Their only hope is to reverse-engineer their steam-powered technology and bring metal mayhem to all the foes of the Pride.</blockquote>

Mentioned a few times by [[DarkGod]], likely to introduce Trolls as a playable race. The Kar'Haïb Dominion is said to be in the southern seas of the Far East. During a discussion on #tome in 2013, DarkGod mentioned troll pirates being a part of this campaign.

A campaign set on [[Tar'Eyal]], the continent south of Maj'Eyal. It is currently under development and is planned to be the next expansion to release. It will be a "half-campaign", the player will start on Tar'Eyal and it will replace the first half of the Age of Ascendancy campaign. It will feature the Great and Bountiful Undeath Empire and the Saupur Imperium as prominent factions.
