Thanquol soon, friends!
>>548338609so basically you're tripping out over sunk cost fallacy and warhammer derangement syndromekk
kislev missile units shoot too slow
>slophammer player has no reading comprehension
>>548339553Putting aside the fact that you just outright admitted that the two biggest human factions in the setting benefit heavily from family trees you're also ignoring the dwarven factions that all also benefit from family trees. It's not a matter of dynastic infighting, it's a matter of staying true to lineage and inter-family events which as anyone who knows anything about Tolkien knows it's integral to the universe. I want to play a game where I actually see Aragorn married to Arwen and having his actual children or even just seeing time pass as Sauron's threat grows over a couple decades. You also just ignored my point about battle mechanics because you know that absolutely NO ONE wants to play sieges (a defining type of battle in LotR) that are based off of WH's dogshit.
>>548340208>Dwarven factionsNot really?I mean the Moria re-colonization would not benefit from it, and the other Dwarves weren't really in LotR (the novel)
>>548339839Why are Kislevites so much better at everything than the puny southerners?
reminder
>>548339618>Dechala the Denied OneI bet she has a thing for orgasm denial
>>548340513The mod is focused on a full scale version of Middle Earth dipshit, not just the events of a book. Still pointedly ignoring the battle points too, it's probably smart because there's no defense you could possible make for it.
>>548340627>legend of totally bald soon
Six more sleeps and im free
You see how Felicion has navel jewelry, stud piercings down her cleavage, and lacing through her flesh in her midriff section? It makes me think Malekith is actually a closeted homosexual.
You see how the Supreme Sorceress was designed with thigh-high boots, and perfectly symmetrical tattoos on her inner thighs and pelvis? Those are the details that make her superior to Dreadfu. Supreme, as it were.
>>548340576Their magic sucks, their artillery is lacking and they are ruled by women, I honestly don't know which one is worse.
>>548339618
>>548341704i want to lick the crease in between her shoulder blades
>>548339618Too bad she's not hot, her name makes her a prime candidate to be tied up and edged for hours
Can anypony tell me if the LOTR mod for Attila will be worth playing?
4 days until Total Warhammer 40k kills Warhammer fantasy.
>>548341339>>548341704I've always loved the aesthetic of evil sexy sorceresses that have the "bikini plate/fancy long loincloth" combo. Not only is it hot, obviously, but there's something about a woman with magical powers who feels comfortable dressing like a huge slut because she can easily kill most things she comes across that's pretty badass.
Repostan polls till Dec 4th, vote what you think will happenWhich 2 Total War games do you think will get revealed?https://strawpoll.com/7rnzVA9W6nOHow do you think the quality of the reveal show will be?https://strawpoll.com/w4nWW53VWnA
>>548342603They aren't doing medieval 3. They are going all in on Warhammer 40k from what you see on the type of job listings they are looking for.
>>548341704For me, it's the idea that this evil rape pirate lord abducts me but keeps me in relative safety because she likes my aura or whatever
>>548342803Feral Interactive will probably remaster Med2.
>>548340729The battle points of having slightly better sieges in return for utterly garbage monsters and no spell-casting or flying units? I thought I was being nice by not pointing that out, but if you really want to get into it I willAtilla is not able to recreate true LotR battles. Full stop. It fails at a basic level by not having good monsters, flight, or magic. Sieges could be re-balanced by the mod, mechanics like spreadable fires exist in the Warhammer files and could be re-introduced. Siege modding has been an extensive part of Warhammer modding since the very first game, and you can do a lot more with it than you can do with Attila mods. There's no way, for example, to have a functioning Eye of Sauron mid-battle in Atilla. There is a way to do that in Warhammer. You cannot reintroduce elements to Atilla which never existed in the first place, and whatever monsters are cobbled together by modders will pale in comparison to what Warhammer could have given you
>>548342368There does seem to have been done some very cool work that places it above the M2 mod imo.For example the animation of the explosion on the helms deep map.But keep in mind the upcoming release is a beta anway, its not actually done.
once i get TWW3, (from the FREE TWW3 day) what are some cool mods to get broskis :-D
>>548342826witch wives are superior to pirate wives
>>548342826>murderous dark elf warlordess takes you as her pet>"oh god oh fuck I'm going to get tortured for her sick pleasure">turns out that a life of constantly expecting betrayal and murder from her fellow Dark Elves has made her desperate for any amount of affection or comfort, and you basically become her emotional support human>all things considered its not that badI dig it.
>>548343176Isn't that the company of heroes cover?
Which Warhammer couple is the most NTR-able?
>>548343176why is this shit getting deleted? is this some kind of meme?
you would be sacrificed to khaine
>>548343297Tyrion & Alarielle, no question.
>>548343078Why? You want your freshly acquired game to crash more often than it should be?
>>548343394sure!
skulltaker's walk reminds me of this
>>548343384Tyrion is already the bull fucking the Phoenix King's wife, dummy.
>>548343363Is it the same 40k pic from last thread?
>>548343297alarielle is quite literally two-timing her husband with tyrion
>>548343527nah, the star wars ww2 one
>>548343420I can't help you with that then.
>>548342980>actually coping that you can mod in actually good sieges to WHlmfao, just buy Attila WHkiddie, it's on sale for cheap all the time. They're not making total conversion mods for your game, get over it, they're making total conversion mods for the game that people can actually make total conversion mods for. Third Age has jank but acceptable monster units and DD will be the same with Attila's good battle mechanics (that actually work and are fun unlike your fanfiction of modding them into Warhammer) and you don't understand LotR at all if you think it needs Warhammer level magic or would even correspond to how Warhammer does it.
>>548343527Assume anything deleted is just this same retarded joke for the next few days. An actual leak would not get deleted. We've had those before.
>>548343384Tyrion is already NTRing another guy. It's a political marriage so he doesn't really give a fuck, but still.
>>548343176Post it on reddit and see if it gets deleted too.
>>548343078Better camera modThat's it
i choose to believe jannies are deleting them because one of them owns a 4chan archive website and wants to push traffic to their site
>>548343862this and the modmanager. no need for anything else
>>548343297Valkia and Khorne. Khorne is the ultimate cuck, to the point where his followers practice the dogma of chastity or death. He sits on his throne and seethes in anger 24/7 and he watches his hot conehead wife getting lewded by a Slaaneshi daemon she personally chose to carry around with her and keep as a companion. Then there is all the legions of vassals and sentient chaos beasts following her around and staring at her ass all day.If we wanted to we could get into fanfic territory about Valkia being a massive cock hungry slut getting knotted by Karanak, but that would be unnecessary.
Who will you play first in 40k?
>>548344162Eldar and make an Avatar of Khaine doomstack
>>548343862>>548343964no all factions unlocked for meme factions?

>>548344162The blue boysbut I doubt the Thousand Sons would be a launch faction
>>548344162nurgle-plague marines and khorne babythat simple
>>548344230Most suck and the lords don't get anything unique, you really only use that mod if you want to play a race as vanilla as possible
>>548344162genestealer cults
>>548344162Imperial Guard but they're probably gonna be saved for DLC instead of being launch even if I think the ideal launch roster would be:>Space Marines>Imperial Guard>Orks>Either Tyranids or Necrons>Chaos Space MarinesIt depends though because WH3 had 9 races at launch but Pharaoh only had 4. So the above list is assuming they go the Pharaoh route instead of WH3.
>>548343078campaign weather overhauldynamic world + fancy forestryultimate lighting 2.0
>>548344162IG? I'm assuming they'd have the tougher start positions. I'm interested in affixing some bayonets. Other than that maybe AdMech.
>>548343683You can mod in good sieges, people have made plenty of fun siege maps even with the current system.You can't mod in good monsters to a game that doesn't support them.And you will never have flying units, good luck putting eagles, fell beasts, dragons etc. into your mod at all>No battle magic in LotRNow you're just trolling, how are you going to include Gandalf, the Witch King, Galadriel, Sauruman, etc. without battle magic?
>>548344760sweet stuff, ty
>>548344230i was joking. start as vanilla as possible and then try out mods that might interest you. i have currently 80 mods active and tried and then discarded probably more than a hundret
>>548344805Turns out that LotR modders only want spearmanii (fantasy) and nothing else.
>>548344162Techno Union
>>548344960gotcha, good idea

