>>582663953Neferata was a retard.
Mannfred canonically turned Morgiana and Eldyra into vampfus in the End Times, truly he has surpassed Nagash.
>>582663953I like her big hat
>>582664416him turning Morgiana into a vampire is STILL fucking retarded to this daythe End Times was chock full of this retarded shit
>>582664251>Person whose entire existence has been subterfuge>Doesn't get battle strategyNot the craziest thing
Did they give the new narrator voice intros to every faction now?
WoC not having replenishment in foreign territory by default bothers the shit out of me
HELP
>>582664251>get ambushed from behind>by an army positioned right in front of you >after entering melee with said armyThat takes some kind of skill, surely.
>NYEH
>>582664416>Inviolable things become vampires>Brettonia dies off screen in a single sentence>Kislev dies off screen in roughly a single sentence >The lizard men fly off in dc-10 like spacecraftIt's fucking joke writing
pretty proud of this fight, AR had me close defeat I think or desicive it was i forgortook me 3 tries because the tomb guards just wouldn't die
>>582664741Get fucked, bone boy.
>>582664763As the first paragraph suggests, she was conditioned into a false sense of confidence and in a Hurry
Im debating on abandoning my Nagash run and playing a real faction again. Theres too much retarded shit and bugs in nagash to make it enjoyable.
>>582664823y he soi facing tho

Yo drawchad if you're ITT, I requested a eldar x human drawing on /tg/ drawthread using that Tallarn guard and BT Banshee you drew a few times as a reference for character appearance. Posting it here, so you can see it since they're your OCs.
>>582664840>malekith was the real phoenix king all along and just didn't cook long enough>steam tank explodes because a nurgling poops in the exhaust>vlad dies because he licks nurgle infected blood from his weapon>gotrek gets his eye back from grimnir and then loses it again in the battle of middenheim>literally the entire world explodes because mannfred felt like stabbing gelti'm so glad total war continuity is completely divorced from this dogshit
>>582664840Things like Ulric and the elf gods were pretty weak by the End Times, their protection will not avail you.
this is paying off so hard, i can settle anywhere
>>582665454>malekith was the real phoenix king all along and just didn't cook long enoughThat's KINO though
>>582665615TW staple
>Finally rebuild most of my mod list after carefully checking for updates>Get 40+ turns in>Game seems really passiveFORGOT DEEPWAR AI MOD....fml.
>>582663953In my headcanon Neferata just looks like Monica Bellucci.
>MY EXPERIMEEENTS
>>582664975based SIGGY
>>582664251she was never really good at anything but being a karen
>>582665454I can't even rank those actions in terms of stupidestThey're all so unsafisfyingly dumbThey got so used to writing avatar if khaine jobs they didn't mind fucking over decades worth of life just mannfred could be fucking retarded
>>582665651No, it's a retarded asspull.
>>582665961its been in the lore since 7th
>>582665786that's lucrezzia fool least before she became a hag
How high should I out anti player bias to make it more like in wh2?
>>582665961Reminder that even human women know Malekith was right.
>>582663953I fucking hate how much AoS shit is in the DLCI fucking hate this Neferata
actually I kinda like how its hard to tech up quickly with nagashI've been using skellies for a while now and its super satisfying to make them workpeople that were bitching about this are definitely chaos players crying that they don't obtain wrathmongers in turn 5 from their gacha mechanics or whatever where they can 1v19 stacks early
davi sisters? our golden chevron hammers lost... how could this happen.
>>582666320
>>582666591>how could this happen.the pussy vampire player brought 2 full stacks
>>582665002In a later battle she was once again ambushed, while in melee, by that same army of goblins.
>>582665269NTA, but based and cute.
Are the Sylvanian corssbow/rifle men worth using as Vlad bros? They seem a bit anti-synergistic with VC playstyle
>>582665786>when you're at the club and the guys start talking about the size of their shits
undead factions shouldn't get diplo penalties for nagash's undead wasteland thing nor for vassalization so undead NATO becomes easier to make with factions you don't confederate
>>582650924>why do skeleton lords talk in ALL CAPS anywaysTerry Pratchett's Death spoke in all caps and a different font.
>>582666830They are redundant against empire but guns especially will help against chaosshitters and dwarfs.
>>582666631>Empire women like drooki and vampireswtf /twg/ told me they're beastmen only
WHY CAN MY VASSAL END THE TRADE AGREEMENT REEEEEEE
>>582666830They're worth putting into defensive armies in areas where you don't want to expand like near the dwarfs or when you start running into Chaos/Kislev.What pisses me off is if you get the SUPER BLOOD RITE RESEARCH for Sylvanian Garrisons, it requires building a second garrison building instead of upgrading your existing garrisons to have sylvanian troops.
How is Settra now?
>>582666958Yeah Neferata sided with the breathers against me which doesn't seem right.
Is VCO made redundant now or is VCO still better than the main conditions?
>>582667119I miss the times of CoC release when vassals would always give you settlements in trade when you asked them, at least when playing WoC.
>>582667119I vassalized Tretch and he still attacked me because>Horned Rat demands war with dead-things!
Chaos Invasion now actually feels like an invasion
Been playing with a mod that makes every Runefang into a far more unique item. Also gives them a fucking metal ass appearance.It's fun but these things are way too powerful
>>582666830They're not worth using with any LL but Vlad. And it blows that instead of being just a novelty in his faction they're now an integral part of the VC tech tree, the bloodline lords, and the empower bloodline mechanic. Can't raise shit like the black knights or drakenhof templars unit caps, gotta make it about handgunners I don't wanna use.
>>582667284>>582667289this game is dogshit
Never played warriors of chaos before. Started archaon and if i subjucate boris ursus to be my slave will i get diplomatic penalty with chaos autists? Will it count as a deal with order tide?
>>582667119It's incredibly retarded, and I can't wait until Fudging Vassals gets its shit together.>>582667231VCO if you want OP campaign changing benefits, but I don't think it's necessary.Neferata's victory conditions are kind of aids though and her quest line takes too long to get off of the ground (most people don't even know about her lahmia quest battle because the conditions to do it take so goddamn long).>>582667289>TretchLmao.Tretch, at least in TWW2, is programmed to always betray the player.If you ever entered too many pacts with him, he'd always start raiding your lands, knowing you can't break the pacts without the reliability penalty.
>>582664741UNDEAD SCUM!
>>582667134Settra is not in danger. He is the danger.
>>582667289Based Tretch
>>582667485>You need to control one vampire lord from every bloodline and the strigoi you get from tech and any von Carstein LL from confederations does not count.This seems like a big oversight.
>>582667449The problem is VCounts as in "Counts" are Vlad's faction.If it was just "The Undead" like it was in the old days, I would say, yeah Sylvanians should only be for von Carsteins, but it's not, and there's no way they're ever reverting back to the old days where you had several different undead factions all under the Undead Banner, so some armies would have mummies and lichemasters, some would be run by necromancers, and some would be run by vampires.
Is Belegar fun in this patch?
>>582667484Yes, unless it has been changed in a patch without me noticing.
>>582667765And confederating the von Carsteins is part of the quest later and can bug out if you do it before you get to that part of the quest.For me I still got the effect as if I had completed the quest, but it showed in my objects as incomplete.
>>582665454>malekith was the real phoenix king all along and just didn't cook long enough? Bu this is not even an ET plot, just open any High Elves army books and read how they have to trick Asuryan to crown their fake phoenix kings
>>582666052No, it's a retarded asspull.
>End Times update and DLC>No Eternity King Malekith reworkwtf
>>582668059Malekith being the true inheritor is an okay idea.The faggy shit of "he just didn't cook long enough" is gay as fuck though.Narratively it should have just been "he wasn't ready for the responsibility" or something like that.Though really it would have been better if the chosen was someone unlikely entirely to show how the elves have upset their gods.
>>582667449>Empower Von Carstein Bloodline>+1 Black Coach unit capacityI would've had fun with that.
Just give me a Tzeentch equivalent of Aspiring Champions and proper Slaanesh Chosen monstrous cavalry already CA my autism demands proper symmetry
>>582668236>he just didn't cook long enough>he wasn't ready for the responsibilityThese are the same thing.
I hope they replace Malekith with Malerion when dark elves get an update.Who wants that literal who OC character there to begin with?
>>582666736Can't teach an old dog new tricks
>Kislevite patriarch hero in the same region as Katarin>"Trust not the ice witch!">Bloodspeaker in the same region as Arbaal:>"Lord Arbaal. The mightiest Chaos Warrior there ever will be!"Kat gets no respect.
>>582666495You will enjoy her 8th ed model and play her.
>>582667860That is so stupid. Im beating them into submission and forcing them to pay tribute and join wars to kill their fellow humans. Isnt that turbo chaos?
>>582668585>he wasn't ready for the responsibility>so he throws literally several millennia long temper tantrum killing hundreds of thousands of high elves>but apparently Asuryan doesn't care'>at allstill the funniest shit to me
>>582667134
>>582668370Total War: Warhammer Age of Sigmar will complete the roster.
Total war: God of War when?
>>582668998You are absolutely correct, but unfortunately the game treats vassalization as a treaty and CA is too bumfuck retarded or scared of their spaghetti code to change it.
Gorbad is mostly a unit buffer/force multiplier leader right? I'm probably better off hiring a black orc big boss as a beatstick in his army?
>>582669095Fantasyfags phyrric victory after 10 years of TWW40K
>>582666128But Monica actually played a vampire in Dracula (as well as an evil queen / witch on multiple occasions).

