I guess third time's the charm, friends.Thanquol soon, friends!
>>563419205>>563416754OPs are an important part of a thread's culture. A vandalized OP is evidence of a general that lost.
Asur rule the threads!
Keep this one alive. Also Neferata's toes soon, mortals!
>knife earsThis isn't the thread bros
Knife ears(light) are better than Knife ear(dark) and whatever the fuck was going on in the other thread.
>>563419374In what does it cultivate a thread culture and encourage discourse?
It's over
Knife ears(green) are better than Knife ear(undead) and whatever the fuck was going on in the other thread.
How does a general that takes a week to hit bump limit still have multiple people trying to shitpost and fuck up the op? Honestly i'm surprised the indonesian vtuber shitposter didn't also throw his hat in the ring.
the power of male pattern autism, my friend
male pattern autism won btw
tranny pattern vandalism lost bigly
yes it did a vandalized but superfluous OP made people anxious and perturbed enough that they waited for a 3rd thread. it is curious, sincerely it is
>>563418835
>>563419938>Good OP= Good stimmies>Bad OP= Bad stimmies
>>563419938Trashed OP = Trashed Thread

>>563418835If this real thread ? Why no link to it in previous thread ?
>>563421446Because it died just as I made the thread. I was cooking dinner so I didn't get a chance to make it earlier.
>>563421446Because I was too busy malding over the state of the other two threads and had to change my diaper.
You lost btw OPchuds won.
im stimming
>>563421961Same chudbro
Maybe if we make a 4th threads CA will reward us with news ?
You're laughing. Gacha generals are being bumped off and you're laughing.
ok but why can't we have a Nippon DLC?
I struggle to defeat the auto-generated AI army in skirmish mode, and often lose against it
Three fucking threads you absolute retarded monkey fucking faggots!!
>>563426973>monkey sex
we have a lot of anons so we need more generals to accomodate the large influx of posts

