Thanquol soon, friends!
Slaaneshes perverse glories!
Halflings soon, friends!
i hate you all so much
>>537642216Thk for making new thread, was trying to do it but got three time the 300s in a row.you could have removed the the [Embed] though
>>537642452Built for tall burly Stirland halberdiers
For a little chariot I pack a big punch!
What are we listening to?
>>537642603Started new Throgg campaign, so, his new voice.
>>537642494t. mpnigger
Northmen come!
ZAMN
>>537642452>Halflings
>>537642535On the contrary, I think we should start collecting them.
>>537642976mais c'est pas le comte d'Averland??
You will buy more dlc.
>>537643279but sir they suck ass and are usually reskinned models or mechanics
When are we getting more rat dlc? I want a good dlc for once.
>>537643626weapon dlc next year
>>537643279That's all these pieces of shit care now, just buy more e-figurines, it's not plastic but it is also overpriced garbage. Imagine fixing the fucking game for once, who is coding this shit? Nothing ever works, the load times are insane, the launcher is utter garbage, why are they not putting any resources to things that REALLY matter unlike a shit dlc with water elements that hype nobody? I would be really hype if they actually fixed this fucking game and created a good launcher with a proper mod organizer that didn't deactive and scramble all the mods every time they do a hotfix. Fuck you CA, get your shit together.
>>537643123Marius doesn't spit on them afaik.
>>537643947isn't the engine as old as rome (the real one)>>537643983he probably does weird shit since he's coocoo (still Franz"s nigga)
How fucked is this patch?
>>537642976>buck broken by LokhirYeah I can't take this character seriously. He just comes off like a seething loser.
CA: Mumbai, India
>>537643279Last one I bought was the chorf one. Not buying anything else for TW3 unless it has Tomb Kings or Dark Elves.
>>537642812what the fuck is that
>>537644579too much trenbolone without anastrazole
>>537642812Where's this image from tho?

>tfw my Paladin Lords are cathay exchange students Are there no french VAs in Bongland?
CA: Noctis Labyrinthus, Mars
Drawchads, draw something!
>>537645035At least they have shields!
>>537645245too much to bring one random french, same for expeidtion 33 or something
>>537645035How is it? Fun?
It's over
Mon-keighs where are the space squires residing at? I want one
CA DELIVERING YET ANOTHER MASSIVE CONTENT DROP FOR THEIR MASSIVE ADVERTISEMENT OF THE GREATEST ANNIVERSARY EVERhttps://youtu.be/zsHJV-I03iU
>CA finally adds locations unique to coast>They suckThey're ironically good for all factions except coast. They make everyone else slightly more pissed at you and gives you items and abilities you already have.
>>537646420sad no modders has yet to shit one custom location one for every faction
>>537645976Sorry, I took them all.
>>537645887Campaign is good, battles are solid, wish there was less blob, but that's a warscape enginge thing across most new total wars.They genuinely inovated with mechanics, lots of customization. Imo a great TW game>>537645976Not enough space chivalry
Can we just move on to 40k already. TW3 is deader than dead.
>>537646010spearmanii bros...
Alberic's voicelines are great he talks about the lady ALOT more than Morgiana I think

>>537646420>Adds sporty klepto milf officer as a generic lord>Expects me to play with cum all over my keyboard Wow, CA can't get anything right amiright guys?
>>537642603
>>537642603Various 1 hr phonk playlists
>>537647470Wait, it's next year? wtf?
>>537647843If they delay it anymore it will be next yearThey've delayed this DLC what, 3 times already?
>>537642603Telling you is against the rules.
>>537647470>next year with the dlcsay sike right now
>>537646795Not happening, sorry.
>>53764679540k happens but the dev time is as fast as CA is making anything right nowEnjoy 1 update a year and 2 DLCs every 3 years
>>537646420How would this work with a vampire? Isn't their flesh hard as marble?
Here is a legit tip about Khalida; dont take more than 4 skelly archers into her army. with all the ammo buffs, its more important that you protect those 4 from getting overrun by having more frontline. 4 skelly archer do the same (if not more) dps than 6 skelly archers.Also Soul casket rite seems to be buffed it only takes 10 turns to expire so make sure to have 5k gold everytime it gets available.
>>537646420>Unusual Locations>Added 20 new Unusual Locations:>Updated the existing Unusual Locations restrictions (where lore-appropriate) to make them accessible to more races.Did you get some of the older ones ?
>>537648342How would what work? A sorceress could use a captured vampire as a dark magic generator so she can skip a step in her spells and just drain it's life to fuel her spells. That's basically how mass sacrifices in Fantasy work. And a vampire is full of dark magic to use. It would not be pleasant.
>>537646540>colored-hair anti-Chud patrol getting me

>>537652003I don't know what you're talking about. Me? I'm talking about the total war goon posting
>>537652126The lengths people will go to deny the inscrutable
>>537652126It looks even worse now, thanks for clarifying that's a 100% penis.
>>537651282>>537652126Flick gets confused by his own Sameface sometimes.
I thought this was the update they were gonna remove ladders, uhgWake me up ehen ToT releasesThat abbreviation still makes me laugh
>>537653241and these guys cry about ai...
This last patch scrambled everything up so much it even changed the background I usually had in the opening menu, what the fuck are they doing?
>>537654931Seems like all these things, including list of active mods and such might be overwritten on the in-game files so a new patch erases it, pure slop.
>>537654931Anon please. Background changes every time a DLC is dropped or bigger update is released. This time Kangz were updated so default background got switched to Kangz.
>>537654931I noticed weird issues with the battle music in the beta where it would not start when its supposed to, or not start back up after pausingthis didn't happen before the beta, no idea if it's happening in live or not
>ToT video released>6.3 releasedW-what's next for TWW now ? Surely they can't hope for us to just wait up to November like this ?
>>537645245there is one guy and he voices louen and every french character in previous total wars
>>537655959>W-what's next for TWW nowThe future of Total War: Warhammer III
Hmmm today i think i will play dei for rome 2
>>537646010>Skulls>Basically nothing to show for dlc even, not even a full trailer>Nothing to actually show for anniversary either - no 40k, no med3, STILL no DLC>Keep delaying dlc and even fucking blogs/vlogsThis entire retrospective is so pathetic honestly. It's blatantly only done because they have to market something to their fanbase, but they have fucking nothing to show.

Seamanii getting suttra ekked
Shame about the update. I was having fun crushing with hobgobbos and bull riders. I imagine mods will be broken for weeks. Any recs for a fun vanilla campaign that isn't a demon faction? captcha (nASSd)
>>537660302Also hands down best blood pack
Any tips for settra? I feel like if I go south to deal with mannfred then skarbrand storms in and murders me while if I go north then mannfred or wurrzag attack me instead
>>537648342It isn't, vampires have supple sexo bodies if they had one when they were turned. Khalida's flesh is supposed to be hard as marble when she isn't in corpsemode but that has never been integrated into rules.
Which LL has the smallest penis?
>>537661194Mannlet most likely.
I hate Thorek so much holy shit, why is he so unkillable at level 9, he is literally a one man army, how can you even deal with him with Khalida, he is impossible to kill, impossible to route, you can kill his entire army and he is still fighting to death.
Anyone wtached today livestream ? Anything worth mentioning in it ?
>>537661308also he has 2 full armies while you still can only have 1, massive armor and you have barely any armor pen with your artillery and bone giant
>>537661449Don't piss him off then?
>>537661194Lizardmen have none so they have negative penis size but the realistic answer is probably Teclis
>>537661543You start with negative relations and he always declares war on you around turn 10. There is nothing you can do about that because tomb kings are poor as fuck and even if you gift him money (you barely have any as TK early game) the relations don't go up as quick.
>>537661281>>537661583Dwarfs exist
>>537661735You can literally join his wars against greenskins and later ask him to join your wars against starting vamps which should negate the negative relations and from that you can work something out usually.
>>537661735Take one of starting vamp settlements and give it to Thorek for treaties, how hard is that?
>>537662001Will try to do that next time.
>>537661543Nah he will declare war on you unless you stupidly gift him that settlement that I forget the name of
>>537662026most people posting here don't even play the game
>>537661735Gift him mahrak so he can complete the devils backbone region and hell be your best friend (and a pretty good skarbrand blocker)
>>537662026I'm honestly just baffled at how strong he is while having like 200 armor.
>>537661194I'm quite sure they remove mummies dick.
>>537662218Make sure to fight him when he gets his quest weapon :^)
>>537661308>>537661735You have to take out vampshits before Thorek occupies that ruined settlement. Stay at Lahmia (in channeling stance) untill you get a second stack of skellies. Research the second dynasty and bone giant tech that gives the bone giant ammo replenish ability. After that all you have to do to beat Thorek is bog him down with skeletons while you bomb with soul casket + ckull catapult. And bone giant can easily kill snipe Thorek if you position it well.Also this>>537648367
Did they do something to the DLC unlocker with this new patch?
>>537662756creamstaller doesn't work but this from cs rin did: "Confirmed here, SmokeAPI 3.0.0 is working, just rename the vanilla "steam_api64" file to "steam_api64_o" and paste everything in the game folder"https://files.catbox.moe/haeywj.zip
>>537663016Thanks, will test it out
>>537662026>just abuse cheat mechanics
Creambros, as suggested by people on that russian site I'm not going to name, downloading the previous creaminstaller (4.10.2) works
>>537661194Queek
>>537662026you should be gaining positive rep with ironbrow as khalida just from killing off those hampires, no need to give him settlements unless you really want a military alliance immediately i go north and btfo queek and get even more positive rep with himthis was in the beta though maybe they changed TK starting rep?
>>537664374Imagine paying $15 when you could give your $1000 computer slavic herpes instead
>>537664374I'm using the same creamapi I was using for Thrones of Decay (April 2024) over a year ago. Nothing has changed.
40k is coming
The base "bomb" ability looks better than the upgrade version.-more use.-more explosive damage.-less cooldow.The only thing Pyromaniac seems to have is the burning contact effect.
welcome to the junglewe got fun and games

