  • Few more beginner tips, maybe some a little bit advanced: 1.) Trade Agreements. Get them with as many factions you can (that you don't plan on going to war with). These can double your income per turn, and you have zero military obligations to the factions you are trading with, other than not attacking them. 2.) Do NOT group your units too closely together. The AI likes to do this, but you should always spread all of your units out a little bit for a few reasons. a.) It makes units a little bit easier to see and control when in combat. b). It makes you hard to flank and c.) It prevents your entire army from being decimated by certain artillery and magic. Which brings me to my next tip: 3.) Magic! Understanding how and when to use magic, and how the winds of magic works, is definitely an advanced mechanic. But as a TWW3 player, you NEED to learn this. Magic can and will single handedly turn the tide of battles time and time again, and it is not uncommon to see wizards with 400+ kills after every battle. TL;DR: If you can put a wizard type hero in your army, do it. It is always worth it. Which brings me to my LAST tip: 4.) Heros! Heros are single entity units that can be placed in an army or used on the campaign map for functions your lord wouldn't do. Heros have MANY functions, but all heros level up just like your lords. They are incredibly versatile and can make both campaign and battles easier. Some heros can even destroy enemy cities without a battle (on the campaign map, looking at you Lord Kroak). They take up a unit slot in your army, but usually they are a worth it to place in your army as most of them are both potent in battle and buff your army in some way. I have over 3500 hours among the TW:WH games, and I think that covers most of the basic stuff. If I missed anything, please let me know. Have fun!
  • Most important tip: Immortal Empires over Realms of Chaos campaign.
  • @Azhalan
    Probably my favourite game ever.
  • @wcfromaz
    Absolutely love the game, and so glad to see you're covering it in your impressive style!
  • @Dnote113
    Seriously, I cannot suggest this game enough! It is incredible!!!
  • Now that there are tons of mods in the workshop I've been enjoying the game more. There are some seriously fleshed out characters and overhauls, visual tweaks, and lots of ways to add more flavor to the game. I love legendary texts, point of interests, landmarks of legend, Legendary Characters, mixu's Legendary lords, Ovn series, Rotblood, Pestilens etc etc

    Instead of focusing on money, you should instead focus on growth since it is the basis for everything. Growth bring more money, more control, more buildings so more money , etc ...
  • @Roboytron
    3000 hours across all three games. Favorite game series ever.
  • @frostiesr345
    Just picked it up off steam, even bought some dlcs to go with it lol
  • @bigchunk1
    I learned the hard way what ignoring diplomacy can do.
  • @Skret2
    Well... Disbanding units is double edged sword. AI looks at your army/faction strength. If they think you are weak, they will bully you or attack you. So it's quite improtant to have big armies in the game. Diplomacy of bigger army is always right is kinda bread and butted in TW series.

    Damn, I had no idea this was published by Sega. On a separate note, do I need to buy past games to unlock all game content?
