Could the new Legendary Lord for Empire be Wissenland's Elector Countess Emmanuelle?

[samyouwell0000]

She could be either DLC or FLC, doesn't really matter. Toddy should be made available first, of course. But as it stands, the Empire is currently the only order faction apart from Lizardmen without a girl in the LL roster. Her faction bonuses could be economy related since in-lore, she's stated to be very rich, while her army bonuses will of course be buffs for artillery (GUNS OF NULN!).

End Times don't count. Also, how did she get the Norscans to attack Ulthuan again?

At least Morathi's whoring achieves something, while Emanuelle's does literally nothing, of any military value.

There is close to zero chance of this.

Those Norscans didn't achieve much tho :D

I'm not being serious btw, just saying that her antics are pretty common in warhammer.

The issue that Liebwitz is a joke character, that is there as a jab to the lofty nobility, and not an actual player in the Warhammer world. She literally does nothing of any worth, and instead it is Elspeth that defends Nuln on the battlefield.

it's worth noting that Emmanuelle von Liebwitz, the Elector Countess of Wissenland, is a significant character in the Warhammer Fantasy lore. She has been featured in various novels and source books, and her inclusion as a legendary lord in Warhammer 3 is certainly a possibility. The decision to introduce specific characters as legendary lords is often influenced by fan demand, the narrative direction of the game, and the desire to represent diverse regions and factions within the Warhammer world.

The fundamental problem is that she has no role on the battlefield that we know of. And if it is a Nuln LL, as it looks likely, it will likely be either Elspeth or Bruckner for the reasons others have ably articulated here and elsewhere.

It just feels like the OP did not really have a good grasp of Empire or Wissenland lore and just saw somewhere that Emmanuelle is an elector count of Wissenland and just automatically assumed she should lead Wissenland on the battlefield.

Most considered her barely competent in her position. The saying went, "the Countess' head is as empty as her manifesto." Still, the people loved her. In her middle years, she retained her youthful beauty and many lords clamoured for her hand, hoping to gain something of her considerable power.

For two years, dr. Hartlieb Schneider has been hiding from the Countess. The tincture he prescribed her failed to settle her bowels. Instead it gave her chronic flatulence, which almost caused a diplomatic incident during talks with a Tilean ambassador. The good doctor now has a price of 2,000 silver coins on his head.

Then she has my vote. If they add another empire fation they need to do something similar to Volkmar where there are no electoral counts mechanics involved. And ideally a unique start location

What is it with you silly peeps and insisting that every Empire LL needs to start somewhere that isn’t the Empire of Man?

HALF of the Empire’s LLs are already outside of the Empire, and only one of them has a decent excuse, I’d prefer LLs of the Empire of Man to be IN the Empire of Man, tanks chu bery much.

Is there honestly anything preventing the devs from just going and making up LL's?

They'd have to clear it with GW, but considering that GW approved that weird ghost lady, I don't think it would be that difficult for CA to do.

Like Cylostra? No, no there is not as long as GW approves.

Only empire units i've seen devs mention lately are halflings in their post and videos. food for thought.

[Amereth]

If the goal is to have a woman character for the empire.

We already have a decent mod adding Elspeth. Don't think we need her.

They could maybe add Ottilia the first and create somekind of rebellion within the empire since she think she deserve to be empress.

Jana Eberhaur could be interesting for middenheim. She isn't really elector count material though...

Salundra Von Drakenburg could be a nice legendary hero.


but i doubt we will receive a woman in the next dlc.

i expect something like Luthor Huss and Ludwing as a legendary hero for franz.