>>537666274not enough squire in that image
they're never going to make another historical tw are they
Little fucker ambushed me. This is unprecedented.
>>537666801nigger they literally announced there will be "plenty to enjoy whether you like history or fantasy" in the upcoming anniversary announcements in december.Now, wether that means a shitty remaster of Medieval 2 or something with actual effort remains to be seen.
>>537666991>we're here to announce 40k! And a Warhammer 4 AND 5! >also we're releasing a limited print poster of Medieval 2's cover art

>>537668814Any wizard can summon a elemental you dumbo. They are unaligned magical entities.
>The manlets haven't responded to our hailing attempts, captain. They're charging their crossbows. They've opened fire!>Shields are holding Captain!
>>537668930Are you saying any wizard in the game will be able to summon a sea elemental?
>>537669028They should. Any battle mage(pretty much every caster in the game) should be able to do it.
>>537669000How long have you been doing this shit...
>>537669197I'm more interested in how the fuck he isn't bored playing same faction over and over for years.
>>537668338he's still here...
>>537669406Why is it so strange? Are we not a general infested by perpetual Empirefags that never played anything else than Franz?
>>537667262guess I never really looked at them too close I always thought they were bald but look at those flowing locks
>>537669809I doubt there are actually more than one or two of those.
>>537669197Since they switched them from axes to cutlasses >>537669406They're my favorite faction
>>537669835CA did em dirty desu, they were even better in Monstrous Arcanum
>>537670006Did they release with the axes? I seem to remember that being a pre-release thing that they changed on release.
"Super OP sci-fi faction with regular planetary destruction">Single Imperial Gold Wizard would be able to bring the Imperium to their knees.
>>537667858Todd Howard, sue this bitch.
I like playing as Dwarfs.I don't like fighting against Dwarfs.
>>537670208Spoopy flailing hair is too difficult for CAHell that's probably too difficult for AAA shit
>>537670263I don't remember. I just remember going nuts when I saw a living tomboy pirate LL. The whole factions feels like it was custom-made to satisfy my unique brand of autism.
>>537666027is it the same debuff as burning head? -8 leadership is better than slightly more damage.
>>537670301There is no winds of magic in 40k so he wouldn't be able to do anything.
>>537671347"Super OP sci-fi faction with regular planetary destruction" >Imperium slips through Chaos and appears in Fantasy>Holy Terra is destroyed in a week by single Gold Wizard on a stolen Lizard Man spaceship
>>537669406don't give him attention he doesn't even do the meme correctly. he uses zombie units when it suits him and ally recruits elfs.
>>537646540what's wrong with m*n?stop liking evil women.
>>537672141This image still implies that women don't want evil men to even change
>>537672141That was millenial men, zoomer men are into hags. The only thing about women that changed is that they are now into furry abusers.

Confession: I believe that Rome 2 is a truly great game.
>>537674542>mfw angela is dropping just as im taking a pause on TWW because of this bugfest of a patcharigatou bugmen

A remindert that The Tides of Torment is coming in late October 2026!
>>537674542who is that?
nobody cares about the Timmy of Turners update Do you guys have any suggestions for army composition in pharaoh? I’m thinking missile are really strong and armies should be built around them
Damn, the AI actually assassinated my level 19 hero with the agent action. I don't think I've seen that happen since Warhammer 1.
>>537676376nobody cares about boring spearmanii in loincloths
Did they crack down on cream? I can't get the game to launch
>>537676376Missiles really strong but it depends on who you're fighting, arrows are great but against heavy armor javs are the way to go.
>>537676842but anon, they have spearmanii (shields)spearmanii (two handed) spearmanii (throws spear) spearmanii (chariot) tons of variety!
>>537677032yeah I remember someone saying that javelins are really powerful, and maintain relevance in the mid-late game, which is rare in tw. They’re usually the unit you stop recruiting first
Liggers or KANGZ what do I play first
>>537677076You joke but Pharaoh has more spearmanii variety than other histoid TW. Not just stat variety but units with unique stances, and abilities that actually impact the game.
Are kings any fun to play now? Are they worth it at half shekels off?
>>537675901What happened to the boyslaves after twink death.Straight to the salt mines?
>>537675313I liked it, but its biggest failing is that it isn't Rome I.
>>537678408They were always fun, they're the Chorfs of WH2
>>537678753Heard they were balanced for shit in 3 so I did a skippa skippa on owning them until now
>>537676376posted this a few threads ago, it's the main sort of template I use for all my armies in Pharaoh, changing based on terrain and other things. I like to have two front lines, with a split down the middle for ranged, and my melee flankers will go around the outsides. The reserves can either be used to save the archers if they need it, bolster the front line, or help flank.Pharaoh doesn't really punish you for using mixed armies like some other games do, so you can pretty much do whatever as long as you have a battle plan.
>>537678515Twink death is heterosexual propaganda
>>537676842>sends single entity of different color to tank the entire enemy armykino strategical options
>>537679395ok Brian
>>537659098M3. Pretty much satisfies everyone in terms of guns, horsearcher fuckery, vgh greater gross germany, bismallahas, tinktinktinkYOOOOOOOOO if they expand to Japan, infantryfags, cavalryfags, ect ect. If we get a 40kTW that is calibrated to smaller arms tactics then have vicky with that engine later.>>537677510I gotta admit I don't like the twohand spearmanii. Unless you've got a pike using a spear with no shield feels silly. I'd rather have seen, or see in the future, different spearmanii animations - some tight and concentrated helf/delf style one for hoplite types and rancorous wildboy orc/vanilla R2 shit for the savages.>>537679395If twink death didn't happen and they aged gracefully (or could age gracefully) I am pretty sure you'd have societies that have the twinks be boy wives and women are reduced to some kind of horrifying gorean fiction milk-and-baby producing chattel. So far gone that Talibananans and Athenians would go "Dude chill out show some empathy"
remember princeofmacedon? good times.
>>537679187cute formation desu I was thinking lots of kiting would be good, and traditional battle lines just wouldn’t trade well on the highest difficulty settings.
>>537679980I used to watch him back in like 2005-2007 when him and heir were like the only tw YouTubers. Once you realize he only posts victories and never defeats, you realize how cringe he is
>>537679980Yeah I remember. Darren destroyed him to prop up Legend. Not even fucking kidding.
>>537680331>Darren destroyed him to prop up LegendI have no idea what this means.>>537680239To be fair, I dont think anyone back then was watching the videos for any great strategic knowledge. They were just entertaining.
the poll got up to 50 responses so I made a chart of the results. as expected soihammer is the most played game with 88% of respondents having played it. following it is shogun 2 at 64%, rome 2 at 60%, and medieval 2 at 50%. rome 1, attila, and 3 chinkdoms were all tied at 42%, with empire, pharaoh, and napoopan coming in slightly behind. the least played games were the old ass ones plus troy and thrones of britannia.it's interesting that shogun 2 is the second most played game, but doesn't seem to be the second most talked about game. maybe it didn't captivate people like rome 2 and medieval 2. my suspicion that empire and napoleon were less popular than rome 1 also turned out to be correct with them being equal to or behind the maligned pharaoh. is this proof that people care about setting more than mechanics?
>Minor Cathay faction caravan shows up at Mymidens during my first few turns>Join their war against Nakai for like 3k >Invest it in buying Belegar a tiny coffin and move on with my life>20 turns later>Nakai hasn't declared war on anyone elseHe-he's coming, isn't he?

