Summary:
Saga title is a spiritual successor to Rome 2
Campaign pack coming up for a past history title, probably Rome 2.
Next big history game is a setting they've never done before. Will feature "important character relations that occur between the major personalities in the game."

Workshop for Warhammer 2 hasn't been enabled yet but will be. Manually installing mods still works.
Some nice little mods (better camera, resized lords, climate battles, thicker dust, bigger units):

IMAGINE
THE
'POSSIBILITIES!

>mfw patiently waiting to butcher Queer, Belegay and Shitsnik

Will they do an Age of Sigmar: Total War after Warhammer 3? Or will they pick another fantasy setting? I would like to see a Total War: Hyboria. They can still keep the legendary lord and heroes systems they've made for Warhammer. There's also magic and monsters in Hyboria.

LOVE ETERNAL!

If skarsnik doesn't return in TWH2 I will flip my shit

>patiently
Doing it wrong.

I'm trying but I'm stuck on imagining the horrific performance.

Having the oceans so small is going to be weird.

>Ulthuan reached by Bretonnians via rowboats or just walking if the tides are low

JUST

Moving through water is already too slow, if they make the oceans any better they need to massively buff navel movement speed.

Pretty good map, desu

MYTHOLOGY

Do Skink Chiefs have any utility in combat or are they purely for assassinating heroes?

Good, the crusade can get going early then!

Try Secret World or Age of Mythology

Is this the lore for that old Age of Mythology game? Where's Arkantos, Ajax etc? I loved that fucking game when I was a kid, Arkantos and whatnot could be LLs. Thats sick! never thought about it but now you made me fucking think about it and want for it.

final battles too easy? thoughts?

Reminder than Albion, all of the eastern islands, and half of the Southlands are going to get cut.

CHINA

>Combined map is released
>player numbers for TWW1 and 2 plummet

>Eastern Islands

???????

Do you mean "Western"

Cool

Super inaccurate map, they explicitly said it's not 1&2 stitched together

Army entirely composed of shades and death hags y/n?

They will be eastern when you wrap around the world

Can't wait to make Sigmar NATO with Asurand Dawi friends! Lizardmen can join too if they stop trying to genocide the younger races.

I thought you said "weast".

>Albion
>Southlands that isn't Araby or TK

Enjoy melting under any ranged fire

Why would Bretonnia want to crusade in Ulthuan?

Lizardmen are Gaullist France

That's the history one they're working on. But what will the Warhammer team do? Unless they want to make a Total War: Romance of the Three Kingdoms and include the mythical elements and make all the different lords and generals into hero/legendary lord units.

No we're pretty sure the history one is Ireland, probably viking invasion meme shit. It's even called SAGAS

How will Victoriacucks and Pike and Snooze fags ever recover?

You have no proof.
>"Again, to be clear, this isn’t the Old World and New World maps stitched together. We wanted to put gameplay and replayability first, so it’s effectively a new map in its own right."
That doesn't mean anything.

Ching ching Bing bong had swords, Spears, bows, crossbows, rockets, artillery, crazy weapons - everything you need.
I'd be down with that or even a straight historical

SAGA title is likely Ireland/Britannia, the user you're responding to is obviously talking about the next proper historical game coming after the Warhammer games are done.

Wtf? Won't the market for that be omega-small and isn't everyone just extremely tired of viking trash by this point? This will essentially bankrupt them right?

I guess they just want SEGA to cut them off so they can be bought by EA or something

how can some raggedy ass mod have a map ten times as good? seriously, the proportions are terrible. Ulthuan is literally 2 turns from any other coast.

Geheimnisnacht's map is something we can only dream of.

Oh well, then... Who knows. China would be nice. I'm also good with Pike and shot though. Or the colonial grab. Shit m8, I'll take fucking cave men give me total war 20000bc you can reuse mammoth assets.

That's not the real map, they haven't shown us jack shit about ME.

Do not under estimate the meme power of vikings.

And nothing of value was lost.
>mentioning albion at all

It's populated by Elves, what more reason do you need?

What the actual FUCK ??? There's a WH mod for CK2?? What is it called? Though it saying the year is '2010' is a major red flag I still want it, so bored of Game of Thrones one.

