00:30e simon the man
00:32hello
00:34so we're going to show you the ambush at the thundering falls
00:37you'll be able to play as the dwarfs
00:38as high king thorgrim grudge bearer
00:41and you'll be facing off
00:43against knob nails backbiter
00:46that's right
00:47so we're going to hop right in
00:49and talk you through some of the units
00:50that you will be playing with
00:54and just a reminder
00:55everything that you see here is pre-alpha
00:57footage so it may be subject to change
01:00march on brave dowie
01:02march on
01:04to the cursed realms of the groby
01:07we go
01:07i know not what mischief they cause
01:11but they're up to something
01:12for my beard hitches with trouble
01:15we take the
01:17underway
01:17these ancient highways
01:20built by dwarf hands
01:22give us the best chance of approaching
01:24swiftly
01:25catching the green skins unawares
01:28let us not dawdle
01:31for there are grudges to settle
01:33and new entries
01:35in the damaskron
01:37to write
01:41okay you can see the dwarven throng arrayed on the hill here
01:45led by
01:45there he is
01:46high king thorgrim grudge bear himself
01:48actually reading from the damaskron
01:50right in front of him
01:51the great book of grudges
01:52joined by fane as well
01:54this is one of the agents
01:55this is a melee agent
01:56so he does
01:56runs around the campaign map
01:57does actions
01:58can be attached to an army
01:59and gets stuck in with the rest of the dwarves
02:01so they're a very defensive army
02:03as you can see
02:04I mean they're great artificers
02:06they create these wonderful cannons
02:08which are really you know
02:09some of the most potent
02:10in the old world
02:11so like the flame cannon here
02:13which spews these kind of
02:14superheated packets of oil and tar
02:17doing big splash damage
02:18organ guns here
02:19kind of repeater cannons
02:20great against massed infantry
02:22iron drakes
02:23with these big
02:24sort of underslung
02:25alchemical flamethrowers
02:26look they even got beard armour
02:28because you know
02:29who wants to singe your beard
02:30when you've got a flamethrower
02:31that's not good
02:31so
02:33thunderers here
02:34kind of like marksmen
02:35good armour piercing ability as well
02:37so you know
02:38useful against heavily armoured units
02:39and quarrelers
02:40crossbowmen as well
02:41now slayers
02:43these guys are pretty cool
02:44yeah totally
02:45they're unbreakable
02:47so they're kind of berserkers effectively
02:49and if you look at the panel
02:50on the side here
02:51it says anti-large
02:52so they're useful
02:53against the big monsters
02:54so we're going to get those
02:55torah in against those
02:57we've got lots of dwarf warriors as well
02:59who are excellent in melee
03:00and you know
03:01can really really take a charge
03:02really well
03:03as I said
03:04very very sort of defensive army
03:05so
03:06I'm going to get them all set up now
03:09so I'm going to go for a pretty standard
03:11defensive formation
03:12because
03:12we are going to be
03:13attacked by
03:16waves
03:16waves
03:17and waves
03:18and waves
03:18of greenskins
03:19so
03:20and they're all going to be coming
03:21you know
03:22there's a main kind of force
03:23in the distance over there
03:24but we're also going to
03:25see them pouring out
03:26of these kind of side roads
03:27that they've overtaken
03:28a bit of the
03:29ancient dwarven
03:31stronghold there
03:32but yeah
03:33out of these side roads
03:34they are just going to come
03:35wave after wave
03:35so
03:36I'm going to stand
03:37and defend as best I can
03:39so
03:39right
03:40that's those guys set up
03:41let's get my
03:42ranged chaps
03:43on the hill here
03:45can actually get
03:45both my units
03:46of iron drakes
03:47over this side
03:49but you know
03:49it may surprise you to hear
03:50I've played this battle
03:51once or twice
03:52so I know where they're coming from
03:53nice
03:54so is that cheating
03:55it isn't
03:56good
03:57good
03:59excellent
03:59right
03:59oops
04:00although if you lose
04:01it will be egg on your face
04:03oh yeah
04:03oh yes
04:04we won't let you live it down
04:05it wouldn't be the first time
