Total War: WARHAMMER III - Yuan Bo – Shadows of Change

YUAN BO, THE JADE DRAGON

Those in other nations may deny it, but all mortals desire control. To be controlled, that is.
This pack introduces Yuan Bo, a new Legendary Lord for Grand Cathay, usable in both Realm of Chaos and Immortal Empires campaigns, as well as new units, characters, and regiments of renown.

• Establish and execute grand stratagems on a global scale as Yuan Bo of Grand Cathay.
• Defending Cathay is the Legendary Hero Saytang the Watcher, the great sentinel from the Mountains of Heaven.
​​• ​Expand your roster with 6 additional units, and enhance your troops with 3 new Regiments of Renown, including Onyx Crowmen, Celestial Lions, and the Great Moon Bird.

Ruling over the Central Provinces of Cathay, Yuan Bo, the Jade Dragon leads the Court of Celestial Sorcerers. A bureaucrat of the highest order on the surface, yes, but a talented spymaster at heart, the Jade Dragon runs the city of Wei-jin and, by extension, is an administrator for the Cathay empire. Liked by his siblings, the good of Grand Cathay is in capable hands.

Serving two roles between his human and dragon forms, the Jade Dragon can be a devastating single target destroyer, and a potent spellcaster with the Light, Yin, and Heaven lores of magic. Soar above the battlefield as a dragon, burning down even the strongest of enemy units, or take the fight on the ground with game-changing spells at your side.

Cathay stands, all the same.

CONTROL THE STATE

Engage in a chess match unlike any other with the Matters of State. As a master statesman, a right hand to the emperor and a spymaster, Yuan Bo’s influence over the kingdom runs deep. With this power, enact overt and covert policies across settlements, armies and even characters to best suit your empire’s needs. Crack down on settlement corruption, rush construction for your entire empire in a single move, create diplomatic deadlocks to move freely through unfriendly territories, and much, much more.

Go beyond mere balance and embrace disharmony, leveraging it as an excuse to serve more severe and extreme actions to fit your agenda, and plan chains of actions to ensure the balance of harmony is pulled back in your favour when all is said and done.

Yuan Bo doesn’t follow the rules. He writes them.

EMPOWER THE COMPASS

With a plan centuries in the making under the request of Yuan Bo’s father, the Jade Dragon is tasked with travelling to critical locations and constructing relays to empower the Jade Compass, before defending them from the Lizardmen incursions trying to dismantle Cathay.

Destroy them, and plot a course to victory.

Total War: WARHAMMER III Ratings & Reviews

Polygon

by Ewan Wilson

This new fortification system is also present in siege battles and small settlement engagements, and it's probably the biggest change to the overall Total War formula. Capturing points on the map builds up your resources, which you can then spend on fortifying defensible areas. It's a compelling tactical addition, bringing Total War closer to other real-time strategy games where it's not just about wiping out an army, but capturing points, defending them, and using resources wisely. It does, however, also take away from what Total War battles always seemed to be about: careful, tactical positioning within a semi-realistic environment.

A fitting capstone to the trilogy, the story-heavy campaign and an armload of exciting new factions lead Total War: Warhammer 3 to victory.
