Confederation of Other Warriors of Chaos- Among the best additions in Total War: Warhammer III- Update 2.1.0

The new update tweaked the rules in dominion battles so that they last longer!
Vortex Spells Rebalancing in Total War: Warhammer III- Update 2.1.0
Talons of the Night, Infernal Gateway, and other stationary vortex spells had too little counter-play. Hence, their wind-up durations are increased in update 2.1 for rebalancing the spells and giving players more time for responding to attacks.

Imperial Authority penalties received reductions in the new update. Although, this only applies to first losses! When you incur the second or third loss, the penalty is the same.
Regiments of Renown Units
