I like this Thread
It makes sense for Chaos to scale for the universe they are in because they do not want to win, they want to propagate the negative emotions that fuel themThis is why Archaon wanted to end it completely
>>571887754explain your image to me
Med 3, huh? Sigh. We don't really car about that. It's set in the time period that Clio taught about in University thoughbeit. I expect she is excited to play it at least.

I voted for milan
>>571888150>9.0That's Siege rework right ?
>>571892248My liege...9.1 is a siege rework patch. 9.0 is supposed to be end times patch with some stuff related to that, like endgame, probably.
Most fun Dwarf LL factions?
>>571894024Thorek
>>571889210The sensible thing is just for natural enemies to share a collective roster that's split at the start and unified once they annex the other.Obviously every fucking England campaign and every Scotland every played is going to immediately involve conquering whole island and forming Great Britain, so why pretend that they're two distinct campaign experiences and not just two arbitrary sides of the same coin.Same with the Visigothic Kingdoms, and with the Byzantine Themes, the Italian city-states, the Scandinavian kingdoms and so on.
>>571895502The rosters are divided, by culture, faction and region. Every faction will have unique units not shared with anyone else, not even after being conquered.
>>571894024Thorek for machinegun quarrelers with 200 ranged damage, Malakai for some semblance of campaign goals
>>571896569I know.I'm saying that's retarded when two kingdoms share so much culture and geography in question. It's stupid to treat England and Scotland, or Castile and Navarre, as though they'll be as different (and require as much development work) as Poland and Georgia.Why would I unify Italy as Venice and NOT get Milanese crossbowmen?
>>571897224faction variety
>>571897224>england and scotland>same cultureYer dead ya dobber
>>571892592Grim.And what about 8.1 ?
>>571895502>>says factions are too similar>>wants to make them even more similaryeah great plan genius
>>571897224We don't know which units are faction specific or not, but you can imagine the differences between England and scots, it isn't really that hard.And obviously they'll share a fuckton of units still.
>>571898031Well yeah, they will talk about 8.1 first.
What do you call the nation that's capital is based in Constantinople?

damn, unification mod from DoW now works on definitive ed, it prob goes hard, but I'll try it later, unification is basically total war - lite, I'm on a total war binge rn and if I start playing that mod I'll burn out on both before finishing my long campaigns lol
Here's a few details I got from the Medieval III stream. Might have missed a few. (1/2)-Dynasties can conceivably move between factions.-Visual upgrades to arms and armor.-"You're not upgrading a unit, you're upgrading equipment."-"Characters will develop traits and skill-like traits as you use them."-They want to get away from the notion of generals/agents in specific classes -However, not every character can perform every role.-"Sometimes you can send [characters] to neighboring realms to engage in diplomacy"-"Here you just have characters." i.e., characters can be moved in between agents, generals, governors, diplomats etc.-"As a player you're playing as the realm, the crown."-You play as the ruling dynasty, but another dynasty could take over-"You're not selecting characters; you're selecting realms or factions. And the dynasties are the important pieces you care about."-Timeline: 300 years-"Like in Medieval II, it's about making the generic characters become as interesting as the main characters."-They want to emphasis "permanent progression" throughout the campaign via dynasties.-Traits and skills can feed back into the dynasty, affecting future generations.-When a dynasty is present in your faction and others, you can use them to influence those other factions.-New mechanic of "agendas" character will make proposals on policy, other characters in the realm will line up behind different options. The player can do whatever he wants, but too many unpopular choices could have negative consequences. (one example was on succession laws, seeminly confirming they'll be changable in the game.)
>>571903314-There are building slots, but no limit on how many slots you can grow into.-You use characters to establish trade routes. -Trade routes are between regions, not factions. -There are now internal trade routes. -Trade routes distribute strategic goods.-Three tiers of resource production. -Tier 1: Access to the resource -Tier 2: Above, and the ability to trade the resource -Tier 3: Above, and you can give other regions the ability to trade the resource -This mechanic seems to determine how you distribute resources throughout your realm, or how you trade it with foreign realms as income.-Just as you need a high enough population to recruit units, buildings also require people to function. Part of the intent is to organically create a sense of war weariness, where you might not be able to recruit more troops without crashing your economy.-The Jannissaries are an example of how you can transform your people with recruitment.-Distance to capital penalty will once again cause corruption, but is not the only factor. Intent is to incentivize various behavior like creating vassals, or maybe different taxation models.-Playable factions require a higher level of uniqueness-Map has a smaller geographic extent because for gameplay "it's the biggest map we've ever done"-"We see the HRE as one realm. There will be a lot of feudal dynamics, it's not one simple shade."
>>571903314>300 yearsso like until 1440? where does that leave gunpowdermed 2 went on until like 1550
>>571903509>where does that leave gunpowderCannons and culverins should still be in based on the timeline.
>>571903825>just after med 3 endsits over
>>571903509>He don't know about the "fall of Chivalry" DLC.
the mongol invasion better be a big deal tho
Gentlemen
>>571906006I wish I was a blood dragon
>>571903968Rifling was invented pretty early on, but due to high cost of production was never viable in a military setting (outside of specialist roles) until the mid-19th century.When video games depict "Rifling" in a tech tree, really what that should mean is "Massed Rifling".
>>571906128same... they're cool.I got an OC that fits most as a blood dragon but I aint talking about her here... she's my baby.
>>571906497never mind you just made them extremely uncool
>>571906497>herOh?
I have a Total War OC that causes the local region to undergo a breeding frenzy whenever she walks past. She is also endowed with numerous healing items and spells.
>>571906776Even the Beastmen have OC's now. What is the world coming to?

