amazing, he's probably up there with Imrik for me.

Nagash is *incredibly* arrogant, so they could probably do some fun stuff with him if they wanted. He's not going to be pulling Skeletor "myaaaaahs" but they could easily go with something like "substantially more evil Settra".

Reminder that a lot of the "canon personalities" we love so much were created with TWWH. Nagash will get an all-star dialogue treatment, I have faith in this.

I shall be a Big Boy."

Triskelli posted:https://youtu.be/ZRJo3R3ANsw Ah, so it's not just cavalry units that are affected by some kind of animation bug where they kind of don't move in to attack probably, seems to be a shared thing with lots of units, and might even be related to the flying unit landing to attack bug. Hopefully that's something they manage to fix, and even more hopefully it doesn't take for ever to do so. A very good and thorough review video IMO highlighing the good points but also calling attention to problems and lackluster elements. e: Somewhat surprised that the DLC treatment is seemingly already in effect for the Ogre preorder bonus, though intrigued to hear him say in the review that playing the Ogres (appropriately) feels more like running a criminal enterprise than an empire.
