>>521540070DONT DO IT KARL SHE WILL CONFEDERATE YOU
Not since the horrors of the Rome 2 has our general seen such despair. Almost two decades after Shogun founded the series, the general is fractured and broken. Three rival factions claim the Total War crown: Fantasyfags, Histfags and Chinks. An ever-shifting maze of alliances and treaties binds the other posters to one of these three ‘Vnderstanders’. Territorial ambitions and the lure of mappainting brings the armies of anons against one another in a seemingly endless tide of skirmish and battle.Among the most prosperous of the great games in these troubled times was Warhammer. Dev CA, through craft and guile, was able to keep himself neutral in the rivalries of the Vnderstander claimants. An island of peace in a sea of conflict, Warhammer drew wealth such as the general had never seen into its bump limit. Rich shills and powerful avatarfags flocked to the safety of the general. It grew even grander than before, but with its prosperity came the corruption of arrogance and hedonism and greed.The gods could not long abide the outrages of /twg/s populace. In the heavens, an ill star appeared, a great stone face that some priests warned was nothing less than the Voice of the Oldfags. They preached tidings of doom and repentance, but their sermons were ignored. An attitude of rebellious revelry gripped the general as the arrival grew ever nearer. The grand festival to celebrate the day of TWW3 release was a mockery of the apocalyptic prophecies. It was then that the Realms of Chaos campaign fell.
>Vanguard deploy units in back of the map to spawncamp enemy reinforcements >They have 1:20 seconds to walk ~400 feet to their positions>Shouldn't be a problem>Mop up tattered existing units>1:20 is up, reinforcements arrive>Pan to back of map>2/15 units are in position, the rest are jogging in figure eights or forming weird whirlpoolsFuck you CA
The splendour of /twg/ was obliterated in an instant. The stone face ploughed through the general, gouging a deep crater in the midst of the Coom Quarter. The impact, however, wrought ruin throughout. The wondrous palace of Dev CA was broken, the grand LegendofTotalWar shattered, the Turin blighted by a pall of ash. Fire and smoke decimated the playerbase but worse awaited the survivors. A malignant corruption that brought with it furfags and shitposters. The vile taint of a Flop.In the dataminded game, strange dlc-update remnants were discovered. The wise determined them to be fragments of cope that had smashed into /twg/. Strange energies emanated from these shards and at times the cope even appeared to glow with leak power. Warlocks and alchemists experimented with these ‘copestones’ and soon determined that their uncanny properties could work wonders. Copestone could heal the doomposters, cause a dead game to produce updates, rejuvenate the hopeless or even turn base shit to fun.Lust for copestone focused avaricious eyes upon /twg/. Tortanic hunters descended upon the general, vying with mutated horrors that claimed the ruins, crusading shills who sought to prevent the taint from spreading, and inhuman creatures staking their own claims. An endless pilgrimage of the greedy and ambitious, fighting and dying in a place now called ‘The General of the Damned’.

Warhammer is everybody being a butthurt that they're not an elf.Everything is the result of elf politicsAll wizards are elf derivativesAll gods are mimics elf pantheonThe goodest goods happen when elves feel generousThe baddest bads happen when elves feel badThe sexiest women are elvesThe strongest warriors are elvesEvery minute you spend not playing elves you're thinking>damn that was cool, but elves could probably do it betteroh sweet infantry my guy, ours are better at every tieroh sweet missiles my guy, our are better at every tieroh sweet monsters my guy, ours are better at every tierBasically get fucked if you're not an elf lmaoyou're just lucky we're buys trying to figure out who is going to own you. Just sit tight, we'll work it out soon.

>>521542092With Tristan the troubadour LL, Bretonnia rework and Bretonnia DLC.
it's really astounding how much sieges drag this game down.I don't think I've played a defensive siege that I can AR a single time. And offensive sieges are just a test in how much I can stomach playing in regular speed to systematically dismantle the or just accept insane losses and 2x speed through the entire thing.
>>521544193Ask google translate to spell it to you.
It was obvious in 6th that some of GW had a real hard on for sexy dark elves. Was there any love for female high elves at all in the art?
>>521544942Wrong pronunciation, it speaks church latin with soft Cs

>>521549989Fuck off elffag.
i decided to go east in my tamurkhan campaign this timei forget, besides the fire rain rocket and cannons, what else has flaming attacks from cathay? not that it's going to matter much
is this Manfred?
>activate dragon Emperor's wrath to fuck over enemies on the other side of the wall>end turn and it says they're taking attrition>next turn they're not only recovering but they've already gotten recovery as if it was one turn of recoveryI fucking hate this goddamn game.
>>521552161I'm convinced Manfred wouldn't be half as hated if he still had hair. If he still had hair and end times didn't happen he'd probably be more popular than Vlad.
>>521552161What does this person look like now?
>>521552180>he fell for the ai attrition meme
>>521552431Dead? He must be 60 by now.
>>521552632I meant the type of person that used to dress like this, not the literal neckbeard in the image.
>>521552180>AI gets 90% attrition reduction>Yean lets give the player an option that locks them into wasting resources on attrition for 8 turnslmao, as always the Warhammer team are a bunch on incompetent retards. You should have it set to the Control+Income one and never change it unless you really really need replenishment.
All they had to fucking do was allow multiple plagues on one army, That's all they had to do to make Nurgle fun-ish. Yet they didn't. Why?
>>521552980*now you're on the receiving end of multiple plagues at once*have fun!
>>521552980Because that shit is fucking aids when you aren't nurgle
>>521553261Just disable it for the AI like they did with some Tzeentch shit.
>>521553337lol
>>521552980>Nurgle becomes more fun>Every other faction becomes less funIt's the same deal with Skaven ambush attack. CA seems to have actually thought about this for once.
>>521552613>>521552835Wrath of the dragon emperor actually does really good damage, you just gotta time your attack right.What's stupid is the fact it tells you they're still taking attrition then over the end turn it stops and they get one turn of replenishment. It should show them getting replenishment on the turn the attrition stops. Instead it shows them taking attrition even if they're no longer taking it over the next end turn.
>>521553401refer to >>521553337
why isn't there a mod yet which adds mao zedong to grand cathay?maybe i'll do it when the EU gets absorbed by China for those sweet social credit points
>>521553674>EU gets absorbed by China for those sweet social credit pointsGod I wish. China hates muzzies.
>>521553476You're not wrong, but it only works in your territory. I'd much rather have the income boost to get my economy going and let me roll around with more armies. In general Cathay don't have trouble winning battles, they (Miao Ying really) have trouble dealing with the sheer number of enemies you early game.
Oh and the AI can't use Eshin's "Plunge Into Anarchy" either, so clearly CA have no problem disabling certain campaign mechanics for the AI only. So the "but it would be unfun for me in my 1000th modded Empire campaign on E/E"-argument isn't valid.
spoopy
>ai opens the gate>heh, bet you can't hit it now and if you manage to you can bug out and walk inside and we lock you in with us :)crazy this is still in the game
>>521554265That's fair. Guess it would make Nurgle even more facerolly but I guess that's what people want these days.
>>521553970Wrath of the dragon emperor's an ability. It does damage to all armies in the zones past the Bastion (the specific provinces right to the north to be specific)Honestly the biggest use outside of sudden attacks against really strong armies (like I had to do. I got the Bastion mod so I was facing down chaos dorf armies with T5 units, that shit wasn't going down), is if you stop the enemy from replenishing over the end turn as they're retreating.Then again I also got the IEE mod so they can retreat into the lands beyond the mountain and the attrition doesn't work there. Mod guy for IEE didn't bother to activate the ability for the new areas he opened up.
>>521554440Crazy that it worked fine in Rome 1 and Med 2 where if the gate was open you could just capture it.
>>521552835Before the Nurgle plague rework, that was one of the single most satisfying things in the game. Infecting an enemy army, watching them slowly withering from attrition even in their own territory, unable to recover. Going up to them a few turns later to put them out of their misery with ease. Damn that was cathartic.So of course they removed it
>>521554567Give me multiple plagues per army and some fun plagues to boot. 100% Speed and Strider for GUO, missile reflect for Plague Toads, +1000 mass for Nurglings. 80% wardsave for Harpies. -100 public order so you can instantly cause a revolt, instant building construction for 1 turn, +100 public order but -90% income, +30% income but -30 public order. All the current Plague effects so booooooring. CA put in zero effort into Nurgle, and that makes me sad.
>>521555480Just another thing that empiretards have taken from us.
>>521555713Plagues are 100% something that should be taken away from the AI. They're absolutely horrible to play against.
>>521545008Why does she have weird veins like that?
Tried Elspeth on Hard and Gorbad attacked me with 3 full armies on turn 10. Not even WAAAGH shit, 3 full armies. Back to playing on Normal, I guess.