Anyone got good audiobook recs for warhammer? I'm enjoying the gotrek & Felix books so far
>You can use lighting strike while defendingWhat the fuck
>>563439024
>>563439024Counter attack
>>56343678240k included? Watcher of the Throne series, the necron ones (Twice Dead King & The Infinite and the Divine), Watcher in the Rain, but idk how good The Lords of Silence audiobook's quality, though.
OURGUY IS LIVE!!!https://youtu.be/6PZrTDQwgs8
>pear golemno
>>563440237isn't that the guy who fucks ladyboys and posts about it on twitter?
Does the AI not consider garrisoned Black Arks when attacking settlements? I conquering Ulthuan right now and they keep trying to retake their ports with armies that lose decisively in auto-resolve because of the army inside the garrisoned Black Ark.
>>563441832No, I don't think the AI will consider it even if you put an army docked at a settlement.
>>563439024You just need to counter-attack faster than their reinforcements are marching.
how is this a pyrrhic victory it thinks my blue guys are niggers
>>563447448I've been getting phyrric AR vs shitty nurgle settlements with a dwarf army that was supported by a lvl 30+ lord, 2 thunderbarges, cannons and high tier rank 9 infantriesThe game went into full retard mode
>>563448069ca will work on a fix once we send in our feedback.
>>563449351ca will only work on a fix once they get review bombed for 8 months straight and even then, only if people havn't forgot afterwards
>>563429724>Shitty dead general>Still finds a way to make 3 fucking threads.
not really enjoying archaons campaign tbqhwhy are all the dark fortresses at the very top of the map? i spent like 80 turns just slogging through the bad guys factions (dark elves, other chaos, norsca) then when i get to kislev and the empire which is where i really want to be, there's like a handful of dark fortresses to take? then when i want to take their settlements i can only build a single building in it, making it incredibly easy for the enemy to just retake it. so i raze it, they still retake it. the fuck>just take everything as vassalsi would but this shit feels hilariously undercooked. i made boris ursus my vassal and nothing about him changed. like, at all. he's the same dude, except now he starts painting the map his color and gives me some gold per turn. that's it? it would have been so sick if his appearance changed, or his demeanor (he still has the exact same voice lines) to show that he's being corrupted, or his units somehow changed. but nah, he's just boris ursus lol.i also took the minor norscan factions as vassals but they don't do anything. at best, they *sometimes* follow the orders i give them. mostly they just ignore them completely
>>563425809How? Is it just 0 apm gameplay?
>After nearly two months of fighting to open up the strait of Lothern for use by his black arks, Malekith has now announced he's actually going to blockade it himself because the asur were finally opening it up.I have no idea what kind of strategy the Witch King of Naggaroth is employing.
>>563429724>generals with soulful /twg/ related art losing to AI chinks slopYeah this general is dead. Grim days ahead.
>>563453270If you think that's bad, in TWW1, you didn't have Dark Fortresses. You couldn't have any settlements as Chaos, you could only raze or sack them, which didn't do anything as the AI could resettle them faster you could raze them. Also you had almost zero replenishment and if you ever lost your army, you also lost all of your recruitment buildings you spend the entire campaign building up to, so even a single defeat could and would end your campaign.In short, the game is poorly thought out and they've been trying to fix their old dumb mistakes for years while constantly making new, even dumber mistakes.
>>563456228yeah i do remember chaos in wh2 (didnt play wh1) and it was pretty much as you described. i feel like wh3 is a vast improvement and it's so close to being perfect but it's held back by questionable and frustrating things
>>563453581flying units just rush and obliterate my backline, it's a downward spiral afterwards
>>563454462>Grim days ahead.Grave days, perhaps?
Keeping this general alive is hard work.
>>563471019kill themraise them
>>563418835I respect that the ovn mods try to keep their factions balanced, but good god Albion needs a stronger economy.
Waiting for Bhashiva.
>>563472327More like BrapSHITva.
>>563472327Same but because of map expansion.
>>563457209You're supposed to leave cavalry or monsters in your backline to counter dive the bats or dogs
>>563477419Do you think they'll add some of Ind?
for me it's the Reese's Pieces helmets
>>563478230They have to. They cant replace a minor faction with Bashiva because there is none that isnt a designated player faction food.
/twg/ is going to die before Skulls happensHow did this place even end up so slow in the first place?Last time I visited this place was raving about Legend and debating whether or not 40k would actually happen.
