Reminder that Miao Ying isn't her actual name. Her cervix is extremely weak to BWC and she turns into a cock-drunk pleasure-drowned mewling slut in bed. Some gaijin once told her she's "meowing" and she misheard and has built her entire personality around being "Miao Ying" for burly foreign devils.
>>493247437that's clearly a rocket launcher girlvery cute I might add
Thanquol soon, friends!
>>493247437>>493249372Would weak(think no armor-piercing, low model count, something like dorf flamethrowers but longer range and less damage) rocketlaunchermanii be OP or would they fit? I'm surprised they don't already have a lord option that uses something like that, similar to Empire engineers and their grenade launchers
>No more Skaven dlc>Stormvermin never friends>Verminlord never friends>Skaven reworks never friends>Thanquol NEVER EVER friends
It's dumb as hell that they have this extremely oddly-shaped bit of map here that seems like it would be the perfect place to put the Chaos Realms but they don't. Literally just copypaste it over from RoC and toss some one-way or daemon faction-locked teleport gates leading to the material world and you're done.
>>493249781I hope they find a way to shoehorn the chaos realm battlemaps into immortal empires.All that work goes unseen now and it's not the maps fault they were stuck in a shitty campaign.i poste again :)
>>493249740Whats the original pic without Thanquol edit? The art looks really cool
Time to take out the trash, and by trash I mean Morathi's 20 black arks.

Where will yinyin be on IE map? 3 dragons already in china she will surely be somewhere outside but where?>sea dragoninb4 m*rienburg
>>493250121A new landmark in Maelstorm. Sea Dragon's bones.
Once Yin-Yin gets released and she ISN'T a blue-haired anime girl like Aqua and is instead a fugly middle aged bitch I'm going to laugh
>>493250121could stick her in myrmidens to give cathay a start in the old world since its a big trade port and to kill us dogs of war hopers
>>493250437Why would you laugh? Nobody genuinely expects her to look attractive because CA is pathologically incapable of not making every female Warhammer character ugly if not mediocre at best.As always, Modders Will Fix It[TM]
>>4932501211st they have to open all the unused space.

>>493250904really should just shove more regions into that top right corner for chaos fags to play around inwould do wonders for uncluttering the map even if expanding the whole map upwards by a province or two would be more ideal

Should put her in Sudenberg desuRight now Repanse and Volkmar gangrape all the TKs and wipe them out with ease every playthrough, they can do with some competition

>>493249561if the have drawbacks, in this case a lack of AP damage and being vulnerable low model units, then no they wouldn't be that OP
Yinyin peed herself again.....
>>493251693>gets rekt in Lustria>gets rekt in Araby>cities full of Tzeentch cultistsshe's a good girl, but a bit of a mess
They will make Yin yin a guy. You saw it here first.
>>493249740>Stormvermin never friends
Yin-Yin is going to be a great lord and super fun to play and really cool when her trailer comes out everybody is going to be like "wow Yin-Yin is super cool!!" and everybody is going to love her and her DLC is going to be the highest selling one to date!trust the sea dragon plan!
YEAH BITCH THATS WHAT YOU FOR COMING TO LUSTRIA
Yin-Yin will never be released from captivity. Miao Ying and Yuan Bo locked her up because she was too big of an embarrassment to the family. She spends all her time in human form in Nan-Gau NEETmaxxing, reading yaoi scrolls and playing board games.
>>493251356That's what IEE did
>>493253002She's still allowed to eat humans, right?
>>493253296Exclusively humans
>>493253296Nope, Miao insisted everyone was needed for the war effort so she's been forcing her sister to eat normal food as a punishment. This far inland there isn't even any seafood to be had. Poor Yin-Yin...
>>493251837You know what, who cares, all ratniggers looks alike.Now ignore the part where I looked like a bitch
>>493253002>spoiler ngl, I want to apply correction to those cheeky Asian female NEETs

>>493253805>>493253876its a picture you retards
Zamn! Yinyin looks like THAT?
>>493250121Most fun suggestion for me would go full 'Yin-Yin's lost again' and have her start in one of several random coastal spots on the map.Then I'd put Li Dao in the darklands, going on the offense against chorfs, until about 30 turns in you get a message that Zhao's let Gelt take over part of the southern provinces.
>>493253680>>493253805>>493253876>>493253940Who to believe? This is clearly the work of Chi'an Chi.

>>493254368does Yakety Sax play as she's running away from the demons?
>>493254368we need a comedy series about her misadventures outside chinaor a top gear show with Yin, Miao and Zhao as hosts

>>493256831Pharaoh had a video yesterday, so it's probably next week for steamed Warhams
Dear god, never fought delves on max diff before, they're like the strongest enemies in the game now. AP 360 machine gun crossbows, feels like something out of a mod. Lost 100% of my chadtosans, including those in my starting army, the one who basically solo'd the brutes of the hound in Skarbrand's stack, and the unit that fought off three units of furies single handedly when they were eviscerating my caster. Lothern shall hence he known as "City of the Thirtheen-Hundred. Rest in peace, my godly friends.
>>493247323
>>493258835how do i join the "Cult of Pleasure" irl?
>>493258835Dude, you are literally have T1 trash against 3 stacks, what else do you expect? CA make AI back to Wh2 days with stack spamming. Hire better armies (not nessesary doomstacks, just better) or suffer heavy losses. This is how it should be, player shouldn't roll though map with starting trash armies with shit tier untis, it's way too easy.
>>493262935Ignore that autist, he's been using the same faction and the same army for years.
>>493258835>almost entire army of tier 1 shitters>no rangedyeah no shit it's hard
3k bros, do you put ranged units in non-strategist retinues? For when u want ranged but no strategist in the army..
>>493264460I always have a strategist it's how you get the good shit like the chu-ko-nu and the trebuchets
Thomin want's you...
>>493264460>>493264735yeah I just got a treb on my other stackbut fuck, both commander n vanguard are cav-focused...
>>493259732>exile some dude because he cant work metal and stone instead of finding him a different job>NOOOOOOO HOW THE FUCK COULD HE JUST BETRAY US? WHY WOULD HE DO THIS? FUCK!
>>493259732this story created by WHFRP is directly contradicted by other things, at least most of it isskavor likely has nothing to do with skaven. it seems he existed but, beyond being a dwarf with the power to "shape flesh", nothing is known about himhis power is also completely unique to him among dwarfs, how it works and what it even means is not known eitherif the equipment in TWWH3 is anything to go by, he didn't even have any special powers, it was actually from a set of magical gauntlets

