The only thing Old World edition is is a rerelease basically. It only comes out with Bretonnia to try to bring up hype and sales is my guess. That and the book.

>>160145351
So that they can have Warhammer New World edition with less confusion.

>>160145726
In all my games they do. This makes sense considering they migrated to Portugal in real life.
The Vandals made an attempt to head to Africa through Spain as well but I ended them rightly.

I assumed out of the two we'd get Bretonnia first and then Welfs after, or both at the same time with the Welfs being paid and Brets being FLC. I didn't think they'd push Brets back to next year, especially after they released them as a multiplayer faction

Why wouldn't you trust the leak? Not only was it right every time, but it is datamined directly from the game files. You could go dig them up yourself if you really wanted to.

Well the flc was on a different timescale in the sense that it is one behind because there was no flc for DLC01 Warriors of Chaos. It was also right every time, so I don't know how the hell you thought it was on a different time scale.

All in all, it sounds more like you really wanted a simultaneous elf and brett dlc, so you deluded yourself into ignoring all evidence otherwise. You just set yourself up for guaranteed disappointment.

It is now November. An unbidden chill steals over the forest. The boughs lie heavy with frost, condemned to an early winter. Gaurach-Dúin in the tongue of the Asrai, it is a time of stillness and a time of dread. The fey spirits to whom the protection and provision of the Asrai is entrusted are consigned to an unshakable somnolence, unable to fulfill their sacred trust. The Wood Elves, deprived of their sturdiest companions, are forced to toil for themselves. It is the final horror. Some kinbands retreat deep into the roots of the wood, unable to countenance debasing labor and the necessity of work. In the halls beneath the Oak of Ages, The Sisters of Twilight nestle close to one another. Many are the Asrai who join their Dryad sisters in pursuit of warmth and the long sleep that stretches across seasons.

But the forest has need of its guardians, and will not abide dereliction of duty. Naieth preaches dire auguries in the early coming of the Season of Stillness. To those who have known Gorposting, Goblins and embarrassing rats, a still greater terror lurks. A great sorcery wrought in rain-cursed Albion will thrust the Asrai to the fore of the outside world's unsightly struggles and toil; The strange world of wageslavery can be ignored no longer.

Wood Elves Soon.

>>160153176
The Asrai have transcended work and live outside the vicious cycle of wage slavery that makes a mockery of man and devours his years.

Its a terrible mistake to assume the lack of a wage-based economy means communism.Communism is another bleak labor system. Labor is in and of itself a debasing act regardless of whatever system is designed around it.

The Wood Elves rely, among other things, on a post-scarcity magical economy providing endless access to sustenance, slavery and forest spirits for labor, and the providence of an eternal monarchy that has practiced a benevolent and decentralized rule for millenia. They spend their time on more ennobling pursuits like great theatrical performances in celebration of things that never happened, /ss/, and tea.

Do you think Alberic of Bordeleaux will actually start in Bordeleaux when Bretonnia gets added? I ask because I hate Vanilla Bretonnia's color scheme, and the Bordeleaux subfaction has nice blue colored troops. Sorry if this answer seems obvious:

>>160156893
A faction pack for factions are in a more comfy position (east Africa and Arabia) with more unique religion mechanics.

>>160156893
People were just glad for the decent variety and the change of pace after the previous DLCs.

>>160156893
In my opinion its was a breath of fresh air in the sense that i wasn't just another god damn barbarian faction and an actual civilization that wasn't rome or sassinid. The new religions and increased religious tension were very welcome change as well. Tanukhids made the rebel army part of it all very believable and fun for me plus Himyar's Zafar Sentinel units are just sexy as hell to me

>>160158276
I'm no expert, but I know that the Dwarfs work with the Humans because of a pact they made centuries ago, that doesn't mean that they'e above getting into a grudge-related skirmish or two with them.

>>160158276
Unlike 40k, the empire in Fantasy isn't totally xenophobic. At least one of the larger cities has a dwarfen district and there's mutual trade.

Of course the dwarfs have had grudges with the humans, which leads to their autism rages. They once built a castle for a human lord, and his pay was off by two copper, basically. This was enough for the dwarfs to come back, slaughter his dudes, tie him down and dismantle his castle brick by brick infront of his eyes.

But those sort of grudges aren't totally common.

>>160158367
Chaos stops being a massive issue once you kill the Chaos warriors faction. That includes Archaon, Kholek, Bird, and Sigvald stacks.

>Time flows strangely under the eaves of Athel Loren; a day can pass in an eye-blink or stretch away into eternity. Indeed, it can do both at once, for the passage of the seconds is never so subjective as it is within the forest’s timeless glades. As a result of all this, the time within Athel Loren rarely overlays precisely with that of the outside world. This is compounded by the fact that time is not even uniform within Athel Loren.

