Be a good person
What did Wurrzag mean by this?
>>483053006Because the pond is not big enough and to make a Total War game you pretty much have to make two whole games so you could instead just make two entire games? The turn-based part could easily pass for a 4X game itself, and then there's the combat part that is essentially a separate RTS game. Trying to compete with Total War feels like a high risk - low reward type investment, so why bother?
Is it true that a faction's AI basically gets lobotmized when you make them a defensive or military ally??
>>483054445Planz beyond youz knowinz
>>483054660It sure feels like it
>>483054660True.
>>483054660Yes, they think you can somehow reinforce every one of their armies, so they force march into enemy territory.
>>483054660Yep, still there from WH2 despite everyone pointing out how bullshit it is. At least we have allied recruitment to make alliances somewhat worth it.
What war crimes have you committed today, Anons?
I think every faction needs a confed option/mechanic like beastmen/dwarfs have.
>>483054891I have come to terms with the fact that allies are useless sometimes I begin a siege I know that they will act before the ennemy faction I tell myself that they'll probably stop raiding and will come help me and here I see them going back to their cities because ???? They never want to reinforce you the little fuckers
>>483055528Yep, rule number 1 of all my campaignsYou cannot rely on the AII dont just mean friendly, sometimes you cant even rely on the AI giving you a good fight
Oxyotl campaign was boring. You have a lot of potential with the free teleports, but the lizardmen economy and slow recruitment dosen't really let you capitalize on it.Guess its time to finally play the new empire whore.
>>483055659Should I defend my capital with my full stacks ? nah better retreat to a random level 2 minor settlement... xD
Who should I play if I just want to kill rats?
>>483055528Its really beneficial to get allies in wh3.>Outposts grants decent garriosons. I remember that 3 units of lothern sea guards saving my ass.>allied unit recruiting gives you 4 more units to recruit in emergancies.>Taking over their armies is always great.Just dont trust them to actually follow their orders.
>>483056013With Tehenhuain you literally declare total skaven death with all your lizards bros
>>483055950To be fair, IRL people have chosen not to defend their capitals. The Austrians did it twice against Napoleon.However, its inexcusable when its their last settlement, or the AI cound bring 2 stacks to bear against you, but opts to send 1 against and the other to fuck knows where.And it makes zero sense for factions like orcs

So are there slayers wearing armor in SFO or not?
i stand apart
>>483057087no, retardit is important to do your own research before believing what twiggers have to say about anything
>>483056947I like the border provinces the best.Stirland, Ostland, Ostermark and Nordland in that order.They're way cooler than the rich provinces. Stirland is the best because they're the archnemesis of the vampfags, I like their aesthetics and the drepressing scottish lowlands geography vibe.
>>483056280nice post, thanks for sharing
>>483057813>they're doing the retard thing where they push into each other's shields because they're not actually getting poked by swords and spears and will present this as a case for the outdated theorysigh.
Why don't dragons rule ulthuan like they do in china?
>>483057940>outdated theoryqrd?
>>483058086Exactly what it sounds like.Old:>phalanx smashed into each other and pushedNew:>they kept some distance and tried to poke the other guy without getting poked
>>483058086There was this belief that greeks and also pike and shot armies literally pushed into each other.Obviously there would be physical contact but the theory would go that they did it on purpose and the formal theory on the greek (it was a 20th century theory) would say that greek armies would agree to meet up on a flat battlefield and literally push against each other like a rugby scrum purposefully not stabbing each other either with their spears or swords (I'm not making this up this was an actual theory) and push each other off the battlefield shake hands and go home.And then there's the 'push of pike' theory which says the same thing but with pikemen, that they would mash up against each other and stab each other to death and that's why casualties were so high. This would have happened but it's more of an absolute panic trampling rather than a military tactic.
Malus really does spend days being paranoid just to fall for the most fucking obvious and retarded trap aimed to kill him>Follow me my lord, there is something I have to show you here in the dark - Guy who malus has been suspecting of treason for like 15 charpters
>>483058313>>483058448lmao that's retarded. i wonder what archeological stuff we take for granted will be considered retarded in 100 years or so.
Lads, I wanna buy one of the LLs but I don't know which, sell me on your favorite (please)

>>483058681They shame warhammer readers over there, I can only talk about dotso n shiet over there
>>483058680buy based on the faction.
>>483058639I'm a big follower of the 'just apply common sense bro' school of thought which is mostly pioneered by lindybeige even though he's a british retard sperg.I think it mostly makes sense but at times it handwaves the extremely different mentalities that existed in the past that justify some outlandish things that might have happened then.
>>483058680creamapi and get all of them for free, helloooo?If you're aware of it and choose not to use it I don't care for your justification / reply.I'm putting this out here for you in case you're unaware.
>>483058847I'm more of an Empire player and I played some with Dwarf already back in TWWH2 but I could absolutely see myself playing Nurgle, I just wanna know which is more impactful
>>483059067Isn't that shit ban central? Saw someone talking about it in the Elden Ring DLC thread and everyone seemed scared of bans
>>483058892Just apply common sense bro makes sense but you have to temper that with what they actually had for knowledge at the time, which is usually what justifies "outlandish" beliefs. For instance, if you have no concept of germ theory and instead believe in the four temperaments, that's going to justify a lot of what people thought about personalities and personality disorders, even if it sounds absurd to modern day views.
>>483059067Pedophile alert
Sigmarxism calls him golgpride manlover
>>483059325Elden Ring is a souls permaonline game and you might get banned from the online game by the anticheat but not from steam.
>>483058680Don’t make the same mistake as me and buy all the lizardmen dlc and not even like playing as them
>>483059116>>483058680I second this>>483058847 all campaigns are great, all units are fun.That being said;Tamurkhan > Malakai >Elspeth. Tamurkhans campaign mechanics is the best in the game. Unique and makes sense for him. Malakai's is just quests battles activating buffs to units. And Elspeth is copy paste of Ikit's workshop.10/10 for Tamurkhan, 8/10 for Malakai/Elspeth.
>>483059331Yes exactly, people forget that people in the past were also people and would have done things in the way that seems most efficient to them through their point of view.
>>483059067>helloooo?why are creamapi users like this?
>>483059825I wanted to branch out a bit so if Tamurkhan is that good I'll give him a try
>>483059645If you want Taurox which is the only beastmeme worth playing you have to get OxyotlIf you want the funny shooting rats you have to get TehenhuainIf you want to get Markus... Lol
Hello, I would like for the next DLC to introduce slightly less powercreep than these previous DLC.Do you have any strong opinions on powercreep?
>>483059923Why are CA-paypigs so docile?
>>483059923because if you're giving money past the bare minimum to this company you're braindead and if you don't know about creamapi in the yotl 2024 you're braindead too
>>483058779so try /tg/ then?the Total War books I've been reading are either related to the Middle Ages or the Bronze Age, and /lit/'s history book thread is usually civil enough
>>483060097>>483060172You retards do realize that if absolutely no one gives them any money they don't have money to pay their employees and DLC development ceases, correct?
>>483060460smelly foul bait you can't be serious they're a multi million dollar company
The way Tehenhauin ruins is so goofy
>>483060575What game and its DLC is single handedly keeping CA a multi million dollar company you fucking retard?
>BEASTMEN RARO-ACK
>>483060636Anyone want to discuss how Tehenhauin is a decent warrior-spellcaster on the battlefield with powerful factionwide mechanics for the campaign map?
>>483060715not my problem paypiggie
what will it take for this thread to acknowledge the superiority of linemanii games over spearmanii ones?

Red duke, neferta and ghoul king will all be added in epic expansion of the vampire counts soon
>>483060802You will have nothing to pirate if no one buys the DLCs. Even you retards have to realize that.

>>483060976i genuinely don't give a shit if this company goes bankrupt they're low effort as fuck
>>483060987but linemanii games require higher iq than spearmanii games.
>>483060824all of the linemanii games suck except for the one that takes place in fucking nipland, who are you retards trying to gaslight? it's certainly not working

>>483064713Love these
>>483062261I would go with Alarielle
>>483064713If they build the shrine, declare war on them. That might get them to use the sword.

