полагаю они вводят все таки морские бои
tl;dr вместо морских боев при столкновении кораблей будет "наземная битва" на острове/ковчеге - а не только авторесолв, как сейчас
И да, этот тип боев будет как апдейт для всех, ДЛС для него не обязательно

Does this mean you’re introducing naval battles?
No, we don’t currently have any plans to build a system that adds full naval battles to the game. This would be a vast undertaking and certainly beyond the scope of a DLC pack.
We do however have two new battle types which will be added to Total War: WARHAMMER II as part of the free update, which bring you an active alternative to auto-resolving naval encounters: Island battles and Black Ark battles.
When two armies meet in battle at sea, you can choose to autoresolve as usual, or fight the battle. If you choose the latter, all belligerents will disembark from their ships and fight on a nearby island.
The same is true of Black Arks. When attacking – or defending – a Black Ark at sea, a land battle will be fought on the vast rocky slopes and ledges of the Black Ark itself, surrounding by towering Dark Elf architecture.
