Thanquol soon, friends!
>TWWH 1 is dark and gritty, evoking the dark fantasy of Warhammer Fantasy perfectly>After 10 years of releases the game is reddit personified
Be a good person
>>543649791nigger it didnt have banners and couldnt even get the empire aesthetic right
>no DLC for 12 months>big next dlc announced in december and probably released in march (may) at the earliestSo, fantasyfags. What was that about you carrying Total War on your back? What was that about CA going bankrupt without you?Wanna expound on that? Huh? Wanna dig into that a bit? Eh?
Sqvire, give me hopium that the DLC won't flop
Warhammer 3 > Warhammer 2 > Warhammer 1
>>543650191...on the reddit scale
Any stand out units I should be using as WRE in Attila? I'm not real familiar with the time period and my roman knowledge ends around 20 BC.Also is the general tactic just to throw everyone in testudo and cycle charge with cav/ shoot with crossbowmen?
>>543650180it has... it uh...it has boobs

>>543650361Javelins and ranged units in general are quite good, as you seem to have discovered.Scout Equites really are good good for their cost, altough they are definitely a glass cannon.>Also is the general tactic just to throw everyone in testudo and cycle charge with cav/ shoot with crossbowmen?Pretty much, but describes most total wars.
storm clouds gather... our threads are beset by shitposters... both mundane... and ban evading...
>>543650361I recommend upgrading your Cohors and Limitanei as soon as possible.Swords perform much better in melee than spear units but the catch is that cavalry is really overpowered in Attila.Defensive Testudo is amazing at blocking arrows, holding chokepoints and surviving cavalry charges.Get those Legio and go raze some barbarian settlements.
>>543649791You must have mistake TWW1 with Attila.
Since the new games are being announced in december, CA has probably received budgets (or commissions or whatever they call it) for them long ago.DLC sales are a supplementary income at this point.

>>543649929the empire is an npc faction so it doesnt matter
>>543650886Who?
>>543650949r*ddit users are also people.
>>543650712How's this general army template soundGeneral, 6 Swords (main line), 4 spears (2 on each flank) 4 Crossbows, 4 cav (2 melee, 2 shock) 1 large onager.
>>543650886it aint shit until custom siege maps are in
>>543649791Warhammer isn’t dark at all, it’s grim derp. Shogun 3 when btw
Warhammer fantasy only got grimdark in 8th ed, you read the 6th ed rulebook its like a slightly darker lotrThe first pages literally contains Sigmars saga and the words "Hear these words and live in hope"Of course 40kslopers ruined everything
Imagine being a Sylvanian peasant.
>>543649791In what world was TWW1 "dark and gritty"?
>>543652445I think I'd rather die and be a mindless zombie.
>>543652478skull mountains = dark and grittyduh
>>543651146Onager? Is that a Skaven thing? But they don't have Cav.
>>543652445Vlad sounds better than most bretonnian lords desu

Just starve lmao>Beastmen and Greenskins raid your towns on a weekly basisThen imagine being peak Stockholm Syndrome Sylvanian peasantchad:>Harvest is always bad but taxes are near zero so you make do>Zero beastmen or Greenskin raids since Vampires actually protect their cattle>As "tax" you give them one of your daughters (out of dozens since you have enough food and theres nothing else to do but fuck so you have 14 daughters already)>When "War Calls(tm)" not a single peasant is drafted, its all zombos and skellies, maybe couple volunteer Crossbows join
>>543653459I wouldnt want to be a peasant at all, but if I had to choose...
>>543596338I know and its a dam shame they have not utilized the trailer music since some of it is actually some of the best music they made for the game.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGQgbrIIxPg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hoiks2rQa9o https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IgtF1H0JUCQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2jNuJXoKFvI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WrX1aGHK1lM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OiHvsinEn58
>>543653714Warden&Paunch trailer music is my white whale.
>>543650180It won't, units are good and not reskins. At least 2 of the factions are popular. Reworks and mechanics sound good.
>>543653994>units are good and not reskinsExcept for the Dooki anointed and maybe Slaangors*Forgot about those
>>543653968cant you run the trailer through an ai program that removes the dialogue

TOTAL WAR: WARHAMMER: WARCRAFT
Damn, DEI is kind of like sensory overload. None of the mechanics explained, there's a bunch of new things to track like population types and sanitation, even fucking local banditry. Not to mention the 5 different types of each unit that does the same thing. This is a history autists wet dream.It's running like shit though, massive loading times even on SSD. Apparently you have to put the mod files somewhere else to fix this. I'll try that and report back if anyone cares.
>>543655449>>543654643The same assumptions as made here. Some are absolutely not confirmed.
I love WH3 but don't know spit or dick about any of the lore I just like when Orcs yell and smash things
>The labour districts are where the Skink handlers farm out Kroxigor labour for favour or a priceKroxigor prostitutes and Skink pimps confirmed
>>543657385I dont know what that is but why is that fella carrying what looks like a diving helmet/mechwarrior neurohelmet?
>>543655484How would you "pet" water? Your hand would go into them?
>>543658894I tried DEI but couldn't get into it, it was too complicated for my warhammer brain. Might try it in another 100 hours when the game becomes too easy.>It's running like shit though, massive loading times even on SSD. Apparently you have to put the mod files somewhere else to fix this. I'll try that and report back if anyone cares.I do this for my other mods and it is significantly faster, went from 5 minutes to load to 20-30 seconds. I do crash every so often during loading screens, but I think it's an unrelated issue since clearing up my hard drive made it happen less often.

