>>568095871Why does he say it so much
>>568095430Moving forward, all LH additions should be sexy females.
>>568096000So you don't mistake him for one of the Assyrian appointed rulers of Babylon. Historically this dude spend 30 years fighting Assyria to liberate Babylon from their puppet rulers. Game starts two years after he has reconquered Babylon. He's one of the more interesting leaders in the game from that standpoint.
>>568096294and going commando
>>568096345Ok that's actually interesting I was half expecting a meme answer
wtf? 40% range is insane

>>568096825It crazy that at it's founding Ur was a coastal port city but by the time of Pharaoh it's already kilometers inland.
wn2b ignoring this game until we get Nagash. We LITERALLY don't car about anything else.
>>568096923What the fuck...

>>568096607China has the best buffs because china numbah 1.
>>568097730kek good job anon
>>568097367>Hattusa.That's where Kurunta's palace is located at!
>>568097730what model, that looks pretty good
>>568098306
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0hZqz-uAMcCan't believe Warhammer doesn't have like a Romeaboo/Greekwank hybrid faction with phalanxes and javelins >m-muh gunpowderBretonnia
>>568097723this one's great as beastmemes
>>568098217
>>568098452Lorenzo Lupo, who would have probably been part of the Dogs of War faction. His whole deal is that he's a total larper from Tilea that pretends he's a warrior from ancient Tylos and has a mercenary company that fights as a phalanx.
>>568098403Problem?
>>568098476Why, you still want old herdstones for the dread % increase
>>568098685>who would have probably been part of the Dogs of War faction.There's still hope you bastard. Bhasiva and golgfag are both so like dogs of war. The real one is coming!
>>568098378the free version of gemini lol
>>568098845damn, it did pretty good then outside of missing the skintone above the boot
>>568098794it can be any settlement, there's like 400
>>568098630lmaodo decapitations like that happen even without mods? cause I have some dismember mod, but idk if it even works, I almost never see decapitations
>>568099107>This anon has never seen a decapitated dwarf slayer decapitate the enemy that decapitated him in turn.
Only Bhashiva left to make alliance with
Bhashiva got steamrolled in my Miao game
>>568099107https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcB2K6nTHXg
>>568099532she doing well
>>568099532Worst daughter.
is order getting spanked all over the place normal? I played a year ago and it was like that, especially when I pick chaos it feels like chaos does well even on the other side of the worldtho i remember empire/dwarfs/cathay being fucked without help pretty much forever
>>568099730it's a dice roll really, though it feels like the factions that are friendly to you are always a bit weaker.
>>568099730Game rolls a power boost to AR for major factions around the map. Empire is highly influenced on that initial roll because it borders factions that also are favored in it.
>>568098818The Marienburg stuff makes it likely, files keep hinting at it
>>568100079>files keep hinting at itThose files are from TW1.
>>568099730That's how it should be. Ordertide made the game shit for years.
WAMENI CAN'T DO EVERYTHING BY MYSELF
FUCK
>>568100301Miao Yang wasn't in WH1 anon.
>>568099574kek 5:25
>>568100571I was thinking about the Marienburg models that were unused since TW1.
hell yeahfucking love smoke mods
I love cathay THOUGH
>>568100898BASED and Radiouspilled
>>568100794I mean, there are also Marienburg tagged models that got introduced with the landship, the fact that this stuff keeps popping up like this throughout the years probably means its on the table, possibly even picked back upThe question really is if its a character pack now or are they actually doing dogs of war because there's also some DoW assets that was in the files at one point
>>568100997>or are they actually doing dogs of warThey better be, does anyone actually want a fucking Marienburg pack?
>>568100820BRAAAAAAAP
>>568101123I think Marienburg is cool as fuck, so I'd buy it eitherway
Realm of chaos sucks, I'm going back to my comfy vortex campaign.
>>568101143

>>568102741VCO works in RoC? Neat.
>>568096923fucking coomers
>>568096923lmaochinese actually like thatthey're so corny man
AirForce Chink is online!
Can zhao n confed bhasiva? Can meow? Do they start in alliance? Is it locked like it is when you play bhasiva?
>>568105089Bhashiva starts as non-aggro + military access with Zhao. You can't declare war against Zhao as Bhashiva (you can declare war against Miao and other Cathay factions though). You can confed Bhashiva as Miao. Haven't tried other combinations.
how many heroes do you guys usually have per stackI kinda prefer units to heroes think 2 heroes per stack would be goodbut ik people usually take more
>>568105491The meta is stacks of heroes.
>>568105578In defense of CA aspiring champions are like heroes but with more models.
>>568105578oh...yeah that makes sensegonna stick to 3 max I just like the traditional units
>>568105491A spellcaster if melee lord.A melee hero if spellcaster lord.Anything more is legendtard schizobabble.
>>568105491Depends on the faction, it usually goes:>One spellcaster if the lord isn't one.>The replenishment hero.>The increase mobility hero.>Any hero that has armywide buffs that just benefit the army setup too much to ignore.>Any potential one of a kind legendary heroes.Everything else is for the streets, aka the campaign map.
>>568095337>>568095374Um...
>>568105491Your army is giving me super aids.Tamurkhan is a cav lord, you run a cav army with him.
>>568105491Your army makes me feel nothing.Tamurkhan is (You)r lord, you run whatever army you like with him
>we fixed attilla lightingyeah so that was cap
>>568106987Built for future hardware, you wouldnt understand
>>568106952Shut up u dumb whore or I'll confed u
>>568107085>future hardwareMegacorp-owned server farms we rent access to through some cloud gaming service?
Fuck yeah, got the tigor, Cathay is united
what a tremendous flop holy shit
>>568106987Who are you quoting?
>>568107587TDD devs said they integrated a reshader in their mod that fixes the dark as coal looking units in Attilla when viewed against the sun.Doesn't look like it to me
Oh this is gonna suck an entire bowl of dicks
Doomstacking is soulless.
>>5681054913 Heroes per stack work well.
>>568107976Your army is horrendous.
>Come and get us wazzocks!>No-no YOU come to us stupid beard-things!>Cam ONNNN ya FAGgorakis!>WALK THROUGH PASS NOW-NOW!
>>568108080He's spiritually a chink and as a result plays the most soulless faction in the game because they're braindead easy, what did you expect.
>>568108296Not my problem u suck at the game. Witht he new dlc this army is finally possible. It's awesome.
>>568107976All the trolls/spawn/horses stand in front of the towers at least
Aside from some legendary heroes already having tier 4-5 as a starter units. What turn are you expected to have higher tier units? I usually get mine around turn 50ish
>>568106952desu I wouldn't run an allll cav army on anybody cept bretonnia but I ought to get some more cav I guessit might be tied to the larp aspect a bit but it just feels wrong, you wouldn't have an army of only riders and chariotsunless you're bretonnia cause its their whole thing they have cav for each situation bretonnia was one of my most fun playthroughs tho they're underrated imo, should give em another try sometime>>568106952aqua sex
>>568108457I might already have to restart it cause one lion is stuck on the wall and can't move anymore.
>>568108531Oh it's you sieging I'm retardedCycle charging them off the wall could kill a lot of shit though
>>568108781I am trying but since now a lion and bird are perma stuck in the wall and are getting shot I'm on the clock..
>>568097045it's not even that bad, the yellow river at one point went into the wrong sea
Oh thank god.. they got unstuck
>>568108531Soulless.
I love winning.
Soulless.
>>568109084>>568110125see nobody in-universe would use an army like that, that's why I wouldn't wanna use it, its effective, but feels wrong
You only have to be faster than the slowest rat
>>568110370Oh they would. If you were to exist in warhammer rn and tell Imrik you've got 19 Star Dragons that wanna follow him, he'd not say a single word, take his 19 dragies and go maul shit.
snake people of cathay when?lizardmen are too gay for me to enjoy, give us Kuresh Basssshiva
i am a big fan of warriors of chaos and putting marks on my guys. If I buy Dechala DLC, will her stuff, like the Chaos Sorcerer of Slaanesh, Strykaar of the Sortsvinaer, Exalted Hero of Slaanesh, etc etc and all that transfer over to Azazel?
Getting real tired of these shitters
>>568110856No, fairly sure her marks are hers only. Which is a shame cause they juice up Jades very nicely.
>>568111050>level 9AI really do be idling
I LOVE YOU ZHAO

