When do we cum?

from CA's website:
>the free End Times Update, a transformative new addition to Immortal Empires inspired by pivotal chapters from the lore. Expect a revamped campaign experience; cataclysmic events, apocalyptic scenarios, and all new campaign customisation options.
I could see this being as minimal as more endgame crises, the old chaos invasion mechanic with some cosmetic changes to the map, and maybe a few more options like the toggled ass ladders and minor faction potential. Could also be pretty in-depth, robust endgame crises, campaign victory customization, picking regions/factions to get nuked from turn 1, roaming armies hostile to non-chaos/undead factions, settlements razed by certain factions never again being colonizable, gradual reduction in income or public order, etc
>And to crown this update, a new Legendary Lord will rise, ready to leave their mark on the cataclysm to come.
Seems to confirm a free LL
Am I misremembering or did CA claim this would not be the final DLC? Can we please finally get Egrimm?

It is literally in the announcement they said it was not the last DLC. Also in the FAQ. Also they announced later that Neferata is the FLC LL and they cancelled her DLC and replaced it with Cathay as seen here: https://community.creative-assembly.com/total-war/total-war-warhammer/blogs/92-total-war-thank-you-for-your-support-in-2025?referrer=grok.com


>Can we please finally get Egrimm?
Still coming apparently. Even confirmed in the ToT release FAQ.
>>
Man Archaon's campaign is so easy it feels like cheating. 3 Dark fortresses tucked into super safe edge of map in your first 5 turns and all your neighbors start off sucking your dick, and then almost all the dark fortresses in norsca can be yoinked with an autoresolve since it instantly vassalizes the holding faction when you take it.
>>
>>553072615
Bro where you been the last few weeks?

>Looking forward, we have some development changes to make you aware of. The first is that Neferata – Nagash’s Mortarch of Blood – will become our free Legendary Lord coming alongside Patch 8.0 aka The End Times Update. We had originally planned for her to be the first character in our new ‘smaller’ content packs – which we’re naming Character Packs – but after some lengthy consideration, it just makes thematic sense that she and a Vampire Counts Update arrive alongside The Great Necromancer.

>So, who’s going to take her place for our first Character Pack? We’re always keen to explore more of the unknown in the Warhammer world-that-was, so we’re venturing back to Grand Cathay with a thematic twist with a fearsome DLC that will come roaring in to claw back that space left byNeferata- plus an assortment of lore-inspired content. What’s also different about this pack is that it’s smaller than our normal single pack. We’re trying to get more content out that doesn’t necessarily have a place to build a giant faction around. The pricing for the pack will match the value of the content in it. While this is an experiment for us, we do think the value of the content is there so there’s a reason for us to do it. However, expect it to be less than our normal pack price of £7.49 / $8.99. You’ll hear more from the team about this new pack in late January 2026.

Tzeentch are the last faction you want to get into a ranged dick measuring contest with. Bind them up in melee or cheese them.

>>553084534
hard to say without a replay
hard counter for tzeentch is flanking their horrors and flamers with cavalry or crows but you only have one unit of lancers
basically your only responsibility against tzeentch is shutting down their ranged or wasting their ammo

It's hard to have melee guys engage the right targets, enemy armies just seem to love spreading out
>>
>>553084534
Looking at your army the vast majority of your units are low tier ranged troops, which just doesn't work against Blue Horror spam
Blue Horrors have an absurd damage output because they have 160 models and really high damage missiles for the number of models in their unit
Most ranged units have around 90 models, Blue Horrors have almost twice that
Compare them to Skavenslave Slingers, for example. Not only do Blue Horrors have 20 more models than the Skavenslaves, the damage on each of their projectiles is literally twice as high as the Skavenslaves. Their projectiles deal damage similar to an archer, but their numbers mean one unit of Blue Horrors is roughly equal to two units of any other low tier ranged infantry
Then add in their barrier, which means your initial volleys don't do any damage to them while their initial volleys do full damage to you. This means that your troops are losing models and their troops aren't, so the second volley and every volley after that is even more in their favour
The one saving grace is that Blue Horrors have very little ammo, but that doesn't matter if they can kill your army in four volleys

