Be a good person
which Total War: Pharaoh Dynasties faction are you playing first?For me? I'm thinking maybe either Alashiya or a minor Egyptian faction for Atenism..
>>487537913Either your friend should be a tree or 185cm+ French gigachad with a large mustache.>>487538074Probably Assyria followed by Troy or one of the Greeks.

>>487538456No Amazons, though I believe that faction's partially based on early scythians and such, which is also where they got the amazons aesthetic from in troy.

AYO what time this bitch launching??
>>4875393423PM Bongland
is it true that once you enter into a military alliance with an AI faction they calculate your armies into their own, thereby ceasing army production?
>>487539453I don't think they ever ceased army production, but they do start accounting for your strength as well, when considering going to war and such.I haven't had as much of a problem with it in 3 compared to 2, though, so they might have toned that down at some point.

>>487539453>>487539575Easily fixed if your allies could give you missions and objectives to be accomplished within X turns. If you could also do the same and the they were rated based on individual faction strength for solo ones or dual effort ones - Siege or Attack X in 5 turns and we will consider becoming allies, the effort officiates an allegiance during and then after or makes a defensive one a full alliance.Of course you could have a button in the menu to make for lore friendly allies only for that campaign. This could be built on for properly divergent and narrative, player driven campaigns. Maybe make major promises like securing the Empire or taking back Karaz a Karak after it has fallen and the entire province and giving it back to the dwarves when or if they lose it.You could have random mini campaigns in order to confed certain lords like Morathi working with Malekith to undermine and break Hellebron where she will be cornered and beaten enough to beg for mercy and so on. You could have dwarf reclamation missions within the race itself to revive other factions and have the option to absorb the newly risen faction or let it be re-established just like it exists now with Elector Counts. All of this could be expanded on a thousand fold.None of this requires cutting edge scripting or anything just appropriation of the existing dilemma scripts and tapping into and refining diplomacy.
what do you do with old units? do you just discard them or transfer them to a new lord?
>>487539342https://x.com/totalwar/status/1813944312692134280
>>487541495Depends on the units. If it's something like tier 1 spearmanii I just disband them if there's no lord nearby. If it's something more useful then I transfer them to a different army. Especially if it's ranged, cavalry or siege units.

>>487541536>open official xitter>they're laughing at people who didn't pick Babylon well I'm real sorry I wanted to play GREEKS again
I have a question to lorefags or more specifically grogs that played the tabletop. I get that the idea was for players to use this place as a home for their own OC armies. Now did anyone actually do this or did most players paint armies based on Reikland, Averland, Wissenland and so forth?Because if not the entire place seems like a waste of potential. GW just left an area entirely barren which could've easily housed fantasy versions of ancient Greeks, the Byzantines, Hungary or just generic Balkanoids.

>>487542648He was brutally assassinated by the coward known as TCLA.Or so I'm told. So don't quote me on that.
>>487542579No one at my LGS ever played anything border princes related, but it was a fairly small shop and we didn't even have a player for each individual 'major' armybook faction, so that's hardly saying much.In my personal opinion having this kind of semi-blank possibility space is good for any fantasy setting, it gives the players the opportunity to create their own shit (This is just as, possibly more, relevant for people who played the Tabletop RPG than for people who played the wargame) and it lets you easily slot in new shit with the ability to say it was just there the whole time.And it's not like the Border Princes is actually totally blank, there's a decent amount of principalities that have been described in some meaningful level of detain in some source or another and many, many more if you go by locations that have just like, a name a short, simple description.Personally I also think that having the Border Princes be a wild frontier is more interesting than adding Generic NotGreeks in the same vein as the Generic NotItalians of Tilea. And if GW actually wanted Fantasy Greeks/Byzantines it's not like they couldn't have added them anyway while still keeping the Border Princes. Back when they were actually still adding major factions the entire setting, map included was very much in flux and in the later editions when everything was 'locked in' they wouldn't have added new major factions anyway.

Lets assume that wood elves (and elves in general) were real. What would be the chances of me having sex with one of them?

Pharaoh is doing well in the kiketube algorithms so expect the outbackjew to pander to it (after saying he wouldn't cover it again).
>>487548438>Pharaoh missilesling, bow or javelin?
>>487548556Nah. Legend has a very stable and autistic audience that wants only one thing. To watch Legend cheese in Wh3. Other youtubers have to spice up their content from time to time. Legend's community meanwhile has quite clearly told him they don't want to watch Pharaoh.
>>487548556>Outback jew He's too bad at pilpulMore like "shabos goy of total war"And yes, I was thinking that he'd do a 180 on his anti Pharaoh stance as well. He's probably holding out for a bribe, but he's not jewish enough to pull it off.

I think offering myself up as a slave would be my best bet as I think it could possibly confuse them and make them curious.>Wood ElvesI agree it would be incredibly hard but I think it would be possible if I found the right kind. Maybe one that has a thing for the Bretonnian men. I think maybe it would be more of a pity thing than them actually wanting sex with a 'beast' aka a man. Aka me.>>487549180>nasty rapeThis would be true for the dark elves for sure. But I think I could do it with the other elves consensually.

>>487549493Armor and shields don't look accurate to me, too many weird metal pieces just sticking out of clothing and so on. But desu, I don't know Bronze Age that well. I even read that they actually might have used leather armor (thing people dismiss for later eras), since bronze is probably not easy to work with for armor. I think they found leather armor among King Tut's burial goods.

>>487549556I think the 40k elves are much more racist compared to the fantasy elves so you would have a better chance.