>>568112041The units WoC don't get are Slaangors, Devotees, Anointed, Preyton, Curs’d Ettin, Shaman Sorcerer, Fimir Noble and Kurgan Horsemen along with Sayl and obviously all the Helf stuff.
>>568111835Cute...

WW1 level of inching forward to reclaim the homeland. I even managed to revive meow, but man, it's a struggle. I got a huge concentration of force in the north because the chaos dwarves are op as shit, but I finally managed to ambush two of their stacks...
>called EVERchosen>there are several of themWarhammertards, explain this.
>>568113319REEEEEEEE YOU FUCKING CHUD YOU'RE GOING THE WRONG WAY YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO CAPTURE EVERYTHING BETWEEN THE MOUNTAINS OF MOURN AND THE WORLD'S EDGE MOUNTAINS NOT TURN BACK AROUND TO CATHAY FUCK YOUUUUUUUU PLAY IT THE WAY TCAL INTENDED!!!!!!
The stupid whore let herself get confederated..
>>568113515It just means chaos will never take away their blessings from you no matter what you do. It's basically a guaranteed spot at the chaos table no matter how badly you fail.
>>568113792She just prefers scissoring with her sister to being your wife anon, don't feel bad, Miao's technique is peerless.
>>568113515doesn't say ONLYchosen

>8 player multiplayer with simultaneous turns.>Randomly generated campaign maps.If you niggers are not excited for 40k total war I don't know what to say, it's going to be campaign multiplayer keno.
>>568116318I've got one single word that should destroy and all hype for you. And if it doesn't, you're absolute goycattle.>console
>>568116318Im sure it will be a good game.In 2038
>>568116640Pub stomping consoletards is a problem for you?
>>568116318We already have >8 player multiplayer with simultaneous turns.And nobody likes it because it takes for fucking ever
>>56811631840k is stinkyspace marines is stinkyu is stinky
>>568116318nigga TW campaign just doesn't work in MP no one wants to wait for other people's turns
>>568116685No, you retard console means>small maps>small battles>everything will be dumbed downConsole RTS are ALWAYS made with technical limitations in mind. And those limitations don't stem from PC. Also who the fuck gives a fuck about multiplayer except for a tiny minority?
So obviously Golgfag wants his Maneaters as frontline first and foremost, but after that, what is worth investing into in his skill tree? Leadbelchers and cannons? Cavalry? SEMs?
how many console niggersare going to get the game? more than two hands full?
>>568116861>>small mapsnah, consoles have more than 500mb of ram these days>>small battlesnah, consoles have more than 500mb of ram these days>>everything will be dumbed downHave you played modern total war?
>>568116995i think you'd be surprised theres a ton of console niggas that randomly buy games, even RTS and especially since its 40k branded and 40k has never been more popular
>>568116918maneater pistol frontline with leadbelcher backline is the most kino Golgfag army
>>568116725...I like it...
>>568117070holy fuck an unironic CA shill, in this economy
>>56811691819 eshin maneaters
>>568117227I did 4 player coop with my 3 mates 2 times and we never did it again. Every single turn is an entire fucking hour of the other players leaving their desk to do other things.
>>568117232>"Consoles will mean maps will be small!">No, consoles don't really have any technical limitations on this front.>"S-shill!"cool. How about you explain why consoles would mean the maps are smaller.
>>568116725This. No one wants to watch do those gay little AI battles nor participate in them, nor does anyone want to wait for other players to manage their faction in the mid-late game.
>>568117406the game has to run on the Xs, you dumb idiot
>>568117364>Every single turn is an entire fucking hour of the other players leaving their desk to do other things.How is that a problem with the game? Get better friends.
>>568117406>s-shillYes. Arguing with you is pointless because no good faith argument can be made. Now shoo shoo, marketer. Go back to drumming up hype on r/40k or whatever.
>>568098685>Pre-rework Norsca had a technology for conquering Tilea>Rework added techs for fight Norsca and other missing chaos factions>Southern Realms tech was removedIts over pastabros
>>568117554Explain how that is a problem. What are the technical limitations you are talking about.
>>568116318>multiplayer
>>568117558
>explain why it's dark outside sometimes>you won't>guess the game will run fine then
>>568116318>multiplayer Who care ?
>>568117737The Series S is notorious for having hardware that's way underpowered. Larian talked in lengths about how much of a struggle getting split screen in BG3 running on the S was. The game will be mobile tier, screencap this.
>>568118048I hate consoles too but dude, balding gate 3 is one of the worst optimized games I have ever seen in my entire life. It is fucking horrid.
>>568118165we all know total war is notorious for being well optimizedbut BG3 is fine, theres much much worse out there (any UE5)
>>568116640AAAAAAAA CYKA
imagine the Xs trying to render the whole immortal empires campaign map
>>568118270No, no it is not fucking fine. Once you enter the actual city, everything goes to shit. I'm here on my old 1080 playing re2 remake in 4k with 80fps. In that city is was 20fps at best. My mate who I played with on his 3080ti shugging along with 40fps..That is not fine, that is unacceptable. And it doesn't help that the game is so fucking bad I probably won't ever buy another game from them again. It is one of the worst games I ever had to play.
>>568118165They were by far not the only ones to complain about the series S. There's also the fact that TW as a franchise itself is notorious for running like shit. Like, TWW3 has atrocious performance, genuinely horrible, and I think most people just don't realize it, because they're not playing on up to date hardware and have just gotten used to TW always being laggy, so they think nothing's wrong.
>>568116640>consoleWaiting for a DoW but on console since 2004.
>>568118048I just checked, the Series S can run Total Warhammer 3 just fine with it's specs.Why would the size of the battlemaps be reduced if the game is ported to the Series S?
>>568118457if you hate BG3 that much you just aren't a fan of rpgs and thats fine but its not a bad game
>>568118457bg3 is bad, but if you like the genre at all i can recommend devinity original sin. that game can be played in multyplayer without problems
>>568118701>>568118725I believe divinity 2 is one of the best games ever made. I played it at least 10 times.. maybe 15 times. balding gate is an insult.
Could the ai be bugged out with these stacks? Maybe using console command to kill them all will make them do something again?They've been sitting there for 5 turns
>>568118623>the Series S can run Total Warhammer 3 just fine with it's specs.Look at your PC, then look at the dimensions of a series S. You might notice a slight discrepancy in size. Why do you think that is?
>>568118825"there's a mod that fixes that"tm
>>568118904I have a gaming laptop.
>>568118985
>>568098452They should add the tilean oldhammer proto stormcast
>>568118985oof
>>568118780I've played the first island maybe 10 times because all the friends i invited to play it are flakes. But this is a total war thread so to stay on topic I will say that I am mega disappointed the tigers don't participate in the harmony mechanic. I like cathay but this lack of harmony is keeping me from buying
>>568119091>>568119246How am I meant to play Karl Franz on the go without a laptop? I have a steam deck but TWW3 does not run great on it.
>GTX 1080blud has a literal 10 year old GPU and expects to play every new game smoothlyits time to upgrade unc
>>568119615I don't care, post more boner inducing anime girls.>>568119574Well they aren't cathayan so obviously they don't. They are more like ogre mercenaries. >>568119634Nah, kill yourself.
Remember that it isn't cheating to reload when skaven ambush attacks work.
>>568119752All I am saying is that I don't see why the technical specifications of consoles is a reason why Total War will be downgraded in 40k. If the game is downgraded it will be because CA is lazy and not because the consoles cannot handle it.
>>568119956weiss is hot but that image made me giga flat.I never said it would be downgraded. I honest do god don't give a single fuck about 40k, I don't like it at all. Consoles suck ass tho. They achieve their framerates with interlaced rendering. Thing is, that only works for graphics. Total war needs raw cpu power.
>>568119752welp if you can afford to pay for 4chan you can afford to upgrade, 8gb VRAM is especially low for any modern game
>>568120570Didn't I just tell you "no"?VRAM is a reddit meme. I can play everything perfectly fine. I love my girl, she has a custom water loop I built myself. I'll keep her for many more years
What's the one race you've come back to the most?

