>>539010272i think selling kebabs would fit him better-more
>>539009302Small is nice too.
>>539010272Honest question anons: Would you rather eat a hot dog made by Taurox or a serving of Indian street food?
wtf is this stupid chaos wastes what a shithole
>>539010272Put two on the grill for me, boss. Relish and Mustard.
>>539010810He's using tongs so it's already way cleaner
>>539010810Taurox wears an apron and is using utensils instead of his hands.

>>539011487It's hilarious how they have this strong rivalry but the rest of the world just sees the same disgusting thing
>>539011721they're literally the same people divided by religion. it's like the irish and the north irish
>>539011925Don't compare us to the west britons again you What d’ye think of that, ye ancilliary-wearin’, auto-resolve-lovin’, bog-trottin’ Skaven-rat, gobshite garrison-sitter, pox-ridden Chaos-worshippin’ langer, half-baked Cathay turtlin', bletherin’ Kislev gobdaw, Doomstack-clickin’ gurrier, milk-lappin’ Bretonnian eejit, gormless hotkey-fumblin’ amadán, whingin’ onions-faced Khorne-thick, worm-eyed little scut of a Daemon Prince, ya useless spud-headed Ogre bollix

1-2 Boris3-4 Skragg5-6 Arbaal7-8 Grimgor9-0 BelakorI've nver played any of these factions so help and tips are appreciated.
>>539017736>Arbaalsimple, secure your starting province or two and keep a cheap army in each province while Arbaal teleports around the world, razes and sacks for a few turns, then teleports againbeen a while since I played him so I don't remember specifics, just that once you take off it doesn't really ever stopwrathmongers are good if you have them
>>539017736>arbaalpiss easy modeblow up minor settlements and settle majorno supply lines so always be recruiting and multiple lords wandering aroundhave arbaal hope around the world for his challenges as there are some nice buffs from there like extra campaign movement and reduce upkeepwrathmongers are absolutely bustedarbaal's boosts mortal units but he's best with cavalryhave your main armies push out from your starting area, don't be afraid to fight everyone and go in the red, the post battle loot will be greatmeanwhile do arbaal challenges, start outposts or confederate other khornate factions as needed\also research that tech that gives growth after battle ASAP
AKSHINA AMBUSHERS are probably the worst, most useless, most overpriced piece of GARBAGE in the entire game. It's actually crazy how bad, WORTHLESS, a single unit can just be. Why, why would anyone ever buy that fucking SHIT over kossars or streltsi? AND NO, they are not even good at fighting in the woods, they are slow, they don't shoot while moving, magic damage I guess is "okay" against fucking savage Orcs on the other side of the map to overcome their low armor but physical resistance, their hybrid stats don't allow them to excel at anything, neither good at shooting nor fighting melee, just "okay" at both while having the price of a tier 5 unit, a total fucking piece of crap, probably designed for MP, of course, like every fucking trash unit in this game.
>>539010272TAUROX LOVES WEENIES
>>539019509upon release they were armour piercing in melee and ranged and were better than shades, becoming the premier kislev unitsadly it was later nerfed badly
>>539019770And I guess, I presume, I have this insane suspicion that they were nerfed on behalf of all the cries from the MP community. It's time we accept we have a problem here.
>>539010272Isn't that cannibalism?
>>539010272gee taurox, how come malagor let's you eat two wieners?
>>539020067You are correct. MPfags were screeching on the forums and reddit about Ambushers as soon as they released.It's remarkable given that they came with Shadows of Change which had plenty of other bullshit packaged in that was actually worth complaining about.
>>539020067Stealth is actually relevant in MP so all stealth units have to suck in SP
Have you called your mother lately anon?
>>539020067To be fair pretty much everyone called them out because Ambushers were basically making every other kislev unit irrelevant in campaign too
>>539020669She's on a cruise on another continent, but I wished her a happy birthday earlier this week
>>539021191At least they should have balanced it so that you could make them valuable through technologies, not even Ostankya tech tree boosts them to make them worthy at all at any point in game, especially considering you fight mostly against the mid armor, silver shielded Delve infantry mostly.
>>539022580Based and thoughtful son pilled
>>539020669Ew noShe visited instead
>>539023956If you take what in real life used to be Prussia on a map of Warhammer fantasy where would Prussia have been?
>>539024110Parts of the empire and some of Kislev
>>539020669I still live with her.
>>539024110ostland and erengrad
>>539024450cool artstyle
I took down a Black Ark as Alith Anar and I got all my movement range back, is this tooltip out of date?
>>539024802When this game says like +5% replenishment or +5% movement it's WAY more significant than that soundsI'm guessing it's because baseline replenishment is "10%" or something along those lines
Why can't you attack from sea as Norsca? They should be viking raiders but you're forced to waste a turn disembarking before you can sack a settlement.
>>539025232Uhhh just play the game and don't ask questions YOU FUCKING WHITE MALE CHUD
>>539025232NORSCAN RAIDERS?VAMPIRE COAST?YOU CALL YOURSELVES PIRATES?
>>539025728
>Surtha Ek (leader of all Norscan people)>Surthara Bel-Kec (Tiranoc leader)What does it mean?
>>539026652Hack writers.
>>539025796>duhhh don't be scared of mask edday, someone else is using it.
>>539026652>In Total War: Warhammer II, the developers added several easter eggs as nods to the character's popularity. Surtha Ek was reconfigured to always start with a chariot mount. If Surtha Ek or the Tomb King Settra the Imperishable defeat the other, the victor gains the "True Chariot Master" trait. Additionally, the leader of the High Elves faction of Tiranoc (a faction also renowned for their chariots) was named "Surthara Bel-Kec".
>>539010272excellent
Is there a mod to keep certain unusual locations from appearing in certain places?
Do you think CA will ever make a TTW4[/spoiler] with sea battles?
Hiroshimoot ate my spoilerThats it, i'm starting an ogre campaign
>>539030141hell no. they could make a "total war: age of sail" and still they won't add sea battles. it's just never going to happen again too many charlemagnes
>Miao coming in with 3 doomstacks>position my army outside of the minor settlement in ambush stance>fails, pulls me in a fight with 3 armies, my army is reinforcing the settlement>get an amazing cathay map with a huge pillar>position my reinforcing army entrance point behind it>Miao wipes my garrison in seconds>reinforcing army comes in, get them in position>fend off the first army, there's 2 more in reserves>run circles around the pillar and isolate targets one by one, eliminate any unit from the reinforcements as they come in>all my units are spread apart and doing small skirmishes in like 6 areas all over>heroic victory after 45 minutes of kiting the enemiesthis battle was genuinely the most fun I've had in my last 100 hours. Why are WH3 battles so bad compared to previous TW games and even WH2?

