Thanquol soon, friends!
Will this lord be able to defeat Karl Franz in a 1v1:Golgfag Maneater:U'zhul Skulltaker:Arbaal the Undefeated:Gorbad Ironclaw:
Blue Horrors of Nurgle
>>48361013840k doesn't bother with w*men
>>483611280Skulltaker should be able to
>>483611280Gorbad loses because Deathclaw fucks with Ghal Maraz active.
>>483611280Lorewise all except Arbaal should be able to beat Karl in a 1 vs 1. Gameplay wise I suspect Karl will beat Golgfag. I mean if Stykaar can kick Arbaal's ass in Storms of Chaos timeline in a one on one fight then Karl should be able to as well because Styrkaar has no special equipment unlike Karl.
Remember to thank LegendofTotalWar for saving this DLC
What kind of name is U'zhul. How do we even pronounce that?Oozul?
>>483609987Leilith Hesperax, she got a new book so they'll shill her
>>483611337They said the same about Custodes.
Will Skulltaker be able to ride a Blood Throne? Because I really want that.
Revert the Vlad nerfs.
After the Slaanesh 3-way DLC would you prefer another 3-way DLC or a Race Pack?
>>483611786Khorne named him U'Zhul because it rhymes with useful. It helps Khorne remind himself that this guy is one of the good ones.
>>483611880>Leilith HesperaxI can fix her btw
>>483611895No they didn't

