Tomb Kings are most likely DLC for TW:W II while the rumor is the third game is all Chaos factions. I'm really excited for the upcoming content and the third game. When all three games are combined, it's going to be a monster of a campaign.
Skaven are so much fun to play. I highly highly recommend everyone give them a go for their next playthrough. The food mechanic is a little tough at first but once I realized I should play them a bit like a horde faction and raid, sack and raze as much as possible, things started to snowball and I've got 4 stacks wreaking havoc on the maps. I run with two in tandem. Their elite units and artillery are so much fun. Rebellion in a province? So what, let them rebel, cull that little army and get food.
4-5 turns to build siege equipment?
Fuck that. I just send skavenslaves and clanrats at the walls and burn everything down with my artillery. I like defending sieges despite the AI being pretty stupid about it as I've had some triumphant, elated moments after winning one. I can hold off almost everything if my garrison is in top order and repelled a two stack High Elves siege. On the other hand, I lost a different siege because a unit routed right into the capture point, lol. It's pretty dumb they route right into the heart of your base and they should patch it so they route outwards. I had another battlefield fight with the Wood Elves and they bunched up in a dense forest in the middle of the map only to send out calvary and flying ranged units once I approached them. Not a bad move on their part but there's no stopping my quest for more warpstones!
Things are starting to get a little dicey in my region because the vampire faction that's decimated the northern part of my area is coming for blood. The AI was pretty slick because I was just going to let the left one take losses from attrition but after one turn of that, they switched stacks so the previous siege laying one wouldn't suffer any losses.
Little do they know I have a four warp lightning cannon, two Abominations, two Doom Wheel and a whole horde of Stormvermin army just about ready to make their way north. I'm going to wipe them out then finish the rituals. I might just send that stack into their territories and start razing everything if I can hold them here for a bit. Surely their lands are undefended now.
I'll robably go with edgelord Dark Elves for a Very Hard playthrough next and then if I feel like it, take a crack at a Legendary High Elves playthrough or go back to TW:W I because I never did play Wood Elves, Brettonia or Norsca. I'm not that excited to play High Elves compared to the other three races. Anyone playing as them?