Real question: Do you get better at commanding troops while drunk?I feel like I'm much better at the game while a few drinks in.
>>539031053What a mess.
>>539025232Fixing it with 7.0
>>539031137Alcohol improves everything you do, it's scientific.The only reason it's bad is because Acetaldehyde is a potent carcinogen and generalized poison.
>>539031137Depends on how much you do one or the other naturally. You're less likely to second guess yourself, but you're also more likely to overlook any mistakes you might make.
>>539031053>>539031184I'm going to start a Immortal Empires campaign of Prince Zhao Ming, the Iron Dragon any advice?

>>539031137>>539031339confidence is like an irl cheat code
>>539031243is there still going to be a horse spinning around in there when fighting skaven? dwarfs? lizardmen?what if there are no horses in sight?
>>539030332This is the first image of him you've drawn in which he isn't getting elfed
>>539031243>guy in the body water>head swallows guy>but head is just connected to the same body water as beforeI don't get this creature
>>539032980it's important from which side the chicken enters your body, too.
For me? Dreadlord (mask) on a Cold One in a cavalry heavy army.
>>539033218I'm that cold one.

>>539010272>>539030332Nicely done.also cow don't eat meat
>>539034983put cow eats chicken into jewtube, my dude
>>539034983You'll find that 'herbivores' can and will eat meat under certain circumstances. Their digestive system just isn't designed for it, so they don't gain as many nutrients.
I watched https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3rXKKGsfpk again so I'm gonna play Karl. Anything I should know? Literally never played Empire.
>>539035985dont bother fighting marienburg if you can help it
>>539035985yes, wearing a chastity cage makes your prostate more sensitive
I miss the goofy spy cutscenes from medieval 2
>>539035985One thing I do appreciate about the allied unit mechanics is allowing you to have cool combined unit fights like that.

>>539049382Isn't hypermuscle pic ?
>>539049645Yep, both are
>>5389996085 trebuchets do win against 2 hell cannons because they only need to kill the crew. but mostly it's about killing infantry units that your knights can't handle like the fireglaivesyou do want the enemy to move towards you so they don't camp on some hill and so they break formation and allow you to find units to pick offgrail reliquaries are completely useless. they give some melee attack and leadership but if you're going for an elite stack it's better to get another additional unit. also i used a very spread out formation to make the manlets run for it and it would be impossible to apply the buff effectively
>>539042181Game kind of conditions you to by throwing so many at you

>>539049792they're not useless they make your peasants significantly stronger, but they would probably still get rekt by the immortals anyway. I still think you would be better off forgetting about the trebs and the infantry and taking more cavalry.
>>539055808probably but i wanted to have as little micro as possible and from a sp perspective you do need some siege capability. the squires can fight through the town while the trebuchets clear the waybut i agree more cavalry would have made it easier since bretonnian infantry sucks ass
>>539053529He was tugging on something and it let go and smacked him in his balls.
>>539055808>Using Pe*sants at allChurlish
>>539056152their infantry has its place, just not against an army with 2 dreadquakes and 5 elite anti-infantry rors
>>539056285i wasn't trying to make an army specifically against that stack. it was more like a benchmark

when does the damn siege rework get released sieges are so fucking ANNOYING doubly so since im playing Bretonnia
>>539057173Use the disable siege cheats. Then compensate by using garrison buff cheat.

>>539062159to all the zoomers that aren't aware, in the 80s/90s there was a health fad of drinking your own piss. wasn't huge or that popular but they made an episode of CSI where the woman who was murdered had piss in her stomach as a nod to it

I unironically miss the ruins puzzles of the old ones. They just had to get rid of the stupid one with the lines, all the other were fun.
For me? It's gotta be the Boeotian helmet. Yep.
>>539063183same desu playing as cadavo in vortex rn and they were a nice distraction
>still no cheat that gives all RoR to GolgfagCheatbros...
>boetian helmet Yikes!
>>539055808>+5 melee attack and +8 leadership>significantly strongerthis is not worth an entire unit slot unless you're buffing your entire army
When cultures collide!
>>539057173you're playing sieges wrong. i'm sorry you can't fill your doom stack with your favorite units that suck in sieges but this is "total war" and not "total land battle only on flat terrain"
>>539064598>play sieges 'right' with bretonnia>send in lord paladin blob and spam dwellerswow fun...
>>539063183>We went from Choose Your Own Adventure ruins with shitty rewards to line puzzles to nothingKinda sad really. Surprised no one's tried to bring them back and make them not shit
>>539064575Why would the celts not used bronze helmets like everyone else?
>>539064598what the other anon said the right way to siege with bretonnia is to blob everyone up and blow them up with dwellers below your infantry is dog ass and will get annihilated by 900 range towers so that leaves your cavalry now I get Cavalry are supposed to be trash in sieges thats cool however the problem is Cavalry are trash in sieges in total war warhammer because the pathfinding is so fucking bad
>>539064598sieges have always sucked though medieval 2 the game that everyone blows had such terrible 'sieges' it was a literal joke
Why are unknown locations so rare? I'm in over 100 turns and I've only had a few.
>>539065230because they're really good
>>539064675>>539064943fair enough
Kislev is so anti-fun to play it almost comes back around to being funny. What do you mean i have to fend off Arbaal, Azazel and a bunch of Skaven at the same time bro
>>539065108i don't mind tw 3 sieges. the only annoying thing is that stupid building mini game. just give us the supplies beforehand. there is already enough micro involved no need to complicate things further.but other than that they can be fun as long as you enter with a plan and the right unit composition.personally i don't even mind the "pocket ladders" and it's a sign of real incompetence that CA thought that this is something that needs to be changed. it's really not a stretch to assume that a fricking army can build as many ladders as they goddamn please and distribute them among all units. heck just image some invisible civilian support troops that carry the ladders behind them if realism is a concern. having ladders as separate entities is simply more micro and unnecessary restriction
>>539064943fixing the pathing would fix 90% of the problems I have with sieges but of course its the one thing that will never happen because ca is incompetent
If you have less than 500 hours your opinions are invalid btw
>>539066165I dont even want to think about the time I lost to this series during COVID
>>539066165500 hours on legendary and multiplayer right? not mindlessly auto resolving for hours until your dopamine runs dry right?
>>539063263>Boeotianwhy?
>>539066458looks cool
>>539066206I started TW2 (then/now TW3) little under 2 years ago and I already have 2k hours combined.
>>539065604same desuBiggest issues with sieges are >lacking maps (2 per race wtf)>lacking in detail (spiders climbing walls, ghosts passing through them, skaven/dwarfs digging under walls)>shit like gates bugging out
>>539065535I feel like it is very random, the first time I played with Kostaltyn it was a breeze and the eviltide was getting raped everywhere and barely had to fight Slaanesh and Skaven at the same time, the second time I was getting anal examinations from everyone everywhere, Skaven, Slaanesh, Arbaal, Norsca, even Drycha and the Ogres and even the Ice Queen was going to declare war upon me with the tribute threat.

