Drakenhof, Lair of the Vampire- GCCM (1 Year Anniversary!)
"Drakenhof Castle was the former capital of the province of Sylvania during the rule of its last Imperial Count, Otto von Drak. Though the town of Drakenhof is considered the original "official" capital of the province, nearly all the rulers of Sylvania, both living and undead, has made the Castle as their seat of power. This accursed citadel was where Vlad von Carstein began his reign of terror, and from which battlements he summoned his Undead army. It was home to generations of von Draks before Vlad came, and some say it is the home of Mannfred von Carstein to this day. Adventurers still seeking the towering castle out because of the treasure trove of occult lore rumored to be contained in its library. It is said that copies of all the great sorcerers’ works can be found there, shackled tight to shelves made from wood that bleeds scarlet in the candlelight, but no one who has sought them has ever returned." Warhammer Wiki [warhammerfantasy.wikia.com]
The map features both the city and the castle of Drakenhof. It includes 3 gates, with the middle one being the main entrance. Inside the city, the Crypts of the Drakenhof Templars, the Cursed Forest of the Strigany and the Castle Drakenhof can be located among others.The streets of Drakenhof is filled with sinister deeds, though always shrugged in a thick unholy fog. The living don’t stay long, and the dead don’t rest in Sylvania, and nowhere as much as here.
The map is a Siege map and can be found under the siege tab in custom battles.
I recommend using a wheather mod or fx mod to have a more ambient map, the new vampire vistas don’t feel like night imo
For the GCCM mod series 1-year anniversary, we are doing a giveaway event, where you can win DLC’s for Warhammer 2. You can read about it below.
The dread aristocracy of Castle Drakenhof has throughout the time hidden 5 unholy cups of Everlasting Blood within the decayed city. One of them is said to be kept in the Crypts of the Drakenhof Templars, while yet another is rumored to be residing within the Cursed Forest of the Strigany. As for the remaining 3 unholy cups of Everlasting Blood, accounts of their whereabouts have been lost, why only the most primal of vampiric beasts can find them in the darkest of nights.
