I wish that Boris Todbringer could interact with the Empire. He is a 2026 Legendary Lord but only has 1 mechanic.
>>582338259where is Ulrika?

Queer headgiver has ended me
>>582338890>WHbab sees an attractive female char for the first time >instantly assumes its gacha
>>582339000Loreful.
>>582338259Posting here as well as I was at the end of the last thread.Nagash sucks, there I said it. He is really really terrible. Let me explain>Broke, no money, lucky if you can get a stack and a half mid game and even then you will be completely broke and still using almost exclusively T1 units.>Surrounded by everyone who hates you and will invade you endlessly while your one crap stack is busy>Three ways to recruit units with a unit cap that creates one of the three currencies that you need to do anything, way over complicated and limiting mechanics.>Should have started in Nagashizzar>Starting units suck>Confederation actually hurts you, one of the main mechanics.>Have to build settlements a certain specific way and pattern to get any use out of them.>Can't recruit any new Nagash units until mid game.It's really terrible and I was looking forward to it. Nefratas campaign is much better so is Thanquel.
>>582339096it's a lategame focused campaign foolsorry he doesn't get dreadquake mortar on turn 0
>>582339096I'm really curious as to what the design idea behind Nagash was. They got Nagash himself being a powerhouse down, but it's really dfifficult to become the Undead Legion of the End Times with his current economy and cap system.
>>582339096Sack economy but you own territory. Kislev 2.0
>>582339225>lategameenjoy fighting archaon with tomb guards lololol
>>582339225being broke all game and having over complicated mechanics doesn't make you an end game faction.
>>582339258I think they were trying to cater to people who enjoy ”punch me in the dick” hard play and that's fair but not loreful for nagash.
In my game as Volkmar, SR1 Wulfrik united Norsca and attacked the entire empire with multiple deathstacks. Its like WH1 Norsca player after becoming the Everchosen.
>>582339096People preemptively claimed that he would be op so they made him pathetically weak.
>>582339830Kek, this might be more accurate.
>>582339625>for nagash.That's really my issue with this. Nagash is pretty much the LL that you would expect to became an apocalyptic event like release Skulltaker.
What's that about Nagash being bad? Sorry, but I can't hear you over my unique hero Nurgle Glotkin stack soloing 4 armies at once.
My Teuts. Still needs some research to get full potential.
>>582339096>Confederation actually hurts you, one of the main mechanics.I can cope with being a broke boy but confederating Mortarchs is actually crippling its so bad.
>>582340082Nurgle stomping that nerd Nagash.
IM FUCKING LOCKED BETWEEN FRIENDLY GREEN SKINS MAN WHAT DO I DO?
>>582340306Why are you friendly with them?
>>582340194Makes me wonder if they play tested it and at what difficulty. Should have been a glaring issue that confederation was killing the campaign.
>>582339096Actually sounds like CA tried to balance their game this time, instead of selling a lord who becomes unstoppable after a dozen turns.Fuck you, btw. Babies with 70iq who can't handle the most casual-friendly grand strategy like you are the reason why they do this shit.
>>582340306Your rats look kinda hungry
Is there a mod that gives us the TODDY voiceover yet?
>>582340306Start scheming
>>582340168got simillar bit more juiced and these niggas hold good against arbaals khorne. it's the almost 100 melee defence.good unit imo
Who's the best/most fun dwarf LL?
>>582340214I'm playing Glotkin rn, turn 40, and I'm fairly sure Nagash has died already.
>>582340168AIIIIIEEEEE EMPEROR CHOSENMANII SAVE ME KHORNE
>>582340463>Getting this butt hurtFuck you too anon! The reason it doesn't work to start balancing now is because you are already surrounded by the OP factions they need to nerf them too otherwise you just create a headache where you struggle to compete.
>>582340714malakai, shit start pos tho, if u can't handle it then flee south
They told me Nagash was OP and busted yet I tried to solo the first enemy army and they beat his ass.
