>>579750107200It's why everyone hates playing Tzeentch
>>579746251Monkeys pawFags were asking for fantasy to come back and it did. Except it's all gay and gender fluid now. Thank God everyone interesting from the original setting is either dead or hasn't been born yet.
Thanquol soon, friends!

Just playing some good old shogun 2

>>579750909FakeS2 is way more colorful than that. This looks more like if Shogun 2 came out after Attila.
>>579750557slaaneesh just requires micro thats not iq Kairos' campaign actually requires you to plan ahead or you get fucked from all sides
>>579750276Is that supposed to be Zhao or some chorf?
>>579750987Last Days is top quality. I'm amazed that's still being updated.
>>579750909why don't they make this for bannerlord? I cba to play this unc ass cs 1.6 graphics game the campaign map is so ugly
>>579750909>Obama castlewtf
>>579751135kek I also couldn't tell in the thumbnail
>>579751153They have. It totally blows out the water everything Gekokujo was. It's called Shokuho. Bannerlord has been so slow to get good mods.
>>579751135A chorf! Just look at the tusks, the horns!
>>579751557>Shokuhocool! thanks for the heads up, looks interestingdesu i still haven't learned how to play those games, i get as far as having 100 dudes in my party or so but then idk how to get regular income or make my own kingdom, tried warband ages ago and bannerlord pre release, is bannerlord finally out of early access and with a tutorial that explains this?

I demand Three Kingdoms reactions/gifs/memes and I demand them NOW.
>>579751709huh there's even a WH fantasy mod, what do ya know
>Wanna play around with Gorbad's mechanics>The thought of suffering through his early game makes me long for the feeling of rope around my neckUnironically, do I just cheat past the first 25 turns with a dev console mod or something?Alternatively, should I use a mod to transplant Gorbad to like, Lustria or something?

>>57975396440koids 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.

>>579754304lmao
>>579754703this, I got my lore from Vermintide 1https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4oMj2enrBw
If Thrones of Britannia was set in 1066 rather than the 800s or whatever with all these Kings who only have maybe one sentence of mention in the Anglo Saxon Chronicle it would have been ok.
>>579754919I got my lore from Dark Omen and first edition RPG. Was really confused why orcs don't wear bright red & checkered robes in Warhammer 1.Turns out WHFB changed art directions in that time.
>>579755374they still do that with orcs in 40k
>>579755085VGGGGHHHH imagine saving Britain from those dirty fucking n*rmanfags and the filthy n*rwegians... what could have BEEN!
i got my lore from TWW1 and this thread
>>579754557>fantasyfags played the tabletoplmao do tableslop faggots really believe this?
>>579755994No I would 100% main the Normans. They were my ancestors after all.
>>579754557Do goyim really?
>>579754557okay gramps
>>579756364This. French Vikings are strong and handsome. If I was a Saxon earl I'd gladly give my daughter to them.
>>579757443they had funny haircuts
>>579750263You need a giga brain to play Changeling because your schemes and forms are on a timer
>>579755994>save Britain from Normans>pros: English language is just funny German rather than a Germano-Franco-Latin abomination>cons: English people lose out on the single stock of handsome genes
>>579754919Goddamn, Vermintide's music is phenomenal. Anyway, Fantasy deserves it's own big-ish budget RPG
>>579757746male pattern baldness should be like this
>>579755994William was objectively the rightful king of England, God said so.
>>579758132I mean he received a banner personally from the Pope. I suppose in the early middle ages the Papacy wasn't as powerful as people think it was but still.
>>579757746The damsels loved it.
wtf first time i've seen this mission
>>579758419Never trust a furry
>>579758132>>579758267William won by pure chance and that was after Harald BTFO'd the VIKANGZ and had to force march his army all the way to Hastings.n*rman sissies had to use underhanded tactics like pretending to flee because they couldn't break the Anglo lines otherwise
>>579752971Not a meme. I just want to post the cute bandit girl.
>>579758802TCA had no problem designing attractive female chars for 3k wonder why :))
>>579758660>falling for the oldest trick in the book
>have to fight Archaon to finish my Carcassonne campaign (in TWW2)The Fay Enchantress' army is 7 battle pilgrims, 2 grail reliquaes, 4 grail knights and 4 grail guardians.All units have at least 1 gold chevron.Oh, and 2 paladins.I'm scared bros. How brutally will I get mogged by Archaon?
