>>570643454are you battles a slideshow with those unit sizes?
>>570642750Only one of them is a slut. The others are for one guy exclusively.
Ahem..FOR GRAND CATHAY
>>570642750
>>570644234No, I still get 45FPS with 40vs40 stacks on my screen at worst6,000 vs 6,000 and I'm still at a comfy 100FPS
>>570644498damn, do you have a super powerful pc or something?
>>570645101it's ok

I don't think I'm good enough to win the Lustria-bowl on VH/VH. I've tried Lizards/Rats and Khorne and have lost on all 3.
>>570645457>63 gigs of memory>two gpusAnon please tell me you're doing some insane rendering or something and this is not for insane Rome 2 unit sizes.
The latest 40k footage looks awesome
>>570645628>intel in 2026lollmao
>>570646640a mix of LLM dabbling and using one 4090 to render and the 2nd exclusively for frame gen on heavy games (Rome II with hueg unit sizes is still CPU limited even at 4k extreme) which gives me 20-30% better performance than a 5090 in games like Cyberpunk with NO latency increase because one GPU is exclusively used for frame gen and the other can just focus on rendering
>>570647751It's okay to be a broke boi, anon.
>>570647941wait 4090 have sli?
Tabletop Tavern is fun. I recommend it to fellow total war players.
>>570651438I was looking at that... Ill try the demo
>>570651040No, SLI doesn't exist anymore. Dx12 has EMA which makes multiple cards work together but it requires the dev to actually implement it. 99% of games don't support in EMA. Since rome2 runs on dx11, anon is only using ine of his GPUs. The 2nd one sits afk or maybe render whatever is on the other monitors.
Thinking about my post >>570636962Working tonight, but now I dunno if I wanna ride out that campaign or try resetting it and maybe moving even faster to try to get azhag and gorbad. I feel like I keep quitting campaigns tho. Also have a bunch of mods on that I think I might disable, or at least maybe rework on my own.
niggas was talkin' shit on flaming pigs in the last threadfight me nigga
What's Taurox Brass Balls' official power ranking? He seems pretty strong to me as far as LLs go
>>570659708He was top 1 in WH2, for 3 I think he's a bit weaker due to powercreep but he's still peerless among the Beastmen because those 3 still don't have unique mechanics. Complete jobber in the lore though he died to fucking Markus Wulfhart.
Loli. Legendary. Lords.
>>570665669Yes.
remember when the rumor was the next game was World War 1? and leaker swore up and down it war real?I do
>>570664789Race for this feel?
>>570667772the human race
>>57066645940K is the only real world war as it involves more than one world
>>570666459They cancelled it, like 3K2
>>570666459They pivoted once Legend caught wind of it like they did with Lords of Shang Yang, expect to here about it as a side game down the line
>>570651774Just use the "Recruit defeated legendary lords" mod bro
What do I even build in a complete empire province? I finally got to t5 settlement and demolished the growth buildings in minor settlements but I already have one of each recruitment buildings in the province. All that's left is duplicates, but a specific empire hero only army does not seem good so do I just spread them out? Even the tavern upkeep reduction for defensive armies is redundant with elsepths gardens
Which Lizardman faction/playstyle is the least boring? It's the last campaign for me to do, but I just look at them all and think 'ugh'
the units I got in this blood host are insane.
>>570666459Wasn't it confirmed that it got cancelled? CA had a bunch of issues. Cancelling Hyenas. Cancelling 3K. Poor reception of TWW3. Poor reception of SoC. Poor reception of Pharaoh. Layoffs. They must have cancelled some stuff because they had no money and/or manpower to make it.
>>570644309Alarielle is the slut yes.
>>570645628>>570649208OH NO NO NO look at this guys shintel cpu
damn so its basically like Rome in the normal campaign lol
>>570678198I mean.... Gondor is pretty much the Rome of Middle-Earth well the eastern part.Numenor was its apex.
I like the political map
>>570676479Hordes are always short and sweet and they got the pseudo horde croc
>>570678198>>570678518don't start TDD with Gondor! You will get your ass whooped!
>>570678646whats an easy start, orcs? gonna see how far I get with the big Gs though...
>>570678825Erebor and Dale are both pretty decent starts.At least when I played
>trying to revive kislev as empire>not too hard since the climate is uninhabitable>rebelion army spawns>immediately rushes towards aarabal at the edge of the province and dies>this spawns a blood host>now I have to keep two khorne armies at bay until the next rebellionGod, even when they're dead, kislev is still disapointing me
>>570666459They pivoted from it.
>town NPCs about fleeing the chaos of battleattila has lots of peak fluff
LL for this feel?
>>570679001I like the wild animals you can spot in Attila too :D>>570679084kek fucking hell that could have ended up with the guy getting stomped Giraffe hoofs are no joke
>>570678825Erebor and Isengard are comfy.Personally I like wood elves but you need to squeeze out some big wins with ambushes
holy shit these things are tough
>>570678198>>570678646>>570679513
>>570679252Luckily, there's just enough evolutionary pressure among mammals to "avoid getting Nurgle's Ebola by touching something that fell over and died right in front of you" for him to survive that.
does anyone know if theres a setting or something that makes it so new unit groups in attila don't start locked? a bit annoying I have to ctrl + g every time to unlock or else I can't arrange em quickly how I want nothing in game settings
wish the warhammer raze button did this
>>570680527It does for chaosbros
>>570675491Okay, 'guess I'll just spread it out, spam gardens and place a bajillion armies around the gardens until I run out of heroes to embed.
this fucking shit man, worse than orcsfuck off
>>570679001I'm not one of those people who's all>fantasy badbut it really is incredible just how much they had to strip away and dumb down for Warhammer compared to their previous games. Units in WH1 didn't even have mantling animations, they'd just run through fences and smash them.
>>5706683963k2 was a stupid idea and im glad its dead3k is still very good and all it lacked is more content
>>570642434In awe at how this dude lost this fight with so much microI'm 100% sure you could adopt a box formation and lost only a few infantry and no archers lostYou could've probably cheesed it even easier by corner camping and then kiting the wizard around casting soul quench (looks like he has it?) on the higher tier units (which isnt much, these all look tier 1/2 lmao)
i am luthor harkon
manlet uruks run in shame after being mogged..
>>570646038>I've tried Lizards/Rats and Khorne and have lost on all 3.How!? How can lose on Khorne? Are you stupid?
alright I see why gondor is hard for a first run...
>>570682532>In awe at how this dude lost this fight with so much microThat's the problem, there's too much micro. He could have deployed in a completely standard checkerboard and not touched the keyboard for 10 minutes and still had a better result.
how do you use vanguard units in this seriesif missile you put em forward and on skirmish to harass a tiny bit?
gonna finally give dark elves a try only race I think I've never touched
>>570683592Depends on the situationYou can send dog and light cavalry to hide in forests on the flank to run up the ass of their artillery and archersYou can send archers to skirmish if they have the speed advantage, or if you can cover them with archers if they get chased down by enemy dogs/cavalryYou can send flying casters to harass with spells, or strong flying heroes to divebomb artillery pieces and then leavingYou can rush city gates with meleeYou can use the vanguard area as extra playing space to set up a ranged killbox if the terrain there is betterYou can zerg rush the enemy army if they have stronger reinforcements coming to kill them before they can team upuse ur imagination
>>570683989what is these guys relationship with chaos anywaysisn't their god basically khorne - lite? would they fight for chaos in the end times or what
Is charge defense still broken in warhammer 3 (not actually stopping/damaging charges)
>>570683138Imagine him sticking his tongue down your throat as you kiss him...
>>570684712he's gonna have to push Queek out of the way though...
>>570683592For their intended purpuse? The unit usually tells you / it's really obvious
>>570684175They are the chaos killer race. Their god is khorne killer god. yes, they job in the lore
>>570680046I actually had a harder time adjusting to warhammers non locked groups because I usually arrange them before I group them like in older titles and then just move them making it quicker
>>570685295warhammer has another annoyance, when u group up melee/ranged units it defaults to either melee front or ranged frontholy shit just gimmie line formation nonlocked as default always
>>570684712
Favourite non-LL hero?
>>570677340Nu uh.
>>570685396I could excuse that were it not for the fact that half the ranged units are guns and the fact that the AI will SOMEHOW MICRO THROUGH your frontline if the ranged units are too close to it anyway.What I can't excuse is the game clasifying hybrid units and precursor missile units as ranged and putting them in the ranged line so you can't even make a frontline of frontliners by default
>>570685501
>>570680527It will in the end times expansion which is clearly meant to unfuck the map in general.
>>570685678wtf? katarin is only for karl tho
If the AI has more than 4 chariots / 5 cav I autoresolve. Simple as
>>570686435End times will be one of two things:>new campaign map with an alternate roster and objectives>IE with altered start positions and everyone starts in a military alliance and at war. Plus ET LLs with some OP mechanic to help and direct their sidesNothing more
>>570686458>how your Tzarina gf looks at you when you ask her to stop doing diplomacy with Yuri
>>570686997I choose to believe it will be the best possible interpretation. Also i guess we're all getting for free because of all the lord like archaon who will be on it? A lot of questions, honestly.
>>570686107She looks like this btw technology just wasnt quite there yet
>>570685501I think anything that spawns more units mogs the rest. Cultists, packmasters etc
>>570644309>Fay Enchantress...is it me?
>>570680527>osgiliath is one settlementafter years of playing third age and DaC, this is really weird to me
