Legend was right btw
>>548703021FOR BLOOD KEEP
>>548703227he showed proof of the first DLC of his leak, so he earned the right to invent two more DLCs with no proof and leak those as well

How do you fight Chaos Knights of Tzeentch as an early game High Elf?

>>548703783STAUNCH
>>548703783isn't literally all you have spears and missile units?
>>548703783Without AP and low tier units? You can't without cheese. Corner camp with spears and archers.
>>548703620Constant stream of news and pretty decent news, not dripfeeding us one animation a week. DLC is imminent. Also the supposedly big news with game announcements and shit.
Legendary lord effects>-10% cost for wind of death spells>-30% upkeep on grave guardFaction effects>+20 relations with Vampire Counts factions>can subjugate other Vampire Counts factions by defeating them into battle>-20% upkeep on skeleton and zombie units

"Future of TW:WH3" any day now!(You) are here:>Nagash announcement means the game is officially over depsite it potentially selling like toilet paper during covid. Why would CA want to make even more money are you stupid?Rich Aldridge said during latest Discord Q&A that WH series has a lot of life still left in it.
>>548704243LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>548704263oh they'll make plenty of new DLC.(...After 2028).(...Unless there are any changes of plans).
Did you know that Rome 2 received a second wave of DLC years after it was originally shelved?
It's Summer time for Legend everyone
>>548704552You're right CA will force Sofia to make another histoid flop because they've been making too much money lately and that has to stop!
AoS would be about 10 billion times better if the Sigmarines didnt have such a space marine designIf they were like Dark Souls knights I would be hype for a total war
LEAKS LEAKS ITS HAPPENING10 images in total droppedhttps://postimg.cc/SX5kkbPbSCREENSHOT QUICK before it gets taken down
>>548704934You're saying no new games are coming out?And I'm supposed to be the pessimist
>>548705265I aint clickin that
>>548704934>a full year with no product>layoffs in the hundreds>too much money wat
>>548704263Man, we live in such a blessed timeline. TWWH era is the best Total War has ever been, and it gave new life to the best setting GW ever made. The fact that it was made in the first place is crazy enough, but the fact that it lasted so long and has repeatedly been kino is nothing short of a miracle. This has been the golden age of /twg/ and the Total War community as a whole. Be happy that you were a part of it.
>>548705123nah the problem with AoS is the map.It is utter goo goo bananas retardation. It was designed so that it would never make sense and you could never get a geographic feel of where things are.
>>548705436
>>548703021count supremacy
>>548705531Her body is a 10 but her face is a 3
>>5487052722 new games made by main UK teams and Alien Isolation made by console team. Neither of them is Sofia.>>548705415Contrary to popular beliefs TW:WH still makes money. Layoffs were applied to the Hyenas team which I'm assuming was the console team.
>>548705265Interesting.....
>>548705627good news anon, you don't have to look at it
>>548704934Sofia is the fantasy DLC slop team thoughbeit
>>548705531Vampire mommies...
Total war mosscairn…soon.
>>548704912Sometimes I wish lizardmen weren't killer robots with only some of them having enough self awareness to realize autistically following a plan they barely understand and they were all more like that skink that gives me funny feelings instead, just doing his best to survive and fight chaos.
>>548703783Why would you need to fight those early exactly? They have silver shields and barrier. Real answer would be spells
>>548705123Like this?
>>54870526540sisters.... I don't feel so good....
When 4th December ends with no mention of TW 40K, will that be the end of it or will 40K fags cope before the next CA announcement as well?
Total War: Total WarYou play as different Total War titles.
>>548706138They'll probably kill themselves when they see it's Star Wars kino
>>548706150Pharaoh Dynasties arches would body everything in every TW.
>>548705265Yea bro your like 2 days late on that, all that shits AI generated.
>>548705641Yeah source on all of that shit faggotYou fuckers always spew shit about how CA works internally and never post evidence.I could just as easily claim the layoffs impacted everyone.Which given that they laid off a minimum of 245, and potentially as many as 363 (per their statements) out of a workforce 882 (per their website before they pulled the numbers) seems pretty fucking likely.
Do you know the best way to stop Kairos from screwing you on the campaign map?
>>548706138We know for a fact they are announcing two games. So what are they? Because everything 40k deniers suggest instead is ultimately just less plausible than it being 40k
>>548706326You can't, Tzeentch is too powerful. Next time play as a Tzeentch faction instead.
>>548706326"Oracles of Tzeentch have been obliterated! There is nothing left apart from the echoing laughter of thirsting gods."
>>548706358We'll see in 4th December
>>548706318there are thousands of ex-CA employees, we do know how they operatebeside, Hyenas was 1/2 funded by the UK gov
>>548706123Better but still a bit too bulkyAlso they should never take off their helmets. Make me doubt there is even a physical body.
>>548706358Who knows, even that LEGO Total War screenshot posted earlier could be true
>>548705641>2 new games made by main UK teams and Alien Isolation made by console team. Neither of them is Sofia...And who will make DLC for these two new games? How can you believe Sofia will be free of work in 2027 and maybe even 2028?This will be THE most important time for bug fixing and pushing marketing for the two new titles. There won't be time for Warhammer Fantasy after End Times.Maybe (MAYBE) later in the years.
>>548706318>be company that only sells TW gameshttps://www.dbltap.com/news/total-war-has-just-delivered-its-strongest-quarter-in-years-despite-content-drought>deliver strongest quarter in sales>I guess we better layoff gorillion employees who are making TW gamesYeah right.
I'd like this guy to be my next Nurgle LL and have his voice sound like the Plague Champion from DoW 2
>>548706358Don't reply to him, he's just an asshole who denies 40k because "no proof".He has no arguments, he has no predictions, he didn't form a coherent line of reasoning.He just heard "40k" and his head autocompleted "bad" so he's denying it in every thread for no reason other than generic bitterness.
>>548706749Do nothing...WinHow can we possibly defeat CA?
>>548706742And who was making the fucking DLCs for WH3 despite making 2 new TW games in the background before it was completely given away to Sofia huh? Gnomes? Alternate reality workers from different dimension? Parts of the UK team dummy.
>>548706534>there are thousands of ex-CA employees, we do know how they operateThousands of ex employess and not one shred of evidence to post? Yikes.>Hyenas was 1/2 funded by the UK govAnother myth /twg/ swallowed without evidence.Creative Assembly is nowhere to be found on the website of companies that received money. Further, its obvious if you read that tweet for more than 2 seconds that they are using CA as an example of what they hope these companies will become>>548706749What are you even talking about, faggot?We were talking about how CAs teams (if they even exist) operate, and if layoffs affected them.>I guess we better layoff gorillion employees who are making TW games???Read the fucking company statements
>>5487073033 Swordmasters of Hoeth would obliterate 10 Zombies.
Love Yourself And Total War Too
>>548707506depends on buffs/debuffs
>>548706760I'm sorry anon but this is TWW3 and we can't allow real SOVL to slip in. Sorry.
>>548707035The UK team was not developing games in the background when Sofia was making Troy and Pharaoh, they were all making only DLC, that's why after the release of Pharaoh someone had to take over, so they could work on the next games....and this was before the big Hyenas catastrophe and the layoffs and the restructuring.They can't work on three games at once with two downsized studios - I'd argue they can barely do two games at once now, every time they tried rushing their work it was a disaster too, and they've seen delays pay off. There is no fucking way we're getting 40k dlc and Fantasy DLC in parallel in the same year
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
>>548707845It's obviously going to be Ikaruga Total War.
>>548707845Total War: Westeros Soon, Friends
