Thanquol soon, friends!
They can't release the next Total War title until both Ind and Khuresh are opened up.
>Cathay news in "a few weeks"
There should be alt skins for LL.I'll pay $10 for a naked Kroq-Gar and Gor-Rok skin
>>556269792kill yourself.
>>556268447They are probably waiting for Chinese new year.
Cathay gets 2 DLCs whilst Kislev only gets 1 DLC.Did they forget that Kislev is the protagonist faction of Warhammer 3?
>>556269792I dunno about naked Lizardmen but they could absolutely sell skins based on ancient models.

'Well?' Sevatar prompted. 'You said you wished to speak to someone present for the Devastation of Zoah.'The Night Lord knocked his knuckles lightly against his breastplate.'I was there. So speak.'Ulatal cleared his throat. 'I don't know if I should file these reports. The Thousand Sons cast our Legion in a… negative light.'Sevatar still hadn't relinquished the data-slate. 'That they do,' he agreed. 'Though it would hardly be the first report to do so. Who filed this miserable poetry?''An officer listed as "Khayon of the Khenetai", who belongs to something called "The Order of the Jackal". He's cited as captain of the warship Tlaloc.'Sevatar shrugged, the barest movement of his shoulders. 'Never heard of him. I couldn't tell you if he was there or not. I paid little attention to the Thousand Sons junior officers at Zoah. They all tended to whine in the same way. They blurred in my memory after a while.'He paused, reflecting for a moment. ' "Order of the Jackal". "Khenetai". What amusing titles the other Legions use.'A strange insult, Ulatal thought, from a man known as the Prince of Crows.Sevatar's stare was sudden and bestial. Not aggressive, but undeniably animal. Something that might almost pass for a smile infected its way across those scarred lips, inch by inch.He hears me. Ulatal felt an icy prickle along his spine. Emperor's blood, he can hear me.
>>556269792We will get that in 40KBut besides that..Why not just use mods? A lot of LLs have reskin mods
>>556271646GW writers are the best in their field
Why does the campaign map have such shitty performance?Why?I genuinely do not understandThere's little to no real detail to note. Yea, it has some trees and bushes here and there, but it's mostly textures. I cannot comprehend how I can get a stable framerate in large combat situations with hundreds of moving models, but the campaign map, four years after release, still chugs the moment you explore more than two provinces. Any cheats to sort this shit?
>>556272723it simulates the whole population

>>556273885In a bad way, the author's execution leaves a lot to be desired.>In the end, to really stir the pot, I wanted to end the story in a way that, while Uriah might have been wrong, he was the one you liked better and who came out with the apparent moral high ground. The Emperor was right, yet he came across as the arrogant, short-sighted tyrant – the very kind he rails against in the story. Now go back and read it again and see if you agree!https://graham-mcneill.com/last-church/
>>556271914epstein pedophile which makes GW epstein-affilliated by association
>>556271007Cathay's apparently more popular, especially Zhao Ming for whatever reason??

>>556275192What Warpstone radiation does to a motherfucker.
>>556274869>The Emperor was rightBut the setting contradicts this. The Chaos gods feed off emotion regardless of worship. Eldar didn't directly worship Slaanesh, they didn't worship any gods at that point (apart from Craftworlders who fucked off) yet that still supercharged Slaanesh into awakening as a Chaos god. Meanwhile, religion can 'steal' such energy from Chaos. Orks are some of the most violent retards in the setting, yet Khorne gets 0 power from them, since they channel their energy to GorkaMorka via their faith in them, same goes for SoB and with the Emperor. Tau got a godess of the Greater Good despite not being religious etc.The author doesn't understand the setting if he thought that was Emps being right, Emps was right in the sense that humanity needs to unite and put humanity first, he was wrong about atheism being a means to fight chaos. Plus his lying to his Primarchs about Chaos was what lead to the Horus Heresy and Chaos getting some of te most powerful fighting forces and individuals in the galaxy
>>556275358I heard about that GameTheory guy doing that, why did he do that, QRD?
>>556273703>cute girl>incel chud>reddit memehard choice
>>556271707You're right anon, I should enable Lewd Lizards mod for the next campaign. Thank you
>>556275956>retard hag>hot-head monk>based monkeyyeah, hard choice
>>556275775I agree, but that's just the issue with the Horus Heresy Series in general, you have a dozen writers that have different ideas about how the Big E is supposed to be portrayed. And it's not helping that GW also implied the whole heresy was actually planned all along, it's stupid.
>>556276119>>retard hagbit what if I love retarded hags?
>>556273885Both Big E and the priest were caricatures of a dumb reddit atheist fedora tipper and a low IQ american evangelitard tier fundieThe Emperor was supposed to be a hyper intelligewnt perpetual, compare his potrayal in Master of Mankind to The Last Church, night and fucking day. Pure character assassination.A dumb author can't write smart characters well nor a subject he knows nothing about and what >>556275775 & >>556276262 said regarding the plot, different fags shove their ideas in without any regard for consistency.

>>556271914>>556276906That author is single-handedly keeping the world-that-was alive with the only 2020s Warhammer fantasy book. He updated Bretonnia to be less problematic by deleting the patriarchy and canonizing female soldiers. Please show respect.

>3 factions got all the souls before medude what the fuck
>>556277584So does this mean that Bretonnia used to be woke and progressive then sometime between Old World and Fantasy they became huge chuds?

Slayer (armored)
>>556286502it ain't right
>>556286349For me it's Drinaz fa Zharr Naggrund, Drazh thaumancy zharr and Hashut zaraz gorm, truly words to smack the Ork by
>>556286502CA should've coded the game so that if you attempt to put on any item with armor on a Slayer Lord or Hero they refuse it.
>>556286868That's what you get for letting Slayers lords/heroes equip Armor items
What the fuck is wrong with Chaos Dwarfs?
>>556287787see >>556287326, but instead of orcs, it's the chinamen.
>NOOOOOO YOUR SUPER EXPERIENCED SLAYER LORD SHOULD BE KILLED BY A T0 GOBLIN SPEARMEN

>>556286502It's just armor runes etched into their skin
>>556271007War in Ukraine really nipped in the bud nu-Kislev, GW did nothing with them, even in TOW.
>>556290223yeah I strongly suspect the war really nuked any potential for Kislev since they went way deeper on russian aesthetics (BEARS BEARS BEARS BEARS BEARS BEARS BEARS BEARS BEARS BEARS BEARS BEARS) rather than more broad eastern european
>>556289230This but unironically
>Skaven>starting near ChaosPain, desu.