>One might wander lost within the forest for decades, only to emerge later on the very day that he entered. Navigating through Athel Loren is no easy task, for the forest’s landmarks and glades are ever-shifting. What was open clearing one night may be heavily wooded the next morning, and pathways often disappear or turn back on themselves without warning.


Time and Space are explicitly irregular in Athel Loren, and there is something referred to as "The Dreaming Wood" that is a differing reality that is overlaid upon 3DPD existence due to forest NEET magic. The lore makes it quite clear it is the land of waifus where 2D can walk among us due to magic bending space-time, and you just look petulant and silly denying it.

Very close.
The same way dwarfs will hold a grudge forever, they'll also remember a good deed.
In this case it's the fact that Sigmar (when he was still a mortal king) saved the life of the then High King.
That's how he was given Ghal Maraz.

There have been some minor squabbles since then, but nothing like a war or anything.

The Dwarfs also taught the humans (who were iron age level back then) about advanced metalworks and later, during the chaos invasion of Archaon's predecessor, about blackpowder.

>>160176539
If they had pistols instead and lost the armour, they'd be okay.

>>160158276
Empire and dwarfs are best bros because of Sigmar and the High King teaming up.

Bretonnians have friendly relations with the dwarfs but aren't nearly as close to them as the Empire.

No idea about Kislev and the other human nations.

>>160176249
It's Long Drong's Slayer Pirates and they use pistols and cutlasses ffs. I guess there aren't any dwarf models with pistols yet.

In the groves and glades of Athel Loren, the season is the only meaningful measurement of time. For those for whom every provision is readily provided and little written word exists, one day is much like another. Time, an inconstant at best within the boughs of Athel Loren, has little bearing upon the Asrai. But there exists a gnarled and stunted set of beings for whom the past is an unscalable barrier. The Dawi, a race of tinkerers and laborers, mutter and toil in the bowels of the earth, forever dwelling upon imagined wrongdoings and a supposed halcyon period of greatness.

From their cold and uncomfortable cloisters of stone, the Dawi congratulate themselves on their miserable conditions. They humor themselves that their artifice and spiteful deforestation must be some great bane to the Asrai, with whom they nurse a one-sided grudge of obscure origin. It is typical of the Dawi to be fixated on a matter of materials.

While it is true the Asrai look on the Dawi with distaste, it is the unstinting revulsion of a race that consents to a life of slavery and resentment beneath the lowest Bretonnian peasant. (Though, in truth, the Dwarf draws up lower than even that hunched breed.) A so-called "Elder" race, the Dawi resemble nothing so much as the Rats and Goblins they proclaim to despise, endlessly muttering into their burrows and tunnels, bending their backs to some fruitless labor.

One fucking way they could make Chaos not shit would be to actually represent the Mark system from tabletop instead of these gay-ass banners you can't even buy in multiplayer.

Choosing marks on tabletop meant your units functioned differently, even if they were the same kind of troop. Khorne units could do more damage and Tzeentch units could endure more ranged fire. But God forbid CA actually incorporates a shred of creativity in their shitty cheap cash-grab port. Instead of being able to recruit god-dedicated Maruaders or Warriors or Chosen (which would have required MINIMAL effort) they decide to just make all the units generic/undivided and slap limpdick banners that allude to actual Marks.

And maybe give the faction that relies the most on monsters good fucking monsters? Maybe cheaper than other factions' monsters? Is that too fucking much to ask?

So are we in agreement that Wood Elves is the last paid faction DLC for the base game and Bretonnia is the last DLC faction overall?

"The Old World Edition" is also going to be the official update name in February. That sounds like all major DLC development will be finished on the base game and the extended free DLC content and minor paid content is to tide us over till the first expansion releases which sounds like a possible Summer 2017 release. I was expecting Tomb Kings to expand the southern map before the first expansion(due to Lizardmen being in the Cursed jungle) but they could be saving them for Expansion 3 along with CD's and Ogres.

Meaning "The New World" is confirmed as part 2 of the trilogy bringing High Elves,Dark Elves,Lizardmen,Naval Warfare(whether modern style or the pre Empire is unknown) and a shit load of AI factions and land. That would mean a paid DLC Skaven race as they have a heavy presence in the Old World and a large one in Lustria being the arch enemies of the Lizardmen.

There is going to be a High Elf quest to take it back isn't there?

A branching questline where you either take it back by military or diplomatic means, suffering the consequenses of whatever you chose

So expanded Chaos Wastes and maybe a Empire theatre style Realm of Chaos confirmed? Fuck yeah.

