The devblog covers some non-Warhammer Total War news as well: the Nanman are on their way to Total War: Three Kingdoms in the game’s first full-fledged expansion pack, which will also introduce gate pass battles and settlements to allow you to control choke points around your territory more effectively. Inferring from the developer’s use of feminine pronouns, he reckons the free lord is almost certainly the Wood Elves’ Queen Ariel, one of Warhammer Fantasy’s most powerful wizards and a certified demi-goddess sporting magnificent butterfly wings. He reckons the likeliest candidate for a new Wood Elf lord is Araloth, who he describes as “a grossly overrated character in my view whose big schtick is he has a bird.” The Sisters of Twilight, a pair of twins who ride into battle on a forest dragon, are also a possibility. The identity of the three incoming lords is an open question, and so we went to the basement to interrupt Rich as he glued the final bits of specially sourced gravel on the bases of a beautifully painted battalion of squigs.
The blog says if this new format is well-received, it might be repeated in future.
It’s all a bit confusing, but the general rule of thumb is that you’ll be getting more content as a reward for owning more pre-existing DLC and having stuck around since the beginning. That’s it – it’s still free, but base game owners are no longer getting a free legendary lord when updates roll out. If you only own the Total War: Warhammer II base game, the arrival of the new Lord Pack will mean you’re getting a new free hero, plus the game update with various and sundry bug fixes and rebalancing changes. The pack’s accompanying update will feature a third legendary lord, and they’ll be free as before, but accessing them works slightly differently now. Previous such packs have featured opposing Lords from two different races, but it’s not yet clear from which race the second lord will come.
Creative Assembly says the next DLC will indeed be a Lord Pack and it will ‘focus’ on the Wood Elves, who you’ll remember from the Realm of the Wood Elves DLC expansion for the original Total War: Warhammer. The latest devblog also details a new content scheme that will change the amount of new free stuff you get from here on out depending on how much Total War: Warhammer stuff you already own.įirst, though, the Lord Pack. It’s a Lord Pack, and will feature the Wood Elves faction – but that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Creative Assembly has provided some new details about the next DLC coming to Total War: Warhammer II.
