Dominate Ulthuan with the Total War: WARHAMMER III - The Warden & The Paunch DLC!

Experience epic real-time strategy battles and deep campaign gameplay with The Warden & The Paunch, a legendary Lords Pack now available for Total War: WARHAMMER III. This DLC introduces two iconic rivals from the Warhammer Fantasy universe, each bringing unique factions, objectives, mechanics, units, and distinct playstyles to both the Eye of the Vortex and Mortal Empires campaigns, as well as custom and multiplayer battles.

Unleash the Power of High Elves and Greenskins.

Command Eltharion the Grim, leading the forces of Yvresse (High Elves), or rally behind Grom the Paunch as he leads the rampaging Broken Axe Tribe (Greenskins). While neither faction is directly involved in the Vortex race, their bitter rivalry sets them on a collision course for an ultimate, climactic showdown where only one can claim victory. Prepare for intense warfare and strategic maneuvering as you forge your own destiny in the Old World.

The Eternal Nemesis Plot

Eltharion the Warden, ever vigilant, has long guarded Tor Yvresse against Greenskin incursions. After a past confrontation where Grom the Paunch's Waaagh! nearly brought ruin to Ulthuan, Eltharion vowed to protect his lands at any cost. But Grom's burning desire for vengeance and insatiable appetite drive him to gather his forces, cook up potent concoctions, and unleash a new Waaagh! upon the world, aiming to crush Tor Yvresse and force its Warden to kneel.