Reiklands steam reserves are at all-time low. Middenland was planning to sell steam to Miao Ying for Cathayan kokus instead of Empire-mandated crowns. Reikland was shaking in their boots since crown-mandated steam trade artificially increases their crown's demand so much that their economy would crash overnight if people started trading steam for other currencies. Hence they whipped up an excuse to kidnap Middenland's Elector Count to threaten them (they stopped enforcing warpstone snuff smuggling through Middenland ONLY, then "had to defend themselves" because smuggling through Middenland started to increase)
>>
>>553085832
>What would work
Like anon said, rush those niggas. Jade Warriors are decent counters because of their shields and armour, Jade Lancers are great if you can afford them and micro them well, Crowmen are great for flanking them after they start focus firing other units but will drop like flies if you let them get shot. I'd probably suggest adding more Jade Warriors to your army. It looks like you're playing Zhao Ming so you should have more melee troops in your army anyway. If you can get some Ogres in your army, they'd be great here.
>>
>>553085979
zhao ming has dragons breath and wall of wind and fire which are both good at hurting ranged units like horrors
typically if a legendary lord has magic invest into that first
army buffs, particularly buffs for ranged units with cathay, are very strong but they're only enhancing what you already have not opening up new options during a fight like magic does
>>

Aggressively push with lots of Jade Warriors. Have one slightly in front of the frontline to be focus of their Blue Horrors, casting Jade Shield on him just before he gets shot. He (and the rest) should make it to melee with minimal casualties. Use your archers to focus those ranged units that manage retreat: with most tied in melee, you can easily 3v1 most of them with minimal casualties. Also remember that Horrors have low armor-piercing but high damage: peasants are BAD against them, unshielded crossbows are much better and shielded ones are literally 2x better than that (shield blocks half the shots). Early on they're going to lay out the hurt though.

Cavalry and Onyx Crowmen can work as well, but require specialized buildings.
>>
>>553086597
I honestly just kind of dismissed the shield version since they should be sitting back anyway... but I guess it does make them better vs other ranged units huh
>>
>>553086169
I bet the skaven are behind this.
>>
>>553086405
Fire Wall is one of the best cost-to-damage spells in game (however you cant cast it in dragon form). Its also really low investment. Imo by far the best use of points for Zhao is having the Wall of Wind & Fire, then going red/yellow line depending on your preferences.

Also the +8 MA/MD redline skill is a lot stronger than it seems. If you pit two Jade warriors against eachother, one with +8MA/MD and one without, they'll have 43% and 27% chance to hit eachother: the unskilled one will be eating over 50%(!!) more hits.

Ulthuan and Naggarond: the supposed world police is a terrorist state ruled by that demented tyrant chaos worshipper Malekith going out kidnapping other faction leaders and sending out his witch elves and executioners to murder the other races and even their own.

The Empire of Sigmar is flooded with Arabs and Nehekharans because Karl Franz is a bleeding heart libcuck faggot who insists we should have open borders. Now the empire has vampire corruption everywhere and people have the audacity to make Vlad an elector count.

Its just the result of lots of short-term decisions by previous Elector Counts over multiple decades. Patching up is requiring ever more drastical actions to prevent the ship from sinking. While I think Karl Franz is son of whores and tumultous burgeomeisters, he is merely trying to keep the Empire afloat. It may be drastic but with so much baggage it was the only option. And him despite being a statesman who gets things done (for better or worse, fuck window tariffs), I dont believe this mess that's been brewing up since 2460 IC can be fixed. Reikland will flounder for a couple decades more due to sheer inertia alone, but there's no doubt End Times are coming. Hell, Slaaneshi cultists are already openly parading through the streets.

Here they are in a nutshell:
- Lord Magistrate: crazy buffs, but bad in melee, requires lots of investment to be useful. Pair with a spellcaster hero.
- Dragon-blooded: surprisingly bad in melee despite being a hybrid lord. Lots of standing around like you said. Thank god Wall of Wind & Fire is so efficient.
- Celestial General: Your THE beatstick lord. Can get higher melee stats than Archaon the Everchosen. Pair with a spellcaster hero for best results.
- Dragons (Miao, Yuan, Zhao): dragon form has hitbox issues. It struggles to hit infantry. Somewhat better against large targets. I struggle to find good use for them. I usually focus on red line and use them to catch cavalry/fliers/artillery (or in Tzeentchs case flamers) since they usually have low stats or drop them into enemy mainline and turn into human form -> punish the blob with Fire Wall. They are also handy in attacking units on the walls in sieges: meleeing ranged causes them to fall back 90% of the time, so your infantry can close in without being shot to shit.

