Thanquol soon, friends!
Hey, I just wanted to say that Armoured Kossars fucking rock.
do undivided chaos units do anything better than the others, or should you always upgrade/swap them if you can
>>558474129they are literally better than chosen in the late gameLITERALLYdon't even get me started on late game tzar guard DON'T
been away from TW for a while and just saw the rebirth trailer, what's the verdict? worth a reinstall?
Thoughts on Asrai?
Is it just me or does playing as Skaven just feel like cheating compared to al the other factions?
>>558474331Better color scheme
>>558477897>amazing artillery>melee troops serve their chaff purpose excellently >astounding guns>armored and armor piercing chariots They have an answer to everything.
Why haven't CA renamed Malekith to Malerion? I don't want to deadname him.
>>558477796Best elves.
>>558477796>>558479565Stop giving human breasts to Elves. Elves are a C-cup max.
>>558479867Certainly not wood elves.
thanks to the anon awhile ago that told me to just fuck off somewhere else for the royal scythia legendary campaign rome 2pretty much the only way to play it i think
>>558479867Provably untrue, see >>558479970
>>558479867Wrong.
>>558473572Reminder we are getting 4 Terracota Sentinels LH.
Post squires with elves.
>>558477796o-oh...
>>558482757DO NOT OPEN! LEWD INSIDE!
>>558482781Elves get into such odd trouble...
>>558473698>empire total war>play gameAs you command....
>>558482971Fuck forgot imageFaction for this feel? Can be Major or Minor
>>558473698>literally mod killing full vanillaVanilla bros...
>>558479867explain this dark elf then
>>558484340whore!
>>558482858Not chivalrous...
>>558484820He said that dark elf, not all dark elves.
>>558482757
>>558483158I don't think it meant that Empire..
>>558485828It should be male squire and female high elf.
>>558479867I think official art disagrees with you
>>558485942Too lateGive that nigga a volley
Let's say Miao Ying was confined inside of an indestructible box with a random cathay peasantHow long would it take for her to consider eating him alive to survive
>>558485942no, it's definitely there because of my one post saying that tech trees made sense in Empire Total War but not Warhammer. btw anon should play France
>>558487943That's more like it
>>558485828Tomboy daughter of the Duke of Bordeleaux, crossdresses as a man to become a squire to a Grail Knight and go on adventures.One day, meet an Asur prince at a ball and dance with him through the night. Fairy tale love story, you'll only find in Bretonnia.
>>5584878020 secondsShe would decide immediately at what time she was going to eat him.
>>558479867
>>558487268I'll take female squire x female elf
Any tips for Peasant-only Bretonnia? Whose the best starting LL?
>>558473572Do Tigermen have barbed penises like cats?
>>558490525they're actually all femaleso no
>>558482305The first two were already lame.
Why is it so horny today? Not just this thread either. Just me?
>>558490874This anon >>558479867 got everyone to spam large breasted elves.
>>558490607How does that stop them from having barbed penises? Are you stupid?
Elven women owe me sex.
Elven man owe me sex.
>>558492278>.Teclis
>>558492147>>558492278(You) owe elves sex.
>Launch WH3 female LLs were MIAO ying and KATarin>New DLC is literally just a catWhy are CA obsessed with felines currently?
>>558473572If empire total war was remastered to not be so shit I'd totally play it.
>>558493124Because cats are great and every single setting should have cat people.
>>558493124>>558493371Imperial guard Felinid LL confirmed for 40k launch.
This general is so slow. December was so fun, constant discussion between hist, fantasy, and sci-fi fags.
>>558482956What's the full image/source? Can't reverse image search it.
>>558497301Thank God the 40k retards have left us alone for now.
I'll be honest, I don't care about Total War 40k at all. It just doesn't feel as significant as Warhammer Fantasy. 40k already has a lot of RTS games and this would just be another one.
>>558498086Not to mention CA decided it to have a Helldiver's campaign style so you won't even be able to conquer the Warhammer galaxy either. Just endless campaigns over irrelevant star systems.
>>558498086Okay but 40k is a better setting, and in all 3 of its games, total war had never devolved so quickly. It’s literally marvel tier shit at this point. It’s even made me agree with volund at this point.
>>558499936>but 40k is a better settingnah40k is too predictable. It's just Space Marines on both sides and all the other races are boring as fuck. I don't hate it, but I'm not fond of its factions either
>>558500324There's like 7 sides and most of them don't have space marines.
I fucking hate the shade stacks AI dark elves are always making.
>>558497572if only you had an artist's name AND the website he uploads his artwork to work from, like maybe if that had been posted as an image in the reply chain you replied to, then you would be able to find it. oh well
>>558500761Yeah, but 80% of the DLC is going to be Space Marines, but in different colours (40keks will go crazy over them).
>>558487802You do realize those dragons are immortal magical beings, yes? They don't need to eat or breathe.
>>558502271then why do they die when they lose their blood? checkmate chinktards
Do we like Kislev?
>>558500324>40k is too predictableYou say this like fantasy isn’t. If it’s not beastmen who are the bad guys, it’s chaos, if it’s not chaos, it’s vampires, if it’s not vampires it’s beastmen.
>>558500761>Bugs with literally nothing interesting about them>Two types of elves worse than their fantasy versions>Orcs with almost no goblins>Weebs with long-range weapons and literally zero interesting things>Humans but nuns>Humans but humans>Humans but in power armour (All humans use the same weapons and equipment by the way)>Demons straight out of fantasy>Necrons are probably the only interesting faction and even they have their own fantasy counterpartAgain, I don't hate 40k as a whole, and I love narrative-driven games like Rogue Trader, but it really doesn't appeal to me in terms of units and heroes. It doesn't help that almost all Chaos units are either almost exact copies of regular ones or simply demons already found in fantasy.>>558502520These three fantasy races you mentioned already have more diversity than the bad guys in 40k. At least in fantasy, Chaos and vampires have different kinds, in 40k it's literally just Space Marines and traitor guardsmen.
>>558502520>Chaos>Skaven>Beastmen>Dark Elves>Vampires>OrcsChorfsNot to mention, the only order faction people care about in 40K is the Imperium. While Fantasy has:>Empire>High Elves>Kislev>Bretonnia>Cathay>Dwarfs>Lizardmen
>>558502347A lobster is also considered immortal yet it dies when we kill it.
I've said this before, but if 40k got a trailer like this https://youtu.be/F3rXKKGsfpk?si=XLOwMq311fEwC6bE , it would literally be a crowd of Space Marines (some of them bigger than others and considered a separate faction) and maybe one or two elves and tech-priests. And most of the enemies will also be Space Marines.
>>558502887>Kislev>>Bretonnia>>Cathaynobody cares about these, lets be real. >Dwarfsexist to be elf onaholes>lizardmen What about them? They hardly get any stories. and are cucked in the lustria corner more often than not. >>Vampireswho cares they are just humans but edgy >Orcs40k does them better>dark elves 40k does them better yet again >beastmen lol. lmao.>skaven who cares>chaos is done MUCH better in 40k. fantasy doesnt have shit on blood pact.
>>558503490>>>CathayThe second most popular race in TWW3.>>skaven>who caresNow this is bait
>>558503423>trailer of le avengers, UNITE DER!!!!!!!!
>>558503490Eat a dick. Cathay is the coolest thing they ever made.
>>558503612>The second most popular race in TWW3.Chink inflation doesnt count.
>>558503827mmmm Miao inflation
>>558503803They are easily the worst thing. They dont even fit the setting.
>>55850342340K could never pull a trailer like this off. Every faction in 40K is defined only by its relation with the Imperium. There's barely any development between inter-faction relations except with the Imperium.
Requesting a picture of Aqua as Yin-Yin real quick.
>>558503984
>>558504110>Naked elfso what she rubbed her kitty on a elves clitty?
>>558503490>Bretonnia>nobody cares about these, lets be real.I do.>skaven >who caresTerrible opinion.
>>558504110YIN YIN IS STUPID.
Can't believe we'll never get Yin Yin. All the content GW has released for Cathay doesn't mention Yin Yin, so she's seemingly been written out. Li Dao is going to be the next and probably the last (for TWW3) dragon child we get.
>>558503960Nice reddit opinion. Your setting can eat an entire bowl of dicks. Absolutely made up nonsense.Wahrammer is just Warcraft but edgy and warcraft got fkn pandas for the chinese faction.Cathay is better than anything in fantasy and 40k.
Yin Yin bros... it's over... we're stupid...
>>558504643>MicrophoneWhat songs does Yin Yin sing?
>>558504263>I do.They're books are all awful lol, how can you like such an awful faction? Even GRRM does knights better.
>>558504643God pokies are so fucking hot..
>>558504731>Microphone
>>558504731she makes kidnapped men sing with it. They can get quite loud.
>>558504110Guess the elf
>>558504735>how can you like such an awful faction?They have kino aesthetics.I like knights, peasants, castles and the like.
>>558504110>>558504951GW themselves shattered this myth, Miao prefers Sigmarite men.
>>558504731>microphoneAnon...
>>558503490Elves lost the largest war they ever fought to dwarfs.
surprised i got this achievement in my gorbad campaign
>>558505050Miao x Sigmar is forced, and porn brained. Miao x Imrik was an organic, idyllic love story.
>>558500761
>>558504590>person who hates warhammer fantasy likes cathayUnsurprising.
>>558505261Miao and Imrik haven't even met in the lore.
>>558505357>Over half of the chaos forces are just SMGrim
>>558505452AHEM
>>558505452Thats what makes it organic and not some cropo spiel.
>>558505369Never said that. I love warhammer, I find 40k giga boring tho cause of the marine slop made for autistic kids.I'll be playing warhammer 3 till the end of time unless they make warhammer 4 cause no other game they make will come close to this masterpiece.
>>558505513>"Oh shit she's looking right at me. OK Imrik, be cool, this is your chance."
>>558505357>2 Xeno factions are actually just the same hivemindGrave even

