Total War Warhammer 3 opens new siege beta, but you need to join quickly

We've likely got a bit of a wait for Total War Warhammer 3's Tides of Torment DLC after Creative Assembly delayed it earlier this year, but there is a silver lining. A new siege rework beta is now open, letting you test out some changes and offer CA a little feedback. But you better be quick if you want to take part, as the beta is open for a limited time only.

R.I.P Total War: Warhammer's arse ladders (2016-2025)

"When our fathers stood against the Persians," spake Greek statesman and general Pericles, "they had no such resources as we have now". Time, of course, muddies the clear waters of specifics, but I'm basically sure he was talking about the ability for each of his men to keep a thirty foot ladder snuggled safely away in their rectal passage just in case they encountered any massive walls.

Which is probably where Total War got the idea from. Since launch, The Total War: Warhammer series has given each troop, from the lowliest Chaos Chosen to the bravest and most beautiful ratman, the ability to magic a ladder from nowhere during sieges. There's a mod for Total War: Warhammer 3 that removes them, but now the end of arse ladders is getting official support, including tweaks to hopefully teach the AI how to behave without them.

Creative Assembly is changing how Total War Warhammer 3 sieges work, and it's calling for players to help test the rework by joining an upcoming proving grounds. While we'll be waiting a little longer for the strategy game's next DLC to arrive, CA has been hard at work on major changes in the meantime, and it talks us through the first part of a grander TWW3 siege rework in a new developer blog.