>>537680506why did warhammer only get one option when all the other games got one for each number
>>537680929based the only reason I know about Legend and the trunny vtuber are because faggots here post them non stop. I just wanna game for godsakes
>>537680457to be fair, he’s the source of the “master of strategy” meme. his videos had a tone which gave off the impression that he thought he was some kind of expert
I'm just doing some testing and I'm wondering if anybody knows which mod causes me to supposedly have access to all the factions' RoR despite not actually having access to them when I "unlock" them. It's been like this for a while and haven't really cared until now
>>537680506what poll?
>>537680683Speaking of, fuckign rats just uno reversed my ambush and stalk ambushed me. I wouldn't be surprised if this was some kind of order of operations error.
>>537681095>his videos had a tone which gave off the impression that he thought he was some kind of expertI can see that. But to be fair, I cant imagine youtube videos of Total War games in 2006 would've blown up if they were by a guy who was going DURRR DEN I GO LEFT CUZ I DUNNO LOL DUURRRR the way that's popular now.
>>537681232the poll
>>537681045We're too strong.
>>537659098empire 2 covering from 1853 to 1904>crimean war>american civil war>franco prussian war>scramble for africa>boxer rebellion>russo japanese wartell me it wouldn't be kino
>>537680506S2 is also old, many have played but not much to talk about anymore. This general used to just be the medieval japan thread.
>>537680043Depending on the units you're using, a front line works just fine on hard difficulty (not sure about higher don't play it) with support, but they do take a lot of damage regardless because of lethalityIt is region/faction dependent too, like in Egypt for example you get better kiting units but in Greece you get better front lines.
>>537680506Shogun 2 is too shallow for discussion. What's to talk about? Did you use rock, paper or scissors? Were you team red or blue or green?
>>537681260I offer this as my rebuttal >just like Alexander would have done it is also a PoM meme I rest my case
Are all the Khorne LLs retard proof or is there one with any sense of challenge?
>>537681475I dont know any of these memes so none of your rebuttals work on me.
>>537681595My only Khorne experience is loading up Skulltaker and doing some razing/making blood hosts then waiting for the khorne passive occupation thing but then it just not happening and replenishment being really annoying
>>537680683>Playing Delves when they are going to get a rework SOON with the Devotees units and the naval-attack from ships
>>537681045let's be real here the 3 warhammer games are really just one game with a lot of dlc>>537681232the "which total war games have you played?" one that I've been posting for the last several days.>>537681419it's not as old as rome 1 or medieval 2 though which seem to be discussed more than shogun 2.
>>537667858>4 hoursFuck that going back to Clio
>>537681659lurk more then
>>537676376I find missiles kinda useless in this game. I won multiple battles where I was outnumbered 2 or 3 to 1 as Troy and most of the time my missile units would run out of ammo and I'd either let them sit afk in the forests or use them to chase away the routing enemy units. Most of the units in this game have shields, even early game. Unless you use Direct Shot and flank with your achers you won't get much value. Some infantry units are crazy good, especially the ones tied to Special Recruitment. Honestly I think I'd rather just go with a full infantry army then recruit slingers/archers. Though they are quite useful while sieging
>>537682026No. I'll continue to play the games and only come in when I want to post something.
There is a legend spread by humanity that Lizardmen don't have sexes and don't have sex, and that Lizardmen just magically spawn from spawning pools. This is false, Lizardmen just don't have sex drives unless the Old Ones tell them, too. Spawning pools just off-spring from the orgys in ancient times. The off-spring are just held in stasis until the great plan calls for the release on mass.
We are getting another What's Next before the end of September.
>>537681886Literally what are you talking about?>>537682147Spawning pools are literally a machine.pooping out eggs from genetic templates.
>>537681472it has basically the same unit categories as most other games. how is that more shallow?
>>537682147Ridiculous. Next you'll be saying dwarf reproduction is not related to a runelord planting a piece of dwarfbeard on the ground and watering it with Bugman's XXXXX until a newborn dwarf pops out.
>>537682371Which of course is ridicu-AAHHH>*falls off horse*
>>537681920Rome 1 also has a remaster and M2's setting is extremely popular while also being the most modded game.
>>537682363It just doesn't FEEL like it's got variety at all. Obviously using generic lightswordsman in both a Roman army and an Egyptian army is just a generic lightswordsman, but there's enough of an aesthetic shift for it to feel brand new.
>>537682084Is the ol’ hammer and anvil effective on infantry? How do chariots fair? I’m about to play a chariot-focused faction. I feel like infantry could be kited and out-maneuvered but idk yet
>>537679395Off to the salt mines with you.
Did you sign it?
This is why these guys will always be better than the undead. They fought valiantly, they slaughtered many their number in rats, their position was overwhelmed and they routed, but they found their courage and regrouped, and now their haggard little band is going to sap the rat artillery battery that's been hammering their bretheren. Glorious GLORIOUS melee combat.
>>537683005oh god it’s you again…
>>537683005I could do that with Depth Guard thoughesteverbeitmayhaps
>>537683005Sure enough.
>>537683005>>537683323>>537683335Also wolves howeveritis.
I've decided I'm in the mood to play some Total War again. Do I play Shogun 2, Rome 2 or WH2?
>>537682304>Literally what are you talking about?- Devotees of Slaanesh unit.- Army being able to attack port-settlements from the sea without landing first.
>>537683560Queek
>>537682147Where are the LizardWOMEN then ?
can we please stop entertaining the coomer that just wants to fantasize about lizard furry porn?
>>537682663For me it wasn't the aesthetics that gave S2 variety but the mechanics, unit stats were low and made the faction bonuses/special units change how you fought battles.
>>537682895It's funny how only that edit ever gets reposted
>>537681235I've enforced a new "No retreating" policy and it's really paying off. I didn't think this would end well given I got ambushed but I shouldn't have doubted the unbreakable resolve of my men. The only Tosan to die with a clean sword were those who got vaporized by the fair and balanced bound nuke. >>537683323Probably not. One hit from a plague claw wipes out 1/10 a unit of sartosans but depth guard will be wiped. They're also too slow to run down the rat ranged units. Their leadership is pretty ass too under fire. Plus they're like... what, 6 times the upkeep?>>537683429Wolves kneel to rat chaff but 2 would have really helped here.
>>537682304>Spawning pools are literally a machine.pooping out eggs from genetic templates.No, they are a really complex magical device that is basically freezer with eggs in them and time release. Why do you think some spawning pools can be beyond repair with mininal damage. It's the egg container, Lizardmen can repair the machine all they want, but if the eggs are already miscarried, it won't produce more lizard men.>>537683896...as the old ""retconned"" lore states humans just can't tell the difference. Not without dissection, or if you are in the place and time the Old Ones allow their genitals to work.
>>537683005Plagueclaws are such absolute fuckers
>>537659098I pick Elder Scrolls, because if I picked Medieval 3 my favorite faction would be relegated to regional minor status.
>>537684262>what, 6 times the upkeep?We already had this discussion a while ago when we talked about zombies, /twg/ does not understand cost efficiency
>>537683997It would be easier if you kneeled to the RP'ers. You will be forever below them.
is total war pharaoh good now? I love the time period but was turned off by the reviews on release
>>537682663>enough of an aesthetic shift for it to feel brand newyou play the game for spectacle more than gameplay if changing the visuals is enough for thatthe games have gone to shit because most of the playerbase is like that now
>>537684813the games have gone to shit because I prefer Rome I over Shogun II? That's a hell of a claim, anon.
>>537684707well I’m a Illuminati slave so pretty much everyone is above me in status; I’m always punching up. I already tried kneeling, they only respect strength :)
>>537683997I'm telling you the truth
>>537684787It was always good. It's just limited by it's period. But it's mechanics are the peak of TW.
This thing fucking sucks. Why would I trade -20 MD for BVL when large single entities have like 800 weapon strength? Absolute ass weapon. We can craft these now though right? >>537684665Yea good call here let me just recruit an 18 stack of depthguard on turn 24, brb. Surely they won't get focus fired by the AI due to their high value and low model count.
>>537680896>>537681019Kthe fuck is he looking at?
>>537684931i refuse to believe there is someone who prefers rome 1 over shogun 2
>>537685404it has more Soul™®©
>>537685172A sorceress is servicing his "Kraken" if you know what I mean.
>>537685404well believe it. nothing in shogun 2 ever gave me the same thrill that that one siege defence in Rome I did, where I managed to fend off a few hundred men with literally 1 remaining Velite until they broke and routed.
Still discovering new perk rebalances in 6.3. This is really nice, actually. Almost makes it worth wasting a skill point on. Too bad I'm forced to sink it on gamblers wit so I don't keep getting stalk ambushed every four seconds.

