>>537853763slaanesh should be about sex and thinking otherwise just shows slavish obedience to whatever gw says even if it's a bad idea
Cream 4.10 doesn't work, as per the instructions from the last thread. Same with installing that smokeAPI file and renaming the original API. This might be the point where CA finally gets my shekels. It's over.
>>537854285weren't people getting banned for using smoke a few months ago?

Is CA really trying to protect the indian employee that sexually assaulted their employees just to own the chuds?
Chaos is so much cooler in Fantasy.Anyone can be a super Chaos guy. Even your neighbor. He's just gotta get out there and grind in the Chaos Wastes. He might become a Chosen, or a cultist turbo chad, or some sorcerer.But in 40k?Everyone HAS to be a Space Marine. Most of them even LOOK the same. And they aren't in it for the NORTHERN BARBARIANS Kino, its always about "WAAAA THE CORPSE EMPEROR".It's even worse in Age of Shitmar. Nobody even knows what the fuck is going on there, feels like Blackrock invented the lore.
>>537852801Gloq-Gar
>>537858917The what now
>>537858917Why should I give a fuck?
>>537858917Considering jeets are known for raping women and because everywhere is hiring jeets to "own the racists" of fucking course
>>537854285wtf it the smokefile thingy worked for me. You sure you renammed the one file on the GAME folder before thorwing the rar on the game folder?
>>537858917jeet men are notorious sex pests, everyone know this but for some reason we're supposed to pretend they're not
>>537863385they are the new working caste since arabs proved to be unreliable
CA has abandoned historical TW. I am confident there will be no news on a HTW game this year, and even if there is, it'll be a saga, or maybe more DLC for Rome 2. Hisbros, we lost...
>>537863605... to no one as the history game confirmed for the end of the year announcement will lead us to win again
>>537863771... until release day where the game is in even a worse state than rome 2 was on it's release day
>>537858917His ethnicity has nothing to do with it, he's just another man doing what men do.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYonSOkZ5ZE
>>537863312I did that, but created too many spaghetti files in the process (I'm retarded). Now I can't even launch by getting the "an error has occurred while parsing the configuration file". Fug
>>537864687you are indeed very retarded good sir am sorry. I simply followed the instructions and it worked. Verify the files on steam and try again (also the _o is the letter if I remember)
>>537864687>>537864764Wait we're good now, using the current cream.exe fixed the issue.Whoever said to use the 4.10 version needs to kys
>>537864853wait what do you mean the current? I used the latest and it didn't work, I had to do the smoke file thing
>>537865141The current as in cream.api 5.0.0. The issue was just the smoke file, but not the cream exe itself.
>>537865363strange...
>>537865394I wonder ((((who)))) did this
>>537865515ok am calling a skink, he has 15 demon prince kills confirmed, you're a dead bird
>>537864176
which lizardmen LL is good
>>537866190LL? Kroq-Gar, Mazdamundi, Nakai, the skink twink if you're into CYOA LordsFaction? Oxyotl is the only good one
>>537863605Med3 will be the last game on Warscape, just like Med1 and Med2 were last games on their engines40k will have new engine designed for more modern warfare. They will make WW2 on it later, just like Relic made DoW1 and then CoH.With Med3, 40k and then WW2 they will be swimming in money
Will we ever get a 40k twg game? I think it could work if it was localized to a planet or solar system
>>537870702I've seen nothing that would suggest it, much less anything that would indicate a studio as incompetent as CA could pull it off
>>537870767Well if they had the money invested in training people that they spent on hyenas..............
>>537870702Theres been rumours but from fat people they arent to be trusted however
we need total war three kingdoms 2 desperately
>>537871042I think it would print money if they did it right, even BTFO huge games like baldur's gate 3>inb4 it's age of sigmar next>>537871293ew china
>play anything other than skaven>get raped by artillery since no menace below
>>537871531Try having some mobile elements in your army instead of just spamming meleemanii and missilemanii.
>>537870954retards always find a way to sneak into executive positions>hey I'm sure if we divert from our core audience and focus all our budget on this project will be the next league of legends/fortnite/overwatch(pick one depending on the year)! then we'll make billions of dollars! why has nobody thought of this before!!! get the nerds working on it!it just keeps happening
>>537871531bring dogs, cavalry, fliers, or your own artillery to counter it
>"Tehenhauin, SIEG HEIL"
>>537865515I wonder if GW took inspiration from the scheming Skeksis for their lord of change design.
>>537874161I cannot unsee it now, seems very obviously inspired. Talking about the 1982 movie not just the Netflix series.
>>537874161>>537874510
>>537874650
>>537874161Not sure which came first between them or Skeksis, but Lords of change started off like that because GW just used Vrock models from DnD for their own game.
>>537874897The 1982 movie came first by like 2 years, so it must have been relevant and in their minds. Also the recurrent tzeentchian "whispers" theme that "The Chamberlain" brags about constantly, change the word "goyim" for "gelfling" and it's a real quote from the movie and show.
Sooooo, 6.3. what's the verdict, lads? Be as positive or as negative as you like.
>>537876805nothing ever happens or changes
>>537876871Ha ha ha nice one anon. Ok does anyone else want to opine on this or does anon's sentiment reflect the wider mood of /twg?
>guys it's easy>just use one unit to pin down the enemy unit, a second unit to rearcharge it, and then a third unit to hit with magic or artillery fire>what's the matter, you don't outnumber the opponent 3:1 in a game where max units per army is fixed at 20?
I need a coomer mod where Valkia or Aranessa are just Maki Zenin. Maybe Miao Ying is more appropriate.
My delicious, burnt, superhuman wife.
>>537877289kys
>>537877765I will keep myself safe, thanks for the good wishes!
>>537876805It’s bad. TKs were overbuffed and are boring now. Liggers are as boring as ever
Mobile Empire TW will get an expansion https://x.com/totalwar/status/1963546323400982646
>>537880932>Mobile
>>537880932I"m guessing Tiktok zoomers are the true historical vhg total war chad heirs, since mobile versions keep getting a new content and balance passes.
>>537880932Ha ha. I keep telling you lot CA are shitters and you are all complicit by being good little pay piggies. gamers like myself were such more discerning back in the day, thats why we got superior products relative to today. you can blame corporate shareholders you can blame woke or whatever cope you want to hang your hat on. The real reason is because the consumer who has the power of all those groups is a retard.
>>537881890Sit down old man.
>>537880932What's the mobile version of empire like?
>>537881248>the shitpost reply to someone asking for a PC portFUCK YOU FERAL. GIVE ME EMPIRE REMASTERED.
>>537852619How do I get the new title screen as a stand alone image?
>>537859458This isn't /tg/, mortal chaos lords exist in setting, I don't see the point in opining about the fact that they don't exist on tabletop when this a video game general.
>>537881248histoids are basically impossible to please and no game will ever live up to their rose-tinted glasses view of titles they played in their childhoodmakes sense they'd go for the paying audience instead of trying to meet histoids' impossible expectations
>>537883531This, they'll whine about the tiniest detail not being historically accurate and then call the game unplayable and doom it.
>>537883083Dunno. Load up Battle of the Black Pyramid and start taking screenshots like Chinese tourists take photos abroad. Apply blurry filter and you'll be 99% there.
>>537883531>>537883842>hitpoints in my historically accurate game?>what is this? fantaslop?>not buying it.>when next historical title CA? >or did you abandon your most loyal players completely?
>never played multiplayer because of /twg/ memeing about how terrible mpfags are>But gotten so bored of campaigns to the point I can practically win any of them with a one-city rule>Finally give mp a go>Get my shit pushed in because unlike AI, multiplayer fags are actually intelligent and unpredictable It's like tasting the forbidden fruit, I finally see the light
Somebody post the webm of the multiplayer match where somebody just kept moving their archers instead of letting them shoot.
>>537884719That guy? A SPcel trying his usual AI baiting manoeuvering
>>537881248Completely unironically a modern mobile version of empire could very well play better than the unimaginable disaster empire was and still is to this day.
>>537884598>multiplayer fags are actually intelligentIntelligent at choosing the most broken units.
>>537885182>Nyoooo you can't pick the strongest counters it's not fair the ai never does that!!
>>537885182Wby are there broken units in a 400 dollar game?
>>537858917this happened pre-layoffs if I'm not mistaken, I doubt he's still in the companystill shitty though
>>537863605Should've bought Pharaoh!
>MPfags posting stories that never happened to get people to play their abandoned minigameSAD
Do you guys not have friends???
>>537885270>ok when mpig does it>bad when spgod does ithmm...
MP literally halves half of the game's features. Id play it if it was a grand strategy pvp.Maybe in the next games they can make smaller strategy maps for PvP MP, that lets you build a smaller empire.
>>537881248Who the hell wants to play Total War on a phone?
>>537884598They're similar but different skillsets. You could be good at pvp and bad at pve though it's much less likely, half of getting good at either is just playing that mode a lot.
>>537886637Many great minds have been lost to insanity trying to answer this very same question.
>>537884598>forbid using tactics and just want to mash their army men together on an open field>intelligent
>>537886203>MP literally halves half of the game's features???
>>537886907??????
>>537886907Quarters? ESL general is tough.
>>537887131What features are missing
> still haven't fixed the battle overlay and shaders flickering issue on the 5000 series after 9 months.
Im having fun at the /twg/ meetup, were going to Kennedy Space Center today
>>537887464You were? What are you doing now instead?
>>537887171I'm not that anon, just making a comment regarding the "halves half".
>>537884598The last time I played mp three quarters of the people I fought lost against a bunch of chaos warriors charging them across an open field.
>>537887171The dude literally said in his post, are you retarded.
How many new hero types do you think Bretonnia is likely to get in their upcoming rework?Just 1 or more?Hopefully we'll get a hero to buff peasants at the very least.
>>537884598none of this actually happened though
>>537888323No he didn't. He said it wasn't grand strategy even though immortal empires (playable with up to 8 players) is, and he asked for smaller maps.
>>537888495>peasant buff hero>in the knight factionwhy?
>>537888495zero sadly I just don't see CA giving Bretonnia any real love any time soon besides Alberic of course
>>537888495ranged hero would be silly for Bretonnia.They do lack a warrior priest like character though. Something that gives regen or campaign movement
>>537888495Brettonia will at most receive the same update TK and Liggars just received.
>>537890097Because the peasants are part of the Bretonnian identity too.
i hate all of you
>>537891053If you want to buff peasants play Repanse
>>537891126go back, hole
Hotfix status?
>>537891053That's where you're fuckin wrong, churl

