Watch the launch trailer here :
THE SKULL TAKER, THE HERO KILLER (KHORNE)
The immortal champion of Khorne and the most powerful of all the Sanguinaires, the Skull Taker is always on the lookout for skulls worthy of offering to his master. Scanning the battlefield for the enemy’s greatest champion, he issues a resounding challenge before racing off to end another storied existence.
Campaign feature:
- Skull Cloak: the Skull Taker must hunt down and defeat powerful enemy lords across the heroic pantheon of the Warhammer world. Each skull added to his cape allows him to acquire or improve formidable abilities and traits.
Battle play style:
- A demonic force of destruction, the Skull Taker is a master at stalking and dueling enemy lords, before mowing down opposing troops with his two-handed Killer’s Sword. His passive ability, Cape of Skulls, boosts his spell resistance and ultimate toughness as he accumulates victims.
New units :
- New units from the Blood God realm enter the fray, including two Legendary Heroes – Skarr Bloodwrath and Scyla Anfingrimm – accompanied by a wave of acolytes including Sanguinorators, Carnabrutes, Skull Reapers, Bloody Beasts, Enrageurs and Khorngors.
GORBAD GRIFF’ EUD’ FER, THE CRUEL UNIFIER (ORCS & GOBLINS)
One of the most infamous and renowned Orc warlords, Gorbad Griff’ Eud’ Fer knows only one language: that of war. Unusually for an Orc, he combines wit and strength, becoming a source of inspiration for his fellows thanks to his “well-born invasions”.
Campaign features:
- The Plan: A formidable tactician (for an Orc), Gorbad experiments with unique battle strategies with his armies, offering a lethal combination of battle bonuses and exotic army compositions capable of overcoming any challenge.
Battle play style:
- Plunging into the thick of battle on the back of his ferocious War Boar, Gnarla, Gorbad pierces enemy lines with devastating charges before launching into the fray with his mighty axe, Morglor “the Equarisseuse”. His “Eul’ Grand Chief” ability activates when troops are nearby, increasing defense and melee attack.
New units:
- New units join the Waaagh of Gorbad, including the legendary hero Snagla l’Glaviot, accompanied by a motley crew of warriors including the Great Wild Orc Shaman, the Great Night Goblin Chieftain, the Black Orc (Axe and Shield), the Crusher Squigs, the Colossal Squig, the Arachnarok (Spearman) and the Ballista.
MAN-EATING GOLGFAG, THE MERCENARY (OGRE KINGDOMS)
Among the most formidable Ogre mercenaries of all time, Golgfag the Man-Eater gave Ogres a reputation as fearsome hitmen long before their presence in mercenary armies the world over became relatively commonplace.
Campaign features:
- Mercenary contracts: always ready to line his pockets with gold, Golgfag helps his clients throughout the WARHAMMER world to settle their warring quarrels by getting involved in all the conflicts in which they are involved and carrying out hostile operations against their enemies, in return for generous rewards.
Battle style:
- An infantry crusher, Golgfag slaughters enemy troops with barbaric weapons. His globetrotting side also gives him access to a variety of exotic abilities, including Hawkeye, which enables him to fire a powerful pistol shot that inflicts enormous damage.
New units :
- New units join Golgfag’s mercenary brigade, including legendary hero Bragg the Groper, as well as the Ogre Commander, the Cogneur, the Golgfag Man-Eaters, the Pig Riders, the Blood Vultures, the Yetis and the Megastodons.
FREE CONTENT :
Included free with the release of Patch 6.0, the 100th Legendary Lord of Total War: WARHAMMER, Arbaal the Undefeated, the champion of Khorne who has seen thousands of victims fall beneath the scarlet blade of his axe. In addition, a faction update will be implemented for the Ogre Kingdoms, Khorne and Orcs & Goblins.
