By conquering a city or sending an Engineer hero to found a burrow underneath it, all Skaven factions are now capable of building a complete underground stronghold beneath any land settlement in the game. Skaven finally got the ability to build undercities, inspired by the framework of Vampire Coasts’ Pirate Coves mechanic.

The biggest Skaven change brought by this update is actually not part of it at all, but a bundled free content patch. Luckily for non-ratmen races, only 5 of those can be held in the inventory at any one time. The explosion is both weaker and smaller than I expected - it is perfectly possible to wipe out 90% of units even with a perfect direct hit - but the tactical destructive power is unmistakable, and used in the right circumstances, it can completely change the course of a battle. Activated like all other special abilities in the game, the missile drops with pinpoint precision after a 5 second timer, potentially annihilating entire units with a green warpstone fuelled mushroom cloud.
Built on the workshop in exchange for Warpcells and food during the campaign map portion of the game, the Rockets can be stockpiled for use in battle and employed to devastating results. The Doom Rocket is an interesting thing, being one of two Clan Skryre-exclusive contraptions.
Together, those new devasting options add even more offensive capabilities to what was already a pretty deadly race. The new Doom Flayers (giant hamster balls of death), gatling-toting Ratling Gunners, and Warplock snipers can all have their stats and special abilities upgraded via the Workshop, as do the Doom Rockets: unique faux-nuke missiles that can be called in from the air as a special mid-battle ability.

A warlock engineer with unrivalled control of warpstone magic and contraptions, Ikit has access to the Forbidden Workshop a special upgrade system that allows Clan Skryre to upgrade some of its most dangerous contraptions. The Skaven - undisputed masters of subterfuge and damnation - get a bit madder and deadlier with the addition of Ikit Claw, the ratmen’s greatest scientist ever. New units, new Regiments of Renown, and two new lords and their new respective factions are all here, alongside additions that change the way their races play.

Much like the sprawling and decrepit Skaven underground cities, The Prophet and The Warlock DLC released today looks like a minor Lord Pack thing from above, but in actuality adds a lot of game changing things under the surface.īringing the red skin Tehenhauin to the Lizardmen and the greatest Warlock Engineer Ikit Claw to the Skaven, this DLC follows the same moulds of last year’s Curse of the Vampire Coast. Just when you thought Creative Assembly was done and scraping the bottom of the barrel before moving to Warhammer III, the Total War developers throw you a rat-infested curveball.
