It’s time to brave the frigid winters of the Kingdom of Kislev in Total War: Warhammer III. The realm of the Ice Queen is the most northerly human civilization of the Old World, home to wolf-tough and self-reliant warriors in this powerful and war-driven nation.
Tzarina Katarin
Tzarina Katarin Bokha, the Ice Queen of Kislev, is one of the most powerful Ice Witches to have ever lived. Alongside her innate magical prowess, she relies upon proficient hand-to-hand combat skills that are elevated by her magical sword, Frostfang, which can fell even mighty beasts with a single blow.
“You feel her aura before you see her. You breathe clouds, there’s a stinging chill in the air, and then she arrives, compassionate… regal… beautiful…. deadly.” Boyar Drulz
Playstyle
The Kislevite army has evolved over centuries of brutal warfare and sacrifices into a versatile war machine. Excelling in drawing in enemy troops to make them lose cohesion and strength to crush them in one devastating clash, their hybrid missile infantry, cavalry along with use of deadly lores of magic will surely devastate any opposition.
The Lores of Ice & Tempest
These are the lores of magic wielded by the Ice Witches and Frost Maidens of Kislev. The first is the raw, murderous power of cold, harnessed as a weapon, from frozen ground that binds to the foe’s feet to lances of icy death. The second is power over weather, which has an emphasis on wintery effects such as the ability to conjure furious blizzards in battle.
The Kislev are the first Total War: Warhammer III race to be shown in detail, with information on their roster, legendary lords and showcase units available on social media channels as well as the website. Stay tuned for more on Khorne, Nurgle, Tzeentch, Slaanesh, Cathay, and some yet-to-be revealed races and secrets. Don’t forget to check out our preview here as well.