>>582668585>Literally the only reason the dark elfs exist is because nobody told malekith it was gonna fuckin hurtThat's silly and you know it
so, nagash is supposed to be a warp entity at this point, right?not only does he not even look like a normal skeleton anymore, but he disappears and vanishes into thin air like chaos demons when he dies
>>582669187Sigvald looks like THIS ???
>>582669998kekypowaroo
>>582669014>Your entire race is so hoighty toity even your patron gods hate youUnironically dorfs probably don't even think he's needlessly tall
>>582668236>The idea that you have to actually die and be reborn in the fire to become the PHOENIX king is gay.
>>582670195monarchy is gayfucking uk fag
>>582669969Mournguls, banshees, and wraiths leaving behind spoopy ghost corpses on the ground looks stupid as hell
>>582669969The spirit of Nagash is bound to the winds of magic, so it has become somewhat like a daemon prince and can be summoned with certain rituals, the main difference is that it isn't bound to any god.

>>582670991are you on the final battle?
Ogres have the best titles.
>>582669187God of Total War is Legend's handle for his comeback account
>>582668236>Malekith being the true inheritor is an okay idea.No it's fucking not. The entire fucking history of the elven race, hell of many aspects of the setting, hinges on the fact that he was NOT him, and he couldn't handle it. The fact the dark elves exist at all, that he tried to undo the vortex and let Chaos destroy the world, that he has spent millennia recklessly flirting with Chaos and using demons, that he's been the bane of every continent's shores for longer than humans have been civilized, only to go "Oops, nevermind, it was him all along, we just misunderstood :)" is fucking ridiculous. Nobody in the entire world has fallen as low and ruined shit as hard he has, and making it all completely forgotten because of a single "Oops, I did it wrong the first time, lemme try again X)" scene made the setting into a fucking joke.
>>582671682But it's really funny
>>582671490yes
Trepidatious NaestraImpregnational Arahan

Lactating NaestraPromiscuous Arahan
>>582671682"No, Malekith. Phoenix King' is not a hereditary title.">Caledor II succeeded his father, Caledor I, upon his death"No, Malekith. You cannot marry the Everqueen; she is your half-sister.">Caledor II married his half-sister, conceived by his father and the previous Everqueen"No, Malekith. A Phoenix King does not choose his successor.">Bel-Hathor chose Finubar as his successor.
>>582672697Snikch's whole thing is never failing a job, he probably has anti-runic warpstone daggers prepared when he has to assassinate dwarf lords.

>>582673297>IM GAY
>surrounded by a couple of armies able to move through the tunnels>in the open with almost negative movement range>capped recruitment that somehow also takes upkeep>mannfred has better resurrection mechanics than the lord of the undeadHow did they manage to fuck up nagash so bad? I've started 3 times now and aside from using nagash in battle there's nothing fun about spending turn after turn just to be able to recruit tier 2 infantry. I'm going to move on to thanquol but it's a shame, I had high hopes in the dlc. I know Boris will be good because he's empire and have no interest in nurgle
Is rogue army a new thing? I honestly couldn't remember.
>>582673479We know Queek.
>>582673582Yes
>>582671682Malekith trying to undo the Vortex to let Chaos destroy everything is still wild to me.Like, the writers of the end times looked and saw that and somehow thought 'Yeah no, this guy was the TRUE KANG all along!'
guys helpwhy is this ambush not ending? xd
>>582673864This happened to me too. Also like to know why.
>>582672697the issue isnt snikich being the one to kill him, out of all the rats or even villains in the game he's the most fitting to do itthe issue is that there wasn't anything deep to it, thorgrim just forgot to lock the doors behind him and snikich just walked through, stabbed him, leftso thorgrim dies like a retard and snikich doesnt do anything worthy of a big dick assassin, everyone loses, welcome to end times
Do you require fresh troops?
>>582673582No, they are in game since TWW2 release.(But the ones holding a book of Nagash were on the map only if you played ones the very few factions looking for them, now everyone can have them).
Ok, so hear me out... the faction mechanic is this: you open a panel and click buttons to activates various cheats and receive free money.
>>582673864You can't escape the RA ROO
>>582674456dare I say...kino?
Isnt Nagash and the undead Settras fault though? Was him that started the mortuary cult to find a way to live forever
You’re minding your own business enjoying a game as Gelt when a juiced up Silent Blood Dragon attacks your stack of 20 wizards.How do you overcome the odds and secure a victory?
>>582674456money and resource you have nothing spend on
>>582674928Actually it's the mortuary cult's fault for doing it wrong.
>>582674928Maybe Nagash shouldn't have been a little bitch and did his job
>>582675242Guess Settra didnt hear of the Monkeys paw
>>582664251Necromantic fucking shits in general are seriously lacking in anything resembling tactical brilliance.
>>582675971That's Arkhan and Kemmler leading the undead force and they brute forced the brets.
>>582675971In the tabletop the only thing undead could consistently do to win was summon/heal their way through everything until the enemy army was dead from attrition.
the new Bretonnia music makes me want to play them
>>582675971Cut them some slack they have to micromanage every unit because they have no souls. Pile of violence makes it easier.
>>582675971Strigoi lords can give their entire army Stalk now. That’s tactical brilliance that Creed himself would be impressed by.
wight kings are no fucking jokealso they have a unique choice between 3 skills that give>guardian and reducing enemy hero actions in the region by 25%>gaining 20 anti infantry and frenzy>giving grave guard 3 damage and magic attacks
>>582676285It's a small but significant change.That other new line of skills they have is pretty nice too.My next vampires run I'll mess with Banshees/Ethereal units to see how they changed, since I heard they're pretty great now, probably with Kemmler too.
>>582676285That's great but WHY CAN'T THEY RAISE THE FUCKING GRAVE GUARD CAP!?
>>582664741RUN SKELLY RUNTHIS WORLD IS NOT MEANT FOR YOURUN SKELLY RUNTHEY'RE TRYING TO CATCH YOU
how early does neferata get handmaidens
Do you get the speedy zombie that can do more than 0 damage tech, or the ultra tank zombie tech?
It feels like Archaon is incentivized to never take risks right now.
>>582676151>launched with generic model, generic skills, generic voice linesWhy did they even pretend like Alberic wasn't a generic lord?
>dark elf army sacking his cities>Tyrion decides to stack his armies around his capital instead of dealing with itI thought they said they fixed this bug?
>>582676893You can recruit them basically from the start thanks to the landmark at silver pinnacle but your starting handmaidens cap you out and you need tier 3+ settlements, lv12+ on Neffy or empower the bloodline to increase the cap.
dont put AI player bias on max holy fuck this is unplayable
so general-less stacks are a thing now or what
>>582677275They have claimed to have fixed it a dozen times
Anybody else getting stretched icons when an army is near a vampire coven?Also Neferata is so fun holy shit
>>582678013Yeah I think they mentioned it in ET streams
>>582667134i hope you like 80 turns of mirror matchups

This is it guys

yeah ok bro
huh the ai in the chaos endgame is literally incapable of doing any damage to any chaos army, they still mash their dudes into them but do no damage and get insta wiped

HOW DO I DETECT MALAGHOR WHATS HIS FACEHE'S FUCKING INVISIBLE AND JUST SHOWS UP TO RAPE MY SETTLEMENTS????
>>582679186RA ROO
>>582679186I THINK HE ALSO BLOCKS REPLENISHMENTS IN PROVINCES HE'S HIDING IN??? WHAT IS THIS SHITT since when is this fucker so cancer
>>582679457POO POO PEE PEE
I'm having more fun with Neferata than Nagash
>>582664619It reminds me of the female reproductive organs.