>>543660965That's how it feels to fight Skarbrand without having the plot armor of bad writing.
>>543661417He completely trounced level 50 cheat bernhardt when I ran into him at 43
>>543659309its a combat helmet that's designed to help its wearers adapt to harsh environments.As to why hes carrying it, the man basically wears it for the entire game, hes allowed to vibe with it off. Also the sound track for the game is good, give them a listen. https://youtu.be/N1lA-COyWYA?si=FjlKzgKVrFWdszSJ
>>543661902As expected of the best demon
he's dead but at what cost? it'll be 10 years before I can recruit another war sphynx and that tomb prince wasn't immortal yet
>>543653459>get succ'd by a busty vampfu once a weekoh no the horror!!!
>>543662516You're getting the bald wiry wizard dude and you will make do with it. Or not, because he's extra hungry and antisocial today and he's just gonna go all the way both for food and to avoid dealing with you.
Remember to never charge your enemy's rear, that's gay
>>543662442>Going at Skarbrand without archersBy Djaf...
>>543650361Whatever your spear unit is to turtle horseniggersAlso legioLegioMore legion and some legioRoma invicta!
>>543662442>Practically zero ranged VS KhorneYou're lucky you got off that easy, honestly.
>>543649791Game peaked during wh2. They still had the fantasy horror aesthetic, just take a look at how chaos spawn look in wh2, those things are outright horrible. Now chaos spawn are smoother and less threatening, more like a wow mob. This change in the art direction affected every new creature they added to the game, only races like the vcunts have stayed horrible because CA's lazy asses haven't updated their models since the first game.
>>543664121>Now chaos spawn are smoother and less threateningArent they basically the same but another color
How do you use these hybrid units effectively that can fire on the move, but are far better off charging into melee vs a fair few opponents (and will reliably shred them)? Toggling on and off that melee mode constantly is getting a bit tiresome, as is having to remember to disable skirmish every battle.
>>543662442Might want to bring more than one catapult as your ranged firepower vs Khorne in future.
>>543665225Alt+right click is quick melee charge for ranged, I only bother clicking melee mode for ranged chariots like cold one chariots or skeleton archer chariots Skirmish mode default is in options somewhere, I haven't had it on for ages
>>543655426Fed with longma of course

>>543666563Watching my yellow line lord solo a dragon is more kino than any of that other crap
>>543666936>why the fuck dont defending units rout INTO the city???Don't be absurd, only attacking units get to route INTO the city and start fucking up your backlines, that's just realism.
>>543666936Fighting to the death is what irks me, not because they had some dumb special rule, but because circumstances dictated they must (because they can't just phase through the encirclement lmao)
>>543667254>One prideful Bretonnian lord rushes ahead to claim the glory for himself, to his downfallLudonarrative kino, actually
>>543662442where are your archers retard
>>543666563A hist game could still draw me back if they lean into every unit being the same human, and just making the animation system absolutely godlike, units actually responding to what is around them and swarming organically to the point where it just looks like a cinematic battleBut CA could never perform such technical wizardry
>>543667332No one cares about the yellow stains in your pants, nerd
>>543667386>it's not a bug>it's a featurei'll accept it in this case
how do i properly counter the flying niggers as beastmen? the herdstone had manticores, but i don't want that shit in a normal army and harpies aren't very good at the job

>>543670113Always has been.
>>543670113I saw lore somewhere that zombies do the menial farm work when vampires are in chargeSo it's not all bad
>>543669182>mfw I assumed you're talking about an entire faction that you refer to as "the flying niggers"Anyways just wait for shit to land then jump it, the whole point in beastmen is being fast as fuck
Have you guys seen just how busted Blessed Saurus Warriors are?
>>543673121Yeah whatever patch showed fatigue as stats is really stressing how strong perfect vigor isI haven't played them since their little rework though, did they get even stronger in typical powercreep fashion?
TW is dead.
>>543669182beast caster can summon a manticore, and buff it to be able to snipe any other flying unit when buffed by the moon spell and/or lore of beasts buffsnot to mention the lore of beasts is incredibly underrated and good for beastmen specifically since they use a lot of rush infantryotherwise you can just wait for flying units to land and pin them down with monstrous infantry while a damage dealer kills them
>>543673443bitch its only beginning
>>543673443It's Mostly Negative and MixedWhy do you guys even play a game that bad?
>>543673441Not much stronger. They were always busted in battles, now it's just slightly easier to get the ball rolling, especially when you can just buy blessed saurus and blessed big dinos before you can actually recruit them
>>543673804>bitch its only beginning
>>543673121Yeah they’re nuts. The icon is deceptive, even though they’re majority non-AP they have more AP damage than most elite infantry
>the enemy brings 200 more troops than me>3300 late game troops vs 3500 early game troops>heroic victorythis game doesn't make sense sometimes
>>543674046The KINOest trailer for TW2. Made me a instant dork elf fan.

Imagine facing a roman legion back in the day... As you and your fellow barbarians charge them, they all throw pilums at the same time, maiming or killing many to your left and right. They then immediately draw their spathas and counter charge. Life back then was crazy.

>>543677001Are witch elves and sisters of slaughter any good, dark elf sensei?
>>543677193nta but witch elves are as good as you are, glass cannon as you'd expect, don't waste their fentanyl on something they can hit easily anywayssisters ehh if you're going to sink gold it can go elsewhere
>>543677193After the retarded rampage changes witch elves are now a better unit that the sisters. They are excellent flanking blenders. If you are playing as granny you can replace corsairs with them as your general melee infantry.

Should I do a rome campaign in rome 2 before playing WRE in Attila? I'm not doing DEI or anything, I aint got time for all that.
>>543677193Witch elves always perform way better than I expect from their stats, as long as you keep them safe.

should I just stop using regular skeleton chariots after unlocking the archer version or is there something about it that makes it worse?
>>543669182Manticores are fine in a beastmanii army since you can just re-recruit them immediately after rampage gets them killed. In general though your air game is weak.
>>543684243You can use them to screen or tie down other units to not hit your more valuable archer chariots, or throw them into the riskier melee engagements to preserve your more valuable archer chariots.

>>543683570Funny enough when the game came out the AI was perfect in avoiding the spell by halting ranged units. But the enshitification of TW caused it all to fall apart.
>>543687226I seem to remember it changing from a wall that blocks missiles to a debuff that affects the enemy unit, could be remembering it wrong though.