>>558505637>your setting can eat an entire bowl of dicks>also hates the empireYou don't like warhammer fantasy.
>>558505513>Smirks at his halberd>Compensating for something?
>>558506082LATER
>>558504643Yin Yin is STRONG
>>558505934>>sisters of battle>No space marines.Use power armour and basically just female space marines.>>adeptus titanicus>No space marines.Because it's not a real faction duh>>imperial agents>That seems more like a collection of special characters than an army.Most of them wear power armour and are indistinguishable from space marines>>nusquats>No space marines.Power armour again
>>558506492Power armor making someone a space marine is an extremely reductionist view that I would only expect an actual retard to unironically possess.
>>558505357So we have Empire, WoC, high elves, dark elves, dawi, robot tomb kings, greenskins, tau and nids.But woc and empire are clones.That game is gonna be such a fucking flop holy shit. No wonder they didn't announce 3 games. There aren't enough factions to even make a 2nd game.
Total war 40k will outsell all of the total war warhammer games, which were outsold by three kingdoms.
>>558506043That's not how reality works. You can't decide what I like or don't.
>>558506626This is just nitpicking. Space marines themselves have never been a problem, the problem has always been that there are too fucking many of them. And the argument "well, they're not space marines even if they look exactly like them" is just stupid in this situation
>>558506836If you regularly shittalk a setting and actively dislike the heart and soul of that setting, you don't like that setting.
>>558506678It's not that bad for a first game, but there's just no room for growth. You can cram every unit and faction from the 10th edition in there, and it will still be smaller than TWW3, or maybe even 2.
>>558506692Yeah, and it'll die quickly like Three Kingdoms, too. Both games appealed to a large fanbase (chinks vs 40keks) which led to high initial sales but low DLC sales. 40kek games are notorious for not having long lifetimes.
>>558503490/twg/ is bretonnian clay, lad
>>558507159The heart and soul of it is cathay. I don't know what weird ass jewish manipulation tactics you are attempting but you can't magically make me dislike my vidya.
>>558507346Vive La Bretonnia
>>558507223CA having a unit painter from day 1, probably also harms DLC prospects. They won't be able to just reskin SM for every DLC.
At least Legend left knowing he was right about the Shang Yang leak
>>558507438>The heart and soul of it is cathayIt is not.The heart of soul of warhammer fantasy is the empire and greenskins, with dwarfs and vampire counts as core side characters. Disliking any one of these means you don't like warhammer fantasy.
>>558507598Unless they let you customize your equipment, it will just be an endless stream of the same units with different weapons. That's fine in fantasy, where you can basically only have two types of weapons, but in 40k, each unit can have 5-6 different types of weapons.
>>558507346worse than the bugmen.
>>558507768>That's fine in fantasyIt really isnt, if people had a taste of customization they wouldnt ever play this dogshit again.
>>558507768>Space Marines (Chainswords)
>>558506869If you think a space marine and a sister of battle look exactly the same you are mentally ill.
>>558507960Do you really think they should have gone to the trouble of creating a whole customisation system just to let people choose between sword or spear?>>558508010>Dude in big armour with a big gun>Woman in big armour with a big gunwow
Reminder that Imrik is a happy cuck
warhammer ruined this series
Which of the arabian factions in Attila is best?
>>558508150Space marine armor and sister of battle armor looks nothing alike. They look as much alike as a grail knight with a sword and a chaos knight with a sword.
>>558507223At least we save money since we won't have to buy 3 70dollar games and their dlcs.
>>558508254>>558508553DOUBLE TRVKE
>>558505357The only chaos faction that is unique to chaos ie. isn't a chaos version of an imperium faction, is Chaos Daemons. The 1 faction that is identical to its Fantasy counterpart that we already have. lol, lmao even
I think the 40K setting making older tech stronger and better is kind of cool
>>558507737Get with the times grandpa. We are warhammer the old world now and selling huge miao ying figures. Nobody cares for your ancient shit.
Pharaoh Dynasties with a mythology DLC (from multiple cultures too) would have been cool as fuck
I can't wait for this general to be filled with console fags when TW40K release
Why would you wish for the worsening of a place you should love?
>>558510178And how are they supposed to enter a 4chan thread on their piece of shit 5?
>>558511364Obviously they'll be phoneposting during their 5 minute turn times on console
>>558511364doesn't playstation or xbox have internet browsing capability?
>>558511631Nice joke, I like it. >>558511672It's not as easy as opening a console menu for a chat window and speaking into a controller for speech to text. They'd have to solve horrendous with a pad. There is no way they'd do that.
>>558511672Horrendous captchas.
>>558505513>>558506082>>558506268I wish a drawfag would draw this instant loss comic.
Who would make a fun cav only campaign that is not Brettonia or Elves?
>>558514431Ogres, Khorne, Nurgle, Cathay. Needs lots of turns to get the cav tho. I used to run pure cav on ogres. Shit is braindead.
>>558506268GIWIWMY
>>558514431Elves can do cav only?
>The post that broke /twg/
>love Elspeth's gunnery / artillery focus and overall abilities >hate her starting position as it's a complete clusterfuck for the first 70 turns>I suck with gun units I wish her and Gelt could swap places
>>558516408just use the mod that gives the mechanic to karl
>>558516458You mean Gelt, right? Giving it to Karl doesn't solve any of my problems as they share a border.
>>558514431Empire cav is so slept on>>558514663Imrik sure can
>>558516408New to total war? https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2790754811
Why is almost all of naggaroth frozen climate when over half of it is clearly not frozen?
>>558517062Ever seen mongolia? Freezing cold nonstop but many parts are just wastelands without ice or snow.
>>558516964I don't think this would work for Elspeth, as she needs to hold Nuln in order have access to her gunnery school
>>558517214Much of it is at the same lattitude as ulthuan and bretonnia and some of it even directly borders savannah.
>>558514304Those kislevite women have perfect skincare routines compared to the men.
>>558517398You are giving me a headache..Is it Nuln or a building in Nuln because ofc it will work.I did that settlement switch with Ikit Claw and he needs his workshop building in Skavenblight.I used this https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2791241084 changed my starting settlement with the other mod, then used the console to add a building slot to what I took over and then spawn a workshop landmark in my new city. If you need Nuln itself, you switch location and then use the console to take control back of Nuln which is now a ruin after you switched.If it's a special building and it needs upgrading like Ikit's workshop, there is just a tiny issue in that it won't let u upgrade so once I hit the settlement main level required I used the console to delete the lvl1 workshop and spawned a lvl3 workshop.
>>558518001I have used the mod that gives Nuln bonuses as extra research in the normal tree.It requires you to hold Nuln itself to unlock half of them to be researched at all. It also only gives research and buffs no access to the new units regardless.That is the only version that remotely works other crash the game every few turns.
>>558518609Then take Nuln back as I said and play a dual start. YinYin has a dual start and I'm still holding her starting location on turn 100. Haven't ever expanded it. That thing is attacked by lokhir, snikch, dechala and sayl but they are unable to take it. Just bunker down full force. I keep 2 armies in ambush next to it at all times and got fat walls. That thing defends itself really.If you do that you can keep Nuln and play your new starting location. And not like you have any dangerous enemies around nuln. Just vampires galore.
>>558516408>as it's a complete clusterfuck for the first 70 turns Is it? I feel like she has one of the safest starting positions of any faction. The only real threat that I consistently see in the early game is Vlad and Isabella steamrolling their way directly towards you.
>>558520127It can be a bit annoying since you basically need to dedicate the first 20 turns just to dealing with Vlad. Ignoring him isn’t smart.
>>558473572Are we getting Ind on the map with the next expansion? Surely they won't release tigermen without filling Ind.
Since we are getting Nagash, what if instead of Thanquol they do a lazy Feskitt FLC to have the Skaven Vs Nagash addition?
Does anyone know what mod I am missing? There is nothing on the Nagash page I have the OvN mods but the hand and skeletal elephants are not 'visible'.Anyone know if there is a submod for the Legion of Nagash mod?
>>558522461Tyrion's new capital
>>558503803trueretards like >>558503960 dont even understand the setting and/or are lorelets
>>558505886Genestealers are technically not part of the hivemind proper but should still submit to be eaten by gaunts unless its the wrong hivefleet
>>558528650Cathay was a couple obscure paragraphs of lore at most for like 30 years and its modern depiction is painfully out of place in how current year it is.
is there an old world book for cathay yet? i am sure all the lore you could ever need is in there
fucking hate irondrakes
>>558529004There's several short stories including one of Miao Ying meeting Sigmar himself.
>>558525979mixer unlocker maybe
>>558535935I have that also checked all the mod requirments.
40k news tomorrow confirmed
>>558528861Makes you imagine what things would be like if reversed - Age of Sigmar being the original setting and WhF being the remake. What's shocking to me is it is very very fucking easy to see an alternate reality where that happened: Age of Sigmar came out in the 80s and was a peak moorcock-y superhero-y interdimensional bullshit but with the 80s flavor of glam haired Sylvian wicca elves, Sigmarines are just heavy metal knights of thunder and lightning, vampire cunts are Requium Vampire Knights, Then you get Games Workshop deciding this is aged, quaint and out of touch and they need to get in on that warcraft and game of thrones money so they come up with - well just take Cathay and Kislev and apply that same motif across the board. The Middenheim are wolfs wolfing wolf wolfers wolving down wolves, The Empire is not German-coded but is now phone game medieval azeroth, chaos is literally just their age of sigmar form nothing new there.>>558525858Given they seemed to want to have other calamities or whatever their word for it is it does feel foolish to load the Skaven into nagash's pack when you could instead have some big Skaven themed release
>>558537558There's nothing interdimensional about sigmar thoughbeitever
they should make a total war that's just humans, without the fantasy and magic stuff