>>
>>553091037
Generally yeah. First province typically hits highest tiers first so thats where you recruit from. Pretty much anything else is economy. You also might want to avoid upgrading economy settlements to t3 after first few provinces, its somewhat of a trap: if your economic building nets you 100 more gold and costs, say, 2000 to upgrade to t3 (and requires another 4000 for the t3 settlement), you're looking at 60 turns for it to pay itself back. After like third province there's generally no way upgrading economic settlement to t3 is worth it before you hit campaign victory (unless there's money making landmark or resource there). This also lets you skip spending money on growth in those provinces since hitting t2 is so easy.

Try to get as much of your units to be recruitable from your home province. After that you should prioritize garrison, income, growth, and lastly hero capacity.

You might get some landmarks or resource buildings which are good if you have the spare room

Short answer: they make trading with you better.
Long answer: trade goods give you and your trade partner more income when in trade agreements, as a consequence more factions want to trade with you for that bonus income.

Here's the cool part. Trade agreements boost relation between factions and potentially prevent wars since declaring war on you would instantly tank reliability and income for them. The better the ta, the more powerful the incentive.

It becomes a powerful diplomacy tool.

Honestly they're the best cheats in the entire game and they'll never be topped no matter how many literal who donutsteel bloatware faction mods OvN, Mixu and Robie release.

You should expect the old engine to be forgotten now.
They're probably extremely afraid to get entangled in the spaghetti code.
It's safe to assume they're ditching any new update to the code on warscape for forever now.
>>
>>553107468
Nigga I played early WoC and beastmen. Don't talk to me about skill with your dark fortresses and your upgradeable troops.
>>
>>553107865
But by making the "new" engine they are updating the old one. They said it's the old engine just with new features.
>>
>>553107694
it's crazy to me that CA balances units for multiplayer in a singleplayer game.
>>
>>553108224
Sure, but the old code is thrown into the trash, they'd rather tinker with the new than with the old one.
>>
>>553108224
>They said it's the old engine just with new features
They did not say that, actually.
>>
>>553108548
I watched some legend videos where he goes over endless shit and somewhere it said it's the old engine.
>>
>>553108548
Usually that's what "new" engines are.
But fear not, they just use a base to build something completely new on top.
Imagine it being like getting an old car and swapping it modern parts, now it can reach speeds unthinkable before.
Also some base parts are also swapped for new ones.
The reasoning for this is that building a completely new engine is a nightmare and takes a long time, over time if they keep updating it and making "new" ones they'll swap everything entirely.
>>
>>553108973
They said the new one is built on top of the old one. This is done for familiarity and ease of use but is very different from "it's the same old piece of shit with shiny new features." The blog post and dev videos have also pointed out quite a few things they've done with warcore that they simply could not do on warscape.

It's fucking amazing. Especially if you like playing anything above the cathayan wall. Sayl, Chorfs, Vilitch, etc.. Having provinces above you to take is so much more comfy. You can also attack Lokhir in the rear.
But since the new regions don't have any LLs it makes it a sorta roll over if you plan on taking those. They recuit mass like LLs do but they lack the scary big boy lord.

Speaking of Gotrek, why in the world can Cathay recruit him and Felix? They never had any adventures there and they have no connection to the faction, unlike everyone else that can recruit them. It would make more sense for the High Elves to get them than Cathay, at least Teclis interacted with them once. Even that would be pushing it, but Cathay makes no sense whatsoever.

Yes. It's actually quite a fun cheat, and it gives you a ton of options. I would recommend getting auto complete Grail Vows, and the Grail Virtues cheat as well on top of her stuff. If you really want to go ham grab the Royal Lake Guard cheat too, but that's only if you want OP units and an OP hero. Also the cheat buffing all of Bretonnias LL traits is nice since they otherwise are pretty weak, which you can find here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2915802076&searchtext=Bretonnia+Lords
>>
>>553126791
That happens regardless, you do realize that right? The entire reason that cheat exists (the one that fixes it) is because the AI breaks with or without the DeepAI cheat in long campaigns. You would know this if you ever played a game to that turn length.

I just realised they took away that one Empire map where it's like a 2x2 box and half of it was taken up by a huge statue of smegma in the middle and the rest was basically all forest which ironically really sucked for the Empire as it's crutch are missile units and artillery who wouldn't be able to see or shoot shit.