>>483611303>Who is Roboute Guillieman fucking? It's a dark elf isn't it?Only to some extent? Yvrainne was born in Biel-Tain, the eldar supremacist craftworld, turned to the corsair life for a while and then went to commorragh to fight as gladiator.
>>483612226I feel like DoW will be a safe betwith how many assets are re-used I almost think they could be a DLC thoughif we get a FLCLL with Slaanesh it might be Thanquol for the 100th
>>483609987not for monkeigh
>>483612226If Neferata is in the Slaanesh pack I would rather them do Dogs of War next. If Neferata is not in Slaanesh then they need to do the 3-way that has Neferata.
>>483612634They also aren't fucking
>>483612332>fix herAbsolutely disgusting.
What are the odds we get Red Duke in Mousillon for Vampire Counts and then Mallobaude taking the spot of the current VC lord in that area of the map (throw him in the wastelands or something idk)
>>483612631Dechala LLMasque LHNagash isn't TK
>>483612631Why would they waste Nagash with 2 factions that have jack and shit to do with him
>>483612969Nagash was part of the proto tomb kings with Setra in the earlier additions before they split it off into their own race. Nagash didn't make it into that tomb kings edition but he leader had his own race.
>>483612967zero percentthe Red Duke isn't even from Mousillon, his faction is a rogue army right nowMallobaude is the Duke of Mousillon
I want wegh to piss in my eyes
>>483612857>they aren't fuckingTell that to the community.
Campfire Coast buff: 8 model carronades and mortars, zero accuracy
>>483612335Yes they did.
>>483613353Show me the source
>>483613148No, no he wasn'tEven in Warhammer Undead he was his own progenitor faction flavorwise
>>483612332>I can fix her btwThis is a literal female thought process. They used to joke about this all the time in old comedies, the old women dating "bad boys" meme. When did modern men become such huge faggots?
>>483613204wegh is not meant for this sort of thing
The Karl Franz campaign is still too hard and I am NOT joking.
>>483613148>Nagash was part of the proto tomb kingsNagash is from Nehekhara. That doesn't make him a Tomb King character.
>>483612969>>483613071he is probably talking about nagash being part of the 4th edition undead army which had a tomb king army before they existed with Settra and Nagash as the Legendary Lords. This was before they started splitting up the undead into seperate races like Vampire Counts, Tomb Kings, and of Course the 8th edition race Undead Legions which is when Nagash returned to Tabletop.
>>483613548not with ironsides and outriders available from every minor settlement it isnt
>>483613512Oh damnis this the same guy who drew Settra vs the horde of Snotlings and stuff
>>483613445
God I hope CA Sofia will be working on the Slaanesh dlc.
>>>483610913 didn't take any photo but greasus got absolutely murdered by grimgor and tamurkhan in melee, I had to cast gluttony twice just to keep him from getting annihilated, I've not really spec'd into the combat line though, I went blue line to deal with grimgor's waaaghs.
>>483613693ye
>>4836135894th edition Undead army was much closer to VC than to Tomb Kings. Even Settra was a necromancer back then, kidnaping people and using them to create an army of undead.
>>483612857t. official imperial recorder
>>483613823Infinite soul
>>483613819>I've not really spec'd into the combat line thoughThere you go, the AI had specced yellow for their combat lords.
God I hope CA Sofia will be working on Neferata's fat tits.
I feel like i'm the only one who wants robin hood (frenchman)
>>483614017Yes, you are. Fuck bretonnia
>>483613909agreedthis guys drawings are kino
>>483613978Big fat HAT. The biggest of them all putting Arkhan and Astragoth to shame.
>>483613813Anon, Sofia might as well change their name to "Warhammer support studio" at this point.
>>483613978I hope CA Sofia will be adding Fighting Advance/Retreat and also some very obnoxiously enormous headwear for her
>>483614291Good ending
>Sofia working on DLC and probably reworksYep we're getting armed to da teef for black orcs.
>>483614716Black Orcs (Flail infantry)
>>483614074I get that liking bretonnia is like going to an all you can eat buffet and only getting chicken fingers and fries. won't stop me from liking what I like. more tendies please.
Gitilla doesn't even have art right? I could see them making his design pretty cool
Why does khorne have the lore of light?
>>483614291I'm still not convinced that WH3 DLC will be enough for a studio of Sofia's size, at the minimum they'll have some side project in development.That said it's a good fit for them. Not to shit on their work but outside the lightning-in-a-bottle Epic deal with Troy I doubt that they have been particularly profitable with their DLCs or games. WH3 DLC should boost their numbers while they work on something else in tandem.
>>483615216FUCK UNDEATHGET THEM SKULLS
>>483615027No, liking bretonnia is like eating dog shit.
Warhammer is all good and well but i really crave a Medieval game spanning from 1050 to 1780s. Just imagine CA supporting that kind of game for 10 years, doing every major player justice. Unique units, quality music and VA, historical faction mechanics, detailed and very customizable family tree etc.I wish 40k wasnt such an inevitability...
>>483615280They'll be handling DLC, reworks and balance, it's more than enough. And since new content is also coming in non-dlc patches means they're putting their weight behind it.
>>483615572>Unique units>MedievalLel
>slaanesh DLC confirmedhas to be dechala right?the masque is kinda shit and nobody cares (LH potential though) and all the other slaanesh characters are AoS
>>483615993Yes. Unlike Arbaal, Dechala is too expensive for FLC.
>>483615993>has to be dechala right?>the masque is kinda shitDechala has no model sold anymore and was erased from saaneshii lore in AOS. Masque is the literal opposite. If they chose Skulltaker they will chise the Masque.
>>483616309>Dechala has no model sold anymore and was erased from saaneshii lore in AOSshe literally got a short story called "the denied" in AoS
>>483615867Medfags deluded themselves into believing that changing a name on a unit makes it unique.
>>483615572I always pictured a 2 game map, the first being the standard europe/north africa/middle east and then a sequel that focuses on the mongols and adds all of east and south asia.
>>483615216Sakhmet's Incantation of the Skullstorm was too much to resist
>>483615993>Blue Scribes LH>Epidemius FLC LL>Skulltaker DLC LLImpossible to say, the Heralds have been all over the fucking place.
>>483616703>Epidemius and Skulltaker have daemonic loci, are LLs>Blue Scribes don't have a daemonic locus, is LHit's not all over the place, it's just that no one bothers to read the book and pick up on obvious patterns>>483615993yes, especially since the only missing Slaanesh units are snakes and elves
What are the most unique RoRs in TW? I know that dark elves have a dark rider RoR the flies. Any other RoRs with such extreme changes to the basic unit?
Playing slanesh for first time and holy fuck I keep thinking my game is at x2 speed these guys are FAST
>>483615993I imagine one will be dlc and the other flc, no legendary heroes, so they at least have the 3 LL per chaos god down.Not like Slaanesh didn't already have Sigvald strutting around, so in terms of total characters, it'd put them about on par with the rest.
>should be dragging myself through 10 hours of elden ring so I can maybe play the 30 hour dlc >start another thorek campaign insteadIm not going to make the mistake of trying to ally Khalida again, cock-gar must be appeased at all costs so I can actually play the game
>>483615993I think it could be either Styrkaar, Dechala or Masque. Hard to say what they will do. Styrkaar in theory could be the Legendary Hero, but he can be the FLC Lord just as easily. Styrkaar's exploits are more Lord-ish, but the same can be said of Helbrass. Most likely is>DLC Lord Dechala>DLC Hero Styrkaar >FLC Lord MasqueDechala makes by far the most sense if they expand on Slaaneshi Elves
I called bloodvultures some time ago, feels nice
>>483616604What ? Are you well anon ?I ask you about WF equivalent so i can put them on the picture so other retards stop complaining about "muh using AOS image".
>>483617180The DLC is great. Current patch isn't worth playing after what they done to Vlad.
>>483617305Or you could just play Vlad and still win because you're good at the game and don't care about Helstorms (Purple Suns) or Thunderbarges
>>483617517I spit on the dev that made this change.
>>483615993>LLElf Dechala>LHElf >Lord Elf Anointed>UnitElves Devoted of Slaanesh
>>483617305Vlad will only suffer slightly against Elspeth and only because the AI is too retarded to use winds of death instead of spamm invocation
>>483613231community art constitutes almost all my references to 40k lore
>>483617709Anointed elves are ugly and look like niggers. Which says a lot about traanesh.
>>483617825I already uninstalled the game. Not touching it as long as they revert the changes. I'll be playing Rome w and the other TW we can't talk about.
>>483617907You mom look like anointed
>>483617180i had fun replaying elden ring, but did mistake of doing it like 4 weeks before dlc dropped and by the time it released i no longer have inspiration to play it
>>483617864The legendary quaternary poster
>>483617305>Vlad
>zombie dragons were buffed
It's kind of amazing how many female Legendary Lords this game has, and they didn't even push the "forced diversity" button that much (maybe only Cylostra).Warhammer Fantasy is (strangely) full of women
are flamers/changebringers viable as the ranged main dps or just as support? ammo is kinda hurting
i wish the coomer who made these ported the faces into a mod for the game, his repanse and sisters of twilight look good
>>483613978I really have no idea why people pretend to care about her so much.
>>483619481It's a fantasy game
>>483619481yeah it turns out a lot of old fantasy universes have plenty of ("powerful") women when you aren't a reductionist SJW who's never actually engaged with them. Whoops! oh well, they deserved to be destroyed anyway because men enjoyed them.
>>483611106Why do people still play unfun total war trash?
>>483616942I had a lot of fun with them and I played them pre buffs/tweaks and no dlc/taken away units. You have to set up hard to get them into proper position though. They will melt to ranged and guess which factions you're fighting as nkari.
>>483619956Yes, now fuck off to your chink gacha general
>Alberic's model is still just a generic Bret lordHow did CA get away with it for so long?
>>483619907Only powerful woman in Fantasy is Morathi. Everyone else is just a different flavor of jobber or window dressing.
>>483619481>Cylostrashe's literally a "it's not over until the fat lady sings" joke I'm going to kill myself why does no one get the joke
>>4836194912 or 4 of them enough in an army. You need to wait for a good oppurtunity before using their ammo.They do suprisingly well in a Tzaangor army. Tzaangors can hold enemy pretty well and they dont melt with a little friendly fire unlike daemons.
>>483620130No one really care for Brettonia until recently. Like no one played them on various game statistics.
>>483620130Alberic IS a generic Bretonnian lord.
>>483620297Morathi isnt even powerful, just a slut.
>>483620297not only is that completely false, everyone is a "jobber" under archaon anyway
Cylostra is awesome. Very fun model, VA and lore. Her unique hero and ghost knights are amazing to use.
>>483620516>Morathi isnt even powerful,She actually figured out how to destabilize the vortex and blow up the world remotely. And she will do it Mally ever dies.
>>483620398I get the joke, it's just not a good joke.being a joke doesn't immediately make a wholesale addition to WHFB good
>>483619645It's only fitting that Repanse have a horse face after all
>>483620632Archaon once tried his luck in Naggaroth and his army was chased away by no-name sorceress.
>>483620946Naggaroth gets destroyed in the ends times.
Alright so here is all the potential tabletop legendaries for a Slaanesh dlc.LL: Styrkaar(Only 8th edition character)LL/LH: Nastasya RoskolnikovLL/LH: Masque of SlaaneshLH: Qae'larne, enraptured of SlaaneshLH: VandredLH: DechalaDechala is the only one that didn't have a 6th edition or later model since she was written out and replaced by Vandred.So who are the potential LLs and LHs? We know they promote LHs a lot to LLs but no LL only has been downgraded to LH seems to be a game workshop. For characters with Hybrid LL/LH they seem to pick either for them.
>>483620632grimgor beat archaon, dabbed on him, and left
>>483620657>very fun VA>click on diplo>receive permanent hearing damageKayzk is more tolerable
>>483620657Strangely people seem to not appreciate her despite her many good points.
>>483621454>pick faction of pirates>choose to play the dead bretonnian civilian whose magic power is mysteriously not dying for some reason>with cavalry>that dies of death after 60 secondsunironically play any other vampire coast lord and ally recruit a single unit of black/blood knights
I was reading my "Ogre Kingdoms" army book and the page about Ironguts mentions the myth of "When Bolgut Fell Ill".I think it's some kind of joke or reference to British culture, but I don't get it and I'm not sure.If you google that sentence in quotes you can find the full reference.Does anybody at all have any idea what it's referencing?
>>483621312She has the voice of a fat angel, you tasteless faggot.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwfJFFrie7c
Im gonna play warhammer 3 for first time, last time I played was warhammer 2 like two years agois nurgle fun?
>>483621270>Forgetting about Panyck the Manic
How my DEI Media campaign is going me on the left
>>483620516Anon Morathi is one of the most powerful magic users in the setting
>>483622214selling your pussy aint magic incel
>>483621802Why is the image mirrored?
>>483621696Those are the KNIGHTS she DAMNED. Her entourage to Ulthuan consisted of those Knights, Barhelomew being her personal bodyguard. They defended her against ships captain and crew when she killed the captain and took over the ship.After that Manann/Mathlann took a liking to her i guess.This is like tolkien lvl of quality lore when you compare it to the "canon" lores of other warhammer hero/lords.
Tzeentch third LL?
>>483621914Panyck the Maniac is a beastman.
>>483622395It should be Van Horstmann.He was Archaon before Archaon
>>483613445People have been coping that it's never said explicitly the women can't be part of the Custodes but there really is no other reason to take this. I dunno why GW tried to blatantly lie to people and instead just wrote a simple explanation that recently the Custodes have had some crossover with Sisters of Silence or something.
>>483622352Fuck >>483621718
>>483622385What does the Lore of Deeps have to do with JRR Tolkien?
>>483622395Has to be mortal so either Egrimm or Melekh.
>>483622446And Tamurkhan is a Warrior of Chaos, but they still belong with their God
>>483620130Alberic's original form is a literal paragraph>>483621270>Styrkaar (only 8th edition char)he's from 6th edition and his model was technically a generic Chaos Lord of Slaanesh>LH: Dechalashe's explicitly a faction leader and more significant than any of these other characters>>483622385VCoast DLC has a lot of Stromfels shenanigans going on
Is it just me or are goblin wolf chariots kind of fun? They seem good at knocking infantry around, does trampling/knocking them around do damage though?
TRETCHCRAVENTAILLORDOFTHEGODVERMIN
Cylostra Direskub
>>483622661Tamurkhan is a weird case because on one hand he should have been WoC Nurgle rep instead of Festus but on the other hand having Archaon be able to confederate him would be a travesty.
What LL has the SIGMA MALE GRINDSET.
>>483622869Knocking down a unit also deals a fixed amount of damage.Shoving around units that are already lying down does zero damage.Only the first impact counts
>>483622514*way to take this, whoops
>>483622893>specialist low interval infantry lose to massed higher interval infantrysay it ain't so
>>483622729Styrkaar has 8th edition rules not just 6th edition. He is the only one of those listed that has 8th edition rules. I don't know why you think Dechala would be a faction leader she definitely wasn't anywhere in lore. She was explictly replaced by Vandred because her whole backstory contradicts lore since Elves can't be physically corrupted by Chaos. Which is why Morathi never mutated. The only one that really led armies in lore was Styrkaar who led the Slaanesh chaos forces under Archaeon in both Storms of Chaos and End Times. My personal choice is Nastsya since she is a spell caster and should be paired with a Kislev dlc.
>>483621864Unless they fixed the gameplay loop, it's the most cancerous campaign there is, in both meanings of the word.I played at the beginning of IE and did three restarts because of how fucked his economy is and his playstyle is completely countered by the zombie dude next to you.
>>483623042Wulfric, (whether he wants it or not)
>>483623042Balthasar Gelt
>>483621270>LL: Styrkaar(Only 8th edition character)He is not from 8th edition
>>483623485>>483623190by "only 8th edition" he means that the character is the only one on the list who had 8th edition rules, I gather
>>483623042Volkmar is THE sigmar male
>>483622963Coulda had Valnir
>>483622395Galrauch
>>483623190>Styrkaar has 8th edition rules not just 6th editionwhere faggot>I don't know why you think Dechala would be a faction leader she definitely wasn't anywhere in loremaybe check her lore retard>Elves can't be physically corrupted by Chaosthat's a blatant lie
VCoast 5th (fifth) LL?
I got an Amon'Chakai loading screen todaywhat is Fate trying to tell me?
>>483623292Alright fuckWhat about slanesh? Seems like he starts in donut, maybe that familiarity would be nice
>>483623042Greasus. He could be a slave to his desires but he thinks outside the box to provide for them AND make fat stacks.
>>483624021Rewatch The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance
>>483624007Bro they had to make up the 4th (fourth) and the 3rd (third) doesn't even make sense within the faction
>>483621312this but for drycha>OKASSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERAthe quick deal button becomes quite the hazard once we meet
>>483623169>he doubts the sheer power to TRETCH CRAVENTAILfool.
>>483624007Vangheist by a long shot, people were pissed he didn't make it inSkretch Half-Dead has unit potential>>483624196only because GW had a dumb stipulation that they having 3 Dreadfleet LLs would somehow make it "not Vampire Coast"
>>483623987Are we doing this again?Dechala is from a weird extended fetishism about princess rape which doesn't line up with the rest of the setting, which repeatedly reiterates that elves do not generally suffer the physical effects of chaos corruption
>>483624101A little cancerous because ranged fucks your guys up and guess who your main enemy is, but once you figure out your army's speed advantage and the special campaign mechanic, you snowball quickly 2nd only to Khorne.
>>483624205Contrarily, I liked Drycha constantly screaming on the campaign mapSame with the Mortis Engine constantly screaming in the battle map>>483624007Nanosh (actual vampire)Vangheist (lmao)LH Drekla since Kazyk is faction locked they don't need to go to everyone anymore
>>483624362take your meds schizo
Why so many of slanesh guys have crab pincers? Why crabs?
>>483624362Look up "Druchii Anointed"
>>483624101Slaneesh is very micro intensive since you have to be abusing charge bonus constantly for your units to not suck and the roster is full of holes atmIf you want to play a chaos god you should keep in mind that all of them go balls deep in their respective theme so they play very different from other factions, the simplest one is khorne since his units are busted in melee, skarbrand is a doomstack on his own and his main faction mechanic is just "kill things", though it's kinda boring if you don't enjoy rightclicking on the enemy army and watching them melt.
>>483623190>Styrkaar has 8th edition rulesHe is not in the army book.(actually i'm not sure he even get rules and gears in 6th edition)
>>483624907https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crab_louse
>>483624692I've had to read this same fucking argument from what I assume to be the same small group of people several times nowI don't give a shit about your weird deflection, you had documents ready to go>>483624963the SoC cult of pleasure elves are literally just a reskin their eyes and skin "color" changedthat's not even remotely close to the chaos mutation experienced by anyone else
>>483623190>>483624362>Elves don't get corruptedExcept when they are by Slaanesh, like the Anointeds and their "demonic gift"?
>>483625154>UMM ELVES DOn'T MUTATE THOSE MUTATIONS DON'T COUNT DECHALA ISN'T CANON BECAUSE RAPE>>483624907it's a pun on vices/vises
>>483611337They replaced Ursakar E. Creed with his great-niece, Ursula E. Creed.
>>483624362Dechala is in End Times you dumb faggot, from GW's perspective she is canon, no matter how much you cope.
>>483622514Giving Custodes their own army was stupid to begin with.
>>483625518>>483625467growing a fucking snake tail and four arms is way different from getting a reverse tan or spawning out
>>483617239me too
>>483615147Hm, I wonder why. Why wouldn't they have concept art for this DLC to share with their announcement they've been working on for the last 8 months, since Shadows of Change development finished? They had it for all the initial WH3 stuff.
>>483625742I'm not talking about implied Legend bullshitI mean, Gitilla has never had an actual design so if he is their LH choice they can design him from scratch
>>483624907The Lobster represents that which is in the darkest depths of water, and dwells at the bottom.Water is the feminine, sensitive part of the Self, which is passive and absorbs feeling, it is the senses. The uncontrollable depths of the sea are the uncontrolled depths of the Self.However, there is also the symbology of the Scorpion, which represents a hidden sting of unexpected metamorphic poison behind a secretive, lurking facade that lurks in the dark.Much like the reliance with the number "6", the symbols of Slaanesh (more than the others) lay in Western occultism....obviously the origin of it is the fact that you were meant to use for the Keeper of Secrets the model of the D&D Glabrezu (while the Bloodthirster was the Balor, the Lord of Change was a Vrock and the Great Unclean One was a Hezrou)....But again, the symbolism of the Glabrezu is Western Daemonology, which takes from Western Occultism, so, once more, the "meaning" is the same, if you want a meaning.

