I don't mind them having the same units because that is exactly how they are in the Lore but what I do want is either the Chaos to work like Beastmen and build a Chaos Shrine and have some sort of Sacrifice Ground where settlements can't be re-colonised when in it or the ability to Occupy settlements like the Demons because the Campaign isn't fun when the Empire and High Elf armies constantly run past your armies to re-colonise ruins and you have no way to stop them making the Campaign very tedius.

Kohlek's boys could be steely, spiky and adorned with lightning insignia while Sartael's need that bluewish hue, the twisted armor and those slightly too many eye holes in their helmets.

Of the marauder tribes, the Kurgan have the largest representation among the Chaos warrior ranks. Kurgan are known to in general be the biggest and most mutated of the tribes, so it makes sense that the majority of marauders that become Chaos warriors come from their tribe.

I think that they should implement some degree of "Endgame crisis" like Stellaris for endgame in immortal empires. Something at random between different scenarios like Chaos invasion, Undead plague, Greenskin invasion of sort. To me it's one of the best sistems ever seen in a 4x game and it would be easily implementable in warhammer total war, they did that in Medieval with Huns.

The problem with Chaos was more so in the campaign map. Their economy is a bit meh but the worse problem is creating a second army. As a horde faction they grow so slow. Best way to get population faster is by raids and razing cities. Trouble is by the time you create a second army who are level 1, you took out the easier targets with your main army, and since its midgame, Ai will have better units. And you can't just hand over good units your second army they will cost double or so for not having the appropriate buildings. They need more of a rework there to give them a momentum

Thank the gods for dealing with the war pony situation! Also it would be cool to see this expanded to allowing unit knockdown to cav units sufficiently smaller than what they are charged by. Poor empire riders having to get up and run back to their mount. Or even chaos knights getting unseated by a dragon.

Archeon should have had a little extra from each of the chaos gods, as befitting their ever chosen: Khorne: non-spell fire attacks and magic dampening against anyone he fights Tzeench: barrier and a Tzeench spell of his choice OR magical damage on his melee Slaanesh: Devestating Flanker and 1 spell from here of your choice as well OR extra speed Nurgle: passive regeneration and a spell of Nurgle of your choice OR non-spell poison attacks.

Didn't CA say there would be a variety of possible "End Times" events? Like there'd still be the Chaos invasion, but also a massive Orc Waaagh or a sudden eruption of Skaven.

Ooo an idea I had for Archeon is his magic should reflect his allegiance to all the gods by giving him a spell from each god lore. Like in the campaign you can get more or limit to just campaign and have a set 4 in battles and keep the new lores he has now

I wonder if they will lock requirement of demons behind a campaign mechanic. Like dedicate enough settlements to a specific god, like Norsca can do, and then have the option to recruit your own demons from that god.

We know already that Norsca are getting regular settlement management with no more outpost mechanic, so warriors of chaos will get it too, afterall they already occupy settlements in WH3

regarding your last point: they said that they will implement many different late game szenarios that will be picked random each playthrough. i guess "the end times" is still one of them. other people guessed that something with nagash will happen and seeing the amount of contestants in the thunderdome i cann see that as well

It's pretty evident that the new DLC will add Chosen / Chaos warriors for each of the gods. This is why the Tzeentch Chaos Knight model got updated because it's most likely the model they will use for the Tzeentch Chosen. Furthermore, CA confirmed in their recent QnA that marks of chaos (one for each god) could be added to a number of units, and each mark would change the aesthetics of that unit. So it's basically confirmed that we'll get nurgle-themed CWs and Chosen.

Awesome! The Marks of Chaos system is exactly what we were all asking for!

What i like the most of this super rework is that you can confederate the two greatest champions of chaos Be'lakor and Archaon, and of course also Kholek and Sigvald, and i think you can do it in two ways the classic diplomacy or spending souls the new unique resource of the Warriors of Chaos, in others words almost the same as with the Beastmen rework.