>>556290380>"Okay, we need to refresh Kislev for TOW, any ideas ?">"Bears, Tzar guard, bears, dah Motherland, bears, dah Tzarina, bears.">"Is it a good idea to lean so heavily towards Russia tropes?">"Hey, as long as Russia doesn't do anything stupid between now and 2022 ..."
Mind explaining why I'm fighting Norsca as Bretonnia on Bretonnian shores in front of Brettonia settlement and I get a fucking High Elf map?
so i had a 3 month breakdid 40k kiddies leave?
>>556292227see >>556271646
Having to defeat enemies that live in the Chaos Wastes is profoundly one of the most unfun things without a mod that gets rid of the climate penalties or allows adaptation to the climate.
>>556267847Why is so FUCKING COOL. Goddam his drip is immaculate.
>>556292670He looks like he'd murder you for your lunch money.
They should have made cylostra count as large.
>>556293209>countI read that as cuntworks too desu
>>556292104Asur lands.
>>556292104Bretonnia is build on the ruins of the old kingdom Malekith ruled. It's full of elven ruins.
>>556292670
>>556295420So I read the full fight breakdown on the Warhammer wiki and why is Lokhir able to regenerate from getting his face half cut off? Is that some part of his lore I'm not aware of?
>>556295697it's his red blades, in game they give him regen while in meleedesu lokhir is not a very good fighter either way, whether on foot or on dragon
>>556295697Lokhir wasn't wounded in the fight at all. Much less getting his face cut. Also the helmet despite what it does in game is actually cursed on the tabletop. It causes fear instantaneous fear in his wearer if he ever looses his nerve. It's not a regenerative item at all. Each turn Lokhir has to pass a fear test on the tabletop to remain on the field. This was a purposeful handicap put on him because he was the best duelist character in the game and could attack as many times in his turn as long as he hit anyone with his last attack which lead to him just running through the table killing everything on a good roll.
d-dogs of war ? ...
bretonnia has crossbowmen?
>>556278407I wanna lighting strike that stack so badly. imagine the payout.
>>556296528Isn't dark elves at 8th edition are just busted in general, in the game assassin hero sucks but in TT it was great even.
this is the first time I have ever seen Boris actually pop off.
>>556292104Bretonnian and Empire lands were former High Elf colonies.The stunties attacked Athel Maraya (Altdorf) first and then everything else.
>>556297461Assassin is great on the TT but not really worth it. Sure he can kill basically anything you want him to but after he does that he is dead as the assassin quite literally appears behind his target when he enters the game meaning he's stranded surrounded form every side. So it's better to just invest in another unit of dark riders(super strong on the TT), Darkshards(cause bitch tears) or a Hydra(quite literally can win the game alone on it's bullshit rules but no one will play with you again after that)
>>556295697https://8th.whfb.app/magic-item/helm-of-the-kraken
/twg/ rejected THIS.
>>556297038Super old edition, but Foot Knights are also for super old edition ...
>>556296528>Lokhir wasn't wounded in the fight at allTrue but that's because the helmet healed him, he had his skull smashed in in the duel.
Now that I know the game is done. I can't get myself hyped up for anything coming to TW3. I will miss the Fantasy ruled /twg/.
>>556299162[He] killed many things
>>556299801His scalp paid the price for it.
>>556299162Not pointy ears = no love.Simple as
>>556299801how big was his bald spot at the end? was that a factor in his departure?
>>556299801And his main criticism of it was "hurr durr chariots are too strong". Yeah no shit, getting trampled by a horse isn't something you can walk off form.
>>556299162Why did all the non-Warhammer Total Wars after Three Kingdoms fail?
>>556299893I only like the spicy elves. So TW3 has basically already ended for me.
>>556300762DLC soon Druchiibro!
>>556301310Those artwork are pretty good, but then you also have this >>556277584
>>556301310Elven book is the worst of them added nothing new outside of new plot.
>>556301310A CA-affiliated content creator did confirm that Malekith will be receiving content alongside The End Times.
>>556301545More than 10 years later.
>>556301759Only good thing in all of this is new voiced lines for Mally. Best voice in the game and it's not even a contest.
>>556301310End Times need a sequel...
Just made up a new faction>Male ElvesInvestors??
>>556302207But that's Age of Sigmar!
>>556301717
>>556302207
>>556302756What's even the point. Malekith doesn't even have half of his abilities from the base game. If anyone thinks they will actually make him immortal when he's moving you are insane.
>>556301545
>Bretonnia mentioned
>>556303847>Glotkin, Felix, Manlet and Malekith get two covers>Gotrek gets three>Fagash only oneWEAK
>>556303847Left to right:Mannfred, Mannfred, Beastman, Nagash, Gotrek and Felix and ThroggGlottkin, Glottkin, Crone Hellebron, Malekith, MalusMalekith, Verminlord, Gotrek, Gotrek and Felix and Be'lakor, Archaon
>>556303847>chris wraightDidn't know that he wrote an ET book
Why does Slaanesh have a claim over all elven souls? I understand why it happened in 40k, but why does it happen in fantasy as well?
>>556273703Vote!
>>556304308It doesn't. They don't go to Slaanesh automatically. Slaanesh in Fantasy has to fight for the souls with the Elven gods. And elves that are devoted to Ereth Khial go to her and no amount of Slaanesh crying can stop that(not that going to Ereth Khial is better than Slaanesh).
>>556304308Because 40k and WFB share the same cosmology, and the actions of the Eldar impacted the Elves as they are the same species with the same gods.
>>556304308Slanny doesnt have the sole claim on elves in fantasy. She just enjoys their souls more than others because elves are more emotional.
the future is now old man, time to felt this unc
>>556305349is daniel better in roc than in immortal empires or is it just all suffering
>>556305349>I'm sorry you feel that way OLD MAN!
Would Drycha get along with Lizardmen? As much as Drycha can get along with anything that doesn't have leaves.
>>556304308No that's 40k lore. In 40k Slaanesh is a elven god and devoured all the other gods so it gets their souls but in Fantasy it has to fight for them and the obsession it has with elves is due to Aenarion humiliating N'kari.
>>556305508idk man its my first time ever in this game mode, i played warhammer for 170 hours and i never even touched the main campaign
>>556305680Drycha is chaos tainted by Morghur(like most of the living trees in Athel Loren). So no, the liggers would want to destroy her.
>>556303515>>556302638No, I meant like WHFB:2, with the Empire from WW1
Next is wood elf dlc with the bladesinger(lord), bladesinger(hero) and bladesinger(wife)
>>556306107That's a lot of bladesingers.
>>556306107sqvire stop coping
>>556305890Oh shit, didn't know that. This means I should be playing her as some kind of Dark Woke Drycha. Interesting. Does this open the door to a green-green alliance between Drycha and Nurgle? Many are asking this.
>>556306107My redhead wife
Hello /twg/I really love Skarbrand.Thanks
>>556306107>wood elf>gives you wood
>>556306379Drycha is more like tree supremacist, thoughbeit.
>>556306738Did you know that Skarbrand has the highest melee attack in all of Total War?
>>556306756
