admit it, this cover art scheme was SOVL

a couple of threads ago i saw someone asking for the slaanesh reskin made by this game, saying that they couldnt find it and that it might have been taken down, but it is there, but steam i think hides it from the search due to its sexual content, so you need to look through the authors workshop

Karak Eight Peaks is worth having three factions revolving around it
What is Karak Eight Peaks worth?
>>555022725Nothing...No really, nothing orcs and rats stole everything and destroyed it a long time ago
>>555023421I dont get it
>>555019003The best way is to constantly flip between the two randomly
>>555023494There is no joke it's just a picture of Phillipe II

>>555023494That's just Madison posting gay shit, as usual.
>>555023635You don't have to say that and >1 man sitting alone>gay
if you play as Meow Ying defending the gates is piss easy, a trivial annoyance at mostso how come AI Miao always messes it up, loses all three gates and lets the warriors of gayos pass into Cathay?
>>555023857Maybe you're just good at the game
>>555023857That's a manAlsoAI Meow always loses the gates because CA believes in her corruption arc being canon
>>555024184No it's not, what is wrong with you?
>>555023857Thats a sexy korean-american goddessAlsoShe fucks white men
>>555023857Neither player nor AI Miao start with the gates directly in control. There's a cathayan faction that is guarding them, meant to be there until Miao can capture the lands immediately behind the bastion but then fall to the Chaos outside so she can step in and take them. As a player, this is incredibly easy, it's pretty much your number 1 priority, but the AI might take too long to get those lands, won't know how to prioritize once the bastions gets breached on multiple points, and will put the same priority on fighting Snikch who is on the opposite direction. And once the bastions have been breached and Chaos is pouring into Cathay, the AI just gets too confused about what it needs to do first and never actually bothers keeping the bastion sealed.This is also why Zhao Ming is often the most powerful force in the area, he arrives from the south so all the threats are in one dimension, and if he reaches the bastion area it means he already controls a ton of territory and armies and will quickly push out everything Miao couldn't deal with.
>>555023421I'm not a historian but I really don't think he was a twink
I like 40k.Fuck niggers.Fuck kikes.Fuck jews (kikes).Fuck trannys.Fuck jannys.Fuck female space marines, no girls allowed.I like Space King.I like Space Wolves and Dark Templars.I like Grimgor Ironhide.Fuck niggers again.Oh and fuck spics.:^)

>>555024556
>>555025703U kno it.
>my units spend the entire siege uncancellably climbing over ladders even though all the gates are downI love this gamemode.
>>555026239Just don't put em upKeep them firmly inside the bussy all siege
aww hell nah this is racist as shit
bro why did they put a cavalry faction in the middle of a jungle
does anyone want to be an environmental storytelling skeleton with me later?

Anyone knows a way to force Dong Zhuo's death with console in TW3K or any other way? I noticed in my games his death is pretty much never triggering probably because of all the mods but I don't know which is doing it.
>>555034413Well I found out how to kill him but it seems what I really need is a way to force the events.
bro i love outposts, such a good addition

What is the smallest empire you ever won a campaign with?
Undead general.
That, was a close one
>>555039927this one.
This new mod manager makes me crash all the time
>play katarina>go north>throth reks me with his superior units>go south>drycha reks me with her superior units:)
>>555047205stay in kislev, snow niggers
>>555047205KISLEV FUCKING SUCKS
so when I'm fighting chaos dwarfs I just have to ignore their slaves and focus on their handgunners and wizards
in the lore, is skulltaker the strongest of the Khorne lords on the power scale
>>555049846Get some chariots, whatever kind, and mow down the endless hordes of chaff while you go for elites. Same with rats.
>>555047205Skill issue. Kislev is one of the easiest factions in the game.
>>555051239their units are shit
>>555052081In what universe?
>>555052081No their buildings are shit, outside of the cities of Kislev
>>555039927Wood elves with only athel loren and other magical forests.
>>555042781damn
Do you manually battle against Drycha or do you rely on auto resolve?
>>555060176What do you mean? She's nothing special.
Drycha lewd mod when?Yeah I know about the chinese one, I don't read sun runes.
>>555060176What do you mean? Autoresolve obviously.
Legendary Lords that can have absurdly powerful armies in the early game:Arbaal the UndefeatedThe MasqueDrycha
I've been throwing together some different armies to see how they work. This one so far has been incredibly satisfying for late-game. If I'm liking all these fire and explosions, im assuming that I'd like chorfs as well? All the goblin chaff units ive fought against seems meh but I havent had a chance to fight an end-game chorf yet.Also how are thunderbarges? I havent built any yet but planning to soon
>>555062519 (me)dumbass forgot the pic
Anyone familiar with M2TWEOP? It seems too good to be true for all the issues it claims to fix. Would it even change anything if I used it on vanilla medieval 2. I just want vanilla medieval that isn't bugged to hell a la two-handers and pikes (putting them in guard mode is a soft fix that falls apart the moment one model squeaks past the pikes).
>>555047205you need these bad boys as your frontline, get some from karl
are there any lords that are better without their mount
>>555065169>No shield>Low MD>Low armorWhat the fuck are you babbling about, doofy? Greatswords serve no purpose whatsoever.
>>555065483All melee lords, and heroes are better without mounts. The mounts may improve performance, but they make them soulless.
>>555004540Sigmar's willy.
>>555065169I just have more guns as my frontline.

