Total War: Warhammer

It is an age of endless conquest, thousands of warriors clash in titanic battles as entire races wage war on one another, each led by a formidable hero seeking dominion over the world.

All at your command.

Total War: Warhammer is an upcoming turn-based strategy real-time tactics video game in development by the Creative Assembly and published by Sega. The game features the gameplay of the Total War series with factions of Games Workshop's Warhammer series. It's the 10th title in the Total War series and will be the first title to be released in the Total War: Warhammer trilogy. The title is set to be released on 24 May 2016.

Tropes used in Total War: Warhammer include:

Clock Punk/Steampunk: The more advanced technological units that the Dwarves and Empire can deploy come across as this.
Fantasy Counterpart Culture: Quite a few, befitting both a Total War title and its Warhammer setting:
- The Empire is basically the Holy Roman Empire around the time of the Renaissance and suitably German.
- The Vampire Counts are an undead version of Uberwald.
- Bretonnia is a blend of High Middle Ages France and Arthurian myth.
- The forces of Chaos are generally based on Vikings and the Germanic barbarians of Late Antiquity.
Fantasy Gun Control: As with the source material, averted in the case of the Empire and Dwarven Kingdoms, which have much in the way of firearms and artillery. On the other hand, Bretonnia deliberately invokes this trope.
Genre Shift: Not only from the historical backdrops of previous Total War titles to the fantasy setting of Warhammer. But also in the inclusion of hero units, magic and aerial combat among others into gameplay.
Hero Unit: The "legendary lords" for each faction in particular even serve as leaders of their particular sub-faction, such as Karl Franz for the Empire.
Just Before the End: The game takes place in the period just before the "End Times" of the Warhammer universe.
