I love how they added that in. "I LEAD, FROM REAR!" Cuts to Tretch slinking back, glancing over his shoulder to make sure no villainous rivals are gonna shank him in the process.
This was a thing tho. Both in lore and in the tabletop: One of the perks of rank in skaven society was to stay as far away from danger as possible. Leading from the front was seen as unconventional and the province of particullary bloodthirsty warlords , such as Queek.
@@miguellemir242 Of course! Every smart Skaven knows that only the stupid no-fur leaders would run into battle, only to get shot in the head and die. Brave-mighty Skaven leaders watch the battle from a safe vantage point. Surrounded by their most loyal-trusted bodyguards. Stupid no-fur things and stupid-foolish Skaven lead from front that is. But no one tell Queek that. This one likes his beautiful head too much.
I like how Alarielle's new intro is the first time we've ever seen a lord/hero from TWWIII smile in a non-agressive/smirking/mocking way. It's really a new thing.
Im really glad hey decided to update Allariele's intro. It was legitemately one of the most awkward lord select screens in the game. Allariele the Radiant, Everqueen of Ulthuan randomly decides to perform some kung fu moves in an open field while yelling with her mouth closed.
I always liked to imagine that a camera crew showes up at Alarielle's garden one day while she was loitering around, and said to do something really cool while we film you. And they only had the budget for one take so they went with the first thing she did.
@@Indolthir Good news! That clip shall be forever immortalized in the video I did for High Elf lords. Which I recorded and released before this update. #selfpromotion :)
Settra got served justice in his intro, but Tretch is just too funny when he cowardly enters the door, screams like he was the one, who did all that and then immediately returns to lead from the rear
Settra: Army inspection Tretch: "I DID THIS! IT WAS ME! KILL ALL THINGS!" *Slowly slinks back to the shadows* "Yes-yes. Do Tretch's bidding.. Give him all glory-praise for victory!"
While every other Skaven in this game tries their best to be distinct and go against the grain...Tretch Craventail just doubles down and shows EVERYONE exactly what a Skaven ass Skaven looks like.
@@donkarnage6986 Literally haven't seen any other comments like this since this is my first time seeing these new lord select screens. Maybe it would just occur to you that people can have a similar way of thinking?
Alarielle's is such an improvement from the "look up, yell, cast a random spell, leap back" intro she's had since two. It actually fits her character now and is completely distinct from anyone else's. Like, she even smiles! In a Warhammer game! And not after visiting horrible violence on someone else!
I think Alarielle, Tretch and Settra's might be my top 3 from this. Alarielle is just having a literal walk in a park, but it's so distinct and in character for her. And yeah, I love the new facial animations. Her smile is so well done.
Aranessa looking down on me (ty) Hellebron looking even more badass with the shrine and Har Ganeth banner Tretch absolutely fun seeing him being him Lokhir no longer had his tentacles attached to his body SETTRA SHALL RULE THE WORLD 🎺🎺🎺!!! Alarielle finally had calmed down Khalida looks like those villains for the next the mummy movie Imrik even more punchable than ever
Lmao 'Imrik even more punchable than ever' Rarely have I heard such a truer statement online. When I recorded these, it was actually my first time seeing them, and pretty much the second I finished watching them all I knew I had to makenthe video ASAP
Yeah which is weird as he does have access to Crypt Ghouls. But maybe in future and at least you can get them with alliance to the Manchild Von Carstein.
The elves ate so good here. All of them say so much about their characters with no words necessary. Tretch with that verminous valor on full display, too. But Alarielle. Oh Alarielle, she needed it more than anyone else. So happy for her.
Fun fact: Lokhir Fellheart’s intro animation was actually for the Red Duke who had it since early WH2 or even since WH1, so CA technically had everything done for the Red Duke to become a full fledged LL(other than items and quest battles but yeah)
That's a neat bit of trivia. It's honestly astounded me how CA hasn't done anything with the Red Duke. I mean, the guy pretty much has his own model, his own faction, and unique skills (I think?) Just strap a free-LC tag to him, make up a couple of unique mechanics and BOOM! Content.