>>582340912Is he actually fun or is he solo armies by himself fun?
>>582341042You need your skill tree baka
>>582341075he can't solo shit
>>582341042N'Kari can solo the first enemy army he faces.
Anyone else getting this bug as Toddy?Disband a unit/units. Sometimes the Windows woman speaks minecraft crafting table.
>>582340168>Teutogen Guard in lore and tabletop basically just had them as Ulric flavoured Greatsword equivalents>TW turns them into Exalted Chosen Champions of Ulric UndividedBros I think TWH3 may have a little bit of a power creep problem
>>582340912Last time I played him I made it my goal to try and keep Boris alive, gifting him all the chaotic wasteland climate settlements. It's probably not a optimal strategy but it was fun treating him like my welfare puppet state.
>>582340864God forbid there's a lord who's a little difficult.We didn't have this since Khatep in Warhammer 2.Also, there's a difficulty slider for a reason.Unless you're one of those who wants to play on Legendary but is actually too shit for it, so he cries and complains instead.In the latter case, I can only suggest killing yourself, as per tradition.
>>582341373We reached the point of no return when DLC started to lose to DLC.
>>582339096Its a hard LL that is supposed to pay off in mid/late once you get far enough in his skill tree and with enough necropolis, until he can basically defeat Archaon and/or the Vermintide all by himselfIts a good design but many players are too used with braindead turn 1 victory characters like Taurox or Skulltaker
Skeletor voice mod for Nagash when?
Why is the glotkin evil?
>>582339258Its a slow burn LL that requires work to kickstart because else AI Nagash would just rape and vanquish any faction around itself within 10 turns
>>582341596Because they go around giving people cancer.
>>582341373That's why I still play 2 and complain about 3.You niggers (well, mostly redditors, but you too) ruined this fucking game.Watch CA buff teutogen guards even more in the next patch because this game and it's playerbase are retarded.
>>582341472>there's a difficulty sliderNo shit Sherlock, I play on normal you dumb fucking faggot. Don't assume shit about me or I will assume shit about you. It's poor design it's not just that he is broke it's also the shit mechanics. Address my other complaints or fuck off.
>>582339036weebs get the rope
>>582341693Cancer is good actually, if it had a mouth and could feed itself it would be you but immortal.
HELP ME VAMP-ACCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCK
>>582341879lmao
>>582341697I can't imagine playing 2 anymore these days. The loading times were so looooong.>Watch CA buff teutogen guards even more in the next patch because this game and it's playerbase are retarded.2's powercreep was even worse lol.
yea thanquol is the strongest skaven lord because of this alone
>>582341373No the unit was balanced before the buff (a powerhouse only with Boris/Emil buff) You can thanks Empirebabies and MPfags that really, really wanted their Empire Chosens
>>582340214Yo wtf I thought this was an original
>Nagash niggers crying about greenskinsLmao give me that hat, you clearly can't handle it
>>582341739>Playing on normalYou have no rights to complain, its babies first Total War campaign mode
>>582341739>this campaign is too hard; also, I play on normal
>>582341739Play on easy then, nigger. Turn off Ai bias or some shit, whatever did they add in the latest patch.I mean, kudos to you for admitting that you're shit at the game, but you gotta admit it's not CA's problem and they shouldn't patch the game to appease only shitters.About other complaints - it's supposed to be the ultimate "from rags to bitches" campaign, so slow start is expected. What, you wanted to solo armies from turn 1? That'd be something I wouldn't put past CA, but thankfully it's not the case this time.
>>582341879Such is the power of Fagass.
>>582342160>Bitch about playing on legendary>Bitch about playing on NormalDo tell me how I should be playing this game you fucking loser.