04:07so I'm going to keep those guys
04:08in reserve as well
04:09right let's get started
04:10good luck Al
04:11thank you
04:12right let's do a little bit
04:13of early manoeuvring
04:15get these guys out in the field
04:17so they're not going to get shot
04:18in their back
04:18by my own gunners
04:19yeah I have
04:21taken a lot of damage
04:22from friendly fire
04:23especially with the iron drakes
04:25yeah
04:26but kind of
04:26as with previous battle war games
04:28it is very much about
04:29using the terrain
04:29that's especially true
04:30for the dwarves
04:31right
04:31like all the dwarves damage
04:32or most of it at least
04:33comes from their ranged units
04:35their like cannons
04:36and their kind of
04:37quarrelers
04:37and kind of like
04:38all those different
04:39than the thunderers
04:40the thunderers
04:40at the thundering force
04:42that's where all their
04:43damage comes from
04:43but their melee line
04:44is very good at
04:45holding off enemy advances
04:47so that's kind of
04:47what it is
04:47they're kind of a
04:48two-part army
04:49it's about like
04:49kind of defending the line
04:50while using your range units
04:52to just deal that
04:52heavy damage hit
04:54oh so you've got
04:55is that a couple of
04:56ranged units at the back
04:57there but mostly
04:58goblin spearmen
05:00yeah there's a lot
05:00of goblin spearmen
05:01a lot of goblin archers
05:02in this battle
05:02oh look
05:03iron drake's firing
05:04oh lovely
05:05and drake's dealing a lot
05:06of damage there
05:06so
05:06they're hitting hard
05:08and they're also good
05:09in units of goblins
05:11but they are
05:11easy to route
05:13right
05:14so you'll see here
05:15the goblin spider eyes
05:16are actually trying to
05:16kind of find gaps
05:17in your formations
05:18to try and hit
05:19the kind of range units
05:20around your back
05:20so you know
05:21they'll very much
05:21be trying to
05:22flank you
05:24in order to take out
05:24your range units
05:25you know
05:25they're very good
05:26at picking the
05:27soft targets
05:28oh god
05:29this is completely
05:30ruining themselves
05:31rather quickly
05:31so as the dwarves
05:32you've got to be
05:33really kind of
05:33aware of what's going
05:34well I suppose
05:35anyone's got to be
05:35very aware
05:36oh man
05:36right
05:37oh no
05:37straight smoke
05:38range units
05:39you know as the dwarves
05:39if you lose your range units
05:40you're actually in a lot of trouble
05:41because you're not dealing
05:42the damage you need to deal
05:43to counter the enemy's
05:44kind of forces
05:45so that red icon
05:46that was just there
05:47on the left
05:47so when you click that
05:49it will take you
05:49exactly to that
05:50where the ambush
05:51is coming from
05:51so you can see
05:52what you're up against
05:53we also display that
05:54on the battlefield
05:54as well right
05:55so you can actually
05:56see its location
05:56you can just sort of
05:57glance over and go
05:58oh okay
05:58that's where they're coming from
06:00so yeah another wave coming
06:01from the side here
06:02oh fine
06:02what is that
06:06and some doom divers as well
06:09great
06:10so this is something
06:11that's very kind of
06:11particular to quest battles
06:12as well you know
06:13we're bringing reinforcements
06:14at you from lots of angles
06:15that maybe you wouldn't
06:16normally see from a campaign game
06:17because we're actually in
06:19control of kind of
06:19where the enemy comes from
06:21like kind of where the
06:22deployment areas are
06:23we're able to kind of
06:23throw some curveballs at you
06:25to kind of try and keep
06:25the challenge
06:26like interesting for it
06:27basically
06:30I really like how sneaky
06:31the AI is being
06:38form these guys back up
06:39you know fortunately
06:40I did alright here
06:41because even dwarf
06:43ranged units are like
06:44they're pretty heavily
06:44armoured so
06:47you can come back as well
06:49they were chasing some guys
06:50off the field there
06:51because you know
06:52these points at the back
06:53and the side
06:53they also count as kind of
06:55exit points for routers
06:57well that's the interesting
06:57thing because
