- The armies of the Vampire Coast and the Empire face off in a massive ranged battle. (Because I didn't know how else to film these fights and make them look passable.)

New shitpost on TW:W2. I filmed and cut this around a year ago and it had been sitting on my hard-drive unfinished ever since, so I decided to get it out before the hard work would begin for SCP: Overlord.
Some notes, for those interested:
-I have massive issues w/ the total war camera and replay system. You can't adjust the focal length without locking the camera off, and any movement you use has no mouse smoothing unless you attach your camera to a unit (using the insert key). This makes it extremely difficult to get anything to appear cinematic in this game.
-There's no rewind button, so filming shit takes forever.
-I filmed this before I knew about reshade depth of field, and would have used it in a heartbeat if I'd known at the time.
-This was also filmed before I heard about some performance tweaks you can use to reduce the terrible animation degradation that plagues a few shots in this.
-This is a on a custom map I built for this video, and I'm not sure if I still have it.
-Sound on this took about 3 days, but I was also dealing with technical issues on my pc, so I wasn't working at full capacity.
-Sourcing SFX for this was difficult, as I needed to find new explosion sfx, and tons of things I wanted just didn't exist, like cannon balls impacting with groups, so I had to get clever and combine a lot of stuff.
Good God, this is amazing. Amazing work Evan!
Also a +1 to all of your criticisms and issues. The lack of a real replay system makes covering any non-live footage an absolute chore.
Ooooo weeee this looks and sounds amazing my dude! I’d even say you could give other TW:W2 cinematic creators a run for their money man
BE MY DAD
Yes, mind posting this in their forums so they can see it ?
I feel like this is smartass response, and I know you stated it was a year ago, but there is the better camera mod which fixes a lot of issues you laid out. I'd love to see another Warhammer short, perhaps with some voice acting. This felt a bit odd without shouted orders or battle cries. Still, really cool and glad you took the time to finish it.
1000 year old chaos knight, spent centuries in constant warfare, went through a dozen challenges and ordeals to get his armour and weapons. Marches for years south to finally destroy the empire of man.
Empire solider with 3 weeks basic training - haha rifle goes bang
I'm fairly convinced that GW forcibly retconned the setting because there was no way any future Chaos invasion would be remotely plausible to succeed. Once we get past the flintlock era, which is just starting in the Empire, and into percussion caps and cartridge rifles, then there's no way in Hell that Chaos--which has NEVER shown any affinity for the gun--would stand a chance.
Just imagine a regiment of Imperial Needle Gunners ripping three-rank fire off into a charging Chaos horde. They're all armed with melee weapons only, it'd be an absolute slaughter.
@@InchonDM chaos dwarfs would like to know your location
Choas fear no bullets made by the puny empire
@@InchonDM Depends on the time period of chaos... The warp is a dimention out of time, and some of our brothers are lost to it's grasp.... May the imperium of man survive such an abomination, but a divided humanity of the second millenia would not hold long.
@@InchonDM See, that is true, but also a Chaos Warrior can rip apart 20 men in minutes, deflect full caliber musket rounds and somewhat survive cannon shots, its why they still have pikes instead of moving into full line infantry, there is melee infantry that can make it through the scourge of gunfire and reach melee to decide the fight.
Thick, Grimy, and BLOODY, as it bloody should be.
Sigmar's praise be upon you!
Others might have made that a three dollar patreon rewarded.

@@turbowolf302 I did the same, works surprisingly well- "and a musket at your shoulder" came up as you see one of them pull the musket into his shoulder, right before they fire
It's impossible to not be impressed with Evan's work. Thank You for creating yet another cinematic masterpiece.
Evan inspired me to finally start a own editing channel, a critic opinion about my first video would really help me and I would appreciate it really
ElitePictures impressive
I've worked in AAA games marketing for decades - and that is maybe the single most impressive trailer I've ever seen that hasn't come from a huge agency. Absolutely jaw dropping editing, sound, cinematography - holy jesus mate that would get you a job in any game cinematics team you want.
