If you referring to this picture imgur.com is is alreaddy confirmed that this was "only" a teaser for the Blood for the Bloodgod-DLC. If you are referring to the repeated statement of them including every major race over the course of the trilogy you would be probably right.
Completely unrelated to that and to this threat, what the fuck is wrong with all the hate regarding the gore-DLC not being for free? First of all, with the age-rating Creative Assembly would have a pretty solid argument for it not being free, even if they were completely non capitalistic altruistic. However they are a company ffs, of course they are about profit. Sure they already returned their investment with the base game but it’s not about just evening out their investments... Plus 2,50€ as a price tag is seriously nothing to rage about... that’s like some bad fast food, some soda or roughly 2 energy drinks minus pledge for the cans. Or some ice cream. If you rage so hard about 2,50€ I seriously wonder how you could afford a 60€ game. You could argue about the Chaos fraction being behind a paywall 1 week after release and about their worth but this? If you like it buy it, otherwise don't. The price tag seems more then reasonable to me, like if you own CSGO you will be able to afford it through profits from ingame drops in not time etc. . Stop being such entitled little cunts and accept that game developers are in for the money and not some altruistic fucks that just want to spread games and making them try to appear like that because of your expectations. But no, of course you are right, they should even start to split all the profits of the game amongst the buyers and make the game free from here on. The internet reduced public outrage to a test for basic intelligence rather than an indicator that something is wrong...
Sorry for the rant, but after having to listen to multiple retarded arguments about this I had to vent…

Changes are active with this patch as well as the addition of blood knights.

That's what's been revealed by data mining the game files.
I really hope that they come soon. I'm not sure how to count it. Is BftBG DLC 1 or were WoC DLC 1?
You got some source on the DLC-List? Because as far as I know a big part of the datamining stuff is straight up outdated stuff from the early development phase.

Totally agree to your rant, I really didn't get the hate. It's 2,5€ ffs. And it has some custom events and they just released a big patch for free. Developers got to live somehow too.
I'm totally on the "day 1 chaos dlc was a dick move"-train, but that's no reason to hate them for everything they do afterwards.
Heard that pistoliers and other black powder units are dealing heavy friendly fire and should definitely not be deployed behind your lines. True? Also still true if they are shooting down from a hill? Do they hit each other in one stack if I don't stretch them out enough?

Ranged units don't deal friendly fire to themselves (unless they are using explosives and the enemy is that close) and don’t hinder their own line of fire. Friendly fire is very much a thing though, but if you are fighting on a hill with the enemy being uphill you often are able to shoot over your units. After the initial firing on the enemy while he advances, just pull your handgunners back and wait until the engagement happens, then move your handgunners to the flank and shoot him in the side/back. Shooting an enemy unit that is engaged in the back will also occasionally result in some friendly fire to the unit engaging them from the front, but it is totally unneglectable in comparison to the damage to health and moral that your enemy will suffer. You can also do some more advanced stuff like retreating individual units in a way that the chasing troop ends up in a setup crossfire.
Archers deal friendly fire aswell but since they fire in an arc it happens much less.

DLC 3 - Beastmen DLC 5 - Wood Elves DLC 8 - Tomb Kings DLC 10 - Skaven DLC 13 - Chaos Dwarfs DLC 15 - Ogre Kingdoms EXP 1 - High Elves, Dark Elves, Lizardmen (basically adding the entire continent to the west) EXP 2 - Daemons of Chaos (Khorne, Nurgle, Slaanesh, Tzeench)
Not sure how reliable that is, but it makes sense strutcture-wise (dlc's filling out the Old World and closest neighbours, expansions adding more of the world). Beastmen and Wood Elves are pretty much what I was hoping for from the beginning since they would be the easiest to put on the current map.

Well, I guess that Beastmen will be pretty similar to Greenskins but WE will most likely be very unique with plentiful archers and plenty of aerial units for kiting, in addition some super tough Treemen. Could be awesome.