>>568122423Goddamn, we should have dozens of /twg/ variations of the viltrumites meme, these drawfags need to apply themselves already.
>>568122161kekdI wish I played that game in its hayday, never got into it as a kid
2nd down, onto the 3rd army...
nvm, out of movement.
>>568123014is that alchemist wearing a bikini?
>>568123240yes
>>568121275Who else but HIM?
>>568122832The PC exclusive 64 vs 64 mode was crazy.
>>568123523They are my #2
>>568116318Making TW into Civ is fucking gay and I hope you die.
>>568112626The Everchosen of Chaos looks like THAT!?Imagine if during their final fight at the End Times, Sigmar hits Archaon on the chin with Ghal Maraz and his helmet flies off to reveal a cute girl under all that armor trying to end the world. Then she gets embarrassed and runs back north to hide her shame of being too kawaii to be a walking apocalypse
>>568113798Is that accurate? I never really put much thought into the name since GW loves to just make shit up that sounds cool and leave it at that. But I find it a little hard to believe that no matter what you do the Four wouldn't take away their power or turn your into a Chaos Spawn or something. You telling me that the Everchosen could trip and fall off the walls of Praag and tumble all the way back north to regroup like a moron and Chaos wouldn't be mad no matter how many times he fucks up?
>>568124138häte when that happens
>>568121275Never managed to play liggers. Hate lustria. Find them boring in general. Something doesn't click.>>568123876Love these guys. Peak "good" guy undead faction. Very soulful with their monstrous units.
>>568124138It's ok, the lads would have her back
>>568124439Chaos was much more soulful when it was just those five.

>>568124702Vlad rushing Chaos while getting all the diplo skills/tech to ally with the Empire is kind of kinoHordes of undead chaff blocking for Empire artillery/ranged feels like the kind of desperate shit humanity might do in this settingFor Lizards I end up going Kroq-Gar, getting a new Scar hero at tier 3 building means you can get loads of carnosaurs but with good stats going, which feels like meeting Chaos aggression with way more aggression
This sucked
Sure gonna suck again
The entire enemy army is unbreakable.I wish this would suck more.
>>568125057>>568125252I've made a pretty interesting campaign my most recent go around by vassalizing Stirland and Ungrim. I help prop them up and I get to use at sweet advanced artillery. Having a wall of zombies while pelting your enemies with organ guns and cannons is pretty great ngl.I did notice that Empire cannons are surprisingly better than Dwarf cannons. Which is weird and feels deeply wrong.
Sucked but I came out better than I went in. I love this game.
>>568121275Dark elves. Got a soft spot for Mally and Malus.
>>568127531>that crapstack the AI has>your endgame armyThey really need to fix that.
This sucks
>>568127768fix what?
>>568127595Your army comps?
>>568127859You go, champ. You really showed those tier 2 marauders who is boss.

So I picked up Total Warhammer 3 and have decided on a race and faction (greenskins/Grimgor), are there any tips you'd give a new player? I plan on playing on normal/normal.
>>568129314a new player wouldn't say any of that
>chink takes an endgame army>fights an early game half-stack and a village garrison>REEEEEEEE you are crazy if you don't find this fun!Yup, typical cathay.
>>568126274bruh you lost 13 longmas? Miao ying is gonna have to work overtime to make up for that
>>568129537come here u lil cunt..
>>568129373Really? I've only played what little of the prologue I can get through before it crashes. That said I've done maybe a bit of over preperation for the game.
>>568129314Don't expect to use greenskin as a pile of violence and make it work; they're quite the nuanced army.
>>568128885Fair, swapping out 2 ranged for some monster mash or more raptors would be peak though
>>568129613sorry, i may be a bit wary because of all the shitposters in this thread. play on very hard battle difficulty, unless you just want to auto resolve every battle
>>568121275Wood elvesI'm an mp chud however
Miao doesn't make Longmas anymore...
>>568129314In this game you're rewarded for being aggressive (any faction) as battles give money and settlement income buildings are more efficient the lower tier they areBesides that you just learn how to deal with different threats; ranged tends to do great against anything big like cavalry and trolls as long as something is blocking for them obviouslyDon't send cav into the front of melee infantry, it's not cost effective, ideally there are some ranged or tied up flanks to hit instead
>>568129960
>>568121275EMPIREEEEEEEE
>EMPI REEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Do I accept nurgles blessing?
>>568129314Expect to use greenskin as a pile of violence and make it work; they're quite the retard army.
>>568130854You never make a pact with the Dark Gods. Ever. Silly nonny.
>>568129314also, never ask /twg/ for tips. they are wrong 100% of the time
Is it just me or are free company militia actually really fucking good?
>>568131328yes. pretty good for early game
>>568131328Always have been.
How come everytime I play Albion I can only think these guys are lame, why did people even want them as dlc?
>>568130314Based, have a screenshot from a game i played just a while ago
on god you niggas play some boring races
what are the br*tish so dumb?
>>568131328They actually outdamage a lot of ranged units due to just having 120 modelsAnd then if they get into melee they're pretty cheap and still got clanrat stats so it's not the worst thing in the world
Gonna start another RoC tonight. Continuing my cutscene hunt.Skarbrand, Greasus, Miao, Zhao, Yuan Tamurkhan, Kugath, Nkari, or a WoC not Vilitch?
Is there any negative to this other than having the f*ench on your soil?
>>568133203No, it's a great landmark.
>>568121275>What's the one race you've come back to the most?None of them. I make sure to play a different race each campaign. If I complete a campaign as say the High Elves then I won't play as High Elves again for probably something like 6 months, because I'll have to play a faction from each of the other races first.
>>568121275basically any of the order factions except dorfs.