Teutogen Guards are still shit. It's only good with Toadbringer. Compared vs. Iron Claw Tiger Warriors which are good frontline with any Cathayan LL.
do NOT bully anon for playing on normal us normalchads gotta stick together
>>582341329NOTMYARCHERS
>>582338259>Hey Empire>Sorry you've sucked for all of TW3>How about we just give you chosen and the strongest priests this game has ever seen, on top of full access to god tier Empire artilleryBoris is gay and has an awful voice actor but Middenland is super fun
I thought we were a VH/H general?
>start Franz campaign>updated Boris just fucking tears ass across Middenland, effortlessly reclaiming the entire province before I've even marched my piddly little t1/t2 band of misfits up therewell alright
>Empire MPfags already switched to melee-heavy meta armies>No more lorefull gunpowder/cavalry focused armiesHope all your whining to get your busted Empire Chosens was worth it
>>582341596Because they were wronged in the past and now subsist on wronging others.Never allow yourself to become a victim of circumstances.You are better than that.
Whats up with racism against normal difficulty players here lately?
>>582341968In 2 there's Grom, Eshin and Skryre who are broken. The rest are more or less normal. In 3, almost EVERYONE is broken and gets so much passive gigabuffs that the game mechanics stops mattering as soon as your lord reaches level 15, no matter the faction.Big difference.Also I don't notice much difference in loading times at all, but I guess it depends on the hardware.
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/gY01kCt384Q
It's STEEL, faith and gunpowder, not steel, faith and GUNPOWDER kk?
>>582342583You're going in the book
>>582342332Very hard campaign/hard battles is the /twg/ suggested setup. Go win a campaign in this mode and then you can return
>>582342601It's a bunch of try hards trying to shame anons for playing the only correct setting.
>>582338701choppen
i know they're based off the tt model but white wolf mounts being red looks tacky as hell
>>582342617Taurox and the Gecko were too busted in game 2
>>582342538Every game I played before this update had Karl and Elspeth as rank 1 and 2 with them endlessly shitting out armies of landships, outriders and other bullshit. I don't even wanna know how bad it is now with Boris in there as well.
Playing 100% vanilla made me notice how fucking ugly modern unit cards are.
>>582342726>Thinks he has some authority to stop me posting hereWhat are you going to do anon throw a fit? Normal chads rise up.
>>582342557that's clearly just the boris starting stack with early turn recruitment units
>>582342726whats the diff between hard battles and normal battlesassuming no AI cheatshow much better is it at dodging
>>582341373>Teutogen Guard in lore and tabletop basically just had them as Ulric flavoured Greatsword equivalentsMore like Tsar Guard equivalents, they're T4 and can reroll 1s to hitWolf hammers are also different from great weapons, mostly that they hit at initiative but are S+1 unless charging, though they're always AP -2They're a very legit unit to take in WHFB, you just get only one unit per priest of ulric in your army
>>582342687Glottkin are actually based, unlike the Empire they never tried to short-charge Dawi or claim their engineering is better.
Nagash has 0 income sources or any kind of economic synergy across his currencies and what you spend them on and niggas be like "it's supposed to be hard bro"
>>582342726I don't like the battle AI above normal because of how useless some artillery becomes unless the enemy is close, and timing spells right so they hit moving targets is fun. It's also even easier to exploit, since you can just cycle charge them with a single lord and they won't retaliate because they're programmed to not attack single entities.
>>582339096It’s really just his economy that needs a boost, most everything else would be fine if he had more necrotic energy per turn and dark favor. Make it start stronger and then limit the boosts and reduction later in his tree to balance it out more. Naggash on the field is really strong though and I’ve had a blast playing him in battle. And starting in Naggashizzar sounds good on paper, but unless they gave him a teleport stance or something getting out of there would be a nightmare. And fucking Skaven as a starting enemy. But it would be more thematic to have Settra as a mid game opponent.
>>582342915This is what the normies userbase asked for since Prophet and Warlock: busted LLs to no brain any challengeI lost the count of how many times i got called a "boring elitist" for wishing CA stuck on pre-Ikit LLs design of having bonuses but also maluses/limits. Belegar or the Alarielle for examples
>>582342538In my Boris game Karl and Elspeth managed to kill Vlad all by themselves while I dealt with everything else. Was actually really cool for once
>>582340214I haven’t played Glottkin yet but from what I’ve seen the Maggothkin riders seems strong enough to solo Skarbrand while keeping like half of their HP.