>>582678237Damn. I hope they manage to fix it next time.
>>582679186>>582679834Nagash don't have the "patrols" building ?
I think the Empire is kinda easy now? Might be too many friendly LLs. Camping Middenheim for beastman incursions doesnt seem fun. It wasn't fun for Wood elves either.
>>582680179this shit doesn't do anything
>>582680132>does malagor do smth that blocks it in the whole region?yes a whopping -100%
>>582673297This picture of Mannlet gave me a thought. What would happen if a vampire drank Neferata's elixir of life? Would it make them stronger? Make them a double vampire? Do nothing? Makes you think
fuck off already man go to cathay or smth
>>582663953Sex with Neferata
>>582680365Empiresissies want it both ways
>>582681261Tbui and with queek instead
What's the most fun campaign to play on donut? Doesn't have to be elves, in case they all suck what's the most fun HE campaign?
>>582681414Grom Da Paunch. You are supposed to migrate to the donut within the first 10 turns.
>>582672814All of those won elections. One being descendant of another or having the patronage of the previous one doesn't mean they just automatically got it. It's the same as how Karl succeeded his father as Emperor, it wasn't because it was his birthright, people just voted for him and yes, part of it was because the father had done a good job so they thought he might have trained the son well (which was the case for Karl, not for Malekith).
>>582681414I had fun with ostankya
>>582678678yay!
Nagash was weak!

I'm gonna say it...Nagash campaign is boring af
>>582670991i would bet a lvl 20 (at least) hero stack army with ward save items would do the trick
>>582681261Neferata must give me head
>>582680883nothing nigga, that's the sole advantage of her flawed version, is that it turns you into a blood-drinking undead revenant. Nagash's version required regular consumption to prolong life, which is what he and Arkhan did before the died for good and "came back" as liches.

It's really nice to see how CA added some actually attractive and pleasant-sounding female characters to their game. Lahmian vampires look and sound sexy and not grotesque. If we had a Biden presidency, we would not have gotten that. Crazy how influential American politics is.

>no sex scene with loli Archaon after you defeat herbwos?
>>582686405I can only speak from experience. I went west to deal with bretonnians and rapanse had a doomstack of knights errant at turn 20. I had to move nagash and arkhan to deal with them. At that point, settra had already destroyed the rest of the tomb kings factions next to him. When I finished with the bretonnians, I had to spend 2 turns recruiting because healing and recruiting sucks ass with nagash. Settra declared war and started ravaging the land. By some miracle, I managed to win the war and right when he had 2 settlements left, kairos declared war. At that point he was strength rank 2. By turn 50 the campaign was pretty much lost. I couldn't recruit, build or fight because the armies are slow as fuck in the world map. Watching nagash killing models with flashing lights and colors is cool but that's just pretty much it

Why don't Counts get any sort of hero in high tier settlement garrisons? For one thing it makes no sense to not at least have a vampire or necromancer actually controlling the garrison, but it also makes them considerably weaker. Even a level 5 capital with fully built walls doesn't get one.

I always instantly end my turn without doing ANYTHING after starting a new campaign. Does anyone else do this? It prevents early game snowballing, adds some randomness to the game and gives up the player-exclusive first-turn-advantage.I also can't think of a LL, where doing this really fundamentally screws you over, but maybe I am wrong about this.

>>582689281The problem is, and always will be, the AI cannot utilise its bonuses as well as it should to compete with the player.

>>582691881Yeah its called going in and picking him you fucking child diddler
>>582691265I think the real issue is that Campaign mechanics have always been secondary to Total War.Trade goods should be things that have different values to different factions, sure some do have minor bonuses attached, but it feels like an afterthought compared to if the Empire actually needed sources of gold to keep their internal economy working to reduce rebellions.Controlling how much trade you give to who and for what could also be a factor in that case.Then let's look at races, what differences do dwarfs have to empire on the campaign? Underway stance and they can build resource buildings up higher if in a capital.Why do dwarfs have the same settlement structure as Empire at all?Shouldn't dwarf settlements be effectively tiny little mining/resource bases that exist solely for upgrading the resource, while their cities should be defended out the wazzoo but rare as fuck?Why would elves build settlements anywhere that isn't marked elven territory, though shouldn't they also be able to make amazing resource trains to those elven territories that make other factions jealous.And so on and so forth, there's loads of things that could be changed at the most basic level, but the problem is it would require a ground-up revision at this point to make it into the game at all.

Is the Chaos end game scenario supposed to nuke every existing chaos faction off the map? This seems like a bug.
>>582695070Even without auto resolve, you will never do anything that isn't just locking the army as a group and right clicking on the enemy, from turn 1 to turn 100
>>582697073They want to destroy everything rather than own everything
Um, i dont care about niggash
>>582695794At this point, nagash should not be your elite army, you can just have him and 19 zombies/skeletons steamroll everything while the elites are elsewhere
>>582697372Thats retarded then. Chaos went from pretty strong to completely irrelevant. The wastes turned barren overnight and the ordertide took over. Ironic.
games so alive rn we're gettin /v/ threads feelsweird
>>582697073>supposed to nuke every existing chaos faction off the map?Yes.If you click on the pannel it literally explains to you they all join Archaon's forces and their settlements are now razed.(+ during the event razed settlements can't be re occupied + a Province in which half or more settlements are razed get its climate changed to Chaos Devastation).
Holy shit I'm surprised by just how shitty Nagash is to play. He's broke, his campaign mechanics are ass (lolworthy game design where confederating Arkhan ends up instantly putting you at like -5000 income while surrounded by crusaders), his POE Black Pyramid tree is obnoxious to navigate and mostly filler, and the central campaign mechanic of requiring 3+ land of the dead casts to get a single necropolis is miserable.It's bad enough that Neferatra feels more fun as an undead faction, and she was free.
>>582697863/v/ have even worse takes on the game than this thread does.Grim...
>>582698075Grave, even!
>>582696760So I guess my campaign is bricked? I cannot figure out why he and nagash are both stunlocked. I have literally nothing to clear for advice or any other tutorial window.

>>582698939you are building up towards being an unbeatable force that's how it feelshe's supposed to start weakit's just more entertaining than steamrolling from turn 1, skarbrand is the worst campaign in the game
Quick need a faction that specialises in fighting undead in both stats and lore.Going to do a turn 20 Rise of Nagash and undead crisis.
>>582698029All your income comes from stacking a million +2% income buildings and putting necropolis in major port settlements. Its very slow to build up. They actually made a campaign that is weak early but snowballs out of control when you can raise dead entire armies anywhere on the planet.
I think the AI not attacking chaos stacks at end times is tied to the turn counter, if you start it too early they don't have enough higher tier troops/stacks to calculate a winning chance so they turn super passive.
>>582698504Halberds, though the other 2 aren't bad.
>Have half the map as Nagash at turn 70 and can still barely field 4 armies
>>582665454>>vlad dies because he licks nurgle infected blood from his weaponNah. The ring kept him from dying. He just spent the better part of the next two years recuperating. Basically he sat out most of the End Times because he gave himself a tummy ache. He only died after he gave Isabella the ring and threw himself on a stake together with her to cleanse her of her corruption. It's an incredibly gay subplot that takes up way too much page space in the finale of the whole game.
>>582696923And a turn after that, Nagash appears in a nearby province, sacks a random village over the end turn, and the game now always crashes at the end of the end turn. What an absolute garbage fucking event. 0/10

>>582699471>>582699701You guys are sacking every settlement, right? You occupy at t1 anyway so theres no reason not to. There are also techs were you get movement back after winning a battle so you always have enough movement to occupy on the same turn.
>>582699187We can have something between pain in the ass T1 unit spam and skarbrand anon. Not to mention we already have like 5 factions who's whole thing is T1 unit spam.
Are there Dual Gods Chaos worshippers in Warhammer Lore? Like I get that Nurgle and Tzeentch, Khorne and Slaanesh hate each other.