>>521557883the pact is sealed
>>521558056None, it's the AI beta
>>521557708Every time I fight them as Cathay's caravans they absolutely shred everything in my army. I'm more scared of them than I am of the mournfang cav.
...why did I lose this? They're nowhere near the victory point, much less have captured it. I had them right where I wanted to to spam Comets on them, my whole army is still good on morale, and all of a sudden I just lose the battle? Why?
>>521558201Anti-player bias/potential I guess. I've never not seen Gorbad get flattened by Thorgrim within the first 20 turns.
keep this up and the ratfag will blow xer brains out
>>521558643NTA but I'm playing the beta too and Gorbad stomped Thorgrim before even 20.

>>521558839No idea, I wasn't paying attention to it and I just took this chance to close the game and end for today. I'll be replaying the battle because that was some bullshit, I had even finished off every other wing of Arbaal's army so he was only coming from one direction, which was the dream scenario.>>521558995Waldenhof.>>521559098VH/VH>>521559131Injected straight into my eyeballs.

Azhag where?
I just wanna invade the empire but these manlets sperged out and keep pestering me so now I'm stuck in the mountains chasing armies of shirtless gingers. Also I got no clue how those skellies got that many kills as I sent them in to die and was microing Vlad and Isabella
>>521560318can't u just gift zhufbar to ungrim and vassalize him

>>521558334
>>521558334>he recruited greatswords
>>521560778no....
>>521561235They're Carroburgs and they've been breaking face really hard all campaign long.
>>521561390Carroburgs are unbreakable so therefore you shouldn't have lost until they were all dead.
>>521561538Nah you can still lose if you click Concede Defeat.
>>521558334Did you run out the 60 min timer? You can remove that.
>>521561538if you capture the victory points and get enough tickets in a siege, unbreakable units are actually forced to route if they are on the losing sidedone this enough times with ikit vs. belegar within the tilea map to confirm
>>521561538You're correct which is part of the reason why I'm so confused about the defeat message suddenly popping out all of a sudden. Seriously my main army was just barely getting into the fight, I had mostly just outmaneuvered with the garrison + Reiksguard to get rid of stragglers.>>521561730Pretty sure I didn't because the battle didn't go for that long, but even then, Arbaal was atatcking, so the timer running out should have been victory for me.>>521561764It was a minor settlement, so only one victory point that actually gave tickets, and I had it on total lockdown. Not a single enemy in it.
>>521561883Check the last replay.
I fucking hate fighting chaos dwarves so goddamn much.perfectly example of a faction that's fun to use but terrible to fight and why the AI should be gimped on things like army abilities.
Siege battles should have 0 capture pointsIt should have a set amount of supplies, which is modified by the settlement's defensive structure (a T5 fort would give enough to build T3 towers almost everywhere)Towers and other buildings are built instantly during deployment and cannot be further modified or have more built once the battle has begunDefending army should be unbreakable and the battle isn't over until all of them are dead.
>>521562309>T3T4*
>>521562271Army abilities are so fucking annoying. Fight Delves in range of a Black Arc is just pure cancer, and typically just results in me trying to stall the battle for 3 minutes so I can dodge all the abilities.
>>521562649Honestly at this point, the black arks are fucking in the realm of not that bad. That's how much shit's power creeped.
What are these guys that carry the shrine?
>>521562309But we can't market that to the e-sports crowd.
>>521563619Mutants
>>521563619hard to say, cygors? chaos giants?i think these are guys are also recoloured for the undivided and monogod shrines too

>>521563619Remember when they had visible render cock and balls? The DLC team removed that after release.

>>521562309I feel like a more cinematic approach might be cool, not much moving around or barricading but fighting through corridors with towers (for the defenders)

I've never played Ogres before, are they fun? Who should I try first?
>>521570267Jade Vampires in the workshop
>>521569594you will have to rebuild it, but yeah
That autoresolve limiter in the workshop is great if any of you are addicted to autoresolving
>>521571219here's my limiter>would it be a fun fight?>yes -> fight battle>no -> AR
i wish i could autoresolve my life
>>521570532They are fun on open and offensive siege battles. Horrible on defense. Have very fun doomstacks and monstrous infantry. Vulnerable to ranged fire and getting surrounded, but they're fast so you should be setting up for flanks regardless of your army set-up.Campaign wise they are harder to Paint with but once you get your camps going, it goes a little faster. Camps have to be strategically placed but they're no longer a pain in the ass they once were pre-Faggot DLC.Basically besides initial finance issues, you're limited by a food mechanic too. The Faggot has completely different gameplay from others and basically goes around the world fighting the fights he wants. IMO, fun at first but about as deep as a puddle.
>>521569265more likeinsane estrogen power lmao
>>521571826Ah fair enough, maybe I'll try chorfs then. appreciate it
>>521570532YesGolfag.Golfag's a lot like changeling, however he's got a little less "linear" and a lot more lose-able.Greasus is fun, but he's a lot like Kairos or the Helves where you can manipulate things by throwing moneyI've not played new Skrag.

>>521572180Is this an ogre or a dwarf? What's the difference?They both smell like shit, are ugly as sin, and crawl around in the mountains like some kind of worm
>>521572180I think after playing them post changes and mass firings, CA stopped giving a shit with super balanced concepts and taking forever on patching. On the flip side, Kislev Orthodoxy and Ice Court mechanics are still a cluster fuck.
never done a khorne playthrough b4 should i play skarbrand or the new one the little guy whats he called
lol
>>521573707Skarbrand is the simplest, if not the easiest depending on your TW experience level. All the Khorne lords are hyper aggressive so requires good knowledge of game concepts to play correctly.
What are your go to early, mid and late game dwarf armies?
>>521573804blame turin
>>521574578Early - blasting charges, warriors and quarrelersMid - gyro copter spam, a cannon and some warriors to guard themLate - trollhammer irondrake and gyrocopter spam, unless facing Skaven then you need an all slayer army.
>>521574578quarrelersquarrelersone man doomstack
>>521573707Skarbrand for Southlands clusterfuck, was easier when Wurzag was thereArbaal for standard chaos funtimesSkulltaker for Lustriabowl.
What races feel complete to you? In terms of campaign mechanics and their roster mostly, but lord selection can be consideredHere are mine:DwarfsWarriors of ChaosWood ElvesKhorneNurgleThe EmpireBeastmen
I'm trying to win a campaign as each faction for the sake of learning them all and I just can't wrap my head around the wood elves.Its likely because I'm a map painter at heart but the spread out tall building style makes me eat shit every time a faction that can field more than 1&1/2 armies before turn 50.
>>521575995*every time a faction that can field more than 1&1/2 armies before turn 50 declares war on me.
>>521574578Early: 5 warriors, 4 blasting charge miners, and the rest the crossbowmen.mid/late: Pic Related
>>521571219I don't autoresolve. I manually fight almost all my battles but in exchange I don't play past turn 30.
>>521575787Welves IMO and maybe Dwarfs. Dwarfs could use Bugman as an LL or LH but I don't think they could add much more to Dwarfs.I think WoC could use some stuff from the Slaneesh DLC but not much.Beastmen for sure.
>>521575787All of them once this DLC is out. I'm looking forward to the two new titles to be announced.
>>521576972Welves could use an artillery (think Cygor Treeman) and a few of their end-times units.Beasties have a *few* missing units, namely the gougehorns and some marked units (centagors)
>>521577767>Welves could use an artilleryDisagree>BeastmenThey'll continue to eat good with Slaangors and maybe some more chaos DLC but they really don't need anything else.And if anyone says Dwarfs need the runic golems or shard dragons, know that they are a faggot who shouldn't be listened to at all.
>>521575787None until every continent looks like the Lustriabowl
>>521546876It'd be relevant if Nippon or Ind existed. But they don't.
>>521578091NGL, I just want to see a treeman throw a boulder at something.Plus welves I'd love to see some of the funni alt-wardancers (spear)
>>521578737I can see your reasoning, but I feel dedicated artillery units shouldn't be a Wood Elf thing. Much as Dwarfs shouldn't have cavalry or monsters, Welves shouldn't possess Artillery units. I also consider Beastmen as a faction that should be artillery free but the Cyrgor largely works for them fluff wise.
>>521577767I believe venris talked about adding a dryad trebuchet eventually. As in manned by dryads, not one that throws dryads.
>>521575787Empire won't feel complete without Todd. I'm not even a fanboy, just add him already.
>>521578737Just give a bound spell/ability to ancient treemen with a cool boulder throw animation
>>521579375That'd be acceptable.>>521579131Ew... not nearly funny enough
>>521577539there are a few more loose ends which need to be tied up first, then i can end my life on a good note
Shit
Should i play beta?
>>521580196Your life in game you mean?
>>521573707Arbaal has such a better campaign than any of the others it's not even close and he has the best voice acting in game too.
>>521581651why? just play sigma
whats longma
>>521581651yes, you should.
>>521581651Why not.
How is the beta going anons?
>>521583373Not going to bother playing an even easier version of an already easy game.
>>521581246well that sucked, they had like 6 menace below too
>>521583373Can't tell if anything actually changed yetPlaying on the old world map and ordertide is just so strong here no matter what happens
>>521585147>OrdertideYeah... chaos kinda just infights for 150 turns then stops expanding.
Does fatigue affect accuracy?