>>563482695>Basically a 10 years old game>No news>No content>99.9% of anons here play single player>content creators who remain are retards, has-beens or v-tumors.So yeah basically its all ratfags' fault.
none can escape the D formation
blobs vs blobs, no spells
>>563487026Vgh, the Rome experience
>>563482695There's nothing to discuss for single player and the mp sisters are all on discord
>>563479186buttercups, buttercup
fact: no artillery piece should be capable of predictive firingfact: no artillery piece should be able to snipe targets smaller than gaints/dinos/dragons, and even then, they must be 50% within rangefact: models smaller than the ones listed previously should die instantly when hit by a cannonball, yes this includes heroes and lords as wellfact: all artillery pieces should apply fear/terror to both friendly and enemy units near the impact zone, even if it's a miss
fact: I don't read posts that begin with "fact" because they're always dumb
>>563492975>yes this includes heroes and lords as wellFuck off, Malekith can tank cannonballs. The armor isn't just for show.
get fact
>i can tank cannonballs because my armor is le hard and heavy and my intestines won't turn into slurry from blunt force traumaseethe
>>563493579Magic enchantments that negate the force of impacts exist in warhammer fantasy.
>>563493579It's magic armor fused to his skin and makes him impervious to pretty much anything that isn't magical, and highly resistant to even magical stuff. It was literally in his rules that he couldn't be one-shotted, unlike say Archaon who could theoretically die to a single cannonball, though that was unlikely.
>>563493691>>563493758sure, fair enough, exceptions can be made as long as they're lore accurate
Okay but we need 5k hp lords and heroes because coding in retinues would be way too dificult for a small indie company like CA
>>563493279ET Malekith becomes invulnerable to any attack as long as he's moving. He would become Legend's favorite lord just because of this. Doubt CA has the balls to actually give him this passive ability considering he doesn't have a single of his TT abilities in the game to this day.
>>563493579>Dragons can fly despite them having too low wing to body mass ratio>Mages can create energy from thin air violating thermodynamic laws of energy>OP is not a faggotseethe
>>563492975AI heroes and lords would be hilarious free kills if this was the case.
News? A pittance of news?
>>563441228Probably, I wouldn't be surprised, but he mostly seems to lust after Vtubers
>>563493579Magic armor/weapons in Warhammer are a completely different league from anything else. The highest tiers of them literally disintegrate weapons or bullets before they even hit you.
>>563495542>Mages can create energy from thin air violating thermodynamic laws of energyThey don't create it from thin air, they are drawing it from the Realm of Chaos. Hence why they are weaker when the winds carrying it from the poles are weaker.
what a bad idea bhashiva is, jesus christ, is there anyone excited for this trash? it has nothing to do with china so they don't give a shit, the females have male bodies so coomers don't give a shit, no wonder they're delaying the announcement, methinks they understood what total garbage bhashiva is
>>563497996It's also shitty OC by CA that contradicts what little had been established about the tiger people (henceforth known as teople) of Ind, so it doesn't appeal to the fans of the setting.
>>563497996>>563498126And to top it all off, the only given lore to Bashiva is "every time the white tigers try to 1v1 the Everchosen, and every time they fail and die".What, was the Monkey King just too obvious and fun?
>>563497996I just hate the fact they aren't beastmen. CA and GW are cowards.
>>563498789Them being a creation of the old ones seems extremely out of place.>old ones create lizardmen as flesh automatons to labor for them>old ones then create elves, dwarfs, humans, halflings and ogres clearly from a common ancestor for anti-chaos experiments>bestial humanoids(beastmen, harpies, minotaurs, skaven, apemen) are otherwise primordial or chaos creaturesThen you have the tigermen which are creatures of order despite them resembling beastmen instead of the humanoids the old ones had a habit of creating. If anything, they should have been fleshed out as tomb kings-style neutral and primordial or just eastern beastmen.
>>563500648>old ones create lizardmen as flesh automatons to labor for themLorelet retard>old ones then create elves, dwarfs, humans, halflings and ogres clearly from a common ancestor for anti-chaos experimentsLiterally making shit up! Warhammer fags are so retarded
>>563501891this picture describes me
>>563500648>eastern beastmen.That what's they were in the old lore, although it was established they weren't quite as evil.
>>563501891So lizardmen, humans, elves, dwarfs, etc weren't created by the old ones.
IAM THE CHOSENOF THE GODS
