i hope that the hero comes for Khorne, which actually can cast spells.

[@krispinidan1478]

do you reckon he's gonna be a lord? I just wish we had more khorne lords (but maybe aarbal takes that spot)

[@jobvermuyen5382]

​@@Booklat1skulltaker would probably be the herald lord just like epidemius and changeling, hopefully also the masque

[@Gimladesh]

I agree that Khorne shouldn't have a spellcaster, but it would be nice to have some sort of unit that does something with winds of magic. Maybe it just absorbs them to get stronger or provide a festus heal aura effect while it consumes them.

[@TehSlice360]

A fine addition to Archaons legendary hero collection

[@brickphone8069]

Does his ass have access to Kayzk, I haven’t finished my Tamarukhan campaign and am curious if the hero poacher got Kayzk too

[@Zarphon]

@@brickphone8069 Since Kayzk is acquired through Tamurkhans Chieftain mechanic, and not from a quest, my money is on Archaon not having access to any of Tamurkhans legendary chieftains.

[@adjoe4799]

@@brickphone8069 I think that's a Tamarukhan only hero, since he's recruited through his unique mechanics

[@brickphone8069]

@@adjoe4799 Wasn’t sure if they added him to an eye of chaos event or something, I can see them giving Kayzk to Festus that way, make up for Azazel and Valkia getting super strong special eye of chaos stuff

[@phenex777]

So new Khorne Dlc probably going to be Arbaal, Skulltaker flc, and Scyla as LH.

[@gstellar96]

Very solid

[@piratepigc]

Hopefully they are up against a Greenskin

[@jobvermuyen5382]

Scylla would be very fun because then khorne just has monstrous legendary heroes that want to fight and are really strong. With karanak and anfingrimm in one army you would just have a bestial hero army

You’re valid on this, first game to have any monogod representation, of course they’re gonna get a bunch of support this game, the Lizardmen and Skaven dominated Total War 2 let Chaos run it for a little while

[@Talotta1991]

Absolutely love the lore behind this guy. The idea of Khorne sending out a “bloodhound” instead of a demon / human to ensure the job gets done.

[@ShinDig_Central]

Well Nathan, it seems almost every prediction you've made has been proven correct. I hope your prediction that the game will receive more love for the years to come is true.

[@klavicus2276]

Sweet little trailer. Very cool character. Like the design very much beside the crests - really hoped they would remove the crests but maybe a modder can.

[@sheildingepicness]

Yeah he looks like a triceratops kinda weird

[@ShadowPhoenixMaximus]

I wish he was a lord. It would added more variety to the khornate roster

[@KingInBlack69]

I frankly see him better this way. As Lord...just no

A dog as a general? X_x

I wonder if he's going to be available for undivided. I mean, who wouldn't like Sigvald, Siggy to his many friends, going for a long walk with his best boy Karanak, as well as his mates Aekold and Harry? That story does something, doesn't it?

[@ecargfosreya]

I’m not getting sick of Chaos characters, I hope we get more

[@inductivegrunt94]

The goodest Khorne Dog is here! Both Khorne and Archaon now have a new pet to play with and to help snipe lords and heroes. I'm so excited for this! I wonder if Karanak will provide debuffs for nearby enemy spellcastors and possibly buffs for Flesh Hounds in the army. Hopefully Khorne gets a DLC soon as it's my favorite Chaos Daemon faction.

[@Booklat1]

I think we'll get slaanesh (original roadmap) and maybe nagash dlcs first (100th lord) The dog is probably a gift so we won't complain too much when khorne takes a while to arrive. I'd rather have a khorne legendary lord but this guy should also be fun. I doubt he changes Skarbrand's campaign much though.

Konrad von Carstein for VCounts!

[@parttimehero8640]

@@KingInBlack69 yes! pls. And Ungrol Four-Horns for beastman

[@darthralin]

I'm holding out hope that they'll give him something that makes him extra handy for assassinations to keep us from dumping him in our LLs army and forgetting about him. The idea I have is that once you click a character, you get two hero action options, assassinate and track. The tracking option only turns up for spellcaster heroes, and in addition to keeping them from hiding (running off to hide outside your line of sight, or getting into an ambushing army, etc.) by placing a quest marker on them, it also makes them extra vulnerable to assassination or being killed in battle by debuffing them. The kicker is that the tracking works on spellcaster lords as well, so that even if you can't assassinate them, Karanak can still weaken them for the eventual battlefield confrontation.

