Total War: Warhammer 3 – Getting Started

Here’s our guide on getting started. It covers most of the basics you’ll need. It’s not everything, because that video would be hours long. But if you’re a total newbie, this will take you through the early game. Covering everything from navigating the map, to figuring out your economy and building and upgrading your structures.

All of which you’ll have to do to keep your armies recruited and upkept and maxed out so that you can send your forces out on campaign so you can start taking settlements for your own while dominating your enemies.

And once you do that, we’ll help you understand your heroes and what makes them epic. Which is a surprisingly big part of Total War: Warhammer 3, managing your Legendary Lords and Heroes makes a bold difference. The right ability at the right time can make all the difference in a pitched battle.

Or for those times when even your heroes are outmatched, we’ve got a handy combat tutorial to help you pick up the finer points of stabbing them with the pointy bit while you run.
