The apocalypse is coming…

Get ready for Doomsday with The Prophet & The Warlock for Total War: WARHAMMER II!

Check out the Steam Page here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/965220/

The Skink Prophet Tehenhauin commands the Cult of Sotek with an insatiable appetite for sacrifice. Drenching the temple-city altars in Skaven blood after each battle, he performs arcane rites in his quest to awaken the great serpent-god Sotek from his slumber and elevate the Lizardmen to their rightful glory.

Meanwhile, the Warlock-Engineer Ikit Claw toils in Clan Skryre’s Forbidden Workshop, crafting ever-crueler constructs for use in battle. His magnum opus: the Doomsphere, a Warpstone bomb so destructive it can wipe entire cities off the map.

A warhammer 40k total war would be very difficult to implement, though I have written out in detail how one could work

Doesn't have to be.

Just take dawn of war approach to the world map then use a few company of heroes mechanics for the battles,

like reserve units, strategic locations. And just have the army on the world map appear as reserves through the battle.

It could work, but it would be a big game to work on for sure.

Here is what I posted in the TW discord regarding it. The campaign map would be the easiest thing to develop. As for battles:
"Oh the way for it to work is staged planetary invasions. Not staged as in scripted, I mean staged as in planetary invasion would require stages of battles, from securing touchdown and then breaking a key section of the front and then doing several other themes (evasion, ambush, siege, etc). Basically it translates to an expanded city siege mechanic in a standard title, where every turn you can have a battle to take a different part of the city in a different way, until eventually you fight for the city center. The surrender mechanic would also have to make a comeback to avoid unnecessary turns when the outcome is obvious, and armies would be more like a pool of recruited units to choose from (sorta like veterans in shogun 2's avatar conquest, except these can be perminently killed off) and you can choose 20-40 units (cap depends on fps drops) for the specific engagement to signify this is a major battle occuring on a front, so the rest of the army is represented as being needed elsewhere. The AI can also counterattack to push the stages back and eventually cause a full scale retreat from the planet, with their own specific themes to accomplish this. A planetary invasion will also fail if your army reserves perish, so a long struggle against the AI will eventually spell defeat for whoever receives the most losses and has the least units in their garrison/army"

For this You deserve a preeorder....

...done

[AVGAMER]

Your a rather sad, laughable figure geister please move along we already have enough jesters around here

[THEDOSSBOSS]

Well, this seems like the kind of thing I'd write to makena sarcastic thread

[Kaaz]

ok ill humor you, how does the addition of a minor LL, in a minor faction ruin the entire lore of the universe. bearing in mind the universe was entirely obliterated shortly after this game is set by GW themselves to pave the way for age of sigmar.

"CA RUINS THE LORE OF THE WORLD"

lore dictates that the world no longer exists

Ok then

[Kaaz]

so no answer then, just more rants
