Total War: WARHAMMER II will get even more chaotic with the introduction of
The Queen & the Crone expansion, which will give you chance to see the clash between the unstoppable forces of the High Elves and the Dark Elves. The DLC will introduce famous rival characters and new iconic units from the world of
Warhammer Fantasy Battles to your campaigns and battles of the base game.
The expansion will give you a chance to command troops two new Lords, Alarielle the Everqueen, the living embodiment of Isha, and Crone Hellebron, who's releasing the slaves upon the streets of Naggaroth, killing thousands. That's obviously not all and Creative Assembly will also bring new quest chains, magic items, skill trees, and fresh campaign mechanics and objectives to improve the gameplay.
The DLC will also introduce new units that will join the endless and epic
Warhammer battlefield:
Sisters of Avelorn (Alarielle):
Among Alarielle’s most loyal warriors, the Sisters of Avelorn are dual-role combatants, skilled with both blade and bow. Their Bows of Avelorn deal Magical Flaming attacks, and like many High Elf units, they are subject to Martial Prowess.
Shadow Warriors (Alarielle):
The first (and often last!) clue a foe gets to the presence of the Shadow Warriors is a ravaging hail of arrows tearing into their ranks. With Vanguard Deployment, Stalk, and long-range bows, they can remain undetected while raining death from afar. They are also Master Ambushers, enabling them to stay hidden on the move, in any terrain, while firing in any direction.
Sisters of Slaughter (Hellebron):
These murderous gladiators of death wield cruel lash-whips dealing poisonous attacks. They also cause Fear, are subject to Murderous Mastery, and can trigger the Trial of Blades augment when losing in melee, improving their combat abilities.
Doomfire Warlocks (Hellebron):
These elite, magical cavalry are very fast moving, and deal both Magical and Poisonous attacks in melee. They are subject to Murderous Prowess, and may cast two Bound Spells: Soulblight and Lesser Doombolt.
Unique Hero: Handmaiden (Alarielle):
Handmaidens act as the right hand of Alarielle. They have several unique specialisations available in their skill trees, enabling them to influence diplomacy, trade and influence, to bolster their resilience in battle, and to make them peerless archers.
Unique Lord: Supreme Sorceress (Hellebron):
Hellebron can field new caster Lords to lead her armies. Supreme Sorceresses may be recruited to wield the lores of Fire, Dark, Shadows, Beasts and Death. They can be given Names of Power to grant them new abilities, and upgraded to ride a range of mounts, from the Dark Steed to the Cold One, Dark Pegasus, Manticore and the mighty Black Dragon.
Total War: WARHAMMER II is a strategy game of titanic proportions. Choose from four unique, varied factions and wage war your way – mounting a campaign of conquest to save or destroy a vast and vivid fantasy world. This is a game of two halves – one a turn-based open-world campaign, and the other intense, tactical real-time battles across the fantastical landscapes of the New World.
Total War: WARHAMMER II - The Queen & The Crone launches on May 31, 2018 exclusively on PC.