What was your reaction when you saw a representative from CA Sofia in the "What's next" video for Warhammer 3?
>>483628970>literally pulling literal whos with one paragraph worth of lore >when they could just use aos characters
>>483639095>was diverseCA, by multiple accounts, is a highly stratified company and all of the dipshits making the worst decisions are white Anglos at the top who don't know how to manageRich and the CA Sofia guys are great tho
>>483646059we all saw this coming, right?they're the ones who cleaned Horsham's massive fuck ups with Rome 2, it was obvious that after fixing up Pharaoh(the small scale and rushed release schedule was also probably Horsham's fault since they're in charge of the overall franchise and Horsham also made the decision to make HYENAS) they'd be moved on to cleaning up after Horsham againI'm willing to bet it was Sega itself that demanded this, but regardless I'm glad Sofia devs are much more talented overall
Why are people pretending Gorbad is a "dead character" coming back?He never died.He has some explaining to do about where he's been (my bet is the east or chaos wastes fuckery) but he's never been suggested as anything other than missingThe only other regularguys are Morglum Necksnapper and Gorfang Rotgut, the latter being more important but already ingame to a certain extentOglok is a tech lord but he's a subsidiary of Necksnapper anyway
>>483647896I think Gorfang was skipped because they didn't want another LL in the Empirebowl. There's already too many, and Middenland stands no chance as it is.
>>483647896I have no idea who any of those people are.
There are only 5 DLCs left before Total War: Warhammer 3 is put to rest.
>>483648573>Gorfang>Middenlandwhat?He's Red Fangs/Black Cragthe tutorial lord from WH1are you thinking of Snagla Grobspit (whose RoR is already in the game, he's just a unit champion) or some other forest goblin who wouldn't be any more interesting than the existing Raknik Spiderclaw tech lord?
>>483648573Gorbad would be the one in the Empirebowl, he was the one that destroyed Solland. Hopefully he's not near the Empire, it already has enough shit there as is. Greenskins have tons of guys in the Old World anyways, it'd be nice if they put him somewhere interesting.
>>483647896It's stunties. They wanted everyone to think they got the boss, but it turns out he got away again.