>>548707845>original fantasy IPthe most deranged insane choice of them all
>>548707845>HistoricalTotal War: War of 1812>FantasyTotal War: Hyperdimension Neptunia
>>548707271And that didn't stop them from making 2 new TW games, sequel to Alien Isolation and uflopping of Pharaoh.>>548707804It's their words against yours, CA said they want to announce 2 new TW games and AI2, neither of us can guess the release date of either of those games.
>>548708409>And that didn't stop themWhat the fuck do you know? 3 of those games are still in dev. You have no insight, you have no idea how it affected them, what has or hasnt been cut because of the layoffs.
Soon.
I did not have nagash on my bingo card at all. What are CA thinking when they produce one dlc a year?
>>548708759AS THE DARKNESS FALLSAND ARABY CALLS
>>548707271Not directly from the gayness fund, but through other meanshttps://www.theguardian.com/games/2019/oct/02/revealed-global-video-games-giants-avoiding-millions-in-uk-tax-sony-sega>inb4 tax breaks are not fundingAnyway, since nobody important got sacked, everything is fine
>>548707804Historical and 40k will just be staggered. Its not hard to understand. There's been a historical team working on things since roughly the end of 3 Kingdoms and they could plausibly have a game quite soon with 40k quite a bit later
I'm calling it: we're getting an ET DLC focused on Nagash designed to thematically tie in with the next TW game set in the Age of Smegmar universe.
>>548708845...that Nagash will be hype enough to wait for December 2026 with the promise of a "bigger (last) DLC".It also stops any rumors of Araby or Dogs of War or Khuresh or Monkey King or whatever.It's a surrender masquerading as a victory lap.
>>548708952Thank you for posting a source. With this we can at least say that some of the cost was at least potentially mitigated.Still irrelevant to the question that originally started all of this, which is CAs internal workings/teams.
>>548708717If games are in development it straight up means work on them didn't stop. Example of game with stopped development is 3K - DLC development stopped and dev team moved on to something else, which they confirmed.
>Hey, you. You're finally awake.
>>548708242They'd been leaning harder and harder on the narrative angle with Dynasties, so I don't think it's beyond the realm of possibility. The foolishness is more they fumbled the one perfect time to do a mythos:TW with going with egyptian civil war instead. It's a shame because it would do well financially if you threw in the norse and made it AOM but total war functionally, but people are deathly allergic to the period now.It's a real bummer because it writes itself: Each god is a faction, with the legendary lord being a hero (and in some cases the god themselves). The sea people threat is some kind of titanomachy where the negative gods (annunaki, norse giants, Titans, Satan, Angra Mainyu) emerge. You can trace Egyptian gods to pharaohs who are inflated to their propagandistic claims: Ramessess II is Ra's legendary lord and has a pet lion beside him, Cleopatra to Isis, with some plot contrivance for the mixing of time. Thutmoses the great warlord is Thoth's, someone like Dionysus and Hercules would be faction and lord in one, Odin has Siegfried. Trickier would be the Christian God having King Arthur and whatnot.Won't ever happen but you'd have done better with that than with the bronze age collapse. >>548708759Imma be pissed if I can't play as Nagash in some capacity. Be shitty if he's Kroak style but I'll take it, I want start off as bitch-boy-ghost spirit and ascend to supremacy. All against Nagash, chaostide and ordertide. Just skeletons as far as the eye can see.
>>548706760>it'll probably never happeni can only dream (and suffer)
>>548703021
>>548709215Nagash isn't a character that can carry a DLC. He's Aislinn-tier of boring.
>>548709353total war myth would've been baller
We Are Charlie Kirk song but instead its We Are Total War
>>548709621Total War: America
>>548709271Ok, and?The whole point of this conversation was this >>548705641>Layoffs were applied to the Hyenas team hich I'm assuming was the console team.I said there is no source for this. You have yet to present one. Who gives a shit if they stopped dev or didnt? Thats not the what I was asking.wtf
>>548704263>naked Repanse with giant dildo
>>548706014But they're not killer robots and even if they're marginal to GW and "No peace, just war"
>>548708235>>548707845Warhammer fantasy only works because its already a table top game where most units can just be lifted 1-1.Its insane the dumb fantasy settings people suggest that are nothing like this. LoTR could work MAYBE and thats it realistically
>>548709621you expect me to know what this zoomer pol shit is? go back where you came from
>>548708759>Nagash campaign is just him trying to catch up to Mannfred and Volkmar stealing his books
>>548709851Унбoтхepeд. Moиcтypизeд. Хaппы. Ин Mы Лaнe. Фoцyceд. Флoypишинг.
>>548709147Can you seriously believe with a straight face that the addition of two extra games to the DLC cycle won't slow down development?imagine this:Nagash in summer 2026, then 40k released on october 2026, then Monkey King DLC in january 2027 and the first 40k DLC in march, then Dogs of War summer 2027 and the second 40k DLC for october 2027 and so onDoes this sound doable?It's crazy, with two teams of reduced size, a new engine and all that, they can't keep that pace. And I couldn't even fit Medieval 3 in that soup.You know what's more realistic?2027 we get Nagash and 40k. Nothing else.2028 we get the first and the second 40k DLC or Med3. Meanwhile a Fantasy DLC is prepared for end 2028 or january 2029.The priority is the other newer games, Fantasy will be on the back burner.
>>548710057What is this schizo meme where people write English phrases using Cyrillic letters?
If they're adding Nagash, then they have to add Sigmar, AoK Tyrion, and Eternity King Malekith
>There's been a historical team working on things since roughly the end of 3 Kingdomswhere is the proofs
Whats the bingo cards some anons made
>>548710261Or they could not do that.
>>548710261Tyrion won't be the Avatar as it dies and Tyrion is just the incarnate after that.
>>548709691Did you not notice how I said "I'm assuming" it was the console team? You're the idiot here because for you "assumption" == "fact". How can I prove a random guess? Are you retarded?
>>548709923based anon living under a rock. I wish I didn't knew Charlie Kirk died.
>>548710204I believe 40k could be years away, possibly on a new engine. Wouldnt be surprised if it gets a "when its ready" release date on Thursday
>>548710261they should add asoiaf tyrion
>>548710204>Doomer realised its a lost cause saying "Its the last DLC" every DLC>Now moved on to an even more brain-dead ideaThese niggas might actually be retarded
>>548710261Daddy Dragon ?
>>548710665Dinklage should voice a dwarf.
>>548710581who?
it's joever for Total Warhammer
>>548710858It was a good run. TW2 especially.
>>548710738I accept your concession.
>>548710569I dont give a shit about if it was or wasnt the console team retard. Im questioning this part>Layoffs were applied to the Hyenas team
>>548710204You guys are retarded.>ET comes next year >Med3 comes next year and is a whole different team, doesn't affect fantasy at all>40k comes out in 2027> main Fantasy team gets split up between 40k and Fantasy warhammer until fantasy gets finally done and they focus on 40k and whatever is the next fantasy game.
These were truly the Total War: Warhammer 3: The End Times.
>>548710462If they weren't working all this time on historical title, then that would kinda mean that CA devs are on turbo meth and can crank games super fast despite us constantly laughing about pivots, delays and how painfully slow they are. It doesn't make any sense.
>>548710928>TW2 especially.Not really.>vortex>ugly ass orange lighting >norsca debacle>mortal empires map>wasting charlemagnes on a whole faction for vcoastTomb Kings were the only good part of Warhammer 2
>Get TW news>/twg/ gets spammed by /v/iggers>Get TWWH news>/twg/ gets spammed by /tg/iggersReally makes you feel like the ordertide fighting threats from all sides.
>>548710858I'm not a young man anymore but this is AI, correct?
>>548711053>and can crank games super fastThey have released exactly 1 one game since 2022 and that was pharaoh, a troy reskin.
>>548710858that's what dreadfus get for not wearing black lipstick
>>548711152Holy Fanfiction, Batman!
>>548711097what happened at the last second of the video bros?
>>548711298Yeah but they ALMOST released HYENAS