@@vicsvinny8123 he has a few skills yes, and his El Syf ability(which is actually good) was intended to be a "weapon" ability. If they finally do release him as a playable LL they should give him dual weapons because he had a mace and sword in the lore(i think)
I love when previews have troops marching in the background. Really helps emphasize that the given character leads a faction, and the power that entails.
I know right? I love those little added details for some of the lords. Or for someone like Settra who is parading down a line of his men, only to arrive at the main army all gathered in the central square, with the horn announcing the Kings arrival.

@@Nightmare_52 Alarielle is like the Civ Gandhi of Total War: Warhammer. Supposedly about peace and prosperity between nations, but is so inclined to declare war and nuke you at a moments notice.
No new animation for my man Khatep. I really wish they had him performing a ritual surrounded by liche priests or something. Not just making a little dust devil in a room alone.
@@vicsvinny8123 Yeah, Queek and Skrolk as well don't have anything new, same for Franz and like, everything in the Vampire Counts, Beastmen too. At least Taurox has a cool lord select screen.
It's really cool how for many, they're keeping the original feel of it, whilst adding new additions. Some more than others granted, but I think so many are huge improvements, and really well done overall.
Ikr? There are some really talented and passionate people at CA with this. I'd like to think that the people who did these intros, were also involved in some capacity with the people who made the DLC trailers
Yes, I've actually already made a video for the High Elves lord selects with the new intros, if you don't mind me plugging another video. I really like these 'remasters' they're doing with the LL's. They're all really well done imo
I don't know what it is, but I love hearing and seeing stuff like that. Rome 2 had animations where a nearby unit not engaged in combat would randomly have men raise their shields and bash on it with their weapon. It really added to the overall atmosphere of the battle. The Dark Elves also kind of do this too, but not to the same extent as the Romans.
@@vicsvinny8123 yeah I remember that too, the Spartans did that a lot in Rome 2 and I think I remember the Romans in Attila with tower shields slamming them down 🤔 or that's my imagination 😂. Would love to see it in Warhammer though
@@chronicpain24_7 I'd love to see special animations of the entire unit doing coordinated actions to inspire the men currently fighting. Like slamming their shields onto the ground, bashing it with something like war drums. Or simply more battle chants. Because stuff like this is always so cool to see
You're telling me there isn't a big lush jungle in the Southern Chaos Wastes?? In all seriousness, I expect Oxylotl to get his remaster along with the Beastmen (whenever that happens)
@@vicsvinny8123 That makes some sense, didn't know how they're deciding the order to redo these. I thought they were just knocking out the remaining ones for these respective factions, but your theory makes a lot more sense, I love the lizards so I do hope they reach him. Thx again for the video!
Wow these are really nice. Nice to see them taking the time time to add little details that though minor help with the immersiveness of the overall experience.
Seeing the track record so far, I'd say that's very likely. At least the lords from the previous games. I doubt Miao Ying and Ku'gath are gonna get remastered intros anytime soon.
Since I really like Tomb Kings, seeing the improved animations was a big win for me with this update, BUT the change that I was most happy with wasn't even about the animation. Someone finally gave Lokhir Fellheart a proper metal mask and took off whatever rubber mask that was he had on before. Finally, he actually looks as cool as he should...
I've noticed A LOT of people agree with you on Lokhir's mask, which I find both sort of funny and really interesting, as it is (arguably) a really small detail that can be easily overlooked, but everyone seems to not only have noticed, but cared to see it change for the better. As someone who does actually look for the 'little details' in this game so I can show it off to the internet, I also agree that the new mask is kewl.
That would be really cool but I wouldn't hold my breath. It'd be kind of a big undertaking, seeing as how many different lords and factions there are. I'd definitely see some talented and dedicated modders taking a crack at it however.
God Alarielle really needed to be redone, I’m glad they finally did it. Now when are the gonna do the DLC factions for Warhammer 1, still waiting on Beastmen and Bretonnia and the rest of the Wood Elves
@@EmperorNiko At first it seemed to me that they were holding 2 swords in one hand, but I looked closely for a long time - it’s just a bad angle, but still they are holding 1 sword incorrectly
Ive noticed they removed a ton of random screaming, particularly Aranessa and Allariele, both of them would kinda do a spin, Aanessa does a weird kick, and both just kinda yell at the camera afterwards lmao Tretch Craventail easily wins Most Accurate Depiction of a Legendary Lord in an Intro and i fucking love it
Does anyone play with an ultrawide monitor? While the game is compatible these intro videos are a bit off-center, as in one side of the video is being hidden by the UI. A minor thing but was wondering if anyone has a fix.