>>483061474>repeater rifles
I can win this, right bros? I didn't want to fight the Ogres but our greatest allies the dwarfs declared war on them and I'm duty bound to honor it.
>>483066090Perhaps.
>>483058448nah this isn't how greekoid warfare worked, there was basically no disciplined lines or formations until philip of macedon revolutionized things. bascially the 2 sides would run screaming into eachother as a way to calm their nerves and then they would tentatively stab and slash one another in a loose, jagged line until one side broke. this is also why the spartans were considered better than other greekoids (again, until philip) because they would advance slowly and silently and in a nice cohesive line. source: trust me bro (or go watch roel konninjedik videos on the topic)
>>483061484Map will look like long corridors
>>483066090looks like an easy win to me
>>483066090Shit, forgot image.
>>483062042>the Knights of MorrAren't they in game since TWW2 Empire big update ?
My cope hope is, CA is actually updating and refining Daniel as the "build your own tabletop model" faction. He will get an axtensive character creator of sort with colour pallets for every body piece and transmog feature.
>>483066313Ufff, the ogres shouldn't be a problem but the ghogers absolutely are, focus on these fuckers and you should be fine
>>483064847nah, Lindybeige is a big time proponent of tidy battlelines
The biggest counter to the Ogre Kingdoms is Little Grom.If you know, you know.
>>483066313>Rockets>No anti large>2 demis who might not be the anti-large versionJust offer them Allarielle + the demis meat they might be satisfied with that.
>>483066341I don't know if it's from my mods but they're Sylvania's (Rightful Stirlander Clay) Electoral troops.
>>483066671its actually snow leopards, they literally can't do anything against it
>>483066679Demis are unfortunately not the anti-large version, this was one of the only armies anywhere near the ogres and I just took the world's edge mountains off of the Greenskins so recruiting a new army would have taken too long. I'm thinking of kiting as many units as possible with Alarielle and taking them out with magic and hoping the Ironsides can heavily weaken whatever decides to go after the main army.
>Total War Rome>Rome is the strongest factionIdk what I expected
Tomb kings are such push oversThey're the easiest faction to destroy in the game
>>483060976i doubt there are enough creamapi users to bankrupt the company lmao

When is the fucking Pharaoh content drop?
>>483067450Next year.
>Total War: Pharaoh>Proto-Jews are the strongest factionExactly what I expected
>>483067273its what happens when their specialty is free shit units when the computer already doesnt pay anything for units and they randomly pick things for their army instead of using their good stuff.
>>483067595No, the Romans are the strongest faction in the game, too.
POST FOR IMPERIAL LOREFAGS ONLY ONLY READ IF YOU'RE AN IMPERIAL LOREFAG REALLY BORING POST NOT FIT FOR READING IF YOU AREN'T AN IMPERIAL LOREFAGI need help with naming conventions for imperial regiments because I can't find anything on it. I know for example that Kruber's regiment was the 8th Ostland Swordsmen, and there's a regiment called XIII Reikland, but most other regiments seem to have freehanded names like "Peepeepoopoo's Noun" etc.So what do you name your shit?Do you think only state trooper regiments are numbered (after their province) or that Militia regiments are also numbered? For example, an Altdorf regiment?

Never mind, not that bad. Since I had artillery and they didn't they had to advance, and they deployed one half of their army with Skrag on one side of the battlefield while the cavalry and hero charged me on the other side and got wiped. Then I harassed the other half with Alarielle and by the time they got to me, Skrag got wiped by the Nuln ironsides in a couple volleys and that was that. The unbreakable fuckers did more damage than I would have liked despite that.
>>483069501They arent playable though
>>483069521Rats are the dumbest and meanest animals when they're panicked, and they get panicked very easily.

>>483058892Common sense can fall apart when you are approaching it from the perspective of someone +120 years removed from the last time melee combat actually happened outside of knife fights. There is room for common sense, but it has to be used extremely cautiously given it's so quick to become arrogant "That looks silly to me therefore it didn't happen" and the dreaded "It was just ceremonial". If you showed someone born today in 20-30 years old hip shooting from the 1930s they'd think it's some hollywood bullshit, but it happened. https://www.luckygunner.com/lounge/why-was-hip-shooting-ever-a-thing/Pushing surely happened - because among the undisciplined (Spartans were supposed to be the only ones at first to walk to the enemy, not charge pell mell) you'd have people being pushing up front, and common sense shows us what happens with mosh pits or the korean stampede recently. It wasn't the only way, and I get tired of the history autists always being all or nothing. same shit happens with the linothorax vs spolas. It's literally all X or all Y, and I am pretty sure it's e-celeb jackoffs like Lindy who help perpetuate this pepsi vs coke atmosphere. And in terms of common sense, we can look to real life examples of masses of people being unable to stop themselves on a dime very easily with the Seoul halloween 'riot', stampedes of Muslims at Hajj, a recent pilgrimage stampede in Israel. Epy's Thebans were 50 men deep at Leuctra. There is no way that group just stops neat and tidy on a dime and 49 people stand patiently waiting for a turn and the Spartans draw back or break just because they see that many men back there and for each theban they kill another pops up.
>>483069631nvm i'm retarded sorry
Questions about the End Times expansion:How many lords will it include?Will it act as a separate campaign?Any updates for lords such as Malekith and Tyrion who changed dramatically in the End Times?A complete Chaos endgame event?What shall be the price?
>>483069836I agree wholeheartedly and I'm sorry if you got the impression that I was perpetuating the black or white narrative when I was trying to have some nuance. I was making the case that while it must have surely happened it's more of a things gone to shit or lack of discipline rather than an agreed upon affair or a military tactic like some said.
>>483070112The fuck do I know? Why are you asking me?
>>483069836>we can look to real life examples of masses of people being unable to stop themselves on a dime very easily with the Seoul halloween 'riot'unless you're White, activate your inner FAVSTIAN SPIRIT and rise above the Asiatic mob mentality (both figuratively and literally) towards safety
>>483061327can you really call a game where you just throw blobs of melee units at each other good? maybe it doesn't matter if you are an ar cheater, but I certainly won't be playing that kind of trash.

>play as the Empire>Skrag conquers a city from some elector cunt>Thorgrim conquers it from Skraq
>>483055703Oxyotl campaign is easy to fuck up your potential. Lizards have bad growths and bad econ coupled with dinos costing fuckloads and only being worth it as hero mounts. Your heroes start as some of the weakest heroes globally and level into some of the strongest globally once they get levels. They're the slow growth faction so don't dent your economy on high tiers. Moreover oxy quests force you to take less land with your main force which slows your growth further. You need to try to build a second chaff army of just saurumani, chameleon skinks and maybe some cheap javelins or your growth will feel too slow. Even then getting economy for that second army isnt that easy
>>483072310Get a mod to trade regions
>>483072310You don't need to hold all empire land check your conditions military allies count, defensive allies do not. Defensive alliances are only situational for vision, ai is too retarded and the only good function is request army moreover military allies give you cheaper allied recruitment.The amount of times I've been disappointed by ai not reinforcing me when they clearly could've is too damn high

Would you say that Taurox is a great melee combatant?
>>483054660No, it's not true. That's a rumor Legend started in his livestreams. There has never been anyone who has been able to unmod the debuff, which if it existed there would be people who do that to make the game easier. All that actually happens is AI is considered the Player for purposes of anti-player bias.
>>483072893no a generic lord kinda mogs him without the statline buffs.
>>483072286>skavenlmao. they barely beat bretonnia on the TT, and bretonnia had been neglected for years at that point. skaven have never been popular no matter how much ratfags pretend they are.
>>483066363Why would they? WH3 and Daniel were a huge success and as the ex-CA dev tell-all shows that's all they care about. Look at how they thought they could skimp on DLC just to put everyone on Total Star Wars.
>>483068085There's literally an entire book on this that Forgeworld published. Get it on Ebay.
>>483073349Brets and Tomb kings were literally dead factions, it wasnt until after 6th edition when GW made the setting embrace its fantasy elements that people started recognizing more fantastical armies. Skaven werent as popular as say, vampire counts or dark elves, but they were more of a player than the more historical factions.
>>483068814I just hope CA take legal action. Revealing the development practices of your game studio is like leaking trade secrets. They should put the muzzle on people like this.