>>570691461never played, might try em sometime, but there's huge potential in the attila modspeaking of which anyone got any tips, I think what I need to do is never rally out of osgilliath, always keep a 20 stack there, smth like 10 stack in cair andros because they attack there too, and then one small army in the south or a fleet hunting the fucking corsair trashproblem is you build any of that and you can't afford to build up ur settlements until turn 50 lol, attila mechanics are so damn brutal compared to warhammer
>>570684479It only works on frontal charges and only while bracedThe two most common issues (not even bugs just bad game design):Flanking can be a bit inconsistent and sometimes frontal charges might grant charge bonuses anyway because a couple models ended up hitting the flankSome unit types like cav can't brace at all so they can't use CD even if some aura is granting it
>no 40k news>no LoET news>no Siege rework news>no Bretonnia rework news
Today I will remind them
>>570682532wh2 also had notoriously high AI melee cheats so all his spearmen were basically deadweight and triggered army loses while his archers were still healthy and with almost full ammokiting it out with eltharion would have been the way to win it
>>570692209It is pretty funny.Also I'm gonna need that Taldeer pic for... reasons.
>>570692209Well they were right in one part>40k doesn't work in total warFrom all I've seen, that's not total war. That's just "40k (insert random name".. has nothing to do with total war.
>>570692540>From all I've seen, that's not total war. That's just "40k (insert random name".. has nothing to do with total war.You can't actually explain why you think this way, because it's not true. You're just parroting stupid shit for the sake of it.>but uhh its not total war because uhhh uhhhh Yeah go ahead, tell us why it's not.
>>570692730If you've been here for at least a little while you'd know I am not parroting anything. I am known for the most controversial opinions.But alright..To me, it is not total war because it lacks 90% of total war, which is the grand campaign map. The struggle against running AI, the whole stance abuse to get fuckers to stop running away, the careful movement and the terrain fucking you in the ass.The fear of losing terrain, the fear of moving through corruption, all the hundreds of mechanics to change the campaign map.. it's all gone.While some factions are forced to spend lots of time in manual battle, like khorne and tzeentch, most of total war the in campaign map and that's just gone now.
>>570692730don't reply to passfag
This is not total war
This is total war
>>570693117>To me, it is not total war because it lacks 90% of total war, which is the grand campaign mapSo it's not total war because the grand campaign isn't presented in the same way it was before? You have the exact same experience when dealing with a system in 40k, several planets (representing landmass in previous games) with each planet containing battlefields, cities and the like. >The struggle against running AI, the whole stance abuse to get fuckers to stop running away, the careful movement and the terrain fucking you in the ass.So one of the worst parts of the series that most people simply mod out in one way or another.>The fear of losing terrain, the fear of moving through corruption, all the hundreds of mechanics to change the campaign map..it's all gone.What makes you think that planets wont have these exact type of modifiers that will affect your army in the exact same way? You still need to move across them to reach your objectives.>most of total war the in campaign map and that's just gone now.It isn't, they've presented it in a different way because the scale is larger than before.
>>570693603Yes, it is not total war, because 40k can't work in total war, thus this is not a total war game, it's a 40k game. Well figured out.What makes me think the planets don't have that? Cause they haven't shown them having that. It's presented in a different way, in a way that isn't total war. Exactly.
>>570693117This entire post is baseless conjecture
>>570692540>THE SACRED TW FORMULA!
Total War 40k reminds me of DoW2.. I love this game.. but this is not total war. That's the issue.>>570693775Exactly. If we turn CoD into an open world, 1 week long 100v100 battle, it's not CoD, it's Arma.
>>570693117>>570693728'It's not Total War' says the tertiary who started with Warhammer.
>>570693329>>570693413 I fail to see the differenceit's just provinces connected together, renaming the sea zones to "space lanes" and connected land provinces to "planetary provinces" doesn't change anything
TWW3 Good candidates for new tomb kings Playable factions?Besides the probably mixed faction of the great Necromancer coming up.
>>570693892I started with Medieval 2.>>570693914Then I have nothing more to say to you.
>>570693728>Yes, it is not total war, because 40k can't work in total war, thus this is not a total war game, it's a 40k gameYou're just wrong, your arbitrary standard for what is and isn't "A total war game" is completely irrelevant. >What makes me think the planets don't have that? Cause they haven't shown them having that. They also haven't shown Eldar in battle, I guess Eldar don't exist either. These kind of arguments are so fucking stupid.
There isn't a single total war where the campaign map isn't the worst part of the gameThe battles et least offer something that no other strategy game does but the campaign is miles worse than any other triple x or grand strategy title
>>570694021Well I am correct tho. If you take a Hexapod, like an ant, and give it an extra 2 legs, it becomes an arachnid. It still hunts on the ground, still murders its own kind, but it's no longer an insect, it's an arachnid.They might seem to do the exact same things but they aren't the same.That's the easiest way I can think of to explain this to you.
>>570694369Arena lacked a campaign map entirely and people didn't go around saying it "wasn't a total war game". Again you're just being pedantic and arbitrary over things that don't matter and treating your own line in the sand like some objective fact. It's not, and as long as you keep treating it that way no one will take you seriously.
>>570693413roll credits
>>570694478I dunno what arena is.. nor do I really care...but if it doesn't have the campaign map, it isn't total war.
so is this fun? does anyone play it? anon mentioned it a couple days ago herehttps://store.steampowered.com/news/app/3337380/view/668367347548946887
>>570694773slop that people hype and play for 4 hours before they go back to TW
Oh wait.. I think I remember now.. arena... wasn't there a total war that was like a 3v3 pvp where each player had like 5 units or some shit?And it flopped ultra hard?
>>570695064It wasn't 3v3 PvP, each player had 3 units to bring in to battle and team sizes brought the armies up to what you would normally have in a regular TW battle. It didn't flop ultra hard, it was a niche project that gained a small dedicated fanbase, but most people were put off when they introduced P2W. Like having to pay real money to get things like elephant units. CA eventually pulled the plug because they couldn't see a way to monetize it with how annoyed people were with the P2W elements.
>>570695298Ages ago, shamefully.. I was an angry joe viewer and I remember watching him play that. But to me it looked like it was a team vs team battle. Maybe my brain is leaking..
>>570694773nope, it's just being shilled to hell and back
>>570680046control + g? says it right there anon
>>570696684I know that pressing ctrl + g unlocks em, but it's simply annoying to have to do it every time, i'd rather when i make them with ctrl + 1-9 it begin unlocked, so I Can arrange em into lines myself, its the smoothest way to control ur units its a mild annoyance though, not a huge deal, but if there was a setting for "unit groups are created unlocked" i'd def tick
>>570692540It definitely looks fun. Even though yeah it doesn't look like total war. Maybe that's a good thing. Total war has been shit for years and maybe a drastic change to the formula is what we need.
>>570696928Mmm... I'm not sure if I like it yet. From what they have shown.. it looks kinda cool but I'm not really hype yet. Especially since I don't like the factions.I'll play it but I'm not convinces from the footage they've shown.They've gotta give me more.. preferably a demo for a custom battle or whatever.
lmoa, who said Gondor was hard? bitch king of Angmar just got merk'd by a garrison (with defense building)the only hard thing about this campaign is the lack of dosh
>>570693117I feel we need to see some footage of what the actual "campaign map" is going to be like before making those kinds of assumptions, though I agree that those tend to be signature tw characteristics
>>570697675Yes.. you are absolutely right..But before we see what those planet maps look like, we have to assume there aren't actual maps to move armies around in.
>>570697563I too beat down two 20 stacksand mordor shat out 3 more as Boromir army was recoveringidk manthe lack of dosh is so sadplaying Rome 1 made me realize, god you were so much in taht game from just a few developed provinces, more than even in WarhammerAttila in all its forms is poverty simulator
>>570697823Have you tried negotiating with Sauron?
>>570696907no u select them (like my units on the right), then press control + g and it makes an unlocked group
>>570666459I actually do believe they had planned a WW1 TW but that it was scrapped. The timeline makes sense for it at least; CA despite appearences and fandom bitching does, or did, try and have a biannual release cylce where theres a game every two years or so. Sometimes they don't succeed but they do usually try and make it work. Shogun 2- Rome2-Attilla-Warhammer-Warhammer2-Three Kingdoms, all games came out within 2 years of each other and Warhammer 3 was delayed a bit making it not match up. Even then they tried to have stuff to fill gaps like ToB and Troy, with Pharaoh also originally being marketed as a full game.Anyway, point is after Warhammer 3 it makes sense if they had a WW1 game planned originally, likely for 2025 or 2026. But perhaps the engine wasn't ready and they were eager to get to 40k(or maybe trying to make it in the older engine iteration made them realize they really needed a new engine for 40K in the first place) and so it was scrapped and now we have this longer than usual gap between TW titles because of it.

