These can be upgraded to provide further benefits as well. This way instead of sacking, razing of taking the port, you can now make the Pirate Cove which will secretly siphon a steady flow of income from the main settlement. Pirate Coves can be established after a victorious port settlement battle. While gaining and empowering the Star Metal Harpoon is the key to final victory for the Vampire Coast Lords there are new mechanics besides the Infamy ladder of pirate lords and ladies to fight. As you increase in rank, others will seek you out to challenge you as you claw your way up the ladder of Infamy claiming each part of the Shanty for yourself. As your faction wins battles, conquers territories and makes Pirate Coves, your Lords Infamy grows amongst the ranks of pirate lords and ladies. This is where the Infamy mechanic comes into play.

They won’t so much as look at you let alone fight you for it until you have proven yourself. Each part of the shanty lays in the undead clutches of high-ranking pirate captains of the Vampire Coast. You must invigorate it by using the three verses of a secret, ancient sea shanty. Sounds easy? It isn’t.įirst, you must find the Harpoon and claim it as your own. Only one who wields the Star Metal Harpoon can tame the beast. It stalks the sea, summoning storms and laying waste to ports at will. Long dormant, it has risen from its slumber due to the rumblings of the Great Vortex. The vortex matters little to these spirits of the sea, instead, they seek to lay death upon the great Merwyrm Amanar. Each seeking to pillage and plunder their way to ultimate victory. These are not ordinary lords though, these are Admirals of their very own fleet of scurvy undead pirates. Not satisfied with keeping the game as is, Creative Assembly has brought forth from the depths of the Vampire Coast four new Legendary Lords of undeath. This is our Total War Warhammer II: Curse of the Vampire Coast DLC review.

Bringing not only 4 new faction lords of the Vampire Coast but new gameplay mechanics for said faction and a different endgame for these scurvy undead while playing the campaign. Creative Assembly is shambling along with its latest addition to Total War: Warhammer II, Curse of the Vampire Coast.