>>563502158>>563500648they don't belong in cathay as a faction and in fact are going to shit up their roster, since these units will be available all cathayans, we'll see tigershitters that will ruin the chinese feel of the cathay roster they fit the beastmen a bit better, but even there they would ruin the feel of the beastmen roster, they don't fit very much with goats and bulls eithermy solution would be a system of subraces that don't share the entire roster with the main race, this could also allow the implementation of other subfaction, some sort of eastern norscans could be implemented (the hung) for example, so the chinese don't fight fantasy vikings but fantasy mongols for example
>>563502742If TWWH still had the same mercenary system as rome or med2 they'd just be a mercenary unit that appears in the recruitment pool if your army is around ind.
>>563503056in rome or med2 mercs were reused tho, making tigers as only mercenaries would a waste of resources
>>563503132The mercenary pools in those games had plenty of unique units you didn't normally have access to.
>>563503261their assets weren't unique, they were just a combination of different assets from different units
>>563503334Well most unit models across the various nations weren't unique either.
>>563502158theyre pretty evil, they demand worship or they kill you, sometimes theyll just kill you
>>563504164Yeah, which I would classify as less evil than "they always kill you". The very fact that they can somewhat co-exist with human civilization already puts them above regular Beastmen.
>the Hung
>>563502207>Lizardmen aren't bio-robots>The other races don't share common ancestors. The Old Ones genetically modified already pre-existing races
>>563504902>"Yes, my son, you must establish your new kingdom right next to this particular tribe of humans, this is of the utmost importance."
>>563502158>not evil
Do you think Bhashiva has had ever observed shiva and seder? does it celebrate yom kippur?
LL for this feel?
>>563505197Lizardmen are mass produced from automated spawning pools and have their societal roles predetermined by race, the races' bodies and minds fine tuned to their roles by the old ones.Elves, humans and dwarfs did not exist before the old ones arrived, they were explicitly created by the old ones.The races that predated the old ones generally being ignored or the targets of genocidal campaigns by the old ones' lizardman armies to make the world better suited to the designs of the old ones.
how do you play normal Dwarfs
>>563507387Tretch
>>563507539shield infantry and gunsor just slayers
>>563507387Karl Franz(Forma de Encarnación de Sigmar)
>>563508136There should be a mod when Karl Franz wields the evil sword he slowly turned into Archaon 2. Would be kino.
>>563507387Big G.
>>563508241I think they made that game already, it was called "Warcrafter 3" or something
>>563508324Yeah but it doesn't change his appearance.
>>563506756I didn't say they weren't evil, I said that they weren't as evil as regular Beastmen, which is true.
I’m planning a campaign where I declare war on everyone, should I play as Arbaal, Skulltaker, or Skarbrand?
>>563510265Settraeveryone already hates him and he has enemies on literally every side by default
So what happened to legend of total war?
>>563507539Ina corner of the map you put a line of warriors in front, a line of ranged infantry behind them, max out the speed and go get yourself a coffe/watch paint dry will the battle runs
>>563511418Legend was actually a duo project between the man and his hairline and they had a falling out.
the masque is the most fun i've had in a long timeso refreshing to play without any ranged desu
>>563511418Corrupted by Khorne.
>>563511418he's set for life, has a wife and 2 babies and a house with an indoor pool. He retired on the last NYE despite hinting at reorienting his channel to focus on EU5.
>>563507387>Randomly breaks alliances or declares wars with races he perceives weakSkaven definitely
>>563515039Greenskins and dark elves also do that.In fact malekith is infamous for doing exactly that.
>>563513890>so refreshing to play without any ranged desuEver tried a Har Ganeth/Crone Hellebron campaign?Going all in on the melee infantry aspect of the Dark Elves roster with Hellebron's buffs to Witch Elves/Sisters of Slaughter/Har Ganeth Executioners was a lot of fun for me. It was a nice change from just lazily going with the usual Darkshard spam too.
Any good mod to auto locate skill points in a certain order? it really gets quite tedious in the late game
>>563513890slaanesh is still my favorite battle faction, controlling all those little shits and doing my best to juggle like eight glass cannons at the same time is extremely fun
how do no artillery factions siege? just yolo past the towers peppering your troops?
>>563519038the VC's have a strong air force with which to attack defenders on the walls from behind once your deadites have engaged them from the front
>>563519038you spend time shooting at towers and the walls? i just run at the walls and the gates as fast as possible and cast spells and shit