>>483074370do they? I remember skimming it and read it as a diluted faith, where they worship the maw but through gork and mork.

>>483074705If you mean to say that it's a tyranid. You are wrong.

>>483070112Tyrion didn't change at all he just got the sword of Khaine and that's the extent of his buffs in ET.
>>483075140In AoS lore when the world was young gork and mork fused into a single being to wreck the world. They later split into the their base forms. It was so impressive to greenskins they still use gorkamorka as the equivalent of ultimate power.

LL for this feel?Do I just get the empire mod that gives then WW1/2 tech?
>>483092492Rither that or skaven but you might also have to like use the mod which pike makes their recruitment spread throughout the buildings rather than all at tier 5
>>483092604I mean I had that one downloaded, just turned off.And I always used https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2960723751 because it was dumb locking all the fun stuff behind T5.
>>483092836That's what I meant that one yea
>single province literally who shithole declares war on me>allies I've had for 30+ turns all break their alliance and side with the shithole
>>483093868it does feel kind of stupid that declining to join a war is grounds for breaking an alliance outrightshould be more of a nuanced thing like not upholding the terms of an alliance gives a fat, long lasting diplo penalty that will lead to alliance breaking if you don't make up for it by joining other wars later or otherwise supplicating them
>>483094240maybe it could knock you back down to defensive alliance with hefty penalties that prevent you from just going back up to military alliance, but military alliances are for the exact purpose of people joining you in war, if you refuse to join that should be worthy of it being broken in some form, otherwise people would just give them 50000 gold after refusing to join the war to fix it instantly. you shouldn't be able to get a military alliance's upsides while cheesing its downsides

