Total War: Warhammer II - The Prophet & The Warlock DLC - (PC) Steam EUROPE Digital Key
The Prophet & The Warlock is the latest Lords Pack for Total War: WARHAMMER II.
Introducing two rival Legendary Lords from the world of Warhammer Fantasy
Battles, each with their own objectives, mechanics, units and playstyle, for use
in both the Eye of the Vortex and Mortal Empires campaigns, and
custom/multiplayer battles.
* Two powerful new Legendary Lords with new quest-chains, legendary items and
skills trees
* Play as Clan Skryre (Skaven) or the Cult of Sotek (Lizardmen) with unique new
campaign mechanics
* Two new additional Lord types
* Nine new battlefield units and variants including the bullet-spewing Ratling
Gun Weapon Teams and the fearsome Ripperdactyls
* Unleash ultimate devastation with the Clan Skryre Doomrocket, or summon an
aspect of the very serpent god himself into battle with the Invocation of
Sotek!
* New Regiments of Renown to unlock, recruit and field
Background
The great serpent-god Sotek may sleep, but Tehenauin – his most devoted prophet
– does not. The time has come for the foul Skaven to pay the butcher’s bill for
their plague-spreading acts, and pay they will – with their very lives!
Tehenauin marshals his fellow Red-Crested Skinks: there will be a sacrifice. A
vast, crimson sacrifice. Only when the temple-city altars are drenched with
Skaven blood will the serpent god become manifest and enact his divine wrath…
But the Skaven do not sit idly by while Tehenauin plans his crusade. Scenting
great Warpstone deposits in the jungles of Lustria, the arch Warlock-Engineer
Ikit Claw has claimed The Star Tower in the name of Clan Skryre: a staging-post
from which to delve deep into the continental interior. With the Forbidden
Workshop at his disposal, Ikit Claw will bend the raw stuff of chaos to his
twisted designs, forging ever-more ingenious and cataclysmic weapons… and
placing the Warlock-Engineer on a collision course with the Prophet of Sotek!
NEW LEGENDARY LORDS AND FACTIONS
IKIT CLAW, THE WARLOCK ENGINEER (SKAVEN, CLAN SKRYRE)
Ikit Claw – like all of Skavenkind – is naturally suspicious, untrusting,
untrustworthy and treacherous. His aptitude for science and invention is
unrivalled, but as well as being the greatest Skaven Warlock Engineer of all
time, Ikit Claw has also developed an awesome command of the Winds of Magic. His
exceptional scientific knowledge and magical powers have made him indispensable
to the Council of Thirteen.
In his quest for destruction, Ikit seeks to realise his grandest design – the
mighty Doomsphere – and he will stop at nothing to unleash it upon the world…
Clan Skryre brings several unique faction features and mechanics to Total War:
WARHAMMER II:
Clan Skryre Forbidden Workshop
With access to the infamous Forbidden Workshop, Clan Skryre players can spend
resources to upgrade various units such as Doomwheels, Doom-flayers and Weapons
Teams with powerful new stat-boosts and attributes. As the player upgrades in
each category, they will unlock further ancillaries and, eventually, new
regiments of renown unique to the Forbidden workshop.
Workshop progress requires food and Warp Fuel, a new resource gathered after
battles. New research tiers in the Workshop may be unlocked by completing unique
missions. But the deadliest invention by far that the Workshop offers is the
Warpstorm Doomrocket.
Warpstorm Doomrockets
Doomrockets are outlandishly powerful weapons, deployed in battle as an Army
Ability. They are crafted in the Forbidden Workshop, and can be stockpiled for
use, though only one Doomrocket from the stockpile may be launched per battle.
Perhaps the most powerful weapon wielded by any of the Races of WARHAMMER II, a
single Doomrocket is capable of wiping out multiple units in a single strike,
sending dust and debris skywards in an incinerating mushroom-cloud!
Doomsphere
While the Under-Empire is a feature newly-available to Skaven factions (see the
Doomsayer Update Notes for more details), only Clan Skryre can build the
Doomsphere within the Under-Cities they establish. This immense Warpstone bomb
is powerful enough to completely destroy any settlement it is constructed below.
Unique Lord – Warlock Master
The Warlock Master is a caster Lord who uses the Lore of Ruin in battle. Warlock
Masters have unique skills which grant further bonuses to Doom Flayers,
Doomwheels and Weapons Teams. They may be upgraded to ride a Doom Flayer or
Doomwheel in battle.
Unique Units
* Ratling Gun Weapons Team: Specialist anti-infantry gun teams bearing the
rotating, rapid-fire Ratling Gun. Ratling Guns are heavy damage-dealers which
also Supress their targets, slowing their movement.
* Warplock Jezzails: Long-range, armour-piercing sniper infantry. These
sharpshooters have the highest-quality shields, and their projectiles confer
the Shieldbreaker contact effect.
* Doom-Flayers: Smaller than the Doomwheel (and twice as messy!), Doom-Flayers
are designed to punch through enemy lines and deal powerful armour-pi