i was in a summer sale thread on /v/ and some dude was confused and intimidated by all the DLC lolsomeone suggested that CA should make a "starter pack" extra discounted, with the biggest "must have" DLCs, and the 3 games ofc, seems like a good plan, its hard to explain that they don't actually need the DLCs unless they wanna play as that faction, are there any mechanics or units locked behind dlcs if u dont play their respective LLs? Idk since I bought em all like a good goy
>>571908697are you retarded? there are races that feel incomplete without their DLC
>>571908697Champions of Chaos locks away a ton of units for Chaos factions.
>>571908859like what >>571908918it ought to be one of the mandatory DLCs for sure yeahidk the current system is stupid no one likes opening a dlc page and theres 20 dlc
>>571909039helves and skaven are the two worst offenders, maybe vcounts too
>>571909250
>>571909937skaven is legitimately unplayable without Ikit Claw, every single good or fun unit they have is locked behind owning him
>>571909250lmao
>>571910319Not true. You just use those units instead.
>>571910319>>571911554they're not straight up unplayable, but ratling gunners and jezzails are a core part of their roster
Haven't been following Total War since a week before Tiger Woman DLC came out? How was it? How was the 40K, Med3, and WH3 news?
>>571912367Bhashiva was fine, nothing special, fun for a few campaigns. 40k is shaping up to be good. Med3 may have as few as 6 factions at launch(less than Pharaoh) or as many as 10 depending on how many they add based on the recent feedback form. We've heard nothing about lotet still.
>own tww3 and some disparate DLCs>pretty happy with the handful of factions I play>think a change of pace might be fun>look at the dlc (+flc list)>end up buying king and warlord + twisted and twilight>try out greenskins>try out dwarves>keep playing dwarvesturns out I love me some dwarves and so the knife-ears and rats must wait
>>571912942shoulda pirated that shit nigga
What if Tzeentch made a second Changeling?
Bret peasant bowmen being bad is bullshit, the English were famed for their longbows
>>571913087What if Tzeentch fucked you up the ass?
>>571914121Bret are french
>>571913041ten eurocommunist work credits isn't that much
>>571912942You should absolutely buy Malakai too then at some point so you can reach maximum Dawi kino.At least until Bugman comes out, come on CA.
>>571914218no they're not, they're Arthurian legend and a mix of both
>>57191236740k showcase made everyone hyped since it was pretty good unlike the trash that was the first trailer
Total War: Arthurian Legends when? The King Arthur mythos are perfect for a Total War game. You have:>Camelot Faction (The Round Table, Normal Knights, Peasant levies, Archers etc.)>Fae + Spirit Faction (Lady of the Lake, The Green Knight, and legendary Fae like Melusine)>Mythical Beast Faction (Giants, Dragons etc.)>Demon / Daemon faction (Demon Boars, Devils, Demons, Antichrist etc.)>The Knights of the Round Table as Heroic Units>Druids, Enchantresses, and Sorcerers are magic unitsSince the time period for Arthurian lore is so vague, you could also throw in Charlemagne and his Paladins, Cu Chulainn and the other heroes of Irish Myth, and even Beowulf. all DLC of course
>>571914121the famed english longbowmen were yeomen, not peasantsyeomen were free land-owners, one step above peasants in the social ladder
>>571916526Sounds like a chronicles game, and every single spinoff TW has flopped, I wonder if they'll release another one ever
>>571912367We will be getting some news about end times dlc as well as some news about AI improvements in 8.1 at 30th.40k showcase wasn't bad all things considering, but there is still not much stuff shown about how campaign and factions will work.med3, CA is planning to get these factions at launchKingdom of England Kingdom of France Sultanate of Rum (Anatolian Turks) Byzantine Empire Kingdom of Jerusalem Holy Roman Empire There is also a vote for 4 extra factions, so there might be at least 10 playable factions. Papal states will be a dlc content pretty much.There is some controversy brewing about the size of a campaign map. CA made a stand that they won't half ass it and by that they mean if some playable faction should be in the game, it's whole territory should be included as well. It means milking. Naturally, The Nostradamuses have awakened to tell everyone that they predicted that.
>>571916705>Sounds like a chronicles game, and every single spinoff TW has floppedNah, I disagree. Those were way too niche and hyperfocused on one country or concept. Total War Brittanica for example never should have been made. There's simply not enough unit variety to justify a Total War game for it.But King Arthur + the other European myths that take place in the same time period is basically a goldmine for CA to draw from for lore, characters, and units.For example, the base fractions could be:>Camelot, Lord: Arthur>Camelot (Rebels), Lord: Mordred>Francia, Lord: Charlemagne>Hell, Lord: Merlin (anti-christ form)>Ireland, Lord: Medb>Denmark, Lord: Beowulf>The Fae Realm, Lord: Nimue, the Lady of the LakeAnd so forth
>>571897224>two kingdoms share so much culture and geography in question>England and Scotlandwell england is english and scotland is scottish>Castile and Navarrewell castille is spanish and navarre is basquehope this helps
>>571916526Arthurian Legends would be an extremely poor fit for TW because it was never about large unit tactics outside of a few major fights, it was always about small unit tactics where singular knights would distinguish themselves.It COULD be an interesting spinoff concept, with an emphasis on heroes.
first mod for total war 40k? turning yellow (trans-coded) las back into red, as the emperor intended
>>571919126Aren't they also supposed to be like star wars projectiles now? They'll have to make them laser like. And what the hell, how did gay workshop allowed Darktide and fucking Space Marine 2 to have lasers
>>571887289Why no spain faction? The ones who grew some balls and kicked the moors out.
Total War mythology would be the next step for fantasy total war. Just full kitchen sink mythology stuff adding myths and legends from all over the place.
>>571919431Muslim faction took Spain's space.
>>571919443What CA really needs to do is an original setting. Even a 'historical' original setting that leans into dark fantasy. Then you could have whatever game mechanics are fun, and don't need to worry about Byzatinaboos or various fandom autists.
>>571919403They came before the decision.My headcanon is that they changed it to make volkite weapons actually appear strong and "new". Volkite weapons are basically just red lasers.So how can this red laser be some heresy tech, when the guard uses this shit by the trillions? So they changed it.
>>571919701They don't have the creativity for that.Unless they join forces with a known writer or something, I doubt it would be successful.If they made a Total War Elden Lords shit would sell like hotcakes.
>>571918375>it was always about small unit tactics where singular knights would distinguish themselves.Depends on the mythos. In some tales, Arthur and his knights would run into battle and slay hundreds each. In other tales, Arthur and his knights would casually slay giants, dragons, and demonic beasts. Scale wise, Arthur canonically fought and beat his vassals to unite Britain, all of western Europe, some of Central Europe, and the Romans. That's a lot of wiggle room for large scale fights imo.
We are all oneeee
>>571919431>>571919582dumbass-kun... idiot-kun...
>>571914218>Bret are frenchAnd the British are French because both of them have ties to the Normans