I like seeing the cool fantasy units killing each other but I feel like I'm never gonna improve, I can only win when the auto-resolve thinks I can win, and I'm playing on NormalSFO though, dunno how much of an impact that has
>>483111221start simple and once you master that you can add a little more complexity. for example set up your army to have a solid front line, control group 1 lock formation, back line, control group 2 lock formation, and then have a group on either flank that you just spend the entire battle going back and for between them to counter threats and eventually go for the kill once their flankers are neutralized.
>>483111221SFO has a much different balance and flow from vanillafights between same tier units will take a lot longera higher tier unit, especially the ones that require unit capacity, will handily wipe lower tier units with few casualties though it might take some time while counters become more impactful in shifting this balance in either directionif you're new to the game in general it might be better to start vanilla than jumping straight into an overhaul especially one like SFO that shifts the general balance so much
>>483111221Literally just watch legend play. I mean, he’s not as good as me, but he’s good enough to learn from
>>483111843SFO's balance seems fucked at times. It's like they're expecting you to play with a full roster at all times, and early game that isn't feasible. Like I had one reiksguard knights and two empire knights lose to one crossbowmen and one swordsmen. Fighting downhill. Why? lol i dunno, I guess I didn't cycle charge constantly like an autist and expected cavalry was good against archers.
>>483103463Why is it always Koreans?
>>483112096lol? Are you retarded?
>>483112248I guess so. I couldn't believe it. I charged into them, and they lost the fight anyway. On vanilla you can trust them to handle tier 1 units, but on SFO I guess not.I like some of SFO's ideas, but a lot of ways it is like someone screaming "NO! YOU MUST PLAY THE GAME MY WAY!" Like mortars for instance. So inaccurate they're useless and have to be baby'd with area attack. Why? I guess someone wants you to play that way. Same with the knights. Why did I lose the engagement? Because I wasn't cycle charging constantly. Makes "sense" for shock cavalry, but seriously?
>>483112096infantry is generally much beefier and swordmen especially are a lot better at holding their ground than in vanillaknights have mediocre fighting stats so you need to keep them charging or else they'll lose because their base stats are fairly on par with swordmen besides armor but they'll lose out in the numbers game with more bodies swinging back per manthe charge bonus is important for keeping their killing power up and the disruption from the physical impact of their charge keeps the enemy unit in disarray and less able to hit back effectively while you either push through to the other side or pull out and set yourself up for another chargethe armor will help them last but they wont have the killing power to win out in a straight fight, its more to protect them from getting pulped by scratch damage during their charge
>>483112506>So inaccurate they're useless and have to be baby'd with area attack.they're shit and need ground targeting to be any good in vanilla too with how much the AI dodges artillery now
>>483111221Just watch Zerkovitch. He does themed campaigns and you can learn from watching them pretty well.Plus he's actually got a sense of humor, unlike legend.
>>483112820Again, the problem is SFO expects you to be at full roster at all times. The first five turns, what fucking option do I have other than mortars? Yes, they are shit, but in vanilla they were at least useful when enemy infantry was clumped up in a fight. I guess too useful because now if you order them to attack an enemy they'll attack your own troops instead.>OH BUT YOU SHOULD BE USINGWhat exactly? It's turn two. And why make an otherwise useful indirect fire weapon be so bad? It has a niche in vanilla and now it doesn't. Great 'balance'.
>>483113037>if you order them to attack an enemy they'll attack your own troops instead.not any different from vanilla since its the wonky targeting and massive aim cones they haveyou've always had to ground target mortars unless it was units of missile infantry far from any of your own units only now you can't use mortars for anything until they're engaged either blobbing on your frontline or shooting at your troops because they autododge the slow mortar shotsthat has its own uses if you plan around that movement manipulation though
>>483113470Mortar is fine on vanilla for basic artillery.>you've always had to ground target mortars unless it was units of missile infantry far from any of your own units only now you can't use mortars for anything until they're engaged either blobbing on your frontline or shooting at your troops because they autododge the slow mortar shotsWorks on my machine, just target an enemy already engaged - like with cavalry. They don't autododge when distracted.
>>483113694>just target an enemy already engagedyou mean that thing I said
>>483113812No, you said ground target. That's completely unnecessary.
>>483113842>you can't use mortars for anything until they're engaged
>>483113959>oh no, I have to move my cavalry forward in order to engage their archers
>>483112506Empire Knights can barely pull their weight in vanilla when you're constantly cycle charging so I'm not sure what you expect. Most Empire cavalry is ass unless its used in specific circumstances or against certain counters like Reiksguard getting buffed by Franz or Knights of the Blazing Sun against stuff weak to fire. Those new Knights of the Black Rose are strong but half of that is because they wont die until they reach half health with the landmark so they're obnoxious if you keep a life mage handy. Demis are good but that's not until tier four and they really want a life mage.Could be worse. Could be Cold Ones.
>>483114716>mortars bad because they shoot my own troops>just ground attack blobs or target missile units that aren't near your troops and wont dodge when they start firing>but what if I put my cavalry in them then they wont dodge when I shoot them and my cavalry at the same timemake up your mind
>>483114852>Most Empire cavalry is ass...except here's why their cavalry is really good
>>483111868legend will only teach you how to abuse the ai and make retarded meme stacks. if you want to get better you should start playing mp or at least play equal value matches against the computer.
>>483115118>mp
>>483115007No, you should play the game. You approach with cavalry, get a few mortar shots off, by the time you charge their infantry are approaching yours, retarget to their infantry.In SFO, mortars will almost always hit your line instead of the enemy's. Not a problem in vanilla. They took a weak early game unit and made it worse for no reason.>>483114852Empire knights consistently win cavalry engagements in vanilla. They're not Reiksguard, which can be trusted to win cavalry battles on their own, so I usually pair them up and replace them later. Another "works on my machine".You can tell the morons who call units shit are probably multiplayer. These are early game units with a purpose, and yet mysteriously they don't in SFO because uhhhhhhh why aren't you using something else on turn 2?
>>483115025Franz can buff Reiksguard so they can pull their weight and fight cavalry but outside of his army they're just slightly less bad Empire Knights. Having Knights of the Blazing Sun sitting in your army hoping there's going to be an enemy weak to fire is silly. Less so if you keep a bright wizard around constantly casting to keep that flammable debuff up and with the new upgrade from their chapterhouse but they're still dependent on cycle charging. The only no frills melee cavalry Empire has is those new Knights of the Black Rose that need an insane buff to be competitive against other options.
I just make canon armies and play the fucking game instead of minmaxing everything and crying like a sperg.
>>483115338If only the Empire had a massive enemy right next to them with regeneration that fire damage is incredibly effective against...
ai dodging artillery is cheating because humans don't do it. it's basically like input reading in fighting games.
>>483115308>when I target units running into my infantry the mortars compensate for travel time and fire very close to the frontline sometimes hitting my own units>this NEVER EVER happens in vanillawhatever you say
>>483114852empire knights are incredible and always reliable. i can always use them to drive off enemy cavalry or things like wolves, then they can handle pretty much any ranged unit in the game. shit stacks of orcs with arrer boys would be much more difficult to deal with without knights. i play battles without ai cheats though so melee units arent unbalanced
>>483115482Vampire Counts barely have any units that Knights of the Blazing Sun are specifically a counter against because of their fire attacks. Only a handful of units natively have regeneration that gives them fire weakness and those targets are obliterated by crossbows much less handguns. Besides that its just lords and heroes that a unit of knights isn't good at fighting. Bullying Vlad because he's a mountless cuck is funny though.>>483115308>Empire knights consistently win cavalry engagements in vanilla.If they're cycle charging against light units maybe.
>>483115792If you want to be really picky you could technically use Pistoliers to the same effect but with less losses because they don't need to be in melee to deal damage while being at close range to fire makes missile units try and run anyway. Its a cancerous amount of micro for more than a couple units of that though.
>>483115948>If they're cycle charging against light units maybeNope! Straight up fights! You can't cycle charge 1v1 cavalry fights, they'll just chase you.Do you play the game outside of MP?
>>483116601pistoleers dont do very much and get shredded by ranged units. i find they can only sort of scout the enemy and be a distraction. but knights can engage and route the enemy backline very quickly then come back to the infantry melee and roll up the line. Also knights are very durable and can hold a flank on their own if needed (and take losses). you can also use them to support infantry that are fighting monsters, when things like ogres just walk through your spearmen you can mass block with knights by charging the ogres through your spearmen. grenade launcher outriders are good though, and the bordermen just feel like cheating when they delete chaos warriors
>>483115948>Only a handful of units natively have regenerationYeah, and they're almost always tier III - IV units, aka exactly when you're unlocking Knights of the Blazing Sun and what you'd want them to counter. I'm not going to claim they're the best cavalry in the game but come on, you have to admit it's pretty absurd to say "what exactly is fire damage going to be useful against as the Empire" when at the very least Karl and Elsepth are sitting right next to Vlad and his inevitable doomstacks. Reiksguard I've never had an issue. Yeah they're held back by being non-AP in an AP powercreep game but their pretty damn great charge bonus makes them a very effective hammer and anvil cav and I've never had to only use them against light infantry, no idea what you're talking about there. As you said Knights of the Black Rose is strong, and I think you're really underplaying how strong they are. Then obviously demis are great. So no, I don't think I can agree with your conclusion that Empire cav is "ass."
>>483116867Pistoleers are really for provoking. Higher leveled Pistoleers are somehow beasts against monsters due to high accuracy and all those bullets having very few targets to hit.
also wanted to add that lately i have been preferring war wagons over pistoleers
>non-american hours>zero ratfaggotry, pornspam, derailing>actually just varied discussion on gameplayHuh.Maybe it is us.
>>483116624I've never played a game of multiplayer I just really doubt your dubious claims on their performance because they have always been regarded as a unit you skip over because early on, the only time you would consider them, they're outperformed by taking more contingents of crossbowmen and handgunners with spearmen to cover them.
>>483111221Just download AI general mod and manual control the units you want to micromanage.
>>483117219I will agree they are no late game unit, but you shouldn't dismiss any Empire unit as "skip over". Everything has their place and time. Like recently I had some success with FCM just as something to watch the flanks. Replace with gunners later. Simple as.
>>483117018Just last night Euros were spamming every possible porn you can imagine, wtf are you talking about
Okay, we've exceeded our "productive" discussion.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ph1gxgfJZHEhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zL2XuUCPkt4Tell me what I thought about this.
>>483117421I looked through the last 5 threads for porn just before (for a reaction pic I was making), and didn't see shit.Had to go to damn rule34.
>>483117595Nothingburger memeblog whatever cuh
>>483115497>humans don't do itI do it everytime. Especialy aainst mortars. WHen you pressdown space, it shows you the aim of enemy artillery and you can easily dodge slow arty fire by just moving.
>>483116964They're good to bring against Tomb Kings because everything in that roster is weak to fire but the only things natively weak to fire in the Vampire Counts roster are Corpse Carts and Crypt Horrors which cavalry isn't an effective answer to. Besides units with fire weakness the effect of fire damage is fairly minimal because the AI is too stupid to use healing properly outside of keeping single entities alive and even then its dubious whether it will try. Fire damage just doesn't do very much in this game which is the fault of flaming attacks in the tabletop game not doing much besides cancelling regeneration effects and probably a little bit of MPfag meddling.
>>483117018I'm a burger my sleep schedule is just horribly fucked up because I'm coming off a sinus infection so I've been sleeping it off.I also spend most burger hours playing instead of talking here since 90% of the time its just inane shitposting.
How can anyone play total war games and not try to make historical / canon larp armies it boggles my mind that 'people' will make full armies of greatswords and see nothing wrong with that Or not making legions in rome
>>483118178>Or not making legions in romewut explain
>>483118293Like you know instead of making a legion making whole armies of parthian bowmen or whatever the fuckI got really autistic in rome making my legions with their cohorts and shit
>>483118178it starts to lose its luster when you see the AI doing it to you and they spam more armies than you can because of their programmed cheatsits fun for early game when you can get away with it
>>483118470>making whole armies of parthian bowmenMetafags deserve the rope.
>>483117682Varghulfs also have regeneration. I believe Terrorgheists do as well. As for Crypt Horrors and Varghulfs, I just did a test and Knights of the Blazing Sun absolutely demolish them when properly cycle charged.
best historical title that doesn't feel like it was made 20 years ago? Which to me means anything from Shogun 2 and forward
>>483118796It's either FOTS or Attila. Rome 2 is ass, 3 Kangdoms and Troy are fantasy, Thrones is just boring, and Pharaoh is currently half a game.
>>483118929>FOTS or AttilaWhat are their strong points compared to one another? Doesn't Shogun 2 have very little roster variation?
>>483117421What porn? Post links
>>483118796Rome 2. The faggot saying it's ass is coping hard.
>>483118725Varghulfs have been reduced to only having the hunger because of MPniggers which doesn't confer fire weakness. Its just that its better to have crossbows pincushion either since they have bad armor than have a dedicated cavalry counter that needs them to not be wading in a blob of infantry to be able to take it down and make use of those counter properties.
>>483119263>Varghulfs have been reduced to only having the hunger because of MPniggers which doesn't confer fire weakness.I hate MP niggers so much. It's still in their tooltip as a pro and since it regenerates health in battle I didn't even think to check.
>>483119169Wouldn't you like to know faggot.
>>483119056Attila is basically an improved Rome 2 with a God tier theme: the world is ending as per the Christian apocalypse and you have to suffer through the Four Horsemen of War (first quarter of game), Famine (Second), Plague (Third), and finally Death through a mini-ice age. Rather than the previous attempt at the era, Rome 1 Barbarian Invasion, there is an explicit reason why the Barbarians need to invade Rome (north is becoming uninhabitable, move to Spain or starve) and both the WRE and ERE feel like they're facing insurmountable odds. It's simply the peak of nu-TW.Shogun 2 FOTS follows up the great mechanically but lackluster diversity of Shogun 2's combat mechanics and breathes new life with both modern 19th century units as well as traditional units. Where as normally linemanii and samuraimanii by themselves are dull, together they're great. You'll need to master both ideally, but can go either way. Also naval bombardment is great. I would argue this is the best TW game period, and it's a shame we didn't get Medieval 3 afterwards because the mechanics for that were right here.
>greasus getting a new mount as flc with the ogre rework
>>483119581They hand wave it because its still a form of "regeneration" but it makes the Varghulf a lot worse than it used to be. The point of the fucking thing was that its a hard hitting monster than can work independently of mage support if you need it to and the regeneration means you have to put effort into taking it down.
>>483119859Problem is the "regeneration" pro in its tooltip specifically says this confers a weakness to fire when you hover over it, which is now an outright lie. Thanks MPnigs.
>>483119751How badly do I need to do the Britannia shader transfer thing to be able to play Attila properly? Your description of it sounds really promisingAlso yeah, real shame about Medieval 3, it'll probably never be realised in the quality it would if it came shortly after FOTS. CA is too entrenched into fantasy and mana and similar stuff to be able to do a faithful and fully historical Medieval 3. It's coming for sure but I'm not very hopeful on it
>>483120003I don't know. I don't need it, but for certain systems Attilia's optimization is shit. You'll probably need to do some tinkering in all likelihood.
>>483120175Any idea if I'll be able to run it without issues if I can run TWWH3 well? I'm very autistic about performance, probably a bad mix with also enjoying CA games
>>483120003He makes it sounds interesting with muh theming but really what it comes down to is an absurd number of minor settlement battles, your economy only being in the toilet because CA added upkeep to Christian churches and slapped them everywhere which makes the ideal strategy to just convert back to paganism, and your tech actively making you worse by removing certain buildings and upgrading some of your units to shittier ones. Barbarian Invasion uninronically does a better job at simulating why the WRE was in the shitter despite him putting it down.
>>483120250Warhammer 3 has better optimization. Attila is sort of a special case, although I can run it fine. I probably couldn't if I changed hardware.
>>483120289>minor settlement battles90% of my time in Total War is with Warhammer so I'm not exactly very sad over not many siege battles
>>483119749That artist should just be homo. Their lizardwomen look gross
>>483120289>your economy only being in the toilet because CA added upkeep to Christian churches and slapped them everywhere which makes the ideal strategy to just convert back to paganismThis isn't true. You'll need to delete anything that costs maint in the first few turns, but you can build them back up when your economy is in a better position.
>>483120425What lizardwomen?
>>483120373You will be sick of minor settlement battles when you've abused the AI lumping together on your limitanei and rear charging them with scout equites for the umpteenth time, trust me. The novelty of nice cav charges quickly disappears with how repetitive and ultimately unsatisfying it is.
>>483120250Atilla runs like ass but if you can run a later title you can probably run it fine. Just don't go necessarily expecting the same high and stable frame rates you were getting before. You might have to settle for a lower frame rate but it will be stable, most of the time anyway. CA doesn't feel like going back to give it the same touch ups and optimization they gave to Rome 2 because fuck you.
How's 3K? I played it when it came out, heard they abruptly stopped DLC, only DLC I heard of wasn't even in the 3K period lol
>>483120425You do know that they're boys... right?
>>483120814>only DLC I heard of wasn't even in the 3K period lolG8 b8, m8. I r8 8/8!
>>483121092What? That's what I heard
>>483120814trash in my opinion from the 100 odd hours I played at launchthere's a couple of neat ideas they buried under dozens of stupid onesalmost comically unbalanced and though I heard they made it better later the way unit stats are laid out makes me question if they really fixed anything or if its just cope from anyone still playingmost of the good things have been brought forward or improved upon in newer games
>>483120814YOU HAVE INSULTED ONE BILLION PEOPLE, WE DEMAND YOU APOLOGIZE
>>483121165>most of the good things have been brought forward or improved upon in newer gamesAh yeah, newer games like... Warhammer, Troy and Pharaoh? Is there even anything else?
>>483120478Yeah, except that's not historical and blatantly absurd. Blowing up a few churches would not fix the WRE's financial problems. That's why I said Barbarian Invasion unironically does a better job simulating it. Squalor out the ass (which more substantially affects public order in Rome 1), underdevelopment of cities, and shit generals starting with terrible traits that drastically decrease the money you get since they siphon it to their own pockets. All substantially more realistic and also harder to deal with than "lol every Christian church costs -400 upkeep for some bizarre reason." That's not even going to get into the fact that I think Barbarian Invasion represents the state of the Roman army in the late Empire better than Attila does.
>>483121146You're either rage b8ing or you don't know how to use Wikipedia. Stop being retarded.
>>483121346Well you're right in that I didn't make a precursory search before asking about it here yeah
>>483121248they did bring stuff from 3K forward into those three gamesquick deal and auto balance in diplo is from 3Kitems and ancillaries being in a proper list you can stroll through to see how much of what you have instead of the vague lists we used to havelittle things but things first tested in 3K regardlessprobably some more aspects that I can't think of because its been years and I haven't played troy or pharaoh myself to be able to get the details memorized
>>483120983Liggers, you'll never have babies with Lizardmen. They're sterile at least, prob even sexless.
>>483121294Building maintenance is a very minor issue in attila unlike the insane corruption. Pretty sure just dismantling everything wasn't very effective in the past before CA added a cap on corruption.
>>483122527Yeah. You just delete the churches to get things under control, not to magically turn your economy around.
>>483122527>>483122730I literally just checked. Your building maintenance is fucking 6550 at the start of the campaign. With 5910 profit at the start of the game, demolishing every church puts you at above 10k. It literally turns your economy around. By any metric it being as simple as demolishing churches to get over 10k a turn is fucking stupid.
>>483121762Two boys can't have kids
>>483123176You need to delete an army to get that, don't lie.
Winnable? (vh/vh)
>>483117662while you are controlling your entire army? if it's so easy how come tryhards like turin don't do it?>>483118493why give the ai cheats if it's only going to force you to play in a way that's less fun? are you afraid the thread will make fun of you for not playing on legendary?
>>483123235No, you don't. Are you incapable of doing math?
>>483123402the AI has cheats on every difficulty because it isn't smart enough to play the game
>>483123445You've deleted an army.
>>483123358I don't see why not.
>>483123618No, I haven't. I'll pull up the default army list for another screenshot and you can also start a new game so you can stop being a faggot.
fall of the samurai is the best historical game because it lets you mow down low iq meleecucks with gatling guns
>>483117421It's a pleasure to serve is Warhammer porn kino. Absolutely nut-tastic
>>483123684There are only, like, three churches at the game start. That's only 1200 maint. You've deleted an army in order to get your army upkeep that low.As said, corruption is the far bigger factor and it eats into your profits.
>>483123502according to that dev whine they could make it smarter but then legend wouldn't be able to cheese it
>>483123402>while you are controlling your entire army?AI arty just locks on to one of your units. I just charge my units in formation while dodgeing with targeted units. Idk why MPniggers wont do that. Its probably "cheating" in their retarded minds.
>>483123445>income 22kDamn, never noticed the effect of the lower corruption that much.>>483123814There should be noticeably more.
Hm, over 10k and all seven starting armies. Very interesting.>>483123814There are 20 churches that I just counted at the start of the game, counting minor settlements which also take upkeep, how long are you going to keep lying faggot?
>>483123756Just shows how retarded the AI is, that one is winnable.
>>483123952One thing I will say about SFO is the AI is somehow smarter, or at least more proactive. It'll actually peel off more than just cavalry for its flanks.
>>483123952theoretically I can see how you could make the AI smarter but since we've seen examples of how these devs play the game I highly doubt they're mentally capable of making anything that would really be smarterI don't count infinitely right clicking to make a unit push three models through a gap in order to have a unit of archers tied up or the shenanigans they do putting wolves in a 2 model wide column to slip through a gap as smarterthe core of the problem is that they can't get the AI to build its regions properly so its never going to have a good economy or a good recruiting base organically so it cheats itself extra income and is told to build a select few recruitment buildings that it spams the power units from among its other cheats for public order and upkeep etc.
fire wain wockets!
>>483123952NTA, but smarter AI doesnt mean fun AI.The biggest problem with the launch of IE was AI was being "smart" and never engaging with your armies, just sacking your undefended settlements, manageing to stay just outside your movement range etc.These are all "smart" moves by AI. But everyone rightly hated it. Best way to make AI engaging is give them lots of gold/growth/exp cheats on the campaign and make them aggressive. Battle AI tho should be vicious on the vh difficulty. AI Greenskins already a fucking manace on the field. If CA can make AI ranged units a little bit smarter and make AI use their spells a bit more effectively it would be enough.Siege AI is another matter entirely. There is no fixing that. Its going to be either braindead or cancer to fight against. And im content with the current siege AI.
>>483123358What level is Zhatan da braj ? You don't have any range damage but you do have so many halbadiers that you might be able to kill the lords if you can even catch them
>>483124741lvl 14
>>483125454I think it's winnable even though I can't see the second army but you have to protect your lord and archers the yin yang bonus will be crucial