>>582340714Belegar Ironhammer, the TRUE King of Karak Eight Peaks.
>>582338396I am AMD.
>>582342878Oh yeah, forgot about Taurox.Gecko I don't know who it is, never touched a lizardmen campaign in my life, they all look the same to me.Okay, admittedly there's like 5 or maybe 6 busted lords. Out of what, 70?Besides, mods exist to nerf their powercreep.And afaik, all modders who worked on balancing the game gave up on Warhammer 3 because the game became a mess on a fundamental level which is pointless trying to fix.
Nice shot by a random archer.
>>582340306You’re skaven, backstab them, it’s the most thematic way to play. Skaven should get reduced diplomatic bonus penalties for backstabbing, like your faction made a deal with Skaven what the fuck did you expect?
>>582343235>and niggas be like "it's supposed to be hard bro"Yes? Dont try to pretend to not knowing that any buff from CA would just turn him into a turn 1 God without limits. Put efforts and by midga game you will avalance powercreep thanks to his pyramid
>>582343312Good to know there's still some people who recognize that the game went to shit after Ikit.It seriously baffles me why almost no one complains about it. Like, genuinely, who finds it fun to just paint the map with your brain off? It's fucking boring, no?When did Total War players became like this. Scratch that, Warhammer players too. Like, Dawn of War playerbase isn't like that either.The fuck happened.
>>582342557MPfags are literally just some dudes playing the game they're going to try out new shitThis isn't a competitive game there's no AoE2 top 200 table
>>582339096His main problem is his lands can be converted back pretty easily so you have to defend shitty minor settlements or you just get rekt as you go over your limit and start losing sigils.>>582339258>>582340194It's pretty funny to confed arkhan or mannfred and now suddenly have to defend their territory with one stack, at best. Arkhan especially covers your ass so well if you don't confed him.
>>582343443I want to have a full campaign with him ever since TWW1 but I fucking hate ghostly dwarf heroes.I could just use them as agents but I just hate them okay?I miss TWW1 Skarsnik campaign as well, gobbos got powercrept so hard it's unreal
>>582340714Depends. If you’re playing straight vanilla (ew), Malakai or Thorek. In the Old World campaign (kino) Belgar might be one of the best campaigns ever. In IEE I found Thorgrimm to the be the best for whatever reason even though none of them really get any usable expansion options or new starting positions.
>>582343509Why would I want to nerf them instead of buffing others? Anyone who wasn't DLC SUCKED to play in 2 because they had zero flavor.
>>582343764>This isn't a competitive game there's no AoE2 top 200 tableBut CA is desperate to break into the competitive MP scenes so they always listen to MPfafs feedback. They outright killed cool units to use in the campaign like the Salamanders or the Gorgers because they distrupted their elaborate paper/rock/scissor rules of MP units
>>582343571WE'RE BLESSED!
>>582342152I can’t wait for more modders to do something fun with Azhag now that Naggash is in the game. Killing him as Naggash should give a huge reward, and killing Naggash as Azhag should instantly vassalize all of the mortarch factions.
>>582338376It's just like Elspeth and every non-Franz Empire lord, that's just how it is.
>>582344020wdym salamanders are goatedunless you mean ancient because yeah that thing is dogshit
>Vampcunts get TWO lords this DLCSasuga
>>582343874>Anyone who wasn't DLC SUCKED to play in 2 because they had zero flavor.Irmik, Repanse, Lokhir, Thirek and other FLC lords were usually considered better and more balanced to play than the busted DLC lords and their more and more convoluted mechanicsSame goes in 9.0 with Neferata and Boris with his simpler mechanics are more fun than Nagash or Thanquol
>>582344335only 1 right? neferata
I'm reinstalling, to play my 65th empire campaign, or my 50th high elf campaign.