As Felix slowly woke up the room barely had any light for there was only three torches within a vast Hall he noticed Gotrek unconscious and then to his horror web like webs wrapped around him as well as Lance too had them all wrapped around him as well then he realized the witch hunter was in a coma of sort For his eyes was like in a translucent white staring upwards in the very blackness of the dark abyss of the ceiling then he seen his shadow looking at him for the first time It scared Felix for it was watching him back with white translucent eyes Smiling as it lingered around Lance like a snake then it disappeared back within his own shadow then Felix looked around and saw dozens of human remains of Bones of other adventurers around the Great Hall Then Felix heard scudling noises as the smooth Stone service vibrated and echoed with tapping noises of the stone floor then Felix's heart felt like it dropped to his stomach for he saw six glowing red eyes staring right back at him he tried to move But he couldn't for he was wrapped with the same web's that was wrapped around his very companions As Felix watch those very six glowing red eyes go towards Gotrek Slowly methodically then out of the shadows it revealed what it was within the light for it was a huge dark spider as it's fangs protrude out of its face the sharp Fangs glistered With toxic venom pouring down the fangs like they were raindrops As spider got closer to the Slayer Felix realized he had to do something but he didn't know how for he was stuck in the webs and his weapon was nowhere to be seen he looked around and then he saw his sword and Gotrek axe wrapped around webbing Then Felix yelled at the spider get away from him then it slowly turned looking at Felix and then it spoke through in his mind like a normal conversation Are you talking to me with a sensual lustful voice of a mature woman the spider spoke Felix realize it was talking to him how was this possible he answered back yes you do not want the dwarf for he is sick and not very good tasting Then Felix realize he was setting himself up for failure as he just implied to him self that he was just as tasty . Then the spider replied oh are you saying that you are more better to take his place for you do look like you have the quality of a fine meal Look about you My blonde hair pray And she started sculling her way towards Felix her eyes looked at him Inching slower to him as she was taking her time for where could he go and what could he do to get out of her web she had all the Time in the World to play her little game with him Felix heart was beating hard his adrenaline was pumping as if he could fly into the air he wanted to scream but couldn't for he was scared to arouse the spider to attack him just when she was about to reach him Lance spoke out with a methodical lustful voice towards the spider Excuse me I believe that your business is with me Mistress of the web the spider turned its head around towards Lance Oh and who you might be my beautiful prey as she flexed her fangs for I am Lance von strickett At Your service and please to meet you You show so much respect and such a find gentleman she scurried towards Lance oh now I understand who you are for my master told me all about you he said to be careful around you Lance Your master speaks the truth Mistress of the web for a predator just like you I know the hunger pains that drive you every night for you wait patiently for your prey as do I Am I right the spider stood there quietly then she replied yes you are right it is hard to find such victims like you that I find you interesting for you do not bore me with the scream's and then begging Then Lance smiled lustful look he stared into all six eyes Come now Mistress of the web for I would love to give you a drink how about it Oh Lance I feel aroused by your offer I think I will accept Felix looked on in surprised and Horror for Lance was about to sacrifice himself to the spider as he thought to himself was this madness or sheer selflessness Of bravery or he just did not care about his own life anymore Then Felix yelled you fool what are you doing then the spider looked at Felix and hissed at him as she was about to go towards him when Lance yelled out mistress do not insult my invitation be a good hostess and forget about him After all I promise you a drink and you insult my hospitality is this how you treat all your prey with such disrespect then the spider stopped I'm so sorry I forgot myself for your friend insulted me I am sorry Lance I forgot my place and you're right where were we She started heading towards back to the witch hunter then Felix close his eyes as he braced himself to hear the screams from Lance's body being drain a way of his life essence She's climbed right on top of Lance as her fangs bar downwards towards his chest then Lance replied simply Beautiful before essence taker plunge from the dark ceiling As the sword pierced through her back then Lance tore through the webbing of her webs grabbing a hold of the spider and biting her in the side of the neck the spider let out a huge hiss of pain Then essence taker pulled out of the spiders back and into Lance's hand as of witch hunter plunged essence taker through the spider's face then she screamed out Lord kurgan I failed you as her body conversed and spasm before all six of her legs closed in inward where she laid lifeless Then Lance turned around and looked at Felix wiping the spider's blood off his face as he smiled now that was a femme fatale if I ever saw one for those ones are very dangerous heer Felix remember that Then the Witch Hunter cut down his webs and recover his companions weapons as Gotrek woke up ripping the spider webs off him like they were nothing looking around wondering what just happened What happened manling's Felix looked at the Slayer you don't want to know Gotrek as Lance smiled a mischief grin he looked at the Slayer and replied let's just say heer Felix Had a dinner date that will never forget as Lance went silently up the stairs into kurgan's keep and then the Slayer looked right at Felix with a confused look as Gotrek pull Felix out of the webs to catch up with Lance into the keep we're more unknown dangerous awaited them

You know, Zerkovich, I was just thinking that what with the Champions of Chaos DLC coming this August 23rd, along with the Immortal Empires Map, and especially the Warriors of Chaos Rework that includes the Mark of Chaos Mechanic, I might be able to, say, play as the Warriors of Chaos in custom battles and possible test out any of the marked Chaos Knights in my roster, the two that I'm thinking about being the Chaos Knights of Khorne with Lances and The Chaos Knights of Nurgle, and see how they would test on the battlefield.

Pretty sure they said in the Q&A that chaos invasion is no longer a thing. They gave that as their reasoning for not doing the dark elf watch towers.

Looks good, especially the updated models. But as you said, they need a clear separator from Demons of Chaos to keep a distinct playstyle.

Heres an idea for a better chaos invasion. Instead of having the death blob like in warhammer 2, imagine theres different paths the chaos invasion ai take. Say one army per "war path". These "war paths" are routes to certain settlements throughout the Immortal Empires map, in a specific order. The ai could be made to beeline to the settlements, thus preventing death blobs. The amount of armies could increase in waves too.

Or at least a Chaos army targeting every major faction. Not just one part of the map, I like the dark elves so I always get hit hard by chaos first.

"A mix of fire, death and metal" I would totally listen to this album

I hope the factions are limited to what they can recruit, as I just feel it would make Monogod factions redundant.

I think it will be similar to how daemons of chaos are handled, more of a jack of all trades master of none while mono gods are all about making their specific strengths as big as possible.