>>483061484This would make for an amazing DLC, what do you guys think?
>>483126750It's never happenning but I'd love to have more campaigns would be pretty cool with a bit of scenario added in
Did they fix the dwarftide? I played a tamurkhan campaign back when dlc released and all i fought were endless dwarf doomstacks. Ungrim had 20 settlements and thorgrim had 30. By the time i dealt with them and got through the mountains i was so burnt out i simply quit the game for a month
Anyone still play cathay here?
>>483127654yes
>>483127667i c
>>483127654No. The region is too boring. I'm waiting till Monkey King.
>>483119263varghulf and terrogheists being shit is because CA didnt know how to translate single entity monsters from 2 to 3. They have always been shit regardless of what the MP scene looked like in game 3.
>>483128076Are 2 and 3 even sufficiently different that single units would be ruined in the transition? I never really saw them as that different, but I'm not exactly savvy on the games
>>483127654Of course.
>>483128238Its really a numbers thing, I dont have the math on hand exactly or the exact explanation for it but the weapon strength from game 2 stayed the same over in 3 while armor values and other defensive stuff also contributes to big monsters just not performing ideally. Splash attacks is also another real big deal that didn't get changed at all.
Did Tzeentch get a replenishment hero?
What are the LLs that are currently just completely fucked, neglected or overshadowed? I feel like any Beastmen LL that isn't Taurox is severely mogged by himI'm guessing Skarsnik's whole deal is also overshadowed by Grom
>>483128604while armor values and other defensive stuff got buffed which also-* Im tired.
>>483128619Iridecent horror heroes.

