So here are my hopes for future DLC for this game Khemri (All but confirmed I think?) Araby Tilea/Estalia could be pretty neat. A few more lord options for the current factions would be cool, but I don't really feel a need for them. It would be pretty sweet if the Amazons got a pre-TW3 dlc release like Norsca. Overall though i'm super pumped to be playing as Ogre Kingdoms and using gut magic one day in the future. e: Do y'all know what's going to happen with lord trees in the new map? Are old world lords getting the level 40 cap or are new world lords getting shrunk to 30? Arrrthritis fucked around with this message at 03:21 on Oct 1, 2017 |

Supposedly they're taking all the old lords and bringing them up to speed for WH2, so they'll be getting the level 40 treatment. The trees they added at the end of game 1 aren't bad at all, so I assume they'll be changing what needs to be changed to put them on par with game 2. I'm really excited to see more info on the combined map. I know they're going to give this game time to breathe after release, but I want that combined map info ASAP. I want to see Winds of Death against a pile of Skaven.

I'd really like it if they did a half-update for ME so we can get all the WH1 stuff accessible in multiplayer, at least. I get the magic changes are probably making that troublesome, as well as fixing it up for the alleged army painter. BUT STILL FOUR RACES I need something to doomwheel spam and surprisingly other skaven armies are a natural counter to them. (Because all their good poo poo trumps large units.)

So when they do the big mega-campaign, how is that supposed to work? Will they be porting the old factions into WH2 and having them use the new mechanics like climate/rites? Or are they backporting the map/races into WH1, making them work like they did in that game with specific occupation regions and so on?

I expected starting a ritual would be a big deal. I did not expect to have 4 stacks of chaos and 2 intervention stacks all show up at once. Meanwhile my enemies are doing rituals and everybody's leaving them alone  And the intervention force I hired just got punk'd immediately.

Or are they backporting the map/races into WH1, making them work like they did in that game with specific occupation regions and so on? I have to imagine so. I mean think about it, the old rules like "dwarves can only conquer orc lands" wouldn't work in the new world at all, there's basically no orc lands. Things are too spread out that way and it wouldn't make sense, so I see the 'climate' mechanic as the perfect solution to that. I really love it, way better than the TW1 way. You're still massively discouraged from making the wrong climate your center of operations, but if you have the economy and the time you can do it so you don't have to just leave the enemy's lands in ruins. As for the rites, hard to say, but I'd love to see them added to the old factions. The rituals definitely will not be a part of the grand campaign and that's fine. Having the TW2 map as this more focused scenario is really really cool, and I imagine after we get the grand campaign I'll switch between GC and TW2 campaigns back and forth depending. (But probably never play TW1 campaigns again lol)

They've already stated Mortal Empires will use climates for everyone. Rites are a toss up, on the flipside.

This so very hard, unless you're playing Very Hard/Legendary (which both increase the extra upkeep for more armies percentage to a pretty crazy degree); I'm ~70 turns in and my Oldblood sailing around collecting all this stuff as easily made me upwards of 70k gold on top of all the various temporary buffs and magic loot for my lords and heroes gained alongside the cash.

Malekith is an idiot.

You are either gleefully ignoring the rulebooks for the last decade, or have only read End Times stuff. End Times was utter bullshit and had Malekith come back and take everything over. That was super dumb. I agree. But well before End Times the rulebooks laid out the idea that Malekith actually was supposed to be the Phoenix King, and the High Elves cursed themselves for how they handled the situation. The gods stopped appearing for the High Elves, stopped listening to their appeals. The "curses" that kept getting inflicted on the High Elves, the slow death of no/limited children. Demons being able to walk freely in Elven god temples without fear. There was tons of stuff suggesting maybe High Elven nobility threw their race under the proverbial bus so they could get a little bit more power. The only Elves that ever managed to break out of the curse stuff ended up being more heirs of Aenerion, with the wink wink nudge nudge being that hey you fuckers, heirs of Aenerion are supposed to be leading you, not your picks. There was always an underlying notion that Elven society was crumbling because Elven society had turned away from the gods will. Not insofar as Malekith should be Phoenix King now after everything he's done, but he was supposed to be back in the day before they took it from him. And there was always the running idea of whether or not having Tyrion or Teclis take the Phoenix King throne would be enough to break the various curses the High Elves were under, or if the problem was deeper still and they were in a real state of ruin they couldn't get back out of/set to be a dying race forever for the mistakes of their forebears. And then like everything else, GW looked at that thin line of subtlety and said "what if Malekith comes back and kills Tyrion in megaKhaine form, and then Teclis bows and says xxxxMalekithdarkslayer69xxx you are the coolest, you are my brother now.". On the note of Elf murder, how the gently caress do I get the Elves to stop rebelling as Teclis. I don't have the money to have additional armies sitting around to fight rebellions and these people are super angry 24/7. I also don't think I'm going to be finding wine in Lustria anytime soon. Any cool + Public Order Landmarks in Lustria I should know about?

I always took it that that dipshit being the rightful king was kind of proof that the elf gods sucked, since their chosen are pretty much all lunatics. I mean their main god's entire thing is being as boring and useless as possible (because he is 'perfect'). His role in myths is to sit there, let everything happen around him, and then when everything has worked out, nod sagely and go 'Yes, my leadership has clearly won the day, I endorse this good outcome I had nothing to do with'. Asuryan is basically the God of Middle Management (and/or a Mesopotamian king of the gods but I doubt anyone at GW would intentionally write it that way)

Here is another way to look at the situation. If Malkeith had any true claim to the throne then he pissed it away by actively working with his chaos cultist of a mother and when he tried to gently caress with the vortex the first time and got bitch slapped by the second most import elf ever. Also any gods who believe that the best kings are the ones who are going to either be murder crazy or as fragile as glass really should not be listened to.

Hey, Tyrion's madness will always be an issue, but Teclis got swole enough that he can lift his staff and jog now. He's probably ready to be Phoenix King. e: Also it's really hard to understate just how loving powerful Teclis is.
