Gameplay Mechanics
Total War: Warhammer is a unique strategy game that combines turn-based elements with real-time action. During the game, players will rule over their kingdom, gaining more influence through diplomacy, alliances, and battles. The gameplay is divided into two main elements. When we are managing our kingdom, the game uses turn-based mechanics. Performing actions on the map takes time and requires us to wait a certain number of turns. However, battles are settled in real-time - during encounters, players will have to use various strategic maneuvers to outsmart, and ultimately beat their opponents. It is worth mentioning that having a bigger army will not guarantee victory.