>>483127654>stillNever played cathay
>>483129320yeah, just pointing out how shit vanilla is.
>>483129320LL for this feel?
>>483129320God bless SFO
>>483129849Only when monkey king is added for Cathay
there’s people ITT playing on normal with no AI cheats, and they’re discussing strategy and tactics like their opinion matters. somebody get a hose
>>483130297quote them. only women bitch about someone without mentioning them by name.
Does anyone know if Legend is streaming tonight?
>>483129320Why is he so pointy
>>483130484>Legend is
>>483127303I just walked right past the dwarfs and took Nuln after spending most of my campaign in the east. I guess I might go back to that campaign sometime and actually fight the dwarfs. I’d think that a bunch of rot flies would be good, chosen with shields would beat their infantry and tank their missiles, idk people hate fighting dwarfs so much, it’s not that hard. It’s nice not having to worry about magic, bombardments, or summons.
I bought 3 but I'm still on 2 because I'm too lazy to install the modsLLs for this feel (in mortal empires)
>>483130372see>>483115792they’re talking about using sub optimal units and arguing certain units are underrated when obviously anything, even shitty empire knights are usable on normal without cheats. Literally anything works on that difficulty so why even discuss strategy? Worthless opinions
>>483131056you sound like you're about to shill some nonsense legend archer shitstacks
>>483130670legend is himmler
>>483131164t1 missile units are generally the best price/performance balance of power that exist in the gamei can understand that someone who plays on easy wouldn't necessarily know that
>>483131408yeah, i thought so. you're been desperately shouting this into the ether for threads now as if anyone takes your legend deepthroating seriously. isn't that sad? i don't think you've even been mocked for the most part, people just ignore you when you mention muh price/performance.
>>483131539take your meds schizo, just because something is common knowledge doesn't mean it's all one person
>empire archer spammer is back Fuck off
>>483131619this isn't you faggot? https://arch.b4k.co/vg/thread/482686185/#q482780462
>>483131743im literally not even the person you've been sperging out at ITT up until that post, let alone any posts from past generalsi just assumed it was common knowledge here that t1 missiles are the best units in the game? there's a reason everyone starts with blue horrors, empire archers, dark shards etcor is this general full of shitters who don't use max AI cheats?
>>483131018Karl Franz for the end turn simulator experience
>>483131321Oi no need to discredit himmler that much.
>>483132042I play empire with all the counts vassalized and then I declare war on everything around me and play at putting out fires so no sitting around waiting for confed because I don't confed
One of my perfect updates would be getting a certain amount of points to create your own starting army and choose your own starting hero.
>>483131976that's your fucking post, faggot. if not jesus christ there's 3 of you parroting the same fucking nonsense of bitching at people playing and doing well at the game at higher difficulties with anything other than fucking archer shitstacks. reminds me of the meltdown someone had at someone saying they use free company militia
>>483132259holy shit relax autistno one is mad that you aren't using archers, its a SP game of limited difficulty, use whatever you want, but technically, t1 missile units and heavy micro is the objectively best army comp to start withyou're mad and projecting that onto other people who are just trying to help you out with suggestions on how to play better
>>483119751This meme is from better timesAlas total weed generalThe post quality has gone down in /vg/Like rain on the mountain
>>483131018>>483132171Kroq-Gar then.Just chill with saurusmanii, blasting niggers only coming in two ways.
>>483132445who am i mad at? i'm not the guy who plays with empire knights so i have no investment in whether it's the greatest unit or not. but i'm absolutely sure that you could use it very effectively even on vh and that makes people mald enough to post into the ether as the original guy did because apparently you should be using unfun ranged shitstacks every playthrough as every faction.
>>483132627ranged units are fun
>>483132627>you vill shoot ze enemies>you vill avoid all ze melee>and you vill like it
>>483132529I don't think I've touched the stupid fucking lizards since I played the game for the first timeDoes anyone actually like or play Lustria at all?
>>483132862You can play harkon in lustria and the yin-yin mod plays there too.
>>483132994once you finish off the rebels as harkon you should head straight to Ulthaun
>>483133061But I don't want lizards on my border
>>483132798entire armies of fucking archers is not fun. doing it every goddamn playthrough is especially not fun. all the original guy could do was seethe about someone actually discussing the merits of different units rather than playing the same fucking game every time by accusing him of playing on normal.
I wish Lustria and Ulthuan didn't exist whatsoever, both in the lore and in the game
>>483133268chink detected
>>483132862>stupid fucking lizards
>>483133165entire armies of archers is fun to me
Cathay should be shouldn't exists the way it does now. It should be a colony of the empire.
New tomorow and update after tomorow ?
>>483133550shitstack empire archers is fun to you? entire stacks of archers from other factions where their archers fucking suck is fun to you? you gotta still be deep in the legend wh2 cheese days to find that shit fun after other unit types because more viable in wh3. either way, that'd be fine if there didn't seem to be a guy every other thread who gets really upset at people mentioning other units. like i said, it happened with fcm and pistoliers a few threads back and now it's happening with cavalry.
>>483133317Am I supposed to feign interest in not!america just to pretendI like the humans and chaos and the greenskins, the skaven and the vampires and dwarfs but why the fuck should I care about 'america but it's lizards wow' or the literal lotr elves of Ulthuan who live in the bermuda triangle or whateverAt least the wood elves have Kerillian who makes my dick rock hard with her pale rosy ears and obsidian eyes
>>483133706Update tomorrow after tomorrow and news the tomorrow after tomorrow after tomorrow.>>483133550>>483133732Empire Archers are really shit, they make Skavenslave Slingers feel like gods in comparison because the Skavenslaves are at least cheap. Bretonnian and Cathayan Peasant Archers are so much better it's not even funny.
>>483133732blue horrors, darkshards, empire archers, helf archers are all I recruit in those respective campaigns for the first 20 turns, not counting artillery and heroes of course
>>483133665Isnt that what gelt is up to in 3
>>483132862I decided to play a Lustria campaign the other day and I remembered why I hate LustriaFuck liggers, most overpowered antifun bullshit faction in the game
>>483133919Yeah but it should literally be part of the lore. You're not telling me Miao Ying and Yin Yin didn't immediately betray Cathay the second they saw a white man. That's just impossible. We all know Asian pussy craves white dick.
I'LL HAVE THIS WORLD
>>483134230She wouldn't do that if it was a white man in front of her.
>>483133165He was literally playing on normal, I even gave you proof. Are you done throwing a tantrum? I came back to this thread an hour later to see you sperging out and schizo posting. Very entertaining
>>483133896sounds fucking lame and boring. you've probably been doing that since wh2 which is funny because l/vh doesn't even require you to do ranged spam in wh3 anymore. you've just got stockholm syndrome my dude. add some pistoliers to your armies. play volkmar and actually use his recommended fcm, empire knights and flagellants army that he buffs. you'd be surprised at how fun it is and how good those units perform even on l/vh.
>>483134670When the time is right I will gut all of you in full view of your simpering armies. This is my only answer, mortal.
This is the shit this faggot keeps spamming. Nothing to do with Total War, it's a FOTM girl band anime that this guy is obsessed with posting in a Total War general.
>>483135914No worse than the mermaidcel or the subhumans who post rats to be quite honest.
I'm still struggling with greenskins economy. I'm in the red, so I have to be constantly fighting, but this means I get spread too thin. I'm constantly doing ok, then suddenly my upkeep spikes and there's not enough armies I can immediately fight to keep up with it.
>simpering southerner babble
>>483136030Nothing is worse than ratfags so that's an unfair comparison. I would disagree on Madison, she's actually frequently on-topic.
>>483135914>>483135506>>483134230>>483136316K-on is the only good band anime. All others are mere pretenders.
So when TW40K comes out, ehat races are (You) absolutely NOT interested in and wouldn't buy if they were DLC?For me it's T'au and Genestraler cults. Just don't give a shit about them.
>>483136746>ehat races are (You) absolutely NOT interested in and wouldn't buy if they were DLC?Space Wolves, Craftworld Eldar, Tyranids, Necrons and Leagues of Votann.
>>483136746Mandalorians, I'm just not interested in them.
>>483136746I will buy every DLC regardless just how I would buy a Slaanesh, Helves, Delves DLC despite not liking any of those factions.I think space marines and Eldar are boring, but those are 100% gonna be part of the base game.
>>483136746Everything that isn't PontusPontus will conquer the galaxy
>>483136746It depends how CA portrays those factions. If the gameplay is fun and the content is good enough for the price, I'll buy it.I don't care about Tyranids, Tau and find most of the Space Marine chapters meh, but I'll buy if they are good.
TCA
>>483136030at the very least both of that shit is on topic the yaoi greek shit and rat shit is at least somewhat related to Total War this random shitty anime has absolutely zero connection to total war
i only approve of R-Pop
Lord Yakub sensei... I-I failed you...
>>483136746xenos shit in generalthey always feel like such an unnecessary sideshow to the main Imperium-Chaos conflict yeah I get it that you need enemy and faction variety, but it really feels like they should have had some kind of alignment in the setting's main conflict like how Fantasy places most of its factions in either Order or Destruction
>>483142347Orkz are the main characters of the setting, get over it.
>>483141336Yakub...our father...we must destroy the darker races...
>>483137083Don't be so sure about Eldar, they seem to be the least compatible with Total War battles. I think they could be base for 40k II, 40k DLC X, or CA will just launch them without making them proper until their inevitable overhaul
Haven't been keeping up with all the recent stuff, so what happened with the leaks? Were they all complete bullshit with the next dlc announcement for TWW3 or was there some truth to them?
>>483142347I find the Imperium-Chaos conflict to be the least interesting part of 40k. It's not just me, many others feel this way.
>>483127654Yeah, a fun faction but their starts are too boring (Juan Bo is fine)Still prefer High Elf starts that aren't Tyrion or Alarielle
>>483143421Legend's leaks were complete bullshit but somehow he still won.
Here we are
>>483143421Respect the LAWLegendAlwaysWins
I cannot believe people watch Legend's livestreams they're 40% whining 40% "thanks for le superchat" and then the last 20% is him taking 4 hours to do a single siege so 2 empire spearmen dont get killed how do you not get bored watching this?
>>483144246>the last 20% is him taking 4 hours to do a single siege so 2 empire spearmen dont get killed how do you not get bored watching this?Found the autoresolve everything guy
Imagine how much better Total Warhammer would be without chaoswank
>>483144390We all know the scaleYou either auto resolve everything or spend 2.5 hours on a single battle there is literally no inbetween also how the fuck do you even surmise i AR everything from that statement? Even if I liked spending 4 hours on a siege at least IM the one doing it im not fucking watching someone spend 4 hours on it im the one playing
>>483144550Chaos Franchise
>>483143496>many othersall three of you
>>483123358>2 rangedMaybeThey have 2 lords, 3 heroes and 1 good unit with the rest being trash or slaves but your army is quite bad and harmony is only going to be hitting a few units
>>483145050Correction 4 good units
>>483144973Me on the right.
The human wanking in 40K is gay
>>483144390I think the longest siege I've decided to actually do took me half an hour and it was again empire. They're good at sieges but extremely slow at them. Moreover they fight pure melee factions that are completely worthless inside siege maps if you're patient.I don't think I would bother launching a siege that would take me 3 hours to play through, I would probably block that siege with a single lord until I have an obvious advantage, and I play with the 60 minute max per fight counter so I couldn't do a 3hr siege to begin with
>>483145492Human Franchise
>>483054562What I could see working is a HoMM/AoW style game but with Total War combat
>>483144565What the fuck are you talking about 99% of sieges should not take you longer than half an hour at most
>>483127654No, I was pretty done with the faction after beating juan bo's campaign in 72 turns. All you have to do is pacify lustria. I pacified cathay in that timeframe too as a side venture that wasn't required in any form.His endgame fight was also disappointing and unlosable because you get infinite reinforcements
>>483144973Post same image but with Fantasy factions and Lizardmen to the right
>>483145896...that was my point are you even paying attention i was making fun of legend for spending 4 hours on a siege you arent even that anon you're just some random that just read that and didnt follow along
>>483146212Fantasy is actually based on doesn't revolve around human wank. Yet somehow humans are still the best faction, proving that you don't need to make human wanking shit to make humans interesting.
>>483144550>Imagine how much better Total Warhammer would be without chaoswankTotal War: Warhammer 2 has been out for almost a decade anon
>Make max time per fight 45 minute>You can no longer make gay decisions like spending 3 hours on 1 siege>You can no longer spend 2 hours wasting all ammo and spending all heals on single units until heal cap before actually launching the siege attackI found the way to fix to tw streams they were just playing on easy all this time
>>483146564Miss it so much.Take me back.
>>483146543My thought on fantasy is that everything you're trying to accomplish with fantasy races could also be accomplished with culture. That's why it always comes back to human wank and why in a significant amount of settings humans are the best race mechanically
>>483146564>9 paid DLCs, not including the blood pack>4 of them are about Skaven and 1 with Beastmen
>>483146898This is true. But it is also true for every race. The setting could be all lizards and nothing would fundamentally change.
>>483146923Regardless of how much you hate the rats they are one of the more fun races to play as and I think its 3 dlcs? and you can completely skip throt but he comes with naestrahan
>>483147141Throt is literally the only fun Skaven, skip all the others
>>483146543>Fantasy is actually based on doesn't revolve around human wankYes it does, how many Black Library novels have no humans in it? Bonus points if no Elves or Dwarves either.>>483146669>Make max time per fight 45 minuteIf you're not selecting 20 minutes, then you may as well chop your balls off
>>483146923I mean like I agree with you but, initially snitch, throtThat's 3
>>483144550wtf Chaos is important in Warhammer???
Fellas I just wanna have sex with a cute skink.
>>483147541In my elite opinion, the setting is much better when Chaos is just a thing that makes wizards go crazy and explode from time to time.

