The 4 LL are standard for WH2 and if this DLC is for WH2 then we should except this much.
No. Becasue the preorder DLC ranges in the under 10€ price tag, while your 4 LL game#2 race DLC cost double. So just cut it 50% back, aka 2 LLs at least

That’s why DoW should not be the preorder bonus. They have like +10 potential characters and should be a campaign pack.
Then we still have DoW and they have a huge roster, tons of LL and can be placed everywhere
That's another reason to make them either core or campaign pack faction.
I'm a big fan of DoW (see my avatar) and I even played them on TT. Yes I'd like them to be a core/campaign pack but really I would be happy if they came as a pre-order race pack. To be honest i'm worried they might not be coming at all at the moment so I'd take anything haha!
But still - yes they have a diverse roster but mostly its units we already have in some form. Okay Pikes could maybe use a unique animation set (maybe) but other then that it's largely re-branded versions of what we already have. There's a couple of new units that come to mind, galloper guns, birdmen, shielded crossbows (on human skeletons not elves) - but overall I really think you could make a damn good pack reusing mostly existing assets.
This is how I see it 2 (or maybe 3) LL.
Borgio Lucrezzia I'd go with Lupio for the 3rd (who's actually my favourite but can't see him replacing the big two above).
Unique Mechanics:
Faction Mission System (something similar to alith anar or the deathmaster). Regional Recruiting: As seen in the greenskin rework. Regiments of Renown: Should be important to the faction - maybe you can get multiple copies of each or just having a very large roster of them (I mean there are 3 or 4 different RoR pikes alone).
Roster would be mostly human units from tilea, aka pikes, crossbows, knights, light cannons etc. Then using the regional recruitment to add in the unique additions (dwarfs, orcs, ogres).
Could be a brilliant faction, built mostly from what we already have and with the advantages of regional recruitment ogres would show up upon their inclusion in game 3.
I don't mind if they are a settled faction or if they go a sort of land vampire coast route (with a travelling warcamp). Either works for me.

Possible yes but Kislev as the first line against Chaos fits better.
GW solely advertising Kislev at the moment is a big indicator that Kislev will be a core race.
NOBODY promised 4 LLs for a preorder race in the first place. And it does not make sense either, no matter what. Norsca had two, which was the custom then anyway WoC had three if we remember rigth and will probably get more in the far away future of game#3. But Beastmen already have stocked up to three thanks to FLC early, so Norsca could too. If wanted (which obviously so far CA does not).
That brings us to "best candidate is now Dogs of War". I agree here. And we have the Tilean New World Colonies around to drop one LL there. And then can still scatter the second around the map for Vortex. In ME we can even drop one of in the New World and keep one around Tilea itself. Future FLCs could then still add more, if needed/wanted.
Also keep in mind that the Vortex & Mortal Empire map had some upgrades already. It can be done again for example the flesh out the New Colony region or just find a place in the Lustria Thunderdome again. Or the flooded Southlands. God beware we drop LLs like Grom directly on the Ulthuan coast and disturb the fragile ecosystem for the endangered species there -.-

Your example of Throt vs Dwarfs + DE FLC ...there is no update ,rework ....so it would be wasted LP. Beastmen, WE still would need rework and you cannot fit both into one.
Last LP didn't have a rework either if i remember correctly. This would give CA enough time to make the rework for BM and WE.

At first it was campagne packs and race packs. campagne packs had a race and a mini campagne. The race pack had no mini campagne. In the second game they scrapt the mini campagne and added two extra Ll instead.
campagne packs: BM WE TK VC
Race packs: WC Norsca
Flc: Bretonnia
WC and Norsca was preorder so it is likely that the same goes for Warhammer 3, a race pack.

DoW should get 4-6 LLs. Making them the preorder bonus would be a waste of potential.
Their unit roster would be absolutely unique.
Oh I do agree - they have always been the dream of mine since game 1. I played them On TT, I also remember playing shadow of the horned rat when i was far too young and had no idea what I was doing (but still loving it).
If they gave me Morgan Bernhardt... then that will be such a childhood dream come to life... but I don't see it happening.
At this point I'd be happy just as long as DoW get in the series at some point.
Fit better as a pure good guy defending the old world against the horrors of chaos.
DoW are just mercs, I mean they are cool but they are not really good for an apocalyptic game about Chaos.
What would be more epic in your opinion?
Kislev: Defending the old world against the forces of chaos while trying to survive against endless hordes of monsters and Daemons. A very apocalyptic survival campaign like Western Rome in Attila.
DoW: Do mercenary stuff with a bunch of mercenaries. Money rules!