>>543688585Total War: Chronicles of Narnia.
>>543689141It's bizarre to me that anyone still gives a single flying fuck about Star Wars at this point, it's a ravaged and maggot ridden corpse of a franchise. About the only IP I can think of off the top of my head that's in a worse state is Warcraft.
>>543689526Those books are trash, C.S. Lewis got way too deep into his religion, he flat out kills off one of the major characters in the later books just to try and force a point about how evil backsliding is. Absolutely garbage fiction, just a bunch of Christian talking points poorly wrapped up behind a tattered and barely there facade of fantasy.
>>543689613harry potter
>>543689526the first movie was kino
Guys... It's total war trench crusade... That's why they canceled WWI because this one was already being made.
>>543690062Really? It seems to be doing fine to me, as far as I'm aware Rowling maintained control over it so no severe damage to the IP was ever done by incompetent retards, unlike Star Wars or Warcraft which have been driven into utter ruination by the hacks controlling it.
>>543653128I love this trope of a villain saving the day at the 11th hour, not because of a change of heart or redemption, but because doing the right thing in that specific situation was always part of his ideology.Off-topic, but are there other examples of this trope?
Does elf pussy stay tight?
Whose the most fun HE lord in the Vortex campaign?
>>543690565Trench Crusade is beyond retarded, that's the one where the insane authors try to make the setting with literal demons from hell morally comparable to the humans trying to fight them back, because "it's all relative" or some stupid shit.

>>54369142940k/fantasy doesn't paint daemons nuanced
>>543691678Fuck off faggot, the fact you like such puerile trash is reason enough to fully dismiss you and anything you have to say, especially on matters as crucial as what the next TW game should be.
>>543690864I doubt that Morathi's does at any rate.
>>543691810>the fact you like such puerile trashAnon ... you play Warhammer.
>>543692150Warhammer is a much better setting than Trench Crusade could ever even HOPE to be.
>>543692560Eh….its really not. Maybe if we’re talking 40K.
>>543652914It's an old latin word for a catapult, Skaven are not involved in this discussion nor are any other warhammer factions.
>>543691565We expect to be able to deliver Unusual Locations part 2 in August, more news soon.
>>543692681WHFB is a much better written setting than 40K, the fact you actually think 40K is the better setting and not the other way around merely further confirms your lack of cerebral function and resulting absolutely shit taste. Don't reply to me again you disgusting vermin.
luthor harkon herei have come to save you from the coomersby shooting you in your stupid face
>>54369331940k is better. You can tell because it's more popular and still exists
>>543693319Look man, when I think of fantasy I just wish I was engaging with Tolkien or Conan or even something like discworld rather than fantasy battle directly. 40K is much more self contained and is more consistent than fantasy is. Also franz is a cuck, Gorrilaman is my primarch. Simple as.
>>543693319Oh aye, it was so well written that GW stopped selling it due to poor sales, and now its back because some idiots have got their nostalgia goggles on. >>543692560What a ridiculous statement - theres barely even a handful of lore out for Trench Crusade yet. WHFB had 30 years of support and lore and it still got axed.
>>543693319>the fact you actually think 40K is the better setting and not the other way aroundShit, at least 40K isn't direct copy/paste Lord of the Rings with magic and frogs sprinkled on top. Best game GW ever released was MESBG, and it was because they didnt write the lore for it.
>>543694146This honestly
Is tides far away? I feel the urge to play but I know the game is broken. Is cream broken too?
>>543693849I'd love a Discword game, not Total War obviously, but something set in the universe. The 90's point and click adventures are really showing their age.
>>543694282dlc releases on dec 4th. Game is not that broken. They fixed liggers and TKs but AI still starts blobbing around turn 40.

>>543694402Discord got done dirty in the media. It had two decent movies they used to show on sky and some abomination called the watch a few years back.> not Total War obviously,It would work if CA ever got off their asses and worked on expanding the campaign side of stuff again. Imagine the agent videos.