>>571914121>the famous ""english"" bowmen were not from england
>>571919431Mandatory Reconquista preorder DLC
>>571919945> In some tales, Arthur and his knights would run into battle and slay hundreds eachI'm actually thinking of Arthur and his knights as the "small unit tactics" part of it.Like you could make a game that was all about managing Arthur's knights and a handful of retinue units; up against more traditional TW army sizes. But it wouldn't be a traditional TW game, it'd be more about the knights specifically.
>probably 8-12 factions at most at launch in med3>med 2 had 17, 21 if you count the unplayablesgrim
>>571916526This
>>571914218When Agincourt happened, Britain was part of France.
>people don't know that the Arthurian legends were French in origin
>>571919431After the muslim invasion shattered the Visigothic Kingdom, its rump state fell to in-fighting and eventually split into multiple sub-kingdoms divided along geographic boundaries. It wasn't until the Reconquista itself that they actually reunified under a single Spanish crown.>>571922393The Arthurian legend was Welsh in origin, then coopted by the Anglo-Saxons, then re-coopted by the French after the Norman invasion.
>>571922543It cannot be Welsh in origin, as the Welsh do not possess a language.
>>571922990well they are too poor to buy a vowel
>>571921381grom even
>>571921381They clearly are going to milk the fuck out of DLC, but they forget that if not enough people buy the base game then the DLC might get cancelled.Whatever. I don't care, I'm just glad I'm not a "PLS HUNGARY, WE FIGHT THE MUSLIMS" seether. All my factions will either get in or are already confirmed.
>autoresolve said this was a pyrrhic victoryI won in 50 seconds
>>571887289>map smaller than Rome 2 and Attila
I voted for Liao, Song, Jurchens, Mongols and Khwarazm :3
>>571926819Didn't they say it was exactly the same size as Attila?
>>571633445Yes it works. But AI enemies can't handle the range. Since they keep losing units before finishing the formation they'll just shuffle in place not being able to advance.
>>571927076
>>571927076Landmass itself is quite big, but it's less regions, that's why map seems "smaller"
>>571927273This is actually fine. A huge problem with Med 2 (and even Attila) is that Eastern Europe and North Africa are full of large areas of nothing.
>>571888381Vote!
>>571928348Which is the most disliked one? I wanna vote for that.
>>571929573Just take all Spain. It makes perfect sense if you want to get majority mad, considering current roster.
So... wheres the Rome 2 update?
>>571887289>RuZZia not on the mapOH NO NO NO! It's Kislev disaster all again!
>>571930362It's not until 2028.
>>571930539This is a good thing, Russia as an area is boring to fight in.
>>571930129Well yeah, I won't ever play that garbo so I just want history fans to have a pontus melty
>>571929573I don't think we can see official votes result.
Spain has El Cid, so it's actually an interesting region to play in. Perhaps one of these most interesting regions on the map.
>>571931073Yeah but history people know which one they hate.
>>571926819Just play the superior game, anon sama. Do it for kayoohs

I am possessed by a sudden and inexplicable urge to play arche seleukiaI am desperately hoping it will pass soon
>>571938618thank god it passed
>>571938618be a real man and play Pontus instead
>>571908697A good company would do a bundle you get 2 big packs and 2 small packs where you can redeem the big pack for all dlc for a single race (empire, skaven, helfs) and the small for a single dlc race (norsca, warriors, ogre, pirates, chaos dwarves, vampires, kislev, monogods, beastman, tomb king)But they can't do that.So I propose:All current empires dlc (only elsbeth from w3) , Champion of Chaos, Silence and Fury, and best would be a cathay or Kislev to push them.So full Empire rosterFull Vampire roster but only Ghorst/Vlad/Isabella as LL (via Graves) Full Chaos Roster with 4 choicesFull BeastmanNear full Wild ElvesSome Lizzies + brets for freeAdd a new menu for beginner campaign, reduce the map to the Bretonnia.Have Vlad, and Red Duke, Changeling, and Festus, Volkmar and Elsbeth, Moonclaw and Morghur, and Araloth and twins start there.No grand campaign mechanic, put the cities 2 movement turns away from each other and have outpost of Kislev, High Elves and Lizards on the edge so people can wet their noozle.
where is the square-headed ca sofia slav?is he alright? is he safe?
>>571931751I look almost exactly like this irl
here is my vote
I don't think I ever wanted to play total war less than after looking at this list. Holy fuck I'm flaccid rn. Warhammer save me... (not u 40k u suck)
Are our historical lords/generals gonna be properly dripped out or is everything gonna look like generic characters?
>>571888792>Italian City statesA general emphasis on infantry, crossbows. Venice had some novel light cavalry later on, they still of course have cavalry proper too.>SicilyConstantly bickering with the Papacy so likely an anti-catholic malus to their diplomacy. Were rather cordial towards their muslim subjects as they provided useful light infantry/archers/some cavalry that were completely free of any Papal influence. I forget if this point the Normans were still rather present in their vibe.>ScotlandPikes pikes pikes pikes pikes>CastileProbably the most heavy of the Spaniards. Cavalry is never as heavy as the French though, you get jinetes and shit. >AragonAlmogavars or super duper light infantry with good charge/bite.>AntiochJerusalem but with some Armenian units.>GeorgiaHeavy swordsmen (people usually refer back to their 19th century Khevsurs for a visual idea) and shit. Cavalry too.>PolanHonestly not sure. I assume they still had some auxiliary nomads but >HungaryMore access to auxiliary nomads>VikangzObviousContinuing
>>571947687they mentioned heraldry in the stream and showed off a teaser image about it and it looked quite bright so i don't think we'll be getting anything like modern film adaptations of the period at least
>>571946082lol all those countries for different flavors of spearmaniiHistorycucks on suicide watch
>>571948639nope I like spearmen actuallyin fact I love them
>>571948396Got bored, but only other two I am particularly familiar with are Almohads (Mixed light Moors, Medium andalusians, heavy Christian merc cavalry) and Fatimids (Chaff Abid slave warriors, medium Arabs and Armenians. You're not just another horse-fucker faction which is neat and you are Shia so everyone hates you).>>571903314Very happy about dynastic movement, that sounds like my hotseat singleplayer desire.Very not sure about the HRE as one "Realm". It depends if it's one faction or what. For such a tremendously disunited entity having it be "You control all the units and all the settlements" is really a terrible choice and goes against the idea of creating vassals. That said they said realm not faction, so I'll reserve judgment but making it a single faction would be ass.The map not including the Novogrod Republic feels weird. It wouldn't be a big deal to loop up to that area and then still keep the steppe uninhabited, but it still feels stupid to have that steppe be inaccessible instead of just lightly inhabited by Eastern Cumans. No Khorasan also sucks when it means you can't play Khwarezm, it'll just be Seljuks getting slapped by first Khwarezm and then Mongols.>>571948740It's a bit less applicable in medieval times but a good way they could vary up spearmanii will be to give them different animations. I like how helf/delf spearelfii look different to empire spears or orc spears. Not just visually but in the animation and way they fight.
>>571948639Yeah, shit is mad boring.
>>571887289No pagan Lithuania? Boring map.I predict a very lazy release. Back to modded Med 2 and Rome 2.
>>571887289The correct options in any order based on this map placement are;>Venice>Portugal>Norway>Almohad CaliphateDLC can add Poland and Sicily but right now Southern Europe and Northern Europe are empty and so it's more crucial they get both get a playable major power ASAP
>>571953378>portugal on a medieval gamePortugal is literally the least relevant of the iberian kingdoms in the game's period, their middle ages are just too boring, 400 years of nothing until the XVIth century rolls around
>noooo please make it 20 factions that are practically the same shit on launchThen you wonder why historical games fail, they're doing the right thing of actually making each faction more unique to play.Warhammer launched with 4 factions and it had way more replayability than any other historical game.