>>558510178The fact that people barely even talk about the games going to consoles is the real death of Total War to me. I swear 10 years ago if you'd told people it was going to be turned into a console series it would have been considered something totally apocalyptic. Now people are just like 'meh'
>>558562125Total war has been a phone game for years.
>>558562261but no one ever talks about the phone games
>>558562261Not really. The equivalent would be if they announced that 40k and Medieval were going to have simultaneous phone releases.Then a bunch of people on /twg/ nervously tried to tell you that this definitely wont have any effect on the design of the game
You now remember Arena
>>558562125>I swear 10 years ago if you'd told people it was going to be turned into a console series it would have been considered something totally apocalyptic.CA have been desperately trying for years now to get Total War into the normalfag zeitgeist and it never, ever works.
>>558564598I wish some of that translated into adding functional match making to multiplayer.
>>558564716>everything is balanced around multiplayer>the multiplayer experience itself is dogshit and has the QoL features of something from 2010I will never understand the byzantine internal workings of CA
>>558564598On the opposite end of the spectrum paradox decided to dive deeper on the niche rabbit hole by making increasingly more complex games and became the most succesful company in the strategy side of the market.At this point the warhammer fantasy IP is the only thing keeping total wars bloated corpse afloat
Did you know that Starcraft 2 was released in 2010?Did you also know that Starcraft 2 has different unit stats for their campaign variants and for their multiplayer variants?Huh, I can't think of the relevance that this has to Total War: Warhammer 3 or any other Total War titles. Just wanted to mention it!
>>558565204>I will never understand the byzantine internal workings of CA>>558565220>At this point the warhammer fantasy IP is the only thing keeping total wars bloated corpse afloatThe reality of the matter is that CA would rather be working on literally anything other than Total War. These nudevs resent the series and its fanbase.
>>558565484But anon if the stats are different the people that mainly play one role might be dissuaded to try the other!
>>558561924Keep going and you have some Bolt Thrower lyrics.

