I watched his videos. He is very pessimistic about us getting any of the new dinos and thinks we'll be only getting bastiladon versions like the Engine, ripperdactyls and venerable kroxigors and other easy to recycle assets units. I'm inclined to believe him, because he was very sure of himself when we had the 4 silhouettes of the vampire coast lords, calling the 4th one to be a surprise and not exactly from the lore the day they were on the total war academy page. I believe he may have some connections at inner design works with CA. Also he seemed very upset with how people dismiss Nakai as a possible FLC lord option
He seems to think we will get Salamanders and the Arch of Sotek despite him admitting it's a hard model. A few Youtubers got the VC correct, however he was completely shocked about the units, he even says he hates guessing units due to a number of CA curve balls.
Ah this is pretty good, I've never seen anyone have a detailed look into the LM.
From what he describes of the Ripperdactyls.. they seem pretty elite, I wonder if they should be a single RoR.
Nope! If CA goes to the extent of making an entirely new model and unit just to make an RoR, then they might as well include it as a unit anyway, especially every single Ripperdactly rider isn't a RoR.
Well they did it for the HE unit/RoR, that was pretty unique. The way he describes them they seem a little OP to be a normal unit. Very AP, hit infantry and cavalry hard, Frenzy etc.
They were a normal unit on the TT.
Given we have Dragons I don't see the problem with Ripperdactyls. At worst put them at T4.

Only Salamander and Ark of Sotek!? I guess he has some connection with the Reddit guy who "datamined" the Lizardmen units ( **** EoG and Red Skinks). Well, if the DLC will end in this way i'm done with WH2. I didn't buy Q&C for the poor amount (and cheap) of units, but this is just pure s**t. Horrible lazy s**t. Lucky me i have still Metro Exodus, Sekiro and DMC5.
If this is true i hope CA has a plan B against an overwhelming s**tstorm of review bombs and negative feedbacks.

That didn't really happen for QatC so not sure why it would happen here either. None of the lord packs have been heavy on hard to make and animate units so expecting that isn't a good idea. Sure, we all want the remaining weapons teams and large dinos from LM. Maybe CA will do that, but their history suggests they won't. Most of the past lords pack units have been either humanoid or very similar to existing units. The only unit I can think of that was outside that was squigs, but that's just one unit. Certainly not 6-8 units. I really want all of the remaining stuff, but no way am I expecting anything close.
SiWI: "no they just hate you and I don't blame them."

Then this DLC will be a flop. Look at the communities, everyone are expecting at very least Salamander, Razordon, Ripperdactyls, Skink Oracle w/ Troglodon, Jezzails, Ratlings, Giant Rats, Verminlord. Look at Reddit, Gosh! And now what? Ark of Sotek, the 4th **** Bastiladon + maybe Salamander or the 5th **** Stegadon...after more than 1 year of waiting. I don't know what is gonna happen but i'm sure people will not be happy with it. ****, CA is lucky if the review bombs will be only on Reddit and Steam. Also 6 units is impossible?! So CA are also liars. Remember the female generals s**tstorm in Rome 2? Get ready because this is gonna be worse.

I never said 6 units is impossible. I said that the prior lord packs, at most, only had 1 unit that required completely new skeletons and animations: squigs. I said that no other lord packs had 6-8 units of fully new units; that most have been reskins or small changes of existing units. Never said 6 units is impossible, or ever even used the word impossible. I think that's even likely considering on reddit they said they'd focus more on units. I just think it isn't likely we're going to get 6-8 units that are completely, wholesale new assets simply because no other lords pack has even come close to that. The prior record for a completely new unit? One, squigs. All other units were either humanoid or variations on existing units.

My bad about the 6 completely new units. Still getting just Salamander and another **** useless Bastiladon, the 4th of the game, is unforgivable.
Basically the 4Chan dude, Sotek and Reddit guy predicted the same **** scenario. Only the 4Chan dude generated a rant storm on Reddit and here. I hope CA is not trying to kill the game or something...

You're getting upset about units in the LP DLC when we don't know what the units are. You're way too early.
When it comes we'll know, going from history most people will be happy, and some won't be. Until we know what's in it there's no point getting upset over it.

I just hope they learned from Q&C; no mystery units.
You make a valid point, but we'll see what we see. Given that Ripperdactyls and Trogs were sold in the same pack as units we already have, and the similarity between Salamanders and Razordons I'm quite optimistic we'll get some good stuff.

I'm trying to be optimistic too. And yes, they should never pull that fiasco with QatC again. You should never sell something to someone and tell them they won't get to find out what it is until after it's been released. That was completely messed up and one of the most egregious things they've ever done.
That said, I'm actually pretty confident we'll get a good dose of new units for this LP, but I still think people have to temper expectations. I think we'll get jezzails and ratling guns. Vampire Coast Deck Gunners already laid the template for the ratling guns so I think both of those are a shoe in. Ripperdactyls and troglodon would both be changes to existing unit bases so not too hard there and easy wins (though I will say, I doubt the troglodon. I just don't think it has a niche that needs filling, but I hope it comes). Then comes the bigger questions. I think that if CA is doing the salamander it makes little sense to not do the razordon as well. Either on release or later as a Bone Giant style unit. It'd use the same skeleton and some of the same animations so if they are already putting in that work the most efficient thing is to maximize that cost.
So, I think we'll see jezzails, ratling guns, and giant rats for sure. I don't know if we'll see a 4th unit that wouldn't be just a minor change. So don't know if we'll be lucky enough to get the doomflayer or poison wind mortars. We'll see. As for LM, I think we'll see ripperdactyls and red crested skinks (though the whole, "If they do RCS then that means they cut out salamanders!!!" is completely false. There's not an equivalency there. RCS are an easy bonus, not getting them would be weirder), but they could be a Tehenhauin only unit like Alith Anar had, or a special ROR that he can have multiples of. Not sure there. I think there's a good chance we might get razordons and salamanders too. But even to me, that all seems very optimistic and "expecting" that is folly. It's just what I hope for as a reasonable outcome. And number of units matters less to me than their quality. I'd rather get salamanders than three saurus variations.
SiWI: "no they just hate you and I don't blame them."
If anybody is interested in the rules/items for Nakai that Loremaster of Sotek mentioned in his most recent video as having appeared in an old White Dwarf issue as part of the promotion for a mid 2000s event, I believe these are them.
it would be actually great if you could write down what you want to discuss.... watching a 2 hrs video just to know whats the point of your discussion is...well ... unecessary
It is all about wacthing the video.
@davedave1124 Thanks for posting, wanted to do this myself.

If it's all about the video then this should be in community content. If the point is to discuss the topic then it's not unreasonable to expect to not need to watch the video.

reading the whole "optimistic, pessimistic" stuff reminds me of a joke...
The pessimist sees the tunnel. The Optimist sees the light at the end of the tunnel. The Realist sees the train entering the tunnel. The train driver sees 3 idiots on the rails.
The Empire still hasn't gotten their FLC LL. We need Marius Leitdorf of Averland!
Where is Boris Todbringer? Have you seen him? For a Middenland DLC with Boris and the Ar-Ulric!
Every wrong is recorded. Every slight against us, page after page, ETCHED IN BLOOD!
Queek could smell their hatred, ratcheted to a degree that even he could not evoke in their simple hearts. He stepped over the old orange-fur’s body, eager to see for himself what it was they saw. But he heard it first. 'Waaaaaaaggh! Gorfang!'