>>537684787Most of the bad review were from before the Dynasties update, it's a good game now but it is abandoned so there are some bugs and oversights. Definitely worth it if you are interested in the time period imo.
>>537682745yeah, for example as Troy you start with the Troyan sworn warriors or something like that, they have armour piercing dmg and high speed. I used them to kill the enemy archers once the melee infantry was engaged, they absolutely demolish those ranged units. Then they are free to become the hammer.>chariotsI didn't play long enough to play around with them, but I got the chariot mount for my general. It was alright, though it decreases the bodyguard amount so you need to be very careful not to lose your general. Probably very good as a normal unit
>>537643947You literally have a pic of a good DLC next to your rambling schizobabble comment about how bad the DLCs are lmao
>>537686358I don't think CA wants their offices to get bombed
>>537682895I unironically did
With the siege rework will units actually know how to use siege equipment now? They've been staring at these ladders all battle and haven't moved an inch.
>>537685172His head is just heavy.
>>537683896skinks
>High Elf and Norsca update>One of the LLs is literally called the Sea Lord>Still no naval battlesGet the book
>>537683997If we aren't supposed to think about this, why is their several decade old fluff describing that lizardwomen exist, and have sex to make kids?
>>537687554The sea lord is a meme he lost every battle at sea he had so it's better he is confined to land.
>>537683997This is why we need ratchads.We hated them, we drove them away, but they protected us from the liggers...They were heroes, we just didn't see it...
alright then let's see what all the fuss is about
>>537687881>We needed the homosexuals to protect us from the heterosexuals
>>537687881ratfag was literally a faggot posting fag shit. W should celebrate his demise.
>>537687554lost technology I'm afraid
>>537683005I haven't been in /twg/ for a few months at least, good to see people are still campaignposting
>>537687881I think this has psychologically effected me in that I always make sure to genocide and furry or scaly races in whatever I play. Monstergirls however are not only tolerated but encouraged. (You know, so I'm not a bigot)
>>537687554>>537689082I unironically think it's possible we'll get a naval battles mod, it's possible with the modding tools we currently haveI know that sounds schizo but hear me outModders are (or were) actively developing naval combat for Attila's Medieval Kingdoms 1212 overhaul modWarhammer modders have already been adding magical naval units like the Tomb Barque, original Thunderbarge mod, the Black Ark Landship, the Norscan Longship, the Tzeentch flying towers, or all the ship mods 99999999 added to Vampire CoastAnd of course we have ship-like game units like CA's Thunderbarge and the LandshipSo we already have models and units that are effectively ships, just on landSo what do we need to have actual naval battles?We need to take those naval units who basically already exist, and give them the ability to carry other units, and give them naval maps and naval landing maps to fight onBut we already have the ability to do ALL of thatWe've been getting tons of new battle maps via mods, including new siege maps some of which even have harbours or coastlinesWe already have unit mods with the ability to pick up and carry other units, and drop them off somewhere else. There's a dwarf gyrocopter transport mod that does thisWe even have actual concept art and unit cards for naval units from Warhammer 1, before CA scrapped the concept, and we have Warhammer Fantasy naval games like Man o War and Dreadfleet to more units draw fromAll we would need to do is bring all these things together and we'd have working naval battles
>>537689517You don't need even new mod tools the ship code from Attila is still in TW3.
>>537689082lost technology indeed
>>537689517BasedI BELIEVE
>>537689723Yeah but its hard to work with, see the 1212 team's attemptsMy point is I don't even think we necessarily need it, we could just have "normal" units that look like ships pretending to be ships without using the naval code, and we could have them carry other units and fight on sea and all of that with the tools we currently haveIt would be a little jank and it wouldn't be "real" ships but it would be better than the literal nothing we currently have
What is the Dark Portal of Warhammer?
>>537689082Helves navy should unironically look like that.
How are you going to have ship battles with dragons and monsters you dunces?
>>537690363Like how Man o war and Dreadfleet did, make it a mix of ships, sea monsters and flying units
>>537690363by depicting them as they are in the tableslop game you dunce

What's the point of this general anyway? It's just the 4-5 resident cord users spamming their forced oc, eceleb and reposts every thread
>>537692153you're describing every general. /vg/ is a containment board. it was created specifically to be a containment board.
>>537692153This is one of the oldest generals on /vg/Also we don't use discord, there is another site but it's not discord
>Hierotitan is back for KhatepThe madmen actually did it... this is the best update in TW3 history.
>>537692309>Oldest>When it was dead for years after Rome and only got resurrected back due /tg/fags and their obsession with buff semi naked midgets
>>537692458And how old do you think the 10 dozen gacha generals are?Also, what's the point of being tribalistic in /twg/? Just post about the Total War games you like, nobody is stopping you from discussing Rome Total War if you want to do that
>>537692806He just wants to dramafag
I want to be aggressive and attack immediately but I'm not sure if my 8 starting units can beat 11 units on legendary. that being said, if I wait and recruit 2 more units, they'll probably be about to recruit more units than I can so attack is probably the only option.I'm overwhelmed by the sheer excess of paradox bloat on the campaign map. Hopefully it all starts to click, just seems like a lot of mechanics to juggle
>>537692938I didnt play Tausret but you usually have an advantage over those starting enemies by having some high tier units in your starting army, so use those
>>537692934>Not my hecking cozy cord club!>>537692806My point is that this general only exist so parasocial faggots like the squirefags and ratfags can jerk off together while killing the intent of the general and chasing out actual players. Just because some other generals suffer from the same cancer doesn't make it a good or acceptable thing
Giant battle kino
>>537693627Nobody is playing right now
>>537692938It's not a tough battle, all low tier enemies. You could beat them if you make good use of your chariots. If you really want to rely on chariots, I suggest pushing north into Canaan or Hatti if you can, because their armored chariots mog even Tausret's "best chariots" imo. But I also haven't played her very far as Tausret so maybe it gets better later. It is a lot at first, one thing that helped me was ignoring outposts, at first. They are worth building up when you can, but the AI will go straight for them, so you can't really protect them in the early game and even in the late game they are like expendable buildings sometimes. It took me a few hours at least to get it. Also, sometimes you can bait the enemy into attacking you by going for their outposts, but it's unreliable sometimes.
>>537693757This was what the aftermath looked like if anyone's interested.
>>537693627>He says, while also not posting actual gameplayTake your (You) and begone
>>537693627>People aren't horny in non-generalsSure sweetheart
>>537694672>Heh you can't criticize my off topic ocs because that's also off topic!

>>537693627>parasocial faggots like the squirefags and ratfags can jerk off together while killing the intent of the general and chasing out actual players.what are you on about, there isn't some group identity/erp shit about this, just random people shitposting. I posted 2 shitpost about squires and 40K and the rest was posting Pharaoh screens or talking about the games.

how do we fix daniel?
>>537698943I didn't do the new voice lines man why are you blaming me
>>537698205If you take a look at that general its just three faggots treating it like a discord channel saying good morning and good night and Identify each other by their avatar style posts. And these three works in shifts to bump threads on page 10.Hardly something good to compare this one with
>>537698945Give him an actual tech tree. That would solve 90% of the problemsGate some the tech trees behind god favor if you have to
>>537698945>>537699404Daniel himself is ALMOST fine. But you have other armies that don't involve him which feel really useless compared to other races because of no tech.If you don't go in with an idea of what you want to do it's also pretty overwhelming in terms of choice. 4 kinds of settlements, 5 ways to skill Daniel himself, so many units, it should be more of a slow build up where you start out undivided the game nudges you to one or two of the Gods (in a way that doesn't penalize you if you go for other ones) and then you can specialize from there.
>>537698945>>537699404tech tree is the biggest thingalso let him dedicate fully to different gods, nobody is going to play that shit 5 different times just to be able to use everything even if they do somehow fix him
>>537698945What this anon said.>>537699404Also his skill tree needs to be completely redone. It's an absolute mess and some of the effects on skills you are required to take only work in Realms of Chaos.Having to dedicate settlements is also annoying.
>>537698945who?
>>537700241Yuri from the prologue campaign (forma de Principe Demonio)
Am I the only one here who watched multiplayer battles regularly, but has no desire to ever play them?I think they’d be way more fun if CA ever adjusted unit prices separately from campaign. I’m beginning to think whoever is in charge of that is just a spiteful cuck.
>>537700606It's cool to see the gameplay and especially the planning aspect. I like the WH3 domination stuff way more than the land battles they focused on previously so I watch it from time to time.It's sad how small and/or bad the community it is. Enticity is a mid-level RTS player and just wins with whatever race/units he feels like because he has decent micro in a pool of players who literally forget units are on the battlefield for minutes at a time. It could be a pretty interesting game but it will never get to a high enough skill level to tell.
>>537698495Usually don't play chariot focus, decide to try something different, also didn't touch settings apart from turns per year
>>537700606i think its fun to watch sometimes