>>558573641Sorry I didn't realise Total Warhammer is like Smash Bros
>>558574272its more like marvel.
>>558574272It unironically is, a good number of characters in-game shouldn't coexist
Do we think future games will use the excellent blended victory conditions from Pharoah Dynasties or will it be back to map painting slop?
>>558575352This is pushing my limits but I'm hoping that the end times dlc is a overhaul of a good portion of the campaign sandbox. So everyone will have a kind of end times meter to mark how close they are to victory.
I am seriously getting so tired about how fucking bad LOS is in TW3. It's maddening

>>558578103Because people have heard of him, that's what landmarks and famous people are.
>>558575352Why did Pharoah fail?
>>558578319The setting is boring as fuck. It was doomed from the start. It's why CA moved away from historical.
>>558578319People will say a lot of shit, especially warhammerbabs, but the real reason is that it was a piece of Troy DLC that got expanded in scope and sold for $60 when everybody already got Troy for free.
>>558578319Nobody gives a fuck about brown people and the only games brown people buy is madden, kickball, and cawwadootyIt was a doomed mistake thought up by woke retards
>>558578824Are you the guy who made like 800 posts over the last few years in /twg/ saying CA will never make another history game?

>>558604408I had a fun Knights of Caledor campaign in TWW2 a few months back. I was determined to stomp Grimgor's 'Ardboyz before they steamrolled the entire eastern half of the map. I beelined straight for Black Crag and took it from Grimgor in the first 15 turns. Then managed to shut him down pretty early on. That was extremely satisfying. The first time I tried a KoC campaign it took over 100 turns to destroy Grimgor.

Now that CA and GW have opened pandora's box with Microfactions I am once again requesting-Anakonda and her amazons (LL Anakonda part of the Lizardman faction, amazon chieftess L, serpent priestess hero with the lore of life and beasts)-Suleiman of Araby and his forces (LL Suleiman part of the Bretonnian faction, with Arabyan Lord and then some kind of 'djinn' sorcerer wielding fire and heavens and he can special summon his djinn companions in battle, arabyan spearmen, cavalry, giant rocs and elephants)-Thorgard Cromson of the Norse Dwarfs (LL Thorgard Cromson of Kraka Drak, special anti-chaos buildings for the grand runic ward monoliths against chaos, Norse Dwarf lord with mammoth mount, Norse Dwarf rune-engineer, a fusion of runemaster and engineer who empowers weapons and shit, norse dwarfs on mammoths, norse dwarfs with spears, norse dwarf berzerkers which are like slayers but they get the berzerk (for a dwarf) trait, and instead of underway they have their grand canal stance that lets them move further over water plus fix the fucking map of norsca to include the other 5 norse dwarf holds you CUNTS)-Tilea?

>>558578319There was no target demographic. The traditional player base for historical total wars are continental Euros, Anglos and Turks. Americans mostly play fantasy. If you want a successful historical title you need to get everyone on board. If you try catering to only one group your project will fail. The only people Pharaoh might've appealed to were Turks since they could go for a we wuz Hittites larp.Ancient Egypt in general hasn't been popular for decades now. The only people who care about it are African-Americans and they certainly don't make up a large percentage of the historical total war player base.And before anyone brings it up 3K and Shogun were outliers. The former could rely on a billion Chinamen while the later had weabooism on its side which transcends borders.

>>558646668Yes newfag. We are going back to the Empire days of nickle and diming individual units. They need the gravy train to keep flowing to fund TW40k - which is going to be the same as WHTW but so much worse.