>>568134395https://youtu.be/0yD6N2fOTjI?t=120My thoughts exactly.
I have given up on getting my favorite Empire unit in the game, the Knights Encarmine.:(
you now remember THAT lizardman comic
>>568135706That's not a unit just a paint scheme for normal Empire knights.
>>568135706Why would you want a bunch of richfags larping as noble knights?
>>568135852the starfox one? thanks, nigger
>Army runs right up to 0.00001mm of my ambush zoneHuh, the CA bootlickers assured me that ambush stance is le fine
>>568135852This this sucks one? cheers, faggot.
>>568135993Isn't that most noble knights?
>>568135898>>568135993They do have a unique statline and are the only knights in the whole setting who dual wield (not counting individual characters).
>>568135995>>568136082yknow the one
>>5681362832 > 4 > 1 > 3
>>568136390yeah I can't say the elf isn't the hottestsmth about those face markings they have.. that look like whiskersso cute :3
>>568135852The Skink ambassador ?
Forgot the chariots have fire arrows and almost torched my own elite unit.
>>568096923Nice!
>>568136283>top'kek! top'kek!
>>568135452should not have read thatr/asianmasculinity users have some issues
>>568136232>unique stat lineDo they actually have a stat line outside of that one WD article on knightly orders (albeit, great article) that isn't tournie legal?
>>568138231Time to boot up another cathay campaign and invade the empire of man because sigmar is WEAK. Dwarves stole gunpowder from the true innovators of warhammer. Who needs a weak little elector count when you could be protected by the mighty dragon? Bastion never fall in all history. Weak Kislev fall all the time. All time.
>>568140972Least they ain't brown
What the FUCK did they do to Zhao's AI? He got Lizardmen'd
>>568141710>expecting allies to EVER survive
Does Aislinn have any actual enemies on his starter area? Feel like I see this retard on every single one of my campaign just sailing around and being a parasite