>>537708504It's his skill tree you fucking mongoloid. It only applies to HIM and HIS ARMY. Don't ever talk down to /twg/gers again.
>Click my lord on the butt>She doesn't react in a unique way Come on CA. Really?
>>537709130Stop clicking Skarbrand's butt
>>537572012Good, I feel the same way about the Germans in WWII as I do about the Imperium (and especially Space Marines) in 40k. They are really fucking cool, but hyperfixation on them suffocates the setting around them, and I find my enjoyment of them stifled by wishing I could see anyone else do anything else.
Honestly, the Tomb Kings are just fucking trash. Turn 32, I'm done, I'm good. They got patched and they are still trash, gonna play an actually good faction. So many cool units like the bone giants or the ushabti, just utter fucking trash. But I supposed they are ok in mp because they must be balanced price-wise or whatever, right? What a fucking sick joke.
>>537711052I might try TKE once it gets updated, never tried it before but maybe it's time
>>537698945>give him better base stats from the start so hes strong enough from the start but can be improved instead of jobbing to literally everything>rearrange his shit tier starting army to have less squishier units (change it from what it currently is to 2 Bloodletters, 1 Bloodcrusher of Khorne, 2 Nurglings, 1 Pox Rider, 2 Fiends of Slaanesh, 1 Seekers of Slaanesh, 2 Pink Horrors of Tzeentch, 1 Screamers of Tzeentch with the option of choosing which hero you want to start with; either Iridescent Horror, Alluress, Plagueridden or Bloodreaper)>give him 25% upkeep reduction on all daemonic units, change his skill tree upkeep reduction from 15% to 25%, get an extra 50% upkeep if you devote yourself to a specific god (basically have a free army full of daemons for the god of your choosing if you so wish to have that)>access to all the WoC/monogod units from the DLC>better replenishment rate (at least double from what he currently has at base)>Daniels body parts have similar buffs that all the other equipment got in the update, bigger numbers overall>an actual fucking tech tree
>>537711052When you come from playing Dwarfs, Empire, Skaven or even the fucking Ogres with insane units like the leadbelchers and you play the Tomb Kings and try with Khalida a somewhat range setup with bone giants, ushabtti their "Rite" artillery and such is like getting your dick sucked after cooming.I will wait for the fucking idiot to come and tell me I should be playing with Khemri Warsphinx and all that shit, totally boring.
was not confident going in desu
>>537712278>chariotsYou win this easily
are cathayan gunpowder units any good? i am kind of ambivalent about crane gunners but idk about iron hail gunners
>>537711052>mpfags out of nowherethe dreaded turin BROKE you
>>537712371yeah they're bretty gud
Who the fuck was the retard who though tyrranids signing non-aggression pacts would be dumb
Had fun so far, gonna continue and try to go for higher victories
>>537712740I would genuinely wrap my hands around every mpfaggot and choke them to death. You people have genuinely ruined this fucking game and many others.
>>537712759whoops wrong pic
>>537712694also why are the cathay grand cannons so accurate? why are they allowed to be better than dwarf cannons for sniping even small single entities
>>537712042>needs ridiculously op guns and artillery that the ai cannot mount any defense against to enjoy the gamesad!
>>537713004kys
>>537712694If you dont like Crane Gunners much you wont care for Iron Hail Gunners, theyre pretty useful against the Chorfs if youre going against them as Miao Ying early on but at most you want about 2 of them per army, they have really short range so have them ready to flank behind the slower Chorf Warriors then reign hell on them once they reach your frontline from behind>>537712986Wait until you compare and contrast Jade Warriors with Dwarf Warriors kek
>>537711052I think they're pretty strong, I've stopped playing this campaign because all the victory conditions are in the fucking desert miles away.Melee ushabti suck but the bone giant was mvp in my khalida campaign.
>>537712953>cringe and haggard spcel rageits just a game bro
>>537712694iron hail gunners are really only good in the early game to take out armored targets before you get crane gunners imothey are like a middle ground between grenadiers and crane gunners, but not as good as either of them at what they do
>>537713392Yeah exactly, it's just a fucking game, stop trying to make it "competitive" you fucking piece of shit, it's not going to be the new league of legends, fuck off.
Why do people playing a game competitively because they enjoy doing make some people seethe so hard?I don't understand.
>>537713142>>537713394thanks i'll test them out some timethe grenadiers have been great against the skaven blobs so far and i think i'll stay at 2 crane gunners per army
>"let people enjoy things!" >aka the Reddit approachholy Grim
>>537713736saar
>>537713523no, we are balancing the game the way it was MEANT to be in order for everyone to enjoy it, not just people (like you) who abuse broken units because they can't play :)you can play with all your campaign cheat mechanics though, we aren't taking those away from you

>>537713810nobody is enjoying this fucking game anymore
>>537714314I don't know I've never played against another player. I don't see how you could quantify how fun something you've never done is for other people.Anyway shouldn't it be for the multi-million dollar company to make a game that is fun when you use its mechanics?
i never actually played mp I just pretend to because its funny
>>537714739No one does, go check the current MP lobbies on WH3 kek
they need to add cute anime girl aesthetics to total war to try and capture a new audience
I think that they gave Blessed Saurus Warriors +8 melee attack and +12 weapon strength. Their stats seem kind of insane.
>>537715138I think they've always had that extra ws compared to the regular ones. Can't recall if they they had the extra melee attack though.
>>537715338they just had extra hp

holy autism
>>537709082>>537718756I will continue to look down on /twg/ until they play Daniel to Domination Campaign victory
>>537709082Is that... a global buff to all armies? But I wanted to prove the Daniel expert wrong!
>>537718756Not any of those anons, but when they say "armies", they mean armies, anon, not "heroes". Hence why technology is a big downside for Daniel.https://totalwarhammerplanner.com/planner/vanilla3/dae_daemons/wh3_main_skill_node_set_dae_daemon_prince>inb4 this is just colossal bait as usual on twg
>>537719264What do you want out of his skill tree? Not every Legendary Lord has factionwide buffs, and I told you, his demonic glory is his tech tree, not Danny's skill tree.
>>537719264These are army buffs. By fighting battles and dedicating to Khorne, you get these buffs to all armies, just like a tech tree.
>>537720330what if I want to use blue dudes instead of redhuh?you think about that?
>daniel can't warband upgrade regular daemons into their exalted versionsHe's doomed to forever be shit. Fitting, considering his garbage 'lore'/prologue and awful VA.
>>537646420>>537648552>>537651593Just got this one in my 'nessa campaign.
>>537723857This is why I play Belakor instead>has a tech tree>can confederate every WoC>innate lord of shadows>can equip items and ancillaries>can create multiple and better Daniels than most variants Daniel can becomeBelakors basically everything people wished Daniel could be and without needing mods, only thing Daniel has going for him is the supposed unique builds you can make but hes just not optimal for 80-90% of his body parts
>>537725909The idea of him is cool but execution is trash all-round and I'm not even talking about "optimal" or "strongest". He's rather ill-fitting and it seems sad that a lot of unique work went into one (1) LL, seems wasteful.
How do I remove the beta so I can get the actual update?
>>537723857Daniel would have been fantastic as a Champions of Chaos addition where you get a chaos undivided 'make your own hero(ine)' and ascend them to daemonhood>>537715046You meme but honestly given this decade is rapidly/has rapidly become the anime-girl shit it would potentially do well. Except until it came time to killing legions of anime girls. Then it'd do even better because for some reason there's an unholy alliance of ryona-guro fans and hyperfeminists who want lots of women warriors and for them to die
>>537727051Go to beta n select none retardbro
>>537726071>a lot of unique workI think the equip system was the only unique thing he has going for him desu, also my schizo theory is I feel like thats a scrapped mechanic that never got to see the light of day for the rest of the game outside of Daniel and Yuri in the prologue, I do also feel like Daniel was clearly placed in as like a GW thing like with VCoast and now GW has told them to never touch it again, just like VCoast
>>537727908In all fairness it's not really worth the effort to fix him if we're still getting chaos DLC. Gotta go back and look at him over and over with every single patch, and CA's clearly too incompetent to do that now. If they ever do anything with him it'll be after ToT/the supposed End Times DLCThere's enough mods at this point to salvage him for now but I'd like to see him build up a reputation and actually get chaos boys to flock to him/let him confederate other chaos factions and take his own shot at being everchosen/getting proper revenge on Belakor
>>537728313>Gotta go back and look at him over and over with every single patch, and CA's clearly too incompetent to do that now.Its funny because WoC keeps getting expanded with every DLC due to adding additional DLC units, heroes and even lords as well as certain LHs meanwhile Daniel still only has access to the roster hes had from the getgo, they really just dont give a fuck about him

whats longma
>>537712986Something about how they target models AFAIK. They have the same stats as EMP cannons, but consistently dish out way more damage. I think the oxes they're attached to give a constant elevation