>>539065535Most of them besides the baba yaga ripoff are challenging but fun.>KatarinTough until you can reliably take Praag then it becomes a cakewalk>KostaltynTough but gets to take Azazel off early then it becomes a breeze>BorisNonstop tough but nonstop fun, gets to take Archaon, Tamurkhan and Arbaal out early (Archaons starting army cannot handle fighting War Bear Riders), Daniel is so easy you can plant an Ice Witch or other Lord and just keep them in the capital nearest to his settlement to either constantly AR beat him back or kill him manually since hes so easy to kill and his early armies suck
>>539066458Kyriakos...
>>539067809don't forget the map where half of it is covered by the shadow of a cliff so you can't see anything!

>>539077815kekaroo
>>539077678shh dont say that they will get upset and make more forced shitposts
>>539075467Sadly true
I work in a furniture factory and I try to imagine to myself if we told our customers "sorry, we don't have the resources to deliver the quality you expect" like CA does. Truly game development is daycare for grown ups.
>>539057236I've been doing this and my enjoyment of the campaign increased tenfold.I also added>Abilities and Spells for Garrison Heroes and am trying>Fully Custom GarrisonIf fully custom garrison works for the AI, every settlement battle will be a full 20 battle and have different units instead of being the same every time.
>>539078804the company has been hollowed out by MBA suits. their current business model is converting customer loyalty into money until the company stops generating profits and the suits move on to greener pasturesthe japanese takeover might actually be a good thing though since their autism when it comes to game quality is the only thing that has even the remote possibility of saving this ship
>>539070347Your shogun 2 total war looks weird
>>539070528
>>539079247right
>>539079851Bro upgrade your PC you shouldn't be playing shogun 2 on the minimum settings
>>539079934nyo
>>539080014I CAN SMELL YOU FROM HERE
>>539080059
>>539080315How come only the japs strapped banners to the back of their dudes
>>539080383i assume because they mostly killed each other instead of foreign cultures. mostly. also i'm not a historian so who knows. it does look cool though
>warhammer adds climate shit to prevent you from just painting the map with every race>doesn't work because any settlement you raise is just instantly colonized by the AI>20 years later>the same problem still happens>climate penalties are still the samecould CA be any more incompetent?
>>539081624ithe ai likes to completely ignore razed settlements in my games. i once razed santas capital and then peaced with him to concentrate on other things. continued to go to war with him 30 turns later and it's still razed. or they colonize the razed town, but never upgrade them again.
So we’re really just sitting around for another month for the dlc trailer, silence til’ then?This sucks.
is there any way to make og rome run on more than 24 fps?I don't want to play the remastered
>>539081624all climate does is make campaigns more repetitive
>>539083378Climate was a stupid decision and I don't understand why CA kept it all the way to warhammer 3
Holy shit I think the stat boost slider for enemy AI finally broke me into lowering to 0%. Absolute cancer
>>539083595why would you use itit just makes ranged artillery and spells more dominant than they already are
>The AI proceed to force march from my army then raze one of my settlement.Fuck this shit
They really should add some more personality to the various LL.Seeing valkia giving me cash in exchange for peace is a huge immersion breaker. Not to mention watching the armies of khorne scatter everywhere trying to avoid fighting my stack just looks retarded.that said imagine capturing the gorequeen haha
I am sick but rather than give in to Nurgle's foul temptations I want to smash every fucking nurglitee screaming back into the warp like the faggots they are. LL for this feel?
>>539086825Surely it must be possible to mod what the AI can do in diplomacyI know for a fact you can mod the autoresolve, maybe make it 100% in favor of the ai
>Age of Sigmar™ introduces a mythological aspect to their origins with the introduction of Boingob™, the godbeast progenitor of all Squigs™. This massive creature barreled through the realms in a frenzied pursuit of the light of Hysh™ (basically the sun), until it finally jumped up and was roasted alive. Now its colossal skeleton serves as a holy place/impenetrable lurk lair to the Moonclan™ Grots.™I'm glad Age of Sigmar™ has given squigs a proper origin story.

