>>549859839>return to historykeep dreaming
>>549859839Why is there history slop op in my warhammer 40k general? In the past 3 general I don't think I've ever seen a single history post.
Enjoy your game that is optimized for consoles over PC, 40keks! hahahahaha!
>>549860059naval battles confirmed!
>>549860059It's probably going to be Vamp Coast mechanics, with or without fleet battles.
>>549860059Or fleets are like Black Arks and Dragonships.
>Indypride says he played the game in may>Oink oink eat up the slop kiddoshttps://youtu.be/VaYZRC60YfMThis is the dude who literally took a year off because CA fucked up WH3 so badly. The dude who had to hide from Legend of TW because Legend spoke the truth while CA threatened content creators. And now he comes, acting like everything is new and exciting, when it's actually the exact same shit CA did 10 YEARS AGO when Warhammer 1 released.
>>549860059Black Arks copy pasted...
>>549860159I will not surprised if that would be the case.
>>549860160Now say that again without crying
>>549860059I wonder how many battles per planet you have to do. I assume it's just zoom in to a specific battlefield and the planets won't be some long ass campaigns with larger maps like immortal empires.
So apart from nagash and thanquol who will be the other 2 lords of the end times?
so the lego total war leak was fake? :(
>>549860316I knew it'd be fake, but it is actually a good idea - not for a mainline title, but just for a "TW for Kids" shitpost game.
>>549860305Glotkin brothers and Boris (Wolf reskin)
>>549860305Fagquol is never getting in
>>549860305Glotkin and Valten probably.
To the fantasy players that were around in total war 1 got announced. Did history posters doom post about fantasy. Were they finally banished when it released?
Will this game have best girl in it?
>>549860289depends if planets are provinces or settlements. I am willing to bet they are settlements but you have to fight more than one battle to take over (depending on defensive buildings on the planet) So a normal planet will be 1 field battle followed by 1 siege battle to take over, but a fortified world will have 2 field battles, a bridge battle and a siege battle.
>>549860421No, most people were excited because it actually looked fun unlike this dogshit.
just think of the infinite amount of glup shittos that 40k has and how many billions of posts there will be demanding that anon's fav be added in
Apologize.
>>549860421There was a bit of a tug of war but what really killed the histoids was how unbearably smug they were after 3K released and then it's dlc sold terribly and CA stopped supporting it. After that basically no proper history game has been released which is almost 10 years now.
GOOOOOD MORNNIIINGGGG /twg/!!! Who's going to be your first homebrew faction in the army painter?
>>549860421>Total War 1There is no such thing as Total War 1. Did you mean Shogun Total War?
>get total war 40k game>look inside>its just dawn of war
>>549860559Oh god is this gonna happend to us?But its nagash how could they fail?!
>>549860591trans space marines
>>549860534I laughed, and did nothing, but troonslop ack'di apologize for nothing
>>549860160SHUT UP AND BUY NEW PRODUCT WE GET ARMY PAINTER BUT NO CHAOS MARINES UNTIL WARHAMMER 40K2 PREORDER BONUS DLC
>>549860289>taking a planet is a mini campaign of its own with local resources and provinces like DoW that need to be conquered before you can wrest full control>multiple factions can contest a planet and its control points, allowing for three-way campaignsWould be kino but it's probably just one or two battles and you're done.
>>549860559uh... 2019 was not 10 years ago...
>>549860451Total war has made me dread sieges. War is hell.
>>549860534sorry you didn't get to release so we could all laugh at you properly
>>549860421What needs to be understood is that the historical vs fantasy divide is very much an invention of shitposters and not reality. I've been playing TW since Rome 1 and I was excited for TWW1 even after being disappointed by Empire and Rome 2. But the failure of CA to make any good historical games after Attila led to the historical fanbase becoming increasingly hostile, and CA could have just focused on a new engine plus something like Medieval 3, Empire 2, or Shogun 3 at any time. They chose not to. It's all CA, and has nothing to do with Warhammer.
>>549860421I remember some grumbling about lack of factions but overall the then history only playerbase was quite positive about Warhammer 1.
>>549860421Nah, that was the dark age of total war when everyone was still demoralized from rome2 and CA's refusal to address the inherent problems with total war since. The doomposting took off when war2 and eventually 3 were announced because that drove home how they were just interested in the sloppening.
blue spacemariniiblack spacemarinii (DLC)red spacemarinii (DLC)orange spacemarinii (DLC)pink spacemarinii (DLC)yellow spacemarinii (DLC)green spacemarinii (DLC)purple spacemarinii (DLC)gold spacemarinii (DLC)white spacemarinii (DLC)varied, flavourful, and above all...fair.
>>549860643myself and one with a brain predicted this years agothey were always gonna make 40k TW because itd print money, but its entire concept is antithetical to Total War and would just mimic dawn of war
I don't really follow 40k that closely anymore, not for the past like 6 years or so and I keep having to remind myself that this won't be Dawn of War 1 era 40k but instead whatever rebranding they've been going for in recent years, even the ork looks a bit off. Hope we can just mod and headcanon away the unsavory stuff instead of it being very in your face and untouchable.
>>549860731> but it's probably just one or two battles and you're done.I'd like to think it would be something in the middle, because if taking a planet is that fast, we will need a lot of planet hopping.
>>549860783You will play space marines and you will like it.
>>549860289>I wonder how many battles per planet you have to do1 and youll like it
Omg I've seen the trailer and t looks like complete dogshit. A lame DOW clone without the base building. Looks like a mobile game.
Instead of 40k2 ira gonna be 30k and then necromunda
Female custodes when?
>>549860732Well in a month it will be 7 years ago which is close to 10 in my book
>>549860861Your first Imperial Guard Legendary Lord, enjoy!
>>549860946true40kiddies are delusional
>>549860738So shitposting aside, how many 40kfags in here are going to try out Warhammer Fantasy TW now? I already got a 40k army, Haemonculus Covens, but if I didn’t, my love of Chorfs would push me to Iron Hands, or by the time the game is done, Chaos Votann who worship Vashtorr.
I'm upsetShadowheart just walked up on stage, thanked the French and her girlfriend for their support, then called me autistic!wtf?!
>>549860861There is only one race, and that's the human race, chud.
>>549861030She said that award was for you aspiebro, you wonned
>>549860763It's not. Warhammer really did herald the end of CA making history games.
>>549860970Future DLC, snd knowing CA their model will probably suck.
>>549860972fair enough you did say almostjust doesn't feel far away enough to me
>>549861030She's going to be in 40k too anon, no need to be upset.
>>549860160>who had to hide from Legend of TW because Legend spoke the truth Milk makes great Total War videos. Legend can suck me off, dude just cheeses AI, talks shit about Total War, but still plays it daily.Glad he's gone, what a fucking SCHIZO. Dude talks about CA like they're fucking Mossad.
>>549859839Reminder that TW40K 1 is a historical title, it's just history in advance.Thanks for funding it btw, let's pump up the funding even more with Niggash.
>>549861164No, the problem with Warhammer was it being a trilogy meant they stayed on a bad engine for way longer than they should have.But you're a shitposter, and nothing that comes out of your mouth matters.
>>549861020NeverIts less cringe then 40k they wont survive
Volound could have prevented this...
You guys remember when histtroons tried to bankrupt CA because they did a preorder free faction for Warriors of Chaos in Warhammer 1?But then it was totally fine for them to do it in Warhammer 2 and 3?I remember.Histcucks are not worth the financial drain they cause on the company. All they do is buy, negative review, and refund. Fucking parasites.
People laughed at posters claiming they wouldn't do TW 40k because it might compete with DoW by saying TW is completely different but it really is competing with DoW based on that trailer.
Creative Assembly has lost the Mandate of Heaven. /twg/ descends into chaos.
HAHAHAHA @ (You) SAID 40KTW WOULD NEVER HAPPEN
I need more Tau girls
>>549861280Volound is a retarded sperg that should kill himself.
It will look and play more like TW as they release more gameplay videos.
Eldar as a base faction kinda sucks.
>>549861201why are Eldar women such whores?
Now that doomGODS won and 40k is confirmed made for consoletoddlers and wh3 will stay as the king for the next 5 years. What is our next move?
>>549861246>No, the problem with Warhammer was it being a trilogy meant they stayed on a bad engine for way longer than they should have.That has nothing to do with anything though? CA decided to incorporate design elements from Warhammer into their history games which is personally what made me lose interest in them. I think that in this sense Warhammer indirectly caused their history games to fail.
>>549861406same
>we're going to be dealing with taufags AND skavenfags in a single general
>>549861446Everything bad about the historical games that were released during Warhammer's lifecycle can be traced back to Empire and Rome 2. Especially Rome 2.
They will not add the space battle, right?
das a man
>>549861020dependsif they're a reddit secondary (so most of them) they'll buy the game, play 4 hours, and never touch it again until there's a dlc while they discuss the game on reddit in the interim and repeat the process and not blink at anything elseif they're not they might try Fantasy but from the looks of it 40k isn't going to play like Total War at all so they'll have heavy culture shock
>>549860421Warhammer 1 was a minor release and a niche game, it wasn't as big as Attila.There was a minority of fantasy players and they didn't do or say much.Warhammer 2 is when the game became big and fantasy overtook historical.
>>549861443Still playing Pharaoh
>>549861443lotr mod enjoyers will eat good
>>549860451Yeah I'm picturing something like that. From WH3, it seems a comfortable pace is like 1 field battle (to clear an army), 2 or 3 settlement (or field battles) for the minor settlements, and then 1 city map siege for a province. I could see the planets having like a space port/initial battle, one or two field/city battles (to cripple supplies or reinforcements on the final battle), and then one city battle to take the planet over. Then each planet you'd build up the main settlement, and throw like farmlands or artillery batteries on two other slots which would correspond to the field battles, and then you'd defend them in reverse order, with a convincing first battle victory just getting them to fuck off immediately. We don't know if space marines play vastly different to IG/orks/eldar, and we are just speculating off of like 10 seconds of alpha content probably with placeholder UI.
>>549861434It should be necron or maybe tyrannids.
>>549861492Skavenfags are into muscular gay furriesI on the other hand only like femboys
>>549859839How much money do you think CA/Sega are gonna make from Total Warhammer 40k?I'm thinking a bajillion bo billion.
>>549861305>turn based map painting grand strategy game>competitive base building multiplayer RTSthey are competitors if you know nothing about gaming.
>>549860421The Historyfans that couldn't tolerate fantasy at all segregated themselves to /vst/ where they continued to talk and complain the existance of fantasy instead of talking about their own games (which is impossible because all of them have the history games they like and the rest that they hate)
i dont have much optimism about any game that attempts to span multiple planetsive been hurt too many times
>>549861406>>549861476Tau have hooves and giant open orifices in their faces. That's really what you want to fuck?
>>549861505they will add space battles but it will consist of both fleets crash landing on a small planetoid/asteroid and duking it out there before they board their ships again and leave
>>549861246>implying they wont do the same with40k
>>549861654I'm a bit rusty on my CA units of measurement - how many Charlemagnes is one Hyenas?
>>549861671The history /vst/ threads are slow but always more on-topic than this shithole Mr. Liar.
>>549861769Obsessed. You lost. We won.
>>549861757Who is implying that?
>>549861654if they actually nail it and make it good we are speaking in billions. consoles also help with revenue.strategy is to make 34,99 dollar DLC for the biggest ones like tyranids. 8,99 for spacemarine reskins and so on.
>>549861505>"upgrade your fleets" in the marketingit feels like if space battles were actually coming, they'd definitely want to advertise it. I could see them just being auto-resolves like they were in WH1. Goes back to the naval battles question in WH2, would you rather the game had 6/10 naval battles and 6/10 land battles, or 8/10 land battles with no naval battles? Game sounds extremely ambitious already.
>>549861406>>549861645TAU ARE NOT ATTRACTIVE THEY ARE BRAINWASHED ALIENS THAT WANT TO BRAINWASH AND MURDER YOU. THIS IS A CANONICAL TAU FEMALE.
who is the graveyard rose of the 40k setting
>>549861434The problem is that they could've added hobbled Eldar, or just remade Warhammer 1 with hobbled Chaos Marines. 40k 1 is literally the exact same game as Warhammer 1 where every faction will need a complete overhaul in pt2 (for a cheap price of 3 DLCs of course)
>>549861556It is a good game, makes me so sad CA’s greed botched it. I would have loved for a true and proper Bronze Age Total War. I for one, love Mesopotamian Culture, and wanted a full expansion on it.
Ranking of 40k Factions based on how BASED the fans are:1.) Nids2.) Orks3.) Dark Eldar4.) Mechanicus/Knights5.) Eldar6.) Chaos (non-Black Legion Undivided ex. Iron Warriors)7.) Necrons8.) Guard9.) Leftovers (Genestealers, Leagues of Votan, Grey Knights, Deathwatch/Agents)10.) Custom Space Marines11.) Chaos Everything12.) Mainline Space Marines (non-Ultramarines)13.) Tau14.) Ultramarines15.) Xisterz of Battle16.) Space Wolves17.) CustodesThis is the actual list.If you know you know.
>>549861654An absolutely huge number of retards are going to buy the base game play around with Space Marines a bit and then never touch the game again until the standalone sequel that adds Black Templar, Custodes or whatever arrives. Then they'll fool around in a single campaign of that and never touch the again the next "good guy" faction is added.This has been going on since Rome 2.
>>549860763>I've been playing TW since Rome 1Same here. All I wanted was for the confirmation of Neferata, Medieval III and TW40K I'm all smiles today.
Who are the cutest waifus in 40k
>>549861886I know you racists are the most popular Ordo but you don't have to spam the general with your propaganda
To give history some indirect accolades, I Just had a fun battle in TOW as Katarina. Last of the peasant rebels. Their army was 3 mortars I had to neutralize but after that it was a conventional army and early level ice queen versus my early level ice queen, tier 1 units + 3 kossars, leopard and winged hussar. It was actually quite a lot of fun/tense fight without doomstack shit, overpowered magic or unnatural behavior (The leopard aside obviously, but you could treat it as light cavalry and it'd have done the same thing for me). I still enjoy the more high end stuff I had with chorfs, but it showed me you don't need nuke magic or SEM and so on to have fun.>>549860421What's killed engagement is the poorer state of the past few historical games and also just the ridiculous schizo faggotry of people talking to themselves and just pissing over everything with hysterical posting. It's just fucking tiresome. I'm not going to give the stupid nigger doing it here a (You) but you can see it here. It's a bit that has been old for years now and they keep doing it like a fucking reddit faggot who keeps pummeling a joke into the ground.>>549860861The orc honestly made me think Age of Sigmar, but they've had that look since DOW3 and there's still more conventional ones. Assuming mods still exist as they did in the past I am 100% sure there'll be some kind of classicalist effort to make it circa 2004-2014 (I Forget when rowboat came back).
>>549861885To be honest, I would be happy if they do the naval battle in turn base like rogue trader did. That shit is easy, but at least it's not painful with less amount of jank.
>>549861654It depends, there's no shortage of 40k flops, can they release it in a satisfactory state? Probably not, okay, can they spend a year after release delivering quality updates that fix the game and add new stuff? Maybe, in which case yeah sure they'll make money.
>>549861960Kharn and Argel Tal
Raping tau as dark eldar going to be probably the most satisfying thing in the game
If there isn't any Co-op in Total War 40k I'm gonna be super sad.

