Another Trailer Hint to Next DLC???

TheWattman#7460

So since CA actually hinted towards Warden & the Paunch back in the Shadow & the Blade trailer, I thought I would scan the trailer of Warden & the Paunch to see if they did something similar here. After doing so, my immediate impression is no, nothing concrete. But there was ONE thing that caught my eye...

WHO IS THE CO-CAPTIVE OF THE LAUGHING GOBLIN?




Besides this, the trailer has no hints of what I can find, so this is the only thing we can go on. I did a brightness enhancement, as you can see, of the co-captive of the laughing goblin, which is visible at 0:33-0:34 in the trailer. Now, this can mean many things of course, but it makes you wonder, doesn't it?

My guess is that its a Skink Chief, with some sort of mask on. It doesn't look like another Goblin to me and it does seem surprised and/or scared at the Goblin's maniacle laughter. Almost like it got woken up or something. Now, this could mean nothing, or everything...

In my mind, it can mean two things. Either a hint towards the DLC after Warden & Paunch OR a hint towards the coming new mount that will be available at TW Access. Let me share both alternatives:

1. Hint towards next DLC:
Okay so hint towards next DLC... well assuming its a Skink, that would indicate Lizardmen. Then again, they've already had 2 DLCs, in a row no less so that might be a bit reaching, but its here isn't it? So therefore, this leads me to conclude that this is a hint towards a DLC that will add Tetto'eko and Tlaxtlan. A Skink for the most revered Skink in Lizard history, right?

2. Hint towards new Access mount:
Again, assuming this is a Skink, then there can only be ONE option here for the mount. Its the TROGLODON. The only missing unit for the Lizardmen. Instead of adding it in a DLC or FLC, CA is just giving it to us directly in order to complete the Lizardmen. Another mount for the in-game Skink Priests.
EDIT: This theory has been quickly disproven, ignore this one please

What do you think guys? Is there any merit to this or am I seeing things that aren't things?

One of Eltharion's mechanics is capturing enemy Lords/Heros. This is probably just another prisoner to be interegated. I highly doubt they'd another Lizardmen DLC in game II considering Game III is ripe for that Oxyotl/Tetto'eko VS Daemon conflict.
Also the mount is the Spider Shrine

The new mount is an Arachnarok.

1) Troglodon is not a mount.
2) FLC mount is arachnarok.

Okay so mount is Arachnarok, that's what I get for not checking my email lol. Well ignore that then. That eliminates the mount theory and yes I know Eltharion takes prisoners, but then again, it could mean something.

The new mount is a the spider mount for the goblin shaman. But apart from that maybe, but I think the lizardmen are looking really good right now.

Tbh when I saw that my mind went immediately to fish men, but I know that not happening

Same thing - fish men 😂

I think there is one more planned iirc. Can’t remember the source for that. But Total War Warhammer 3 is at least a year out still. My best guess is it will come out September-October 2021.

As others have pointed out.. the new mount has already been confirmed.

However, the troglodon could be for the skull throne event.

* if the arachnarok mount is indeed separate content from the skull throne event.

Looks like a figure laying on there side shoulder plate and helmet/head in view I'm gonna go with Tullaris dreadbringer or possibly a vampire in red blood dragon armour

StarGazer#4874

I think that is a Dark Elf. They are lying on their side with the white being their hair and the wine purple being their shoulder. The darker blue/purple oval is probably an inset gem.

If this is a hint, it is probably in relation to the final Dark Elf Legendary Lord. Given that the individual is in a cage it may be referring to Beastllord Rakarth of Karond Kar, the elf and his goblin cell mate being the proverbial caged beasts.

This would give the Dark Elves the following Legendary Lord types: Sorceress (Morathi), Witch Elf (Hellebron), Dreadlord (Malus), Admiral (Lokhir), Beastmaster (Rakarth) and Hybrid Warrior-Mage (Malekith).

Very good catch OP.

You know, watching back the trailer in slow-mo does actually make me see this more than a Skink.

That's what it looks for me.

Timpeyo#7210

I hope it's Tullaris as his still one I really want to see and DE still might be getting one more, not sure who the DE rival race would be tho. Great spot tho

Yeah I would prefer Tullaris, if it is a Dark Elf, over Kouran Darkhand personally. I want the Herald of Khaine to replace the Witch King!

Made me immediately think to a skink with their typical kind of helmet.

But the body seems more ... humanoid ... and quite pale too.

I don't expect any more LM (at least within WH2). So it definitely could be a DE or some kind of Vampire with a helmet (avoiding him to speak maybe ? some kind of magic inhibitor, if such things exist in the WH world ?).

Yeah its easy to make that assumption first. For the sake of my plans for the game, Im going to say its a Dark Elf, hinting towards a Tullaris FLC, if this is a hint in the first place.
