Kislev, Khorne, Tzeentch, Cathay – they’ve all had their time in the pre-release spotlight in the long leadup to the Total War: Warhammer III release date. Lately, however, we’ve gotten our first peek at the strategy game’s tallest and hungriest faction, the Ogre Kingdoms. In a new video highlighting a selection of the Ogre Kingdoms’ unit roster, we get a look at how well-rounded these big meat-eating lads really are.
Zerkovich’s latest video shows off a partial selection of the Ogre Kingdoms army roster. It ranges from the diminutive Gnoblars at the small end up to the fearsome legendary lords Skrag the Slaughterer and Greasus Goldteeth at the other.
