Sex with elves
>>553587484No, he fled on a spaceship like the Ligger coward he is. You're thinking of Gor-Rok and that's from a non-canon blog
>>553586919I got you back anon dont worry

>>553588165Oh yeah? Prove it with $100 superchat.
>>553586429Reminder:
Now that he doesn't play Total War anymore. What do you think Legend will change his name to?
>>553587398i hope he brings verminlords
>>553588674
>>553587398Hard to imagine he won't be. He'll probably come with Verminlords and some Stormfiend variants.
>>553587335Nice post reddit :D
Goddamn why's this game so shitty optimization wise? It's one of like 2 games I play that heat my CPU up to 80c.

I'd like skaven more if they had a more cohesive identity tbhdesuToo many moving parts, but I get that that's the point to be fair>fightrats>assassinrats>techrats>magerats>nurgleratsThe tech thing ends up overshadowing the rest very often too

I want to see a male Skink overpowering a huge titted female Kroxigor
>>553590071USED GOODSsquire is a complete WHORE
>>553592505Our hapless guardsman has encountered a randy muscular Eldar. The picture is demonstrating the difference in size between their quadriceps, implying our hapless Guardsman is mere moments away from being loved TENDERLY.
>>553592680Okay now that you've said it I wanna see that too
>>553591409
>>553592847What a poor bastard. Emperor protect his skeleton.
>>553590352Yasmir is the sister (having a lot of lovers in Hag Graef), the brother is Bruglir (engaged to Yasmir but having an affair with corsair).
Evens I play Snikch Odds I play Ikit
>>553594067nice
the only empire faction I've touched in 3 years of playing is balthy and that was was 2 years ago. empsissies are just the npc filler race for the fun races to eat
>>553593220
>>553594174This post sucks because CA agrees with you unironically
>>553594174>Look at me, I'm not like other girls, I don't play (faction) because I obsess over being respected by strangers online instead of playing the game how I want
>>553590071The twist is sorcfu is an autistic virgin and a sub
I played an arbaal campaign, it was ok but honestly the khorne roster and playstyle is pretty boring.what's the most fun chaos faction?
>>553594376damn bro fire be vibin bro

>>553594697apparently it's just bugged? fuck me I guess, wasted skill points and now the keeper of secrets will assrape my whole army. Gotta reload to turn 1, great start game great start.
>>553595103Tammurkan is the most fun Nurgle faction because his identity is to play the least like Nurgle that you canI hate this game
>>553595715It doesn't help that the only other Nurgle LLs are Poogath the nurgling spammer and whodemius of the terrible start position and no unique mechanics.
>>553595839Doesn't he have special plague stuff?
>>553595897He just gets bonuses for having more plagues active but it's really nothing cool or strong.
>>553595623ugh fine it wasn't THAT badstill sucks to know that's a wasted point at the start of the game and knowing CA it won't be fixed for another 5 months
>>553595093
>>553586919He actually said this?
>>553592589I dunno anon, why pay to watch a guy playing total war when you can just play total war?
>>553597602:D
>>553597625No, he never once mentioned politics or his atheism
>>553598237
temple of tal in hochland about to give me access to elk cav as empire, as well as whip units and two-handed axe infantry. finally got a proper engineer's workshop up. currently pushing the vampires out of marienburg's coastline.

i have trouble with the khorne economy
>>553599316Khorne doesn't have an economy.
>>553598814I'm literally that Nurgling.Shit was cash!
>>553599316Blood is your economy
>>553599316Different factions get more or less money from different resultsLike dark elves have insane sacking and wood elves have insane razingKhorne is for battle loot
why can't i occupy this settlement
>>553597625He did sperg about it in the Attila stream somewhere after the midpoint >>553598281 is lying
Welp, cloud's fucked.
>>553599596>>553599786Holy fuck you're one fucking retard
>>553599719That was AI. The last real Legend's actual stream was more than a year ago.
>>553586919what are his politics
>>553597602I only have the CoC one
>>553600108asmongoloid but more centre left and new atheism
>>553600116Keep rollin'
>>553600082It's literally in the OP you fucking nigger faggot
So this is the new plan? Spamming the thread with large posts that say nothing? The /twg/ Discord underempire aren't sending their best.
>>553600268Do it yourself you double nurgling

>>553600532Can't you update it yourself?You're a big guy
someone give me daniel tips, i need the achievement for winning a campaign as him
>>553600749Go full khorne or nurgle and just pile of violence.
>>553600532Update it yourself you triple tranny
I fkn hate this shit..>take last city>remaining AI army forced to attack>it's walled so he can't attack and sieges instead locking my army in place for a turn
>>553600749Use more Khorne stuff. Marauders and Bloodletters hit above their weight class and work until you can get a stable economy/access to Nurgle and higher tier Slaanesh stuffTurn Danny boy into a turbo mortis engine. Use that staff from the survival mode if you want silly fire magic
>>553600532No, I am going to murder YOU if you don't shut the fuck up
Oh boy, a Shitzo Thread!