>>556306831Not even that, she wants to kill Ariel and Orion presumably because Morghur's taint is pushing her to seeking revenge on them.
>>556306379Drycha doesn't like chaos either, she'll just use anything to get back coeddil and return the forests to what they were before the civilized peoples came.
>>556306893Yes.I think I managed close to 300
>>556306987She's part of the "the alliance with the elves was a mistake" camp that a portion of the older spirits of athel loren supported.
What's the ideal melee to ranged unit ratio? I feel like I never have enough units to cover my rear from cavalry/chariot.
>>556306893
>>556306107Give me Naieth.
ok so AR thought this would be a solid lossbut how would you actually win this playing as the vampire count garrison?
>>556306107Would beastmen rape them?
>>556307298Nah, I'd win.
>>556306107Black beastbaby factoriesBretonnians jerk off to BEASTED.com where they watch elf whores stuff dark beastmeat in every hole
>>556307290There's no universal answer to that question there are too many variable, i will say however that infantry(yes even spears) is awful at stopping chariot, even the lower mass ones can just drive through them quite easily, keep cavalry/cheap monsters near your ranged troops and use that instead
>american hours>every other post is cuckshit
>>556307290This is right or wrong specific to your build seriously. You can go rats with almost no melee. But anyway you can use a cav/monsters to stop enemy cav if you dont want to use a boring troops
>>556307413go out of the walls and let the towers and my units do the damage
>>556308137They're a strange people.
>>556309126>t.
>>556307413No way to win this. Too strong single nodels
>>556267847What was the fantasy world like before the old ones showed up? What races didn’t they make? Was it just a planet of chaos monsters? Are there other planets?
>>556307298
>>556310431It was apparently a lot colder in general and had a single continent, but the world was generally populated with dragons, fimir, the various dinosaurs you see in lustria and the southlands, toad dragons, the dragon ogres, kharibdyss and other such stygian horrors, minotaurs, the spirits of the forests, and the intelligent skytitans in the mountains and cathayan dragons.Humans, elves, lizardmen, gnomes, halflings, dwarfs and ogres were all made by the old ones. Greenskins weren't made by the old ones but arrived in a giant asteroid that struck the planet and they never managed to exterminate them. Skaven obviously came much later as twisted descendants of either men or rats but weren't made by the old ones.
>>556307048So really she should have a roleplay aversion of like -500 to every other race.
how do I deal with Archaon AND kholek as Tamurkhan in the early stages of the campaign? Archaon tends to declare war right as I'm finishing off Kholek or during. My military buildings usualyl haven't cycled enough. And no I don't have the champions of chaos units.
>>556307413Bumrush everything you have but the basic skeletons to tarpit them outside the walls, then park the skeletons on the towers to make sure they're firing. Ghouls and Black Knights might make the difference in keeping the spears and Grave Guard alive long enough to let the towers kill them. At least that would be my strat. Not sure if it would work though.
>>556311687She has a really strong obsession with freeing coeddil and will cooperate with(use as a meatshield) anyone that could aid her in her goal. After that though, she'd probably just be following his lead and trying to genocide literally everything that isn't a tree or woodland animal.
>>556312236the walls were set up in such a way that if the fight is concentrated in one area you have at most one tower shooting at a time, there were 4 towers in total
>>556304078>Random beastman got as much cover than Nagash>Random beastman got as much cover than Archaon
>>556312054Declare war against all minor factions the other AIs are fighting and Archaon will never bother you. Then go smash grimgor.
>>556306680OUR wife.
>>556312608Is this because archaon likes warmongers or something?>grimgorI've never had issues with him strangely and he usually gets taken out by Astragoth or greasus. I have to race them to take over grimgor's territory
>>556313178No.. it's a simple game mechanic. The game checks every few rounds how many wars you got going on and rates it against your strength.. if it thinks you are not having enough shit to deal with it gives you more shit to deal with so it forces a random AI faction to declare war on you, even if they like you.So if you declare war on some no name AI factions, some goblins or shit.. maybe the starting enemies of Sayl and the Chorfs, or he green ogre facions souh of you, the game checks, sees u are in 5 wars rn and leaves you be. Those factions will ofc never threaten you and be wiped out by other AI factions.
>>556310431World of ice.Dragons.Dino (some ?)Dragon-Ogres.Fimirs.Drachenfels' specy.Zoats.Mammoths .
>>556313178>Is this because archaon likes warmongers or something?Offering close AI to join their wars against minor/distant factions is something you should always do for diplomacy bonus.
>>556299162nuh uh
>>556304308Its just something they added in 8th edition.
>>556312594>Random beastmanBe polite to the (canon) father of the Tzarina's baby.
>>556300616>Thrones of Britannia (can't remember if it came out before or after 3K)They basically just removed feature after feature and called it an improvement. Also yet another game reusing the same base as Rome 2.>Three KingdomsPissed off the chinese playerbase, did a bunch of stupid "just the vanilla game but starting at an ever so slightly different date" DLCs, eventually players just turned away from it even though the game had actually been successful from launch.>TroyThe stupid "Truth behind the myth" shit killed it.>PharaohFew people are actually interested in Bronze Age warfare or politicking. It's outside the scope of interest of the general public.
Why haven't GW killed Slaanesh yet?Have a cool guy faction of Eldar rise up and kill him in 40kThe effect would apply in Old World too that's how dying gods work. Very fitting for today's sex negative youth.
>>556314968Truth Behind The Myth was the funniest thing
>>556315386>Why haven't GW killed Slaanesh yet?They tried in Age of Sigmar, the chud crowd raged long and hard enough they begrudgingly didnt write them out of the setting
I was surprised how much I enjoyed Troll King with the Norse changes.
>>556316884I wish they had the balls they had for end times. Just .. fuck the fans, you all know nothing, archaon is chad and wins, here a shitty story about how ur fav character fell off a bridge and died cause I don't care, dilate.. I wanna see the horned rat become the mega god, not stupid slaanesh.
>>556315386They gave it an attempt but then someone who was above 95iq pointed out that excess means more than tits and dicks
>>556318792they literally did all this stuff dude, its age of sigmarand it sucks
>>556318894I know, that's what I'm saying they should do again but with slaanesh. He is just banished and apparently meant to free himself in the future.I want em to shit on slaanesh and the fans and perma kill him.
>>556318894It still feels insane yet so on brand for GW to have AoS and then after all that was ended and discontinued, make the Old World. I guess at a plus the rarer shit being in production isn’t terrible. Always wanted to kitbash the sphinx guys