>>563520003It works too well for tabletop though

>>563519038Magic.
>>563517039Though for me, the skill queue mod is even too much of a bother. I use this instead which removes getting a point every level in favor of getting 5 skill points every 5 levels.It makes finally getting those points and allocating them a lot more satisfying without the every single turn tedium of making completely inconsequential one point allocations.https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=3337785642

>>563536215I just like his concept as a character. Utterly despicable traitor. Much like a skaven but in human form and can't crutch it out with warpstone macguffins. Also he hates china so that already puts him in the top 10 of LLs in the game.
>>563522006thanks thats good
>>563535821however, consider>where is Krell?
you know who I am?
Lots of people say "Where is Krell?" or "Who is Krell?" but nobody ever asks "How is Krell?"
>>563537785I hate to be the one to inform you that not only is he dead, but probably languishing in some pocket dimension of Kemmler's choosing most of the time
>>563537990Not for long.
>>563537785I never liked they changed him from a chaos champion to a willing servant of fagash, just to prop him up. What a downgrade.
>>563533427what about slambo?

>>563538432Modern GW hates Slambo.
>>563538695no...
>>563538665That would remove the entire game lmao. The trailers don't have a single model from before 9th edition.
>>563538842Yes. And?
>literally any other gunpowder faction: build recruitment building and recruit shooty infantry>chorfs: ummmmm we need raw materials (building slot), then we need to make armaments (building slot), then we need gold (building slot), then we need the recruitment building, then we need to increase shooty infantry capacity by +1 by waiting 10 rounds for enough armaments, and then we can recruit one shooty infantry unit <((|:E
>>563539337they're not that hard, you crybaby, just prioritize raw materials first
Which one, /twg/?
>>563538313They should have gone with Nagash's original model.
>>563542391I launched Pharaoh and ended up asking myself the same question. Couldn't find a clear answer so I uninstalled it. I'll try it someday.
>>563543716Damn bro.Anyway, I went Babylon. My main reason to pick Assyria that I was considering was that they get cavalry, but then I noticed Babylon's area also has cavalry through the native roster.
>>563418835I think its pretty clear most actual fans want a historical title. Even with all the dumb redditor Warhammer secondaries skewing the results, the vote is still almost 50/50.
>>563536215Designed according to modern "campaign ends by turn 30" meta. Buffs Marauders to Chosen tier, gets Mammoth, fully buffed gelt -tier spells and Tzeentch's Changing of Ways (but better).

>>563544178The reddit secondaries are the ones that vote for Med3 bro. Those are the same sheep that wanted historical games and then don't buy them. If chinks didn't exist 3K would be just another flop in the histocial lineage post Rome 2(also a flop).

There are far more Chinese and Indian people than there are Europeans and Americans.You need to come to terms with the fact that future historical titles will need to focus on Asia.
>>563545968I won't be playing them. Chinese military history is a joke.
Maybe developers could stop spending $100 million+ on a single AAA title.
>>563542391Ninurta for free chariot mounts for generals
>>563542391Ninurta is the "I want to kill everyone" option. Adad-Shuma-Asad is the "everything wants to kill me option".
>>563545781Based if not lewd.Based if lewd
>>563550008It has a peasant theme.
>>563550495Peasant like Repanse ?
>>563551890No, more like peasants like men-at-arms.
>>563552596
>>563542391>NinurtaYou start in the thunderdome and have to murderfuck your way out of the hole. You have main roster sappers that let you autoresolve sieges instantly instead of needing to build siege equipment for several turns and you unlock the ability to give all your generals chariot mounts.>AdadComfy corner campaign where you slow-roll some weak enemies and then work your way up the rivers until you're unstoppable. You have special recruitment elite sappers but they cost gold upkeep. Your slave soldiers are the most cost-effective mainline infantry in the game as long as there's a slavemaster nearby to buff them.Babylon is kind of shit because it's a single-settlement province and doesn't have enough building slots to make that make sense.Adad is like playing an island campaign in an old TW game. You're basically never under threat and can just pick off enemies one by one at your leisure. There is no true island campaign because water in this game is just land but boring. Ninurta is pretty much the center of the map and can expand in any direction but you'll spend the first 50 turns fighting tooth and nail against all the assholes dogpiling you. Since there's no easy path to expand to the map's boundaries, you're going to be threatened on all sides for most of the game so it's probably the hardest major faction.
>>563423843Chinks are against it. They're still mad over shit that happened 100 years ago.
Seems like I missed some general drama. Was it just multiple bakes, or did a thread die prematurely
>>563553482I did start Adad and it's kind of impressive how much of a steamroll it's been so far. I've already become King of the Universe and have secured the whole southern side of the Tigris/Euphrates delta.Haven't useed Siluhlus though, the akkadian roster is just so incredible I haven't felt the need to build their recruitment building.