You're just coping, they're an alien species and while there will always be degenerates who will attempt to sexualize anything from animals to machinery to bathroom tiles, it's so off the wall and rare that it's not worth addressing whatsoever unless you want to highlight the sheer degeneracy and insanity of such people. Eldar are not meant to be sexualized in 40K any more than Tyranid or Necrons are, they're a deadly alien threat, no more, no less. GW has made this abundantly clear multiple times at this point, and since they're the ones running the setting, that's how it is.

Coves will only make it worse, mate. The Coast economy is the worst in the game even without them and they're the bad sort of ass. Consider the cost it takes to recruit that Captain, its upkeep over many turns as she goes, add in the cost to install the cove and the cost of the building, and you've spent 10k~ to get a piddly sum per turn, with the Captain unable to make a cove for several turns, and then having to pay a huge penalty if you want to make another for another several turns. You could also just make the cove with an army, but the port in the settlement is objectively better than the cove, so it's a useless mechanic

Since mankind first looked up at the skies, he has dreamed of having sex with them. See: the myth of Tithonus.
We have learned, with great sadness, that we cannot fuck the sky. We will not be the peerless hero who deflowers the virgin sun or the lady of the moon. We cannot even make love to the stars.
But we hope that there will be living creatures who dwell in the stars. We hope that we can reach them and find friendship, that our species is not the sole intelligent life, alone in all the heavens, growing ever more maddened by its isolation. No, that we cannot accept. There must be others.
And when we find them, we _will_ have sex with them. Their blood may be acid and they may breathe poison, but we _will_ have sex with them. They may have clawing razors for genitals and limbs that would crush our human frames as easily as we can crush a baby’s skull, but we _will_ have sex with them, and you can count on it.
How, you ask? You are like the early caveman who asked Thog Uklakala "how?" when he said he would fight a saber-toothed tiger and win.
You do not understand what it is to be human, to wish to have sex with the sky and cuddle with the stars, to want to travel to distant worlds and fuck their strange female-analogues, to wish to hunt the giant saber-toothed tiger and walk away, to wish to be the little girl. These are things that we cannot do with our bodies alone.

If we find aliens, we will have sex with them, just as we soar across the sky, just as we travelled to the moon, just as Thog hunted the saber-toothed tiger at the dawn of man.
We _will_ have sex with them, no matter what difficulties we may face along the way. We _will_ have sex with them, because if it comes down to it WE’LL BUILD A MACHINE TO HAVE SEX WITH THEM.

For me, it has 3 big issues.
1st, there is absolutely no ranged advantage in combat. I ran these magelock guns that look super high tech but they have the same range as archers.. yay.. and even the artillery is pathetic. All cav is the same, all support is the same.. it's just 3 unit types and they all do the same fucking shit.
2nd, no morale.. like.. it's a system but it never kicks. Morale is absolutely useless. Every battle is a battle to the absolute death.
3rd, the maps are awful and with no ability to place units before combat begins, there is 0 strategy to the game. It's just.. go send shit in and hope your tomes of magic are better than the enemies. If it hard counters yours, well fuck u.

Having the AI build efficiently, tech efficiently, and create army comps efficiently would increase difficulty, not lessen it. It doesn't matter that it's "random" that Bretonnia, for example, will build nothing but peasants and a knight or two rather than actually focusing on knight heavy armies, it's still garbage that makes them nothing but a pushover every single time.

Bro I can see from the screenshot that you have installed bonus skill points for Lords with what Kairos has active and his stats, amongst other things. Why are cheatfags like this? You are cheating, just be honest about it, and stop pretending you are playing the actual, real game.
>>
>>553154615
How is the AI researching techs that it never uses, having nonsensical lord builds, having a chance at producing the worst armies known to man conducive to difficulty?

Drawing from a cache of standardized but sensible army compositions is going to produce more of a challenge than Skaven throwing stacks with 10 warp grinders at you or running into dark elf armies that dumped all its ranged for shitty cav.

It builds as close to the comp as possible and then swaps the units out when it can? You should, realistically, have comps for each configuration of military buildings. Either way, I don't know what you're really trying to point out here. A half-complete prebuilt comp is still going to be better leagues better than randomly throwing units together.
I mean shit, in my recent Katarin campaign, I ran into multiple Drycha armies that were almost entirely elves for fucks sake.

