Blood effects can be accessed in their own settings menu, where you can fiddle about with precisely how much gore you want in your game. It's a fairly light DLC pack - but then, at £2.49 on the Epic Games Store, the price isn't too much to ask for an extra bit of sauce on top of your tactical maelstroms.

Ancient Greece is no exception, with the Blood & Glory DLC bringing in all sorts of gore and mutilation effects. Such random encounters go a long way and I love the way a lot of randomized events happen around the kingdom and how the decisions and politics play the role in the declaration of war.Whether it be The Old World or Late Antiquity, it's become a slightly disturbing trend for Total War games to add a blood-soaked expansion pack after release. There were some instances during the turn I found that a random clan had been hunting Griffin in our lands and because we destroyed the clan we were allowed to recruit lower griffins to the squads. Hence, the story of TROY can be played in a very unique way in addition to the amazing fantasy lore and beasts. Overall, the gameplay of Mythos has been enhanced but also requires players to play the game strategically and not lose the focus on building the empire and relationships around it. WIth addition to prayers and hectatombs that can be created for Gods, the overall gameplay in Mythos gives more of that Greek mythology vibe. That includes the Centaurs or Cyclops or even Minotaur which can be added to the squad. On top of that, each type of creature that has been humanized in the normal campaign gets an actual fantasy/mythic version during Mythos playthrough. After sending out the troops on expedition every few turns the player gets to make choices on what action to take and that can affect the final combat against the monsters. There is Cerberus, Leviathan, and Archgriffin. There are three monster expeditions available but only one expedition can be done during a playthrough. Mythos, as explained earlier, adds new monster expeditions that can be set by sending out a squad of strong troops.