What exactly is the usage for the Gate Master in the Cathay roster? he kinda sucks as a melee unit Is he just there as a buff bot for Jade units? Is he worth it for an army of jade units because it feels like that would get obsolete once you get the celestial units.
>>539091120it was better than this
>>539091305You can stack them to make jade way tougher than celestial while being cheaper
>>539091305>Gay Master
>>539091792Huh, didn't think about stacking them. I guess that'd make Jade units pretty legit. Only problem with Jade crossbowmen is they lack armor piercing.
>>539049060Yeah i wonder why
>>539091305the main usage is to make redditors happy with "character diversity" lol
The Golden Bussy...
>>539091931I love how you chuds conveniently leave out the context that some spaniard showed up to a 40k game wearing a t-shirt with a swastika on it
>>539093610>wearing a t-shirt with a swastika on itIt was even worse, he showed up wearing a full set of nazi clothes. With the express purpose of making every opponent he got matched against refuse to play with him and win every match by default.
>>539093783Holy BASED
>>539094004And then you wonder why GW wants nothing to do with you people and goes out of their way to make sure you don't feel welcome.
>>539093783Good hustle even if he sounds like a huge dickheadStill makes GWS and it's lefty PR team look like twats for having the telemetry to talk down to me

>>539093783lmao
>>539094325>Please tell us more about how trannies, female bretonnian knights and black state troopers 100% belong in Warhammer!Well you see anon, one day GW noticed that a bunch of unironic neonazis were trying to appropriate their business and setting and rig their tournaments, so they started adding all that stuff to filter them out and not lose every other client. The end.

total war?
Just did my first VHFunny how the top one is 2.8% and the bottom is 1.8%, finishing long victory objectives is such a drag

Will they ever add the battle speeches for the warhammer 1 and 2 factions?
>>539095898lmao
>>539095417I have 600 hours and I have never completed a campaign
>>539095417>funny how the easier achievement is achieved more often than the harder achievementcongratulations on your first campaign but that statement doesn't really make any senseeither way good job! it's not an easy feat and requires a decent amount of willpower and managing your personal mental resources as much as the in game resources
>>539089345Report immediately to the supreme patriarch chamber my daughter.
>>539096279Damn asmongold looking pretty grim lately.
>>539096340grave even
>>539096187you should try it. the game really opens up on the strategic level once you start managing several armies over a big territory
>>539096574That sounds like work. I think I shall just start a new campaign and get bored about 40 turns into it instead.
>>539096662this but with 10 turns
>>539096279Horny anons will think this means sex, but he wants to convince her to prank Katarin
>>539096694Based skulltaker player
How the fvark do i use Ogre Mercs? after the initial charge they lose health very fast
>>539096934Cycle charge mostly
>>539096934Charge once and then recruit another stack after the battle
>>539096740The prank is sex, right ?
>>539096268I was saying it's funny how small the difference is
>>539094482Except that those things were added before that debacle.
>>539077815What do you mean? Chaos cultists are notorious for hiding amongst the wealthy and powerful, lore accurate.
EoS 2028?
>>539077815>>539097637I don't care for politics and I genuinely hate anyone who brings that shit into a video game board, even (you). But this is an example of how it's done. At least make it relevant to the game instead of screeching about nazis or trannies or other off-topic bullshit.
>>539096662>That sounds like workyeah it is but it's also rewarding and some features only make sense in that bigger picture context. but you do you
https://youtu.be/WqajqXGZfv4
>>539098394Doesn't it cap out at like 90-95% anyway?
>>539098485yes it caps at 90%
>>539097115Archwarhammer also played a part in it.
Are Khatep and Khalida still shitty post-rework or are they fun now?
>>539098842They always were, people here just refuse to build eco buildings for some reason
>>539098842Khalida makes skelly archers do actual damage now I think
So how do i do siege battles with factions that have zero artillery like Slaneesh
>>539100996artillery is not that important for siegesmost important thing is to scale the walls with heavy infantry and then either set up killboxes with ranged (not applicable in this case) or rush objectivesso basically get heavy infantry and let your lord go wild inside after breaking the gate
>sneak ungors over the walls on the other side of the town>ungors open the gates>rest of that stealth group refuses to go through the open gate and rather climbs the wallwtf is this shit?
Are chosen and black orcs really just 30 man units now?? I'm suspecting a mod is fucking around but I have no idea which
>>539101648>put unit on a wall that has been destroyed on both sides>half of the unit manages to get up>the other half stays on the ground>the half on top of the wall is suddenly unable to get down again
>>539102068SFO?
>>53910206880 for me. did you fuck around with the unit size setting?
>>539102165Nah I know which one which I had forgotten I had activated. Better elites.Fuck me I'm stupid
>>539098842Khatep has always been goated.People fear the challenge campaign.
>>539102293more like people just hate fighting in the delf starting area.The maps are horrendous, the geography is insulting and delfs are not a fun enemy.
>>539100996place your army on one side and run nkari and some other speed demons to the opposite side bust open the gate and capture objectives or something
>>539019101>wrathmongers>implying Arbaals campaign lasts long enoughKek
>>539101648because some of them are still on the ladders, so monkey see, monkey do
Would you?
>>539104857Smite that abomination in the name of ze lady? Yes.
Does Settra supposed to be the chariot guy or does he have another doomstack option? They're very micromanage intensive and I don't have the patience top deal with it especially in larger battles.
>>539105436If you don't want to micro the chariot put him on sphinx then fire and forget.
>>539105436Why would you ever doomstack chariots? They have very defined strengths and weaknesses.
>>539105436Chariots or Tomb Guards, but since Kangz Chariots sucks, just use Tomb Guards with Settra on his Chariot.
>>539105436I only use chariots in the early game, same with skelehorsesOnce you have ushabti and scorpions and snakes online there's no reason to use a flimsy low tier chariot, and now the giants have even went from tier 5 to 4They are good for early chaff clearing thoughAlso doomstacking is both gay and inefficient
>>539108449Boner giant was always tier 4.
>>539108618maybe your tiny version
>>539108618You know what I mean ya cheeky git
What's the best magic available for the Kangz? Shadow?
>>539109341Yeah but you need book for that unless that was changed in rework, haven't played yet. If no book then light, or nehekhara for chaff skeleton armies to spam cheapest spell for healing.
>>539109612Think they changed because the first priest I got as Settra came with Shadows.