I run intelpresentmon and it shows a 20MS cpu spike whenever I click my buildings. Wtf is going on

Can anyone direct me to a mod that gives Archaon access to ALL Chaos Mortal and Immortal units, lords, and heroes? I can't seem to find anything that does it all in one, but a few that do it kind of piecemeal but I have no idea if it'll be...stable.

Exalted Bloodthirster beats a lot of LLs and this started with Harkon beating N'kari, and the comment I replied to said to use a Bloodthirster on him
I tested Harkon against a bunch of other LLs, he beat every single undead LL in the game, he beat Yuan Bo and every Chaos LL I threw him against except Skarbrand
Most LL are strong because of abilities and he completely shuts that down. He also gets to attack twice as fast as most LLs because he can shoot from the back of his bat even in melee

It cleary shows both are level 6, not level 50. I don't see any screens of Tamurkhan having all his items equipped. Where is the 90% ward save? I don't see any of his chieftains boosting him.
That's like throwing him against lvl 1 Kholek and crying he beats Kholek. No you absolute shit for brains. You give Kholek 30 vassals and then watch him hit for 3k damage and absolutely annihilate your vamp sissy.

>>
>>553210126
In theory they're typical hammer and anvil but their balance is all out of whack because their hammer is insane while their anvil is weak as fuck. They're probably the most micro-intensive Order faction aside from Welves. They tried to mitigate this by giving peasants a passive buff when near a knight unit but they still get mulched if your cav get bogged down. They're probably the weakest order faction now which is why CA said in their 25th anniversary stuff that they're looking at reworks for Bretonnia, Counts and Coast because those three are the ones who have really fallen behind the rest of the races in Singleplayer even if all three are really strong in multiplayer, this means that we're looking at busted mechanics to compensate for the one-note rosters so as not to upset the MP balance.

MP balance, also they have really good melee stats, noticeably better than sisters of avelorn.

They are kinda wonky in campaign but are basically just so slaanesh can target fliers since all their shit is ground melee.

They'd actually be one of the best units in the game if they did get AP missiles though, low ammo but really strong melee stats.

Slaanesh with ranged options matching range factions is OP as fuck though, see the porn mods. Or alliance/vassal them with Azazel.

They're ackshully buffed quite a bit, much more than VC red line. The only exception is that Hexwraiths get only +2 MA compared to their counts version while the VC red line gives them +8, and even they get other buffs that compensate.

Will it take a long time for them to give us the Tyranids in TW 40k?
>>
>>553222951
Depends if they're doing Warhammer 1 or Warhammer 2 release cycles. Warhammer 1 had a lot of races(WoC, Welves, Beastmen, Norsca, Bretonnia) in just 2 years whereas WH2 only had Tomb Kings and Vampire Coast in the entirety of its long 5 years of content support. We might mostly get additions to the base 4 with maybe a single race a year or we could get up to 2 races a year if they decide racial variety is more important than completely fleshing out the base race rosters first but Tyranids aren't the priority. We already know that CSM are the first race pack and Necrons will surely be after, so at the earliest, if we assume christmas 2026 release date, you're looking at between mid-late 2027 or early 2028 assuming they don't throw a curveball and release a different xeno after CSM and Necrons.

>>
>>553223390
Champions of Chaos provides a ton for all of the Chaos Monogods. That is probably the best bang for your buck.
>>
>>553222951
We basically already know Chaos will be the first new faction released. In the old days I'd say Chaos would be the preorder bonus but since that concept is buried I'd say we'll probably see them within the first 6 months of release.
After that, I'd put Tyranids pretty high on the list for release priority but it really just depends on what format they choose for DLC releases. Like will we just be getting a constant dripfeed of individual faction packs, or larger mini-expansions that are more spaced out? Or will they settle on a roster of 5-6 factions and just spit out unit packs until it's time for 40k2?

Either way I think it's probably safe to bet Tyranids would be roughly 1 year out at the earliest, with a realistic possibility they're pushed off to a prospective sequel that would presumably be 2-3 years out from release.

'nids are one of the only 'antagonist' races (alongside Chaos and Orks) that really qualify as a primary antagonist you can put on the box art and sell a game around, so if they stick with the WH model and release a new game every 2-3 years then they're almost assuredly bound to that.
>>
>>553222951
I'm betting on tyranids being another failed attempt at a horde faction
>>
>>553223390
WoC need CoC for all the marked units and Empire really really benefits from ToD but that's it. Warhammer 3 DLC units have generally been meh, but don't worry! They powercrept the game through mechanics instead!