>>579758949The male gaze of the Chinese audience forced them to.
>>579746251Wew boy, reading about that kinda pissed me off.>>579745740What if The Lady appears as what (you) would find most beautiful, and Alberic has caught yellow fever?
>>579759083Is it a quest battle or do you have to kick his ass on the campaign map?>>579752971Who Cao Cao here?
>>579759083If you have campaign buffs, grail knights and guardians should slap chaos knights, especially with healing. Just chalice of potions the blobs of warriors/chosen in the infantry moshpits.
>>579758660You 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.
In another world there is a Total War ASOIAF game with expansions for the Blackfyre Rebellions and the Dance of Dragons. But no. Instead we got a grand strategy game from a company I've never heard of which I can't tell if it will be fun or not.
>>579753005Beastmen are (supposedly) the next playable faction coming up in that mod
>>579760435what's the go to "real world" mod in bannerlord with a europe map? most complete one, dgaf for time period, I'd prob try to learn the game without mods first but just curious
>>579760124Harold's claim was just as legitimate as William's.
>>579759820>Is it a quest battle or do you have to kick his ass on the campaign map?A quest battle to end the campaign.I think the other option was to fight the Greenskins, but I've done that ending before with Louen, I believe.Pretty sure Archaon has at least 1 hellcannon in his army too.
>>579760664>remember King Edward the guy who hated absolutely despised me his entire life for killing his brother and tried to get rid of me with an internal coup, forcing me to retake power with an invasion fleet? yeah on his deathbed he totally changed his mind about me and said I should be king after him trust me bros :^)seems legit
>>579761042About as legitimate as Williams 'Oh bro in 1051 he promised me I would be his heir!'.
>>579760664All 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.
>>579761179That's the main issue. Edward should have made a definitive statement on who he wanted to be his heir.
>>579759083>>579760770That 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.
Are we back? Did histbros win?
>>579761157>promising the throne to your nephew from the country you grew up in is the same as promising the throne to the guy who murdered your brotheryeah, right
is skaven really one of the least played factions
>>579761617yes, no one likes skaven besides ratfags
>>579750107just use the cult building in bretonnia to escape oxy
>>579761601>no fucking written documents>nothing but William just saying it happenedkek
>>579761617Without unit caps they're just a missile faction. It's when you enforce caps that they have kino death star gameplay.
>>579753005It's also very buggy
>>579753583Daily motion
>>579761925everything m&b is inherently jank kek
>>579761617They're really weak so no one plays them.
>>579750557Campaign 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.
>>579761617It's an EVP faction.They're so annoying to fight manually you just auto resolve all of your battles against them
>>579761837we 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 nobilityWilliam'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"
>>579761942Thank you.
>>579762245nigga, HAROLD was a teenager when Edward's brother got murderedYou are confusing him with his father
which factions will help me stave off dementia by activating my brain the most?
>>579762231Finally freeing up a cav unit to be able to attack their ranged units, but then the ranged units scattering to the four winds while my cav chase them will never not be infuriating.
>>579762957TZEENTCHwatch the pretty colors fly
>>579762473nigger HAROLD was around 30 when his family was kicked out of power, he was exiled too along with his father and brothersYou are pretending like Edward didn't blame the entire family for Alfred's murder
>>579763282the Godwins got exiled because Godwin refused to obey the Kingthen they came back with an army and Edward folded like a bitch and restored all their titles
>>579750557>>579762196Kairos's campaign does indeed suck early on. Dealing with the skink bastard and his dinos early on is a pain.
you know the godwins married into the kievan rus?
>>579763838w-who ?
>>579763838Goes deeper than thathttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_England_(medieval)
I wonder, is Slaanesh stuff looking horrid and not really attractive whatsoever actually the commentary on going to extremes making a monster out of people and such, or is it just GW not wanting to make sexy things?
>>579763487big mistake, letting them live
>>579763997BothThey'll mention some attractive sexy stuff in the fluff but it's either a setup for the really depraved shit or someone who hasn't been fully corrupted yet
>>579764084he couldn't do shit, and he knew it lmao
>>579763990Stupid useless trivia like this interests me greatly. Even if this was almost certainly not real.