>>558658961I don't play Dark Elves, I don't play Dark Eldar in DoW, I wont play them in TW40K.Its not an evil thing, I play all the others fine. They are just too fucking edgy for me. Even compared to Chaos. I think its because I grew up during the height of the emo/numetal era and I fucking despised those flagellating faggots. Every single one I ever met all came from upper middle class backgrounds with wealthy parents and were all afflicted by 2 attributes; >1 - The 'pain' of having no 'pain'.>2- Utterly weak and deathly afraid to break a sweat.I get the same feelings of irrational anger, revulsion and distain, although less than irl whenever I hear or look at 'dark elves/eldar'. I cannot even stand playing Alith Anar because he is so fucking close to them. I am not even an elf fag. Most of the high elves are boring.I think dark elves are far worse than 40k eldar because they have a fucking excuse even if their own profound disgusting faggotry caused it.
Cant decide which faction is the most technically advanced between, Skaven, empire, dwarfs and chaos dwarfsThey all have something going for them.
>>558656543you know what, fuck it. Goldfag time

>>558662229>SkavenThey are comically shit at every level technologically. Everything they make literally blows up. Most of their 'advanced' tech that wasn't just a bomb-in-waiting is End Times wank. Even Throt is just shoving warpstone into things and stitching shit together to see what sticks. Chaos achieves the same thing with random mutations. The point is if a half dozen named Skaven characters dies, almost all their 'tech' is lost.>DwarfsArguably more advanced in their past than present in TW. Golems and shard dragons, despite powered by rune magic, were still technology. I would say they are second place>Chorfs1st place because they are actually industrialised but have no conscience holding them back but still have dwarf quality control and standardisation - the actual engine behind the modern world irl. >Empire of ManWould actually surpass everyone and in lore were on the cusp of an industrial revolution. Humanity were making leaps and bounds in almost every field and unlike the dwarfs - they would look upon say an Ironclad, and immediately begin making one until it surpassed the original. In current TW era humanity has surpassed the dwarfs in gunsmithing and artillery, but also massively in every other field. Magic is rare and dangerous enough it can never be a crutch like the elves or dwarf runes.However right now, a distant 3 to dwarfs and chorfs.>Cathaylol. lmao. If GW had written the Empire of Man to have invented biplanes then modern writers would have just slapped some dragon carving on to the front of a P-51 and called it a day. I am half expecting them to announce Cathay has universal healthcare and free higher education in nulore.

Team reiterates that CA Sophia is not its own team, but fully integrated with Horsham. Given we literally knew that wasn't the case as Pharaoh was being developed, it seems Sophia has become fully a support studio with devs working between all projects. I suppose this is a natural evolution as originally they were intended to work on projects like Empire Divided and Rise of the Republic for experience. But still, it does seem that they are in denial about wanting Sophia to be more independent originally. Ultimately, this is probably for the best.
TCLUPIKAL barely said anything about WH3
>>558670870No one cares about it. It's all 40k now. Which is great the sooner it comes out the faster I can forget about Cathay and tigermen existing in Fantasy now.

They want space battles, but not sure will it be on launch, but it will eventually be there! SPACE RAMING CONFIRMED
>>558671462But then we wouldn't have Grand Cathay.
>NO SPACE BATTLES AT LAUNCH>(maybe later)
"Ambient Units" mentioned for 40K. Seems to be basically a thing where when you get into a battle, allied units will already be fighting like say Orks and Guard. Seems that this means if there are allied forces in a battle its not necessarily there being a specific allied army, but rather just troops fighting around.Also, Roger said he wants space battles, but maybe not on launch. Which is honestly kind of crazy, makes it sound like space battles are something that could actually happen, I thought that'd be a no by default.

>>558674345There will be space battle but prolly not on launch
>>558674345Also ambient units that are fighting when you just drop into a battle.
>>558674320More like navy battle. No space battles at start. Later they will do some stupid shit like. You can only embark enemy ship at you got normal battle on map that looks like inside of battlebarge
>>558672659please tell me this is a shitpost and won't actually happenIf it happens it will ruin the general harder than ratfaggotry did
>>558658961I dislike kislev, cathay and vampire coast enough that I don't even feel like getting their campaign achievements.I don't like wood elves but drycha and her angry trees amused me enough for a playthrough in WH2 and WH3.Dark elves and high elves bore me but at least dark elves are comically edgy enough to make me smile whenever I hear them.The last time I played norsca and tomb kings was for their WH2 campaign achievements, I don't really care for them either.
>>558672659>>558674997Reminder that the anti-Legend fags are as bad, if not worse, than the Legend spam, considering they have a raid Discord setup for it.
>l-le heccin Discord raiding!Grow up
>40k player might have to do half assed ship combat a year inGod I'd be laughing my ass off. The legendary hero looks interesting. I want him.
>We want space battles, but there probably won't be any space battles at launch, maybe later.>"ambient units" fighting on the battlefield.>expect them showing campaign stuff this (early) summer (during event), maybe battle stuff in a "relative future"
Our best hope is they get the BGA2 devs on board somehow, that games ship combat is great
>>558672132Sounds like it definitely won't be at launch, he just wanted to alleviate some schizos that the game need to be 2 games in one.People don't understand how massive space battles in 40k are, they can't just make a shitty mode and move in or else it's going to be even shittier than having nothing.Hopefully they never do it because it would get in the way of adding actual units and interesting campaign mechanics to the game.
>>558676410They won't do it, they're saying this to keep the schizos silentThey MIGHT do it if the game is such an extreme success that they can expend that extra money on it.
>40k is in space>has a good deal of spaceships and space combat rules>"NOOOOO YOU ARENT SUPPOSED TO EXPECT HECCIN' SPACE BATTLES JUST CONSUME WHATEVER THEY GIVE YOU!"Sure, Rajesh
>>558676774>People believe they'll do a whole new game inside total war just for space battlesYou faggots are beyond delusional.
>>558672659But what is it with e-celeb fags treating streamers for a niche vidya as if they are gods?
>>558676729I don't want space battles...
>>558677594Having rules doesn't mean they have the time, money or the people.The main Warhammer 40k game is about land battles, you'll get that, they won't do a kill team mode just because it also has rules, or a necromunda one.
I don't want space battles because they're a waste of resources for a total war game. They'll barely make a functional game as it is.. and I don't want to play space battles anyway. If I did I'd play that space battle game.
>>558677675They spent all the time they could have spent improving Slophammer 3 on this, I expect space battles and for them to be fun, TCA needs to meet expectations, we shouldnt be settling for slop like we have all of 3's lifespan so far.
Every turn is a slog through multiple armies and any one defeat will ruin or severely set back my campaign. Am I playing Warhammer tw right?
>TCA shills already running damage control against space battles saying its unnecessary
>>558678104Idk. Some guy here said he had 45 armies and everything on automatic, except battles, and he enjoyed it..
>>558677968What do you mean? You're getting ET and character packs this year lolWarhammer 3 is getting plenty of time.
>>558678153warhamtasy 3 didn't need ship battles
>180+ mods>loading and turn times take foreverSigh
>>558677872>The main Warhammer 40k game is about land battlesFucking this.I want a fucking great base total war game. Give me new mission objectives, ACTUAL FUCKING GOOD SIEGES and great gun battles.Anything else is irrelevant, make the core game good so we don't have to carry that shit forward like Warhammer 3.
>>558678230>End TimesYou mean the part of Warhammer Fantasy everyone hates thatll cost about the same amount as Warhammer 3 released for or at least close enough in the $45-$60 range? Oh boy!>char packsYou mean the china numbah wan DLC that the bald fuck predicted that theyve repurposed into char packs because of the pivot? >>558678317>using Warhammer 3 as a standard when it was a shit game
>>558678541>Contrarian faggotLol
>>558678541>You mean the china numbah wan DLC that the bald fuck predicted that theyve repurposed into char packs because of the pivot?Absolutely no evidence they were intended door anything other than character packs.
>>558678104Vampire coast doesn’t have this problem as much. All you have to do to win is sack 60 cities, even if you lose your provinces, so long as your LL is alive you won’t get attrition. So you can kind of dick around, if you wait around too long they will get their higher tier units but worst comes to worst just cheese a fortress with queen bess and a gunnery wight and be a complete nuisance for whoever you want
>>558678432>ACTUAL FUCKING GOOD SIEGESTell me about it, give me this and I'm happy. They have the whole destruction physics now, make this shit work.
>>558678712>wanting a game to give us our moneys worth is contrarian when theyve consistently provided DLC that hasnt matched the price they were asking for besides Thrones of DecaySure, goy.>>558678754Its pretty obvious Cathay was made as a way to appeal to the chinks and the obvious negative response to the Lords of Shang Yang caused a shift in their DLC path.
>>558679457The response wasn't particularly negative and when the fuck have they ever listened to us about anything?Hyenas is what fucked them and made them change their plans.
I saw a mention of a 'Australian Khorne warrior' in the live chat
>>558679457>us our moneys worthA Warhammer 40k game is a land battle game, they need to nail that shit.If they make a great game with only that, I'm more than happy to pay for it, I don't collect spaceships, I collect tanks and guardsmen
>>558678541>>using Warhammer 3 as a standard when it was a shit gameyou'll consider 40k a shit game no matter what, so yeah it's the standard. Not of a good game ,but of a nutotal war game... So just give up bruther
>>558677675Was Rome 2 or Empire naval battles a "whole new game" in the game ?
Space battles won't come like you imagine them to.They'd have to do a whole roster of ships for each faction, imagine how fucking expensive that would be for a new faction DLC? They might give you some cheap looking general ships with some menial gameplay inside, if you're lucky.
>>558680749Yes? Empire mainly, worse yet they were both horrible modes.Also comparing shipmanii to completely different ships, weapons and abilities is insane lol
Would be cool if they made something original for space battles instead of dogshit naval battles from histfag games, but in space. Like turn based ftl like thing or whatever.
>>558678712>buy 3 games>500 patches>£20,000 worth of DLC>still cant have a good siege battle when there are Total War games that got this right 20 years ago

