You evil evil person....now i have to buy it......cannot wait!!! (Looking around for specs.) Just got to make sure my computer can run it.
Re: Total war Warhammer: Wood Elves!!!
*Sigh* It's just as I feared it would be.
If they had done a painstakingly faithful rendition of the 6th edition Wood Elves then I'd have been all over it. Indeed it would have been enough for me to suspend my usually harsh stance towards DLC. But like I suspected they would, they went with the 8th edition iteration, which even in digital form makes my blood boil. The questionable pronunciation in some of the voice acting doesn't help either (please tell me I'm not the only one who think it's "As-Rye" and that the A in 'Athel' is pronounced like the A in 'apple' while 'Loren' is pronounced like 'Lauren'.).
If they produce an alternate Wood Elf faction that's just like the 6th edition one, then I might give it another look. As it stands, I'll continue to give this one a wide berth.

Well yes their pronunciation is sub par. But since I dont have time to actually play anymore. I'll have to wait until I can train my kids. I'll take it and run with it. As-er-i is how I pronounce it anyways.

Nope, you're not the only one! I'be been pronouncing it like that for years, and I got the pronouncation from Nigel Stillman!Kakapo42 wrote:*Sigh* It's just as I feared it would be.

As for the look of them, to be fair though they probably had to use renditions of the current model range..

Re: Total war Warhammer: Wood Elves!!!
I think this DLC is quite good!! The rendering of Orion is not as I would have pictured it but you cannot make every body happy. Heck, some people complaint about Rogue one... (Its another thread!)
They have introduce a new way of playing the game with this faction. I am now to the final battle to finish this expansion and I had a lot of fun playing with our beloved elves.

Re: Total war Warhammer: Wood Elves!!!
I've so far only dipped my toe in the water playing WE's, I'm still playing as Grimgor at the moment.. It really is a lovely game once you get a hang of it, sometimes controls seem.all over the place and a bit vague..
I had just got the game and as immersing myself in it when my old laptop died before Christmas, & I'm loving it on my new one.. it's the only game I have on it..
Just so glad they released it..