>>549862178There is an entire army of canonically cute women that want to fuck the Emperor but still have regular sex with men. Sisters of Battle.Most are extremely hot and take pride in their appereance.GW sometimes showcases their older leaders or some schizo penetants when they need to appease Blackrock, but yeah, the army as a whole is canonically waifubait.Pic related is literally their official wiki main image.
>>549861960Sanguinius is the best husband and wife at the same time I'm afraid.
>>549862281more immersive battle banners cheat day 1. this is straight outta mobile
>>549862068if I'm not supposed to hate them why did they make them black?
>>549862220I'm more than a little nervous about the World in Combat style call in supports. It's one thing if you can just spawn in more troops like WiC, but if your carefully crafted army gets deleted by an orbital laser then you're kind of just fucked.It's a good idea in theory, but it's a poor equivalent to spellcasting - especially if every faction has its equivalent of skaven nukes.
>>549862276Isn't Dawn Of War an RTS, not grand strategy?
>>549862253Man, I wish they leans towards their knights in SPACE gimmick like the questing knight instead obsessing with the fallen.
>>549862062Brother, go full Haemonculus Covens, it’s even better then, as those guys you see in the picture butchering Tau, are former Tau tortured and flesh crafted into new Wracks, just for shits and giggles.
>>549862161Wolf RidersWolf SledsAnd of course the gigantic Elemental Wolf
>>549862359And the most overrated primarch award goes to... SANGUINIOUS! Your reward? Being one-shotted by Horus.
If they add space battles then they must add navy battles to fantasyYOU HAVE 5 FACTIONS WHOS ENTIER GIMMICK IS ‘’I LOVE SHIPS’’
>>549862386They're unfortunately not knights. That goes to Titan pilots. Space Marines are warrior monks. Dark Angels just have a backstory which includes knights and feudalism.
My greatest fear is that this will turn /twg/ into /d/, full of autistic ERP trannies with fringe fetishes.If you thought skavenfags were bad...
>>549861923Unless you move the dial forward there's not really much you can do with it that they didn't already do. I tried to look into material for Elam for instance and it's shockingly sparse. Difficult to even make something out of whole cloth. There's more for Hasanlu in the Iranian mountains, some literally who entity. I do really wish we had gotten an Iron age campaign to round it out because the 8th century mimics the bronze age collapse in terms of an external threat (Scythians/Cimmerians) but you end up with a much more enjoyable roster selection for everyone. Even for Babylon with Neo-Babylonia it's really hard. >>549862007I always wondered why you (CA) didn't just come up with some little mini game like mechanic for naval combat.>>549862068I found them obnoxious for trying to be flea market grey knights. There is something unfathomably infuriating at the idea of their bullshit pilpul with Fenris letting them access the warp without taint. It's suggesting their iceball shithole is able to access the warp more purely than holy fucking terra. And vikings just attract this kind of self-aggrandizing that sets your teeth on edge. And >>549862270
>>549861930Wtf? Women are based now?
>>549862326I don't play nids. I play Mechanicus and Necrons.Every Nid player/model buyer I've seen has been cool as fuck and non-autistic.They just like their models like their favorite dog or something. There is almost zero autism behind it.>I'm gonna use this monster because it is coolvs.>THIS ULTRAMARINE IS THE SON OF GUILLIMINIUIS AND I ROLL WITH 3 ULTRAMARINIUS DICE BLAH BLAH BLAH CODEX BLAH CODEX BLAH
>>549862360It may still look like minimalistic shit but it will be something different at release, those are definitely placeholders.
>>549862367It's kinda unavoidable because there is literal spellcasting even in 40k with Eldar and few other factions
>>549862473ratposters and elfposters already did that
>>549862341>There is an entire army of canonically cute women that want to fuck the Emperor bThey don't want to fuck the emperor you degenerate. Their other name is the emperors daughters. >but still have regular sex with men.And women, but mostly each other. >Most are extremely hot and take pride in their appearance.Kind of true
>>549862473Skavenfags are bad. Furries are already the worst community on the internet, and I'm including the board that cannot be named in their number.Taufuckers are no worse than people who want to fuck an Asari.

>>549862608I should have clarified that it was healthy autism and not body odor autism>>549862667I didn't say the faction as a whole. I said their fans. Nids are great enemies. Everyone likes fighting nids and orks. You should thank them for buying models otherwise it would be nothing but Evil Marine vs. Good Marine.
>>549862773I don't disagree, but anything to do with psykers and demons is worse than all of those combined.At least you die at some point.
>>549862713Yes you degen.

>>549862840You realize that Enslavers are xenos right? Those are more dangerous than daemons by a long shot, and a handful of Slougth were potentially behind the Rangdan Xenocides. The shit in the Halo Stars doesn't require the warp to be existentially terrifying.
>>549861930I like the evil crawlies. They are really cool.
>>549863196Aren't Enslavers warp entities? I think that's just a case of Inquisitors not knowing the setting's backstory like we do.
>>549863180Sure whatever >>549863181What's even cooler is that you can canonically summon him to the realspace by sacrificing your champion in a ritual.
>>549863181To clarify I know he's technically the actual embodiment of CHAOS is CHAOTIC and I HATE EVERYTHINGBut God of Fear would canonically work for the guy. You could easily add certain Chaos Marines into his domain.>>549863196Correct.Xenos are way scarrier than the Warp shit. The Emperor just did a good job nerfing them during the Crusade. For average humans? They're nearly impossible to deal with.No.They are actually impossible to deal with. The guys that control entire systems with their minds or age you to dust? You can't deal with that.
Who was this D.VA cosplayer in the previous thread's OP? Got a nutting emergency brewing.
>>549863181The Chaos God of fear is not Malice, the Chaos God of fear is the Raptor God
>>549863196>halo starsMan, if only we have a deathwatch RPG about that or the Jericho Reach.
>>549862276>competing for the same marketThere is some overlap, sure, but neither CA or King Art are going to commit suicide and release even within six months of each other. DoW4 comes out next year, we'll be lucky if TW40k happens in Q3 2027. Additionally, we already know what DoW4 is about, how it works, the unit cap, etc. It's quite literally just Dawn of War 1 with a few systems borrowed from DoW2., but I believe that we know DoW4 has a unit cap of around 200 that you can field at a time. If TW40k doesn't have 5 to 10 times that figure, I'd be startled.
>>549863317I read that story. Was fantastic.Imagine how cool the tabletop model would be if you could summon this UBERdemon. Like a Titan for Chaos.Too kino for GW.
>>549863192>NAOW
>>549863036Well they said there's no "pre-order DLC" but there will be some "pre-order bonus". And 4 playable factions =/ 4 factions in the game. Corsairs would be easy to make from eldar assets. Not to mention the possibility of "Renegade Space Marines" as placeholders for CSM, Eldar corsairs hostile to everyone as Deldar placeholders, Heretical IG as placeholders (regular IG just painted black with chaos heraldry).

called CREATIVE assemblycopie pastes dow and calls it a new gamemany such cases
>>549863495Samus stfu
>>549863495The Dark King technically never will be, he's the new Malal. The Emperor resisted the temptation to become the Dark King, leading to his soul being scattered (one part(s) becoming the Star Child, and another part staying on the Golden Throne but having not a drop of love or humanity left in him just pure utilitarian will). While something evil could still come from the Emperor, it won't be the Dark King - at least not the Dark King that would have originally happened.
>>549859839At some point 40k will be considered a part of British and world history in mainstream school textbooks for its cultural impact.>>549857740They better be putting in effort to at least match the original DOW's acting. Two top down *clicks unit* games in the pipeline, two more opportunities to have many new quotes and lines that could reach mass osmosis once again.
>>549860104
>>549862281>>549862360It will require a 4090 to play at 720p dlss:Performance mode for 30 fps.
Such a shame that 40k is gonna be more boring than WH1 on release. The one faction I do care for is probably never gonna be seen in that game.Space marines, humans, eldar, orks.. I really don't care.. I want cool space aliens.
>>549863379You won't find any other such pictures of her you nutter. She is some community manager of the past that censored lewd mods. Thank allah she is gone now.
Has anyone else pointed out that this looks like a control point? Seems like an odd choice to promote the game with a skirmish map.
Nakai's first battle is fucking bullshit. Ranged units you cant catch in a siege battle. Who dreamed that one up?
>>549863698Nids will 100% be on the first DLC factions. They are insanely popular.

