Best/most enjoyable Norscan LL?
Will we get DLC in 2027?

Are (You) joining the new pack that just released??
WE ARE THE HIGH GUARDS
>>555259234>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.monke or yin-yin?
ajo where new 40k news?!
>>555261313>200 reviews mostly negative in less than an hourGeoff changed what should've been a quiet EoS into a global humiliation kek.
>>555261564February will be Cathay news because of Chinese New Year.March might be Warhammer 40,000 news.

You know how in Attila when you research new technologies and you eventually start losing access to older technologies?
>>555262217I really am notsex with stupid chinese girls btw
>>555263404shit was so retarded>hmm yes it was religion that made rome forget all its technological advances...and nothing else!
>>555261252whats the IQ of an ogre?They seem smarter than rats but have worse tech
>>555262217I am, but I got banned the last time I posted the pasta, so this time I'll just say fuck you.
>>555262217>>555263571Curious that China makes you madI wonder who's responsible for that
>>555263754the chinese
>>555263531>smarter than rats>smarter than species that literally invented genetic engineering, split the (w)a(rp)tom and and can produce literal cyborgsNo.
Bros, Pack 2 is acking too..
>>555263531Smarter than orcs but not as smart as goblins
>>555263959>smarter than species that literally invented genetic engineeringLike half of the races in warhammer were biological experiments by the old ones created thousands of years before skaven even existed.>can produce literal cyborgsOld ones did that too.
>>555264686Ever heard of independent inventions? Muh old ones inventing stuff first doesn't mean the based rats didn't invent the same things independently.
>>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/saurus only types.Keep it simple, stupid.Also I hate this captcha so fucking much.
>>555263832>>555263754That is correct. I remember it's not the first time in world history this happened. China already made everyone mad once before, back in 1900. Ahh, those were good times.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eq8Hy7527fc
Love from Kislev.I hate Chorfs so much it's unreal
>>555266263When you lose a horseman... you lose not one but two soldiers.
>>555266263>>555266414They came back with more.
>>555267943I guess that you are playing the end game crisis. That is a lot of Chaos Dwarfs.

Im already beaten down so It's fairly easy for the fresh stack of chorfs. Take a few of them with me.>They take gates of zharr.>BUT in all of this has weakened their forces.

