Things that beat Chosen in melee infantry combat on VH/VH:

>Volkimar-buffed Flagellants
>Ironbreakers and Hammerers
>Ungrim-buffed Giant Slayers and Doomseekers
>Queek-buffed Stormvermin
>Snikch-buffed Eshin Triads and Death Runners
>Black Orcs with all Scrap Upgrades
>Phoenix Guards and Swordmasters of Hoeth
>Full tech tree Saurus Warriors
>Cathays entire infantry (Yin-Yang buffs)
>Tzar Guards
>Aspiring Champions, Wrathmongers
There, now can we stop acting like Chosen are "endgame" units for infantry? It isnt WH1 anymore, they havent been the standard for "elite infantry" for years at this point.

Pretty sure the intention was that Asuryan was so weak only someone like Malekith that carried his flame inside of himself was able to even reignite his fire. Malekith despite the claims of being "too weak" to pass the flames carried a living flame of Asuryan in him most of his life. This is the reason he was defeated by Teclic during the invasion in the first place. He was weakened by the divine flames not some spell of Teclis. Which also answers the question of "Asuryan can't be that weak so a mage can control his flames" He is THAT weak and elven mages can control his flames and it's part of the protection ritual for new Phoenix Kings. This is on top of the fact Malekith was conceived by a avatar of Asuryan which gave him immense height and strength beyond any elf(he's quite literally has the highest strength stat of any elf in the tabletop too). So that part of him being chosen isn't that strange at all. It was build upon years of existing lore.

Only in his army, and with all his buffs, they become really tanky due to their melee def and any AP used on them is useless when they have 0 Armor, endgame infantry is basically all about AP so using them against Volkmars Flagellants is a losing battle, and thats not including the crazy FCM and Empire Knights buffs that make them just as good as Flagellants in their respective roles. A bit of a nuanced take from probably an Empire fag trying to justify why Teutogen Guards should be as strong as Chosen like they currently are.

Alright, so! Clearly the strategy angle isn't waiting right now, but we can still bring in a tried and true formula, and this time for sure we can me the Stormcast Eternals enter the mainstream. The answer has been staring at us the whole time.

I'm now imagining Kruber, Saltzpyre, maybe even Sienna getting turned into Stormcast

They fucking would have as well if it weren't so blatantly obvious GW have given up on AoS as anything but cool models that somebody might buy every now and then
>>
>>567445464
The main problem always was that those 'warriors' only appeal to feminist women and performative feminist 'men'.
Most women like cute and/or sexy characters so they can use them as an avatar, OR simply because they are pleasant to look at.
Most men find no appeal in AoS because it represents the inverse of masculinity while also having 0 tits.

You can point at some elf model all you want - humanity are always the protagonists of any scifi or fantasy for obvious reasons. At best, some anecdotal opinions and contrarians will deny it but they are and always will be, an extreme minority.

AoS fails at the very first hurdle. It is visually boring yet overly saturated. One of the best splash screens in WHTW has some Empire troops fighting undead with Gelt leading them - himself all covered in gold and clean riding a magical flying horse - but his troops, dirty, bloody, wounds both old and new show grit, desperation and genuine risk. It contrasts the undead as a serious enemy and the life threatening entity they are.

AoS is chock full of clean and shiny, armoured STRONK WOMAN! and others with designer haircuts requiring a modern hairdresser with 0 marks or damage to their pristine outfits and plate. Their weapons, especially the rank and file, are overdesigned WoW tier garbage.
Fantasy races can get away with it but without humanity and human centric realistic weapon designs as contrast they all look like foam pool toys.

It is a paint by numbers, bog standard Chinese mobile game fantasy aesthetic 'fantasy'. Except all the women are ugly and show no skin. It does not look like a setting where lives are lived and it is showcasing a battle or event from it. Instead it looks like a videogame. With characters spawned into an arena.

Why would they be stormcast? They aren't even empire soldiers in Vermintide. If it was a AoS game of simliar power level they would be cities of Sigmar citizens which wouldn't make the game any different than it is now with the exception of the posibility of having a dark elf in the team as they live among humans in AoS.