>>579750276I guess it's vaguely relevant to Pharaoh.Drawn in protest against my brother dragging me to see Nolan's Odyssey.
>>579767205I liked it.
>>579767430Unless you're one of those people who just hates all modern young actors (which, ya know, fair) there isn't really a reason to dislike it
>>579767885how about it actually following the plot of the odyssey
>>579767885I 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.
>>579768198it was normie kino. didnt need to be 1:1
>>579768623>normie kinooxymoron
>>579768826endgame is normieknio
>>579767205trailer made it look like a shoddy low budget fantasy flick and finding out they made Achilles a tranny didn't help
>>579767430Perfectly fine.Like it says, my hang ups are mostly about the visuals. It's about as subjective as it gets.
>>579767430it was a great movie, its just getting hate from retarded culture warriors online because muh dei or woke or whatever while nolan just baited their tard asses with the actors for free publicity, and it worked, 1.5 billion+ grossed, nolan does it again as usual, that guy has no bad movies
>>579768962achilles isnt in the movie
Were there any mentions of Banshees getting a skill update?
What's the most tenuous bit of lore or tiny crumb of info that has been used as justification to create a new unit?
Faction for this feel?
>>579768945no, its slop
>>579769056I 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.
>>579769236masque
>>579769236Puppets of Misrule
>>579767205I 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.>>579768962>Achilles a tranny didn't helpDude, Achilles isn't even in the movie.
take your time. assess.
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.
>>579769997Troy is a good game with mythos mode. CA utterly botched the launch with the truth behind the myth nonsense.
>>579765950Troons have adopted the Fag thing of policing heterosexuality as "revenge" for heteros not being questioned on their "preferences."
>>579770169temu warhammer
>>579770169What are the main differences besides unit selection, anyways?
>>579770227>Policing heterosexuality >OP invoked Slaanesh
>>579770424@grok argue with this nonwhite for me so I don't have to deal with bad faith retards
>>579765950There are settings that let you switch characters, so you can replace homos with foids
Do we even know what the Trojans wore in battle.
>>579769198Nehekharan Warriors were conjured out of smoke to fill a role.Bladesingers were just a unit champion for WardancersNasty Skulkers were a limited unit upgrade for goblins that got boosted to full unitGrudgeraker 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.
>>579770609I was just taking a light jab. I know GW are run by retarded prudes. I made a long rant post about it a few threads ago.
>>579770917nothing but condoms
>>579771074I just realised the reason its called that is because of the walls of troy.Or is it the trojan horse? Now that I think of it, neither of those things sounds like a good way to describe a condom.
>>579770917They were a Hittite client state, so probably scale armour, maybe some Archean gear mixed in, since they did a lot of trading.
>>579771198The walls did their job perfectly fine, hence the need for guile.
ULTHUAN'S ENEMIES SHALL BE DROWNED
>>579771542in cum :3
>>579771259>Hittite armourThis shit looks way better than the bronze dustbins the Mycenaean Greeks wore.
>>579771542Dude, can you turn it down a bit.We're on a date here.
>>579770917Anything between Mycenaean and Hittite gear probably.>>579771259The Hittite letters also mention their leader whose name was Alexander. That's a Greek name so lots of Achaean influence for sure.
You know... I wonder what a Dark Elf court system would be like. Do you think they have a jury of their peers?
>>579771638How dare you insult glorious Mycenaean armor.
>>579771638Big talk for someone in Labrys range.
cathay actually made me like the chinese armors wich they had these in three kingdoms
>>579770917Unfortunately the guy who discovered Troy made a slight error. The settlement layer he thought was Homeric Troy is about 1000 years older. The layer containing actual Homeric Troy mostly got blown up by dynamite trying to get to the older settlement.
>>579766909Rats have animal genes (lower myostatin) and also warpstone steroids/cocaine
>>579773160oopsie
>>579773160Victorian archaeologists played Skyrim tomb fetch quests in real life except with dynamite. There was a time you could just go to an ancient land, blow stuff up, grab some golden trinkets and leave without anyone caring.
>>579772554yeah troops are often dripped outespecially the southlands with their white capes (don't have a pic of them and I lost allmy old screenshts n webms...)