>>487549556With that much confidence in your skills you might actually impress a dark elf enough not to kill you. Still ain't getting that helfussy. Too stuck up and racist.
what was China doing in 1300 BC?
>>487547962So the pike and shot formation was actually useless and artillery was the deciding factor?
>>487550831>Absolutely as long as you're married to a Jewess>Half of Israel these days are former Soviets with zero Jewish ancestry.are the non jewish former soviets there because they married a Jewess or because they just claimed they are jewish but have nothing to do with it
>>487538212Probably Troy. There first minor faction I play might be Carchemish because that's one city/kingdom I find interesting. It was a part of the Hittite empire which lasted for like 500 more years after Hattusa itself was abandoned. The elamite faction could also be fun and from there, either an Egyptian or Greek faction.
>>487550721you're talking about stuff that's 3200 years old, if it weren't for graves sealed for all those thousands of years we wouldn't have that many artifacts surviving for Mycenaeans there's also the unfortunate fact that unlike Egyptians and Mesopotamians the Greeks didn't like writing that much while in Egypt and the Fertile Crescent we find tons of random documents, the Mycenaean texts we do have are mostly shipping manifests and warehouse inventories

>>487560861Eldar were definitively not good. Dark Eldar is what the Eldar were before the fall. Craftworld Eldar were a minority sect that renounced their culture when they discovered that slaanesh will be born.
>>487561598Nta but iirc the eldar were more or less normal originally (similar to high elves in fantasy) but progressed towards being more like dark eldar out of sheer boredom. They conquered the stars and no one had to work so they became more degenerate over time until their fall.
>>487561598Technically it wasn't really related to slaanesh, they didn't suspect that cataclysm would happen. They just thought their society had degenerated and as a consequence their empire will fall and millions must die.

Pirates are cringe. Vampires are cringe.
>t. cringe ordoid.
Anyone ever done an all-melee (or nearly all-melee) elf unit army in their Wood Elf campaign?(Not including Drycha armies)Some Wood Elf melee units seem pretty cool, but every time I play as the Wood Elves I tend to make range-focused armies, just too fun shooting everything to shit before it reaches your lines.I played a Crone Hellebron campaign a few months back and tried an all-melee army with her using sisters of slaughter, witchelves, and Har Ganeth executioners and no missile units and it was surprisingly fun.
>>487558350That was a fanfic. A hot one, but fanfic nonetheless.
>>487562347Basically. The dino riding exodites, unlike their craftworld brethren, are true luddites and somewhat amish inspired. Craftworlders in comparison are closer to puritans.
you will cringe much more with my lord's bullet in your brain

>>487563132Yes. I call this my sexo army because it's full of hot elf SLUTS. It's kind of shit in terms of strength but if you can get them into melee they can do a lot of damage. could make it better with cavalry and some stronger frontline like treekin but I wanted it all to be skanks.

waiting for unpackcute cheevo tho
I was going to complain about having to see all these pharaoh posts now that it's released but you know what? I won't. You guys have to deal with us posting warhammer all day so I'll give you a pass.
>>487565527lmao what's this from? I vaguely recall seeing that but can't remember from where. Smome music video right?
>>487566098>LegendSchizo is getting uppityYou lost, stop complaining about Pharaoh.

>>487566140but im both a warhammer and historical fag
>>4875664923,500
>>487566492idunno, maybe 4,000. I'll be joining soon.
I'm in.
>>487566098Are fantasy fans not embarassed to be begging for DLC all the time? Im old enough to remember when DLC was considered distasteful and at the very least, something that should have just been in the game at launch
you could be playing total war instead of being here seething you knowexcept for the legendfag, he doesn't actually own total war just watches on youtube because he's Indian and poor so he'll never know the joy, but you could
>>487566869Your falseflagging is readily apparent to everyone, try harder.
>>487566492Wouldn't be surprised if peak was higher than at release. Maybe 5000 or 6000 max, it will quickly deteriorate obviously. Those who bought Pharaoh at different times will reinstall it all at once to check it out.
>unpacking>3%
>>487567210I just chose to redownload it, it genuinely seems to be faster.
how many turns per year do you choose?
So hyped for Pharoah I built a new pcSomeone tell me if the game is actually good
What's this? You start with almost a entire province? Nice.
>>487567461it's excellentreminds me of Attila
>>487538212I am Tausret chad, but first campaign on Dynasties I will play as Achilles or Hector of Trroy. Will flip a coin
>>487567527No Warhammer 3 lord starts with more than 2 settlements.
Most violent and cruel armies? I want blood and suffering.
>>4875674543 seems like the ideal, fast enough that you'll get to see the new generation but slow enough that you can get to know your king

Is there a blogpost with all the info about dynasties in 1 convenient written format? I'm absolutely not watching a bunch of different videos with people talking about everything except what I want to look at
>>487538456I really hope someone mods in Penthesilea. The fact that they didn't already make her leader of the Cimmerians is a headscratcher.
>>487567728Assyriasee >>487459421
>>487566492would dynasties contribute to the same statistics when its a different application
>>487567859Just what's in the OP.>>487567875Amazons was a step too far, they allowed cavalry but they don't want to make the game completely fictional.
>>487539876>watches youtubersThe fucking state of 4chan
>>487563901WE have been best faction for different army setups since sisters dlc for longass time>orion or/and ariel speed boosted (through banner)cav stack with stag knights sisters of thorn and zoats>malee common glade lord (f) stack with dancers with physical dmg save>treekin/duruthu treeman/driads stack>sisters airborn force>stalk guirella ranged stack>normal male/ranged composition stack.Nowadays most factions got around 4 totaly different way to create capable and fun armies, but way back WE got so much diversity that it wasnt even funny when you play something like bretonia after WE campaign.I think they are still in top when it comes to how many totaly different yet good army compositions they have.
Are... are those... horsemanii? AIEEE THIS ISN'T HISTORICAL!!! SAVE ME VOLOUND!!!
>>487567936Good call, Anon.
>>487567859> what I want to look atwhat do you want to look at?
>>487568042yeah basically that but replace horsemanii with hot white(?) women.
lol
>>487567728Definitely Assyria. They're the invented standing armies and terror as a strategy.>>487567701Remember when tw games used to have entire empire spanning dozens of provinces playable?
I have Dynasties installed and will play shortly but first I have some unfinished business to take care of in Elden Ring with the putrescent knight.

