Looking down at that overland campaign map for the base game, you might notice some similarities there to real world topography - and that's absolutely not coincidence. Warhammer 2 Vortex Campaign Map And Settlements Developer Creative Assembly has confirmed the Warhammer 2 Vortex campaign map will be combined with the original Total War: Warhammer Old World map for a combined campaign titled Mortal Empires. Finally, Malus has access to his personal Cold One mount, Spite, as well as a single unique item The Warpsword of Khaine.That small number of races is about to increase significantly within the next two months. Malus’ army benefits from a -20% recruitment cost reduction and a -50% upkeep cost reduction for the following units Cold One Knights, Cold One Dread Knights, and Cold One Chariots. As for Malus’ personal Lord Effects, the tyrant has major benefits for the Dark Elves’ Cold One cavalry units, allowing him to assemble a powerful, cavalry-themed army. Plus, the faction starts already in a Military Alliance with Naggarond, Malekith’s faction. In addition, Hag Graef benefits from +30% income from Iron Mines, Gold Mines, and Marble Quarries in all their regions.

This effect means that Malus will get special missions from Tz’arkan which offer powerful items and followers as rewards. This factor is represented in his Faction Effects by “Tz’arkan’s Whispers”. While his Vortex campaign will include the standard Dark Elf campaign mechanics, Malus also has his own supplementary mechanics, representing his possession by the Daemon Tz’arkan. Malus Darkblade is the new Legendary Lord coming to the Dark Elves in The Shadow and The Blade. Malus Darkblade – Total War: Warhammer 2 Faction and Lord Effects