>>570699083fantasy bros we are MOGGEDscifi chads' turn
>>570697762From the small amount of information Ive been able to gather around it there is no grand campaign map, but a series of mini campaigns on each world that affect greater events in the galaxy. I don't see why these mini campaigns can't have the features you described, but if you're expecting to play emperor of mankind and go on your own great crusade and paint the map yeah you're going to be disappointed like me.Just do the damn space battles CA c'mon
>>570666459has any RTS ever managed to make WW1 fun without completely removing or minimizing the static front/trench warfare?how would you go about adapting a conflict where the defenders have the advantage 9 times out of 10?
>>570699313It seems like a whole system can be considered a campaign, though there are varying campaign types. Some are indeed just 1 world, others are a whole system(I think they said something about up to 10 planets).>>570699083Assuming each of the sort of squarish structures here is a settlement, worlds can be decently large it seems, not massive but I'd compare it to say fighting over a section of the world in Warhammer, like the Badlands, Darklands, the Empire, Cathay etc. So these worlds all strung together will likely make a fairly large campaign. Obviously we can't say any details for certain but I would bet corruption(once races it applies to arrive), changing the world etc. will feature.It remains to be seen exactly how connected the meta-campaign is. We did see a brief glimpse of a campaign theatre but there wasn't enough footage or clarity to make sense of. Still, I think its possible you may be able to sort of work your way through a crusade theatre which should appeal, though yeah if you are hoping for forming one big galactic empire it seems that wont be tenable. But IMO the alternative there would be making each world basically one fight, which isn't really accurate to 40K so IMO breaking systems into their own campaign layer in order to have worlds that are large enough to have big fights over makes sense.

