gently caress yes.

Wanna play the Empire and stuff as well, but I think I'm going to wait for Norsca to make it back in for that. Then there's also the case of Wulfric's grand tour of Ulthuan that I have to do.

I'm hoping AI Queek stands up well in the Badlands. Simply adding a strong Skaven presence will make that area infinitely more fun to fight over instead of Dwarf vs. Greenskin: Eternal Thunderdome.

Similarly, I'm hoping Hell Pit Skaven will liven up the Chaos/Norsca grumblestacks.

I will ignore the Mortal Empires campaign until the Foundation update is in, but I will be all "hell yeah!" for the 12 MP factions.

Still can't decide if I want to raid/enslave the world as Malekith, while simultaneously defending my victims from the Chaos invasion (since DE absolutely destroy Chaos), or if I want to Queek it up in the Badlands first.

I stopped playing 1 before the Foundation update. How much, if anything, did it change for Vampire Counts? Are the four factions from 2 the only factions that are up to date in ME?

I was of a mind to do this as well but then I reminded myself that the new races will be just fine and only some of the old races will lack stuff I now consider necessary for funtimes and that it won't matter if AI Gelt has the new skill tree or not when the vermintide comes!

I figure Teclis, Morathi and Queek starts in ME will keep me busy until they get the Norsca update in there.

I also hope they have made skaven autoresolve stronger or AI skaven factions will get absolutely dumpstered.

Not much for Vampire Counts. Mannfred got a tweak where he recruits graveguards with more XP off the bat, and Kemmler got buffs that makes him suck a lot less, but that's about it.

I think the main bummer for vampires would be getting double hosed by inhospitable climate+low corruption. But I've heard there's not that many places where this is relevant.

I will definitely be sailing my imperialist human forces to the savage rainforests of Lustria on a grand moustachiod adventure.

Then Grombrindal is going to Karak Eight Peaks. He's going to Karak Kadrin. He's gonna go to Karak Norn. We're going to Skavenblight. THEN WE'RE GOING TO ULTHUAN TO FINISH THE BEARD WAR. KAZUKAN KAZAKIT BYAHHHHHHH!

A moist zombie doesn't hold together too well. Also harsh sunlight tends to make it difficult to keep up a gloomy atmosphere with your downtrodden peasant populace and they start getting tans and going to the beach and you can't get anything done.

So even though it's a free download, I'm getting sent to the checkout page, which can't process my payment...of zero.

Why.

Why are you making me checkout. For a free dlc.

If the 4.5gb update isn't mortal empires, just how loving high res are these blood textures?

I was getting the payment method error thing in Steam itself but clicking download on the page here worked for me. It's an extra 680mb download on top of the 4.5gb of the patch.

Remember you don't need WH1 installed for Mortal Empires to work. I uninstalled it specifically to make sure I'd have space.