>>548345575i have murder immunity
>>548343297Malekith and Morathi
>>548344805Not a single siege map mod exists that compares to Attila maps (and all the maps they've shown off) and they are all missing the mechanics that make Attila sieges fun. No, you cannot just mod all those features back in and the fact that you had to pull that cope out of your ass is pathetic. Third Age has monsters and uber units like Sauron and you keep pointedly ignoring that. >Now you're just trolling, how are you going to include Gandalf, the Witch King, Galadriel, Sauruman, etc. without battle magic?By making them uber powerful single entity units that have some variety of attack in the game already? For fuck's sake Galadriel threw down the walls of Dol Guldur in your image, that is literally an effect already present in Attila that can be assigned to a character. LotR mods do not need a six spell wheel magic system and if you played LotR mods you'd know that. You seem to have no idea how TW modding works fundamentally, how hardcoded and missing tons of things WH3 is compared to even the already hardcoded Attila, but I should have known that from you being a Warhammer tard. I'm going to enjoy actually seeing Minas Tirirth in the background of battles and burning cities in war escalation because that is more fun than 3 shit preset maps and no siege interaction whatsoever outside of presegmented wall destruction. Once again, just buy Attila. It's cheap. Or make LotR yourself for Warhammer, seems rather easy based on how you make it sound.
>>548345796Wot bout stompinmunity?
>>548343297Every single high elf in the setting (SPECIALLY Alarielle) once Grom was done with them.
>>548346036dreadfu keeps me safe from that
what exactly would make "better sieges" when you can fly a zepplin over the wall and bomb the shit out of the defenders
>>548344227*decisive victoryproblem, knife-ears?
With CA remastering the engine to be able to make a good 40k game, we can now look forward to games for any war setting from now on! Now only licensing stands between Total War and TES, GoT, Star Wars, Halo, Avatar, James Cameron's Avatar, Pokemon, Eragon, Final Fantasy, Divinity, Brigador, Fallout, Endless Legend, Endless Space, Metal Gear, a prequel to Starfield letting you use mechs, even!
>>548346267>DivinityA TW: Divinity game could be fun. I'd be down for it.
>>548346145making them actually work would be a good start
>>548346190Isn't this just an AT-ST. Disney should sue.
>>548346267Total War : Hyenas is on the horizon
>>548346267>>548346340>DivinityImagine being a commander that's also a dragon in such a game
>>548346427AS IFI suppose he'd have some sort of jetpack!

