Total War: Warhammer III Update 3.0.0 Patch Notes

STABILITY & PERFORMANCE

  • Fixed an issue that caused modded/custom characters to crash the game when opening the Recruit Lord/Hero UI.
  • Fixed a soft lock when trying to declare war on a player faction with which you have a pending diplomatic negotiation.
  • FPS drops when the Province tab is open should no longer happen.
  • A potential crash when going into battle due to the clean-up of military forces when leaving the campaign has been fixed.
  • Fixed an end-of-turn crash when Gotrek was killed at an inopportune time, causing a memory access issue.
  • A crash that could occur when siege towers dock on adjacent wall pieces perpendicular to each other has been fixed.
  • Fixed a crash that could occur when the game held data for province governorship for factions that did not own the province capital.

GAMEPLAY

  • You can now preview the landmark buildings you’ll get access to in a settlement by hovering over them.
  • The developers introduced a new pack file limit that increases the number of mods that can be hypothetically run simultaneously (barring any cross-mod issues).
  • We’ve added a new panel that allows you to search for certain items on the campaign map. There are two categories of search options available – physical items (settlements, provinces, factions, and characters) and landmarks/resources. Clicking any search result item will move the camera to show it.
  • Multiple buildings that were incorrectly marked as destructible have been updated game-wide, including those found within maps for the Vampire Counts, Dwarfs, Dark Elves, and more.
  • Updated the campaign map battle selection for both the Realm of Chaos and Immortal Empires campaign maps to ensure that the correct battle tiles are displayed.
  • Increased the effect of the ‘A Stranger Comes’ event for all order factions.
  • New regions and provinces have made their way into the Realm of Chaos and Immortal Empires campaign maps of WARHAMMER III.
  • Alongside the additions and relocations, several regions have border adjustments.

NEW ENDLESS SURVIVAL BATTLES

  • These battles can be played solo or co-op with up to 4 players.
  • Enemies will periodically spawn and attack you, featuring every unit from the chosen enemy race.
  • Each map has three capture points, with one starting within the player’s deployment.
  • Each capture point gives you supplies that can be used on reinforcements, upgrades, and replenishments.
  • The difficulty is scaled based on both the player count and the time survived.
  • These battles cannot be won.

GENERAL UPDATES

  • Fixed cases where Beastmen unit capacity would be increased twice from the same effect (e.g., +4 Harpies would give +8).
  • Fixed the Beastmen follower ‘Mannish Thrall’ not being equipped by the Wargor Hero.
  • Fixed an issue where the capital border image was missing on Beastmen settlements in the settlement panel.
  • Fixed Taurox and Oxyotl’s quest battles ‘The Heart of the Dark’ not playing the intro cutscene correctly.

CAMPAIGN

  • Fixed an issue where the Beastmen Herdstone upgrades were not applying.
  • Fixed the Ruinous Seances Herdstone building, not providing additional Dread from fighting battles.
  • Fixed Malagor’s Nightmarish Cabal skill, not reducing Bray Shaman Hero action costs.
  • Clarified the effect given by the unique Herdstone building available at Altdorf.
  • Fixed the Bray Shaman unit card on the campaign map.

SKILLS

  • Fixed Morghur’s Herald of Corruption skill by not applying corruption to adjacent provinces.
  • Fixed an issue where Malagor’s Crowfather skill would apply twice.
  • Fixed Malagor’s Something Wicked This Way Comes skill, reducing enemy leadership as the skill level increases.
  • Updated Beastmen skills and challenges to include buffs for Feral Manticores.

Lord of Fire Visual Update

The Lord of Fire has been completely overhauled, with every spell in the lore receiving new visual effects and audio treatments.

SETTINGS

  • Story Panels can now be viewed from the Movie Viewer, renamed to the Narrative Viewer to reflect its intended purpose better.

ACHIEVEMENTS

  •  Added 11 new achievements centered around the free Mirror of Madness DLC that launches with Update 3.0.

TEXT TRANSLATIONS

  • Adjusted the POL localization for ‘The Plain of Bones’ on the parchment map.
  • Fixed magic items and ancillary error texts not showing on items equipped by other characters.
  • Fixed the opponent settlement text in the diplomacy HUD not being localized in non-English languages.
  • Updated parchment map name positions for ‘The Abyssal Glacier’ and ‘The Southern Wastes’ for all languages.
  • Fixed an issue within tooltips, causing labels identifying ‘free’ content to be truncated.
  • Fixed the ancillary tooltip not updating when dragging and dropping a new ancillary to replace an existing one.
  • Removed irrelevant and incorrect faction text that could appear during a war declaration.
  • Swapped the names for the POL localization for ‘Southlands World’s Edge Mountains’ and ‘Southern World’s Edge Mountains’ on the parchment map so they display correctly.