>>570699580There is more to ww1 than the western front, the eastern theater was actually quite focused on maneuver warfare still..Even in the western front, for most of the war, assaults were usually quite successful (because everyhting had been shelled to shit before troops arrived) and the static front was a consequence of defenders having an easy time recovering the lost positions(as they now had the artillery advantadge) than due to said positions being unbreachableThe bigger issue would be unit size, since ww1 was the beginning of the 5/10 man infantry squads as the main battlefield unit

For a WWI game they could probably just call each unit an infantry company and call it day.

Are there a lot of AI bugs? AI attacked me, but now they seem to be stuck, not moving and just running out the clock, and I don't want to leave my great defensive position. Haven't seen this one before
>>570707329This kind of shit always reminds me of when older Total Wars used to do this thing where if your whole army was cavalry, it'd move faster on the campaign map too. I remember having rapid response cavalry armies dedicated to defense, with the job of riding around freeing sieges.

Tamurkhan's chieftain mechanic feels more like how WoC should work than any actual WoC lord
>>570707932Whore
>>570708189Yeah the default outriders are super underrated imoAlthough only the pistolers fire 360, outriders are front only
>>570708095Oh I'm sorry, but if you were supposed to mass recruit that shit it would be in the game in the first place, wouldn't it?Also>1 unit every 15 turnDo your allies missions you selfish bastard. You're missing out.
>>570707671Not dawi so they're umgak
>>570684479Charge defense never damaged charging unit, just removed their damage bonus. Charge reflection increases damage defending unit's damage when defending against a charge. Also charge defense only stops extra damage from charge bonus, but doesnt prevent collision damage if larger unit charges a smaller unit.

PhaseCon was kino. I didn't get lucky with the meet, and greet gacha, but I managed to trade one of my tickets for a Clio ticket. She wasn't able to make concrete statement due to contracts, and such. She did however heavily allude to the possibility that she has agreed to doing VA work for a Warhammer map painting game that isn't out yet. It's a shame that we won't be getting Clio in TWH, but at least TW40k will have one good thing going for it. I wasn't able to attend the Lumi meet, and greet so no news on that front.

>>570716535Early on yes. After 200+ hours when you know the meta strategies, abusing AI and whatnot, no. This is doubly compounded by DLCs because brainlessly OP DLCs sell like hot cakes, while challenging DLCs are bought by vast minority in comparison.