>more Goblin LLsI fucking hate Goblin LLs, and it's for the same reason I hate Necromancer LLs. There's no distinction between a Goblin subfaction and an Orc subfaction, nor a Vamp subfaction or Necro subfaction. Reworks when?
Let us say it takes 4 months to make a DLCJust 5 DLC would already put us into 2026. CA will likely have released the next mainline Total War by then.
They should make Iron Rock the capital of its own province. Throw in Karag Dron and maybe a new Badlands region, or maybe just keep it as is, and make that Gorbad's start. Black Crag can have its own province still too, maybe give Death Pass Black Iron Mine while Southern Worlds Edge Mountains can get another region down there.Alternatively, just have Gorbad start in Iron Rock which remains a minor settlement. Though it really ought to be a provincial capital, frankly.
>>483649828Duh. The hope, IMO, is that they stay on track with the next TW game being a Historical game which should give Warhammer some breathing room until 40K comes out in like late 2027/early 2028. That would give us 6-7 DLCs roughly assuming no major hickups.
>>483650245We really need a pike and shot TW with some testing of better skirmisher, hybrid melee/range units, and cover mechanics (needed for future ranged focused TWs), then do 40k, then do WW1. Easiest stepping stone process.
>>483649769what the fuck are you talking aboutthere are no new goblin generals in this updateand none of the characters anyone has talked about besides the essentially deconfirmed forest ones, are goblins
>>483624907the real reason is because gw ripped off some d&d designs for the greater demons and the one they picked for the keeper of secrets happened to have claws. then they really didn't want to depict slaanesh as the coomer god so they decided that instead of horse cocks and multi boobs like you would expect slaanesh = purple and lobster claws.
>>483649769SeetheCopeDilate, even
>>483649769Gorbad is not a goblin retard
>>483646059Pretty happy. CA Sofia actually has talent in it. Hopefully the recent layoffs across CA cleaned out all the useless shits because CA has been incredibly inept recently. Nobody else makes games like they do and they are completely squandering the niche that they have.
>>483650909Unfortunately, these layoffs usually do the opposite of cleaning out useless shits. Management stays because they have seniority and networking, the actual workers are fired because they're expendable. Soup is good food, the union won't protect you.
>>483651221Didn't sega told them to stick to total war games only ?
>>483650814It was pretty funny playing Wrath of the Righteous and realizing the GW of old just went>Balor->Bloodthirster>Vrock->Lord of Change>Glabrezu->Keeper of Secrets>Nalfeshnee->Great Unclean one (No as sure about this one, though)Seeing how the designs for these similar things went in different directions within different companies, resulting in them having similar traits but very different designs is quite neat.
>>483646059>The level of polish and effort that went into Troy is now going into WH3>The level of dedication to restoration that went into Pharaoh is now going into WH3It's a colossal W no trace of doubt in my mind.
BAYI, SHAR'TU!
>>483652119BOK!
>>483652148AZKALA ERKALA!
so are we ever getting more cathay dlc or are they going to be focusing exclusively on old ass races from now on?I'd like to see Cathay vs Vampires personally
>>483652461Many of us would like to see Cathay as Vampires.
>>483652119AHK MANAARASAPH HUTEP
>>483652461If the GW mandate for all five dragon siblings thing is real, I'd expect they'll get one more dlc and an flc lord.
>>483652657Is Astragoth...ZOOLAHOOO!
>>483652774You just reminded me that Tigermen were leaked a while ago and yet a Cathay DLC is not in sight.Perhaps alongside the Slaanesh DLC.
>all my mods are still brokenALL FOR A DOG AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>483653695Get dabbed on, coomer.
This wasn't an issue until I started playing Wh3 again about a month ago. But my fucking game will just randomly fucking black screen of death at a completely random point it may be during a battle or on the campaign screen or anything. Sometimes I'll play for hours no issues, sometimes I'll play for 15 minutes and it'll happen. It's pissing me the hell off. I have a Nvidia 3060
>>483653695Based dog of anticheat
>>483652774I wonder if they'll have the balls to make Yin-Yin a moron like the lorefags paint her assI certainly hope so, based retards are always fun characters
>>483653893cap your framerate and limit your cpu usage in powerplan to like 99%
>>483653893This is a question better suited to CA's tech support, but Has it been happening more often recently or somewhat consistently? As in, has the interval before a crash been shortening?Does it crash your entire computer or just the game?Have you checked the temperature of your rig while you're playing to make sure it's not overheating?
>>483654242
>>483653893I've had plenty of crashes on my 4090It's usually due to mods, 3d portholes not loading for 1 faction in the map or that infamous post battle into crash bug
>>483651835Anon, the Vrock and Lord of Chane are both just Skeksis with the name filed off, same as how Balors and Bloodthirsters are both just LOTR Balrogs with minor changes

>>483658067>Play Empire>Don't recruit wizardsThere's your historical gunmanii game
>>483656992I don't see what's stopping you from making a map mod for Warhammer, the projectiles are all there
>>483658067Watching the enemy walk down a firing line is not interesting.
>>483659843battles in line up and shoot games are far more tactical and dynamic than primitive dark ages games. because your units don't generally get stuck in melee you are free to withdraw and redeploy your units at any time. artillery is also much more important and adds another dimension to your tactics. in spearmanii games you just blob your units at each other and hammer and anvil with your cavalry if you have any. repositioning your units is usually a detriment and will just make you take more damage and deal less compared to leaving them in the blob.
>>483659843I don't mind it
>>483654349>based retards are always fun charactersso true
oh and also because your formations are wide you end up having to use more of the map, and because your units are mostly direct fire you have to pay a lot more attention to terrain. a simple ridge or shallow hill might as well be a decoration in spearmanii games, but in gunmanii games they are critical features.
They actually updated the LL select screens for a lot of LLs thats cool