He's completely different from all of the other normal and legendary lords.
He could have a really distinct campaign too, if he has some kind of ambush and/or encamped stance, maybe he might even be a horde faction leader too.

I agree.
I want them to get a big wagon, like Volkmar's war altar of sigmar thing Maybe with a damsel on it, some bowmen, could be pulled by a bunch of battle pilgrims.

Fuck's sake.
>>
>>567504027
Did you read the book anon most of you complaints don't happen
>They put a cripple on a Pegasus (wheel chair meme)
That doesn't happen in the book. One knight gets crippled after falling from a high height fighting a big Vampire Counts monster, and is a paraplegic after that, and in the final battle they strap onto a normal horse to bait some Greenskins into attacking the Tomb Kings since everyone else was needed for the battle with the Tomb Kings who are really boring in this book and have zero charecterzasation
>one of the male knights is a gay pedophile is implied to partake in romantic episodes with his squire
This also doesn't happen in the book since the mention is from a damsel having schizo dreams about alternate futures, which won't happen since the Squaire dies before he can even be knighted. The scene was pointless and didn't add anything to the book other than introduce a random Dead Gay character who's never mentioned before or after that scene.
>hen you have the women knights not hiding their identity and being treated as a norm.
Yeah, it's dumb the fact Mcneil made them all Pegasus Knights made me think who played too much Fire Emblem and got the lore between those franchises mixed up since the lead Pegasus knight talks about being chosen by the Pegasus, which isn't something that happens in Warhammer.
The book is still pretty and bad, or at best mediocre, though its just your complaints about it were inaccurate

That's not true at all? Attila VH doesn't give the AI stat bonuses it just boosts their morale and allows them to rally more times before shattering. It just makes shit units perform better in melee because they stay in the fight longer before they rout and get slaughtered.

Which faction do you think most of us would play?
All of the WH factions are loosely based on some european culture and while the differences between haughty british sea elves and rugged slavic snow kingdoms are self evident to us, to those outside of the western culture sphere they're all just vaguely european and about as distinct and interesting to them as the differences between muslim caliph A, B and C are to us.
>>
>>567510897
Conversely, China is a huge nation and has many many regional cultural differences, but since the cultural revolution the CCP has devoted a lot of manpower into eliminating those differences and making China one big monoculture. They're doing this in their western provinces now by mass importing Han Chinese to Tibet and Xinjiang to outbreed the native Uyghur and Tibetans. It seems weird to imply "arr europe rook same" when China is literally doing that to themselves.

Being the old (=good) to aos' new (=bad) has given the fantasoids a sense of unearned grace to pretend their game wasn't chock full of gw's usual nonsense.

In rome you had the carthaginians which were culturally phoenician and had most of their territory outside of africa. There were the egyptians which were a mess but besides that were historically african geographically and had no elephants. That just leaves you with the numidians as the only african faction that has elephants. Pretty sure every faction in the expansions that had elephants weren't african either.
In medieval 2 neither the moors nor egyptians have elephants, the only faction that does are the timurids from asia.

So it was dead
No new kits, no new army books, ranges being squated, and all new releases focused on reworking parts of the old range into new gayer shapes
Playing on TT and getting RPG books that are just worse than the 2nd ed releases is not, in any way, warhammer fantasy being alive and unraped. Very secondary of you to think so.
Don't get me wrong, you could still engage with it, we had some WAP play here, but warhammer fantasy was more dead than it had ever been. Completely natural reaction for newly interested players to hate AoS

When TTW1 dropped Fantasy minis were selling for pennies. You should have bought the dip.
>>
>>567557174
Plenty of people played it. 8th edition doubling army sizes put a hit in numbers, but it saw far more play than AoS ever did. It sold better than any non-GW game.
The fact that there were two popular fan editions that had thousands of players around the globe, on top of EEFL players, shows the enduring popularity of WFB. The Old World mogging AoS and stealing their ranges is further evidence.
>>
>>567557124
Because new kits were good, especially in the era where sculpting technology was advancing rapidly.
Plenty of units many people now consider iconic are 8th edition originals, like demigryphs (which caused a shitstorm on release) or mournfang cavalry.
>>
>>567557174

>>567557529
Imaginary scenario. There are ex-GW employees that demistyfied the fall of Fantasy in simple terms. Minis weren't selling since 2007. It wasn't a problem of 7th or 8th edition. They just sold like shit to the point citadel water cups sold more in a moth than Fantasy in a year. AoS was selling exremely well too according to them so any cope about that will always be cope.