How the fuck do you use Bloodletters? I try and use them as a hammer to my Warrior anvil and they immediately die as soon as anything sneezes on them. Autoresolve shits on them too.
>>493267413you get a bunch of thema lot of bloodlettersand you charge all of them directly at the enemy
Today I will try out SFO
>>493267954SLAYERS (armored) enjoy
>>493267413Unironically just use more warriors
does the dragon mean anything related to liu bei or the han or is it just a cool dragon
You guys are making three kingdoms look fun... I might have to buy it sometime...
>>493268302watching the show took it from "what the fuck i don't care about any of this" to "holy shit its that guy and I can play as him", great show and intro to the setting imo
I still cannot play as this guy
I onyl use Overseers so I can hear some more great Chorf voice lines like 'Hashoot drrrengi dreng!'.
you dare step to the white dwarf?
>>493269450>all that flames against khorneyou're fucked
uhh where do I get more characters? For stuff like administrator roles, I got 8 slots rn, huge
>>493270292i dont see any fire resistance on any of his units, only physical and magic
>>493270292How much is their fire res - 25%? Cause that don't mean shit, the same way you can melt the Dwarfs with spells.
>playing Changeling>ally vlad>get corpse carts because their bonuses actually work for ALL units, not just undead(it would specify if it was undead only)giving +5 MA/MD and permanent vigor to chosen is OP
>>493271052that's such a huge oversight and it makes me mad! So easy to fix too (specify units with crumbling).
>>493262935>>493264296Yea, this armies built for farming treasure islands but they suck in sieges. If this was a map battle it would have been closer but trying to get units off walls is impossible. They keep running back. Ironically for coast thought I think horde tactics might be my best option against these guys. They'll drop crabs or depthguard just as fast and artillery is boring as shit.
>>493271052Dance macabre works on living units too. Might be lore or tabletop related.
>>493269450Are Irondrakes really better than Thunderers for that kind of massed spam?
>>493262935>>493264296Don't underestimate these guys in her stack though. They can get pretty monstrous. This was from earlier in the campaign.
>>493264854wouldmore?
>>493271339>>493269450sacrifices were made>>493273832i just use them for fun and because grombrindle buffs them. they are super good but kill drench your own units in dawi hell fire as well. i normally just use a stack that matches LL buffs. belegar is still running around with miners and rangers
>>493274156forgot pic
>>493274031that's all I've gotten from this thread, sorry
>>493273832>>493274156actually now that i think about it i should probably just replace the longbeards with more irondrakes since they have all that fire resist and use one group as bait for the second line to fire into

I refuse to play a game with AI cheats this obscene
> is the AI just spawning high tier units out of thin air now?yes? Thats how VC work they can Raise units
>>493276531brother... Vampires can raise dead...
>>493276812how is he raising cairn wraiths, varghests etc while having 0 recruitment centers? are they are a horde faction?
>>493277130vampires can raise dead in any province regardless of it being theirs or not, or having recruitment buildingsand if big battles have taken place with a lot of death, the units they can raise can be higher tier units too
>>493277271so why do they even have recruitment centers then if they can just insta-raise a high level stack?also thank god cheats exist so I don't let this bullshit ruin my campaign :)
>>493277453because they cant raise infinite amounts from a provincethey can only raise a certain amount until they run out and have to wait for the raise dead slots to replenish
>SLAAAAY THEMWhat brettonian units sued faction colors besides non-footsquire infantry?
rip AI cheatstack
>>493277453>empire player>NOOO WHAT GAME MECHANICS ARE UNFAIR *downloads cheat to win*honestly? Not even shocked I cant even insult you thats how empire players are
>>493277873I could've easily crushed Vlad's army with Elspeth's army which was in range, I just haven't played VC in depth and didn't realize they could raise an entire powerful stack in one turn, so I left Elspeth elsewhere. Why should I have a perfect campaign marred due to ignorance? If you're learning chess and you move a piece incorrectly, the other person will let you redo your move.
>>493277872King, I kneel.
>>493277872>AI using actual game mechanics>NOOO it's a cheat stack>he says while he actually cheatsdisgusting

guys where do I find more characters in 3K to hire as administrators?
Average fantasoi can't handle what's normal in Attila or Pharaoh.
>>493280635>researchingThe game literally tells you everything how to play each faction on turn 1.
didn't play pharaoh because it was doa but in atilla, armies actually have to recruit units
>>493280860>bro just play every faction in the game at least oncenah im good, got other shit to do
>>493280909The AI got insane recruitment time bonuses on legendary and Attila would literally respawn his stack every time he died. But please keep spelling out you played on the easiest difficulty and never got to the end game with Attila.
>>493281091>get a game>not gonna play it, got other shit to do
yes, respawning his stack away in his own territory, which is much the same as recruiting several armies at once and combining them which the player can donot spawning a stack while inside the player's territory so you have no chance to recruit a defensebut please keep getting mad as fuck that I'm playing the game fairly :)

Why am I always fighting wars against five different factions at a time? It doesn't seem to matter how I play or what I faction I choose.Always. My kurunta campaign just ended on turn 23 because sarpedon declared war on me 1 turn before one of Hatti's vassals declared war on me. I had a nonaggression pact with hatti and they broke it. I beat 6 consecutive armies but still lost a settlement every turn before iolaos came in and finished me off.The anti-player bais has never fucked me so hard as in dynasties.
>>493291209AI uses turn counters to automatically force a certain number of wars based on difficulty. You answered your own question, anti-player bias is how CA disguises it doesn't know how to do difficulty.

>>493292604Playing as Tamurkhan, I once convinced Elspeth to break all treaties with Franz. He declared war on her soon afterwards, a war that she won in a decisive mannerI don't know the exact mechanics, but once your faction strength is high enough, you can convince a lot of factions to break treaties (Grimgor, for instance, almost always agrees to break NAPs or even alliances)
>>493291641This feels like the worst it's ever been. Not sure what to do really.

What's that story name that basically a precursor for Prince Yuri Barkovdescent into the chaos weights? Along with Tzarina Katarin and Kostaltyn getting into the fight and tensions before the campaign, I want to listen to the audio on YouTube again.
>>493295727Ripe for abuse. Again, I don't know the logic behind it (it doesn't always work), I'm guessing this is an option for a player who wants to ally with a particular race. Or it simulates a weaker faction agreeing to any demands coming from stronger ones (your). Doesn't always work but you can do a lot with what's available
>>493296160Its a bug and its been known for ages, the devs just aren't ever going to be given the ten dollars from Sega to fix it
>>493247323How to fix Druchii with a rework rework-Make a choose one or the other building set in regions for either generating slaves or consuming slaves for income. income buildings stacks so building more in different regions in the same province is beneficial while slave generating building reduce income generated/public order getting in the way of profitability and stability-add per army sacrifices that reduce loyalty of the non LL/Black ark commanders but gives good army benefits. (the lord is empowering themselves making them more rebellious) something like -5 loyalty and chance for -1 loyalty for 5 turns.tie this in to murderous prowess which no longer passively activates.-streamline cult of khaine and public order building like Morathi has-har ganeth death night only provides buffs and starts at zero(maybe slight debuffs to hellebron at the start). you have to build death night meter through battles and you get enough you can do a death night sacrifice to move up a tier but has a significant slave decay rate to maintain. blood voyages is now is now a free upkeep army you can control under har ganeth faction that has high blood night generation. if you drop a level of blood night you lose the blood voyage the next turn.-malekith has mechanics to vassalize any elven faction/race and gains more and more benefits as more LL elven factions are vassalized. -Morathi gains slaanesh seduction mechanic
so doomseekers suck and giant slayers are awesome?
>>493297182Doomseekers are based and will murder infantry like nothing, especially with their axe swingingGiantslayers absolutely massacre any large unit

The best tactic I've found for dealing with delves backed by a dragon wizard lords is to have Aranessa kill all of them. >>493298596I only get that on the sea map with the plateau. If you wait a super long time it eventually unpauses for me tho.