Therefore I’m stuck playing total war, the only game where massive frame drops don’t make the game entirely unplayable, with a computer that has no reason to be performing so poorly.At this point I’m considering it might be a virus or something like that, either way I’m stuck with you fags while the rest of the world plays Elden ring

Skaven content when?
>>483665636Realistically all of your units can have guns and do well.4 Bombers <-> 4 crab guns is your not-actually-chaff frontage, pistols in a pinch or if you expect to chase routers at all2-4 shotguns as either flank guards or a checkered second line4 handguns backing that up are the backboneSo that's ~10-12 deckhands/crab equivalentsminimum 2+ cannon, about one mortar unless making a stack for specific reasons~2 deck guns, the RoR work differently so always use them if you want competencyone or more necrofex for pseudo skirmish outranging and elevated line of sight, decent in melee, you can use more if you wantWhich is ~5 backlineThe latter half can all fit in a Gunwight aurayou also want a deeps and/or vampires caster, at least one Infamous lord has Death so he needs a friend, but having both in a stack is fine as they have different summon applicationsExtra spaces are any combination ofdogs (routers, backlines) <-> mournguls for similar disruptionbloated corpses as demand dictatesa terrorgheist is a very good investment once you have access to them, despite appearancesDeck Dropper Bombers are free airborne damage against some things but you need to manually align them, not order firea Depth Guard or two are good at cleaning up characters standing in hard to hit places like sieges, can also handle cavalry and escort lords early, just watch your shotgunsMourngul heroes fight to the death generally but are sort of in the wrong factionSyreens can be interesting when seeded within Crab blocks or alongside Depth Guard for melee arrangements, I wouldn't take more than 2-3.If they were Aspiring Champions sized I'd be far more favorable as crab alternatives.The giant crab is okay, better than before, but takes too much friendly fire damage.Gunless hands/polearms and Animated Hulks are the losers of the roster, but fine to throw at things in emergencies.

Holy fuck, how is no one talking about this insane tease from the What's Next video?
>>483665637You aren't missing anythingEveryone is getting fraudchecked by the DLC right now and crying about how "hard" it isThe only reason it's "hard" is most people's builds suck ass and most players refuse to collect the skibidi fragments which are your main source of progression in the DLCThey ignore everything which makes the game easier because buffing, summoning etc. means they "didn't beat the game", then they run into a boss room, immediately die, and cry about it on /v/And of course FROM is listening to these mouthbreathing retards and have already made the game easier in a patch
>>483667581>keep yiffing skavenI will, yes-yes!
Oh, and fell bats are just bats, flying dogs with worse animationsthe dropper handguns are also free damage on some cases and semi-skirmish capable but they and pistols are barely ever useful unfortunately. A unit that they'd aspire to be is Plague Drone Deaths Heads, who are surprisingly good at shaving large targets when compared to the dedicated plinking units in CoastVampire Bats carrying Depth Guard would be a funny unit, even moreso if you could use a summon effect to have just the bats and just the guard as two units apart.
>>483668452>>483667279blah blah just spam gunners and mortars
I'LL HAVE THIS WORLD
>>483668603Mortars underperform in non-siege battles and even then on VH the AI covers from them decentlycannons are the better all-rounder since their LoS restriction barely ever mattersthey'd be even better with grapeshot, whereas mortars have no real prospect of advancement unless you staple them to the backs of some crabs (which is still better as cannons)
>>483669015Who even is this?
>>483669067mortars do not underperform because youll be bunching their units up around your lords and heroes and they do not suffer los issues like cannons do
>>483669102why are you replying to a bot anon

>>483669219I won't be bunching anything up around characters intentionally because that leads to very bad gameplay habits and is boringI'd rather clear city streets with shotgunners and do other fun things
>>483669413ok good for you but everyone else will not be doing that so no need to suggest it like it's a good strategy for other players
A reminder that Tzeentch won the DLCs
LL for this feel?
>>483669481it's often more efficient as well, the image you posted has an entire stack of handguns doing nothing which is wasted upkeep better spent elsewhere, and the battle would be decided more quickly with involvement for time efficiency tooif they made even the smallest contribution in combined arms instead of spectating the fireworks it would be better than a nothing-dead-weightthere are also encounters which will not work with what you describe

I know im late to the party on this but i didn't know they added more updated character intros with this patch.Also, is it a mod being werid or do event popups at the start of a turn no longer show effects? Like the brutal busniess world event not showing on the popup that it makes weapon strength higher.

>>483671143Anon, don'tI was waiting for Karanak to release to play a Vlad campaign without being interrupted by anything, and look where that landed me.
>>483611106Unironically, why did Legend do it? Did someone in CA decide to troll the shit out of him? Or did he really think that blatantly false leaks would drum up attention and engagement on his channel? Because I genuinely did not think he was dumb enough to try the latter, surely he was getting punked by this "leaker".
>>483671290There's definitely someone feeding false leaks to ecelebs, Volound and a bunch of other TW youtubers got punked as well
>>483671010Ah so it is a mod? Thats good then ill just find which it is.
>>483671593we call them cheats here sir
>>483671664>he still doesn't get it
>>483671664No we don't.
>>483671290He literally explained it in plain english. Across multiple youtube videos and livestreams.If you can't understand it now you never will.
>>483669281they messed with unit mass and now multiple smaller entities can easily trap bigger ones, so you get 2 knights stuck in some t1 infantry and they are stuck in combat, running, on fire, poisoned etc even if 98% of the unit is standing behind the front lines idle
>>483672693He just told me that he doesn't know about that and thanked me
>>483672693What was his reason? Im not watching all that.>>483671664It was unique faction UI. Which isnt a cheat, its more flavor!
>>483671290As an Australian he has an innate fear of the Chinese, it is similar to how Goblins have an innate fear of Elves in Warhammer.
total war is healing. no wonder legend is sperging out about it. he has been exposed as a fool.