Wow. As far as immersion goes, this is Astartes level dude. On top of that, you captured it all in a video game. The sound editing is just absolute fire. Holy shit.
This is some god-like cinematography, never thought something like this was possible. You've out done my expectations once again! :D
This feels as if this is like their version of the first world war
Thats how I felt. Like they were in no mans land making a run for the opposing trench.
More like Napoleonic War, American Civil War, Austro-Prussian or Franco-Prussian Wars.
Well, it's the warhammer universe. One way or another it's going to feel like WW1 stretched over the course of several hundred thousand millennia.
A never-ending rendition of the First World War is WH40k's schtick. WHF is more like a never-ending series of Battles of Pelennor Fields, but with muskets.
@@mikerodrigues9822 out of these 4 only 1 didn’t have any french soldiers participating
That's actually amazing. I was expecting some poor camera shots with bad music, but I stand corrected. It feels like an actual trailer made by devs. Great job !
I love the 'pwhoomp! *clink-clink-clink* chunk pwhoomp!' of the Helblaster. Oh and the video. That, too.
everyone gangsta till the Queen Bes rolls up
As Medieval 2: Total War's narrator monk would say "It explOODES!"
The empire's npc animations look very natural and fluid when close up. It almost looks like footage of real people!
Man this is the best TW cinematic sequence I ever saw.
Place....
À la poudre !
Empire of man: im going to upload this epic handgun and tank showcase

Yeah. Hahaha
Same.
@@TomorrowWeLive ok Mosley
0:38 How did the muskets sound like that? Did he edit that in? Is it a mod? In game they sound different with more ''pew pew'' sounding.
That was freaking epic; I loved the minimalistic nature of it....no dialogue or context, just desperation.
I was really hoping to see some sort og thunderous victory roar in the end, but I suppose the grim reality of a hideous death toll is all the more fitting in this setting.
Good job!
Evan, your films inspire me dude. Can’t wait for your next project!

The crime is your foul existence, the sentence is death!
The faded colours and the lack of music make this absolutely faaaaaantastic. Such a dark and grueling day in the Empire. You capture the tone so bloody well. I see a AAA movie with this scene in it.
Btw id love to see a D-Day cinematic in any game.
Weirdly that's sort of what one of Karl's special quest missions is in the game. Except instead of gunning down Americans on the beaches of Normandy, it's a ton of blood-thirsty Norscan marauders trying to pillage Nordland.
Me and the boys fighting for the last roll of toilet paper at Costco
Ahh quite the current and topical joke, friend. Impressively clever.
me and the bois right now, "hold the line bois!', "karens incoming!', "chin up johnny we need to defend this toilet paper at all cost!"
when Nurgle attacks, defend the toilet paper we must
Could u guys tell me what u think about my cinematic?
@@SpaceCinemaYT not bad
I come back to this Video every once in a while and i am still amazed that it looks and feels better than even many normal movies do :P Great work. !
This should have been the Empire trailer
For a moment, I though this was real. Your cinematography is impeccable, keep it up :D
1:54 we're haveing steamed crab tonight boys! (amazing work man)
Absolutely stunning shots especially given the limitations. Wish the game had this sort of atmosphere!
"HOLD THE LINE BROTHERS.
DO. NOT. FALTER.
FOR THE EMPEROR!
FOR SIGMAR!"
Man, this could be a trailer for a new DLC! Fantastic work, i cant describe how much i like this video!
I honestly thought it was lol
That... that was absolutely fantastic and surprisingly immersive, like damn dude great work!
I legit thought this was the next dlc trailer.
My little story for this~!