>>570728247Wood Elves and Vampire Counts only have oneBretonnia, Tomb Kings and Vampire Coast have noneJust off the top of my head.
>>570728648>Vampire CountsOh, of course. That is how it will likely remain with Neferata being changed from a DLC to an FLC.
>>570728610>>570728648well I wasn't counting the DLC factions, but yeahbeastkeks have only gotten one too
>>570728976Oh yeah, true. Kinda hard to remember beastmen only have one real DLC when they get freebies from every other WH3 dlc.
>>570728976Beastmemes have the most DLC aside from WoC actually>Beast Elementals from Kislev>Khornegors from Skulltaker>Nurgors from Tamurkhan>Tzaangors from Changeling>Slaangors and Preyton from Dechala>Chimera from Saryl

>there is an ice age mechanic in attila that gradually reduces fertility, on top of everything else that's fucking up the world alright I'm fucking pissed, is there any mod or something that makes this game less post-apocalyptic? Maybe more like barbarian invasion? this shit is ridiculous
Favorite mage character in Warhammer?
>>570733524Arkhan el Negro*Breathes in*>NEGROMANTIC
>>570733348There's a mod that outright disables it: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=584055643. I personally don't hate the mechanic in theory, I just hate that there's basically no way to mitigate it through good planning and infrastructure development, so I use this instead: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=635990190. Sanitation buildings now slowly increase the fertility rating of the province they're in and if you keep up with building them you can heavily mitigate the effects of the ice age.
I remember well when Attila assaulted the city of Rome with woolly mammoths.
>wurrzag is strength rank 3 at turn 10o-okay.
>>570733950thanks, i'll try yet another run with the 2nd modsanitation buildings are already the best buildings, if u can manage to build anything in that game, I wonder if there's smth that just boosts the economy, its ridiculously bad on any faction
>>570734265There's this for just a general boost to the economy: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1539225418. I'd test it out first to see if it makes the game more fair or goes too far into cheat territory.

>>570736463tamurkhan's not THAT bad. his problem is reviving the next turn
>>570738335Epidemius can hold him off for quite a while in the early game.The real scary thing about Malus is all of the army-wide buffs he provides.
>>570738523Yeah and his poopoo airdropForgetting about moves like that and ratnukes/chorfmortars is the most rage inducing thing in the game
>>570738675Warhammer 40,000 will unfortunately have quite a lot of this.Armies can benefit from both local planetary bombardments and even space fleet bombardments.
>>570682532He overmicroed which was the problem. His archers just kept rotating without firing with the delay after you make a new attack order.

>aspiring champions were one of the worst units in wh1>they're now one of the best units How strong will they be in wh40k?
>>570740564I mean you could spam Shades and win against any enemy army but I was hoping you would want to actually play the battlesBut yeah Medusas got a buff at some point and their multishot blast fucks infantry up real nice
Bhashiva teleportation = shokk attack gun Gretchin teleportation
>>570740738no, i refuse to single unit spam eitheridk the dark elves roster that well just started that campaign, but probably as usual, 3-4 cav, 4-6 melee line, 2 arty, rest archers and medusas, maybe a hydra and another monster for flavor, or a chariotgood ol mixed armies
All dark elf elite infantry are super cool, shame they're not very good. In the game or on the tabletop, actually.
>>570740738Still a shadow of what the Medusa was on release before she was nerfed to be cost effective in mp.
>>570741082actually maybe 2 cavplaying the older games these days, I realized cav is pretty weird n kinda shitty in warhammer, its basically like faster melee units, hammer n anvil isn't that effective, cav gets caught in melee way too easily, compared to rome 1 or attila you give a command and cav easily slides through the troops, and when they hit the back it insta breaks
>>570740795Shame they'll never go back and give Skaven true skitterleap
>>570741084>In the game or on the tabletop, actually.Not really. Elven warriors(all flavours) are superior to most other warrior units from other races. It's at the elite infantry that elves lose because of cost not stats. Too expensive for too little gain.
>>570741084Their infantry is just fine. The "issue" is that darkshards are always more cost effective.
>>570741531It's funny because when the AI does it, and it sometimes does, it's such a free win
>>570733524Teclis
>>570741084Dark Elves DLC will fix that.
I just wish witch elves hadn't lost their unique mechanic. That was such bullshit.

As the Empire, do you keep halberdiers around to act as defense up even at the late game, or do you replace them with yet more gun and/or cavalry?
>>570742546I wish they didnt nerf slavery just so they could port the system to Chorfs.
>>570742682literally me
>>570742768Any faction with good ranged can endgame by just spamming ranged it's just less engaging than mixed army comps
>>570742141
>>570742768on elspeth u can go all gun, ironsiders or whatever are decent in melee, can hold line while other ones line up to rape from the side if lines clash
>Playing tabletop tavern>Tell a cavalry unit to run away from a target it is currently engaged with>It runs away from a target it is currently engaged withTotal War bros...
>>570742768Halberdmanii are extremely cost effective and easily replaced if they get wiped. But if money is no object you could replace them with cavalry or even build 20 steam tanks.
>>570742845The fact that the chorfs got both the old slavery system AND the new neutered one while druchii just got cucked was a very interesting decision.
>>570742927giwtwm growing up in japan being bullied by a girl like this until one day I snap and have enough and revenge rape

>>570746351Timurids were kind of a joke desu.
>>570746396So were the Mongols, the emergent factions in Medieval 2 (and Rome 1 as well) didn't cheat nearly as hard as the later games.

>>570741525WaitWas bashiva teleportation a glimpse into warp spiders?
Will there be walls in 40k?I mean, there is some walls, but all lore points to something grander than stones or steel piled up in a straight line, more like zones with multiple defensive layers and bottlenecks, kinda like the japanese way of building castles.And people hate walls in total war so I dont think it would be missed
>>570763271Yes. It will be a maze like siege through a metal fortress full of kill corridors, blockades and turrets.No. The unit AI will not know how to navigate it.Yes, the enemy AI will focus on victory points exclusively. It won't fight unless you're in the way of them, nor retaliate from ling range fire
>bashava has infinite money as a NPC factionJust sold her a couple of settlements for 100k each, and a defensive alliance. No money troubles for the rest of the campaign lol