>>487568298i'm trans btw not sure if that matters.
>>487568203>Remember when tw games used to have entire empire spanning dozens of provinces playable?I think Attila was the last one to do that? I remember both of the Romes being pretty big and pretty tough to play. There also was some huge eastern faction that was a huge empire with tons of vassals and complete easy mode
>>487568384
>>487567875Mycenaeans actually existed, the only problem is we don't know their leaders, so using Iliad characters is fine and it allowed them to use some Troy stuff anyways. Amazons, on the other hand are completely fictional.
>>487568575yeah the sassanid empire
Holy shit. The cav just melted a unit with a single charge.
Lethality is the best thing they've done in years holy fuck
>>487568575Buddy, this reply was exactly what I was thinking. Word for word.Get out of my head.

>>487568656Attila mains... our cavalry has returned.
>>487568656>cavalry is good againWe are so fucking BACK
>>4875689323DPD gross
>cavalry in the bronze ageYou people make me SICK
>>487568656chariotbros...we lost...it's so fucking over...
>>487547393Only honest post in thread. Remember when every nation around them was murdering them for being filthy jews paying the enemies of their host nation to come attack them? Those were good times.
>>487568042pretty sure assyrians are known for being one of the first people doing horseback combat
The Assyrian cav is pretty powerful but also fragile as fuck. They are like dark riders in every regard except they can win a fight if they charge into a unit.
>>487569178about 400 years after the bronze age collapse tho
>>487569178But do they have two bros cavalry?
>>487568203Dozens of provinces? Not many TW games do that. Off the top of my head I really can only think of Barbarian Invasion and Attila. Rome, Medieval 2 and Rome 2 all have you start with a few provinces but not that many.
>>487568628>PenthesI was thinking more Penthesilea just leading a faction otherwise composed of men. Maybe with an amazon unit. Similar to how the Scythians in some of the older games would have a female cav unit. Basically make Penthesilea a Bronze-age Tomyris. Not literally leading Amazons but just being a warrior queen.
>>487569387how do they compare to hittite chariots?
>>487545950If Helves = Britain and Delves= Americans then Welves =...
uohhhhhhhhhh
>>487569740This is before the after work numbers, remember this is coming out at 10 AM for burgers and 3 PM for bongs.
>>487569590Didn't test it enough but they are weaker in a prolonged fight but thanks to their speed and responsiveness they can more easily pick targets. Also they are REALLY fragile so you must be careful in picking targets. They will die to any unit that braces for their charge. They are ideal for hunting ranged infantry which is super powerful now.
>>487569634>then Welves =...Brazilians
>Hittites and Babylon had an alliance to keep Assyria from expanding or something Can I get a QRD on this history?
Babylon... SOVL...

>first better as Priam>283 kills with a single unit of archersAh yes the Trojan experience still the same.
>>487572364floaty animations or some shit. lethality makes pharaoh closer to older tws than even shogun 2 or attila but he will still seethe.
>>487572691yeah that's pretty much what I expected. Starting Priam right now.
Lethality? I sure hope Pharaoh battles aren't over in an instant like in WH3.
>>487572078histoid bros, we're so fucking back!
>>487572696>than even shogun 2 or attilaDidn't they both have the 1hp per model system? I know shogun did which was why matchlock with their 2 damage fucked so hard.
>it's another one of those days where chaos dwarfseses think they can break the impenetrable skaven linesOHHHHHHHHHHH BOY....
>>487572147I'd love to know what their goal numbers are to justify further development on Pharaoh dlc or letting Sofia get a new game
I think it's actually impossible for me to lose with this stack. It's so absurdly broken. Like what the fuck. I kill their whole army before they even touch my front lines.
>>487572998Welcome to cathay anon, enjoy your stay.Most of their stuff is pretty strong desu, doesn't hurt that your cannon is better than the empire counterpart too.
>>487572889i know for a fact attila didn't. i swore shogun 2 didn't and HP was just a hidden stat but it might not be.
>>487572998>>487573146Like, 1k missile strength lol. One barrage from one of these things kills a whole unit when thy hit.
>>487572696>>487572889>>487573203I think shogun 2 has hp, but units lack shieds and ai is too dumb to counter ashigaru spear wall so ai melts easily
Were Babylonians really this advanced? This is just a small village.
>>487573780irrigation was a necessity in the Tigris and Euphrates as those rivers were a lot more unpredictable than the Nileso yeah, dudes were good at irrigation technology
>>487573780Babylon at its height was more advanced than we are now.
>Irsu dies in my 2nd battleNot even wounded, just straight up dead after losing a handful of models
>>487574090sovl, that's the old tw experience. nothing funnier than losing your general five seconds after a battle starts in the original rome because of bad luck
>>4875714145K ANY MOMENT NOWWE'RE GOING TO THE MOON PHARAOHBROS I HOPE YOU HELD YOUR COPPERCOIN BAGS
>>487574090The amount of time I have lost my chariot general to friendly javelins in Rome 2...Fuck the Iceni, they have killed more of their own kings than everyone else combined.
>>487573203Wouldn't surprise me if attila had, a hidden, formation healthbar.With Shogun2 I know for a fact that all units had just 1 hp, with the exception of the general which has 2hp.Iirc ashigaru bows did 0.3 damage and samurai 0.4, while matchlock had the aforementioned 2 damage.Although no one ever found out the formula for melee damage calculations.>>487573603Meh, armor still reduces the damage of ranged and yari wall is primarily just economical. They aren't good enough to 1v1 samurai but so cheap you get the numbers advantage for the same money.
i will ask againfor the 10th timeIS THERE A MOD THAT MAKES THE AI STEAMROLL LIKE IT USED TO IN WH2ANSWER ME FAGGOTS
we hit 5k bros

