If it isn't enjoyable, it isn't gaming!

Lovely looking Armies.

I haven't played KoW3 yet, but it's a great looking book!

I haven't played KoW3 yet, but it's a great looking book!

Great looking book lots of pics and break down. so similar to WHFB.

24 Erratas in there.

One thing I noticed, even though I know the rules quite well, but finding out where to find traits like Yielding, etc, was rather odd. There is no mention in special rules, then you find it under Individual. The rules have an index of all the main chapters of the book, but to not have a "break down" index of the rules themselves has let this rule set down. Looks like I will be doing a "look-up" index myself!

We’ve been playing quite a bit of KoW3 - there are bits of rules that are harder to find than they should be. But overall there aren’t that many pages of rules so its not too bad.

As with most games its the various special rules that are the complex / hard to remember bit. But at least with KoW its one list of special rules that are applied to all armies, rather than each army having their own special rules.

Sounds like a typically brutal KoW game, with lots of units getting killed mid-game.
