    Actually I wouldn't be surprised if they manage to get the bastiladon in the game. Besides the Stegadon, that's really the only larger dino, that the lizards can field as a choice and not a lord mount. :)

    Just a thought, but they did make Hippogriph knights for the Brits, so maybe Carnosaur Riders for the Lizzies:cool: One can always hope :woot:

    You know, the hippogriph knights hippogriphs are smaller than the lord variant, and the carnosaur in the trailer looked awfully small. :)

    I think they can easily throw in the solar engine bastilodon. Its basically like the Luminarch of Hysh, shoots light rays/artillery things.

    now an ark of sotek bastilodon, I can see that as part of a "Tehenhauin vs skaven" DLC

    I'm mostly excited about the Southlands. Anyone care for Lizzie's marching northward?

    Also what's with all these Fans of historical Total War ranting about this announcement?
    Did no one get the memo?

    First of, they had already announced that they were working on WarHammer II, that another team would be working on a Historical title was also announced, but at a later point. Natural assumption would also tell that, since WH II is essentially a very large expansion, that game wouldn't take quite as long to Finnish. It's the balancing and designing the new model that takes the work hours, not making the engine run.
    To ad to this, the teaser we got was very obvious meant as a hint for Lustria. Yes Meso America, South Asia, India and Congo are all placed it could have been would it be a Historical Title, but none of those where ever in the cards (Not as far as I can read). So it was fairly Ad Hoc to assume that it were meant as a teaser for Victoria TW, Thirty Years TW or whatever those History fans were hoping for (Thirty Year wars sounds fun, alright. But they didn't have Dinosaurs, Christian IV would have fared far better had the Danes had T-rexes I'm sure). Such games wouldn't be teased for showing a jungle with roaring beasts, the idea is quite far fetched.

    I'm glad it truly was a teaser for WH II, but yeah, some people baffles me... o_O

    Also, the countdown they had was EXACTLY the same image that start the cinematic trailer and there was a Lizardmen pyramid clearly visible at the bottom.

    They are whining around, but if they know so much about history, they how could they assume that it was a pre-hispanic pyramid when NO REAL WORLD PYRAMID HAS A GIANT GEM AND TWO BIG SPIKES ON THE TOP?

    https://www.totalwar.com/blog/total-war-warhammer-ii-coming-soon/

    Look what will happen in the campaign. Sotek's comet is interfering the Great Vortex.

    Uhm... so we could assume that the next game could be End Times?

    Also, about DLCs... I'm pretty sure that, if Lizardmen got one, it will be focused on the Southlands kin, and/or some other figures, like Tichi-Huichi's Raiders.

    The Steam page is also up: http://store.steampowered.com/app/594570/

    Well, everything about the first game is pretty end-time-ish, so why not :)

    I can see that happening. In fact I kinda hope so. I really want demons. Besides my beloved lizardmen, demons are my favorite race.

    Looks awesome, the way they have animated the Saurus to move like raptors from Jurrasic Park, almost :D

    Awesome! :-D

    Didn't even notice that at first, I reckon we have him confirmed as a legendary lord for sure, then.

    While i'm 99% sure that Kroq-gar is the second legenday lord, i don't think that's him. No spear, no armor, wrong head and he wields a shield. look's more like a generic(but still badass looking) oldblood.

    Officially hyped last Friday, now mega hyped.

    Especially with tomb Kings as rumored first dlc race. Will play them and Lizzie's for days and days.

    Anyone notice people freaking out on total war center about Skaven being dlc? The only two options that make sense as to why they were not In the trailer is:

    A: the renders are not done

    B: hype building