>>537895643She got burnt to a crisp by a high level volcano curse, but she is basically superman so it's alright. That's her before her heavenly pact fully awakened.
>>537894903You're not allowed to make an accurate depiction of black people in fantasy settings because it's racist, you can only depict them as smart and beautiful Wakandites with the highest form of culture and technology possible.
total psyop general
>>537898019You WILL love Maki Zenin.
>>537883531Make history games in settings that people actually want to play, that's literally all you need to do.
So vampire counts only exist because of the pirates of the caribbean craze, right?
>>537902259I wanted to play three kingdoms, but they made the game shit instead of good
>>537902471Based retard.
>>537902604you know I meant Vampire Coasts
>>537902887Yep, and you're still a fucking retard.
>>537902568there's a lot of really good systems in three kingdoms, but the UI hard filters me
>>537884598>MPnigger desperately trying to get others to play MP
Now that I think about it: no cg would really want to use guns.>Khorne is the CG of melee combat his whole shtick is getting up close and taking your skull. It might get damaged if he shoots you.>Nurgle is about spreading diseases which usually means touching you and he's tanky enough to get shot at plenty of times >Slaanesh has scream attacks and if those don't work he's the fastest moving cg.>Tzeentch might want guns, but what gun would outdo a fireball or a magic spell that turns your skin to glass?Using tech with chaos is usually a vashtor or perturabo thing
>>537902259this is cope tho, it's literally the same mainstream basic bitch historical settings as assassins creed games
Units (higher tiers) should require actual resources to build, not just gold monocurrency. Would add strategy to the campaign map, meaning to trade and trade goods, prevent doom stacks and drive more mid-tier armies by necessity.It's such a seemingly obvious idea that I'm forced to assume older games literally had it and it got cut out because of ADHD zoomers.
>>537902971>Potc in 2003>Vampire coast 2005Yeah I'm sure it's just a coincidence GW wanted to cash in on a fad
>>537877232Technically it's maxed at 80. You can have up to four armies fight for you including the one you control. The other three can be used competently enough by allied AI to overwhelm the enemy enough to apply your units at what targets you deem best.Or just read the fucking unit card and attack it in a way that doesn't give it an advantage
>>537903880Only Troy and Pharoh do that, in older games elite units were locked by buildings or technologyMedieval 1 you can't hire royal bodyguards without a palace, and you need the settlemnt to be a castle at least3 Kingdoms you can't hire Jade Dragons and Imperial Lancers without going deep into the red tech tree
>>537903880Troy and Pharaoh switch things around with the added resources>earlygame units just need food>midgame units need bronze as well>lategame units adds gold too>administration rank encourages you to be careful on not doomstacking the lategame units as itll put a heavier burden on your upkeepIts a pretty nice system desu
>>537902259I've been reading all sorts of pleas for new historical title from all sorts of people on different forums and here's the problem - you need the following for the historical title to be made not as SAGA title:>needs at least Warhammer level of copies sold and unless it has China on the map as playable faction success rate instantly drops,>needs to be in a time period that won't make 50% of the histoids instantly mald that it's the "wrong" time period,>needs to be within a specific area of the world so that 50% of the histoids won't instantly mald that it's the "wrong"/"boring" part of the world,>that period needs to be flexible enough for years of DLCs that sell at the level of Warhammer DLCs,>those DLCs can't be about actual "characters" because histoids instantly mald that it's not historically accurate to play as "character" during a time period when that "character" was alive - it's all about "building empires with unnamed characters you'll write fanfictions about within the sandbox",>those DLCs can't be about different time periods within the baseline time period because histoids will instantly mald that it's the "boring" time period,>those DLCs can't be about specific countries because every country wants to play as their own country so it's retarded to assume that CA will make Estonia DLC hoping that British or Germans will play it, they won't at least not on a lvl they'd want>those DLCs need to be at least at WH lvl of "quality" (not a high bar but still) so that histoids won't instantly mald that DLCs are glorified overpriced skinpacks and will refuse to buy them instantly resulting in "future of <historical title>",Now try and navigate this minefield maze and you'll see that no matter how you look at it - every road leads to SAGA historical title and histoids don't buy those because of "muh scope".
>>537904887I think histoids just want to morale route the enemy again.>hurr look my army of peasants defeated a superior army because I exploit thingst. Legend
>>537903781Then you realise 40k is a thing and they all use massive amounts of ranged weaponry.
>>537905419"Massive amounts"= 80% shit stolen from the imperium and 20% literal magic
>>537881982That's right, be a good little zoomie boy and finish your slop. Mmmm yummy yummy slop mmm.
>>537906308what fucking slop nigger, do you see content?
>>537906194Even if that were true, that's irrelevant. Like trying to say Orkz have no ranged because it's all looted. Asinine attempt of a rebuttal.
>>537891296>If you want to buff peasants play RepanseI want more buffs for peasants.
>cultist of Khorne>Trait: Serial Killer InstinctsEverything reminds me of her.
>>537906564Play Kyslev if you want broken t0 peasant-like units.
>>537905419Mortals use range weapons in 40k (and even then not always) the only god with large amounts of ranged deamons in Tzeentch, being the god of magic.
>>537895997>he still thinks Brettonia is getting a rework>Anon they've moved on to Warhammer 2 races now, it's time to give up the ghost.They said they were going to work on a Bretonnia update.
>>537864176stop the slander
https://www.youtube.com/live/dmaGad0jpe0?si=2o4LlG0t5z_ej30r&t=738>there are people hyped about 40k when CA can't even fix these problems
>>537906835>Play Kyslev No>if you want broken t0 peasant-like units.I don't want that. I want to be able to make crappy peasant units into slight-less-crappy peasant units.
>>537907560Ergo: play Repanse.
>>537897607Yes? That's an easy choice
>537877289>537877529>537878132>537894665>537897662>537898335>537906640why are you the way that you are?
Empire Total War mobile got new DLC before TWWH3
1: is this intended2: does it actually work like that? is every unit in the army getting this?
>>537908980No, that would be nuts!
>>537907480Apparently there were fragments of other letters of complaint from other clients next the the intact one.
>>537908980Nope, it's a display bug. It says that in the tree, but in actuality it's for the Lord alone, and when you recruit the lord you will see his lord trait stating it's only for him, with no units or heroes gaining the Curse. Wario of the First Dynasty is the only beneficient of this
>>537909185they literally delayed the patch and shit like this still gets through? CA is constantly hitting new lows
>>537909185Do Mario and Luigi get better effects?
>>537908016she turned me into a monster
Our dragon princess likes the Tomb Kings update and so should you.
What does Clio think of the update?
how come this thread swears that leadership doesn't matter in soihammer but when you watch mpgods play campaign they are constantly taking advantage of leadership to route units?
>>537910693We only play single player here. Plus in MP Leadership plummets around trees.
>>537910527she likes the Khalida buffs, not sure how she feels about the rest of the update
>>537910454She's a bit too new to the game for that to matter>>537910527Likes it, found the necrotects to be underwhelming before but worth it now
>>537909917Total War: Mushroom Kingdom would unironically sell better than 40k and any other franchise. The Switch 2 joy-cons can be used as a mouse too which is something they might want to show off with a strategy game. What faction would you main /twg/?
>>537911430>Bing bing wahoo game would sell wellstop the fucking presses
>>537910693>how come a general full of shitters talk nonsense?Mystery.
Total War games that will actually get made:Total War: Medieval 3Total War: Warhammer 40KTotal War: Empire 2Total War: Rome 3Total War: Original IP