I'm stinking up Cathay with Poogath and I'm loving it!Also Nurgle Chaos Warriors are peak drip
lizardmen + high elvesim cookingthis shit matches together
>>553600749I found out quickly that you get a lot of Khorne rep just by living, so just blend that with whatever unless you want to fully dedicate to a god.
Sieging with rats is fun
>>553599596What are you talking about bro? are you playing tw off the power grid?
How's Norsca post rework/DLC?
Uh oh melty
beastmen seem weird

what did they mean by this
is skarbrand just aged out by now? arbaal has the teleporting around to have a diverse assortment of fights
>>553604354I don't get the meme
>>553604140I'm gonna put 19 ratling guns into Skarbrand
>>553603271They are as tall as Marines.
>>553598915Just got Middenheim for free, plus all his horribly managed land. gonna use it to produce knights of the white wolf, sadly they won't be in blue but whatever.
What's the idea besides having my guys sit there doing nothing? I'd like to fight stuffI'm gathering souls but only my actual lord can go into portals, so is the idea to just sit here? That's sad if so

The Deithland mod is surprisingly balanced and offers a lot of fun units to fuck around with. Love the cinderwind shit honestly, think that's a great way of making more units viable in melee instead of relying on skill points that give physical resistance/ward save and other boring shit like that.
>>553609982>ch*ats

>>553610271Ah so it's the Chinese who keep buying into Age of Shitmar
It's interesting that humans are the only mammals to fear spiders. This means it's a genetic memory encoded by generations of our ancestors being predated upon by spiders. We were spider food once upon a time. Bound up in silk.

tips for fighting cathay as lizardmen?
>>553614246Group up your pile of violence (lagartos) and then send them against their troops
>>553614246Kroxigor's to break the line and send your Saurus through the gap to kill the missile units which are the real Cathayan win condition
>>553614242
>>553614246Saurus are not what they used to be. Get some horned ones or rippers to shut down their ranged and protect your monsters.
>>553605034Actually, they are barely any taller than a normal human. Their armour includes high heels, and the short ones even get platform shoes to match the rest, so they will seem almost as tall as a firstborn Space Marine. Do remember that Primaris Marines are even taller.
>>553614619What advantage would being cute be for a spider? Doesn't make sense.
>>553614739>Their armour includes high heels>armour... high heels>platform boots>combatokay then
>>553614739>>553615045lewd....
Ku'gath or Tamurkhan
>>553615456Do you want to be pretty strong or OP as fuck?
My local games workshop held a Total War 40k town hall meeting last weekend to discuss how they'll deal with Total War boomers invading their hobby. They brought up some really interesting points. There's a lot of fear in the tabletop community, that's all I have to say. If you have friends in TT, reach out to them.
Your friends should watch out. 40k belongs to us now