>>548711375Large AoE spell
>>548710972I'm assuming that Hyenas team is the console team and assuming that layoffs happened to those people. This entire statement is an assumption. Is it easier to understand now? You're incredibly autistic about the most menial thing. Couldn't you argue with someone else how 40k can't be made on TW engine or something instead?
>>548711405how much TW content Hyenas cost us?Dogs of War for sure
>>548711639Snake sisters when?
>>548711320She's so fucking nice, too bad she would rape and kill me if I asked her out.

>>548710858I'll never forget my dreadfu
Would Nagash be able to recruit Ulrika? In the end times he mind controls all the vamps to side with him.
>>548703227Who? How many tournaments has he won? What's his rank on Total Tavern?
>>548711929damnwhat a physiquewhy isn't Settra built like Skeletor?
Nagash was weak
>>548712192Settra is actually one of the physically strongest characters in Warhammer
>>548712159this guy is very skilled at drawing femboys and twinks but can't really draw anything else.
>>548712116But I said from the start it was an assumption...Nevermind

>>548712159Once the soul is gone he can only raise a zombie. Unless it's bound with a ritual before death the soul can't be returned without chaos intervention.
>>548711483>Was Vortex good?No but it was and still is better than Realm of Chaos>Was the lighting good?No but it was and still is better than WH3s lighting>Did they not fuck up porting Norsca?They also fucked up porting them to 3 and are only barely going to fix them, not to mention theyre an NPC faction.>Was the ME map not squished as hell?The Immortal Empires map is even more squished than Mortal Empires. If you had mentioned the difficulty slider being shit on VH battle difficulty you'd have an argument but even then, WH2 was better than Slophammer 3 and only retards think otherwise.