geez warhammer really spoiled me it takes fuckign AGES to get your iconic unit, hussars on tier 4 stables which take forever to build up + a lot of money
I really like how arrows in med 2 seem to have some impact, they make the models stop running and stop for a bit when they get hit
>>571962479you're only on turnwhat the fuck
>>571962965keknahvanilla beyond shows the current yearits turn uhhh ill check after this battle probably 100?
AI sure loves this unit
>>571947687Dynasties are separate from kingdoms and can even move between them so yes characters will be dripped out.
I'm playing Dawnless Days and holy shit, I forgot how badly the Attila AI gets legitimately lobotomised as soon as you enter an alliance with it. I thought it was bad in Warhammer but this takes the cake.
>>571946082Which faction if i want to pajamamanii maxxing ?
>>571963465what? when I played gondor rohan AI was brilliant while being my ally helped out in isengard and later fully rebuilt from just 3 settlements, it also immediately colonized any ruins
>>571963556try to give em orders btwwar coordination tragetsunlike in warhammer that AI actually listens
>if you move an army alone anywhere and not in tandem with another army you just always lose itLove this game mechanic.
>>571963792How do the kids say it?"Skill issue"?
>>571954867who are the squires of 40k?
>>571963792are you talking about medieval 2 or something? cause that happens sometimes to only-captain armies when they get bought out lmao, quite bs, if they have a general in there it rarely happens tho, i've also rarely seen it happen to sufficiently big stacks, but i dunno
Eldar guardian x sister of battle will be the new squire x bladesinger
ONE dude held the unit in check while that charge broke them lol
>>571964473>Xenos male human femaleHow about kys instead?
>>571964887At this point it's easier to self insert as an eldar than as a brownperial
>>571964717the battle for constantinople is not an easy one
>>571965106>brownperialisn't the big e himself a turk?
these siege maps would be peak with better pathfinding
>>571953378The playables are all concentrated in a cerain area, which would suggest a good idea to have an Iberia focus for 2 and a Eastern Europe focus for 2. But now I am realizing the Kievan Rus aren't even playable. When Georgia is but they aren't that's so fucking weird.>>571965180Predates Turks by like 4000 years. He's not even Indo-European if we go off the old Anatolian thing so not Luwian or hittite. Never understood why everyone just agreed to represent Hittites as shitposts-with-wolf-shirt native americans.>>571965606People forget how bad pathing was in R1/M2.

>>571908697>>571944307Make TWW3 completely Free to Play with Bretonnia being free base game faction, even works for cross shilling with TOWDelist TWW1 and TWW2 from steam store, turn them into separate base faction dlcs so you can get Empire faction without paying for VampiresRename TWW3 into TWW Ultimate or something like this, essentially finishing backtracking on that retarded trilogy thing which caused such a mess. There is only one game now, the way it should have always beenSplit every old Lord Pack into a separate minor dlcs, just like newer dlcs workRename dlcs into following patternEmpire - Base (Gelt, Karl, Volkmar)Empire - WulfhartEmpire - Elspeth Empire - Todbringeretc

>>571966761No it's just the style to make whitey bend the knee
>>571967304there ain't nothing "deutschland" about that team, at least the turk team is filled with turks, really don't understand sportsball, getting so passionate about a team that's run by some dubai arab filled with mercs, but they put your flag as a sticker so now you have to seal clap when they put ball in net
>>571945895For me it was Venice, Fatimids, Norway and Castile in that order.>>571967148>More muslims are needed than 1 fucking faction, that's just ridiculousAfter playing and getting into Total War Pharaoh, I DESPERATELY need more TWs with graphics up to date that let me play around the Nile area. It's fucking beautiful. Even got me replaying Expeditions Rome so I could get the Cleopatra ending again.
>>571966375easyI like how in medieval 2 sieges you get a bunch of time, you only have to fight when you run out of supplies so you never actually take attrition for no reason, the AI usually takes its time sieging though, human player can go in after turn 1

>>571968141their aura ensures the enemy is too scared to go in so the towers are just raping them
loldefender advantage is so big due to how strong walls are
>>571927076They said previously that they were aiming for Attila's size and using its map as a yardstick.When they revealed it today they clarified that it will cover less geographically than Attila on release (basically just cutting southern Arabia and a bit of eastern Europe but that the map is much more zoomed in than Attila's so in terms of overall in game size it will be somewhat larger.They also claimed that the new engine allows them to potentially expand the map in the future

why do these faggots get excellent archers, op heavy melee cav, then some insane heavy units too? byzantines are OP in vanilla beyond zzz
>>571976345*releasing a MacOS port
>>571976475>why do these faggots get excellent archers, op heavy melee cav, then some insane heavy units too?Sounds like pretty much every major faction in M2 to be quite honest.
>>571976345that means they managed to port attila to 64bitCA is too proud and retarded to ask feral-chads to port it to PC as well

Hello everyoneDue to steam sale and recently dabbling in tww3,wich ive been having tons of fun id like to check out some older historical titles.What caught my eye is mostly rome 2 and attilaAttila intrigues me the most since ive seen people online quote it as the hardest tw and have mentioned how compared to tww3 for example its much slower and somewhat foreboding and atmospheric,all wich interest me,would such examples be true?are the optimization issues still a pain?Id love to hear your opinion on wich to start and why,if you dont mind abit of spoonfeeding and talking on the wants and hates of those 2 games.Cheers all
>>571993918game runs fine if u have a decent PC, just do that trick where you set cpu thread count to how many threads u have in the .ini its p simple, go rome 2 if you're a romeboo, go attila if you like hard survival mode TW

Why are they leaving playable factions to a vote? Players don't know what they want. Playable factions should be decided for game balance and historical significance. There no vision when left to a vote.This is Paradox's fault. They did this shit with EU5, and it ended badly. CA is just too dumb to take the right lesson.
>>571976939Kerillian is strictly a bratty bottom.Despite what she tries to show.
>>571998556They already said that the vote is not a guarantee of being playable, it's just a gauge of interest. If they ended up deciding that Iberia needs a playable faction, for instance, which is likely, the vote would give them a good idea which one to choose or especially get their faction mechanics right.
God i love those armor upragdes
>>571996732All of them are heading to Morathis quarters
>>571998556When the game fails, devs can be like: "we implemented everything you wanted, it's your fault it's shit".
>>571998927>which is likely, the vote would give them a good idea which one to chooseNo matter how many people want Portugal or Aragon or Leon, you must have Castile before any of them.