>>483146543>Yet somehow humans are still the best factionindeed, the Kislevite man marches on
>>483147983>Popular = goodbanana brain
>>483148040Agreed, Empire is a shit tier faction played by people hating Total War.
>>483148040>>Popular = goodUnironically yea
>>483147983>New Zealand & Australia not playing the shitty nu-factions and stick to the true Empire of ManHoly Based!
>>483148040>>Popular = goodYes.
Empire is literally the only good faction
>>483148336It's just Legend throwing the numbers out of whack
>Empire>Kislev>Cathaybros...is it over?
>>483148453So the whole world love snow Elves and slant-eyed tall Dwarves?
>>483148814snow elves? like in Skyrim?
>>483148810Br*tonnia is the worst human faction by far. Even worse than chinks. Completely demolishes the theming of what human factions are about in the setting (normal men fighting supernatural being through combined arms and good tactics).
>>483148961*invokes the power of Jesus Conan*

>>483149062Warriors priests are just regular guys who give aura buffs by praying. They're not grail knights (space marines) who are the bestest awesomests blessed demigods who can 1v1 vampires and daemons.
Imagine if Bretonnians were real
Sieges are so broken. My units form a conga line from the ladder to the cap point. I'll have the standard bearer by himself while the majority of the units are engaged with defenders around the corner up a hill. Ass ladders and magic unbreakable wall sections are bad enough, and I can even accept unlimited ammo auto turrets, but if I can't even tell what the fuck my guys are even trying to do and have to spam click things to make them happen, then that's too much. Is there a mod that fixes busted unit pathing?