06:58for the first time
06:59I think in a total war game
07:00you've actually got
07:00non-square playable areas
07:01right like you're fighting
07:02in the orphan underway here
07:03and as you can see
07:04it's a kind of long tunnel
07:06but there are points
07:07for your units to route out
07:08and for reinforcements
07:09to come kind of
07:10around the map
07:10as it were
07:11so you get some
07:11interesting battles
07:15uh oh
07:16what's that
07:17from the rear owl
07:20what's coming in
07:21did some trolls
07:22so we've got some trolls
07:23lumbering
07:24so trolls are a monstrous unit
07:26and a giant
07:27it's something that
07:28Alan can really leverage
07:29his slayers and actually
07:30do a lot of damage
07:31if you choose to
07:31it's slay it
07:32it's slayer o'clock
07:34actually I'm going to bring
07:35my thunders up as well
07:36because they're quite good
07:37armour piercing
07:38and you know
07:39there's trolls
07:39and that giant
07:40are pretty
07:41yeah armour piercing
07:42is definitely useful here
07:43but I mean
07:44that info panel
07:44on the left hand side
07:45is really useful
07:46to see kind of
07:47that extra bit of translation
07:49if you're not totally familiar
07:50with the warhammer fantasy
07:51battle universe
07:52that will give you
07:53a good indication
07:54of what's good against
07:56which unit
07:56so the slayers are
07:58anti-large
07:59so Al's putting them
08:00in against the giant
08:01watch this
08:01wee
08:02I love the way
08:03once again
08:03like the kind of
08:04charging stuff
08:05the way units
08:05kind of leap in
08:06so the slayers
08:06will kind of leap in
08:07with both axes
08:08and slice
08:09but the giant's
08:09going to be dealing
08:10a lot of damage
08:10but since there's
08:11so many of the slayers
08:12they're surrounding him
08:13and hitting the giant
08:14on lots of different sides
08:15so kind of
08:16they're dealing
08:16little damage over time
08:17whereas the giant
08:17is kind of
08:18one massive hit
08:19of damage
08:20with massive knockback
08:22so you know
08:23they're taking damage
08:23from it
08:24but they're going
08:24to be whittling
08:25down its health
08:25very quickly
08:27so if Al hovers
08:28over it now
08:28you can probably
08:29see it's got quite
08:29low health
08:30oh Al is gone
08:31down
08:32look at that
08:35excellent
08:36once again
08:37the character
08:37in all the animations
08:38is absolutely
08:39oh he's got those
08:39routing as well
08:40oh they're
08:41they're right
08:42they're look
08:43they're right
08:44up in the thunderers
08:45this is not good
08:47right
08:48Thorgrim
08:49holding the line
08:49at the front there
08:50keeping the troops
08:51keeping the troops
08:52happy obviously
08:52so Thorgrim also
08:53has his general Zora
08:54right
08:55like generally
08:55when you press down
08:56space or something
08:56you can see
08:57the general Zora
08:58but we've also
08:59added some new features
08:59so on the right
09:00there as you'll see
09:01like you can now
09:02toggle on and off
09:02features on spacebar
09:03but then also
09:04lock them
09:05so even when spacebar
09:06isn't held
09:06you can see your
09:07general Zora
09:08for example
09:08and things like that
09:09it's just kind of
09:09little ways
09:10we're letting you
09:11kind of customise
09:11the UI to your
09:12play style
09:13and get it
09:13so you could show
09:14health bars
09:15for every single unit
09:16for example
09:16and stuff like that
09:17so yeah
09:17it's actually quite cool
09:18right
09:19it looks like the big
09:20the big forces
09:22at the distance
09:22are on the move
09:23as well now
09:24so let's get everybody
09:26ready for a big frontal attack
09:27look they're still
09:28chopping away
09:28oh they're going down
09:29look they're wavering
09:31they're still turning
09:34oh my poor
09:36but your air support
09:37has arrived
09:38oh fantastic
09:40let's get over there
09:41right
09:42right
09:42so these are some
09:43of my favourite
09:44dwarfing units
09:44these are the
09:45dwarfing gyrocopters
09:46and you know
09:47they rely on machines
09:48they haven't got any
09:49magic or anything like that
