Total War: Warhammer [official site] is so close now that I didn’t expect any more announcements that would catch my attention before release, but developers Creative Assembly have just announced that they’ll be including robust modding support for their fantasy battler.
Though it was announced previously that the title would not benefit from official mod and Workshop support, CA and Games Workshop have been working away on the paperwork to make this much-demanded fan feature a reality.
At launch, there’ll be full Steam Workshop support for browsing and managing mods, as access to the Assembly Kit used in previous Total War titles and “the Database Editor and BOB for modifying and exporting database tables and campaign start positions”. Further support, including battle map editing, is planned for later in the year.
