On the other hand, the gory enhancements this will add to my AAR screenies just sounds too good to pass up.....
Blood & Gore features new visual and sound effects including:

• New blood-spattered front end
• Graphics option for turning on/off blood
• Blood VFX on arrow/pilum/javelin impacts
• Blood VFX on rock/stone impacts
• Blood VFX on death animations
• Blood shader on death animations and attackers
• Decapitation on selected death animations
• Dismemberment on selected death animations
• Blood decals on terrain
• Sound effects for all blood animations

Additional Minimum System Requirement:
Note that the Unit Detail option in the graphics setting menu must be set to Medium or above in order for dismemberment effects to be seen. Blood effects will display at all settings.


You can turn it off. It costs as much as a pint of Guiness, so I don't see a reason not to get it.