Imagine convincing Bethesda to let you use of their IPs and then choosing Starfield
>>548346785is this guy double shitposting?
>>548344162Making assumptions about what will be available on release is just setting yourself up for disappointment, but some of my faves in order of how much I expect them to get in early:>Ulthwé (eldar are totally making it early on, and Ulthwé would be one of the easiest and most relevant craftworlds to represent)>Imperial Guard (totally getting the Bretonnia treatment)>White Scars (space marines are 1000% guaranteed first faction, but White Scars are probably FLC material)>Alpha Legion (ditto)>Farsight enclaves (Tau sound like a game two kind of faction, and Farsight like a DLC)>Genestealer Cults>VotannThat is, assuming CA don't pull off a Relic and aren't going for OC chapters/regiments/craftworlds/etc.
>>548344162general grievous
>>548345926Third Age monsters are just reskinned elephants, they suck assI've played LotR mods which is why I know they do completely fail to capture LotR battles and always haveYou won't be able to recreate Galadriel destroying Dul Guldur, what are you gonna do script the gates to break when she walks up? That's a glorified cutscene at absolute best, and it'll look like shit and you won't be able to do the same thing in any other sieges with herYou won't be able to recrete the battle of the Black Gates, no flying units means no eagles or fell beastsYou won't be able to recreate the Last March of the Ents since you won't be able to do Ents justice in the first place, they'll be reskinned elephants or something if they're in the game at all rather than the proper boulder-chucking single entities they should beYou won't be able to recreate fucking anything with any degree of success, none of the LotR mods do. You'll make spearmanii (Gondor) spearmanii (Orc) and then jerk off over itThe modders making this slop are wasting their time and you're wasting your time shilling it
>>548344162NONONONONO!!! 40K IS NOT HAPPENING! /TWG/ SAID SO!!! FANTASY SISTERS... NOT LIKE THIS. We can't be banished to /vst/ like histoids were...
>>548343116Welp, can't argue with an apropos squirepost.
>>548347447>like histoids wereI think /vst/ histfags are mostly jeetsYou falseflag terribly, hold nonsensical grudges, complain about everything, are unending tribalistic over shit nobody else cares about, and always somehow manage to make things about youLike how jeets can't help but include India in whatever they're falseflagging about, histfags can't help but include themselves
>>548347320>Third Age monsters are just reskinned elephants, they suck assHoly Warhammerbab seethe and cope, all the monster units in Third Age and especially DaC work fine, it's the crashes that make playing the game painful. Minas Tirith and any number of other battles will be equally hurt without any of the number of siege mechanics that Attila has and will be even more hurt by losing out on basic campaign mechanics Attila has from older TWs but yeah I guess I'll be mildly hurt that Eagles aren't in and the Witch King will be on foot or a mount that's permanently grounded. I'll still be enjoying it heavily but don't worry bro you have TOW and its end turn times to enjoy!
>>548343297Isabella was mind broken and turned against her husband by an obese faceless embodiment of dick cheese.
>>548346785>>Star Wars>Wouldn't workNo reason the Clone Wars wouldn't work when 40k will work
>>548348000They don't work and never have. Not gonna read the rest of this cope
How would you fix Malus Darkblade's campaign?
>>548348251I have a LotR mod (two actually) and you don't so I'm not the one coping.
>>548348315>I have nonfunctioning jank so I will keep being a tribalistic faggot and deny myself the objectively better fantasy battles I could have out of pure Warhammer Derangement SyndromeThis anon >>548339737 was 100% right about you and I never should have engaged with your autism at allThe fact that you think having worse gameplay is a win because it owns the fantasois or whatever is pathetic
DICK HANDS
would you rather be>zombie pirate>normalfag zombie>bretonian peasant>skavenslave
>>548349110peasant how is that even a question
>>548348749You could buy either game for cheap instead of writing delusion. Or better yet, you could not write paragraphs starting this entire thing about how it's only GW holding back total overhauls for Warhammer and not actually everybody who has played Warhammer finding it lacking in anything resembling fun and basic features for a war game. People who actually play this series and know how to mod it (aka not you) know what they're talking about. You don't, which believe it or not is why you're getting laughed at.
>>548349110peasant, I'd at least have the free will to kms myself
>>548349245really? i think being a zombie beats that
How would 40k total war even work? There's no single map, and the battle gameplay doesnt lend itself to modern warfare either
>>548349294You're really continuing with the >y-y-you don't own the game cope? How would I have played the mod if I don't own the game?And getting laughed at by who retard, the only person who's been disagreeing with me in posts ITT is youI have better things to do than argue with you forever, enjoy your janky garbage
>>548349487UM, JUST USE YOUR IMAGINATION?
>>548349487it wouldn'tca will make it anyway and it'll be barely functional like empire was
>>548349580>How would I have played the mod if I don't own the game?You haven't. That much is obvious. Enjoy your seethe over basic facts about why no one but you thinks Warhammer and its billion missing features is good for total overhauls.
>>548349487>How would 40k total war even work?Badly!hahaha
>>548349487Entire planets are single battlesWarp routes between systems, shit battles within systems that are pretty much just boarding enemy shipsExterminatus option for planets with heavy garrisons
>>548349487Normal campaign building Men of war assault squad styled battles
>>548349487Who the fuck knows? Almost certainly it won't have a map of a whole galaxy, at least not on release. It might be a single segmentum, sector, subsector, system or even a planet. Relic pulled it off in Dark Crusade and Soulstorm.
>>548350753
>>5483482182 factions+pirates
>>548352901>CA would never make a game where its 2 alliances fighting each otherBut they did, and its regarded as one of the most fun experiences
>>548353289they aren't 2 alliances, they're 2 factionsof course we're in the realm of fantasy, it will never happen, just like 40k will never happen and you all know it, the total war engine isn't built for squad based gameplay, let's not even talk about the fact that it can barely function with the things it's supposed to be built around, absolutely less than 0 chances that something like this would happen. You're all basically setting yourselves up for failureBUT at least, if we lived in an alternate world where CA made company of heroes style games, warhammer 40k has a ton of factions and subfactions, that was my point
>>548352901Could you niggers actually look up factions in Star Wars before typing this shit out constantly.
>>548350872It's probably gonna be some niche Segmentum
>>548353745>they aren't 2 alliances, they're 2 factionsBrain-damaged Somalian hands typed this post
>>548354019who are you even trying to fool seriously? starshit always has two main factions, rebels vs empire, or republic vs federation, you can squeeze another handful of minor factions, like the mandalorians, chiss, hutts, black sun, the pykes, zann consortium and and... nothing, right, and all these shitters don't even have enough ships and units to fill a roster, what's next? separating the CIS into 2 factions? come on, we all know that starshits doesn't have factions
>>548349360vampire agent glow so bright
>>548354434right, how about addressing my points? oh wait... there's no counterargument you could possibly use to address my points
not gonna lie bros i cant wait for free TWW3i wanna see how it handles on this PC :-D
>>548354583>CIS>a single unified entityThis post sent from a Separatist Senator thinking they actually have any authority when its just a loose alliance of megacorps
What setting do you think has the least interest that they could possibly announce? So not something stupid, but plausible and would create the most disappointment?
>>548354726>free healthcare>constantly partying with the boys>eating so much you may explode>free guns
>>548354376>>548350872>40kbabies are already fantasizing about a game that was not even announcedholy fuck
>>548354891Star Wars (Disney content only)
>>548354583In the GCW period alone you have (all canon even in Disney shit btw): Empire, Rebels, Hutts, Pirates, Hapans, CSA, Chiss, and Mandalorians which all make a perfectly functional game. That's assuming CA is barred from using old EU factions completely, assuming they can't do Clone Wars which would add more variety and assuming, like you faggots always do, that a 1v1v1 bout somehow can't be made entertaining when many war games do just that. You must be trolling at this point.
>>548354985> Empire, Rebels, Hutts, Pirates, Hapans, CSA, Chiss, and MandaloriansHOLY SHIT, i literally mentioned all of them, you literally couldn't even find more factions>which all make a perfectly functional game.lmao no, literally less than 10 factions
>>548354985> like you faggots always do, that a 1v1v1 bout somehow can't be made entertaining when many war games do just that.yeah those other wargames don't follow the total war forumula
>>548354985>1v1v1>a mexican standoff every single time in mp>the ai would just go for the player in spat least make it a 5 players ffa
>>548355328>>548355475You didn't list all of them and in fact instead mentioned literal who pirate faggots as separate factions for some reason but reminder you were the one who said "lmao Star Wars is only 1v1 well except if you look at all these guys." The Empire ALONE could sell DLCs for literal years with the amount of things they have you retarded faggot, so yes 10 factions is enough, especially if they're allowed to do CW and GCW. And believe it or not zoomer faggot but several TW games have had less than 10 factions and that's without the DLC potential the Republic, CIS, Empire and Rebels have. I beg you to open any Star Wars sourcebook, many of which are canon even under gayass Disney, instead of parroting shit you keep seeing in this thread.
>>548354891Something in mainland Africa or South America.
>>548354967Hi, it seems like you just got here, welcome to /twg/
>>548354970>Disney content onlyDisney owns star wars. It's all disney content
>>548354891Pharaoh 2
>>548356581he probably means not being allowed to pull from the old eu for cool stuff and/or doing sequel trilogy only
MansapedofTotalWar here
>>548355991i listed all of them except the csa, and i even mentioned more cartels, so overall i mentioned more factions, overall when you sum it all up it's less than 10 factions, no it's not good for a total war game>The Empire ALONE could sell DLCs for literal years with the amount of things they have you retarded faggotthe empire ALONE, why are you speaking as if the empire wasn't the ONLY factions to have a trillion ships, the other factions don't, and this is actually another problem, the empire has 325866987594068 trillion ships and units and vehicles and whatnot while the other so called factions can't even fill out a roster, lease list me 15 ships of the corporate sector
>>548354891Some sagashit instead of Med 3. I think 40k is a given at this point so I don't see them doing anything out of left field on the fantasy side.
>>548357014>I think 40k is a given at this pointcan you show me concrete proof that "40k is a given at this point"?
>>548357169Just basic logic, they have a somewhat good working relationship with GW and it would be a natural next step in terms of hype. Tons of the demon units can be reused too. No, I don't take e-celeb nonsense as proof.
>>548357313so no proof, gotcha
>>548357407I don't believe I said I had proof at any point did I? I get that you rabidly hate 40k, I do too sometimes because of the fans, but you don't have to be this desperate.
>>548357313going by basic logic i would assume they won't make a 40k game, since the total war format wouldn't work for a 40k game
>>548357582You're free to think whatever you want buddy, that's generally the point of soliciting opinions on image boards. Very difficult to understand for a middle schooler I'm sure.
>>548357537you said it's a "given at this point", how could it be a "given at this point" without any proof?
>>548357313So you're saying its an Age of Sigmar Total War
>>548357748exactly and that's why i gave you my opinion, you don't seem to like differing opinions
My sources are saying that the announcement is going to be delayed until mid-1st quarter 2026.
ITS GONNA BE LOTRCA HAVING GOOD RELATIONS WITH GW MEANS THEY BOTH WENT TO THE TOLKIEN ESTATE TO GET RIGHTS FOR A TOTAL WAR VERSION OF THE TABLETOP GAMEYOU CANT DISPROVE THIS WHICH MEANS ITS FACT
Holy malding Batman.
>>548358071shit i forgot about that, i remember like 15 ago looking at their lotr catalog on their website
LotR: Total War and literally nothing 40k would be absolutely amazing.
>>54835837540k will never happen anyway, it cannot work in the warscape engine, and even if they made a new engine for it, it still wouldn't fit the total war formula, it's too alien to total war, even if CA made a 40k game it would be another product line
>Warhammer chuddies still think Total War: 40k is going to happenare they retarded?
>>548358929it's gotta be mental illness at this point, although i guess the panic is getting more pronounced as we get closer to the announcement date
>>548358682Lest we forget the last time CA tried to do a sci fi warfare game
What if they announce Hyenas 2
>>548359241you forget alien isolation
>>548357169>>548357762You remind me of the people denying warhammer even though CA got the license in like 2012. Similar to that, the writing is on the wall with 40k.
So if Boris dies early when playing Malakai am I expected to take on the whole chaos invasion by myself? I just bought ToD and this is my first time playing him.Tried pushing west through Throgg but Azazel decided he wanted to play so I had to turn back around and deal with that. Then over the next 10 turns every chaos faction in the area declared war on me in sequence. I got as far as Karak Dum before Daniel and Archaon started pushing south.This campaign is cursed with mind-numbingly easy battles but an undefendable border in every direction.
>>548359241bwo?
>>548358929>>548359130think some of them are falseflags for .... some reason
>>548359408that wasnt a strategy dingus
>>548359464Yep, Total War Halo is next.Just basic logic, they have a somewhat good working relationship with 343 and it would be a natural next step in terms of salvaging the IP. Tons of the Covenant units can be reused too. No, I don't take e-celeb nonsense as proof.
>>548359408He said 'sci fi warfare game' not 'sci fi running and hiding from an immortal teleporting xenomorph game'
>>548359443apple and oranges comparison, the writing is not "on the wall", 40k can't work as a total war game, you're just a delusional 40k middle schooler
Holy continuing malding Batman.
>>548359589>>548359597true, i formally recant my statement, but i will leave it up because i am not above eating humble pie
>>548359715>you're just a delusional 40k middle schoolerI dont even want 40k. I think its totally the wrong direction for the series. Doesn't change the fact that's what its going to be. There is nothing more plausible than 40k
>>548358929It's 4:30 am in scotland, time to go to bed Volound
>>548360045Volound would love 40k would be like 10+years of content for him
Grunts (200/200) (plasma pistols) Elites (16/16) (blue) (halberds)
Actual proof for WHFB before announcement:>artbook leak>licensing agreement Actual proof for 40k before announcement:>the balding Australian said so>it just is, okay?!
>uhhhhhh valrak who has been right about 40k matters so often to the point it's obvious he has a source doesn't count because he just doesn't okay!!!
>>548359590no i meant that the tcaluk did make halo wars 2they were the ones who made the banished that 434 then pissed awayhalo wars 2 is also the last halo wars because it killed the franchiseit does not bode well for 40k
>>548359464>>548359589>>548360203>TW Halo>they spend the entire DLC cycle teasing a Grunt LL>it never comes out
>>548360225FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU. 40K WILL HAPPEN AND ALL YOU FANTASY COCKSUCKERS WILL SUCK DICK. GLORY TO VALRAK GLORY TO LEGEND
>>548359950> Doesn't change the fact that's what its going to bea FACT you say? can you show us these facts
>>548358071I'm pretty sure CA would have to go to WB or Embracer Group because they own the gaming rights for LOTR.
>>548360484was interesting though because it would have been an interesting teaser to see how tcaluk would have handled space battleswho knows if 40k will have it
>>548360508>CA teases art and comics of Bepis Logyapper all the time>promises to make him playable at some point>releases Total War: Halo 2>stops mentioning him>releases Total War: Halo 3>ends the series

>>548339618Haven’t played Warhammer 3 since ToD. Is it worth starting a campaign now or just waiting until ToT?