Can Ogres detect a difference between the taste of the flesh of Dark Elves, High Elves, and Wood Elves, or is it all the same to them? Also in lore are there any meetings between Ogres and Dark Elves and High Elves? I know there's that passage about the Ogres and Wood Elves stomping a Greenskin army together.
>>563560503they DGAFit is stated that Ogres don't mind the company of Chaos Ogres, even the Nurglish ones who eat roadkill because meat is meat
>>563558721Alright I never played the american faction what do they play like?
>>563560667Some ogres even get jealous because mutations like more arms or more mouths mean they can eat faster.
>>563515353i'll look into that next!

Gddamn I wish they could fix even half the retarded bugs in this game. Every time I start enjoying a campaign some retarded shit happens.like the stacking bug and FUCK this shit.I can even kind of stomach the game being a snoozefest by turn 40 sometimes.
>>563558153>mfw it's all peasant shit
Remember the Virtue of Empathy, brothers.Love even the meanest of peasants, for even they are sons and daughters of Bretonnia!
>>563568302What about the ones that date e*ves

>>563542391Babylon is objectively the superior civilization, only jews disagree
>>563501891>dosentAlso Guilliman has never been anyone's favorite primarch
>>563577881GW did their best to make the Imperium look like the good guy.
>>563563094>I can even kind of stomach the game being a snoozefest by turn 40 sometimes.Current patch is pretty good for midgame AI. They actually kinda fixed the ai blobbing and waiting thing.
>>563568302Bretonnia still don't have Foot knights
>>563582213and by ze lady it never will
>>563585002
>>563585002nice try dawitard, but we all know the chorfs are the true chudsgoogle just told me so
>>563539337that's what I like the most about them, genuinely funny resource management campaign-mechanic, and it incentivizes you to expand towards certain areas with particular resources (like marble, obsidian or iron) over others.
>>563585503Chorfs are just angrier Dawi.
And chuds are just angrier gamers.
>>563585002Chuds only talk about tradition never actually stick to it.Beastmen are the most chud-coded faction btw.

