The most likely partner for Malekith is his own mother, Morathi, a powerful sorceress and first of the Hag-Queens.Īs for the Skaven, there’s little to do other than speculate as to who their Legendary Lords will be. It was Malekith’s attempted ascension to the throne that divided the High Elves and Dark Elves, kicking off a centuries long civil war. The only confirmed Legendary Lord for the Dark Elves is Malekith, Witch-King of Naggaroth and direct heir of the last Phoenix King. The two lords together balance magical strength and physical might, and will surely be a challenge to any elven invaders. Acting under him, as the military arm of the Lizardmen, is Kroq-Gar, a Saurus leader who charges into battle atop a powerful Carnosaur. The Lizardmen will be led by their most powerful living Slann Mage-Priest, the venerable Mazdamundi, who guides his cold blooded charges towards fulfilling the Old Ones’ desires.
The trailer also featured Tyrion’s brother, Teclis, High Loremaster for the Elves of Ulthuan and their greatest living battle mage, who starts his campaign in a unique position in the Eastern portion of Lustria. The trailer started with presenting Prince Tyrion, Lord of Ulthuan, and contender for the Phoenix Crown. The look at the campaign map also tipped us off to several of the Legendary Lords that players can take control of upon release. Malekith, Witch-King of Naggaroth, the faction leader of the Dark Elves.
With three months until the game’s release we’ll probably be receiving more trailers and information, and, if the lore is anything to go by, the Skaven are always swarming just out of sight, waiting for when you least suspect it to emerge and strike. Whether or not this statement is a veiled attempt to confirm the rat-men’s presence in the game remains to be seen. They stated that the army rosters have yet to be “ratified,” drawing attention to the word with quotation marks. Skaven are popularly believed to be the fourth faction, and while we still haven’t seen any trailers or announcements for them, a member of the development team did release an interesting statement on Reddit. Still no word on the fourth faction of Warhammer 2, which is strange given that all four factions of the original were announced in the game’s initial trailer. In game events for the first Total War Warhammer have mentioned the Black Ships, so Little has been said about the Dark Elves, although the campaign map trailer did feature large ships floating around the coastline that may have been their infamous Black Arks. If other factions wait too long to delve into the depths of the Lustrian jungle they might find these minor factions slaughtered, their bones crushed under the tread of scaly war beasts. While this may present some initial challenges to forces seeking to conduct an organized invasion, the Lizardmen live to protect their hidden Temple-Cities. Lustria is looking like it will be a fairly chaotic land, with a number of Old World factions huddling at its coast, as well as being filled with natural threats and foreign bands of treasure seekers. At its center is the raging vortex, however, and that will no doubt draw races both old and new to the fertile continent, all eager to show up what the Orc’s colorfully refer to as the “knife-eared ponces.” Ulthuan lives up to its reputation as a beautiful and serene land, filled with rainbows and fertile valleys. The recent first look at the game’s campaign map heavily featured the continents of Ulthuan and Lustria, homes of the High Elves and Lizardmen respectively. It’s commonly been accepted that the Skaven will be Warhammer 2’s last faction, but no official confirmation has been released. Fans have speculated that there will indeed be a preorder race, with the Tomb Kings of the Southlands being an obvious choice, though, as of now, this is just a rumor.

Whether or not there will be any preorder bonuses, such as when the previous game made Chaos Warriors available for free upon release for players who preordered it, remains to be seen. In the meantime, the game is already available for preorder at $59.99. There’s no exact date for when the map combining the two games will be released yet, but Creative Assembly did say that it will be up within a few weeks after Warhammer 2’s release, so it will most likely be in mid to late October. The game will go live September 28, 2017, meaning that players will get to start conquering the New World in about three months. Players can expect to gain access to the continents of the New World in the Fall of 2017.Īfter months of speculation, Creative Assembly has finally announced the release date for Total War Warhammer 2 on the game’s Steam page.
