In a zoom chat with two pensioners about internet security and fake websites etc, my colleague told them about Argos.cum I mean I don't think .cum is a top level domain *yet* - but I'm sure given time. Destry and Felice? |

Hello Games - Total Warhammer 2, getting pumped up for Total Warhammer 3. I’m playing as a vampire this time, marching lots of skellingtons to war. The creepy organ in the soundtrack is a nice touch. Not played the Warhammers, would you consider it needed before WH3? |

I am really into Resident Evil 4.
What a game. What an adventure.
I havn't got much to add to be honest. I was wondering if Argos was named after the God / monster Argos Panoptes.
I hope so ...

I like using Wikipedia to piss on people's chips. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argos_(retailer)#:~:text=Argos%20Limited%2C%20trading%20as%20Argos,the%20Greek%20city%20of%20Argos. The company was founded by Richard Tompkins who had previously established Green Shield Stamps in the United Kingdom. Whilst on holiday in the Greek city of Argos, he came up with the idea that people could purchase goods from his "Green Shield Gift House" with cash rather than savings stamps. |

Not even named after the legendary ship-builder Argos.

Not played the Warhammers, would you consider it needed before WH3? Yes, especially as not long after launch, you’ll be able to play a massive map with all the races/factions from the previous games. It can all get a bit pricey, so I’d wait for a sale and pick up both games and as much DLC as your wallet will allow. A lot different to other TW games, but a hell of a lot of fun trying out the different races and how they play. Rat boys are my favourites. Machine guns and nukes, what’s not to love? |

13/15. I am embarrassed I didn't score more. Pretty terrible. I didn't read the female album question properly I might have got it right if I had. A few guesses. I thought Grimes was a style of music, not a person. But still got the right answer. |

I take this back. It sounds like the synopsis for a terrible Neil Gaiman story.

The two race packs, tomb kings and vampire coast, as they add a lot more to the game. And then just slowly build up the lord packs, starting with The Prophet and the War Lord. Sounds ridiculous, but gives you the best character to play in Ikit Claw. There’s a big modding community too. It really comes into it’s own if you have the first game too though. The big map is fantastic to play on, and gives you even more factions to play as. |

Is there a war hammer in Warhammer?
Like a legendary hammer?
In the same way that the Horn of Helm Hammerhand might be considered a legendary horn?

As for the price dropping, the first game is still the full price, so it’s unlikely. It usually comes down quite a lot in the sales. Might be worth waiting for a sale, picking up both games, the big map free dlc, and all the other free dlc. That should be plenty to keep you occupied, and then you can pick up other dlc later if you want to.
