SEGA Europe and Creative Assembly have officially announced the Omens of Destruction DLC for Total War: Warhammer 3. Launching on December 12, this content marks the inclusion of the 100th Legendary Lord in the series while introducing new heroes, units, and campaign mechanics for Khorne, Ogre Kingdoms, and Orcs & Goblins. Here’s a closer look at what fans can expect.

Skulltaker, Khorne’s Ultimate Duelist

Skulltaker, Khorne’s immortal champion, leads the Blood God’s forces with his relentless pursuit of worthy skulls. His Cloak of Skulls mechanic rewards players with new abilities and traits as he defeats enemy lords.

On the battlefield, Skulltaker is a one-man wrecking crew. Armed with a two-handed Slayer Sword, he excels at taking down enemy leaders and slicing through ranks of troops. New units like the Bloodspeaker, Wrathmongers, and Khorngors bolster his daemonic ranks, adding even more carnage to Khorne’s legions.

Gorbad Ironclaw, The Orcs’ Strategic Warboss

Gorbad Ironclaw is a cunning and brutal Warboss who embodies the Orcs’ love of “propa invasions.” His Da’ Plan campaign feature allows for unique strategies, granting bonuses that make his Waaagh! unstoppable.

In battle, Gorbad charges into enemy lines atop his Warboar, Gnarla, and inspires his troops with the Da Great Leader ability, boosting melee stats. Players can recruit units like the Savage Orc Great Shaman, Mangler Squigs, and Colossal Squigs to dominate the battlefield.

Golgfag’s anti-infantry prowess is unmatched, shredding enemy ranks with brutal attacks. His diverse brigade includes Yhetees, Pigback Riders, and Bragg the Gutsman, making the Ogre Kingdoms a force to be reckoned with.