>>558648794I will gladly give them 5 whole dollaridoos for my 3 5 unit mini-faction DLC as long as it is one of the ones I autism over.
How hyped are you for 40k? Be honest
>>558688201Right now? Low. I need to see actual gameplay not cgi trailers or empty talks from CA in order to get hyped.
>>558688201Not at all. It'll probably hardwarefilter me and the prices are what they are.

Hey anons are there any good strategy or rpg games you've tried during Steam next fest?(Can be other generes too if good)Saw this https://store.steampowered.com/app/3337380/Tabletop_Tavern/ it's sort of a Total War-esque roguelike
I dont like forsaken and spawns of chaosThanks for reading my post
>>558693917No problem anon. I'm always happy to read chaos friend opinions.
>>558672032Perfidious space fey
>>558689486Space battles = black arks for everyone with autoresolve only btw>>558677080What are you talking about faggot? >muh 40k battles are so massive!!!11!1 We've already seen the land battles, the units are like 160 models max. Land battles are gonna be tiny, probably no larger than Shogun 2 and likely smaller than 3K. Scale is no issue, because even coming close to 40ks scale was NEVER on the cards
>>558696784also>Hopefully they never do it because it would get in the way of adding actual units and interesting campaign mechanics to the game.>CA>interesting mechanicslollmao even
>>558691557Through character packs, we're all gonna make it
>try the hyped up TW2 mod>it's actually just a Empire rework balanced according to v*lounds vision of funWhich basically means it's about waiting 10 turns to replenish one unit instead of fighting battles.
>>558697886>must fight battles constantly 24/7i legit uninstalled that mod within 5 minutes but you are a adhd ledditor and the reason warhammer 3 is shitpls kill yourself FAST

Can't believe all (all two of the good ones) the coomer WH3 modders quit. Lazy only makes mods for games no one cares about that die in a month and his successor is making a coomer standalone game that will never take off.The golden age of Total War goon mods is behind us.
>>558701463I don't get itXCOM is already lewd
>>558701463>. Lazy only makes mods for games no one cares about that die in a month and his successor is making a coomer standalone game that will never take off.qrd
>>558701763Lazy abandoned his Morathi mod to work on a BG3 mod, which, okay, people did care about, and it had potential, but after the initial high, he stopped caring and stopped working on that too. Then he tried a CK3 mod, which didn't end up being that good and was abandoned.When Elspeth released, Lazy started a mod for her, but again, it was quickly abandoned. Now he's making a mod for Battle Brothers, a game I never heard of and looks awful.
beastwomen!ra-roo!
>>558473572Now that Pharaoh Dynasties is on GOG I can finally pirate it, play it, and see if I was being right all this time by shitting on it.
>>558704043Looks like complete slop from a early model from 3 years ago.
>>558704043Sorry but beastwomen canonically looks like that now.
>>558700245>Posts slop>Says others should be in the firing lineYou're at the head of the line, bucko
>>558705048slop for slop's only fair
>>558699659based as hellarino. I could only wish to be so cozy and chill
>>558704043Cute for a Chaos Cult but I'd rather have Minotauress Spears.
>>558704043Those are just human models with beastman gear lazily tacked on.
>>558691557>Space battlesFucking clowns can't even get regular naval battles in WH3. Ain't no way we're getting space battles in 40k unless they just pay to staple Battlefleet Gothic Armada 2 to the game and call it space battles.
>>558704043The female models actually look attractive. Didnt know it was possible to do that in a total war gameWhats the mod called
>Tamurkhan on his mount with all of his heroes embeddedSo this is chaos power huh... not bad
>>558706969Total Warhammer could never have naval battles the moment they decided to use the WHFB description of a black ark instead of the Man'o'War one. Man'o'war changed black arks to small cucked ships with with a manticore support and became non-canon to Fantasy because of that single balance decision.
>Steam won't let me go offline anymore.How do I prevent the update from destroying my save bros?
>>558707940Disable automatic updates in the games options.
>>558704043Way, way, WAY, not furry enough for me.
>>558704043Ironically enough, all I wanted was an actually beastly looking beastwoman.Even if she gets -200 relations with other beasts for refusing to take beastman cock.
>>558708293>for refusingThey don't have free will.
>>558709076TCA got to make up an entirely new Lord for this game.They can literally do whatever they want.Modders can absolutely do whatever they want.
>>558704043Me when I learn there's a beastwoman near me
>>558709076They technically have free will but their psychology and circumstances almost always preclude them from doing anything besides what beastmen normally do. They're a lot like greenskins in that way.
>>558707313I have a feeling those are just AI-generated portraits and actual units look nothing like that. Chink mods do that often.
so the stream was a nothingburger?
I want a hot female Norscan Lord.
>>558702371Battle Brothers is great, but I'm not sure it's a good coomer game