>>553604675A guy like 7 years ago paid a ton of money to make multiple Lizardmen x Amazonian doujins
What would your job be in the Adeptus Mechanicus?
>>553616260Oh I know about those. It's a pleasure to serve ;3But idk how this relates to the mod in particular
Should I be trying to run high quality units or cheap ones? I'm playing cathay and I see people talking about sticking with jade warriors despite having access to celestial dragons
>>553616434for cathay in particular jade warriors scale really well into the lategame so you can get a lot of value out of them
>>553616264def lattes
>>553616434In most factions, high tier core units get less buffs than more widely available units of lower tiers. Then there's the fact that most of the time you don't get much extra value out of slightly better core units when you could spend on better special units.
>>553616164what does 9 look like
>>553616264machine therapist / masseuse
>>553610271The entire chinese social structure is WAAC - win at all costs. That, of course, includes cheating. Any chinese who can cheat, but does not, will be ridiculed and harassed until he either starts cheating, or disappears forever. Unsurprisingly, this pan-chinese cultural stance extends to gaming - paying to win, hacking, and wintrading are not only completely normal for chinese people, they are expected. The ability to use those methods is a reflection of a given chink's real life social status, so those that spend and cheat the most are naturally considered leaders and role models by others.Yes, chinese are a lot like skaven.
>>553611374The choice of color seems intentional.
>>553616903I, too, love making shit up
>>553616903Independent fact checker here. Fact check: True.
>>553616264I'm a firm irl believer in the idea that machines sometimes just do whatever they want for no reason and that's only a hop skip and a jump from machine spirits so I like to think I'd be some sort of low ranking adept
>>553616903Just like USA
>>553616836it will look similar to this, it's not ready yet
>>553616264Quality ControlI have above average attention to detail.
>>553614983it's an accident. it needs those big eyes to analyze and calculate the path through the environment..
>>553617135Bruh, there was literally a group of chinks protesting against RMT on the chinese World of Warcraft servers.They ended up having to move their characters to NA servers due to harassment from chinese staff-mandated bot farm owners and boosting groups.
>>553616127that's a lanky ole sis
>>553617692The need for bigger eyes just makes things cuter by default? Evolution is fucked man...
>>553617135He's not wrong though, they cheat at virtually everything and it's considered normal and acceptable. Part of gauging your skill and competence is seeing how well you can cheat the system you're dealing with, it's expected that you will cheat, and cheat well, if you are a competent and intelligent person.
>>553617979Stop referring to yourself as if you were a different person
>>553617979it's much, much worse with indians
>>553618175yes. it's like skaven and beastmen
>>553617750>>553617979it's still a gross overgeneralization, by the same logic you can be saying all americans only care about making money or whatever. Sure, it is a large scale problem on a cultural level but it doesn't mean every last motherfucker is evil
>>553610305A local schizo refers to all mods as cheats. He took a joke a bit too seriously is all.
>>553617906depends.. it can be kinda gross. Some muv luv alt aliens have those eyes. giant squid have huge pale soggy eyes. those spiders just act cute, because they're very analytical and intelligent, and on top of that they're harmless to us.
>>553614739Unlike space marines they are actually human. Space Marines are disgusting mutants.
>>553618175I'm >>553616903 and while I won't disagree, I won't be able to confirm either. I honestly don't remember any situation where I could recognize I was playing with, or against, an indian. Maybe I was just lucky in my game choices.
>>553590071>dating a drukek
>>553618598A cursory inspection of TWW3 Chinese made cheats prove that, in fact, they have no compunction whatsoever about outright cheating in as ridiculous a way as possible. It's insane how many "buff to the moon" mods there are for every character and faction, all made by Chinese. I suppose you could argue they're being more honest than the cheatfags who pretend all the stuff they're using isn't making the game easier, but clearly the Chinese do not care at all about holding back when it comes to cheats. Look at that Tyrion mod posted earlier, it's very typical of the kind of content they create.
>>553591325>mod is moving to steamWhy? I thought GW chased away the coomers of corruption & porn mods previously?
Total war?
>>553616264I'm one of the techpriests tasked with cleaning the Imperial Palace's sewers.
>>553618486Beastmen are not intelligent enough to cheat.
>>553619390bullshit, they spawn from thin air right behind me..
>>553619276You can get pretty much every single pornographic cheat on Steam now, the only ones you can't are very old and haven't been updated for 1-2 years, which is why their creators never moved their content to steam.
>>553618772Scientifically speaking the great white shark is the scariest looking animal in existence. I have used the power of AI to shrink and enlarged the shark's eyes. As you can see, it goes from looking like a fearsome predator to looking like a cute pet. How do you explain that?

As Ostankya do you prefer staying in Naggarond or going back home?

Are there any female Daemon Prince or Azazel mods?
how are Wood Elves like in the Old World mod?
>>553621089big forest
>>553620920Ostinky belongs in Kyislev
whats the lore reason behind Azazel being friendly with these factions
>>553621089Athel Loren actually exists as more than a tiny patch of land next to Bretonnia, it's a huge improvement.
>>553621149ooooooh>>553621423neato, guess that's my first campaign there
>>553621210They are all Human factions, and Humans are far more susceptible to Slaaneshi corruption (and Chaos corruption in general) than any other race.
Id play Old World if it didnt use up 32 gigs of ram
>>553621707Just download more RAM bro.
>>553621707wait it does whatthis... complicates matters
>>553621707they called me retarded for buying 64gb of RAM when it was cheap