Repanse owes Henri sex
Why does Cathay such to play SO MUCH? They SEEM like fun, but they aren't.
>>548362405bootleg empire
>>548362405poor replishmentno healing magic for all the single entitiesbalanced around the ranged box spam which is done better by empire, elves and dwarfsscuffed flying units has potential but it's kind of mid
>>548362405Get the Miao Corruption Mod and never look back
>>548362405Warcraft aesthetics is it for me. Them and Kislev just don’t feel like Warhammer factions. In terms of gameplay they’re just a less fun Helves, it’s the same basic spear and arrows with some big units, only much worse magic.
>>548361363i love this guy's artstyle, also SEXO
>>548361363>>548363045I love the "sneaky" inclusion of a Skaven in every pic this guy does.
>>548362806It crashes too much for me
>>548363415It should be stable as long as your load order is correct, you're not using any outdated mods, and not on the Mac or Linux version
>>548362405Less flexibility than any of the other factions they're similar to. You build one kind of army as Cathay and that's it, the rest of ordertide can get themed armies but not them because deviating from infantry core boxed around artillery, all of which are on par or stronger than their equivalent, means using units that are shitty cathayan knockoff versions of everyone else's
>>548363547i think their army comp infantry/artillery is pretty decent, but it's such a missed opportunity for terracotta/jade monsters/monstrous infantry. the lions suck balls. and what the fuck is a longma, get that shit out of my sight you freaks.
>>548362405I think they're one of the more fun factions personally
>>548362405They're a box army that can only do box army, instead of having cool or gimmicky alternative builds.They're a box army that brings nothing new or unique to the box army formula and largely just copies from other box armies, but lacks all of the cool shit that helps make those armies fun.Someone really thought "stack your melee and ranged together for sick stat bonuses and never ever break formation was going to be fun and engaging gameplay, but then they didn't even bother to make them the premier shooting faction so they're just bad dwarves 90% of the time
which army should I stick the golden kislev hero dude in? Never played Kislev before.
>>548364980main army
>>548363547>>548364383Kirin will save Cathay by making cav-focused armies good enough to use
>>548365883the bald guy from dragonball?
>>548364980She’s a tank hero and essentially a bodyguard for squishy lords. She also passively boosts the defense of infantry. There isn’t really any one build that’s good for her to be a part of, but if you have Katarin, Ostankya, or an Ice Witch lord put her in those armies instead of the boyars, Boris, or Kostaltyn. The latter lords can hold their own in melee and don’t need a body guard so she’d be wasted. The former lord options are squishy enough that they need the help.
>>548365972krillin alone would wipe the floor with every single named chaos character
>>548366049you can just nerf him to be setting friendly, or just pick the first tournament boys
>>548365883We're just caught in the rain of no content before the rainbow of a fun Cathay lights up the gameThe shiny apple of WH3 sometimes comes with wormsDon't stop having fun now just because you're scared CA will hurt itself and the playerbase with more content droughtsIts a lesson much of the thread just cant learn
>>548366292>you can just nerf him to be setting friendlywhy the fuck would i do thati want to see yamcha make archaon sweat

>>548366049As much as people dickwave powerscaling in Warhammer, even 40k, theres no shortage of characters in anime, manga, cartoons, and comics that would wipe the floor with the settings

>>548366992Yes despite what it may seem 40kek is actually a weak scifi series.
>>548367120Nah hit that MF Skrag or Elspeth button and let's get it. Maybe Volkmar too.
>>548367239really? i figured 40k would wipe the floor with star wars at least, but i know nothing of either setting.

>>54836734840k winning is entirely dependent on Chaos corrupting the SW galaxy or Tyrannids just eating itThe Clone Wars wasnt even a state of Total War for the SW galaxy, if it comes down to it there's far more ability for them to increase military production while the IoM operates on max every day already
>>548368172>Belakor jobbed to rocks>Gorn tanks themhmmmm
if the chaos gods tried to corrupt the destiny universe, guardians would kill them and make guns out of them

Bruh, Azhag declared on me turn 10 as the Ice Court. As I'm dealing with him, FESTUS of all niggas declares on me turn 12. He's not even at war with any of the empire dudes. What the fuck bro.
Im going to Jizz SO hard when the fantasy game is Game Of Thrones its going to be SO fucking funny
>>548371190if you're not at war with anyone the chances of getting declared on skyrocketyou should always be at war with two or three people to avoid random shit like that, ideally weak factions with no way to actually get to youthough azhag is hard to avoid as tzarina in my experiencei try to wipe him out asap
>>548364735They were made for china audience but also for people wanting a braindead helf experience of turtle and ranged spam..t helf was my favorite faction in WH2
Can't decide which ogre faction to play. I want to confederate the other lords and Gresus seems to have the best mechanic and the best landmarks near him. Golgfag is just about having 1 army that teleports around, not incentivized to hold any territory. Never played Skrag, seems to have pretty good faction bonuses though.
>>548343297>>548343384>>548343569>>548346042>>548343506
>>548346267>BrigadorThere’s already mods to make it into an RTS, don’t even really need to make it a TW game. Just take Brigador’s engine and make StarCraft with it.
Volkmar is fucking cracked man. Flaggelants absolutely rape the undead.
>>548372884Not only is it NTR/cuckoldry (I’m pretty sure Finubar knows about it and doesn’t care), but Tyrion and Alarielle are cousins, so it’s also incest.
>>548343297every Skaven think about it Skaven women are literally just breeding pits for THOUSANDS of skaven thats unimaginable cucking
>>54836734840k's pretty weak in the grand scheme of British Sci-fi desu

Is Kislev any fun? I like the combined arms shit, but never played them much and when I did it was at release. None of their units really stand out to me, though. Any I should keep my eye out for? And while we're at it, what are some general army compositions I want to aim for? Thanks.
>>548336785>cavalry and elephants and archers all feel like they don't do anything in AttilaWhat the fuck are you talking about? I'm seriously doubting you ever played the game since anyone who has, knows that cav in Attila is the strongest it's ever been in the TW series. Archers do great damage and crossbows especially are as they melt units.
>>548376703get streltsi, have fun
Only 4 sleeps til 40K TW is announced
>>548377064>can't dispute the elephantsoh no no no attilasisters we got found out
>>548377148I don't think I've used them in Attila since I've never played the Sassanids. If they're anything like R2 they're fine. Just need to micro them.
>>548377219>micro cav>they all die>don't micro elephants>they all dienot gonna play blud's game againuncslop
>>548377148NTA but they're just really rare in Attila compared to Rome 2. They're insanely strong in both games regardless.
>Cav does nothing in AttilaMeanwhile there are several compilations on youtube covering how Scout equites, (the shittiest roman light cav) micro'd well, defeat full stacks of barbarians in siege defenses. There are memes about how the WRE is held together by a single unit of scout equiteshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4fVh0yCFPPghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_x0T8PsY2fwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAJSU6QT5ss
>please watch my histslop No.
>>548377141You said 4 yesterday
>>548376703campaigns start very timidly with kossar spam but then daps you up with armoured kossars, streltsi, sleds, and winged lancers which are all very strongyoure just putting fudge on the sundae when you mix in ice guard and tzar guard and a little grom and war bearsavoid the monsters, generally, unless youre ostankyaget one or two patriarchs in every army
>>548377064>>548377148Elephants suck in attila, though. The fact that they're only good against infantry is just bad because you might as well use shock cav for that. Shock cav are cheaper, can counter other cavalry, and will rape infantry regardless.
>Patch infinity and a full decade in>Ambush stance still mostly useless outside of wood elves and oxyotll due to overtuned campaign spotting
>>548377705>Ambush stance still mostly useless
>hey you know these units that suck ass lets make a mod about turning them into trolls and ents and shit and center everything around themdid blud really...?
>>548376301CA should skip 40k and move onto a real mans Scifi franchise like Doctor Who.
>>548377705>Cav does nothing in Attila>Ambush stance still mostly useless in WarhammerWTF IS WRONG WITH THE POSTERS IN THIS GENERAL?! Do you not play the games?
>>548376703it's fun, and the revamped mechanics are cool and give powerful buffs. atamans can sally out when leveled enough too which is nice to swat away pesky interlopers. good comp at the start is kossars/halberds, and then get armoured kossars and streltsi which will carry you to the late game into tzar guard who become chosen with charge defense. here's a fun army i made in the late game with an emphasis on slowing people down long enough to shoot them to death
>>548377064You know I completely missed that when arguing with him, thanks for further proving he's a retard and further shitposting in his seething right now.
>>548377649How are the heavy sleds as Katarin? Do I want to use them as like Chariots/cav and just hammer into shit? I see they have some missles too.
>>548378042NTA but if you play Attila cavalry like Warhammer cavalry they actually do kinda suck.
>>548378042he's not wrong thoughbeit, it would be nice if you could see the modifier for the ambush detection on the campaign map.
>>548377780>>548377705Useless past turn 20 where there's armies, agents, and settlements every 3 cubic centimeters that spot you**Fixed
bluds mad about an 8 hour old post
Lokhir Felhart campaign is kinda cool
>>548378315Did he finally get that vcoast ranking system yet?
>zoomerposting in his seethelol
>>548378173Id rather have ambush stance than forced march, its that good
blud thinks i'm him
>>548378126both light and heavy sleds are really good hammers but be cautious to not send them into something waiting for themi think people generally think light sleds are more economic and do the same jobtheyre also great at baiting units away from the initial advance so that your line doesnt have to deal with everything at onceand also of course crashing into unprotected missile unitsno one sleds quite like the tzarina though
>>548378157>>548378173I must be getting super lucky since I successfully ambush all the time. Huh
>retard thinks i ever implied it was himdon't worry, i know which one you actually are
Reminder to use the mod that nerfs ambush stance so it only works in forests and such
>>548378504its not even about getting the ambush, its going invisible
I forgot how much of a kick in the balls Franz is to play in the early game. GolgFAG eating up all of Nordland and Ostland by Turn 10 is just adding to the pain.
Turin told me not to use forests ever.
>>548378618kek

