Also wouldn't Nagash be a tad too OP?

Not if they gave each side their own God level character. The Empire could get Sigmar, then you could re-create the famous battle where Nagash invaded the Empire, but was narrowly defeated.

Could just be because its early morning and my memory isn't the greatest, but I don't recall hearing about that particular battle. Its not the end times is it? >.>

It was from Warhammer 2nd Ed. Before the vampires were split off to form their own faction. Would have been very late 90s.

Ah I see. Explains why I didn't recognize it as that predates my interest in warhammer by quite a fair bit of years.

The lore in the army book for them is an interesting read. Nagash captured hundreds and thousands of Greenskins and Skaven, and used a ritual to kill them and bring them all back as his undead army. The Skaven sent an assassin to kill him as he was in a sort of hibernation after the ritual. Took him a thousand years to resurrect himself, he re-established control over most of the undead he created and marched on the Empire. Pretty much made it all the way to the Imperial capital before Sigmar flattened him with his warhammer.

I was thinking for this game; The Undead as a playable faction, and marched on the capital. A 'what if' kind of scenario.

I'm waiting to see if they add campaign packs for Lustria and the Southlands.

That said a bigger map with more of the world would be nice too. The Total Warhammer map isn't that big, but then again I guess I've been spoiled by the warhammer fantasy mod for CK2.

There is a warhammer fantasy mod for CK2? Looks like i got no reason to buy this game now and will just play that!

@Strazdas I don't see why you wouldn't still buy Total war warhammer if you're playing CK2. They're 2 totally different games.

because i dont like the direction Total War franchise is taking and given limited time in a day im fine with just one game.

@Strazdas fair enough about the direction of the franchise. If you want a warhammer themed total war that isn't this one you can always try the Call of Warhammer mod for Medieval 2.

yeah, Mediaval 2 has lots of great mods. The engine is a buggy and unstable though, crash every third battle (and yes my computer is more than enough to run it at any setting) and half the troops not knowing how to climb siege towers getting stuck inside walls.