>>582344463Todbringer is actually a really fun campaign, even on legendary
>>582343874Because you can fucking see what happened in 3 when CA decided to buff everyone - game broke.Replenishment, morale, economy management, hero/lord management, unit management - none of this matters in game 3 because every lord received endless passive gigabuffs. Like, fuck, people complain about Bretonnia being weak and needing a rework, but from what I've played fucking men-at-arms have unbreakable morale and can go toe-to-toe with orc infantry under lord's buffs.The fuck is this shit. It ruins everything, from faction identities to enjoyment of the game. >tl;dr "buffing instead of nerfing" mentality is cancer and kills videogames.
>>582344134Don’t know enough lorewise but should Azhag’z spell lore be changed to lore of undeath now? Or remain as lore of death? Does he have a TT lore spell book?
>>582344825For some people "fun", actually means "i want a campaign impossible to lose where on turn 1 i am already all powerfull". Basically the crowd that still calls Prophet and the Warlock the best DLC in Warhammer history
>>582344412Duke
>>582339096Say it.
>>582344381>Irmik, Repanse, Lokhir, Thirek and other FLC lords DLC just means downloadable content. FLCs are still DLC, just free, you're proving my point. All the FLC had powercreep except for Drycha, because she was stuck with melee infantry, in a game where melee infantry for the most sucked and ranged dominated, when all the other Welves were ranged focused. Anything that wasn't DLC was boring to play.>>582344861>Like, fuck, people complain about Bretonnia being weak and needing a rework, but from what I've played fucking men-at-arms have unbreakable morale and can go toe-to-toe with orc infantry under lord's buffs.??? Bretonnia hasn't received any significant changes since 2023. You're imagining buffs that aren't even there.
What is your favorite region and why? For me The Dragons Isles has always been my favorite. I like it's location, and having 4 ports in one region just feels so good. When playing Chorfs I usually beeline right for it so I can start producing unholy amounts of Armaments
>>582339096Let me summ up your wall of text for the fellow anons>REEEE I PAYED FOR THIS LORD I DONT WANT TO PUT ANY EFFORT DLC LORDS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE BUSTED
>>582343784Its pretty funny how beastmen did the devastation mechanic better than Nagash.
>>582344861>people want a bret rework because of unit strengthYou're a fucking retard m8
>>582344861>men-at-arms have unbreakable morale and can go toe-to-toe with orc infantry under lord's buffs. I do not remember this what lord does this?
>>582345208>wall of textI don't argue with the illiterate
The flavortext is confusing maybe I misunderstood how guardian worked but I thought that it made the accompanying lord take reduced damage when the Guardian unit is nearby it, but this upgraded version makes it seem like the unit WITH Last in Defeat is the one that gets the ward save and Cannot Die instead of the lord they're guarding
men exist for other races to abuse
>>582345778>Ar-Ulric would like to know your location
>>582341697enjoy spamming archers, nigger faggot
>>582345526"last in defeat" grants the "cannot die" trait. The box at the bottom is an explanation for the "cannot die" trait. So lords/heroes in range of this hero will take damage but be unable to die. Its all there in plain english.
>>582344939>For some people "fun", actually means "i want a campaign impossible to lose where on turn 1 i am already all powerfull". Basically the crowd that still calls Prophet and the Warlock the best DLC in Warhammer historyI think they're autists who watched LegendofTotalWar completely break TW2 and just copy his cheese, which no longer works in TW3
>>582346034>which no longer works in TW3
>>582344971no, he's not playable
Them giving new voices to the old Ulrican RoR is pure SOVL.