>he's still having a meltylole
>>487575887Rhesus Goldarmour!
Even MEMEMAN made it in.
>>487576159this guy looks like he can do the thugshaker
>>487576159we unironically was kangz, i love that nigga
I want to play as mycenae but 4 regions and 2 starting armies is kinda too much to start with..
>>487574957Heroes are kinda shit and long yari are a special unit which not only have noticeably better stats, the longer spear also means enemy units have trouble getting close enough to so damage.Long yari have 7 attack vs 4 of ordinary yari, 5 defense vs 3, 3 armor vs 2 and 1 more morale too. With those low stats even +1 makes a huge difference long yari aren't at all comparable to normal yari ashigaru.Ordinary ashigaru in yari wall will lose to katana samurai while the latter don't even lose 50% of their men.
>>487576159BBC is back on the menu bois
>>487576159Don't do it white man. There's more to life than goats!
>>487576375lmao wut? warhammer has damaged your brain.
>>487575887>>487576159THIS is the only thing the establishment truly fears
I AM THE PIRATE KING
you are irrelevant now, Pharaoh owns this general lil' bro.
>>487576506nah it's same for every TW game for me, like I'd love to play seleucids if they didn't start with half of the world so I play baktria instead
>influencers all crawling back to pharaohlmao
And so, we have been rewarded.All that I have said has come to pass.
who?
>>487576414NTA but you can do the test in custom battles, yari ashigaru definitively beat katana samurai while in yari wall.
>>487576753Sad innit? The grifters are slaves to their own curse.
>>487576641Nah, but it's nice to see the game get a second chance. >>487576753Leave Cody alone. Dude will defend Thrones of Britannia with his life.
So what's the intended unit size for Pharaoh
>>487576753>>487577050Cody doesent even cover gameplay. He talks about lore and history.
>>487568405get an ssd you animal
Is this what I think it's supposed to be?
>>487576654Tbh that was a reason why I didn't really get into Carthage in Rome2 and I love carthage. It's a reason I like their shift towards decentralization more often. Bloated empires aren't fun to play as unless you are getting torn apart (WRE/ERE in Attila).Checking the assets since I'm a dirty dumb modder, setn (That's rammy2's son right?) has a shit load of stuff armor wise. Disciples of Sekmet, state equipped nubian longbowmen, nakhtu, expeditionary (not clear what it is but looks libu), red land amror, And then this! Mycenaean armor with booba
>>487577436Almost certainly enough assets to get Penny in, hope we see that mod.
>>487577436That's a amazon leftover. They probably toyed with the idea early on. Shame because Pentasilea is MY WIFE
Total War Warhammer 3 not Baba Yaga.: Is she evil?
>>487577436too smoll to by true mycenaean booba
>>487577360The futa temple?
There he is
>>487577635Most likely yeah, the only other female armor was like 1-2.Oh scratch that, in man/armour (rather than female/armour) all the amazonian gear is in. So yeah, assuming voice lines are it wouldn't be hard to do.Monsters are too, actually.
>>487577845you haven't been here for the last two threads with the posts about the girls(male) prostituting themselves at the temple of ishtar, right?
>>487576973Nope, they won't. Yari wall is more of a meme than mos twili acknowledge.Too busy rn but I can make a clip of it in a bit more than 1 hour as proofs.
Pharaoh worth getting now with the dynasties update?
>>487578428I was. I just didn't pay much attention to Babylon related posts.
>>487579009Depends, if you like the period and histoid games. Then sure. It's a great game.
>>487579243I could take or leave the setting but I do like historical games
>>487545026I love Amazonian women so much it is insane Idk how people like short stack girls.
bretty good
>>487579009Yeah. It's still cheaper on key sites for now so I'd recommend getting it there.
>>487579009it's _fun_
>2k24>Still same unit cardsLiterally unplayable.
>>487579009I'm having fun but I've played for an hour or something.But it's looking good and runs extremely smooth
>>487579535THE VERDICT IS OUTITS FUN
We won, Bronze Age bros. We fucking won.
>>487577890why is Achilles in game but amazons aren't
Any cute girl in Pharaoh?
>>487579864Because Achilles was real.
>>487579386and campaign benchmarkmaybe if these sofia dudes made the warhammer campaign map it would not rape your systemthough it doesnt really matter since theres no reason to play immortal empires when we have the old world mod now
>>487579864Using an Iliad character for an actual, real life part of Mycenaean Greece since we have no recorded names is a lot less ahistorical than adding a faction of mythical warrior women.
>only 4 factionswhat the fuck? I thought they were adding everything historical from TROY?
>>487580078Afaik tausret is still the only playable gal.
>>487579656its so when you dont know if theres fanatics or not for when youre fighting them, the game doesnt tell you if they have fanatics
>>487580418click minor factions nigger, everyone except the amazons is there
>>487580418>he fell for the shill campaignlol, refund before time runs out
I'm not home from work for another few hours, what's the initial impressions of dynasties?The game the history lads have finally been waiting for?
>>487577735No more evil than your average Babushka.No matter what you aren't eating enough
>>487580537>except the amazonsIt hurts bros... at least stick Penny and some girls in a scythian faction...
>>487580776>The game the history lads have finally been waiting for?It's good I just don't like the period
>>487580776It has less players than 3K, and only a few hundred more than Rome 2. What do you think?
>>487580976Scythians aren't a thing yet. You could put her in the Cimmerians which are basically proto-Scythians but even their inclusion was kind of ahistorical, it's a couple hundred years too early.
>>487580078I hope the best girl from Greek mythology(Penelope) is in, even if she's definitely not playable and just there to pump out kids
The old world mod got updated, now with more Dark Lands details. Looks amazing.
where can I view what character do I have? I'm supposed to have helen as agamemnon, I can sell her via diplomacy but I can't see anywhere else
>>487581312It's too early for assyrians to have cav but here we are
Why does Legendschizo hate Pharaoh so much exactly?
>>487581678I genuinely used to think he was some kind of shitposter just looking to make the general unusable but I'm not even sure about that anymore, the dude is way too dedicated. I just genuinely can't believe someone is that dedicated to a TW e-celeb.
>>487581678Histchads fucked his wife
>Kurunta starts with a wife and kidsI thought he was an incel
>>487581312and you know this from a pottery shard or something?
>>487581678Legend said Pharaoh is shit. That's enough.
Who is he?Why do they worship him?Why is he so happy?
>>487581998No, mostly records from the era. Pretty much every civilization from this time was absurdly autistic about records.
FINAL COUNT IS 5,700.
>>487581992incels are evolving and finding love with femcels