>>493297179No one cares about the drukeks
>>493302262>SFO
This sucks. Let's go back in time 5 years ago to 2019. Empire is supposed to suck, 3K isn't a real Total War, and Hyenas is going to doom the franchise once it comes out by making CA abandon it forever for hero shooter normiebuxx.
its time for the new convert to earn his keep
>>493302910Mods = cheats
>>493302925>dookie lovers are ratfagsthis explains a lot
>>493302925To what ends
>>493302925whats the lore behind skaven working with delves
>>493302925I wish I was that rat, imagine going out to slaughter Br*tonnians all day and then getting to drain your balls into high-grade A5 wagyu Druchii pussy all night. The delf girls ordered to service you glare at you the entire time and are always on the verge of cussing you out, but they can't because they lost favor at court(which is why they're here in the first place) while you're considered one of Morathi's most reliable and loyal generals. Defiling 500-year-old clean-shaven ultra-refined elf cunt and flooding her precious "For Worthy Mates Only - DO NOT TOUCH!" womb, your stinky yellowish grody cum surrounding and bullying her egg in an attempt at cross-species fertilization. One day your bedslave will surely snap and slit your throat in your sleep but by that point you'll probably have packed enough rat seed into her that some of it has reached her ovaries.
>>493303268the lore is if you have an immortal allied army lord under your control die of attrition they go into your lord pool and you can recruit them permanently when they recover
>>493303738>but by that point you'll probably have packed enough rat seed into her that some of it has reached her ovariesGenuinely, unironically have sex incel
I watched Morathi chasing Tyrion's stacks around the map all campaign but never actually got a look at her army. I was expecting something... more.
>>493304232By touching her so deeply it metaphysically corrupts her body so even after she's free from having to service ratcock and maybe even finds some lowly Druchi merchant who's willing to marry used goods, all the kids she'll bear will have rodent-like appearances.
>>493304397The feared Dreadspearmanii doomstack
Warhammer is pretty channy in general but what factions are at the end points of the spectum? IMO>Most chudObviously Dorfs, they even have that incel thing going on because there's like 10x as many males as there are foids>Most trannySurprisingly not N'Kari or any DElf faction, I think it's actually VCoast in general, their "female" generic lords are obviously MtF troons trying to put on a passing voice and failing. VCounts stink of rot, but VCoast stink of rotting fish and we all know what that means>Most channyHElves are pretty much right in the middle, Cathay maybe as well
Opinion: CA should buff all generic Exalted Daemons. It should never feel like a downgrade to go from a Herald to a Greater Daemon.
>>493304397An honorable clash of T1s. A blark somewhere deleted most of my army but Morathi definitely helped.
I love the blue scribes,Praise Tzeentch!
>>493304865this is a retarded and I think you should stop
>>493294461Basically when you ask someone to break a treaty with someone else, it SHOULD take their feelings toward the third party into consideration, with more hatred making it easier to break it for free. What HAPPENS is that it takes their feelings towards YOU into consideration instead and applies it to the third partyDefinitely a bug and something that shouldn't be relied on because you don't know how long it'll stay in
Treasure islands are the coziest total war experience of all time and were the best addition to the game ever. .

Would you like to estimate any of the upcoming lord stats?
>>493304094You mean by asking to your ally one of their armies first ?
If ancient Chinese kept getting flooded by the yellow river, why the fuck did they still build all their settlements around it
>>493308690Skulltaker:Armour-piercingAnti-infantry90 armour20% physical resistanceGolgfag:High healthArmour-piercing80 armourHas a ranged weaponGorbad:Armour-piercingAbove-average health70 armourArbaal:100 armourArmour-piercingFrenzyThey are all melee-focused lords so I imagine they will be a little statchecky.
>>493309159because it was also the best place to grow crops due to the very same flooding?floodplains are very fertile lands
>>493309159Have you seen the conditions in chink factories? They're basically retarded as a whole race, barely above pajeets.
>>493309159If the British and French had nearly infinite reinforcements, WW1 would not have been won by Germany's economic collapse.
My country isn't capable of building factories. At least we have some cool rocks that are placed in a circle.
>>493309703Nonsense desu, it's a magnificent and advanced civilization, they were even like centuries ahead in tech and beaurocracy than the japs back then, but today Japan catapulted in development, it's just the current of history that made the last few centuries unlucky for China, they're coming back these days tho
>>493309908Fuck off Chang
>>493309875Who was in charge of the German economy?
>>493309998lol they invented gunpowder and couldn't even figure out how to properly use it until europeans invented guns.
>>493309159floodplains are extremely fertilesure you might get your house destroyed by the occasional flood, but it's worth the risk no pain no gainalso the Chinese figured out pretty early how to build dams, these help (except when the country has a huge civil war and there's no government to maintain them)
>>493309159Terraforming has been part of Sinitic civilization for forever as a result. IIRC taming the Yellow River has been a major goal since the literal very beginning. They're also still on their bullshit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South%E2%80%93North_Water_Transfer_Project>>493310295>europeans invented gunsAnon...
>>493310295The ones guys that started using gunpowder effectively for warfare was mongols not europoors
>>4932648693k armies look so aesthetic. I wish soihammer could have this kind of composition.
>>493310443>>493310469Europeans were the ones who invented actual proper smooth bore guns. As in, guns that don't suck.
>>493310469First guys*>>493310550Yeah they're awesome but also there's only one race not like 10+, I bet it'd get boring quite faster than wh3, but yeah
>>493310550One of my long-term hopes(or copes) for Warhams is that, running out of room to shove more "zoom zoom bang wahoo big monster/cannon!"-type shit, they'll be forced to start making deeper mechanics. It's sort of coming true with Empire getting electoral mechanics and Dwarfs getting a rework for free. Hopefully they keep going so the game moves away from being only a spectacle simulator. My ultimate cope is they'll make battle maps bigger and battles slower.
>>493290640I'm pretty sure human-shaped hands have more than four fingers.Just double-checked my minis, Skinks definitely have four fingers.
A reminder that Three Kingdoms had the greatest launch of any Total War game.
>>493310789Whats the point of big battle maps when the fighting happens in one small section of it always though? If anything they're just an annoyance in Rome 2 etc
>>493310959I guess. I'm just nostalgiafagging for when battles lasted longer and flanks went wider, I guess.
>>493310959Positioning? It's not an annoyance in Rome 2 or Attila to actually have time to get to and utilize terrain.
>>493311181I want destructive battle maps, cities that can burn to ash, civilians to trample, forests u can light ablaze and choke infantry, random buildings in the battle map you can possibly even use, 3k has structures u can burn and forests even burn tho, it's awesomeRain is so fuckin frequent tho
>>493309703Chinks are retarded because all the smart ethical ones died in the communist purges. All that survived was violent self-serving bugmen.
>>493311475If there are no intelligent chinks why are all the news I see about them on TV seething about them
>>493310443>Terraforming has been part of Sinitic civilization for forever>they tried going at it thousands of years ago and are still failing todayWeird take, but OK.
>>493311581Because they're outright stealing shit from western countries most of the time lol
>>493311475That's just pure racist bullshit, the intelligentsia being massacred and mass calamity is nothing new to any major war in history and society always bounces back, people are much more maleable and a product of their environment than animals are, so you can't "kill out" ethics even if u wanted to, they just had a hard life under Mao etc it's that simple, the avg chink zoomer in 2024 living in smth like Shanghai or Beijing comfortably is no different than the zoomers in ur country
>>493310789As far as deeper game mechanics go, I mostly wish for changes to controls/AI (like making skirmish mode better, and making more things similar to skirmish mode) to reduce the amount of micro you have to do, so you have more time to zoom in and properly appreciate the spectacle that is like 40% of the game's selling points.
>>493311581>watching TV
>>493293956Why would you do that? It's be like shoving your hand into a cold, dead fish that's been out in the sun for a week. Unless...you're a filthy heretic
>>493311581I would seethe too if my clinically retarded neighbor was playing with explosives.
>>493311735Those two statements aren't mutually exclusive anon, for example you've been thinking your entire life but that hasn't made you very good at it either.
Chang...
>>493311818> people are much more maleable and a product of their environment than animals How convenient.
>>493311751China is on par with most western places in the innovation index, and it's not "western companies" its American companies, you need money to boost innovation, and US has a ton of money, all the smart europeans and Indians and arabs and everything everywhere is goin to the US that's why their companies lead innovation like that, these days it's changing though and I bet China will start surpassing the west in that soon given how brainrotted and engrossed in fall of Rome bs the avg western teen is, while they still teach Chinese hard work
>its another "3k mentioned -> uh oh melty" episode
>Red Eye Mountain, formerly known as Karak Ungor, or the Delving Hold is a massive fortress-city of the Night Goblins of the Red Eye Tribe, which was conquered during the onset of the Goblin Wars. At the Dwarfs' height during the Golden Age, Karak Ungor boasted one of the deepest and richest mines in all of Karaz Ankor. As the ore and mineral deposits were finally dug out completely, the Dwarfs simply abandoned the tunnels, never expecting the consequence of such ill-vigilance would have upon their kingdom. this seems to be the reason karak ungol isnt the province capital and literally who khazid irkulaz is instead...i guess. although ungol *does* have a gold mine still, its just a minor settlement onestill ungol should be the capital and it should just have a special building of a depleted gold mine that does something https://warhammerfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Red_Eye_Mountain
>>493311818>they just had a hard life under MaoAnd still do, even though Mao is long dead. The problem is not that they're chest-deep in shit, it's that they're settling in.

