What Factions are left to add?

Fishmen (could potentially be added to Khuresh roster if they're willing to play a bit fast and loose with lore)
Halflings
Araby
Amazons
Southern Realms/Dogs of War
Hung/Kurgan (could easily be merged into one race pack. Basically Warhammer Mongols)

That's everything that could possibly make sense as factions in my opinion, and many of these are super weak. My honest list of 'what would sell' looks more like:

Chaos Dwarves
Ogre Kingdoms
Nippon
Ind
Khuresh
Araby*
Southern Realms/Dogs of War*

*Weak candidates for being on the WH2 map

Nagash seems to me to be just a mix of Vampire Counts and Tomb Kings rosters, like Arkhan the Black but with more VC units. While I think we have a good chance of getting him in a lord pack (maybe as a Tomb Kings lord) I just can't see him making sense as a race pack. Same for Neferata, Thanquol, etc. I think we'll get them, but as lord packs rather than race packs.

aside from making new stuff, that really is it isnt it? Even that list could be compacted, Like Chaos Dwarves, and Hobgolbins, ya I guess say Khanate is independent but in actuality...they're slaves of Chaos Dwarves xD

Hung/Kurgan just be two main factions of new "Norsca" culture too

Nagash, and Silver Pinacle will just be counts too judging by pre-existing themes of structures added for those potential factions to join in.

Nippon and Amazons!

So there can be WARHAMMER 4?
Gnarl Feb 5, 2021 @ 9:32am 
Ind the empire in what we know as India, but it would need GW to help with rules for it just like Grand Cathay.

No. But the plan was a trilogy over the span of 10 years, we're entering game 3 and halfway through the 10 years

Replace amazons and pygmies with Ind and Kuresh.
Araby is a distant possibility if they decide to make DLCs specific for the combined map. Along with Southern Realms/Dogs of War
If we're getting Cathay now, it's likely we're including the whole of Grand Cathay, with easy expansion over to Nippon and later Kuresh. And that's the whole world.

why not have them too as DLCs? dang thats like 12 factions left


1 Chaos Dwarfs, 2 Ogre Kingdooms, 3 The Kurgan, 4 The Hung, 5 Hobgoblin Khanate, 6 Nagash, 7 Silver Pinacle, 8 Nippon ,9 Amazons , 10 Pygmies, 11 Ind and 12 Kuresh.


so each one later for 15 Euros?

Amazonians and Pygmies would have only place in game 2, there are none in the Darklands or the Far East.

If we never got them until now, they are not coming, same as Halflings and Gnomes.

But we do have the "grand campaign", why not there?

Silver Pinnacle is just a branch of Vampire Counts, Kurgan and Hung are basically the same as Norsca except on land, Amazons and Gnomes and Pygmies would not be viable as independent races, and the Khanate really is just a spin on the Greenskins. Halflings could only appear as a few units for the Empire or Ogres.

I suspect one or the other of Chaos Dwarves and Ogre Kingdoms will be the preorder race, and the other will drop shortly after. Nippon is apt to be an auxiliary to Cathay proper, with a few unique units available from its island landmarks. Ind and Khuresh need just as much work as Cathay to make viable as independent races, so probably we'll see the same thing as with Nippon.

Nagash is the only real "What the hell could happen here" sort of thing. Since his dominion was intended to stretch across all undead - Vampire Counts and Tomb Kings alike.

Basically, everything that is not already a major race will need nearly as much work as Cathay, Tomb Kings, or Vampire Coast to make into an independent race. Therefore, it will not appear as such for the most part. CA and GW are not THAT dedicated.

Because they are not game 3 factions, and like game 2 never had any DLC that was not for the Vortex map, game 3 will likely never have any DLC that is not for the Darklands map.

Amazonians, Araby and Pygmies time is gone, they will never get in.