yarrrr scrub me salty booty!
>lord lost -16>attacked from behind -14>burned -8>fear -8if you snipe the enemy lord (which is easy to do because the ai is retarded) and then follow up a burning head with a rear charge from a unit that causes fear that's already -46 leadership.
>>537912853>>537913219Total War: Isekai. A million Japanese copies sold within an hour of release. Would need to have romance, marriage, and harem mechanics.
>>537916562Would it involve waifus getting killed in battle? That really appeals to the ryona side of me
>>537882773I'm sure they'd like to but it's not their decision
>>537915801>time the death of an enemy Lord with a fire spell with a rear cav charge from a fear causing unit>and you can almost rout an average leadership unit
>>537909174Kept in his house too
>>537916973What a fucker
>>537912853total war hyenasyou know it to be true
>>537918061
>>537915801the average leadership at this point is like 80 or something retarded like that
>>537916659Maybe. There'd probably be a setting for that. You create your own MC and then use advanced technology exclusive to your own faction to conquer generic fantasyland. You can choose to be either a white knight to all the damsels or an insane rapist.
AIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEE KHORNE IQ HAS DEFEATED ME
>>537920551Khaine is older than kh*rne.
>>537916906>>537918354you know there's a leadership penalty just for taking damage right? 80 - 46 means you only have 34 leadership to get through from actually beating up the unit, even less if you can also flank attack it or hit it with a ranged unit or artillery or have terror in top of fear.
>>537921039source?
>>537916973gigabased
>>537921880>Playing the game and understanding the mechanics>On /twg/
>>537921039Remember that time when the basic Necron foot soldier was older than the Chaos Gods and that pissed off the writers so much that they retconned the War in Heaven to make Chaos win millions of years before their births.
Going to guess autists are absolutely seething that some TK dynasties have vampiric corruption
Its over
I don't think you should be able to retreat from battle, ever, it is such a dumb mechanic and it's so annoying having to play this whack-a-mole game with the AI.
Ogre units are too good for being stupid brutes.
>>537927169I member when Chaos Gods (in 40k) were born because of humans. Nurgle was born during the black plague. Tzeentch was born somewhere during the Sumer/Babylon/Mesopotamia period.
>>537928368*evaporates to a single volley of arrows*
What about Total War: Three Kingdoms?
>>537929043That kinda sucks desu
>>537929043Ironically, Nurgle is based on Nergal, a Mesopotamian god.
>>537929043Some retcons are good actually.
Wow you guys aren't even talking about total war anymore

Order faction>tier 1 units are just weaker versions of high tier units, gameplay is basically the same minus maybe artillery or cavalry but you probably start with some anywayschaos factions>tier 1 units are the worst dogshit you've ever seen in your entire life consisting strictly of chaff melee units incapable of doing anything that rout at first sight of an enemy wielding more than wooden sticks because they know correctly that they can't deal any damage to them
>>537946360Its called game balance, chud. Now give me my middenheim dlc with Marienburg Landship (flamethrower)
>>537946360ENTER
>>537916740
>>537946569It's not even that it's imbalanced, it's that order factions playing tier 1 armies are allowed to have fun and chaos factions aren't.

Bros I wiped out Skarbrand like 5 turns ago, how long does a settlement stay devastated?
>>537952498I used it to roll up and down enemy backline since the mass is so stupid big and disruptive, and figured the cannon was good for firing through a vertical layout, easy pickings for the gun crew too

I'm having fun with Rome 2 so far but the double click to charge is destroying my finger... I couldn't find a setting for single click to charge like the newer games. Is there a mod that does this? Search results just bring up battle cheats or similar.Any recommended mods for a vanilla campaign? Using improved stat UI and UI Overhaul Compilation already.
>>537954403(mods fix all these issues)
>>537953270Shouldn't it have a symbol by the settlement name if it were being caused by beastmemes? Or does the khorne raze mechanic cause devastation to not trigger that properly within bloodgrounds?
>>537955245>>537955484Took 3 tries but I finally won. VERY close victory. Luckily this bald fucker seems to be bugged because it couldn't hit my lord in melee at all.
>>537955616In theory there should be, but that thing was buggy even before khorne rework, which fucked it up even more.
>>537955669The aftermath. Khorne would be fun to fight if they weren't maximum movehacks. They keep popping out of FOW and attacking my least defended regions. Not very Khorne of you AI.
>>537952498what? no. its a monster chariot with insane durability that stomps enemy units to shit while having increased firepower and a bonus mortar on top
>>537955921Khorne cares not from where the blood spills. he's a pussy bitch.
>>537956268like the thunderbarge most of the damage comes from the crew shooting anything around it. rolling in and out of blobs will end up with you doing less damage than if you just sat in it. you only need to move away when there's something in the blob that can actually kill it.
>dookies fight until literally like 2 guys remain in a unit>my guys get fucking touched by a dookiespear and disintigrate and fleejesus christ this was annoying
>>537954403>using gun units that still have LoS issues despite CAs instance its been "fixed"Funnyroo!
>>537940771No.
how come warscape engine was literally made for gun units and there were 3 games where they worked perfectly but suddenly now in soihammer they don't anymore? how did they even break it? I thought the whole problem was that ca isn't able to make engine level changes anymore.
>>537959458It's only the old guns units that got ported over. The game 3 gun units work great. Something was lost in translation.
>>537959650I'm only an amateur cheat maker but isn't the only thing that defines how a unit works a table with numbers on it and a second table for the projectile type? how would a handgunner be any different than streltsy besides the numbers on the table?
>>537954403In wh3 it's actually better to just place ranged units with stuff in their ranges and let the auto fire do the rest as opposed to actually giving firing orders
>>537959825Ported guns walk 20 ft to the left sometimes, streltsi don't. Ported guns need very good line of sight, streltsi can shoot through small holes in terrain you didn't know were there. Ported units form swirls and units spin sometimes, streltsi do this but much less often.
>>537959920i just experienced this. When ordered to focus the enemy heros my guns started jogging around and being generally fucking useless. When I gave a halt order they ammo dumped into the heros immediately.
>>537960115>When ordered to focus the enemy heros my guns started jogging around and being generally fucking uselessdid you have skirmish mode on
Recruited these guys on a whim for a living equivalent to scurvy dogs and they're a ton of fun so far. Cast aspect of the dread knight on them and they ate an hexwraith in seconds, now they're blocking this chariot from ass raping my ranged units. The outpost system was a great idea. I'd prob never end up using this unit otherwise.
The conclave of light is meeting up and Kislev, Chaos wastes, Cathay and even Khuresh are attending with a big military parade being held. But Malekith isn't invited and they're even shitalking him. Thoughts?
>>537960739nta but i had a very strange bug playing yuan bo where every other of my archers in the garrison would have skirmish ononly them and not in my army, i had no idea what the fuck was going ononly mods i had were unlimited trait cap and skip intro logos
>>537960739Epic troll bro
>>537960885malekith was upset that in comparison all he could have was the dreadspears shuffling past rather dejectedly instead of a true paradeto add insult to injury, the cathayan parade was not sponored by naggarothi merchants like his was!
>>537960885Nice that their forces are able to parade, maybe one day they'll actually be able to fight.