>>493311990Good. You should worship me as much as you worship the bugmen, then.
>>493249561Wish Cathay got that instead of what their DLC actually was.
>>493312321Many don't though, the rural population is still shit, but literally hundreds of millions of Chinese are chilling in pretty developed urban centers these days and it's only getting better, given how that country has more population than US + Europe put together they have their shit remarkably in order, Europe (still) can't even get the EU together and stop infighting
>>493312452Chinks too, the only difference is that chinks have a bigger plot of land, so their explosives don't go flying out onto mine all the time. It's still dangerous, though.
>>493312206>theySure, the west is going to fall any day now you neutral, uninvolved party.

this faggot is the retarded miao smugposter isn't he?
>>493312715I accept your concession.
>>493310849Chink sales don't count because their government subsidizes and promotes slop for soft power growth, just look at how inflated the numbers are on the new Elden Ring clone while nearly 100% of reviews are in chink
>>493312698Don't think it's gonna fall, US in particular is too big to fall, and it's still leading in every growth metric, Europe's hayday is long past and it's gonna be a geriatric old folks home eventually tho, while the American-Chinese block uses them as puppetsNear future events all depends on if Xi manages to snatch Taiwan before US can react, that'd solidify China's global rise
>>493312959Who knows. He might just be part of a chinese collective of retarded Miao smugposters.
>Three Changdoms released over 5 years ago>Still causing gweilos to shit themselves in rage to this day
>>493313062You're schizo, the game is cheaper in China yes, about 30 USD instead of 60, it's popular there because it's by a Chinese dev and based on their most famous mythological work, hence the big Chinese playerbase, that game is nothing like elden ring anyways, it's not open world
>>493313279>30 USD instead of 60 USDAnd? 60 bucks is chump change for most Americans outside of muzzie illegals cleaning toilets for lower than minimal wage. 30 USD in chinkbuxx is a week's wage
>>493313065>that'd solidify China's global riseYup, after they lose WW3 and become an American colony they will get aid just like Japan did after WW2. That will help them rise back.I just can't wait for a repeat of 55 Days in Peking.

>>493313414Given how much Chinese blow on gacha shit don't think it's a stretch to imagine the gamers there can spend 30$ on a popular release>>493313461WW3 isn't possible, modern economies simply aren't built for ww2 style total war, nor are Americans gonna be willing to die for an island of Chinese being taken back into the fold, and the small professional US army is good at fighting insurgents and proxy wars, not real ones between nuclear powers, basically it can't happen, if Xi snags Taiwan in a few days before US can react he'll probably keep it, if not it'll become a proxy war slog and might even collapse the CCP if it goes bad enough
>>493312206> I bet China will start surpassing the west in that soona-any day now ...
>US army is good at fighting insurgents>bad at fighting traditional warsokay now we know this retard is trolling
>>493313716It's kind of hilarious that all this started from some guy essentially asking why a civilization would base itself in a floodplain(which floods by definition) and we've reached Reddit-levels of "China is coming to eat my ass" discourse in less than 50 postsStill not as bad as when TWTK first released though

>>493315079You could have said the same thing abot Russia before 2022.
>still going at it
>>493315373Meanwhile Russia is still buying a ton of western products through intermediaries, the west is still buying a ton of Russian oil through 3rd parties, basically nothing changed except some barking and poor saps sitting in some wet trenches to take uninhabited steppe, some war, Taiwan would be more intense I guess, but it's only a matter of time until Taiwan falls, they're literally an island of Chinese people that's 100km off the coast of the mainland with a rapidly rising global footprint, there's no way they think they'll avoid the reunification, that's why I think they won't even need to invade, but who knows
>>493308450why haven't you stolen your cousin's land like you were supposed to?>>493310685I mean the way you have 3 characters with 6 units each. it looks much more balanced than 1 general plus 19 whatever.
can Yin Yin take Taiwan?

>>493316502Skaven and chinks are so close the association is natural. Cope

For anyone curious, this is what a green necrofex looks like.
>>493316528That's what allied recruitment is for.Nothing better than a sturdy front line of dwarf warriors and/or longbeards, more heavily armoured than your wimpy state troopers, and conveniently shaped for your gun lines to shoot over their heads.Similarly, There's no better companion to a line of elven archers and spearmen than a rocket battery or dwarvern cannon rather than a crappy bolt thrower.
>>493318535true that
What are the best options for a fully-mobile army? With no slow dead weight to worry about. I find Bretonnian cavalry doesn't have quite the defences to do that kind of thing.

what's the point of this map if we both deploy on the flat ground and no way to realistically deploy most of the army on the ridge
>>493316528Good idea, that will help deal with those undead monstrosities and orcs and demonsIt would be some kind of... alliance of sortsYou should ask the wood elves too, I'm sure they'll initially decline but they'll warm up in 2 years or so
I've been playing coast for 18 million years and I don't remember EVER seeing this banner.
>>493319218It's Noctilus' quest battle map, I thinkAnd no, I don't think the actual quest battle utilizes the high ground either
>>493319484Is there ever a reason to raze if you're not a chaosfag? Even the demons themselves want settlements
>>493319648If you know you can't hold it but you don't want the enemy recruiting from it either. I sent a stack around Lustria razing all the major lizard cities and it gimped their recruitment. Then recaptured them when the competition wasn't so fierce.
>>493319484Why do you like coast so much?
Helves look sick in pirate gold. >>493319814I like the adventure/biohorror hybrid theme and the same turn encampment. I also liek being able to raise dead. I also love tomboys and cheap, vanguard berserker infantry.