>>521576428>ZhufbarI wish more of the minors were playable. Less 'we're going to through Gelt into Cathay' bullshit and more just giving the other Elector Cunts, Elf Kingdoms, Dwarf Holds etc playability.
>>521593314mods are great for that.

>/twg/ thinks the game is too easy>reddit thinks the game is too easy>even many on the ca forums think the game is too easyYet they made it even easier with the beta. Who are they doing it for?

>>521595859Me I'm a turbomongo retard baby but I'm not playing the beta
>>521595920Hope you use the smart Throgg cheat to make him lore accurate.
>>521595975Last time I played SFO Throgg, modmakers didn't even have the tools to replace audio filesKids don't know how good they have it these days...
>>521595975>End Times Throgg
>>521595859Me and a ton of other people when they looked at past info. Legendary and mods are for the people who want it.
>>521595859silent majorityGame should be more customizable. Just let me adjust AI aggressiveness, anti player bias etc before game start.
>>521584861I like when Cathay/Empire soldiers do that HOO thing as the fight goes on

>>521598620???
>>521598679I can cast spells using my lord I don't need to be switching to all these different heroes to cast even more spells, all from the same magic pool

>>521598928nobody taught gobbos what a ladder is
>>521598928We need Sofia slav magic to fix Warhammer.
>>521598735I always recruit the chaos lord.
>>521599730Exalted Lords of Change got two new powerful skills with the latest SoC rework.
>>521598928Pointless, yes-yes.
>>521599730I recruited the pink blob because I heard it turns into a butterfly if you keep it around long enough
>>521598620Cultist is literally only for the mountHorror is useless, but sorcerer is good.
>>521601761Horror is for replenishment and some backup spells. Can be skipped but not totally useless.
>>521601761Cultist and Horror have summons though
>>521598620cultist for campaign movement, should have 1 in every armypink horror hero for replenishment, also should have 1 in every armyidk about the sorceror, i don't think scouting is very important but winds of magic battery is good for tzeentch, becomes more important if the lord is the melee chaos variant
>>521601934Ah, then yeah bring it along.However the sorcerer is GOD tier for armor
I am having fun with sieges whenever pathfinding doesn't break, which is rare but happens. When there's a corner, units will get confused and hug it, so you have to give like 4 orders before they get in a better spot where they can move straight through it. There's also issues with units on barricades, sometimes it's hard to do anything to them and the barricade because shit bugs out. Fix those two things, make tower/barricade placement more logical and I will be satisfied with a rework.
>>521602298All I really want is for the AI to have a gameplan like sallying out if they're all melee instead of letting me bombard them
>>521602436in my ikit campaign, i found the ai does sally out during certain siege battlesthis is mostly in areas where the battle map is technically a major settlement and even has the same layout but without the walls like in some norscan maps
I never thought we'd live to see a day where world leaders take example of Creative Assembly's behaviour in how to run a country, but I'm not sure incorporating daily pivots as your national policy is what you should do. CA is pivoting so hard, they don't even know what the races of their DLC are besides Slaanesh and it probably was developed for months by now, that's not an example to follow if you ask me
>>521603164Look, nobody understands tariffs better than me—believe me. My strategy, very simple: on and off, like a light switch. That keeps them guessing! One minute we’ve got tariffs, the next minute we don’t, and they don’t know what hit them. That’s how you keep the advantage. Cathay, the Empire and the Old World, Lustria, even Helebron —they don’t know if they’re coming or going. That’s called leverage, folks. That’s how you win. And we’re winning so much, you’re gonna be tired of winning. The world plays checkers—we’re playing 4D chess, and I’m the grandmaster! We will MAKE NAGGAROTH GREAT AGAIN! Thank you for your attention to this matter!
>>521603164Malekith always held all the cards. His tariffs would make Ulthuan great again but the Asur aren't ready for that discussion yet.
I hate rats.

>>521604986>Slave Market begins to collapseMaybe for the chorfs. Malekith doesn't trade slaves Naggaroth has it's own slaving industry. Asur will never understand what it means to have a on-site industrial base because they outsourced everything to the Empire.

>>521613995AAaaand Thorgrim lost silver road to Gorbad.I miss Thorgrim being alive past turns 20 turns.
Legend said you guys don't know how to use him.

Total War: Bluey is being announced this week
Bros how do I stop autoresolving battles?
>>521615590Use units that suck at AR
>>521615590play skaven
>>521615675But I like playing dwarfs...Who would you recommend?
>>521615590play a total war that doesnt tell you exactly what units will be lost
>>521615757Ah I see thanks. Which one has the most fun campaign?
>>521615757>the autoresolve faction
>>521615918ikit - weapon teamsthrot - monster spam or just buffing your slaves to crazy statseshin - intense microingqueek, tretch and skrolk are kind of more vanilla campaigns
>>521615918Ikit and its not even close. Your AR might work but your units take massive damage for it so you cant abuse it.Snikch is also fun and his AR is very bad despite the battles being easy as hell.
>>521616034Really? Compared to Empire, WoC, Chaos Dwarfs and regular Dwarfs?
Ikit it is!
>>521616196>b-b-b-b-b-b-but other factionsand?
>>521615590play Civ, you cant autoresolve any battles
>>521616447you called it THE autoresolve faction retard
>>521616447You will not autoresolve as Skaven nearly as often as those (popular) factions which means you get to play the actual game especially as Pestilens.
>chorfs trialer music release never
>>521616586waiting for the new patch.
>>521615779Slayers
>>521616746I said Civ, not Humankind 2
>>521616618Yup. Skaven have great units that get ton of kills in AR, but they have absolutely zero units that can TAKE any damage in AR. Doomwheels and Flayers get nuked, ogres get nuked, Abominations suck, heroes have low armor without tough trait and items, Sotrmvermin take at least 50% per AR too.
>>521616704neither did the Malekith trailer music
>>521616839I have 5 and 6 but I never could get in to them. I like the new one but it needs some fixing.
>>521616810Slayers are surprisingly good in AR I find in my current Ungrim campaign. Dwarf heroes are just super fucking good too. Slayers get metric ton of replenishment too so they will replenish instantly no matter what.
Why are weekend posters so much more boring that those that can be found here during the week?
>>521616932If you like Humankind 2 then you may as well try the first

>legend is hearing voices inside his headthat's it, he's officially /ourgoy/
>>521616995Humankind 2 is newer and better so I'll stick to that one.

