I'm excited for a helf dlc but what could they even use roster wise? Army wise I feel that they are one of the most complete factions in the game and essentially have everything. I know their court mechanics could use an entire rehaul with influence being ultimately worthless at the moment. Maybe influence will be changed to something like Tzeentch where they are able to spend influence on plots and schemes instead of just relation dumping.

>Rolling the cannons away and singing sea shanties (somehow getting almost every word wrong yet still keeping rythm) the zombies go back to their River-Reaving campaign.

The Dead Flag fleet are the bane of the great rivers of South Cathay.

This pic is from a battle where we held an elevated position against a Cathayan army. They tried to climb the hill but were hammered by gunfire all the way and had no cavalry to flank. Most of the chinks died before they reached the zombies frontline. Those that didn't were pulled down by the hordes or chopped apart by the Depth Guard.

Its sub-optimal to put any daemons in his army at all, any Khorne-marked unit that classifies as human are unbreakable under him past rank 7, once you get them all past there and keep them from getting unit wiped, game's over unless you run into like 3 doomstacks at once.

Khorne armies are fucking stupid. It's already impossible to lose anything if you have a stack of chaos warriors. you can spend your entire campaign auto resolving everything on VH and not suffer any losses due to how broken the faction is.

Gorbad's not op. I had to restart a campaign recently, if thorgrim beats skarsnik it's very hard.
>>
Why couldn't CA break into the esports scene?
>>
>>507347314
Skulltaker yeah, Golgfag kinda. Arbaal is obviously OP because he's Khorne but his mechanic is all about deliberately gimping yourself before challenges to get better rewards so it still ends up fun. Gorbad is not OP at all.

battles are kind of boring and not very fun to watch in a competitive environment. there's also the fact a lot of the time the battles are slow. then there's the balance issue of the game being a clownshow with lords / heroes.

His gimmick forces you to create mixed armies in a game focused on doomstacks of 1-2 specific units supported by some heroes
>>
which factions have the best units in the early/mid game?

Because I usually quit before getting to t5 and never really recruit late game units because I basically won that game at that point

Matters a lot, if he survives he takes care of the dwarves and he becomes high strength rank meaning you can snipe him for the biggest waagh(+15 leadership for all units is pretty strong on greenskins).
If he dies you get sandwiched between throgrim and queek.

The tbest way to play Arbaal is not for a no defeat run, we already know once he gets his mortal army going, there's basically no stopping him. Rather, get him defeated in the first battle and do the whole campaign with the Defeated debuff and wage war on everyone.

Who was the Roman military leader off the battlefield( able to get an army from scratch or near scratch get them trained and have good equipment such as weapon seals and armor before battle) and who was the Roman military leader On the battlefield( military tactics in the field able to seize the moment knowing how to use the enemy strengths and weaknesses against them) I'm going to call keeping t the Army together in the face of possible decision( George Washington specialty)neutral between the two types .

honestly the only things I liked about 3K were the retinue system, officer loyalry, court politics and character relations. when you had an officer it felt truly felt like they were offering their services to you. If they left they would take their army with them. Aside from heroes being an absolute nuisance in romance mode the only real major issues with the game was just how samey all of china was. There was way too many factions and it was hard to follow who was who. I would have loved to see a follow up or another mainline TW game that carries on what they tried to do with 3K.

Like no joke this barbarian he-man fucker from the south can solo my armies. Zhang Yang can solo my armies because his axe makes him unbreakable etc. If they are on a horse they are invulnerable unless you have a single entity to stab them. I'm already annoyed because I didn't realize he was at war with me because his entire faction portrait is covered with his fat face so I didn't see the red outline.
>>507364502
I'm playing it now, its not so bad. Theres enough unique bits but if you pick a boring faction you'll be snoozing. For example Dong Zhou has his intimidation mechanic that allows you to bully people into diplomacy and if you maintain it at max (which is easy) you get more points to bully people using the emperor (who you have once he comes of age). If you make Lu Bu your heir and then recruit Ma Teng as prime minister your cavalry become absolute beasts. You also have three horse pastures nearby that further reduce their cost so shock become free. BUT you gotta get an add-on to turn off looters or else you will constantly get pissed off when council missions send a "looter" stack (fully recruited and high quality)
that randomly attacks a settlement at edges of the map.