>>548712953Nothing is quite like Shogun 2.Maybe Fall of the Samurai.Perhaps Attila.Maybe Pharaoh but I never played that one.Medieval 2 is the easiest Total War game by far, that's why I'd rather suggest Rome 1 remastered or original.
>>548713114Grim, even.
>>548713134Can't believe CA never added Archaon, its been almost 10 years.
>>548713114Volkmar jobs to manlet in the same story Ghorst is from.
>>548713003decay is life, it's one thing feeding on the death of another and that's what nurgle is. life from death.Nagash wanted only death cause chaos cannot exist without life to feed it.
>>548713134Colossal if correct
total war: anime girls
>>548713035According to "muh lore", yes.According to TWW, who know.
>>548712818king shit
>>548712356>>548712818holy cuckhammer
>>548713003Nurgle was slowly retconned into being "inevitable cycle of death and rebirth".Yes, "death" used to be Nurgle and "rebirth" used to be Tzeentch, but Nurgle slowly ate away Tzeentch's design space and now Nurgle is also the God with most mutations and the God of rebirth.Because GW loves Nurgle and hates Tzeentch.
>>548713271Nurgle can't create life. His life is undead the ultimate stagnation. Do people really forget the first and original zombie/undead of warhammer isn't made by Nagash but by Nurgle? Poxwalkers, anyone?
>>548713421Arkhan is a true cuck, he would give up his wife to Nagash big boner if he was still alive.It is known.
>>548713134yes, yes, Didieat a snickersyou're not you when you're hungry
>>548713003Nurgle represents the unchanging cycle of death and rebirth faggot. His garden is vibrant and blooming with all kinds of horrible things.
>>548713389Why is there a Dawn of War Eldar Avatar in my Warhammer Fantasy?
Nurgle should have been changed to being the god of horrid mutatuon and corruption or some shit, infringing on death and decay is too necromancy adjacent.
>>548713421Heinrich Chadmmler is the only necromancer with a pair of balls. First campaign after the Nagash DLC is out is decking him in the snoz as the Lichemaster.
>>548713420lmao, what a jobber, even his name starts with>N
Nagash's old model was better
>>5487134831st of all, Poxwalkers are from 40k.2nd, they're not dead, no matter how bad they look. the pox is a virus and needs a living host.
can Dechala's mechanic be reworked into Beastmen breeding pens?
Nagash's new model is better.
>>548713192What is it about Med2 that makes it easy?
>>548713852unc...
how will Mannfred feel after he sees Nagash pop out of a spirit/ghostly nuke?
>>548713575he kind of is the fantasy protagonist if you think about it
Nagash was weakWitness true power*switches lore of magic*
>>548713680Hey
I don't want Total War: Warhammer Age of Signar. I WANT Total Warrior: Warhammer Age of Sigmar! Gimme musou game now! Wan million skaven troops (dead), wow!
>>548714051Archaon is the God Emperor of Warhammer.
>>548714079Does anyone have chibi Tyrion ie. artstyle as pic related? I wanted to post that, but couldn't find it, so I had to crop another pic.
>>548714105Spartan: Total Warrior was genuinely a good game.
>>548713874Chainswords are also from 40k. Also you need to die to the virus to become a poxwalker you retarded secondary. In fact it's not a virus at all but a spell a chaos sorcerer casts to create the first infected or you can cast it on corpses and raise them instantly.
>>548714105There's one race I don't see mentioned here...
>>548714301No, shut up Everwhore
>>548710997>Fantasy gets doneTo you guys it'll never be done. There'll always be some glub shitto to add and once you've run out of anything even plausible it'll suddenly be time for war of the beard or polar vortex campaign or the old world. Or you'll see the issue people have with constant arms race escalation of:>X needs updating>Well Y needs updating because it was out of date like X>Z needs updating because it was left behind>You know, X is getting old, now it needs updatingIt'll never end. The china leak is the best you can hope for where it's end times (five factions), another three lord pack, and maybe another 3 lord pack (or composite equivalent of single lords like Neferata). Once 40k drops there'll be no reason to waste your manpower on DLC when they could be put to a more productive use than adding scrumbus the wumbusmunger the super cool and amazing legendary lord who got half a paragraph in 1985.Or of course the delusions of Ind and Khuresh. CA keep saying it's not on the table for now and people going that dumb and dumber >so you're saying there's a chance...Instead of just accepting the likelihood is the same as GW suddenly deciding to abolish the end times and allow an alternative timeline. Sure it's possible - like it's possible a meteor will fall on your head.

>>548714541that's your wife you're talking about, man
>>548713987the cavalry is very powerful and the player can use it much much better than the AI.The computer player also doesn't always move the units that are under fire.There are no phalanxes or defensive formations so you always get the first devastating charge on the enemy. The enemy breaks and routs as easily as Rome 1 but now they start every battle eating missiles and charges and sometimes they can't even react before the rout starts.
>Total War: 40k>Factions: Tau, Necrons, Eldar>Ultramarines faction as pre order bonus.How big would the backlash be?

I can't wait for the Sisters of Battle faction in tw40k. CA teased me with Penthesilea in Troy and then blueballed me out of Amazons in Pharaoh or TWWH. But in 40k they are an inevitability

>>548716078Isha and Nurgle
>>548716356You forgot about Gaybriel and Macha.

>>548716739>>548716356Do half elves exist in 40K? If not, then what's the point?
>>548716930They were retconned out
>>548716603>one of the best stories of the 40k universe is yaoi
>>548716806Sad!
>>548716930Cross species chimeras are very problematic
>>548716660LIIVI and Taldeer is the most romantic thing to have ever come out of Warhammer as well as /tg/, it was so good that GW had to kill any chance of it happening but still referenced it multiple times
>>548717167So they had plans for DLCs huh? I wonder what would those be.
>>548717401Something to do with the Normans. They did actually add another end game crisis for free where the Normans invade with their powerful units.
>>548706292*laughs in Testudo*
>>548717167>Yet another game that was killed by LegendSad!
>>548706292Spet Xyon Archers would like to have a word with you
>>548717017All of the best stories in 40k are doomed yaoi actually
>>548711053We already know every project that was under development before 2025 was canned due to the huge leadership shakeup. The games they're revealing on the 4th would have started production either late '24 or the start of '25 and likely won't be released until mid or late '26.This big reveal event is happening as much for investors as it is for us, because after a year of having literally nothing to sell, CA has to prove to its financiers that it is actually cooking something worth waiting for.
>>548712953Napoleon is the most like Shogun 2.Rome 1 and Medieval 2 are the classics and worth checking out if you're not filtered by old games.Attila is probably the only 'modern' TW game worth playing but it's very different from the Shogun 2 era games.
>>548717971I guess that means anywhere between 3 to 5 more years of WH3 DLCs if not more.
>>548713389erm we already have Archaon doe?
>>548718770Do we?It's not like we've seen his face.
>>548712192>damn>what a physique>why isn't Settra built like Skeletor?What's crazy is that Skeletor is just some blue skin nigga that like to walk around almost naked.
There have been some discomforting rumours concerning the potential identity of Archaon's father.
>>548716004This actually seems really likely. Also the canoness will be black and mods to change it will be banned off the workshop. Honestly there will be a lot of black models and the game will be heavily shitposted for it
You guys are insane if you think CA will EVER do something like Bretonnia again.An entire DLC worth of stuff for free.It was insane to begin with
people seem to think that the space marine faction is going to be like a custom Daniel race, and maybe there will be a faction like that, but there’s no way they’re going to miss out on selling all the different space marine chapters as DLC
>>548719865Bretonnia was absolutely a relic of TWW1 where they weren't expecting the game to be huge.
>>548719865Before warhammer paypigs showed up free factions weren't unheard of.
>>548715307>Redeems himselfTyrion did nothing fucking wrong. His daughter was murdered for a retarded ritual and his own brother hung him out to dry and switched sides to help Malekith marry his gf.
>>548719980Yeah the paypiggies will go whole hog for Black Templars at the least.
>>548716596
>>548720091>paypiggiespoorfags baka
>>548720198Damn that's a nice Miao!
>>548719980I think the factions will be like LLs in TWWH where each chapter will be represented by their own leader who each has different buffs and specialty units but all are space marines. One LL will be the custom chapter lord. I don't think they'll do a custom one at all though because they'd have to do it for each faction and this is CA we're talking about
>>548719865>>548720024>>548720091Wasn't Thorek free to play for WH2 players without owning WH1?Wasn't Be'lakor free to play for WH3 players without owning any WoC dlc?Or am I misremembering?
>>548719980I think it will be both.
>>548720198i look like this
What if Nagash ripped your skull out of your head mid campaignWould that be fucked up or what