>attack army>pyrric victory >try to fight it for better results, think its impossible, reload the quicksave>valiant defeatHUH
>>539111729did you fuck with the difficulty?
>>539111729Given your army comp you should have taken the pyrrhic victory, the AR was favoring you despite the fact his army hard counters you and youre facing a level 50 Tamurkhan which is more or less unkillable, send it to Legend he might be able to win
>>539111729It saw you eat shit and changed its internal calculations.
>>539111946I did notturns out the +8 leadership from that banner i forgot about was the difference between life or death in that calculationjesus
>>539112663>the cannons survivedAt least the only valuable units in that army made it out fine
>>539112663>*Comes back next turn with a full stack in your path*How do you respond without sounding irritated?
>>539112786>irondrakes not valuable
>>539112874>in an army with no frontline
>>539112816thankfully I have two other armies eating his other provinces from the north and west and already spent about 7 turns as ungrim doing some guerilla warfare taking settlements in this regionI think his faction will be wiped out in 2 turns at most. hopefully he does come back though so I can get his defeat trait on another lord
>>539112874>>539112965using flame drakes over trollhammer torpedo drakes is the real issue here, flamethrower is fine but also not better than trollhammer torpedoes
>>539111729>>539112158how is this not an easy pyrrhic victory? looks like a lot of large monsters against slayers and cannons to snipe high value targets
>>539113360It's not like you use them for the same stuff.
>>539113557Not enough shit to actually block for all those ranged unitsIt would be fine if there were slow ass chosen taking up slots but that entire army is a fast rushdown
>>539113557The biggest issue here is the cavalry and Tamurkhan
Can someone explain why this keeps happening? This has happened 3-4 times already where I will go to war with someone, and it says my vassals join me, but they end up joining the opposing side instead.I tried using the better vassals mod but that just stops my vassals from leaving me when they refuse joining a war, has no effect on this issue.This has happened with multiple different enemies, different vassals, declaring war vs being declared war on, no common variables or indication that it happens if you don't check diplomacy yourself.I'm about to drop this campaign, I can't keep sinking resources into peace treaties with vassals that I shouldn't be at war with in the first place.
>>539114584for clarity, the Manyan Phygria faction is the faction this time around, you can see they joined me as my vassal for the war declaration, but in my relations tab they are no longer my vassal and actually at war with me

>>539120924Throt
>>539123368People are so mind broken by TW2 they still think balancing never changed.
>>539123368They are too fragile thoughbeit, if we have royal chariot guard from TOW then it might be worth using until the lategame.
>>539121478Depends on who's playing295 wins by how many players? What if it's just ten?
>>539123368They're not bad but against lategame AI spam of high tier units they lose relevance, chariots and catapults just aren't worth the building slotObviously if SP army comps were like MP where chaff is everywhere they would be solid
>thing le bad>because I SAID SO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>539124839Dark elves were ALWAYS the most played faction in mp as far as I could remember. Even at their shittiest the had a ton of players.

>>539114584bullgarians can manage some things but total war diplomacy has no hopeyes hatti is supposed to use vassals but fuck having ai on your side it never was good and never will be goodjust tick the option to allow all traditions and pick the shekel merchant one so you get caravans as every faction

How is it possible that we got a GIGA SOVL LL like >>539126679 in the same DLC which had this >>539130178 soulless mook?
>>539130468https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3238432277your SOVL, sir.

>>539132398But that's her vanilla appearance though, dunno why you're calling it a cheat
Sending one trillion bajillion crowns per week to the Karaz Ankor to pay for Cannons because they're so weak and unprotected they need more and more Cannons they need more Cannons in the Karaz Ankor they need as many Cannons as we can get. They-- in the Testaments of Sigmar it says "thou shalt give Dawi Cannons. thou shalt give Dawi all the Cannons they need". And when I look at the amount of crowns-- the amount of crowns that's RAPED from me. That I have bled and sweat for I say "y'know what? I'm not paying enough. I'm not paying enough. I should be paying taxes on WINDOWS".
>>539126679lol!
>>539132854She looks like she's missing more than that
>>539132854Louen was giving me this shit earlier as Settra, I think it's some kind of french slur
what is a ll i can just send into battle and win? I don't want to strategy im retarded
>>539134808
>>539135182The easiest are the ones who can fly or charge in on a big monster and drop a fat vortex/bombard spell to just delete whatever blob they're standing in
how strong are lizardmen and tomb kings post patch?apparently tomb kings are strong now but I don't believe it
>>539135691TK are great just try to use Tomb Guard for every frontlineThen obviously Ushabti of both kinds and Necropolis Knights will carryStalkers and Scorpions aren't as good but still do well
>>539130132Yeah I guess I should have seen it coming knowing how vassals are in other games, still frustrating though, especially now that it happens for every new war. The campaign is basically over now unless I want to spend 20 turns letting my borders fall while I deal with my vassals that are almost as strong as I am.It probably does have something to do with the benevolent tradition that Hatti gets, since I haven't had this issue in other campaigns, but I also haven't been using vassals much so maybe it just never became an issue.There is a lot of good traditions in the game, shame that both of Hatti's involve vassals but at least you don't have to choose them.
Slaughter!

Are there any cool campaign mods that add or change the current campaigns in a relevant way?I know about the TOW one, are there any others?IM is getting tiring with the full minute turn phases.
>>539139479TOW is even longer, though I guess you could try the reduced size version I wanted something fast with bigger more focused continents so I just went back for Vortex while I wait 1 of the 2 more weeksI miss WH2 witch elves
Why is it that in many maps, even if you are on the defensive, garrisoned in your own tier 3 settlement, it seems that the battle map benefits the attacker? That you are more exposed, on a lower ground, etc. as a defender? It doesn't make any sense, so many things in this game seem to be overlooked, and it has been 10 years like this.
>>539140501For most of the life of this series defensive battles were so easy they were almost trivial, and you could essentially beat anything by just drawing large AI armies into siege battles and annihilating them to a man with much smaller and cheaper garrisons.With the newer games, they deliberate design the siege maps to be ugly and miserable to play on so that you can be forced into unwinnable battles that aren't worth playing out and materially set back your campaign, because TCALUK has mastered the art of game design.
>>539140501Because literally, literally ALL fucking maps are designed to be balanced for MP. If something doesn't work in this stupid game it is because the retard developers thought they could turn this niche strategy rpg genre into an e-sport, and they are still with this fucking mindset and the mp crybabies on the forums perpetuate all this fucking garbage game design.
>>539140962It's funny because it's true and I've seen this time and time again. I've been on 'both' sides too (sometimes SPgod, sometimes competitive tournament-playing MPfag) and every time, MPshittery (enforced by the devs) ruin the games every time. MP in of itself is fine, but when the MPfags get too cocky, and when the devs get too weak and forceful, it's ugly. Stale.
why does my ll sometimes stop chasing for no reason even if theres nothing blocking him
>>539140962mpfags dont even even use the official maps and want everything to be perfectly mirrored
>>539141852BECAUSE THE GAME SUCKS!!! OKAY!!?!!?
>>539142301ok sorry!!!
>>539140962To be fair, when they released the game it was the peak of e-sports faggotry with LoL and other games making massive numbers and having a gigantic ecosystem of sponsors for teams and such that brought millions, everyone was trying to jump on the bandwagon.

