=Books= Unknown to many, Creative Assembly actually managed to publish books under the Total War: Warhammer title (Presumably to get more books out set in the classic warhammer fantasy setting since Games Workshop will most likely discontinue the fantasy series in favor of more Age Of Sigmar Books). '''The Emperor's Armies''' * A bunch of rereleased BL books that have to do with the empire and Ludwig Schwartzhelm saving Averland from political chaos while sinister forces try to claim the breadbasket of the empire for their own benefit. '''Prince of Altdorf''' * An completely original novella written to tie in with the release of the Old World Edition that's become pretty damn hard to find after release (scratch that. CA re-released it for free in [https://dashboard.totalwar.com/home Total War Access] as part of their Empire Update.). The story details Karl Franz's election as emperor and is also notable for ending with a cameo by a certain High Elven loremaster.... '''Lord Of Chaos''' * This book tells the story of how Archaon is created and how he and his bros go around collecting Chaos treasures and bringing death and destruction to the world. It's a collected version of the Archaon novels released for the Dark Gods Edition of the game. CA has also written several short stories on their website which introduce their original characters to the setting. Well written and short they are mostly prequels to the vortex campaign of Total War Warhammer 2. They were written by Black Library writer [[Andy Hall]] and CA writer Chris Gambold. You can also find them in Total War Access. '''The Peasant Knight''' * This one tells the story of Sir Geg of Wainfleet, a farmer’s son and one of the few Bretonnian peasants to be deemed worthy of knighthood, and the only one to ever drink from the Lady’s Grail to become a Grail Knight. It's a little too uplifting for Bretonnia and Geg never appears in the game itself, but it's a solid self-contained story. '''The Nocturne for Mousillon''' * A companion story to the Peasant Knight, it recaps the stories of various Dukes of Mousillon and how the land transformed from one of the best dukedoms of Bretonnia to the cursed land we all know and stay the hell away from. It's told in the form of a Tilean bard warning listeners about going to Mousillon in search of adventure but at the end he mentions that a Vampire Lord has taken the damned castle and tempts his patrons to go, making you wish they finally got around to making the Red Duke a playable Legendary Lord... '''The Forked Tongue''' * A (relatively) independent-thinking Skink Priest Yukannadoozat (get it?) gets tired of waiting for the Slaan of his city to wake up his fat-ass and decides to investigate what is disturbing the Vortex by himself with his trusty Kroxigor companion Tar-Grax. He eventually takes his findings to Mazdamundi-senpai. '''All Tunnels Lead to Skavenblight''' * The Skaven slave-scribe Sneek Scratchett of Clan Skurvy, seeing a solution to step-up his station (heh) helps Grey Seer Vulscreech resolve a dispute between the Skurvy Warlord and the Council of Thirteen. Includes a reference to everyone's favorite Grey Seer Thanquol, who is pulling the strings of Clan Skurvy and has a rivalry with Vulscreech, fueling hopes he eventually gets the LL treatment. '''The Mage and the Sorceress''' * Loremaster of Hoeth Talarin tries to convince Teclis to come back to Ulthuan at the behest of his brother, who wants him by his side in the coming war for the Vortex. Meanwhile, Dark Elf sorceress Felicion Heartkeeper tries to assassinate Morathi, the Mother of the Druchii herself. Yes, [[Fail|this goes as well as you guessed.]] Morathi also implies that while the rest of the Cult of Pleasure worships the Elven Goddess of Pleasure Atharti, she worships no other than Slaanesh itself, bringing back an important part of the character retconned away in later editions. This is reflected in-game by Morathi's faction spreading Chaos Corruption and having better diplomacy with Chaos factions. Also, has a scene were Morathi starts making out with a captured Felecion and implies she plans to turn her into her sex slave...yeah... '''The Epic Saga of Wulfrik the Sarl''' * Unlike the other stories this one is about an established character, recapping Wulfrik's triumph against the Chaos-Lord King Torgald before he even got his power-up from a regular demon-worshipping viking to an immortal demon-worshipping viking, with the framing device of a translated Norscan saga. '''The Siren of the Storm''' * Written solely by Andy Hall and released on [https://www.totalwar.com/blog/the-siren-of-the-storm-by-andy-hall Total War.com], this story is about CA-created Legendary Lord Cylostra Direfin and her emotional journey from the fat, wet corpse of an opera singer into a magical ghost-pirate, involving a pact with a certain god of the sea. '''Son of Kislev''' * A short story prologue to game 3’s “The Lost God” prologue campaign written by Andy Hall and released on Total War Access. Son of Kislev introduces Ungol Prince Yuri Barkov, the protagonist of said campaign and Katarin’s former lover before she took the throne. The story explains Kislev’s current status quo/modern lore, with the conflict between the Ice Court and Kolstatlyn’s supporters heating up leading to the latter to leave/be exiled from Kislev City. Katarin commands Yuri to head to Kislev’s northernmost outpost find Ursun and resolve the crisis assailing their realm. Unfortunately, the two lovers would [[God-Slayer|never see each other again]].