I started a skulltaker campaign and got wrecked by gorok
Imagine a duel between Zhatan the Black and Gor-Rok the White.
Imagine a duel between Volkmar the Grim and a unit of Grave Guard.

>70 turns into my tamurkhan campaign I find out via reddit that the god factions have a cult mechanicFuuuck manI kept wondering what the fuck was the point of cultists when his same building unlocks exalted herosI almost wanna restart at this point but I've painted so much of the map, but progression felt really weird too so I wonder if it's because I wasn't using the cult mechanic
>>555070597Not like Tamurkan needs cults unless you wanna teleport around
>>555071057I had issues with all the damn walking around, teleporting would've helped a lot, plus some other stuff in the cult buildings tab looks really useful
Are there any generic melee type lords that stand out for being very strong? Or any that stand out for being overly bad?
>>555072792Cathay Magistrate is a terrible fighter but that isn't really his true roleOgre Tyrants are greatChaos Lords of Khorne are solid from level 1 and scale quite hardBretonnian Lords can become powerful if you get all of their vows
>>555073002I had a unstoppable bloodspeaker in a valkia campaign. I'd highly recommend one that has a trait to increase experience gain.
>>555073515Oh, cool. I thought that they were more of a support lord.
Do you think we'll ever get throtlings? I love these guys.
>>555070597bro...your cultists on the shrines?Your sending gates?
>>555074710what do they do?
>>555074938they're a cheap swarm unit that's lead by a packmaster
I know this is subjective, but what's the most fun faction in battles?
>>555075210I like chorfs for the epic gunnery but it's subjective
how do you play greenskins
>>555076072literally the OP
How do you play wood elves?/autoresolve-maxx?
>>555076668ambushmaxx
Did you know that there exists a tier 1 unit that has 80 leadership?
>>555077037hmmm nyowhat is it?
without checking I'm guessing its a dwarf unit
>>555077280It's me! :)))))
>>555077496i also had that on my mind>>555077693!!!
>grom can standwhack I was hoping to play a mobility scooter fatso
>>555077280Wood Elves: Eternal Guard
>>555077496>>555077773p. sure its Eternal Guard from welves
Did you know that there is a Legendary Lord with 100 leadership but he doesn't have the Unbreakable trait?
Is Queek a fun campaign? I want to do an infantry focused skaven playthrough. Does he buff clanrats like ghorst does zombies or what?
>>555080372Tretch is better
>>555072792Ancient Treemen and Malevolent Treemen are both powerful and have vital support abilities for their armyBoyars start out identical to empire generals minus a shield but become one of the strongest melee lords once you have their boons
>>555080372He doesn't really do anything, just like Skrolk and Tretch. Wait for the rework, if you want infantry you can go Throt and buff infantry with mutations.
>>555080551I hate Throts starting position. I'm gonna try out Queek and see if I can make it work.
Do any of the other factions have item creation like the dwarves? Been having a blast making a slayer blob and outfitting a ganksquad of garagrim and dragon slayers
i love this skill so much
>>555082886Tomb Kangz >>555075210Beastmen
>>555082886>>555082965wood elves but only the sisters and its not an infinite creation of items to equip all your lords and heroes
>rome 2 crashes and hard locks my PC constantly thanks to windows 11Awesome
>>555084396never happened to me in hundreds and hundreds of hours playing it. you using lots of mods or something?
>>555084512Totally vanilla. Tried tons of fixes from other people, nothing works for long.
>>555084625well that's weird, nothing wrong on my end and i have windows 11 too
>>555084625well my only advice then is to go onto the most autistic total war forum on the internet, total war center, and make a thread in the troubleshooting section for r2 and eventually they'll solve it for you
>>555075210
>>555088941
What exactly is this ugo? A demon? A mutated beastman? Something alien?
>>555089561A norscan.He's just mutated by khorne about 1 billion times
>>555089561that is a gorilla anon
>>555089708No way that used to be a man.. jesus. Well I guess festus was too at one point. >>555089735Don't call my ugly retard a gorilla.
>>555089789He's a Chaos Spawn.He got juiced too many times by Khorne and couldn't handle it but Khorne liked him enough to make him a violent retardmaxxed murder monster rather than a useless lump of flesh and claws.
>>555089789he returned to monke
>>555089789Festus trips me up because he looks so much like a dwarf great unclean one
God good.. this was getting nasty. Had to fight tons of aislinns monsters, fkn 2 armies in a city.>>555091659Well.. nurgle makes his unclean ones look like him so why not festus too
Except for the wrathmonger. They were chillin.. those cunts are so overpowered, kek.
Excuse me?
>>555092240blood hosts don't replenish if thats what that is
>>555092303Nay, that's my regular army as you can see in the images above. The lord and heroes replenish but the infantry doesn't
I kill Aislinn and now they replenish again? what...
>>555026239Bro, your siege towers?
>>555082886Tomb kings let you craft items based on special resources available including trading
Are the Lewdhammer mods up to date?
I have a 14 hour flight in a few days. What campaign should I play on my laptop to pass the time? I don't own all of them but if I see one I do own I can give it a shot. I'm flying economy. Left side Aisle seat so I got extra leg roomOr shold I play new Pokemon Snap on my nintendo switch 1>>555014675Am I setting myself up to get stomped if I play Ursus without any Kislev DLC? Kossars are just really ineffective vs armored chaos warriors and knights. they get crushed by cav and missile fire.I see people recommend the kossars with great weapons but I can't recruit them. you start with 2 war bear units but I use them to kill big the big stuff and ranged units.
>>555094847Stelsi or however you type it worked well enough for me, tbhdesuArmorpiercing gunlines and armorpiercing axes for up close
3 fucking stacks of peasants.. this took 20minutes man. They just run away constantly and then wanna fight again over and over..