>>549863837Fifth Chaos God, Slaanesh but for Mankind and born out of the Emperor when he got mortally wounded by Horus.It's important because it's the moment where the Emperor could choose absolute power and freedom over humanity, but instead the Emperor willingly chooses to become a skeleton trapped on a golden throne just so his dream of a united humanity can last for another 10k years. It's when you realize that, despite everything, the Emperor is in fact the good guy.

>>549863662is this a mod?Why would those units hold a falx and not have a bare chest, this makes no sense
I think we need a schism. 40k TW players should have their own general, and everybody else has twg. This is already really bad and the game isn't even out yet.
>>549860421not really, I am playing TW since Shogun 1(best TW btw) and I was looking for Warhammers TW as I used to play Warhammer fantasy RPG(the paper one)if anything caused divide(its pretty much artificial) it was fantasy shitposters and shitposters in general trying to cause lcoal version of console warmost history fans played warhammer TW, the dislike of warhammer TW come from its getting worse and buggier(its not that nu tw history titles were great, they were not)
>>549863969No, fuck you.
I know it's a pre alpha but damn everything looks like a phone game in the gameplay screenshots.
>>549863921>Emperor willingly chooses to become a skeleton trapped on a golden throneIs he though? At least from the first book of the scouring, GW will keep that ambiguous.
>>549863969The schism should be>unreleased TW games (40k and Med3)and>released TW games (Shogun 1 to Warhammer 3 to Pharaoh, etc etc)So 40kfags can bicker about a game that isn't even out yet by themselves.
I wish mtg had more of em..>>549863820Thing is.. even if they get released. I'll have to wait like.. 5 years from now? And then I get one faction in a game that might not even be supported for long..
>>549863624The Dark King already exists, he just hasn't fully manifested yet, like how Slaanesh was always there waiting for the Eldar to give birth to it, so was mankind for the Dark King. The Emperor delayed it, and while ten thousand years may seem like forever, time doesn't mean anything to entities that exist outside of it.
>>549863969>this thread is bad because... IT JUST IS OKAY???
Guys I think history and fantasy have to team up, the 40kchuds are bullying us out of our own general already.
>>549864023Why wouldn't you want your own general?
>>549863898seethe troonie
>>549862220yikes that UI is terriblei hope this game stays in the oven another 3 years
>>549863698TW40k is going to be milked for a decade, nids are certainly in and since planets are going to probably be 1 to 3 battles each, you're definitely getting hive fleets as the primary focus instead of genestealer cults (who will definitely make it in but maybe more as an agent or campaign mechanic or as summonable units on specific planets you set them up on). I think you're definitely going to get hive fleets very early on. CSM might get in first but nids will be no later than third, I'd bet money on it. Assuming they can get the game out with a good launch (big assumption) they'll be here in less than a year.
Golgfag campaign any fun? I see ogres get increased mass with the animal resource building. Any large clusters of those I can grab up to make my hungry boys bigger?
>>549864064At least part of the Emperor is suffering eternally on that throne.

>>549864126true, we must forge an unholy alliance to force the 40kiddies out
>>549864095I'm sorry anon. For now, you'll have to stick to Space Marine 2.
Any tips playing Belt?
>>549863969>>549864126agreed
>>549864064The Emperor's Tarot is how they got the idea of putting him on the golden toilet in the first place. If you want to argue that its actually a daemon that did it, sure, but generally no indication has been given to such. He more or less told them to.
yuan shu owns all of 40k aswell
>>549864148I heard mixed reports on Golgyfaggy.Some say he's a fun overpowered Ogre.Others say he's a weird unappealing campaign like the "Changeling"
>>549864257put a lot of wizards in him army so everybody does fuckhuge damage with their spells
>>549864126trvke, just look at how /coopg/ ended up. It never was a particularly good general, but ever since Darktide released it's nigh unusable shithole full of 40ktards and biggest man-children imaginable throwing shit around at each other.They somehow still have no idea how their game works.
>>549864273>The Emperor's TarotIsn't it strange that GW never made one of those to sell to people? I'd own a deck.
>>549864128It‘s all Total War. It will stay Total War.
>>549864148His campaign is stupidly easy but if you're fine with that then yeah it's fun. It's also fun in Coop because your friend can show up on the contracts list allowing you to gift them territory easily.
Which 40k faction would logically win 40k if GW didn't limit them?>Nids>Necrons>ChaosIt really is just between those three, right? IMO it really is just Nids and Necrons. If the Nids can figure out how to deal with the Necrons, they win, otherwise vice versa.We are ignoring GW's stagnation here.
console release it's going to ruin it, they have to make sub system that works on both platformif you can't see it now you're a nigger
Some said this day would never come.What do they say now?
>>549864292He's both
>>549863049Genestealers should have been base roster replacing the Guard desu
So how will you cope when space guns cant reach farther than 160 football fields?
>>549864334It's funny because /coopg/ is so cancerous that /sm2g/ exists just to stay away from it, and it's another 40k game, too.
>>549864148uhh I think you get the entire monster chain recruitable at t3 with that building which is infinitely more valuable than unit mass. Just rush crushers and steamroll every ranged sissy faction ez. But yes his campaign is fun, just remember ogres are not as overwhelmingly strong as they look at first, utilize your speed, and don't neglect gnoblars, as annoying as it is to walk their slow asses to the enemy, they're pretty vital early on. Golgfag is very fun for about 150 turns and then it just gets boring and trying to build an actual empire is not very easy without being able to secure alliances, but you can get very strong before any non-contract AI nations start declaring war on you.
>>549864334Truly the pinnacle of the 41st Millennium.
/vg/ is /v/ containment/vst/ is true TW clay
>>549864429how far is that in cheeseburgers?
>>549864412It won't be worth playing for a decade anyway which is the time it will take them to release 6 dlcs at the rate they're going.
I'm thinking then, that all non-40k players should leave this general in the dust. We can call the new general /otwg/, for Other Total War General
>>549864412dude, this is LITERALLY dawn of war
>>549863927Yeah, 3 chokepoints. Is this your first total war?
>>549864468Shhhhh that doesn't exist.
>>549864420Do you look like this?
>>549864430/sm2g/ is an exception that proves the rule. Honestly I have no idea how the fuck it is so chill. Maybe it's really due to "normies" latching onto it and outnumbering the usual 40kfags?
A Total War game was announced six hours ago and the Total War general is full of people talking about it...where did we go wrong, are we truly doomed?
>>549864334There was relative peace between rock and stone and ratclickers.Shopclickers just throw regular melties against each other and others
>>549864361scalpers thats why, a lot of auxiliary knickknacks they do are limited runs
>>549864398The Tau. They are in the spring of their civilization while everyone else is in their winters. In the medium term, they are destined to win.
>>549864531Where are my waifu ritual posts and thread personalities?
>>549864468/vst/ is for le epic chudpilled hoi4 mods and seething about starsector's modding scene.
>>549864412Anyone else find it funny how every screenshot required an allied battle of Space Marines and Imperial Guard so it doesnt look like a fucking ghost town with the lack of numbers
>>549863624Nah, the Dark King and Malal/Malice can coexist, they represent different spokes on the Eightfold Path. The Dark King and the Great Horned Rat are the ones that overlap.
>>549864519yeah its that, even my normie brought spacemarinemannii game and he has no clue about lore nor does he care.Based of him
>>549864620>explosive barrels right behind sandbagswhat kind of dumb idiot would put those there, really
>>549864398Pretty much every faction except the Tau should win on paper. And I only disqualify the Tau due to low population numbers and inferior FTL, as well as poor Titan doctrine.Everyone else has the firepower to take over the galaxy, they just lack either the will or the organization, or have too many problems all at once.
Valrak was right, you can customise your heraldry. That means the mechanic of spawning in a random region of the galaxy + events based on which factions dominate in other player games may also be real. If CA forgets 90% of the playerbase will he Space Marines until they add Chaos the events will all be SM crusades
Who has the best monster mash faction/army these days? Is it Throgg with the Norsca dlc?
>>549864620Don't forget that the only two scenery props they have so far are barrels and barricades. Every shot has barrels in it.
>>549864689damn malfunctioning servitors
>>549864647>ravenous dissolutionThat's the fucking hive mind, isn't it?
>>549864647>Ravenous DissolutionHorned Rat?>Formless DistortionBelakor>>549864742Hive Mind is Nid specific and more of their collective psyker nature creating a giant mind. Alone, the Nids are without any mind or will at all.
>>549864561the farsight enclave is doing well, the rest are not doing fine, they birthed a chaos god and touched a bunch of things in a necron tomb world
>>549864561The Tau are smaller than the Realm of Ultramar.
>>549864398Necrons have severe debuffs from being too fractious and having several curses that will fuck them over. Nids should win based on sheer numbers. GW keeps describing Chaos as a multiversal force that will instantly conquer the universe if the Golden Throne ever fails, which is silly but that's GW for you
>>549864412Man everything looks so bad there
>>549864398Necrons if they could figure out how to wake everybody up. Nids if they couldn't, but even then Necrons could just nuke every star in the milky way assuring everybody loses. Chaos just gets to fuck off to another galaxy in either case, so in order of likelihood of "winning" it's chaos>necrons>nids. Drukharii are definitely the most comfy with the state of the galaxy and arguably are "winning" on a day-to-day basis, functionally immortal, they're just "not losing" as long as they can keep their souls. Even if the galaxy got wiped by Necron fuckery they'd live a little longer than everyone else, along with the harlequins who probably have their own fuckery to escape endtimes:40k
>>549864712Yes, I think there's one dark elf as well, and a fat skaven.
Is it true Tau look like this?
>>549864647Where are Khakkekk and Kka, the most important Chaos Gods?
>>549864398>pylons and blackstone can suppressed the connection to the warp>use gauss as basic weapon to counter nids>non warp reliant FTL>necrodermis can self repair any damage or transport it to safety>at there are actually as many as humanityNecrons obviously.
>>549864845Lol wut. There's not a single other galaxy out there with a bigger bad?

