Their society is based on cruelty, deception, and bloodthirsty murder. Dark Elves hate High Elves, everybody else, and each other, in that order. Naggaroth is basically where Canada would be, since Games Workshop pretty much lifted the Americas for their New World. They now live in Naggaroth, a chilly land next door to the Northern Chaos Wastes. The Dark Elves are the exiled product of a vicious High Elf civil war. Update 14 July: The full, official unit roster has now been released by Creative Assembly. But the broad themes of Dark Elf society haven’t changed a vast amount across Editions. The factions in the game tend to be based on 8th Edition line-ups (although some, like Bretonnia, didn’t have an army book for that version), so I’m going to be slightly out of date on newer unit specifics. To be absolutely clear, I don’t have direct insider knowledge here – this is all based on educated guesses from the tabletop. For those wondering what the army is about, and the sorts of units likely to appear in the next Creative Assembly game, this article should give you a decent idea. As someone who played a whole lot of 5th (and a bit of 6th) Edition Warhammer Fantasy Battle with Dark Elves, I’m pretty keen to see how they translate to Total War: Warhammer 2.