>>555065556You clearly haven't actually tested what they beat 1v1
Do other factions have good ways to get to places like chaos factions have with teleporting?
>>555105389wood elves can just teleport an army to any big magic tree every X turns
>>555105389The best ones are return dillemmas like Eltharion/Gelt/Ostankya get, so you can choose where your campaign isThere are some like Oxyotl and Golgfag but they aren't as controlled as cult teleports
>>555065556>No shieldA lot of good infantry have no shield.>Low MD30MD is pretty average.>Low armor95 armor is relatively very high for infantry.

>>555110743I miss those mini cutscenes, it was such a neat detailhttps://youtu.be/HMlu7ZleclIthe ones in the original game were PVRE SOVL
>>555110743>>555110903Lost technology
>>555110181Of all the mods, why would you seek a mod that showy you how much money another faction has? Not only can you find out how much they have by using diplomacy, it's completely irrelevant.

can a dark elf be fixed or are they permanently corrupted
Man April can't come soon enough, I want some real news on 40k.
I bought this game a month and a half ago...
Dark elf (drukhari)
>>555119081They don't need to be fixed
>>555119362Squire plz
>>555119081Dark Elves are not inherently corrupted and few of them leave to live in Athel Loren or Marienburg/Sartosa etc.
>>555119081Dark elf-high elf is almost a pure culture thing, it's not like greenskins or chaos dwarfs or skaven.Dark elves are far more likely to have black hair, high elves are far more likely to be blonde, but dark elves raised as high elves will act like high elves and high elves raised as dark elves will act like dark elves.
>>555119776is that why there's an emo black haired elven lord
>>555119903Alith anar actually descends from the high elves of ulthuan and his original designs gave him blonde hair.
>>555120410then none of this makes any flipping sense!
>>555119776Even the black/blonde dichotomy is really just GW painting minis to stand out from each other.There's zero biological difference between dark and high elves, it's literally the same people, but on different sides of a war.Wood elves might actually be biologically different, that forest does weird shit to everyone in it.
>>555119081The difference, excluding cultists of pleasure, is entirely 95% cultural. Druchii are mostly descended from nagarythe so they have paler skin and darker hair but it's almost entirely just a matter of them growing up in a fucked up environment and being unable to imagine leaving
>>555120453Aleaf's father was from Nagarythe where blacked haired elves was in majority. He served Malekith but chose to be loyal to Ulthuan (unlike Aleaf's wife lmao) when civil war broke so Mally (or Morathi) killed him.
>>555075210for me i enjoy just shooting or raining the enemy with arrows and to watch them route before even getting to my army
>>555120709>entirely just a matter of them growing up in a fucked up environment and being unable to imagine leavingDruchii say the same about Asur
>>555120832and they're wrong and stupid because asur don't torture slaves to death
>>555120895if torturing slaves to death is evil why does it make me happy?
>>555120940because you grew up in a fucked up environment and are unable to imagine leaving now face the wall
>>555120997so much for the tolerant Asur...
>>555120612The art itself is also pretty consistent about giving dark elves black hair and especially high elves blonde hair.
self ex
>>555117468An ungrateful piece of shit person that does good things will still not be missed, despite the fact that objectively CA will be free to do Shadows of Change over and over for 40k and succeed at it because he won't be there anymore to call them out on it.
>>555122820>Still hurts.Did you even support him?