>>549864921No. It's extremely stupid that they're claiming the Milky Way is the end all be all of the 40k UNIVERSE.
>>549864878I really really hate that star destroyer weapon. Feels like a bad creative decision by GW.
>>549864890No they look like scrotums. The blue balls race.
>>549864890>literal xenos propaganda
>>549864890See:>>549861886>>549862251
>>549864742>Ravenous Dissolution: Such is the hatred that swirls within the Warp that it encompasses all things, and like the dragon of eternity that feasts upon its own tail, this hatred extends even to itself. To expect rational and sane logic from creatures such as these would be foolish, for Chaos was both its name and nature. Yet, in its self-destructive hatred there was no ally to be found, only a new and more unpredictable foe.Pretty clearly Malal/Malice or Belakor>>549864809>Formless Distortion: Even as Daemons manifest as obscene parodies of mortal forms, the true essence of Chaos is endlessly shifting and unknowable, twisting, changing and perverting everything it touches. Some Daemons who crossed the veil into realspace embodied this ceaseless distortion to its fullest extent, shaping themselves into roiling agglomerations of immaterial flesh and bone, for whom death was simply one component of the eternal metamorphosis they would inflict upon the material world.There isn't really a clear candidate for this in 40k, maybe Fabius Bile. In AOS it'd be Morghur.
>>549863968yeah, my own modits mostly vanilla+ with some reskins, balance changes and weird ideas implemented
Reminder
>>549863125god that long bolter looks so awful
>>549864921Yeah, there's old lore that says if the throne fails, the galaxy goes with it, and then the recent final Horus Heresy books say that if Chaos wins, the universe will be taken out. AOS backs this up too.
>the whole internet is hyped by the trailer>Total War "fans" are mad because their favorite IP or time period isn't nextSchizos.
how many years until 40k is worth playing
>>549865025>morghurBut beastmen got retconned from AoS to TOW.
>>549864398Either Necrons due to crazy tech or Nids due to numbers
We all knew its gonna be 40k total war, still I just cba.After last 5y CA should be a bankrupt. For any sane people that have any interest in gaming, this company should be blacklisted. Like GW should for any sane tabletop player.The number of guys stuck in permament stockholm syndrome just because they were tamed via "new shit release" meta/dlc, while the core mechanics are broken since start + older units are trashed or at best forgotten (powercreep both in CA and GW).I dont know how hambrained you need to be to still be intrested and play 40k atm.I used to play warhammer tabletop (ong, de, lizzards in 1996-2008 and 40k with a borrowed armies). The meta changes in both of them (+ absurd new lore) killed both titles years ago. Seriously, try to watch some battlereport. Old world warhammer consist of measuring distance so your enemy cant charge you on his turn, people bring up units so they can park it and dont give victory points to enemy. Its obnoxious metagaming at best and antigaming at worst.Warhammer 40k turned into gallery shootout where every turney look like a lasertag arena. Units hug the wall and after seeing it for first time you seen it all.People that still are 40k fans are some of the worst fandoms in current year, its basicly a shitty fastfood meal that is treated like a 3 star michelin food.I dunno how braindamaged you must be to not see how shitty this project will be.And here comes 40k CA title that will combine worst things from the both worlds. I cannot wait for rushed engine with untreated bugs, maps that probably resemble cities from TWW siges maps, dlc powercreep, multisystem/console release. All with a current GW lore and bad stuff.
>>549864561That would happen in not a fucked-up Galaxy NOT ravaged by the Warp rupturing Realmspace, and by cosmic catastrofies like the Necrons and/or Tyranids thousands times stronger than the Tau Real history is filled with quickly raising powers that were prematurely destroyed by the bad luck of forming in the worst place and in the worst timeframe (Pontus during the Roman age, the Corasmia Sultanate during the Mongol Age)
>>549864978>>549864981
>>549864993They do restrict it by making the dynasty that owns it very autistic about its use, they treat it as a map and scouting tool, and pretty much never use it as a weapon. They defend it from other Necrons who try to break in and use it.
>>549863196>>549863357we should be glad that the Q'orl are being rendered permanently irrelevant by virtue of not being able to really wrap their heads around warp travel and that GW would never bother introducing a second faction of bugmen
>>549865192basado
>>549865126Actually i'm mad because it's going to be the most arcade-y and simplified Total War we've ever had because they've insisted on releasing it on Consoles where it's been proven Grand Strategy universally fails.
>>549864561problem with Tau is they might easily be overrun before they become a big civilization. Due to sheer numbers.
>>549865214It's literally impossible to know that at this point, thanks for confirming my point.
>>549865259Did you not see the UI in the battle gameplay?
>>549865126I'm mad because it looks like shit

>>549865294the placeholder UI in a pre-alpha "gameplay" trailer that had zero correlation to the gameplay shown? yeah I did. There wasn't any buttons there for the orbital bombardments, there wasn't x2 or x3 speed, there wasn't a button to hide the minimap, there was a ton of shit missing and simplified because it's a placeholder for pre-alpha gameplay.

how do they want to do entire galaxy with just those 4 factions? that's just horusless horus heresy
>lasguns are yellow bursts as according to GW's mandateFuck, why was Darktide the only game that got away with making them red lasers as they should be?
>>549865421Did DoW4 show a grand campaign map? No? Then that's the point.
>>549865478La Rata Alada!!!!!1!!
>wake up>40chuds won
>>549865395Literally only rats. It has no other dominion other than the rats and even in AoS where GW try to pretend it's on the same level as the other Chaos gods they all mock it as a shitter
>>549865508WaitI thought they were red?Is it copyright related?
>>549865421>>549865536They should just combine games, TW grand campaign map that loads into a DoW game to resolve battles
>>549865432the resemblance is actually uncanny in retrospect
are there going to be space muslims in 40k total war
So we can assume 40k total war is going to be completely simplified for smooth brains.
>>549865395>The Great Horned Rat is the incarnation of disaster and collapse. His goal is an overthrown cosmos where rodents rule over ruins, without thought or heed for what would follow this despoiling. He is also a deity of Chaos formed from mortal emotion - specifically desperation, as befits this most vile of gods.>The Horned Rat draws strength from the peasant who devours their family rather than starve, the preacher made a lord through prophesying an oncoming disaster, the child who topples their sibling's works out of a need for attention. He is what mortals become in their most despicable moments: self-serving vermin. It is hardly surprising, then, that he is so bound to the fortunes of his Skaven brood, who revel in such deviousness.Also, war without honor, change without hope, excess without joy, decay without rebirth.
>>549863921Oh, cool. I really wonder how people can look at the Emperor and all that he did and say he's bad. Stupid, in parts? Yes. Bad or evil? Definitely not.

>>549865638There won't even be Dwarves in 40K
>>549864192Sadly no.. 37 creatures usually sounds way more than enough but u gotta remember they are across all 5 colors.. and some are very specific shit that doesn't work together.>>549864146>>549864223I dunno.. I've got this gut feeling.. this.. 3 kingdoms feeling with 40k. Sure, I can't prove it or whatever.. but I've got a bad feeling for some reason. But I guess we'll just have to wait and see.>>549864231Ew, no.
>>549865667Yep. The Steam page doesn't even mention Empire management. It's basically gonna be DoW with an overworld map..
>>549865574>>549865508i dont think there was ever a mandate, and red makes more sense because of physics

This is hopium but there should be decent variety early on. How many of us played VC through TW1 and 2 for years battling the same empire garrisons over and over?

>>549865421Dawn of war 4 has no eldar so it's s a no buy
>>549865574>>549865742https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/cvvjq1ua/las-canon-how-the-astra-militarums-indomitable-lasgun-works/>Their depiction has been remarkably consistent: they fire discrete, pale white-yellow bolts, not visually dissimilar to the tracers of the hard-round guns they replaced. You can see that lasguns do have a type of muzzle flare – not a flame like gunpowder weapons, but more a flash of light. More recently, we’ve also started to see them pop up on our TV screens and gaming devices with varying examples of what they look and sound like in action. GW means for them to look like autoguns, and that's reflected in Dawn of War IV and some other stuff. They're not red lasers like literally everybody imagines them to be.
>>549866081that looks so bad
40k is coming after WH3, where everyone generated a Special Resource.What Special Resource will the Tau generate?
>>549865705>3k feeling with 40kunless it's disastrously shitty at launch, or GW starts getting unbearably pissy or feels threatened and ends their contract or whatever the move here for CA is to support the title for a long fucking time, the expectations are crazy high but it looks very ambitious. I think you're just getting mixed up with fantasy, it's getting endtimes and then probably nothing. TW40k could be a slam dunk and it makes so much sense for CA to throw everything at it.
Just some quick groundwork.Archaon? Protagonist of Warhammer. Abaddon? Failure and embarrassment of Warhammer.Don't go conflating Fantasy Chaos chads with 40kiddie chaos children
>>549866081thats not a mandate, they were red in as recently as sm2
>>549866081It's fucking dumb is what it is. They were red bolts in video games and OFFICIAL VIDEOS for years.

>>549866137cocksleeves
>>549866127i wouldn't care if it was just one game, but it's literally mandated by games workshopwhich means if someone wants to make a Battlefront 40k game in the future, it's gonna look like this
>>549865813I didn't have high hopes, and ofc we don't have the game yet but I really feel a lil bummed out about no tyranids.>>549866142Yeah well.. as I said, we just have to see. Maybe my gut feeling is wrong, maybe it's gonna be amazing and a super hit.. but for now I just can't shake this feeling that they'll fuck it up somehow.