>inflict army losses in 10 minutes>oops, an elite enemy SEM/General is unbreakable>have to spend as much time kiting, plinking and cycle charging himLacking a hero killer these days is a serious handicap
>>543702325Ungrim should be buffed moreVlad should be nerfed more
>>543691334Trench Crusade lore makes me so fucking mad because they didn't even try reading a fucking wikipedia page about the crusades before making the basic concept of the setting.>Hellportal in TC is originally opened up by Knights Templar doing some demon-worshipper shit underneath Jerusalem during the 1st crusadeThe Templars didn't even EXIST during the first crusade. Their order came into existence30 years later as a direct result of the 1st crusade's success.They don't even handwave it with some bullshit excuse of "oh the templars formed earlier in this timeline", they just completely ignore the discrepancy and hope their audience is as ignorant and illiterate as them.It's like they couldn't decide between using le ebil templars meme (which would be 12th or 13th century) or using the historically-accurate ultraviolence of the taking of Jerusalem for their divergence point from IRL history. So they combined both of them, which would each have been fine on their own, into a confused mess of a lore startpoint that makes no fucking sense.The fact that they couldn't be bothered to at least briefly look into the groups that compose such a crucial element of their own setting tells me they're complete and utter hack retards who should not be indulged in the slightest.
>>543705506Isn’t it alt history
>>543705506Don't worry anon, they know all too well that their fans wouldn't know shit about history.
>>543706278Most alt history you assume everything is the same up the the divergence point.They should have known the premise would have attracted history autists.
>>543705506I thought having the Avignon Antipapacy being a literal anitpapacy was clever.Turns out that was about it for clever ideas.
>>543705506>The Templars didn't even EXIST during the first crusade.Neither did a giant fucking portal directly to Hell? Does it really matter?
>>543706841>Neither did a giant fucking portal directly to HellWhat is your evidence for this claim?
>>543702325>>543702823I have ptsd (diagnosed) from fighting Ungrim with my Snaggla Gnobspit armykited and killed his army in about 10 minutes no problem, and then it took something like another 50 minutes kiting hiis midget ass with my spider riders, then my arachnaroks, then cycle charging waagh goblins in and out and waiting for sneaky stabbin to rechargeEver since then I auto resolve Ungrim every time as a rule, and if they have a slayer lord I autoresolve most of the time too
>>543705506youre getting mad a game, that has literally demons from hell, about historical accuracy, thats like complaining that iron harvest has mechs and invented walking tanks the german royal is becoming hitler without the communists revolution, and poland is fighting off germany and russia
>>543706841Bro your India?
>>543706841People who would be into Trench Crusade wouldn't think like that.
>>543707191Haha fuck you Venice
>>543707117I think they fucked up the USA in Iron Harvest.One of the leaders should have been a Blackjack Pershing expy and they shouldn't have been in the middle east.South America would make a lot more sense for 1920s America, alternate or otherwise, pit them against alternate history Empire of Brazil.
>>543707116>Still wonBuff Ungrim
>>543708434you're right they need to give him more speed so he can't be exploited in an unfair manner
>>543705506Isn't that the setting where people where checking it out because 40k becoming less grimdark and over-the-top and the authors had some freak out over "the chuds" coming into the fanbase?
>>543708751Yes
>>543708191i think its fine, theyre coming over to bail out europe in the name of freedom and lawrence of arabia, and the ottomans were important to ww1 since you need oil to run all the mechs, and the middle east has never not been important in european warfare post 19th century for that exact reason
>>543708842Well, how about an Ottoman faction then?
Is it worth it if I am only semi interested in the amazons?
>>543709010theres no ottomans apparently, its just the local tribes, but there is tatars
>>543709452DESTROYER OF MENMost likely. The amazons are a lot of fun and also sexy, but unless you want to play a horde faction (you don't) you're stuck playing as the old lady. You can mostly ignore the Trojan war and just let them fight each other while you focus on your faction quests and monster hunts.I have played 2 Hippolyta campaigns but could never get into anyone else, and it was worth it for me, but not very replayable.
now what
Could Odysseus beat Karl Franz?
>>543705506trench crusade is stupid because your first impression is that it's just alternate history where muslims are demons but then the game does everything it can to step back from that first impression because it's heckin problematic.
>>543712186just like in real life
>>543710640No.
>>543705506They didn't even look at their own lore, how the fuck do demons and after 500 years of war control so little land with retarded border gore and dominate the seas while barely owning any ports compared to christchuds
>>543712514Also logistics, the recruitment of legionaires is retarded. You need to be a pure evil fucker to look at the portal of hell and survive,that already narrows your options meanwhile the population is fucking themselves over. Ritualistic slaughter and murderhoboing is common in heretic cities there is always human flesh in stock in the markets. People here laughed at Dooki for having too much bullshit backstabing and murder death night in their society, ergo they are unrealistic, this deathmogs them in that department lmao
>>543706841Yes, it matters, because the devs have NEVER (to my knowledge) addressed this, which leaves a giant fucking hole in the lore that they have never attempted to patch.Like I said, I would be at least slightly less mad if they even bothered making a blatant handwave saying "Oh yeah the Templars formed before the crusades in this timeline through some other event that made christians want to be warrior monks btw." Because at least there would be an explanation.It also upsets me because using the conquest of Jerusalem as the catalyst for a hellmouth opening up could be really fucking cool if you did it right. Historical accounts written by the crusaders themselves not only discuss how much of an utter slaughter it was, they even BRAG about it. Like the chronicles of it record that the crusaders killed so many of the city's Muslim residents that the city was flooded in blood up to their ankles. Yeah, they were probably exaggerating, but if that doesn't sound like the prerequisite to a fucking demon summoning then Idk what does. If you just rolled with that as the explanation for the Hellmouth's creation, just the result of the sheer gore and death and hatred being unleashed within the city of god, it would be so fucking fitting. It would even add a bit of tragic irony to the Christians' millennia-long war against the demons, knowing that their initial incursion that brought all this misery was ultimately the result of their own zeal.But no, they just had to throw the Templars in and throw all that away.>>543707117pic related
>>543693319
>>543705506I thought it was offensive because it's clearly a creatively bankrupt pastiche of other stuff with generic art station aesthetics, rather than being angry at their lack of a command of history or anything.
Well I decided to give Bretonnia a go after shitting on it so much yesterday, and I don't know if it's undergone significant changes since I last played them or it's just my particular collection of mods, but I'm finding the French bastards rather enjoyable. Poor old Leon'coeur is run absolutely ragged charging back and forth across the countryside putting out fires and trying to keep the other Brettonoa factions alive to confederate. Between Norscans, Orks, Kemmler, Mixus Moussilon, a pair of random beastmen hordes raiding everyone, rebellions, and then that Chaos Daemon guy who Archaeon made his cuck turning up to redecorate Lyonnaise it's been a properly hectic start to the campaign. The peasants aren't quite as shit as I remember them being, and having to cycle charge the knights in and out isn't as much of a chore as I was thinking. Still prefer horsemen who can charge in and stick about mind you, but still, it's workable. Still don't see the point in that "peasant economy" thing, that just seems needlessly irritating. Surely there's always going to be enough peasants you can shove a pointy stick into the hands of and charge them up with religious fervor? It's not like any other faction has similar restrictions on their most basic ass units.
>Orks
>>543714425That's how you spot 40gays.
>>543713463I find it funny how it really seems to tilt some people while I just find the whole idea of the setting rather neat. Templars opened a hellgate in Jerusalem? Cool, those little scoundrels. Christians have to clone Christ and literally eat the flesh of the clones to stand a chance of keeping hell at bay? Awesome. There's a Persian factions with weird alchemists and horrendous flesh beasts? Nice. I just don't overthink it or try and make it make sense in the real world. It's like trying to tie down the lore of Warhammer to real world events, why bother, no?
>>543713463>which leaves a giant fucking hole in the lore that they have never attempted to patch."Templars came early in Trench Crusade universe due to lore we haven't released yet" Job done. It's fictional anon, they can make it work however the fuck they like lol. Shit, it's still in testing FFS, the whole damn thing can be retconned completely and it wouldn't matter.
>>543714425>>543714610Shit, I collect Orks, what can I say? "Orc" feels wrong!
>>543714326>that "peasant economy" thingThat, aside from the vows -or forgetting them- is the most annoying thing about Bretonnia imo. Bretonnia should be able to field massive armies of peasants to bog the enemy down with.I hope we eventually get a skill tree for lords/prophetesses that gives progressively cheaper upkeep costs for the basic peasant units (peasant mobs, men-at-arms, spearmen-at-arms, peasant bowmen) to make it possible to churn out peasant shitstacks, like master necromancers do with zombies and skellies for the Vampire Counts.