>>570775508>decide to kill teclis immediately before he becomes a problemBad move.. Teclis is bait. You've gotta rush to slay oxyotl. You have fallen for Tzeentch's trickery.
Ah, I just remembered my first Kairos campaign..>gotta kill Teclis!Teclis is gone and suddenly Kroq Gar has an aneurysm and attacks, tiqtacto comes flying in a turn later and oxyotl rapes from the west.Instant loss...
>>570772950>/twg/ will become /rttg/ within my lifetime.Button your shit up CA!Also have you tried the kobold leader? He's super strong as he spams T1 chaff and is part of the only race that can replenish after battle.
>>570775732I've cleared everyone at peasant difficulty, currently doing higher diff. My favorite is the one that prestige 2 units if you sack a city. Prestige = heal so if you got nice RNG you snowballed hard.
>>570775732>/twg/ will become /rttg/ within my lifetime.Lmfao. Fucking Dynasties has a higher all-time peak.
>>570776364Forget Dynasties, the original Pharaoh has a higher peak.
>>570776461Citybuilder Pharaoh or TW Pharaoh?
>>570776673Total War Pharaoh. The one that flopped at launch.
>>570776706Oh, I thought you might have meant the citybuilder.
>>570691190With Morathi in the picture, a Slaanesh sympathyzer, you say the Fay Enchantress is the one to be a slut.... the mystical and holy one who's been sheperding a nation for millennia. Okay, I guess...
>>570776814Sucks squire cock all day.
>>570741739Surprisingly AI cannot do darkshard stacks. Their hyperaggressive focusing of 1-2 units means most of their damage gets wasted and they start falling back when units get within ~80 units, so instead of focusing on breaking enemy army they get like one volley off and then shit their pants.
>>570705771Proof? Rule 34 doesn't count.I mean, Morgiana has been around for millennia, so she has probably slept with many people, because... well, MILLENNIA. But that doesn't make her a slut.
>>570780003Fighting darkshart stacks is cathartic if you've got just 2 units of cav since you can just run around killing them while they try to reposition
>>570772950I like how this game is not only a shameless TW ripoff (not a bad thing) but you can tell that it's ripping off TWW specifically because the unit stats are called "weapon strength" and "leadership," instead of "damage" and "morale" like they are in all of the other total war games.of course the playable races are a pretty big tipoff too lol they're not exactly hiding their influences here. >>570773071which game did it first? I know spire had a map like that eight years ago but the first game I can think of with a 3d woods map that looks almost exactly like that is Inscryption.

>>570738962I mean it would basically be their "magic" not every race has "casters" in 40k.And even the ones that do, they won't have all the different lores.Space Marines have the laser, IG has missiles and probably shelling, Orks will probably have meteors and ships to crash down on opponents and Eldar will have web way fuckery.
>>570790843All of these factions have literal magic caster characters who walk into the battlefield brandishing their wizard staffs and dropping spells on enemies

>>570809624Most of them have some sort of hook. From least to most fun:- Tyrion gets ridiculous economy/infrastructure buffs through his Influence commands, letting you build up elite armies/provinces really quickly. Most boring though,- Alarielle is a bit boring too. Her gimmick is leaving passive 10 turn PO/growth buffs to regions she visits. 20-man Sisters stack can be fun though if you've never done full ranged stack before- Teclis is Kairos-tier spellcaster nuking entire armies. Fun power fantasy for 1 army but otherwise rather lackluster- Eltharion gets the Horny Jail and best final quest. Also Mistwalker unique units. Pretty fun.- Imrik gets to play pokemon with unique dragon capturing- Alith Anar gets full skirmish armies and ambush stalk stance- Aislinn is just op. Spam Sea Guard and build Sea spirit stacks while having 100% secure high income home province

I should be able to mount Meow Ying

>>570813402Sometimes it will give you a close defeat when your units perfectly countet the enemy so it balances out.>inb4 you're supposed to manual every battleMaybe for the first two dozen turns / at less than 4 armies
>>570816643Really? Wulfrik is absolute cancer to play against with his 17k hp mamoth in my current campaign
>>570816037I'm just playing Teclis right now for the first time since elf rework and it's surprisingly fun if you confed saphery but don't teleport there. Multiple front campaigns are always super comfy. Also with phoenix court mod, so no easy confederations and you're forced to do alliances with fellow helfs and tardwrangle them from certain defeats. Fun.

>>>/v/741219029 Total War 3 Kingdom franchise what went wrong?

>>570817574The world doesn't care about chinese history
>>570818486Literally this. It doesn't matter how good the mechanics are if the setting is some chinkslop (same goes for games set before ancient rome)
>>570817574bad 1st DLC, the chink audience lost interest quickly>>570818673the chinks care you retard

>>570819110The world would rather play their gacha goonslop as evidenced by /vg/ catalog
>>570817574Game sold wellDLC sold well despite being a weird choice of DLCGame was intentionally sabotaged by CA so they could redirect funding to Hyenas.The whole debacle is unfortunate because 3K sold like hotcakes and would be due for a sequel had CA not irreparably destroyed their reputation in the asian market.
>>570820423>redirect funding to HyenasSo where's that money now?
>>570816037>AislinnI could never get into him despite the idea of floating around the world fighting chaos being awesome.
This is you LAST CHANCE to enter the Warhammer World Cup and prove you singlcels aren't bad at the game.
one of these days I'll actually play daniel
>>570820423>had CA not irreparably destroyed their reputation in the asian market.How?With Total War 3 Kingdom 3K?
>>570818770>the chinks care you retardNo they don't. Half of their history is redacted. Not just TienAnMen square massacre and co, but even that medevial period. 3kingdoms is popular because it ommits the crimes against humanity and nature each of the faction leaders commit on a monthly basis, so media portaying the romanticized version is allowed by the ccp (maybe even promoted) while actual history is not.A total war game in acual ancient china would involve so much mutilation, massacre, extermination of bloodlines, slavery and rape within your OWN faction, that stuff that happens in actual battle would drive off any sane person.