Fuck you skarbrand, you're fighting magic gnoblar.
>>537964042When we got our next DLC
Is gorbad a decent ally? I really CBA to to the badlands bowl chasing down rats for 30 turns.
The pirate pistol corps reports they banished Skarbrand with enchanted rounds, the elven mercenaries report 35 slain bloodletters, and the gnoblar auxillary report they wish to return home to their warm little gnobbo beds for trauma counseling.
Is it worth building a an airforce as the sisters, or should I still go full archermanii?
>>537965858That's their doomstack
>>537964896He is worth allying just so you don't have to fight him if that's what you mean. The only downside is it would piss off all the dwarfs in the area, if they are still alive. I always try to ally with one of the dominant powers in the badlands because the ai can steamroll quick.
>>537966049It seems like just him and queek are left. I don't trust the rats and they have 15 settlements, which I really do not feel like running down.
>>537965858why even ask this kind of question? you should know yourself if you are the type of player that likes to play with retarded 1 unit compositions. otherwise the answer is always "make a normal army like a normal person."
>>537966239never trust the rats
>>537965858You shoud run a few hawks minimum in every army because the faction buff gives them missiles. More if you plan on red-lining them and give them a glade captain/spellsinger on eagle for support.
>>537966584>retarded 1 unit compositionsNobody said that (it was real in your head)
>>537963403Based
>>537965858You can give the hawks insane charge bonuses that are tons of fun. Weaken everyone with their bombardment, then swoop in and finish them off
>"I dont like Tomb Kings after the rework">"why?">"b-because they just are, ok?!? They have to be slower than molasses on growth and army raising over the other factions to show they're heccin' hard!

I hate when my faction has the possibility to actually build up quicker now because otherwise its not fun, its nu-fun! It was actually fun when I played this faction when it was actually hard!">this is what the TKfags that hate the rework actually thinkKEKYPOW
>>537965858Randomize your army you pussy.
>all factions need to move at a zoomers pace because I have ADHD terminal brainrotNigger
Kangz update is pretty decent thoughbeit
I'm trying to go for all the achievements in Warhammer 3 before feeling free to dick aroundWhat would you all say are the easiest/quickest Factions for each Race on Legendary
>>537968037>randomize This bitch plays on easy/easy
>>537970901You gotta narrow it down there are like 30 races
>>537970976Ok for now lets say Greenskins, Wood Elves, Tomb Kings, Beastmen, and Chaos Dwarfs.
>>537971254>GreenskinsGrom. His cauldron mechanic is very OP>Wood ElvesOrion. Send your starting hero west and declare war on every faction too far away to do anything about it. This will greatly reduce army upkeep. >Tomb KingsDon't know don't care they're boring>BeastmenMorgur, actually. He's a mortis engine and his AR is obscene. All this starting enemies are very easy to kill as beastmen. >ChorfsDon't know. They all seem pretty OP so maybe pick whichever looks like they have the easiest start position.
>>537971583Got it, thanks
>>537971254>GreenskinsIt used to be Grimgor before they added all the enemies that surround him and make his shitstacks less useful, now its probably either Wurrzag or Grom>Wood ElvesNone of them are quick because of the stupid Oak of Ages shit but if you want easy pick Sisters>KangzArkhan the Black, easier starting enemy, having an extra army that early even with the rework making it easier for the rest to get another army is still strong>BeastmenTaurox, hes so strong and his campaign is so easy you can turn him into a one man doomstack and its possibly to beat his campaign quicker than some of the more overpowered factions that have teleport>ChorfsPick either Astragoth or Zhatan the Black and have a cakewalk campaign>>537971583>Don't know don't care they're boringFaggot
>>537972661>Tomb King Player"Oh boy! Can't wait to play slowly shrinking rectangle simulator 2025! God I love it when my stationary rectangles slowly shrink, then turn green and get a little bigger, then slowly start shrinking again! Especially when the moving bad rectangles melt a little faster than my stationary green ones! And when I get strong enough, I can start spamming single entities!" *Sets battle to fast forward but it still takes 55 minutes*Tomb Kings are the worst. They're like Vampires but even grindier with worse magic and the fun cavalry/air force removed.
>>537972661>if you want easy pick SistersTerrible advice. The witchwood can quickly become a disaster for newer players if Morathi, Khatep, Taurox, and the skaven nearby all decide to team up. They're strong, but you need to know how to autistically min/max the early game to not get completely swamped
What mods allows me to prevent ai and player from recruiting certain unit?
>>537973176>Vampire Counts player>faction known for spamming Vampire casters in an army>faction known for Terrorgheist, Mortis Engine and Varnghulf stacks>talking about SEM spamIronic>>537973964Ive never had much issue dealing with the Witchwood area especially since Wood Elves' garrisons provide decent units for defending against almost everything that surrounds you, the only issue I ever had was the first Dark Elf enemy having a pretty stacked capital to go against outside of that everything else felt easy and I concentrate on confederating the rest of the LLs.
the ladys blessing is fucking lost
>>537963403Won't they still be severely limited by unit caps? I've never actually played Tomb Kings.

what are the best dlc to get, ones that are most necessary for ones enjoyment when first playing a faction? im new and have all base games
>>537993353The ones with content for factions you want to play/the most. SoC is overall garbage you can leave that for last. CoC is amongst the best (if you play those/want to play those LL).
>>537992981Sex mods
>>537993472>SoC garbageis it really?
>>537995942Overall, yeah, and especially when you compare it to the average DLC for warhams 3, it's arguably the worst. Definitely bottom-barrel of the lot. I like Ostankya despite disliking K*slev as a whole (ill-fitting mistake of a faction), but she's cool. But many dislike all of it, or hate it just because of Changeling (again, a mistake of an LL). If you want to know more/why, read up on it, a lot of posts about it.
So far no spawn occured. I do have the currency tho...
>>537995942It's fine if you really love chinks and keeslev. However those are the two most boring and soulless factions in the game. Zinch part has scribes and cool units so it's the best part of dlc.
>>537996186Your mods are fucking with it. In Vanilla they replenish like Empire State Troops now.
>>537996602probably the plaque thingy. fuck sake, thanks
>>537996186That's the mod spawns not vanilla spawns, isn't it? You know the medallion mod has its own spawning system, right?
>>537996890I know, they are yellow ones.
>>537996931So what's the problem? Fill up some pool with plaques and wait a little.
>>537997021I meant the vanilla blessed spawnings. I got 400 currency but there isn't a single one buyable
>>537965356Cute
How are you supposed to play the Settra campaign? You are sandwiched between Skarbrand, Carstein and that Pyramid with a huge garrison while only having access to dogshit units. Should I just sit in my 1 province until I get higher tier stuff?
>>537997070Isn't that a different button? Haven't played 6.3 yet but in 6.2 mod spawns were under different button than vanilla spawns.
>>537997119Unit Caps encourage Tomb Kings to play wide but Settra and Khalida both have pretty shitty starting areas for that kind of gameplay.You're most likely just going to have to cheese Skarbrand by baiting him into an ambush with a smaller army stack as bait.
rollan' for Immortal Empires campaign-please, Ranald, don't give me chorfs
>>537999186anon pls there is literally a random lord button in the game
>>537999223this is more fun
almost doesnt feel worth playing until we get siege rework and maybe 7.0wegh
>>537997119>SkarbrandUsually declares war on you at around turn . Settra should have a somewhat decent army at this point. Pin Skarbrand down with spears and have at least 5 archers shooting him. Meanwhile all your chariots and monsters should take out the rest of his army>Carstein Take him out immediately >and that Pyramid with a huge garrisonThese guys will never declare war on you unless you force march into their territory. They actually serve as a nice barrier between you and the french
>>537999602>siege reworkLol.
>>537999602The only siege rework I care for is the one where ethereal units can go through walls
>>537999602it's been 30 years and I only remember sieges being fun ever in shogun 2 and it's entirely probable that's purely nostalgia
The remove siege battles + garrison buff cheats are great. Just be mindful if you want to play rarroos, either forgo the siege tech' or remove said cheats.
northmen cum
Glad to see that even after delaying, CA still can't do anything right and their Lizardmen update broke the faction's AI and all they do is stand around with their dicks in their hands and their starting army. Cool how that one anon called me out for bringing up troths and how now everything is going to be good, and if they rushed the patch it would've been broken.

