40koids are far more numerous and far more obnoxious about their "interests". At least the fantasyfags played the tabletop and therefore had a baseline understanding of what they were talking about (before the launch of tw wh1 that is). The average 40k "fan" gets his "lore" from ai youtube channels reading the fandom wiki. There's also an order of magnitude more of them. Enjoy the next decade of having to interact with these guys.

You will never be a real King of England. You have no claim, you have no blood ties to Edward the Confessor, you have no papal approval. You are a half-Danish nobleman twisted by witans and oathbreaking into a crude mockery of dynastic perfection.

All the “validation” you get is two-faced and half-hearted. Behind your back clergymen mock you. Your subjects are disgusted and ashamed of you, your “friends” laugh at your ghoulish claim to the throne behind closed doors.

Normans are utterly repulsed by you. Thousands of years of evolution have allowed normans to sniff out frauds with incredible efficiency. Even usurpers who “pass” look uncanny and unnatural to a norman. Your family tree is a dead giveaway. And even if you manage to get a drunk norman to swear fealty with you, he’ll turn tail and bolt the second he gets a whiff of you backing out of the sacred oath on holy relics of 1064.

You will never be king. You wrench out a fake smile every single morning and tell yourself it’s going to be ok, but deep inside you feel the norman fleet creeping up East Sussex like a weed, ready to crush you under the unbearable weight.

Eventually it’ll be too much to bear - you’ll march out, find a nice hill, try to hold the line, and get hacked to death by four norman knights. Edith the Fair will identify your mangled body, heartbroken but relieved that they no longer have to live with the unbearable shame and disappointment. They’ll bury you Abbey you founded with no royal honours, and every passerby for the rest of eternity will know a regular nobleman who was never king is buried there. Your body will decay and go back to the dust, and all that will remain of your legacy is a skeleton that is unmistakably not royal.

This is your fate. This is what you chose. There is no turning back.

All Edward had to do was name a successor and who knows what England would look like. You could argue England was already becoming Norman influenced as Edward had been raised in Normandy whilst Cnut ruled the land. The Archbishop of Canterbury was Norman. Westminster Abbey was built in the Frankish Romanesque style. Cnut was a good king actually, maybe we should have stayed Danish.
>>
>>579761179
That's the main issue. Edward should have made a definitive statement on who he wanted to be his heir.

>>579759083

That quest is a hell of a fight if you don't have your knights buffed through research/red-skills.
I think it's #2 in terms of Bretonnia final quest fights.
Repanse vs Vampire Coast > Brets vs Chaos > Brets vs Greenskins > Repanse vs Tomb Kings is how I rank them in difficulty.

Campaign Kairos is probably one of the hardest campaign starts in the game. In battle he’s not even close to as easy as Khorne, Khorne is just a charge to win faction. Slaanesh requires micro and the right use of their spell book. Nurgle is also relatively easy. Tzeentch I’d argue is one of the harder factions until you unlock your full spell book, his unit roster mostly sucks.

They're so annoying to fight manually you just auto resolve all of your battles against them

>>579761837
we know William went to England around the time Harold was kicked out of power, we know King Edward was childless and he wanted some kind of foreign backing because he didn't trust the English nobility
William's story at least it makes a degree of sense unlike mr. "yeah the guy who fucking hated me decided to do a 180 and give me the kingdom, no you can't ask him he's already dead; not even going to wait the traditional period English kings waited I'm crowning myself right now lmao"

how about it actually following the plot of the odyssey
>>
>>579767885
I mean to be fair I didn't think much about the casting. But that's just how modern films work, producers being penny pinching risk mitigators and what not. The race controversy was a bit of a nothingburger, the casting was just very "safe" and random. The actual film and the way they portrayed the story was fine. I liked the Siren Song scene and the way they handled Circe and the pigs.

I wouldn't go that far. I liked the movie. It was dream-like and pretty at times. Its lack of coherence fits the Odyssey well. No Nolan film I would ever consider "great" because the man can't write a straight story. He's fortunate the Odyessy fits his dreamy incoherent style of storytelling.

I felt the same way before watching it. My friends dragged me to see it. It was fine in the end. I liked most of it and Agamemnon's silly armor even grew on me by the end.
Fortunately I didn't follow any of the controversies. My main gripe was the trailer looked ass and I didn't like armor designs. Also half the people were totally overdressed for the climate. Thier costumes looked like something you'd wear in Skyrim rather than Greece.
Menelaos was great though.