Dear anons,Despite my post >>555112651 being extremely and objectively funny, I have yet to receive any positive assessments from any of you concerning this matter. I am sure this was due to an issue with the website's infrastructure, or possibly due to other unforeseen reasons that hindered your ability to celebrate my efforts towards bettering our shared virtual space.Anticipating your welcome feedback, I await your positive response.Yours truly,anon
>>555112651>>555127337Thank you for your>gameplay>funnycontribution to /twg/. Have a great day!
Who do (You) want the Cathay lord to be?
>>555128425I would wish for Yin-Yin, but based on what they've said, it will definitely be the Monkler.
>>555128425yin-yin > monke > lidao But i want all 3 eventually
>>555128425Yin-yin, I want shimaidon.
The fat ghost lady has to be the least played legendary lord of all time, right?Who wants to play as a fat ghost lady?
>>555127737Thank youI will make sure to post more
>>555131097The bitter ghost of an opera singer captaining a cursed ghost ship is an awesome ideaKeep yourself safe, faggot
>>555131978Damn, sorry... I didn't mean to offend anyone. I guess I have preconceived and prejudiced notions on what's a cool idea.I'll try to play her some time and see what it's like.
>>555131097All the statistics indicate she is the least popular vampire coast lord, but the peg leg lady is actually a very close second because nobody cares about her except coomers.
>>555132204I think you just found the only subhuman bold enough to express how much he loves being a gigafaggot by playing cholesterol direfat
>>555132661>but the peg leg lady is actually a very close second because nobody cares about her except coomers.I would be very sexually attracted to her if she had cute scaley feet with soles and toes instead of peg legs, not gonna lie.
>>555121607but what about dark elves?
>>555128425Yin-Yin tickles my preference in terms of cute girl. As far as thematics go I wonder how they would make her diferent from Aislin as the dedicated Ocean Police. What kind of units they'd get. Wonder if they'd get a great-bastion-like mechanic but against pirates.Monkey king would be the first choice as far as land expansion goes - its a position where you can happily add more stuff. Though thematically it's strike me more as like... a unique hero or something, not really a character who owns territory and builds castles and leads armies like Cathay's armies. Doesn't really seem like a Jade Warriors type of guy.The whole region is really in need of map expansion imo because things can get so damn peaceful

I like warcraft elves more than warhammer elves. There I said it.

Are grave guard still garbage? Haven't played Vlad since WH2 and wondering if the vamp counts can make a good late game army.
pure cheese, theres not even towers on this side to fuck me up
Why would you post meshi elves and not post the hottest one
>>555133356
how do you play as cathay? i never played as them but what's their strong points?
>>555135919sorry
>>555135919god I love BROWN elves
>>555135931what do the runes mean
>>555119190that's normal. the game is like crack
>>555136247brown skin doesn't mean "Brown"
>>555134325No one said that. Some fags who are raiding anything related to Warhammer after the femstodes shitshow were instantly rustled when someone pointed out that CA themselves now think the Vcoast is the weakest of the DLC packs specifically because only half of it has anything to do with the namesake. CA is going to do a brush up for it and maybe even give Aranessa living troops only, due to lore reasons they previously ignored because they wanted 50% parity male and female LL releases.For the record we missed out on;Pirate RatsPirate Dwarfs and Pirate SlayersSartosa being literally in universe Nassau filled with non undead piratesCorsair ElvesMarienburg 'East Ind Company'Bretonnian NavyAll so they could add in a fat uninspired OC and even then, They made the Opera singer fr*nch instead of Tilean - the Renaissance Italy cluster of city states. These 'people' do not know or care for the lore and frothed at the mouth - apparently for days now - at the idea a 'female' inclusion no matter how baseless and retarded was not only unpopular but ultimately a poor choice by every metric. Chief of them being Aranessa specifically hates undead more than anyone else save Harald Hammerstorm. It is a pretty big part of her character. Imagine then, Ungrim Ironfist being reworked to solely recruit dwarf miners and then otherwise the full greenskin roster.None of them campaign post, or even have Cholestral's achieves in 2 or 3, again due to being some faggy discord raid chasing the 40k drama. Like all culture war faggots, they have no real comprehension WHFB and 40K are not directly joined at the hip.Luthor and Noctilus are not only fine I would argue Noctilus has the best position for TOTAL WAR campaigning in the game.
>>555134160all elves are female, yes even that one
>>555136376If I'm not mistaken, the ones above are Aeldari runes symbolizing aspects/paths, and the ones below are Drukhari symbols.