Fuck give me my update now the sea fix for lokhir and coast add even more content to the game than the dlc does
can't wait to play franz again!
It's obvious with anyone with half a brain that Warhammer 4 end times is the next fantasy game. Why the hell would they bother fixing sieges in a series that at the end of its lifecycle if there wasn't another warhammer game in the making?
I have been watching a good bit of battles in TWW3 and stuff. Why are there not many objects, etc. for cover on the field? It's mostly just flat areas.
>>548723954Why do you keep saying this?
>>548723954Don't be dumb. Warhammer hexalogy obviously won't end with Warhammer 4
Didn't they fix this?

>>548724196>Why are there not many objects, etc. for cover on the field? It's mostly just flat areas.Im afraid that's ancient Atlantean levels of lost technology
Is it too late to start a new campaign?
>>548725957Yes, the game has been removed from existence and no one can play it anymore
>>548725887>Im afraid that's ancient Atlantean levels of lost technologyIt will be recovered for TW:40k.
>>548726068I mean before the new dlc drops retard.
>>548726098Will they recover pre-battle speeches too?
>>548726179Only for Orks
>>548726098Perhaps CA will cross the alps and open the oldest vault

>>548726617Just play on normal anon
>>548726617Just don't autoresolve first hundred battles
>>548726179Some speeches are already present in WH3 for WH3 lords, perhaps not in the way most people want, but that's a start.>>548726406What would be the equivalent for TW?

a moment of silence for that backup lord that died following your LL because you thought it was in reinforcement range but it wasn’t for some reason and got attacked alone and destroyed. maybe they sieged your city with the LL in it to isolate your backup stack, or maybe it’s a bug, but you’re on ironman so it’s gone forever *spills drink*

>>548736628It's probably going to be Daniel style
>>548736628Literally what the fuck would he get as his own race? It’s just recycled vampire counts, vampire coast and tomb king units.
>>548737285Because nobody fucking likes him in undead camp, he is not a vampire count, he is not a tomb king no more, he can't have their buildings.
>>548737398But he doesn’t have his own units you stupid fuck. They’re obviously not going to make a race pack just for him.
>>548733495Yea ok but I have a life loser.
>>548736628He's a campaign pop-up event, like the blood for the blood god ones. Once he "resurrects" all the undead factions get +4 melee attack for 10 turns.

