The guys at Creative Labs so far seem to "get" Warhammer as well.  Total War: Warhammer is looking very, very good.

My only complaint is compared to the DoW II trailer this looks cheap. Specifically the Space Marine proportions which imo were just right in that one. Still excited though. BFG has been fun so far and Deathwing looks amazing!

This announcement trailer is clearly of much better quality than the DoW II trailer/intro and perfectly captures the spirit and feel of the Warhammer 40K universe. The Space Marines conform to the new aesthetic from Games Workshop. They updated the miniatures a couple of years ago and the legs in particular were slimmed down a bit. I guess they've realized that the old style, while nice for still poses doesn't lend itself well to animation. Paul Leonard-Morgan did the score for this trailer and if he also makes the music for the game it will be nothing short of epic. DoW III will be the seventh 40K game Relic has made. All of which were excellent.

I've never been much of a fan of the Warhammer Fantasy setting, but I'm sure that will be amazing.

I'm well aware of the miniatures, have a stack of them next to me.

I'll always be a fan of the bulkier appearance of Astartes. And to be fair the miniatures don't look top heavy, even after the slimming.

But this is all opinion anyway. The in game screens looks promising so far. Stoked to have the Imperial Knights and Wraithknights in game.

Aren't Chaos marines for dorks, goths and anime fans? You know kind of like the brotherhood in skyrim.
