How Daemonic Glory can turn the tide in a player's favor

In Total War: Warhammer 3, there are five paths that the Daemons of Chaos can take during their journey into Daemonic Glory. Each of these paths represents a different Chaos God. The Gods they represent consist of:

• Tzeentch
• Slaanesh
• Nurgle
• Khorne
• Undivided

When players complete their quests, finish a battle or event, they will gain a certain amount of Glory that gets distributed to the Daemon Prince for the different paths of Daemonic Glory.

When a player dedicates a settlement to a specific Chaos God, it unlocks Daemonic Glory in that God's path. Unlocking further experience into each path will generate abilities and mechanics that are unique to each individual Chaos God.

This allows players to tailor the path they wish for and help sway the battle with the power of Chaos Gods.

Using Reign of Chaos to grant a combat boon to the player's army

When players begin to strike down their enemies and do damage to them, they begin to gain stacks of Reign of Chaos. The more damage they deal, the faster their ability will charge.

Once Reign of Chaos is completely filled up, it will unleash a powerful ability that players can use in battle. Having higher Daemonic Glory with a specific Chaos God can help one hone in on the individual skills they desire.