question? any cool youtubers to watch that do commentary and gameplay like mister legend?
Nagash IS the neferata Vampire Counts DLC, not the End Times proper DLC.The leaker of Tides of Torment, who got all the factions right and all the units said we were getting Moonclaw. It will NOT be a beastmen DLC but a FLC LL for beastmen who don't have one. Along with TK Vcoast will got a legendary hero for their factions with nagash since they don't have a LH either.DoW might be a FLC faction like the frnech knights who Rich from CA WILL get some sort of rework. We have Egrimm, his magical trolls from the loading screen text left to add for Tzeentch.Then we have the END TIMES DLC. Monkey king and ape men soliders, maybe tigermen of Ind for Cathay. Glottkinand nurgle stuff, Middenland empire dlc.This is my prediciton for TW3
>>548704263>Tr/a/nnime art >SoulfulYikes
>>548740275I'm guessing you won't be railroaded into doing the whole end times by the book, assuming narrative events will be implemented. Although chinese leak did mentioned world shaping events.
>>548740640Vtubers. Pick one at random, they are all pretty much the same.
>>548738612She cute
>>548740773i dont think i could endure more than 2 minutes of them squealing or saying cutesy shit anonalso women arent enjoyable to listen to
I STILL BELIEVEA MIRACLE WILL SAVE WARHAMMER 3
Is there a chance that we might get today a new historical game teaser?
What's the best dwarf LL to confederate the others that's not Malakai? Sick of playing him. Does Belegar end up having good faction effects for capturing K8P?
>>548740767Point is you'll be able to directly influence shit and won't be as terrible or ineffective as the actual end times characters Ergo the world won't end and there'll be an end state where you win Nagash existing doesn't mean the story will end. He won't pop into existence out of the blue either. Like the mod, starting our small and amassing power makes sense
>>548741135No. I'm going to anti-leak and tell you that all historical games that were in development have been cancelled, and have been cancelled for about two years.
>>548707303Eltharion jobbed to Arkhan that fight btw
>>548741329I think we have like a dozen of guys telling the same thing for the whole WH lifecycle.
>>548741505It's almost like that's what's been happening since the failure of ToB. Troy wasn't even internally marketed as a historical game, it was "truth behind the myth". A fantasy title, like Three Kingdoms. Pharoah was the first true historical game since ToB, and that failed spectacularly.
>tfw you'll never be a super-ancient nearly omnipotent arch-necromancer being revived in a grand and terrible ritual that a race of elves distant to ever knowing you who fancy themselves as the custodians of the world send an army to preventLiterally why live?
>>548741320I'm guessing this is also going to be their attempt at making an enjoyable endgame.
>>548741606>Pharoah was the first true historical game since ToB, and that failed spectacularly.Hmm I dunno, for me it seemed like an attempt to jew out a troy reskin. Bro it's a full fledged historical game, trust and pre-order to get a fucking bodyguard skin swap.Nobody believed them and there is that.
>>548741864You're not contradicting me in the slightest.
>>548741679Nagash and the end times are separated as dlcI'll bet money on it
>>548741505>DozenJust one delusional faggot who thinks V*lound is out to get him or something. He's on a quest in his head.
>Nagash is released with an extremely weak gimmick>End Times "fixes" it>CA is just monetizing bad game design
>>548741894What I'm trying to say is we still don't have historical game from a main history team.
>>548723268I wish they would let Franz have the Imperial Dragon as a mount option. It would be really cool, just make it more expensive points-wise and slower than death claw to keep the birdy viable.Dunno why CA hasn’t gone for that yet.Unless they’re afraid to reveal that the “Cold and Aloof” Imperial Dragon really is just Miao Ying doing some pet play with Franz…
>>548742124And I'm saying you never will again because what CA wants is to make games for popular fanbases, and thought they could do that through historical fiction books like Three Kingdoms and the Illiad. This did not work. They tried to release a historical title using Troy as the launching point to save costs, this didn't work either.Enjoy Star Wars Total War and similar until the franchise dies.
>>548742417whatever faglord
>>548742340Deathclaw already makes him a melee behemoth as soon as you start stacking on the buffs, dragon would be a pointless extra option
>>548742492Cope.Historical doesn't make money outside of Rome and Medieval. They'll never do Medieval 3 because CA doesn't want the chuds that'll bring in. They want established fanbases and reliable profits.
>sorta zooted, thinking about the et dlc>new narrative end times campaign map ala beastmen/welves in wh1 for the new LL's and some old ones like franz and archy>nagash: you start as actually mannfred's faction with guest LL arkhan and TK units in sylvania, spend like ~30-40 turns doing quests to prepare for the ritual, big quest battle (what we see in the teaser today), nagash revives and your faction transforms into his for the rest of the campaign>realize something that cool is no way fucking happening>sad
>>548742778Get ready for the Skaven to be more busted than they currently are because ET lore turned them from the likeable retards that cant get anything done like wacky Saturday morning cartoons into the most competent race in WFB
What's a fun campaign to play before the DLC? have about 8 hours of free time the next 2 days.
>>548742902>mfw the recent 40k books subtly imply that Chaos won in WHFB but in reality it was just the skaven locking in and Chaos got a participation trophy
>>548743097Play something else?
>>548742590
>>548743103Skaven ARE a Chaos faction. They're Beastmen and worship a minor Chaos god. They're like Tzaangors for the Horned Rat.
Good morning twg. 1 sleepie left!
>>548743360Yeah, but they're not the main four in 40k and that's who keeps saying "oh it was us who destroyed all those other universes". No it wasn't?
Inb4 Nagash is just an unlock LL from Neferata's campaign, like Boris Ursus and Belakor were.
>>548742523It would give him dragon breath attacks, so that’s pretty nice. Plus more HP ideally.But really it’s just because it would be cool.
>>548743478>Inb4 Nagash is just a LLgod i wish
>Nagash is a LH
>>548743564he will be like ariel, except every order faction can obtain him
>>548743103Thats part of what made the Skaven so boring during the ET, the whole point of the Skaven is theyre meant to lose because they backstab and kill each other nonstop, youre only supposed to have the idea there that the Skaven CAN destroy the world but they dont because otherwise shit ends up boring. Its one of the many issues with ET lore, because once you make a force that outnumbers everyone else by the millions becomes too competent, how do you stop it?
>>548743409Man... we're probably gonna go through like five threads in two hours I'm not joking.
just 33 more hours until 40kiddies get BTFO by STAR CHADScan't wait for their meltdown when Darth Vader appears on screen
>>548743247Nigger, i'm in a TOTAL WAR thread asking for a recommendation. Yeah, i'm not talking about degenerate shit or a balding loser youtuber so I know I wont get much engagement.
>>548743687I don't disagree, but you could say the same thing about Chaos.What I do like about the Skaven's storyline in ET is the ascension of the Horned Rat to Great Horned Rat. It's a good way for the Skaven to complete their arc as a faction. You can't say the same about the Chorfs and Hashut.
>>548743097play Strat Clut
A dozen of /twg/'s 40K posters remained.They were the only survivors of the Total War: Star Wars announcement trailer and they had gathered in the beginning of the new thread. Marineposters, Guardfags and even a few lost looking Eldarcoomers. Anon noticed that there were no Orkchads in their numbers, thinking that perhaps a few had survived the Palpatineposting in the last thread, but knowing that they might as well have been on the other side of /vg/. This was the end. They all knew it. But none of them gave voice to that fact. He knew all their names now. Before, they had just been grime-streaked faces among the endless days and nights of shitposting. But now they were brothers. Anons he would die with, in honour. Flashes of Jabba the Hutt lit up the thread, Jar Jar Binks posts punched across the page, scorching holes through which the incoming Ewokspam could be seen. The Princess Leia AI art rained down on the thread, in time to watch /twg/ die. "Did we hurt them, Anon?", asked a Necronanon, "Did this mean anything?" Anon thought for a moment before replying. "Yes", He said. "We hurt them here. They'll remember this." An image of the Darth Vader pre-order bonus slammed into the thread, finally blasting what little remained of its Mechanicusposts into pieces of scrap and dead dreams. The 40K posters did not throw themselves into cover, or run for shelter. There was little point. The Jedifags were taking over /twg/, and they were thorough. They would not let 40K be posted again. Walls of mocking posts bloomed all across the thread, closing in on them with smug inevitability. The battle for /twg/, was over...