[@Gibson7Clans]

I really hope Karanak buffs not just Flesh Hounds, But also normal Hounds of Khorne too. 😁

[@2prize]

excuse me sir when does the dog install into my computer 😎😎

[@loganphillips2166]

I was curious what the general theme for the remaining chaos factions would be. Since we had a focus on the demons and hertics, with Thrones and Shadows lords emphasizing the mutants. So Khornes going to focus on super doggos, along with stuff like forsaken and minotaurs probably.

[@KingInBlack69]

And khorngors!

[@Drifting4Miles-jv2wl]

Maybe some people might be getting tired of Chaos stuff, but the key thing to remember is that the Chaos roster is absolutely super massive! And with them getting all but completely neglected in game 2, (Taurox and the things that came with him were all Chaos got) game 3 HAS to be the Chaos game.

[@Doombot221]

Considering how Karanak draws other flesh hounds to him over a hunt, i wouldn't be surprised if he could summon a flesh hound to him

[@steelfist1305]

You were right again! Almost like you actually just have insider info and your 'predictions' are all confirmed when you make them ;)

[@TheStranger077]

"I know, it's another Chaos character, you guys are sick of that", no good sir, we're not. If Chaos is suppose to be an Army of Darkness and Evil Lights that is destined to bring the End Times, CA better bring to the game all Chaos units, mechanics, heroes and legendary lords.

[@Booklat1]

>me, listening to metal and wearing spikes "no i'm not"

[@ShadowWolfRising]

Me: Ok, but where is Zuvassin and/or Malal? And we need a Self-Hating Chaos Faction in general, like Ungrol 4 Horns who hates other Chaos Factions.

[@konradtarasek5514]

They werent in lore for 30 years or more get over it​@@ShadowWolfRising

[@leolinguini260]

I don't particularly like chaos. But I like them getting more named characters. It's just one more worthy enemy to fight.

[@DarkWarriorShadowClaw]

I take it that if you fully embrace Tzeentch - knowledge and madness - you could actually escape Karanak, but you most likely wouldnt be yourself anymore; quite a predicament for Karanak's prey

[@brianwalsh1339]

Sure hope this guy doesn’t break the entire game again like Hammerstorm did…

[@Talotta1991]

I love the LH but they do got me wondering about something like that. With so many we have now so many armies are EXTREMELY powerful. Like i took out an ENTIRE army with just the Scribes. I love the LH but they are pretty extreme.

[@PNarbz123]

Only makes sense right? Khorne hero/lord for Skulls for the Skull Throne event?

[@CommanderBohn]

BEST BOI COMING THROUGH! Wondering if you can pet him like Cerberus in TROY?

[@AndrewPatterson-xq4qk]

I hope the khorne dlc is in norsca, to unite the clans into one civilization. Also fuck the wizard

[@sampiaggio9534]

Now that we're getting Karanak, if we later get Ka'Bandha we'd be able to play Khorne's Huntsmaster and his hound.

[@tuckerbad]

gw really changed their stance on aos/40k styles with us artists in favour for ToW old school.... and i do like this model

[@gstellar96]

Im glad they went with more of the Hellhound route than the flesh hound one. Looks great. It would nqme Fluffy and say he doesn't bite (he totally does)

[@ecargfosreya]

Flesh hoods perform amazing for their price

[@jiado6893]

I was thinking they could be a Legendary Lord, and the diplomacy screen & quest battle dialogue would have the three heads arguing.

[@ghorstbusters6238]

Used the mod Karanak for so long I forgot he wasn’t in the base game.

[@JakubZN]

I see some rivalry with Oracle of Sotek ;)

[@LordTheCyril]

Karanak is a fun idea, but the fact that they scrapped the roadmap isn't... I wanted slanesh and elves... then Khorne and whomever... The two gods I enjoy the most get shafted...

[@NotNewButYork]

God damn, he looks great. Also, good thing we finally got Hyenas - it can't be a coincidence that the three heads look kinda like Shenzi, Banzai and Ed from the Lion King.