>>572002450Do you think Slannesh protects his followers from STDs? He wouldn't want his followers to convert to Nurgle.
did they really go into battle with these massive decorated polearms or is it just a style thing in med 2
>>572002538its a big state
>>572004414I think those are jousting lances, and probably a exaggerated for visual impact. I have seen them depicted as colored, but who knows for sure.

>>571945416heyy
>>572009723It's neat but they don't have custom maps for shit like Minas Tirith so get ready for recycled Attila maps.
>>572009598https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdDh4-dAzBI>>572009965This actually makes them very likely to be one of the first dlcs for Aeldari faction (named as such since it includes Harlequins, Craftworlds, Ynnari, Corsairs and soon Exodites), since they will be new models.Hell, Biel Tan is known for having plenty of Exodites in their ranks and they are even base game faction clearly
History chads im pretty hyped
>>572012891stainless steel?

trying out 0.98 rn, it works I wonder why the text is so blurry though, I guess because it uses its own font opposed to the vanilla medieval 2 one? m2ex upscales the vanilla one
>>572016108Yes.
>>572016319figured it out, you need to delete descr_font_db.txt in the data folder of the mod

stainless steel just werks too
>>572014770I just tried 0.99 with m2ex. It seems to work... I just unchecked the launch EOP option on the SSHIP launcher
>>572021053this mod adds some drippy ass units to poland
Playing Dechala for the 1st time, what i'm supposed to here for the objective ?
>>572021787Nevermind, tried playing byzantines and running m2ex just doesn't let you recruit units. Someone try and see if you get the same issue
>>572021787>>572022804try if there's an uninstall EOP optionbut I believe its integrated into the mod and thus incompatible, so its gonna have issues w stuff like recruitment since it counts as a script type shit using EOP? I guess
>>572012609Soulless
I just realized something I never did before while playing Medieval 2, cities don't appear in the distance on the battle map when compared to Rome 1 do they? Fought by Rome itself, should be right by it, but it's nowhere to be seen.
>>572024324yeah i don't tihnk that happens for the random battle maps
>>571887289This game is seriously dead on arrival with such a limited base roster. They'd need to add at least six of the faction vote candidates to make a halfway decent game.

any news on m2ex? github hasn't been updated but I know discord has several updates already
>>572031583uhh, the last major fix was one I requested a few days ago, it was the batle camera bumping off the ground all the time as you moved it, making it really shitty n unsmooth, it's been fixed since, now the mod is basically flawlesswell the next planned feature is range rings for ranged units (big one) combined with some minor shit pic relthere's a test build for the ranged rings but I hear it has crashes, so if ur downloading off the discord only use #releases
>>572031796I'll wait for github stables, no need to deal with crashes
>>572032001well 21/06 is both the latest on the release channel and on the github rn
>>572032305I'm glad this got released before EB2 2.5, the eb2 main dev seems to be paying attention, would be amazing if he would delay the update to make sure it works well with m2ex, he might do that
>>572031116Ogre butchers and gorgers are the single scariest thing in the setting to me.

>>572033764disdain for plebs
>>572033350>Is that REX exe also for BI and Alexander ?ye For Rome 1 DLCs you need to use different .bat files that downloading REX provides - REX launches base game with REX patch. REX-BI launches Barbarian invasion. REX-AL launches Alexander. The situation is similar for Medieval 2 DLCs (kingdoms expansions). You surely will see what matches what. the expansions are treated as mods and theres a handy way to launch mods w a shortcut tho thats what im using for anything med 2haven't played the rome 1 patch
>>572034117CA is so useless they couldn't make a rome 1 definitive edition
>>572033838>>572034117Nice, thanks for the answers.
>>572034387well rome remaster existsthe UI is ugly as fuckk but its not bad rn, the features it shows qol stuff etc is genuinely useful, such as a readable income bar, i have no fuckin idea how to read the medieval 2 one to this daymed 2 didn't get shit tho, THEY WON'T EVEN PUSH OUT A 1KB PATCH TO CHANGE THE MISSING ; IN THE .TXT FILE TO FIX DIPLOMACY, I genuinely don't get why they can't do that at least, 0 respect for the game