>9070xt, bought>9800x3d installed>14000mb/s pcie5 ssd plugged in>debt, engagedYeah, I'm ready for 40k
I am still pissed off that they removed Pirate Weapons from the Kiselv tech tree.It used to give AP missile strength and +10% range to all units.
Why does the AI do this?
>>568143391>rawr i liek monstersMe too, AI. Me too.
>>568141710What does bhasiva do now?
>>568116861Dude you know GTA fucking 6 is coming this gen right?Fucking Elden Ring was on last gen even.The only difference console will have até the controls. This is an RTS not a war simulator where everything is simulated by real physics in the tiniest detail, hell not even YOUR PC would run it then.
>>568143019>he bought>pop ze AI booble
>>568143545GTA6 is confirmed to be 30FPS on consoles lmao. You also cannot compared Rockstar to any other company on Earth, least of all CA. Their programmers are literal magicians, with unlimited funds at their disposal.
>>568143763>30fpsAnd that would still be amazing.It's an RTS dude, it's not rocket science, get a grip.
>>568143534The 'Zhao's favour' mechanic doesn't even change. It's so fucking stupid.
Another problem is a game 'running' doesn't mean it is running as it should. There's zero optimization in modern games, so a good machine will run the latest games like shit for no real reason other than "yeah, we expected you to have a 5060 by now".
>>568143919How do you not understand my point? The magicians at Rockstar can't even manage to make their game run at 60FPS. Meanwhile, the only well optimized CA ever made was Alien Isolation, a game which, by their own admission, was for the most part made by industry veterans recently let go from other studios, which left shortly after the game was done.
>they really think Total War is impossible to run on a console nowadaysDo you even play these games? Lmao https://youtu.be/5fKbOjlKs0o?si=-NibLzis0Ma4TjFiThis game runs on fucking potatoes
>>568144187The point wasn't optimization, it was casualization. It might even run like shit, but it won't be different from the total war we know, hell we've seen the campaign maps and battle maps already.
>>568144187You don't optimize a game to run 60fps. You set your performance goals at the start of development and if GTA6 is supposed run 30fps on the target hardware that was always their intent. 60fps is such situations is left all to your hardware not the dev and magic optimization.
>>568144578It will be both. Badly optimized and made for drooling retards, with everything overly simplified so Tyrone can play it with his dogshit controller.
>>568144753You sound like a drooling retard to me, trying to predict something we literally already know how it'll work, because we've been fucking shown it. Kys
>retard forgot that all TW have a pause function to easily issue commands even on a controller.TW works on steam deck too btw.
>real strategy games on console have never been tried beforeunderage or bait, call it
>>568145595Probably bait, AoMR and AoE are on console just fine.I also remember playing red alert on console as well.
>>568146186BFME 2 as well
>>568145595It's probably because of Supcom2, but the game was made to be for casuals from the beginning, since SupcomFA didn't make the numbers.It's the same thing that happened with DoW3, but that game is only on PC.
>>568145595There hasn't been a single RTS ever released on consoles. So yes, it has never been tried.
>defense ally with Wurrzag>he's raping 3 factions all on his own>suddenly stops expanding>gets destroyedlove CA lobotomizing the friendly AI
>>568146314That takes me back. Everything was insanely broken.
>>568146314The work never ends here
>>568143019>AMD GPUyou got scammed sonI'm sorry...
>>568148329>nvidiacucki'm so sorry
>>568148329The 9070XT is amazing tho
>>568149348its 15% ish worse in most games compared to the RTX equivalent, and u get shitty AMD drivers on top of that but it'll still run anything I suppose
>>568149691though I keep forgetting its quite cheaper rn than the 5070 so ig it aint so bad
>>568149691>>568150045Its significantly cheaper than the 5070ti yeahFor 15% less performance (debatable after drivers improved its performance while nvidia fucked up so bad the 5070ti lost performance over time) it is a equivalent
Does it still hold up? I remember playing the original way back but never touched the expansion. I was thinking about doing the Empire campaign again.
>>568135852Fucking nut to this comic once a month
>>568136485She's a half dwarf, half elf anon. The Saurus should be killing her, not fucking her. She's an abomination to the great plan.
>>568136283Didn't the artist basically get blackmailed into doing this one and it's the reason he stopped doing porn all together?
>>568152374how tf is dwarf-elf interbreeding related to the great plan again?
>>568151614Depends on your tolerance for jank
>>568151614"I shall acquiesce to your request."
I won't care about 40k total war or dawn of war 4 until we see some eldar / dark eldar or tau content.
>>568152489Miscegenation is banned for Warmbloods. Only Lizardmen are allowed to crossbreed since they're already products of interbreeding dinosaurs together.
>>568152914isn't that a bit hypocriticalwhy do they even care who warmbloods fuck
Lizardmen do not have genitals, they are genderless and born of magic water. You are all sick fucks.
>>568152998You can't have sex with elves, human. The gods forbid it for you!
>>568153339maybe ikit was right about lizard shits, I support elf-dwarf hybrid wives for everyone
>>568153297Lizardmen still have an anus. They're made for sodomy
>>568153339She's waiting for her assistant to hand her the dental tools so she can clean the lizard's teeth?
Lizards are naturally lewd beings...
do I play Elspeth or Miao Ying next?
>>568156065elspethmuch more fun
Is it possible to bait Ghorth the cruel out of Zharr Naggrund, or is he scripted to just sit there with his bullshit tier 5 army?
>>568156294he has the sentinel diplomacy tag, which means all he does is defend his home region and will never ever leave
>>568156568Alright, thanks. I wanted to snag the relic in there, but I don't think it's possible until you can come back and abuse heals with high tier gear
>>568156826yeah, those armies are meant to be insanely hard to kill so Grimgor can't bork chorf campaigns by destroying the Servants of the Conclave on turn 20
I have coomer fatigue and 40k isn't even out yet
>>568154905>>568156179sell me on the corruption mods
>>56815756540k is less coomer than fantasy.
This campaign just becomes a really not fun slog very early on. Chaos shits all become the friendship-tide (only when the player is order, otherwise they'll all declare war on you as Sayl, etc...) with Kholek peacing out with Tamurkhan nearly immediately and everyone buddying up. Meow gets a bus ran on her by turn 10 like usual, and Zhao now dies on turn 5 for every campaign I tried so far, so there's absolutely nothing holding back the endless waves of chiggers.
>>568160678It's true, there is practically ZERO 40k coomer art. Coomers will have no pictures to ritual post.
Fun campaigns > glup shittosI don't want "Tigermen", I want Ind. I don't want another boring Cathay campaign except this time you're not one of the Dragon siblings, I want DoW where I'm everybody's mercenary.
Tamurkhan was the worst character they added to this game, not only is he unfun to play as but playing as a character that starts near him is a fucking nightmare when you have to deal with his regenerating 15k+hp fat ass that doesn't give a fuck about spearmen and he just runs through your shitInsane power creep.
>playing the elder scrolls mod>some unit and building descriptions read like they've been run through google translate>oblivion crisis happens>spawns stacks of unbreakable elite heavy infantry everywhereit's kinda jank bros
>>568162772that is literally just the morrowind daedric armourignore the trebs
>>568160717I don't know why liberate isn't just a default action everyone can do for in lore allies
>>568152374damn I wish I had a big lizard cockwhat does a lizard penis look like anyways
>does job>gets punishedwhy is Yuan Bo such a gaylord?
>>568160815the tau being added to 40k total war will ruin all discussion forever.
Um so basically the Tau are heckin' wholesome and the good guys of the setting and they can even beat Chaos since they have no presence in the warp. Also their technology is millennia ahead of Imperials. Why no I haven't painted my army, why would I even touch that shitty tabletop game, it's for losers.
>>568164864you're right that tableslop is for losers, secondaries are honestly embarrassing they genuinely think paying hundreds of dollars for shitty unpainted toys is normal lmao
>>568142589Minor Vampirates, don't know if they are here when you don't play him.
Is it time to replay fire warrior?
>>568165916IT'S QUIET
Protect her at all cost!
>>568160678You're not ready for the greater good.
Why yes, we Karkhedonoi do consider ourselves the natural protectors of Hellas, how could you tell?
>>568169113kinda based desudid you put allied governments in there or what
>>568169417Yeah, until you get the Barcid reform it's pretty much mandatory to put Allied Govs everywhere outside of Africa (and honestly even IN Africa from Cyrenaica going eastwards). Then again, it's only an issue if you're like me and decide to destroy factions based on whether or not they keep annoying you with naval blockades.
>>568165343people who buy warhammer figurines are subhuman
>>568164690Eldar will be in from day 1 and they are one of the pillars of the coomer triad>Eldar>Tau>Sororitas
>>568170171If you don't support GW, then you aren't allowed to complain about the direction of the franchise.
>>568170034damn. do you get a military colonization building after the reforms?
>>568170235OK i wasn't going to
>>568170384Good.
>>568170271Yeah, Barcid reforms give you access to local recruitment (without needing Hellenic-style colonies) along with the foreign recruitment building (which is otherwise restricted to the highest level of normal government buildings, which are themselves restricted to four particular cities that still need to build up their own colony buildings to the highest tier).
>>568170940you don't get factional recruitment outside of your core cities until the barcid reforms? sounds miserable, albeit accuraterome is kinda similar, you can only build colonies in italy before the polybian reforms, and you can't even get native recruitment without an allied gov
>>568169113Which mod?
>>568171342Europa Barbarorum 2
In my 750 hours of play, and in all of the videos and livestreams I have ever watched of this game, I have never, EVER, seen Ghorst and Greasus be buddies, let alone Ghorst also becoming buddies with Cathay in general.The end result of this was an Ogre/Tiger/Chinese alliance against Dechala and Ku'Gath.
>>568169113you have inspired me, EBfriend
Jesus fucking christ
>>568171203It's definitely one of the more miserable reforms since, besides the "major battles" requirement (since the AI is dogass at not splitting up its forces into a million one-man armies and the battle counter doesn't take reinforcements into account), you also need to set up a Barcid character as your FL and then make him War Leader.>>568174864Have fun, Hellas is my favorite start bar none because of the Thunderdome aspect.
>>568175028WRE is no joke.
>>568175134the EB2 scripts are honestly such a pain in the ass. it's like they're intentionally trying to make it unfun, instead of just historically accurate
oh my god this trait
>>568175559>made peace with epirus turn 1>they declare war on me next turn and immediately take sparta...maybe I'll play somebody else
>>568175714That's what you get for playing those ancient shitty games.
>>568175413Some of the scripts can definitely be fun, like how the Apeirotai have two government paths based on whether or not you can kill Macedon and take Sicily before Pyrrhus and his sons die, or how the Aedui's highest government building decreases the FL's authority by 1 per building so the player has to choose between more recruitment centers vs having low-loyalty characters become a much higher risk... but for the most part yeah, a lot of the scripts (mostly dealing with reforms or trait triggers) can be pretty tedious.>>568175714The Mexican standoff is part of the fun.

