Dive into the lore of the Sky Fleet of Grand Cathay! You can explore the setting in Total War Warhammer 3: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1142710/Total_War_WARHAMMER_III/
In this Units of History episode we turn to the lore of the mysterious lands of Grand Cathay!
We begin with the foundations of Cathay in the eons before recorded history.
It is here that the Celestial Dragon took an interest in the emerging human clans of the east, uniting them as Emperor and forming a great Empire. We look at the Campaign Map of Cathay to discuss its various provinces and border regions. Then we talk about the defenses of the Great Bastion of Cathay which features both formidable defenses and armies.
Finally we turn to the origins of the Sky-Lanter and Sky-Junk fleet of Grand Cathay. We look at their history, their equipment, and their tactics with a poignant case study of their devastating power at the Siege of the Snake Gate by the army of Nurgle and Tzeentch.