GW dosen't invest into products that don't sell. Jus stop embarrassing yourself by inventing stories about AoS being a commercial failure. You hate it. You don't play it but it still makes money. Simple as. I will be laughing if GW fold TOW bedore AOS and the cope that will generate.

Nta but even back in 2016:

This was when AoS as a game was at its absolute shittiest, with no points system and rules like "if you have a bigger moustache than your opponent you get +1 to wound" or whatever. It was barely a real game yet, it was a glorified transition period until the GHB dropped in late july of that year.
All of this probably reflects more on how absolutely DIRE the state of fantasy was at the time than any success of early AoS, but still.

Have you stopped for a moment to think that the games were just shit and the AoS crowd didn't want to play them? Did you play Warhammer Quest?
>>
>>567560016
Thats good and all, but you have to have people actually caring about your setting to have media about it.
And that is one thing AoS has failed spectacularly, people are buying the models because GW best sculptors work on it and they produce absolute works of art.
But nobody gives a fuck that dyke mctransvestite the mighty stormcuck of stormfuck killed fat fatso the champion of nurgle over at the swamps of bacon grease.
>>
>>567559168
Iirc most high elf stuff stuck around until 2020 because that's when gw launched their new high elf 2.0 but australian range
Dark elves you could buy 90% of the range until literally last month, a decade+ after the end times
Unless you wanted tomb kings and brets (which almost nobody did, hence the squats) you really had 0 issue buying models. In fact the introduction of start collecting boxes probably made that a good bit cheaper for a while too.

With warhammer fantasy it's the case that far more people engage with the setting than buy product.
With age of sigmar it's that everyone buys product but nobody engages with the setting.

Then why the fuck did you respond lol
Anyway I checked myself: they're actually pretty similar in terms of visitors (59k vs 69k) but the aos one does have a lot more posts than the fantasy one (1.2 k vs 3.3k respectively, in other words the aos one is 2.75 times as active as the whfb one)
I think this does support your hypothesis, the whfb reddit probably has (relatively) more visitors stopping by from related reddits (the total war or vermintide ones) who don't contribute, while the average aos visitor is more likely to be an active participant.
Still, in absolute numbers aos wins out in both metrics.

And Warhammer Fantasy and 40k is better? It's made by the same company. Shitting on AoS for being woke and acting like Fantasy and 40k isn't is hilarious given we now have female custodes, mixed gendered woman warriors in Kislev, Cathay and Brettonia, and order-aligned furry races that look right out of WoW.

Fantasoys really can't stop being deluded. If you want BASED franchises, anything from Games Workshop isn't for you.

Cathay still slays me for the absurdity that is
>All ranged above peasant bows are women
>All melee above peasants are mixed gender

Kislev's felt acceptable enough to me in that the amazonian coded unit is women, the dame knight hero is a woman, old witch is a woman, katarin is a woman, and they have women in the rank and file nomad types. It's excessive but just at the threshold. Cathay and just imagine if - honestly if they had done Bretonnia brand new circa 2020 they would make it Cathay esque. "Joan of Arc exists, so this is the Joan of arc faction where 75% of the cavalry are women"
>>
>>567569683
Cathay should have been all male melee and all female ranged, would have fit with the Yin and Yang theming as well.

Which is the most /fun/ 3k start date?
>>
>>567569898
Yeah I had always assumed they would be. For some reason my mind overlooked the peasants, and my campaigns were never taking me to the far east to begin with. Then I boot up a cathay army and it's women screaming and woman voiceovers for 75% of the time, even when I am using some jade warriors it felt like.