>>537645529I can't, Im going to the /twg/ meetup in Orlando
So what ligger is the most fun
>>537740357Oxyotl, he still has the most fun teleportation mechanic and the one that makes the most sense because its not as overpowered as all the more recent additions which are straight up bullshit. Chamelon Skinks are also really fun to use with Oxyotl buffs
>>537740357Tehen since his sacrifices should have gotten a buffOxy if you want to play XCom: Enemy DaemonicEvery other dino lacks proper mechanics and I dont know how simple the starts are now. If Skulltaker got a nerf then GorRok is an easier campaign for dino mashing, otherwise play Kroq GarConsider waiting for Lost Calm to update

>>537711052skill issue from years of playing powercreep factions
>>537749536hmmmnyo
>>537743839>Astragaoth used to look like thisHe never looked like that. He was always a goofy looking dude. People forget that Chorfs were never had a coherent design their army book was a collection of random articles about evil dawi from a era where Fantasy was a clown show.
>>537745109Except Fantasy art became off-mode after 4th edition and jumped straight into artist fanfiction that had nothing to do with the lore or models because the artist that actually designed the characters already left GW by the time of 7th edition.
Do minor factions have some kind of CA mandated brain damage in their scripting?I propped up mousillon and my failed state supporting is a bit too realistic. He can't figure out how to defend his territory let alone take any.

>>537751002If you want to play nanny state you should have turned on minor faction buffs at the start of the campaign.
>>537751094Oh fug theres an option for that?I fucked up.
>>537751002>>537751094Yeah, minor factions are pretty much hardcoded to suck.I still can't tell if toggling that setting makes the game more or less fun.
>>537724894>>537730630this "invalidate all previously recruited units" buff system is the most cancerous garbage to ever exist in total war
>>537751624>green recruits with top of the line gear>old veterans with ample experiencerealismtotal war will be good when I can cripple my own industrial base by trying to churn out too many unviable prototypes
>>537749536>CA>FixLol, lmao even
total ratto death
>>537751413i turned that on and never noticed any difference
>>537751698surely it is not that hard to code existing units to get new equipment (see hidden buff) when you get the building to get said upgradeshell you can even add a small delay to it happening based on how many provinces away the unit is at the time of getting that buildingi have seethed about this since the overpowered armorer building in shogun 2 where every single max rank yari ashigaru is now useless
>>537751624is spending 10 turns running back to a province and recruiting an entirely new army really worth 20 armor though
>>537751926not in warhammer but i hate it as a concept
>>537751413Makes an obvious and large difference consistently. Always keep on.
>>537753089but an obvious and large difference *in fun*?
>>537751796Cringe
>>537753567Fun is subjective.
>>537751624>>537751698old total war games had this little thing called "retraining"because slightly better armor is not incompatible with their experienceold total war games also had armor upgrades that were meaninglessly minor so it didn't matter anyway
>>537753750shogun 2 is plenty old by now and it has the most impactful unit stat upgrade building in the entire series
>>537754303shogun 2 is part of the modern titles, not the old titles, it doesn't play like the old games
>>537754592This. If the camera isn't complete dog ass then its not the old games
Units having health = new Total War
>>537754692that is too blunt, units always had healthpassive replenishment, extremely responsive units, simplified city management and strategy, laser accurate ranged units and a reliance on timed active abilities are some defining features of new total war
>>537755101>extremely responsive units>laser accurate ranged unitsWhich "new" TW games have these? Sign me up.>simplified city management and strategyNone had much at all to begin with; non-point.
>>537755409>Which "new" TW games have these? Sign me up.???which don'thave you played the old games?
>Ligger AI is completely broken, cant even recruit unitsThey better patch this shit today or tomorrow.
>>537743839That's just a random chorf from the Tamurkhan book
>>537695882Only Miao and Zhao do that now.
>>537745109I prefer the actual Vilitch model, although the Curseling model from AoS is the best execution of the concept.
>>537749536They're worse than ever. CA Sofia is in charge now and they're utterly incapable of delivering a DLC or siege rework, and racial reworks are too much work for them, and their balancing is just adding more bonuses into everything.
>>537755409>>537755620meanwhile shogun 2's yumi ashigaru's high arcs have perfect accuracy
>>537756812>flatter arc and closer distance is more accurate>nowhere near "laser" accurateI already knew it was a disingenuous faggot, but thanks for putting in the time to prove me correct.
>>537756812Pharaoh archery mogs both t b h.
Pharaoh is the best Total War game you never played.
>>537756918lol

Speaking of subjectivity and fun, have any of you had >fun with any of the new unusual locations? I didn't save the collage the anon made a while back (assuming it had them all) so I don't quite remember if there's are any to chase. I remember there being a devastating Nurgle one but I think it's a downside, where non-Nurgle factions can get it (and consequently get fucked from it).
whens the last time somebody actually lost a campaign in the warhammer games?
>>537758636I always quit the moment I experience some kind of minor setback so I don't even know whether I would have lost or not.
>>537758378I got the Khorne +50% charge one on Bretonnia it was pretty funny
>>537758636I went against Malekith too early in my Hung campaign but beat him on a retry
It has only just begun.
>>537758636These days, yeah, where I quit that campaign to then play a different campaign. I give the AI more buffs, play on VH/VH and often do something that isn't the 'intended' or 'easiest' start and often bite off more than I can chew, or can be fucked to. This is turn <10 shittery, mind you. I haven't done this on campaigns I have yet to finish, though, this is when I've replayed them already. Stupid shit like my 10-strong army vs 20stack+settlement, and even if I win the battle (good luck), you'll be so weak that someone else who hates you already takes that opportunity.
>>537758636I haven't ever, like, played through a loss, but I've been so fucked in a campaign that I couldn't really have made a comeback short of 20 turns of rebuilding in a corner.
>>537758636considering in every game you can reload and save at will this unique to the warhammer series in fact if you know what you're doing in medieval 2 you can easily massacre the dumb fucking AI
Kinda fucked up that Mazdamundi is the weakest Slann lord.
>>537760094true, to respect the lore he should be able to instantly nuke entire armies because thats what we're missing in wh3, ridiculously overpowered factions that you play once
>>537756047Small family company saar, next patch next week, please understand
>>537760094But he gets SOUL QUENCH!
>>537758636Happened to me recently, actually, but it was a modded campaign in WH2.Basically I used mods to recreate the Skaven in the end times by buffing them, deleted mlst other major factions and jumped into Lustria as TehenhauinI was holding them, but then some savage orcs rolled in and it was too much.
Would the Lizardmen eat a dead Hell Pit Abomination after a battle?
>>537762850Nah eating your enemies is a greenskin/beastman/ogre/skaven
>>537708504Some people are incapable of understanding something is a tech unless it can be chosen and clicked, even if it gives almost identical factionwide buffs.
>>537642216Okay fellas, is this any good? What does it do well?It's clear to me that CA doesn't play-test campaigns. That TK skill having a 10% upkeep reduction is fucking mindboggling. Lizardmen aren't even recruiting armies. Canopic Jars are fucking busted.However, I like the new addition of Tomb King research giving you Vampiric Corruption. I'd also like for corruption to be stronger in general. Would this mod be a good fit? I've heard mixed things about it.If Warhammer 3 ends up in a poorly-balanced, buggy state I really hope mods can salvage it.
>>537763705it tends to slow the game down with military building reducing growth. Most if not all of traits are useful. "mechanics" kitbashed on every lords. It's fine for a few times
>>537763705unironic cheat mod. if in regular wh3 you're x times stronger than the ai, sfo makes you 2-4x times stronger than the ai
>>537763705the battle balance is busted, and the campaign mechanics seem like they could be interesting but I didn't play long enough with it to know because of how ass the battles feelWhat they tried to do was make the battles "lore accurate", so you get things like one good unit soloing an entire army (more than the base game anyways). Some people like this, it's a matter of preference I guess.Have faith that the golden age of modding is yet to come.
>checking out some cool looking cheat>check comments>sfo?>sfo submod>guys where is sfo compat mod?>work with sfo?Good lord these are vermin.
>>537768038mod users are fucking stupid now steam workshop made mod users complete dumbasses seriously >game gets updated>MOD STILL WORKS>PEOPLE STILL BEG "UPDATE UPDATE WHEN UPDATE GUY UPDATE PLEAS UPDATE PLEASE BE UPDATING"
>>537762850Not a lore expert but I don't think they would realistically eat something so unclean.>>537763384Eat Captives is their post-battle replenishment option. Warhammer is kind of a weirdly cannibalism-friendly setting, ogres do it and still get to be neutral and even an Order race does it.
>>537768285Fuck, the "update pls" when the author and others say that the mod still works. 99% of the time when faggots ask "update?" they didn't even check if it works. Their game isn't crashing on launch (and when it does, the pop-up tells you which mod is doing it).Most people are from and need to go back into the toilet.
>>537768038>>537768285So many modders going batshit makes more sense when you think about the dregs of humanity who harangue them every day.