Thematically, Kislev seems to fit better as a core Order race than DoW and their location makes them ideally suited; however, they lack LLs. Now, that could change given the Old World work GW is now doing. I do see DoW in TWW3 though, but as a DLC race.
For pre-order, my view is Middenland/Cult of Ulric. Perfect size for a pre-order, CA have acknowledged the fans’ interest and their location isn’t too far from what the TWW3 map will be. So if they opted to put the pre-order on the playable TWW3 map and extended it a bit west, we could see them as support for a besieged Kislev. That would also have the benefit of giving the Empire a sub-faction with two more LLs.
Anyway, I’m sure I’ll be wrong, but that’s what I’m hoping for.
TEARS FOR THE SALT GOD !!! MODS FOR THE BUTHURT !!!

They have more than enough characters for LLs.
- Tzarina Katarin - Boris Ursun - Ulrica Magdova - Ivan Radinov - Baba Yaga
Just to name a few.
I agree that Cult of Ulric would be perfect for the preorder bonus.
Personally one outcome I don't see people discussing is *if* the pre-order is a race pack, it could be purely locked to ME. ME is currently locked to owners of WH1 and WH2. Say if DoW are the PO race pack, then this could open up ME to WH2 owners that don't have WH1 since they would be showing they are purchasing WH3 (aka two games in the series). This could make DoW a ME and Grand Campaign exclusive solving the issue of them not fitting on the Vortex map and not being near the Darklands (or assumed WH3 play area). Norsca isn't playable in the Vortex campaign either so we can assume if there is a race pack, then it won't be playable on the WH3 map outside of the Grand Campaign.
Also OP, I strongly disagree that there isn't many races left for race packs. There's six contenders for the core races in WH3 (with 4 of them looking the most probable):
-Ogre Kingdoms (100%) -Daemons of Chaos (100%) -Chaos Dwarves (90%, 10% chance could be a DLC curveball) -Kislev (90+ % and rising with every new piece of official content releasing with Old World TT) -Undead Legion (40% or so. Being pessimistic and assuming will be a TK LL but quite possible CA/GW makes a unique faction. If so, most likely DLC but could be a curveball core race) -Cathay (15% or lower. It's no secret that Cathay would need a lot of work from both GW and CA but honestly testing the audience for it in a video game is a much cheaper trial than creating TT models. China has also been a major focus for a lot of companies these days so I don't see why GW would be an exception)
There's also Grand Campaign only race packs that could get introduced for races like Southern Realms/DoW and even Araby if that gets put back on the table but that's for another conversation. With those 6 races above, we could see any combination of 4 for core and have the other 2 as DLC, especially with them being a mixture of Lawful, Neutral, Undead, and Chaos factions. For example:
1- Like WH1: 2 Lawful (Kislev, Cathay), 1 Neutral instead of Destructive (Orges instead of Greenskins), and 1 Undead (Undead Legion) with Daemons (like WoC in WH1) and Chaos Dwarves as DLC 2- Like WH2: 1 Lawful (Kislev), 1 Neutral instead of Lawful (Ogres instead of Lizardmen), 2 Chaos instead of 1 and 1 Destructive (Chaos of Daemons and Chaos Dwarves instead of Dark Elves) 3- Grimdark: 2 Chaos (Daemons and Chaos Dwarves), 1 Undead (Undead Legion), and 1 Neutral (Ogres) 4- Good vs Evil: 2 Lawful (Kislev and Cathay), 2 Chaos (Deamons and Chaos Dwarves) with Ogres and Undead Legion as DLC 5- Evil curveball (and least likely): 4 Monogods, Ogres and Chaos Dwarves as DLC 6- Lazy curveball: Daemons, Chaos Dwarves, Ogres, and some WH1/2 core races filling the last 2 LL spots
The point is, they have plenty of options if you consider the 8 races as potential factions or even the 6 if you rule out Araby and the low chance of Cathay. There's also a possibility that we won't see any DLC race packs for WH3 as there is still a huge list of potential units and LLs for the current 15 races, along with the 3 guaranteed races (DoC, CD, and OK), so who knows what direction they will end up going with. Personally going to keep my expectations low with option 2 but I am truly hoping we end up with all 6 races, despite the odds that the Undead Legion and Cathay have going against them.