09:50so they're relying on
09:50these fast moving units
09:52to make up for
09:53their lack of ability
09:54on the battlefield
09:55so they're able to fly around
09:56deal a lot of damage
09:57with their guns
09:58but they also have
09:59a special ability
10:00which is to be able
10:01to drop bombs
10:02so that when you press
10:03the ability button
10:03which is on the
10:04bottom left hand side
10:05you can actually
10:06drop bombs at the location
10:07of your gyrocopters
10:08oh I see
10:09you know what
10:09I'm going to get them over here
10:10you can actually kind of
10:10do your own little
10:11bombing run basically
10:12kind of flying across
10:13the enemy
10:13and just drop the bombs
10:14at the right time
10:15see that would be useful
10:16right at the far back
10:17where there's quite a large line
10:18and so they've got to be
10:20directly above
10:20to benefit from the bombs
10:22exactly yeah
10:22so it's kind of
10:23it's a bit of a skill shot
10:25so if you line them up
10:26like that
10:26you can see there
10:29you can see
10:30you can see the
10:31the movement icons
10:32on the floor there
10:32so if I line them up
10:33in a good spot
10:34hopefully they won't
10:35oh they've moved
10:36they've moved
10:37perhaps they know
10:37what's coming
10:38let's do that
10:40let's get down there
10:41right grenade time
10:42off you go
10:44oh that is satisfying
10:46I'm going to drop
10:46a second load as well
10:47there we are
10:50that's killed it
10:51that's killed a few of them
10:51they'll knock their morale
10:52a bit as well
10:53so you know
10:54useful
10:55so from experience
10:56with the gyrocopters
10:57it's best to kind of
10:58fly behind and shoot
11:00from behind a unit
11:01yeah it's like
11:03generally best to kind of
11:04yeah kind of be away
11:05and sort of try to target
11:07kind of their land units
11:08the units that can't hit you
11:09right
11:09anything that's a melee unit
11:11is not going to be able
11:11to run up and smack you
11:13so you want to stay away
11:14from their range
11:15because their range
11:15can actually take you down
11:16like if Al were to leave
11:18them all in range
11:19of the enemy archers
11:19like he's doing right now
11:20like he would actually
11:22find that his gyrocopters
11:22get routed and killed
11:23very quickly
11:24because actually
11:25they're quite weak
11:26against range
11:26right
11:26you know range units
11:27take down flying units
11:28arrows pepper them
11:29you know
11:29they kind of eventually fall
11:30but melee units
11:32you know
11:32there's not really
11:33too much counter
11:33and what was that
11:34orange
11:35is that
11:35is that a nightshade
11:37and curse of the bad moon
11:38oh
11:39it's all gone wrong
11:40oh it's all
11:41it's all gone over there
11:42though so
11:42it doesn't look like this
11:43so when curse of the bad moon
11:44is cast of course
11:45it kind of moves
11:46in a random direction
11:47so sometimes it works to you
11:48sometimes it won't
11:49obviously it's a vortex
11:50well right
11:51so it's like
11:51oh I see
11:52there's nod nails
11:53look he's
11:54looks like he's used his magic
11:55and he's got stuck in
11:56straight into the melee
11:57wow
11:57this is interesting
11:59oh well
12:00he's fighting some routing troops
12:01but
12:01he's seizing an opportunity
12:03he's got my long beard on him
12:04so
12:04so that arachnrock
12:05is still running around
12:06dealing damage
12:07similar to the giant
12:07like it's really
12:08kind of large damage
12:09dealing unit there
12:10so it's going to be
12:11we've added goblins
12:13firing down
12:13from his back
12:14which is
12:15so thorgrim's taking damage there
12:17so like
12:17as I can see there
12:18he's got a potion of healing
12:19which he can cast himself
12:20this will give him
12:21regen over time
12:22so it'll start kind of
12:23regenning some of the health
12:24that he's lost in battle
12:25so you know
12:25kind of timed use of this
12:26because it's a one use item
12:27right like
12:28once you've drunk it
12:29there's no more to drunk
12:30like so
12:30so you know
12:31he's got to pick the right time
12:32to use it as well
12:33is that the ruby ring?
