Can I Use a DLC for a Game That Requires Another Game to Function?
I have a question about Steam Family Sharing and using DLCs. I already own a DLC for a game, but this DLC requires another game to function. However, I do not own the required base game on my account. If someone in my family buys the required base game and shares it with me, will I be able to activate and use the DLC? Or do I need to purchase the required base game on my own account to use the DLC?

Specifically, the DLC I own is Total War: WARHAMMER II - Mortal Empires and I need to have both Total War: WARHAMMER II and Total War: WARHAMMER I.

This is very uncommon so the answer is likely to be specific to (im)mortal empires. Might be better to ask there too.

Additionally a lot of DLC for those games is free which causes additional problems as Valve does not allow free DLC to be shared.