>>582345183Estalia is cozy as are most of the southern realms. Each lord feels justifiable to fight for whatever faction you’re playing (Ikit fighting Morghur, Sartossa, or the Enchantress makes sense for example). It’s easy enough to control choke points, but you can also maneuver around them with a navy, and other than Skavenblight the whole area just looks nice. Also for whatever reason I forget it’s there in my campaigns and then get pleasantly surprised how much I enjoy fighting there.
damn thanquol isn't a very good caster, most of his spells suck except plague and a few others
>>582345993right but then this implies that its the herald that cannot die until the lord dies
>>582346342i think they're not in the list of ulfric units right? i don't remember seeing them, so they don't benefit from the bonuses
i want to have raw unprotected sex with neferate, the vampire queen
>>582346704same but queek
Bought DLC, but playan Neffy first, the VC rework looks great and her mechanics aren't power fantasy stomping
>>582346034>break TW2 and just copy his cheese, which no longer works in TW3anon, I...
>>582346704A cryptic statement, could you please be more clear on what you actually want?
>>582346197>>582347052Sorry, let me rephrase:You cannot play Nagash by spamming archers chequerboards so they have no clue what to do
Does Azhag get any new mechanics?
The Mixed review times
>>582347162You can, but you don't really need the archers, Nagash + summons tends to be enough
>>582347162You're telling me stack my skelemanii in a corner, then casting AoE spells when the opponent clashes with my frontline, won't work? Checkboard formations are still optimal for ranged armies.
>>582345337Why else then? What's wrong with Bretonnia?Oh I know what. They need another UNIQUE currency which will apply GREEN GIGABUFFS, and a unique UI tab for the whole system management.That'll surely make Bretonnia awesome. Like Warriors of Chaos or even better!>>582345350Any lord with redline skills lmao. And Repanse in particular with her unique shitter unit buffs.
>>582347504Warriors of Chaos genuinely did become awesome, though. They felt awful to play in 2.
NAGASH IS WEAK
retarded fucking asshole demon rushed in and died like a bitch, why is that my problem exactly
WITNESS TRUE POVERTY!
>>582347807>rat boi gets gaped by GODREK and CHADLIXmany such cases
>>582347269Nope. A lot of planned shit was cut or postponed for a future patch (like Manlet's unique skilline)
>>582348201>Manletseethe
>Glotkin have actual dialogue lines with Gutrot Spume at the start of a battleHoly shit. They also have unique flavor text for when Festus' quest battle unlocks.
>>582347909Was Thanquol a good friend of fellow Gaped Wrestling legend Kevin R. Nash? Gotrek indeed seems to me very african-american coded
>massive success despite the doom legend had preached what did CA mean by this?
>>582348636Where did Legend preach doom?
im still early in my first playthrough but it seem like the AI legendary lords really slow down when you kill them, i killed morathi, its been 5 turns and she's still not back with a full stack, thank god for escalating wounds
>>582347807>ratsissy loses to empsissiesKWAB
>>582347040Nagash is anything but power fantasy.>>582347609The only good thing about wh2 was that there was less chaos everywhere.
good job CA
Boris final battle against Khazrak was pretty good last stand vibes but could've been bit harder.
>>582347807It's like that quest battle that unlocks gotrek and felix
>>582346438Yea that's a pretty nice region. I like that whole coastline all the way down to Saratossa.
>You will never watch Legend play a "saving your disaster campaign" for Nagash
10 years of "thanquol soon" and he fucking sucks lmao
well?
>>582349317>not how do you rat us
So my best guess for Nagash is you build tall and don't really expand at all until your pyramid is about tier 4 and you can get some decent units.
>>582349206Failing is one of his core character traits though
>>582349124Blame the fanbase for wrongly accusing him of making up the Shang Yang leak, instead of having his back
>>582349206Why would you say this, friend?
>>582341373I genuinely don't understand the empire wank from ca in wh3 when there are several factions from wh2 that have been untouched for like 5 years now
>>582347834Kek
>>582349408I am a better man. I had his back, I superchatted, I joined the channel, I became a mod during Sotek's Black Lives Matter livestream. George Floyd is smiling upon me, can you say the same?
