Elspeth, Robo-Horse Engineers & Volley Gun Tank! Empire vs Greenskins - Total War Warhammer 3

Look up the word haggard in a dictionary and you'll see those mechanical horses

You going to stream a campaign Turin ??

so much of thrones of decay seems like playtesting for TW40K lol. Especially the Steam Tank and Thunderbarge.

The existance of the robohorse implies the empire has the technology for mechs!
Khemri has a mech!
Cathat has several mechs!
The wood elves have tree mechs!
HELL even the zombie pirates have a ship mech!

WHERE IS THE EMPIRE MECH!

Jokes aside this dlc is cool.
The new steam tanks are "chef's kiss" perfect.

For the Empire! Very excited for the long overdue update.

Steamtanks having 100% block at the front is great, but im assuming artillery still hurts them. Cause i think shields can't block cannons, mortars, laser beams..giant bone arrows. Alot in between missiles i wonder about, are Ushabti arrows and Coast deck gunners blocked, or they considered artillery? Be interesting to test various missiles

How is the Empire without the dlc? Are the unpopular conventional artillery options more viable now?
I know everyone is hyped about the dlc but I'm really interested to see improvements of the barely used parts of the existing roster.

Memetank turned into Teamtank.

was 100% certain that greenskins would win this. Whan an epic ending with that steam tank rollover and terror

That Palpatine guys really make double work simultaneously)))0)

Unit card for the engineers look terrible lmao

For Sigmar!

Idk about the new tank. The only thing I saw it do was terror route. That hellblaster gun seems pretty bad with only 3 barrels plus idk if im remembering correctly, but didnt the original Steam tank have a steam gun that shot a stream?? This one shoots a little ball and doesn't do much either..

I can't wait for it to be released, so that I can start a new Karl Franz campagin

Lore wise i find it sorta strange that Mechanical horses weren't retconned. I mean the tech behind that would be leagues above what the empire usually has access to.
Like, if they can make mechanical electrically powered mini mechs essentially then why don't they just make bigger ones? Why don't they just have big robots with guns based on the tech behind the horse?
I mean, steampunk empire mechs would be rad but still.

I'd always allow grundel's defenders to protect my grundel.

So for the next DLC are we going to see the elven factions get powder units, artillery and inexpensive chaff? This is kinda fucked.

This is one of the best matches I've seen in a while!

When your waagh arrives I'm afraid you'll find this Steam Tank quite operational.

Good entertaining match!

As someone that just plays slaanesh land battle ranked and sometimes wood elf's they been top tier, there making them even better now

How much do you want to bet Turin the engineer on top of the steam tank will be used for a commissar in 40k lol, great video like always, patch 5.0 has me super excited!

I can't figure out what Knights of the Rose are meant to do for an army?

This one played out like a book. Empire vs Ork is just such a classic setup that feels really good when it's so razor thin like this.

About the steam tank missile resist - the base is 70%. It gets 100% of THAT value to the front - so, 70%, half to the sides (35%), and 7% rear.

that was a bs win tbh

OG land battle best battle

I find it hilarious that even though at the time of writing, I have seen easily half a dozen battles, walkthroughs, early game playthroughs and the official gameplay that CA themselves showed off. Creators have had access to it for upwards of a week. But they still don't have an actual release date for the DLC. The internet literally bullied them so badly with the nickname "thrones of delay" that we don't even get a release date in case they have to push it back for the 400th time which is just the funniest thing to me.

We missed land battles in this channel thank you.

Fascinating replay. Turin shows "what can be" with his off-meta shenanigans... The fact that Steam cannons and Engineers can shoot air should make them essential, as there are so many raid-boss commanders (like Dragons!) that are hard to counter... And the Empire has a dragon!! Cheaters!... And the MVP goes to the Grundel's Defenders. What a fascinating tech/defense. They're Anti-Large, but they are not immune to the Terror-rout common with Large opponents. Their "Charge Defense Against All" feature makes them extra useful in the late-game, when players start recruiting cavalry.

Elspeth seems great, still wouldnt call Death a great lore tho. Spirit leech and passive. Thats about where the good about it ends. Still would always get light/jade wizard to use the winds on.

Unbreakable saved the empire on this one

BTW, the Cannon one can fire on the move now too

must be torture trying to aim with that damn robohorse just constantly trotting and dancing

ETA on the old world battle reports? ❤️

Greenskins are actually pretty balanced, they just are strong af until breaking

nice to hear that Toris Bodbringer has got some buff too. Much love from CA.

Do bound abilities like the Luminarch's activate the respective Lore of Magic's passive boost?

I am not fan of robohorse. I mean rugged steam tank is pinnacle of Empire engineering and that horse is way way more sophisticated piece of technology not fitting into the roster. Maybe as some weird Malakai experiment as sign of dwarven briliance in engineering or as magic based golem for elves, however this way it is just off.

Epic battle and Turins smooth commentary. The dream! Empire lookin crisp in 5.0.

The greenskins need a real update. They're the worst performing race in the game...

Hopefully one of the dlcs gives some love to the greenskins

I guarantee whoever named the specialized backline defender Spearmen "Grundel's Defenders" was tittering like a schoolkid when they typed it out.

I still think the orcs need a bigger nerf, they might be a "Horde" army, but they each individually unit wise hit way too hard for their gold price for being a "Horde" army. This would be like skaven Clanrats hitting as hard as reiksguard but your still able to field 3x the amount of skaven than your opponent can field with any other faction that isn't a horde army.

Can I buy and download it at midnight tonight?

Super vidéo !

You probably know this, but the breath attack for Elspeth is specifically for single target. It is MUCH better at snipping individual targets.

THE EMPEROR PROTECTS

Knifes edge battle!!