>>543713463>it record that the crusaders killed so many of the city's Muslim residents that the city was flooded in blood up to their ankles.If you ever see footage of stabbing/slashings I actually buy this narrative or the Livy(?) one of romans drowning in blood in the field. It wouldn't be ankle deep in wide opening streets but I can entirely see some backalley where bodies allow for blood to pool up to the ankles.I also found claims of 'waaah eurocentricism' funny when that game has it where the Jews, Pagans, Orthodox Christians, Muslims all could hold jerusalem just fine and soberly maintain vigil against the portal to hell but along comes some Franco-Northmen and mon dieu dohonhonhon time to make a pact with Satan.I'm not big on the setting as I am bone tired of grimderp gore, but all the power to it niche wise.

Warhammer is the only total war title I've played. Should I try Rome 2 or Med 2? I imagine I will find the lack of SEMs and heroes less fun but I'm getting into the historic mindset (not talking about the aged games).
>>543719574On the internet everyone does until proven otherwise. And even if it is a woman, it's not going to end with you getting laid. You have the option of assuming male - gaining nothing and losing nothing, and you have the option of assuming female - gaining nothing and looking like a retard when it isn't.

Any fun factions in Attila that provides a decent challenge, but has a cool an interesting roster?I hear people yap about the Langobards, how are they?
>>543719816I wish we'd also return to the "You are just 0s and 1s online", since so many faggots here think their IRL flexing claims matter. It's like they saw the navy seal copypasta and wanted to imitate it.
>>543719597Rome 2 is the closest to warhammer, if you can play caesar in gaul because the politics is disabled or the hannibal one.
>>543718682I usually do it whenever there's a new patch. It's pretty ridiculous that every individual save is 15bm.
>>543650361Also is the general tactic just to throw everyone in testudo and cycle charge with cav/ shoot with crossbowmen?I generally don't quite put EVERYONE in testudo, only the units in need to be a rock the enemy line can break itself against. Even in absence of cavalry, any free infantry unit with room to maneuver can get to work sandwiching enemy units against its friendly units.Remember that cavalry isn't the only thing that can flank and rear charge, they're just the best at it.Also get artillery asap.>>543719985I enjoy playing as the Vandals because they actually get pretty nice naval units.

I don't ever play orcs, can I get a QRD on whether savage orcs are worth recruiting as Gorbad or if you should only ever be recruiting them as Wurrzag because of his buffs to them?What's their use case over regular orc boyz as other LLs?
>>543650361One tip I can give as WRE is to recruit levy units from hordes and vassal states when you can (so long as you have room). As WRE you get an ability which gives a minor cut to army upkeep for having non-Roman units in your armies. It’s also a fantastic way to get cavalry early on, as getting more scout equites requires building up a cavalry corral compared to just drafting some Germanic horsemen without them raising a fuss.

>>543697714No, it isn'tAt allWhy do dunetards have such an inferiority complex towards 40k? This just keeps showing up and its so absurdly embarrassing to read. Dune is a story focused on a single planet, following story of a mary sue jedi and his family with melee only Muslim themed, human centric setting40k aesthetics are Christian, galaxy full of alien life, no single planet is given a focus and instead entire galaxy is being explored, there isn't a single story with protagonists and the biggest focus there is, is on medieval themed knightly orders in space fighting daemons, orks, dinosaurs with guns and other fantasy creatures. And the most iconic weapon is a duo of a sword-chainsaw and a gun If you'd shown 40k art to someone who just watched even new Dune movies and claimed its this same because of some quarternary, irrelevant background lore, you would be called retarded.

>>543650361Early game you have no good offensive units to make plays with, but much better equipment than everyone else so you win the slow grindy fights. Javelins until you can get crossbows serve as your main hammer for the anvil be sure to hold fire until you've gotten around the side to avoid wasting limited ammo into shields.As you tech up, your roster will get lighter, more mobile and more offensive. Protectors Domestici are your power unit, grindy infantry with shield wall earlygame and powerhouse offensive infantry late game. Also high-tier artillery is overpowered in Attila and Rome gets it a tier early in their research tree so make that a priority.Your cavalry sucks so take advantage of your faction passive to recruit cav from passing hordes or make vassals along the German border and levy them.

Finally completed a Sylvania campaign in Warhammer 2.Most of the map was once again taken over by Malekith in the west and Grimgor in the east.

Is there more variety in what factions become dominant in Warhammer 3?