Take that Lindy!
>>487586246There is a passfag but the funny thing is he's insulted Pharaoh for months so I dunno where the legendschizo is even getting the idea that Pharaoh posts are all by the passfag.

Do I need Pharaoh installed to play Dynasties or can I uninstall it freely?
>>487587238Isnt that the guy who makes 20 min videos for every fucking hotfix? He's probably editing a 200h video assay on how Pharaoh sucks or something idk.

I thought Faction units were shared and Native units were different. I didn't know all factions have their own different faction and native units. Now I wanna play Bay.

ULTIMATE WARRIORUNSURPASSEDSON OF A GODDESS AND A KING!
as a person who never got past 5 turns in pharaoh who I should play to learn? Ramsess?
>>487587317T'scooooool
>>487589624As a game that never got past 5 people playing it, why should you play it?
>>487538089Is there good mod support for Pharaoh? I don’t own the game but dynasties has me interested, I’m just worried about unit variety and mods are usually good at addressing that.
>>487589624Ramsesses is pretty much the intended starter character, yeah. >>487589790Not really, it's only been out for a year and old mods don't work with the new Dynasties version of the game anyways.
>>487589727so we can bond over it and get 5 new friends
>>487589727It's ok soihammer fag, you can pay for new toys soon!
>>487588962I'm an AOR/Auxiliafag so native units is what I love to see. Frankly the whole dynast system works perfectly for a medieval 3 and claimants to the throne.>CA sofia does M3>But the monkey's paw curls and they release with just British Isles + France >>487589790Impossible to say right now. Agony was/is the big name mod (besides radious and >Radious) that released for troy and Pharaoh. There's a risk of brain drain but given the higher variety you can run with for Pharaoh now it's viable to see more units. The main thing I'd expect to see soon enough is cavalry mods. I'm working on some texturing, I'd like to do a 730 BC mod but I am not sure how much one man can pull that off. So my thinking is I'll stagger it - first retextures, then new units (IE still the base campaign experience but some iron age stuff added), then if I can learn how and it's not difficult change faction placements and lords and such. Since I like that 700 period as you get some new options opening up like Lydian lancers.
>>487589790its easy to mod like all the total war games but also has a shitload of axemanii and spearmanii so you dont really need more of those
>>487589534And people say 4chan ain't a place for friends.
>>487589790most of Pharaoh's mods to date were QoL and combat overhauls but it's going to be a completely new workshop anywaythe new lethality system is basically doing what the Slaughter in the Sands mod did, although I think that author was still planning on updating it for Dynasties
>charging across a muddy field while I have archers on a hillI see the French chivalry already existed in the bronze age.

Is the Autobattle notoriously shit in this game? I was meant to suffer a "medium number of casualties"I literally just went into a basic formation, smashed into the enemy, fighting UPHILL, and no one died
>>487590886Champions of Troy have identical stats to Golden Spearmen. Guards of Troy have 10 more armor than Veteran Hittite Spearmen.
>>487591763Seems like they are pretty neck and neck. There is going to be a lot of heavy spearmanii vs heavy spearmanii in Anatolia.