Imagine if Nippon was added as a WoC subfaction

what's the funnest dwarf campaign
>>553625213Thorek
going to do my first khorne campaign I think, I've always been intimidated by them. do i go arbaal
>>553625385Doesn't matter khorne is hilariously OP they're all easy mode
>>553625213Define "fun". Are you looking for a challenge or an easy time?
What is your most NUANCED Total War opinion?
>>553621210I guess it is because he is from the Empire so he is "expert at seducing realms of men".
>>553626256I'm gay
>>553625820learning whatever dawi are aboutI assume easy dwarf campaigns result in autoresolving everything past turn 10 so challenging I guess
>>553626256The AI should prioritise focusing on the player.
>>553626256CA are fags
>>553626357forgot pic of me
>>553626361Thorgrim is vanillasThorek is kinda vanillaBelegar is sufferingUngrim is slayermaxxingMalakai is cheesy easy
>>553625467gotcha, the teleporting around with arbaal sounds fun so I'll go him
>>553626569>belegar is sufferingthe other 2 eight peaks heroes are fun, what's different?
>>553626256It's ok for factions to have fun aspects to them, but be lacking in others.To be blunt, monogods are a bit drull in battle, but they have fun campaign mechanics to make up for that. On the opposite side of the spectrum, empire and cathay have boring campaign mechanics, but are fun in battles because they have very nice unit variety. Not every faction needs to be the best at everything, but it does need to have a strength that brings it's playerbase in
>>553626661Belegar has a pretty hard campaign as the upkeep increase for dorf units sucks and you gotta bumrush Karak from further away. Of the karak trio he's probably the hardest. You do get ghost grandpas to make the campaign a bit easier but god forbid you lost a ghost granddad.
>>553626661He has to run a lot farther so he usually needs to siege 8 peaks from an actually competent faction unlike the other two
>>553626256the AI should hone in on the player's provinces from the other side of the map and spawn armies in the province every 5 turns
>>553626580Arbaal is my favorite of the 3 but that's mostly because I like Khorne mortal units better than their daemon units.
91+(plus 4 bugged and unusable) UNIT OPTIONS!PURE DEAMONIC POWAAAAAA! Still pissed about getting locked out of the 4 though
When I think of a statchecker I think of Belegar Ironhammer and his 6000 health, 60 melee attack and 60 melee defence.
>>553627154>morkar>not greenCriminal
>>553627154Demons of Chaos will NEVER get updated cause you people bullied CA over the Daniel thing too hard
>>553626978Sadly arbaal himself is giga trash.
When is the last time a total war game made you smile?
>>553626661He has massive upkeep increase on his units until he retakes Eight Peaks and Dwarf units are on the high side of that already. But if you straight bumrush for that objective you're going to lose your starting territory most likely, so you have to at least wipe out Aranessa and Ikit before you push east which takes a while, and by the time you're done a really strong faction usually has 8 Peaks and you have to move through what is likely hostile territory to even get there, so yeah. By far the toughest Dwarf campaign.
So how would you guys rank skaven clan? Skryre>Eshin>Moulder>Mors=Pestilence>>Rictus?
>>553628556when I looked at some goblins. it made me happy how happy they were. one of them even said "I like me some shootin" or something like that.
>>553627806I like Daniel though...
>>553627806Nigga did you not read?!91+ unit possibilities. Didn't even include heroes so it's more like 95+ And seeing how Danny got slipped every chaos unit in the dlcs, he's only going to get more. I have monogod mechanics without the drawbacks. I'm literally missing some undivided WoC shit, and chosen.Why the FUCK would such a faction EVER need or even desire to be """""updated"""" What could you possibly offer me that I don't have? I know you're in this "update me eternally" mantra, but I could not be happier with what I have.Your roster is NOTHING to mine. And never will be. You are an ant beneath my boot.
Arbaal is literally an A-tier lord in charge of the most powerful faction in the history of Total War.
>>553628830Nice schitzo postI give it a B+
>>553628836He doesn't have spellcasting, he's nothing. If your Lord can't cast spells they're weak, just the way the game works.
>>553628998Is it schitzo if it's real life?Daniel is the real everchosen.
Is nurgle one of those factions where you essentially have to manually fight everything? I'm probably playing them wrong but their health regen is awful at least with trying outTamurkhan
>>553629248Tamurkhan is an absurd combat lord who can solo armies.
After you teleport with arbaal, can you teleport back to where you were or are you stuck in the middle of nowhere and have to rely on global recruitment?
>>553616903>heh we are not so different you and I
Arbaal has an unlimited use explosion that shreds infantry. He can also 1v1 90% of other lords.
>>553629439You can teleport back to your capital but not wherever like with Oxy'sBut relying on global recruitment with Arbaal really isn't that bad with his buffs and you could always take some local territory to build back up wherever you are
>>553628556When I saw it break Legend
>>553629606He really can't since any Lord that can cast spells easily no diffs him.
which chosen do you like the most? im a tzeentch chosen guy
>>553629439You're stuck until you get a new target to teleport toBut you're Khorne so you get really good global recruitment anyway

I've been pleasantly surprised with faction/roster mods. The Hung are great. Takes awhile to get going and playing skirmisher cav only is sick. Attila, but in warhammer. The units actually look scary, too. A serious evil tone is nice from the cartoonishly evil shit that's prevalent in base game.Deithland is very cool as well. Nothing too blatantly overpowered. Cinderwind is an awesome concept and keeps artillery useful once the lines meet.Someone posted the Lost World lizardman mod that i'll check out once i'm done with these other 2. Seems cool, will probably play Mazdamundi to experience it.
>>553630012Froggy did you post in the Cyberpunk general btw?
>>553629763ha ha. It's so funny and creative that you have decided to be wrong on purpose, as a joke. You are the first person ever on this website to come up with that strategy.
No, the only RPG I've been playing recently is Tainted Grail and I barely post anywhere anymore.

Curious what did you post about there that mindbroke them kekAlso saw some Owlcoded posts like>Cyberpunk 2077 has good potential for kino cuckoldry with Johnny Silvethands. It would be great if you could have him take over your body to be your bvll in your own flesh to fuck Panam. I wish CDPR added more options to let him take over. It could have been a unique cuckoldry experience.