>>543779040Why would you default to Langobards of all things?Franks are one of the stronger and more unique Germanic factions, they just start in a kind of challenging location and are under a lot of pressure to consolidate and expand westward into Gaul ASAP. Laangobards are a weird DLC faction and for some reason use these shitty club units because Sofia is oddly obsessed with them.I'd argue Franks, Saxons and Ostrogoths are the premier barbarian experiences and Alans get an honorary mention because their roster is completely unique.
>>543763208I expected gay SFM rat porn and I was let down.
How do you deal with the game when it turns into that ping-pong back-and-forth whack-a-mole that sometimes happens when you have an enemy on multiple sides and the enemies can summon far more armies than you can asnd you're constantly having your armies running back and forth across your own lands like headless chickens trying to put the fires out? Bit stuck in a situation like that right now, cant seem to progress anywhere without straying too far and getting sacked on the other side of my territory.
>>543786075Focus on killing one of them.doesnt matter even if you lose your capital, you can always take it back.
>>543786075Only build up major settlements, accept that the low tier ones will be cycle sacked. Decide which side of your empire is worth more. Leave a token resistance on the poor side to slow down the enemy, then put the majority on the enemy you want to take down. Don't waste time running across your territory defending it, use your armies to grind a foe into dust then disabnd most of them and re recruit new armies on the other side.
>>543786075You just tunnel vision one enemy and eliminate them. The AI pays a fraction of the upkeep you do, summons armies out of thin air and receives flat income per turn so there is no economic damage you could possible inflict to stop it short of just taking all of their settlements and eliminating them. As long as your army can win battles you can always return and retake lost ground eventually but if you waste tempo moving back and forth without accomplishing anything you'll just remain stuck in an infinite whackamole loop because destroying the AI's cheated army stacks doesn't set it back in any meaningful way.

You should stop commenting on the game and talking about as if you're having any kind of real experience with it, because you're not. That's why it's so tiring to listen to cheatfags discuss the game, because they don't ever actually play the real thing and therefore have no opinions of merit or value to offer about it, yet they are deluded enough to think otherwise since they have somehow convinced themselves they're not cheating, they're "modding". Conveniently, these mods all make the game simpler and easier to beat, of course. Pathetic beyond belief.

>>543799873
Alright peopleShould I do another1: Wood Elf campaign (this time as Durthu instead of Drycha)2: Another Vampire Coast campaign, focusing on Vargheists3: A Vampire Counts campaign, focusing on Strigoi and Crypt Ghoulsor 4: IDK, play another game?I've got nearly 800 hours in TWW3, I'm got it 80% of the way to Platinum. At this point I'm just waiting on the DLC so I can get Slaanesh's Long (hard, throbbing) Victory and then do Dark elves because VCO should be updated by then to have Lokhir.
>>543800606Ogres
>>543800606Play a Thorek campaign.
>>543800976Bro... I have done probably 10 campaigns as ogres. roughly 200 hours of that 800 is on ogres. I can take a break from being the fattest.
>>543801150No.Similarly to >>543801191, I've done a lot of Dwarf campaigns, I don't wish to play (my favorite ngl) faction again right now.
>>543800606Mannfred and get all the books
Bretonnia is boring as fuckDaemon prince I wanna wait until end of lifeSlaanesh I am waiting for TidesDark elves... are shit and as good as shades are, I can't bring myself to play anything but Lokhir, and he's lacking Victory conditionsand I FUCKING HATE SKAVEN I HATE THEIR GAMEPLAY THEY ARE SOMEHOW THE MOST OP AND SHITTY FACTION AT THE SAME FUCKING TIME
>>543802452Bretonnia will get a rework.Deamon Prince might get a rework alongside nagash dlc.N'kari's pokemon campaign is actually pretty good.DEs will get a rework.Play Tretch and spam clanrats. Its the most fun way to play Skaven.
>>543802452>>543803109Daemon prince will never be good
>>543802452cry about it no-fur
>>543798247I could never get it up for a Troll.
What would possess the AI to try for this battle rather than retreat to their settlement? Even auto-resolve was showing as a Close Victory in my favour with Low Casualties. I wasn't even close to threatening its settlements either, it moved two armies into mine. Seems like a really bizarre choice for it to make.
What are the dark elves supposedly missing that people are upset about? They’re already strong and fun.
>>543807445I will take this one step further and say they its better if they don't get anything. Look at the High Elves for example. They are already strong and fun but they are about to be ruined with BS units and OP mechanics.
The dark elf research tree kinda sucks.
>>543807445Strong doesnt mean fun. >Slave mechanic is OP but boring as shit.>Slave and control buildings doesnt make any sense. >Building chains are shit. >Malekith and Morathi (and Lokhir desu) has no mechanics. >Hero skills and traits outdated>Names of power are made for wh2 and in wh3 they are basically useless.>Naggaroth part of the map sucks>DEs still missing magic lores.
>Conga line of AI walking into the same ambush with a lvl 1 solo lord as baitIs...is this really how you win on legendary?

>>543811040For 2 it was lightning strike but yeah kinda
>>543810130You’re never getting the lore of life in TW, Drukek. Or any more at all.
So I’m actually giving Thrones of Britannia a chance and it’s quite good. I fell for the memes that kept me away from this game
>>543807023What is the cheatmod for the chevrons? IIRC AI armies attack after a diceroll determination if they think they have a chance of winning; the actual result is calculated at battle
>>543810130One of the things that actually makes the EoS of TWW3 and the utter collapse of CAs ability to make DLC for the game so satisfying is the fact that High Elves will get a final DLC updating everything, and Dark Elves will remain in basically their TWW2 state forevermore. Broken hearted Dreadlords, weep away.
>>543812375The Pharoh shill is doing a good job making me almost get it; I have not played a his title since Attila
>>543812641Don't bother with Pharaoh. It's still just Troy with spitshine.
Karaz-A-Karak is actually has quite a difficult start. Both Gorbad and Skarsnik are way stronger than you are and you're sandwiched between the two. No wonder they always get wiped out quite fast.
>>543807445You mean mechanics wise or units wise ?
IT'S UPhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpdpVg6TL6k
>>543812641I bought it on launch but never really gave it a good chance. Which is dumb because Attila is one of my favorite total wars (tied with shogun 2 and med 2). It’s not as good as those games but it’s interesting and the setting is fresh.
Lol, either my mods are acting up or Morganna has put on The Mask.
>>543812485>What is the cheatmod for the chevrons?I don't know what you're asking? The knights have just killed a lot of shit. The peasants are only Rank 2 and 3.

>>543817038Must be SFO I had a wee gander at my mods and nothing else seems to even mention the chevrons.
>>543817868I just play on Hard Campaign/Very Hard Battle. If I go higher in the campaign I just find it tedious all the chaff that gets thrown at you, just seems to be the happy sweet-spot for me. I think only masochists play Legendary/Legendary.