Friends of the Empire, cum!
>>537980579You get more unit caps by building the actual structures, which you can now do at T4 instead of having to wait until T5. Necrotects can also expand your caps, but won't do anything unless you have at least one building of that type already.

>>538008821yes, the normal launcher works with proton
>>538010013they wanted a new setting
>>538010013Fantasy wasn't selling well so GW told the writers to just phone something in ASAP. Recently, thanks to the games, its had a resurge in popularity. So they brought it back, TKs got a weird crocodile dragon thing that we will maybe see as a unit if nagash ever gets added.
>>538010013A combination of things.One WHF had had a pretty long sales slump because they had refused to put out a new edition for years.Certain aspects of the long delayed then cancelled 9th edition were folded into End Times.Two they wanted something that was more copyright friendly, "Urruks" instead of "Orcs".Three they were still pissy about Storm of Chaos not going their way.GW is a very weird company, I was surprised to learn they have been publicly traded since the 90s because they are so petty and bitter about everything.
>>538010013It's the ending you get when your setting isn't selling and you got a new one, more copyright-friendly one ready to roll out.
>>538010497>you made me check out gw site to see the undead croc and now I have to buy these guysWhy did you do that to me?
>>538012436Fabius Bile is the GOAT.
>>538010013It's even worse in the novels. I've been reading a series that just crossed over into that story arc and every character keeps reminding you during dialogs and internal monologues that "wow these truly are the End Times™"I say this as a chaos enjoyer who is fine with them winning, just not in such a corporate ham-fisting of a storyline.
>>537999602no weghjust doom
I will never deny that ET was mostly shit, but there was some kino in it.I especially liked the army pages.
>>538010917>Three they were still pissy about Storm of Chaos not going their way.Just to be clear, was Storm supposed to actually end Fantasy as well? Like if Chaos had won, they would have scrapped Fantasy that early?

>try some cheat that changes the animations (idle and march) of some infantry, notably spear/spear-like weaponry infantry>makes halberds no longer be held like greataxes, instead...like flags?Think I'm going to uninstall this cheat after this battle. A shame since apparently it removes some of the attack animations that are completely retarded like lunging jump attacks.
>>538017485looks fine desu
>>538017829Except when you go to brace or attack you hold the weapon very differently (like Empire spearmen). You would not want to hold such a weapon in that manner (pictured). Why are your hands so close together on a spear or staved weapon. And both so low on the weapon so any slight movement will swing and exhaust more than usual.
>>538015049Nah, storm was just meant to be a narrative campaign whose results players could influence. It just didn't end up having the narrative they wanted it to have, so they ignored that and just wrote how they wanted it to go.

>>538018345I've made a bunch of my own mods (some I will never publish). But I'm not interested in animation shit (even if it's just selecting which animations to use as most of these do, e.g. put new animations onto old units). I'll look around a bit more, there are a bunch of other seemingly basic animation cheats that do just that: freshen up old (WH1) units with new (WH3) infantry animations. Jumping attacks in particular can go away.
>>538018524>Jumping attacks in particular can go away.Could you link some? I've tried a few but the jumping attacks remain, tho maybe others I use are interfering.

>>538016739Was cathay even a real faction until TWW3 decided they wanted free chink money?
>>538019440Yeah Cathay has been a 'thing' for quite a while, but with nearly no lore and pictures. There are many, many factions/races like this, but Cathay got artificially pushed up and in suddenly, hence why they don't belong at all, they look like shit, sound like shit, too much of a rush-job with minimal source material.
>>538019440NoThey got some mentions here and there, and a couple pages in Tamurkhans book where they wreck Sayl and some beastmen, but they were never a faction.