May I have your attention? Thank you.
Elves, in their mistaken assumption that the old ones thought of them as anything more than weapons of mass destruction, continually make the poorest of long term decisions despite being the poster child for being able to afford spending time on issues and being able to accrue huge amounts of information. Therefore I believe, just like the liggers, we should have a slur for them that represents their stupidity because knife ear is almost to kind. thank you

>>507331653
for some reason gifting settlements or doing actions against your client's enemies doesn't improve your relations with the client or worsen them against the client's enemy
however if you peace out against the enemies at the end of the contract, you earn minus points on relations with the client and good points with the client's enemies for peacing out
very weird
>>
>>507397293
First part is intentional, the tutorial explicitly states all your actions reflect on your employer, so only they get the bad relations from your actions. As a result, second part is probably a bug.

I really want to just spend a day as a Bretonnian knight, not necessarily a Grail Knight just like an Errant or Knight of the Realm, and go on a sortie into the land around Athel Loren and catch a camp of rogue Asrai who've been raiding my lord's village, killing his peasants and driving off the hunting game.
I rally a dozen men-at-arms and catch them breaking camp before dawn, elves are fast, but not as fast as Bretonnian horses, and we catch them.
I stave in an Asrai male's head with a mace and go for his friend, maybe blocking a few arrows before smashing him to the ground and beating his soft, pretty little wood elf face until its nothing but a bloody ruin.

Maybe there was a female with them, my men-at-arms bring her to me after we kill what few remain, being shy about killing a lady, even if it IS an elf lady. Naturally I tell them I'll take care of it, and take her to my keep.

Modest little holding, maybe in Parravron, nothing more than a motte and bailey, if that. I chain her legs with hard iron and keep her in a thin night gown and nothing else, and have her as a paramor.

She may grumble and call me a lumberfooted savage at first, but after a few years, the once proud and noble daughter of the forest will be a willing and eager little pet, who I can parade in front of visiting lords, and enjoy how I like.

Perhaps, if Elves are capable, she'll even bear me a son.

tried an archaon campaign since people say its so great but im having such a miserable time. The dark fortress mechanic means you just wanna hang around Norsca/chaos wastes all the time, its kind of a bummer and then the vassal system sucks where even after designating targets or issuing orders my allies begrudgingly move around. The recruitment system sucks where any loss to the army means multiple turns set back. After growing to getting 20k income a turn i cant even field more armies as anywhere i go runs out of recruits or if i get a harsh setback during campaign like a pyrrhic victory, i can only recruit 1 marauder, 1 poison dog, 1 regular dog, and 1 horsemen so i have to sail back home to make new armies. The upgrade system is novel but when I need to replace some chosen who died, suddenly the AI can just boucne back in 2 turns with heavy infantry while I have to run around until my marauders can level up. The blessing mechanic sucks, i feel like i can never justify the buffs because i need to be constantly refilling my capacities so my armies can field dangerous monsters since dragon ogres are so hard to come by so i wind up mostly having armies of trolls or spawn

Im trying to wrap this campaign up but i feel like i missed out on something. id rather play a greenskin army or a beastmen army then this any day.

CA, this is the worst sort of bugs to leave for a month-long Christmas+New Year leave, your hotfix should've been focusing these, not some esoteric Skulltaker nerfs. All it takes is one heavy thread on reddit and/or steamforums and the community may be enraged again, though they seem pleased after the post so maybe that's what you're counting on. You should've fixed the actual issues in it while saying Skulltaker nerfs community seemingly demands are coming.