been waiting for a fucking eternity for bretonnia and VC to get a proper update please for the love of the lady CA just give us our fucking updates you lazy cunts
What Total War should I buy? I have played Napoleon, Empire, Shogun 2 and Medieval 2
>>563590441Probably one of the bulgarian total wars. I haven't played it yet but dynasties seems to gives you the most bang for your buck, you should still give fantasy a try in my opinion.
test
>>563590441>Rome 1It's one of the classic good TW games so if you liked Medieval 2 you'll like it as well. It shares a lot of the same issues that M2 has.>AttilaThe last good historical TW game. Significantly different from the classics so there will be a considerable learning curve. Generally regarded as the hardest or most punishing TW game. It runs like ass but there's some mods on the workshop that help optimize it.After Attila CA just kind of settled into this model of shitting out an endless parade of Warhammer DLC and squeezing out a terrible historical side-game every once in a while. I don't think any of those are worth playing.
Legendary Lords that have interesting stats:Cylostra has 0 armourAislinn has 77 melee defenceSkarbrand has 85 melee attackQueek has 35 bonus vs infantryKu'gath has 14800 healthN'Kari has 100 speedSigvald has 100 leadership but not unbreakableMorghur has 75% missile resistanceCylostra has 55% physical resistanceBonus fact: Mannfred has 2 spell lores
Most of you probably already know that Nagash is going to have a unique spell lore...but did you know that Helman Ghorst already has a unique spell that replaces his raise Zombie with raise Grave Guard?
>>563595221a year ago I made a screenshot about this, it's always baffling to face him in battle with a ranged based army
Snake women of Khuresh should look like this
>>563595221>Bonus fact: Mannfred has 2 spell loresI expect his choice of spells will be cut in half later this year. If he's getting a unique mount and reworking VC in general they're gonna have to revisit his skill tree.
>>563597807>not using jezzailanon...
>>563597938I like this mango but the pedophilia gets a bit much at times.
>>563595349>but did you know that Helman Ghorst already has a unique spellWhoever at CA that was proposed it and chose not to give Kemmler his unique LoM should be sent to Sentinel Island, holy shit.
>>563598070you can clearly see I'm using it? it's next to the other two ranged units there, you can even see the dark green trail from their bullet trajectory. If you mean for the ammo still there I was just being conservative during the battle.
What kind of goals and personality would suit a Tomb Kings society-focused story? I plan to include some living characters from Numas, with Settra the Imperishable serving as a sort of substitute father figure for a young girl. I want him to have grand ambitions, but not be some incompetent ruler seeking praise for nothing—rather, he should earn recognition through impressive deeds. He still desires everything he was promised in life buy the Mortuary Cult , and he does not want his subjects to remain mindless automatons, but to retain individuality and purpose among the average Tomb people.https://www.fanfiction.net/story/story_edit_property.php?storyid=14479983
>>563598868>Settra the Imperishable serving as a sort of substitute father figure for a young girlThis just doesnt make sense. Settra thinks bigger than caring for individuals. He s a statesman/god. Story of an Imperial emissary trying to learn from Settra about statecraft, politics and history would be kino tho.
>>563598868just as >>563599617 said, but I think you can substitute Settra for Prince Tutankhanut, because the nomads at Numas also serve him alongside the undead.https://warhammerfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Tutankhanut

Thank Christ they finally decided to improve steam's GW catalogue with some oldhammer kinoRecommend Mark of Chaos, Dark Omen and Shadow of the Horned Rat to anons here that haven't played them
>>563603331>Mark of ChaosReminder that they have Skaven that can climb walls
>>563603331Chaos Gate is good if you like xcom, and Rites of War if you like old school wargames like panzer general (it is literally panzer general 40k reskin with eldar).And I'd get them on gog. Chaos Gate was literally unplayable on anything above windows 98 and they fucking made it work.
>Click on Archeon to see what units he has>"ASSHOLE WILL PUNISH YOU!"huh?
>>563603331I kinda want to give Mark of Chaos a try because the russians ripped a whole shit-tonne of models for Call of Warhammer from there
>>563603331Would would you EVER buy these games on Steam instead of GOG, are you retarded? They have been out on GOG for a decade and you only care now because it's steam?

>>563418835If I wait 10 turns, the Dawi turn on me and declare war, alongside the barkies.10 turns are not enough to move my 10 doomstacks to the front.How do I win this?
>>563606080you know the answer already.
>>563606080You lose a couple of settlements at worst and have to disband 1 army.
>>563606080
>>563606004They do, they added em for 40K games and will add them in following weeks for fantasy
Haven't played in years but I've come across an old folder of my webms so I'm dumping them for nostalgia sake.
>>563605012Oh I did play them pirated + later replayed on GoG, just took the opportunity to recommend them now that they've hit steam.
Nevermind, 4chin is slow as fuck today, I'm out
>>563585251You can easily tell it's trying to (poorly) match factions to your thesis and barely understands what it's supposed to be talking about. There is nothing communist about Skaven.

I think my greatest weakness as a Total War player has always been that I don't know at what rate to pump out new armies and of what quality for each new one to not tank my economy.

>>563611532To be a minmaxxing faggot it's always best to stay as close to 0 income as you can, because fighting battles generates gold and taking more settlements means more gold because the lower tier income buildings are more efficientBut getting your constant new territory in decent shape stalls getting those high tier units out and makes the campaign more boring