>>543822984Agreed. 0 authenticity.
>>543822624I did obligatory frenching in the first two but not three yet, who did you play?
>>543823620Alberic the literally whoVCO has a few rather "easy" routes for him.Namely the "fuck lustria" route was not bad. Yeah VCO may be "CHEATS REEEEEEEEEE" but I feel it allows for more narrative focused campaigns
>>543824018I've been doing the OvN objectives for Grudgebringers cheat and after playing Elspeths RoC campaign, I've started to appreciate narrative campaigns more because I feel much more obligated to sack and raid based on my needs since it isn't tied to settlement "number go up count"; I may try out the overhaul in future playthroughs since it looks like they're almost done with every faction too, most of the feedback for the routes look good even if some are "easy" like you said

What do I do as Wood Elves?Is it even worth expanding out past the heathlands around the trees? Does fighting battles outside of those regions help the big tree?
>>543831116Well there's one building in those that adds a flat +5 growth to all provinces.However, you basically have to paint the map to make it worth.TL;DR, no.
>>543831116>Is it even worth expanding out past the heathlands around the trees?no, kind of not reallyIt can be worth it if you have an enemy that is a threat to your hearthlands or if you need the money to raze their settlements or occupy and sell them to an ally. Despite the Orion meme having strong allies is the ideal way to play Wood Elves because you can focus on your trees.some places have landmarks toobut the tree and the hearthlands are the most important. Keep the forest health up until you teleport to a new tree and go from there. Keep an eye out for encounters too
>>543831116Raze capital settlements for absurd ammounts of money. A tier 5 skaven light could probably pay for a fully upgraded tree.
>>543817868I've been playing on Legendary/VH because my autism compels it, but I feel like it's detracting from the fun of the game. I'm playing in such an incredibly lame, cheesy, and manipulative way because how else do you counter the AI getting like 6 free extra global recruitment slots, 3k free income, 70% upkeep reduction, 50% extra refreshment, being able to effectively upgrade buildings for free, et cetera.It kind of...feels like nothing matters but chain winning fights? Taking provinces doesn't feel impactful when I know the AI can sustain at least 3 stacks off just their capital. Getting sacked can be catastrophic for you but is a very minor speed bump to the A Encircling or build siege engines is you practically throwing. Et cetera.
>>543832681I used to play on legendary but now I stick to hard with ai stats at 0. It is simply more fun to play like a casual, because that's what the game is designed for. Legendary forces you to be optimal and with the way the game is desinged being optimal gets repetitive really fast without being much more challenging. But on hard you can afford to use basically every option the game gives you and try different things and different playstyles for the sake of roleplay or just messing around.
Is there any kind of mod that gets the AI to try and force its units into a formation of some kind at the start of a battle?I'd really like to see something where the AI chooses an appropriate formation depending on if they're missile heavy or infantry heavyBasically anything other than one long ass line of units, it's so boring to fight
>>543831116Be bored out of your mind in my experience. Such a dull faction.
Fuck sake, got attacked at the end of the turn by Vlad and Co, 3 on 1, barely managed to beat it while only losing two expendable units. Think I can clean him up next turn. No no, after the battle Vlad grabs another nearby lord he has hanging about with no army, and fucking raise deads a whole new deathstack and re-attacks in the same turn. That is some straight up bullshit, it wasnt even crap chaff, it was primo grade A corpes. How do you deal with that shit? Hes super fucking swole too, hes got near half the empire under control and covered in corruption.
>>543838142You can't deal with it. Vlad is just stupid overpowered. Send feedback to CA asking them to nerf him so Empire players don't get FUCKED every fucking game.
Where are the cute rats?
holy crap why these niggas basically fighting to the death
>>543838554That's what KEESLEV does
>>543838554
>>543838554is this actually a good army comp for wood elves? what happens if they reach your 'frontline'?
>>543838554That's kislev, they do that, especially during the lategame. They are cancer incarnate, even worse than woodelves.
Ah yes, Pyrrhic
>>543840836still better to fight against than dwarfs tbdesu
>>543838393He already got nerfed after Empshitters cried about it.
>>543841127That depends which faction you're playing. If it's a melee one then I would take dorfs, because every time I fight lategame kislev they fight to the bitter end and end up taking a couple of units from me.
>>543841463>melee>prefer dorfsDo you use a mod to remove THUNDABARGE from the game?
>>543841567there's melee birds anon. THUNDABARGE is useless against those.

>>543653459You're talking to CAfags. Being cattle is their default mode
>>543812375Honestly if Thrones had gotten a bit of a map expansion a'la Pharaoh it might have been able to do a little bit better. Probably not too much since all it'd add is Magyars, West/East Francia and slavs but that'd have been neat to see. Even has Charles the Bald. Whose that? I'm not sure, but why is he so bald?Really just have taken Charles in charge and made it a standalone release.
>>543838142>How do you deal with that shit?Invest in ranged and magic (fire is ideal) and win with minimal casualties since ammo and magic replenish between battles for free. You want to focus fire their lords/heroes since without the leadership boosts the units will crumble. Bait him into fighting on your turf since Vcunts units have a chance to come back based on Vampire corruption.Have whatever assassin heros you have kill his heroes, the vampire heroes especially can be a bitch to kill.
>>543860505>warhammer "lore">CAfagsyou fucking retard

Im enjoying Pharaoh Dynasties so far but I want to try Troy Mythos out. I heard it uses the same 4X resources system, outside of smaller map size and the mythic units, is there anything different about Troys system compared to Pharaoh's?