>>555137745
>>555139769you just know some fugly tranny made this
>>555136851>For the record we missed out on;It's not like a choice between 'add two legendary lords' and 'add essentially 6 new subfactions with new units for each' is a simple choice. One takes effort and dev power that the other doesn't! They were only setting out to create one new faction with one new unit roster, not two whole new separate unit rosters.

>>555159083That's not how average lifespan works
>>555158868the funny part is my faction of choice is necrons.But I know I won't have to wait for long for them, so Deldar are awaited.
I hope my faction is late in the game's lifespan so I can jump into a more finished product to play them
>>555139769Shouldn't it be the other way around? Shouldn't he be considered a heretic for using the more alien form of their names?
Reminder.There is no brown elves in Warhammer and/or 40K.
Can Sororitas be their own faction in tw40k? I'm not a lorefag but they seem more like a cheerleading squad for the real army.And honestly playing Eldar or Necrons and mass killing space nuns just feels wrong.

The only way to counter horny posting is to post rats.
>>555159376This is the best scenario you can hope for.Launch factions will get multiple, massive reworks Eldar wont because they will be the Vcounts of 40k however if your DLC is within the first 2 years it will be barebones as shit and its fixes and updates will only come via individual LL releases that only affect that particular sub faction.I really hope Tau is first so they can then abandon them to power creep.

Any particular armies/legendary lords you thought was the dumbest shit til you actually played it and became a fan? Never really touched Norse but troll king was a fun time. The Lizard people and Eshin Skaven grew on me as well.
>>555186242Cathay in general. Had no desire to play them, but rolled them on faction picker and ended up being one of the longer campaigns I've played.On the other side, I was expecting to enjoy Ogres a LOT more than I did.
>>555186242Rats
>>555186242Ostankya
>>555186242If you like lizards, try oxy. Oxcom is fun as fuck and a 10/10 time.Personally, Tomb kings, namely the snake cav.and for the inverse, holy shit do I not like khorne
>>555186242Karl Franz.
>>555180392It's a rape or be raped world
>>555186410Ogres are a good time and at first I under estimated how nice it is having big guys menacing just early on and then when you get the later army stuff they’re surprisingly a good time.
>>555186620Why bo likie red?I've played some 15 Skarbrand campaigns. He is just so awesome. It fixes lots of stuff I hate in other factions. All global recruitment in 1 turn, no more playing tag with the ai, no need to do stupid formations and be fucked by horrid terrain.. it's just so comfy.
>>555154497why does brown skin always make elves sexier?
>>555186242Cathay in general, yeah.ORDER... ANDu BARANCE!

>>555189914Wasn't it like.. you have to defeat all 3 in one turn or they respawn once? So you'd have to kill twice.
>>555190502>"so I'll be sure to have your back..."
>>555189914wow, that game looked disgusting, as tho T1 elven archers being the strongest unit in the entire game wasn't enough of a turnoff
what's the ultimate comfort campaign? Decently challenging, fun battles and good campaign mechanics.
>>555193635Astragoth Zulahooooo
>>555193635Arbaal is comfy cause Khorne's roster is easy to manage and it's as difficult as you want it to be
>>555193876>>555194028>Decently challenging
>>555194178Yeah, retardIf you want Arbaal to be a decently challenging campaign, he can be. It all depends on what challenges you choose to take.
>>555193635uhhhhh...Drycha - not challengingAny ogres - not challengingThrogg - not challengingAislinn - not challenging Oxcom is at least a bit challenging for the first battle as you can't autoresolve... but it's piss-easy afterhmmm
>>555023857This is how I Three Kingdoms.
>>555193635I want the opposite of this>very challenging>fucked in the ass battles>no campaign mechanicsYeah!!! I'm thinking it's time for another Khalida campaign!!!
Almost done with my tamurkhan campaign and I'm really enjoying it (mostly because nurgle rules but also the mixed units keep it fresh) but I also kind of felt like it was kinda lacking, idkThe chieftains spawn on top of tamurkhan so if I decide to wait until getting one he has to travel for 50 miles to go elsewhereNurgle's initial economy is fucked so I couldn't afford 3 armies for a long time (maybe I was being too picky instead of spamming nurglings idk)The win mechanic is kinda weird (you just level up your guys then do 1 quest battle?) with how some of the level up conditions are (there's like 0 elves near me so the lizard guy had to level purely via research which honestly kinda makes my victory condition kinda feel like a "waiting game")Is it just from me playing the game weird (not getting all chieftains as soon as possible and putting them in cheap nurgling armies) or is it just how this campaign plays? Realms of Chaos campaign for the guy btw
>>555196761Surely she'll get some love once Neferata is here right?
>>555198053>Hrrrmm, yeah ok, so, now Khalida gets a turn 1 quest to destroy Neferata's faction and hold Silver Pinnacle. If she succeeds, she gets +20 unit capacity for Sepulchral Stalkers aaaaaaaaaaand uhhhhh... global minus to corruption. Done!
Give khalida her ammo boost back and unlimited horse archers