>>582703157Did you recently kill the Chaos Invasion? Some settlements will get stuck in a "razed" state and the AI will recolonize it but you can't occupy the settlement. You have to raze it again. Shitty bug.
>>582700289honestly when fighting undead its best to drop all spear and swordsmen and just go 100% flagellants for your frontline. although that may be different now with ulric units. unbreakable on flagellants is pretty vital for early game undead battles.
>>582703231would be really cool and overpowered for archaon and nobody else
>>582702904I think it's more about the mechanics just being boring.
>>582703231I literally watched an AI-controlled Dragonslayer hero from Ungrim's faction walk up one his own settlements and embed himself into the garrison, becoming a generic unit. How is that even possible?
>>582703427Yeah I just beat Archaon
>>582703157oh wow we're back to WH1!
>>582703231Firstly, that would be interesting and kind of cool.Secondly, tell us who is coming after Monkey King.
>>582703427So if AI doesn't occupy the razed settlement first I can never colonize it?
i kind of wish CA would introduce dark omen or mark of chaos like campaigns where the its scripted narrative battles back to back with finite units and money. I want a good classic empire vs orc campaign but nearly all of the empire starts barely encounter orcs.
>>582703427NTA but I also encountered that bug yesterday. It seems like all three of the end times events are buggy.
Its time for another Empire campaign.
>>582703468It would be really cool for him because he gets so many lords now. My ideal for both him and Nagash though is being able to freely control AI vassal armies. So you could confed a mortarch like Arkhan and he keeps doing his own thing defending your territory but you can grab him for as long as you need if you have to.
>>582703735I was able to raze and recolonize afterward. It sucks though because razing eats all your movement and the game doesnt let you sack/raze on the same turn. Campaign is somewhat bricked
DRAW
>>582704047Nagash looks like a manlet.Witness true stature!
as OP as Nagass is I still found Sayl and Throgg more OP
What a chaotic game
>>582704047truly a top 10 epic war, total war moment
>>582704358i feel that the ai is significantly more broken in 9.0.
>>582704358Why has CHYNA joined the undead legions? I though they hated skeletons?
>>582704532No, they love skeletons, that's why they can't bear them seeing hurt.
>>582704451I saw that no woc Ai can do anyything. At all. They just AFK at their fortress. They actually managed to make woc worse. But beastmen and changing are active now, so probably fixable.
How do hero bonuses on lord armies work? Can they stack, like with movement speed bonus?
So, now that the dust has settled, which are the most fun skaven LLs?And which vampire is hotter, Isabella or Neferata?
>>582704995Neferata's leg proportions look all fucked up. Is that why she lives in a fallen dwarf hold?
>>582704995Tretch
Which fat ugly bastard of the 3 Glottkin LH's makes for the best Lord? I'm thinking it's gotta be Orghott right?
>>582705468>glottkin gimmick is being 3 brothers>Release 3 LH heroes with the same gimmickI dont understand
>>582701896Do you own marienburg?
>>582705992No I just dragged my giant imperial nutsack across their territory ignoring all trespassing penalties. I don't want to take Marienburg because it would mean I'd need a garrison stack or two to fend off Be'lakor and the Norscans.
I think in terms of head game the objective list is:>SSS tier by virtue of both ability and anatomyCylostra(ghost, fat, doesn't get it often)Dechala, Masque(Slaaneshi)Morathi(whore)>S tier by virtue of abilityIsabella, Neferata, Ulrika(vampires)Ostyanka(knows her way around)>S tier by virtue of anatomyMiao Ying(dragon)>A tierSisters (2 for 1 but likely not experienced)Valkia (novelty, horns)>B tierAranessa(fish mouth, jaw thing)Alarielle(hot elf but likely no effort)Elspeth (probably willing to try but no experience, lack of stamina)>C tierHellebron (lazy hag)Repanse (hot but no experience)Fay (lazy hag)Katarin (cold)>F tierDrycha (splinters)Khalida (corpse)Bhashiva (feline tongue)
What's a good 3 way allied campaign?I know the obvious ones, Archaon/Sigvald/Glottkin, Ikit/Throt/Thanquol, Oxyotol/Gor-Rok/Tehenhauin or Oxyotol/Kroqgar/Tiktaq'to, Alarielle/Eltharion/Tyrion, The 3 chinks (or swap Yuan Bo for the cat), 3 way empire, Thorgrim/Ungrim/Belagar... Any other good ideas?
>>582706228Arkhan, mannfred, nagash.
>>582705630idk dude I just want to know which of these 3 hentai protags I'm supposed to go with.
>>582706335I'd figure that'd keep them from being used as his ultrapowerful lords.
I'm going to wait to do nagash since he's got some bugs (no ancillaries and no unique locations). Is archaon more good to go?
>>582706458>s archaon more good to go?Woc enemy AI doesn't work and the AI will destroy most of order for you.
>>582706458>no unique locationsHe has like 20 different landmarks that buff crypt ghouls though.
The dust has settled.Is Warhammer 3 engoodened now?
>>582706578Those aren't unique locations cookiedougheit
>>582704724I saw Azazel fucking around kyislev a bit but nothing substantial
>>582704985>Can they stackSkaven will always have absurd power scaling ~50 turns in because all of their missile infantry (of which they have a lot of) benefit from stacking bonuses from engineersIn short, they've stacked since ikit claw existed
>>582702794Old Nagash was better.
>>582702794He's a vtuber.
Will they scissor after the battle
>>582706162Marienburg is worth alot of income, and successfully fending off 20 stacks is a great way to level heroes before shipping them off
>>582706220>Aranessa(fish mouth, jaw thing)That comes off, it's just some shit she stuck there as a chinguard.
verminlurd
>>582706616Warhammer 3 has been great since they added Valkia.
>>582706803SHIT there goes my plan for the weekend. Was gonna make a Nagash Vtuber
I don't remember downloading a mod for this unit, but I must have.
>>582706569>AI will destroy most of order for you.I WANT FUCKING ORDER-TIDE. I've never had it in any campaign. I legit might grab that mod that lets you give artificial buffs or nerfs just to nerf the vampire cunts.
>>582706220>F tier>CorpseThey did her dirtyShe's animated by asaph, and her corpse is said to be invigorated by venom when it's time for her to do shit, else she is just a seated corpse atop a throne
>>582707121more like verminTURD lmfao XMFD
>>582705630It's a ritual numbers thing. 3 and 7 are significant to Nurgle. So the invasion of the Empire was led by 7 champions divided between three armies. Glottkin led one, Maggoth trio led one, Gutrot led one.
>>582707238No that's just how they naturally look
Do you think that Glottkin can solo his first battle?
>Playing Gorbad>End times scenario occurs (Archaon)NGL lads its kinda kino seeing a bunch of dumb green retards tiding forth to krump da spiky gitz for both a proppa fight and to save da worl.Wegh would be proud I think.
>MOST FAITHFUL OF NAGASH I WILL AWAIT YOUR RETURN, YES LORD NAGASH>eons pass>black pyramid is flying>undead rising everywhere>morrslieb every other day>giant fucking skeleton floating announcing his return>settra and armies of khemri amassing to fight nagash>nagash sign posted left right and center, literally in the black pyramid itself>Sorry, I need some evidence Nagash is back(that evidence is Nagash himself slapping me)Nagash sure knows how to pick them, huh
>>582707497Depends how strong he is but yea
>>582707742Are you wearing your Nagash helmet?
Vlad should have some sort of unique mechanic beyond being a wifeguy.
>>582707742Can you play as Arkhan and RP simping for Nagash?
>>582707834Being a wifeguy is just too potent though.
>>582707834Sure just slap some wood elf offices on him or some shit
Why do Necrarch vampires have way more HP than all other vampires besides Strigoi? Shouldn't they have less?
>>582707247>She's animated by asaph, and her corpse is said to be invigorated by venomIsn't she also supposed to have, like, marble skin or something like that?
>>582707834His unique mechanic is his regenerating handgunners.
>>582707906I mean yeah, Vlad the Chad is a meme for a reason, he alone is still easily the best Vampire LL and maybe one of the top 3 LL's in the entire game just by virtue of giving his entire army vanguard deployment and free XP per turn. Isabella providing a full extra layer of LL buffs and bonuses while being embedded in his army is just the chefs kiss on top.
>>582708067Lower armor and IIRC necrarch bloodline buffs don't add HP the way the others do. Also if you're tailoring them with traits via the lair they may end up with a -50% HP modifier.
>>582707137Not what I FUCKING asked. Did it FUCKING go through an engoodening?
>>582707953>>582707906>>582708117A lazy wood elf/empire offices clone would actually be fitting for Vlad given that he sees himself as a ruler of men and the empire.In fact this is so easy to implement as well as so thematic that I'm surprised it's never been considered.
>>582708395Warhammer 3 has been great since they added Valkia.
>>582707337>>582707238Oh the whole unit is modded, I thought I just grabbed a reskin for Morgiana, I didn't realize it added a unit and balance changes. That explains why I didn't recognize what the fuck they were.
anybody have a collection for the best goon mods?
>>582708409>>582707834>>582707953My favorite piece of Warhammer Fantasy lore is Vlad having like a 70% popularity rating among the human peasantry in Sylvania due to his first action upon taking power canonically having been to slash taxes.
>>582708465*sigh* Did I FUCKING ask that? No I did freaking not prickweed. DID. THEY. ENGOODEN. IT? Yes or freaking no, dickhead.
>>582707238the more I look the more uncanny it gets.
>>582708610Well you see, since they added Vakia it's been great.
I fear Valkia more than Malus.
>>582708853malus is absolute dogshit to fight early game, he can solo entire armies.
>>582708853The characters I play don't really interact that far norff... ;-;...
I feel like every lord can "solo entire armies" now.
>>582709056You say that but then you see Nagash actually 1v20 and learn that was hyperbole before.
>>582706228Vlad, Neferata, Azhag. Optionally swap one for Drycha.>>582706949Yeah, but those stack are usually jacked to hell with ungodly horrors.
>>582709056Name 3.Nigga.Name 3 1v20s and 1v40s.
>subjugate Arkhan as Nagash after being Tomb King starting enemy and closest Brettonian>-4000 dark magic economyoops
>>582709056For me, it's Neferata and her army of 400 cheerleaders.
Playing TK, you can't move books between armies?
>Nagash's unique mechanic is....a tech treeAMAZING CA
>>582709461The obvious ones are obvious.Nagash, Archaon, Taurox, Gor-Rok, Basically every chorf LL, Sigvald, Tamurkhan, Kholek, Skarbrand.But honestly IDK after that

