Khorne DLC?

[Puggly the Grey]

So, we now has all teh details fir SoC, and we has a basic idea of ToD, and we have strong evidence of teh dlc after dat bein’ Slaanesh based.

We eben has a few lore peeps dat has done a gud job susin’ out what teh other two factions fir dat dlc are most likely to be; two elven factions, though the exact combo is still unknown.

My question is dis, if a Khorne-themed dlc comes after teh Slaanesh one, what factions do chu peeps fink will be involved?

Personally, I fink it’ll either be Khorne/Norsca/Greenskins or Khorne/Norsca/Bretonnia. And if we haven’t already received Hotseat mode by the time dat teh Khorne dlc arrives, I assume the accompanying patch will finally add it.

I would ratehr get Karanak or Scylla, than Arbaal, then.

Arbaal is just another Chaos Warrior of Khorne, and I would rather the Daemons of Khorne, get lead by more aberrant LL choices.
We already got enough Warriors of Chaos LLs as it is.

Well, der is somefing we need to consider I fink. The bookmin on YouTube said dat 8th edition Khorne has no more generic characters left.

So, since CA has said dat all future dlcs are gonna has X amount of content, what if deh give us extra named characters to make up fir the lack of additional generic ones?

Jus imagine, we get Skulltaker in the slot dat normally goes to a Legendary Lord, den we get Mardaag in place of a generic lord, den we get Karanak in the normal LH slot, and we get Scylla as an extra legendary hero to make up fir the lack of an additional generic hero.

Den, finally, we get Arbaal as a flc lord.

Oh oh, and if CA decides to really lean into the blood theme, the other factions could be Norsca and Vampire Counts, wif Egil Styrbjorn as the Norscan LL, and either Aborash or Walach Harkon as the Vampire LL!

Khorne still has Skulltaker, the Mardaag, Ka'Bandha, Skarr Bloodwrath (Skullreapers are their own forces of Chaos Warriors, which are different to regular Chaos Warriors of Khorne), and Urlfdaemonkin (a Daemon Prince) to add, with Scylla Anfingrimm and Karanak as a LHs.
Khorne has enough characters, it is Tzeentch and Slaanesh that would run out of characters, sooner.

My fren, I fink der has been a communication break down between us, when I say generic characters, I mean unnamed ones.

Well, the Mardaag cannot be a generic Lord, since he is an unique creature. Arbaal, however, can just be a generic Chaos Lord of Khorne.

As for generic Lord options, we could always have a Skullreaper Lord (Skarr DLC), Beastfiend Lord (Ograx DLC), or even some kind of War Priest, which Khorne does have in the Lore.

There is enough yet to explore from Khorne, if you really want to.

For example:
-Skullreaper Lords and Heroes are less armoured and resilient to magic, but attack very quickly, do a lot of damage, and have a lot of HP.
-Beastfiend Herdmasters are Hybrid ranged and melee Lords, that get Stalk and quite a lot of speed.
-War Priests of Khorne are Heroes that get aura buffs and nerfs, like Sigmarite Warrior Priests or Patriarchs of Kislev.

It would not be hard to conceptualize.
What Khorne actually lacks, is unit options left to add.

Oops, I fink maybe I was unclear wif the Mardaag fing, I didn’t mean dat he should be a generic lord, I meant if CA couldn’t give us a new generic lord den deh could give us a bonus legendary lord, in the form of Mardaag, instead.

Dat bein’ said, I was lookin’ at the WoC 8th edition army book, and was shocked to see dat Slaughterpriests were actually a fing back den.

So, much of what you’re describin’ could be added. Most of it wasn’t in the 8th edition army book, but CA might be able to add it if deh can get teh green-light from GW.

The Changebringers, one of the new units Tzeentch is getting in this DLC, is also not in the 8th edition list. It is a Storm of Magic unit.

This means that it is possible we will see a lot more stuff for this game, that was not in 8thED.

I fink it was Storm of Chaos, but as muh marauders are constantly shoutin', MAGIC IS CHAOS, so either one works really.

I'm really hopin' we get teh middenland army list from Storm of Chaos fir the Empire in ToD, cause Middenland has what are basically giant war-pugs, and I NEED dem almost as badly as I need Hotseat mode.

I do not see Middenland getting much for ToD, since it will be the Tamurkhan DLC, and the Empire will likely get Nuln units, instead (Ironsides, Repeater Handguns, Hochland Longrifles, Master Engineers, Mechanical Steeds...).

Meanwhile you can play Khorne, and get all those mean looking doggos of blood and carnage.
Or wait a while longer, and get the datamined Dogs of War DLC that will inevitably come, to satiate all your goodest boy needs.
