Total War Warhammer: Immortal Empires is a currently in Beta sandbox campaign taking place in The-World-That-Was, aka the world of Warhammer Fantasy Battles. It's most notable for being slow-as-fuck, rendering your computer as helpful as a Votann taking place across the entire known world, conspicuously including Ind and Khuresh on the map, but not populating them (for now).
Technically, all of the TWWH games have had a sandbox campaign that included all the factions released at the time, but Immortal Empires is the "most complete" one, not only including all the factions from WFB, but including the never-released-ones that were fleshed out for TWWH3.
The campaign is probably the closest you'll get to an official 9E WFB until The Old World is released, and probably cheaper than buying all those OOP models yourself.
The Map
End Game Scenarios
The problem with Mortal Empires was that after a while, it got boring to play. Sure, with so many races and subfactions to choose from, there was a lot of content to keep your Dorito-stained fingers on the keyboard, but because every campaign ultimately ended up being "survive the chaos invasion turn 80, then conquer all the other races", you were really starved for new experiences.
Enter the End Game Scenarios, special world events that kicked in after a certain number of turns, ripped off from better game makers Stellaris.
They are:
Factions and Tactics
For Tactics, we have a general overview here.

Future Content
Obviously, because it's a beta, they will work on patching the game to make it run better and hopefully address the Bloat caused by 270+ factions fighting-and-dying across the map, but also to add and incorporate the main-game DLCs (which will happen, both to flesh out existing factions more, and to provide a tithe to our masters at CA)
There is also the very obvious yet constantly denied possibility of Araby, Ind, Khuresh, and Nippon. None of these factions were ever fleshed out in the Euro-centric WFB, and yet the blank canvasses that appear on the map is quite enticing. It's very possible that CA doesnt want to touch these factions, especially because the more realistic Chaos Dwarfs still havent been officially announced, but one can hope that we get them.