So whoever is going to be the big bad of the tabletops 11th edition box launch will also be the first big dlc for Total War 40k assuming the game releases this year and GW/CA can sync up releases. Since Nids were the 10th edition big bad it will probably be a bit before we see them unfortunately. I would think Generic Chaos Marines and Dark Eldar will be some of the first factions added since CA only has to reskin base Marines/Eldar and add unique mechanics for them. So probably something like

Entire TWW3 is a testbed or backported features from TW40k, I was saying it for years already.
40k core factions, Marines especially, always had to be Horde factions. They are either fleet based or on a single world. Which is why both Chaos Warrior rework with recruitment worlds happened and so many horde factions in every dlc
Same with siege rework, points to control and buildable towers
Or weirdly high effort Daniel with customizable equipment
And so on
>>553224538
Lmao what? Everything about 40k sounds fantastic so far. It would be slop if you could autoresolve Terra with a single army after 3 turns of travel from Eye of Terror, like you can do with Altdorf here.

You can handwave it as them setting up a planetary governor of their choice or them just taking command until the wars over.

But that starts getting into the issue that space marines also dont usually field armies and when they do its 90% IG. The actual space marines are mostly navy and platoons of troops to meatshield.
But any game developer who made a space marine faction and made it 90% guard would cause an autistic meltdown.

no, it's the food. we're malnourished, eating toxic food, poison, heavy metals, and most of generational dysgenia is caused by those things. sedentarism only affects the individual. Also war kills healthy men and leaves behind weak frail goblins, unless the survivors have 10 children each.

>still need beastmanii and count campaign victory
Who to play? Really feeling like a beastman campaign first.
Khazrak has good faction effects, but his starting location bores me. Morghur seems really suited for long campaign (reduced horde building cost and more replenishment for all armies) and I like his start. Malagor is also really strong with spamming shamans on chariots, but his start is a bit boring to me too. Taurox doesn't really interest me for long campaign, having to either sea lane or go bash up the wastes to maintain momentum could be fun but it feels counter-intuitive to bash up chaos early on while ordertide gets stronger. Could just sea-lane to Cathay and start there?
Alternatively a long VC campaign could be fun to do now and then have a wait until the rework. I got burnt out hard on Manny in the past (cheesing wurrzag waaagh's with zombie blobs and corpse carts). Ghorst is similar but at least there's a decent variety, although my last campaign as him devolved into selling minor settlements for vassalage from high strength factions.

No, not for like two years. They have to declare war on you to war the Vassal.

Eldar are a pseudo-horde with an offmap 'settlement' that handles their recruitment. They haven't explained how Eldar will interact with planets, ie what 'owning' a world will mean for them, but they don't develop an empire directly because all of their infrastructure is tied to their offmap pseudo-settlement.

This tidbit honestly has me worried because they already told us that SM are a horde faction whose fleets serve as their infrastructure, which means on release only Ork and IG will actually be painting the map and that's probably going to get very repetitive to fight against very quickly.

Naval battles will never exist in Total War warhammer, because warhammer naval battles are a separate game

Merge the games then this is stupid af to have a grand strategy game where you remove the most important part: logistics

>>553243737
the "40k would never work" were actually right because this is really silly to have honorable duels on planets and not in space lol

will still be fun as a battle simulator for a short while but the trend of CA dumbing down the grand strategy part is really sad

iirc infernal gateway and pit of shades are practically tailor-made to krump big blobs of heavy armor infantry.

Lazy and cheap. Supposedly gothic armada holds the license, they could buy the license from them of course but that would mean extra work and costs so they'd rather just use the excuse that they dont have the license. For release at least. Then they can sell naval battles as DLC. I have them figured out 100%
>>
I'd rather naval battles were just teleporting to an asteroid and fighting there, or on a deck of a ship. I don't care if it's stupid, I'd rather the dev time was spent on making land battles and the campaigns good instead of a shitty side mode that just distracts from the main game.

They will have naval boardings but I want at least some acknowledgement you dont just randomly appear on planets. you should have to have logistics and a way to move your armies.. it makes zero sense to just randomly arrive at the planets youre attacking
