Total War: Warhammer Adds Mod Support
Changing its mind, Total War: Warhammer Creative Assembly has decided to add official mod and Steam Workshop support for the game. Furthermore, the team is already trying to help some modders so their creations are available when the game releases on PC on May 24.
Modders Magnar and Dresden are working with CA to create a Legendary Lord Start Position and Regional Occupation mods, respectively. Also, those who have attended the studio's mod summits over the past three years are getting early access to the title to create mods for launch.
The developer's Assembly Kit modding tool box is also included, and additional functionality such as battle-map editing will be added later in 2016.

Our Take
Are any readers out there going to tackle a mod for the game, given the good news?
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