Got any Elspeth reskins?
>>553629284I'm asking about faction mechanics for early game not if he's good or not, he's new so obviously he's the best nurgle faction/LL
>>553631648You picked a slowmax infantry blob heavy army that has one of the best unit regen spells in the game.Since you have virtually no ranged units and especially no dedicated ranged units I hope you enjoy manual fights
>>553631746>Since you have virtually no ranged unitsNot him, but that's false. Plague Drones (Death's Heads) do insane ranged damage against large targets incapable of efficiently dodging their shrunken head grenades, one of the best anti-large units in the game (at base unit stats) not unlike Sepulchral Stalkers. And there's only the nurgle Soul Grinder with its mortar for pretty good anti-archer bombardment (especially the RoR that drains ammunition). Lastly, the armor piercing marauder horsemen throwing axes are universally good on any faction that can get them.
Do Kislevites do Snokhachestvo?

>>553610620We're certainly not the only ones. An instinctive aversion to spiders is pretty natural. Our primate ancestors were absolutely not getting eaten by spiders, but the clumsier or more stupid ones probably got bitten by them and ate shit. The ones that stayed away or killed the spider survived.Now snakes meanwhile. Snakes have unironically been in an evolutionary arms race with primates for the past 65 million years and were absolutely eating some monkeys. thanks to that not only are we instinctively better able to spot and identify snakes compared to nearly any other animal, but when we started striking back and killing any snakes we could find, spitting cobras evolved as a specific counter to humans i particular (spraying blinding venom at a distance beyond spear-range which is particularly effective against animals with forward-facing eyes that are vision-dependent like us.)
Giants are definitely one of the units you can recruit in the game Warhammer 3

>>553599316Play Arbaal. Do challenge, wreck up the area for a bit, and then, do a different challenge.
>>553599316Mobile campaigns like that don't have economies. You should be either raiding or sacking or razing and conquering constantly every turn for your income which should grossly outweigh any income penalty you could possible have.

It's fucking awful.You just stack 19 heroes into Valkia, maybe have one stack of chosen and the rest is just throw away armies you keep ramming into whatever there is till you win. It's fucking retarded boring.
>>553644673sounds like you have some pretty advanced brain problems
>>553644962Can't accept the most optimal playstyle?
>>553644673Sounds like a Valkia problem, the other lords are better (besides Archaon but you're just playing to collect all the other WoC).Sigvald/Azazel can quickly sort out their fortresses in Norsca then start on Kislev and use the slaaneshi diplomacy options, Vilitch gets into Cathay fast as fuck, and Festus is basically airdropped solo into the Empire.Its really Archaon that spends all his time beating up Chaos since he's got special confederation rules, even Valkia should be able to start hunting Druchii immediately.
>>553645334There is 0 reason fir any woc lord to ever go after order factions. They don't give you anything. Chaos gives you dark fortresses, order never does so you should never fight order unless u got all your cities.That's why woc is horrible.

>>553655007I'll grant that dwarfs need a whole bunch of resources for their good items but you are wrong about empire heroes. The combination of warrior priests, flying captains and life magic is extremely strong. Many disciplined beast wizards on griffons is very doable with the character saving system.

you can add unit mods mid-campaign right? literally just simply adding a recruitable unit and its ror, nothing more involved than that
>>553660592And what of noble Beaquis?
>>553662084Generally it's fine if it's just adding to the database.
there's literally no reason to ever bring saurus shields over shieldless
>>553658902Skarbrand and Tamurkhan have that. While charging they deal damage to everything they touch and throw it over.That also makes them the 2 strongest melee lords in the game..
Flamethrower units are the coolest thing.
Are globadiers the only specialist grenade throwing units in the game? Miners (Blasting Charges) have grenades too, but that's more of a precursor shock weapon.
>>553662869He's great but Louis is already a powerhouse without him. I only really wanted to mention mounts that make-or-break the character, the exception here being Tamurkhan because his Toad is just THAT strongBeaquis I'd probably put on the next level down alongside Teclis' Arcane Pheonix, Wulfric's Mammoth, Karl's Deathclaw, and the dragons for Malaketh, Imirik, Mannfred, Elspeth, High Elf Archmage (Fire) and Chaos Sorcerer

>>553656516Any of the mounts where the lord can attack from the back while the mount fights in meleeOff the top of my head Harkon, the Sisters of Twilight, Ku'gath, and Grom all get this. There's probably others
>>553663796Oh right yeah. Not sure why I never used grenadiers in my many hours playing Vampire Coast. To be honest every time I play Vamp Coast I just end up stacking Zombie Pirate Gunnery Mob (Handguns). They're so effective, they sponge up plenty of buffs from tech and lords, and very satisfying to use to. I never bother with the rest of the roster beyond a few trophy SEMs here and there.I looked up Cathay and I've never heard of Nan Gau grenadiers. Is this some mandalore effect?

do you ever bring a secondary caster with the high-end wizard lords like slaan or archmages?
>>553664318anything with walls on it
>>553664329Yeah because he shoots during meleeThat's literally my point, he, the sisters, ku'gath, probably some others I don't remember right now, all of them get to shoot while their mount is in melee (yeah I know ku'gath's "mount" is a big chair and it "attacks" when he kicks people but you get my point)
>>553664404I don't see how that is worse than just an open field with nothing in it?

