The Dead Duo - Mortal Empires Vampire Counts Campaign Part 17
5Welcome everyone to the Mortal Empires campaign for Total War: Warhammer 2. In this campaign I will be playing as Mannfred von Carstein of the Vampire Counts, seeking to spread unlife across the Old and New Worlds. This campaign is not going to be modded at all, not even quality of life or camera mods, as I'm looking for the pure vanilla experience here. A summary of important events and links to battles will be provided below.
In part 17 Vlad and Mannfred unite on the offensive, securing a pair of significant victories over the Dwarfs. First, the two move east out of the Vaults, pushing toward the West Border Prince territories. Helman Ghorst colonizes Mighdal Vongalbarak, securing a hole in our southern border, while Isabella and Kemmler maintain order in the east and north. As we see Dwarf armies move east, possibly to attack Ghorst or Isabella, Vlad and Mannfred decide to get their attention. Together the pair attack the settlement at Zvorak, defended by a full army under Burlok Halfhand. Confused by having to fight two armies at once, the Dwarf line collapses and is easily outflanked; victory comes without much cost. Our planned advance south to secure the port city of Myrmidens is delayed as Thorgrim moves back west to defend the settlement of Matorca. Mannfred and Vlad descend upon the small port, facing a somewhat stronger foe this time; the battle is not as clean as the last, but ends the same, with the Dawi dead and the settlement captured. We end the session there due to time constraints imposed by the holiday season, and hope all have had enjoyed whatever holidays they celebrate this year.