Is there a mod that wipes all confederated lords to level 1 without any of their quests completed?
>>548743773We WILL be pursuing the Galactic Usurpation ending.
>>548743897Star Wars > 40k, sorry y'all.But that doesn't matter, since both franchises are targeted for manchildren min-maxing their escapism builds.Meanwhile Star Trek is over here doing actual intelligent philosophy, not this soap-opera-tier "lmao chainsword/lighsaber go brr/wzzzhooom” shit.
>>548743828I guess but also like, The Horned Rat should have never been taken seriously in the first place. I like to think of it like Da Orkz in 40k.>Orkz united would destroy everything>everyones too stupid to unite and constantly infight nonstop>Ghazghkull exists and is trying to unite them, hasnt happened yet>story in the past about Da Beast existing who did manage to unite all Orkz and almost wiped the Imperium of Man but failed just like Skaven did in the past with The Empire
>He's back! Do you dare to face him?
>Star Wars Total War>it's sequel era in order to push brand synergy>Clone Wars and OT are games 2 and 3
>>548743773>star warsjesus christ man

Sell my on Zhatan over Draz.
>>548744419I completely disagree, I think the Orks should be taken seriously, same as the Skaven, as while out of universe they are indeed comic relief in-universe they're the stuff of nightmares to the Human factions and to themselves they're a bunch of badasses. It's only to the reader that they're comical because of their funny accent, tendency to make mistakes, and obsession with war while having fun with it.It's a mistake to view Orks as "the funny faction", because while Orks can be funny it's because they are fun-ny not a faction of clowns.
>>548744694Oh, I forgot to add:Also, there's an underlying tragedy with the Orks. They used to be so much greater under the Old Ones, and while they are having lots of fun right now in the moment the fact is they long to reach their past state of perfection and that's part of their overall plotline which the War of the Beast only foreshadows.Like the Skaven, one day the Orks will lock in and maybe even give Chaos and Necrons a good asskicking like the old days.
>>548744647Zhatan is a more comfortable start + Bull Centaurs are pretty strong especially against everyone around him. Drazhoath starts with too many potential threats that could attack him at once and he kind of has to spread himself thin to get anything going, Zhatan can also neuter Grimgor before he really gets going and subjugate Cathay rather easily too.
>>548744694>funny accentWhat's funny about that?
>>548744694The fact that an Ork Warboss from Ullanor can put pressure on the Big E is still pretty funny.
I finally defeated my only true rival: myself!
>>548744694>>548744790Youre missing the point but also I guess I wordee that wrong but yes, Orkz and Skaven are threats, theyre obviously bad guys with some strong tech, but the thing is theyre also prone to fucking each other over as much as they fuck others over, which is intentionally done for humor from a writing perspective but also shows that if they werent busy being bound by their nature of constantly fighting like idiots, theyd get shit done, and I think that is more interesting than them actually doing it. As for locking in, they already did it once, and given GWs track record on doing End of the World scenarios, it wont be a fun read if they do it again which is the only time id see Orkz finally uniting together.
>>548744872it's funny, that's what's funny about it
>>548743828Skaven losing their backstabby opportunism in favor of simple religious worship and loyalty to the state is super gay and boring GW was previously smart enough to include numerous schisms to show that even in religious matters, Skaven were divided and constantly fighting
>>548745234"They're constantly fucking each other over" is not a permanent state of affairs, but an inherently temporary one which ends when someone unites all the various factions.It's like saying "The Imperium is impossible, humans would never unite under a single banner, the Emperor's crusade is impossible". It was when people not named The Emperor tried, and then it wasn't when people named The Emperor tried. Disunity implies a state of unity is possible. We're really only debating that the ET did a bad job of explaining why, rather than "well that should never happen".
To all the odious druchii who inhabit these threads I have but two things to say: Alith Anar.
>>548745487When shit goes well, it makes sense for skaven to stick together You need to write them with all their characteristics though- and being opportunistic, every man for himself, grabbing power and so on, even if it fucks over the collective is CORE part of their personality
>>548744694To me, the reason for Orks being seen as the comic relief of 40k is the consistency of their mindset and goals between WFB and 40k.Orks in WFB are still just a bunch of rampaging lads going on a massive bender, but the people opposing them in WFB (unless they’re fighting other disorder factions) are still morally at least somewhat decent and easy to root for. 40k is a lot darker and more morally bleak, but there Orks are comparatively still the same old goofballs. Only now everyone around them is so much more serious, which puts what silliness they possess into far greater relief.This might be a rather extreme comparison, but imagine if somebody made a super gritty and edgy reboot of He-Man where He-Man was a hardened soldier who killed civilians and everything was very bleak. But in this reboot, Skeletor is the exact same guy he was in the original series.
>>548745487The major issue is 40K wants to maintain the status quo, if you unite a giant enemy faction, that breaks up the dynamic, same can be said for Skaven if they hadnt dove into The End Times. If all the Skaven are together, that means everyone else is at a severe disadvantage and it makes for a less compelling setting, why would you want to be on any other side if The Skaven are all together and ready to kill everybody? Its not about the possibility not being there, its always been there, its about how do you follow up the situation? Which again, GW has been shown in more recent years to handle poorly, The 13th Black Crusade ended up a success despite being lead by Abaddon the Armless, Harmless Retard because Chaos had united in the end. What they did as a followup? Everyone got bored and left to do their own thing after The Great Rift appeared.
how is Wurzag these days? Haven't played since he got relocated. Also really havent played greenskins since the gorbad dlc.
im taking this time to play some bannerlord before i remember how shit it isusually takes two days
Nagash vs Kel'Thuzad and Mr. Bigglesworth?
>>548746187it's good until you become a vassal and get screwed over on provinces. Or until you realize there's no depth to provincial management and you'll be wishing it had more in common with total war in that aspect.
>>548746203huh
>>548746082acktually the previous black crusades are not failures, GW said so.

I would love that CA makes TWW30k I just don't see how it will be implimented.
Cant wait for cheats to do what CA is incompetent of doing and making The Dreadmaw a LH like Krell for Sayl. Also, has anyone ever decided to do a Wulfrik one that replaces Seafang with a Landship model you can control?
>>548746591Morgiana...
>>548746853why not 27k or whenever the stuff with technobarbarians was

>>548747110Nightmaw would need more than a little mod, it will be missing every animation besides 'scuttle forward'

Is this a bug or can necrofex's just never get post battle replenishment options?
what campaigns are you guys playing? Would you recommend them?
>>548746853>30k18 factions of spess muhreens, can't wait
love this building. my strategy is to send a cultist to set up a cult in a faction that I plan on fighting later. Then, when I'm done with a war, I can make this building and instantly teleport kairos to a new frontline. I just finished off the slaanesh faction and now I'm immediately teleporting to krok gar.
>>548747585>18 factions of spess muhreens, can't waitThat's all the 40k fans are gonna beg from a 40k game anyway.
>>548746853Total War Horus Heresy would be like the mistake of making Three Kingdoms instead of just a general East Asia Total war in the same time period. HH is a Saga title, not a mainline game.
>>548747569Kairos. Yeah he's a fantastic spell caster. Once you get his spell intensity up, the spells melt units. It's a unique area of the world you don't play in a lot. He's also super rich if you set up his settlements right.
>>548743103What book?

funny how all the shills like GBOG haven't talked about siege "rework" or any of the other issues ? Also another full priced DLC that looks unwhelming Warhammer 3 was priced as a stand alone title and yet it's campaign is unfinished dogshit. It's unbelievable what you all tolerate.

do wood elves have any good books?
>>548749882Are there any good books about WHFB? Aside from Malus's books, G&F, and Drachenfels, obviously. TOW in comparison, is even more depressing.