>>553666021>Lots of skirmisher units can fire in meleeThis, and it's always be really strongFiring into melee is on its own absurdly powerful no matter what unit is doing it. Even garbage units get way more value than they otherwise would have if they can fire into melee, this has always been true with this engine of Total WarFiring into melee with a pistol that inflicts Silenced! (which stops the enemy from activating any item, spell, or ability) is overpowered as fuck and makes most lords effectively lose their entire kit until Harkon runs out of ammoSo while >>553666110 is wrong, Harkon basically removes all the enemy's items and skills innately (this isn't unique to Harkon btw, Karanak does this too but better because his Silenced! is an aura that doesn't need ammo)

>>553668607Passives still work, so do army abilities, and of course in an actual battle Harkon can only shoot one guy at a time (which is again why Karanak's version is better)But I think Silenced! is one of the most overpowered effects in the entire game

how the fuck do you beat dark elves as lizardscrossbows just obliterate all my stuff
>>553670996ESL-sama I kneel.
>>553670996Nah Harkon was always a beast even in 2, it's just that his nerfs to Winds for both sides were a lot worse in that game because spells were so OP
Anybody use this? Recommended yeah, nah? I used to play TW2 on VH/N but I haven't played TW3 much, I put in like 20h on release and then stopped playing it.
>>553670996He inflicted Disrupted! in WH2Silenced! didn't exist until WH3
Do I expand south as zhao ming in realm of chaos campaign? Orge kingdoms seem like good guys.
Decided to play a Morocco campaign this time. Immediately took out the berber pirates and started plundering ottoman ships. But my army for most of the campaign is very bad so I concentrated on taking small colonies, on trade and on technology. Finally after being able to field European style armies I decided to besiege Gibraltar.
>>553671579that better not be the mobile versioni won't tolerate phonefags in my twg
>>553669896It's apparently not too uncommon for imperial scholars to explicitly understand calculus.It is also common knowledge among dwarf stonemasons and elven scholars.
>>553670996>there will be mixed gender custodies fighting alongside mixed race sisters of silence and every single sister will have silence guns like luthoreddit and silence auras like that khorne dogthat'd be really cool, it's always heartwarming to see more diversity and inclusivity
The british army prepares to defend Gibraltar.>>553671676No its the PC version.
>>553671953just one cannon please lord give me just one cannon and I can save the world
>>553671228Just play on the preferred difficulty like a normal person, it's ok. Don't try to cope about your skills lacking.
>>553671778but they're retards! they're wicked retarded!
>>553672161yes but you have to forgive them, the elves can't help it
After breaching the wall with artillery the British army refused to stay put and sallied out to meet the Moroccan troops with bayonets.
>>553672328that seems suicidal
>>553672407It might not be I have much more artillery and specialized infantry for sieges. They cause more damage sallying out than staying in the fort.
The Brits fought valiantly but ultimately the charge failed! The brave grenadiers flee as the Moroccans charge into the fort.
I wish that when the chorfs released they reworked the hellcannons and made them able to fight in melee instead of ironically being one of the more vulnerable artillery pieces due to its size
Gibraltar has been conquered! Sultan Ismail smiles as he received the decapitated heads of those British officers that dared to defy him in chests of honey from his victorious new army. He immediately sent out Imams to convert the misled Christians to convince them of the true faith.
...I just wanted peace and happiness for everyone. Don't they know Islam is the religion of peace?! What's with these bloodthirsty Spaniards?
>>553672161Just like real life.
>>553673074what the fuck are you talking about
>>553674496hellcannons are so fucking angry they have to be chained down so they don't go fight in melee
>>553635485i thought relic posters were a relic of the past

As the war against Spain rages on in Iberia. Another Moroccan army set out to conquer Damascus. Deciding to besiege the city the defenders are forced to meet thte Moroccans on the hills next to Damascus.
WH3 - is there some way to make units all move at the same pace like in Three Kingdoms? I've tried locking groups but it doesn't work. Even the full army walk seems to have some things a little faster than others
How do I into Karl Franz, what the fuck is this campaignt. noob that mostly played VC and HE
>>553671228put it on very hard/very hard and set stat bonus to middle like a human being
The Ottomans try to charge up the hills but the artillery and musket barrages keep them at bay.

