Following on from the previous two Warhammer Total War titles comes the third installment; unlike many other developers who release half-developed content with more bugs than players, Creative Assembly have once again released another quality product and learned from the previous releases (including Three Kingdoms).

Currently I've completed the Prologue and played through both the Kislev and Ogre Kingdoms campaigns up until the third checkpoint. The game has ran well during my time in game, there may have been some frame losses, but, overall it wasn't noticeable and out of the 60 hours I've played so far the program has crashed twice whilst streaming at the same time (again a rarity for new games these days).

Although lacking the global domination map/game mode there's plenty of things to look at from the release including:

A new story to investigate along with the brilliant cinematics!
8 New factions - including the long awaited Ogre Kingdoms and Daemon hosts!
Up to 8 player campaigns (with either sequential turns or simultaneous)!
A Prologue campaign to teach you the basics (effectively a tutorial, also tells you the introduction to the story).
New maps and sieges, gone are the old village fights with no defences, welcome in the new Three Kingdoms type sieges (way more challenging and interesting fights compared to the old type).
Did I mention the Ogre Kingdoms? They're awesome!

Overall this is a must for any Warhammer fanatic and for those who enjoyed the previous two titles. personally I think this series has gone some way to making Games Workshop realize their mistake with killing off the Old world of Warhammer.