>>549863969I wouldn't mind that
>>549866187Don't worry Three Eyed King I would NEVER make that mistake.
>>549866203Why do they look yellow in the trailer then? This is what they look like in Dawn of War 4
Just woke up. What the FUCK are they cooking over there.
i know nothing about 40k but is it safe to assume taufags are the ratfags of 40k? they're already shitting up this thread
>>549866187And Abaddon's top knot just looked silly.
>>549866187Orks are the wh40k protagonists
Hey I'm the guy that has been leaking stuff here.There's a 5th faction.
>>549866203>>549866207I care not about the color. Yellow, orange, red. My issue is that it's a generic blast/bolt/tracer and not a beam. Considering the beams are what set lasguns apart from every other type of gun in both 40k AND other settings like Star Wars for over 2 decades.
>>549866303Yes but worse
>>549866187they both are bitches with daddy issues
>>549866284how should i know, looks like its just gw saying a shit or people doing whatever
>>549866187>Abaddon? Failure and embarrassment of Warhammer.That's why we like Huron Blackheart.
>>549863969I'm a TW40kChad and it would be cool having our own comfy general. If someone makes the general I'll post in it.
>>54986630340k is so much worse, you have multiple different factions that are as bad as ratfags. Space Marines, IG, Tau and Eldar are all just as bad. Orks are alright..
Tau are here to stay
>>549866081Even in DoW2 where they were more orange colored, they were still beams instead of projectiles. This fucking sucks.
>DoW gets primarchs>tw40k doesn'tyup I'm thinking we lost
>>549866043lmao get fucked fantasoy
>>549866265Daniel bros, it's so over...
>>549866390No, we'll take over this one.
>>549865638Muslims were the main antagonists in Warhammer 40k's predecessor, they were replaced with Chaos
>>549866081Why would a laser look like that? Isn't it firing at light speed?
>>549866370Yeah that's what I meant, red beams, not bolts. Even in older books they're described as red beams, the 8th edition video on youtube has red beams, dawn of war 1, 2, darktide, space marine 1 and 2, all have red beams. Then they're gaslighting us into thinking they've always been energy pellets like megaman or star wars.
>40k is announced >collective IQ of the general drops by 30 points.
>>549866203>they were red in as recently as sm2the statement from GW came out 31 Dec 24, after sm2 released

>>549866501so we went into the negatives?
>>549866490That's their MO with the retcon, just like the wraithbone.
>>549865951>release DLCit was pretty shit and game 3 DLC hasn't been a big hit since chorfs.>next DLC this summerthrow everything at game 3 for one last final hurrah with long awaited LL's and a unique campaign which will probably be underwhelming>next historicala png saying "Medieval 3 coming soon">overshadowed by announcement of 40kclearly their big focusAlso CA loves to go radio silent and then saturate with announcements all at once, every DLC for WH went this way>announce DLC coming in two weeks on tuesday newsday>spend a week making videos focusing on the update, one lord, then another, then some units, then a legendary hero, then gameplay, then the other faction's gameplay, etc>on monday let the creators show it off>release
>>549864334>They somehow still have no idea how their game works. Do you know why that is? It's because Fatshark is the worst developer of all time. They have dozens and dozens of potential different interactions with functionally every system in the game, a tremendous technical debt, a total inability to understand their own systems (no joke), absolutely zero documentation, what is true about one thing may not be true about another even if both things may materially appear to be exactly the same. Then on top of that you have to pile circumstance, chance, individual skill, and team composition. All of these things conspire to make Darktide among the most complicated multiplayer games perhaps of all time. It sorely reminds me of late 90's and early 00 RPGs and MMOs where no one knew anything as a rule. What's worse is that Fatshark refuses to ever admit they are at fault, and will actively gas light players. Genuinely their lead designer said a few weeks ago in an interview that the player base doesn't know what they are talking about but at the same time we've have seen Fatshark not know what the fuck they are talking about hundreds of times between VT2 and DT -- and they're the fucking guys who make the game! It's agonizing and if you ask anyone in that thread what their #1 change to either game would be, it'd be taking the IP away from Fatshark and giving it to a developer who isn't retarded. No matter how badly CA have fucked up things, and I've seen it, trust me when I say that Fatshark fucks up worse every single day.
>>549866501It's also being made for consoles.
>>549866501can't believe I'm saying this, but we might actually have to split. unironically.
>>549866081I'll make a mod to make them red, i'll also do a lore accurate balance mod
>>549866474this was changed when they realized that muslims making it into space was just too outlandish for anyone to believe
>>549866490There's one or two novels from way back that described them as bolts. Ergo it has been somewhat inconsistent. But it has been consistent since the year 2000, so i don't know why the fuck they arbitrarily choose one over the other.
Will there be Space Jews in TW: 40k?
>>549866554Wait what did they do to wraithbone?
>>549866501>>549866591I still don't see what's wrong with the thread.
>>549866490well it would still be a bolt because you eventually turn the beam off and the particles would stop emitting, i dont know if theyre trying to differentiate from volkites, because thats beam of death
>>549866637I assume the Votann wont be added for many years, if ever
>>549866639it's now just a generic alloy I think
>>54986630340k has like 5 different groups as bad as ratfags
>>549866647well nothing yet, but we're gonna go the way of copeg when it releases
>>549866730it's not grown psychically anymore?
Okay since we're splitting up the thread I'll take the mpfag on the weekends, you can have him the rest of the week, deal?
>40k has a lot more unit variety and spectacle than fantasy>historical is a lot more grounded and relatable than fantasyis there even a point to warhammer fantasy any more?
>>549866549Give it a few days and post it at more active hours. We'll be able to tell if it's going to be cancer posting here by then.
>>549866697technically true but wouldn't be observable to the naked eyet. i play with lasers in real life
>game got announced and it hurt my feefee>Split threadsMan you faggots are really fucking weak in the head, what happened to all that talk about how it would be funny if it wasn't 40k?
>>549866752you still haven't said what is wrong, what is happening, what is the problem?
>no Chaosniggers
Looks good. Just wish we'd have blobs of like 10 marines instead of 5. Five feels kinda lame for the scale. I guess it can just be fixed by doubling unit sizes but still.
>>549866639Picrel
>>549866712If Votann makes it in before Tau, Dark Eldar, or Sisters I will seethe uncontrollably.
>>549866697Volkite is a lasting beam, while a lasgun is a snappy one. You need to hold volkite beams on the target. In a still photo they can look similar but in motion they're vastly different.
>>549865915It's live service game
>>549866781>is there even a point to warhammer fantasy any more?best of both worlds
>>54986648340k has space lasers, not normal lasers.
>you have to see my dogshit posts nonono you CAN'T LEAVE!!!
>>549866730>>549866831Why are they like this?
>>549860421It was not Fantasy vs History divide, the split was more about the style of gameplay.The traditional Total War battles were more like simulation-esque, with the emphasis on positioning, tactics, and timing; with ordered formations and lines of battle.The new style favored more mathematics, modifiers, and abilities. Things were gamified, with more focus on micromanagement and knowledge of the games systems over intuition and reaction. It traded unique elements of the series gameplay to be more in-line with the wider RTS genreCA could have kept the setting historical and still would have lost a lot of players who preferred the older style. Attaching the games to an IP simply allowed them to more easily replace those losses.
>>549866829Whats this from again?
>>549866639So for the entirety the lore existed, bonesingers were psykers that could concentrate and shape psychic energy into wraithbone because that's what wraithbone is; condensed physic energy. But no they decided in 10th edition that they have to that shit out of chemicals and forge it or something now. It's retarded as fuck
>>549866885Then why are you still here?
>TW looks like DOW>DOW looks like TW
>>549866904GW hate the space elves.
Because the thread hasn't split yet, that should be obvious to anyone with above a room temperature IQ.
>>549866904Because that’s just an intern and a random writer and not the actual lore?
>>549866831it's still psychically grown, apparently? what a pointless distinction for them to make, why even bother to "update" lore like this?
>>549866925Trailer for Astartes 2
I'LL HAVE THIS WORLD
>Doomchads?>wonned bigly today
>>549866923This. The fact you have videos of people doing monounit stacks where they show off their Lord's build proves that nothing really matters in current TW mechanics other than min-maxing.
>>549865508Because Darktide was made before James decided it should be so, it got grandfathered in. But even then I still fear that they have to end up conforming when depicting new classes. That or they just never show new classes ever using a lasweapon ever to sidestep the issue.
>someone split the thread pls I can't do it alone because no one would follow me.
>>549866081oh my god it's somehow worse than I expectedhttps://youtu.be/QeCItSg-wmI?si=yfRNvPh1HzCDlaji&t=143"light" my ass. Usain Bolt could outrun those lasgun shots.Fuck me I wish I wasn't so autistic about this but it makes me seethe so much.
>>54986681440k has an enormous fanbase that's more dedicated to the setting than vidya itself, but now that I think about it, this was Warhammer Fantasy Battles general for the last 9 years, so we can take being 40k general for the next decade.
>40k Total War gets announced BY SIGMAR WE'RE DOOMED, RETREAT!
>>549866829What are the chances they used normal or large unit sizes instead of anything bigger? The gameplay showcase was so short.
>>549867050Yeah, they're star wars blasters now.
>>549866829Five is MSU rules, also was the meta for like 4 editions of the game when playing Space Marines, or just about most armies for that matter.

>>549866954They ui for TWW40k looks god awful. I hope it's an early version of it.BFGArmada 2 did that as well, going from a stylish ui to a sterilized new one. Same with DOW3. Nice to see DOW4 not going the same way, honestly gives me hope for it.
>>549866954both games are going to suck dick, dow 2 remaster + elite mod is what's going to be good.

>>549865743>>549865859and it's already starting, lorelet tourists are here>Tallarn are literally notorious for being pals with Eldar
>>549866954The problem is that both games made the same horrible design choice:>Let's make the gameplay UNREADABLE grey mess>Oh now there's an unreadability issue!>Let's fix it by bright huge icons (non-diegetic of course! Flat design of course!)It's like explaining a joke, or explaining a poem, it ruins it.During the gameplay you'll be staring at the icons and bars and interface and you'll just ignore the actual models and animations.
>>549866712They're dwarves, they're getting in early
>>549867081Even in Epic 40k marines were divvied up into squads of 5 and 10, and even the Legions Imperialis in 30k still scales them that way. It's pretty consistent. Remember the power scaling, a company of 100 marines with their armored assets is more powerful than an entire guard regiment consisting of thousands of normal men.
>>549865975is the immortal empires expanded mod ever going to expand naggaroth fully as well? Or is there some kind of limitation there because it's not in the existing box?

>>549867506They are one of the first playable factions in DoW4. They get Mechanicus 2. People are gay for not wanting Skitarii bricks shredding Slugga nigs apart with their radiation guns, and Cataphrons running over faggot Grots.
40troonies having a melty again oh no no no
Where are the rattos and liggers in 40k?
I’m awake.Did anyone see any psykers? I can't imagine they're not in there. Looks like lords/heroes/army abilities for orbital and air support or it's own "class" of magic, and probably troop transport/teleport as summons.UI looks bad, hope I don't have to mod the unit bar along the bottom. Guessing that's for console fags? Better have the option to use the traditional layout.Like that you can change wargear for certain units, just hope that means the launch rosters aren't anemic.>no release dateIt's ogre see you guys in 2027
Total War is for everyone Chuddies!
>>549867662the old ones are all dead in 40k and the tyranids are fleeing from the rats in andromeda
>>549867662Literally everwhere, every single faction is played by insufferable shitposters. /twg/ will crumble under the weight
>>549867506They're going to be TWWH40k as DLC along with IG. They're the Brettonia of the game.
God damn histoid really on meltdown today. You love to see it.
>>549867436They're not doing a trilogy, they're doing one game and milking it forever. CA has learned that they always do rocky launches, they're not doing that again after game 3 tanked TWH's reputation and player retention. And this game is launching with probably a few chapters and an army painter, no need to break up LSM and IG, surely lots will be DLC later thoughbeit.The first DLC will be CSM (with or without daemons), probably the monogod legions and black legion (cool ones like Iron Warriors and Alpha Legion will be later individual DLC), then nids (to bring focus off of chaos), admech and necrons follow (Dark Mechanicus later), then tau, then deldar, then Sisters, then daemons and Imperial Agents, then Votann.
>>549867392IIRC they can expand the map to the right and to the bottom, but not up or left because the leftmost upper corner of the map is 0,0.
>>549867662There are references to rat mutants on necromunda but that's it. Lizardmen as you'd recognise them aren't around. Tau have some variety of lizard people as auxiliaries but GW doesn't actually care about them and prefers to have you use kroot and vespid auxiliaries.
thread splittin'?
>>549867708for now it's only crumbling under the weight of whining
>>549867506AdMech are meant to be a background support faction, but GW thinks they can support a whole army by themselves.I'd be more interested if Mars did something like declare independence, but as is it's giving the office tech support code monkey a corner office.
>>549867631>>549867737This is me.I am you
>>549867773>after game 3 tanked TWH's reputation and player retentionIt didn't, 3 consistently maintains a higher playerbase than 2. Why is this general just delusion after delusion?
>>549867662Lizardmen died of cringe rather than exist in 40k
>>549867662go to tg and suggest 40k skaven they get really mad
>>549867698saw a chaplain hero, so we're for sure getting single entity heroes, librarians and psykers are probably coming, eldar kind of need them and weirdboyz would be sorely missed.
/twg/ is like a Twitch tv chat now, it's moving so fast. We really do need to make a separate general for non-40k discussion.
>>549867773Dark mech don't really work as an independent faction, more likely you'll see some darkmech units (and maybe heroes and lords) for the mortal chaos factions.
>>549867813Yup. We're splitting along Hololive and Nijisanji lines.
>>549867912This. 40k discussion should move to a separate general so /twg/ can discuss games you can actually play right now.

