Correct. And what have all those stories in common? They are told by Lohner. Ergo, Saltzpyre’s new DLC career will be Lohner.
In a more serious note. I don’t see how this would connect to Chaos Wastes (even without knowing anything about Chaos Wastes). If anything I would firmly believe that Drachenfels will have something to do with Chaos Wastes.
I really want not only the gameplay, but also the plot of the game to be completed in some interesting way, before the Developers will finally move on to Darktide.
[offtopic] It has now been announced the end of Man O’ War: Corsair on the Steam Store. Another Warhammer-based game will be less soon. All this is sad.
The first image looks like a winter forest, and the second one has maybe the Death Weave filter applied to it. I think they are tied closer to the stories contained within those blog posts, rather than related in any way with the proper Chaos Wastes.
The image with the filter could simply be a screenshot from Engines of War, Dark Omens or any other forest map really with some tinkering in photoshop. The first one doesn’t really resemble The Cursed Rune or Chain of Fire from Verm1, so bets are up. My own bet however would still be on an imperial forest rather than Kislev or Troll Country.
It’s a good guess. I don’t really fancy premium cosmetics, but having an entire post as the background for an item sounds cool
My dream at this point is a set of map-pack heavily related to each character. Like: helping bardin search for his lost daughter, kerillian having unfinished businesses in Athel Lohren etc.
If that’s all too resource consuming, maybe releasing only 1 such map for each premium career.
