• When attacked, units should now only ignore orders (especially move orders) and return to combat when the majority of the unit is in danger and not in cases where a low number of entities face trouble. This should make cavalry in particularly feel more responsive when repeatedly charging, withdrawing and charging again.
  
• Fixed an issue where Mother Ostankya and her Hag Witches would shoot twice in quick succession when standing still.
  
• Giant Spiders and Spider Hatchlings can now make use of a selection of attacks while chasing routing enemies (including hops, skips and cute but deadly nibbles!)
  
• Fixed an issue that was causing multiplayer clients to override the `Guard` and `Skirmish` mode on units not under their control based on their local settings, especially when re-summoned in Domination.
  
• The Skaven 'Power Grab' passive will no longer trigger when the lord is teleport withdrawn in Domination and Survival battles.
  
• Changed the requirement of the Chaos Dwarfs end game scenario objective from only 'Control' to 'Raze or Control' settlements, allowing Beastmen to complete the objective.
  
• The Changeling's unique skill 'Adherents of the Trickster' will now correctly increase the Cultist Hero recruit rank.
  
• Fixed an instance preventing a valid battle map loading when fighting a sally out battle in the Athel Loren area.
  
• The Empire Forts and Oak of Ages settlements will now give defensive supplies when under attack.
  
• Fixed an issue in an Ulthuan Lakes battle map where impassable terrain was being created by a plane of water under the map
  
• Fixed a Chaos Wastes mountains battle map not having a valid playable area.
  

After the Total War Warhammer 3 community joined forces to voice concern over the increased pricing of the fantasy strategy game's DLC with Shadows of Change, developer Creative Assembly has issued a statement on Steam forum moderation about removing community members who "come here to be disruptive." This includes "doomsaying, calls for boycotts, or spreading misinformation," months after some of the community called for boycotts after the DLC price increase.

Total War Warhammer 3 looks to crush its biggest bugs in update 4.0

Total War Warhammer 3 update 4.0's full patch notes are here

• Fixed an issue with Battle AI melee target selection indecisiveness when in contact with multiple opposing units; as a result they should drop attack orders less often.
  
• Fixed an issue where the AI would assign a disproportionate number of units to hunt down opposing outlying units, leaving a skeleton crew to perform the main assault. We've flipped this so the AI should dedicate most of its force to the main engagement and not send its entire force to chase that one pesky outrider.
  
• Fixed an issue where player units with the transformation ability would occasionally trigger the AI's scouting behaviour. The underlying issue stems from how we handle transforming units, which are actually two separate units that swap places. When transforming, the AI would lose track of the original and assume it had gone into hiding, causing it to occasionally swap into scouting mode to search for Yuan Bo (The Human) while Yuan Bo (The Dragon!) was bearing down on it.
• Addressed crashes that could occur with certain units in siege battles where the AI is defending and has units that crumble, disintegrate or otherwise reach a microscopic amount of remaining strength.
  
• Fixed an issue with the previous Hotfix's Wood Elf outpost changes where some garrison units and effects were missing on certain buildings.