>>493321370Warhammer lore changes all the time and you can tell when someone first became a fan by what they consider to be cool and what they think is cringe and wokein 10 years your average warhammer fan will look at female space marines and age of sigmar as the peak of warhammer and think of tw:warhammer as cringe oldfag stuff that doesn't belong in the setting like dwarf wizards and half-eldar space marines are looked down upon now

good strat for dawi vs chorf?
Our hero fell in honorable melee combat with their lord but his heroic knights avenged him. I'll take it I guess.
>>493330738Snipe their artillery and you win the ranged battle. Copters or cannons will usually do itAfter that just shoot the most dangerous target
>>493330738arty, thoondabarges, quarrellers, irondrakes. You can outgun and outrange them. Choppers aren't as good a bet because their BVLLS will easily...bully them.
>>493330738Unironically despite the powercreep and how cracked Chorf artillery is, you can outgunpowder them
>>493331634Inb4 coomer responses but I think the chorf LH(i forgot his name) would be decentHe's already from a slaving society but isn't top dog, more like an overseer, so I think he would adjust to servitude relatively easilyAny of the other characters are either too treacherous, have too big egos to be subjugated, or are metaphysically dangerous to be near

>>493334674The lost tech
I still wish they'd improved naval battles instead of giving up on them entirely. They're such a major part of warfare.
>>493335006well there is naval warfare, protecting your coasts and stuff, you just fight it with armies instead of navies
>>493335006The problem is that they chose a terrible way to implement things like boarding in Rome 2 (i.e. no different than boarding in Empire and Shogun 2) and implemented at the same time as "all armies must have generals, so if you take out an enemy admiral then next turn they get a free top tier warship :^)".
>>493331634those bucks come pre-broken or what?
>>493330341>rip francegoodI fucking hate continentalshttps://youtu.be/_oRoVxMb0Nosimple as
>>493335225Yeah but posts like this always assumes that because CA was retarded before it's impossible for them to un-retard the implementation if they had kept working at it
I firmly believe that Bull Centaur lords for the Chorfs are too good an idea not to implement. We ARE getting them, the hobgoblin khan generic hero, the hobgobla bolt thrower, the siege giant and the kolossus giant robot from one of the Black Library books. It's certainly a safer bet than the insane belief of some ITT that the High or Dark Elves who are feature-complete will be getting a DLC!
>>493335685Trust me, CA has been retarded forr a long time. The history of TW is basically:>Shogun 1 and Medieval 1 are breakthroughs in RTT genre, but have a few small flaws>Rome 1 is a massive hit that corrects these flaws, but the AI is retarded, Rome is OP, civil war mechanics are a mess, and a lot of units are fantasy or ahistorical>Medieval 2 barely got made, most of the good things about it are almost accidental>Empire is a massive overreach and linemannii are fucking boring to fight with>Shogun 2 is a return to form, but effectively only one faction (because they'd have fucked up otherwise)>Rome 2 we all know about>Attila is a return to form>Warhammer 1 was a bit of a mess>Thrones of Britannia sucked>Warhammer 2 was a return to form>Three Kingdoms was a flop>Troy was a flop>Warhammer 3 was a bit of a mess>Pharaoh was a flopI wouldn't say "Total War was never good", but every single game has something you can criticize and hopefully that CA would learn from but they have the memory of a goldfish and not only are good mechanics lost technology but they keep making the same mistakes.
what sort of retarded faggot loser uses a term like "feature-complete" unironically?
>>493336407>shogun 2 is the most spearmanni of any title>is the best titlefantasoys, our response?
>>493336743I'd actually consider that a problem, as while Ashigaru should be spearmanni, what that meant was that cavalry wasn't that great which is ahistorical to the period.
>>493336802cavalry was ok, they definitely feel worse and less powerful in total warhammer. also that period was literally the one in which the power of nip cavalry was totally broken
>>493337243Broken by muskets, though. Not spears.

Just so you guys know when you're being mean to the Satrosa player this is who you're being mean to, because this is literally me. I'm embedded in her stack, following her always in hopes of enjoying a single downwind fart, tongue waggling in the air to catch her every errant bead of sweat. While you're melding with your gaming chair her pale, clammy cheeks are clamped tight around my face until I tenderly nibble every last dingleberry off her sweaty back hole. While you drown in rage I'm enjoying a cleansing stream of her dark orange urine running down by face and throat, filling my stomach with salt and brine. When she impales your legendary lord on her titanic futa cock I'm the one working her balls until her victim detonates in a thunderous cumplosion. And it's me lapping up her precious spilt seed as it mingles with their splattered blood, bottling it like rum to chug greedily, or to age and sip slowly in our twilight years together. I'd have shared it with you, if you'd only asked. I am content. Thriving. I ask nothing else from life. I know my place, and it's here, documenting us, our rapturous dance of love across all of time and creation.

>>493337721cheap general purpose army used for garrison duty. grom caught me in a lightning strike while right outside the city so the garrison cant help. its normally about half the size since its meant to fight with a garrison during heavy sieges but i increased it to a full stack since grom had multiple stacks hanging around the city
naval combat was never good and anyone who claims it was obviously only played a land focused campaign where you barely engaged with the mechanic. >hit end turn>no less than 6 shitstacks attack you>can't autoresolve any of them without taking unrealistic losses>you must fully wipe every one or else they will use massive free movement to sail past your blockade and bombard your ports>good luck doing this since the enemy will always deploy hugging the white line so they can instantly escape as soon as they take damage>literally every single turn and the only way to stop it is by capturing every single enemy port
>>493303738Since I've had to have Morathi murder her idiot son there's a lot of witch elves that presumably need to be rededicated to Slaanesh so maybe work that into your rat based spank fantasies you lil freaky boy/girli dont really know what witch elves deal is except not fucking cuz they love murder too much maybe thats not canon enough

I haven't used this tactic in a loooong time, because TW AI is babby tier now, but can you still siege a settlement in Warhammer and enter battle, but not to take the city and win initially, but kill off the defenders?Sieges have been an absolute joke since Rome 2 and the 5min battle days.

>>493337721Real life armies and formations.Some of us have been playing since rome 1, and some cryptkeeper larpers have even played medieval 1 and shogun 1, bless their decaying bones. I would model my legios after real ones, name them after historical ones, and place them in their respective territories. Now we have fantasy and everything is just hamfisted in, and nu-players don't care as long as it looks the part, but it's not hard to absolutely shit all over the AI using tried and true tricks of warfare.
>>493344450I fucking kneel