>>582709889Witch King of WHAT?
20 years since release they still couldn't be assed to make a proper tile transition
>>582709679How does this work? Does she have some sort of skill line that grants her handmaidens absurd ward or damage reduction or something?
>>582709889Wrong, Rogal Dorn said this
>>582710028the only LL that I use as 1 man army is when I hit lvl 50 with Tyrion I reset his point, fill every point of combat and give him the Sword of Khaine
>>582710113I hope the zoomed out 40k doesn't look like dogshit...
>>582709056Playing lords correctly and giving them proper skills honestly feels like cheating sometimes.>give mage lord magic skillsoops they delete half the enemy army before contact is made>give duelist lord melee skillsoops they rape enemy characters effortlessly and then start raping everything else>give blender lord melee skillsoops army losses>give leader lord leader skillsoops every unit is statted like chosen
I kinda forgor about 40k
which elf type would make the best wife?

>>582710589Dreadlord
>>582710538Remembering back to how barebones WH1 was at launch makes me realize that's probably what WH40k is going to feel like so I'm not excited until at least the 2nd game and 4 years of DLC.
>>582710229bro have you seen the gameplay footage
>>582703231Isn't this how it will work in 40k?
>>582710589Great question anon. *turns around to face the rest of /twg/*Anon's got an elf fetish guys! haha what a nerd freak
Why does Nurgle have more Legendary Heroes than the rest of Chaos combined?
Why can't Nurgle lords confederate Glottkin?
>>582711143his franchise
>>582702794his gay ass smegmar design ditto for his stupid gargoyle skeletons
>>582711143he's PG13 unlike Khorne and Slaanesh and easy to make unlike Tzeentch
>WH3 is nurgle wank>40k will be tzeentch wankim tired boss
>>582711143Because it's easy to come up with guys who's gimmick is some combination of fat, jolly and diseased.>>582711207Because he's a warrior of chaos
Slaneesh wank
>>582710914there will be no 2nd gameif they ever make that mistake again im going volound mode on their retarded ass, but yeah they already said they won't do that again
uhm but like slaanesh isn't JUST stinky bumsex cumfarts and throatussy it's also like.. uh.. like excess. she is the god of excess in all things so she's also like the god of playing too many slay the spire runs and stuff you know~ not JUST things that make you cum ok? gosh
>>582710589Dreadfu, as the anon saysOnce you've read "Daemons Curse" you'll never stop wanting to beat Malus Darkblade to death with your bare hands.
which of the chaos gods is the easiest to fall to
would /twg/ really?
>>582711854Whenever I remember slaanesh is about sex I just remember that felinids(and therefore all kemonomimi) are already part of the imperion and I have no reason to fall to chaos when the emperor already approves of animal ear girl sex.
>>582711854>sheDark Prince. Not a she. Also worst Chaos God.
>>582712124so true we're all getting loving felinid wifegirlnids
>>582711854>play too many turns of wh3Nyooooooo *cums*
wtf is that bubble noise they added after every battleeee
>>582712132Slaanesh is the scariest thing a Br*tish person can think of: transgender
>>582712035probably nurgle. he requires the least amount of effort
>>582707238
I tried to play Neferata "tall" to use covens and diplomacy to its max, but I am now in Lhamia before turn 40 at str ranking 4 with what might as well be an end game army.I swear I wasn't trying hard or anything, she's just THAT stupidly OP.
>>582712523excess in all things, including pronouns and acronyms
>>582712132She who thirsts
>>582712035That depends entirely on your personality.
>>582710173Rogal Dorn's quote was more like >I only have one order for you. They are coming. Kill them all.Which is way sicker.
>>582712803I'm a millennial INTJ Sagittarius.
>>582669095But mein fatemaster...Tzeentch in Age of sigmar...Tzeentch has been neglected so far and their only new unit is effectively a marauder reskin
man of the imperium can you find it in your heart to love and care for a wife shaped genestealer?
>>582710229>>582668370>Just give me a Tzeentch equivalent of Aspiring ChampionsThe Severed Claw. You're welcome!
>>582710589Tomboy ones that play with lions
>>582709739Your Mortarchs ?
Chaos, or Undeath? Make your choice.
>>582713162It'd be hard, but I'd be harder.
great auto resolve, cavalry is famously good in sieges
>>582710139There are a few things which make any handmaiden army practically invulnerable:>the Lahmian Vampire heroes buff handmaidens via "Noble Grace" (5% Physical resistance) and "The Absolute Pinnacle" (+10% weapon strength) skills, which all stack with each other (so 6*5 = 30% resist)>Neferata gives them another 10%>they have 20% base physical resistance>they get another 10% from tech>they get a tech to give them another +20% when out of combat>they all have The Hunger plus the heroes can cast Invocation of Nehek when needed so what little damage they do take is instantly healedAt this point the handmaidens are already an invulnerable doomstack, which I think you can get to by about turn 30-40. You can make them even more absurd with:>the "Crone" Ancillary gives the heroes the "Dampened" status effect, which negates magical weapons, so the physical resistance is effectively a ward save>the heroes have the "Domination" skill which gives -3 leadership to enemies in the region, so with 6 heroes it's -18, plus Neferata gets a -5 leadership skill for -23 leadership, so the enemy all run away almost instantly>using a Vampire Lord with "The Commander", "The Undefeated", and "Shadow Stalker" gives them all an extra 16% ward save and gives them stalk, so the enemy can't see you until just before you get into melee with them>they get a tech to give them 20 melee damage reflection>you can stack the "Restless Spirit" Ancillary which gives +100 barrier hit points to all units in the army (I only have them equipped on 5 heroes in the screenshot which is why they only have 500 instead of 800)>you can keep building "Courtly Refinement" in vampire covens for +2MA/MD (I didn't bother much with this)It's just completely absurd. Nothing can hurt them and they destroy SEM stacks almost as easily as elite infantry stacks.
You can cheese infinite blood with Dieter and disbanding blood unitsThere, i ruined your counts campaignif you use the cheese, you're a faggotif you dont use the cheat, you're a tryharding faggot

are you meant to be moving your necropolis' around as you expand or do they really want you to sack farm level 1 settlements around them for necromantic juice for 20 turns to unlock the next cap?

