What if the new Hero FLC was legendary

master_phen_x#3872

About the FLC hero we will get with next patch, CA used the words :
-Awesome New Hero
-New Hero Character

To me it could mean a new legendary hero, just like Kroak is.

We know this hero will be for Game 2 Core race ( + possibly bretonnia)

Do you know an other legendary hero who would fill that slot ? (similar to Kroak)
Do skaven, HE, DE, or Bretonnia have lore wise a legendary hero of that caliber ?
What about lizardmen ?

I have heard a lot of people talk about Shadowblade for DE, but since he is already a protagonist in DE Vortex campaign (with Felicion) i don´t think it could be him,

What do you think ?

I don't think its LH, but if its most likely it will be DE shadowblade.

If it is LH then Aenur, the Sword of Twilight would make sense. He can serve both HE and WE.

Good man! This has been my hope. But he should be recruited from Mordheim available to all Order factions or a select few. Name ties in with Twilight theme if we are getting the sisters and also he could give bonuses to hunting Skaven so really is thematic if rivals of LP are Skaven. I’d like him available to WE, HE, Empire and Bretonnia at least. He would give diplomatic relations to WE and HE races for the race who hires him.

I'd love Shadowblade.

Or Tullaris.

I feel they would've pointed if it was a Legendary Hero for the hype.

Question!

Should every race have their own Legendary hero variant? There’s the Green knight and Lord Kroak already In game, but what if there was a shadowblade as well as Aenur

Food for thought

Bloodydagger#9716

Borgut Facebeater too.

Neodeinos#5871

If it was a LH they would have specified it just like they did with Kroak.

But I'd like Shadowblade.

Mad_D0c_#1516

Shadowblade would be far better as LH Kroak style than LL.

regarding his role in the narrative, wouldnt LH fit more than LL?

PhoenixKingMalekith#5710

Shadowblade.

Skweel Gnawtooth.

Tullaris is DLC LL material.

Timpeyo#7210

I think shadowblade would still have a good chance I don't think being part off the vortex story really matters, I don't see why it would?

For WE Ariel would still be my guess as she a godly type entity who could have unique spell off her very own similar to Kroak, skaven I'm unsure, possabily Thanquol tho that may make alot off ppl unhappy I wouldn't mind.

LM I think Kroak is enough

RikRiorik#9890

Cypher.

Game needs some cross over.

I think of he was a LL it would be awkward for the vortex but as a LH that can show up anywhere it would work absolutely fine. I think theres a good chance it is him - and that would probably be an acceptable replacement for a 6th DE LL in my mind.

Alright, I´ll jump in on this one. And since our beloved Empire still hasn´t been blessed with a free LL, a free LH will have to do. Give me Schwarzhelm.

It's going to be a core Warhammer 2 race I'm afraid; has to be a piece of content that you could install on a completely vanilla copy of Warhammer 2 (so no other DLC or FLC installed).

So only options are Skaven, DE, HE & LM unless this is a first.

Labria#2848

I doubt free hero will be legendary hero. After all, we all know that CA is not big fan of legendary heroes. Most of them legendary heroes from tabletop are legendary lords in the game.

If CA really planned to add Shadowblade as just legendary hero. I think he would be a part of free content for the Shadow and the Blade lord pack.

I wouldn't be surprised if Shadowblade will be legendary lord with own unique mechanics in the future like Deathmaster Snikch.

It's probably just Nagash with specific mechanics like Kroak. I imagine that he would complement the Vampire Coast roster nicely

„nO mOrE UnDEAd PlEaSe!“
Nagash should just be a summon like Krell Or a spell like Vangheist. /s

I so badly want Ludwig Schwarzhelm added too.