i kinda suck with slaanesh :/
dead general
>>555204526Just stack like 10 chosen, a couple heroes and the rest fiends and play pile of violence. That's what I always do and it works quite well.
>>555204526like this
>>555205289I'll try that, I've been struggling with the Chorfs because they always have 5-8 single entity artillery units that just blow everything up and snipe my lord
>>555204526you have two hammers. smash them together with the enemy in the middle
>>555204526sounds like you're playing slaanesh right then ehehehehehehehehehehehehe
I dont get how its taken the retards who design WH3 to be like: "hey, maybe we should add easier ways to confederate factions, including when one of the LLs ends up dying" yet theyve still not added it for every faction yet. Even a mod does it better than they have.
>start game>no starting melee hero with cunning or disciplined>no starting mage hero with intelligent>reset until finally getting the right traitFinally, now I can play the game properly
>>555206656Yes, and every faction should have AP archers with 180 range at T0! 120 armor of course! And every LL's name should be twice longer! Now go, 16 year old retard, and make your game "better" with mods!
>>555207484You can just save heroes with traits you want and then load them into the game if you're that keen on starting with what you want
>>555205837Thisthe correct mindset with slaanesh is to imagine that most of your units are dicks. You should be using those dicks to DP and gangbang the enemy units whenever possible.
Say, are Dark elves, Greenskins, Norsca, and Wood elves beginner friendly? which Legendary lords would you recommend for them?
why is tzeentch missing an flc lord
>>555209218Yeah they're easyI'd recommend Thorgrim to take out all of them.
>>555209218No. Beginners are always better off playing defensive factions. Being reactive is easier than proactive. Factions like Dwarfs, Cathay, High Elves and Lizardmen are best for beginners.
>>555209836isn't the wood elves all about being defensive though?
>>555209465SoC was the all-time low for the Warhammer trilogy because it was made when TCAL were joining the pack and so had much less investment. After it rightly flopped they went back to FLC being released alongside DLC, the payment for this error was that Tzeentch got less than the following three Chaos gods, TCAL have stated their intention to eventually give Tzeentch a mortal Legendary Lord, presumably Egrimm.>>555209939No, they're skirmish and shock. All their infantry besides Eternal Guard are focused on killing instead of holding.
Ogre camps working as intended.
>>555210564Gotta keep the great maw secure bro.
who has the best foreskin unit out of all of the chaos factions? I want to say nurgle since they're tankier than the rest but maybe also the undivided one since it kinda does everything but just not as good by a little bit
>>555211116>who has the best foreskinKholek and it isn't close.
>>555211116Beastmemes duh.
>>555211223forsaken**
>>555209218My first lord, and my comfort lord, is Drycha.She's easy, minimal types of units, strong cavalry in wolves, bears, and spiders, and her hammer, anvil, and SEMs are strong.
>>555211223His is probably the largest by area, but does that necessarily make it the best? I think there are other factors that need to be considered here, like elasticity or cleanliness.
The dreaded goblin meta is upon us:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyeTCbIGZOs
>>555209218The Krakenlord, you can make your initial enemies a vassal by selling them a settlement, use VCO too for campaign objectives and just use your black arks and lokhir as a menace of the sea.
>>555212579>cleanlinessor... cheesiness
>>555211116Only chaos, probably N'kariClosely is Khonek (sheath cleaning is fun), Queek (he's actually pretty clean) or SigvaldHowever, I would like to raise Golgfag.

