This DLC is actually free for those who own both Total War Warhammer and Total War Warhammer 2. The intervention armies are a pretty terrible and unfun solution, imho.The Total War Warhammer 2 Mortal Empire DLC was announced by Creative Assembly. If a faction is getting close to reaching the last ritual, everyone would be hellbent on preventing them from completing it. Then introduce more options to distrubt the rituals, diplomatic actions to unite the other factions against the one leading in the rituals. Make it so that each ritual gives you a faction specific permanent boost, and the faster you completed it compared to the others, the better the reward (like, a 15% upkeep reduction for the first who finishes it, then 10% for second place, 5% for third and so on). What they should have done is take a look at the Civ games and their non-domination victory goals. Think it's a just a pretty underwhelming and lazy mechanic, all in all I also dislike that it takes 60 turns to finish them
Never mind that you can't really lose the campaign if you fail to complete the rituals first. On higher difficulties it will most likely wreck you early game (unless you save the game, see where the armies spawn, then reload and postion accordingly), the Skaven and Lizardmen (successors, I took out Mazdamundi) in my campaign both got reduced to irrelevance just by the Chaos and intervention armies. There's no incentive to do rituals early, you don't get any permanent boni out of it as far as I can tell (the -10% upkeep reduction is just for the duration of the rituals I think?). The problem I have with the vortex campaign is that you really just trigger a mini-Chaos invasion right at your door step with each ritual, that's not any better or more interesting than what game 1 did. Like, the skill tree, infrastructure, and dynamic trait overhauls are a good start. They should tone down the item and hero spam and extra levels, and instead focus on making what's currently here shine. But it'd be a lot better if these little things were tighter and more important to the overall game. It's fortunate most of this stuff is needed to optimise, rather than play.
