To the map: Now I want to see all subfactions, too.^^

Whoever made the legend clearly has no interest or knowledge of the game, pretty shocking to have that many errors, map looks whopper though!

Pretty easy mistake, they make loads of assets every day. I didn't pick up on it until after posting as well. Nobody's perfect

Yeah I edited my post as soon as it was fixed but not quick enough! Just finished my first campaign in Warhammer 2 and it was honestly the best Total War campaign I have ever had and I have been playing since Shogun 1. Great job with the interaction with the community too by the way

Even Queek and Skrolk are wrong. Someone rush this out

Tig

Oof. I kind of wonder if the map won’t be overwhelmingly big... Only one way to find out!! Thanks, CA!

RikRiorik

Didn't know the Lord of the End Times was a druggie. He's doing at least a little 'e'.

@CA_Whelan Gianthome Oblast? I think they are mountains? The Gianthome Mountains, right?

Skarsnik_De_Emperor

The more empty the space is, the more likely there will be dlc / flc faction in the future.

Besides, TK, Araby, Game 2 main factions dlc (someone mentioned above).

Boris, Amazons, Kislev are all possibly added

Melodious

*nevermind*

Can’t wait to see @Lord_Xelos comment

Guys where is Hellpit supposed to be? I know it was datamined.

So can someone please explain to me why there was such an outcry about the ME map? Look pretty great to me in terms of size and proportion? The weaker section to play looks like the South East of the map, but I think when all of the races are added for this game it should be pretty damn epic.

LL placement could be tweaked in future I think, maybe mods can fix that.

Very interested to see if Game 3 will re-shape the map further or simply tack on parts to this one.

Just looks like someone squashed the left side of the map in it so distorted. Really horrible looking map for a Warhammer fan. Also utterly disappointing that they didn't move any of the original Lords to more interesting locations, it's not like the community has been asking for it since the release of game 1 or anything.

Was really looking forward to this from the original announcement but now not sure if I'll do anything more than a single Queek campaign on it.

Certain people have been hyping themselves up to have an internet meltdown once the map was released for the better part of 12 months.

faction unlocker + 100

This is very bad, so many regions where to play or to expand, so many races, so many legendary lords to choose and there is still content to come, and the worst I can conquer the old world with High Elves and show to the Empire who are the real empire, very bad...

Harconn

I will start with Tyrion. He's in the middle of the map and can do nearly anything.

seems like DE will just get massive every game with nobody to contest them. I think an order lord should start up there like Gelt or a dwarf, or one of the Bretonnia factions. Maybe even Orion but have him start out with a friendly status that slowly starts to deteriorate.

Some of their lands were cut but I think a lot more should have been and kept more of the Southlands in instead. There are like 10 offbrand DE factions plus Morathi so it will be boring to play as a DE faction as well when you start out. They could also shrink Naggaroth even more by having Morathi start somewhere else, maybe in Lustria somewhere, which would give more variety to High elves who also have a lot of real estate compared to the wood elves for example.

They should have lowered the top of the map to cover most of Naggaroth and a little of Ulthuan as well to encourage clashes of civilizations.

i hopefully if they want some more lords for the old races they can put them in the new world to make it all alittle more contest so some ai wont have an easy time to get strong.

Is the campaign map editable in size and scale by modders or is that locked?

VincentNZ

I have still a couple of questions though.

What about quests? Will you still get the quests for your legendary artifacts along with the battles, or will they just unlock or be obtained by simpler missions with no battles?

Will all game mechanics form WH1 and 2 be carried over? So Influence, Slaves, Monster Hunts etc..

Maybe DE will get heavy Chaos Invasion.

TyrionLamperouge

Most southlands are not in the map.
So it seems no new position for LL like Ungrim and Azhag maybe we will see them as a breand new feature for game 3 mega map that clearly it wont be the datamined (just 99.99% accuracy).
In these 2 years C.A. never disappoint.

Can't wait to conquer the pyramid of nagash as dwarf.
Having a Runelord with his mount + Pyramid, my dwarf army will a standard magic resist of 50% ^.^

For fixing the DE issue (or any part of the map without much opposition, the cool way would be to have the most resources being in the hotly contested zones. If one heartland province is worth 2 of the less dense areas it could work.

The 10 slots capitals, specific buildings and income resources are already providing this in parts, but it may not be enough. Still places like Marienburg are worth fighting for.

So is Skavenblight a occupiable city/Provence because I don't see it's name where it should be?
