Ah yes, find the Norscan Dawi and get another Sigmar blessing for getting them in contact with the Karaz Ankor dawi again.
Eh, kinda but not quite as much as you're probably thinking. The aquafarms while able to produce food I. The form of fishes, mussels and crustaceans isn't really the main reason for why they are important. Instead, it was all of the fresh water, that all of those farms were making that was the real goal behind targeting and destroying them. The food pyramid that we also choose to attack, which probably made far more food them both farms combined, unfortunately only dealt with luxury goods, instead of the less expensive and more common foodstuffs for everyone else on the Ark. This isn't to say that we haven't taken a lot of food production away, only that the food market is still stable enough to sustain the current population of the Ark, but the water demands for the population is another story altogether. Especially since I think we just destroyed about half of all of their fresh water production facilities right now?
Ugh, NuHammer. This quest started long before Total War Warhammer 3. Long before. Terms and concepts were altered for this quest that made it into TWW3, and some things that were decent like socially theatrical louder than life dragons, made it into this quest.
I mean, part of the issue with the whole Cathay/Old World strengths/importance and such is that, well, GW just never developed the Far East further than they did. Which is, pretty much, just a few throwaway bits compared to the utter wealth of the Empire/Brettonia/Ulthuan/Etc. stuff. Books, codexes, warscrolls, and so on.
Like, parts of Cathay irritate me, in that GW clearly just mashed 'Asian' together into one country. Bannermen of Cathay are just Samurai, honestly, with the label sanded off and painted over in block letters. Ki-Rin vs. Qi-Lin, is another one, as I noted before. Languages means things, and are different. They could have said the people of Nippon call them Ki-Rin, while in Cathay they are known as 'Qi-Lin', but they didn't. The crow-men are clearly references to Tengu...which are a Japanese thing. As are Shugengan! Pretty obviously derived from the Japanese religion of Shugendō. They also have turtle-ships, which are Korean in origin.
So...if we ever deal with Cathay in closer detail, in any of my quests, ever, there's going to be some pretty significant changes. Like...Tengun, being actual living crow-men who live in Nippon, and the crow-men being but imitations of them. Or maybe Tengun are really magical statue things, but they're a Nippon invention, because fuck Cathay's already got stone dogs/Jade Lions/terracotta. Straight up stripping Cathay of calling their wizards Shugengan, I'll find something else from Chinese stuff, because...like, come on. That sort of thing, yeah?
But also, back to the original point, the Great Bastion is hundreds of miles long, it has a garrison that is tens of thousands strong all across its length. The armies of Cathay are supposed to be innumerable, they have the Jade Lion living statues, the living statues of Crow-Men, terracotta automaton soldiers, they have a bunch of dragons roosting, the monkey folk, the hill peoples, the cannons, the enchanted fireworks, their own magical traditions, etc. etc.
And GW gave them all that because, I suspect, they never intended to have to go into depth with it. So why not make it sound as fantastical and amazing as possible, because all of their stuff is going to purely focus on the Old World, and the New World, and only have passing references to the Far East. Leaving it to GMs of WHRP to probably homebrew it for their own tabletop campaigns and such. Fun little art pieces and minis, hurray! But nothing serious or involved.
Then in the End Times, they go up in a puff of smoke. Sure, the Dragon Emperor and his forces beat back the forces of the skaven entirely, and stalemate the world-ended invasion of Chaos. Then Grimgor comes over, wins immediately, and then turns right back around to go back to the real important part of Mallus...the Old World.
Honestly. It's like they didn't think that several years after creating their universe that some idiot with a keyboard wanted to do a quest which would involve a whole lot of that planet that they invented.
Yes, she was the one behind several high profile murders, and what we suspect was a break in attempt at rescuing some of our captive allies in the latest high profile mystery stunt that no one really knows who did it for whom.
Yep, she basically smelled freddy on the Ark and leroy Jenkins her way trough it. And now she have to deal with the weirdness that became freddys life. Trough Agatha and Alyse should had worked as a warning of the level of bullshit.
She rode a cannonball.
While the battle for Salkataken was winding down, Johanna just arrived. Only she just found out that we, Natasha, Roland, and our Bretonnian and Elf friends got captured on the second Ark retreating from the port. So, in order to catch up to the rapidly spreading away Ark, she got herself into a Imperial Cannon and looney tones style, shot herself as high into the air as possible to catch onto the top of the spires of the Ark to make it on board.
Torroar did some snips before where the player majority chose a specific snip to get more stuff written for it. Among these snips, were scenes from Johanna Fuerbach in the empire, just before she was arriving at Salkalten, just before she threw herself into a cannon, and a bit of a longer one where a slave on a Black Ark was walking up a tower ony to find Johanna's work.
I don't think we can say that until the bombs in the terrace farms go off, unless that was happening simultaneously with the aquafarm explosion. But yes, once that's done, I believe we just have sabotaging the auction and then escaping in the mayhem left.
Still haven't figured it out.
Also, Sunweaver can track us through the Light of Summer, and only can't right now due to us being in the Tor of Dominance. She can potentially relay our coordinates to the Dawi fleet.
There's still Roland's vision for the grail, which is likely to lead into Norsca.
Awwww, so cute!
Freddy has become Hultressa's girlfriend! lol
Sums up their lives pretty well, lol.