Why are high elf magefus so obsessed with Oreos?
There are rumours that KingGobbo is preparing a news report for us.He might even discuss topics such as the Cathay DLC and Warhammer 40,000 with us.
>>553677576you're just making up names at this pointi already thought it was silly when you people told me there was a guy named legend of total war, you really think i'm gonna believe king gobbo too?
Back in Iberia General Ramirez decided to lead the Spanish army into Portugal besieging Lisbon. The army that conquered and hold Lisbon to this day is led by the experienced Moroccan general Nikusiyar Farrakhan. Seeing as his army is not as modern and disciplined he decided to stay put and wait for relief forces from Gibraltar led by general Akwal.While general Abdulaziz marches towards Madrid to besiege it and give the new army the time it needs to defeat the Spanish army in battle and then join up with him to take Madrid.
>start ghorst campaign>long victory requires me to take control of the fucking ReiklandThey really need to revisit a lot of these factions and their win conditions.I only just got the short victory and it's like turn 80.>early game has you dealing with Poogath>Greasus will probably aggro you during this time so then you have to kill him>by this point Tamurkhan will have his 1000AP weapon strength unbreakable rapeToad Dragon online and Rapezak hero (80/80+ with AP, regen, unbreakable, etc.) and have subjugated most of the northern mountains, and will summarily aggro you>have to be exceedingly cautious of Chorfs and Imrik and leave standing armies behind in case they decide to aggro you>every single clash with Tamurkhan is an exercise in absolute tedium until you can get the cryptstarhiphop gank squad online (Strigoi on Terrorgheist, Grey magic Vampires, etc.)Is one of the Carsteins a better bet if I'm trying to go for a long victory?
I don't think I'm ever going to complete a campaign with Arbaal, I just wind up teleporting everywhere for 100 turns and never taking settlements
fuck's sake another crash, at this point I'm thinking about going back to WH2

