Yeah, though I think the redesign and resculpting in modern vibes may take a bit longer, I bet even by now they have already put some efforts into reintroducing “classic” factions
If choose only between the two new ones, I think atm Kislev is a miss for me. I personally think the design vibe is too realistic, lacking that intriguing combination of mythical and realistic elements in the broader scenes of WFB. The focus on bear is fine, but the way how they resolve it lacks of creativity, they can do something more like the elemental bear, snow leopard or streltsy (which is my favorite), or even dive into the Eastern European folklore and deconstruct it.
Cathay is the one yet to be seen, and I am interested to see the warhammer take of Far East cultures. Giant flying snakes and terracota army would be fine, but if it’s just that copy paste over a thousand of times, it’s gonna be too mythical and lame, on the other hand, limited on monks and kungfu fighters are also boring to me. Something akin to Sekiro* would be my taste.
Broadly speaking? It’s time for the first priest king and lord of Khemri to show people what imperishable means once again and I am ready to put Nagash‘s skull under the wheel of his chariot😜
