You Can Micro Sky Lanterns

A Total War Warhammer 3 Tutorial Sky Lanterns. Double your damage with this overly micro intensive trick!

"Try spinning - that's a good trick!"

[jamesbernadette]

I can already see some modder implementing an ability button to sky lanterns to make them auto-spin 😄
Beyblaaades!

Spinning hot air balloons, of all the things in any fantasy universe this has to be the single most silly thing ever

[Gorn]

I can imagine them as support units right above your melee line giving harmony buff and firing on targets on the ground atleast thats how i think about using them

[frankmc]

There's a hotkey for rotating your units in-place: Ctrl + arrow key.. I used to do this in Shogun 2 with the ships that also had separate gunners on each side, if you just hold down control and an arrow key (plus shift to queue the commands, I think? at work now) you could queue up multiple rotations of spinning in a couple seconds so you don't have to keep the lanterns exposed in the middle of the enemy army and it's not so tedious clicking.

[RDarkhill]

It would be even funnier if the gunners started to throw up after too much spinning.

[Grivehn]

That pvp match where you figured this out was such a meme xD

[LordDarthHarry]

Reminds me of the Hapan "Battle Dragon" ship from the old Star Wars Legends canon. They had less advanced Turbolasers that couldn't recharge as fast as the ones of, for example, Imperial Star Destroyers so they arrayed them in a spinning ring around the ship to cycle them.

I thought the 360 no scope meme died years ago.

[Sleepingdruid]

Dude I watched you discover this in the FFA you played with Turin, Rubber Duck, and Dhav. I appreciate the moment of innovation.

[Dhakhar]

"Get 360 No Scoped" - Sun Tzu, probably

[zefyrisd]

Next patch note :
Sky Lanterns
- Now gets affected by "Dizzy" after rotating 20 times.
- Dizzy : lower the accuracy by 30%

Oh, and this spin to win is Suzaku approved.

[ShirosTamagotchi]

If you spin them enough you also unlock the special "drop puke" ability

[dawsonwilliams]

I would love to see this concept made into a regiment of renown

[jj_see_film]

We just discovered the minigun in total war

[ST]

Wait! I know this trick already. So sweet of CA to implement the hulk spin from Age of Empires 4! :D

AOE4 French players have entered the chat

Hi Enticity, Chinese player here
Great video and I think this exactly why you shoot out less ammunition (and it indeed cost less ammunition) but more accurate if you control the skylatern manually

and oh yes, you can try manually control the skylatern, it's freaking awesome :)

[TheJwlindfw]

This is just like AoE4's water combat, Spin-To-Win!

[ward]

I think these things will be really good against slaanesh since- if you can win the air war- they can sit on the middle point, give harmony and snipe squishy slaanesh chariots
