Only thing on my wishlist cheap enough this sale is : Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire - Obsidian Edition
AU$35.58 (so $25 USD) for the complete package. So including the 4x DLC, it's only $6 more than what they're charging for the base game.
Good time to pick it up now that the game is finally "finished".

You'll need 1 if you want to play the races from it. Look for my posts near the end of one of the TW Warhammer threads for more info.

They’re like a continuation of each other so I think you just start with 1 and keep piling on the dlc and sequel.

Went and looked those posts up.
Two different games, but if I just bought 2 w/o the DLC packs from 1, I'd be playing the newer game, but only with the 2nd round of races/DLC/etc?
Are the campaign modes comparable between the two games? Is it worth playing 1, or just buying 1 and playing everything in 2?
The campaigns between the two are different. 1 has a story type based campaign for 1's races (and its DLC races), 2 has the same (but different in design) for its specific races, and (if you own both) also a combined campaign with a larger map consisting of the races you have access to across both games. The DLC races you have bought are accessible in this combined campaign as well. This same concept is supposed to continue whenever 3 eventually comes out.
The difference between the story campaigns mostly comes about from 2's theme about the vortex thingy, and I think they play out quite differently. 1 is more the standard TW campaign, but with story elements.

The few games I've bought on steam or downloaded and actually play a lot I eventually had the accounts moved off steam for varying reasons like faster updates and such. I think it also leads to me getting crap recommendations cause all my play time isn't on steam.

I ended up buying Warhammer 1 and some DLC (Blood, Norsca, and King and the Warlord)
I have only had time to play an hour or so, but the game runs perfectly fine at 60 FPS ultra in 1440p on a 2500k and 1070 GTX.
It's confusing. So when you purchase 2, you do not need to purchase the Blood God DLC again it will work with 2, and as Dom said, there is this new epic campaign thing that lets you play this entirely new mode.
So far though I am having a lot of fun with 1. I have played other Total War games like Shogun 2 and Rome 2, etc - but this one I see myself playing a lot more due to the setting and the characters/armies and such. I started with Dwarves for a campaign because it was easy mode and I could learn, but I really want to try Norsca next so I can just go around the map destroying and razing everything in sight
I also watched this and it went over the beginning basics very well.

Chrono trigger is such a good game I can't see it NOT worth $7

It's a question of how good/clunky the port is. A lot of SNES era ports look like absolute garbage on PC.