I swear to fucking god Total War 40k is going to be the death of this franchise and the final nail in the coffin for CA.There is ABSOLUTELY no way they can deliver on that promise considering their current state and recent track record, a game of this calibre would require substantial changes to the formula and engine that they simply cannot afford right now. Sure it might become an insanely profitable installment but the risk is just too high when they could just turn to other historical/fantasy settings that fit the current formula better and will probably be just as profitable maybe even more than 40k. I'm talking about Medieval 3, Empire 2, Lord of the Rings, Dune, etc... Dune is actually a perfect example of a potential game that would help them bridge the gap between a more traditional style of warfare and a modern one.There's a reason why Warhammer Fantasy worked so well, if you look at other modding game conversions it was one of the most popular ones since most of what it needed was already there and it fit so well. Until they upgrade their framework and engine Total War 40k is going to be nothing more than a pipedream.
>>538023503TWW40K wil be a 10 years project, just like TWW.They will fund it with 10 years of DLC, just like TWW.
Mon-keigh I want a space squire.
>>538023503They won't do any more historical games after Pharaoh bombed...Outside maybe another romance of three kingdoms
>>538023503>>538023784It's not happening.If it does happen I will show everyone my penis.
>>538023803Both of those games failed for very different reasons, but it's clear there is still a huge market for historical strategy games even if the old total war fanbase is gone. Three Kingdoms was actually a pretty big success it just shit the bed with its DLC updates
>>537990897Both are useful and you get melee anyways from the buildingPretty much any monstrous infantry is best when working with chaff, it's great for blocking chaosnigger chariots/monsters
>>538023503Nigger they dont care if its a good fitThey laid off over 200 people. Out of 800-something. 25 fucking percent.SEGA is on their ass, they need money. Big money.
>>538024763also this >>538023784Its gonna be a fucking Early Access-tier game on release like Warhammer 1
>>538018261Made for Reiklander cock btw, Felix fumbled
>>538024763it was all dei hires, you know those people whom you ask, what would you say you do here
>>538024903I shall wait until TW:WH40k3
how the hell does this work, why can't I just make landfall?
>>538023803>they wont make another historical title after thrones of britannia bombed>they wont make another historical title after troy bombed>they wont make another historical title after pharaoh bombed>YOU ARE HEREZoomers are intellectually capable of thinking outside of "funny sales line goes up = GOOD" and that mindset has killed video games more throughly than a jewish board of directors.
>>538024763That's exactly my point, what makes you think they can pull off 40k after having 1/4th of their employees laid off when they couldn't even properly pull off Warhammer 3 before? Maybe once they find themselves in a more stable position they can give it a shot, but as it currently stands they're setting themselves up for disaster (even more so considering DoW IV just got announced and it's going to eat up a slice of their pie).
>>537997119You capture all the TK pyramids, research 2 more lords to expand your army cap, and then spam 50 armies of FREE FUCKING SKELETONS by Turn 30. This is what Reddit tells me.
>>538015049Like the original Thirteenth Black Crusade, Storm was set up as>This is going to change... Everything.And was supposed to end with Chaos being much stronger and more prominent in the setting. Unfortunately, they thought that bringing in player participation would be a cool way to get people hyped for the coming change in the setting. All the battle results ended up with Chaos getting fucking rekt and the Ordertide proving themselves much, much stronger and more popular. So GW undid it all in some random post-event magazine article. Storm went out with a whimper but Chao still achieved its goals bitch, you suck. And when End Times rolled around they basically did the same thing but didn't involve players at all in the outcome. They just wrote a bunch of characters to be very stupid or out of character, drastically increased the levels of high fantasy drama in the setting, and then killed it for the trademark-friendly Age of Sigmar.
>>538025179You have less than 50% movement. When you make landfall outside a port, your army is put into Forced March. If you don't have enough to enter Forced March, you cannot land.
https://community.creative-assembly.com/total-war/total-war-warhammer/blogs/73-join-us-for-the-total-war-25th-anniversary-celebrations>Taking place in early December, this show will unveil the new games that you can expect to play in the near and distant future, as well as introduce you to the development teams making them. We’ll have more details to share as we approach the end of the year, but whether you’re a FANTASY or history fan, there will be plenty to enjoy!You fucking retards, its gonna be a new fantasy gameLotrKINGS will be eating good
>>537997119Kills vamps early, then start gearing up to wipe out skarbrand before he gets on your ass.You can ignore the black pyramid, they aren't going to declare war on you and even if they did they don't leave their base 99.9% of the time because of their trait.
>>538025807Also, GW learned from these mistakes so that the next time they did a player-controlled/influenced event, they put their fat fucking thumb on the scales so that they got the "lore" they wanted to write. It's just like how MTG/WOTC used to have events where the final set in a trilogy of releases would be "influenced" by the results of official tournaments, such as Mirrodin "possibly" ending up as either New Phyrexia or Mirrodin Pure. Spoilers: They were always going to do New Phyrexia.
>>537997119How can you have any issues winning as the single easiest, most OP, most expansionist lord in the game right now?
>>538025807>OrdertideNah, orcs raped chaos too> And when End Times rolled around they basically did the same thingUnfortunely no, because storm of chao for all it's fault, didn't had shit like >unch of characters to be very stupid or out of characterAlso, your favorite thirteenth black crusade had just that, and giant plot armor for everyone who wasn't imperium
TWW40K is doomed to succeed, just like TWW.I would say the only thing that can endanger TWW40K are CA's futur side projects if they flop and cost the company too much money (like with Arena / Halo Wars / the Sagas titles / Hyena for TWW the past 10 years).
The real fantasy game is pretending that Total War: Warhammer 40K is coming.
>>538026779Well, we know they're making Alien Isolation 2Then there was that action game, assuming it hasnt been cancelled
>>538025807>Thirteenth Black CrusadeAbbadon the Armless needed to fuck up 12 times before he managed to actually accomplish anything.
>>538026779I'm sure that's what Relic thought when they made Dawn of War 3.I'm sure that's what Slitherine thought when they made Armageddon. I'm sure that's what the developers of the Eisenhorn videogame thought. I'm sure that's what the developers of the Adeptus Titanicus game thought. I'm sure that's what that studio that made Speed Freakz, the 40k Kart Racer/Battler, thought.There are more failed 40k games than there are successful ones. Say what you will about 40k players, the ones who buy the videogames do have standards. If something isn't up to snuff, no matter how cool it may be, they will not buy it.
>>538027108This is correct. I still think the average person remotely interested in warhammer/40k vidya really doesn't know just how many 40k games there are out there. Ever since GW got lax with the licensing there was a surge of dogshit 40k games.
Yeah, I think its time to have this world...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yV8USmxRzw0&list=RDyV8USmxRzw0&start_radio=1
>>538027108What's sad is some of those shit games were good licenses. Armageddon could've been a cool strategy-scale game but Slitherine really just phoned it in. Eisenhorn is one of the pillars of the Black Library canon and they just made a really mediocre iPhone game.
>>538023801>10/10 in the Imperium
>>538026779Good bait, I can tell you arent old enough to have been around for empire/early warscape with a take like that
>>538026181They actually did try putting their thumb on the scale for SoC.To my understanding, they released a whole bunch of really overpowered units for chaos right before, just to buff them up a bit, but they still ended up losing, because while all the chaos players had to figure out how to fit in those new units into their armies, all the other factions' players had perfectly viable strategies ready to go.
>>538010013>we cant copyright generic fantasy races for maximum jewry>dump it
>>538027068Uh, actually he was vary successful in 12 previous ones and accomplished all of his secret goals.
>>538028320i dont think they got anything, the problem was that a bunch of new players came in and screwed with the numbers because they didnt know how to play
>>538028595I'm sure that's what he tells people.
>>538027108All those games were dropped by their dev within a year.Do you think CA will drop the only game they have in 2027 ?

Why the hell don't modders use AI to just generate some basic ass new voicelines for their custom characters?
>>538029714I've heard from other modders that you can get in shit for that (banned) for publishing it even though you don't make money from it. I have a mod from another modder that uses AI to generate lines (mod changes male LL to female version, copies the lines, adds a few more, using AI female voice that kinda sounds appropriate) but it's not public, private/unlinked and shared in a forum.
>>538029878what the hell? Even if it's generic lines?
>>538029980Supposedly. It isn't work I've done, but have read on a handful of times (on steam and modding forums). And I don't know how you'd properly verify it, either. Do CA respond to questions on the forum or some shit? Otherwise, you can ask the >discord server 'Da Modding Den' which is a huge mod server for TW. I've never posted there, but I've heard of it occasionally and credited as being helpful. It isn't just for warhammer, either, I think it's all TW modding.

Lads, is there a mod (cheat) out there that gives Archaon access to both or either of Be'lakor's Rites or at least his portals, and his access to all the Daemon units? He should have gotten access to everything anyway as the penultimate Chaos experience.

Are there any good beginner guides for total war rome 2? I'm new to the franchise and trying to find some but they're either shit or use some fuckass mods while I'm playing vanilla I've tried a few games as Rome, I'm just spamming infantry since I've heard that Rome's infantry is really good, but I usually get fucked over by rebellions tanking my economy while dealing with constantly getting declared war on for whatever reasonAlso, how accurate are autoresolves? Like if autoresolve tells me that no matter what stance I take I'm going to lose, do I just accept it, or am I better off fighting the battle myself and trying?
>>538086039post a screenshot?just keep food and public order in the positive, temples in every province and a couple farms here and therereally not that difficult>how accurate are autoresolves?I find it tends to overvalue trash units and unnecessarily kill off cavalry
I find it hilarious that some developer just based all Bloodspeaker models on this actor from Troy. Not a bad choice, actually.
>>538087215I really like the Bloodspeaker model, they are one of the coolest generic lords in the game. But all the variants look too similar to each other, just like most of the recent generic characters added, which is unfortunate.Where did they say they based it off him?
>>538087215>Bloodspeaker
>>538082902>reddit spacingBe'lakor is the Chaos-iest of the Warriors of Chaos. He's a stand in for a Chaos Undivided Daemonmanii lord or a more classic Daemons of Chaos roster. You should just play him if that's what you want.
Sent a disaster battle to Legend. Bro, just lower your difficulty to easy and auto resolve it, problem solved.He's right, it works but gods, that is not the answer I wanted.
Is there a mod that lets you play every single faction in a single campaign?
Finally bought second monitor(unironically mostly for work, dunno what use of it for gaming) and now mouse cursor always instead of moving camera goes from one screen to another in total war games.Any way to fix that? Or should I just move on the wasd controls?