>>539147945I think i'm feeling rather grim over this.
>>539148109Perhaps even grave?
Why does the gatehouse keep opening but I can't go in or attack it?
>>539149731it's the spaghetti code, please understand.
>>539140501It's presumably to try and handicap you and help the AI. They actually have honestly made the AI smarter - I am not saying by a lot, but I remember in R1 and M2 they'd just charge right into your front and fucking die (general, that is) whereas now cavalry flank obsessively by the AI.>>539114584Oh christ now I'm wondering if the generals have pngs for their standing around on the diplomacy screen. If they do and it's not just auto-generated from whatever they are wearing then fuck changing their gear. Now I need to check.
>>539149731if defenders are exiting near it itll open the gate, sometimes i feel like the AI will close it on attackers on purpose
Will the next Total War be the first true AAAA game?
>>539149731It's pretty baffling that in Mark of Chaos (2008) you can manually open the gate, and in this game it can be pretty janky.
>>539140962why would it be mpfags fault some random battle map is unbalanced? why would they want unbalanced maps? I dont even think you can play mp on those random maps
>>539150213it'll be the first AAAAA so $120
>>539144738Spiders are great. I've started replacing my cavalry with the big spiders and they're 100% better at instantly deleting units when they hit from behind.I think they are better than their stats indicate for some reason. Maybe something with their animations? Dunno.
>>539150514maybe because many of their model can actually attack at once, just like the doggo.
>>539150624Yeah, that's probably it.They're like doggos but better. And auto-resolve doesn't fuck them over.
>>539149916>portholes>it isLiterally no fucking way for me to replicate CA's work there since they are HD renders. Welp. Wait, maybe it's just if people set it to 2d mode. Okay thank god, 3d portholes and they are VMD based. I can edit the generals appearances and not have to match the portholes (even if 2d players will suffer the discrepancy). Medieval 3, save me from my modding autism for Pharaoh.>>539150213Rockstar games starts up a new series line. Grand Tactical Autocrat. Total costs of development match the Manhattan project. Wait a second.>The Manhattan Project cost approximately $2 billion by 1945, which is equivalent to roughly $30 to $40 billion in today's dollarsOkay Geets 6 is 'only' 2 billion. IF it had been a match for the Manhattan project I'da laughed.
I think replacing ca with ai would probably be an improvement
>>539151825replacing it with the game's ai?

>>539153421at least in campaign i've never really had a problem with bretonnia peasants routing before very low hp when you want them to anyways, its them just getting ripped to shreds thats the problem
>>539147643Use a cheat to make Sigvald Slaanesh
>>539149916>>539151059There are rare occasions with the way my game is set up where their diplomacy spot will be a white rectangle, and also similarly their icon walking around the map is a placeholder Merneptah icon. I am using 2d though, and it only seems to happen on rare occasions where the ai has no living generals that turn.>>539152157I've tried them both now, they both give really good rewards, but both campaigns also ended in failure so doesn't really seem worth it.>>539152256I was going for something similar, seeing it as an uprising. It doesn't feel worth it at this point in the campaign though, because I overextended and was relying on my Vassals to keep my lands safe while all my armies are in Assuwa and Assyria.
Building Bretonnian brothels should give you some diplomacy bonus with Kislev.
>>539154965Oh yeah I was just paranoid because I hate editing pngs. Like between the ancient egyptian style UI cards and the realism ones I am only bothering to update the ancient ones because the alternative is functionally impossible - CA did fancy rendering that my cheap ass tweak editor screenshot and remove the green (tedious as hell) couldn't match.So when I release my shit if someone doesn't run ancient portraits/UI cards there's nothing I can really do for em. But if generals were unavoidable to have 2d portends I'd have been fucked.

But if you can contextualize and justify it like that then it works.>>539155714That's all journos except the based ones who do deep dives into serious topics for a long span of time. Or the ones who risk getting blown up in a warzone.Gossiping hen ones can fuck off.

>>539161249needing to destroy enemy factions vs harassing them (in most cases) is the biggest problem imothis is because of how close most of the settlements are together, and how the ai behavesthis just turns every game into a railroad kind of feel where you just go from one settlement to the next before the ai gets too strong, again in most cases there is always exceptions

>>539168924>Piglike in appearance
>>539161249I explained this a few threads ago but the basic idea is that doesn't actually force you to get good at fighting battles so all "challenge" ends up being on the campaign map which is extremely one dimensional and simplistic. most strategy games are actually designed to be easy so people can beat them and feel like they outsmarted the game, but in other rts games like age of empires or warcraft 3 you at least have to sort of learn how to play in order to beat the campaign, especially on higher difficulties. on the other hand modern tw has so many cheat mechanics and ai exploits that you can fairly easily win battles while having no idea what half of your faction's units do or even while completely misunderstanding the fundamental game mechanics. case in point how many people are there that regularly beat campaigns on legendary who think cavalry is useless? even if you play with single digit apm and are totally clueless you can just stack up your cheat mechanics and steamroll every fight with your 80md zombies or 90 armor peasants or whatever unit you decided to crutch on. eventually you get to a point where you can use autoresolve, the biggest cheat of all, to completely skip what should be the main part of the game.as a consequence all difficulty in a campaign relating to battles only exists for the initial turns before you can get your cheats stacked up enough. beyond that since the campaign layer is so simplistic the only thing the game can do to make things "challenging" is throw more fights at you, but since fights are easily winnable using your doomstack the challenge isn't real. the only thing the game can do to actually threaten you is to throw more armies at you than you are able to fight, but there are diplomacy cheats and economic cheats to get around that too. eventually you get to a point where all of the entertainment value the game was supposed to offer has been bypassed and you are just playing retard coloring book with the map.