Do a lot of giant units have basic sync animations it they battle each other? I watched a fight between a Ghorgon and Necrosphinx and they kept entering this position where they back up a bit before they both attack each other. I've seen this with Giants fighting other large units.

The rest of those are short stories published only digitally and only later added to omnibus. The "cover" is just a picture taken from the ET book with a logo and a title added to it.
>>556307290If flankers are a problem you generally want at least 1 heavy (preferably AP & Anti-Large) cavalry on both flanks. Its much easier to catch them than trying to protect your flanks with infantry. Heavy cav also has enough mass to stop chariots, which are a pain to stop even with braced infantry due to AI movement cheats.

anyone know how to get cream API working right now for TWWH3 immortal empires? Had to do a fresh install and completely forgot about how all of this shit worked. Tried to do a new install (swapping the steamapi_64_o.dll" bullshit stuff and putting in that custom creamAPI.ini thing) but i swear there was some sort of executable that I had to run the last time I got this working? Probably my third time setting it up but it's been so long I don't remember exactly how the process went, and I swear i originally learned from a sticky that was posted somewhere here that I can't find now.

>>556358302>>556358534>>556358775Is defending outside the walls with your archers on the walls shooting the better tactic?
>>556358187Why would you not have any zombies in the zombie focused lordPeople enjoy it because its funny to see the enemy army slowly melt against the brickwall
>>556359686because its sleep inducing
>>556359119Depends on the exact situation.I mean, for Bretonnia, your choices are either sacrifice the peasants and dismounted troops on the wall in hopes of tiring the enemy out before they have to enter the town, or "Ride out with me, ride out and meet them."I have often used chaff troops for this purpose: defending under the wall so the enemy has to spend more time fighting in tower range.
Checking in, have they reworked sieges yet?
>>556361095cant rework it. its an integral part of the game, changing means making a new game
ngl slaneesh UI looks pretty good i love it
>>556359119It depends on the situation. Enemies climbing the walls tires them out. You can also fight the tired troops more effectively if you man the walls, since they trickle up slowly, letting your units locally outnumber them for a while. Your archers can also shoot them as they scale the wall, as they dont move forward before everyone has climbed the ladder.I usually make a rough plan along the following logic: 1) If I have very tanky or tarpitt-y infantry + lots of ranged, I'll have them tank in front of the walls. This maximizes tower uptime (which are ridiculously good on higher tiers) and lets your ranged shoot over your tarpit2) If I have lots of high-damage melee units I'll keep them just behind the archers and use them to defend the walls once tarpit dies. If they have high enough damage they'll keep killing models before next one climbs up, keeping enemy in forever local 5v1 situation, letting them slaughter hundreds of foes. 2.2) If I dont have high damage melee troops, I order my archers to fall back as soon as the tarpit dies. Proper melee infantry waits on the streets, protecting them and letting them shoot the enemies slowly trickling up to the walls
>>556361095They are still working on them, unfortunately they only posted this "update" in their discord.
>>556361438>nglwhy would you lie in the first place?
>>556354056Plague monks should definitely be dropped down a tier. Their tier doesnt justify their power, especially with weapon teams and Throt DLC monsters being so much more powerful at similar tiers. Also I think Plague Monks could use some sort of gimmick. Currently their only use case is flavor since they are glass cannons without the cannon part.
>>556363035It is one of the many phrases that has become a casualty to the disease of "losing its meaning by becoming as a term of emphasis".
>>556353818For hero choice: alchemists are the utility option. They have +mobility, but Lore of Metal has less super strong AoE AP blob nukes (Chain Lightning > Hounds, Comet > Searing Doom). Astromancer has better expensive "delete this/thede units RIGHT NOW" options. Also Cathay lacks strong duelist units until T5 Terracotta Sentinels if you dont bring Celestial General (which mog even Archaon when leveled up), so skipping Shugengan is always an option. Sure, Wall of Wind&Fire is ridiculously good against low armor chaff factions like AI skaven and early Norsca, but once elites roll into field its gonna be Celestial General + spellcaster hero, where you're going to pick either "pretty good nukes + mobility" alchemist or "great nukes + Harmonic Convergence to autowin any melee duel + Curse of Midnight Wind to neuter melee frontline" spell-maxxing Astromancer. Both have their uses, Cathay has very good and flexible options.
>>556362909For the dudes responsible for Attila's sieges it must be so miserable trying to salvage the mess that is the entire fucking lineage of Warcraft sieges.
>>556364151they got it so right in attila, that the sieges were praised, they had the winning formulawhy then take so many steps back and fuck up warhammer's siegesCA just don't make any sense

>>556365493>>556364297Warhammer dev team is one of the most heterogenous there is. Sound effect team is beyond fantastic (from HALBEDIERRS to Zhatan da Brajj you can hear pretty much any faction in your head), while the music team produces mostly unmemorable garbage. Graphics team is awesome: most maps are ridiculously detailed. The programming and development teams should've been fired yesterday. Tons of bugs, unmaintainable spaghetti code, 90% of existing mechanics scrapped and new mechanics almost never amount to more than "open window and select option to receive buffs".
>>556367329It's been well documented that the recurring issues with CA's spaghetti code and technical debt isn't talent issue, but a leadership one.SEGA is largely allergic to investing in technical development. CA's leadership feared if they spent too much of SEGA's money on development environment stuff, SEGA would turn and tell them "It would be cheaper if we just license UE3/4/5 for you" and effectively end any modicum of CA's creative independence.Thus since roughly Napoleon, CA has been allergic to investing time or money into technical development except where they can write it off (ie graphical improvements via 3rd party contracts). There have been other issues compounding this but basically over time the number of issues have accumulated with nobody being allowed to sit down and fix things, and as time advances the issues become more entangled and more difficult to fix.But they apparently ARE working on a new engine explicitly endorced by SEGA so it seems the Hyenas scare finally got them out of their rut.>>556364297Attila was done by Sophia, while Warhammer was handled by the main London studio. The London team made the explicit decision to pare down and simplify sieges, likely in the interest of making siege map development quicker and simpler.But then they made 'make sieges good' an explicit goal of WH3's release, failed, and then spent the next several years attempting and failing to rework them. While Sophia has been brought on to handle WH3 development as the main team moves on to 40k and M3, I don't doubt for a second that part of the reason behind the changing of hats was passing the seemingly unsolvable siege problem to the only team to have successfully shipped a siege design in the past 12 years.
>>556369883>Attila was done by SophiaWRONG!they also don't have a London team, it's Horshamall that writing to prove you know fuck allstupid cunt
anyone got the image of the various barbarian tribes covered in shit dancing, flinging dung and fucking infront of a gate while a Roman sentry looks onthink theres a high elf/dark elf edit of it too but I cant find either

I love this dude. Him getting new voicelines when he's king is just great.
>>556371248I like it when CA adds new voice lines for certain contextual actions.Lots of Warhammer 3 generic lords and heroes will talk about legendary lords when they are nearby on the campaign map. I always remember playing Kislev after the update and the Druzhina would talk directly to Katarin.
>>556370420correct, Sofia first got to work on the last pieces of rome 2 DLC, released after Attila