>>568162217Yeah you just have to bumrush him before he levels up if you start near him, that or bring enough ap shooting units to blow through all his hp in a couple volleys
>>568181858>Rats suck to fight against if you don't rush them>Tamurshit sucks to fight against if you don't rush him>Empire sucks to fight against if you don't rush him>Lizards aren't fun to fight against if you don't rush them>Dark Elves aren't fun to fight against if you don't rush them>Chorfs aren't fun to fight against if you don't rush them>High Elves aren't fun to fight against if you don't rush themWho am I missing?
Imagine having to fight Dechala as Cathay or Gelt haha
>>568182150honestly the only enemies i fear to fight at all are dorfs and chorfs. dark elves can be annoying if they spam shades but I think that's kind of lord specific. also early game brettonia is annoying as fuck when the ai spams hammer and anvil spamming all of their cavalry units. oh and you cant forget khorne, their armored guys are annoying as heck when it comes to early game and auto resolves.
>>5681822502 stacks of jade warriors and a high lvl LL can do it.
>>568182150High elves, Empire and Rats never suck to fight. The first 2 have god awful units and the rets are only annoying cause ambush and tunneling.
I am running TWWH3 on gtx 1060 6gb and i5-3570 and you cannot stop me. It's actually running fine on medium-high settings, temperature within normal range, battles take 2 minutes to load though. A small price to pay for an entertaining game.
>>568183057Empire sucks because after Elspeth was added every late game empire stack is cavalry and landship spam. Rat artillery spam is really annoying for most factions.
>>568183173Unless you let them do the attack so they start chasing you down, Artillery is never an issue. Wall your lord in a circle for 5mins.
>>568183057Stuff like HE and Empire are bad because AI can't handle static ranged infantry at all, fighting Wood Elves who can shoot on the move are suddenly way scarier because sending one flier or even dog unit and pingponging it between archers doesn't literally disable half of the enemy army (provided they're late game enough to be a bunch of deepwood/waywatchers and not glade guard)
>>568183086I can't even run it on a 1650 because my laptop is poorly designed
>>568183575Laptop chips are not the real things.

>>568184323okay
TW40K is one of the few games I've been genuinely excited for in the past few years.
40keks are delusional. SAD
>>568186465Why? It's gonna be mid at best

>>568186465I'm excited for it like 2 years after It's early access on release as far as I'm concerned
>>568144343my 3080ti fucking struggled on the campaign map so i dont buy your bullshit

>>568194657I remember those, if it was me you played with. It was a mix of lack of interest, tryharding, a little autism, and every single person probably having an unstable connection because the game uses some fucked up lockstep protocol.
>>568195157i guess you would have to set up a simple set of rules before doing this. like all battles against the ai have to be autoresolved, maybe no doomstacking, no niggers.
wait his name is golgfag not golgfang
>>568193719It's going to suck me dry anon, it's going to drain me of every drop of hour I have.

>>568196582Unlike faggots who took over warhammer when it went mainstream and decided it was all """satire""" both version of warhammer were best when you unironically self inserted as mere man in a hellish world with nothing but your comrades to help you.
>>568196582you are gay
>>568196582Cute Miao
>>568196474wdym?
>>568192464Done,
>>568197258You can't see the anti russian bias in that video?
>>568197705>anti russian biasthat's been going on for about a 100 years
>>568197705No one can except you apparently.
>>568196676>N-no! I don't want to be a spearman! I'm sick of being weak! Let me self insert into an epic augmented gigachad instead!>TEUTOGEN GUARD!??! NOW THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!!
the "inert jewel" is part of vco, probably. i got it for killing laurelorn as khazrak. somebody killed the ice court and it turned into this. i even went to ultuan and killed tyrion and alalarielle and noothing happened. no idea what the fuck the thought process behind this shit is.
>>568196676>and decided it was all """satire"""40K started as satire, then it became ultra serious grimderp, then slightly less grimdirp, and now it's marvel shit.
>>568198757>40K started as satireNo it started as pulp sci fi, it later had some jokes in it but the setting itself was not satirising something.
Maybe they will cancel the console version and focus on PC.
>>568198757It was always serious grimdark with at best a handful easter eggs here and there, including Rogue TraderSetting is even more grimdark now
>>568199226>Setting is even more grimdark nowBullshit. It's never been darker than 3rd. Sure the plot has Chaos in a stronger because the whole warp gash running through the galaxy, but tonally it's far more hopefully and less grimdark than back in the day.
>>568199481Yeah I would say peak warhammer was 1998 to like, 2012 or so.
>>568199625>peak [thing] was 1998 to like, 2012 or soMany such cases.
Fuck off heatSummer you are NOT welcome
>>568198757Kinda, but not the kind where you step back and realize it's all deep political commentary. When I read long essays about how the imperium is the source of all its own problems and needs to be destroyed I cringe a little. That's just people hating on fascism so hard they ignore the giant soul eating daemons in the room.
Protip: build 4 of these in a province to farm the rebels
>>568199481there is nothing hopeful about current 40kGirlyman can only cope and seethe as everything falls apart, with Imperium losing everything

>>568201547marinos eunt domus
>>568201547SM in Rogue Trader are identical to their current version
>>568201547British satire doesn't go full parody like American. You're meant to laugh about how cartoonish the imperium is and support them anyway.
>>568201768>and support them anyway.
>>568201816The british man years for the boot of the monarchy, even today. So yes.
>>568201547>commentary on police brutalitylol
>>568200350Speak for yourself volksgenosse, I am in the process of installing it.
>>568201768>British satire doesn't go full parody like American.You're literally seeing it right in front of your eyes.Warhammer 40k only started to be "serious" once GW realized they needed to lean harder into rule of cool to sell miniatures.
why didn't Hannibal just march on Rome?was he STUPID perhaps?
>>568202401he was dogshit at sieges.
>>568098452>Can't believe Warhammer doesn't have like a Romeaboo/Greekwank hybrid faction with phalanxes and javelinsWhat do you mean? They do
>>568202401>fat gay nobles in home demand he marches back or face reprecussiondon't march back and they will somehow brand you a traitor, murder all of your relatives even if you subjugate the enemy
>>568202492Aztecs are cool as fuck but I can't Romewank to them
Aeldari news, when CA?
>>568202680I look like this
>>568202570Why not? Lizardmen are basically just a rome/greek hybrid faction with an aztec coat of paint. While they have certain aztec aesthetic features, they function far more like greekoids
>>568202846Well that's it, the aesthetics are a big part of itAlso no phalanx even though Dwarfs get their shieldwall
>>568202846Outside of pseudo-Velites they're not anything like the Romans and they don't have a phalanx ability so they're definitely not Gre*ks.
>>568202757ntr me
>>568202757made for humans
I can't decide which variety of elves I like most.
>>568203126>they don't have a phalanx abilityUnits in warhammer don't really have formation abilities, there's only lance and a shieldwall added super late in development as a tech tree optionLizardmen, however, are one of only two factions who get elite spear & shield infantry. They have light javelin equipped troops supported by medium sword/spear infantry supported by heavy spear infantry. They supplement this with cavalry, either skirmish or medium, and dinosaurs (elephants).
>>568203929undead elves (aom 1)
>>568201547damn that guy is as tall as a marine
>>568204362no the marine is just really far away
>>568204157>They have light javelin equipped troops supported by medium sword/spear infantry supported by heavy spear infantry. They supplement this with cavalry, either skirmish or medium, and dinosaurs (elephants)This could easily just be Norsca too, anon, they even have mammoths. No one is going to claim that Norsca is where you should go if you want your Romeaboo fix.

