Warhammer total war (Rage of the dark gods 1.5)

[Umbra]

I would like to raise awareness about this true gem i recently started playing. If you are a mayor warhammer and total war fanboy, like me  , you will cum bucketloads.
This total conversion mod for medieval 2: kingdoms is truly a work of art. The dedication required for such a detailed mod is amazing.

Here are some screenshots i took:

24 playable fractions and 2 unplayable (Night goblins and Beastmen)
From the four gods of chaos to every provice of the empire, elves, dwarves, orcs, undead and more- Each with their own art, voices, troops, buildings and tactics.

The orc horde lays siege to the legendary dwarf fortress of Karaz-a-Karak
Notice the stunningly beautiful UI, different for each faction.

I am having loads of fun with this mod, the only downsides i can complain about are:
- no costum towns like in Third age total war, Vanilla towns but retextured.
- the translation from russian to english can be sketchy at times
- some factions are REALLY hard to start with

Other than this i have only words of praise. Get the mod here!
For videos, there are plenty on youtube if you search for rage of the dark gods. Here is a preview of the costum sounds and units, orcs!

I'm kind of having a hard time caring about mods like this with CA making an actual Warhammer Fantasy game.

This looks awesome, thanks for informing!!

I'm kind of having a hard time caring about mods like this with CA making an actual Warhammer Fantasy game.

This is how i found this mod, while searching for info about, what i hope to be is Warhammer: Total war, i stumbled upon this total conversion. I was so hyped about this news, CA is in my top 3 developers, i had to play something now.

[okiN]

Yeah, for me it's kind of the opposite. I've gotten so used to all the improvements (especially campaign-side) CA have made in the more recent games that I'm sort of loath to go back to play mods for the older ones, especially when a new game is being worked on for the same setting. Anyway, I figure I'll be too busy with Rome II soon to have time for this for quite a while.

I'm looking forward to Rome 2, about as much as Europa Barbarorum 2, but that will never finish anyway.

And a Warhammer: Total War is not confirmed currently. ;)

[okiN]

It's not, and it probably won't be called that, but what kind of world do we live in if GW contacts CA to make a WHFB game that's not essentially in the vein of Total War? I expect there will be changes to make it more similar to the tabletop game, and the campaign may be different, but when the core battle system with the units and everything is already so similar to Warhammer in spirit...

I'm looking forward to Rome 2, about as much as Europa Barbarorum 2, but that will never finish anyway.

There will probably be a release someday, but I find MTW2 mods feel hopelessly outdated to play already, so that makes me a lot less excited for it than I would have been five or even three years ago.

I agree with Okin. I have probably played 1000s of hours of MTW2 but it is painful to load it up now with how improved STW2 is. I tried this warhammer mod before though it is very good.

I wanted to try this out some time ago, but downloading it is painfully slow and I gave up.

Aaah shit, getting into some of this!