General Schwartzhelm's 3rd Grunburg Light Regiment of Foot has marched right into two stacks of Vampire Counts led by none other than Vlad von Carstein himself. Mired in low ground afore open-earth strip mines, it will be a race to claim and hold the heights to the left flank of the road before enemy reinforcements arrive in 4 minutes and 25 seconds...
>>493344731every dawi knows grobi bashing is part of the job. you don't even get hazard pay for grobi
Oh no no no no
>>493345210Are any Vampires considered strategical minds? All I ever see or read is that they raise hordes of dead as far as they eye can see and just wave attack. Everyone knows individuals like Abhorash are unparalleled tactically, but are they limited by the fodder they command or does a strategist exist who can work with even zombie hordes?
>>493345210>>493345589A seasoned commander, Vlad has his forces remain concealed in the treeline, nullifying the impact of the Helstorm companies attached to the 3rd... Something must be done to draw the foe out of the woods before the second stack of undead arrive.
>>493345572>exquisite vineyard>cult of the exquisite cadaver>some say, it's a really nice vineyard, stayed for the weekend gave it 5 stars on yelp>chance for events to trigger related to this location>related to this locationnone of this is mutually relevant if I want to nitpick, it's just a vineyard, what am I missing here?
>>493345759Traditional military thinking places great emphasis at occupying the center, so as to limit the enemy's potential for maneuver while maximizing one's own. With his artillery dismayed by tree cover, General Schwartzhelm defaults to the lessons that were drilled into him for years at the Altdorf Imperial General Staff. Handgunners are ordered to station themselves around the forwardmost strip mine, with Greatswords concealed in the lower terrain.
>>493346381With his undead host bolstered by the arrival of necromancer Johann von Zherden's skeleton and blood knight reserves, von Carstein has his herald sound the advance. The opening handgun volleys echo in the distance. General Schwartzhelm observes from a distant hilltop with a bodyguard of Empire Knights, waiting for an opportune moment to turn the enemy flank.
>>493344731>he doesn't know about the patriotic tradition of satchelchargemanii
>>493346798who falls for this? YOU WILL LOOK COOL SUICIDE CHARGING WITH A BOMB, WE SWEAR! fucking governments
>>493342042AI likes to push its artillery in so its only using ~66% of its full range from what I've noticed
>>493346767...but it his his right that gets turned instead! Undead cavalry with terrorgheist support come out of the trees, forcing him to launch a countercharge against exposed Helstorm rocket crews.
Stop bullying lizards! They didn't do nothing!
>>493346798I had a kumon tutor who went by the name "charlie" and told me one day that he fought in the war and used to blow up bridges, he told me he would tell me stories later, but ended being distracted by the Korean kids he would give extra "tutoring" to with his ruler lol. Many times I would see him just staring off with a 1kyd stare of sorts, but he never looked sad or broken about it, at times he looked like he was reminiscing over fond times.
crashed into the lizards flank with heartseekers hidden in the woods
>>493347227some men cry in a foxhole wishing they were homesome men make ear necklacesfunny world
>>493347003It's not so much that they're pushing the arty in, but the arty is having to keep pace with the rest of the formation because the AI normally won't separate it's force and leave the arty in the back.
>>493347085At least the center is holding. Zombie packs that come shambling out of the treeline are quelled with Imperial efficiency.Vlad, foreseeing the killzone that extends from the woods to the mining pit, has elected to take the high ground that Schwartzhelm abandoned, advancing behind defilade. If their push is left uncontested, they will sweep down on the unsuspecting 3rd and sweep them from left to right.
>>493347438The hills! They're coming over the hills!
>>493347347And then, decades later I met another soldier from GWOT for a different type of instruction, highly decorated, highly skilled, whom others tell stories of how cheery he would be in combat. He gives me the impression that he's a little sad he didn't die in a massive firefight.
>>493347640The attempt to conceal the Greatswords on low ground would prove to be Schwartzhelm's undoing. The planned maneuver of retiring the handgunner companies to a safe distance while the trap was sprung couldn't be pulled off in such chaotic conditions. Handgunners heading one way and greatswords heading the other way wound up obstructing each other.
hehschwartz
>>493347936The crack of gunshots grow sparse as increasing numbers of handgunners are forced to draw their sidearms for self-defense. Having abandoned the high ground to control the center, it is now the center that is collapsing.
>>493347673>ahhh, to die in battle
>>493348106what did you just say? say it again, i dare you
>>493348315I see your schwartz is as long as mine...
>>493249561I want mulan-style rocket mortars teams, with an ror that shoots actually colorful firework-style rockets.
The right flank is saved, the terrorgheist and blood knights slain, but the center has given way completely. Greatswords find themselves fighting as individual brigades in a churning sea of undead rather than as part of a larger strategy. Helstorm crews abandon their posts to flee.
>>493348451beware the man who wears two watches in a one watch game
>>493348498A short-lived defensive line is set up at the rear of the forward mining pit, but the front is moving too quickly. The general is nowhere to be found and the captains and lieutenants were last seen being eaten. The surviving handgunners can only manage a few desultory volleys before being noticed and run down.
>>493297182Doomseekers are situational.Giantseekers delete large and can at least trade sort of evenly with armored elite troops.
>>493348776The battle ends in a massacre. Though General Schwartzhelm and a handful of retainers and stragglers were able to flee, it will go down in history as a textbook example of Imperial gunnery being overwhelmed by numerically-superior undead.
>>493348889they need like 10 or 20 more models

>>493266948yeah cao cao after taking all that have advantage over everyone else
>>493347438best screenshotreally has the vibe of a swarm about to fuck some shit up
>>493348498>The battle is won, as the necromancer fell, so too did scores of undead legions, falling to piles at their own feet. Bone, pallid and rusted armor, clumps of rancid decaying flesh with bis of hair still left attached, all into small piles where they once stood as an unbreakable wall the corporal thought would surely stamp over him in time. He takes a seat upon one such settled mound of flesh and steel and bone and looks over the faded insignia upon the battered shield this once former footman of the Empire once carried by his side. The corporal thinks to himself, that could have been me under the control of the necromancer, bound to an unholy will to bring destruction and chaos to all he holds dear. He hears the horn of his seargant in the distance and stands to his feet once more. It is then when his eyes snap back to the shield and he realizes. As his eyes lock upon the faded insignia once more, they widen til the whites both under and above are clearly visible, his jaw slackens. In the corner of the faded and worn cover upon the battered wood, he spots a small emblem, a fleur as it was called, and he realizes it was no fallen brother of the Empire he battled, but a Bretonnian! He snaps to look westward and that's when his grip loosened upon his sword hilt. Cresting over the hill was a mass of undead at least four times as large as the one they had just survived. Bretonnia has already fallen. He understands now, no help will be coming, there will be no reinforcements, no relief from the nightmare he and his men have endured day and night against the undead armies that never tire or lose number. He spots his seargant who has now stopped bellowing that damned horn and is looking straight at him, yelling for him to form up against the new threat. He tightens his grip once more and a faint grin cracks at the corner of his mouth. If all the world has already fallen, then this depression of corpses shall be his new empire.

>>493352441Shogun 2 was amazing to play in it's prime. The jump in detail was like going from 2d sprites to low-poly 3d, doesn't seem like much, but for it's time it's huuuuge. The castles were awesome, the music was phenomenal, the voice acting was superb and hilarious, the art was real art. It even expanded into the next era so people could mix gunpowder against swords. We will never see the likes of it again from nu-CA.

>>493364830no, it's boring because 90% of it is just a bunch of forgettable low fantasy iron age humans and then the other 10% of it is some monsters and extremely tame magic, it's just a background cobbled together with minimal effort to watch conan the barbarian beat the shit out of people and occasionally jobthe grounded parts are more boring than real life and the fantasy parts are less interesting than actual mythologiesyou might as well just set something in the actual iron age

>>493366652it's better than most because it has guns. most fantasy settings are gay because they don't have guns. I am american and my fantasy is shooting dumb wizards in the face. settings without guns don't allow me to indulge in this fantasy so they are bad fantasy settings.

>>493303738Their contempt for their vile patron could only be eclipsed by their hatred for one another.Every night they would glare spitefully at each other from across the harem as their rodent host would giddily decide aloud which she-elf he would deign to "breed-fuck". There's no relief at another being chosen - scars from his claws are are the only way to prove their atonement to the Witch-Queen, to give hope that she may overlook whatever transgression sent them here. Such hope is faint, but, even as they cringe as the warlord chitters in sadistic glee, it still inspires a sense of bitter envy.Picture this: A sensual den of pillows and silk, candlelit and incense scented, and at the center, a mangy, brutish rat atop a raven haired beauty - the Druchii's paradise twisted into a fetid parody. His mate this evening is a sorceress. With but a thought, she could turn him to ash, but she can only choke back disgust as he thrusts into her. The others caress and kiss them both, whispering a chorus of licentious mockery. She glances idly at them, knowing well what game they're playing. They want her break from the shame, to drop her own facade, to wail in despair even as she lets the skaven fuck her like a base whore.She instead, with practiced discipline, forced a sultry smile. Focus on their hate, she thought. She arched her back and moaned as the vermin thrust faster, shuddering as a streak of cold, wet drool came down from his maw and dribbled across her breasts. His claws dug painfully into her as she felt him tense, his cock pulsing, his red eyes rolling back in ecstasy. She still focused on their hate, relishing it it, even as she arched her back and let loose a pained moan, worthy of a Druichii that would willingly let herself get fucked, get BRED, by a vermin.Hatred. She felt it, as she nearly dry heaved as he came, desecrating her forever. Their hatred. Her hatred. Hatred was the greatest gift they could give her - only it let her endure this hell.
>>493369253Jerk offAI turns don't last long enough for me to do anything other than recover libido and stay hardDuring my turn I'm playing the game so I start to get soft but I can finish my turn fast enough that it's never fully soft before AI turns take place againIt's a gooner thing, I simply combine both interests. I can keep going for literal hours, I've done it for an entire afternoon into eveningI autoresolve all fights until the end of the session when I fight one manually, it takes a while so I'll be completely soft by the time the battle ends. Then I take a page out of beastman anon's book and properly jerk off with the intent to cum not just to edgeThis always, ALWAYS gets massive loads out of me but dehydrates me really bad so I have to drink water throughout