YOUR DEATHS WERE NOT IN VAIN! YOUR TZAR AND TZARINA ARE HERE!AND THEY ARE FUCKING PISSED!
>>555270971Is it even possible for the chorfs to not end up dominating unless the player fights them all early?
>>555269418>>Reddit mash without any strategy across the entire mapFag. Rome 1 is lauded for a reason. Expanding and conquering for your own superior people is kino of the highest order and every faction that fails to grasp that feeling of taking control of a Roman patrician family and conquering everyone else in service of your factions ideal - is a shit faction that eventually gets patched to have conquest mechanics. Even Chaos Warriors with their Dark Fortresses.
>>555269418Thats one of my biggest gripes with WH as well. Everywhere you go its a mismash of factions. >Ahh, Lustria, the continent inhabitated by lizardmen (well two of them, the rest is skaven, high elves, tomb kings, vampire coast, khorne, slaanesh, dark elves, bretonnia and empire)>Ahh, Naggarond, the domain of Dark Elves (and dwarfs, beastmen, ogres, tomb kings, high elves, vampire coast and wood elves)>Ahh, Empire, the heart of the Old World known for its hum-well no, more than half of it is now Vampire Counts, Nurgle, Wood Elves, Skaven, Ogres, Greenskins, Beastmen and Skaven.
>>55527153890% of the time the dark elves will dominate Naggarond and the Empire will dominate the old world.The lustriabowl is a toss up though yes.
>>555271538the point is that you get to fight as many different foes in any given location as possible
Border prince LL when?
>>555271538>Ahh, Empire, the heart of the Old World known for its hum-well no, more than half of it is now Vampire Counts, Nurgle, Wood Elves, Skaven, Ogres, Greenskins, Beastmen and Skaven.All of those factions except Nurgle and Ogres have dedicated presences in the old world though?And Nurgle can be excused because they're in a Chaos fortress where Chaos should be and Ogres are capable of going anywhere and doing anything.
>>555271538
>>555272285Sadly, that might not be happening anymore.There is a real possibility that CA pivoted from that one.
The Kaiser has assigned Prinz Leopold to bring Prague under Reich control. Currently, the city considers itself "independent" but is no more than a town ruled by Slavic scum. After encircling the city, Prinz Leoplod wishes to prove his daring and calls for an assualt on the walls.(Gameplay from Feral Interactives Android Mobile port - VH/VH)
>>555276376>Slavic scumDo you know how little that narrows it down?
>>555276376>be hisfag>post the most janky, outdated, uninteresting 00's or even 90's game in the series out of pure spite, just to derail the threadHistorical TW is over. Give up and migrate to /gsg/.
>>555216965I mean...
The Slavs of Prague put up a fierce resistance, peppering the Reichs troops with fire arrows. The siege tower bursts into flames, followed by the battering ram. Taking advantage of the confusion, the Slavs sally forth and charge. A melee around the gates ensue while the remaining German soldiers scale the walls with ladders. Archers fire over the walls into the defenders back lines, in an attempt to provide covering fire.
>>555276376>>555277128Based keep posting
>>555263531They're dumb, but not stupid. About on par with throgg and the average bretonian. They just literally all feel a constant starving sensation.How smart are you when you haven't eaten for a week?
Bodies litter the ramparts, but after fierce fighting the Reich pushes into the city. The Slavs fall back to the town square, determined to make the enemy pay with their lives in a brave last stand.
Bloody, brutal combat erupts in the town center. The slavs shout out battlecries in their bastard tongue. The brave soldiers of the Reich charge forward, and the streets run slick with blood. The fallen are trampled under those who still stand
Prinz Leopold, ever eager to prove himself, leads his personal guard in a charge through the slav rear. Trumpets blare and lances are lowered. Bodies are thrown about and broken from the charge of horses. It isnt long before the last of the slavs lie dead, and the soldiers of the Reich celebrate a glorious victory.
Guys... my troops are wavering. How do I get their leadership up?
>>555278420Decimation
>>555278420So they have moved from external social shaming to ingroup demoralisation. I am sure the UK media knows all about ICE...

>>555278836
>>555276965Every time I see those spiky pegs I imagine how she'd work if she had chainsaws mounted there instead.
>>555279441like this?
>>555278420Keep publicly executing the lowest-morale troop members until morale improves. It works in 40k.
why do all the order factions have weak infantry but strong ranged while chaos factions have strong infantry and weak to no ranged?
>>555279604Yeah, but on both legs.
>>555280184
i got a caradryan through confederation and then another one through the regular questlinethanks tcaluk
>>555280184because Chaos causes sentient beings to regress into primitive predators, hence all the horns and fangs.
>>555280967I assumed "a caradryan" was just some new hero type when I first saw him
>>555280184The evolution of warfare is a steady decline of integrity.
>>555280184Chaos has the strongest ranged in the game (rats + chorfs).

Why are Chaos Dwarfs good at everything?
>>555283996Not good at cheap anti-large.
>>555280967his portrait is so fucking bad
>>555283996you pay a premium for it. the only thing free with chorfs is suffering.
>>555282625Yo Froggy. What are your overall thoughts on Tyranny? Is it true it's the CRPG with best replay value and reactivity or is that overhyped? Worth a buy?
>unpaid interns
>>555285227It's good, but it's not the best. Tyranny is relatively very short game, especially if you're used to 120h big RPGs so keep that in mind: you will have a high amount of C&C crammed into a relatively short playtime. On the other hand, this yields nice replayability.Also, Tyranny suffers from one major problem few people talk about: extreme repetitiveness when it comes to encounter design and enemy variety.Overall, it's quite good, but not on the level of Pillars 1-2 in pretty much every aspect.
>>555265820Thats a neat way to say Peking
>>555283996They are bad in very early gameTRUTH
>>555278420..maybe Shades should stop murdering their countrymen if they want to be respected.Malekith and the dreadlords should fix this
i want to play troy but everyone says its shit, its the only other total war with cool stuff in it
>>555286360>implying
>>555287339Troy is why we have those shitty tiny sieges in WH3 but it works in Troy with pure bronze age tech. I had fun but I didn't pay for it. (Probably helps that I actually like the Iliad.)
>>555284550the high elf unit cards especially, it feels like they used ai to generate the cardsit has all the traits like the eyes hard to make out and kind of smudged, the low level of detail, tcaluk being pressed for time due to months of delayjust awful all around