Major upgrades: -Aranessa: that forward flip is extremely fast past while being easy to follow. -Imrik: while no changes to the scene, the change in lighting is a vast improvement. -Tehenhauin: adding the pile of skaven corpses is a big improvement -Tretch: what can I say, just watch it. -Khalida: I like the full shot of the Court of Lybaras a lot versus the old Downgrades: -Alarielle: Sorry, I'm going to miss that mad but perfectly in tune scream. -Cylostra: Idk it just seems too busy compared to the old one. -Settra: Just an idle roll forward, not tearing ass out of Khemri. Boo. Settra should be demonstrating from his intro that he does not swerve.
It'd be cool if she had a unique mercenary mechanic where she can recruit most faction's low-mid tier units with the right conditions. Making a super diverse roster
I don't get it, I started playing Warhammer 3 only recently, did they remaster the intros? I did notice that some intros looked like straight from Warhammer 2, so did they remade them in WH3 engine?
@@ygorschuma3059 Not every intro received an entirely new scene like with Karl Franz, Tretch or Alarielle, but CA has been going around and remastering these clips. Some are simple facelifts, whilst others are entirely new.
@@roland228 Imagine trying to cast a fireball spell, only for your sorcerer to just instantly die by blowing up in the middle of your army. That'd both be infuriating, and hilarious at the same time for me.
@@vicsvinny8123 To be honest, the way Miscasts currently work is that a tiny but concentrated explosion strikes your wizard. The explosion is so small that it will barely affect a unit with a middling number of entities but deals enough damage to take a bit off a wizard's health. It's not that much but enough to worry the controlling player and possibly put the Wizard over the line between living/dead or holding/shattered. A wizard who finds their spell backfiring and going off on their position is unlikely to be damaged much by it. Their allies around them who individually have a far smaller health pool (infantry and cavalry units who have a per entity health in two or three digits compared to the four of even the weakest wizards) would likely end up dead from a spell explosion going off on the wizards position while the wizard themself just gets tickled.
@@roland228 There's a lightweight mod 'Miscast mod' which pretty much makes miscasts actual dangers. I.E: Your spellcaster blowing up and taking 1/4 of whoever is around with them. It's a staple of my mod list. Never not funny when your battlemage who's on the frontlines becomes a miniature nuke in the midst of battle, wiping out both your men, and the enemy in the immediate radius within seconds. Somehow casting a healing spell results in explosion?
Settra has to be pretty mad Khalida has a more "I rule everything" intro than him. And frankly a more badass one. (Though in his defense, his own intro is noticeably more martial)
Was hoping they'd have fixed Markus Wulfhart putting the bowstring straight through his arm by now, but I guess you miss these things when you don't care.
Love watching Tretch going to take the Skaven position of leadership in the rear

@@vicsvinny8123 yeah I remember that too, the Spartans did that a lot in Rome 2 and I think I remember the Romans in Attila with tower shields slamming them down 🤔 or that's my imagination 😂. Would love to see it in Warhammer though
@@chronicpain24_7 I'd love to see special animations of the entire unit doing coordinated actions to inspire the men currently fighting. Like slamming their shields onto the ground, bashing it with something like war drums. Or simply more battle chants.
Because stuff like this is always so cool to see
Alarielle being cute as fuck is an actually good upgrade to the previous one
I wish they redid oxytal's intro to make it take place in the chaos wastes :(
You're telling me there isn't a big lush jungle in the Southern Chaos Wastes??
In all seriousness, I expect Oxylotl to get his remaster along with the Beastmen (whenever that happens)
@@vicsvinny8123 That makes some sense, didn't know how they're deciding the order to redo these. I thought they were just knocking out the remaining ones for these respective factions, but your theory makes a lot more sense, I love the lizards so I do hope they reach him. Thx again for the video!
Wow these are really nice. Nice to see them taking the time time to add little details that though minor help with the immersiveness of the overall experience.