ARENA SHOULD HAVE KILLED MP, MANY YEARS AGO
mortar war wagons are so good
>>521379804Thanks for that recommendation anon, this shit is great. Now I don't think I'll be able to go back to vanilla campaigns without at least this trio of mods, they really complete the game.
>>521593573Legendary, there wouldn't have been four ratstacks on normal.
"Elite" type factions seem WAY stronger than "Horde" type faction in this game
>>521618238yes
Ikit - which way?I always feel like Bretonnia is easy pickings but that will allow the actually dangerous factions to consolidateMaybe go diagonially up and break into the Empire? That could be fun
>>521621665Spend first few turns raiding yoru own lands for food. Destroy skaveblight before morghur pops his cancer stone and then resettle it at tier3-4.Then Either go for Morghur and Estalia (he WILL come for you sooner or later). Or Jump over mountains to abuse Fae. DONT bother with Tilea, 9/10 Aranessa will wipe them out.
>>521621665>>521622023And then progress towards either Woodelfs or rest of the bretonnia/undead/greenskins.Also keep an Eye on Eltharion since he sometimes decides he wants to kill rats instead of Grom and crosses the sea.*
>>521621665East so you can get better relations with the other rats for confederations
>>521622738>Skaven>ConfederateThats hilarious. You might as well be trying to confederate Kairos as Changeling.Rats are by default way too strong and far away to ever confederate as Ikit.
>hmm what if i replaced all my infantry frontliners with nuln ironsidesempire melee infantry is hilariously bad, damn
>>521623158Ironsides are basically a hybrid unit. Their melee stats are comparable with full melee empire troops, have okay armor and firepower out the ass with tear any enemy apart.
>>521622959Wrong also dumb
>>521623686>does not argue>petty insultsYour concession is accepted.
>>521623387Really one has to wonder why the fuck are state troops so bad in comparison.
>>521623158>>521623387>>521623849And yet they are used in every MP army... curious.
>>521622959>Rats are by default way too stronglol no AI skaven gets shit on every game
>>521624452they are also used in tabletop!
>>521624675they are bad in tabletop
skaven should have a special kind of confederation which is like a military alliance, but you have absolute control over the confederated skaven faction, but only for 20 or 30 turns, after which the confederation breaksthe timer resets to 0 every time you confederate a new skaven factiononce broken, all skaven relations receive a -200 penalty which deteriorates over time, faster if a war breaks out between them and a peace treaty is formedthis is to reflect that skaven are backstabbing and rarely manage to work together
>>521623158>what if i used good units instead of shit ones
What?
>>521623158I've never felt the desire or need to use the land ships. Are they actually surprisingly decent?
>>521624452>>521624675The Gigachad Army comp centric MP and Tabletop formatsThe retard mode elite spam campaign "player"
>>521625079yeah they're quite decent after i re-enabled them to be able to fire their cannons in melee
>>521625253>needing to cheatbuff LAND SHIPSlmao
>>521625253Most of the wagon units of the Empire just seemed a bit shitty to me, but then I don't really like using them, or the way they look especially when there are steam tanks.but i mostly play with the ww1 empire mod anyway
>>521625075Sarl is Azazel's vassal monkes right? Probably Azazel rekt his army and his vassal finished the job.
>>521625510>but i mostly play with the ww1 empire mod anywayi considered downloading it, but how big is the jank?

ask this faggot why luthor harkon is the best lord
>>521629567yes, actually gave quite a lengthy answer
>>521629093You thought you could just cyberbully ratbros for eternity without any consequences? Suffer this knowledge.

>>521629567Yes, even explored the idea in depth.

Been reading that Karl Franz short novel that was made to complement TW and I gotta say, I'm really, really surprised Marius Leitdorf hasn't been upgraded to LL yet.
>>521631445He's one of those Empire characters that wouldn't necessarily bring new units with him.He'd have to be part a CoC type DLC for Empire or Human factions.

>>521631237Skrolk has nurgle style sick stank but fused with rat piss
>>521631850Probably Arkhan or Settra, but all are less fun than WH2. Everyone around you got powercreep out of the ass, and you lost the high tier starting construct for everyone so your starting army is literally just skeletonmanii.
>>521632068>>521631850Arkhan was a ton of fun, the vamp count units really add something to him that the others lack
He is making bank with this ask me anything stream.
Incredibly satisfying. Thank God for these flying little midgets. Mangler squigs seem like a perfect counter to dwarf infantry, they knock them around like crazy and then explode, taking a bunch of expensive dwarfs with them.
>>521632330no shit
>>521631391No it's 8th edition Warhammer elves.
>>521632926Genuinely awful question to spend 20 bucks on.And it's obviously Ikit.
>Sotek can bear any questions 50 times better than LegendLegendbros...
>>521626008Some things like the massive airship break a bit, but it's pretty fun.You get some really broken options like pioneers who can build emplaced guns, or ones that can build bases that spawn units like in an RTS which is ridiculous in sieges.Sometimes the MGs don't work great on manual fire and shoot too high up if you're gun is depressed too much.
>>521626269>"Bretonnia having no female knights never made any sense to me"
>>521633984Thanks for the superchat
Sotek said CA and GW partnership is flourshing and it's not imposible we will get TW AOS and TW Old world in the future.
>>521634749Repantsu has a chance now
>>521633984Sotek spits shit out while Legend is a dry info guy. The former is good if you have ADHD and the latter is good if you like reading college textbooks.
>>521634810>sotek said
>>521633984When legend gets asked a question in his live streams he gets anoyed, sotek otoh loves anwsering questions. Dude is built different.
>>521634810>TW AOSNot like this WHF sisters... TW was suppose to be OUR thing
>>521634749He's right though, I've said so myself in this general before with that same argument. They worship a goddess, the second most influential (some say actually the most) person in bret society is a woman, and one of their greatest heroes was a knight woman. Them being like "get back 2 da kitchen" makes no fucking sense.It's not like it takes away from Repanse's specialness either since the fact she was a peasant was always more important than that she was a woman.
>>521634810An Old World campaign pack could be possible, pretty much all of the work is done alreadyThe only question is if they'd see enough demand to warrant it
>>521634810and there are still "people" who swear WH40k Total war isn't coming
>>521635049Alot of irl cultures worship goddesses but still don't allow female fighters.And it does take away from Repanse. Would Joan of Arc be as famous as she is now if France had thousands of other female warriors?
>>521635049>makes no senseits a medieval societyjust because joan of arc existed doesnt mean women fought in war, and the virgin mary existing doesnt stop them from hating women
>>521634810>TW AOSCA, if you read this comment, pass on it. I guarantee you the fanbase you've cultivated with TW Warhammer isn't the same one that will be playing AOS. Old World decent but it'll just feel like one of those "alternate period" DLCs from 3K.Seriously just skip to 40K if you're doing more Warhammer and run out of Fantasy.
Does Three Kingdoms play similar to Pharaoh Dynasties? With heirs and shit? As well as units having sync animations?
>>521635338NTA but I would argue yes she would be as famous as she is now.
am i in hades?
>>521635114it's just the one or two local furfag locked in an eternal cycle of seething and coping caused by the empire
Is Sotek a TWWH youtuber or a WH one?
>>521635438Speaking of sync animations, does Empire, Napoleon, and Thrones have it as well? I like seeing infantry actually fight instead of just poke 1 another til 1 guy just falls randomly.
>>521635346>>521635338The difference is that those cultures didn't have female goddesses that were particularly concerned with war matters, the Lady is quite literally their main source of military power and the whole basis of their martial system. Losing the blessing of the Lady and getting overrun by a horde of greenskins because you just literally couldn't stop being sexist in front of your defender is stupid, and it's doubly stupid to act like women being physically weaker would be a big factor when again, shit's fucking magic.
>>521635049You are arguments are the same as his.>sex discrimination make no sense in Bretonnia because there is one know female knight>Class discrimination make sense in Bretonnia despite 3 pesants are know to have being knighted
>>521634810Old World is a good idea, 95% of the content can be copy pasted and they can even make it into a Warhammer 4, with Nippon, Khuresh and whatever. AoS right now is simply not. I like how a lot of their models look, but this setting is not polished enough and quite a few of Warhammerfags feel resentment towards it despite the tabletop selling relatively well, mostly. You need like a decade before it is a good idea to dabble into an AoS Total War.
>>521635701It was one of the biggest criticisms of Empire when it came out and the pushback when Rome 2 came out had them change it a bit.
>>521635816the lady is more of a support than a warrior goddess, she gives the men blessings to fight longer and harder in her name
>>521635978Having units do animations when fighting was criticized? HUH?
>>521635861>>Class discrimination make sense in Bretonnia despite 3 pesants are know to have being knightedClass discrimination makes sense because nobility fucking hates the idea of the lower classes breaking into their private circles and blurring the lines or worse, giving ideas to the rest. You mention 3 peasants but forget two of them fucking got murdered by the nobles afterwards and only Repanse got to actually enjoy her newfound nobility because she was literally god's chosen and singhelhandedly turned the tides of a war.>>521636003...and? They'd still all have died without her, support or not.
>>521636110It was poorly implemented, negatively hurt unit mass and they would float around wildly when fighting in melee.Medieval 2 had some to an extent as well but it was quite rare.
>>521636163Everything you just said could also apply to the old boys not wanting girls in their knightly club as well, anon
>>521636163>They'd still all have died without heryes they might have, but a woman would have died fasterjoan of repantsu is the only exception to women being spellcasters and supporting the men fighting
>>521636334The old boys are already used to women running Bretonnia.

