Here’s the Vampire Coast unit roster in Total War: Warhammer 2, featuring giant crabs

Following last week's announcement that the salt-flavoured undead of the Vampire Coast would be Total War: Warhammer II's next DLC faction, developer Creative Assembly has revealed their Legendary Lords and, now, their army roster. We've gathered all the details below. Many in the community predicted the inclusion of Luthor Harkon, Count Noctilus, and even Aranessa Saltspite, but there's one Legendary Lords that no one could've seen coming, because she's an entirely original creation. Each lord looks like they will interact with the new roster in clever ways, as per the Tomb Kings DLC, while the army itself seems to be one of the most eclectic in the game. As discussed on the reveal stream, it's very heavily focused on gunpowder units - even more so than the Empire or Dwarfs. There is also a mechanic under which the Vampire Coast's shooting will get weaker with successive volleys, which should force a unique response from any opponent: baiting and screening shooting attacks with fodder units will be necessary. Like the Vampire Counts, the Coast does not lack for fodder of its own, and has plenty of unique monsters. But there's a distinct lack of cavalry and armoured heavy infantry - Depth Guard seem to be more damage-oriented.