which LLs are the most challenging to play as
>>570824445Daniel, Markus Wulfhart, Boris Ursus
>>570817183>>570816859Yeah, Wulfrik is a monster on his mammoth but thats really not how he should fight. He was always just a mediocre guy with huge boasts on foot. He was a shitty melee beatstick on tabletop, but his gimmick was that he could enforce anyone to 1v1 so you just shouted at enemy Mage Hero that his mom was a redditor and beat the mage charging through the frontline to a pulp in a one-sided duel. Its a real shame they didnt port 3K's duel mechanics to Wulfrik so as a battle gimmick
>>570824720>challenging
>>570823585Oh so now the government wants to post crime statistics huh
>>570823585Then maybe she should fuck off while the lads are enjoying their foootoboll
>>570824445Wulfhart is number 1.>shitty mechanic that nerfs you and is a net negative>trash heroes>it's also bugged since the launch of IE>both progression and rewards are bugged by default but can get bugged even worse>units are trash against your nearby enemies>maps are bad for your favoured units>legendary lord is worse than generic lords and can only do Huntsman stackDaniel can deal with his surroundings, he is just boring. Wulfhart is unpleasant.
>wipe out moulder and azazel for Kislev>hope they'll focus on the north so i don't get stuck fighting arbal and archaon and can go save my dawi brothers in the south>instead they declare war on talabecland and get dragged into a war with Azhagguess I'm going to go save Boris instead
>>570823585Now I really want England to loose.
>>570826292It sucks he didn't get a mechanic change when the empire rework happened. The poor dude is shit and would have made a great horde faction allied to karl.
this line of sight mod for ranged units is a blessing and a curse
Funny thing for diplomacy what about how well you can do the pharmacy in Total War Warhammer 3 be affected by which ways you are and what race you're doing diploma she with like your diplomacy options are a lot better if you're more human or other line faction talking to another one the more chaotic or evil you are the more it is straight out demand or force in the others to do what you want by me such as intimidation?
>>570828793
I love these things so much because Chaos factions can't do anything unless they have a wizard spamming spirit leech on them.
>>570830540Yeah sometimes I also like turning down to easy, the AI never sees it coming when I have more units than they do
>>570831342whatever you say chaoskek
boris.... no.... now who will I gift settlements in the chaos wastes to?
>>570824326Hrvoje nisi na /sp/
>>570832048He actually only gets yellow climate in the Chaos Wastes.
>>570832471yea but I don't want to be up there. I'd rather just take settlements with Malakai and hand them over so I can move on. Guess it's all going to Mega-Kislev now.
>>570832661Tzarina Katarin becoming the master of the world is what Boris Ursus would have wanted.

>>570834792probably doesn't help that I'm stealing her treasury every turn when I gift her settlements
>>570835854This is basically the storm of chaos.
What is their problem...
>>570837658Seems they have a rat problem
>>570837658Khorne is ungovernable
>>570837658holy shit
when you play chaos do you focus on demon units or mortal units
>>570837658they're the bad guys...skaven are unironically the good guys of the setting
>>570840830Depends on the lord mostly, lord and hero bonuses generally matter more than the units themselvesI think that at baseline mortal infantry/cavalry is usually better than their demonic counterparts but it's purely a preference thing
>>570837658holy fucking based Khorne worshippers
>>570840830I base it on the general. Some I spec into demon leaders some into mortal. And for fun I might make a hybrid stack here and there.
>>570840830daemon infantry (other than daemonettes) sucks because they have no armor. With cavalry I think it's slightly more competitive
>>570842590YES.
>>570842806bloodletters shit on early, mid and late-tier infantry.
>>570840991We're all team skaven here!
>>570840830I actually played Daniel so I like the mortal units
>>570843089post more skykain ratgirls please
>>570843153Daniel is awesome. Mostly terrible, but the full demon roster is fun. Sucks there is no reason to dedicate to a god though, it just cuts you off.
>>570840991Skaven are the bad guys even according to otger skaven
>>570842997Exalted or regular?
>>570843709both. Exalted are obviously even better. But seriously don't underestimate the regular BL's
>>570843293Yea, I just stayed undivided too. Figured I'll get to lock in to a god when I play that faction anyway. The undivided buffs are what felt lackluster tho. Feels like an afterthought when it could've been (and lore wise seemed like) the main goal.Now that I think about it, his whole faction just seems like it got rushed out of a beta phase
>>570842997and get absolutely raped by ranged units, magic and cavalry
>>570844979Bro your flesh hounds, your cav, your summons, your furies?
why is the daemon prince so bad to play, anyways? I know he doesn't have a tech tree but is that really so bad?
>>570845157>weak lord>no skills>slow to unlock anything fun>lackluster gifts>also you get so fucking many side gradesDaniel just doesn't really do anything. That's his gimmick. You're playing an upgraded version of wh1 karl.
>>570845157no items, no skills
i think run/walk toggling has become an obsolete mechanic in TW due to the size of the battle maps and the way the fatigue numbers are tuned now, as well as all the vigour bonuses you can get.it's just a boring extra couple clicks at the start of the battle to set speed to 3x while you walk into formation, then set speed back to normal and never walk again for the rest of the fight.
>>570847437I have never had a battle that went on long enough to let units regenerate fatigue.
>>570847437I don't get why they nerfed fast-forward since Empire. In Medieval 2 it was hyperspeed.Can the Warscape engine not keep up?
>>570837658how did they keep the blood boiling while in the barrels?
>>570847437Name one real life battle where regenerating fatigue mattered
>>570850443in one of alexander's battles against the persians, he tricked the persians into staying up all night in formation while his tired troops resteddoes that count
Challenge: Exhaust Sigvald
>>570850343He liked the idea
>>570852547Always seemed strange to me that Khorne as the perpetually pissed off guy just sits on his ass constipated all the time
>>570853578Literally us howeverbeit
>have some important things to do>take a double dose of my amphetamines, intending to get it done>can't stop masturbating insteadLLs for this feel?