This was it. The last line of defense. The imperial armys of the empire were to busy dealing with other ongoing wars that the arrival of a pirate fleet of the coast of Norden traveling downwards to the only major river to Rikeland...the fires over the Marianburg villages helped further swell this Undead armada. It traveld to the heart of Rikeland raiding and looting whatever was around. Finally anchoring near the darkwood forest to make a treck to Altdorf with almost all soldiers on the other wars it seemed as though the famous city was doomed...luckily Wilhelm Stinzeburg and a local witch hunter manged to raise a personal force of men many if whom were washed up veterans of old conflicts the met the enemy deep in the accursed forest....the Undead pirates had made camp to raise more into their ranks and gather up all supplies for their plans to besiege Altdorf...the Wilhelms army managed to arrive as the pirates were just starting to depart. This was now or never the fate of one of the greatest cities of them empire...mabey even the empire itself deepens on victory here FOR SIGMAR!
This greedy atmosphere is so cool! I wanna see empire vs skaven now.
Same
or Skaven V Chaos Dwarfs
Gritty?
It would have been cool if the undead started rising again at the end. And then the captain looks like he despairs but then he looks up to the sky and there's a ray of sunlight beaming upon him, he knows its Sigmar and he charges into battle again then it cuts to black.
OMFG the audio and camera cut scene is perfect! No a word spoken added to the grimness of the war! BEST TW cutscene!
It’s like a movie instead of a game now
This is absolutely f***ing incredible! That was better than most trailers made by CA.. well done!
"didn't know how else to film these fights and make them look passable" bloody hell, mate, that was glorious. Sigmar be praised, the angles were amazing. Cheers!
This is like... pretty much the best battle scene I've ever seen in any movie or TV show or anything. I watched the Cannae one and that was epic, but the explosiveness of this one puts it over the top because the editing makes you feel all of it. Incredible work, Evan.
Got some Saving Privatr Ryan Omaha Beach landing vibes from this. Lighting, sound effects and camera work were fantastic
I thought this was a real cinematic for the game. Holy hell, man. This was great.
this actually looks like a movie
3:16 Witch hunter looking at all the corpses at the end:
"F*ck. Better get burning."
Everyone: Running to get into position

Best cinematic I've ever seen, cooler than the official trailer for Warden and the Paunch. By Sigmar I will NOT!
Based and sigmar pilled! I always run gun line only empire armies once I get the buildings to do so. 10/10
The sound design and cinematic shots in this is glorious, I worship it!
Holy shit i actually thought this was an official cinematic at first!!
Great work man
This reminds me of the cinematic made for Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising by some fan. It blew my mind many years ago as it was so much like this. I'll try to find it and post here.
The fact that this is like 90% gameplay is crazy just zoomed in... gotta love warhammer
Wow. Absolutely brilliant. Truly played out more like a movie than anything else.
Oh now that’s beautiful... now I wanna see you do one of these for the dwarves!!!!!!
If they're adding guns to this game, there's NO REASON we can't have Total War: Warhammer 40k. Come on Creative Assembly!
Unfortunately that's not really up to Creative Assembly, it's up to Games Workshop, and Games Workshop is well...
You say that but it would mean making very big changes to the way battles function, ways that could stray away from total war’s tried and true methods.
Consider why we haven’t seen a historical title more modern than empire.
Also if they couldn’t handle fleet battles for warhammer, what makes you think they could handle spacehulk battles for 40k?
@@firestorm1088 Looking for a new way to introduce people to their world/games?....
Problem is Total War was and is always about formations of units, I don't see how you could use flexible squads in a tactical environment, there be too much micro if there were some many small tactical units. Try the Men of War 2 40k mod and try to micro it proper, hard af
That would not work dude
My mouth was agape in awe for the whole 3 and a half minutes!
I can't even put in words how well made this is!
This is the most impressive Total War: Warhammer 2 Cinematic i've ever seen, can't imagine the time it took, very well done !
Jesus Christ. That was like watching a feature film battle sequence.
Are any graphics mods being used in this?
I used Dryrain's Empire Re-texture but most everything is still the same resolution for environments.