Always felt like there's a weird alliance of the ryona/guro enthusiasts and the yas qween slay crowd. I'm fine with women lords, sometimes even heroes and such and amazonian units like Sisters. Hell, in theory the helves could work with mixed gender armies since I think that's canonical. But you can always wiff out when something is more ideologically motivated and
>Cathay is just such an uncaring imperial machine it doesn't think in terms of men and women, it just views all humans as fodder
Is a retroactive logic which fails when one consides that Chaos has more reason to be mixed gender units to the point that I could argue Chaos doesn't just have reason to be Chaos 100% should be.

I know they'll do it in Medieval 3, already saw order of the hatchet for the Spanish. But I suspect the most egregious is just going to be a 50/50 chance of a femme leader for a place like France. It reminds me of Xcom EW/EU where you couldn't change your characters gender. EU was 66% male 33% female, EW made it unless you tweaked it more like 50/50 and it had the same phenomenon of 'this doesn't feel 50/50' that you get with RNG

190 obviously. 182 is undercooked and the other two are just whatever
>>
>>567570692
190 because it has the most shit. 182 is a buggy gimmick, 200 is only good if you want to get to a large empire 1v1v1 faster and 194 is good for two Sun Ce and Lu Bu runs and that's it.
>>
>>567570772
I don't think they'll do outright women faction leaders for Medieval 3 (although a regency mechanic until a son comes of age would actually be fine) but they absolutely are looking up every obscure group of women like Order of the Hatchet and promoting them to full units instead of the honorific orders for the defense of towns that they were and Jeanne d'Arc will definitely be a general. Probably some women mixed in with low tier units in Bedouin or tribal factions if they make it in too.

I have a Classics degree, know Ancient Greek and am not that anon, you're a faggot. As with any historical figure who did great things yeah Alexander had some luck, but he was an absolutely insane general and everyone who lived at that time and afterwards acknowledged it.
>>
>>567572551
Employing such insane tactics like
>I'm gonna charge them head on
>I'm gonna flank then charge
>I'm always gonna get in trouble doing this but be saved by my bodyguards and generals time and time again
>>
>>567573427
>I'm gonna charge them head on
Yes, the hetairoi made this a viable tactic and knowing when to use them against the elements of the Achaemenid army that weren't particularly disciplined is in fact tactics.
>I'm gonna flank then charge
Yes, this is good tactics, seemingly basic or not. Getting your cavalry in position to do this is not easy. It's rather impressive that Alexander had the skill to consistently get his cavalry into that position!
>I'm always gonna get in trouble doing this but be saved by my bodyguards and generals time and time again
Not only was actually fighting on the frontlines yourself the norm for monarchs in this period but getting saved by his bodyguard famously only happened once at Granicus retard.

Anti-Alexander contrarians are some of the most annoying pseudo-historians of all time, it's entirely based on breaking down a position that has been steadfast for all of history for a reason. No one is unaware that he was lucky at times or that Philip was also brilliant.

The fact of the matter is that Alexander inherited an excellent army that was better equipped and trained than most contemporaries during that era (thanks to Philip, not Alexander). Yes, he knew how to use it and in some instances adapted to the local terrain, but he was also reckless and got lucky more often than not. He is an overrated historical figure and someone like Agrippa who played second fiddle to Augustus is more impressive than Alexander ever was.

>The fact of the matter is that Alexander inherited an excellent army that was better equipped and trained than most contemporaries during that era (thanks to Philip, not Alexander)
The Achaemenid army was also extremely well equipped and was the world superpower at the time. It's a complete myth that they were a pathetic military force that existed only to get run roughshod over by Alexander.
>but he was also reckless and got lucky more often than not
Many great generals are reckless and no, he did not get more lucky than not.
>someone like Agrippa who played second fiddle to Augustus is more impressive
Agrippa was also a fine military leader but even he would say he was no Alexander. No general back then would say they're close to Alexander if they weren't delusional.
>Keep the buzzwords coming, surely they will help your argument. Retard.

Nobody plays total war warhammer anymore, its stale as fuck.
And the few people in this general who still have it installed play a single campaign for 5 hours when a dlc comes out then drop it till the next update.

I will go even further and predict that people will boot lords of end times dlc, play 50 turns as nagash and 20 as boris before realizing that its still the same game they played 2000 hours but with extra gimmicks, then uninstall it and start to post off-topic shit in this general.