>>556372761
>>556379039Just use console command then
>>556375842suppichud general
>>556369883Keep in mind, except in cases where talent doesn't exist (silversmiths in most modern American cities, to give an example), a crisis of talent is usually a symptom of a crisis of leadership.
>>556369883>Make sieges goodThe issue here seems to be on development team to be honest. They already had a template for "good" sieges (multi-layered defenses in earlier games), but it seems their rework doubled down on what didnt work (making the hated narrow street city part larger and adding tower defense turrets). They had working slightly less worse and much-less complained working examples after WH2 as well: 3K sieges had narrow streets right after main walls but large final square with few chokepoints, giving defending players time to regroup and make last stand effectively even if half of their forces had been spent defending the walls. Troy in Odyssey similarly gave time to fall back to secondary position. The major issue with current sieges is that after losing the walls you're forced into swiss cheese hell with gazillion routes to each point (and around them) so your spent forces either scramble to fall back to the next minor point (unsuccesfully because there's tons of flanking routes and your units get just as swamped as the enemy because its narrow junctions all the way back) or to the final defense point (which also has tons of entry points and you get fucked by Momentum mechanic where losing too many minor locations makes enemies get dozens of buffs letting them steamroll you)
>>556372831AoW4 is such a soulless husk it's actually not surprising they will be milking it to death. I hate paradox so much.
>>556376148Skill issue.>Early game is 90% unarmored infantry vs unarmord infantry, letting their chariots punch above their weight>Midgame you get Ushabti and Tomb Scorpions, letting mainline win midgame infantry battles>Lategame its construct steamroll galoreSounds to me you're either getting filtered by the one difficult enemy (skarbrand) or you're trying to do the tired old meme of holding out with t1 stack until t5 then doomstacking, which just doesnt work with TK. You gotta actually utilize strengths of each tier to their maximum.
>>556380686>UshabtiShit units, hopelessly powercrept.
>>556381404*Shoots you from 255 metres away*
>>556381404More ushabti variants would be coolwitb halberds, shield etcI want an ushabti only army
>>556381404And the Skelemanii havent? To improve your combat performance it doesnt have to be best, it has to be better. Like I though, obvious skill issue where you refuse to use higher tier units before T5 doomstack units, then complain your t0 free skelemanii arent cutting it.

>>556375809>Slaaneshi/Nurgle hybrid lord that spreads demonic STDs
>>556387719Hot.
>>556380232The issue is complicated because siege mechanics directly interact with the campaign layer.In previous games with more successful siege design, you either bring artillery that can knock down walls but has limited ammo, or you spend a turn or 2 besieging on the campaign map to construct siege equipment.But WH's campaign design explicitly emphasizes NOT sitting there besieging a settlement, which makes siege equipment awkward to implement. And since artillery has infinite ammo, you either allow it to trivialize all fortification or you go the Empire/Napoleon route and make it so comically ineffective against fortification that you just sit there for 20m on fast forward while it slowly knocks down walls and towers. Obviously, introducing ammo mechanics to existing WH artillery is like the worst solution possible.And in addition to that, most siege maps were designed for how sieges worked in WH1, and significant changes to siege mechanics would necessitate going back and updating or replacing maps. Map art and assets is a really major part of any TW game's production pipeline so it's not trivial to update or completely replace the maps that don't play nice.This hems them into trying to make siege mechanics work within the confines of most of the established maps and mechanics, which is just doomed to make something that feels like what we already had and continue to piss people off.
>>556388798Warhammer's campaign design is trash. They got rid of just being able to leave some troops in the settlement because of an infinite movement glitch from a lot of games ago that they didn't just fix already

Moreover, the Empire is about to launch what is arguably the most advanced rockets in history.

what missle unit do you usually spam as empire? the long rifles or the ironsides

HUGE NEWS!Clio, and Lumi's company inexplicably decided to kill itself today. We know both are doing voice work for CA, and it's likely that at least one other Phase talent is too. Don't be surprised if CA point to this as an excuse for more delays.

Is this ever really worth it? Physres is cool and all but>flying mount so you can juke archers>caster so you're not 1v1ing air units, you run to blunderbusses insteadThe other option is spell cooldown reduction
>>556372831I pirated that game because>10 niggorillion dollars worth of DLCBut I quite like AoW4I beat grexolis on the hardest difficulty 4 different times to prove a point to myselfOnly thing I got kind of disillusioned with is how... there's really not that much varietyI was trying to play some kinda reaver bugmen last time and I realized slowly that a lot of your choices feel kind of samey, but then again I've played a fuckton of it
>>556348796Do you have matched combat animations installed?I remember I was having an issue with Kislev after ToT dropped where none of the Kossars would shoot. Turns out that was the issue.
>>556348796>>556480582Not only that, apparently the Reloding Animations mod can fuck up ranged units since at least 7.0 but probably even before

I'm going to play medieval 2 for the first time. What's an easy faction? I was thinking Turkey
>>556483497Haven't played since forever but I think England was pretty easy
>>556478727>Only thing I got kind of disillusioned with is how... there's really not that much varietyYeah late game in a lot of cases culture unique units and strategies get shifted out in favor of stacking Vs and IVs from tomes.Sure max lvl &enchanted/racemorphed tier 1-3 units can be useful late game, but a max lvl 4s & 5s will outdo them.
>>556483798Not exactly, actually. A lot of tier 5s are role-specialized so spamming them makes no sense, tier 4 units sure though, although it also depends on what kind of build you're making (it's good to swap for transmuters or geomancers so you can have a tier 4 battlemage sure yeah but... if you're cult of death or mystic potential your base casters have some really good abilities)What I meant by my post is how a lot of units are just the same unit but slightly different, at some point you're kind of playing the same game overall regardless of if your frontline is warbreeds or bastions, IdkAgain, it's probably burnout, but an archer is an archer is an archer, regardless of what special skill they have, IMO. This might be why animals are one of my favorite types of units since they're usually more diverse.
What is /twg/'s wishlist for future AoW4 DLC?
>>556484878Expanding upon eldritch scions (never gonna happen (their customization options are really limited and they're kind of barebones in changing up your gameplay compared to other special rulers)), water DLC (please please please we have tide elementals please), archer DLC (there is no archer in the game above tier 3)
>>556484878More gunpowder.
>>556483497>TurkeyFuck no.Unless you love horse archer spam and cheese like mad for the first 50 turns.>EasiestEngland due to location and longbowmen are OP>Next easiestMilan due to start position, pavisse crossbows and surrounding politicsScotland is ok if you rush the English and wipe them early.France is not too bad - better than HRENorman Cav is top tier as Sicily and they start off able to basically recreate the Punic Wars with impunity from anyone north of them.Aztecs basically are ignored mongols and timurids and get to sit in their little slice of land and launch as many European invasions as you want with the AI unable to do anything about it.
>You may not like it, but this is where GW should have taken the Empire with the 30 fucking years of lore constantly hinting at a pre industrial revolution Empire of Man just around the corner.
>>556484878Something for the campaign & roleplay like a religion and/or ideology DLC or maybe a royal court/council/family etc. DLC that expands inter character stuff gives your dudes more presonality.
>>556484878Sea expansion DLC with pirate culture

What precisely makes a unit shatter?I've seen some that die before shattering, I've seen some shatter before they got to 'this unit disbands after battle' model levels.
>>556498409either less than 10 models left of 100 and then broken, scales with unit scale, or broken 3 times.