>>572012609>>572009598Valarak says they will get expanded into a full subfaction over the corse of 11th like Corsairs were after KT
>>572040934I assume they'll get 1-2 infantry units and some big dinosaurs
>Dechala can get Stalk Stance with a purple Item>Item usable by any LordNice.
>>572041218you have to play dechala though
>Almost July of 2026.>Still no Neferata.>Still no Thanquol.>Still no Bugman.>Still no Yin-Yin and Li Dao.
>you have to play dechala
>>572041493Neferata was revealed in trailer, we've seen her model
>>572040934yeah, so they will be units for "Aeldari". Eldar faction in TW40K is also called "Aeldari" and not "Asuryani" which are Craftworlders explicitly. So it will have Harlequins, Corsairs, Ynnari and Exodites eventually, at least initially, if they become popular enough GW can try to split them away. But those are all pretty obvious, given, DLCs for Eldar. And personally I'd sell Iyanden and Wraiths separately too kek, hell even Mymeara if I were desperate Eldar legit are one of the biggest factions"Drukhari" have different Dark Eldar factions. Wych Cults, Kabalites, Haemonoculi, but also Incubi, Mandrakes and Mercs in theory are separate subfactions as well. With how much newest Codex teased it, Mandrakes might legit be expanded just like Corsairs were and I wouldn't be surprised. Kheradruakh at least should get a mini. And Mandrakes got a Kill Team relatively recently as well
>>572026863everyone knew a game set in one country would just be mirror matchesa game set in all of feudal europe needs, at minimum, the major powers and their respective default rivals
>>572041860She's still not here though.Also for fucking real though, they announced her back in 1, baited the shit out of us in 2 by adding Silver Pinnacle, they revealed her model months ago, and we STILL don't have her. She's by far the most cockteased LL in the game, her campaign better be fucking amazing.
>>572042003>still no chaos eldar>in current yearshameful display
>>572042003nobody fucking cares faggot
>>572041493Summer last until late September, CHUD.
>>572042287Why would they ever join Chaos?They are guarranted eternal torture by Slaanesh
>>572042880why does anyone join chaos? you are guaranteed eternal torture by whichever chaos god you follow no matter who you arethe eldar are directly connected to the birth of slaanesh, dark eldar already act like slaanesh cultists (but aren't because um um uh um shut up!!), but there's no actual chaos eldar in the game? chaos is just a humans only party for some reason?
Truffle Hounds when ?
>>572043291yes bitch now stfu no one wants more uninspired chaosslop
>>572043291Not NurgleKhorne you more or less get what you want eternal battle and struggleTzeentch is RNG
>>572042880Not if other 3 Gods shield them from Slaanesh in an exchange for servitude. Isha was stolen by Nurgle after all and Slaanesh couldn't do anything about it. Should be even easier with non godsEldar Daemon Princes were mentioned even long time ago and apparently they were so priced by their patron gods they weren't allowed to leave WarpMandrakes are weird Daemon like beings and two of their kings were chaos aligned, one to Nurgle, other to Tzeentch>>572042401It's relevant and important thoughbeit
>>572043291>you are guaranteed eternal torture by whichever chaos god you follow no matter who you arenuh-uh, I'll become a demon prince
It's still stupid how the emperor isn't on the level of the chaos gods if not more powerful, 10 000 years of worship by untold trillions, probably more in total than the I direct emotion energy chaos shits were feeding off before him, this is more direct
>>572044606>the emperor isn't on the level of the chaos godsSource?He casually bitchslapped nurgle and set his shit on fire
>>571887289>I voted for Egypt, Milan, and PolandWhat do my choices say about me?

>>572045303you're based
>>572045303You can't count up to 4.
Finally got the Bhashiva DLC during this sale and... bros... I kinda fuck with this campaign? She might actually be my favorite Cathay LL now. Everything about her just feels right.
We know more about med 3 than 40kLet that sink in
>>572045987fucking furry
>>572045303I voted Egypt, Norway, Castile and Benis.Just the fact we're sharing Egypt makes me call you my brother.
>>572045602lol, I can't remember who I voted for in 4th place.
>>572046139Maybe if she had tits.
>eldar>orksdo people who are into 40k actually like these factions or are they just pretending?
>>572047106they're decent npc factions, only factions I ever play on soulstorm n similar dow is imperial guard, necrons or sisters of battle
>>572047106Orks are the best faction in 40k what do you mean?

what's the must buy dlc for warhammer 3?
>>572048129the creampie dlc
>>572048129The Queen & The Crone. The DLC that focuses on the only factions that matter.
>>572048129I don't know about must-buy, but here are the powercreeping pay-2-win DLCs.DechalaSaylYuan BoChangelingGolgfagMalakaiTamurkhanChorfs
>>572048129Depends on ur fav factionIf it's empire like me, elspeth is must buy
>>572048809>MalakaiPay-2-win my ass, his mechanics might be strong as hell but he's also got the single worst starting position of all dwarf factions and possibly one of the hardest in the entire game. You NEED those mechanics.
>>572048809>chorfs>pay-2-winlol, yeah, if you can avoid being raped for 50 turns
>>572049792Just confederate the minor faction that has Zharr-Naggrund
>Felix has a unique skill where he increases growth in your provinces.>Recruitable by dwarf factions (SPECIALLY by dwarf factions).Bros...Is Felix...Making half-dwarfs...?
>>572042003This is fanon nonsense.In the Ciaphas Cain books, it is explicitly stated that all Eldar are the same and there are no subfactions. "The Dark Eldar" are nonsense made up by Eldar apologists.

Greetings trve vnderstanders, I'm about to play Pharaoh for the first time, what faction should I go for? Or do I just play Troy for a laugh
why rex doesnt work with rome remastered?
>>572055431Play Tausrett's husband. Have her help you out then annex her unilaterally.
>>572055431Any of the Egyptian factions are good for a first playthrough.
>>572055431>tfw I do not vnderstand...
>>572055431If you were a trve understander of strategy, you'd know that Egypt was a barbarian faction that the playerbase has no time for.
>>572052521fun fact. Exodites are only two years olders than cold one knights, having been first mentioned in 1990 while cold one knights first appeared in 1988
>>572052521I think it's more about the lore flavor. People were looking forward to eldar that were neither disturbing sweat goblins like the Deldar, nor asshole manipulator 2haughty4u Craftworlders.Harlequins were actually perfect for that, but apparently GW gave up on them...
>>572059149You kidding me?harlequin are the most explored side of eldar due to them being neutral entities and as such, can be used in a shitload of plots
>>572059264GW made a VERY half-assed attempt at making Harlequins into their own separate faction to play, gave them half an army list that put them down there with Imperial Agents as "armies you're not supposed to actually collect", and then by next edition they just deleted them and they went back to just being loose units for the other eldar/occasionally getting mixed into Imperium/other sapient xenos races as ally contingents.
>>572059558Imperial Agents are a more legitimate faction than, say, the Adeptus Mechanicus.
>>572059719It's not about legitimacy as a fighting force that'd deploy in armies, it's about actual army list. Imperial Agents are like 90% characters, with just a token amount of actual units/vehicles, some of which they even just borrow from other more comprehensive Imperium armies. You CAN make a full Imperial Agents army, but it's clear GW don't expect you to present as an Imperial Agents army, rather you'll be an Imperial Guard/Sisters/Marines/whatever army and then go "and btw I've included an inquisitor/assassin/a random squad".Harlequins were largely the same, if memory doesn't fail me, they had like one single unit of actual line infantry.
>>572055351>dress more scantily than regular eldarsource?
>>571967148in the stream they said they wouldn't add a faction (or at least not more than 1) that was next to one of the established factions, so I'm guessing that the east and south will be filled out with maybe 1 of the most popular ones added wherever, and they'll keep the list on hand for knowing who to release DLC for first
>>572060269They had a single unit.They had no place staying a standalone army if GW had no intention of filling their roster.And honestly? I don't think filling their roster would be good, they are clowns, they are the cream of their race, and they fight in close quarters.I see no point in trying to expand this.Much better to make exodites the official 40k wood elves, much like votann is the 40k dwarfs
Impregnating sex with nurgle chosen(female)
Daemons of Chaos should've been a Norsca or WoC faction, that allowed you to be a human who ascended to daemonhood. I know Daniel gets shit on a lot but this campaign deserves it. >>572063608Could've chosen better anon

