Players who are new to Total War: Warhammer 3 may want to start with the basics

For players new to turn-based strategy games, or even just the Warhammer series in general, starting with a faction that is easier to use seems like the most logical choice. The good thing is that in Total War: Warhammer 3, just because a faction is straightforward or easier to use does not mean that it is weak. In fact, one of the easiest to use factions is also one of the most powerful.

Players looking to destroy their enemies and batter them with devastating melee blows should check out Khorne and his forces. Khorne has powerful starting units and heroes, which are quite easy to use. Though none of Khorne's troops are capable of using a ranged attack, the melee forces are strong enough to overwhelm most foes once in range.

For those looking to dominate with deception and manipulation, Tzeentch is the top choice

Players who swear their alliegiance to Tzeentch, the Chaos God of Manipulation, will find great success with the God's cunning tactics. Able to manipulate the levels of magic on the battlefield while attacking safely from afar with ranged magic, there are not many that can stand up to the power of Tzeentch. And to top it all off, they can also teleport instantly to anywhere on the map to flank unprepared enemies.

While the factions above are certainly powerhouses in their own right, players will perform best using the faction that stands out the most to them. Of course, they may fall in love with these factions, but it is always best for players to play what they are most comfortable with. When push comes to shove, having a reliable army at their disposal will be the ultimate counter to any attack against them.