>>483674784my favourite was a 'triangle' of 3 river crossings in wh1 somewhere near border of empire/VC where the enemy would force march in a circle around it and you could never ever catch them because you lost all your movement crossing the river but they could force march across two
HAHAHAHAHAAHAHA they didn't even mention shitty vampires!!! REST IN PISS YOU FUCKING ROTTEN BLOOD DRINKERS AHAHAHAHAHAA no updates for you!!!!
>>483675713In game 1 you could even retreat in force march right?
>>483675817They did though
>>483675817They literally said they're getting a DLC.
>>483675667I wouldn't mind that but GW might demand CA follow Citadel paintjobs like they did with Alith Anar (who has white hair in art) which are pale in Neferata's case.
>>483676000>ca said
>>483675817>smartest savage Orc
>>483675817this is what you're stooping to for attention?the man looked directly at the camera and said "Vampire Counts Update"
>>483619481>and they didn't even push the "forced diversity" button that muchBut they did. They go out of their way at every moment to squeeze in as many women as they can, as Lords, Heroes and Units.Isabella was a complete waste of a LL, she shouldn't be a LL to begin with, stole a free LL slot from the Empire and was added only because CA wanted to include female LL no matter the cost.Cylostra was invented explicitly so they can "represent people of all genders and shapes" which is exactly what they said. She and Aranessa shouldn't be added at all with Vampire CoastRepanse they brought from death for no reason, even if Robin Hood LL would be a better fit for Peasant focused LL and actually offered different playstyle. Or Mallobaude as an anti-Bretonnian Bretonnian LL.Ulrika is a literally who who shouldn't be in game either, especially before other more important characters like Schwarzhelm and HelborgKislev and Cathay are new additions designed with inclusivity quotas in mindSister's of Twilight, Elspeth and Valkia are new, cringeworthy, protoAOS additions no different from Kislev and Cathay
>>483675817Manlet is a honorary greenskin. He's bald like them.
>>483676883Agree with all of this except Isabella should 100% be in the game - as a hero unit tied to Vlad.
>>483676883>stole a free LL slot from the Empirelmao you've been coping about this for a decade haven't you>more important characters like Schwarzhelm and HelborgAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA
>>483677030>>483676883Literal faggots.
>>483675667Doubtful, all vampire character are very pale for now.
>>483677204you're no better, you make reasonable people look unreasonable by association
>>483677204dumb coomer
Isabella is a waste of stop it should belong to Manfred the Acolyte a actually good tabletop character.
I will do it /twg/!I will play Malus Darkblade just to see if the nerf was really that bad and form an opinon by myself.
>>483676883Every woman you listed there (besides Cathay and Kislev, which definitely was diversity stuff) is magically empowered. Is this the absolute state this general has reached?
>>483677260I hope Medieval 3 will have a mythic mode with vampires
>>483677452Dont. Black Arks are buggy as shit.Malus is consirebly weaker you cant have him fight daemon lords and heroes and expect him to not get any damage. Tzarkan still gets him to full hp so he is still OP.
>>483677453>besides Cathay and KislevMiao>Magical dragonShugengan>Magical part-dragonAlchemist>MagicalKatarin>MagicalIce Witches>MagicalIce Guard>MagicalIt's basically just CWANE GUNNERS and IRON HAIL GUNNERS who are not
>>483677453Except the Kislev units are also magically empowered and have been ruled by women since before that poster was bornthe exception is the voicelines in the dervish units but that was just a really poor design decision and people would be posting about steppe women for no reason either way
>>483675657the queen's english is the correct way to spell. the coastal american englishes are the correct ways to speak.
>>483677781Women are mixed into the Jade Warriors and Celestial Dragon Guard, that's really what I was referring to.
>>483677781cathayan melee infantry is mixed sex, that's why they're constantly screaming
>>483677807>the queen's english is the correct way to spellGenuinely incorrect, the spellings without u that everyone makes fun of in American English is actually just going back to the correct Latin spelling. Color, labor, rumor, etc never had us in Latin.
Hope Shadows and Chorfs go on sale today, so I can finally give Cath and Kis a go
>>483677453>>483677781This is not an excuse and doesn't make them good>>483677079Yeah, they are more important to the setting and actually were on tabletop
>>483677452No point using the daemon mechanic anymore. Before that you could use full possession to go against waaagh stacks but now it's pointless. Just spam the meter with slaves to get super growth. That's all there is to it now. Malus doesn't boost any units nor does his faction effects so there isn't even a thematic army you can build around him. The change is so shit it's unreal.
>>483678268>needing unit buffs to build thematic armies
>>483677983..... chat, is this real?
>>483675976>>483676000>>483676741pills now
>>483678357Good luck winning anything with cold one knights. You can try just don't cry when they all die on a single charge because they are slower than slaaneshi infantry.
>>483678448Malus is meant to suck. You got the DLC for Medusas, Poison Wind Motors, and Snikch.
>>483678405
>>483678402Check it for yourself on wiktionary, I used to laugh at the spellings too until I saw that. Apparently the history is that some guy in the late 1800s really want to defrenchify the English language and create a more consistent pronunciation and spelling system rather than the current nightmare of half of English's words having silent syllables, but really only succeeded in getting the spellings changed because people saw it as a patriotic thing to distinguish American English from British English.
>>483678553>Malus is meant to suck.Well now he does after filtering millions of chaosissies. Imagine having the strongest roster of units and heroes in the game and still jobbing to Malus KWAB.
Why do Delfplayers pretend that Sharts don't absolutely shit on the AI?
>>483678750Daniel has sucked since the game's release and you faggots are having an absolute meltdown that your insanely broken lord is just good now lmao. I don't even care to play Daniel until his customization system doesn't suck but god you retards are projecting.
>>483678836What are you even talking about? The nerf was because of chaos players not being able to win against Malus not darkshards. It has nothing to do with dark elf players.
>>483678970Good. Chaos players no longer have to deal with Malus cheats while Delf players can continue to spam sharts
>>483679036Malus was never a problem.You beat his tier 1 army and he shatters and you never see him again because his faction dies
Coolest of the 3 new DLC LLs? What can the Nurgle one even do?
>>483679142>He's no longer a problem once you beat himWow
>>483678969Because the change that was supposed to help Daniel players is making half of Maluses mechanics worthless. He starts next to a lord with magic attacks what's the point of the physical resistance and getting public order debfus and corruption in your own territory? I understand that people struggle but it's retarded to nuke a entire LL mechanic because of it. If it's such a great change would you halve your income get attrition and nuke your public order in exchange for 40 phys resistance on a single lord? No sane person would.
>>483679252the daemon prince doesn't even start next to him anymoreand epidemius has a bunch of things that make him not matter
>>483679252Hellebron gets 40% resistance and a ton of buffs for thematic units without downsides so no point in playing Malus. They even start pretty close to each other too. I guess that's what chaos retards wanted.
>>483679175Be an ogre lord on a mount, get a hp regen comparable to tyrion at low hp but you steal said hp from a nearby enemy character Have access to Chorf/Beastmen/WoC/Norscan units and legendary heroes through his unique warlord mechanicMy preference is Nurgle>Empire>Dorf this pack, but opinions vary
>>483679372I was talking about Epidemious.
>>483679475>Chorf/Beastmen/WoC/Norscan units and legendary heroes through his unique warlord mechanicOh okay I am now interested
Tz'arkan giving physical resistance makes more sense.But Malus should have got another buff at full possesion to compansate for this change.And he needs to buff cold one knights with his unique line.But ultimately his campaign is still strong and fun because he starts with a Medusa that still annihilates any daemon she fires at.
>>483679252I dunno what they could have done instead of ward save - > resistance but now it's much more of a push and pull. Yeah Malus now gets pierced by magic attacks but daemons have always been incredibly shit at dealing with dark sharts. I'd fully support a buff to his campaign mechanics, especially alongside a full delf rework sure, but I don't think going back to the one man army doomstack nonsense is good. I hope nonsense like that continues to get nerfed, they missed a couple in the last patch.>>483679372Wut? Daniel's still next to Malus.
I wish CA could just fuck off to be honest. I'm tired of them breaking all mods with their nothingburger updates and dlcs. It's not like they actually implement new gameplay mechanics, which are beyond modders reach. Like naval battles, map generation, dismounting and other stuff like this.I also wish that modding community stopped using fucking steam workshop and moved onto nexus, moddb or whatever else that doesn't have automatic updates and lets you to actually own downloaded mods. Even skyrim fucking community was smart enough to do so.
>>483679663Epidemius is wedged between them nowNot that it really matters when the fat cunt will find a reason to attack Daniel anyway, and now Malakai's right next door to the lot of em, so he'll still suffer
>>483679613>Medusa that still annihilatesAnon... as someone that just played Malus... the Medus is shit again. She can't clear out blobs at all anymore they nerfed her projectile strength and radius to hell.
Let's go!! H/H>>483677770>Dont. Black Arks are buggy as shit.Aren't they "bugged" since year now ?

