    Default Warhammer 2 possible DLC(s) SteamDB

    I was having break in work and realize after reading a few threads that there might be more DLC for WH2 than we think.

    For start some useful links where I was digging info. You donīt need to explore them unless you are interested.
    WH2 steam db: https://steamdb.info/app/594570/dlc/
    WH1 steam db: https://steamdb.info/app/364360/dlc/
    nice discussion at TW forum: https://forums.totalwar.com/discussi...hat-is-next/p1

    The pattern for FLC is the same as with WH1, they are added at the last possible time. Probably as they cost no money to obtain they might have different setup at steam. On opposite side all planned DLC are usually inserted way before.

    There are still two old DLC/FLC from WH1 - Norsca and 30th RoR regiments. The lowest two entries, both were remove from packages 6 month ago around announcing that Norsca is *delayed*. 594603 appears to be Norsca with multiple Norsca mentions and comparing history with WH1 Norsca DLC there are very very similar packages. Norsca sits well with AppID as we can easily see pattern with added WH1 DLC/FLCs with just ID increasing by 1 number. Actually by checking WH1 Norsca DLC we can easily found that DLC was set up in March 2016 long time before announcing actual Norsca DLC. May be it was unsure side project for long time?
    WH2 594603 - Probably Norsca DLC https://steamdb.info/app/594603/history/
    WH1 Norsca DLC - https://steamdb.info/app/455040/history/

    732960 is then probably 30th RoR, by checking WH1 FLC, it looks like 30th RoR were last time addition, long after steam DB was set up for WH2 so thatīs probably reason why 30th RoR for WH2 is sitting there with different AppID. By checking history 732960, we can see it was also removed from packages 6 months ago and as this FLC was suppose to come with Norsca....it should be 30th RoR.
    WH2 732960 - https://steamdb.info/app/732960/history/
    WH1 30th RoR - https://steamdb.info/app/635350/history/

    And thatīs leaving 5 entries for possible future DLCs:
    -Two are probably Lord Packs,Grace_CA actually comfirmed long ago that they are working on more than one Lord pack. Another DLC then might be Race Pack and then maybe one "Bretonnia" free update leaving another DLC in complete speculation...Of course we can again try to discuss which faction, LL we might get etc. but for that we usually try to analyse in-game campaign map, not steam DB. If I should make my calls. Lord packs are already covered in million discussions. We will see HE/DE, Skavens/Lizardmen plus HE/DE/Lizardmen FLC LL.

    Some ideas what we may see:
    -Araby is prime candidate to be added due to land being depicted in both Vortex/ME campaign but it would yet another faction in Southlands. WH2 DLCs must work like addition in Vortex map primary and of course in ME as well. But CA has no problem moving stuff around but only concerning LLs as we see with Skavens and TK. Araby is in the very same boat as Norsca was so probably that could be the free update ala Bretonnia?
    -There are some hints about Southern Realms (technologies for Norsca, Miragliano being 10 slot city for AI faction...) - Estalia/Tilea/Border Princes? with many possible ties to Dogs of War, Mercenaries, RoR, Rogue Armies...easily including elements like Amazons or New World Colonies. One problem is, their homeland is not depicted in Vortex. Compare it again with Araby,Tomb Kings. Both might be very easily represented in Vortex and ME. So it would be like main addition for ME with just parts being available in Vortex through New World Colonies or such?
    -The last popular theory might be about adding new sub faction for WH1 old factions. With Giant Slayers we can see CA is trying to improve old faction but there still might be space for yet bigger addition. Like Vampire Coast, Suddenburg,...
    -The craziest idea I might have is actually about Skavens. (Such craziness is actually befitting fury bastards ) If you remember old data leaked info, Skaven were supposed to be DLC for WH2. What if they are another race DLC. CA said that they will ditch minicampaign for more LLs but the formulation was such, that it could be case only for TK. Skavens on other hand are offering still so many clans, LLs that even with Lord pack on the way we might find another 2-3-4 very good LLs for different clans. Minicampaign can depict possible struggle for dominance in under-empire, we cannot do justice to under-empire without ME map and even that would be some serious simplification. They is no problem moving LL around in Vortex campaign as we see with Trentch plus we have multiple great Skaven Locations in ME (Hellpit,SkavenBlight...). This is of course very wild theory but Skavens are only possible faction able to pull it out with so many clans,characters...We should get only one more LL from Lord pack and still have plenty of Great clans to go: Skyre, Moulder, Eshin (only Pestilence is in with lesser Warlord clans Rictus and Mors) ..and of course missing special snowflake Thanquol proably as Gray Seers/Emissary of Council of Thirteen..

    I tried not to list everything rather showing different approaches CA can take to these DLC.. :-)