warmbloods were a mistake
>>521634810Yes to AOS, then we get Gryph-charger models that people can rip and turn into big tiddy anthro models and slip them into 40k when that releases
>>521636110https://youtu.be/u_ZvPndrgVAhttps://youtu.be/jkSWV1945DYCouple of examples of the stellar melee in those games.
>>521636568Greenskins are the whackiest with what they do for attacking but for me they also raise the craziest armies in the shortest amount of time. They're one of the few factions I'll capture or raze as soon as possible because how quickly they tend to come back, even if I really need the sack cash.
>>521635049Lady is a magic (not fighting) goddess, she actually influence the Bretonnian society to accept women in magical / counselor / religious seat of power (the Fay being actually above the king in authority).But how that justify sending females in combat ?
>>521633321Fuckin' told ya.
>>521633321lol he said the same about Ikit being Iron man.
>>521636930>But how that justify sending females in combat ?Because they want to?
>>521635438Someone answer me?
>>521637173why would they want to?
>>521636568I 'az 2 stax a gitz ta foight 'iz 1, da boyz gonna 'ave a roight fun time krumpin
>>521637351Why do the men want to?
>>521636914Absolutely agree. I left Skarsnick without a single settlement, with just his lord and one hero, wandering the mountains alone to die. He went encamp stance and somehow raised a full army plus Waagh in about five turns, all while taking attrition for not having a home settlement. I have no fucking idea how. Lesson learnt.
>>521637217I haven't played either of those so don't know.
>>521637217No it dosen't play like Pharaoh because the army composition mechanic is completely different. To have a complete stack in 3K you need 3 lords. As for the heir aspect it's basically identical. Combat animations are synced for lords not units it has a entire duel system between lords like Troy did and was removed from Pharaoh because of much hate for it.
>>521635049This whole argument is also forgetting the fact that prior to the retcon, it was already a part of the lore that at minimum once a year some knight would die in combat and then they'd find out it was actually a woman all along.You'd think after the 50th knight who turns out to be a woman, they'd just stop trying to forbid it, since it's not like their military power suffered for it and it's not like they can actually stop them anyway.

>>521563619David Goggins
>>521636163>Class discrimination makes sense because nobility fucking hates the idea of the lower classes breaking into their private circles and blurring the lines or worse, giving ideas to the rest. Sex discrimination makes sense because meb fucking hates the idea of the women breaking into their private circles and blurring the lines or worse, giving ideas to the rest. >You mention 3 peasants but forget two of them fucking got murdered by the nobles afterwards and only Repanse got to actually enjoy her newfound nobility because she was literally god's chosen and singhelhandedly turned the tides of a war.Literally pulling thing out of your ass here.The 3 named peasant are Repanse (we don't know her late fate), Huebald (nothing saying he was murdered by nobles), and a 3rd unknow one.
>>521638113Well there you go.Though Bret society frowns pretty hard on the plunder thing, even though it still happens with the less scrupulous knights.
>>521598620>>play zeench>>hero 1: cultist (melee)>>hero 2: iridescent horror (melee)>>hero 3: chaos sorcerer (melee)stop
>>521638205>Sex discrimination makes sense because meb fucking hates the idea of the women breaking into their private circles>>521636509They're already in their private circles. The knights obey the damsels, and the damsels are in every single court. Now you're just repeating yourself.
Fantasy should have stayed dead. It would not have been corrupted by Californian politics then

I won the battle when I tried it but it utterly wrecked several units of my (veteran with scrap ugrades) cavalry and infantry so badly that the units were destroyed and my autism will not allow this. Should I let my trolls bear the brunt of the squig charge or it hopeless?
>>521638962As far as I'm concerned, there's only frontline units and backline units, and Kislev is just making the backline ones a bit sturdier.

>>521639298Shut up, chud. Warhammer is for everyone.
What's the point of slingers?
>>521639774In historical TWs? Long range and highest firing speed makes them amazing at skirmisher duels, and as long as the enemy infantry isn't too heavily armored they can also rack up a lot of kills very quickly, making them ideal as an opener in a battle before the melee clash.In Warhammer? To occupy space. Unless you're playing Eshin, then they're just archers.
>>521639774What's the point of you?
>>521639774In warhammer theyre ranged meat shields
>>521639774Range and ammo count are good. Can't remember if they get AP either.They saved me in sieges a lot in EB by firing into the backs of infantry on the walls or hurling from guard mode.
>>521632068>but all are less fun than WH2Khalida got a lot better, early two turns have small trap, but now you can at least deal with lizards by the time they arriveKhatep is better too, he already got pretty good in wh2 after dwarfs were added to north, but wh3 made it even better with a lot of natural allies and easy to get books
>>521640530>live shot of Clan esshin campaign
>>521640530It's him
>>521639097soopa squigs and bloated corpses don't do much to single entities/monsters. Trolls can soak it up pretty easily with no real damage
>>521637351Because they have to.Excepted the blessed ones, human females make very shitty fighters. I wish feminists wouldn't try their damn best to remove that (they already feminized Cathay).On top of that, replace half the bretonnian males fighters with females and you get a birth rate crisis, which would be absolutely devastating in a time of war in a medieval period.

There some here who will unironically call this cheating.
>>521643348total war streamlines artillery massivelyyou need forever to set them up with proper ranges given by scouts and then when you do, you immediatley halt any infantry advance because when everything starts exploding for no reason, thats scarier than seeing a wall of horses running at youand a wall of horses running at you is terrifying if your unit isnt drilled to properly combat cavalry charges
>>521643692Third party alterations to the games' code is by its very definition a cheat, cheater.
TCA are worse than Jews.Not only do they delay promised shit for ages, they can't even give us the reveal of the other factions who everyone is greatly curious about and gives only Slaanesh who everyone and their mothers knew was coming. Seriously they just hate their community and enjoy teasing. They will announce TW:AOS to further shit and piss on the goycattle that buy their games.
What is even the point of Khatep seriously every other TK has a niche what the fuck is his?

What went wrong with this game? How do you fuck up a setting with Vikings?
>>521643371I love Khalida, how I wish her campaign wasn't like shoving burning coals under your fingernails.
>>521644303no one actually likes historical games

>>521644237Why would the Fay or Lilleath care about human women ??? The few ones with magic abilities she take them in her realm to indoctrinate them and turn them in Damsel but all the other ?
>>521643994He was supposed to be about the Nehekhara stuff and Hierotitans with Arkhan about Chaff and Scorpions, Settra about Tomb Guards, Sphinx and Chariots and Khalida is about their cavalry and snakes. The problem is that the Nehekharan units are that gay limbo where they're a transitionary unit, you only use them because they're better than spearmen but you replace them with Tomb Guards asap, some argue the Nehekharan infantry are actually worse than regular Skeleton units due to being limited in number and lacking in tankiness due to no shield, TK infantry is supposed to hold, not kill and the Nehekharan infantry are too killy and not survivable enough.All the Tomb Kings are far less fun now that they all lose their SEM units in their starting army.
Is getting the DLC for Troy worth it or should I just stick with Pharaoh Dynasties?
>>521644303Couldn't block armies so it was annoying to try and run them down and since all of your minor settlements had no garrisons all it would take it is a 1 unit army to take 10 settlements if you couldn't react in time.
>>521644678The only thing Troy has over Dynasties is Amazons but there's a mod that ports Amazons into Dynasties so you're only playing Troy for the Greek Mythology stuff otherwise Pharaoh is superior in every way.
>>521644237Yeah this is called logistic
>undiscovered faction has so many armies the game freezes>have already discovered thorgrim, franz, bretonnia, and helvesI don't know who is on 10 in the turn order, but I do fear discovering them
>>521644303>tiny setting of shieldwall vs shiedlwallit's just worse Attila
>>521645149The black arks are coming.
>>521645149Sounds like whoever won Cathay? Or maybe whoever won Lustria. But i'd bet on it being Malekith or Morathi personally.
>>521645149i've noticed the game likes to hang on boris and goldtooth for me
>>521645149either dark elves or ogres, spamming either black arcs or camps
It's getting worse.
>>521644619>Why would the Fay or Lilleath care about human women ???Dunno, ask Lileath when she came down from the heavens and specifically said Repanse was his favorite.
How are they going to fix Slaanesh? Slaanesh is the weakest of the Chaos gods so far and its by a wide margin
Reminder to use this mod https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2907466537It turns Beastmen from useless jobbers you won't ever see into actual menace. Third actual threat next to Vampires and Festus in Imperial campaign. Admittely I buff all my nearby threats like Khazrak, Taurox, Vlad, minor Sylvania vampires, Festus, Kemmler, Red Duke, Doomlord, various greenskins etc with Unnatural Selection as well, but without this mod Selection can't fix Beastmen anyway.
>>521645149This already happened once before, it's usually the dark elves because they start spamming black arks and get so many units on the field(sea) that it crashes the game.Much like this game interrupting your own orders because the AI does 100000 clicks a second and they all take precedence over yours.