>>582349372Reminds me of Chorfs where you need to prioritize your special resource early (Arms/Labor/Raw materials) over gold. In Nagash's case you need shitloads of necromantic energy.
>>582349372You gotta wipe out everything to the west of you because all but arkhan are actively hostile and WILL attack you. You gotta wipe out Settra. Which then opens you up to Skarbrand. And basically playing tall doesn't work in this game because it's tricky for a lot of factions to build buffer states without cheesing the AI via stuff like >>582349001
>>582345031>those dick sucking eyesVampires are so gay.
>>582345526>>582345993>>582346450It says "affected units" and allies, not the same unit applying it. The flavortext is more there for culture stuff that mechanics. It is neat, but it's probably better if it were on the lord instead. Though that'd be OP, it's already pretty strong having an unkillable lord as long as you have one of these fuckers kiting around the proximity
>>582347504No, you unimaginative, strawmanning queefcake. They need the currency they have to do something, their vow system to not be utterly retarded, and preferably the green knight getting overhauled. Anything else, like errantry wars, would be nice but is extra and unlikely without a dlc.
>>582348412Why does nurgle get all the cool stuff anons?
>>582349714Because the actual faction is complete ass.
>>582349124He will back one day, with the political-foused channel he wished to open but couldnt because It wouldnt had been well received by his Warhammer-watching audience (whatever this cryptic statement of him means)
>>582339096I can't believe CA actually got mogged by the Nagash faction mod...
>>582347609>>582348914I have to agree that 3 does in fact have *too* much chaos for such a small map
>>582349635>>582349560You misunderstand you channel all that fighting straight into your black pyramid settlement. Actually expanding beyond it is pointless while you wipe skarbrand and you will just get trapped in a poverty cycle and using your energy to get trashcan armies. you don't even really get sigils from expanding so it makes no difference. I just stick to khemri and the pyramind as my necropoli and let arkan take care of one side as I wipe skarbrand.
>>582349814>with the political-foused channel he wished to open but couldnt because It wouldnt had been well received by his Warhammer-watching audience (whatever this cryptic statement of him means)He never said that, someone here made that up. He only said he'll be back at some point.
>>582339096>Have to build settlements a certain specific way and pattern to get any use out of them.This gets me. I have no idea why they made it so you have to track a checkboard pattern for maximum gains when your goal is meant to be to shit undead wasteland everywhere.
>>582349206He is great, what do you not like?
>>582349372Build tall doesn't really work, you want to expand safely into Arkhan's region because you won't get attacked over there once you kill Repanse, but the minor buildings give faction buffs so you kind of want a lot of them. Every couple of provinces you get a necropoli, and then move on.>>582349452Empire was extremely barebones compared to 2 factions and Dwarfs/Greenskins who got big reworks early.
>>582346704>semen is more powerful than blood
>>582349972Nope he said it in one of his last streams, where he talked about politics for quite a lot. His ideas were to me somewhat similar to the average 2016-circa Sargon of Akkad follower
>>582350270You made that all up.
>>582339096I don't get what the fuck is the point of necropolisThey just don't have good buildings so the cap feels extremely unecessary
Am i the only one who thinks the Nagash campaign is absolutely miserable?You quickly get a lot of provinces with a large landmass, making defending them an absolute chore since it takes so long to get to where the ai is attacking you, And you have no exonomy to field that many armies. I'm in the minus fielding 2.5 armies on turn 70. I guess Mannfred was right all along.
>>582349206He's great, least bloated of the new characters. In a world of factions with 4+ resources and 2 different ways to spend each. A simple singular panel with a singular resource is welcome. Takes me back to the early WH2 days before Ikit taught CA all the wrong lessons.
i just violently jerked off to thanquol fucking neferata SFM, i am now satisfied and will leave this thread to pursue some outdoor activity.
>>582349828How could CA fuck up Nagash, they had a blueprint.
>>582350489The necropolis is the only way to get decent income. You want as many as you can get.