>>543828819Raid Shadowlegends tm Looks like this!?
>>543849462chat can he fucking say that
Why can't CA just extend the map a little bit to include Nippon and Tor Elithis? They don't need to be fleshed out factions, just land that exists. Then you would actually have the entire map available.
>>543866876CA can't so much as look at the code without adding 10+ more bugs, you think they can just expand the map all willy-nilly?
>>543863776Not really. Same resources, similar religion system, same combat balance. Biggest differences that come to mind are the Mythic Beast expeditions, no outpost system or lethality and far more expansive questlines (every LL has 18-25-step questline that takes you through the campaign, culminating in Siege of Troy for Achaeans).
>>543863138Hard to complain when its a dead setting. Age of Smizzmar took all the heat insteadNot that it stopped them from trying anyway

Am I missing a trick by not using orc cavalry?Squigs, wolves/spiders, boar boys, pump wagons?I'm shit with cavalry to begin with but I want to know if the juice is worth the squeeze to learn to micromanage

>>543877993Kite out his ammo m8
>>543878139I don't have 2 hours to spend on this fight legend...maybe a change of comps in needed...but what do I bring
>>543877893Obviously they're the easiest thing to race for the enemy's ranged and go round to get in flanks and asses when your infantry engages, you're not missing out on a 'trick' by steering clear of them, you're avoiding an entire basic piece of strategy
>>543878314>you're not missing out on a 'trick'Figure of speech, I mean missing out on something hugely beneficialOrcs play fine as an infantry/missile/artilllery + sneakers faction desu

>>543878551Orcs do just fine without cavalry, but its always nice to have something guarding the flanks to avoid backcharges by enemy cavalry. As for Greenskins, their cavalry relies on charge bonus and eats shit if they get swamped down, so you gotta be at top of your game to make them perform well.

>>543884672What? 40k Total War? Don't be daft. The setting doesn't fit the franchise at all.
>>543649791100% right.It also didn't have t0 units recruitable from capital buildings so building a recruitment building early on wasn't a waste.Corruption made sense - you could never clear Sylvania of the v*mpiric taint and were forced to build sigmar temples lest you eat shit.We still had orc fightiness.Heroes had to be activated and didn't provide "passive" bonuses.
>>543863776>>543869629the combat is different because you get single entities, monsters, and god abilities, and you don't get lethality, armor breaking, or many of the srances. Troy combat is more like a middle ground between Pharaoh and Warhammer.

>>543893186Anon, they literally said many times it's in fucking December.

CA couldn't even release a new game after the Hyenas debacle before fucking it all up again
>>543893467Rich should really retire. Every video he slurs and mumbles a little more, and that creepy side-eyed look is only getting more noticeable.

>>543895651cheating our your cheatdot with mscheat doesnt hide your cheating

grim? gore'd
>>543895651Nta but during the loading the dot disappears and appears again at the end so you can make modded shots appear as vanilla. Not that it matters thoughbeit. Ignore the cheatstard, be proud instead.
I do want a nice historical setting game using some new mechanical developments from the warhammer and 3k games
>>543897464Like what, magic? Pharaoh actually has a bunch of neat stuff, its unfortunately held back by the fact they decided to put a bunch of cool features in a time period no one fucking cares about
>>543892145>Bretonnia Rework when?Soon.
>>543896428Dunno if this is any help to you but this is what I was using and the order I was using them in with it being OK:https://pastebin.com/UuqAACRv
>>543896428>>543898257Actually I wonder if 6.3 broke it? It broke some other mods I was using.
>>543897464Best I can offer is another warscape reskin based on wh2 fork
Wtf Rasputin
>>543897960I gave Pharaoh an honest try, it has such great campaign mechanicsBut I just don't enjoy the battles themselves, cavalry is such a staple outside of Lusted's piece of shit that not having it feels wrong, and it has Warhammers blobbery (though for bronze age warfare I suppose it makes sense)
Which one should I get today?
>>543898808Go for Daniel.
>>543899031I was actually planning on holding him out for last.
>>543898257I just completed a chorf campaign and it was fine, but I added some more mods before starting khorne. It almost certainly is a conflict. I added like 10-15 mods so I'll have to narrow it down later, but for the moment, it's khorne, so the real VC is total destruction.
>>543898656I cant fault you for wanting proper line battles, but CA willing to move away from standard line infantry tactics for more crowd-based unit tactics makes me fearful for what they might release next
>>543898808Slaanesh, but do it while edging the whole time so you beat Very Hard while Very HardIf you ever go soft, stop playing until you get hard again

>>543898656I think the problem is compounded by chariots being reduced to clunky cavalry instead of allowing them to keep moving a'la a plane. I was theorizing on ways to up their lethality/'oomf' and I am thinking as tests in the future:>Increase their reload rate by x2 or x3 or even x4Right now it's around the same as foot archery. Which makes no sense - foot archers have to as a unit wait for the command to loose, aim at an indirect angle. A charioteer is drive-by-shooting and like with an attack plane's high RoF needs to get as many shots off as possible before leaving.>Increase the massIn theory a chariot should be twice the mass of the Assyrian/Cimmerian cavalry since they're two horses. In practice even more given the cab behind it. If I had the money and cooperation of a police department I'd love to do a mythbusters-y experiment on the whole "War-horses won't charge a 'solid' line" theory. Mannequins instead of people, but my thinking is it would need to be a rock solid overlapping shields like roofing tile level of wall. A mere mosh pit and it's a different story. If I look in the stats right now: phar_chariot_[weight]_articulation is 100, 150, 300, but the horse and chariot itself is a mass of 1. Immediately wondering if that might be a problem or not, depends if CA can avoid bugs (Uh oh...). For reference? Infantry are a mass of 100-160. But cavalry are 70-80-125. I don't have WH3 installed atm until the churn of patch/Dlc ends but I see that helf spearelfii are 150 mass on twwstats. You know what fuck it I'll test it right now.

He had such a presence he even claimed to make Total War pivot around his words. The egotistical side of fame is a pathway to many delusions some consider to be mental illness. He became so full of himseslf... the only thing he was afraid of was being wrong, which eventually, of course, he was. Unfortunately, he went on about fake leaks after being cut out for the 10th time, then his fanbase realized he was full of shit. Ironic.