>>493377624I don't want a victory condition on rome campaigns man I wanna paint the map red
love the deep red on those shields>>493377873>>493377774calm down man...
>>493372934Imagine just how you'd feel if you were the skaven warlord - you'd be returning from another victorious raid against the Bretonnians, scoring many slaves, and you'd be absolutely backed up from a month of being away from your prizes. For your entire celebratory feast, you'd be almost fully distracted from the usual poisoning of your by just how badly you need to nut in a tight, pale elven pussy.But when you go up there, one of the druichii sluts isn't even trying to put on airs, like the other. You are aware, of course, of their little facade - the fact they have to go to such ends to maintain some semblance of their typical elven arrogance even as you pump their womb with your yellowish spunk just makes it all better. The struggle in their eyes as they force themselves to swallow both their pride before they part their perfect lips and swallow your throbbing cock is like taking a hit off a warpstone pipe.This one, though, has something else in her eyes - an expression they have never borne before. Fear. You look, curious. Something is off with her posture - like she's trying to hide... you grab her and press your paw against her belly and you feel something that shouldn't be there. Something impossible. Something magnificent. You'd cackle, looking down at her vacant, horrified expression.The others look now, confused, and then, slowly, horrified. You're diamonds now. There was one thing maintaining all the elves' dignity - the fact they could at least pretend there was something your degenerate seed could not sully within them. Something that would forever be only for elven lovers to share between each other. And now that's gone - forever. At last, you'd start seeing their little, final shells crack. They couldn't hide it now. No more coy little whispers would come from them - they'd beg you to stop. They'd scream. They'd cry. But they'd still spread their pale thighs and give you their perfect elven pussies to fuck. To breed.
unfortunately rome 2 units dont fly around
>>493378802A real BLACKfur vermin filling that pale elven pussy with superior genes.
So, I decided to reinstall Attila since it's pretty fun and honestly my favorite historical non-gunpowder game...What faction should i go for? Standard campaign since i don't have charlemagne or last roman. Last time i already played Byzantines, so I'd rather not be a roman.
>>493378965go for slavs, the dlc is like 3-4$ on key sites I betyou have cozy expansion in the east if you keep good terms with attila
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>493378965There is no reason you should never not be playing WRE.
>>493379030Naw, my country's currency is fucked. I only even use steam because they have regional pricing.>>493379098Sorry, but i want to play something other than 'Defend the town with your shitty spears and scout cav unit', i already had plenty of that as ERE.
yoo...

>>493379742I'm thinking of checking out this 'ancient empires' mod.The medieval overhaul is blatantly unplayable and incomplete.
so these the high quality fantasy posts I've heard so much about?this general really goes down the drain whenever there aren't Histchads around...
>>493379801I don't recall any of this nonsense when people were playing Pharaoh. Really makes you think...
>>493379782I saw that mod but why even play attila if you want an ancient setting, attila is tailored to be dark and gloomy late empire etc
>>493376306legend has a real soft spot for majorkill to the point of playing games that majorkill covers on stream
>>493379503tities too big.
>>493379801>>493379867its just one guy spamming off cd
>>493379782Didn't that mod abandoned now? Someone picked it up and made the new mod called classical empires, never tried it though.
>>493378802>>493372474>>493303738So is that her canon fate now ?

yess a chokepoint battle, I rarely see these in rome 2, I mean you can start it in the chokepoints on the map as I did, but that rarely happens this reminds me of that legendary bridge battle in rome 1 put on time commanders
>>493379893Attila is just a better game than Rome II mechanically. If i could play Rome II but with Attila's gameplay i would.
Have you retards never heard about not feeding the troll?
Beastfags are unironically worse than ratfags currently..that's a fucking feat and a half
>>493380092No, the classical empires mod page said so.
The cuck poster is back huh? Wonder what triggered him this time.
>>493380281but beastmen can't recruit trolls, anon>>493380038the actual canon fate is probably just like, turned into an Evil Chair or some shit so yeah sure
>>493380281have jannies ever heard of doing their fucking jobs?what do we even pay them for?
>>493380369Aren't you thinking of Ancient Empires 2.0?
>>493380481>but beastmen can't recruit trolls, anonEven River Troll Hags worship black beastcock
>>493380117elephant will further trivialize this battle.
>>493380481>turned into an Evil Chair or some shit so yeah sureThat's Throt. I think Morathi just does nebulously painful and evil shit to your soul that we mere irl mortals cannot conceive because who the fuck knows what soul pain feels like.
>>493380420i still think its some kind of bit done in response to coom posts cuz it's zero effort and not at all titillating
>>493380420China getting insulted earlier in the thread probably sent him into a meltie.
Step up your game beastfags, you're falling behind
>>493380562can't get em easily that north that was a fun battle tho, what are the best archers in rome 2 anyways, is it rhodes archers? These germanic longbows I'm seeing seems super good
>>493380536too farreport to an isocube>>493380601i think we've all felt a little soul pain on the internet once
>>493380807Cretan or Syrian archers.

>>493380807The problem with longbow hunter is despite their 200 range, they don't have precision shot or quick reload, unlike gallic hunter but they only have 150 range.
>>493380979It's not rhodean archer, but slinger arguably the best slinger alongside the balearic and the germanic.

Just finished a Tamurkhan campaign.Other than the hero bloat and trying to tailor armies around them to get the most of their unique upgrades it's not bad. Mr T himself is absolute rapist that even dedicated anti-large can't deal with.He's still got the classic chaos problem that 90% of their heroes have in that thanks to his starting position in both RoC and IE he'll mostly just be fighting other chaos factions for a while tho.

You can put runes on grudge settler units right? Just the artilleryt ones are for regular units.Sometimes when i try to put runes on units, all of them gets grayed out both regular and grudge settler ones. Clicking 2 or 3 times on the name of the army sometimes solves the issue tho.

I love Astragoths voice acting. There's something about the flow that seems so much more natural than all the other characters speaking the made up languages.

>>493390217Because Beastmen voices are too deep, so deep that you probably couldn't understand them even if they were speaking english, Lizards are too serpentine, it makes it hard to hear "words" and all you can really hear is hissing.Basically Chorfs speak like normal people speaking a language you don't know whereas Beastmen and Lizardmen sound like gibberish.

