DoW4 melee combat looks much better than Total War one. TW40K melee looks as janky as TWW, with enemies barely able to hit each other, mostly swinging at air and having trouble to even position each other and move. DoW4 has "over 1000 sync kill permutations" and you can actually see those in gameplay they showed. Barely any exist in TWW

it doesn't even matter
DoW4 is singleplayer focused RTS so it will die, even if it's better than TW40K, because TW has replay value thanks to better campaign mechanics
Extracting DoW4 assets to improve TW40K is the best that can be done. Like sync kills and fighting animations

it's entirely possible
This is how modders discovered mesh import to begin with, halfway through TWW2 lifespan. They kept this knowledge secret on their modding discord and you had to beg them to import models for your mod. This is because they were afraid CA/GW will shut down modding if modders will have too much free will to create their own models

Warhammer fits the real time tactic genre better than the rts genre. Its not possible for DoW4 to play better.

singleplayer games don't "die" retardo, nobody is coming to take them away from your harddrive and even if you play it in 10 years while there are 3 other active players in the entire world you'll still get the full experience
>but muh DLCs muh updates muh roadmat

>>
>>575830586
That is utterly impressive.
Also tau, but only through process of elimination. The tau have their own shtick of cooperation that is really quite special among 40k factions, while cathay is really just another human faction with a bit of fantasy fluff on top. Though I do suppose the ethereals are comparable to the dragons and shugengans as externally introduced elites.

That depends on what you consider a virgin, as all of them are obviously far too large to have actual sex with a human woman.
But white scars and space wolves have a reputation for sexy time with women and their primarchs almost certainly partook in some manner.

>singleplayer games don't "die"
yes, they do. They die and are not played anymore. People will beat linear, cinematic campaign and then uninstall it, thus killing it.
This is in a stark contrast to actually replayable games like Paradox GSGs, Total Wars or 4x
>then you're not talking about a singleplayer game
Yes, I am. Game potential is cut short if it dies, it will never reach it's true quality and perfect form
Back then devs had no way to properly support their game after release, fortunately now they can, which is objectively better that way.
And both DoW and Total War are actually good examples of that. Instead of expanding DoW1, they killed it and were forced to waste time, money and effort reinventing wheel, making Marines, Orks and Eldar again for a sequel, which in turn never reached it's true potential either
Same with Total War. Medieval 2 was killed too fast. It's bugs never fixed. Only got one garbage dlc which added small, irrelevant campaigns, instead of fleshing out main campaign. What a shame

they change path.
craftworlder society is mega autistic, where all eldar are expected to adhere their personality to the archetypical "path" that they have chosen. they do this because it's their way of enforcing moral/emotional discipline and avoiding the predations of the warp: they are, in effect, method acting/larping at all times. the combat ones are well known (howling banshee, dire avenger, etc), but there are plenty of paths that are civilian (bonesinger) as well as a bunch that contribute to war but are not normally military (outcast, farseer). eldar are expected to change their path many times in their life. those that don't (referred to as exarch for the aspect warrior paths, the little sergeant dudes that lead them) get lost on the path and can never step off of it. this is viewed as a bad thing among craftworlders, since it's like your friend forgot who they were.

>>575862175
Isn't it kinda iffy in general how humans among the tau work? There are humans worlds in their empire that are mostly self-ruled, with probably a decent amount of theoretical freedom (but economic necessities). How do humans among tau work? Hell, how do tau work? Do they all get assigned jobs based on their tests and evaluations or something, or can they choose themselves?
There's a lot of lore about tau accomodating the cultural quirks of their client races, so a humans personal wishes are probably somewhat accepted. Like, you want to be a soldier even though they think you'd be a better engineer, they will nudge you towards being an engineer but not all out forbid you from being a soldier. A tau on the other hand would probably not reject the judgement of their betters, so they do what they're told. (And earth caste could never become a soldier anyway.)

They specifically forbid that in cases of jobs. If the greater good determines something is for the best, then it is your job to internalize that this is for the best.
This is why it is illegal to mourn those disappeared for the Greater Good, because the Greater Good is that the person never existed.