Khalida looks so badass in this wth
Tehenhuain: Bring more rats for Sotek! MORE RATS!
Nakai: CATHAYAN NOM NOM! DRAGON HURT NAKAI FRIEND! NAKAI NOM DRAGONS!
Looks good, hope they do the same for the remaining lords
Seeing the track record so far, I'd say that's very likely. At least the lords from the previous games. I doubt Miao Ying and Ku'gath are gonna get remastered intros anytime soon.
Since I really like Tomb Kings, seeing the improved animations was a big win for me with this update, BUT the change that I was most happy with wasn't even about the animation. Someone finally gave Lokhir Fellheart a proper metal mask and took off whatever rubber mask that was he had on before. Finally, he actually looks as cool as he should...
I've noticed A LOT of people agree with you on Lokhir's mask, which I find both sort of funny and really interesting, as it is (arguably) a really small detail that can be easily overlooked, but everyone seems to not only have noticed, but cared to see it change for the better.
As someone who does actually look for the 'little details' in this game so I can show it off to the internet, I also agree that the new mask is kewl.
I really hope that they even make intro movies for all the factions. Like they've done for the most recent DLC factions.
That would be really cool but I wouldn't hold my breath. It'd be kind of a big undertaking, seeing as how many different lords and factions there are.
I'd definitely see some talented and dedicated modders taking a crack at it however.
Dam bro. Finaly got some of the attention you deserve.
Aranessa looking like a badass. Now they just need to give her some buffs. Please CA.
Everybody looks good. 👏👏👏👏👏
God Alarielle really needed to be redone, I’m glad they finally did it. Now when are the gonna do the DLC factions for Warhammer 1, still waiting on Beastmen and Bretonnia and the rest of the Wood Elves
I see Lokhir still stabs his own foot
His *"RRRAAAAGGGGHHHHG"*
Is the crippling regret he has for doing that to look cool.
wow, a needed and important change right there
Indeed, i despised these old, ugly intros.
4:09 Do the Tomb Guards have 2 swords in their hand?
I think so
ROR version has dual swords
@@EmperorNiko At first it seemed to me that they were holding 2 swords in one hand, but I looked closely for a long time - it’s just a bad angle, but still they are holding 1 sword incorrectly
Ive noticed they removed a ton of random screaming, particularly Aranessa and Allariele, both of them would kinda do a spin, Aanessa does a weird kick, and both just kinda yell at the camera afterwards lmao
Tretch Craventail easily wins Most Accurate Depiction of a Legendary Lord in an Intro and i fucking love it
I do like how people aren't just yelling unncessarily, and showing off themselves through actions and atmosphere.
Does anyone play with an ultrawide monitor? While the game is compatible these intro videos are a bit off-center, as in one side of the video is being hidden by the UI. A minor thing but was wondering if anyone has a fix.
Очень классно, что Халида теперь показывает истинную атмосферу мрачной египетской тематики.
Luthor killed the cameraman 😨
Didn't approve of that close-up
Dude Imrik looks baddass
Tretch Craventail got the best one
Luthor is the best as always. :3
Major upgrades:
-Aranessa: that forward flip is extremely fast past while being easy to follow.
-Imrik: while no changes to the scene, the change in lighting is a vast improvement.
-Tehenhauin: adding the pile of skaven corpses is a big improvement
-Tretch: what can I say, just watch it.
-Khalida: I like the full shot of the Court of Lybaras a lot versus the old
Downgrades:
-Alarielle: Sorry, I'm going to miss that mad but perfectly in tune scream.
-Cylostra: Idk it just seems too busy compared to the old one.
-Settra: Just an idle roll forward, not tearing ass out of Khemri. Boo. Settra should be demonstrating from his intro that he does not swerve.
Settra went hard
Settra, Khalida, Arkahn and Naestra and Arahan take the cake
They took the iconic scream from Alarielle? How could they...
Alarielle walks through her garden half the size of Washington state
*Stubs toe*
"WWWAAAAAAHHHHHH"
Alith Anar looks great but his arm flick when he disappears is so awkward. It needs to be way snappier.
His arms are just really sore from killing all those Druchii off screen.