>>549868007Would
Just saw the announcement and I'm very new to the 40k lore.Question: Do Space Marines ever feel bad about what they've done?
Okay has anyone made an autistic analysis video of every unit and action in the trailer yet?
>>549868082Where is your game then? Can you talk about it at all?
>>549868082this post sounds like heresy thoughbeitly
This general has gone to shit.
>>549868007Based, the real Emperor has four arms anyway.
Tau fanart is the only good thing coming out of this
>>549867874Please learn to read for comprehension.
>UGH WE NEED A SEPARATE THREAD 40K IS KILLING TWG!And what? You bitches are gonna keep talking about 40k even if we leave to our own general lmao, just walk it off hype will die off in a couple of weeks
>>549868168They get their daily intake of soilent(corpse juice)They are perfectly happy.
>>549849909"Skaven in 40K" are locked behind glass in the GW headquarters as a contingency for emergencies only.Note how autistic the Skaven fans now. The force multiplier you'd get when you combine that with 40K fans would irreprably damage the community beyond the point of no return.
BETRAYAL!!!!! THE SHILLS KNEW ALL ALONG!
the meme is true isn't it? 40kiddies DEMAND that you're party to their nonsense no matter what
>>549868168>Do Space Marines ever feel bad about what they've done?Why would they give a shit about ruining /twg/?
>click on spacemarinemannii >TRANS RIGHTS IS HUMAN RIGHTSwoah
>>549868168Yes. Space Marines often worry they haven't killed enough xenos, heretics, and mutants to make a difference. They resolve these feelings by killing more xenos, heretics, and mutants.
>>54986832640k is a psychic symbioteit needs to propagate itself
>>549868395Don't they mostly kill innocents tho.
>clicks on spacemarinemannii>HANDGUNNERS!!!
>>549867848they are independent, they do have a corner office
>>549860421>Did history posters doom post about fantasy.Yes, and I joined in with falseflag posts then just as I do now.I miss the guy who would spam "NO SLEEP UNTIL BEASTMEN."
>>549868458No one is innocent. Guilt is only by degrees.
>>549868168Kind of a mixed bag as far as how deep the indoctrination goes. One poignant scene I remember from the Night Lord's trilogy is some space marines doing a parade march on their home world, when a women breaks the cordon and runs at the protagonist sobbing, and she's shot for doing so. After the fact one of the other marines turns to the protagonist and goes "oh, I think I remember her. That was your mother" and the protag feels nothing and is conflicted over feeling nothing. There is some moral nuance here and there, but they're both heavily indoctrinated (both in traditional means and through actual hypnotherapy and gene triggers) and usually are killing objective threats to the stability of the imperium.
>>549868325I'm surprised it was in a playable state back in may
>>549868326Yes, we did warn you tho. At least fantasois were tolerant towards history posters, 40k kiddies are extremely entitled and they will throw tantrums and petty insults if this general doesn't go their way
>>549868458Don't xenos kill mostly innocents too?
>wake up>TW40k is realFantasoibros, xerstorysisters, how do we cope...?
>>549868458an open mind is like a fortress with its gates unbarred and unguarded
The hypocrisy of calling the 40kfags whiny or whatever when you've spent the entire threat demanding they all leave.
>>549868512Yeah can't wait to see these 40k kiddies. For now it's just you bitches bitching.
>>549868168depends on the Black Library writer
holy shit it's like clockwork

>>549868283>>549868337>>549868395>>549868497Thanks guys, really appreciate it.Next question: Do Space Marine players ever feel bad about picking something so generic?
>>549868720Its The End Times™...
>>549868514Xenos are cool tho. Space marines wear diapers.
how did volound react?my assumption is:>totel wah farty kay is billshit!!!! (a short rant)>54:03

>>549868761No, they don't give a shit, it's something they embrace proudly
>>549868510Maybe release is a bit sooner than expected. CA did say they were planning on doing a marketing blitz in spring, showing battles and campaign in depth.
>>549868880Fantasy by a fucking mile, 40kiddies don't like attractive women, there's one single faction for that with Sisters and GW keep making them uglier every time they go near them.

>>549869185Holy shit just reading this makes me want to like 40k just to spite himI hope the next game is total war horus heresy or total war necromunda

We've only seen a glimpse of the actual gameplay but so far I don't think it looks very promising.

>>549869890miss this nigga like you wouldn't believethe war was so much more fun back when he was around
Will probably be NPC daemons on launch, just ported from 3 to give more enemy variety.
>>549869994Thanks, anon.
>>549869185Isn't that the guy who complained about nu-TW's combat being too fast paced?
Looks bad is that really the best CA could do? I do hope they listen to criticism and not just to the bootlickers who will say it's perfect
>>549870024Same. The Ukraine War was fun while he was alive, now it's just depressing.RIP. He didn't fly so good.
I know its very short snippets but the gameplay looked closer to DoW not TW.
>>549870136>DOW looks like TW>TW looks like DOW
>>549865508I stand by the fact that DoW had peak lasguns and everything since have been a downgrade.
40k has no multiplayer campaign, it's only pvp battles like the old games
>>549870182No I’m not just talking about the colours and aesthetics I'm talking about the UI and the way the units were engaging and spread out.
>>549870136It's on fucking consoles what did you expect
>>549869890PRINGLES NOOOOOO DON'T GET ON THAT PLANE

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS TANK DESIGNWHO THE FUCK THOUGHT THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA!????
So, which Eldar flavour do you figure they're going for?

Primaris marines forevermoreGW raped and killed fan animation yet the hordes or slopbeasts cream for more 40k space marines
wellI didn't realise this general was even worse than what Monster Hunter General has becomethis site is dead
>>549870553It's just... A tank?
Fucking hell, playing as Sayl has been an absolute slog. It's enjoyable because I like a challenge, but Norsca and Sayl are pretty gimped. What are they even supposed to be good at? Basically all melee units, none of them are good for fighting any of the races you are surrounded by. Marauder champions get absolute shit on by WoC melee. Two missile units and they both suck shit, crap range and low damage. Dogshit economy and expensive units. No artillery at all. The ONLY really good units are Chimera but they're too expensive to spam and they're only really decent against infantry. Other monsters shit on them. Both flying units are mid and are expensive. Sayl sucks in melee, his mammoth mount is slow and is a missile sponge, his chariot is ok but isn't as fast as cavalry or flying mounts, his spells are mid. If he's not on his mammoth, he's worthless in melee. Is it canon for Norsca to be weak as piss? Kislev hang out in the snow around Chaos and they're really strong.
>>549870619>still crying over Primaris you chuddie grognards are so tiresome
>>549870556Hopefully not masked Eldar. Makes them look like Marvin the Martian, and not in a good way.When I was a DoW baby I didn't know what they looked like underneath the mask, I thought that was just how they looked.
>>549870553Wait 'til you see the Leman Russ tank.
dont worry lads, this post speed will pass as soon as the tourists shot their load
The ork modle count seems fairly big. As long as they haven't neutered the max unit count per army for consoles then big battles still seem probable it's just the space marines with fewer models skewing the impression. Also I noticed some Guard taking cover in battle so cover system confirmed.
>>549870672>but Norsca and Sayl are pretty gimped.
>>549870553>>549870693you negroids wouldn't get itIG mashup tank designs are pure SOVL, one of the best things in the setting

why the fuck would anyone play it over dow40k fanbase isnt big enoughtca be trippin
I just woke up to 40k total war being realFUCK YEAH FUCK FANTASY AND HISTORU KEKSAHJAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
>>549871097Did you watch the trailer? You can clearly customize your chapter. What you should actually be dooming about is that there's no sign of Legendary Lords being present at all. Looks like we might be getting Rome 1 general system instead which for me personally is great.
>>549870553retard
>>549870884It's probably just advisor voice. Would be cool to hear my primaris marines shouting like in my japanese anime

>>549871256The actor they had on stage to announce it has a role in the game, surely as some form of LL.
>>549867496at this point we don't know anything about Med 3, other than CA want to make it more gsg and CK alike which I am not sure is good ideaand of course we don't know any mechanics or basic gameplay systemsif its gonna be Rome 2 medieval edition then I am out
>>549871330There was a fifth faction on launch that helped keep things interesting which they have stated won't happen here.
>>549870884>Portugese - Humanis where
>go watch okoii stream for the reveal>what is this UI>what the fuck is this this looks like dawn of war>doesn't this look like a mobile app?lmao>>549871294It looked like the SM had NPC Guard assistance so it might be that Guard are garrison forces do marines too.
WHEN SISTERS OF BATTLE
>>549871331isn't this the one where your campaign can end on turn 2 if a machination summons an army of bloodthirsters
>>549871397That still doesn't change the fact that 2/4 of the launch factions were unified in Warhammer 1 meaning it isn't unreasonable for the same to happen in Warhammer 40k
>Name your warband, choose its sacred colours, and emblazon its regiments with an array of iconography that strikes fear into the hearts of enemies.>Tailor your faction’s combat philosophy for both campaign and battle, arming them with your own unique fusion of devastating tactical abilities, signature traits, and arcane wargear.They will sell faction / SM Chapter skills and corresponding perks as DLC, won't they, so they will gimp modding so you can't just make Iron Hands day 1
>>549870884>no Ukrainian dub
>>549871404never gonna happen sorry little bro
>>549860421Most left when the general devolved to feet and furfaggot posting
you do level red line skills first right anon?
>>549871460Yeah ignore my tangent there, not even the guy you were talking to just felt like chiming in because it's something I'm still annoyed about.
>>549871196yeah man so niche bro no growth at all
>>549871493Warcore is supposed to go back to preWarscape levels of moddabilitySM2 has normal modding where people can mod in new meshes to create different armor marks, create weapons, classes etc. There are mods to play as Necron even. This is more than TWW1 and TWW2 had, so clearly it's not an issue for GW
Huh, so this will be in the new engine then, so the new engine has been worked on for a while at least.
I’m desperate for a lot of the shit to be placeholder and genuine early alpha content because it looks like a fucking mobile game right now. God I hope making it a console game didn't fuck it for PC.
>>549870884>no high gothic dubDROPPED
>>549871448If you fill out the eyeball then yeah, that can happen.If you keep it right around the middle you'll just get shitstacks of free money and xp thrown at you when it procs.
>>549871605Yeah, what these corpoerations have worked out is that mods don't actually compete with dlc content. Even if a mod does something you are doing in a DLC people will buy the DLC anyway. So the anti modding sentiment you saw in the early 2010s is pretty much entirely gone now. At the moment everyone is just trying to work out how to monetise mods.
>>549871616>God I hope making it a console game didn't fuck it for PC.It did. I agree it looks pretty rough, just a bunch of random flashing shit. As much as I was hyped for this the game looks pretty ass. Basically just a slightly scaled up dawn of war which I didnt like. Also I didnt see any tyranids which is concerning.
>>549871518who the fuck thinks of portuguese women like that, they're just your average iberian woman but with a shittier sounding language
see you guys in 2030 for total war 40k 2
>>549871609>We'll allow modding>But we won't provide the resources required to mod in factions and units and mechanics teehee
>>549870469
see you guys in 2035 for romance of three warhammers
>>549871717Tyranids were obviously going to be DLC or 2nd game shit, fucking SM2 players I swear.
>>549871749>Implying we won't be seeing DLC number 38 for Total warhammer 40k in 2030.
>>549871631latin dub would be kino
>>549871318can they still buy games on steam without jumping through hoops?
>>549871749Sis we already have the whole galaxy from the very start, the main reason they split the game is because the New World was too much for Warhammer 1 to handle and the wastes+cathay were too much for Warhammer 2 and seemingly Ind/Khuresh are too much for Warhammer 3. there will be no game 2 or 3, there will just be a single game that they'll add onto over the span of a decade.
>>549871796Pretty much, the thinking is that if the audience works out how to do it then that is no big loss but doing anything to make that sort of thing easier is a waste of money.
>>549871720>ethpaña>sounding better than anyonebait used to be believable