So do good players ignore blue skill line? I am always getting it first (unless my lord is caster with good magic) for upkeep reduction and replenishment.

I also ignore yellow line that buffs just lord. Am I doing it wrong?

The campaign power gap between some cultures/factions is the problem. I can handle anything AI can throw at me as Ogres(even before the update), WoC, rats etc. Current AI cheats on legendary feels perfect for their campaigns.

And then we got Katarin who has to deal 6 full stakcs of rats + 3 full stacks of WoC + 2 monke stakcs from vassal with 2 stack of kossars, or Khalida that has to concede land just to survive.

I want Neferata right fucking now but updates/bugfixes should be the prio. Some campaigns must be harder than others sure but suffering doesnt equal fun anymore.

I dont think you understand what it is im complaining about. Battles are too big. There are too many pieces running around. 4 full stacks fighting 4 full stacks constantly all the time is just not fun. Especially when you are forced to recruit and make shitstacks just to have enough shit to meet all of the massive amounts of units that they field. Its tiresome. Its boring. Incredible fun killer.

I just wish CA would finally introduce sliders so that I could double upkeep or something, just something to make battles less unnecessarily blobby. Like, its fun to have the occasional huge massive battle. Yes, that can be fun. But when you reach turn 30 and onwards, its the LITERAL only thing that happens.

Also, Kislev was megabuffed recently. If you lose as Kislev you are shit. Period.

Yes, they also ignore the yellow and the red lines, because they don't cheat. They also play on Turin's streams.

>>
>>507421157
It depends on faction. If you can get upkeep and/or you have specialist armies, blue line is very good for the lightning attack.

Red line is only relevant if you make armies with dominantly one-two kind of units.

Yellow is needed for caster lords or duellists. Its really all just priority and knowing whats good for the situation.
>>
>>507422683
control large armies is only there for people with potato pc's or cheesers, it shouldnt actually exist and the battles should be smaller by default
>>
>>507422402
do you just destroy towers with your artillery and then shoot them with archers until you run out of ammo?
>>
>>507423293
Yes. Once the AI discovers its one brain cell and moves away from the walls far enough, then you send in the melee infantry for the final push while being covered by archer fire.

Also, Eltharion has unlimited ammo and any high elf can get the item for unlimited ammo via rng.

>replenishment
Get better at battles also better stats means less losses which means less need for replenishment.
An embedded hero with increased replenishment and ending turns in conquered settlements is more than enough.
The best blue skill is the first one, take that and nothing else until all reds you need for your comp and worthwhile yellows are taken.
Stats on fighting LLs are good and potentially better to take than reds early if you want to save red skills for late game units.

Blue one is the best since TWW1 because it buffs you on a strategical layer, improving things that you can't bypass with your manual skill, like income. Buffing your 19 units is better than buffing single one that is general as well.
Most people invest into their single entity general for fun factor.

Kislev is available to every player and is a very front-facing campaign thus their issues are more important to more people. They inherited the worst version of being designed around RoC, other factions either got mostly fixed or never had those issues in the first place.

how do you maintain WoC armies after you leave chaos wastes/Norsca? I'll invade the empire and Bretonnia and at most I can recruit one marauder infantry, one horseman, and a dog. If I take a pyrrhic victory, it basically cripples the army or if I let an enemy slip away they'll pop back in 2 turns with their heavy infantry/cavalry/artillery refilled while I have to wait 4 turns minimum to add in another bloodletter or hellcannon
>>
>>507429449
do they really have the stats posted for people to see? I'd be curious what the most played campaigns look like. And I have to imagine Tomb Kings is one of the least played because of how their faction is set up to work. The last thing they got was their debut DLC 6 years ago.

well the point is that if you lose your main stack most people would just reload or start a new campaign. playing until defeat is odd because you will have to sit there and wait many turns before you lose your final settlement

The opposite. You should always go as aggressive as you can early game. On some campaigns it's practically mandatory. And if you loose so what? Start again. It's not as if 50 turns have passed.