Yeah, same. I feel like it'd also make sense lore-wise (Not that I'm an expert) WoC roster are still mainly human/mortal so the number of Daemons and amount of control they exert over them would be limited.

I really hope Archaon has his mount from AOS. Secret mount for him

I wanna see an Update to gear that's gained by quest battles like that every legendary lord has 5 of them and that the quest battles are like sometimes more late game and harder to get

This looks like a test for how Death with work, particularly Nagash's legion

Damn I was really hoping archaon would get his dragon

I’m in love with these changes

They said in the Q&A that Chaos Invasions are not in IE.

I hope that alongside the new mono-god Warriors, they will take advantage of this update to add mono-god Beastmen!

I hope Archaon is as big a beast as he’s meant to be and his faction is a genuine threat to think about regardless of where you are in the world

The warriors of Zeentch are nice, like very nice as a particular youtuber complained how they didn't look Zeentchy at first.

yes Archaon is standing different, he was stadning a bit crouched in like he was going to take a shit

hopefully it still is a horde thing but with the fun aspects of Taurox's campaign, especially the low downtime

The 4 limit sounds like the allied units system from the Warhammer 3 campaign.

Seeing all this good work makes me excited for Norsca.

just the horses and new tzeentch warrior models have me hyped as fuck, they look so nice

That Tzeentchian Chaos Knights... *chief kiss*

I honestly like it. It really opens up o the play style a bit. I would like to see new units added. Good rework. Good video

The chaos ponies are more thematically correct because steppe ponies tended to be smaller. Steppe ponies were more useful since they could survive off of grazing while being on campaign, while modern horses require fodder if you want any useful work out of them. If you recognize that "Chaos" are the tatars, wreaking havoc on the Chinese, Europe, most especially Russia, and emerging from seemingly nowhere (Central Asia, modern day "stan" land and Siberia), then smaller, slower ponies make more sense. But of course while strategically Chaos are like the Tatars, their armies are definitely not. Kislev are actually more like the historical tatars by playstyle, which is kinda right since by the 1400s Russian militaries had completely mirrored the khanates.

I was hoping marks of Choas would change the Warriors of chaos into different units. They need to also add some Nurgle mortals because atm there are none

That's literally what this is, and agreed nurgle needs love badly it's on track to be one of the worst

Love the update, cant wait for a chaos campaign starting off with Be'lakor.

The new chaos invasion should be done by increasing the relations of all chaos factions. The chaos factions will slowly unite until all factions that cause chaos corruption are allied. It would be nice to have several weaker armies spawn across the world to raid. This would force each faction to secure their own territory before they could unite to appose chaos. The empire, bretonnia, high elves, lizardmen, dwarfs, kislev, and Cathay would be pushed to a military alliance against chaos, while the tomb kings, wood elves, dark elves, and vampires would push for non aggression packs. They would eventually seek alliances as chaos unites and grows stronger. Orks, ogres, and skaven just act normally.

Where I was hoping for changes was in the campaign. WoC was the first campaign I finished, and it was a SLOG trying to pin down the AI when they were resettling 2 settlements for every one I razed.

I'm definitely leaning towards the idea that completing your mid game victory will give you the power to unleash end game level havoc on the world.

"double the number of hitpoints" enthousiastic voice: They are now a little bit tougher.

Im' not really one for visuals in a strategy game, but DAMN ! The upgrades looking nice, be it units or spells, damn ! GG CA guys !

I honestly probably still wouldn't play them much, but that's not because they look bad, just that I like other factions' styles better. As a whole, this looks to be a MASSIVE improvement with a lot of cool things going on. I think my favorite thing might be the cross-faction lords feature. Having the option to run some of the lords in either WoC or one of the Demon factions is a really cool idea, and I'm curious as to who else they could use that for.

I want to see Nurgle Chaos Warriors

They said in the immortal empires interview/promo video that the chaos invasion mechanic is gone.

I don't think they'll lose their identity. I mean, you have the chosen. Great Frontline Units and now can you take Skullcrushers for example and smash their flanks. Or even those slaanesh riders, who does extra flanking damage. Or getting the enemy infantry rooted with your chosen and take your doom knights to crush the archers and artillery. There are now so many variaties, i love it.

An update worthy of the Warriors of Chaos!

I'm so unbelievably hyped for archaon and the warriors of chaos

Fantastic visual changes! Zerk, when you say Sarthorael can now also play in the Tzeentch forces, do you mean you can play a Tzeentch campaign with him as the leader?

Maybe you can recruit them after eliminating their faction in Campaign. That'd be kind of cool.

I'm all for it. Splitting Warriors, Daemons of Chaos and Beastmen into separate factions always felt like more of a cash-grab rather than a good game design move, in my opinion, and so bringing Chaos back together so that they can field a truly huge amount of variety is exactly how they used to play on tabletop in the earlier versions of Fantasy Battle. Chaos are supposed to be chaotic, and this really allows the Chaos player to go wild with their army builds.

It's been 6 years?a damn, time flies

You say they might lose their identity and me more similar to the Daemons. I say, the Daemons don't got a chance against my Doomstack of Chosen!