>>568205307Agreed.
>>568202680Soon™
>>568202757>>568205545Huh...
>>568205032oh yeah that makes sense
touched by slanesh huh
>>568206071>This slaaneshi cultist pussy got me acting un-wise
>>568201547lol this is so 80s action movie coded, some Highlander/The Warriors type shit
>>568201767SM in RT are more like a police force than special forces.
>>568206195I kinda wish CA had the balls to make ACTUALLY sexy and virile looking slaneshi unitsnot yknow, dried up british hags or demonettesbut people say they're actually supposed to be horrifying or somehting, altho I'd prefer something that could actually tempt you even irlalso is this area of the map new? I don't remember it when I last played a year ago..... could be mistaken tho
>>568206291It's 80s everything coded. That was just the style back then.
>>568206291You know, I heard recently that there's a Highlander remake on the works, I wonder how it'll go.I rewatched it recently and I was very sorry to find out that it doesn't really hold up. The past Scotland part does, the modern city part was garbage and the romance is incredibly rushed and nonsensical.
>>568206508It's from the Tides of Torment DLC update
>>568206508>>568206596the area itself isn't new. they just dropped the snek in there
>>568206591I'm really, really sick of remakes
>>568206596>>568206764oh yeahthis was some miao campaign i did ages ago
>>568206814Everyone is, but the inexorable hand of capitalism demands safe product.
>>568206921We get what we fucking deserve
>>568206591it was like that back then, too. if you want a decent highlander remake then watch "the one" with jet lee
>>568206972something something be the change you want to see
>>568206972we deserve genki christmas cake tomboy girlfriends
>>568206972They are making another conan too. The 80s truly has returned.
>>568207150nice try, Tzeentch
>>568207150I haven't touched remakes in years they still get soiboys excited, there's no stopping it

>>568205136Do they though? Their spearmen don't have shields, and as far as I know they have no sword infantry
>>568207986it probably plays rly comfortable with a steam controller
>>568206508They're supposed to be androgynous too.The masque, the exalted hero, and azazel are androgynous and fairly sexual, but they have uggo faces, which all Slaan units should have
>>568207986>pause every two secondsMust be a riveting experience. Might as well play turn based games at that point.
>>568208165i've seen 10x better femboys on twitter than anything thats supposed to turn u gay from the slaneeshi shit in warhammer baka
waitmy herald became a great uncleaned onebut I don't rly get it do I lose something on tamurkhan with this? cause it said something like him stealing his thunder now
>>568208165>azazel are androgynous and fairly sexualfaggot
>>568208398oh wait i dont think so it only replaces the herald
>>568108975>the yellow river at one point went into the wrong seathere is no wrong seaif the yellow river decides it wants to empty into a different sea, you’d better get the fuck out of its way
>aspiring champions have shittier stats than chosen wtfthey're not actually worse right? no way
LL for this fe-Rakarth. It's Rakarth.
>>568208258Yeah but they're cultivating feminity, not androgyny. Slaan is supposed to be androgynous, NOT overly feminine.>>568208410Have you looked at Azazel's body and not just his stupid head? He's androgynous and sexualized
>>568208825>B*ltonsGross
>>568208398>stomaching a nurgle campaign until turn 83I kneel.
Li Dao = Lu BuYin Yin = Diao ChanMonkey King = Cao Cao
>>568209056when I start a campaign past 5 turns I can't put it down until like 100-150 when I get the borders I want
>>568209217Look at that clunky UI.Hopefully console ports will fix it
>>568208682They get a crapton of buffs from their tech tree that turn them into terminators, you can also stack them on top of your chosen/cw/marauders so they'll add some mass and their large splash attacks will knock enemy infantry around quite well.
>>568208936Why yes, I am gross, thanks for noticing
>>568209342the only thing I want from warhammer UI is an overlay like Rome 2 where it shows the map in nice flat 2D warhammer map looks like its made out of puddy ofc cause its the 3d map with some color slapped on top, but there's no mod for that and idk if there'll ever be
>>568209519warhammer 1 had that tho
>>568209853uncharted lands should say silly shit like here be dragons
>>568209935yeah i love stylized maps, sovl

LL for this feel?
>>568212290Sisters of Twilight.
>>568211296The internet and humanity as a whole has not yet unlocked the potential of dwarfs just being hotDwarfs being bearded gruff creatures doesn't mean the women have to in the same way it doesn't for human men and womenThere's literally no rule stopping a fantasy setting just making them hot short girls
>>568212290Why are they trying to get out.
Well, do you approve of the Character Pack DLC concept?
>>568212656Yeah, if it was used for characters people want but don't have a place in full DLCs instead of shitty furry OCs.
>>568212404hmmmmthey're just TOO stockywith the way that male dwarfs in warhammer are short n wide I don't see the girl ones being too cutewhen its a dwarf elf its the best of both worlds, they're a lil bit taller than the normal dwarf so they're short and not just midgets, they're a lil bit slimmer so they're just thicc short girls instead of stocky fridge bitches
>>568212656Bhasiva is a genuinely good lord and the pack actually means they can't do the usual thing where one lord gets shafted in terms of either units or mechanics.
>>568207986I can see it having auto slow mo for issuing orders in console
>>568212827>they're just TOO stockyYeah the "men"Why would the "women" have to be
>>568213135cause no humanoid race has that much sexual dimorphism there's 0 reason to assume the women would be significantly less stocky than the menif anything they'd be even shorter than the men rightso they'd look more like midgets instead of shortstacks shit if the fuckin old art is anything to go by...
>>568213296>cause no humanoid race has that much sexual dimorphismWho made that rule?
>>568212656Fine as a concept needed a better first character, should have been yin yin
>>568213508idk just a safe assumptionhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-PmAQ9Opu4
>>568202680space elves are pretty cute though
>>568213508>male is a brutish monster>female is a hot chickI hate this trope
>>568213979After rereading the books recently I'm just realizing how much of an absolute joke Jackson made Gimli, he's just a clumsy retard in every scene, even his big defence of the tomb in Moria has him accidentally dodging the troll like fucking JarJar Binks while Legolas actually does thingsWAIT AND THEN AN ELF OUTDRINKS HIMWHAT IS THIS BASTARD WAZZOCK MOVIE
>>568214378this is literally the case in real life
>>568214378Yeah it sucks
>>568214610I look like the troll female
>>568214610Me? Orc Male.
>>568214378sexual dimorphism makes fantasy races more interesting though
>>568215237they're ears are shorter afterall. the more you know
>>568214378you're a woman
>>568214425He had a pretty good showing at helms deep and pelennor fields.
>>568218038Every time i see cathay siege I just remember how wasted the great bastion is. I hope the ET update makes it more of an actual bastion with foes on other side.