It would have been fine without drycha. But her buffed dryads absolutely dumster the early Kislev units. The campain AI mod I've been using seems to be working as well. It makes the AI significantly less retarded and more agressive. She came straight for my capital and raized it in the same turn.

the fact that pistoliers are a tech tier lower than handgooners always seemed silly to me. They deal marginally less damage but are infinitely more mobile, way easier to position because of horse height advantage, and have 360 degree fire while moving

>>507435583
Yari Ashigaru is the undisputed champion of OP units in any total war game. Hastati is a close second, but what makes them different is that Yari are dirt cheap and almost free, where Hastati actually cost something.

For warhammer 3 I think that Saurus Warriors, Chaos Warriors, Dwarf Miners, Clan Rats and Dark Shards are the champions of being the best shitstack units in the game.

They cost nothing, are basically free if you play Oda and you can recruit TONS of them. You put them in position and put them in spear defensive position whatever(cant remember, so long since I played tw with actual strategy and formations). The AI is kinda braindead and will charge head first into your staunch line of spearmanii and get shredded.

On top of that, they WILL trade decently with samurai and other units over double their price because of ridiculous buffs, especially as Oda.

Something needs to be done with penalty for losing battles in Total War games.
If you're army, especially main army, gets wiped you're fucked. It literally sets you back 10+ turns or even may cost you the campaign.
You see many campaign stats where people have few or no defeats at all because of this.
I don't remember this being suck a problem in older TW games. It's like old vs new xcom. Losing high level soldier or losing a battle is almost unacceptable which leads to extreme save scumming.

Been enjoying Gorbad quite a bit.
This is my go to standard pile of violence with basically having the black orcs act as a shields and emotional support for my trolls. Block and Smash

I also use the one that boosts the fuck out of arrer boys via river trolls, Gorbad is currently running around with a better shooter army than most elves with it.
With the new gobbo hero I also have a super ambush/stalker spider+3 squig army with almost guaranteed ambush.

Any other combo's anyone has found?

Champions of Chaos is honestly the only mandatory dlc out of all 3 games. Without it neither Chaos Race feels complete.
Golg Fagman Eater is better than Ogre Kingdoms dlc. Has more units, LL is actually cool, has additional gimmick too.
Elspeth is a cringe femoid with boring OP mechanics and units that aren't even needed or that interesting.
Malakai is actually useful since his new Slayer units and LH fit Karak Kadrin campaign as well. Kinda dumb playing as Ungrim now without this dlc, it would feel like a Demo version. It's pretty much 2 LLs in practice
Shadows of Change is a schizophrenic dlc adding random shit to the game that wasn't even needed from flavor standpoint. You would think they will add either Monke king and kung fu units or a proper full terracotta army to fantasy chinkland, but no. And that boring guy who should be FLC LL sitting in Central Cathay goes onto an expedition to Lustria, which should be Yin Yin's gimmick.
Kislev got a baba yaga which on it's own fits, but other monstrous units from this dlc only really fit her and her IE starting location is retarded. Might be fun on Old World. Honestly lack of Ungol vs Gospodar conflict cucks Kislev hard. In better timeline too Rasputin would be dlc LL with thematic slav, religious units and saved Kislev design in TWW3, but alas he is just there as an npc so you can smash his Patriarchy as Katarin.

it really is
i honestly feel like I should have lost that fight
but i just fought them in the trees where their arrows did 0 damage and then just clubbed them to death
no wonder why grom wrecked ulthuan that hard the first time
what a slog

He legitimately hates most of his audience and couldn't stand answering their dumb questions for 5+ hours. The guy nearly had a mental breakdown. The only enjoyable part of his streams were watching him answer those retarded superchats

I also think he legitimately hates total warhammer now but knows his audience is mostly warhammer fans that won't want to keep watching him when he switches to whatever the next historical game is. He always talks about how the other historical games perform terribly on his channel and he resents the fact that he can't get paid as much to play games he actually likes.