>>493390775>saturday newsI doubt.
>>493389832nope, they were considered pharaohs of Egypt by the Egyptians and used Pharaohnic titles locally
>>493391151Doesn't matter, the chain was broken because the emperors themselves never considered themselves Pharaohs of Egypt, it was just any old province of the empire. Alexander, Ptolemy and his line considered themselves to be actual Pharaohs of Egypt.
>>493391294nta but your argument is pretty weak and retarded. they obviously were pharaohs
>>493391365What mod? Slso CK2 or 3?
>>493391365
>>493391294Vespasian literally went to Alexandria to be proclaimed pharaoh and explicitly compared his welcome to Alexander the Great's at the Oracle of Zeus-Ammon of the Siwa Oasis, Vespasian was proclaimed the son of the creator-deity Amun (Zeus-Ammon), in the style of the ancient pharaohs, and an incarnation of Serapis in the manner of the Ptolemies. As pharaonic precedent demanded, Vespasian demonstrated his divine election by the traditional methods of spitting on and trampling a blind and crippled man, thereby miraculously healing him.
The fuck? This city just traded hands to the frog (human) over in lustria. Is that soem faction mechanic of his? Either that or Tzeench trickery.

>>493391674>hiswuh?
>>493391540They literally did not call themselves Pharaohs except when in Egypt because the Egyptians only knew how to refer to rulers as Pharaoh. They personally did not consider themselves Pharaohs, Egypt was no different from any other province to them. It's like claiming that each Roman emperor was also Hegemon of Graecia because the Romans ruled over Greece, it's silly. Scholars delineate between the fall of the Ptolemies and Roman rule over Egypt for this exact reason, I'm not pulling this out of my ass.

>>493391927Yes, Vespasian called himself Pharaoh and took the rituals because in the civil war that erupted the east was his powerbase. You'll notice in that exact same article you cribbed from wikipedia, he was the first emperor since Augustus that even fucking deigned to visit Egypt.
It all comes back to you.I just can't escape the call of warpstone
>>493392429They weren't a Pharaoh because they didn't consider themselves personally to be Pharaohs and in the Roman system of laws and titles, which ruled Egypt, they were not Pharaohs. It's that fucking simple. I have no idea where you're getting this fucking vax nonsense from.
>>493392523so...he was pharaoh?
>>493392523>rules Egypt>calls himself pharaoh>is called pharaoh by the Egyptian priesthood and population >they're not pharaohs because... they just le aren't!!!do you also claim Charles III isn't king of Canada and Australia as well retard-kun?

>>493392706>they didn't consider themselves personally to be Pharaohsmust be why they kept building temples in Egypt where they wear Pharaohnic regalia and offer gifts to the traditional Egyptian gods then
>>493392706youre retarded and have some issues to work out. are you just a dumb shitskin angry that romans who barely gave a fuck ruled your dirt hole and all the dirt people treated them like gods?
>>493385091>Why not starts on the eastern faction like parthia?Because Parthians are all about cavalry, and as I said, I'm more of an archer fan...a foot archer fan... I wish there was a way to compare all the archer units in the game and see what is the best.The Cretans get a bonus to archer cost, sure, but are Cretan Archers the best? They don't have a skill bonus after all.
>>493392854Once again, we have actual sources from Rome itself...where the emperors actually ruled. They did not give a singular shit about what the fucking Egyptians called them, it was pomp circumstance. They did not legally consider themselves to be Pharaohs, they didn't consider it to be part of their title, that's not how their legal system worked. Trajan did not consider himself shahanshah when he captured Ctesiphon, it was simply a new Roman province. Roman emperors did not consider themselves Hegemon of Greece, it was just a province.
>>493393006I'm white. I have no fucking clue why you're turning this into some weird race thing, if I was a butthurt Egyptian I'd be claiming Alexander was an "illegitimate" Pharaoh. I'm simply talking about the intricacies of how Roman emperors viewed the province of Aegyptus and their legal titles vs how Alexander and the Ptolemies viewed their legal titles.
>>493393540literally by your logic if you creampie a girl and knock her up, youre not really the father as long as you dont think you are in your mind"""scholars"""
>>493394095That might be the dumbest attempt at a comparison I've ever seen on the internet.
>>493393368we have actually sources from Egypt and they actually used the title you absolute mongoloid, literally thousands of inscriptions statues and stone reliefs >b-but they didn't use the title outside Egypt doesn't fucking matter, by your retarded fucking logic Queen Victoria was only queen of the Britain, Ireland and India because she didn't use the other titles in London
another one autoresolve had me being stomped in
What if we made Rome: Total War, but, I know just wait, but, what if, and i'm just spitballing, but what if we made it Medieval??
>>493394214Queen Victoria did consider herself Empress of India, was granted that title by Parliament, and did use that title in London you fucking moron, that's exactly the point I was trying to fucking make.
luthor harkon will kill you irl
>>493393540you may be literary brain damaged>they aren't pharaohs because they didn't fit a ''canon'' i had in my head>>493394357yeah and?she was a empress of india, it was just the india was subordinated to anglo empire do you mean that they can't be pharaoh if they also a ''insert higher title'' and Egypt is subordinated to them?>>no you can't be father because you are grandfatherdumbo
>>493394353?there are medieval mods in rome 1 and rome 1 reconstruction mod in medieval 2(it suck, phalanx don't work)
>everything>not Everythingits over
>>493394357I didn't say she didn't use the title of Empress of India you illiterate fucking retard, learn to read before you replyher full title was "Her Majesty Victoria, by the Grace of God, of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland Queen, Defender of the Faith, Empress of India", so I guess the argument you're trying to make is she wasn't Queen of Canada, Australia and New Zealand, Malaysia, half of Africa and a hundred other places because it's not in her titleexcept she was, because she was a monarch ruling those places just like the Roman Emperors were Pharaohsyou're just a stupid fucking barely literate retard piece of shit who can't even read a 4chan post much less understand that when a monarch uses the title of pharaoh, builds statues of himself as a pharaoh, commissions massive temples with pictures of himself as pharaoh offering sacrifices to egyptian gods and is affirmed by the egyptian clergy as the rightful pharaoh, HE'S THE FUCKING PHARAOH
>>493394721They can't be called Pharaoh if in their own legal system, which reigned supreme over whatever the Egyptians called them, they did not consider themselves Pharaoh, it's that fucking simple. That's how legal systems work. To them, Egypt was a province. It was not another kingdom within a broader empire which granted two titles as Ireland and India did to Victoria, it was a province and the proper "ruler" of Egypt was the prefect that answered to the emperor in a whole legally defined bureaucracy.
>>493394352how did the battle play out ? the rome ai isn't the best at flanking and in those slow grindy mods that's usually what you have to do or is roman infantry just that strong and are the AR values wack ?

salve amicus, this is me and my senpai#totallydontconsidermyselfapharaoh
>>493395178Canada, Australia and New Zealand were never granted as titles to Victoria because they were colonies of England and always considered part of her basic title as ruler of the UK you dipshit. This is entirely an argument about legal systems and how they work, because legal systems are how borders and governments are actually defined. They're not fucking real, the value we give them makes them real. So yes, how the ROMANS conducted the legal system in their rulership of Egypt is what matters.>>493395375Egypt did not have a singular special status, there were multiple Imperial provinces ruled directly by the emperor when compared to older Republican era senatorial provinces.

>>493396181alright well i have a sociology degree and i declare you retarded. repeating shit you got told does not a valid argument make. first of all its literally an augment of semantics yet youre arguing like its basic math or something. do you have nothing in the world to feel special about that you have to act like some youtuber with a secret trve understanding of things? literally anyone with more than a few brain cells to rub together would consider someone acting in the capacity of X and being declared X by a legitimize source would consider that person X. do you think "pharaoh" is some real physical thing that the roman rulers didnt have in their pocket so it doesnt count? to the length anyone is declared anything, the roman rulers were pharaohs, just in different circumstance than the ones before (and the ones before in different circumstances than the ones before, etc)tell us if you took the vax or not