>>483149250>They're not grail knights (space marines) who are the bestest awesomests blessed demigods who can 1v1 vampires and daemons.I will now play this faction and spend thousands on models per month
Daily reminder to APOLOGIZE
>>483143421Complete bullshit and Legend's all salty about it. It's impossible for CA to pivot into two races his leaks said "would likely never get a DLC" in slightly over a week while scrapping previous DLC, especially considering James Workshop and SEGA would have to agree. Not enough time for it to be possible in any way, CA screwed him over hard by disproving him too fast so he's mad and spent the entire last stream shitting on CA and thanking for superchats in the spare time
>>483149716This is literally the worst virgin meme I've ever seen. It hits lefty meme critical text mass. The illustrations suck. Given the subject matter, it's appropriate. I'm going to try to find the reverse. I bet it exists and is better.
>>483149782Post the death threats he received, then I'll consider it
>>483143421Based Legend leaked the shit tier Cathay centric DLC and CA seeing the backlashed paniced and canned it. Now we're getting Greenskins, Khorne and Ogres instead. Overall a great win for the community
I didn't find the exact reverse, but I did find this
>>483143421Based Legend coded content for an entire completely new DLC pack in his spare time, infiltrated CA, hacked into their computers, deleted all data of the original DLC, leaving behind his work as a replacement so they would have no choice but to unveil that instead
>>483150031You are totally out of your fucking element here.
>>483150031>Legend leaks>CA sees no one wants Cathay fucking shit>*sips that DLC and announces the next one they had planned instead*"IMPOSSIBLE! CAN'T HAPPEN! NO WAY THEY'D GET APPROVAL!"Idiot
>>483150031>Not enough timeI thought that at first as well, but there's nothing beyond that. No deadline, no screenshots, no unit names. If they announced we have Orc McOrcson and Khornhole the gaper and here's a trailer vid and it will be out by September, you might have a point.
>>483150714Kek imagine CA having the whole next DLC ready to go already
>>483150875It's not ready idiot, see >>483150758All they've done is announce it
Now that I think about it, I've never even started a "Cathay" campaign. I think they need gnomes instead of ogres, and by gnomes, I mean suicidal bad work habit gnomes that die in industrial accidents. You know, to make the chink theme work.
>>483151024Cathay is moi favourite of the new races in Warhammer 3.
>>483151120Give me 3 reasons why
>>483150951We're seeing a trailer in four days aren't we

>>483151464That's lyrics from 2 different songs you dummy.
>>483151560I- uh- it was to avoid being DMCA'd. Yeah.
it's seems like Cathay's superiority has led to yet another controversy

i hate cathay cause we got that marty sue faggot instead of yin yin
>>483151823Is Cathay the only faction that's not playable in tabletop but is in TW?
>>483151896based alert
>>483151896Unfathomably based.

>>483152583I don't think he's a warrior of any kindThere ARE monarchs in this setting who are just rulers and not fighters
>>483152876well you just answered your own questiongramps is too busy and old to fight shit

He doesn't lack hopium, I'll give him that
>>483155049Malus is such a dipshit
>>483155401I just read what happend to LhunaraI hate him so fucking much, he deserves everything the daemon does to him
>>483155401Why does he call himself Evil DarkEdge?
>>483155698Unironically because he got bullied, darkblade is a joke name he hates
YOU HAD A FAITHFUL DREADFU ALWAYS BY YOUR SIDEAND YOU KILLED HER I WILL NEVER PLAY A MALUS CAMPAIGN EVER AGAIN
>>483155551>LhunaraBest girl :(
>>483156554I got spoilered of her death through his campaign. In his campaign you can get "Spirit of Lhunara" from a Tz'arkan mission.
>>483156554Is there a single dark elf that isn't a total schizo psycho anyway?
What about a Dark Elf girl who is actually soft and loving underneath her cruel and murderous exterior

>>483157248cringe go join the high elfs with that love shit
>>483149782is he responsible for the shitty whack-a-mole campaign ai?
>>483158786Is there a single high elf who isn't a nymphomaniac slut?
>>483159029High Elf women aren't sex obsessed fiends, they only act like that around Bretonnian menBretonnians make Elf women lose control over their desires, quite a potent effect as not even Elven goddess can resist, just ask Louen what the Lady did to him when he showed up in her realm
>>483159796is that Bactria?
Why is it that sometimes when I arrange my unit cards it reflects when I form them up in a line but sometimes it does not? Am I missing something?Also is there an easy way to checkerboard my lines?
>>483161308My lazy chequerboard method is>select my staunchmen>drag them as wide as possible>hold down control and press up (or down?) a few times, this will make them narrow their formation into a box, each in their own location so there are pleasant gaps nowthen I just jiggle things around a bit
>>483161095>Bretonnians make Elf women lose control over their desires>BretonniansThat is just one(1) squire and one (1) schizo bladesinger, their autism is not reflective of their societies.

>>483161804What are you most excited for?
Where are our drawfags? WE NEED NEW GOBBO ART!
>>483162079>The Yona>The word Yona in Pali and the Prakrits, and the analogue Yavana in Sanskrit and Yavanar in Tamil, were words used in Ancient India to designate Greek speakers. "Yona" and "Yavana" are transliterations of the Greek word for "Ionians" (Ancient Greek: Ἴωνες < Ἰάoνες < *Ἰάϝoνες), who were probably the first Greeks to be known in India.that's awesome, I did not know that

Is there a use for barrier outside of battles?
>>483161775Empire (bretonnian) men want only one thing and its fucking disgusting
>>483164679attrition
>>483159796i have a tip for you, try drawing actual scenes where things are firmly on the ground, the hard part is drawing things in relation to each other. you dont want to be stuck
>there are actually people in this general who delude themselves into thinking that spamming ranged units is good playJFC. Guise, you do abide by the Golden Rule, don't you? Never Use More Than 4 Of A Single Unit Variant In An Army. Under any circumstance. If the race you're playing doesn't have a roster big enough to accomodate that, then simply never play that race.
>>483165572that's just Madison rapeposting other artists and stealing their art, as usual
>>483165576>Never Use More Than 4 Of A Single Unit Variant In An Army. Under any circumstance. Never post any advice in this general ever again.

are there any mods that make battles last a bit longer? like i really want to just hold the flanks and watch the men fight. but i dont want missile units to dominate

I like using mixed armies, some T1 'trash', mid tier units and a handful of high tier stuff.Why would I want to go all in with e.g. Sisters or Dragons? Sounds really boring.Is that also the reason why the AI apparently behaves cowardly in all your games?
>>483170105>>483170726I'd have beaten you up both in game and in real life you fucking role-playing queers.
>>4831655764 is too small. 6 to me is reasonable, with it capping out at 8 if you are absolutely sure. But I just find the idea of +8 or more of the exact same unit no variation kind of boring. Like I can't imagine how bland it'd be to field 16 of a single unit.>>483129320I thought SFO would nerf tamurkhan but I haven't even gotten his weapon yet, he's level 20 and he has base 1.2k weapon strength