It is true we're missing a lot of lore among the Tau, but honestly that's probably for the best, given what little we do know about them says it would be very much like the Uglies, you're either blissfully unaware, hunted down, or one of the elite who get to make the decisions.

Tau have separate races segregated into castes to preserve their racial qualities. They are born into them are miscegenation is outlawed
Planet has an option to peacefully embrace T'au'va or Fire Caste will make sure it will embrace it. In either case local population is resettled, taken for reeducation and indoctrination and spread around to they can't organize resistance and Tau are settled in
Sometimes Ethereals will ask other Castes for an advice calling Elemental Council. In that case Fire, Water, Earth and Air caste each have a vote. Outsiders to Tau so Humans, Kroot, Vespid, Galg, Morralian, Formosian, Nicassar, Hrenian etc all share one vote.

Funnily enough, marines are more OP lore-wise than custodes if you by feats.
Decades of marinewank have turned them into these one man armies, which kinda stole the thunder out of custodes, how do you make an unstoppable force even more unstoppable? Its fucking impossible.

you'll need probably 2, maybe 3 armies to garrison the mountain provinces bordering athel loren

>>575876476
i have little hopes of it happening in 40k because it wouldn't be very on-brand, but i do sorely wish that CA would touch up the AI's acceptance of peace and get them to recognize the value of continuing wars versus ending them and stalemate situations. it's always annoying to get into a situation where you need to declare war with a prickly faction for short-term goals and they can't really kill you, but they refuse to accept peace for 70+ turns because you can't meaningfully end them either without setting yourself crazy far back in the midgame
>>
>>575878430
just remembered there are fleet and ship based factions with no homeworlds so we can still expect the ai to just roam as a horde for your unprotected settlements and then just fleeing whenever you try to engage them

Fun Fact: Creative Assembly was initially a porting company and ported nearly 15 games from the Amiga system to MS-DOS basically porting games from the Commodore computer systems to Windows, over half of which were EA Sports games, after which they eventually released their debut first-party game, Shogun: Total War.
That's right, despite creating Total War in 2000, Creative Assembly has actually existed as a corporate entity since 1987 and began operating in the games industry in 1989. Does their longevity not fill you with pride anon?

>bretonnia 100% needs a touch-up but i dunno what direction they should take their campaign mechanics
Erranty armies (all factions need them)

Carcassonne - needs a way to improve prophetesses and damsels. Maybe they get special bound spells too.
Could get access to a pool of instantly recruitable battle pilgrims.
Every army could get access to the fey paths (the underway, basically)
https://warhammerfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Fey_Paths
>The Fey Paths of the Lady of the Lake allow both her Damsels and their paramours to travel throughout Bretonnia, crossing hundreds of miles in just the blink of an eye.

Chevaliers de Lyonesse - Every lord in this faction gives flaming attacks to the whole army when fighting undead that Repanse has for hers. Maybe this should apply when vs. chaos factions too, dunno.
Could also give buffs to grail reliquaes, but might be better fit for Carcassone instead, with their battle pilgrims.
Would be cool to have a relic-hunting theme.
>Capture X location/defeat Y army to get Z relic that grants +1 melee defence to all units with a shield
That kind of thing. Could be traded to other Brets for increasing relations and they gain the buffs instead. Maybe they could have relics from other races that could be traded away to give diplomatic buffs with those races.

Couronne - Something like Avelorn has; Bretonnia has to be in the hands of Bretonnian factions or else there's problems with growth, public order etc. Maybe some kind of round table thing like the elector counts stuff for Empire. Maybe a mix of these 2 things.
Couronne should definitely be able to resurrect destroyed order factions. Maybe you could get a little bit of money each turn from these factions, to represent their gratitude for being liberated or something.
Would be cool to set up (Bretonnian) vassals in certain shittier locations, like Norsca, Naggaroth, Chaos wastes etc.