Undead general.
so I started dorfing around and I've mainly been trying to do clan angrundthis start SEEMED great but turns out it's pretty ass in practicethe only thing that seems to work is to instantly go burn down clan skrye and hit aranessa over the head with a hammer as otherwise they will gank my ass the moment I get into a war with anyone elseskrag always blobs and (eventually) fights aranessa if she doesn't attack me for some reason but towards me he's been a jolly chubby friend every timewelves and empire have been totally indifferent, except empire always wants trade and NAPany tips apart from git gud
>>572075934Belagar is not a regular campaign. You need to carve your way through badlands and retake k8p. Playing wackamole with Ikit wont work.Confed with the minor dorfs, take major settlement with minimal losses, merget the units into a single army under belegar and rush to k8p. dont invest into any buildings untill you take k8p.
>>572064038Why does the fanbase not understand that worshipping Khorne literally makes you ripped?
>>572075934>any tips apart from git gudGet lucky with who declares war on youAlternatively the AI (Ikit) is less likely to fight you if you're already throwing down with a ton of other factionsEven though it should be the other way around

which is cooler: Greeks or Romans?
>>572079918Romans.But according to the Romans, the Greeks were cooler, so who knows really.
>>572080051>Romans: Wow the Greeks before us were so cool>Brits: Wow the Romans before us were so cool>Americans: Ew gross
>>572080668Americans are huge Romaboos.
>>572080051Romans only started simping for Greeks after conquering them
>>572080978Actually, it was before. Probably even prior to the Republic era. The influence of Greece in Italy was pretty widespread, the Romans even fought in Hoplite style initially. Greece was the preeminent civilization in the northern Mediterranean until the Romans.
>>572080668>Ew grossits amazing somebody could interact with burgers all the time on this website and still not understand them

>>572083040

finally got the iconic unit 100 turns in
>>572093831The wish they were this cool.. But now I really wanna listen to the winged hussars song from sabaton.
>>572094034winged hussars dont exist in base med2 sadly, maybe they thought they were too "pseudo-history" and didn't believe they actually used embut they did... a bit... its in mods tho and i think empire/napoleon TW (the 2 worst total wars lol)
>>572094243You can make a stack of burning pigs but winged hussars was too much?
>>572094572well maybe the rome 1 backlash was the reason they kept it more grounded idk lol, or they just didn't wanna make a unique model for a minor faction
https://youtu.be/LvVu4SYt00wOUR GUY UPLOADED FINALLY
>>572094243Winged Hussars weren't a thing until the late 1500s, the guy campaignposting is in 1274

Empire and Napoleon are fun actually
>>572095345So how does shooting work in these larps? If someone fires a gun in your general direction are you supposed to go "well I guess i've been hit" and lie down?

damn
this is why roads is the best upgrade
fuck they're getting closer :)))

>>572092448cuck mod
>>572100146I think you can demolish their buildings but its too much work cbaif you upgrade em its + income with a minor public order debuff
a good 10% of my whole campaign is spent sorting through which units have low troop numbers so I can toss em or disband em later or merge, just army managementno easy replenishment is brutalI believe rome 1 remaster made this easier, and you can retain and replenish much eaiser in towns, in med 2 just doesn't work that easily
>>572101259>tfw your empire implodes because you let the jews in to boost profit marginsThat mod creator is too gigabrained for this world.
yuup nothin like a good ol hammer charge while some sabatonslop blasts in the bg...
Know what I really dislike? With a trillion LLs everywhere, every single campaign is the same "fight this absolutely stacked LL by turn 5-10 or die". And by that time, unit variety is 0, items haven't been found, it's just a good old grind fest against an overwhelming army. Sometimes it's doable, like when you have Tamurkhan or Tyrion or anyone who can really put the pain to the enemy LL but I played tiqtacto recently and 2 turns after slaying Wurzzag, he was back with a full stack and 7 extra units.And Tictaqto himself is worthless and his birds have limited ammo.. so the entire battle, which I could win, is 30 minutes herding orks to make perfect blobs for stone throwing.And I just really don't wanna do that.
Been feeling like playing ogres, haven't since the launch of immortal empires. Is Golgfag worth it, any mandatory mods for ogres and what LL to start with?
>>572103631absolute slaughternormally hammer n anvil is a hassle because the AI is smart enough to keep 1-2 spearmen in reserve tho and if cav gets caught in spearmen it gets melted in 10s

Every deception requires a victim, and the consequences can range from wounded pride to a slow death>Never is this more true that at the Festivals of the Equinox, when captives are promised their freedom, if only they can slay a Wardancer in single combat. None succeed, of course, for the Devotees of Loec are peerless duellists. The true contest is not for the victim’s freedom, but to see how many wounds the Wardancer can inflict before his foe expires.

>>572109060im usin 3.7 imo it looks really nice, mostly because it keeps the vanilla sprites etc of stuffstuff like tsardoms, or stainless steel, or sship, EB or whatever similar mods, they all look really ugly UI wise, over-designed, the unit cards are too clunky, like they just look ugly as fuck, even if they're excellent modsvanilla beyond looks p much like vanilla, which looks nice, DaC is fine too even tho it slightly suffers from that ugly UI design too
>>572109102Volound is actual intellectual though who also does political analasys and economic theory

>>572109482
>>572106886The fantasy involves being a based Asrai obviously
>>572109562Meaningless buzzword. Volound can intelligently argue and refute the official narative for the russia-ukraine war, palestine-israel, he can argue for veganism, marxian socialism, old vs new total war and atheism well.
>>572109786so he's a zionist zigger vegan communist?