>>579774135n'wah you can literally still do that if you want to, these places are in arab shitholes, i have an iraqi friend that told and showed me there's just some giga ancient sumerian tablets with cuneiform writing on em just rotting in the desert sun lol, probably worth a lot if you take em home, very illegal too probably, but if u bribe the guards enough... it's prob done regularly western archeologists etc are too pussy to go due to isis and what not
>>579771851>CourtIt's probably just a political debate between people with power but not too much power
>>579774282PÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖ
>>579774465Yeah 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.

>>579775213Probably for the best. Archeology and history have already done enough damage to humanity. Some things should remain forgotten.
>>579774783Imagine having a trial by combat system but the accused is someone like Tamurkhan.Can they just commit unlimited crimes so long as they keep on winning the legal duels?
>>579760124Henry 1st straight up nicked the throne and nobody gave a shit because he was a decent king. Royalty is a made up system of family-run warlords anyway, and the only thing that matters is the ability to appease the other ruling elite, and to have the strength to fuck people up if they do what you do not want them to do.
>>579775385I havent tried it myself yet but from the comments it sounds like the whole wall collapses instead of segmentsNeeds a middle ground where a third/half the wall collapses instead of the whole thing at once
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.
I hope some more baller voicelines are added to the VC's, because they've got the best ones>Rise! RISE! AHAHAHAHA!>Be still, my beating heart!>Life is a PHASE!>It is NIGHT!

>>579776386KILL THEMRAISE THEM
>>579776386WHERE IS KRELL!I still prefer khorne warriors and Wulfrik's voicelines, they really screamed at the mic.
>>579776428sandboxfags and nolimitsfags did this
>>579776254Zhao‘s dudes wear grey I think and Katarina‘s wear blue.Alarielle is also easy. She’s the only elf who wears green.
>>579776428my nigga Alberto
>>579776386Supposedly they added 5 hours of voicework. I assume most of it was the new characters and the shitty woman advisor narrating 100 start positions but hopefully more of the in house lords like Kemmler got lines
>>579776428this reminds mebros 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?
>>579778189I 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 funas for campaign as high as you feel comfortable with, the AI is pretty dumb on campaign so It does need some help
>>579778189Play 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.
>>579775856I 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.
>>579778189I 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
>>579778189i 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
>>579779019so normal battle, hard or vh campaign?>>579779240>>579779351I'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 normalbut 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
>>579778189I did normal -> bunch of mp -> VHVH 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
>>579779574I 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
>>579780642if 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
Odds of Settra's campaign not being fucked up by Nagash starting in the neighboring settlement?
>>579781128trust in the power of the charge bonus, young padawan
>>579781128>instead of Settra vs Nagash being a climactic confrontation it's a turn 2 scuffle between shitstacksIt's fugged
>>579781128Settra's start is pretty easy, Skarbrand ain't shit (unironically) and you can pretty much ignore him for a while. Yeah sandwiched between like 5 lords is terrible but it could be worse.
The Toad Dragon is a tier 5 monster.That must mean that Glottkin is a tier 6 monster.
>>579776386If they had gotten the old VAs in to record new voice lines I imagine it'd have been announced when they talked about all the additional audio that's been recorded for Karl and Archaon.
>>579781695MPfags better not whinge and get him nerfed
>>579781550They want you to turn on the endtimes so that Nagash gets a runback.
Will your Nagash lead from the front or command from the rear?
Wood-Elves where my very first VH campaign victory back in WH1, But I haven't played them since. Who of their LL currently has the best campaign?
>>579782482I will autoresolve everything :3
The real truthnuke of Total War: Warhammer is that being a large monstrous entity is actually a massive weakness.
>>579782720They're all pretty good, only drycha is kinda ass.
>>579783090Drycha is mega op and she gets Coeddil. Do not libel her.
so with no stat bonus, the only diff between normal, hard or VH combat AI is that it dodges spells... ? no more flanking, less? (it tries to flank on normal too tho)
I fucking love this grey seer!>underway stance into their territory>get surrounded and attacked by 4 stacks of elite Helfs including several dragons>lose but not before inflicting horrific casualties>retreat into the badlands>Helfs attack again>last stand time>somehow win>Helfs attack again>another heroic victoryAlso huge credit to my Eshin sorcerer who kept sitting at the side of the battle in concealment throwing fire balls and shurikens at their lords and monsters
>>579783352so apparently it also dodges artillery on VH that's not very fun for me so i dont think ill do tha,t will prob stick to normal battles and try hard campaign for a changelast thing, the thing that makes autoresolve harder is campaign difficulty right?? right now im using a mod for harder AR evne on normal because its just too retarded n braindead ez otherwise
>>579783418you need to give him a custom name now.