Will TW40K get coomer mods like WH3 did?
>>548378863Grace will return to stop that from happening
>>548378504>But I did eat breakfast
>>548378863instead of beastmen, it will be genestealers.
>>548379052yeah yeah very funny, or maybe you guys are exaggerating/don't know how to ambush properly. See the trick is to get the ambush success chance number really high! Clever huh?
Playing volkmar just spamming his free company with smoke mods and bullet trails turned off looks like some laurence of arabia shit.
funny indeed, because ambush success chance and ambush detect chance are 2 different things...
>>548379095>instead of beastmen, it will be genestealers.Somehow even worse
>>548379368yeah have you tried getting your ambush success chance as high as possible whilst assassinating enemy heroes that may detect your army?
>>548379480I mean beastmen exist, but they are there purely as cannon fodder for chaos with no redeeming value.
>people arguing about the intricacies of warhammer 3>4 days until the only TW game anyone will play for the next 5 years is released
>>548379639>released
>>548379675Yes, they will shadow drop 40k and M3, it would explain why the WH3 content has been so few and far between afterall.
>>548379675i caught that typo before posting then promptly forgot to change it anyway
>>548379768
>>548379589See>>548378173, that's why I said that it would be nice if the player could see the zone or the modifier of the ambush detection chance, and the fact that it's not transparent is such a bad game design.
>>548378863beastmen will be given large penises that dangle and flop around during combat
If we be real about it, I'm looking forward to the /twg/ viewing party for the new games being announced. Whatever they turn out to be, the banter and memes should some actual good fun.
>>548379639>intricacies of warhammer 3it has none. The game is shallow which is why us true understanders are migrating to paradox
>>548379829I still have fond memories of the Rome 2 release.
>>548379809It's true! And Hyenas was just a ruse, they were actually spending all that time and money working on the new TW games! You'll see! You'll all seeeeeee!!!!!
>>548379829the roping and coping of histoids will be legendary
>>548379829nakai is so cool
>>548380146Nakai digs in his ass and licks his fingers
>>548380207...so fucking cool
>>548379168Congrats on pulling off an ambush in the first 5 turns when it's viable/high probability. >inb4 Ambushes become useless turn 30+ when you've already beaten the game and won. It just would add a lot of fun if your armies didn't constantly get spotted 90% of the time, but we can't have fun things, so ambush will remain a shit stance until they add some visual representation like >>548379817 said so you know what your actual detection chance is.
Total War: Thirty Years War.Watch.
>>548380037holy cope, we're getting med3 faggot, only fantasyfags are coping about 40k

>>548380438still probably an honest living sadly, likely down from 15k per month to something like 6k I bet
>>54838039240K is the Historical title though, it's just history that hasn't happened yet.

>>548380502Why do you want him to go broke?
>>548380438not bad considering the lack of overlap for those gamesi personally dont like eu games and i only occasionally play stellaris
>>548380836I don't, but I don't think such ungrateful seething and malding deserves so much money, given he being lucky enough to be able to play video games for a living. But oh well, worse people have made more money for doing shittier things, so it's fine.
>>548381057fair enough. If it makes you feel any better he doesn't seem to have been happy with his career choice the last few years
>Army of nearly entirely sharts reinforces next to my pure melee army at the exact same momentThat's unfortunate
>>548381230God I love Khorne. Wish we got another DLC lord form him. I've played the current ones to death
Good Bretonnia mods?

>>548381371the warhammer fantasy fans are because they know 40k will overshadow wh3 and consign it to the dustbin yes. the rest of us don't care. we historyfags certainly don't because med3 is on the horizon. even if it was an oddball like empire 2 we'd still be happy.
>>548381301Khorne doesn't seem very interesting, feel like I got my fill playing him once
>>548381371>Warhammer fans are coping because they're getting better WarhammerFTFY>>548381557>we historyfags certainly don't because 40K is on the horizonFTFY
>>548381593His gameplay style just fits me. I love infantry, I love cav, I love melee. Also like how they work on the campaign map.
>>548381557>Warhammer fans are coping because two subfranchises that coexist all over the place will coexist in /twg/
>>548381643i probably will play 40k at some point too yeah, just waiting until at least a bit of dlc is out because you just know it's gonna be barebones on launch
>>548381451better unit cards than nuCA
>>548381748I kind of get what you mean. I didn't get WH1 at launch for the same reason (WH1 feels like an alpha build compared to what we have now). Space Marines will probably only launch with Ultramarmanii.
>>548381690correct, yes. i hate to break it to you but historyfags don't give a shit about 40k coming when med 3 is also right there. if it's not fantasyfags like you're coping it must be the mythical unicorns who wanted tw dune instead of 40k
>>548381759i look like this
>>548381301Khorne is in my top 3 favourites for sure. Idk why Valkia is so unpopular, when I find her start pos, gameplay, and recruitment system to be great. Her colours and uniforms are also DRIP >>548381385They got the unhinged lunatic voice acting of Khorne down proper. Arbaal's VA also did a great job with high intensity screaming into the microphone
>>548381905why would there be a med 3?
>>548381905>I'm a fantasyfag because I think some guy who won't shut up about Warhammer saying other people are coping about Warhammer is stupid
>>548381990because they've confirmed they're making another history game and it's likely med 3 based on the animation work posted on some guy's instagram? like i said empire 2 would be cool too. are you legendfag, you sure sound as retarded as he is
>>548381979Something about WOC hasn't clicked for me in WH3, I think I need to play them more to start to like them. Currently I wish Valkia was on the Khorne roster. I did play her in the Champions of Chaos dlc and it was fun. I like her as a lord.

>>548382136whats a legendfag?
>>548382195No, but that's the same with any job (in that you shouldn't have to be unquestioningly loyal but you basically have no choice in the matter). His is better than most though because he can just... play video games instead of having to do some shitty manual labour or something.
Is it possible to have a challenge whilst playing Golgfag?
>>548382251>>548382259>>548382349Yes, this sort of behaviour makes it seem like you aren't seething about 40K at all
>>548382498Yes but only if you impose restrictions on yourself, like say having only 3 ogre units max in each army
>>548382431you, get those superchats going, his views aren't looking so hot now that he pivoted to eu5
>>548382598I'm keen for 40K, I just thought the two posts were funny.
>>548382141I prefer WoC race mechanics to daemons tbqh. Starting with humble marauders and leveling them up to chaos warriors, then eventually chosen is crazy of fun. It feels like you're investing in the future and growing together with your army. The recruitment pool being based on climate + corruption is also very unique. You also get access to most daemons through gifts of chaos, and getting them through sacrificing souls also feels loreful and flavorful. I'm beat up over not getting khornotaurs with valkia though
Slophammer fatique is real.
>B-but I'm not mad about 40K btw it's the Fantasyfags who are mad
I just want a Skaven rework before WH3 dies.
Total War:
>>548383271They don't need one.
>>548382498Only use his contract mechanic for nearby factions and don't force peace after finishing a contract. This way everyone will hate your guts and you can't just pick up every juicy contract you see without repercussions.
>>548382160>Same with chorf overseersIIIIZ REIK!HASHUT ANUNKU!ANUNKU LETH!
I miss him just shilling legend videos, can we go back to that?
>>548382448>His is better than most though because he can just... play video gamesTrue enough. CA have kinda just hated him forever though, offering him temporary partnerships during DLC cycles, then booting him out the moment he would point out the game being in a shit state or whatever.R8h2tpPeople like Great Book of Grudges are on the other end of the spectrum - just soulless glazing of CA and worshipping the ground they walk on. If only it weren't a spectrum between autism and being a total slut
Farms or Markets for Kislev economy? So many building options, kind of a brainlet. From my stunted observations, it seems markets are better, atleast in the early game until I can stack enough resources to buff farms substantially.
>>548383641farms imo, once you start expanding quickly and build lots of resource buildings, that is when it is time to switch to markets
>>548383429click Dawii zharr settlement**>*diabolical giggling*>Izz dawis daaa
>>548383641Why not both?Markets really light up once you start grabbing settlements with special resources but I until then they're nothing special.
>>548383429>ANUNKU LETH!Yeah he really cranks the dial to 12 on that one
>>548383641Markets are better for money, Farms also provide growth. You can generally have both by T3 so it's better to get there faster, but a resource building is always preferable to either.
>>548349487The same way every single total war works. It's going to be an empire reskin like every game of the past 15 years.>There's no single mapIt's just going to be a map of the galaxy. Cities will be turned into planets and everything else ist going to be space.>the battle gameplay doesnt lend itself to modern warfare eitherDoesn't matter. It's just going to be reskinned Wh3 gameplay with more ranged units.