There is someone on the steam forums complaining about cream breaking. Are they retarded?
>>537771638Steam forums is one of the lowest IQ places I know of.
Is Karl Franz even as powerful as the average Chaos Lord or Grail Baron? He has magic items, but what else does he have?
Last day of the saleI was thinking of getting>Kangz>Ogres & Golgfag>Warriors & Champions of Chaos>Tamurkhan>King & Warlord & MalakaiShilpill me on any other DLCs worth getting or talk me out of these ones
>>537772032Please, I beg of you, wait for cream to update. Buying dlc now might make them think you are a pirate they have beaten.
>>537771638good thing no one at TCALUK reads the Steam forums.
>>537771897Not really, hes at peak human level at best, Ghal Maraz (or Dragon Tooth normally) and The Silver Seal do the heavier lifting, Ghal Maraz being possobly the most powerful weapon in mortal hands, Dragon Tooth being a runefang with its special properties allowing it to even cut through dragon scale, and The Silver Seal which is basically anti-magic and anti-Chaos on its own and able to block fatal blows to a certain extent
>>537771897He’s good, but he doesn’t have any magic to amp him up beyond what he can carry. Arguably, a weapon like Ghal Maraz would be more useful in the hands of someone like a Grail Knight who actually has been powered up, or maybe some fucking elf who’s been autistically training with warhammers for the last thousand years.I think Karl isn’t even the strongest guy in the Empire.
>>537771638Yes, they are. CA's reaction is minor here, but Steam could outright ban their account. It probably won't happen, but it absolutely could, why risk it like a retard? It's not the first time I see absolute idiots mention it on Steam, reddit and sometimes on CA's own forums despite CA saying so many times they view and analyse everything, there's even a part on their newest streams where they show CA forums/reddit comments and answer to them, so it's no wonder CA will start taking measures. I was always buying everything so I don't have a reason to care, but pirates have only the more stupid ones amongst themselves to blame>>537772032>KangzGreat now, will get additional fixes with the next hotfix. I like them.>Ogres/Golgfag Not my cup of tea, don't like Ogres.>WoC/CoCCoC especially is almost necessary if you ever want to play a Chaos faction. WoC is lords, but they're fun lords.>TamurkhanGreat fun.>King/Warlord/MalakaiI like them. Malakai is a bit overpowered and I don't like how overtuned the current Dwarfs are, but those two bring some nice units, lords.If you don't own Chorfs, I recommend them, but in general you can use your eyes. As long as you aren't going for some unupdated, outdated race like Coast, see which race/lord you find cool visually, thematically or whatever and pick it up.
>>537773128Franz uses a fake copy in the game. The real Ghal Maraz would erase his soul if he used it, it's almost as powerful as the Widowmaker.
>>537773381>I think Karl isn’t even the strongest guy in the Empire.That's a toss up between the Reiksmarshall Kurt Helborg and the Emperors Champion Ludwig Swartzhelm.In the period of history that the Empire is based on (16th-17th century) Monarchs had largely stopped personally leading troops to prevent both personal injury and loss of reputation in case of defeat.You could always blame Wallenstein if things began to go south.
>>537774468Valten is the strongest human living in the Empire in the canon. Second in strength only to Sigmar himself.
>>537774682Forgot about him, he's kind if his own thing though.
>>537774682Too bad hes dead from RATS
>>537745109Original Valkia with hairs and no cone head.
>>537774682I always find it funny that when people say Archaon lost to Grimgor they always remove Valten from the story. Because saying Grimgor attacking Archaon from the back during his battle with Valten and Huss sounds too cringe. Valten and Huss deserve more respect. Huss literally made Archaon kneel to him.

>>537768443well game opening doesn't mean it's working, once I had a cheat that not updated was always crashing the game 5 turns in
>>537774353No he definitely can wield Ghal Maraz considering when he almost died during a fight with an Orc Warboss he channelled the Winds of Heaven before the ET lore made it clear he has the qualifications for Sigmar to take over him as a vessel
>>537778779That post states "on launch" and "they didn't even check".>>537777765https://steamcommunity.com/id/FiftyTiftyCheck it.

>>537774353>What all the emperors since Sigmar had possessed until 2512 was a replica of the original warhammer; a powerful magical weapon, blessed by the priests of the Cult of Sigmar and constructed by skilled Dwarf Runesmiths, but only an imitation. The truth of the duplicate's creation after Sigmar's disappearance had long remained one of the most tightly held state secrets of the Karaz Ankor, for it was the Dwarfs who kept the shameful secret of the warhammer's disappearance from their Human allies.(((Greatest umgi """allies""")))
>>537655959>Surely they can't hope for us to just wait up to November like this ?
>>537779227They technically never lied, that hammer is also named Ghal Maraz.Just not the Ghal Maraz.If they the hammer they would probably have given it back, it's just buried under 100s of feet of snow and rocks in Mad Dog Pass somewheres

>>537779782he was 45
>>537647268I actually like that Morgiana doesn't just talk about the Lady. She seems to try and have her own identity--example: she aids people because she wants to, not only because the Lady says so. Also, if you compare her "you seek the Lady?" vs her "you seek me?", in the former she's very neutral, in the latter she sounds playful and happy. I think it's really neat, because after you spend millennia talking for your deity, it must be hard to not lose yourself in that role. So, seeking satisfaction and purpose in small personal things is a good way to maintain yourself. You can also hear it in the tone Morgiana uses when she says "I hear the winds", or "My journey continues", and "through forest and glade". She sounds like she's enjoying those small things. Great VA and characterization.

>>537780234I agree I like all the Bretonnian LLs they all have unique quirks and character to them I really do love Bretonnia none of their LLs are unfun to play as desu I like that they made Alberic the calm and collected guy he doesn't scream much or anything he just speaks calmly
>>537780726Yeah, I really like Alberic's newfound calmness as well. We already had Repanse as the one who speaks in battlecries.
>>537780472Valten was soloing Archaon with it. Karl died to Arachon.
>>537783336>Karl died to ArchaonActually, Karl died to the Glottkin brothers after getting knocked out midair by a traitorous Harkon who turned to Khorne, which left Franz unconscious and protected by Deathclaw for a time. After Franz woke and recuperated as much as he could he rushed to Altdorf, still heavily fatigued and wounded and put up a valiant effort despite not having Ghal Maraz and losing an arm, almost outright killing Otto but missed his heart due to being delirious from bloodloss and injury, his body was then hit by the Winda of Heaven and Sigmar had been reborn in his body.

>>537790906If you mean while you don't play as them, there's Eviltide. I haven't used it, but it basically gives "evil" factions (you choose which, skaven and WoC for example can have it) the Greenskin's waaaagh army mechanic (randomly gets extra as a reinforcement). I have been tempted to try it for my next Franz campaign for maximum suffering.
>>537791181Anon you're going to be in Slaanesh refractory period when the DLC drops...
>>537758636I lost my initial stack as Khazrak before the rework
>>537791441Thanks, that might just do the trick. However I was thinking more in line of just maybe an overhaul that makes WoC specificially a bit stronger.