regiments of renown are the stupidest mechanic in the game, it works almost exactly backwards from the way it should actually work
>>555280184in history as well as in gameplay, ranged attack = civilization, protagonistic, superior, requires organization melee attack = primitive, simplistic, brute, NPC, thrives on chaos, basically serves as a test for how good you are at shooting and holding lines rather than actual peer conflict however thanks to the magic of fantasy and video games we can experience and simulate wars between civilizations and demonically-blessed hordes of retards who resist bullets with their face, on balance both sides end up being pretty fun in their own ways

What year are we expecting Total War 40K because I know that's supposed to be before Total War Medieval 3,
>>555290450Isn't pus a sign of the body fighting infection? Why would daemons have to fight off bodily infections, they aren't material beings.
>>555292097I think that 2027 is a safe bet.
Bretonnia news when?
>>555292716When you fulfil all 3 of your vows.
>>555292273Well, those demons in particular are actually humans that were changed by Nurgle...and he doesn't cure diseases, just takes away your ability to care about how much they hurt you
>watch a vampire army with 6 mortis engines rock up on me>oh fuck, those are t5 units!>remember that I'm kislev>all of them sniped instantly before making contact with a single slav
Whats the most useless regiment of renown in the game? I'd say it's the Clanrat one
>>555293064>Be Kislevite>Shoot big threats with ranged weaponry>Hold off smaller threats with melee weaponry>WinBut in all seriousness, I will never forget playing the Realms of Chaos campaign as Katarin and going south to absolutely obliterate Mannfred's ass. Vampire Counts can't deal with Armoured Kossars.
>>555292716Brettonia not getting any updates. Considering they live in a deliberately backwards feudal society, this is lore accurate.
>>555287339it's fun but mostly for like one or two playthroughsthe greek AI is literally retarded, they will never conquer troy by themselves. most of my games have been more troy invading greece i think most of the map being water doesn't help with the already shitty ai, they just send armies to completely random islands most of the time
>>555280184I dunno, that's true of empire and bretonnia, but you have Helves (swordmasters, pheonix guard - plus their basic spears have famously good MD) and Dwarfs (hammerers, Ironbreakers, slayers, really they have some of the strongest melee infantry in the game. They are maybe THE strongest faction for infantry beatdowns) and even Kislev and Cathay have some pretty tough dudes with their jade warriors and tsar guard. Lizard saurus too if you count them as an 'order' faction.Skaven aren't exactly Chaos but they're pretty famous for their missiles and chaff.

>>555300180all the tanks will try to get through the gap at the same time, get stuck on each other, one will slip in, get murdered while stuck in infantry.

>>555300180>FistsThat's not a siegeFists suck at siegesFists suck
>>555302394I delete them from the game and put the money towards a fun race
>>555302394>Remove dumb restrictions for hero units. Just make them recruit as normal.>Bloated corpses no longer explode on contact, but instead fight a little before exploding on death like empire landships>Coves can be built without an army present provided the corruption is high enough

God I fucking hate fighting rats. I just want to kill Chinamen with my zombie stacks as Ghorst. Not deal with these shitty fucking rodents.
>>555304716>tunnels behind your armies and razes your settlements
>>555303408Depth guard are very good undead melee infantry, better than counts or kings guard imo.
>>555304928But enough about chorfs
if I wanted to dry out dark elfs but don't care too much for monsters is the Crone or Lokhir a better choice?
>>555305390They still get slaughtered nonstop.
>>555306518I dont think dark elves should be dried
I just want some news
>>555306518Lokhir is way easier. Hellebron needs to be hyper aggressive and get to ulthuan.He also gets Aislinn's special sea lanes to travel the world.
I got the unusual location to boost research as the one faction without a research tree.
>>555307373Tuesday is sometimes a news day.
Longma? More like Shortma
>>555310489Get cranked fucking retarded idiot
>>555305390They cant be used a frontline. Their low models just get chewed up, especially if they're being shot at too. Now the halberds are great for protecting your arty. Two units in the back to defend against cav or monsters works well. Depth guard shine in a 1v1. Rotting promethean gunners are a way better front line unit.
>>555293416People complain a lot about adding content that dilutes faction identity, which I agree with in some places, but I really do think that Bretonnia could afford a bit more than *just* 'most (but not all) types of cavalry' and 'shitty cheap infantry'.Like we don't exactly need Chosen Peasants (Dual Weapons) or Peasant bowmen (Grudge-Rakers) but, like... we can afford to be a *bit* less stark and uncompromising than the current situation.Imagining...-Robin-Hood-y stalk+fire-while-moving decent-melee-combatant archers-lower-mid-tier infantry with stat-lines similar to foot squires but with halberds/sword+shield called 'Royal Guard' or something-LONGbowmen!-Balistae!-Knights of the Realm (sword+shield). Gives you a melee-cavalry that isn't Grail Guardians-Sergeant hero?-Lore of Light for the spellcasters, no idea why they don't get it already.-God please give us better models, bret peasant models look so fucking crusty
>>555316016Go beg to GW for that, or just use mods.
>>555316016cheats, anon. Use the workshop. Lotta hard work put in there.
>>555316016I wish grail knights were 16 units strong and had mass like a rot knight so I can play proper horse game