>look at old Warhammer art and lore>look at Age of Shitmar art and loreIt's so soulless. So goy'd.If CA's next game is actually Age of Shitmar they might actually go out of business.

>>539185067I wonder how long they can keep 40k (relatively) kino.That slipup with the Custodes was...pretty bad. Wonder if they just wanted some Blackrock funding.Also the animations they've released seem aimed at Middle Age women? I'm not sure but I haven't seen any male MC's in them except for maybe 1 space marine. Kinda cringe.
>>539185262>Hyenas 2Which one was in development first? Hyenas or these games?
>>539184891Is that pic said Shitmar art? Those proportions look awful.
>>539185629Yeah that wasn't the best example. I just didn't feel like looking.
I can't believe Age of Shitmar got rid of the "willpower of the average dude vs. horrors beyond imagining" in favor of more Space Marines.In 40k we have both, but in Age of Shitmar, you get picked to be a Shitmarine based on your bravery. So if you ARENT one, you're just a shitty person.What a stupid concept. And the shitmarines respawn? What's the point.

This is legit the most difficult quest battle I have played so far in the entire game, like what the fuck.
>>539187135I probably played it poorly and should have gone with a more dedicated anti-large army, the pic doesn't seem as brutal as it was because my ranged units barely suffered casualties but if my hag witches didn't aggro and soak so much damage I would have lost this 100%. Also, confirmed the giant spiders are one of the most broken units in the entire game, the way they surround your units and count as large with relatively high mass and high numbers, you are perma-stuck and getting attacked by like 20 units at the same time, plus poison.

You cheaters.You download cheats off of the workshop and put them into a cheatlist that inside is full of greed and wickedness.You fools.Did not they who made the game make the ideal balance also?But give as requests in the developer Q&A the things included in your cheats and behold-- everything is balanced for you.Your obsession with what is suitable for a mod and unsuitable goes farther than CA intended and does no good for any campaign.>But without my cheats the game gets boring and repetitiveTo that I say woe to you cheaters.You download units and mechanics and factions, placing them in your lists while neglecting what is actually important for a mod-- Balance.

>>539217101You can just watch the trailer. Skrolk now has Nurgle's plagues, Rictus has some oddball decision system, Khalida gets a Vengeance currency, etc. The main things about SFO is that it rebalances the battle system to be more like the tabletop with capped units and explicit counters like rock-paper-scissors (cavalry murders infantry etc), on top of adding bespoke mechanics to all Lords

Which factions in Pharaoh have the most unique playstyles that sets them apart from others?
>>539225317Not her specifically but she looks hot thereI've never looked her up without makeup or anything but I'm guessing you've never fucked anyone that hot
>>539226050The factions in Pharaoh are more or less only separated by what units, buildings and commandments they have, since everything else like gods and traditions can be adopted if you take their land first. That being said, I don't think the path of the sea peoples is available to anyone else without changing game settings, so maybe one of them? They both have fun unique units too (harpoons for Iolaos and ox carts for the Peleset)The minor Canaanite faction in Mesopotamia has a unique start position with early access to camelry and bordering several different realms, but it is still a minor faction.
>>539224513based
>>539226050Hard to say. I think most of them are more more or less about as unique as each other. Like >>539227013said, they tend to have some different areas of emphasis but are broadly similar. I'd probably agree that the Sea Peoples have the most unique campaigns, whereas Seti, Ramasses and maybe Tausret are perhaps the most generic.
>playing as Kairos>decide to spam reveal shroud on all factions>the majority of big factions have 5-10 full armies around each major city doing nothing>some are even getting attrition through desertion because they are daemons with no income fielding 20-30 armies with 2 regionsthis is never getting fixed, is it?

>>539238557what isn't bad for you these days?
>>539238763Lancers and Legion are good. Sorry they just are. Let me guess, cycle charigng too hard?
>>539237321They're really fun.No idea what these other niggers keep talking about.>can make army of monsters>can make army of guns>can make army of sleds and cavalryThis is one of the best factions if you like using different kinds of units. I can't imagine not having fun with kislev, whenever you use an army composiiton that's boring you can just change to something else completely different.
>>539238854>>539237848>>539238240>>539238557Why use horses or bears when spiders are cheaper and don't need to cycle charge to be effective?
>>539238923They're brainwashed into believing you can only use Kislev warriors and kossars and if you dare deviate you're going to lose the campaign.
It is actually impossible to have fun as Kislev ever since ToT was announced because one of their primary enemies is Norsca, and the entire time you are left with the afterthought that no matter how much fun the campaign is, it will be better once the dlc releases. There is no fun in longing.
>>539237321Yes, the new mechanic is much better than the old civil war, although it can give some headache at times. If you want more guns, I recommend the Guns of Erengrad mod.
>>539239092>don't need to cycle charge to be effective?What are you a fucking microlet?
>>539239294TRVKEA campaign is defined by your early game enemies. Norsca is just not a complete faction and won't be until Tides comes out it never will
Speaking of Kislev, what's the master plan as Boris? Do you play like a bitch and go south to take Praag or do you man up and fight gayos on their turf?
>>539239376yes
>>539239669Archaon and Arbaal are your biggest threats but if you can beat them you can basically do whatever.
>>539239669>If you're Boris, do you be like Kostaltyn and Katarin and waste his benefits, or like Boris and use his benefits?Hmm...
>>539239825That's ok this is the most casual RTS
>The Empire, officially the Empire of Man, sometimes called the Sacred Empire, and named the "Land of the Hammer and the Wolf" by the Norscans, is an electoral monarchy composed of semiautonomous feudal states called "Electoral Provinces" or "Grand Provinces." The Empire is the largest, most populous, most powerful and most important of the nations of Men in the Old World.>The Empire was forged by the warrior-king and ascended deity Sigmar from the primitive tribes of Human barbarians who inhabited what became the lands of the Empire more than 2,500 years ago. Although not as skilled in craftsmanship or engineering as the Dwarfs or in magic as the High Elves, the people of the Empire are not beholden by the limits of tradition to the same extent as the Elder Races and continue to progress culturally, technologically and magically.>Having yet to succumb to any threat, external or internal, it is the faith, the sense of righteousness, and the unconquerable spirit of the realm's citizens which gives the Empire its strength, as well as the ruthless efficiency of its military and religious orders. The greatest and most powerful realm of the Old World, the Empire is ruled by a monarch with the title of the "Emperor of Man" or simply "emperor" and is composed of the descendants of the ancient tribes of Mankind united by the great Human warrior Sigmar Heldenhammer after the Battle of Black Fire Pass over twenty-five hundred years ago.How is it possible to feel so much fervent loyalty to a fictional empire?Why would ANYONE play anything but them?Ugh, time to start a new Empire campaign.Glory to Sigmar.
How come these frost witches don't have traits?
>>539240675They're alright I guess
>>539241023Because they get traits as they get trained by the KGB (Kislev Glacier Bureau) you impatient baka
>>539241023>Cheats
>>539240675This post has my consent.