>love me Empire total war>find out they released it on mobile>has features from Napoleon ported to it>also bug fixes and other improvements>44 playable factions>late campaign start>PC version of Empire is the same fucked up shit it's been since 2009I'll be honest. I'm furious right now.Why can't we have this version of Empire on PC?
>>548383271what would you rework about them? i think i've played maybe 2 skaven campaigns total, both in wh2, so i have no idea about them and what they need
This is just another elgi scheme
>>548384594go ask CA
>>548384540there's a benis under that loin clothand that's a good thing
>>548384606>Skaven slaves should be attached to armies akin to greenskin waagh armies>Under citites should be spread more easily so you can actually take advantage of them when attacking>add Thanquol and more unitsThese are my 3 priorities for making the faction complete. of course more things can and should be done such as perhaps some form of FOTS train mechaninc to allow for fast underground travel the way they actually travel in lore.
>>548384594From what I understand a not lazy piece of shit company released the mobile version which is why those improvements didn't carry over to the pc version.
>>548384594CA are genuinely one of the most incompetent vidya devs right now.
>>548382431There’s a schizo ITT that calls everyone out as one person, that person being the hypothetical singular person ITT to watch legendoftotalwar (the most popular TW YouTuber with over 500k subs)He gets triggered over people discussing the next most plausible TW game and thinks it’s all one person samefagging.He’s probably going to kill himself if the next game is 40K.

might as well pivot again
>>548384823yeah that'd be aight
5 days until the reveal showI should get a "memes in case 40k is announced" folder and a "memes in case 40k isn't announced" folder, this way no matter what happens I get to make fun of someone
>>548385456welcome newfag, hope you enjoy your stay
>>548385456>Medieval 3lollmao evenNobody except 80 years old geriatric boomers cares about histoid games. Every single histoid title since Rome 2 was a failure. CA would be genuinely retarded to make another history game at this point. Then again they did develop Hyenas.
>>548342072Good taste
>>548386083good thing they already announced they are making another one. you lost faggot and will continue to lose
>>548386435I guess Wh3 DLC will keep the company afloat after they release another history snorefest with peak player count on launch of 800 people.
>>548386546yep, you faggots oink oinking pays for ca's passion projects that i get to enjoy, thanks for that
>>548386546Arthurian DLC will ensure Medieval 3's success.
I've been having tons of fun with the Hun cheat.>Mongol hordes where you can build entirely skirmish cav based stacks with couple elite mounted Khan Guards to challenge troublesome cav/monsters>To develop your Horde Camps you need to bring loot to it physically unlike magically teleporting Ogre Food, so you are somewhat more attached to your camps>By killing enough order faction X you start being able to loot their siege engines (like Grand Cannons) to shore up your siege abilities
>>548386657Their only passion project was that Alien game which they still proudly display in their lobby next to all the total war games. TW has always been that one property they tolerate because it makes money. Whenever there was an opportunity they tried ditching TW in favour of something else.>>548386821Didn't work for Troy. Won't work for M3. People will play it for a month after launch then go back to Warhammer.
>>548386083hello newfag, enjoy your stay
>>548387089Med3 will work if it's an actual good game that runs well,has good field/siege battles, and is feature complete at launch. lollmao even
Is Wind Blast ever worth using? The damage is pretty abysmal.
>>548387089history games have always been their passion, that should be obvious from the tob debacle. warhammer is the franchise they tolerate (it might have had genuine passion through the early to mid wh2 days) because it makes money because faggots like you buy the dlc no matter how dogshit it is. why else would they feel confident putting a skeleton crew on the game, taking months to make a dlc, delaying it, and then revealing that it's bland as shit? you people will buy it anyways. like i said, thanks for that, i get fun history games from your dumb choices
>>548387446Only on unarmored chaff when you have literally no better spells to cast.
>>548387446It has pretty much similar value to WoM as buff spells, so no. A single Comet/Chain Lightning on a good blob will generate 10x the value.
>>548387448>history games have always been their passionWhatever passion they had died around the time of FotS. Anything they made after Rome 2 was devoid of it. The exception being the DLC for Rome 2 and Troy since the Bulgarians were still optimistic. Now they look as depressed as everyone else whenever they show up on camera.>i get fun history games from your dumb choices>Rome 2>Attila>ToB>3 Kangdoms>Pharaoh>funAnon please :/
>>548387801every single one of those games is fun outside of tob. for fuck's sake three kingdoms and pharaoh are the only recent total wars that have attempted any innovation at all. cope hard faggot
>>548387913Innovation doesn't equal fun you dope. Pharaoh had great campaign gameplay but the the battles sucked dick. Exclusively because CA forces down the warhammer version of the engine on the team which is garbage when it comes to depicting formation warfare.
>>548387913>every single one of those games is funSo why is no one ever discussing them?
>>548388048the battles in pharaoh were fun as hell with lethality and the stances were great fun and something total war should have done ages ago. sieges weren't up to the level of games like attila but are miles better than warhammer. are you the tard that was arguing further up that lotr would suck in attila because apparently attila doesn't have good gameplay? that would make sense, your arguments are on the same level of retarded as that anon's "cavalry is bad in attila" lunacy.
>>548388281>arguing further up that lotr would suck in attila because apparently attila doesn't have good gameplayNope, that just sounds retarded given there's a huge LotR mod for Attila already.
>>548388393then good on you anon, we're just having an old fashioned slapfight over things that don't matter then rather than me speaking to an anon who might need to be committed.
With the exception of Shogun 2, nobody cares about games where brown and/or yellow people fight other brown and/or yellow people. Setting is everything when it comes to hsitorical Total War games but CA just doesn't understand that. People have been asking for Medieval 3/Empire 2/Pike and Shot/Victoria for years at this point, but CA actively resents this franchise nowadays. In CA's ideal dreamworld, they'd be the Hyenas devs right now and Total War would be a distant memory from their problematic, chud past.
>>548388631>In CA's ideal dreamworld, they'd be the Hyenas devs right now and Total War would be a distant memory from their problematicThis. We were robbed of a brighter future. #jointhepack
>>548388631Total War Saga: Congo would slap so hard
Pharaoh has been mentioned more than once this thread.I shall now post pictures from Armies of the Ancient Near East. Specifically the Egyptian army after Pharoah total war but before Rome.Think of them as fleshy tomb kings.
First there was a wall of text.
Then there was pharaoh himself.
What would (You) answer here?
>>548387089>Whenever there was an opportunity they tried ditching TW in favour of something else.How the fuck have people already forgotten Hyenas? Are people just that stupid, or has CA hired more shills before the anniversary event?
Then there were chariots.
>>548387003Cataphract Hero + Light Lancer is peak fun early game>Enemy cav harrassing your Horse Archers>Charge your Hero in first so they cant counter-charge>Use the Hero's massive damage buff on Lancers as they charge in to delete unit>Keep skirmishing with your Horse Archers until you can delete another unitAs long as you never stop moving you can pick apart armies twice your size, which is rather rare for early game armies
Then they had pretty dope chariots.
Their infantry was very different from typical ancient Egypt.
>>548389576CA very much wants people to forget about the whole Hyenas thing, yes.
And now it's done.Too bad we will never get an iron age tw game now that Pharaoh flopped.
Does evil always thriumph in the old world? I don't think I've ever seen Vlad not tear the empire apart, Dwarfs not lose their holds, Brettonia survive Kemmler and the Red Duke, Kislev not fold to the Norsemen.