I don't think Troy could have ever been a good game. In the Iliad the actual war is secondary to the characters and the rivalry between the Gods looking down from above. There is literally only one battle. The siege lasts 10 whole years. There is literally only one objective. At least Three Kingdoms takes place across a whole subcontinent over the space of 60 years with multiple factions.

>>579769198
Nehekharan Warriors were conjured out of smoke to fill a role.
Bladesingers were just a unit champion for Wardancers
Nasty Skulkers were a limited unit upgrade for goblins that got boosted to full unit
Grudgeraker Thunderers, The grudgeraker was originally a unique weapon for the Special Character Grimm Burloksson, that made it into Vermintide for Bardin, then got proliferated for a full unit in total war.
Ghorst was a blurb.

They were a Hittite client state, so probably scale armour, maybe some Archean gear mixed in, since they did a lot of trading.

Yeah I watched a documentary about the illegal antiquities trade. It's up there with drug trafficking in its scope and scale. After the Iraq War people just dug into the ground and sold Sumerian and Babylonian tablets for easy money. The worlds biggest antique auctioneers sometimes randomly sell items from Ancient China or the Mughal Empire or Ancient Hindu stuff that historians have never laid eyes on and could potentially rewrite history and they're just there to be sold to some random rich guy for his house furnishings. The Holy Grail could be in some guys house right now and nobody would ever know.

Henry 1st straight up nicked the throne and nobody gave a shit because he was a decent king.

I actually don't recognize most of the faction colors in this game for anything added past the first game. Do Zhao Ming's dudes wear yellow? Are Katarin's dudes dressed in blue or red? It's not that I haven't seen them, they all just blend together. Post a pic of a tomb guard and to my eyes it could be wearing the colors of Settra or Khatep, I never committed to memory which is which.

this reminds me
bros how long did you play on normal before going onto VH? I have 300 hours, and I'm still playing normal, because I feel like most campaigns still provide adequate challenge at the start even on normal, I know VH is kinda the "standard" tho, did u guys go normal to hard to VH?
>>
>>579778189
I dont change the ai stats to any higher than normal, because it isnt harder it just changes how you play and I dont find it that fun
as for campaign as high as you feel comfortable with, the AI is pretty dumb on campaign so It does need some help
>>
>>579778189
Play on a difficulty you find fun. I played on easy with a double movement range cheat for a long time. These days that bores me, so I play on very hard. Legendary is slightly harder, but there are a bunch of little inconveniences in battle realism mode, so it isn't fun.
>>
>>579775856
I imagine at some point Malekith himself would step in because you're actively getting in his way being a public nuisance instead of improving the Delf edgy alternative society through murder and *non-rat* scheming.
>>
>>579778189
I have something like 150h~ and play on hard atm. I just upped the difficulty as I got better. Whatever provides some resistance without feeling like I'm beating my head into a wall
>>
>>579778189
i moved on to VH after watching 1 legend stream and learning that people who play on VH just cheese to circumvent the increased challenge. desu I'm not even sure what VH does now that the battle stats thing is seperate. I know it makes enemies dodge spells but beyond that they don't appear any more intelligent
>>
>>579779019
so normal battle, hard or vh campaign?

>>579779240
>>579779351
I'm not the type to find fun from difficulty but a hard campaign is satisfying in these games, for example rome 2 DEI, on normal, first time playing the mod, and carthage was a serious struggle, one of the hardest campaigns I've played, but it felt damn good beating them, on wh3 it rly depends cause some factions on VH are probably easier than others on normal

but thing I don't want is the AI being too good at dodging spells etc, sounds liek it would be veryy annoying, so maybe battle normal is for me
>>
>>579778189
I did normal -> bunch of mp -> VH
VH AI leadership cheats are extremely cancerous but in normal there just isn't any challenge since it's so easy to bug out
>>
oh yeah how does it work if u do VH campaign and normal battle anyway, do u get the VH campaign win achievement if you win? I assume yeah
>>
>>579779574
I think VH allowing the enemy to dodge spells and artillery like a player also keeps it challenging. It's a bit annoying, since the ai does it TOO well, but it's a neat bonus
>>
Which is generally better, to raze my waaagh target or to occupy after 20 turns?
I chose occupy and while the extra units have been nice, can't help but think having the bonuses, instant units, and a second waaagh would be better
>>
>>579780642
if they made it so that it can't be occupied while the waaagh is still ongoing you should raze it, if a random fucking dumbass ai faction can just waltz over and take it and make you fail the waagh you should occupy instead
>>