>>558493124The Tigermale bitch unironically should have looked like this instead.
>>558704043Are there any mods that spawn in more factions like beastmen who mainly focus on razing settlements? Campaign maps progress too fast, warring states period only lasts like 50 turns. I want to see civilization struggle to survive.
>>558717824mating press sex with submissive elves (male)
why is there a lord named after a slur for male homosexuals?
>>558725832One simple solution maybe is just a general rule like if civ gets 12 cities, or 3 provinces, there’s a 10% chance board spawns in the territory. 16/4, 30%, etc. if civ defeats horde they get some kind of grace period. Or make existing horde factions more likely to attack and raze settlements as well. How hard is vibe coding something like this?
>>558726087British company so he was actually named after cigarettes.
>>558717569mommy
space marine 2 update suckedback to my dark elf campaign
>>558677316The 40k fans better start praying that it won't be a mega hit. I'd find or make a mod if I have to that disables anything ship related so fast if they tried ruining my wh3 with those cringy ship battles. That garbage has no place here. But luckily wh3 is at a stage where I won't ever have to fear that happening.I could totally see them do a 40k ship dlc tho. I mean the universe is as shallow as shogun so they have to make up random nonsense to sell eventually.

>>558597758They're mad at him because he had sex with all the beastwomen
>>558733432is that supposed to be convincing somehow, as if TWW's 10,000+ participant battles are a faithful or representative adaptation of WFB or even Warmaster battles? are they not allowed to draw from different sources? like damn I hope the land battles don't have ~100 entities per army like a tabletop game of 40k that would suck ass
>>558677742Parasocial relationship. Streaming and podcasting is friend simulator for loosers.
>>558737610They legally aren't, you are correct.
>>558677594There will be no space battles for the same reason CA abandoned naval battles: Nobody will want to play them and they will cost far more to develop than they will bring to the table. Empire, the one game where naval battles truly mattered, only had 10% of players not autoresolving them. And every subsequent game had even worse numbers. >>558737610The license for all the space battle rules is held by a competitor company. There's literally no way to translate 40k space battles faithfully to WH40k. They'd have to do something like the utterly gimped space combat in Rogue Trader. I think what they will do is make Space Battles into a card game. You build a deck of cards and commands and play them in a minigame. Or maybe it'll be even simpler: Autoresolve only with a "fleet" of ships that have no 3d models.
>>558737610>are they not allowed to draw from different sources?When that source is an entirely different license, no they're not. You're asking for two entirely different games in one when one of those two games should completely invalidate the existence of the other one
>>558691557i would kneel if they update shogun 2 for modern resolutions and i would kneel even harder if they implement quick deal (just the values to see how much the ai would pay is fine)
this isn't fun, it's just a blob
>>558749906Trying to micro even 20 units in pretty much any total war game isn't usually fun.
>>558740290>Autoresolve only with a "fleet" of ships that have no 3d modelsThat's just naval battles in medieval 2 or earlier.
>>558749906then just send individual units in and accept the casualties they takeeither they want to win their glory no matter the risk or they've drawn your ire and get vanguard duty as a result
>>558749906You bring Karanak but no dogs.. You have a healing hero, archaon, Karanak, harald and 2nd lord to go in as elite team.
>>558751973i dont like dogs
.
>>558752739Well you picked the lord of melee blobs and got a hero that gives u dogs so your best option is dogs if u don't want melee blobs.Or you give Archaon 5 nurgle heroes with the heal and AoE debuff and mortis engine effects and run as a mini team through the world.

Huh, I didn't even notice that I had a free copy of WH3 in my library.Also, holy shit, this general has gotten slow.

>>558660906On other hand I hate brightfaggotry, memeshit and marvelslop wheadonsim. If it's not serious, then it's shit, it's a hard, unbreakable rule which applies to every book, movie and game in existence.Particular loathing I have for cucks who identify with evil faction, but then cope that their faction/leader isn't actually evil, instead of embracing the edge and cruelty.TWW1 was still overall ok dark fantasy, but TWW2 already turned into cringefest with 2 quirky comic relief, furfaggot races at that. And TWW3 in particular is grave with Kislev and Cathay which shouldn't even exists>>558672132We already knew about this. You could start battle and see two Ork clans battling each other, or suddenly Eldar would teleport behind you and attack everyone to achieve some goal.>>>>558674497kino>>558688201Extremely. Not only is the setting flat superior in every way, all of the sovlful features they showcased and described already are fantastic. Everything from proper unit upgrades and customization, destruction, generated and premade campaigns both, actual faction diversity and so on and now it turns out even Naval battles aren't written off. Lmao, that will be true successor to Med2. Total War is healing.

