Re: List of factions in the current game build
I would assume all the Dwarf factions would come under the High King, and all the Orks would unite, oh well....
As God wills it.
Re: List of factions in the current game build
Imagine how boring it would be if the Orcs just started with a Mega Empire though, this is much better. Same with the Dwarfs

Re: List of factions in the current game build
Makes sense to have the Orcs divided. But the Dwarves should theoretically have allegiance to the High King, but the High King shouldn't control them directly - same with the Empire and its elector counts.

Re: List of factions in the current game build
But eventually Grimgor does get high command of all the Orks and even some Ogres. The few who did not come under his rule were the ones who weren't close enough to witness his rise to power, and that is a rather small amount. No, how I would like it to go is to start with only a few normal boys, a few arrer boys, a few goblins and a few goblin archers, and to plunder your way to fame, but in the end you should have absolute rule of the Greenskins or the Dwarfs.
As God wills it.
Re: List of factions in the current game build
I assume that is exactly what the player will have to do, to get Waaagh Grimgor starting. He starts at point X on the map and bashes every greenksin tribe in his way to get control (and with each victory getting better units until he has the complete roster at his disposal).Originally Posted by Bobington
Where does the idea came from that Grimgor has absolute high command over all greenskins? In the lore, greenskins in the badlands would laugh about the idea of a "supreme reign Waaaghboss" up in the worlds edge mountains and vice versa. And Skarsnik for sure would only bow for Grimgor if he crushes Skarsniks armies and fortress first. Did I miss some new information that Grimgor would start as some kind of emperor with all greenskins on the map praising him? I think last week I read something about the possible rebellions a player could get (not with dwarfs) and I thought how fitting it would be if greenskin challengers would pop up everytime the Waaagh was idle to long.

For Vampire Counts
Eastern Sylvania: Castle Drakenhof, Eschen, Waldenhof
Western Sylvania: Fort Oberstyre, Castle Waldenhof and Schwartzhafen.
Re: List of factions in the current game build
Waldenhof is just Waldenhof and is located in Eastern Sylvania. There is no Castle Waldenhof. But a Castle Templehof. Which is the location of the VC subfaction called Templehof. Check my thread on settlements. This list i have composed on factions/subfactions/tribes/clans/holds/whatever you want to call them, is on the current game build shown in the Orc playthrough and Q&A dev talk video.
IMHO with the Templehof vampire count faction in the videos. We can guess that the player vampire counts faction will start in eastern sylvania and Templehof will start in western sylvania.

Re: List of factions in the current game build
Yeah I meant to say Templehof, just tired today and didn't sleep much last night
Anyway looking forward to see proper gameplay from this Race next month most probably.
Re: List of factions in the current game build
Why no Bretonnia?
Foederatus
Re: List of factions in the current game build
you can add to your list karak kadrim for the dwarfs as a different faction they seem to have their own banner at 23:50 in the dev twitch stream

Re: List of factions in the current game build
I don't know why people want Bretonnia so much. I honestly rather have Kislev, Albion, Estalia, or Tilea. Less fleshed out in lore perhaps, but more interesting.
Edit
Or even better Wood Elves.

Re: List of factions in the current game build
Anything omitted is because they have not been shown and are known as Unknown in region ownership in the videos.
Its Zhufbar. Check the banner on Karag Dromar and Oakenhammer. Its the same banner.

Re: List of factions in the current game build
Because you see that they have cities and faction leader in the campaign map reveal, it's not about wanting it's about what's allready there.
Re: List of factions in the current game build
I have added imgur links for all the factions, for those who want proof.

Re: List of factions in the current game build
Brettonia has been shown.
Re: List of factions in the current game build
Sure I'll add Brettonia, once you tell me what CA has decided that each Dukedom in Brettonia will be called and give me ingame confirmation. Because Brettonia is not one unified faction. The faction with King Louen Leoncoeur in it will surely be called Brettonia but not the rest.

Re: List of factions in the current game build
Why not simply add Brettonia and write you're going to add dukedoms later?

I guess the point is you start out by consolidating your own racial lands, then you venture out.