>>582713745Nooooo... Dante though...
>>582713710>Markus still is basically canon fodder for Masque and Skulltakerisn't that what makes the campaign fun though? Being a weaker faction that actually needs to plan for ambushes with unconventional army types sounds like fun to me.
>>582713745> Every other primarch and their first captain.hey i liked curze and sevatar for being schizos
>>582713715i'm a sagittarius, what LL is for me?
>turn 30 changeling>getting more cults than I can develop per turnFuck, this is a lot
>>582692546turns out this is solvableI noticed the game ran weird on the turn ends that the game ended up freezing on so I fiddled with settingsin nvidia settings force vsync on (with vsync off in game settings) and lock fps to 72 (60hz screen, 60 is divisible by 12, so 60+12)the game doesn't go above 60fps despite the fps cap being above 60 because its hard vsyncedingame vsync doesn't work for this. just vsync via nvidia settings doesn't work for this. needs to be both a >60+fraction fps cap and forced vsyncdo not ask me why I am more confused by the issue now that I have solved it (by pure accident mind you)probably some fucking nvidia driver shenanigans
>>582713989>he's a geminioh no no no
>>582712668>"a second Thunderbarge hit Silver Pinacle"
>>582712575But if you really want to fall to chaos but are too lazy to do it you embody slaanesh and will become the daemon prince of couch potatoes.
fuck off Settra!
>>582714580leo's dont fall to chaos
>>582714037>Did you even try? My lord?
>>582714580MWAHAHAHA
>>582714981Kek
>>582710914You can't exactly make a 40K 2 if the initial premise of the game is the open-ended campaigns. They're just going to milk it with some insane DLC practices
So I know that the cool new undeath environment effect comes from the regional ritual Nagash does but how does everyone else do theirs?Is it just based off percentage corruption like always?
>>582714981That's literally true. Guilliman is a Leo and he's incorruptible, while Horus is a cancer and he is the greatest traitor of all.
>archaon uses his autoresolve cheat magic to kill every ai army with 0 losseswhats even the point of everyone teaming up then? they should quadruple the invasion size and make the ai actually do something
>>582714138uninstall your fucking game you sag FREAK
>>582710914They already said they will not and it was a massive mistake. They referenced the 6 months crunch of basically trying and failing to port Norsca then remaking it from scratch. It will be DLC's for years but the base game will remain the same.
>>582715425>everybody vs chaos>in reality it's just (You) taking down armies of chaosCA dropped the ball..
>>582714138Daniel.
does anybody know if there's a mod that lets you spectate campaigns and watch how they play out? I'm curious to see what factions will dominate the most when left to their own.
>>582711143Nurgle is power of friendship-pilled
>>582711143GW has a Nurgle bias and keeps using him as the end game threat for some reason. I think it's because he's considered more "marketable", as Khorne is a little too violent, Slaanesh is too sexy, and Tzeentch is too self-defeating. Nurgle is just "intestines and boils, o algo".
>>582712668Yeah, when I played her more aggressively, I found I hit hard limits in places early on but I was still doing alright.Then I realized the covens I had made and forgotten about to maximize diplomacy all had +300 diplo without me really 'doing anything'.I suspect had I built around covens I could have made everyone love me and used the 500 manipulation token to wipe out regions and rebuild them myself.
Kill stab master plans make under-empire invasions even more useless than before.>equip the lord with some imba artifact>take over settlement in 2 turnsversus 10 turns for under empires that you also need to establish first
>>582711541>>582711207Imo there should be order confederation and chaos confederation
That was cancerous
>>582716253Me: ok
>>582664823
>Necrarch gets an ability to summon a 'larger group of skeletons'>It summons over 400 of them
>idiotic AI still sacks settlements and fucks off instead of occupying them
>>582716253Disagree up to a point. It should be instead some kind of an alignment alliance, a higher level kind. Conflict is permitted within the alliance but if you are a member of the alliance then you automatically go to war with any chaos (or order if other side) that declares war on any member.>>582711143Nurgle is the most optimum of the chaos gods for GW's branding. Simply put Khorne is too generic, Slaanesh is too personal scale not fitting for mass slaughter but in a weird BDSM way (Hellraiser demo was fun but it's kinda comical fighting legions of gimp suit thugs), Tzeentch is the main competitor for novelty given Tzaangor are assuming the role of fodder.>>582712912Tzeentch cuz only he gives a shit to know all those stupid personality acronyms.
>there's no powercreep
>>582715859>iridescent birdmen and birdwomen>not marketablefrick this homo planet...
>>582715395Horus is not the greatest traitor and that is the tragedy of it.The worst in order;Erebus - Though in my opinion he was never loyal to begin with and it was obvious.Kor Phaeron - Actual self serving traitorLorgar - Colossal retard whose so called giga brain had rings run around it. The biggest cry baby of the lot with the LEAST reason to turn out the way he did.I say this as a Dorn and BT fanboy. Every other single primarch was coerced through supernatural forces or was broken by their 'traits' and until becoming daemon primarch's could always have been redeemed by simply surrendering and begging forgiveness.Lorgar is the only one that wholly, consciously and deliberately knew and understood what the warp was, what the 'gods' are and what the Emperor was and still went with his own fan fiction.Kurze and Angron were mentally deficient - one since birth the other mangledMagnus was tricked through guile and his own hubris but if he had known half of what Lorgar knew he would have backed off.Mortarion was tortured for 'millennia or more' in the warp by nurgle (Which I think is hilarious considering khorne tried to break Dorn for millions of years in the warp and somehow failed, but that is more a blow against Mortarion being the 'toughest').Fulgrim was literally possesedPertorabo was willing stand judgment but was assured b his own guilt and harshness he could not be forgiven - not that he didn't want it but he was sure it would not happen.Horus literally has a full conspiracy against him and by current lore as soon as he turned traitor he became a meat puppet for the 4 god's and was no longer in control until a brief moment before he was obliterated, which he welcomed and begged for.ONLY Lorgar was in his full faculties, unscathed and with complete knowledge of the enemy and the corruption. His godling tier brain and reasoning damn him more than anything else.I would argue that also makes Huron Blackheart only slightly under Lorgar.
>>582717215but you can only have 1 of those in your entire faction!
>>582717561You can get multiple if it gets revived at end of battle
>>582717196>Heroic AI declares war on you and sails a stack across the world to sack your settlement.

