Total War: Warhammer 3 – Immortal Empires’ Dedicated Factions
Immortal Empires brings big changes to Total War: Warhammer 3, including several new dedicated factions for your favorite Legendary Lords.
Let’s chew through more of that Immortal Empires deliciousness today, with a bite of new Dedicated Factions. What are Dedicated Factions in Immortal Empires, you might be asking?
If you’re familiar with Mortal Empires, you know that some Legendary Lords have the same starting positions and factions as others. Until now.
Dedicated Factions in Immortal Empires
With Immortal Empires, Creative Assembly has created a number of new Dedicated Factions. This means new goals, new opportunities, and new starting positions. Here’s a look at what Creative Assembly have unveiled so far.
Volkmar the Grim – The Cult of Sigmar:
Embarking on a pilgrimage of zealousness by abandoning the petty squabbles of the Elector Counts in favor of sealing away the abominable Books of Nagash, Volkmar now resides in the lower Southlands. Unlike the Tomb Kings and Mannfred Von Carstein, it’s not the books themselves that offer individual effects; rather, the act of sealing books away increases his Zeal, strengthening the boons and power granted to Volkmar.
Chase down those Books. Seal them away and gain power, all in Sigmar’s name!
Grombrindal – The Ancestral Throng:
Known for his hatred of the sadistic Dark Elves following Malekith’s instigation of the War of the Beards, Grombrindal moved to Naggaroth. There, he stages his armies to enact revenge upon the Witch King.
More dwarves means less elves. That’s just statistics. As a result, Grombrindal is one white dwarf who won’t abandon back issues.
Helman Ghorst – Caravan of Blue Roses:
Ever clinging to the hope of discovering necromancies that could bring his brothers back to life, Helman Ghorst has moved eastwards in order to be closer to the coveted Nagashizzar fortress.
Vlad and Isabella Von Carstein – Sylvania:
Unlike the other Legendary Lords, this power couple will be staying together in undead matrimony, but will be playable within the same campaign. If you choose Vlad as your Legendary Lord, Isabella will be automatically unlocked as a hero and vice versa.
This one is probably the best change. Love really can bloom on the battlefield. And with these two heroes/lords automatically starting together, you can crush your enemies with the power of matrimonial bliss.
Sigvald the Magnificent – The Decadent Host:
Armed with his disturbing yet angelic beauty, Prince Sigvald is now a force unto himself within the Warriors of Chaos. He reclines in pleasure in the Northwestern Chaos Wastes, and has been bestowed with some tantalizing new features such as the ability to Seduce units, use Seductive Influence, and has access to Slaanesh’s daemonic breed.
Sigvald carves out his own niche of the Warriors of Chaos. Now the beautiful warrior can seduce enemies like a proper Slaaneshite should.
Kholek Suneater – Heralds of the Tempest:
The ancient Dragon Ogre now resides north of the Mountains of Mourn, keen to seek out a monolithic settlement for his own dark designs.