Iunno m8. These shades seem to be putting in work against high elf armies. I back them up with reaper bolt throwers who wittle the enemy down before they get in range, and then my hydras just insta-rout anything they come into contact with.

doesn't matter, through precedent we know what to expect. And it will never be as good as Geheimnisnachts.

>He thinks some randomly stitched together meme on a Taiwanese shadowtheatre forum is the actual map
Please save your complaints for when something concrete comes out

Gee golly, I dunno m8

Could it be that Crusader Kings is a completely different kind of game? Could it be that the Warhammer II map already performs pretty poorly in it's current size, not even speaking of adding 2 extra games worth of map onto it?

Like, you know that the Crusader King's map is literally a 2D drawing, right?

The name is right in the post, "Geheimnisnacht"

A chivalrous reason.

reddit.com/r/totalwar/comments/73t5dg/full_list_of_provinces_of_the_mortals_empire/

Damn straight.

It's populate by elven women who need saving and liberation from the stifling and inhumane manner in which the elves treat them, forcing them to Don armor and fight in the fields of battle instead of their.men

We can have both victoria and china with the boxer rebellion.

Nobody has drawn up the map yet. It sucks. From what I can infer its a little larger than the data leak though

AT LAST I MANAGED TO GET THIS FUCKING MISSION TO PROC

it's called Geheimnisnacht.

and it's starting date is 2010 imperial time, 11 years before the Vampire Wars. Best warhammer game there is imo.

No way we can verify this as the real deal or final product

Has anyone had any luck confederating as Dark Elves? I feel like I'm going to have to kill all these guys

God Mortal Empires is gonna be a fucking nightmare performance wise

When norscans murdered a self faction to one settlement and no armies, sorrounding it completely with four armies. Then they were willing to Confederate

>best warhammer game
>with that fucking combat

>>literally a 2D drawing
>>more accurate geography than 800million 3D super detailed map

Yes, it's almost like you can make a 2D drawing bigger and more accurate with less cost and performance hit than if you did the same on a fully modeled map.

Who would have thunk.

Problems:

Seems to need a paradox account to download (My CK2 is pirated so unless the folks on Rin can hook me up its ALL ogre)
Seems to run poorly on people's PCs according to their reddit
I'm very skeptical they were able to implement stuff like vampiric corruption for example and other warhammer stuff

Why do so many of you fags give such a huge fuck over Albion? It's a literally who island with almost no people on it.

Why aren't vamps playable, would they really just ignore the vortex?

AIPAC will give you a DLC for vamps soon.

Just finished my Hard Lizardmen campaign. Should I go for a Tyrion or a mommy playthrough next?

>I'm very skeptical they were able to implement stuff like vampiric corruption for example and other warhammer stuff
the Vampiric/Chaos takeovers actually happen organically if you turn foreign nobles/get them to worship chaos.

>best warhammer game
>bears no semblance to TT
>doesn't have unit models
Wew lad

>Game mostly about politics with basically no real combat gameplay
>"Best warhammer game"

Haw haw haw

Because they're British and refuse to accept high Elves are the British empire stand in for whatever reason.

Why would they let you play as Vampires in 2 when they have another game + DLC with vampires that they want you to buy

That's why, people get worked up over a mystery.

Especially when it's the mystery of the DRUIDS

Final ritual battle is a joke assuming youre coming with a good army

As soon as you unlock the vortex powers its even more ridiculously easy

Datamined straight from the Warhammer II files

You can literally go find it yourself

I mean stuff like on-map visuals like TW:W has - it looked great as the trees died and dead-vampire-thing swamps started popping up. But that high elf portrait alone makes me want to get it.

Because the only vampires on the map are either looney pirates or literal placeholders.

The End Times were a mistake.

Omnomnom

So has it been confirmed the dlc races won't even be a part of the vortex campaign and it's just the starter 4?

But its a shit mystery that was never relevant to the lore

Yes.

Seriously. What a fucking mistake. How to ruin a franchise.

You forgot

>Skarsnik completely forgotten

So the vortex really is just a fucking meme they used to rush the game out and the real game will be the grand campaign like always

Fuck it, rolling
Evens tyrion, odds mommy

this looks like some 3d porn shit