Total war: 30 Years War is the only real setting that makes sense. Its a closed setting, fairly small geographically speaking, would allow more story driven changes and event based entries into war etc etc, as well as a testing ground for expanding the way infantry blocks function to pave the way for future development. I'm thinking mixed regiments mainly. Also there's a bunch of advancements in military tech during this period, that it'd be exciting to watch. The gun and artillery still isn't in its prime. There's a lot of cav and infantry charges playing key roles
He begged to be let back into the creator program but his desires were spurned. Maybe next year.
If norsca can get chaos warriors now doesn't that make all those norscan infantry units redundant?
If you could make tv series about warhammer fantasy what would it be?
>>548407854Source on this? I'm genuinely curious or if you're making it up.
>>548408221squire's adventure
>>548408221goblin slayer, but rats/beastmen
>If norsca can get chaos warriors now doesn't that make all those norscan infantry units redundant?No, because Norscachad marauders are still the most cost-efficient ones and marauder champs are better than chaos warriors, but cheaper than Chosen. Berserkers are better unarmored chaff clearers than Forsaken. The Norsca roster is good and Norscachads are going to anally ravage the game once the new MP season starts.
>>548408215Isn't that the end goal for norscan warriors anyway? To become Chaos Warriors? Also CW get buffs from altar buildings, not skills so it will take a while before they'll become better than Marauder Champions buffed with skills and techs.
>>548408221Anime about Archaon and how he became the Everchosen. No, he would not be a cute gril.
>>548408564Yes but it would mean the end goal of playing norsca is ending the campaign and playing warriors of chaos.

The absolute state of these shill headcanons, embarassing kek, whats worse is ppl in this thread are acting exactly like this
>>548410430there's ultra brand loyalists everywhere, redicule them just like CA and don't take them too seriously, else you get brain damage yourself
The dreaded dreadmaw. Also known as the trouser snake.
>>548381371>Warhammer fans are coping because they're getting more WarhammerHalf of you are literally coomers who don't even play the games. At least 50% of that will be gone with 40k, even if its replaced with 15 year olds
Pharaoh flopped because it's racistCA will have to do better and be more woke and inclusive if they want to succeed
>>548408963Have they ever rejoiced that it is said that the Fimirs lay eggs?
>>548400540interesting. Every singlcel have shat on the Marauder Bearmen but Turin and this other guy rated them really high and gave good arguments.
>>548411147>Half of you dont even play the gamesGet on with the times unc, thats normal for any game. If your game doesnt have at least 50% of playerbase watching most popular streamers without playing the game itself its outdated and shit. Just look at /v/: about half the threads are from these gamers, either discussing what streamer X said or did. You're not with "it" anymore, gramps.
>>548411815>this other guyIs literally the world champ. He knows his shit.
>>548393902As long as MP exist, there cannot be asymmetric balance. If, say, skaven have below-pricepoint chaff (to be balanced with very limited and over-pricepoint expensive Weapon teams), their chaff is op and needs to be nerfed or they'll just spam it 24/7 and autowin. Similarly their Weapon Teams are underperforming and need to be buffed. Que balance changes until all flavor is watered down to balanced performance-to-gold-cost-ratio.
>>548411815That's because Legend's brainrot reigns supreme. Lots of singlecels think every faction has maybe 3 viable units max, everything else is dogshit not worth recruiting.
>>548411815SP and MP have different prioritiesWho would have thought?
>world champ of a madeup game modeLMAO, MPniggers are true desperation, this scares the MPnig
Remeber anons, balance is enemy of fun.
>>548412336>SP and MP have different prioritiesYes, singlcels want to stack mammoths so they don't care about some crusty infantry unit with less attack value than a basic marauder while MPchads want to actually play the freaking game.
>instant singlcel meltyI accept your tearful concession.
>>548412484>Bad-faith arguing and strawmanningGrim & grave
>Bad-faith arguingOK, I'm sorry. Singlcels don't want to stack mammoths, they want to stack star dragons.
>play the freaking game>using trees to hide will get you DQ'd>wont recruit Lords because they cost too much>will go for magic characters over melee ones because magicspam rules in MP>armies literally hinge on the meta units, the rest is fodder>reason they like T0 units is because it allows them to spend more money on said meta unitsThe funny part is the MPnigger falls back on doomstacking when almost no one does that meanwhile Turdin himself has said he likes to stack the meta units in his army
Sometimes I wonder if all mpniggers are as retarded as this one.
>spending a sunday creating a boogieman and then samefag shitposting about himyou know if you're bored you could play a video game or something
>>548413038>house rules are badI can tell you never played tabletop

>>548413272Not the argument, retard, nice reading comprehension, almost as bad as Rahjesh and his MPfaggotry
Can't wait for the update
Singlcel shitters have no arguments since they don't play the game.

>Hey Folks, >We’re changing up the release plans of Tides of Torment somewhat last minute, so please accept my apologies in advance for adding some confusion to the release of this update – we know that you’re all looking forward to it and that we’ve been talking to you quite a lot about it over the past few weeks. >Over the last several days, we’ve been trying to solve a compatibility issue that was causing players on NVIDIA hardware to crash unexpectedly to desktop. Whilst an infrequent issue, and one that isn’t common to all hardware across the NVIDIA family, it’s significant enough for us to warrant some caution. We attempted to resolve this issue, but we believe the issue still persists. Until we’re happy it’s resolved, we’ll postpone the full release and update you more on the topic next week.

>>548416590okay NOW you can shitpost about it
>>548416350>LisaCanon>YukariWas actually meant to be the canon love interest >RiseThe only canon girl to say she loves Narukami even if she isnt romanced by him or at SL10>AnnKind of breaks the trend of Lovers always being canon but theres still enough there with the opening cutscene where Rens mesmerized by Ann in the rain and willing to look at her chest when shes sweating in the desert + hes not as much of a sperg as the other guys (Morgana included) so he has a higher chance by default
>>548416362Hell yeah!
>>548346267>to be able to make a good 40k gameI'm still not convinced it is happening
total war: twewi > total war: persona
>>548417131>TWEWYGame is too cool to be part of a slop franchise like Total War, the sequel was dogshit thoughbeit, especially the music
>Historical game is Total War Bharat Chronicles>Fantasy game is Warcraft (new Blizzard version) would be funny
>>548417240There was no way for TWEWY 2 to be good in any way, TWEWY is one of the few games in existence that was actually made for the DS and is incapable of being played fully on any other device
>>548416985>hes not as much of a sperg as the other guys so he has a higher chance by defaultyou are discounting the fact that ann is also a sperg. joker's non-sperg nature may prove his downfall in the annbowl. or at least it would if every female character wasn't by default mc-sexual.
>>548417429Agreed, I still think you can enjoy TWEWY without playing it on the DS but its just not the same
>>548416985>Yukari Was actually meant to be the canon love interestIf this is true they clearly changed their mind then, seeing as they just paired her up with Mitsuru in Arena.
How do I play lizards?
Every LL in the upcoming DLC easily defeats Grimgor 1v1