>>483679885>nerfed her projectile strength and radius toThat is more atrocious than anything else. I don't want to use shards.
>>483679890>Is keeping Hag Graef viable ?No. Alith is too strong to fight him with just a generic dreadlord. And you will need the money because every piece of territory you will gain will have chaos AIDS that cuts your income for a dozen of turns.
>>483679885No i also tested her after the patch. She lost projectiles but the damage seemed same to me. She still easily makes a blue horror unit go half hp with their barrier with one shot.
>>483678641Wow, that kind of sounds like the American equivalent of turning words like defence into defense to simplify the spellingwait>from Old French defense, from Latin defensusTHE ETERNAL ANGLO STRIKES AGAINI need to do some research
>>483679784Yeah can't wait for a new hotfix.
>>483678220Rey being a woman isn't the reason nu-wars sucked.It sucked because of>nostalgiabaiting demanded the first movie be a rehash of ANH, meaning new republic is sidelined, Luke's efforts to train a new jedi order are dumpstered, there's an imperial remnant that has a free rein in the galaxy and somehow Leia has a ragtag rebel cell as the only force fighting it. Chewbacca the only alien character of note as in ANH to play it extra safe.>movie 2 then tries to subvert nostalgic expectations by saying those bloodlines didn't matter much, kills the built up bad guy, have Luke reintroduced as a grumpy mentor who sacrifices himself and is centered around a pointless chase scene, and a pointless casino scene which ended up mattering nothing at all, again to subvert expectations, also suddenly hyperspace ramming for the first time on screen without thinking about the in-universe ramifications and the reaction of the fanbase who does nothing but think about these things for decades. And at the end still pivots to nostalgiafaggotry with a rehash of AT-AT battle, now on a salt flat.>movie 3: panic nostalgia button, somehow Palpatine returned
>>483680034She shots 30% slower now too. She's crippled.
>>483680030Whoah so i will have to abandon the chaos wasteland and repatriate Malus to Naggaroth
>>483679890>upkeep reduction for cold one unitsI don;t know who designed his campaing but he should be shoot. I can't even come up with a more useless lord effect. It's not even faction wide. Oh but the daemon that resides in Malus? He can spread global slaanesh corruption no matter where on the planet he is. Not even slaaneshi factions are that good at spreading their own corruption as Tz'arkan.
>>483680279>somehow Palpatine returned

>>483683351Unironically hobgoblin archers when supported by Astragoth and Gorduz since you can stack a billion stat buffs on them and then give your enemies 60% fire weakness, letting the hobgobbos deal tens of thousands of damage per volley.>>483683625That's retarded, but even playing by your stupid rules if t2 units are allowed then dwarf or chorf shotguns beat the fuck out of darksharts, and Akshina are basically darksharts with stalk and by our blood.
There is no logical reason for Darkshards (shields) couldn't carry swords as sidearms and have identical melee stats to Bleakswords.
>>483675234You are slop for savescumming chances.
>>483683204lol, LMAOWe live in a age of guns that completely disrupt enemy formations pinning down entire units in place and you unironically think a crossbow is OP? AHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>483683865Palworld's growing power has been noticed by even the most distant of kings and bestial lords (/twg/ falls into the latter category).
>>483683625Beastmen have the best ranged units because you win turn 1.
>>483683907Balance is a logical reason
>>483684030>muh gunshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4hemocmQdIthe state of empireniggers
>>483683907Darkshards ARE Bleakswords with a additional crossbow on the TT. All core dark elf units have the same stats and only differentiate themselves with a additional weapon be it a spear or crossbow. Same applies to dark riders who in the game for some reason have halved stats when using crossbows.
>>483683907Yeah but Bleakswords actual are trained as swordmen.
>>483684096>Balance>In a single player map painting gameNo thanks
>>483683709The answer is Hilda, no contest
>>483684249true there should just be a 'win campaign' button on the side of the screen because its just a sandbox after all

>>483684193Darkshards are actually bleakswords trained with crossbow usage.
>>483684378I've seen it posted in the general before. Also that's not AI slop, I know what AI slop looks like.
>>483683906shotguns are shit in sieges and are too short ranged
>>483684249What‘s the point of a game if you get fake fun from it?
>>483616926The Necrofex colossus RoR gets a flamethrower instead of the Quad-Cannon and has unique animations in meleeThe Empire War Wagon RoR has volley guns instead of the shitty MortarsThe Chorf Immortals are pretty unique, they don't really match any Chorf infantryMay not count but Norsca gets the "RoR" that is 4 Mammoths in a unit
>>483682435Yes DEs are shit in wh3. But not because they are weak on campaign or in battle.>Slave mechanic doesnt make any sense and braindead.>Heroes are stuck playing wh2 in wh3. Masters and Khainite assassins still trying to manage wh2 salve system with their skills.>Buildings are the worst in game. Fucking sewer building that no one builds grants more PO than the dedicated PO building.>Naggaroth area fucking sucks, boring as hell.>Black Arks are still suffering from the same bug SINCE THE LAUNCH OF IE.And there is even more shit like this. They fucking SUCK.
>>483684483Shotguns are amazing in sieges what are you talking about? You don't use them against walls, you use them to clear streets. Put them in a chokepoint and watch them get 200+ kills
>>483684456the ERPtranny spams this general with ai slop all the time>>483684512>>483616926the RoR hellcannon is 4 cannons not 1, the nurgle soul grinder depletes ammunition, queen bess and casket of souls are unique
What are some challenging campaigns? I started a Skarsnik one but it's a breeze now, unlike in wh2.
>>483684585so fuck around moving all through the city when i can just park my darkshards in the corner out of siege towers and let them kill everything while I watch youtube videos?fighting inside cities right now is the most frustrating and buggy situation in the game, darkshards let you avoid it, your autistic shotgun obsession (i know now youre the retard who thinks VC shotguns are good too) makes you focus on it
>>483684619>Khalida>Louen>Daniel (because his faction sucks ass, otherwise pretty powerfull)>Luthor Harkon (Saurus and Alberic can fuck up his early game if not carefull)
>>483684619Nothing. Just Khalida maybe, but I haven‘t played her, just repeating what others have said.
>>483684765>louenwuthes pretty straightforward outside of belakor being a prick
>belakor's opening battle is against a lord, 2 blue horrors and a chaos furyDoes it get any easier than that?
>>483684765Only Khalida keeps the challenge for longer. The rest becomes easy 20 turns in at most. Daniel is probably second hardest until you get bloodletting + plagues, then ez.
>>483684585I don‘t see how they can be called amazing when indirect fire helps so much more in cramped shitty pathfinding maps. Low model count squads, sure, but these are Irondrakes and such.
>>483684920>>483685201Louen campaign can turn into hell very easiliy. Belakor always declares war but then N'kari and Grom's Waagh can join the fun. That happened in my last Louen campaign. Shit was not fun.
>>483684619tzeench is challenging if you try to save sarthorael otherwise you can just avoid all the difficulty by playing slow
>>483685406weird I've never have n'kari attackgrom is really rng dependent yeah, he either does nothing or becomes rank 1
>>483684740I have no idea what you're talking about with the VC shotgun thing since I didn't bring those up at all.Not your boogeyman.>>483685214Playing on ultra I have absolutely no problems using shotguns in sieges. You just need to make them box shaped and use them one or two at a time, and they shred the enemy.But even if they were godawful trash in sieges it doesn't matter at all since most battles aren't sieges and siege ai is so retarded that it's easy as hell anyway, you can literally take tier 5 cities on like turn 6 just by abusing the ai.The ai jobs to arty, cavalry, flying units, summons, mortis engines, stalk backcaps and bombardment spells in sieges, sure they job to shotguns and crossbows too but literally who cares sieges are a fucking joke.What matters is field battles and in field battles darkshards are nowhere near the strongest unit in the game. They're decent ap crossbows and that's it.
Did you guys notice that if a hero gains a mount while attached to an army, they take away some portion of the movement of the army.But if you get them out of the army they both army and hero gets their lost moevement back.Game is full of little bug like this its fucking frustrating.

