Controversial opinion time...
Is Norsca the best addition they made to the original game since it came out? They really seem to add a huge amount to the game, including opening up a whole new area of the map. Some of their game play is really interesting (monster hunts, taking ports, taking over other tribes.) They also have fimirs and werewolves and mammoths, which all blow my fucking mind with awesomeness.
What's more, they open the door to more minor factions and weird obscure shit in the future, which is something everyone is chomping at the bit for.
Is there a better DLC or FLC so far?

I will say that Norsca was the best addition. They themselves are just a really solid race, but the changes to the map they brought was the most important thing for gameplay. Remember those fucking Skaeling and Varg Doomstacks? More annoying than the main Chaos Faction could ever hope to be?
I will say that Bretonnia may be on par with Norsca as a race, but pre FLC Bretonnia was still viable to play and fight against (and I did win a campaign with them, faction unlockers rule). Pre-DLC Norsca made the game miles worse.

What surprises me about Norsca is that I didnt think it sounded that good in principle. I mean norscans are just diet-chaos, right? Who cares about them? But what we got was completely awesome.
I know which minor faction I want to see next...

Yeah, honestly? I want the Southern Realms more than Araby or Kislev.

I would take any of those three, but southern realms would the best. I love those minor factions!

I wasn't playing it. I've been doing a lot of Destiny recently while waiting for them to fix Mortal Empires.

Dreadfleet has some wonderful models. Genuinely some of the best GW have done in a long time. They are the closest to bringing sme of the crazy art form some ofhte books to life. The problem was it was about boats that weren't really compatible with any of their other games. For me and Red ned, who play a boat game called uncharted seas, it was like a gift from the gods and exactly what we wanted, but for everyone else their appeal was very limited. But just look at all this craziness-

Linking this back to warhammer 2... One of the ships in dreadfleet was the flaming scimitar- This bad ass magical pleasure barge was captained by a powerful wizard who could control elementals he kept in jars. He was called the Golden Magus. Now in the background, Araby don't have that many characters.... If they do make an appearance as a full faction, could the Golden Magus a legendary lord for them? He might seem obscure but lets not forget that Ghorst guy on his plague cart! He never even had rules! You could at least play the Magus in a game! If the Golden Magus did appear, me and red ned produce levels of fan girl sqeeing never before witnessed at frequencies only dogs can hear.