The ToT video kind of killed my interest so I have not visited the general since. I assume there were no news this week?
you guys have to come to terms with this dlc never coming out. WH3 is over, accept the incoming 40kuck tide and just let it wash over you
>>538095425Yeah, by default Total War doesn’t lock the cursor to one screen, so it’ll just slide over if you’re on a dual-monitor setup. If you want it locked, you’ve got a few options: In some TW games (like Warhammer), there’s a setting in the options menu under ‘Graphics’ or ‘Display’ called Confine Mouse Cursor to Window turning that on keeps it locked.If the game doesn’t have that setting, you can run the game in borderless fullscreen or use third-party tools like Cursor Lock to keep the mouse contained. Otherwise, yeah, WASD is the safe way around it.
good morningwhat's your campaign looking like?I wanna see some maps!
>>538050801>>538023257once you discover kairos in diplomacy just declare war on him right awayotherwise he will use his schemes and steal your settlements due to anti player bias, declaring war prevents thisof course you now have to fight him and teleport stance but that's ok since tzeentch auto resolve is really scuffed in the early stages

>>538101661i keep having to remind myself that ToT is Tides of Tormentvery fitting for slaanesh dlc
>>538105483Not much to show. Defensive allied with Arbaal for a change (usually just leave him neutral). Rolling West per usual and not sure when/where to stop. I like to do different armies each time with Archaon, thinking of having one of each god divided warrior/chosenmanii, but then also considered having a khorne unit from Arbaal, then started thinking of perhaps having one of each god allied recruitment unit (eventually have to find others and ally with them for that, e.g. Kairos for a Tzeentch unit).
>Cunning now gives 25% ambush success chance and also +10 defenseIt was worth saving all those Cunning Lords
>>538106904Writers - or perhaps the suits more so that tell them what to do, need to understand how much multiverse shit turns people off like a lightbulb unless they are a very very very small segment of hyper-giga-comic nerds, who'll probably be more upset that you went against issue #2738's rendition than happy you did multiverse shit.If End of Times and Age of Sigmar had to happen, no if and or butts I would have just had the chaos wastes engulf the entire planet and the incarnates able to carve out little islands of order amidst the chaos. Instead of these abstract gates and weird colonization missions into the realms you have every sphere of influence fighting day and night to keep from chaos swallowing it up. And the borderlands between realm and the chaos wastes being a gradient. There's still the different realms but you can go march from Azyr all the way to Ulgu or whatever the fuck gibberish the shadow realm is called, same way Khorne can go march to Nurgle's garden.Or you know not fucking end-times it, or just pause the end times at the ending and introduce sigmarines as Karl ascendant or whatever bullshit he was when Sigmar inhabited his body introducing new troops.End of the day it's all about the copywriting. And while it's doing better sales than WHF was back then a monkey soup would sell more than WHF was back then.

>>538120827you should fight the easy fights because the auto resolve still loses you units and makes it that you have to replenish for a turn or twoif you fight these easy battles you can use your army sooner and can crank up the difficultyI usually fight most early fights but skip the late fights because you get a doomstack and every battle feels the same

>>538121753i have the most fun when my army is mostly made up off normal troops and only has a few elites. you don't feel bad losing the chaff units and can micro the elite units. once everyone has elite stacks battles become icky
>>538121859the only replays worth watching are those where you lost so you can learn and i don't like seeing myself lose
>>538120526kek
>next opponent has 20 settlements in shit climate>delete campaignhow do i stop this?
>>538122185play Chorfs they can settle in any climate
>>538122185make vassals and have them fight for you
>>538122185Settle them with a vassal/ally of choice and move on.
Does creamapi work or not? I don't want to give my shekels to CA
>>538122824ask a peasant
>>538122824I have moved to smokeapi and that works for me
>>538031880Which one will end up keeping him?
>AI places hounds at the same place you place your vanguard ambushI usually don't reload battles after making mistakes, but that was pure bullshit,
>>538123291How is that bullshit? Vanguard zones typically overlap. They're both vanguard units.
>>538115096>so why are you upset with aosNiggers!
>>538124093Ai never places hounds in vanguard zone because usually that means they'll be raped the second battle starts
>>538125249>neverBut according to >>538123291 they do.
Is it just me or do TK chariots suck?
>>538122185>Attack opponents nearest province capital>Build military + money building>Sell it to them for peace + vassalage + 50 000 gold
>>538125607Good early on for chaff clearing but that's it
>>538121584>You dont get those catchy catchlinesAstragoth ZULAHOO and zhatan DA BRAJJ want to have a word with you.
>>538125607Like all chariots they rely on collision damage. If you charge uphill (even 1cm incline) they hit like wet farts. But yeah, they are alright in early game but should be phased out once you get access to constructs.
>>538120827>playing battles
>>538121859Oh shit there are replays now? I used to just throw fights to zoom in and watch. Now I can play them out strategically and watch them later.
>>538127803>now
>>538125607Too many entities makes them unwieldy. I just stick my heroes on one.
>>538127951nyow?
>>538127803It's a feature i never use but i feel like they've been a thing since game one, could be wrong though.
I only lose battles if I already lost on the campaign mapno I will not cheese the ai
Odd
>>538098150The broad takeaway from the reviews at the time seems to have been "it's fine, but there's not a lot to do past the SP campaign."
Are the events worth?
I've been thinking of picking up the game again, do vc get these Locations?
>>538129427Which VC? Which locations?
>>538129427Vlad, and any locations at all. I remember reading something about how only order factions can get them.
>>538129427>>538130274Are you feeling ok