Pic very related. Chaos Wastes.

Read the leak.

>>160179317
Since the second game is supposed to stand on its own, its hard to see how Tomb Kings could ever fit as an expansion for it, unless the base game's map was also included and you just couldn't select any of the old world factions without owning the base game. Lustria, Naggaroth, Ulthuan + Khemri just doesn't work, and Ogres is even worse.

The datamining makes it fairly certain they are coming long before the third game with the chaos daemons, which we were also told will be a "final boss" after the rest of the series is fleshed out.

I'm looking forward to this guy, Throgg the Troll King.

Lessened upkeep on trolls and giants, maybe an army-wide Leadership buff whilst he's still alive.

>>160179430

>>160179568
Throgg would be great, because it'd mean I could just roll with him and Kholek.

>>160179568

Hopefully some built in Skarsnik style buff skills to make trolls actually useful

Expansion 1. New world.

Distant enough for full standalone if not installed with all the previous DLC and base game.

Expansion 2. Land of the Dead,Araby and Darklands. The natural boundary is already ingame. You would see the old world map but can't interact just like right now you can see the south and east map but can't interact. There's already a border for it.

I don't see how they could do a 4 faction Expansion 2 serving the 4 chaos gods. There's no other map space to do that except in the Chaos Wastes and even then that would require a larger northern map.

>>160179760
Regular, Stone, River, Chaos, Bile.

>>160179760
Let me see if I can remember...

River trolls, Stone trolls, generic trolls, Chaos trolls, Blight trolls (Nurgle-aligned), I think that's it.

There may've been other variants aligned with other Chaos gods, but I'm not sure if they ever had rules aside from Marks.

>>160179698
He'd need to have a unique building chain so he could recruit trolls, ogres, and monsters earlier than otherwise at the very least.

>>160179760
Greenskins get stone trolls. Warriors of Chaos get Chaos trolls. There are also river trolls, typically found in greenskin armies, and regular trolls that live in the north of the old world.

4 I think, Chaos trolls, trolls, Rock trolls and River Trolls. River trolls I guess would be posionous and they used to be the only ones that vomit acid. Rock trolls are armoured (scaly skin). I guess armoured trolls look novel but wouldv'e been cool to see them in suits of chaos armour like mordor trolls rather than shields strapped on.

I like how the Fog of War model for Crookback Mountain is already ingame despite the Darklands not being available for a long time to come. Pic very related.

For those not knowing what that is. Crookback Mountain is controlled by Clan Rictus and is the Skaven's main stronghold in the Darklands east of the Worlds Edge Mountains. Its their main transit route east so *all* Skaven have to go through Crookback to get into the Darklands as per their Under Empire tunnel network.

Do Ogres also have trolls?

So who should be released with a southern expansion with Tomb Kings? Araby sounds like a logical choice. Also, how are they going to handle the savage orc invasions?

>>160179210
>OUR KING WAS SO COOL
>DWARF DIPLOMAT SMELLED LOL SMELLY MANLET.

Totally unbiased for sure.

Meanwhile, all non-elvish sources agree that Caledor II was a total douchebag who caused a massive war becaues his prissy feelings got hurt.

Thanks anon!. Dawi confirmed for best race. High Elves confirmed for faggots. This is only the elf grudge? I assume there are chapters on other races?

>>160180094
What non dwarfish non-elven sources are there? It'd be interesting to read a third-party account if one exists.

>>160180087
Southern expansion would be just Tomb Kings race pack/campaign pack along with AI southern dwarfs,araby,vampires of Lahmia and Lizardmen of the Cursed jungle along with 20-25 settlements or so for conquering by the ingame factions. It's not a real trilogy expansion.

I doubt Araby would ever be playable

>>160179831
>Land of the Dead
Having Nehekhara as part of the Expansion is frankly retarded. Why the fuck would they leave out this area for the second expansion when most of the Old World is already there? Tomb Kings are more than likely DLC for this game, since it is simple to just expand the southern border.

>Araby
Again, retarded. I mean it would be kind of cool, but it is wishlisting at best. The chances of Araby being in this game are slim to none, and there is no way in hell they are getting in over the Chaos Cults.

I can see it as some DLC at the very end after all the main factions are made, but as part of the second expansion is pretty ridiculous.

>Dark Lands
Why in the fuck would this be placed together in an expansion with the other two? These things are supposed to be standalone. In other words you don't need the other two games to play. How in the fuck is that supposed to work when the regions aren't connected to one another?

>I don't see how they could do a 4 faction Expansion 2 serving the 4 chaos gods

The realm of Chaos is a thing, though highly unlikely admittedly. However the Chaos Wastes can obviously be extended. And why the fuck would a larger northern map be a problem? The whole point of the expansions is to expand the map in the first place.

