All four Legendary Lords provide their own unique bonuses in the game.
Beginning with Arkhan the Black, the would-be Liche King offers bonus diplomatic relations with Vampire Counts factions and regions under him will not be adversely affected by public order penalties that could be brought about by vampiric corruption. Arkhan the Black's heroes also receive melee attack and defense bonuses.
Next up is Grand Hierophant Khatep, and he improves casualty replenishment, dynasty research rate and faction-wide army movement. Recruiting Liche Priest heroes is also easier with Khatep.
High Queen Khalida provides a diplomatic relations bonus for all Tomb Kings factions as well as additional ammunition for ranged units. Khalida's units also gain poison attacks while she herself reduces corruption.
Last up is Settra the Imperishable, and the king of all Tomb Kings offers bonuses for growth and public order while also making construction a faster process. Settra also gives bonus armor to Skeleton Chariot and Tomb Guard units.
New campaign mechanics are also set to be added to "Total War: Warhammer II" by the DLC pack, including the search for the Books of Nagash.
Players may also stumble upon the Canopic Jars which, as developers have noted, are filled with arcane energy and can be used to unlock all kinds of things.
With the "Rise of the Tomb Kings" DLC pack's release just a little over a month away, "Total War: Warhammer II" players should be able to hear more about it soon.
