The Comet of Casandora signifies one of Warhammer’s most notable additions to the Total War universe: magic. The goblins have got no morale whatsoever, they’re going to break at the first sign of anything dangerous, whereas the Empire Greatswords will really be able to hold the line for you, with a big charge bonus they’re a real tank unit.” And the undead presumably suffer from morale differently-if the tabletop game is followed, I’d predict that instead of running away, they’ll progressively fall apart. “Of course, different factions react differently. “The Comet of Casandora coming down on your head will make you run away quite quickly,” says Mann. Monsters, defeat in combat, spells-anything can make your troops rout. Leadership and routing has always been a huge part of the Warhammer game, fear and terror its bread and butter.