>>539240675Bit weird how in terms of sqkm the Empire forestmogs Athel Loren
>>539241421Lore wise Athel Loren is fucked up and its borders don't really reflect how big it actually is or some shit.
As someone who is lazy, there is nothing more satisfying than playing Helmen Ghorst and painting the map with nothing but full stacks of Zombies (Chosen)
>>539241582Yeah space and time are a meme there, you can go in for a day and come out a century later
>>539241773Post what his army looks like.if it isn't Ghost + 19 zombies...
>>539241773I was so excited for a zombie focused shitstack campaign until I realized they could just 1v1 any unit in the game (eventually)The only time I lost a single unit was if the AI focus fired on the approach with every archer unitWhich is odd because that's also the only time I've ever seen the AI do that, usually they prioritize certain targets but within reason, those elves had literally every archer unit firing at one zombie unit before it could get into hunger melee
>>539240675BASED!
>>539243815isn't Franz married?
>>539243925https://warhammerfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Maria-Luise_von_WalfenRacemixers on suicide watch
>>539243925He was a known playboy throughout his youth and Volkimar is still bitter he would miss out on sunday preachings to go gamble. He married his cousin but also he slept with Emmanuelle because she wanted the Elector Seat of Wissenland because she likes Nuln so much and shes also CFs with Franz.

>>539245176Holy kek

>>539241224His VA deserves all the medals Karl probably has
>>539246062N'kari's is my favouritehttps://youtu.be/VXcTKe0X1ZA
>>539240675>Empire mentioned
>>539226050in northern anatolia there is a minor faction with the best cavalry in the gameyou can get that as every faction by just taking the land though
>Just noticed Karl doesn't use any hand protection whatsoever.>While using a weapon with no guard.Ouch.
>>539243925He gets mentioned as married but still a big player in the Prince of Altdorf mini-novel (there's hints that he's gone wenching with Marius Leitdorf recently), and is said to be unmarried in every other lore source, but those sources are older (though PoA also came out after ET officially ended the setting and was made by CA). So, who fucking knows. In either case, it doesn't seem to be an obstacle for him.
Holy shit the sky lantern sucks dick why would you ever use this unit willingly
Considering there are multiple nations of humansisn't it a bit arrogant that they named themselves the Empire of MAN?What about the brets or the border princes or the estalians
>>539248963reading the armybook they pretty much always just call it "the empire"
>>539248963there's like 30 someodd countries between north and south america and yet only one of those is called america
>>539240675stirland has coolest CoA out there
>>539248963bretonnians aren't human
>>539248963ETERNAL RULER OF MANKIND
>>539248963Sigmar's original idea was to unite ALL men into one nation to reach the maximum potential of the whole species (minus the ones that worshipped Chaos). He just wasn't able to convince all of those other ones before he ascended to godhood and left. Afterwards, you might argue that his descendants continuing to use the name is in fact kind of arrogant because they don't keep trying to convince the others to join, specially when they also weren't able to keep Solland alive or stop Marienburg from seceding.>>539249659That just kinda proves the arrogance point.
>>539250083It's not arrogance if you actually are that important
>>539240675The Empire has some... Scant few virtues, I suppose.At the very least, they're mostly not Norscans, so I suppose they can't be all bad.
What is the Total War game most close to TWW in terms of mechanics?
>>539253569TWW2.
>>539253716Hilarious, anon.Truly a kneeslapper.
>>539253941I'll be here all week
>>539253941funny rats :)
>>539253941fuck it's easy to forget the skaven are horrifying
>>539253569Rome 2 is similar to warhammer 1, not so much 2 or 3
>>539186030Space Marines sell better than the entire Warhammer Fantasy setting did. It's what the market asked for.
>>539249659>>539250083They called themselves "The United States" similar to the Dutch "United Provinces" and just attached "of America" at the end just in case some similar confederation would arise elsewhere, which almost did as the Hapsburgs were spitballing "The United States of Austria-Hungary". Later as the other countries of the Americas were created out of the empires none tried to incorporate America into their names so it became a nickname for the United States by both it's own citizens and the rest of the world.
>>539250083>That just kinda proves the arrogance point.The US just started out as a "union of states in America." The emphasis was on the United States part. If you read their constitution the word America is used only two or three times in the whole document.It became more commonly called with just the word America after it became more important than the rest of North and South America combined.
>there's island in the british isles that's called the Isle of MAN>there's a german car manufacturer called MANneither of these cunts praise sigmar
>>539248963Its a riff on the Holy Roman Empire.

>>539256535is this loss?
>>539254974>The United States of Austria-HungaryThat might have worked if the Hungarians didn't throw a big sharty.
