I may be the only one glad this is Warhammer and not 40K. Lore wise 40K all day, but when I'm playing a video game I want to see units smashing into each other, old skool magic and dragons etc. Not ranged, skirmish based combat. Back in the day, and this is going way back, Warhammer peed all over 40K gameplay wise. Things may have changed over the years, but I still prefer massed ranks of fantasy creatures duking it our with clubs and axes. This marries perfectly with Total War - more than 40K could. imho of course.

I'd love a really good rules-hugging version of Necromunda.
Hell, even a mod using the Xcom engine could work.

Will buy this, instant purchase. Maybe even collectors edition.
If you like Necromunda, keep an eye on Mordheim on steam. I can imagine the producers of that will do Necromunda in the future.

Have you never seen the state of pretty much every Creative Assembly/Total War game for about the first six months after release?

I don't get the CA hate on here. Okay, some of their releases have been buggy, but I had little to no problems with Total War Attila, so maybe they've started to get on top of their issues with bugs. Plus, for the amount of play time I get from their games, I can forgive a few bugs here and there. I've never had the game-breaking issues that people seem to complain about.

Great news! Think of the mods, people!!
Soldato
No!
The only reason I'm psyched about this is because it's Warhammer. I loved the original 40k and the DOW series and still play them now!

There any news on a potential release date or anything?
Soldato
Of course.
The other races will be playable at the discount price of £9.99 a few months after release every so often.
(I'm laughable because I'll most likely pay it).
I'm looking forward to this one, I did a huge amount of modding for Rome 2 on the steam workshop (got about 40 units into the main Radious mod) but for Attila I'm taking a break.
I'd most certainly get back into modding for a Warhammer total war game, will have to brush up on my photoshop/texturing/mapping skills once we get a release date.

That whole card trait thing in Rome 2 totally ruined the game for me. I hate it.

Atilla is much better, its everything Rome2 should have been.
I reckon after the whole Rome2 experience CA/Sega have eaten some humble pie. I cant see them risking a new lucrative IP with GamesWorkshop by repeating the whole thing a 2nd time.