>>549871616>>549871717I'm hoping console did fuck it all up for PC because I want to be able to play it so I hope it doesn't need more than a 3080
>>549871609Is there an FAQ?Where did you find this?
>>549871046everything suddenly make sense
If you think Tauposting is going to be bad, just wait until Genestealers are confirmed.
>>549871954as long as its like medieval 2 where you can sometimes spawn on impassable terrain and just win because you have archers and they don't
>they had to make it a console game to recoup the losses from HyenasYOU CANT MAKE THIS SHIT UPLMFAOOOOO They had to make it a shitty dawn of war clone instead of actually a big game. Who wants to crowd fund the bannerlord devs into getting a warhammer license at least that one would be fun to play. If we need to scale down the combat size to the point poorfags on console can play it we might as well be able to actually control them in the fight like in mount and blade.

>>549871714Yeah, because modders are good goys actually and will just make room for dlc anyway, by removing mod if dlc releases which provides this same contentAnd then make those dlc required to even use other mods, thus encouraging purchases of dlcsModding community is literally a self sustaining live service system, where dev doesn't even have to do shit and game still gets new content which generates constant attention and thus keeps players obsessed with a game in questionHonestly any dev who still doesn't understand it has to be utterly retarded
>>549871954It will all be generated in house before release so everyone has the same map. It's just a bunch of star systems and a bunch of planets. Why would you not create tools to speed up the creation of what is going to be hundreds of "Nodes" connected to each other to fight on.It's just a bunch of dots lmao.