So far the new Slaneesh units and lord seem to be the most interesting (save for the crossbows)
>>548705440in that case, you didnt look at the latest maps.pretty much every realm focuses on certain continents which are fleshed out.
>>548743828skaven shouldnt degrade themselves by being associated with that loser clique
Let's be real here, you guys only want a new game so you can shitpost it while calling W3 the best tw game ever
>>548751936on the contraryI just want a revenge for what fantasyfags did to histbros
>>548751936>calling W3 the best tw game everNo one has been saying or thinking this.

>All this 40k hypeGuys I would love for it to be 40k but its gonna be age of shitmar. Sigmarines here we come.
Do you remember how exciting it was to conquer Lustria as the old factions when mortal empires first came out in WH2? I want to feel that again.
>>548752139No one's been saying it because it's the latest game.Once a new game is out everyone will turn nostalgic over it
>>548752292Chaos Robbie should make Ulthuan + notAmericas map already

>>548753005is this a bot
I know we like to doompost a lot and shit, but I genuinely, unironically, believe that ToT is going to flop hard and that we'll get a "The Future of Total War Warhammer" before Q2 2026, with no more DLC coming.
>>548753005remember on 8ch when your kind was banned because india was IP banned
>>548753074they're already teasing new DLC
I just woke up1 sleep, 1 fucking sleepI cant believe we will finally be emancipated of the especulationIf its AoS im out though, anything but slopmar
>>548753195Yeah and Pharaoh had a season pass (that they later refunded).
Sure are a lot of people not adequately braced for total disappointment
Age of sigmar is great fuck you, you don't know shit about it and only parrot some bitter incel (gay for dwarves) neckbeard opinion because you're incapable of having your own
>>548753264I'm braced for fun, there's only like 2 bad outcomes for me.
>>548752405>>548753214I hate AOS but I much rather have that then starwars, starwars would only be viable if they did the clone wars. Also I imagine working with the evil mouse company would be very taxing for CA those cunts are really greedy.
>>548753430>starwars would only be viable if they did the clone warsCW has a legitimate TT wargame. It's actually optimal for a TW game.
The Nagash we're getting is just bone daddy, not supreme overlord god voring nagash. Maybe that'll be his win condition and you get to play him like that from turn 80 onwards.All I'm saying is, that for 90% of the people who won't play Nagash much after achieving his victory condition. Mannfred has surpassed Nagash
Star Wars lost all its prestige and culture relevance after Mickey bought and ruined it. Would be suicide to attempt a TTW game on this
>>548753610it might be just a nagash DLC and the actual end times one comes later
>>548753610kinda funny we got a perfectly working nagash mod which actually forces you to ascend
>>548753610>The Nagash we're getting is just bone daddy, not supreme overlord god voring nagashWell yeah, they gotta save some things for LL reworks if they ever do an AoS game
>>548753385Age of sigmar has gotten better as a setting but that took too many years for my liking desu
>>548753430Star Wars right now is a cursed IP. It has negative brand power. There's a reason Disney has started reprinting old EU novels without even any Legends on the cover, and has been porting a lot of old games to modern system.
>>548754014female forcebros...
so basically this means I get infinite winds, right? At 200% spell intensity? people struggle with this lord?
Less than 32 hours left bros.
>>548754117You said less than 32 hours yesterday
>>548754117SOON
>>548754064Still mad thy wasted Keen on that garbage.
200% final transmutation melts dinosaurs. This guy can kill anything.
>>548754101start is horrendous but once you get this it's over for everyone. Luv the grey miasma spell, it melts and it's cheap.
>>548754195Most people give up at the start because of how aids it is.
>>548754238>>548754278start wasn't too bad. Finish your province, then immediately kill Teclis, by the time you're done Oxyotl is at your doorstep and you kill him. Then you just have to take out the lizards above teclis and the slaanesh faction, depending on who declares war on you first. The cult building that teleports your faction leader is super useful for jumping around.actually now that I write it all out it is pretty involved.
>>548754278you can move from the aids start at the start of your campaign apparently.
>>548716078Celestine and Greyfax.
>>548754480that's a lot of cash.
>>548753385It is ultimately irrelevant, Imperial Citizen.
pocket change compared to what you make from your settlements. You'll be making over 5k on each province once they're maxed out
>>548738612>a chick with a sword
>>548754480You can pretty easily ally the slaanesh faction just by giving one settlement to them and then using changing of the ways to take it back, removing them from the equation entirely. Makes them helpful for annoying Teclis because they'll send armies across the sea for him, even if those armies do nothing.
>>548755089mods will fix this
>The historical section will actually be about the Empire Total War DLC being ported to PCNaruhodo
>>548738612how many swords are talking about?
>>548755132yeah that was an option, they never declared war on me. I had a cult set up to teleport there and I mopped them up just in time to teleport to krok gar. Better than having them in the rear to potentially be a problem in the future, and Teclis should be long dead since he’s the first enemy you should target. Once you conquer not!Anartica, you’re in a great position. No threats from the south or east, oceans between you and any northern threats, you can conquer either continent, though the victory conditions lead you towards kugath. It’s a very comfy starting area with a lot of options, but kairos can use his cults to go literally anywhere so you could always abandon the south
Big whoop. I bring the end times every time I try to play Karl Franz. What's the big deal?
>>548755945based
>>548755945Don't kill the hype bro.We want people buying Nagash, it'll kick up more funding for TW40K.
>yfw they reveal Total War Warhammer 3: The End Times Edition and expect people to pay $70 for a brand new campaign that comes with a DLC expansion, delists vanilla WH3 and makes people buy the new version for $45 as a "discount"