1:58 My lord, there's a fair elven lady outside. And she's barefoot!
"This is a no shoes, no service Empire! Get 'er outta here!"
Cool ! I realized I'm super bad with the TK and VCoast lords, don't play them much if at all ...
Seems like someone forgot to finish Arkhan's video. Ryll what is that black pulsing thing?
Khatep didn't update the intro splash page
I genuinely thought it was updated :/
Ah well, I can't leave poor Khatep out when the rest of the Tomb Kings are up there.
oh aranessa
Its awesome!
It looks like a Mortal Kombat roster.
they didnt forgot aranessa. please give her the rework she needs
It'd be cool if she had a unique mercenary mechanic where she can recruit most faction's low-mid tier units with the right conditions. Making a super diverse roster
The fact that I see Aranessa surrounded by living pirates makes me hopeful for a rework on her being more Pirate and less Vampire Pirate faction
Wow nice work CA
Does anyone else hear the warcraft 3 boat sound with count noctilus or is it just me?
I don't get it, I started playing Warhammer 3 only recently, did they remaster the intros? I did notice that some intros looked like straight from Warhammer 2, so did they remade them in WH3 engine?
@@ygorschuma3059 Not every intro received an entirely new scene like with Karl Franz, Tretch or Alarielle, but CA has been going around and remastering these clips.
Some are simple facelifts, whilst others are entirely new.
4:53 Looks like Arkhan botched his spell.
MISCAST!
- *Summons a black hole directly above your head*
@@vicsvinny8123 Explosion and vortex spell miscasts really should work that way, producing the explosion or vortex directly on top of the caster.
@@roland228 Imagine trying to cast a fireball spell, only for your sorcerer to just instantly die by blowing up in the middle of your army. That'd both be infuriating, and hilarious at the same time for me.
@@vicsvinny8123 To be honest, the way Miscasts currently work is that a tiny but concentrated explosion strikes your wizard. The explosion is so small that it will barely affect a unit with a middling number of entities but deals enough damage to take a bit off a wizard's health. It's not that much but enough to worry the controlling player and possibly put the Wizard over the line between living/dead or holding/shattered. A wizard who finds their spell backfiring and going off on their position is unlikely to be damaged much by it. Their allies around them who individually have a far smaller health pool (infantry and cavalry units who have a per entity health in two or three digits compared to the four of even the weakest wizards) would likely end up dead from a spell explosion going off on the wizards position while the wizard themself just gets tickled.
@@roland228 There's a lightweight mod 'Miscast mod' which pretty much makes miscasts actual dangers.
I.E: Your spellcaster blowing up and taking 1/4 of whoever is around with them.
It's a staple of my mod list.
Never not funny when your battlemage who's on the frontlines becomes a miniature nuke in the midst of battle, wiping out both your men, and the enemy in the immediate radius within seconds.
Somehow casting a healing spell results in explosion?
why doesn't Arkhan's eyes light up in the intro :o
I dunno, but he definetly looks more menacing without them.
He is so dead inside that even undeath doesn't do anything to give light to his soul.
Did they actually give Alith Anar a normal size head??
Yep, that's all good stuff😊
Arkhan's intro is a bit... basic, I guess? Also, why is he casting the Purple Sun on HIMSELF?!😂
Alith Anar master Shadow
4:54 Arkhan my dude, I don't think you should be casting the purple sun that close to yourself
Alll the tomb king LL's got new intros, except for Khatep :(.
TOMB KINGS GOT ATTENTION THE DREAM ISN’T DEAD
NEHEKHARA RISES FROM OBSCURITY!
1 I love how Luther blasts the camera man
2 what name of the thing on count noctolous chin
Damn… They forgot about Orion and Durthu the Gigachad tree😔
Durthu the Gigabranch
Soon my friend.. their time will come.
Settra has to be pretty mad Khalida has a more "I rule everything" intro than him. And frankly a more badass one.
(Though in his defense, his own intro is noticeably more martial)
Did Arkhan dirty. His intro looked a lot better before.
Was hoping they'd have fixed Markus Wulfhart putting the bowstring straight through his arm by now, but I guess you miss these things when you don't care.
Why Arkhan just sun of zherus hymself? wtF?
I love alarielle so so much