They always underestimate the goblins...
>>555212584How does he manage to make the correct tactical decisions so fast? Even with pause I wouldn't be able to make half those calls correctly.
>>555213534Trolls aren't even greenskins in the first place.
>>555213791Total war is downright slow compared to most RTS anon.
>>555213909Its glacial. This is why the MP scene is so anaemic. Anyone remotely interested in strategy that is any good plays SC, AoE variants etc. There is a larger DoW 2 MP scene than WH3 Total War.Not to mention the stale enforced meta's and boring games averaging 17 units combined from both sides. Its like reading about 'battles' from the early medieval period where the King, his guard of 14 men, 52 Men At Arms and a random peasant fought bravely to defend the kingdom from the invading army of 62 enemy troops led by a minor noble whose wealth constituted a small wooden keep with a moat that oversaw the VAST 7 house village that has a windmill.MP in TW is mechanically boring and the one thing the setting has going for it, instead of a few hundred model maximums of RTS, scale and spectacle - is completely absent.Meanwhile in SP in WH3 right now I just fought Archaon with my Norse Dwarfs numbering over 8000, vs his 26,000 in a desperate siege defence where I had to throw away 2500+ slayers to hold Harold Hammerstorm, Archaon and a dozen Greater Daemons so my artillery had even a slight chance to kill them. I still lost but I took his greater daemons, and almost 15 units of Chaos Knights AND his Sword of Chaos - that will allow my relief army to fight his battered bruised leftovers of only 12,000 full of chosen and his 500+ aspiring champions I barely made a dent against.I have also been playing the LotR mod for Atilla and sieged Minas Tirith with 30,000+ orcs vs their 20,000 defenders. One Battle took an hour and a half, frames started evaporating during the big mosh pits, even with the cores used fix and my beast of a machine AND I needed a break but this is why I play Total War.Or I can 'watch' someone else flail around with 3-800 tier 1 troops...
>>555213909Unit responses are slow compared to rts too.
>>555163030This is what Eldar are going to look.Future of total war is BROWN
>>555214838Yeah, it's the campaign map that makes TW interesting. I just wish CA could import the legacy map from the previous games, like the Vortex map because playing a faction in Nehekhara is pretty cool, TOW mod can do it but the loading times are bad.
>>555215000you promise?
>>555215232Brown but not like that
>>555214838>Not to mention the stale enforced meta's and boring games averaging 17 units combined from both sides.

The actual strategy part of the game, of scouting your enemy to make calculated risks, is non-existent. The army you build could just be countered from the word go, the game lost from the first second actually spent playing. The most important, strategic part of the game happens in a menu and ends up being just the same generalist crap because they've made up so many houserules. You would never have to houserule a fucking sc2 game, the standard ruleset that the pros play is the exact same for the average gold laddertard
>>555214838>Meanwhile in SP in WH3 right now I just fought Archaon with my Norse Dwarfs numbering over 8000, vs his 26,000 in a desperate siege defence where I had to throw away 2500+ slayers to hold Harold Hammerstorm, Archaon and a dozen Greater Daemons so my artillery had even a slight chance to kill them.