>>487592547other way around, Egyptians very much didn't like sending their princes and princesses abroad and asked other powers to send consorts to them everybody thought they were being weird about it because sending off your daughters was common in Mesopotamia

Getting this weird stutter in Total War Pharaoh Dynasties as I move. What’s a good single setting to turn down ? It happens when I rotate on the campaign map while moving and also just moving around in battle.I have a 2080 TI. Looking for some heavy hitting setting to adjust.
>>487538817Cimmerians are among the oldest races, descended from the Atlanteans, who arrived from a land which long ago sunk beneath the waves and was lost to history. As a race, they have scarcely changed in appearance, demeanor, or temperament. Like the Atlanteans, they are dark-haired and have eyes of gray, blue, or green. They are tall and rangy, with powerful builds, while their skulls are long. Unlike the Nordheimer, though, Cimmerians are generally darker-skinned, almost as much so as the Picts, a race they deeply despise. Also, like the Picts, Cimmerians are adept climbers, able to find purchase in any rock-face or tree and scale it quickly without fear. In temperament, Cimmerians are a dour and moody lot, practical, yet proud, prone to both brooding and boastfulness, often maddened by the futility of life. Cimmerians only exult in the heat of battle, since the rest of the time their moods are black and occasionally morose.To a Cimmerian, family and kith are the strongest bonds, since their clans spread across settlements and throughout the land, so they might find kin-folk far and wide. It's rare for a Cimmerian to become curious about the world beyond their village, much less showing an interest in anything outside their grim and bleak country. Their language, called Cimmerian by others and Gaeilge by the Cimmerians themselves, is their own, and is not spoken outside their lands. It has little in common with the speech of other folk, and has more to do with the Atlantean strain than any of the Hyborian tongues spoken by their neighbors in the south, or the language of the Nordheimer.Cimmerians, as a people, are independent and clannish. They consider themselves as stubborn foes, holding fast in their hills, their valleys, and their bogs, resisting even the ancient Acheronians, who could gain no purchase against them, leaving the fierce hillmen to their own rocky abode

>>487592873Helmets and armor were still commonly made of bronze or linen until the romans
>>487592873The old trope was inaccurate that iron is just vastly better to bronze in quality. It's that iron is vastly vastly cheaper to get. It requires more work to pull off and good bronze is better than iron, but steel pulls ahead of either.

hey guys im playing the new slop game and im having so much fun!you should buy this game tooooooo!!!!!!!!
>>487592873Iron armor was shit. The only reason they started making it from iron is because high quality bronze recipes were lost for centuries along with the copper and tin trade routes.

>>487590206Sounds pretty cool, wish you luck anon. It would have been nice if they added more of Iran for a potential Rise of Persia sort of mod, but obviously we frankly just don't have a lot of detail on what was happening there in the bronze age. Still, if they did that(even if just the western portions) Pharaoh could be a pretty neat map for like a Rise of Persia or even Diadochi wars campaign.
So what the fuck is the point of the Old World map? Just having more space?

>>487596234Yes.
>>487596353Family trees have some nice flavor, Odysseus is obviously married to Penelope. Some play completely different, for instance Rhesus has entirely Thracian stuff.

>>487597532Resources matter and trade agreements are your friend.
Shill me on this game
>>487596028More space with absolutely nothing in it. Your 40-turn campaign will take 80 turns instead, because everything is twice as far as normal. That's about the only difference.
>>487597201Doesnt matter if they survive or not. You have to research it to open confed with Alberic/Louen/Feet Ench.Repanse has +50 with humans +50 Brets tech that you have to reseach early. It allow you to confed Lyonesse very early and from there you can confed all of Bretonnia.

>>487598209he literally lives in the middle east
>>487597532What the other anons said, trade is incredibly important because most factions usually start with at most one of them. Protect your general, they're not one man armies like in Warhammer and die even easier with the new lethality system. Get chariots ASAP because even if you don't want to use them in battle due to their finickiness most of the time period is infantry so you want at least something to run enemies down.

I just saved Greece from the Dark Ages.
>>487596876Maneuverability and ability for units to operate indepdendently. A phalanx was basically one massive unit. Sure they might be organized into separate phalanxes but tactically they basically formed a massive spiky wall. The roman army meanwhile was much more individually organized, stemming from its roots in the warband system of italian warfare. Tactically, early roman troops were basically skirmishers who can fight in melee when they have to. So if they saw a phalanx, they could more adeptly lead it into terrain to disrupt it, or flank it etc. Additionally since roman armies were not supplied by the state/King directly as in the east, but rather by either themselves or a much closer relationship to some sort of patron, their equipment was quite good and well developed since they had more of an incentive to get the best possible gear for themselves/their immediate subordinates if they were a noble leading troops.
>>487596028More empty space makes field battles far more common to break the monotony of endless sieges. This is by far my favorite change, the map takes time to get around so maneuvering matters instead of a bunch of people just beelining for settlements.There's also more detail per area, most areas have ~2-3 times the settlements to make fighting over them more fun and last longer. This helps campaigns feel more like classic Warhammer campaigns, bringing the detail level from worldwide conquest to national conquest. The war for Karak Eight Peaks is actually fought by Belegar, Skarsnik, and Queek, and takes longer than a single settlement battle. The Darklands contrasts between wide empty reaches of desert with a few small settlements and dense clusters of settlements at major fortresses, with Zharr Naggrund as a multi-province industrial area in the middle of a slave revolt. Mountain ranges are labyrinths, giving Underway races a serious advantage there. Athel Loren is actually a whole bunch of wood elf kingdoms, so you can spend a big part of your campaign conquering it instead of bumrushing 5 settlements. There's also a big pirate area with factions based on Dreadfleet if you like nautical stuff, and you can spend most of your campaign doing sailing around doing pirate stuff instead of conquering Ulthuan or w/e.There's also more faction variety in each area; so an average long campaign will see you play against most factions. The LLs are also way more spread out in most areas, meaning you get to fight them after they get their cool toys instead of fighting Teclis with a stack of spears and archers. Notable exception is Albion which is a bloodbath of cool LLs that don't really fit the main map but which could have conceivably fought in the 2002 Albion campaign, like Kroq Gar, Yuan Bo, or Morathi.
nice words retard