Did Thrones of Britannia have kill animations? I can't remember.
>>521646571It's five hours long...
>>521646810Med 2 had kill animations
>>521646950Yes but someone also said they removed many animations after Empire because people complained. I know Shogun 2, Rome 2, Attila, and Pharaoh has it for infantry but I'm trying to figure out if Thrones had it.
I hope they do something with Malus in the future guy has like 4 dudes with him and is somehow able to take down like 200 beastmen with weird tactics and shit
>>521644303I heard that game had very cool siege maps
>>521646318He does look cool but I can't help but think of that cursed "double knee" image of him whenever I see him
>>521646318
>>521647292Here's a good question:Out of every Total War game combined, what had by far the best siege map and what had by far the worst siege map?
It was a fun stream.M an knows his lore.
>>521647469>Out of every Total War game combined, what had by far the best siege map and what had by far the worst siege map?tbhwy I've only played Rome 2, and Warhammer 1 & 2.Warhammer battle maps are a major disappointment after playing Rome 2.
>>521647469Medieval 2 had the best siegessoigun2 the worst
>>521647753>knows his lore.Then why hasnt he requested Gotrek anf Felix for Khalida from CA?
>>521647469As an average I find 3K's siege maps to be the best, but if you're asking what has the best single siege map I think it's Constantinople in Attila. Worst is either Warhammer 1 or Pharaoh, neither are really sieges, though in Pharaoh's case it's mostly because siege weapons aren't a thing
wtf the fire at will bug still isnt fixed?! How the fuck am i supposed to play Druchii?
>>521645765>Lileath>when she>his favorite
>>521647469ToB and attila are considered to be the best, warhammer 1 & 2 are just bad.
>>521646004Kairos looks neat but damn do I hate the stupid tongue with eyes sticking out of his head. Someone at GW/CA is obsessed with tongues and I don't know why.
>>521647890>Medieval 2 had the best siegesthat's atillaMaybe 3k, but I loved camp battles more there
>>521648137ZAMN!!!
>>521648110It is fixed tho. Never had problem with Kislev.
>>521647469Rome 2 and Attila had fantastic siege maps
>>521646810no it didnt
>>521647140It has some yeah. The later games have had some improvement believe it or not. It's not quite as bad as taking 5 minutes to kill a single militiaman anymore (just lords lol) because he has only one attack slot like Kenshi or setting up a perfect flank, charging and then nothing happening except people just sliding around. The mix of having some attacks just be a slash + a reaction rather than every unit duelling each other 1v1, until deciding to target the next guy 10 metres away for now reason really helped. It's not perfect though, I didn't mind how it was even in Medieval 2 with maybe just some quality of life upgrades.
>>521648146sieges in 3K are all the same for me.>get fire arrows>set fire to towers>destroy a couple of walls with arty>approach with archers>kill as much as I can with them>once I've run out of arrows storm the city>winSometimes I would win before storming the city, or I would save arrows for stronger units and deal with green chaf with my two handed teal swordsmen, but in general it felt pretty repetitive.
>>521648298my darkshards arent firing they arent showing obstructed maybe its just a druchii issue? I was playing Ogres and my leadbelchers were firing just fine
>>521648469>>521648530I might have been confused with a mod that adds them to Thrones.
>>521648110>How the fuck am i supposed to play Druchii?Play as Har Ganeth and start witch elfmaxxing
>>521648658Thats literally every single siege in every total war game besides maybe the old OLD ones like medieval 1 and shogun 1
>>521647469>>521647890Empire had some of the worst because just destroying the walls would cause the enemy ai to glitch and bobbing up and down trying to walk where the old walls were.But desu I hate them in FOTS as well because you can never get your fucking units to shoot UP at the walls, and cannons get blocked too easily.
is it going to be hard?
>>521648980nope cavalry in sieges are a joke they'll charge you get stuck and just eat shit
>>521648980Playing as vlad? It's not that difficult.
>>521648980That depends. show me your army.
>>521645765Again, the Lady using female human to her magical/blessing shenanigan is not news.It doesn't imply anything about Bretonnian society as a whole.
>>521649138which is the better army to take to the fight? this one?
>>521539457>Miao Ying has a fat ass just like her VAVERY based. i am now going to masturbate to pictures of Rae's fat little bum
>>521649483or this one?
TWW3 sieges were at their best when you could do them in 5 minutes by rushing points with heroes. Was that good game design? No, but it was over quick.
>>521649483this one would be better for the cav + flying units but i dont remember if those generals give or have mag attacks for the wraiths
>>521649483>>521649729complain on reddit that no undead should be maining garrions and collect upvotes
>>521649894i hate maining garrions
>>521649483>>521649729You need more archers. I think Karl's army has the edge because it has a fire mage, and that upsets the fact that the other army has one extra archer. As long as you have the fire head spell at least, otherwise I would go for the first army.

>>521651809Who ever said that? I said that they depend on women, not that they don't fight. You're just making up entirely new arguments that you'll actually be able to counter instead of the ones that are actually on the table, aren't you?