I don't like sacking at all makes ur stack stay there way more than necessary

>>582718172I wish people would stop fixing CA's shit for free
why doesn't loot and occupy give you the same amount of money as sacking. When I first saw that option I thought "oh this must be so you don't have to sack then occupy" but you can still do that and its still better
Well this is the most random thing to happen in any of my games. Usually Settra stays in Africa and sometimes takes over Italy/Spain.
>>582717215Yeah?
>>582718017>>582718172>the big FLC feature is end times events>all 3 are horrendously buggy, sometimes hardlock level buggysasuga horsham
warsphinx was so slippery it kept running away from Nagash. I also really need to get my regen corpse cart recruited.
>>582718257Unfortunately CA is not good enough to fix this in any timely capacity.
>>582717660but cheesing is bad sportsmanship and very legend-esque(derogatory)

>>582718507The sphinx is tricky given you don't havem uch in the way of anti-large early. I just tied it up with two spearskellies who I sacrificed and then ganked it with the morghasts and Nagash after Settra was perished.
>>582718351SETTRA RULESSSSSS
I cant decide to play Nagash and scour the world into undeath or go turn 30 all crises and rage at the dying of the light as Kroq'gar....
How do you get these missions?
>>582718897Thanquol actually has a linear story in the form of mission text. Just follow the plot and you'll get there.
>>582718707after Nagash these Morghasts have been the most baller unit in this army. Feels like they shred everything from chaff to lords.
>thanquol and a second stack move in the perfect placement for me to use neferata's block army power to stop the second stack from reinforcing and fuck thanquol's russy>misclick and block thanquol instead>his second can reinforce just fine>reload because clearly it was the game's fault>this time his armies don't move this way at all and the plan is completely foiledOut-schemed again
What are the 3 end times events? I know Archaon's has 5 settlements spawn under his control while razing anything controlled by non-order factions and he has 100% ward save across his army.What's Nagash and Thanquol's?
>>582718686Why even bother with ANY aliasing? Just turn it off for Christ's sake. This nigga is vibecoding a whole pile of shit claiming that "frame gen has come to Warhammer 3" when lossless scaling has been useable with this game for three years now.
Tzeentch is a bit of a cheat code faction.
>>582718897lvl him up, the standard way
>>582719746What's the cheat code
>>582720027Tzeentch
They should remove the 'gains a free random mount' upgrade for vampire lairs, it's pointless when you can just give them level ups instead and unlock mounts for free.
Y we no get lizardmen end times?
>>582720078That one is probably the worst. It's not even a cheap upgrade.
Does anyone have a gelt reskin like this?