Haven't done a campaign this month yet.What's the gayest faction for the pride month experience?
>>570856210The Empire
>>570856210the left image unironically using the term womb for a dude lets me know it's a tranny
>>570856210Slaanesh unironic troon faction
>>570856210based diogenes
>>570850443Fundamental to roman strategy, total war can't even have a countermarch for gunpowder anymore though so no chance you'll ever see it for melee units
>>570850443nearly every battle where there were multiple assault attempts on the same positions, which happened quite often
>>570850443Carrhae, very famously
>this is the guy that caused the horus heresy and almost destroyed the imperium as a "loyalist"yeah man look at that trustworthy mug he surely wouldn't betray anyone to chaosIs the emperor retarded
>>570862512He did nothing wrong and is the protagonist of the setting. No one is as intelligent, successful, or handsome as him.
>>570862685Nothing more than chaos' bitch cuckslave
>>570856210 both are good thoughit's hot when boys look like girls and it's hot when girls look like boths, what's so difficult to understand about that?
>>570862512Before the horus heresy novels got started there was a strong implication that the 41st millenia people didn't actually know the history very well and were back-porting a lot of anachronisms the same way renaissance painters would show Charlemagne in plate armor. Once the horus heresy novels were written, GW was terrified of the setting not being recognizable, so the emperor has to be a blithering moron that doesn't notice or doesn't care about how obviously telegraphed the traitor legions are.
>>570862512The emperor literally gave no fucks about angron rebellion, stole him away at a pivotal moment, and made a deal with his former enslavers.He also ignored magnus warning about horus and instead, accused magnus of treason.What do you think?
>>570862512>I dont want humanity to ever be religious again>well I can certainly make an exception for this planet of religious fanatics and put one of them in charge of a legionHH books kinda assassinated the emperor as a character
>>570862512of course he is, the Emperor had a son literally named Horus Heresy and was shocked when he started a heresy
>>570864527>He also ignored magnus warning about horus and instead, accused magnus of treason.Magnus literally became corrupted by Chaos to give this warning to the Emperor and killed thousands in the process. The Emperor was a bit of a moron during the HH but this was perfectly justified.
>>570864691Dog he promised the martian priesthood total, indefinite control over all technology of his galaxy spanning empire as one of his first official acts.
>>570864472>Who might the traitors be?? oh gosh>A raving lunatic from a planet of eternal darkness>A guy too pissed to die>A guy that masturbates in the mirror constantly>a Mormonoh wow who could have saw that coming?Iron Warriors, Death Guard and Alpha legion were the only subtle ones

>>570868170Yuan Bo > Bhashiva > Miao Ying > Zhao Ming
>>570868170I love witnessing Indian online naive stupidity and madness, it's pure gold
>>570864472>so the emperor has to be a blithering moron that doesn't notice or doesn't care about how obviously telegraphed the traitor legions are....or blatantly pushes legions that could have been genuine assets to betrayal by being a fucking asshole, like not saving Angron's gladiator bros when all it took was the press of a button, letting Mortarion have his revenge 1v1, or simply informing Magnus of WHY he was forbidden from using psychic powers as his secret project was getting finished. Some of the betrayals would have been so damn easy to stop before they happened if he had just bothered with the slightest of gestures.

There's a reason Horus Heresy works better as a mythical pseudo-founding event. Seeing it on screen is just disappointing and no modern writer is good enough to do it justice. The Aegon's Conquest movie is going to fall in the same trap.
>>570869187>on screenIn writing, I meant. A Horus Heresy TV show would no doubt be even more dogshit.
>>570868873Easy, because your only enemies are the Mughals (who can't make it past a line of muskets) Mysore (a OPM), and Euros (it takes them 10 turns to sail to reach you (you've taken their city by then))Getting all of the spice islands is comfy
>>570868873because white mans burden, unfortunately its a falsehood that you can civilize savages, no matter how well you teach and dress a dog, its never not going to be a dog
>>570868873>>570869848I tried playing both empire and napoleonand there is something very very off with those games' battlesidk what it is the UI, the movement, somethingit just feels like dogshit to play, its unplayable for me, and I've played every single TW game, medieval 1 and shogun 1 included
>>570870278The combat AI is irreparably bugged and boring to fight against. Then add in the fact that you have to like nearly identical musketmanii factions.
>>570868680>letting Mortarion have his revenge 1v1In fairness to Big E Mortarion was gonna lose that 1v1.
>>570868680Something something 4d chess something something traitor legions were made to fall intentionally something something
eldar need to take responsibility for the fall already
>>570872650mortarion could have just sieged him out since it was the last mountain and would have won eventuallythere was no reason to take up the bet with big e
>>570873168>mortarion could have just sieged him out since it was the last mountain and would have won eventuallyThe problem is Mortarion was a retard and was going to crawl up the mountain to fight him immediately. Literal D*wi tier behavior
Keep the Dawi out of your whore mouth
>>570872650Isn't Mortarion legit the only primarch that was gonna lose his initial natal planet conflict? Apart from Angron getting crippled as an infant and then made into a slave, which probably shouldn't count and specially considering he's still one of the strongest primarchs.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WMr4XlYBtANew Medieval II fan patch just came out this month. Has performance upgrades, bug fixes, brings back the city viewer and let's you change your heir again. New era for Medieval II
>>570879037>and let's you change your heir againDoesn't this defeat the fucking point of a game set in a time period with primogeniture inheritance in most of the European kingdoms?
>>570874757i prefer total war dungeon siege
Miao looks like this?
>>570879868i played 1 and 2 but i legit can't name one faction
>>570879037Forget all thatProper free camera or no? There's a mod but it's retarded requires you to run shit outside the game
>>570880052That pic makes me diamonds.
>>570879251You would be correct, if vanilla MII had primogeniture. IIRC the game chooses your heir based on the authority stat, which you can't even see until they're already King. So manual selection is the only way to roleplay succession laws of your choosing.
>>570880052nipple