Should you take diplomatic penalties for letting ally-friends sacrifice-die in battle while you do nothing to help-assist?

>>556504085Fittingly like a pirate
>>556267847Ive narry played a more modern total war, so maybe these are already things, but some things id like for medieval 3:1.Some in between troop replenishment system between medieval 2 and modern. Troops might heal around 1/3 of their numbers naturally if not under seige, but otherwise you do have to consider manual troop logistic routes for larger resupplies. So you dont have to micro manage every little troop, but you should for critical areas.2. Baggage trains: Static or very slow objective marker that you have to defend/attack. Defender might get ammo resupply if they retreat back too it. Maybe its a choice you make between light and heavy baggage train when you make an army. A light baggage train doesnt get involved in battles so you have normal TW battles, but heavier baggage trains maybe give you better troop replenishment, good for longer far off campaigns, but with it as a weak point. Maybe attacking troops have the potential to charge without orders to the baggage train trying to collect booty.3. Certain units can mount/dismount. Think this might have been in Empire. But the tactical possibilities are really intriguing. Heavy knights can dismount to increase thier defensive ability and becoming a grindy force, or mount themselves to loose some defensiveness but increase their impact force. Make it take like 20 seconds so you cant just do it reactively. Same with some archer units like Heavy warbows. Thjose bows being more powerful then normal horse bows, but they can only really fire from dismounted positions.

How do you feel about people ripping total war models and using them in smut animations?
>>556509218That's a good thing!
>>556509218Like what?
>>556509218Sad for them. They are some of the lowest quality models put out by a small Single A company.
>>556509218that's a man in drag
>>556510058They're okay, especially for an RTT.
>>556510179RTT? Rogue Trader Titties?

>>556512603They're Kislev units. They are originally Chaos tainted wolves that the Hags cleansed of Chaos and then bound to their wills. Actually one of Kislevs cooler units, and for once not bound up in the BEARS AND ICE theme.
>>556512087
>>556514140>They're Kislev units.Huh? I mean yeah, as you said at least it's not ice and bears but does a chaos/undead monster really make sense for Kislev?

Are battles slower in SFO
>>556532561yea
>>556531160You will in about 6 or 7 months.
>>556268118You'll unironically get him this year. Stay alive Thanquolanon so your multiyear ritualpost pays off
>>556531160They're an acquired taste imo. blobbing zombies + lodestone corpse carts can help you win almost any battle, especially with ghorst. For settlement management try to expand only where you can take the entire province, otherwise it may be better to raze and ignore for a bit (since you're probably going to get dogpiled). Build only the growth building and rush t3 growth building for +1 global recruit rank to necros letting you get them on lodestone carts, use dirt cheap armies, multiple lords per battle (the initial red skill offers a leadership penalty which stacks with every lord that has it + the dread incarnate trait), only take 1 or two elite units in armies you really care about. eventually you will want some vampire/banshee/wight king heroes, so build those buildings later, early on you can just wait for the event to give you one for free. Battles can get pretty boring, especially sieges with pathfinding issues, but unless you're really screwed with a bad map and specific or overwhelming enemies they're easy to win. Isabella is nice for stacking vamp heroes early, ghorst is ridiculously strong with zombie blobbing, and Kemmler gets very strong (more necro hero xp so send them into athel loren ASAP to farm blood kisses) while also having Krell and weak bretonnians to bash. Mannfred is very fun until you run into Wurrzag spamming waaagh armies that you have to manually resolve and next thing you know you've spent 3 hours on a single endturn fighting huge waves of orcs and gobbos.
If you arent taking Zharr Nagrund as Grimgor off your first WAAAAAGH youre playing his game wrong desu, just ambush stance the Chorfs after a WAAAAAAAGH and if you dont want to fight the army set the difficulty to Easy then AR. Then you can have a fun campaign after that.

Why isn't Chaos - the main antagonist of the setting and the 2nd most popular faction after Imperials and is very relevant to lore (center of stories is chaos vs imperium) not a launch race in Total War 40K??
>>556544717>chaos vs imperiumBut the Imperium is the reason Chaos is so strong?
>>556544717Repostan my post from /crpgg/TL:DR: GW has control over what gets added in 40K media/vidya and they are most likely gonna push Orks since they are rumored 11th ed Starter raceYes. WB were a coincidence. Necrons are getting a stream of updates new models and kill teams, Drukhari got some new shit too.>Night Lords get new minis via Kill TeamAntagonists of Dark Heresy>Corsairs get new shitLarry>Trazyn rumored to be getting a new modelHe's in DLC 3>rumored new CatachansOur RamboEtc.Also big evidence from other games - Credible leaker Valarak says 11th edition starter set and scenario is Orks vs Space Marines (Blood Angels) and both DoW4 and Total War 40K feature Orks and not Chaos as launch factions, even though Chaos is the most popular antagonist. Yrt Orks got most of the screen time in TW:40K trailer fighting marines, while Eldar and Guard barely got any apart from background cameos. DoW4 Orks are also the maain focus alongside Necrons who are getting new shit as I said previously. The stuff that GW needs shilled is ALWAYS front and center.
>>556545663So if GW isn't glazing my favorite faction I can expect it either dead last or not at all in Total War?
Tau will be in total war.
I hear Ratling Guns got nerfed hard, is that true? What do people use now then as main ranged firing line, Jezzails?

>>556560237Higher battle difficulty gives enemy units a flat leadership buff, yes?
>>556560237Damage output too low. Absolutely smash them and they'll run at half life. Also kill lord. And use all those -leadership banners and terror some factions have.Skarbrand and Tamurkhan can route even ironbreakers in one charge
>>556560349Yes!>>556560571I'll kill their lord and get a unit of spearmen to 3 models left and they'll keep fighting until the split second before they die, then they route (and die).Very annoying...
>>556560963Hm.. well have you tried units with terror? They are extremely effective, especially when they are big monsters and hit the rear. Then they get debuff from fear and terror, from stronger enemy nearby and from attacked in rear
>>556561180On the process of doing that just now actually, we'll see.