>>549872071Before we head off for a well-deserved Christmas break, we want to leave you with one last insight on the project. On December 16th, we’ll release a small roundtable with members of the development team. This won’t be a big gameplay deep dive, but an opportunity to share some early insights on the project, and how they’re bringing the setting to life.That update will be the last for this game until Spring. When we’re back, our plan is to kick off our campaign with a bang - starting with an in-depth look at both campaign and battle gameplay. We can’t wait to share what we’ve been working on - it’ll be worth the wait.so pack it up until spring 2026 after the 16th
>>549872284right now it's the usual rioting after a new game is announced ("HAHA I TOLD YOU GET FUCKKKKKED WE'RE SO BACK RAAH" vs "LMAAAOOOOOOO ITS TRASH EAT SHIT IDIOTS HAHAHAHHAHAHA" vs "NOOOOOOOOOO ITS ALL OVER ITS TRASH ITS TRASH CA SUCKS I'M KILLING MYSELF")come back in a few days/weeks
>>549872370Warhammer 3 had 6-8 depending on whether you count Ogres (pre-order) and Daniel (monogods slapped together)
>>549872407The game will launch with a Steam Deck graphical pre-set mode.It was revealed to me in a dream.
>>549872284Come back some time after the 16th because CA are going radio silent till spring from then.
>>549872318>Have to specifically placate the Spess Mehreen (angry) fags within the very first hours of the game announcementlol
>>549871996>>549872372tau obsessing over muh blue man's burden are literally finegenestealers, however, have fetishes baked into their identity, and will become ratfag infestation 2.0 (which is a damn shame, because i love genestealer cults they're really cool)
God CA please post a devlog + gameplay I NEED some hope injected into my veins that it isn't diluted trash and the UI is placeholder
>>549872370I just dont see how they can exclude tyranids the most iconic warhammer faction after humansI wonder if they'll have chaos. Not chaos marines but like demon princes and the blobby boys
>>549872407It shouldn't have a problem since it's going to scale down enough to run on the series s.
>805 postsMAKE A NEW THREAD ALREADY
>>549872556you will get some devs talking about it on the 16th, new REAL content next year in spring>When we’re back, our plan is to kick off our campaign with a bang - starting with an in-depth look at both campaign and battle gameplay. We can’t wait to share what we’ve been working on - it’ll be worth the wait.
>>549872601>run on the series s.LMAO, it'll look like trash then
>>549872556Read the FAQ, it implies that the gameplay from the trailer was on console so we haven't actually seen the PC UI
>>549872274>REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEhow does it feel to have been so catastrophically wrong for so long?
>>549872617We're not even on page 8 shut the fuck up and kill yourself immediately.
>no release date>>549872648Oka that's the UI but if the overall gameplay is neutered for consolebabs I'm gonna scream.
>>549872692MAKE ME
>>549872562>tyranids>the most iconic warhammer faction after humansOi wutz dis git on about ladz?
>>549849346A thing to say about DLCs is that if this game is interested from the start to give us personalization and customization options for create your own armies. I feel like they will divide CSM and SM by each gene-seed line. This can be also done with other factions.Likely First DLCs road mapFirst main factions added :>CSMUndivided Black Legion warbands. CSM, vehicles, daemon engines, cultists horde. Demons will definitely be present but i think they want to "unlock" them so to speak, by first having them with the forces of the Word Bearers, Death Guard etc..>NecronsProbably nothing crazy like C'tan shards units at first>TyranidsThis might arrive first than necrons. Genestealers will be connected to them heavily, but they will be their own main factionFirst subfactions added :>Blood Angels gene-seed lineIf Calgar is here for the Ultramarine gene-seed line, Dante is next>KriegCadia is first, then the shovel fuckers will arrive.>Biel-TanI am betting on them being after Ulthwe>Blood AxesIt just makes sense to have them as the second ork waaghAfter this first part of DLCs, any other WELL KNOWN main faction is possible : Sisters of Battle, Votann, Dark Eldar, Tau, Knight Houses, Mechanicus, Genestealer Cults, Dark Mechanicus, Chaos Knights. For subfactions is 100% likely they will do all SM and CSM gene-seed lines, but they will not bother to place every chapter or warband (a large amount definitely). IG after Cadia and Krieg, is an open question. Cadia has been for so long the face of the guard that it feels like is almost just them. There is a lot of candidates for subfactions of the Guard, but Catachan is the likely third anyway.Future main factions :Eldar Corsairs, Lost and the Damned (traitor guard), Chaos Cults, Eldar Exodites, Eldar Harlequins, Custodes, Inquisition, Rogue Traders.Future sub factions :Tempestuous Scions, Farsight Enclaves, Grey Knights, Deathwatch, Sisters of silence, All SM and CSM gene-seed lines etc..
>>549872274>fantatroon upset he's getting a taste of his own medicine
>total warbig armies, big fights, large scale>total war tranny edition: 40000 hrt doses5 toons "army", 12 maximum armies, xbox series s graphicsyep, into the trash it goes
>>549872274trvke, 40keks malding
>>549872763You are a joke faction that has been outgrown by more serious literature. Dumb orcies
My only hope is that they have a reserve system so you can bring more than 20 units to a battle per army.
>Total War for consoles
>>549872772>genestealers their own factionlol no you'll have a cult/under empire mechanic as Tyranids that gives genestealer recruitment and spawns armies of them but otherwise be a horde faction
>>549872274Trvkeconsole babbu game will never be total war
>>549872892anon pleaseGenestealers will be a separate faction just like every Imperial faction is separate. Genestealer Cults form their own empires even
>fights are small skirmishes>zero large fields, all cluttered mapsPartial War: 40kputting it on console has doomed it as they strip out any complexity or scale
>>549872968I dont think so, genestealers will be like a spy mechanic in rome total war games
>DoW with an overworldkek, this is what they spent multiple years spamming itt..
SO TRUE KING! OMG OMG I AM SO SEEN!Who else agrees!??!1/1!
Eldar colonising planets will be so retarded
think about how dumbed down the army formations will have to be to be played with a controller
>>549872968You're not important. You're not part of the imperium, get used to being a tyranid gimmick
I'm open to having my first impression changed, but right now this frankly looks like a strong contender for the worst Total War release since Arena.
>click on histfags>CHUDMANII>click on fantafags>SOIMANIII>click on 40keks>TRANSMANII
I'm open to having my histsissy butthole gaped by WarhammerGODS
>>549873079remember that the tcaluk made halo wars 2 so it should play pretty similarbefore halo wars 3 was axed, tcaluk was planning on space battles too
>>549873079It's click and drag anon, they have had automatic formations for several games now. Archers get put behind spearmannii automatically.
Warhammer: 40k game but it's peaceful builder sim
>alienate core playerbase for console bab appeal (console sales have always been minimal for real time strategy gams)thanks CA
>>549873079>army formationsThe average total war goycattle already just right clicks on the enemy for the big pile of violence.
>>549873074>12 unit army capWHAT
>>549873139I actually enjoyed Arena a lot but I also enjoyed warthunder, I like grinding
>>549873074Hes right thoughArch is a warhammerfag through and through
Have they even fixed warham3 yet?
>>549873074The ork here looks so fucking bad.
>>549873059>>549873083Anons I beg you. Genestealer Cults are a completely separate army with it's own unit roster and a variety of subfactions. They politically function separately from Nids even if they can ally. They conquer planets and form their own Empires. GW will force CA to make them separate even if CA wouldn't want to. But CA will want to make them separate anyway
>>549873205The placeholder UI had 12 units on screen so therefore it will have a 12 unit cap I guess.
>>549873074Shit I didn't even realise there wasn't any fog of war. Fuck.
>>549873074Doesn't seem wrong on a single point so far. Also how the fuck are campaigns going to work if 50% of the factions in the game are imperium?
>>549873074Does that guardsman center left have a powerfist? I didn't know they could use that..
>>549873331The imperium fights itself as often as they fight xenos
>>549873339they canit's all Eldar tech anyway which humans ripped off. Eldar have chainswords, meltas and power fists too
So I heard the word on the street is we got 40k with smal unit sizes and console targeted specs, somehow making nobody happy.CA really monkey pawed us.
>>549873079This nigga thinks there will be formations LMFAOOOOOOOOOO
>no imperial guardsmen>no cool imperial space marine factions>no dark eldar>no tauthey left all the fun outside for launch
>>549873331>Also how the fuck are campaigns going to work if 50% of the factions in the game are imperium?Most wars going on in the lore are Imperium civil wars and killing separatists. 80% of the game will be killing Imperium/orc controlled settlem- oh sorry, PLANETS. Regardless of who you play as.
>>549871493They didn't gimp modding for Warhammer 3 besides releasing DLCs that had mids like it for ages.
>>549873371Come on now that's complete bullshit.
>>549873424nigger IG is literally right there and Marines are already shown to be customizable.
>>549873458if you count chaos cultists, then he's not wrong
CA asks the daring question of what if total war wasn't so total war>>549873424guard are literally confirmed for launchthey were fighting in the gameplay
>>549873474it's just a skin recolor, mongoloid
>>549873424It's pretty amazing CA have given up something that just screams avoid day one purchase.>>549873458There has always been a group of people into 40k who want to play the imperium as worse than what they fight, it's crazy.
>>549861734>hooves and giant open orifices in their faces
>>549873424Enjoy your 10 years of dripfeed DLC LMAO
the only good warhammer game is dawn of war 2
>>549873392I can't believe Eldar autism doomed a sci-fi galaxy spanning empire to use swords and shields in a world with spaceships and guns
>>549873458While he's exaggerating how common it is, GW literally purposefully leaves room for, and mentions, imperial infighting so people can throw their imperium plastics at each other.>>549873526NTA but loadouts were changing with colours too. It might be that you also customise your faction's specialities and preferred gear.
>>549873501There's no chaos factions in the game yet though? Unless they have cultist troops as non-playable>>549873528I know there's civil conflict in the Empire obviously, you get worlds gone rogue and various types of minor rebellions here and there plus chaos and genestealer cults, but the idea that you'd be fighting other imperium factios as much as xenos seems bonkers.
>>549870553>no sloped armorthis tank wouldn't last a day in WW2, pathetic
>>549873636SMarine 1 is nice as well, but DoW 2 was lightning in a bottle.
>>549873636B-but muh Rogue Trader? Muh fish wife?
>>549873636Really? Have I just fucked myself by buying DoW1 Definitive Edition? But I wanted borderless windowed and Unification..
>>549873654stop spreading this shitt aroundthe more you do the likelier they'll do something about it
>>549872651God, I hate AL slop so damn much.
dont worry 40k fags will leave after a week
>>549873649>It might be that you also customise your faction's specialities and preferred gear.cmon dude, it's CA, they will sell you DLC
>if I make shit up based on 30s of gameplay it becomes a factI thought RTS games were made for high IQ people.
>>549873074>archniggerkill yourself
>>549873642DAoT eldarboos decided to study the blade just like them and thus we are where we are
>>549873693They aren't supposed to last more than a day. Most imperial tanks bar big shit like Shadowswords are created at a rate of thousands ontop of thousands a day.
So how the fuck do the factions work? Do the space marines and imperial guard work together? Do they fight each other? I dont get how multiple human factions will work
>It won't work!It does.>It's not a Total War!True, it's Total War: Warhammer 40,000>But it's competing with Dawn of War 4!I'll be playing both.
>>549873074He's right
>>549873725NTA but i make it a point to comment cream.api goes BRR on every total war DLC article and trailer
>>549873769lmao
>>549873724dow1 is great for single player and campaign, it's a great purchase, dow2 is great for multiplayer with the elite mod
>>549873793>tfw Space Marines are like Chorfs but hobbos are Guardsmen and Marines are ChorfsI'd rage and then cry because I don't want Marines in my Guard regiment..
>>549873769higher IQ people than most other gamersso roughly >70 IQ
>>549873725Fine whatever, but I dont think they care that much it's just easier to use steam and fucking with it is not what any coder is going to bring up
>>549873686>r imperium factios as much as xenos seems bonkers.Like I said, there are a huge portion of these kind of 40k virtue signallers that make the imperium out to be worse than chaos despite a huge portion of the imperium being average dudes and a lot of protagonists in the books just trying to do their best against soul eating demons and orcs with no morals.There's even a little snippet somewhere where a rogue space marine chapter pirates some ships and gets genuinely offended when he's called a traitor to the imperium.
>>549873802SSSLLLUUURRRRPP
>>549873793How the fuck do the factions work? Does Bretonnia work together? Do they just fight each other? I don't get how multiple human factions will work.
Forcing to design it so it also works in consoles is gonna kill this game
So it's fair to assume there will be dlc chapters with LL and you can make your own chapter with custom lord? I wonder if you can oc other races
>>549873394it's an RTS. CA sucks at anything not RTT so there's no need to get your hopes up. it'll just be a shittier DoW.
I think nothing is inherently stopping 40k from working fine. I also think CA is fumbling and ruining the game so it plays better on console.
>>549873941>Does BretonniaDo Bretonnia and Empire work together*
>>549873649>imperial infightingIf that wasnt a thing tabletopfags couldnt play against anyone too many speshhmarine players
>>549873941This is more like Bretonnia and Empire thoughWhich you generally can still fairly easily cooperate as, sure, but the difference is that the first game didn't release with Empire and Bretonnia as two out of four playable factions.
>>549874005It'll have generic generals only like Rome 1. You see Calgar anywhere? Me neither.
>>549873941Imperial guard fighting space marines is going to be the dumbest shit ever I will hate it so much I will have to mod it out. And that's stupid. They did it this way so they can sell dlc of lords and shit but it would make way more sense if they were under one banner but it's easier for them to piecemeal and drip feed it this way.Also why the fuck are there no tyranids in dawn of war 4 OR this game. I just want to play fucking tyranids jesus christ
>>549874072No, but it DID release with Empire and Dwarfs as two out of four factions and both were heavily incentivized to ally with eachother just like Guard and Space Marines.
God please just post another video proving it's still RTT and not just an RTS. I'm begging my you. I was so hyped for this but I can feel the doomer awakening in me. Fucking mobile game looking ass gameplay.
>>549874034It's going to be cool to see dawn of war release at the same time with some actual depth to it and CA to release almost the same game with nothing but units smashing together on a new, console scale.
>>549873793>>549873458>>549874126https://www.reddit.com/r/40kLore/comments/i35e94/the_size_and_span_of_the_imperium_or_why_a/I'm still not sure why people still keep thinking of Imperium as a one big GSG style blob. It's an absurdly decentralized entity which has been consistently described this same since 1st edition to current 10th edition. Imperium is less centralized than "Christendom" in medieval ages. Making Imperium one faction would be like making just Christendom faction for med3Galaxy is a one big FFA where everyone fights each other. Planets can rebel or go to war with each other even without chaos/genestealer/other xenos influence>As warp storms shift, lost worlds continue to be recovered, but the exact number of worlds within the Imperium is not precisely known. Given the immense distances, poor communications, and the volatile nature of the galaxy itself, any attempt at a census would be obsolete before it was finished>Many planets live and die alone, with only the truly great threats commanding the attention of the Adeptus Terra. Worlds are frequently lost to aliens, rebellion or disasters, with news of their destruction sometimes taking centuries to reach Terra. The Imperium’s borders undergo constant change, with new worlds discovered, conquered or colonised and old ones lost.
are they going to milk the IP with 3 different games again? because if so I'll wait for the last game to play it
>>549874248nah we will never see the format for fantasy again, they will just upgrade base 40k
>1 nanosecond after 40k total war is announced, the /twg/ is utterly destroyed and unusable due to 40k postersNow what does that tell you.
The only thing that will save this game is if there's space battles in the overworld too. If it's all shitty dawn of war blob versus blob with 10 units per squad because consoles then we are fucked. A good strategic naval battle section at the core of the game with the dawn of war minigame would be great. Without that I believe this game will sell well but won't be that fun to play. TWH3 had very pretty battles but the strategic part of it was braindead and once you played your save for like 10 hours that was about as much youre getting out of it, just map painting after that.
>>549863837Dan Abnett's Horus Heresy fan fiction.
>>549874248No, tww trilogy caused a stupid amount of issues for them. They will just keep updating this game Paradox style. They are even trying to make TWW into one game right now
no playable gulliman no buy
>>549874294Now you know how it felt when warhammer fantasy was announced.Personally i welcome out new flock of shitposters
no playable horus no buy
make a new thread faggot
Yeah, looks nothing like total war. Casualized slop for 40k tertiaries.
>>549874294That you are a retarded gachashit tranime poster and you should kill yourself
>>549874248>>549874293Yeah it doesn't seem plausible given the dearth of available factions. If they try I'll definitely skip the whole fucking thing.

medieval 3 is going to suck40k will suck even harderI wish I could just turn my brain off for 6 hours until dawnless days releases, but it will probably suck too
>>549874336>>549874248>mfw I bought twh2 but couldnt play the free roam because I didnt buy twh1instantly refunded and pirated after that
It's literally page 8 you retarded shitposters shut the fuck up and kill yourselves immediately.
oh Look who comes 2 Turns ago, i got Squeeks +bonus against infantry and now i'll get +bonus vs large. I fink, i send Skarsnik to the Northern Border and and keeo Gorbad around in the South
>>549873793Marines and guard fight all the timeCan't you newfags at least read some stuff before asking dumb questions
>>549874532I can't wait for my blacked faggot porn mod!Rings of Power was so good sister!
TWW40k will be the worst Total War game CA has ever created.It will also be the most successful.
>>549874602>this nigga still playing warhammer 3keep up
I was going to reinstall warhammer 3 but 83GB of slop? fuck that, I need to buy a 2TB ssd because all games are 100GB nowadays
>>549866187They're both cuckold writer's pets.
How many factions would they have on launch if they didnt waste money on hyenas? my guess is 10
>>549874602How can you play that campaign? That mechanic wheel is so barren..
>>549874602get out fantachud this is a diverse trans friendly 40k general
>no bannersits ogre
>>549874661everyone in the white people factions is white in the mod, the mp stuff already released proves this. who is seething so hard about the mod that they'd make this image
>>549874676Same goes for 40k 10th edition. Worst edition but smooth brains eat it up.
Lol this happened when Warhammer fantasy was announced as well, but you newfags wouldn't know.Never change and all that.
>>549868613>40kek seething xer is called outooooof
Oh yeah, it's Empire time.
there's too much 40k slop nowadays, the IP is going to take a nosedive like marvel did
>>549874796why are you responding to baitno actually this isn't even bait he just took a shit in the water
>>549874609I've watched all the warhammer + shows and they never showed that. Fake news and retconned
I just realized one thing>animated harlequinsyeah fuck it I will preorder
its crazy how much better fantasy is than 40k
>>549874853wdym it's already on the shitter

>>549860159That's 100% what it will be. If CA was going to have space battles, they'd make it quite clear to build up hype.