>>575924684
I think the idea was that he didn't want a bunch of slave rebels running around promoting their ideals because half the imperium was made of slave labor worlds, so he instead tries to buckbreak angron as hard as possible so he could have his pawn with none of the freedom warrior shit.
And he was somewhat successful initially but the emperor just didn't consider that Angron could end up finding a different daddy to order him around

Yeah, sort of. The Chaos Dwarfs made the Black Orcs as a race of stronger and smarter orcs so that they would be better slaves, but surprise to no one they rebelled and almost wiped them out. I don't remember if Grimgor is a first generation BlOrc or if he was born later but in the End Times he leads a great WAAGH of Greenskins and Ogres that krump Cathay and the Chaos Dwarfs. One of the End Times writers actually wrote a more detailed end for the Chorfs outside the ET books but I think GW eventually told him to stop expanding on ET.

The whole cathay thing is retconned now but if they really made Grimgor himself and he destroyed them.. that would be awesome. It's a classic trope but I love that trope. The power hungry ones make something even more powerful and it destroys them.

I don't think he can possibly be. The first generation happened 2000+ years ago, and Grimgor's history is that he came out of the dark lands and within months he had already taken a bunch of tribes in the World's Edge Mountains and was already duking it out with characters like Ungrim or Katarin. The only way to assume Grimgor was in the original black orc rebellion would be to assume right after leaving he got frozen in ice for 2000 years.

fimir are kinda outworldly, they have nothing to do with the world of men, yet they wanna rape us just 4laughs

I kinda find the Fimir tragic. They're a species hated by everything, abandoned by their patron god, shunned by all other faiths, condemned to a slow and certain extinction as a new toy is paraded in their stead. They were set up for evil by the nature of their very biology (rape of outsiders is necessary for reproduction), and they have the presence of mind to know that evil doesn't even want them. They're a dead people.

In the best of cases, you still can't go a single day without learning which nut he was scratching today while beating the same early game basic battle every single player has already beat before, but this time with a deluge of fanart to plaster all over every social network.

Grimgor

Gorbad at least has a history of being a world beater and Greenskins unifier. Could have been made significantly more interesting but it’s still something. Maybe confederation opportunities show up with faction leaders challenging him directly for control of Waagh and he can teleport and krump em to lead the biggest Waagh. Who knows.

Gorfang uses a sword and shield and his melee shtick is that he's tanky as hell. Basically the Gor-rok of orcs.

Alright you have been asked to provide a model as a base for the “champions of Tzeentch” unit that will go head to head with Putrid Blightkings, Wrathmongers, and Champions of Tzeentch. Pick your favorite model and provide a general unit overview. I like big hand birb man, but Tzeentch infantry with flamer arms would make for a good hybrid unit as well.

The actual answer is that dwarfs are very practical and only use weapons that can also serve as tools. Spears can't chop wood or hammer metal.

Dwarfs have plenty of ranged options to do the heavylifting on the killing front. The polearms would just put an impassable wall between the ranged units, and the enemy. Also you're telling me that dwarf couldn't carry that axe as a secondary weapon for if the polearm was broken, or otherwise made the worse option?

Me question why Men at Arms matter for Bretonnia Peasant Economy given in lore their peacetime duties are patrols and guarding, not farming. Also because Bret lords recruit from them yearly midsummer all the time even if they don't send them to war.
>>
>>575991467
The easy answer is that, when CA was making Bretonnia, they didn't want to have to go granular enough to have a unit count as a peasant while also carrying special exemption from the peasant economy. We have only started to see that level of granularity once Chaos Dwarfs dropped and they added Contempt as a third layer to the Expendable vs Normal situation.
Also, it can be argued that recruiting troops into an army also doubles as patrolling. After all, it's not like Bretonnia has standing armies like at all, but we still can recruit and maintain armies without going to war.
>>
Really the problem is GW/CA misunderstood feudalism and assumed it was a black and white divide between the nobility and non-nobility. "Either you are a noble or you are a peasant".
They obviously don't want to put something that complicated into a game as simple as Warhammer, also you could just spam yeoman since there is no population mechanic.

