Tomb kings update

[Jujicof]

Will tomb kings ever get any love, i feel like their roster is very old and is missing units that most other factions have as in types of units. I don't think this is about faction aesthetic anymore as much as its just a fact that every other faction just got so many unit roster updates, while TK just didn't. Tomb kings feel like just one old DLC that got added and never worked on, i know there where balance patches but that's just not it : l, does anyone think they will give TK any love in the future or can i just regret getting the DLC?

it would be so much better if devs revisited this one faction, i think this is the only faction that hasn't gotten any new units or lords in a really long while unlike other factions. I don't get why you got so mad about it : /

Because this one faction is special in that YOU like it..
Every kid out there want's them to add something to just this "one" faction because that would be better..
They should add this lord, because that's what I want.
They should do this because that's what I want.

Maybe it is not just about you, or what you want, as mentioned above it's a fairly complete roster, and your problem seems to be that they gave it all in 1 go (apart from the BG).

The tech tree needs to be fixed. IT is incoherent and nothing in each tree has any direction.

The real secret is that you just research the dynasties for those +1 army unlocks.

Maybe the cheapest Hero capacity and the unique Lord as well if he's actually better than a generic Lord.

But yeah, every turn spent on researching those unit improvements is a turn spent not researching the army capacity upgrades.

You don't need that much army capacity, thou, if you are microing chartiots like madma...

Considering how critical this game is to CA's finances at this point, there probably will be a TK LL added eventually. Could be on the tail end of the lifecycle though.

Yeah but that still doesn't mean the tech trees can't be cleaned up and have some semblance of direction vs the spaghetti tossed arrangement it is now.

It's not missing any units.

Yes, it is. It's lacking bone giants with swords / dual-weapons, for which there are already tabletop models and artwork:

It's also lacking the Khemric Titan: https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/warhammerfb/images/2/21/Khemric_Titan.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/1000?cb=20170722150133
...As well as a few legendary lords and heroes, such as Tutankhanut, Apophas, and Sehenesmet.

Don't you forget the reader of titles, Nekaph.

[Solarfried]

Tutankhanut with a Numas faction and support from his scythan followers would be great...

Prince Apophas could be a legendary hero for him...

The prince is already in TK:E iirc

[Human bean]

The roster being old and dusty is par for the course for the Tomb Kings :P

Probably a whole lot worse than the people working on TK:E. Let us hope they never actually try to.

I'd love to see CA take another look at Tomb Kings and their versions of Prince Apophas, the Khemric Titan and more.

Faction identity is the trick they really missed though in the DLC, and what I hope they'd expand upon in any further additions, and is what is what I was aiming for in TK:E. A Khemri save being identifiably different than a Lybaras run, and different than Exiles through either troops, characters, mechanics, buildings or abilities that they have would be nice. Arkhan has always been the only Tomb King who has stood apart from the rest due to his (highly limited) access to some Vampire Counts - the vanilla versions of the factions of Khemri, Lybaras and Exiles have so much potential for separate identities which has gone unexplored.

The High Priest himself graces us. I for one would welcome a tech tree overhaul that plays into the faction's unique identity and a unique look for each of the units depending on their faction like drycha has for the welfs.

If I were a betting man, I'd say a major DLC aimed and all the undead factions and possibly adding a Nagash "race" that would be like united chaos but for undead is coming. Id guess that would be the second to last DLC we get for this game.

[Chiller]

Kings of the Tombs need 1 DLC w/ :

LL: Nagash (4e Ogre mummy)
LH: Apophas
L: Liche Lord , malevolent Liche Lord (Nagash's version)
H: Tomb Herald (Support character)
Unit#1: Khemric Titan
Unit#2: melee Bone Giant
Unit#3: Bone Thrower
Unit#4: Tomb Barge (mount option too)
Unit#5: Mummies
Two new Lores: Lore of Undeath & Lore of the Scarabs