Are chaos dwarfs fun? Do they have same play style as dwarfs?
>>
>>507474650
Yes. No.
>>
>>507474650
They're fun but there is little distinction between legendary lords so they don't have as much replayability as the dwarfs. They are slow to build like the dwarfs but their armies are different, more like the skaven than anything.

>>507474650
most fun of any gun based race imo, and the economy system makes them feel a lot more in depth than other factions

Norsca are not a real faction and will never be one. They are thematically fundamentally broken. The only thing, which could save them, is to merge them into a "Tribes of Chaos" faction, which will involve all of the horse nomad and fantasy barbarian faction living in the Chaos wastes.
>>
>>507479454
Yeah, never bothered wit thundertusk either. 3 turns recruit and doesn't have fire at move and all he gets in return seems to be magic attack and slow aura. What's the point if regular stonehorn is 2 turns, 1 tier lower and does the job just as well.
>>
>>507480167
the only thing that could save them would be naval raiding mechanics

Not fun in a game where teleportation mechanics are ever more common. If they gave Wulfric teleportation in WH1, they would at least had been in the spot light at some point in their history. Now it's over.
>>
>>507474650
fun yes
Play style on campaign map is very different. They have a very unique economy.
Play style in battles is 50% similar, 50% different. You have the usual strong heavy armor dwarfs, guns and artillery. But you also have hordes of hobgoblins, monsters and cavalry.

Each Kislev LL represents a different face of Kislev and the relationships people have with tradition. I'd recommend each of them at least once if you want to explore these themes.
Katarin is the neo-traditionalist. Seeing a world in disarray, she strives for a return to the old ways, but brings to them new advancements in bureaucracy and technology. What Katarin fails to realize, like all neo-traditionalists, is that her pursuit of innovation alongside tradition has created something new; she is Evola's false traditionalist, a reactionary who will never reclaim the past, and instead must forge herself a new future. Archetypal Unit: Ice Guards, Elemental Bear.
Kostaltyn is the true progressive. This is not the progressive of today, which Kazyncski would describe as a "leftist", this is the brave man of social and technological reform. Kostaltyn seeks to make a new world, purer than the last, that abandons superstition and primitivism for a united church and a united people, wealthy from modern industry and powerful from modern technology. Kostaltyn is a rebel against the crushing weight of feudal tyranny, seeking a world in which any man, no matter their birth, can achieve power and prestige by their own hand.
Archetypal Units: Streltsi, Little Grom.
Boris Ursus is the lost traditionalist. Boris remembers the true meaning of Kislev: a powerful northern state opposed to Chaos. He divorces himself from the petty political struggles of his time, and chases after his ideals. However, in doing so, he has become separate from his people, from his home; he is a man lost to those he claims to champion. In order to succeed, he must return to his people, and either conform to their values or show them the virtue they left behind.
Archetypal Units: War Bear Riders, Tzar Guard.

Anyways Kostaltyn has a cooler start than Katarin, you should try him

>Gospodar clergy.
>Supposedly loves Boris and the church he built.
>Gets butthurt at Kat involving Ungols more into the state matters and flirts with an Ungol prince
>Immediately starts a civil unrest the moment Ursun "dies"
>Even the new Ungol Druzhina calls him a madman lunatic.
>But in game he buffs Ungol kossars, has access to state troops and can recruit Ice maidens/ungol hag mothers even tho he (and other patriarchs) constantly shouting about burning them all.

>Try Skarbrand for the first time (new to TWW3)

>Skarbrand is now a one-man doomstack against early game armies

Probably not the average Skarbrand campaign but this has been so much fun so far. Is Doomsinger better than his actual quest item weapon?

They could've just needed a 3rd LL for this DLC and Golgfag was on the backburner long enough to sub him in without much trouble
Unless we get some actual solid sources, I'm still optimistic