>>553683310Arbaal is strong but super boring compared to Tamurbrap
The Moroccans were defeated at Madrid. The fierce Spanish were too much to handle for the outnumbered and out-dated Moroccan army of Abdulaziz.Hearing of the grave news, Sultan Ismail ordered to regroup in Gibraltar.
>>553676813Karl Franz's campaign is dysfunctional because CA needed to give a couple literal who lords babymode startsThis will never be fixed. Thank you for your purchase!
What's the point of "one large guy who gets shot to death by crossbows" type of unitsTeach me
>>553684509Well, you see, you usually have other units tie up the crossbow units so they don't shoot the other guy.hth
Trying to match the Spanish in naval combat... they have very big boats. Bigger than mine but they're weakened. I'm hoping to capture them.
Karl Franz campaign is kinosorry he isnt a baby mode faceroll campaign like everyone else, pussies
>>553684509If you make it chargeget thisand keep charging constantlyI know right!it will kill things forever
>>553684994He's the most played campaign and spoiled brats like >>553684403 go 'omg too hard please buff!'The average empire player is a sissy.
>>553684509you're supposed to make those charge at the shooters so they stop shooting
>no it's GOOD that this campaign literally doesn't function the way it is supposed to>no it's GOOD that this thing is really unhealthy for the game because I like it
>its the end times>wtf why is the empire beset on all sides?!
Captured two of their most powerful ships!
Empire is easy. Just use unit cheats like I do!
Jesus. They will really keep quiet about 40k until april wont they?
>>553686186No shit? Game devs keep quiet about a game until its closer to release? Fucking wild dude.
>>553686186I'm enjoying the quiet before the storm. We saw how unusable /twg/ became at the mere confirmation of 40k.
>doesnt use deepwar ai>doesnt use less ai cheatingfucking LOLING at you
ch*ats ruin the curated experience of the game and deprive you of the ability to have shared yet unique stories that other players can empathize with. By using ch*ats you are simply depriving yourself of the chance to have a shared connection with the playerbase at large.
>>553686913*farts*
How would 40k even work? Most of the map would be the human empire.
>>553688000Most of the map is also irrelevant. Coincidence?
>>553688000as much as Lustria is mostly lizards
After several years of siege the Spanish try yet again to break free. But this time the odds are against the catholic defenders.
>>553685101KF isn't hard unless you like to larp as a saviour of the empire and keep everyone else alive (which you should)Ostermark, Hochland, and Ostland bite it almost immediately along with Middenland's capital, most of Stirland, and Averland. I have never played a game where Nordland wasn't almost entirely eaten by ogres by the time I got there.What I really want is a mod or mode that starts with all other factions already confederated, regardless of balance
>finally make my way out of Lustria, forming the dwarf/lizard/TK/knife-ear southern super alliance>all other order factions jobbed with small pockets still aliveVery kino, this should happen more often.Is always disappointing when you reach the old world and it's just Karl Franz and a friendly donut
How's Skrag as my first ogre lord?
>>553684994This.
>>553688819He is the vanilla option.Ally with order factions around and you wont have a hard campaign.
>>553688687He's not hard but you have sissies who think a modicum of challenge means he's impossible to play.
>>553688996I thought greasy was the vaniilla option
GODFranz rules this general and game.
>>553689184Greasus is surrounded by Very Nasty Things so you're fighting for your life the entire campaign
what is it about this map that turns unit pathing Ultra Retard Mode?
>>553689534MPsissies could never fight there...
>>553590176Recently played mors in twh2 and had fun with doing mix and match with a little bit of everything Some plague units (priest and catapult), some assassin units (death runners, some assassin heroes), stormvermin and clanrats and some skryre units (either death globes, arty or other). Also had some monsters here and there or a unit of rat ogres. Point was to make the armies balanced. Shit actually worked pretty well. Tech units are high value but frail, do not need to be spammed. Same with arty and monsters. Just bring a couple. Plague stuff never had a dlc and in general is just an infantry army. Not recommended for late game.
>>553689661rent free
>>553689783>instant seethe replyOH NO NO NO NO
>Could have had Necrons with an awakening mechanic and pseudo-necromancy>Could have had Nids as the endless tide of planet-consuming armies>Could have had Chaos with mechanics for venerating the individual Gods>Instead get Aeldari whose central mechanic is go not interact with the map at all while auto-resolving 'key conflicts'How did they fumble it so badly?
>>553590176You forgot>MutantratsBut maybe they could fall under techrats.I like the schizoness Skaven have but really only Ikit and Thrott are 'fun' everyone else is kinda there except for Pestilins which just sucks ass.
The Spanish try to sally out and achieve victory the same way they did in the battle before. But the new, modern army of Sultan Ismail doesn't rout easily. Holding their ground they manage to fight off the masses of angry Catholics.
>>553689878vanilla factions are de facto boring though, this was fine. Who'd pay for eldar?
>>553689965They needed a second antagonist faction, at this point the game is just Marines with IG allies fighting Orks.
>>553689878>NecronsPeople will paypig for them>NidsPaypigs>ChaosOh you better believe that's a paypig>EldarGotta bundle them at launch because no paypiggies will ink and squeal for Eldar.
>>553688000Space is very big, a lot of it is the equivalent to minor factions, with only their PDF for defense
>Ch*osWOW I NEED SPACEMARINEMANNIII AGAINST SPACEMARINEMMANNNIII(Spiky)
>>553689878Believe you me I'll map paint as eldar>>553689904Pestilens is the single best clan from a gameplay + roleplay standpoint as long as you're playing Vortex campaign in wh2>actually usable special abilities and ability to blanket the map in plagues >fun "stand and bang" infantry swarm play style >good rp storyline with you fucking over the entire world + all of skavendom in order to get the clan as #1
>>553689534The horrible pathfinding
Remember this map?
I was so bored with my cathay campaign that I was considering restarting (I'm waiting for chaos portals to get souls) but I stopped being dumb and made armies to go out and conquer faraway lands and it's fun againI was too tunnelvisioned in thinking shit is too far away
>>553691193yes
>>553691271Nervous?
>a core faction part of the core identity of warhammer 40k is in the first total war warhammer gamewaow
>>553691193I don't want to
>>553690905Far more preferable over gay elves in space.
I don't care about the various speece muhreen chapters.
>>553691329Speshmahreens are in the game yes.The rest unironically DON'T matter
I'm only gonna be using a oc space marine chapter that is much better and much bigger because we play by our own rules and are much smarter and have better guns than other space marines
>>553690939>Believe you me I'll map paint as eldarYou literally won't be able to. They already said Eldar are essentially a horde faction that goes into an area for a specific goal then retreats back to their untouchable hidden base to reinforce. You'll literally never hold territory as aeldari, hence them being a fucking mistake.
>>553691193I'd be fine with it if it wasn't the only fucking map available. Like 90% of battles in empire lands were on this map. How hard was it to put up some random terrain, some trees to scare mpniggers and voila, we have a good battle map. They could've just put some intern to work for a week or two and they would have like a dozen maps to go alongside it, instead they butchered it.
>>553691589Nah, im modding that shit. Eldar have had planets before. They will again. Map painting is the literal only point to this gay ass game so I will be occupying earth as eldar (the cool kind with all the aspect warriors not the gay female centric eldar)
>>553691589at this point hamhams 40k is going not going to be a total war game
why are my reinforcements greyed out? And I can't select "control large army". Gonna have to 1v1 3 armies with my weakest stack.
>>553691405They still need to interact with things and have shit around themIts not like people only care about marines in a black hole vacuum
>>553692152Lightning strike?
>>553692152nvm I just found out about lightning strike.
>>553691612Better yet, have battle maps that match the location on the campaign map. Unfortunately that's lost technology for TCALUKLTD
>>553691589>then retreats back to their untouchable hidden base to reinforce.This is the most damning part. They already said craftworlds won't have an actual presence on the map, meaning there's no invasion battles for them.Eldar only got put in so CA could cut costs by not having to model Eldar structures and maps.
>maek eldar a horde faction that doesn't care about the game and cannot interact in any way witb the game world >way harder to get resources and do stuff Because that was SO popular the first time
>>553688819skrag is perhaps the single most powerful lord you can pick in the game
>>553692638>>way harder to get resources and do stuffDon't worry, their unique mechanic is having a special invincible super-settlement that provides all their needs.
>>553677484
>>553693048Super gay in other words
I'm so excited for 40k YIPPEEEE
>reddit is downOH NO NO NO! Dwarfs enjoyers, where am I even supposed to post my "Khazukan Kazakit Ha" meme anymore?!
