What lessons have your team learned from designing and implementing race pack DLC? And, in particular, how have you carried these lessons over to current/potential future projects? Mitch: Well I guess firstly making distinct factions has taught us that having distinct factions in the game makes the world of difference, and I’d say its the top of pyramid of design focus for everything we do now. But we are very much aware that there are a fair number of missing characters and units for the WH1 races, both main game and DLC, some of which we would love to be able to add in the future if and when appropriate. With development currently focused on WARHAMMER II, has the door permanently closed on more content (paid and free) for WARHAMMER I factions? Rich: So currently you are absolutely right, we are focused on adding more content for WARHAMMER II races and getting the Lizardmen and Skaven on a par with Elves in 2019. Have you ever considered cross-game DLC for WARHAMMER II? Rich: Absolutely, there are some very iconic clashes between characters of the new and the Old World. Which one it is I can’t say at this time – and potentially it may not be the one that you are most hoping for – but rest assured that the New Content Team will endeavour to give the old factions a fresh lick of paint at some point and certainly give you something new and hopefully exciting to play with. Rich: I’m happy to say yes, the next campaign pack will come with another rework to an Old World faction. Will the next DLC come with another rework for an Old World faction? With the vast 8-player Realm of Chaos multiplayer campaign, the intense 1 v 1 Domination mode, the story-driven multiplayer campaigns built around Kislev and Grand Cathay and ranked & custom battles, there’s no shortage of ways to cause chaos with friends.We recently held an AMA with the Fantasy New Content Team over on the Total War Reddit with lead designer Richard Aldridge, DLC designer Mitch Heastie, and brand director Rob Bartholomew – check out the highlights below.
