14 DAY TRIAL // Creative Assembly has a solid plan that's been following since the release of Total War: Warhammer: to make SEGA rich. If you've bought the game, then you already know that Creative Assembly released a ton of paid DLCs that added new heroes, game mechanics and even … blood.
Well, SEGA is following the same recipe for Total War: Warhammer II, so it's no wonder that the game already has four paid DLCs available and six more that are free. The fifth paid DLC for Total War: Warhammer II is called The Hunter & The Beast and is scheduled for release on September 11.
Just like many of the other DLCs, its adds two new Legendary Lords who lead their own factions: Markus Wulfhart leads the Huntsmarshal’s Expedition (Empire), and Nakai The Wanderer leads the Spirit of the Jungle. Naturally, each Legendary Lord brings their own unique faction mechanics, quest-chains, legendary items, skill-trees, and campaign narrative.
On the one hand, we have the Huntsmarshal's Expedition that has devastating new ranged units, mobile gunpowder batteries, and fabled Hunter Heroes. The other faction brings towering new Dread Saurians, the largest beasts to walk the world of Total War: Warhammer, plus new Kroxigors, Razordons, and Rites to the game.
If you're a sucker for Warhammer lore, here is some information about the two heroes joining the Total War: Warhammer II roster:
"In battle, Wulfhart is a ranged combatant with a powerful armor-piercing bow which deals bonus damage to large targets. Coupled with Vanguard Deployment, Stalk, a 360-degree fire-arc and immune to psychology, he has a well-deserved reputation as the ultimate monster hunter.
With high armor, health, melee attack, and weapon strength, Nakai is a powerful brawler, well-suited to extended melee. He also grants bonus melee defense to, and reduces the recruitment and upkeep costs, of Kroxigors and Sacred Kroxigors in his army. Nakai also has many new support abilities in battle, further cementing his role as the centerpiece of battle."
Last but not least, those who buy the upcoming DLC will be able to unlock, recruit and deploy new Regiments of Renown. Both Legendary Lords and their factions can be used in campaigns as well as custom and multiplayer battles.
