A bunch of Total War modders have lastly added naval battles to Total War: Warhammer 2 – kind of. The mod – GCCCM: Naval Battles – was posted to the Steam Workshop yesterday, and gives a way for gamers to play out their very own battles at sea.
In latest historic Total War games, battles at sea have been resolved through particular naval engagements, during which land models have been both represented by ships or – within the case of Empire and Napoleon – ships have been a unit kind all their very own. In Warhammer II, nevertheless, these battles have been fully absent. If two enemy armies met on open water, the game would routinely resolve the following battle. As this technique is quirky to say the least, and historically favours the AI, participant armies which could have received on paper might be defeated on the water.
With this mod, nevertheless, there’s a approach to play naval battles with out resorting to autoresolve. You received’t be capable of management any ships, however as a substitute, whenever you meet an enemy military at sea, your models will spawn onto a set of islands, at which level you’ll play out a land battle as you’ll in the remainder of the game.
It’s not a naval battle within the conventional sense, admittedly, however it’s higher than counting on the pc. There’s a complete of 9 naval battle maps, which is able to presumably be chosen based mostly on one of the best match in your present location.
You can obtain the mod through the Steam Workshop now (you’ll want each Part 1 and Part 2 as a way to get every part working correctly). It’s value mentioning that it’s nonetheless in beta, because the mod’s creators say that “due to the massive amount of backend changes, we cannot possibly test this enough on our own.” With that in thoughts, bear in mind that the mod may not be fully clean crusing simply but.
