The Vampire Counts unveiled in Total War: Warhammer trailer

A cinematic trailer – which contains footage using the in-game engine – for Total War: Warhammer reveals The Vampire Counts, the last of the four playable races in the strategy title , with the others already known to be Dwarfs, Greenskins and the Humans.

The Vampire Counts have death magic and necromancy at their disposal, which means they are a deadly faction to contend with; did I mention that they also have zombie dragon mounts? The clip sees a Witch Hunter and his men facing hordes of skeletons and bats led by the chief acolyte of necromantic magic Mannfred von Carstein; we also see bits of large-scale battles between these hordes and the humans, as well as between the undead and the dwarfs.

Total War: Warhammer arrives on the PC on 24 May. Prepare for battle!