Total Warcraft
>>538093634Alternatively learn to take an L, improve on things that lead up to that L.
>>538093634Thanks for the superchat
>>538120670Yeah after I saw Vampire count ultimate crisis just completely ignore retaking sylvania and instead bumrush me in Zhufbar I decided to never play with it on again
>>538131672Warcraft 2 to WotLK would be kino desu
>>538132310Thank god blizzard doesn't outsource their IPs to other companies for the new games. Dodged a bullet here.
>>538132310Why would you want experience disappointment that was wotlk again?It literally had end of times "quality of writing" there, fuck, people don't even mock shadowlands anymore, but wotlk ending and how retarded arthas plan was, is still considered to be the lowest point of warcraft writing
>>537885318Because you keep paying for it.
>tww3 really needs to add gorlash babycrusher!! then it will be complete!!no it will still be shit no matter how many overtuned dlc lords they pile on this mountain of broken SHITbut ca will never fix the game, they have moved on and are phoning it in just to milk people a few last times
>>538134737How do you want the game fixed?
>>538134737>they have moved onIf only. Had they moved on modders could finally fix the game without patches fucking it up
>>538134737As a total war fan it's your duty to keep buying it or we won't get the sequel to Hyenas 1
>>538134737>ca will never fix the gameI guess latest rework of items, traits, factions never happened. Also optimization patch never happened. I wonder what else didn't happened and won't happen in the future.
>>538006517Why are you so bothered by people having fun?
>>538135469Fuck off redditus, muh items, muh traits should have been fixed like two months after launch.Where is the PROPER siege rework? Where is half decent AI? Where is a proper endgame and not these shitty meme crisis?
>>538135909>siege reworkworked on>half decent AIcommunity can't handle it, average player is too retarded - confirmed by historical dev in an interview>proper endgamedescribe what should be a proper endgame, because every TW game had a faction show up or reemerge as a main threat and nobody ever cared, everybody clapped, so tell me what should be a proper endgame
>>538006517I dont mind shitty ai, I do mind how they literally cheat and avoid my stacks.>20 turns of having an army near the coast>finally kill the last enemy there and move it out>immediately some faggot sails across the sea from the end of the world and raids the corner cityit's literally whack-a-mole, but when the mole knows where you will be at all times so you can never catch them
>>538136292>worked onAbsolutely not, what we saw in the beta is mod tier at best.
>>538136476Then say what a rework should have. Indulge us with your insight.
>>538127803the replay function is not very goodit's not a real recording, it more just tries to replicate your inputs and the ai inputso if a vortex spell ends up moving in a different direction or something you can sometimes end up having the recording go the other way and lose the battle in the recordingvery weird
>>538136651Better maps.Fire mechanics.Monsters able to climb walls.Ability to pass under walls for appropriate races.Gates that work.
>>538136810Don't forget about better pathfinding
>>538136902That too
>>538121097I've been dabbling in Rome 2 recently, and I am blown away by how dynamic the units feel>facial expressions>executions>looking around at the battle>fighting back and (possibly) scattering when routing>less generic insults>>538127803>>538121919I save replays for any battle that seems fun to watch if I remember to, but sometimes I forget, especially in the late game. They should make it so you can save the autosave replay for these occasions
So, what are your favorite Blessed Spawns? I dig Blessed Sacred Kroxigors as bodyguards for Kroxigor Ancient, feels very thematic. The Chameleon Stalkers are also very neat, if extremely situational. They only have 3000 hp, but their attacks deal double damage at targets under 50% hp. With this buff alone their javelins deal 60 explosive + 40 explosive ap + something like 80 projectile damage, meaning they essentially delete anything they hit. Makes them really fun assassin unit, especially in early game.
>>538136810>Better maps.Matter of preference.>Fire mechanics.1/3 of the races live in stone settlements or stone dwelling making this change superficial and mostly visual, it wouldn't improve sieges at all.>Monsters able to climb walls.Devs are considering it for some monsters but community simply isn't vocal enough about that change.>Ability to pass under walls for appropriate races.Arcade'y change. It took weeks to dug up tunnels under walls in real life and community can't make believe that 10 minute siege lasts 10 weeks because they want buildables removed from sieges, making this change heavily inconsistent with the rest of the siege.>Gates that work.Sure, agree, again devs said they are working on it.>>538136902>pathfindingSure, agree, again devs said they are working on it.
>>538137231One thing I absolutely love about R2 and Attila is the unit chatter. Its leagues above most of what is in Warhammer. Sure, some are a bit corny, and there is that one gingers voice thats kinda too high, but I still find them far more engaging than the shrieking most units do in Warhammer, except perhaps the Empire.>Move your fat arse, I want a better view!>Oh gods, grant me quiet! How much did I have last night?>Not quite the whole jar, sir.>Will you give my eulogy, if things go bad? >Let's make sure they go well instead.They also change depending on the context. Fighting would be the obvious one, but there is also at least a few for when they're marching or in a sea battle>Oarmaster! Your best men to the helm!>Already done, sir!>Come on, come on, you march like old women!>Why have you stopped shooting, did I say you could, did I?!?Rome 2 got a lot of hate, justifiably so at launch, and still to this day vanilla is pretty underwhelming. But with a good mod like DEI or something I genuinly will put in the top 5 of the series.
>>538137909>Matter of preference.CopeAlso, we need more maps. 2 maps per race is not good>mostly visualVisuals matter, a lot.>ut community simply isn't vocal enough about that change.True>Arcade'y change. This is an extremely arcadey game
>playing High Elves>ambush the Lizardmen>Slann lord>4 temple guards>2 saurus warriors (1 a blessed version)>1 saurian - feral or dread I don't remember which>2 ancient stegadons (1 a blessed version)It's over
>>538138302bok bok
>>538138302Is magic and ranged the only way to counter saurusmanii?The butcher my units all the time
Which dlc/main game preset do you use in your Main menu?I use Vortex because I like warhammer 2 main theme more than 1 and 3
>>538138223>Also, we need more maps. 2 maps per race is not goodAgree, we need more maps, but the current ones are a matter of preference, talked with many people about town/city maps and some like them, some don't.>Visuals matter, a lot.You won't be able to see those visuals almost at all if you are pretty much anywhere outside of the Old World.>This is an extremely arcadey gameSure, it is, but having an inconsistent arcadey game wouldn't make it any better.
>>538133757The "there must always be a Lich King" and "casual complete retcon of the end of TFT before Arthas was popular" stuff is barely even noticed anymore because Warcraft's writing has consistently and repeatedly ascended to new levels of dogshit so terrible that they each made all the stupid decisions that came before them seem quaint and inoffensive. Also doesn't help that WotLK was almost 20 years ago.It would be great to get another Warcraft RTS but the IP as exists now is a truly gruesome aberration shambling forward wearing the increasingly tattered skin of the old franchise.
>>538138993>s barely even noticed anymore because Warcraft's writing has consistently and repeatedly ascended to new levels of dogshitEven in legion days people still mocked the shit out of that retardation though, doubt that in single decade things changed a lot
>>538139296Or maybe you're just a boomer projecting
Old timer general sonny
>>538120827It's completely pointless to fight battles in campaign. The autoresolve always gets the same result as you would anyway.
>>538138496The Sneedvanus into Jailer arc was so full of insane retarded writing people barely care about pre-BFA anymore to be honest. Shadowlands in general was so egregiously bad it had a noticeable impact on the culture of lore and RP communities around the game with people having their passion for the IP destroyed and walking away or going full head canon mode and ignoring anything Blizzard put out.It was some of the funniest times to watch the game from afar though what with the insane company sex pest drama and the devs publicly losing their fucking minds, mass censoring the game and deleting fart jokes and going back to old art to hide cleavage and then making Dragonflight the most unabashedly pixar-looking neopets-tier gay furry slop imaginable.
>>538137581I've never really played liggers much but i really like the sacred kroxigors and the chameleon skinks even though they just get a bit of extra range.Also fuck ikit, nothing better to do than send his shit all the way over starting at turn 25. I've sailed my main army over not seeing all the armies he had around me, not pictured is another army i ran into on the way.
>>538140032They should have just continued with the Warlords of Draenor shitTime travel and what if scenarios
Jesus these new traits make generic lords better than some LL's
>>538138496Dinos die to AP ranged, as do pepes. For infantry AP AL elites are a great choice: armor and high stats counter Sauruses, AP AL + charge defence mitigates damage from dinos. You could go for elite AI but then you'll always have couple units that eat shit due to being charged by dinos. Campaign HElves have great counter simply by spamming sisters and penis guards.
>>538140123Yeah, Chameleon skinks are great too. That extra 20 range may seem piddly but it helps them a lot to stay outside spotting range.
>>538140264Poor Daniel...
>>538141121Daniel has cataclysm spells.
>>538142286he does??i guess ive never played him long enough lmaoafter slaanesh dlc I was planning on playing him first to try it out and if he still sucked I was gonna just roll nkari or the snake lady
>>538142608Only as Tzeentch devoted though, additional items from mirrors of madness update can grant him bound cataclysm spells.
I've decided I don't like TK's gimmick because cost effectiveness of units becomes irrelevant compared to per slot strengthIt actually goes against "spamming" skeletons and the sacrificial healing passive mechanic because I need everything to be elite to deal with multiple stacks on higher difficultiesWith other factions I can just run another army and chaff things down
>>538143365No remember that one guy spamming that they were now completely generic and lost all unique features with the update? You must be mistaken
>>538143497Sounds dumb I think the update is good overall and TK are still very cool it's just a shame shitstacks aren't an option
>>538138685I didn't realize you could change them
>>538105483still early game, but very fun so far
Tomb kings are now completely generic and lost all unique features with the update.
>>538106904copeit is literally the best warhammer game ever made

>>538149321I see 3 bolt throwers, and they're shite. You should be worried about them bussies and elite chorfs. You can use furries to sneak up on arty and fuck them up easy.

>>538154006He doesn't do that if he really likes you.
>>538153804>good ranged units>infinite magic>Chosen as line holders>strong cavalry with barrier>cheap flying units with barrier to harass your archersTzeentch is by probably the strongest faction under AI control, but no one realises it because Kairos is in the cuck corner and the Changeling has his AI turned off.

>>538157345seems a little dangerous...
>>538156696Your fault for not having TK style armyYou should play them as basic skaven, skeletons tank while elite units do damage, you had only skeletons
>>538157345
>>538158531they're using foam swords
>>538158434In lore TK don't resurrect others, they just dig up their own people and bind the souls.
>>538159461they could still poke an eye out, or give someone a concussion
I can't stop myself from saying to myself "Greasus, the shockingly obese" and giggling

>>538160645AI Khorne factions are RNG dependant when it comes to who comes out on top. Their settlements don't make much money so all their armies are kinda shit because they don't spawn bloodhosts. If they survive early game they have a chance, if not other factions steamroll them hard.