>>521652481It's a fact that gapes your prolapsed ass,you have no argument,you don't care about setting,you're just intent on shilling women cuz you're loser that can't lose weight and won't leave the dog alone
>>521652930spartman hoplites from r1
>>521635049This isn't about discrimination.Majority of grail knigths are men because the majority of players of TOW and other associated things are men.Tabletop gaming is a male space and thus the majority of characters are men with maybe exceptions to fanservice related things. Men deserve to have said spaces, as women themselves admit that having spaces such as this is important and valid.So cope, seethe, and get the fuck out.
>>521653000Damn... you're just so right... I guess I'll go tell Games Workshop that they're wrong about the lore and that they should be seething about it... and I guess Sotek should revoke his loremaster license too because you just owned him so hard...
>>521652930For a unit to be the most powerful in Total War, it would need to be so amazing, it'd actually be yarimazing. I don't think such a unit exists, which is a shamefur dispray from CA. I think the most powerful even after all nerfs is the Thunderbarge because many factions just can't really do shit about them, or if the barge is cheating probably Great Unclean One with all the techs, the only weakness is ranged and you can just boil them and artillery away, he will beat anything else with the help of his spells
>>521653365Look at those virgins incels riding horses while that beautiful KWEEN is taking flight on a majestic pegasus.
outschemed
I'm playing Khorne, how do I into science? I want more research points.
>>521653119Games Workshop, like all good capitalist enterprises, doesn't believe in safe spaces because every product should be catered to the broadest possible consumer base. Try going to China, they might be more receptive to your philosophy.
>>521653365They should stop hiring horrible cucked writers and fatfaggot of scalies should kill himself
>>521653365all the female pegasus riders except for one get killed in hilariously graphic ways, a fate that none of the male characters suffer in this novel btw. i have no stake in your argument, i just like pointing this out for the ryona/gurobros
>>521652141>>521651625They depend on women for magic.>>521653365No one is saying GW can't do whatever they want to their setting (even including Muscle car to Bretonnia if they want) or Sotek can't like it.The whole point was Sotek's "it never made sense because that 1 Repanse and goddess".
>>521653958>except for oneBut did she go on to marry a particularly big knight in blue armor with an axe?
>>521653792I don't frankly care what Games Workshop thinksJust like fem custodes their products that attempts to ruin the male space that is tabletop will simply be ignored until it flops. That easy really.The really issue is the activists that think they can force it on the space through bullying, harassment and misandry. Also known as feminists.
>>521654074no she gets with a disabled (deaf) nobleman swordsman who was denied knighthood because of his disability but she doesn't care
>>521654113>orce it on the space through bullying, harassment and misandry.Only one side in this argument has been hurling insults and harrassing.>>521652224>>521651809
>>521654272there's life outside this thread retard
>>521654206>(deaf) nobleman swordsman who was denied knighthoodSo is he, like, a non-knight noble? Or did he go all estalian diestro mode? Didn't even know that was a thing in Bretonnia.That's pretty cute though.
>>521654443>retardOk feminist.
>>521654653
>>521654469yeah he's just a nobleman. i guess he would have stayed at court but he actually basically ran away from home to go on the expedition in the book because he wants to prove himself as a warrior. even though he was never knighted he still trained with the sword and learned to ride against his father's wishes.
>>521654734>oldnow you're being ageist, the term is "seasoned"
>>521654206This is how said disabled nobleman fights
>>521654272I never said the people trying to destroy the male space that is tabletop gaming are hurling insults (they do sometimes, but that's beside the point)They are bullies, harassers and misandrists however. That much is obvious to anyone that isn't caught up in ideology.I don't understand regardless. There's plenty of female spaces. Why not go enjoy those hobbies, if tabletop and its associated things are too male for you? Could it be you simply cannot permit men and boys to have a space to be themselves? No, couldn't be that right?
>>521655623So are you gonna go tell Games Workshop that they shouldn't be able to affect their own product that they're trying to market in ways they feel will produce more revenue because it might hurt your feelings?
>>521654847Yeah, I'm seasoned....
>>521655808Yes.Same way the people have appealed to emotions and feelings to force their points throughEmotions and feelings are valid arguments in this situation, as the other side are the ones that brought it up first.Let me repeat this again.Tabletop gaming, and it's associated things like Total War Warhammer, are a male space. Women are welcome but they are not to alter or change how to space works or the face it's a a place where men and boys can be themselves. You will cope with this because you yourself created a society where this is a valid argument to make. Games Workshop with cope with this or simply make a decent profit again (and they are coping, see what happened to femcustodes)
I've never actually played Daemons of chaos and when I've played stuff like Tamuekhan I never bother with them, which of the greater daemons (unit) are worth it?I can see Bloodthirsters being good, and GUOs potentially, but not Keepers of Secrets or Lords of Change, as they kind of fill the same niche as most of their faction.Can I get a QRD on each?
>>521656202Again.Try China.
>>521655084>casts lesser restoration
>>521656341Try my dick in your mouth
>>521656334lords of change > POWERGAP > GUO > BT >>> KoSKeepers of secrets are too damn squishy.
>>521656341No thanks. It's working fine now. GW is already realizing where the money is. And you will NEVER have female space marines.
>>521656782Right back to harrassment, eh feminist?
>>521656202dont worry whatever space you hang out in will drive the girls away promptly
>>521655084>shove a stick into a wheel to jam it>kick him over
>>521656835I never stopped faggot
>>521656334Bloodbitches are the strongest in melee, and they can fly which makes them even better. I would say they're the bests.GUOs are fat, thick pieces of literal shit that are hard as fuck to kill because they can soak a lot of damage, but are slow as fuck so you can't get all that much value out of them. They're like giants in a way, but with a mortis mechanic and other tricks up their filthy sleeves.Keepers are fast as fuck, but they break easily. I think they work best on the hands of someone who knows what they're doing.LoC are the weakest at melee, but at least they can fly and have a shield. They also have bound spells which is useful sometimes, but so do the other greater daemons with the only exception being the bloodthirsters.I would say Blood>keepers>GUO=LoC
>>521655808you mean like beached whales of feminism do?
>>521656802>>521657030>Those Lord of Change placementsTzeentch you bastard
>>521656831>GW is already realizing where the money is.Not with chuds lol, they already surrendered all their life savings to Malekith
>>521657440t.top BLM donator
>>521657201It's not that they're terrible or anything, it's just that you don't really need a caster/monster hybrid when you already have a metric fuckton of magicThey work perfectly fine and I like taking a few for a thematic army but if you need a proper monster you have a bunch of good options alreadySame goes for GUO/KoS I guess but those guys can also take a beating/give a hard dicking
>>521544598>No global recruitmentBlack arks are way more powerful than global recruitment could ever be

>>521652141>I said that they depend on womenGuess what, women also depend on them. Just like.... every fucking society ! Wow shocking !
Did you guys knew that women are like really fucking important for making new humans? And yet they're treated like shit despite men depending on them for something so vital?
>>521556759Bad luckBut also a lot of schematics, unironically fall back to your forts and defend themAlso the state troops the bordermen is insane
>>521544598You're cringe
>>521544598>cringe aestheticTHE AESTHETICS ARE LETHAL.
>>521658415>not sending women to war is treating them like shitt. brainlet

>>521658415Did you redditors know that men are like really fucking important for making new humans? And yet they're treated like shit despite women depending on them for everything?
>>521658415>stop treating women like shit, send them to death instead
>>52157192380% of your early game fun will come from caravansSend them crazy placesThe most kino pairing>Maneater pistols with bussies/infernal glaivesDwarf gun lines essentially fire by rank since the back gun line tends to aim up(since they aim center of mass) and maneater pistols shoot over since they're so bigYou'll have the most insane odds and still come out swinging
>>521574578>Dwarf miners with charges to hold the center lineDwarf warriors to hold the center-sides so they can close in if the center collapsesThe new slayer pirates as flank guards (their guns hit fucking hard)The rest is whatever dorfs do to be the iconic bullshit they're known for beingIrondrakes might be the most frustrating thing to kill in the entire game unless you brought guns