>>555214838>Meanwhile in SP in WH3 right now I just fought Archaon with my Norse Dwarfs numbering over 8000, vs his 26,000And yet you still can't sniff a tourney qualifier win kekw>muh high apm gook clickers!And yet all the gooks have been utterly annihilated by Turin alone in their own TW tourney lol. Only gooks who can actually play TW are the exceptions like Enticity and that one Korean dude whose name eludes me atm.
Vampire Coast should've had cute man-eating mermaids on the roster.
Are small MP maps with like 3-4 provinces a thing?I guess you would have to standerize tech and econ a little, but I don't see why it couldnt be something more interesting to play
>>555217026mpfags would shit and piss if they had to manage a province before a battle
>>555216449Using PropJoe's mods and I have a mod where by turn 30 Archaon just confederates all of chaos and Norsca and goes to war with the whole world.https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3624585761 Is actually really impressive because it works with any other mod. Just need the launcher to adjust the size you want and health of things.https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3540822813&searchtext=Chaos Is mandatory for me now playing any non chaos faction.
>>555216464>can't sniff a tourneyMore people take interest in the local darts tournament at the pub. The 'elite' few means nothing when those same few outnumber total participants.Go circle jerk in the discord, fag. You have been at this for years, and no one cares.
>>555216449The lotr mod has submods for units size etc. Unfortunately no universal one like WH3.
>waah waah too "few" people!>when the MP scene is the biggest ever in TW history>btw I can't even beat those "few"!Kek how about you beat the existing people first before crying you don't have enough opponnents, retarded singlcel shitter?
Oh wow its 20 people instead of 5 so hugeNobody cares, shill somewhere else
>>555217789>MP scene is the biggest ever in TW history>0.00001% players is big
>>555217789We aren't playing the same game.I participate (even won a few) pro am golf tournaments. I do not play tennis though. Both hit a ball with a stick but that is where similarity ends.MPfags are free to play their pygmy queer version of the game. It can be "bigger than ever" but when the new highs are recorded by an extra 12 people playing....who cares other than wannabe e-celeb fags and their even more pathetic 'followers' ??Also, it is proper decorum to use the reply function when responding to people here. You give off nufag vibes, except we all know you are some chronically disabled, autistic retard and a redditfag to boot.
>"N-nobody c-cares!"Cried the retarded singlcel shitter while TCALUK continued to balance the game strictly for MP and host $4k first place prize tourneys kek
I like watching MP matches.
You don't even play TW, froggy. Why don't you go back to /crpgg/ and play Veilguard instead?
>We aren't playing the same game.Correct. Subhuman singlcel shitters aren't even playing the game so we can't be playing the same game by definition. Your tutorial shitter babbymode with a gorillion unit stat cheats allowing you to shit out 80MD goblins has nothing to do with the game which is balanced strictly for base unit stat play, i.e. for MP. Eat shit.
The mpfag doesn't even play this game, he just pretends. Ask him to post his in game hours.
>>555218209You know we can edit the game at will?You know I have not played WHTW with healing caps for more than 1 hour.SAD!
>>555218295>>555218295>Eat shit.I don't go in for Somali cuisine, bitch tits.
oh wow a whole four thousand dollarschump change for a streamer tournament let alone actual esportsi'm sure you must be glad CA decides to arbitrarily ruin units for such grand winnings
>froggy having a melty (again)So this is The Strongest Dragon Age Player
>You know we can cheat?Yes, cheatranny singlcel shitter. I know. Not the flex you think it is.
I couldn't imagine spending literal years of my life aggressively baiting a 4chan general for a game I don't even like or play.Genuine mental illness, why does every general have to have at least one of you fuckers?
>>555218346hes just going to falseflags like he always does>>555218454because it the same one, he like 5 different threads
>>555218454>why does every general have to have at least one of you fuckers?The truth is its just a few crossposting because of slow thread movement.
Oi mpfag, answer my question>>555217026Is this something that exists? Or do you guys only spam big army vs big army skirmishes?
No one plays MP campaigns competitively. It's pure retardation even if they were modded to 1/100th the size of the IE map simply due to uncontrollable unit stat bloat.
>>555218583>big armybit of an overstatement, an MP army would be lucky to go over 12 units. Its purely land battles between two arbitrarily built armies because the MPfags threw bitchfits over every attempt to make their game actually competitive and engaging.
>>555218454It's the German autism, you wouldn't get it
>oh wow a whole four thousand dollarsThe muttoid orange pedophile tariff dividend package is a mere laughable 2k and is considered life saving for mutt families lmao. Most mutts are 70k+ in debt (a lot of which is credit card debt with insane rates) and would kill for a $k prize kekw. The singlcel shitter pretending he could just casually brush off $4k like it's nothing is the most pathetic salty retard ITT which is quite impressive tbqhwyf
This is your average salty mutt singlcel loser laughing at $4k tourney win prizes kekw
chump change for tournament winnings
>>555218832>Its purely land battles between two arbitrarily built armieslmao, that sounds kinda boring, but I guess RTSs are kinda dead now so I'm not gonna judge them too hard
>literally, unironically, unambiguously, non-metaphorically life-saving money for mutts>"C-chump c-change!"OK, retard.
>>555219413Not for me, I went to trade school. Work 6 months of the year FIFO and earn more than the Prime Minister (before corruption)
>>555219290It is because the battles are objectively not strategic, they're tactical. The problem with all 1v1 tactics games is that if they're not exact mirror matches with the exact same resources then you're not actually testing the ability to adapt under pressure you're half testing their ability to counter their opponent before the game even starts. Its like the xcom multiplayer mode where people just brought jetpack plasma snipers and some spotters because its objectively the best killer. It'd be like chess except one guy had the ability to exchange several pawns for queens on the line but the other guy could only change his rooks for knights, one guy is just getting fucked on game start. The strategic element is everything that goes into army building and picking a specific battlefield, when the latter is random and the former is arbitrary (i'd post the pages of the MPfag rulebook but i'm not at home right now) there is no strategy. There is no sending some witchhunters ahead of your army to see what buildings he has in his capital, no extrapolating what certain cities being specced certain ways could mean, no moving carefully to try and catch his army out on unfavorable ground, no trying to preserve units so you can follow up on a win for a finishing blow; its just mashing the same 4-7 value purchase frontline infantry into their own frontline then microing the 3-4 units that are actually going to kill shit.
A random rivals streamer tournament had a 40k prize pool with 3k for all six of the winning teamChump change, seethe more
So far the only ones seething are the loser poorfag mutts who can't afford a cheeky $400 unexpected expense let alone a $4k one which they desperately pretend to not need while all objective and inarguable statistical data screams otherwise lol

>>555257909Shame the game has no real distinct factions
>>555258187It has unmodifiable lords like Arachna, Karissa, Sundren, Nimue, etc so you can play those, if you want unique factions.

>>555216965>>555239903this is from the new expansion, right?game was cool, I should get back to it I ended up playing about 20 hours but didn't finish it
>>555259567Yes, it's from the Sarras expansion area. Pretty good expac, I might add: lots of side quests, C&C and cool marine aesthetics.
>>555258652I did and got bored real fucking fast. Though I also find tzeentch and machinations etc boring. Doesn't help playing Norsca feels like you are just playing the starter units only of Chaos. Sayl himself does nothing for me. He looks like a generic lord I recruit to pad out some support army. I genuinely would not be able to pick him from a crowd of chaos sorcerers. I don't expect a clown character but his design and theme is extremely bland.For the record my favourite armies are unga bunga slayers only types.Also I hate this captcha so fucking much.