ai doesnt lvl up anymore simply by existing?
I have finished reading up on space marine legions and their primarchs to form an opinion!The Ultramarines, Blood Angels and Salamanders are exactly as good as I had assumed they were. Though I gotta say, the Salamanders seem to end up being kinda lame in how they skipped most of the action in the Heresy because they got knocked out first and Vulkan spent 99% of it just getting tortured, going insane, getting fucked up again, then being made to stand guard in the Throne Room. In the end, Vulkan's last battle isn't even with the Salamanders either, it's with the Fists.Blood Angels memes about suddenly seeing everyone as Horus are some of the funniest memes of all space marines.Ultramarines are the paragon Commander Shepard of 40k. Guilliman's mom was sweet and I like primarchs having good relations with their foster families that humanize them fuckyouPerturabo.Jagathai was just an awesome primarch, kind of a dick sometimes, but really admirable dude who kept shit real. His chapter afterwards is just kinda meh though actually. Space Wolves are awesome as a chapter, I like the viking vibe, their characters are all cool (specially Bjorn and Grimnar) and I like that they're the only marines that know how to throw a proper party, but Leman Russ is a mixed bag. Good bro at the best of times, absurdly stupid hypocrite at the worst, he's one of my favorites at times and at others I almost wish he'd lost against Magnus instead and had to sit out the Heresy.And Rogal Dorn and the general history of the Imperial Fists was my biggest surprise, I love these guys. I also don't know why exactly but I really like that the whole chapter just got completely wiped out during the War of the Beast and got remade by all their successors coming together to revive it. Rogal resisting Khorne yelling into his mind for two centuries (in his mind) is the greatest MVP moment of all primarchs imo.
The issue with the chaos armies right now is that they instantly regen all casualties after a fight so they are always at full power until they are killed. Because of this, only the player can kill them off and makes it so that the End Times is just the player vs chaos. It doesn't feel like a team effort like back in WH1 because the AI just avoids chaos armies because it can predict that they will lose the auto resolve anyway. Instead, chaos armies should eventually suffer being grinded down by order factions sacrificing armies at them to weaken them so that you can actually feel the rest of the world is putting up a resistance.
>>582720689Corvus Corax is so close to being the ideal primarch, except for one fucking aspect. He's such a hypocrite about stanning for the Emperor and the Imperium while being all about freedom fighting. But I guess the fact that he made sure the planets he "liberated" were actually treated well and liked being in the Imperium, and the fact he turned into a FUCKING AWESOME RAVEN LOYALIST DAEMON PRIMARCH WHO MAKES SURE LORGAR STAYS IN HIS FUCKING GOONCAVE COWERING IN FEAR FOR 10 MILLENNIA makes up for it. Also Corax joins Guilliman in the "also had a mother figure that supported him as a primarch" club. The Raven Guard have emo haircuts though, so I cannot in good conscience make them one of my favorites as a chapter though. I dunno, do the beakie helmets make up for it?The Dark Angels are 50/50. I like Lion (though he is a complete prick pre-revival) and I like how much his redemption arc seems taken out of arthurian legend and he basically becomes the 40k Green Knight. I like arthurian vibes in general, and I REALLY like the Watchers in the Dark, cute little fellas. I'm not impressed by the Fallen plot though. It's like the Dark Angels are just high on their own fumes and don't realize that every legion had it's traitors during the Heresy, they're not special for them. Also the interrogated Fallen shittalking Lion by asking where he was during it is fucking hilarious when you consider that Guilliman came back and could explain, but won't because it's embarrassing.And the Iron Hands... does anyone even like them? Why? Why wouldn't you just go for the far cooler transhumanists, the AdMech? Ferrus had a couple cool moments, specially drowning a necron dragon in magma, but ultimately he was just there to complete Fulgrim's character arc, and the Iron Hands characterization starts and ends at "dickheads", but without capitalizing on it like the Marines Malevolent.
>>582720821Like the whole point of Kislev is to be enough of a stumbling block that Chaos can be stopped by the empire after they finish killing Kislev.
>>582717489From this post I can only assume Horus heresy is well regarded off of vibes rather than quality of writing
>>582720840Ferrus literally only exists to make Fulgrim more interesting.
>>582720821its not just that they definitely get bs auto resolveI saw like 3 delf stacks + garrison get obliterated by one shitter chaos stack
okay guys new rule you can only post in /twg/ if you are having fun
>>582720098That would be hilarious. End Times start, dinosaurs go to space, all lizard factions destroyed. The End.
>>582721308Nah, like a proper lizardmen EGC on the same tier as the end times.Like... Dwarves get one, Welves get one, I don't *think* tomb kings get one anymore, Chorfs have theirsBut lizardmen are the other faction that would totally go all out killing everyone
>>582720098After the Chaos Moon nearly destroys the planet, The Dinos went "That's it, fuck this, we're outta this shithole", turned their temples into space ships, and fucked off.That's actual canon.
I ain't reading that and 40k character drama is weaker than WHFB and that's a comically low bar. The entire Horus Heresy being a multivolume book after book anthology where nerds seriously get into the "motivations" of characters who are pastiches like Mongols riding motorcycles is pathetic. 40k is a fun universe, but its characters and how they act are at best light reading fodder with fun space adventure theming and not some serious attempt at complex character building. I cannot understand that people look at the Horus Heresy books as some titanic work to be understood and not a massive waste of time as no grown ass man in his right mind should seriously believe that there's more than 1 or 2 worth reading.It is impossible for me to understand, it boggles the mind to think that people see some 20+ books of Lorgoth fighting Bogrim and are like "this is worth my time and I NEED to read it"
>>582721484Because they didn't. Their ET event was creating a magic barrier around Lustria and saying fuck off we're full but it turned out their barrier only blocked servants of the four main chaos gods and did not repel Skaven
They must remember DLC for Wood Elves and Dark Elves.High Elves already got Aislinn.
>>582721124As the anon posting how I've read about every primarch and legion lately, I've found no less than THREE fucking versions of what happened to Magnus during the siege of Terra and each one of them just feel like a new author rewriting over what the previous one added because they totally know best.
>>582721605>>582721648I know. But that's boring.Dwarves didn't do anything but die painfully in the End Times.
yea bros 3rd time the charm
>>582721701fuck wood elvesthe most annoying enemy to fight
>>582721701Welves will not be getting another DLCDark Elves will not be getting another DLC.They MIGHT get a Malekith rework though.But not before the Siege Rework, Bretonnia Rework, Egrimm FLC and maybe even Kurt Helborg
>>582721635I disagree because while the Horus Heresy has some shit writing, at least it's not Malekith and the entire elven history of Warhammer Fantasy. It doesn't get shittier than that.
>>582720689>>582720840What about Curze?
>>582721814That's like 3/4ths of the setting though, if anything the liggers blasting off is more than most got to the point I don't even see it as particularly bad. Ogres, TK, Brets, and Kislev get written off instantly, for instance
We really need someone to leak something.
So I have never touched Tretch ever. But I can confederate him, and to keep a story short, he's in a tactical position that benefits me. What EXACTLY does he bring to the table? Is he worth the Confed over Ikit? I've managed to grab Queek before Gorebad ate his last settlement up. Skrolk got eatn by Lizards, and I'm trying to find out if Snitkch is alive or not (probably not).
Bretonnia is the most in need of an update but who else after them? I feel that most races have pretty fun campaigns at the moment aside from Asrai but that's kind of unavoidable with how the faction is setup. I would personally like to see some new druchii stuff. Cathay dragon emperor/empress along with new chorf LL would be nice too.Also my cuhrayzee pick would be official grudgebringer mercenary faction.
>>582721814Dwarfs were already a dying Empire/Race. But at least they took some bastards out with 'em.At least Thorogrim got a sendoff murdering the piss out of Queek, while Cathay got poofed without much in lore.
>>582721994>New *Malerion* End Times crisis>Unified Elves>The major settlements to raze are the Oak of ages, Lothern, Naggarond, and Hag Graef
>>582722103>What EXACTLY does he bring to the table?Nothing, he's dogshit. The landmark in crookback is more valuable than him.
>>582722085Ogres joined up with Greenskins and actually got a cool run for it.But Kislev and Bretonians juts got wiped lmao.So did the Southern Realms, which got caught between skaven and tomb kings, and Cathay which got 1 line of explanation.
>>582722031I talked about him (and all the traitors) before, I really liked him. He was also a surprise because from an outside view, he seemed like a super one dimensional character who was just the most obvious traitor ever, instead he was one of the most engaging.I think from the traitors my favorites ended up being Curze, Magnus and Lorgar, with Angron and Fulgrim just one tier below. The only one I ended up on "Just no" was Mortarion. I don't find a single thing to like about that guy, not as a villain, not as a tragic tale.
>>582722519Morty is just Pathetic.He's a bitch who could see the eye of terror.
>>582722692Jagathai Khan dueling Mortarion and one of his insults being that Typhus is the real primarch and the one he actually should be dueling was one of the best fucking lines of all.Though the primarch that was constantly seeing the Eye of Terror was Perturabo, not Mortarion.
>>582722445Just checked the landmark. God DAMN that would be good. And I can always suicide auto-resolve Rictus to retake some lands. I'm trying to get the Naggishar landmark, and also get some lands for Kugath so I can get some Nurgle units for the hey of it.But again, Ikit is fun, and he has most of Bretonnia. and I get the Capital of Skavenblight which is a personal win.Hrmm choices choices.
>>582721484That sounds way less cool. The dinos yearn for the sky.We'd just turn it off anyway cause those suck. In a week nobody will have those endgame scenarios on either. I'm already prepared to just console delete Archaon. I just wanna see the events once.
>>582722103>Skrolk got eatn by LizardsWhat do you guys even do in these situations? Is it actually feasible to try to revive their factions through rebellions?
>>582722957Skavenblight is way more valuable than Tretch
>watch Turin play a MP game>maps are so small and the pace of the game so fast you're basically just spending 99% of the time moving icons around at max zoom>might as well play it from the tactical mapI genuinely dont see how anyone can find this entertaining, its not even total war, just nondescript RTS battle
I have had all three on for every campaign i've started since 9.0 launched and i've never seen any of them because I get bored and quit the campaign on short victory..
>>582723074>The dinos yearn for the sky
>>582723630Yes.Why else would the spino run infront of the plane? It wanted to go up with its lizard brothers.
>>582723075It's not worth the effort sonce corruption/the lack of corruption can affect what rebels you actually getJust use cheats if you want em that badly
>>582723075I'd prolly do it through that diplomacy mod. I think only if you want a hardcore Pestellins themed army. But that requires being able to open a front in Lustria, across the ocean, surrounded by whatever faction won the Lustriabowl, meaning...>Dinos>Delves>Khorne>Green ChinaUnless hell freezes and somehow The Huntmarshal's Expedition does it. SOMEHOW.
>>582723906I wish CA just added options like the Dwarf/Vampire ones, where you fulfill X conditions and get to confederate them even if they're already dead.
>>582723387Almost all of his sycophants are failed starcraft/other RTS pros and ladder chasers who like being small fish in a puddle.
>>582724278Yeah I mean I figured that was the case when I first started looking at the "pro" scene for TW, sad honestly. And then they have the audacity to complain about balance and shit too
>>582719664>NiggashHe spawns at the Black Pyramid and then slowly floats with it towards Niggyshizzy.During this time his Mortarchs all spawn across the world.For every Mortarch alive when Niggash hits Niggyshizzy, Nagash has a power bonus in battle and can turn +1 province into undead wasteland.Killing Mortarchs after he hits niggyshizzy no longer weakens him, but you can teleport to fight him there at any time after he arrives.You cannot intercept him before he gets there.His Undead Wasteland territories spawn undead armies to ravage everyone, and if he turns the majority of the world into wasteland you get a gameover.>ThanquolAll of the major skaven places become super fortified.Skaven units double in size.Skaven undercities have a 20% chance to spread every turnSkaven undercities can no longer be burned out the normal way, you have to build a special building to eitherA) Force an army battle that temporariyl removes themB) Nuke the settlement so it can't be recolonized for several turns, to remove them from the province for a whileC) I don't rememberYou have to beat enough key skaven forces to figure out what their plan is and then quest battle to end it.Also uncleared undercities start to build nukes, with it implied that if they get enough they nuke the entire world
>>582722103Imagine a Chieftain as a Lord with regeneration. That's it.
>>582724670That is why people rage when MP comes up regarding balance. Its mostly just whatever Turin and his circlejerk all agree on. There was a time in WH2 where they actually had balance so fucked up for MP that chaos skirmish cav was superior to wood elf archers of any calibre.They also have rules about not using cover, terrain, trees, LoS, moving backwards, not moving forwards enough, not picking 'unfair' comps and so on.
>>582724875Does he at least have useful talents to buff or discount something?For context, here are his lands. If I confed him. I would use his territories as a springboard to retake lands from the blue roses, grab Naggashir for the landmark, and open up a second front against Gorebad.
My Necrarch lord was acting like hot shit entering battle against a dwarven doomstack, until I realized we had 20 winds of magic.What's worse, I tried to turtle in a blob while I killed the catapults, and Thorek reminded me that he gets access to embedded spells by sending a lighting bolt straight in the middle of my blob slaughtering 200 skeletons, and that's when i realized the battle was truly lost.
>>582725389Meanwhile, here's Ikit's Lands. From here I could instead take up what's left of Belegar, Brettonia, and the remnants of The Empire, before figuring out how best to deal with the Wood Elves, without having to build in their Unsuitable Climate territories. Then I could go across to the donut, grab that province where the Altar of Khaine landmark is for the funs, and get some money and good boy points selling it to Slaanesh. Might even start a fight with the Lizards if they want it. Also Thanquol IS there.
>>582710676>the winner fucks the loser
>>582721701>>582721907>>582721994Who's even left to add? And why? And for the love of god, Why are we going to have 10-11 Warriors of Chaos?
>>582718351And the Frogs are invading the donut now?

>you can just walk a properly leveled bone daddy into any army, any settlement, any battle, completely alone, and just solo it while coming out at full hp with nothing more than the equipment he gets from questsSUCH IS THE POWER OF NAGASH
>>582728896One man doomstacks have existed for ages.
>>582729121They are progressively getting easier to makeApart from bullshit like Malus, most lords take a while before they can solo armies on their own, meanwhile my level 10 Nagash one shotted repanse and then solo killed her entire army + settlement garrison while the rest of my army watched from outside the walls.