Mortal empires imrik is a joke compared to this.Just realized juan is in lustria too. If I'm lucky he survives skulltaker long enough for me to find him.. if I can survive the lizards that is.. which I have not managed yet. Still stuck at turn 3
>>556536528I find it rather challenging.
I just completed the dragon and the kraken quest; should I confederate karond kar or take the 5000 gold?
I demand more porn of Valkia and khorne
>>556562238Max autism stat before turn 15
>>556558569I agree. Fingering my ass is super straightthe government love me in particularEveryone loves everyone.Chorfs are a fair and balanced race and the people that play them are fair and balanced people. They make the game so much better.army abilities are the most skilled tactics.
>>556570152I don't know about all that but the 2nd Imperial Panzer Division is currently spear heading the blitzkrieg into Sylvania.Mpfags, cheatsfags, meta fags are mad but I do what I want with my game, including creaming all dlc.
Bruh.. how is anyone supposed to win these fucking battles..Back to turn 1.. I'm trying the "abandon lustria" idea I had and go shit on vamp pirates or whatever. >>556568904I wish I could get her to lvl up but I can't manage than win more than the first battle.
>>556570608>Faggy vampire casts 'raise dead'>I respond with casting 'hit black powder with enough force to creates an explosion and sends a metallic 'Fuck YOU!' at 1500 fpsGet fucked, elf fags. It's Faith, Steel and GUNPOWDER. No magic mentioned anywhere.
>>556570913Kaboom, undead shits.
Borrow Army is such a great feature. Whoever at CA invented that, I just want to say thank you.
SFO is finally out. Who should I play? I was thinking about the dwarves since I haven't played them since TWW2.
Edge kino
>click Drycha>marry a Coeddil!ffs it's too much manjust how much does she love her hyper racist bf
Hell yeah, GIMME DAT HEROIC
>>556570775What is her signature skills in this mod?
>>556573634She summons a huge flying warship like the thundabarge but hers has 3 different modes and it stays forever I think.
Even if CA hates you, I still love you, Demigryph Knights (Halberds).
Fuck it I'm installing SFOWish me luck
>>556575418good duck
started a campaign as gorbad after ages not playing, should i try and rush eight peaks after finishing up death pass or try to let it develop a little more under morglum?
Mmm.. reload autosave, hehehe
>>556577046coward
>>556577364Hm.. I can't seem to get rid of it, no matter how often I reload.
Rat slaughtering is hype
for me it's the linothorax

>>556579820Yin-Tuan should be isekai protag
the guest of the raj mod is cool but christ sake I hate the starting position
>>556579618hoplites are a vibe
>>556580640That's a big shield
>>556580564He's holding the homefront while yinyin is busy getting shat on by lizards.

Nicu
>>556581363I love these random buildings. They are such a minor addition, but adding them has really freshened up the game. I also see them as CA finally realizing that they're doing something stupid and beginning to correct themselves, considering that they weren't even part of the DLC.
>>556580640i thought this was a really big rock and with a small person below it
Biggest boat ever.. YinYin compensating for intelligence.>>556581585I recently got that one that farms bonuses and keeps forever for future campaigns but sadly it was on Ikit and I really didn't feel like farming 20 LL traits..
Does anybody have the "bell curve" of the various factions reacting to the end times, I think? There was, among others, a steaming Harkon in the middle with the caption, "No, you can't destroy the world, I'm living in it!"I can't find it anymore
Now we hunting lizards!
>>556581729fuck, I see it too now
In case anyone tries playing YinYin and also struggles like a motherfucker.. I turn 1 gave my broken starting settlement to the lizards for peace and 4k money, used that to build up my yinyin ship, shat on the Skaven to the right while farming money but declaring war for others nonstop..And for whatever reason.. YinYin's army costs like 30% less while in own territory so don't keep her outside too long cause holy fuck money is nonexistent.And that unkillable crab boss you gotta fight turn 1, just ignore the fucker, kill as many units as possible, get defeated, camp in your in settlement or next to it in ambush and it's free killings.. the fatso can easily be auto resolved. He has like 0 AR power, he never makes a single kill in AR.Took me several reloads and restarts to get to turn 12, heh..
>>556582291
>>556582842are the blue samurais still op?
>>556582929This nigger? They are like bloodletter I guess.. just way faster.
>>556582982so they are bad? Lmao
>>556583076..bloodletter are the best infantry that exists
>>556582867thank you!
>>556583102read bloodthrister weebkun
>>556570775>chink commie tranny can't resist lizard BVLL cockAs intended.
>>556583158Bloodthirster are pretty awesome too. They win every 1v1 against other SEMs.
>>556583370last time I tried them they were dissapointing for their investment
SFO adds a cool ability to Vampire Counts, you can "Raise Dead" on the campaign to add zombies and skeletons to your army. SFO has done it again.
>>556583427When I play khorne I only play Skarbrand and I think he had a skill for them.. maybe that makes a difference. The ROR Bloodthrister has extra ward save and regen so he is amazing. Just sucks at killing shit with 100 units in it.. takes him forever.
These giant carnos are giga aids..
>>556583751blunderbuss victim
>>556583816YinYin doesn't use those.
>>556584076iron hail gunner victim
>>556583462kek the audacity of this mod stealer
>>556584252Also no.. YinYin uses weird pirates which uhh.. well they can't shoot on their own and are kinda like handgunners but anti infantry.. And when they charge they get double range and shoot while moving.. the weirdest unit ever.
>>556584357Strange
This is getting out of control..
>>556584357>banzaiuhmm they are chinese not Japanese
>>556584583I've got these fuckers but not this early. Only now am able to upgrade my dragonship. Takes fucking forever to farm growth points. She never gets dragonguards tho.. unless she global recruits from a settlements.>>556584940The mod introduces Nippon. I got whole nippon over here with samurai and shit.
>my kadai fireborn get molested super quickly even with unbreakableHow do I even use these guysI'm trying
>>556583462if we have raise dead why can't we have raise life
>>556582842tried but the fucking banzai charges raped my cannons
>last time I played was WH II>get the urge to try WHIII>it's in my steam games apparently (never bought it)>use creamapi to get the old dlc factions>it also unlocked the new factionsIs it so easy? Free game!
I haven't felt like playing karl franz since elspeth came out. She makes the good part of the empire, their guns and artillery, so much better
When are they adding slutty Tzeentch bois? I assume with the Egrimm pack.
First time playing Cathay and they have like no growth wtf is this
>>556591382Yin increases growth so just put everything to Yin, then switch to balanced once a province is fully upgraded and Yang for recruitment provinces
>>556591382yeah even with full yin it's not great, I don't remember if it also reduces public order or not. You can quickly reach golden chevron peasants tho. At the end I just conquered shit that was already Tier IV
Infantry seems way better in SFO than in vanilla. They are actually getting kills instead of just being there to soak damage while my ranged do everything
>>556592218>SFO seems way better than vanillayou could have just typed that
>Decide to try Skarsnik>bro you can actually recruit orcs everywhere once you get the right settlementfucking retards
are there female gobbos?
>>556593342real goblins would look like the potatobag goblin from harry potter but green
>>556593548real goblins exist
I almost fucking came in my pants when this turned out to be the map.>4 second reload organ guns w/ entrench, supported by beefed up siege cannonsNot a single enemy made it through the gap.
>>556593676oy vey stop being so anti-semitic!
>>556593342why post that ugly drunky?she gets mogged HARD by the tiefling waifu you know
>>556593687Cant Malk just summon a thunderbarge anyway? It would solo that whole chaos army.
>>556593342There are no female orcs, goblins or squigs in the traditional sense. Being fungus, they're technically not male either, they simply appear masculine.That being said, since greenskins do have stable populations with heritable traits, perhaps it would be possible to selectively breed greenskins in such a way that they could at least appear feminine, just as the chaos dwarfs used a combination of sorcery and selective breeding to create black orcs.
How different do you think Warcore will feel compared to Warscape?
>>556594453it will feel like something that was made to be played on consoles(shit)
>>556590941When TW:AoS comes out.
>>556594561ffs i keep forgetting that tw:40k is a console-first project
>>556593917This animation reminds me of something and I fucking hate it.
>>556594089what if you breed fleslight orcs that eat cum for sustenance
>>556594680So summer? ET is AOS canon.
>>556577883try loading, doing something, saving
>>556594917
I'm excited for 40k.
>>556595515i know you like the ideano need to be ashamed of it
>>556594824The genie from Disney's Alladin?
>>556594917They eat regular food already and I'm pretty sure cum can at least supplement your daily nutrition requirements.There's also probably a squig that can already be used for that even though that's not its original purpose.
>>556594917Can you do this with regular mushrooms?
>>556595818one way to find out!
>>556594917You'd need to breed the violence out of them too, and that'd probably be the most difficult. Otherwise, they'd chomp off your balls to get your cum, since that's both the quickest and the most violent method.
>>556594089>no female orcs
>>556594984ET is bad but it's not AoS bad.
>>556596765That's blood bowl.Blood bowl is a spinoff universe of WHFB, like a joke AU.

