NEVER LOSE a Battle! ULTIMATE Guide Total Warhammer 3 | EASY Battlefield Mastery | ONLY 8 Unit Types

There are so many video "guides" out there from huge channels that don't seem to actually explain anything. I learned far more here in this 30 min video than from everything else out there combined.

This could help a lot of players, especially who prefer a balanced army over stacks.

A good tip from Legend about why you should consider keeping a melee lord or hero on foot, is that due to the larger unit size on especially monster mounts, you are actually getting hit by 3 or 4x more enemies at once when you dive into melee. Ikit Claw on a doomwheel takes damage from a lot more individual entities and since you have reduced melee defense on the sides and rear, a lot more enemies are able to roll hits per second vs if he was on foot or on a smaller doomflayer.

I don't understand why you don't have more likes/views/subs ... absolutely high value content!

That pretty much covers everything, though I think there's still a few hybrid types that goes between offensive and defensive or even hybrid between unit types, such as Bleakswords or Empire Swordsmen for infantry, Grail Guardians as a hybrid of defensive infantry and shock cav, Lothern Sea Guards with shield as defensive infantry + archers, or Sky Junks as flying monster + artiliery. These units are like the jack-of-all-trades that can do many things but only to a 75% extent, sacrificing speciality for flexibility.

This is exactly the type of guide I appreciate. Logically listed, explained with bullet points, obvious when pointed out visually, covers the general gist of what/where/when. Its my first video I found on your channel. Subbed + liked.

Id say artillery has to be divided into two sub categories too, the anti-infantry (artillery with small damage with big area) and the anti-hero (Artillery with high damage low area.

My only regret is not having this video earlier when I was still a noob. Now I just watch to support

This is full of great advice. One type of video I'd like to see YouTubers tackle, though, is what I would consider the next step in learning how to win battles: army composition and engagement. The sample battle at the end of the video is an example of this, but it is only one example. I think many new players understand the matchups fairly well, but it's actual execution of orders, during battle, that trips them up. Army composition can be defined as static, "preparation strategy"--i.e., how the player intends to use the army, while engagement tactics can be defined by the player's actual selection, execution, and timing of unit engagements. I'd love to see, for example, a series of videos, by faction, that show how to engage armies of various compositions, using armies of various compositions. This would answer many questions for new players. How does an inferior, no AP army defend against a chaos army? How does a cavalry heavy army work against melee, artillery, ranged? How can vanguard units turn the tide of battle? How are fliers used to maximum potential? What are optional target priorities against this army, that army, etc. You could do an entire series, by faction, on how to engage each of a faction's nearest starting neighbors. What strategies work for this faction or that faction? How do you defend against a rush army? How do you execute an effective rush strategy? Testing various army compositions, and seeing the engagement strategy, would be invaluable for new players.

Great video, I've always struggled with the different unit types in warhammer and this is the best explanation yet....cheers!

What an insanely good breakdown. Nobody else explains it like this. Would love to see more of this

Curious, I've never seen Malay troops in the game

Thanks for the guide mate. Have played so many other TW games and never really struggled, decided to get into Warhammer and I have been getting absolutely rinsed. This guides a big help

Amazing guide dude, maybe the best one out there. Anyone who learns this can definitely win almost any fight, great job.

Newish warhammer fan here a big fan of the total war series in general (mostly been playing shogun 2 and three kingdoms) and I’ve been having trouble understanding each role of the units outside of what the game just slaps on as stats but seeing you cohesively explain each role and then demonstrate it in a more balanced army composition really helps!

This is the best battle guide by far, ty

I think the content of this video is brilliant - I've been playing TWWH 2/3 on and off for over a year now and I wish this video was available back then when I first started. My only criticism would be the style of having an audio description of what's being demonstrated on screen, with additional information flash up in different colours. I find this a bit of an overload and can't really take in what you're saying, and watch the video, and read the captions at the same time. I know I could pause and read what's flashed up, but I just don't want to have to do that every 30 seconds. This might just be a personal preference of mine which nobody else minds, but maybe try shorter videos but with the on screen info available for longer. Great work though none the less. Love your enthusiasm, keep it up!

Great video man, I’m new to war hammer and this is just what I needed

I’ve been playing this since WH1 and this is probably the best guide I’ve seen across all three games. Period. Appreciate it! You have examples for balanced faction like Empire and archer heavy factions like High and Wood Elves. Any examples for rush factions like Vampire Counts or cavalry faction like Bretonnia? What about pure gunpowder faction like Vampire Coast or Dwarves?

Exactly what I was looking for, really informative 👍