>Already pretty weak compared to history mechanically
>Every rework to fix core issues came at the price of extreme powercreep and streamlining
>Most buildings stopped mattering, you can usually cram all the buildings into one province without much thought
>DLC compounding the problem with one side being so absurdly favored that they had to double/triple down on reworks for other factions to bring them up to par (Thanks, skaven)
>Autoresolve getting worse and worse every single game to appease the babies who cried when a unit got randomly wiped out
>Overall campaign progression getting faster and faster causing most things to be obsolete (Building tall is rarely possible, doomstacking encouraged to match the AI's speed, the above autoresolve changes, etc)
>DLC mini-campaigns/Vortex/Realm of Chaos being unfun in general
>No heroes/agents as far as I can see so there's even less management on the map
>The AI continuing to be a clusterfuck in both battle and campaign. If you watched the recent gameplay video you can already see battle Ai doesn't seem that much different from what we have with the AI charging lords/super units in with no thought
I'm curious to see how it'll all play out with a more randomized/procedurally generated campaign map but I have a bad feeling about it
At the very least, the game seems to be designed with overpowered bullshit in mind from the start so maybe it'll somehow work out

They will spread out major factions with subfaction dlcs just like TWW, I don't see why would they change it. It works for dripfeeding perfectly fine
CSM will be first/second then few subfactions for Eldar, Orks, IG and Marines, then Necrons/Nids, subfactions again, Nids/Necrons and again this same and so on

Only caveat, I think they will focus on "evil" major factions first (so CSM, Nids and Necrons) before making "good" ones like more Imperials or Tau and Votann because there are 3 "good" guys in base game already

Among other things, I think Bretonnia needs a way to get very powerful items for their characters. Like the High Elves or Twins.
Powerful swords, armors and trinkets. They could be rewards for doing quests and crusades and stuff.

Total War: AoS would've been interesting.

A pseudo sequel to WH3, a natural fantasy follow up

You can do the whole "CA gave AoS life like they did Fantasy!" angle too if it hits, but at the same time CA probably would've been under fire if the game wasn't a sure hit on day 1

The factions are more fun too, compared to 40yawn

I obviously understand why they're doing 40k. but AoS would've been interesting nonetheless... Maybe in 10 years

Rogue as a genre is inspired by the game with the same name, in which dying resets you back to square one. There is a distinction between "Roguelike" and "Roguelite" in that Roguelikes reset you when you die/lose and you have to start again whereas Roguelites also reset you however they also have metaprogression elements where you earn resources in a run that allow you to unlock permanent buffs in following runs.

A true roguelike Total War already exists as technically a Total War campaign is pure Roguelike, high variance and rng and you have to start from the beginning with nothing whether you win or lose with no metaprogression elements but Tabletop Tavern is a good example of what a Roguelite Total War would look like albeit lower budget and overall meh. It wouldn't surprise me if TW40k has campaign modifiers in their rumored Helldivers 2 Galactic War expy gamemode but a true roguelite gamemode is never ever as Total War battles are only fun when given context by the campaign which is why MP is beyond niche despite Total War being a member of the big three of grand strategy(Total War, Paradox, Civ).

If the lethality of the battle we've seen makes it to the end game I think that we won't be managing to win many battles without atleast losing a unit. So if CA play their cards right we will be obligated to replenish attrition losses over time with cheaper units.

The secret is that remakes aren't being made because they're what the CONSOOMER wants. They're being remade because remakes objectively cost less money and take less time to produce than new games.

The industry is in a cash crunch and everything has been flopping so they pivoted to only releasing the absolute cheapest, lowest-risk options. The people making these business decisions literally do not care if the product flops or not--the last dozen things they picked out flopped. It just makes financial sense to spend less money when you are short on money and making straightforwardly low-risk and sensible financial decisions during a crisis makes your stocks go up even if the actual product still ends up flopping.

Nope. Just like that embarrassing He-Man flop, these remakes are by and large completely out of touch with consumer demand and don't really reflect any trend on consumer interest or engagement. And this is reflected in their sales, none of these remakes sell as well or make as much money as a successful triple-A title does. But they don't have to. Because they're cheaper to make, they need fewer sales to break even.