Looks like I got here just in time, Juan was about to get rekt.
>>521661524They need to figure out a way to display >20 cardsThat shit is unnearable
>>521662194no they shouldnt, battles should be limited to and balanced around 20 units per faction in the battle
>>521662505I mean they areBut that said thats no reason to display >20 cards in the way theyre displayed
>it's another episode of units that have like 20 less speed catch up to your skirmish cav because of bad pathfindingI dunno why I bother even recruit this worthless piece of shit unit type. It always ends the same way.
>>521662671Honestly same. Kiting in general just never ever works for me.
ONLY I SCORE!
How do I into Oxyotl? What army comp should I go for? Should I try to teleport into every single battle the X-Com system gives me, of prioritize capturing Antarctica?
>>521664542Just pick what you like. On Oxy you want chameleon skinks.
>>521664542I always prioritize X-ComHonestly wish I wasn't even forced to keep Antarctica and could just leave it.
>>521665541X-Com needs a base, man.
Why can't I overwrite existing saves anymore? Is this some new bug or feature? Never had stupid shit like this before. It just keep creating new saves of this same name endlessly. Annoying as hell
Is it worth it to dowload the beta ?
>>521665965only if you want to play it
>>521646004>Nooooo>Yeeeeeeeees>Daaammiiiit>Or noooooot
>>521665623Yeah but Antartica's pretty bad.
>>521658415For being important at making new humans. They really want to do literally anything else
>>521666304The beta or the game ? I'm doing a Khazrak campaign right now.
the Wanging of the Chays
HOLY, now we are upgrading some settlements
I am Franz
>>521668328hi franz
Having bretonnian women fight and be knights doesn't make sense. To make things realistically, the ugly ones should be incompetent officers and other high ranking positions. Meanwhile the good looking ones flee to other countries like the empire to whore themselves out while thier fathers and brothers die.For realism of course
...we had NAP?
what started the incel melty
>>521668612Can you imagine if the helves court intrigue stuff was actually good, you could scheme to make your allies break your non aggression pact so you don't get a penalty for declaring war next turn on them.
>Come to thread to campaignpost>/pol/cel meltdownWell there's always tomorrow if this freak eats a ban
>>521669616Trannies, my lord.
>>521669616Sotek was streaming and said he agreed with Games Workshop changing bretonnians to not being against women knights anymore, because Bretonnia is already pretty much female-dominated so it doesn't make much sense.
>>521669920Female knights are cute :)
>>521668612Pretty sure vlad always starts with an NAP with karl
>>521669805You don't campaignpost liar
>>521669920Wow, what's next? Is GW going to change it so Bretonnian Lords are kind and generous to their peasants too?
>>521670271Yes I do, it's the lifeblood of /twg/
HOLYH FUCKOXYOTL IS A FUCKING LIGGERI hate the Kairos campaign so fucking much, I've lost it like three times to that FUCKING ligger.
>>521670367No you don't. You wouldn't let /pol/shit stop you.
>>521544598By Kaine, what a faggot
>>521670473You have teleport ambush use your heads you dumb bird.
>>521670473Oh noes. Racism. I guess I'm explicitly forbidden from campaignposting now. Oh well better add to the shit pile.
>>521670328Next logical step is allowing male Dasmel and Prophetess :)
>>521670018Ye
>>521671219Questing knight looks like she wants to murder cathayan animals.
>>521670328That's already the case in a lot of dukedoms. It's always either>The lord is a KotR and is a fucking asshole.>The lord is a grail knight and is genuinely a nice and charitable lord to his peasants, but he's fucking off all the time to fight evil and leaves the absolute worst constables in charge.>It's Louen/Alberic/Folcard and then the peasants genuinely have a pretty nice life (when they're not in the path of some greenskins/norscan/beastman raider before the knights get there).
>>521671605My provinces have high public order so they have to live happy lives
>>521670871Well I was about to but I turned off my PC and got into bed before I could reconsider
>>521671423>I didst hear damsels were being held prisoner by a mighty dragon>I cometh to slay zee dragon
>>521669920How are incels a thing? Like how do you hate women when you were birthed by one?
>>521671793EXCUSES.>>521671861Oh that's easy. You just have to have a total bitch of a mother.
>>521671187And then trans knights. And knights in wheelchair. And knights from other races, because everyone should be accepted right
>>521672735>And knights in wheelchair.We already have a brave Scottish knight like that, who wages war against TCAL's injustices
>>521671786No they don't, it just means they're all too malnourished and scared to riot, low public order in Bretonnian cities means you aren't being cruel(bretonnian) enough.
>>521672735>trans knights.We call them Empire knights.
When should I ever send my general unit to go fight? The ones with bodyguard units.
>>521673968Your general is a unit not unlike any other with strengths, weaknessess, and an ideal role for creating combat. Read the fucking card.
>>521646571Oh god he's including EVERY character from Warhammer, even stuff like Brunner. And while chatting about other stuff in between. No wonder this shit lasts for 5 hours.
>>521671861because my mother is the only nice woman i know, she is the exception not the rule
Its a miracle! Playing as Drazhoath I not only got to deal with Tretch and Imrik on MY terms. Green fuck up north only made me pay for a bribe instead of coming to excavate my anus before I have a non hobbo army up.
>>521674492I'm blind, read for me.
>>521675152General's Bodyguard hits things real good, gets hit real good and moves fast real good. USE IT LIKE ELITE CAVALRY assuming you're playing a good game like Rome 1 / Medieval
>>521675014Last time I played Drazhoath I had to spend like 15 turns chasing Tretch around the same two provinces, it was maddening. And then Ku'gath of all people declared war. Imrik had like 4-5 dragons by the time I got time to go after him. Thankfully I only had to deal with the one stack beacause Queek was eating him from the other side and winning, so after I finished off his starting province I found a surprisingly reliable ally to the west.And then I realized Grimgor had captured the entire Mountains of Morn and was after me next.
>>521675503I beelined Tretch because thats my experience as well usually. caught him pants down and blew the rats up. Then Headed south and Managed to catch Imrik before he has his dragon. Grimgor and Greasus luckily chose to not declare war but threathen me instead. I bribed Kugath and then headed straight for Greasus and thats where Im now, sold Kugath settlement for military pact and now Im heading for Grimgor.
>>521671861By having a normal life and interacting with women
>>521676050I got really unlucky because I had literally just finished taking the third province settlement, and then Tretch declared war before me and sent one stack in each direction, which was the maximum "Oh fuck here we go" moment.>I bribed KugathHonestly probably should have done the same, but then I thought how fun it'd be to have those islands as my factory province (even though that was a bit too many factories for early game and it kinda hamstrung my materials income).Thinking next time I'll play Astragoth or Zhatan next, not sure. Honestly I love the Infernal Legion lore.
>>521669805don't ever come back tranny
Sigmar cool but Age of Sigmar bad.
>>521676392Id much rather have Kugath as buffer vs Cathay and Gelt at this point. Those Islands aint going anywhere and lategame of Chorfs utterly fucks on Nurgle.
What's the difference between light and heavy cavalry as well as ranged cavalry?
>>521676751yes
>>521676907is it not self explanatory?
>>521676907Light cavalry are faster and designed for hit and run.Heavy cavalry are tankier and designed for actual melee combat.Ranged cavalry are uselesser and designed to pad out rosters.
>>521677116ranged are for hitting and not getting hit
>>521676907>lightSpeedy, lightly armored, tend to lose equal conditions battles against anything but squishy archers and artillery, better at running down routing units, adequate at best for hammer and anvil.>heavySpeedy but not as much, heavily armored, will probably win the battle against units that don't directly counter them (also depends on how good the opposing unit is of course, but they've generally got very good chances), can be used to run down fleeing units but that's usually kind of a waste, I'd rather just set a unit of ranged to shoot them in the ass as they flee if you don't have light cav/hounds for that, great for hammer and anvil.>rangedThey're archers/gunners.On horses!And they suck at melee.
>>521671861how are male feminists a thing?like what's the point of being a disgusting retard?
Ranged cavalry are ranged units.In other words: they are good.Light cavalry are the exact equivalent of dogs.You don't use them to fight, you only use them to chase down routing enemy units and take control points in settlement/siege battles or to keep one enemy unit busy by getting chased the entire battle without ever attacking.
>>521676907light cavalry is light because they are not wearing heavy thingsheavy cavalry is heavy because they are not wearing light thingsranged cavalry has ranged attacks because they have ranged weapons while riding on horses
>>521677410I'm sure you have an extensive list of 1000 different things that being a feminist means and entails, and I'm also sure that 1000 of those are wrong assumptions.
>>521677410Well you see anon, I open up the news, and I see a case of a violent household murder where a husband killed his wife and/or children, and I feel pretty bad and condemn it, and apparently to some people that makes me a sexual predator and a pedo.
>>521677410>Don't hate women >Feminist
A Marius Leitdorf/Thanquol/Yin-Ying DLC would be the tightest shit ever, search your feelings, you know this to be true.
>Next TW is revealed>Empire 2>First expansion is the Civil WarI'm immediately selecting confederates.
>>521676907In what game? It does depend a little.Light Cavalry is quick, good at charging down light to troops like archers but can't fight in melee. They're fantastic at running down and killing fleeing troops in some games (Shogun 2), and awful in others (Warhammer)Heavy Cavalry is slower with much more damage potential. In some games (Med 2, S2, 3K) they're beasts on the initial charge and will delete anything but spears the instant they make contact. In others (Attila, Warhammer) the initial charge isn't as devastating but the do a lot of damage in melee in while the charge bonus is still active (Attila). In some games, some versions (Rome 1 cataphracts, Warhammer Grail Guardians) they can stick around in melee and fight like infantry, in others (S2) they get deleted.Range Cavalry are skirmish cavalry, and are greatly dependent on they're weapon. In some games (S2:FoTS, Warhammer) they're just straight upgrades from Light Cavalry, in others they have a distinct difference in roll (S2). Can be completely busted if they're range is long enough and damaging enough (S2 Blundebuss, the entire horse archer roster of R1 and Med 2).
>finish creating Gelt's wizard stack>literally cannot dieI didn't even make it a full stack. Just put in one of each wizard order (besides Gold) and the captain he starts with.It's fucking unbeatable.I'm rolling around with 299 winds and I can regen it infinitely anyway because of the death wizard.And the special landmark means I'm at maxAnd again it's not even a full stack of wizards.At turn 24 I cannot lose.
>>521678278Marius would be more exciting than Todbringer desuGets his own schizo mechanic
that's it im installing cheats
>>521679070yep, and because wizards have really weak autoresolve the ai stops playing like a pussy and attacks you
>>521675379Don't forget the free replenishment, too.
>>521679110Toddy is already in the game, already has a unique model and gear. It would take very little effort for CA to add him, to the point he should be a 2nd FLC lord for whatever bundle adds the last empire content (which should be the Ar-Ulric and White Wolf/Middenland content).
>VCO Thorek has a route involving a partnership with Grimm Burloksson to establish an underway railway combining his protective runes and Grimm's machinery, and even though Thorek is still grumbling about muh old ways he has to admit that's way too good to be against it.This is the kind of riveting character development I was really forward to from narrative mods.
>>521669920How is this news? he has spouted this opinion since 2023
>>521679813yeah but hed need a campaign mechanic
>>521680302He could share whatever mechanic they give to the Ar-Ulric. Honestly the should both share Middenland in the classic Warhammer 1 style, or at the very least the Warhammer 3 Vlad/Izzy style.
