Total War: Warhammer 2

Got bored of the first one quickly, will give this a miss. Shame they are making too much money off these to make any of the historical TWs. I would love Medieval 3.
 
Yeh they have a team dedicated to working on a new historical game. I think i'd like an Alexander The Great game or a Medieval 3!

I've put approx 120 hours into TW:Warhammer so I've pre-ordered the new one.
 
New warhammer 2 campaign map.

So as someone not familiar with WH lore, what will the Skaven bring to a) the campaign map, and b) the real time battles?

Underground cities/tunnels, experimental Warpfire weapons and machines, high leadership in large numbers, inter-clan politics (Clan Eshin - Assassins, Clan Skryre - magic and machines, Clan Moulder - rat monsters, Clan Pestilens - plague monks).

This is what I am waiting for. I assume it will come after they release number 3 though? And then sell like a GOY edition style maybe?

I have the first one which is just full of stuff i havent yet experienced. Im not sure about when the whole map is being made available yet but i have plenty of content to go through for the moment. I find its best to get games a year after release anyway as the bugs are ironed out and you get some great deals.

I simply cannot wait to build up my forces, taking over my own continent and then sailing across the sea to new horizons and new lands to conquer.
 
This actually looks really good. Although the concept of RT2 and Shogun 2 I liked, I actually didnt really enjoy the game much.

Is this any better? I think the fantasy theme is a a lot more interesting than the bland Shogun 2.

One of the problems I had was being totally lost on the campaign management map.

The difference you will find with having TWW2 is that what is added is very unique, what was added to RT2 u S2 is that they built on something you already had and so felt flat in comparison as they did not improve/add enough variation etc to what you previously had.

Now I am going from the fact that TWW2 is unique to 1 based on the fact I used to collect those little plastic models and know the factions out of the TW universe but it would be very difficult to make factions that are so unique feel bland and not add to the previous in a positive way.
 
I did enjoy Total Warhammer 1..I got very annoyed at the repeated DLCs though (especially the blood one...paying to have the ability to show blood in a Total Warhammer game?!) , I'm interested in Warhammer 2 but the thing I am most interested in is the combined map so I will wait until that is available before I press the buy button.

28th September is release date. The combined map will come later at some point.

Yes the DLC release are awful, (way to go CA & Sega) and it is why I haven't brought into it. I am waiting for the full edition in 3 years or so once Warhammer 3 comes out. And that is because I am sure I can purchase it all at once for £40 or so with all the DLC's included and the super map.