12:33that is
12:34that's actually
12:35the firing ring of floddy
12:36oh
12:37so
12:37awesome
12:40yeah so like
12:41characters from campaign
12:41are picking up these items
12:42and then able to bring them
12:44and use them in battle
12:45to kind of help fight
12:45awesome
12:46these situations
12:47it's obviously been used
12:48to a good effect there
12:50I mean considering
12:51there's that bit of narrative
12:52that with the named characters
12:54I guess you want to keep them alive
12:55so those
12:56those health potions
12:57is definitely beneficial
12:58yeah like
12:59it really does help
13:00I mean as I say
13:00since they're immortal
13:01they're only wounded
13:02but you know
13:03them falling in battle
13:04is a big thing right
13:04like the enemy's going to take
13:05a really large morale
13:07like you're going to take
13:08a large morale penalty
13:09even from them falling
13:10yeah exactly
13:11you know losing Thorgrim
13:12in a battle like this
13:12he's kind of a charismatic leader
13:14you know
13:14the dwarfs rely on the discipline
13:16and holding together
13:16when he falls
13:18they've kind of lost all that
13:19so keeping him alive
13:20is actually very important
13:21yeah absolutely
13:21then he's also a really good
13:23damage dealer
13:23so you've got to
13:24kind of make that choice
13:25between you know
13:26do I throw him in there
13:27where he's going to be useful
13:27or you know
13:28do I risk him
13:29do you know what I mean
13:30so you've got to
13:30kind of choose between them
13:31but then you've got heroes
13:32like the Thane
13:33that Al's got there
13:35so like you know
13:35the Thane is really good as well
13:36you know kind of similar power
13:38to someone like Thorgrim
13:40if I lose Thorgrim here
13:41I'm going to be in trouble
13:42you will be in a lot of trouble
13:45get the charge on
13:48there you go
13:48so you can see the longbeards
13:49charging in there
13:50oh no
13:50run away Thorgrim
13:53I love their beard animation
13:56it's just fantastic
13:58they're dusting the ground
14:00with their beards
14:01as they run
14:01there are some
14:02absolutely epic beards
14:03going down
14:03oh yeah
14:03for the Dwarfen army
14:05I think
14:05oh he's got out
14:06yep that's good
14:08oh and the Arachnrock's
14:09going to rout
14:09let's hope so
14:11so he's just engaged there
14:12with the longbeards
14:15in Valor
14:15oh it's off
14:16the Thane
14:17yes
14:17oh yeah take that
14:21in the abdomen
14:22right I'm going to bring
14:23these guys back actually
14:24because I think I sorely
14:25need them
14:25how are we doing
14:26I sent my
14:28my
14:29Iron Drakes over here
14:30to start cleaning up
14:31these Orc archers
14:32that have been peppering me
14:33for ages
14:33as you can see
14:34the fire of the Iron Drakes
14:35like really low range
14:36like they're not very
14:37they can't fire very far
14:38but the damage they're
14:39dealing over time
14:40is absolutely huge
14:41like they're really
14:42really effective
14:43in that kind of situation
14:44and of course
14:45their armour makes them
14:45actually quite good
14:47in melee right
14:48like they're a small unit
14:49so they're not going
14:49to last too long
14:50but they can certainly
14:51defend themselves
14:51until support arrives
14:53to relieve them
14:54so if they are engaged
14:55do they drop their
14:57their cannons
14:57is that right
14:58with the Iron Drakes
14:59no they'll be hitting
14:59people around the face
15:00with their cannons
15:01with them
15:01wow
15:01they get a cannon
15:03in the face
15:03as it were
15:04no one wants a cannon
15:05in the face
15:06yes
15:07and the hat man bicker
15:09maybe work for that
15:11well yeah
15:12it looks like
15:13you took quite a lot
15:13of damage there
15:14I was panicking a bit
15:15actually
15:15I think you only have
15:17one unit of quarrelers
15:18in your thane
15:18that are vaguely unscathed
15:20the thane's unscathed
15:22that's some pretty good work
15:23how many blows
15:24he's at 1860 hit points
15:26still
15:27like wow
15:28what a hero
15:29and he looks well
15:30happy about it as well
15:31yeah he does
15:32whereas Thorgrim
15:33just about
15:34he's got 159
15:36hit points there
15:36he's a bit the worst
15:37for wear
15:37yeah a little
15:38I think he'll be
15:40yes
15:40but beard is still intact
15:42and the book
15:43is still full of grudges
15:45I think he's written
15:46off a grudge