>>555327479It would make Dorfs fair and balanced.They dont have cav so they need that
This spell seems ridiculously strong compared to what I remember in the previous games.It's like a low cooldown/cost/cast time foot of gork against low armor chaff.

>>555332981>jade crossbowmen beat rat summons in meleeThat's not my experience, summoned rats seem to do way more dmg than they shouldI still don't understand how I'm supposed to defend my ranged units, especially artillery, when they can just summon it inside them
>>555333612if you're REALLY hating the rats, just leadership bomb them before the fight, even if they don't instarout, if the blobs touch at all, their leadership evaporates
>>555332689Celestial Lion or Terracotta sentinel. They cause terror. Don't park em inside, park em behind and let em charge.. or use your dragon lords, they also have terror and make rats route. Or send a sac unit ahead like dragon guard that eat the summons.. or cast the ward save shield on artillery.. dunno, be creative..
>>555333820>Celestial Lion or Terracotta sentinel.I can't make those yet>Don't park em inside, park em behind and let em chargeI've tried that but rat summons melt things too fast so even if the ranged survive they take too much damage>dragon lordsThey're busy dealing with the main armyI guess I just really dislike how summoned units work in this game and I'm not having fun playing a ranged faction
>>555334271Well.. if your main lord is already ass raping the rats, dismount the artillery before combat and hide em till the rat spawns are all out
God I love summons.. hehe
I want 2's missile units, with 3's melee units, and 3K cav. Is that so fucking hard you silly little british todgers?
Total War: Warhammer 3 broke me
>>555334489If rats can melt my tier 2 units imagine what those can doAlso another funny thing I found playing norsca is that dogs destroy gates 20x faster than any monster or artillery can
>>555334780Oh those bloodletter summons melt anything I throw em in. And the fun part is once heir degrade his, you cast that other spell on them that makes em immortal for 20 seconds sot hey just sit in there murdering without taking any losses.
>>555304319With all the goon mods available and even the quite intensive effort for the beastmeme rape animation mod...no one cares to morph and remake her model...lol. lmao!