They are semi-sentient, part organic and part mechanical monsters that slowly drift along on anti-gravitic motors.Anyone unfortunate enough to be caught by a Talos will by rapidly dissected by an array of manipulators, scalpel-keen claws and surgically sharp tools. As the Talos gruesomely flays its victim layer by layer, it feeds and draws every removed part into itself, invigorating itself with even greater power as well as at the same time putting on an amusing display of torture for its owner. After battle the constituents of its victims are siphoned out from within its metallic shell and used by the Haemonculi to create exotic potions and elixirs.[1] However due to the mastery of biochemistry the Haemonculi wield, they can often bring these victims back later for questioning or torture.[2]

I thought of a cool idea, doubt it could be done though. I wish I could give a volley fire command to have multiple missile units fired at the same time. Sort of similar to giving a locked group an attack command. Maybe if it was implemented it would use the grouping function too.Lining up my gunpowder units isn't quite the same, especially after the first volley. And it wouldn't work for just gunpowder. I love seeing huge swarms of arrows from elves and such. It would just help add a cool effect. Im probably also not the first person to think of this, I bet there's a mod out there already

>>5585783191) There is no cavalry, which is an immediate removal of a major appealing unit type. A reason for my may-or-may-not-deliver modding project is in part the presence of cavalry in the 8th-7th century.2) Chariot warfare has never been big for players/always had a feeling of jankiness3) Release was three factions in essence (Hittites, Canaanites, Egypt). 4) Ancient Egypt's popularity is not military - it's artwork, mythology, brown catgirls and jackal girls, music, aesthetics, brown catgirls and jackal girls. Egypt had 4 lords in release, and was probably 50% of the campaign map. 5) As anons said the historical playerbase favors Europe (or Japan). Troy did well both in downloads and in sales according to Sega's own documents because of that European connection (Even if the Trojans are in Asia they have an association in European mythology).6) Mythos was a lost opportunity as this mitigates people's dislike - you'd get Age of Mythology situation, you'd be able to expand into Norse or Iran or India (Saaars) or celts and so on. There was very little expansion for Pharaoh after the Sea people DLC. Most likely it'd have been into the Aramaeans, proto-Urartu and Elamites but those guys have jack and shit for material in the period. They already were leaning hard into Neo-Assyrian motifs for Assyria, which is 400-500 years prior to Pharaoh. The way to have fixed it is to have had Troy release in mythos mode and then have a historical option, Pharaoh being the same and appended to it as an ME. Now you've got all those mythology nerds sitting up being interested in playing as their husbando Anubis or having Gilgamesh and Enkidu take turns smacking the shit out of a Hittite Sea Dragon while Teshub is rolling over to smote them with lightning bolts from his thunder-bull chariot.

>>558833671400-500 years after* not prior.Point is the pop cultural history people are interested in is not this esoteric area beyond some passing memetic references of Sea People or the aformentioned egyptian waifus.>>558824196I'll try them with the tigermemes but I just can't get over the gender choice. I remember booting it up and expecting the male melee female ranged, except peasant bowmen are male and your male line troopers can also have female voicelines. So it felt like one of those battlefield WW2 or recent battlefield footages where there's more women screaming than at a Taylor Swift concert. Kislev didn't feel as severe with that

>>558833671>There is no cavalryThe thing is that they added anachronistic cavalry to a few factions anyway.
>>558834818Neat, thanks. I had some that helped remedy that before but I got burnt out on WH3, so I'll play Cathay later. I liked one chinaman mod I found but they had same face syndrome, no pun intended. I prefer a more heterodox look to my armies
>>558805610https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4bGCIKkEa0
>>558835995I'd heard because CA pushed them. I'd autistically poured over the records and there's enough wiggle room to have justified them for the Mycenaeans, Hittites and Canaanites and even Egyptians though for the latter three just as light scout-y cavalry. The cimmerians are the real absurdity as they are there 400 years early. And to be frank I am still generally suspicious of the Mycenaean theories of cavalry. But if they had gone with a scale range of ~400 years for inspirations then they could have dipped into the abundance of the 800s. That said what they seem to have done is instead gone 200 years into the past and future with some helmets they used dating to the 1000s, and stuff like the big Mycenaean/Minoan shields from the past.I am curious how they solve the dilemma of turns vs years passed in Medieval 3. M2 had a novel solution of asymmetry where the year ingame did not match the year of your age. It was something like 1 year for character age is 2 years ingame. So 50 turns is 100 years. Or it was higher. If they can really embrace the CK/GSGism then I think they can make it so you'll want to keep playing. Or alternatively a wild ideas-guy thought would be some kind of a chronological hot seat campaign. Once you start a campaign you've created a timeline. And if you select "Change Dynasty" then you can switch your faction (a limit of how often you can do this, say once every 50-100 years, or you can't switch back, or you have to wait 25-50 turns).So you start playing 1100 to 1145 as England, then switch to Outremer, then in 1210 switch to Khwarezem.

I understand why Archaon and every other chaos undivided character across both fantasy and 40k all hate these stupid assholes
>>558844978wh1 Archaon in the big 26. might I ask why?
>>558845032Horses, charge the dreadnaught!!!>horse gore noisesYeah, fantastic idea. I doubt they'll ever add those to the game.
>>558845370never played wh1 archaon before
>>558844978The good old times when archaon chan clipped through his neck armor and his horse was tiny.But he also sucked ass. The faction was was way stronger tho.
>>558845475>Horses, charge the dreadnaughtYes.Their lances are explosive and they want to die.
>>558844489Orks and Guards will have cav.
>they can't add cavalry, what if they need to fight armor?
>>558845838That is very sad.>>558846496Nuh uh>>558846558That rusty bucket hardly compares to the armor 40k has. I mean there are titans and bio titans..
>>558845032you love to see it
>>558846880A dude on a horse with a sword shouldn't be killing daemon-possessed mecha the size of a large building, yet they do in TWWH.There's no argument against cavalry in TW40K.
>>558833180I miss when we used to get cool trailers like this : (
>>558848161But that's dumb. Horsies poking at an emperor titan is just weird af.
>>558848969Doesn't matter, they already kill giant daemon engines with swords.
did they say anything worth saying in this?
watching it now and this guy seems nervous
>>558477796Ult them off of cooldown every single time
they should stop updating wh3 already so people can create a giant patch and balance it so its not just a complete fucking powercrept mess of instant win buttons across all the new factions
How to Thorgrim? Turtle once Skarsnik is killed and deeps are built up? Or attack attack attack? If I try to expand I get spread too thin because I can only have 2 full stacks if I want to build some settlements up.

im trying to win my archaon campaign but franz and elspeth are shitting out 4 new stacks each of outriders every turn
>>558727585Glad MonsterAbound does a campaign with that, wish he wasn't a lib but alas
>>558845492It feels better. You are the only guy shitting out chaos corruption so you feel like the bringer of the end times. In wh3 order collapses pretty fast and you poop rainbow cartoon corruption. It's okay but you don't feel like the one spreading death anymore.

Something something Malekith Darklands.>>558847108There's better footage to convey the intimidation of cavalry but you can still feel it with the weight there.

It's why I figure when cavalry actually did hit an enemy formation it was not>Break through a solid shield wallbut rather break through an increasingly disjointed mob.
>>558873363I don't mind the corruption itself despite being more cartoony and less destructive feeling but seeing multiple types of corruption co exist next to each other on the map feels strange.