>>568218636Alpha cows. Alpha fucks.
>>568218636you still eat the cows eventually
>>568218636maybe they feed non-cultists to the cowsprisoners of war, law-abiders, and the likemakes a bit less sense if you're building it in the wasteland though
succd
>>568219216anon, this is a blue board
>>568212656Yes, I just don't like chinese shit. There are many cool characters missing from the old world still.
>>568207464It's crazy how the literal babby's first campaign is the best and most satisfying one and all these years and LLs later it still hasn't been topped I'm not sure if that reflects well or poorly on CA's abilities
Who's your favorite LL? :)
>>568219942my 2 favorites
>>568219942The Favoured Daughter obviously.
>>568219942Bhasiva is number one for finally giving me a less icky cathay lord to play. The next archaon rework might move him up.
>>568220117>The next archaon rework might move him updid they speak about this already?
>>568219942Tempestus Naestra!Serene Arahan!
>>568220187I don't think so.
Poor monogods.. Not a single mechanic designed with fun in mind.. Only lore flavour..
>>568220276isn't it the other way around
>>568220502of course notjust look at how serene she is
google AI has a lot of ideas for the ET rework. Was it discussed?
>>568219942Publius Cornelius Scipio Africanus
>>568219293I dunno what you could possibly mean by that...
>>568219216The audio cutting out is actual kino though
I think ToT was worse than OoD even though ToT included my pet race
>>568220625So is AI going to actually start paying off or what
>>568221670That would depend on whether or not it just copied gbogs clicbait influencer shilling and presented it as fact.
>>568221850I don't mean for TW I mean in generalThey made like a thousand data centers
>>568220625Did the AI access Creative Assembly's headquarters? How does it know?
>>568220625Archaon already has the eye. It's literally his helmet. Why would he need to get another.
>>568222121Of course Actually Indians has access to CA's headquarters, it's in Bongistan after all.
>>568222021Yeah, it can actually make really convincing videos and edit movies on the fly now without paying for reshoots.
>"Upper Egypt">It is further down on the map
Fuck that was hard. My lord was level 15 and had to fight a level 20 and a level 40 in quick succession
>>568222163Too many charlemagnes to change lord equipment based on their actual equipped items. Technically Archaon isn't wearing the eye until you get it, they judt never made an eyeless model for Archaon just like they never made a hammerless Karl for before you get Ghal Maraz.
>>568222345South is not downThe north pole is not the top of the world and antarctica is not the bottom.
>>568222358She has a really hard start between greasus and grimgor.
>>568222386If a budget title like Pharaoh could do armor, weapon and hat changes so can TWW3.
>>568222421sybau
>>568220625I asked google AI for a response to your post and it showed me this
>>568222554Kill yourself nigger
>>568221125maybe i should jerkoff before posting
>https://www.artstation.com/santalahtiLL for this feel?
>>568222576What the hell, is it watching me?
>>568222545I said. Too. Many. Charlemagnes. Now drop it dumb player you don't know how hard it'd be to add that stuff in and we're too busy giving Archaon his third rework.
>>568222576Google must be filled with self hate if it dissed itself this hard.
>>568222695Kinda crazy how his art actually gets worse over timeUhhh... faction that got worse after reworks... greenskins. Specifically Grimgor
>>568222920it isn't dissing itself, but the user
>>568223026I will need to ask AI for my opinion on this.
did they ever nerf spirit leech or is it still OP? I guess you can't really balance this, its the ultimate counter to 1 model units which are the most OP shit in the game
>>568223221Spirit Leech was never OP. It isn't currently. Same for Flock of Doom.If you're struggling with it just kill the wizard.
>>568222742clown girls are cuter.
>>568223159tell me what it says
>>568223460agreed
>>568222421Southkek cope
>>568222345>Egyptlol
>>568212656>One lord and 3 units>Still takes 6 months to developYawn
>>568223460I want that assclown's clownass
>>568223221It's only a counter for 3-4k hp casters and foot heros, anything bigger and/or with regen doesn't really careAlso doombolt and most of the gaze spells deal similar amounts of SE damage
>>568222920AI will diss anyone you tell it to diss
>>568202680I hope you realize that eldar will be the absolute last and least marketed race since CA will have the hardest time making them work
I'm literally jerking off in between turns, this is a level of degeneracy new to me
>>568225942tell to not use the gay ass corpo name next time
Halberd stormvermin are... actually pretty good fighters?
legend status?
>>568226295Skaven infantry... good? That can't be, my favorite e-celeb and /r/totalwar told me they're bad.
>>568226295I love Queek.I LOVE QUEEK.I WANT TO PLAY MY FUCKING SKAVEN AS THE RAVENOUS HORDE THEY ARE.
>>568226295As it turns out, yes.Better front line than the empire.
>>568226295always have been. there shoud be a vid of them killing skarbrand 1vs1 on youtube, but i can't find it.
>>568220625Are you fucking braindead?Every single person who posts "here is what some AI told me" and expects to be taken seriously should be bullied off the internet.
I would never be deceived by the Changer's schemes.
>>568226692We all know Skarbrand solos 20 stormvermin..Can u imagine the pain if the AI was able to play like us? Skarbrand would be unkillable.
Archaon is supposed to be the Herald of the End Times.So why is it that I fear Tamurkhan a hell of a lot more?
>>568227697they can't animegirlify the maggot host
>>568227796Wrong
>>568225942>Guardsman boot on Ork Floyd's neckFunnier than it should be
>>568227796Already done.
>>568228334did you google animegirl worms?
>>568226295They are expensive as hell for skaven infantry. Thats why Queek is /ourguy/ because he gets half upkeep
>>568228467also the frenzy
>>568228334I look like this
>>568228467I prefer Craventail for the Veterancy buffs
>>568226295Stormvermin goodCenserbearers bad (and stinky)
But do you guys use the sword and shield stormvermin or only the halberd ones, even against infantry because of the AP?
>>568226681>extremely cheap clanrats>with frenzy after getting K8P>free to dip into every other unit typeGreatest-BEST Skaven faction
>>568229573I have never bothered to use sword and shield stormvermin outside of a garrison.Better my entire line be suicide for large units while being decent against infantry than being a little better against unarmored infantry and trash against large units.
>>568230524Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
>>568229573I run clanrats so usually halberdsIf I wanted to splash on a stormvermin frontline however I go shieldMight do test-fighting
>>568230450
>>568229573Even if you're using stormvermin you'd want some jezzails/catapults to shut down enemy shootin, add the clanrat summons on top of that and the shields aren't really neededThen you can also mix in some doomflayers/ogres for anti infantry and mass
>>568229573Looking at their stats during testing, they don't get that big melee defence buff you'd expect being only 2 MD more, so you're basically paying a little less and getting that 35% missile reductionWhich to be fair against dwarfs and elf-things could do workBut against these 100 armour longbeards, the halberds are doing slightly better
>>568226295I remember ratfags trying to justify their insane power creep in WH2 by saying its ok because skavwn infantry is bad, even though they have one of the better sword & board Frontline + halberds.
>>568231564Berserk-things again not too different just shield slightly ahead instead
>>568232048send them against some hybrid kislev units or lothern seaguard
>>568231564>>568232048So basically yeah, always best to bring halberds no matter the situation and just tell your shitty rat bastards to learn how to take it if they get shot.
>>568232048Very dire for shield rat versatility
>>568232432Certainly not silver shieldsShield rats dumpster-disbanded!
>>568232973I'm surprised halberdvermin are so much better
>>568232973how did they use up their whole ammo for one unit each?
>>568233354Stormvermin armor+no AP missiles
https://youtube.com/shorts/KtbQZrKG-f4I always forget about the watchtowers, one thing I don't miss from Rome 1
>>568232973Do a test with AP missiles