>>555276961Faggot.
>>555338931they make sense early, or wen playing arbaal and your walking to a hard challenge 2-3 settlements away
>>555304319Sexxxoooooooooo
>>555338931am on like turn 50 with some 20 bloodhosts running around and making more every turn. Countless died already.Is around my 15th Skarbrand campaign.I never run chosen tho, I either run 19 bloodletter or 19 wrathmonger in my real armies.. well a few heroes too.
so being lonely compels you to pay jannies and watch kid animes?
RIP Malus Baneblade
>>555327067>>555327479>what is the tankard
>>555344187That only applies regeneration to the character equipping it.
>>555333612>I still don't understand how I'm supposed to defend my ranged units.Not with tier-0 anti-large spearmen. The rat summons has clanrat stats, I believe, so they're tougher than skavenslaves. If you're getting buttfrustrated as Cathay, I recommend keeping some jade warriors or even peasant horse behind your arty to support. Give's them the yin/yang bonus for the fight, too.
Total War should have more fog of war. Agree? Would you agree? How do you feel about adding more fog of war to Total War?
>>555344406Exactly. Hes got a unique grudge tankard. Full of grudge brew.
>>555335849Theres only one and it just replaces her with a vampfu
>>555345606You replied to someone adding a skill that gives all slayer units in the entire army minor regeneration.
My tabulation of sentient races in Warhammer: Total War 3. Humans, dwarfs, elves, orcs, goblins, ogres, skaven, skinks, cathayans, treefolk, giants*, dragon ogres, dragons*, trolls*. Daemons are not included as they are not real. Beastmen are not sentient they are just impelled forth by forces of Chaos, i.e. fingerpuppets. * may be sentient, most appear to be retarded
>>555345836Youre going in the book.
I didn't take birds into account. Birds are generally extremely smart. Pound for pound they are more intelligent than any terrestrial creature in history. I think octopuses may beat them in total thoughts per volume of of brain but underwater evolution was not interrupted by the K-Pg event. I think a giant bird would be very intelligent. Is this fair? Are Great Eagles sentient? Griffons aren't, they're dumb. Phoenixes?
>play alarielle>cylostra faggotfin travels across the ocean to fuck with mewhat is wrong with the ai in this game man...
>river troll haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagLast thing you hear before you and your coworkers in the Free Company Militia get exploded into viscera
"erm guys...? he is right behind me isn't he?
>>555346861I EAT MEN
>>555346861Does he still shout "I DO THE TROLLING HERE!" if you click him too many times?
>>555346182zoats, fimir, crowmen are also sentient
>>555346861I DEVOUR MY ADVERSARIES!
>>555346861I FEAST ON MY FOES
I sure hope we get some news today.
I'm trying to do the quest battle for Dechala weapon or special item but I keep killing what I'm not supposed to instead of making them run away any advice or anything I need to strictly avoid?
>>555347814Here's some news, asur are superior beings
>>555348045Don't attack the Militia units, just the other High Elf units. The militia will break and flee as soon as the other units are killed.
>>555348175 Okay and I'm also trying to get all the quest battles done any advice on how to get the other two and I'm using mods to make my Army unbeatable strictly to get Quest battle check marks.
DIE FOR URSONIF U DONT DIE FOR HIM I WILL KILL YOU U FUCKING BITCH
I'm new to the genre but are tww3 mods not good or somethingI see a lot of complaining on reddit about "game 2 ez" and whatnot, surely there are mods to help with this?
>>555349193they are numerous powercreeped factions that are impossible to make difficult, like dechala or arbaal for example
What will Nagash's mount be?
>>555350082big bone
even with cheat mods vampire coast autoresolve is ass
>ai keeps pulling never ending stacks out of it's asshole
You do know that you can turn down the difficulty?
>>555350623High difficulty AI is a subtle parody of the dichotomy of the financial reality of the average person versus that of national governments.
one WH chart I could really get behind is nr. of quest battles per LL!
>>555350623Yet you are almost certainly crushing them still yes?
>>555351437no
>>555350623this < but ai stacks giving me free money tbhdesu
>>555350623I don't mind the money cheats but something broke in me in my last campaign so I mod out their retarded attrition immunity and replenishment buffs from now on
>>555350623Having infinite money off just 1 settlement and 10+ recruitment slots will do that. The secret is just to farm the AI's stacks for gold until you have a big enough bank that you can dip negative for a while with an extra army, then just bruteforce the AI's recruitment settlement. Once you put it under siege and their fountain of units is shut they just crumble.
>>555342498Why couldn't that fag just talk about that with friends and family and not make a fool out of himself in front of his viewers by parroting online slogan-speak
>>555282625Singlecels don't like total war, they just want to watch the AI suicide into their front line so they can do ebin hammer and anvil over and over
>>555282625>>555353336I actually like watching multiplayer but you're still an intolerable faggot.
>no, you can only have 12 mutalisks
>>555353489I only used 12 as a kid because that was the maximum you could select at a time.
>>555353542Fond memories of BWsissies pissing and shitting themselves over every other RTS gradually adopting quality of life improvements like being able to zoom out or select more than 1/16th of your army cap at a time because "micro is skillcap"
>>555353489It's to make it so things aren't a snoozefest for both the players and viewers anon.
>>555353542Well you better be sending them straight into a wall of turrets and science vessels or else you'll get disqualified for not attacking
>>555353960games with actual design for 1v1s don't need several pages of houserules to do that, the internal rules of the game itself are enough
>>555353990I won't defend this though. This rule doesn't need to exist and does nothing but look stupid.
>>555354123Agreed. Total war isn't really designed with that in mind though.
>>555354173>nooooooo you have to allow me to cheese kite you LEGEND SAID SO LEGEND SAID SO
>>555354173It does need to exist. Because most units move forward and backwards at the same speed, there's nothing preventing a player from kiting forever, hiding their army in the copious forests on every map and stalling for time, corner camping or just making a noob box on some highground.There's really no counter to corner camping except to know that your opponent will corner camp and bring a comp tailored to beating it, which some factions don't even have access to. The other options aren't necessarily meta but they would permit someone to essentially make the game not a game anymore and waste 40 minutes on a 5 minute battle.Incidentally you can play for time in singleplayer, since the time limit expiring is a win condition for the defender, and it just breaks the campaign.
>>555354281Maybe stop him from doing that?
>>555354281>>555354697The domination game mode itself makes this rule unnecessary. Engaging in such tactics does not hold a point.
>>555354697Which is why strategy games designed for 1v1 put limited resources on a map so the attacker can attrit the defender and why tactics games designed for 1v1 put objectives and victory points on the map that you need to control or lose, thus giving hit and run delaying moves a place but not game winning on their own.But MPfags even rejected domination at first, crying and whining that land battles with their insane houserules were better. Hell, they might still think that way for all i know, i stopped paying attention shortly after metafags bitched that a bunch of khorne hounds and harpies got countered by rat summons so too many summoners should be banned.
how many times per campaign do you awakening of the wood your infantry because you confuse it for the healing spell
Where even is this stupid shit you dug up to seethe about from>>555353990Who cares
>>555355341Never. Also I only bother with life magic on sem heavy armies so should I ever make that mistake it's harmless.
>>555353489Sounds mostly reasonable, prevents cheese>sorcerer on warshrine and plagueridden and 18 chosen
>>555355341magic is cheating anyways