>>537795569I've never played warriors of chaos. Hot tips for them?
>>537795569The Dark Master beckons. Join the shadows. He is unironically by far the most fun out of those lords, and is one of my absolute favourite campaigns in WH3, so congratulations, you rolled right.
>>537795764As Be'lakor, open a portal in Albion first. Fun fact, you already have two portals, one near Mordheim, one just left of where Kairos starts in the south pole, and you can go there from Albion if you want. Just know>everyone hates you>everyone will start shit sooner or later, especially Wulfrik, maybe Cylostra, High Elves, Bretonnia, Empire, Malus>be proactive or be doomed>have fun>use daemons, he's the only WoC faction where they're always worth it, so he has the best variety by far>Nurgle daemons are the best to use in his army, especially Beasts of Nurgle early
>>537791181>>537744194I am also a collector.
>>537796104Sounds sick. I love being hated by people so I can just fuck off and do whateverAre warriors still useful in his army or do I go full daemon?And how often does the making daemon princes out of enemies play out, or should I make my generic lords into daemon princes?
>>537796329Be'lakor can do anything, but his boosts to Nurgle daemons are crazy, he gives them a shitload of melee defense. Beasts of Nurgle are dirt cheap with his -25% factionwide upkeep, and they perform great.>And how often does the making daemon princes out of enemies play out, or should I make my generic lords into daemon princes?Unless CA changed it from how it last worked, Daemon Princes from his faction mechanic are useless. They don't get the bonus traits regular daemon princes get by sacrificing levels and souls, they're not worth going after unless you get them for no additional effort spent.
>>537796790>Unless CA changed it from how it last worked, Daemon Princes from his faction mechanic are useless. They don't get the bonus traits regular daemon princes get by sacrificing levels and souls, they're not worth going after unless you get them for no additional effort spent.Kinda gay I thought that sounded like a cool mechanic, so I'll just skip doing that then I guess.
>>537796790>>537796948Wait just to clarify do princes from my own lords get the bonus traits or is it just the enemies turned into lords?
>>537797346Your lords get bonus traits whenever you change them into something else. Like if you turn a Death Sorcerer Lord into some sort of Sorcerer Lord of Nurgle or Tzeentch or Slaanesh, he will get either Death spell passive for free, or a discount for Death spells if they're still accessible. When you turn that Sorcerer Lord into a Daemon Prince, he gets a third, small trait that also gives something. In general I still prefer Chaos Lords and Sorcerer Lords over Daemon Princes with all that, they look cooler and that's what it's all aboutAnyway those DP you turn from enemy human lords/heroes with Be'lakors faction trait don't get any unique traits, or didn't when I last played Be'lakor like 6 months ago. I bet it's a simple oversight that CA would fix if enough people whined on reddit
>>537796329Demon frontlines are really fucking annoying because you will occasionally lose one which gets rid of their ranksMortals run to save themselves and the AI doesn't really chase them down to wipe them out like a player would

>>537802253Funny, it just makes me horny.
>>537642216wtf is this and why does it keep happening?
>>537802253this but with or without playing skaven
>>537802548Special building added with the update
Playing vortex (tullaris) while in the mod update waiting room and i forgot how much better this game ran
>>537802253Being constantly reminded that rats will never be real does that yes
>>537802253use clanrats like cavalry, hit and runuse more clanrats (shields)
>>537803946with their whopping 18 charge bonus?
>>537805159Not for damage just to occupyIsolated units jumped by two clanrats mean one of them is ignoring half their melee defenceGlobadiers and wolf rats love an occupied target
So I have 2 unusual locations in one province, one hashut forge and one chaos shrine which both offer buffs to recruited units but they don't stack and only the chaos shrine took effect. Apparently the one that appears later will override the older one. I was hoping I could get +20 armor on top of the +10 armor/+20% atk/+10% def. The chaos corruption does stack tho...
>>537802253Use more ranged/war machines/monsters
>>537805381this is totally retarded. shitrats only exist to hold enemies in place so you can kill them with your globes. rear charging with them won't accomplish shit.

Wait, is 6.3 live now? Did the fix the liggers issues or is CA still being incompetent as fuck and theyre still broken even on the live patch
The update ruined Tomb Kings.They're just another grossly overpowered faction that barely engages with the game now.
Why do my cities keep turning into ruins? I defeated Wintertooth at Bay of Blades and Sarl Encampment, two turns later they're both ruins? No battle, no loss, no abandonment, just "here, have some ruins where your cities were." What the hell man?

What Total War game allows me to larp as a Visigoth while I listen to these bangers? Attila?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcRTtQ9pjw4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4vE63BacGQ
Anyone playing their beta campaigns on the live patch? It's still up but I'm wondering if I should rush to finish this campaign as the best ligger Tiktaq'to.
>>537819346If I start in not-Africa I make sure to let one Tiktaq'to settlement up so I can farm his trait for increased movement range.
>>537818874Attila and I think Rome 1 barbarian invasion
>>537818874well how many TW games are there with visigoths?
>>537818874it's either Attila or BI, but if you want Pelagius specifically only Attila(Age of Charlemagne) has Asturias as a faction
>>537820224>>537820230>>537820406thought about buying Attila before, it's time, FRAWEIT
>>537820917Attila is 100% worth it at the current discount
for some reason I just can't get into the gameplay of non-order factionsI don't know why
Total War games that are well worth buying this sale:Rome 2Warhammer 1 + 2 + 3Total War games that are worth a buy during this sale if you are into the series:AttilaPharaohRome 2 is the best historical Total War and Warhammer 3 is the best fantasy Total War.
>>537821439Play Dark elves, their gameplay is just standard infantry line + ranged.
>cheats>>537821439They are fundementally different, it's the opposite for me because once your allies get strong and you can't expand naturally as order I feel directionless, but with non-order I can go in any direction I want/need to.

>>537642216Is the Tomb Kings rework borked? I am hearing mixed opinions and would be willing to wait for CA (or mods) to fix it if so.
>>537836132Kislev
>>537732097pretty much near, innit?
>>537836209It works fine but in CA tradition any “rework” at this point is just to buff the faction beyond any sort of challenge to the point where it’s just boring. You’ll be drowning in jars and money by turn 40 and it’s far too easy to expand their army cap now so you’ll be snowballing too quickly to make the campaign interesting in any way. Only good part is the Nagash books are a bit closer to your start position
>>537836209Ehh>Cum jars arent a resource anymore, you will have like 10k by turn 20>Your units still feel like shit>Only now you can recruit infinite armies from your infinite cum jars >Also you can deck yourself out in full purples by spamming items to combine from your infinite cum jarsYou arent the worst faction in the game anymore but they didnt really buff you in a fun way.

>>537840778How is a range weapon made from warp/magic any different than sorcery? You that thing Khorne hates?
>>537840778I dunno I think it's cool that a 8 foot tall superhuman in power armor can get torn to shreds by one angry retard monster with a sword.
>>537840778>Every faction needs to be exactly the same as all the other ones
>>537840778Id say its suprising that they havent made gun demons just do double dip on sales.But fantasy sold so shit they were probably concerned about melee demons sitting on the shelves
>>537841929Chaos Daemons aren't their own army anymore they are just support units found in Chaos Marine armies. Making more daemons isn't profitable.
>>537842074Well yea now.They are also in a fucked up limbo in general unless they fix them in 11th.But like 20 years ago they still didnt have plaguebearers with guns
>>537842219good daemons shouldn't have guns.

Do daemons of Gork have guns?

>>537842547>Minor Chaos gods>DaemonsHAH.
>>537842460idk hth
>>537841601Yes, thats usually how warfare is fought, anon, they use the most optimal thing, and having daemons that can teleport through rifts show up with guns would be OP
>>537842343They do in pretty much every lore section in 40k which makes sense considering they are smmoned by possessing bodies and mutating into their true form and using the weapon the body had.But they never do unless its a vehicle
>>537842460I could take a skink
>>537842636Why don't the real existent gods deserve to have multiple armies? Upset that space marines won't get full codices for each chapter anymore, and now just get supplements?

That's all the fact that every war ever been recorded has been between two humans from one planet. Warfare isn't a solved game, it's not tictactoe.
>>537843656>using different weapons and tacticsthey always used the weapons and tactics they thought best fit their circumstancesname one time an army used weapons or tactics they didn't think were their best option for any reason other than they thought it would give them some kind of different advantage
>>537843849The Gods think that melee weapons are the best weapons for any circumstance where daemons have to be deployed. Guns are for mortals.
>>537843440>Fragments of a god powered by humanity>Why would it be stronger in a setting where there are several thousand planets populated by Billions+ each compared to a setting where there is one planet populated by a few million people.All Daemons are less than half the points they are in fantasy anyway.
A simple lesson for retards about how war is fought>nips on their island fought wars without shields and used katanas, yaris and horseback>the most dominant at the time based solely off horseback warfare (aka the strongest tactic) was the Takeda>civilized Christian cultures came and taught the nips what gunpowder was, sold them to Nobunaga who was a westaboo>time for war came between the Oda and Takeda>Takeda thought their legendary cavalry would surely win>Oda were armed with guns>complete fucking massacre for the Takeda>eventually every1 in the land adopted guns, warfare changed primarily to guns

The Deamon gods want worship. All else being equal, what god are you worshipping more, the one who sends "angels" that charge the enemy, distracting your enemy, breaking their formations, allowing you to fight from the (relatively) safer ranged position. OR the god who sends you an angel that sits behind you and demands you die to protect it?