Troy's Mythic mode was the biggest Total War letdown I've experienced in like a decade.Not because of what the actual DLC itself delivered, but because they didn't follow up on it at all.Future and past DLC didn't get any new mythic units, even when it would have made sense for them to do so.For example, the Mares of Diomedes are still just mundane horses in Mythic mode and not the flesh-eating monsters they should have been. Which is really unfortunate, because CA could have easily ported the Chaos Warhorse skeletons and animations, slapped them on a chariot and called it a day.Although personally I would have liked it if the horses made their own attacks separate from the chariot, like what some Warhammer monster chariots do.But more importantly, factions like Memnon didn't get to bring cool regional monsters into Troy, and Mythic never got followed up on in Pharaoh.Imagine how many diverse mythological creatures could have been brought into Pharaoh if Myth mode was a thing in it?
>>483689594yeah i dont care
>>483689702
>>483615993Either Dechala or Styrkaar will be a LL. Slaanesh will have her monogod mortal LL like all the others monogodsThis means Masque will be 100% a LL tho, as she's the Slaanesh monogod minor demon herald, like the Changeling, Epidemius, and Skulltaker
>>483689394>cheatsthe only cheats I have is the respec mod and the recruit defeated LLs one>5 melee infantry instead of more engineer heroes and hellstormI can't recruit more hellstorms yet and the melee infantry are the ones you start with.

>>483616309All Slaanesh is missing aside Slanngors are serpents and Anointed elves. It's 99% gonna be Dechala, with Masque as the FLC

Monkey king 2025
>what we learned from ToD was that people like it when the DLC units thematically tie into the DLC lord>Anyways here's Golgfag, a big mountain monster and big vultures for the ogresBit funny. Wonder will we get more maneaters, or at least more visual variants for them.
how do humans even exist when they are getting fucked from all sides by armies of mutant cows, infinite giant green men, walking trees, invincible vampires raising armies of undead, armies of demons and their own people getting corrupted by the demonsits unrealistic
Fucking hell i can't wait for the Ogre dlc, Skrag just isn't very interesting to me and while Greasus is a gigachad in lore he's a disabled tard IG who can only wreck large entities... if you send him to fight some small lords he just slowly pushes them doing nothing while getting hit in his fat fucking face for free.
>>483690484KekBut the Ogre Kingdoms roster has such obvious gaps that it wouldn't really make sense not to fill them out. Yhetees is another obvious inclusion. But more Maneater variants would be nice.
>>483689594I think Troy should have been a Mythology game from the get gowe know next to nothing about the real Trojan War and from what we do know the Hittites were heavily involved they should have just embraced Homer and given us demigods and mermaids from the getgothat said I don't want mythicshit in Pharaoh, crocodiles with lasers have no place in a historical setting like the Bronze Age collapse
>>483690484All the maneaters are in, so there really isn’t thematic shit missing for him, and the remaining missing ogre shit is grab-bag or borderline OC like the vultures. The generic lord could be a maneater paymaster with a pistol or something though.
>>483690640>its unrealisticyeah so are the mutant cows, infinite giant green men, walking trees, invincible vampires raising armies of undead and armies of demons you absolute fucking retard
>>483690640The game is called warhammer, so all of the lore focuses on the wars and shit.>no shitI mean that you only ever see about the warring, so it seems like its constant when actual incursions aren’t happening every day.
>>483690484>>483690775I'm wondering if they're going to be making racial variant maneaters for Golgfag to recruit from contracts or something. Add dual weapon maneaters, and then make a maneater for each race with the type of maneater being influenced by the race. So Dwarf maneaters would probably be Ironfists with spell resistance and charge defense, Kislev maneaters would be Pistols with better melee stats and By Our Blood, Slaanesh maneaters would be Dual Weapon maneaters with zero armor faster movement and mark of slaanesh, etc.

Now that legend's leaks were proven true thanks to the DLC reveal being completely devoid of content, it pretty much confirms that his leak that 40k is coming late 2025 is also real.

>>483695226I enjoy all types of TW. I enjoy Rome 1/2, Medieval 2, Atilla, ToB, Troy, Pharaoh, Warhammer 1/2/3. People that screech at one side of the fanbase aren't real fans of TW.

>>483695226>Histcucks, how the hell will you cope with another 5 years of 40k after warhammer fantasy?Just abandon the series and move on with my life to be honest. I started to post here around the time of the Rome 2 release. I guess CA trying to release 40k on their current engine will kind of bring of bring things full circle in a way.The Total War series has no future other than constant fanbase replacement attempts to snare in a new audience every 5 years that wont know any better, and doesn't have a reference point to notice things e.g. the AI hasn't got any better in 15 years
>>483695226>Histcucks, how the hell will you cope with another 5 years of 40k after warhammer fantasy?No guarantee that it'll be good or memorable. Nobody gives a crap about most other Warhammer games that are shit and boring
So I've been on a campaign completion spree and I've noticed that the rarest one is by far the dark elves, it's also the one that took the longest for me (140 turns when it's usually over by 80 or 90) and that's because of the retarded win conditions of eliminating EVERY high elf on the map.Yes, that means you also have to go chase Teclis and Imrik, fucking dumb.
>>483700337>Yes, that means you also have to go chase Teclis and Imrik, fucking dumb.Meanwhile Alarielle just has to unite Ulthuan lol
>>483700337the new slave system probably also turns off a lot of the people who are used to cheesing the old system from 2 for an easy win
>>483700337I think my fastest campaign ever was Bel'akor where I triggered long campaign victory out of nowhere on turn 30 or something. Didn't even go for it. Then realized his only conditions were for a few Chaos factions to be eliminated and him owning some 10 dark fortresses. Really bonkers how easy he is.
>>483700469I never abused the old system, but while it took me 140 turns to complete this campaign I can say that it was by far the most busted of all the faciton I played in terms of economy, I had absurd amounts of income with no exploits so I'm not sure why people are complaning.
>>483701146>>483701146>>483701146

New thread that didn't fuck up the OP:>>483701368>>483701368>>483701368
>>483690484The most thematic thing for the missing Ogre units would be like a Legendary Hunter Lord or something, since the Thundertusk, Vultures, and yhetees are all tied together as units from the high peaks of the Mountains of Mourn. But that character unfortunately doesn't exist, so...
>>483701047I don't think anyone's complaining besides the fact that you don't get any control over what buildings get to consume slaves beyond just not having slaves in a province whatsoever but there's definitely people who played to abuse the old slave economy and aren't otherwise interested in darkshardmanii
>>483701602What was even so good about the old system? The new one is absurdly strong, don't remember anything particular about the old
