Editing Drachenfels (section)

==[[Total War: WARHAMMER]]==
Drachenfels is referenced in several random events in the game. He's active and up to his old shenanigans, but since the world is dealing with every faction getting active at once he's more of a footnote and doesn't even merit a rogue faction. His castle was added as a cosmetic feature on the map near [[Athel Loren]] (on the wrong side of the mountains, as some fans have noted) but isn't involved in any gameplay. He's unlikely to be added as an official character to the game either, since multi-race armies were not a thing available to players in Game 1, and he'd be a powerful bullshit thorn in the side of the [[Night Goblins]], [[Belegar Ironhammer]], and [[Wood Elves (Warhammer Fantasy)|WElfs]]. Arkhan is able to use all Tomb Kings and some Vampire Counts units though, so a Drachenfels expansion is theoretically possible. The Total Warhammer II Patch consists of the updated Heinrich Kemmler starting position, and the addition of the Bloodlines mechanic; the Liche Master arrives at Castle Drachenfels. TWWH3 allows you to field units from other factions with revamps to the Alliance mechanic, and rogue armies spawn all the time with mixed armies that are nods to old fluff.

Drachenfels himself does get a somewhat more direct reference in [[Cylostra Direfin]]'s epilogue which mentions her receiving an envoy of The Nameless, who seeks an alliance with her against Brettonia. The fact that this reference is both more direct and more prominent than the others has prompted speculation that The Nameless may be making an appearance in the third game.