How’s the new pharaoh update? I have an itch to get back into historical total war and heard it’s unironically the best one since Shogun 2
>>487599842they get mention in both Troy and Mycenae's intros as already having fallen, which is accurate because they got conquered by Greeks a couple centuries earlier and were no longer relevantthe Egyptians miss them too which is amusing because IRL Egyptians simped for their culture and copied Minoan style buildings in lower Egypt
>>487596028IE, ME and TWW1 maps are shitty themeparks where everything is too small and too close to each other. No faction has the chance to grow to be the powerhouse to oppose the player. Cities are so close to each other that every battle is a siege, which also forced CA to remove minor settlement battles to make room for normal battles. IE also wasted map expansion on fanfiction Asia instead of upscaling areas that matter. The Old World cuts the bloat out and resizes actually important regions to proper size. Now Bretonnia and Athel Loren aren't embarrassingly small and you can have proper campaigns in them. And that's not to mention how great the Empire is now or how fun actually retaking the realms as Dwarfs is. There is even a proper fight for Karak Eight Peaks between Belegar, Queek and Skarsnik.All ChaosRobbie has to do is make similar map for Elves and there is no reason to ever touch IE to be honest.

>>487605482If you're too stupid to use CreamAPI you deserve all the paypigging desu
Using direct fire into an enemy flank is insane, feels like a musket line
>>487605405>>487605664Cream doesn't work for Pharaoh, it detects it and refuses to load : ^ ). Luckily only blood is paid, we even got the pre-order skins for free this update. Pharaohchads keep winning.
>>487605978If true that is the exact opposite of winningWouldn't know since I don't buy shit games
>>487605779good, getting shot by arrows directly should be deadly
>>487606097There are limits to being retarded.
>>487606216Yeah, the limit for being retarded is pretending that CreamAPI not working is somehow a good thing
>Slaanesh has 3 legendaries (N'kari, Sigvald, and Azazel>Tzeentch has 3 (Kairos, Vilitch, and Changeling)>Nurgle now has FOUR (Kugath, Festus, Tamurkhan, and Epidimus)>Khorne only has two (Skarbrand and valkia)how will CA balance this out?
>>487605201It's just normal pvp, you make a multiplayer battle game, then select any of the hundred maps, or download custom ones. You can filter maps that have objectives or certain layouts like castles and whatnot.There's some cool maps that have endless enemy spawns. You can also set how big the armies are, unit type caps, unlimited herounits, and assign how much gold each army gets starting out to build their army. 9k-13k is the norm in most pvp games. you'll see 20k-30k too, or like 15k with two small 7k armies, one starting and one reinforcing.
>>487606482bro?
>>487606292It does not work for one singular 3 dollar blood DLC, it doesn't have to work for the other updates because they were all free from the get go.
>>487606554Copium, go buy your blood DLC
I love wardancer syrup
>>487606682Not an issue, it and Pharaoh cost less than buying Warhammer 3 even if you cream everything for it lmao
>>487606998>Not an issueYou better have paid at least a 40% tip for that blood DLC, CA's DEI team worked hard to give it to you

>>487606482Skarbrand gotta lift his tail and make sure the blood flows where it should go if he wants a Khorne friend
>>487607561This looks more dysgenic than a reddit meet up
>>487605978>creamJust use one of the newer unlockers. Cream is like 10 years old. Or just use one of the steam cracks that let's you download every game free. I play multiplayer daily on my Total Warhammer 3 downloaded for free and all the bonus content as well. Steam is jewish and it''s easily jewed.
>>487607650Depends on how you like your battles and whether you like hordes, I guess. I won't deny Rome 2 definitely got the better DLC.
>>487607650>Atilla is worse than Rome 2lol, LMAO Rome 2 is a clown game.
>>487607858Cream being old seems to have worked in its favor, all the new shit like SmokeAPI got zanned by Steam.
>>487608069They are coming after cream too.
>>487608154Source? Sounds like coping from people who've bought hundreds of dollars of DLC.
>>487608328It's just a matter of time.
>>487608407So cope, got it.