>>572109917He's not a zionist he argues against that. And he could best you in a debate on all those topics. None of you rightoids have any arguments vs veganism/marxism/atheism without insults and pretending you're above you intellectual betters, like in this case volound.
>>572103690usually you're an annoying gay retard but it does piss me off when I start anywhere near the Mountains of Mourn and then remember that I need to come up with a plan to deal with Tamurkhan and Grimgor by like turn 15
>>572109359Does it include that new miracle mod?
>>572110649dunno what that is but haven't noticed any prompts about "miracles"

>>572109786>>572110005> refute the official narative for palestine-israel, >He's pro palestineBut the official narative is literally: "poor Palestinian babies, evil Israelites, colonization bad, resistance fighters good."
>>572110807he's talking about m2ex
>>572110909ohthat's what i'm using and the whole reason im playing med 2 again, its more an engine patch, you install m2ex into ur med2 folder first, then it'll just work on any non-EOP mod, you put vanillabeyond in ur mods folder, make a shortcut to med2ex.exe and put this at the end of it --features.mod=mods/totalvanillab
>>572110940no it isn't unless you live in Indonesia or Iran lol
>>572111017makes sense, thanks
>>572110940>>572111072Most definitely is, the average western young normie thinks you're Satan if ur not le pro Palestine rn, its the latest virtue signal type cause thing, narrative is definitely on their side
>>572111257that's not how the word official works retard, the "official" stance of every western government and media outlet is that Israel is 110% in the right and the civilian casualties are unfortunate but necessary to save/avenge le hostages
stop talking about X this X thatfuck off with your ancient mods
>>572111501Lmao you think the narrative is contrary to the popular opinion? Let me guess the masses of awakened normie 18 year olds managed to disseminate a completely opposite view to that of the centers of power through the power of the democracy of TikTok? Naive idiot

>>572145878Go for it
>>572147926It's specifically to head off complaints from CA bruh, back-engineering the exe is already a gray area.
>>572048129Aislinn DLC, it gives you access to:>Aislinn LL + all his DLC units.>free Alith Anar LL.>free Imrik LL.>All base Helves units.technically you can also get "Queen & the Crone" DLC and get Alarielle + all her units + Alith + Imrik + base units + same thing but for Delves

Doesn't compare to Epidemius.
Anyone have any Warhammer Fantasy fanfic ideas?
>>572150857My fanfic ideas are this:MarienburgMonkey KingHalflingsNone of them will come true because they are my own fanfics.
>>572150857Reboot the squirefics
>>572150857a skaven, orc, dwarf, high elf, dark elf and human (EoM) have to work together to escape imprisonment from chaos dwarfs.
>>572150857I'm a champion of Slaanesh and I collect the prettiest lady of each race for display at my sex fortress. I don't fuck them so as to not besmirch their beauty, so I also kidnap the second prettiest ladies of each race so I have something to have sex with.
>>572150857NSFW ?
>>572153139Any works, but I only have experience writing porn.
>>572150857This >>572151130 but have a Bret squire twink shag Khalida and have a threesome with her and Neferata to get them to make peace
So Warhammer 40,000 and Medieval 3 have already been confirmed.What Total War game would you like to see afterwards?
>>572153951world war 1
>>572153951>>572154151however i know by release cycle the next one after med 3 will be fantasyso I genuinely have no ideamaybe lotr? but they'd never get the rights
>>572153237>>572150857Daily life of Goth mommy Elpseth and her not so bright ghostly household servants.Ghosts are horny for Elpseth but she is clearly not interested by them she is only interested in the giga-undead-killer Henry le Massif
>>572153951Honestly, not using TW40K formula/engine for another space opera setting would be downright retarded, so I fully expect some other space fantasy to existsAlso WW2. It's the most popular historical title. If they can do 40k, they can do it. And they will
>>572154338The Kingdom Come Deliverance guys were able to get the Lord of the Rings license.
>>572153951Unironically Star Wars, but one based off of actual Star Wars rather than Disney's shit.
>>572148106>>572148207goddamn, this is so retarded...I do have Rome on steam, never really played because performance was dogshit, any good mod reccomendation?
>>572151485>their stolen train-rig racing through the blasted expanse as dreadquakes hit around themhttps://youtu.be/t3yxnD9Lflw?t=210
>>572155470>never played>modsjust do a vanilla Julii run with m2ex first imo
>>572153951asoiaf with all the dynasty and intrigue mechanics they're cooking up for it. already seems like peak asoiaf kino
>>572155620>cooking up for it*cooking up for med 3. dynasties moving kingdoms and being able to take over kingdoms from the ruling dynasty + every character being able to serve as agents and generals seems perfect for asoiaf
>>572155620I just call it GOT
>>572155620>>572155815too low fantasy, I feel like the hype will die way down by then, its basically attila with very rare dragons and one fantasy faction
>>572155981if a knight of the seven kingdoms keeps being good (which is likely), the aegon movie is good (which is ehhhh) and if george actually fucking publishes the winds of winter i think the hype will still be there. outside of lotr i can't think of any other fantasy series that could sell a tw game paired to it. all the characters alone are perfect dlc fodder plus it has time periods that make for much better campaign dlcs than 3k. a dance of the dragons campaign would have dragons out the ass for people who care about that.
>>572156429but its still too low fantasy for the fantasy crowd.... 95% of the roster will be spearmanii and swordmanii regardless too fantasy for hist too hist for fantasy... LOTR in comparison is just right, magic is fading yes, but orcs, trolls, magic, elves, dwarves, the lot
I heard M2EX is using leaked M2 source code and it's also going to explode your PC, is this true?
>>572156602people watched and liked the show and people watch and like house of the dragon (for some reason), it is absolutely a popular setting for normies and fantasy fans. if asoiaf can't sell a game with its iconic characters i don't see how lotr can sell a game with it retreading the ground of warhammer fantasy by your logic
>>572156810idk and I don't care if its based on some leaked source code or not, sounds like schizobabble thoit might explode ur PC if u don't cap the FPS tho, or at least make ur GPU work way harder when it doesn't have to, I did it in nvidia control panel by adding m2ex.exe in program settings and there's a fps limit option, set that to my desktop Hz and my GPU no longer needs to work hard
>>572157190Maybe fearmongering got to me, thing seems too new. I'm guessing SEGA would have rape them already if it really was bad.
>>572157648I also thougth that it seems "too good to be true" but whether saga rapes them or not the current version is already good enough to supplant any other way to play med2
>>572157648give them a few months
>>572156810yes
>>572153951borrow one of Sega's IPs to make a Valkyria Chronicles Total war
>>572106880does it matter? isn't poland also christian?
>>572158159could unironically worki need to try playing that series tried once but couldn't get into it >>572158323yes its just funny idk why the AI does that that mod needs higher agent limits, there's agents all over the fuckin place

>>572158159Why is my waifu is not on the picture ?
>>572095560Depends on the scope of the battleSay you're doing a battle the Union loses. Depending on what action you're supposed to be doing, your officer says "hey boys its time to start taking losses" and so people opt to die. But if nobody's doing so, the officer might dictate losses on the next volley, who'll all fall. It's ultimately up to the orders and Federals wear Kevlar even when exchanging at 25mI mostly do 18th centuey with flintlocks, so we often play with musket issues (flints, misfires, etc) so we use that for our losses