The second trick is that the development of these remakes is largely outsourced to very cheap, very low-skill 3rd party studios--Basically UE5 sweatshops. Taking simple projects and outsourcing them allows the publisher to lay off huge swathes of its own inhouse development staff to further trim costs. In fact in most cases the layoffs come first, because they need to trim massive amounts of payroll to avoid bankruptcy, and only after the layoffs do they realize that they don't really have enough talent left to realistically make another triple-A title without hiring more staff that they can't afford.

There's a whole shadow industry in gaming, film and tv dedicated to milking old IPs by outsourcing to lowest-bidder 3rd parties. Normally this trash is just background radiation, but it's standing out more to you now because nobody can afford to make anything expensive right now so this 3rd tier slop ends up being the biggest release of the month.

In fact GW really, really, REALLY likes mentioning 1st edition. They constantly make nods to it and create minis based on their first versions or even art from RT. Screamer Killer Carnifex or Tallerian being the most obvious recent examples. But also Arbites or Navy Breachers. Or beakies. Primaris Inceptors are based on RT art. It happens all the time, constantly and without end.
In fact Slanni are the obvious next choice for Xeno faction. GW keeps making 1 or 2 new factions and subfaction every edition. Now we are getting Exodites and DarkAdmech/Lost and the Damned. Slanni are quite possible

Squats were never retconned away and Votann are in line with old lore. Tyranids eating Squats aligned with Imperium remains canon and was even referenced on Votann introduction with random Inquisitor being confused how they still exists if they were eaten, his data simply being incorrect. Old version already mention Squats having ancestor worship and Votann simply gave name as an Ancestor Core. Just like old Squats, which never went away, were independent remnant of DAoT with STCs. Those Imperial aligned Squats still survived somewhere, example being Necromunda. An extremely common and reasonable fan theory about Demiurg being Squats was simply canonized to further improve how well they fit into the lore

>What is hypervisor
>>
>>576102897
doubt, maybe he cracks 40k on day one tho
>>
>>576104109
I mean if he is finding steam cumbersome hypervisor would far worse considering he essentially would have to restart his PC before and after playing it.

just saw nolan's odyssey and it was a bretty good movie, kinda wanna play troy now, but it feels so hard to justify buying that when I already have pharaoh dynasties...
>>
Total War: Troy is a trading simulator.
>>
>>576106036
does it have the exact same system as pharaoh? brilliant system desu, gives diplomacy a real purpose because you literally cannot function without those trade deals, every time your faction is gonna have a surplus of one thing and a deficit in another one, makes u think what kinda trade deals u wanna do and with who, unheard of in a TW game
>>
>>576085367
i swear to god if that shit is true the system warring BETTER not be procedurally generated trash
that dogshit is literally the entire reason why i was incapable of enjoying AoW Planetfall or AoW4. GIVE ME PREDEFINED MAPS WITH INTELLIGENTLY PLACED STRATEGIC LOCATIONS AND TERRAIN THAT INFORM THE FLOW OF STRATEGY MAP LEVEL GAMEPLAY
>>
>>576106903
you'll get that in the armageddon campaign or other such campaigns they release, but the equivalent to IE will be procedually generated campaigns prob
>>
Roguelike total war when
>>
does the old world mod still work well? empire campaign but massively expanded sounds like great fun but never played it

>7 months and still waiting for a single content release
Will it be worth the weight?
>>
>>576107851
give it a shot then? the mod is fine and update if that's what your asking

there's a few things you can do to tweak the end turn waiting if it's a tad too long (because of how much factions are on the map)
>>
>>576110009
Sir, your Bhashiva Character Pack?
>>
>>576110108
I said content, not jeet AI sloppa
>>
>>576110009
it will be worth it once it's finished because they can focus more on alien isolation 2
>>
>>576110009
I just wish they'd just explain everything already
Thanquol already leaked, there's still an unknown number of units left to reveal and Nef/vamp rework isn't even a part of the DLC so there's still a lot we need to see
>>
>>576110259
The most overrated game CA has produced getting a sequel is so funny to me. Can't wait for people to get hit with the rose tinted reality check when they play the new one and realise it wasn't anything special (which is why it flopped in sales)
