Editing Total War: WARHAMMER (section)

==TWW3==

*'''Ko-Ko-Kostaltyn''': Pretty much as soon as this man was revealed people immediately noticed a resemblance to a certain Russian mystic (AKA Russia's Greatest Love Machine). Needless to say, the memes came flooding in comparing the new Kislev character to his real life counterpart. Similar to Cylostra many people were upset that CA put an OC into the game, especially since to many he took Tzar Boris's spot as on of the 2 starting Kislev Lords... until it was revealed that Boris was in the game anyway, that is. That said, his resemblance to Rasputin did warm him up to many others, if nothing else than for the meme potential.

*'''Three Kingdoms of Cathay''': Another big Total War project running in parallel is Total War: Three Kingdoms, set at the fall of Han Dynasty China. Since Cathay is now a thing, cross contamination was inevitable.
** This meme's name also has another meaning, considering that Cathay has been split between the quarrels between Miao Ying, Zhao Ming, and their siblings.

*'''Sun Tzu said that!''': With the release of the Cathay trailer, a ton of jokes have been made referencing the famous Chinese general and the units in game with a quote from a Team Fortress 2 trailer. Quotes include "If your cannon can't kill the giant bird Daemon, make it bigger" ""If you want to fire a cannon in the air, tie it on a balloon" and "When the cannon is not killing the sky demon, send in the Dragon Waifu." Generally just making fun of the wackiness of Cathay (though to be honest, it would be more surprising if Cathay DIDN'T have their version of Sun Tzu.)

*'''Imrik's waifu/Imrik the simp/Imrik is a scalie''': With the Cathay trailer revealing [[Miao Ying]], a badass dragon lady who can shapeshift into a beautiful human form, people noticed that Imrik, as a [[Furry|fan of dragons]], would probably want to "ride" her. Cue jokes about his Mortal Empires start position being as close as possible to Cathay in-game, him pinning after her, etc. The presence of dragon-blooded human lords in Cathay do hint that Imrik may have a chance in theory, but sadly for our prince Cathayans Dragons find the very idea of a dragon being used as a mount absolutely revolting and think their "Western" cousins are debasing themselves for allowing the High Elves to ride them. So they probably don't like High Elves much. Better luck next time, Imrik!

*'''Cold and aloof''': Yet ANOTHER Miao Ying meme. These words are used every time in descriptions of the Storm Dragon, to the point of them becoming her unofficial title.

*'''CARAVAN''': Thanks to the Cathay caravans traveling through Greasus's turf, many ogre mains have decided that the best thing to do to get Meat quickly is to ambush said caravans. It also seems to be an 90% chance that your caravan (while playing as Cathay) will be attacked just by ogres.
update: since immortal empires came out, attacking Cathay caravans become an all-faction thing, sense attacking one can get you up to '''10k TO 100K gold!!!''', the dragon siblings can be full of piss and vinegar all they want, they ain't leaving Cathays walls anytime soon.

*'''#JusticeForTzeentch''': The release of the Cathay Trailer got the hype for game 3 into a massive overdrive as a new race would be introduce to the Warhammer world. Sadly, that hype was almost immediately driven off a cliff when screenshots revealed Chosen of Tzeentch, which as it turns out are just blue versions of the Chosen models we have had since day one. No, we don't know if this is a placeholder or not, but even if it is it severely pissed off EVERYONE who expected actual uniqueness in the Monogod factions. I mean, you already made unique warrior models for Khorne, so why did you take the lazy way out for Tzeentch? The community had banded together with a collection of complaints, memes, and arguing in the hopes that this will get changed. As it turns out, those Chosen units aren't even in the game anyway, they're just dismounted knights used for marketing. Fortunately they got remodeled when Immortal Empires came out and they look fucking SEXY now.

*'''OGRES, MY LORD!''' - The annoying reminder by The Advisor whenever an Ogre camp shows up to pick up some Ogre Mercenaries. Depicted once again by Tarriff, to the annoyance of Greasus himself.

*'''Build-A-Daemon Workshop/My Pretty Little Daemon Princess/Daemon Prince Daniel''': once the [[God-Slayer]] was revealed, a giant flow of memes immediately followed. Firstly, the ability to customize this Daemon Prince resulted in an expected comparisons with similarly customizable toys. Secondly, after CA showed him being named Daniel in their demonstration, this humorous and unassuming name became his official nickname. CA has even embraced it, referring to him as Daniel in the Immortal Empires map reveal. At this point, Daniel may as well be his canon name.

*'''The Southlands Thunderdome''': As soon as the new starting positions in Immortal Empires began to be revealed, it quickly became apparent that the now complete Southlands were going to be a giant slugfest, with tons of different factions vying for supremacy, making the newly baptized "Thunderdome" the successor of the Lustriabowl in Game 2. Oh, and if you thought this meant Teclis was finally safe, nope! CA decided to move him down there. Poor guy can't catch a break can he? Maybe he wants to be flanked from all sides like in Lustria?

*'''SHORT!?''': A reference to the Immortal Empires trailer where Thorgrim took offence to a comment made by Teclis about the High King being shortsighted. The reaction of the High King and the Dwarfs present was so over the top that now every Dwarf must write a grudge into the book everytime the word "short" or something similar is said to them (this page alone has 17 entries in the Dammaz Kron).

*'''Greenskin "Labourers"''': In the Theocracy of Zharr Naggrund, there are the Chaos Dwarfs and beneath them there are <s>slaves</s> ''Labourers''. Their economy is founded on labourers toiling in mines, you send out armies to get more labourers by winning battles and convoys to trade for more labourers and you use Goblin and Orc labourers in rags and chains as cannon fodder for your armies. The insistent use of the term even though was done to separate them from the Druchii, but it has lead to lots of comments comparing the Chaos Dwarfs to Amazon or the Greenskins unionizing and so forth.

*'''Big Hats''': Obvious Chorf Joke is Obvious.

*'''Drazhoath the cat lover''': One of Drazhoath the Ashen's lines when clicked on a deep sinister "Minu"... which happens to be the French word for "kitty". So the French fandom ran with the idea of this sinister evil wizard fawning over cats.

*'''The Wild East''': you know how in those cowboy films with trains and how it focuses on a train robbery? well this the Warhammer fantasy equivalent, but instead of the west its east, and instead of humans, its chaos stunties, similar to plundering fantasty-chinese caravans, you get a fuck-ton of gold for robbing them, best part is you don't have to feel bad about it, cause screw the chorfs and their compensating hats! Tho the historic "Wild East" sometimes refers to the late medieval/early modern period (1400-1600s) in eastern Europe and Central Asia, where Cossacks and the remnants of the Mongol Khanates roamed wild and free across the steppes, so the comparison is quite apt.

*'''norscan monke''': the primitive monkes that inhabit norsca, mocked by all for their inability to build walls, let alone understand walls and known for their obsession with bananas and are bullied and hunted by everyone and everything, especially by rakarth and the ogres, it's been documented for norscan brains to explode when trying to understand walls, can only count to 5, and to screech at anything and everything, this joke is particularly used by the youtuber tariff, mocking the norscans at every opportunity to the point their not even considered humans anymore.
