>One completely new feature for Total war is how Skaven settle. Their settlements are beneath the ground and allow them to develop huge cities away from the view of any opposition. Known as the Under-Empire, it allows for a huge element of surprise as all Skaven settlements are seen as ruins until an enemy attempts to settle or explore the area.
>This stealth development also means that the Skaven can build up huge armies in secret. These armies, being hidden from view, can be used to surprise and overwhelm enemies quickly. Skaven tactics at their finest.

Reminder to also watch the Ritual Video, it's full of like, actual dialogue and shit
Aiden Carter
This isn't a racefanboy thing. It had no interesting filmography going on. Bretonnia, DElf, VC, even Greenskins had interesting cuts, dialogue, tension, etc.
Jordan Anderson
WHAT DO THE MAN THINGS AT CA MEAN BY THIS THIS NEW STUFF STUFF ?
Fuck off, we saw so many dope units and it sounds like they got the voice actor from Vermintide (thank fuck)
James Rodriguez

SNEAK-SNEAK, THEN KILL-KILL THE MAN-THINGS

>le two armies randomly clashing makes for a good trailer mcneck urself underage--you get to see full unit rosters in a few days with in-game gameplay by Darren anyways
Liam Powell

James Cook
AND THESE FAGS THOUGHT WE WOULD NEVER DO AN UNDER-EMPIRE MECHANIC
Matthew Jenkins
>no Jezzails
Blake Hughes
>Every 45 seconds you can throw out both of these for free
This is amazing.
Luis Foster
Amazing.
Ayden Morales
>my everything hurts >the wheel is too heavy >I wish I was at home bullying slaves
Ethan Martinez
Shit tier mechanic
Dylan Rogers
>The text adventure with the Dark Elf/High Elf scout exploring a Lizardman ruin and discovering a skaven lair was actually foreshadowing the Skaven settling mechanic.
That's pretty clever actually.
Hunter Bell
It's a pretty half-assed one though, it's not the entire map
Christian Lee
t-theyll be confirmed friday, right?
they wont be D-DLC, r-right?
Samuel Evans
not gonna lie thats not how I thought they'd go with the Skaven trailer but it's my favorite trailer by far now.
Comet confirmed >It heralds the great maw and the ogre kingdoms
Daniel Jenkins
It was kinda neat, I was hoping for empire and voiceovers though, would have been more fun.
Aaron Barnes
>shit-tier >literally everyone has been begging for CA to do it
Gavin White
That's OUR BOY, the twin-tailed comet of SOTEK/SIGMAR
Nathaniel Robinson
is it real
Carter Nelson
So Skaven are broken?
How are you supposed to defend if you cannot see their armies?
Joseph Cruz
nobody was asking for hidden settles, we were asking for a fucking second map
Ryan Rodriguez
>implying :^)
High Definition Apollo 17 minuter ago "This is a public service announcement: due to technical difficulty, a video that would cause civil unrest to the empire have been uploaded to the total war youtube channel, please do not view this video, and if you know any friend or relative who have viewed the video, please report to your nearest witch hunter immediately, long live the emperor! "
Austin Hill
Sounds OP as all hell and makes it somewhat impossible to deal with them as a player, wonder how that is really going to be implemented.
Joseph Wright
...
Hunter Torres
...
Kevin Jackson
fucking YES. it will be scary as fuck settling ruins now
Chase Powell
No faction is ever going to get a separate map to play on. That the under-empire is represented at all is a major plus.
Bentley Davis
>waifufag puts an elf image over skaven pathetic
John King
>What makes the Skaven interesting is that they are a true horde army
Josiah Fisher
What are "both of these"
Jaxson Sullivan
Build walls and clear out any ruins on your border
Oliver Morgan
You can see their armies, you just won't know whether a ruin in the fog of war is an actual ruin or a redditrat settlement.
Austin Ward
>faction That's why Dwarves and Orcs would be able to do it too, dummy.
Jackson Myers
>Skaven Campaign Intro Movie >Queek sounds Jamaican
Cooper Walker
>Following the trend of stealth tactics and use of the underground is an in-battle ability called The Menace Below. This ability summons a unit of Clanrats anywhere on the battlefield, allowing you to raise them behind enemy lines
I think summoning units out of thin air is the theme of WH2
Elijah Stewart
>look at the ground >see what looks like the black pyramid
hmm
Joseph Allen
Pretend they don't exist like the Empire does
Jose Wright

Brayden Rivera
Holy shit-shit.
Cameron Jenkins
You and fucking Arch Warhammer maybe.
Making a separate map just for the Skaven ranks up there with the stupidest ideas I've heard for this series

ye, im glad too CA will stop with this idiotic meme.
Christopher Allen
Why do CA hate the Empire and the High Elves?
Jack Sanders
On that ritual page.
Brody Davis
I think my game is broken, what is up with these odds.
Thomas Long
It still takes resources and time away from more important things, like the actual campaign map. Any separate map is only going to get left over work from the team after they are done with the main content which would make it half-assed. A mechanic like the one announced is a better use of their time and can be more properly fleshed out.
Eli Morales
>no unique vaporization death animations
Jaxon Martin
The Skaven rites summon unique hero-type units once completed. A summoned DOOOOM Engineer is effectively a suicide bomber, causing a devastating earthquake at a city. This heavily damages buildings and reduces the city’s settlement level. The Pestilent Scheme Priest spreads a plague in enemy territory. In the affected regions, the plague causes attrition and other negative effects but can be caught and spread by armies on the move.
Nicholas Walker
No you stupid piece of shit, he's talking about a real underground map like heroes 3 did 18 fucking years ago. All races should be able to enter, while only Skaven, Greenskins and Dwarfs avoid attrition. Replaces underway stance entirely. Karaks etc could have presence on both maps.
Jonathan Hernandez
Maybe not, considering that settlements razed by norsca, beastmen and warriors of chaos all have a different building on the map. Nobody that would leave generic ruins really does much razing other than savage orcs.
Logan Bennett
>Skaven are sneaky, yes-yes! Few things exemplify this more than their unique stance, Stalk. Stalk gives your rat-based armies a high chance to ambush enemies while moving towards them Beastmen clones
Wyatt Kelly
>important things >having an interesting campaign mechanic that stretches the world isn't important the FUCK
Logan Adams
>20 x war mammoth army about to be replaced by 20 x hell pit abomination army
feels good man
Owen Flores
The whole point of the empire is being the MUH BALLS OF STEEL AVERAGE JOE SURROUNDED ON ALL SIDES fighting against monsters of all kind, it's only fair that they act the part.
Jordan Reyes
>skaven corruption >no under empire map, just a summon units rats like the raptors Bravo CA atleast we got the hellpit
Nolan Scott
This is exactly why Grace is /ourgirl/. No one else would be able to cause this much salt.
Jordan Lee
>This heavily damages buildings and reduces the city’s settlement level.
Confirmed useless as absolute fuck.
Justin Perez
That was some intense cranking by gunner support in a trailer.
