Warhammer I & II are on sale until 1 June, so there may be some new Warhammer players around and I wonder if experienced Warhammer players would be willing to share tips. I'm familar with previous Total War games, and I've enjoyed stories and films in fantasy settings such as Middle-earth, but Warhammer's setting is new to me. I'm excited about exploring an unfamiliar campaign map and seeing what the factions offer.

There may be other Total War players, who are familiar with selecting the right unit for the task (swords against spears, spears against cavalry) and tactics such as cycle-charging cavalry and flank attacks, but who (like me) are wondering how to handle magic, monsters and corruption.

If you've played Warhammer for long enough to pass on some tips, I'd like to read them.