Which Pharaoh campaign do I do to learn the mechanics? It's my 1st hist game
>>487546558Skaven are all nazi coded.
>>487609209Ramesses
>>487609209Ramesses is the intended starting campaign. If you want lots of starting territory in the corner of the map, Agamemnon.
how do I into diplomacy for pharaoh? TWWH diplo was INCREDIBLY straightfoward, how much more complex is it in pharaoh?
>>487600913>More empty space makes field battles far more common to break the monotony of endless sieges. Honestly, when the fuck are people finally going to do the correct thing and drop the 3d map?
>>487607561
>>487609504Retvrn to S1 and M1 map.
>>487609498It's a bit more complex it's basically Warhammer diplomacy with a barter system, legitimacy trading and adoption mechanics. And a few more bells and whistles.
Tried out Pharaoh Dynasties today after buying the original game and then not really playing it Mostly just because I got distracted playing other games, what little I played it seemed fine, I have to ask: How lethal is the game towards characters? I honestly thought Three Kingdom struck a pretty neat balance between "Heroes are mortal" and "Heroes die every single time they lose a battle", and I hope this game continues it.
>>487607650I liked both :|
>>487609720Yes.No, seriously, I know people would be furious. But if they revealed "Medieval 3: No 3D map" I would be all over it. It was a bad idea in Rome 1, it continued to be a bad idea in Medieval 2, and it's been a millstone around the game since then.
>>487608328Ignore it brother, it's Steam cucks new copeAPI.
>>487609883very, anons are getting Agamemnon killed turn 1I saw that apparently it's a bug and your general is only supposed to be killable after 60% of his bodyguards die but the lethality system doesn't respect that, honestly people losing their main character to the starting enemies is fucking hilarious and CA should keep things as is
>>487609883It's pretty lethal. Your leaders WILL die if you allow them to get shot at.
>>487610298>>487610316That's a bit of a shame. Especially if it also applies to the AI. I like leaders being mortal again, but the game is still character driven enough that having them drop so easily feels off.
>>487610428There's an immortal leaders campaign option if you want, faction leaders will only die if their faction does.
>>487610763I might. It depends on how prone the AI is to getting their generals killed. I can take or leave your own leader being easily murdered.
>>487610071Ngl I did enjoy the S1 map when I played the game a few years back.
>>487609504Total war is only popular because it combines 4X and RTT wellIf it abandons either pillar, it will failThey just need to find a way to remove the autoresolve problem
>>487567629>>487568483>>487568932imagine a world where islam never took over the middle east...vgh...
>>487611126Making it hex based would work fine as well. Do something similar to Humankind or Age of Wonder.
>>487549315Just get the no scaling cost for amethyst units mod that's about it. Even with it, it took me til turn 100 to max out amethyst ships(which imo are a complete waste of schematics) and I barely had amethyst units so to speak despite owning half the planet and having 100k income per turn
>>487542719>>487543559Explain the Babylon skaven meme
>>487611287Tbh I know a muslim dude and I thought it was almost cute when he was asking his girl to wear more stuff there's no malice in it to them its just a matter of decency
>>487611842Babylon's niche is that it has shit tier units that have the expendable trait and taskmaster units that keep them in line, just like skaven/chorfs.
>>487612079>there's no malice in it to themUntil they start beating people to death over it.
>>487611842they're more like chorfs than skavenshitty numerous units that need buffs from "taskmaster" units
>>487611842That's how they sold the faction on their blog or whatever we want to call it. The description was along: drown the enemy in low tier spears, swords and slings with some dedicated support units. The only unique thing is the supports the description is basically hey here's skavenslave spam you rike?
Which starts in pharaoh would be considered best to ease up into mechanics?
>>487612628tausret is a good simple start and you learn the importance of resources
>>487612628>ease up into mechanicsany faction will do, the game slowly unlocks and explains new mechanics over the course of the first 20 turns or so
>>487611287>imagine a world where jews didn't subvert peopleYeah, must be nice wherever that timeline is. Jews created Islam to counter the rising Christian empires like in Ethiopia, then when the Jews new, 100th puppet at that point, fucked around killing Christians in the area for not converting Ethiopia went totally sick house on all their asses including the Jews, just like the Assyrians, the Babylonians, the Egyptians, the Phoenicians, yada yada yada yada yada
>>487606482Khorne is getting 2 lords in the next DLC (one paid and one free).Tzeentch might be getting an FLC lord in the future.You will have your equilibrium.
>>487612142Thing is wep types are exactly the same as what skavenslaves use. But nobody really plays with skavenslaves forever as skaven
>>487609504>>487610071Is the problem the 3d map? Because when I am looking at the campaign map here, I see a https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPxqCEV-Cy8 similar-ish number of provinces, I just assume that not every province has you having to do a siege. For exmaple around 10:09 he invades wales - and it's a field battle. There's no castle. I assume M1/S1 limited castle sieges to very important provinces (IE London or paris). We don't need to go back to the primitive roots, there can just be a way of handling the question with more finesse. What happened in real life when you rolled up to a city? Either they went>Fuck off we're not surrenderingor>Oh shit yeah we surrenderSo make the chance that a province goes over to an invading army based on variables like the dread/honor of the general, the religion/ethnicity of the general, the size of their army relative to the size and proximity of an allied army, whether there was any recent great defeats or great victories, ect. And then make sure the AI recognizes this and also understands that if you yield the field and just turtle in a garrison it increases the chance that provinces throw over to the invader IE:>Persian army in levant after Alex victorious at Issus>If they hold up in gaza, they increase gaza's chance of resisting https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Gaza_(332_BCE) >But if they hold up in gaza then the modifier for the persian army being in the field is drastically reduced, making other provinces in the levant and Syria less likely to stay loyal.And possibly have 'medium cities' just provide an additional army to allied armies in the area instead of a garrison. You attack Rome? It's a siege. You attack Capua? The Romans get a free 15-20 man stack but it's a field battle.>>487612142I applaud that design, I think it's an easy way to remedy the 'spearmanii' situation of historicals if you have that kind of thematic variance.
>>487614134>>487614134>>487614134
>>487612206Yeah, then it gets based
>>487613094>>I assume M1/S1 limited castle sieges to very important provinces (IE London or paris). This is not true. In your example, there is no siege because Wales does not have a castle. In S1/M1, provinces didn't need to have settlements. However, building settlements in every province was a good idea both for the protection and to unlock more buildings. Once a province had a settlement, they invasion would still play out like in your example but afterwards you would lay siege to the castle in a way that is mostly the same to what we have now.