>>160180139
The only non evil developed civilization that existed that time were lizardmen, and they separated and crippled dwarf holds causing earthquake.

>>160180052
Ogre Kingdoms don't, but Chaos Ogres could be taken alongside Chaos Trolls in a Throgg army.

>>160180030
Holy shit. Is that recently added? They even have a model for Mount Silverspear/Mount Grimfang just further north on the map which is just further east of Karaz a Karak past the Silver Road as the lore states.

AHHHHHHHH.

Maybe we got it all wrong. Maybe New World is the second expansion(gives more time for naval development) and the first heads south and east.

>>160148895

>>160180216
>simple to expand the border

we haven't seen them 'add' landmass for any of the DLC's yet and it is unlikely they will asides from Athel Loren and Skavenblight (possibly eating some dwarf provinces near Kislev and Estalia to make Fester Spike and Hell Pit.

Why would they? None of the DLC called for it in the slightest.

The map for those places already exists ingame and the border boundary already exists. It's not impossible. There is also a sea to the east where you can sail around and the southern worlds edge is also there to allow mountain pass access.

The fact they are calling Februarys patch "The Old World edition" implies that the core DLC development for the base game is finished and they now move onto the first expansion post content support with a smaller skeleton team releasing the minor free content to tide us over.

Warhammer worth getting, or wait until end of year sale assuming there is one?

A bit off put by the 45$ worth of DLC with more on the horizon, on top of a full price game. Don't particularly enjoy getting nickel and dimed to get a full game.

t. burned by Rome 2, never played Attila, but strong liker of all prior games

>>160160329
Just as planned

>>160180725
>Don't particularly enjoy getting nickel and dimed to get a full game.
The ride is just beginning

>>160180289
so talking about all non-elvish sources for a dwarf/elvish conflict doesn't really amount to much if that just means dwarf sources.

>>160180725
Get Attila in the sale if anything

>>160180797
So Attila is decent? Is it what Rome 2 should've been on release?

I might pick that up instead then.

>>160180774
I feared as much.

>>160180139
No but there are lore pieces written from a "generic" objective view. These are less detailed but it's generally stated that Caledor II was a giant asshole who made a bad situation much worse.

>>160180446
point is it is unlikely they planned to add any landmasses until the expansions. Compared to making a faction it is easily double the work to make those new assets. Nehekhara alone will require maybe 4-5 factions, new settlements, new landscapes and deserts and all with Tomb King themes. Also araby cannot be ignored without cutting a lot of nehekhara out.

>>160144803

Is there any chance that we will get a LOTR mod for total war warhammer?

>>160180927
Attila is definitely the better game - razing was toned down in a patch so it's not that bad now, no more desolate wastelands.

My only gripes are the setting which is a bit dull, and the fucking turn times

>>160180990
There is exactly one I can think of, in the 8th edition rulebook.

That's literally Crookback as described in the lore.and that Greenskin mountain is also in the picture in the distance(I forgot its name, I know Silverspear was the dwarf name)
I wish I checked this out before recent updates to see if that's been there since launch.
>>160180375
Skaven won't be in the base game. That's been confirmed for months(though I guess its possible that could change based on how well Warhammer has done). The original plan for the base game was Empire,VC,Dwarfs,Greenskins,Skaven,Ogre Kingdoms and Bretonnia but they realised they didn't have the resources budgeted to them via SEGA due to the untested fantasy setting and the uniqueness of factions and models they were going for so they cut Skaven and Ogres out straight away for future installments. Put Bretonnia on the backburner as one to slowly be developed and added Chaos Warriors instead.

By the end of the first part we will have:
>Empire
>Vampire Counts
>Dwarfs(including subfactions)
>Greenskins(including subfactions)
>Chaos Warriors
>Bretonnia(including subfaction if Bordeleux is confirmed)
>Wood Elves
>Beastmen
>Possible Tomb Kings with map extension south.

if the leaks are correct then New World expansion:
>High Elves
>Dark Elves
>Lizardmen (including subfaction)
>Skaven (Including subfaction)
>Potential Ogre Kingdoms which means eastern map expansion
>Potential Chaos Dwarfs

That would mean a Chaos God expansion capping the trilogy:
>Daemons of Chaos(including the 4 chaos god subfactions) so 1 main and 4 subfactions each devoted to the different Gods.
>Map expansion further north into the Chaos Wastes aswell as a use for the Chaos Wastes in the New World maybe even some Realm of Chaos action.

Obviously this is just theory but CA are releasing it all geopolitically so we can assume how they will release content.