The fact you can't rewind your battles is absolute asinine, I would love to make cinematics like yours but the developers seem to be to busy making money to care about adding a simple rewind button, so ill just have to pass on this, Bravo on all your hard work man, very well done.
First time on the channel. Came here expecting a half assed capture montage. Got an absolutely epic edit. Thanks you for putting this together.
I have to say this was a treat to watch. The sort of fight scenes that remind me of band of brothers and that never fail to entertain.
That was seriously well done! Love the vibe and smoke effects as well
It was glorious and not having used music over it made it even better.
Fantastic work, showing an epic shoot out between the Empire and the Vampire Coast. The confusion, noise and explosions were all great. I honestly felt I was watching something from a war movie. Brilliant work!
For the first time it felt like this was not warhammer but Total war : Napolean or empire wars. Great animation. ❤
Man I’ve seen plenty of warhammer cinematics and short movies. But this takes the cake. This was fucking fantastic to watch! Thanks man
Amazing amazing work ! extra ordinary, with the little support/tools/resources you have !! nothing less than amazing.
I'm Absolutely blown away! This is by far the best filmed total war battle I have seen thus far. Amazing work my friend and please continue more work like this, just fantastic.
Jeez... everything you touch ends absolutly amazing and epic. I bet even Tetris would be a cinematic masterpiece.
This is absolutely incredible. Holy crap, thank you for taking the time to create this
This was awesome to watch - you did an amazing job! Huge kudos to you.
For some reason I found the bullet impact sounds to be immensely satisfying.
WOW ! The quality of this video is insane !! The grimdark ambiance, the slowmotion, ... I love it ! Well done mate, such a great work !
Your camera work and shot comp. are insane!!! 10/10 will watch obsessively.
I mean I cannot believe I am just discovering this video now. This is an absolute masterpiece well fucking done! It legit looks life a quasi CGI/animation film. BRAVO
This is some of your best work. Excited for more
This is impressive.
I've over 1500 hours into this game, and this is the first time I'm seeing a portrayal of what goes on in my head during campaign battles. Subscription earned.
My dude u have some if not THE absolute greatest action shots i have seen
the added sound effects added in post/ editing make this just soo much more intense! Great work dude
My respects to the quality and detail you dedicated to this entertainment piece. Excelent work, there is value added in your delivery.
There is something grand and elegant about black powder weapons firing in mass. Like lasgun fire volleys in 40k but more archaic and with heavy base to them. love seeing as the smoke clears there is nothing but carnage.
EPIC! No other words to describe this. Amazing job!!! Thanks for it!
First video I've seen. It will not be the last. Fantastic gripping feeling of grim, muck, blood, death the way battles in reality or fantasy truly are. Excellent work!
I don't play video games anymore and have only played the Warhammer MMORPG but damn son you got skills. This video alone makes me wanna jump back into Warhammer. Beautiful. Keep it up Evan, You got some skills.
The cinematography of this WORK OF ART was truly amazing my friend!
*This is so gritty, bloody, and satisfying! I love it!*
Wowww!!! Bravo. This really exemplifies why sound is so important. You nailed the visuals, but the sound is on an entire next level. Super inspiring :)
Wow.. that was great work, audio, angles, focus, that was really inspired work. You manage to edit gameplay footage in such a way that it feels like watching a well done and intense high budget and expertly directed movie, bravo, hands down excellent work!
I've seen a bit of these cinematic battles and that was probably the most well done one. Bravo mate
Dark and grimy as Warhammer should be. Excellent cinematography and amazing sound design. Well done, sir.
That was bloody awesome! Good work and thank you for making this.
I'll put it like this: if this was a trailer for a movie coming out I would definitely be going to see it. To me the quality of this work is amazing and this video was very suspenseful.
Huge of fan of the Total War Series and TW Warhammer 2, love the dark and gritty work man. Keep it up.
really good sound animations! Feel like both the sound and brightness made the mood perfect
