New DLC available for Total War: Attila
By Thomas McKinnon 27 March 2015 | Categories: newsAfter recently celebrating 15 years of the Total War franchise via one great video, some more good news is coming from developers Creative Assembly. Two new DLC packs are now available for Total War: Attila (review) – the Celts Culture Pack and then also Blood & Burning.
Blood & Burning is an interesting offer and brings some Game of Thrones action to the battlefield, including blood effects, decapitations, limb-lops and disembowelment – enough to make Daenerys Targaryen proud. Not enough for you? Well here’s some more, since soldiers in armies suffering from disease will vomit when idle on the battlefield and, we kid you not, there is also new burning and burn-to-death animations for both soldiers and civilians. It retails for $3 here.
If you have the stomach, check the video below.
The Celts Culture Pack adds the Picts, the Caledonians and the Ebdanians for either single or multiplayer campaign modes and custom and multiplayer battles. Certainly the biggest attraction is the units’ Guerrilla Deployment trait, enabling them to deploy almost anywhere on the battlefield – even behind enemy lines, handy if you can’t penetrate otherwise.
Buy the DLC and you get a new Celtic roster, Prestige Buildings, a new raiding building chain and Celtic generals’ skills trees. You also have access to unique Celtic-themed technologies, although a Guinness brewery is apparently not amongst them. It retails for $8 here.