>>579782947say that to a max level skarbrand or tamurkhan
Why doesn't Vlad have offices like Wood Elves? He should totally have that.
>>579783839>WH3 is unusual in that the battle difficulty affects the autoresolve (for most other TW, I think it is campaign difficulty that affects it)I read this on reddit and wondering if its trueseems pretty dumb if it is
im freaking excited for total wamham40k
>>579784157autoresolve is dynamically calculated based off stats, but it takes into account the stat boosts. I'm pretty sure you can make the AI more "intelligent" (abuses micro) without boosting their stats.
>>579776767wulfrik would be cooler if his lines weren't constantly bringing up that hes a cuck for chaoshis trailer was baller, felt a lot more like a badass monster hunter than whatever the fuck he is nowhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbrbDa9EBR0
>>579784456yeah but im asking what exactly affects itno AI stat boosts = it's just as braindead as it is rn? I assumed it was purely campaign difficulty if it's not affected by campaign difficulty I'll just stick wtih my harder autoresolve mod, its good, made me fight way more battles on normal because it's not just roflstomp when outmatched
>>579784157It's campaign difficulty that affects it. You used to be able to change campaign difficulty in the pre battle screen to affect results.
>>579784726oh nice that guy on reddit straight up bullshitting then, that's goodfunny in med2 i was playing lately with m2ex, even on medium difficulty, autoresolve kicks ur ass because it kills off elite units that u cannot easily replenish because no global replenishment so i almost NEVER did that shit, like only when str bar was 80% mine then again just for garrisons its a must have in newer games tho
Not sure why he gained this trait. He just won 2 heroic defensive battles.>>579783895done!
Ai stats modifiers, battle difficulty and campaign difficulty are all separate.
>>579783839>so apparently it also dodges artillery on VHI've never noticed this, unless it means it kicks on their aggressiveness and they'll stop turtling and start moving once they get hit by artillery which is true. I've never seen them like bob and weave artillery fire on vh though. I think the AI is only capable of "dodging" things when its completely idle, if its already moving or fighting or shooting at something they'll pretty much just walk right into it/sit there and take it
>>579785287"many other bonuses" kinda vague desuregardless I'll move on from normal normal to normal battles hard campaign and go on from there, hard campaign should make the campaign map a bit livelier earlier and harder AR is good>>579785594>they'll stop turtling and start moving once they get hit by artilleryit does this on normal
>>579785594I had AI bobbing and weaving artillery earlier today
>>579785594>>579785960if it does that on something like dreadquakes i would seriously get pissed off its slightly immersion breaking, cause, how the fuck are you gonna dodge a mortar shell coming straight at you from spacei might experiment a bit in custom battle w the differnet difficulties and see what it does tho, my fav factions are artillery factions and so far I've been scared to up the difficulty lmao, maybe its finally time tho
>>579784573Wulfrik still got a better trailer than any other lord across 3 games including all the supposed top dogs like Nagash and Archaon. His challenge? Undeniable.
>>579786084pretty hard to miss a dreadquake fire, and what goes up must come downIf I heard one of them go off Id have my eyes glued to the sky
I would simply choose not to ever be in a situation where someone was firing dreadquake mortars at me
>>579786434and just let chorfs capture your city? huh? then enslave your family?
>>579786434Neferata is going to have to deal with both naked dwarfs and slaver dwarfs.
>>579750259It's hitting 40k too. I expect at some point GW will pivot away from the peak woke but it's going to take time and pain. The sheer success of the stupid space king board game making 6,900% more than their kickstarter goal speaks to that. Little Timmy isn't interested in qween lord generals and won't ever be.I don't mind it for 40kTW since I can just mod it out the excess of it same as with R2. The odd female general is fine but from experience of Xcom enemy within if you make it actually 50/50 odds then it goes lopsided, while 33/66 makes it feel more like 50/50.>>579782947It'd be a distraction carnifex but the AI doesn't usually focus-fire on them. For the AI it very much can be a distraction carnifex but you can melt them so fast they aren't a real distraction, nor does it let the army beat you while you are distracted.