Found a mod that gives Karl Franz extra tech to research, that is all the tech from the non amethyst unit upgrades from Elspeth. Costs gold and prestige so not broken.Playing on the old world and by turn 20 I have barely secured the Reikland with rats and orcs and beastmen everywhere.Middenland down to one settlement out of a dozen, Ostermark gone, Nordland nearly dead, Ostland crumbling to 2 different undead and nurgle scottish guy. Hochland fortifying their capital and squatting in it. Talabecland doing ok but mostly because I took all the pressure off their east by returning 4 settlements and wiping out the rats.South is fine, Stirland about to fall to vamps. I have 3 armies and 2 are trying to save Middenland and then recover Nordland.Knowing I have the flexibility (And firepower) by the time Archaon instantly confeds all of Chaos and Norsca and wanders down with his million stacks is making my Empire campaign fun. I hope I can tard wrangle the Empire then roll over Marienburg and recreate the Westerland Elector state BEFORE the World War begins - but I doubt it.There are at least 6 different rat clans alone shitting up the Empire, and I have only (mostly) wiped out one.
>>555355995>yfw durthu comes barreling out of nowhere just to fuck you over
Domination is way cooler than just fighting
>oh no a bunch of SEMs
Drawfags draw something!
>>555356376>just precognitively draft the perfect counterarmy BROSmh
>>555356286I am playing the Old World. Durthu is as far from me right now as Altdorf is from the Fey Enchantress in vanilla and he is surrounded by enemies.
>>555356376>>555356621I gotchu bro
This is nothing more than a game of conflictmallet!

>>555357504We didn't have his back...
>>555357504why do people like parrots that thing in the pic looks so retarded and the ones that repeat stuff are annoying, it stops being funny fast
>>555357639I will welcome 40k newfriends because they won't know who Legend is.
>>555357796This. They should get better birds
>>555356621Is bringing zero ranged units and anti large units of any kind a common practice of yours?
first time i see cathay not being pink and its because i need the fucking tree, its always slaneesh here
>>555358038stupid slutty Miao Ying...
>>555357796Idk, the lyre bird in Australia is pretty neat, it can mimick any sound, including chainsaws, crying babies and plastic toy laser guns.