>>556587119You mean the first 3v4 battle? I've done that one like 6 times now, only once lost a cannon. Once I simply hit the concede button when shit got mega nasty.>>556595236I did, fucked around with my 2nd army but didn't wanna change the seed. Had nothing major else to do
>>556303847>>556336593>Most of those weren't real covers. They are, stop being pedantic.>Sigmar's Blood wasn't even ET and it reused Mannfred art from the inside of VC armybook.It is ipso facto an ET book; Return of Nagash directly follows up with the SB plot. Plus the Mannfred art was actually used in that novel because of the Campaign book with the same name.
>>556598878making ranged units that do not arc is a fucking pain in this piece of shit game. Whenever a patch of dirt sticks out your units go full retard
>>556600010I know.. the stupid cheapo pirate units I use never fucking shoot.. but they are pretty great in melee. I just play pile of violence with em while the rest stays behind and watches.
>Playing Franz in the old world>Decide to ignore Marienburg kikes since rats, undead, gobbos, beastmen and chaos everywhere.>Secure the North>Secure the East>Secure the South>Secure the entire Empire>Sylvanian war veterans moving south to reclaim old Empire provinces past Black Fire Chasm>Marineburg Kikes go to war with Carroburg and start slurping up their provinces I spent 30 turns fighting beastmemes and gobbos to reclaim and hand back to Carroburg Elector Count.Now my veteran armies filled with rocket batteries and tanks are about fuck up some goober dutch kikes and their silly paddle boat oar spearmen from the SCM Marienburg mod. I have 10 turns to do so before the world is set on fire with every single end game event triggering. At least the dwarfs and Kislev are intact only have rats in Zhufbar and west of Solland.
>>556596901Is that fat disgusting slob washing his guts and ass in the river?For all eternity??Why???
>>556600735doesn't it highlight the problem of this mod? Having to move for a hundred years because someone on the opposite side of the map decided to declare on you?
>>556600807I thought AoS maps are all random bullshit that gets destroyed and reshaped every day so fighting over it is a pointless waste of time anyway.
>>556600807He's just like me ...
>>556600817Problem?I actually have an Empire to defend, where the mechanics of saving, and maintaining the Elector Count States means something beyond 15 settlements. I am just filthy about being stabbed in the back by Marienburger shits.Time to re establish Westland Elector Count.
>>556600807It's a metaphor about Warhammer Fantasy fans spewing rivers of shit non stop about AoS everyday
Hold on.. fkn Aislinn can use sea lanes? No wonder he always sits in ulthuan.
>>556601696I admire your patience, and what of the lag? heard it eats a lot of ressources
+450 gold but -100 gold..I feel like this is just unnecessary math
>>556602449You can boost the income
>>556602679But what if we boost the cost?
>>556602142i thought that was one of his core features? i haven't got the dlc yet
>>556602213Its no where near as bad as it used to be. I have a beefy rig with a 4080 and 64gb of ram though. They were somehow able to turn on a little bit of corruption without shitting the bed as well.Turn times are a bit shit after about 10 but as soon as you get under 300 factions it has started speeding up.As it is, I am running 197 mods and its smooth with 2.5 times unit sizes and I am using a couple smoke and gunpowder extra effects mods as well and even with al of that I am fighting with 4-5k rifles and muskets going off and hundred artillery without issues.
>>556603403The AI is forbidden from taking sea lanes so I always assumed he can't either. But apparently he can take them.
Haven't played in a while and I saw the old world mod, which seemed neat. Is actually fun to play or is it one of these things people only post screenshots about?
>>556603506Not only can he, but he has specific ones he spawns as part of his mechanics - so you can pick which 'theatre' of war to operate in.Unironically they should copy paste his mechanics to Lohkir and just paint the buttons purple.
>>556604114>want to use sea lane>sea lane is purple
>>556603816I have mostly been playing IEE because vanilla is boring and the Old World mod was stuttery and unstable for ages. In its current iteration I wont be playing the other 2 versions now or for the foreseeable future. The fact that their version of northern araby is bigger than the base games entirety of the South Lands and you can spend 50 turns and never leave while conquering 30 settlements as Tomb Kings etc...I wish the entire world was like this. I would play the shit out of a 200 settlement Lustria only campaign. It would also fix that there are more non lizards in Lustria for example than lizards, and taking 10 settlements is not half a continent.Reikland alone in this is 18 settlements not including Helmgart.
>>556604274I meant the UI but whatever....
>>556604114I know, I played him. Lokhir already has his mechanic. If you go kill him as Lokhir you unlock his sea lanes.
is SFO harder? I'm getting destroyed in my campaigns , but I'm not sure if it's just because I don't know how things work or not
>>556601660You'd actually need to wash your ass to be like him, so no, he's not like you.
>>556605421Yeah, you aren't swimming in money by turn 5 to begin with
Only BEAR and THE BVLL dlc can save us now..
>>556602142iirc AI Aislinn can't use his special sea-lanes (and no AI factions can use the"normal ones").It's just that after a few turns he will pop automatically near the Vamp-Coast sea lane every campaigns when you don't play him.
>>556607431>the bear>the bull>the bear>the bull>the bear>the bullhave you tried not being unbearabull???
Ok I fucked up. I ignored the fucking rats that took over Zhufbar and they started back capping Averland. The one army near them I had to defend them ended up with surrounded and fighting 5 times their number and the fucks WOULD NOT STOP SPAMMING MEANCE FROM BELOW ON MY ARTILLERY.A new anti rat force is heading there but fuck me it looks like its going to be a slog on par with Vlad. My gunpowder focused military otherwise is not really good at fighting rats.
>>556605625he's not washing his ass in the river. the river is his ass sweat and puss
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAI DON'T WANNA FIGHT THIS