>>548391224>Total War The ShatteringElden Ring is happening. You know it and I know it.
>>548413915Then stop minmaxing, it's the worst way to play games anyway
>>548417687>paired her up with MitsuruBeing good friends doesnt mean theyre together, yurifag. Social links were a last minute addition, Yukari was meant to go in and be the main love interest because of this but they obviously went a different route. There was also the intention of making all the girls in the game have the Lovers arcana at one point, too.
>>548417804RACE WAR NOW
>>548391224Eberron.
I think we should just hang all singlcels so that threads wouldn't devolve into this shit.
>>548418501at least TW would stop existing without 99.7% of the playerbase
>>548391224total war: kingdom death
>>548391224I'd like them to tackle some sort of original fantasy setting that they can use to make "gameplay first" factions without being shackled to lore
>>548417894I tried that with Krokgar but overextended trying to kill everything to the north and the south of me at the same time.
>>548418721Why is shit mutant side mouth shit so common in anime shit?
>>548418721I will never stop being amazed at the japanese ability to create things that are simultaneously cool as hell and impossible to take seriously.
>>548418314I didbut I can see why legend is burned outwhile he continues to mock every balanced army
leddit dropping trvkestldr: we're not getting a galaxymaybe a bunch of sectors at most
>>548419410didn't he say balanced chorf army is one of the best, or was that another less retarded youtuber?
>>548418329Maybe that explains why all the romances in P3 that aren't Aigis are so shit.>>548419035Stylisation; makes it easier to show expressions while the head is in profile. Thouigh in this case it's a werid choice for the girl, seeing as she's facing away from the viewer.
>>548419638go back
>>548419638my guess:one planet, maybe one small system, post cadia/rift, that is completely isolated
>>548419638Why not just have the game take place on one big planet. Cook up a plot why every faction wants it and you're set. This way you won't need to think about irrelevant shit like space combat.
>>548419410>Legend of Total War here, this army is SHIT, its cavalry only, has no artillery, which is the Empire's strong suit, its just reiksgaurd, empire knoights, not sure why you would ever have the two of them when you can just get knoights of the blazing sun only, outriders, outriders with grenade launchers, alright that one is good, but its being held back by being in this army, and, pistollers? Why the hell would you recruit this? I mean I guess you're trying to have a fast reaction force here to larp or something? Well let me fix this army and make it something better while keeping the theme. And an Empire general? For fucks sake, use something better. Well, whatever, let's fix this army.>>Alright, so what I've done is reorganize the army to have 2 great cannons, 2 helstorm rocket batteries, a mix of 3 greatswords and 3 halberdiers to keep enemies off your guns, which by the way I've got 5 handgunners for that role, and I've got 2 outriders with grenade launchers to serve as a harassment unit, and then we've got our usual engineer hero and a loife mage for healing. And as our general we've obviously gotten ourselves an engineer lord, some moight say its overkill to have the lord AND the hero but having two sources of ranged boost lets your armies be really flexible and constantly have a supply of restocks
>>548419638It would simply be represented by "event window" telling us "OMG what will now happen to the galaxy?" while the game continues on like usual because the gameplay happens during an essentially time-frozen period. Just like how conquering world as Archaon implies doomed world, but planet doesn't explode. At most it would result in all human factions becoming rebels - just like how Snikch can turn any +100 settlement super empire into +100 settlement rebel factions via his mechanic.Piss poor easy implementation.
>>548420171The issue I would see is that they probably want to introduce all the named characters from the army books.It would probably strain credulity to have the majority of named characters on one planet.I think multiple sectors would be best
>>548391224Total War: Homeworld
>>548420271>Just like how conquering world as Archaon implies doomed world, but planet doesn't explode.Yet.End Times SOON
>>548419102youre really not suppose to take it seriously, its a game about killing monsters in the dark and getting mauled in the process because you were written into existence to be food for said monsters
>>548420197why make up these scenarios? he disbands units at worst and keeps the whole thing alive at best.
>>548420731Legend antis are deranged desu
>>548414391>accept my apologiesknew it was fake there, that would be plural "our" apologies
>>548420271The planet exploded because people believed in the retarded plans of Teclis. Dunno what that retard was expecting if any of the incarnates died along the way the planet would explode anyway.
>>548420731>why make up these scenarios?I think the joke is that's the opposite of what he'd do
>>548421106You'd think that
You are now manually reminded that Archaon is the protagonist of Warhammer. You are welcome.
You are now manually breathing
I don't think Total Warhammer is for me lad...I think the world and units are really cool but the battles are really boring. I also think the campaigns are really boring. I understand it's called total war but much of the diplomacy has very little meaning except knowing whoever borders you will declare war regardless of their internal state of affairsIs there a modern total war that's similar to Shogun 2's battles and campaign? I find unbreakable units just grinding down forever to be really boring. I liked that you could make alliances and stuff early/mid-game and it had meaning.
>>548421425Attila maybe?
>>548421397>*autoresolves*
>>548421425Shogun 2 has schizophrenic AI the higher the difficulty you play, so if you want something like that play Attila

Does TW3 PvP matchmaking still find games? My friend's chibimanko wants to know
>>548423110Is this why this idiot hates Greenskins and says they're the most boring faction to play?
>>548423330Quite possibly.
>>548423330most probably
>>548423221Frog is that you or is it someone immitating?In case it's you what are your thoughts on the latest DLC units from a multiplayer perspective?
Shouldn't lizardmen actively kill all humans since they provide Chaos with the biggest amount of worshippers and champions?
>>548423498Faggot simping for a thread personality.
>>548423763plaque says no
>>548423763Rock said don't. Respect the Stone.
>>548423763That's mostly Norscans, Kurgans etc. Wild tribes chaos worshipers are a minority among civilized humans and civilized humans fight chaos
>>548421425>but the battles are really boringSame for me, I'd love to play the battles but they're either boring or a tedious slog.Historical battles should be "boring" in comparison but are always a lot more fun, probably because tactics actually matter instead of "who has the more broken unit/lord"
>>548398771For me? Zant.
>>548423763Fantasy is not 40k, The vast majority of humanity has their own, non chaos pantheon. Their priests can actively direct their souls to their chosen god's or in general to Morr for example.The only reason the norscans can constantly fuel invasions and raids is due to warp shenanigans and time fuckery caused by it.
>>548424661I thought they were just built different
>>548419638GW doesn't give a flying fuck about canon. Noncanon games keep being made all the time. You can kill Abaddon as Spire in BFGA1&2. You can kill Guilliman even. Rogue Trader is noncanon as well and is very new. TWW itself is noncanon, Fatshark could make you defeat Archaon as Kruber too if they wanted, but it looks like they prefer to keep their games somewhat fitting the setting. That ork platformer is noncanon too
>>548423840https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0YGZPycMEU lol
>>548349110Zombie pirates seem to be having a lot of fun from their voice lines.They get to go on adventures places normal humans couldn't survive while being simultaneously not afraid of death. They get to ride on giant crabs and flesh mechs. They have numerous career paths and can advance to hero status. They canonically work shifts, pound rum, and retire to gambling dens in the evening. There's a 50% chance their boss is a fit milf in tight pants. Sometimes after battles the Admirals say they just want the blood and the crew can keep the treasure. Pirate Zombies are living the life. On boarding sounds rough but I want what they're having. .
>>548419638You can conquer Ulthuan in WH3 as a chaos faction and nothing happpens, how's this any different? These games are a sandbox to smash armies together, not a story narrative meant to tie into the greater setting.
>>548424764they are built different, theyre seen by their gods unlike those godless southlanders
>>548424848this. Although I suppose GW doesn't care that much about fantasy lore
>>548424848The Vortex landmark should actively affect every other faction on the map, for better or for worse. It would give you a reason to care if the Helves are getting fucked up, because (for example). imagine if the mono breasted dickhead N'Kari takes it and it just causes the world to slowly become more fucked with Slaaneshi corruption and make magic way more unstable. That would be pretty cool.

>>548425306You can't just "take" the vortex. That's literally why Malekith lost the sundering. The Vortex will attack you and kill you if try to tamper with it. Only Malekith survived the backlash and knows that Caledor is alive in it and can actually command it to attack anything he likes.

>>548427243While it is currently not illegal for you to be a cocksucking faggot, that doesn't mean you need to prance around declaring it for the world to see. Have some decorum, poof.
>>548391224One of the settings they proposed was D&D. Proposed in the sense of the poll asking what people were a fan of (also asked fucking BSG, which I guess would be a pure naval space simulator). I actually think D&D, be it faerun or Pathfinder (yes yes not D&D fuck off you know what I mean) would be an interesting approach. It'd be DEI to hell sure, but in terms of sales success:>Make your own legendary lordNow all the vtubers, all the streamers are gaga for your game. Now you can sell DLC that gives you more cosmetic shit to fuck with.>DLC/fantastical additionsHuge volume to work with, although outside of D&D nerds nobody knows much about glup shitto shit. However how many knew of Aislinn or Rakarth and so on? Laypersons know the big four chaos gods, they might have known of Karl or Malekith but a vast majority of Fantasy was utterly unknown. So this isn't as big a deal as you think>WOTCPain. But they've worked with Gdubs.>Faerun is not 'big total war' orientedPathfinder seems to be more so.>>548389958I am caught up in the autism of texturing equivalents of glub shitto with excessive unit variance, but depending on what the fantasy thing is and if my interest holds I still harbor a vain aspiration to try and jerry-rig something iron agey for Pharaoh. First just visually and troop type, then maybe if the interest holds still politically. I was able to get a settlement swap working since I'd never fucked with LUA scripting before, so that was good. The map, except for missing the Iranian Plateau (Medes) and the upper Caucasus (Urartu) covers just about everything necessary. CA's Mesopotamia stuff is all squarely iron age in general visuals, the cities generally overlap well with it visually. Cavalry is more prevalent which helps mitigate the excess of chariots, given it's unfortunate how CA has chariots behave like cavalry. I love how in bannerlord cavalry keep moving and hit and run by default - my wish was you would have melee chariots do the same.