>>582350714Before you go m'lord, can you catbox it?
>>582350769what, with the building that gives corpse cart?it's the only one that gives money
the warp doom magma cannon is an absolute fuck machine holy shit
>>582338259>no corruption graphics overhaul>no camping rework>devastation happens to easily and clears to quickly>still same fissures of lava, blood, goo and perfume. >skaven corrupted land is still ugly asf >vampire corruption is still grey wetHoepfully they rework the graphics alongside corruption
>>582350913It's your main army building, gives skill points, and lets you spread devastation. Yeah, Nagash's economy is fucked but Nagash is almost a 1 man army by himself and you can have a bunch of cheap zombie armies.
>>582350051Nagash settlement building autism is wild given the lore for nagash not to mention being a broke fag all game so you never get legions of death.
>>582350714>SFMunc...
>>582350913Indeed. Thats your economy. If you're lucky you can get a gold or diamond mine.>>582351101>Have to wipe out Beastmeme herdstones to colonize razed settlements>Casually colonize Undead Wasteland and the climate instantly reverts back to normalSeems like a big oversight that you dont need to take out the necropolis first.
>>582351101Yeah that's lame. I was really expecting something after how they hyped up new corruption.
>Monkey.
>>582350270>legend of total war reviwed attila >pushed around that "le church" destroyed rome His review is up there. Guy is a lefty tool
>>582351327>Seems like a big oversight that you dont need to take out the necropolis first.You would think, right? Nagash devastation feels super easy come easy go.
>>582351423Give me the monkey
>>582351423I hope the next Cathay DLC happens when the game is done (never). They have 4 Legendary Lords too many already, they don't need a 5th.
>>582350615Nagash campaign is terrible. So limited with goofy mechanics around building a checkerboard or the ”right” settlements just to be able to crap out another stack of T1 units.
>>582351327I wonder if there's anyone you can even trade with as Nagash, or if you should bother
>>582351327>If you're lucky you can get a gold or diamond mine.My favorite part is that he has commandments or other buffs that buff his trade income but you can't actually make any tradeable resources from the buildings
>>582351683Convoluted way to write "I expected to full stacking morghasts by turn 5, therefore its a bad campaign"
>>582351736You can trade with your Mortarchs if you dont confederate them. But resource buildings dont even give you resources so its just tariffs.
>>582351683You feel like a god though. You do on lots of lords, but double for Nagash. It might be meta to have one army and just let Nagash go alone with some zombies.
Can we stop it with all these fucking currencies CA
>>582347057foot fetish is fucking retarded
>>582351950Monke Kang will have Bananas as currency
>>582351021It should have 1000 upkeep, maybe more
I understand it's hard to accept but "This LL is broke" or "This campaign is too miserable" is actually a positive, not a negative. When you say:>Nagash is fricking broke guysYou effectively say>Nagash is good
>>582351683I feel my decision of choosing to play thanquol first has paid off.
>>582351134>and you can have a bunch of cheap zombie armies.Oh boy!!
>>582352162No he's broke because he doesn't have any fucking money
>>582352162Im complaining a lot about Nigash but its probably just the learning curve. Im only frustrated because I had to go to sleep because it was 2am. Im having fun.
>>582351667https://youtu.be/ApRYEJjqCjI?t=1321
Nagash has two resources.>dark magicAnd>necromantic magic
>>582352293He's a Skelly-men Vampire Cunt hybrid, of course Nagash will have a bunch of zombies.
>>582352309Awesome
I know it's a cowardly tactic, but my top tip for dealing with people who declare war on me is to give them a shitty settlement and wrinse them for as much money as possible.Around turn 25, Clan Moulder had two stacks outside Wolfburg and delclared war. I 'gifted' him Wolfburg in exchange for 30,000 gold and peace. I can take the settlement back later.
Nagash is woke thus nagash is brokesimple as
Why is it devastated? When does it run out?
>Clan Mors unending stacks of rat fucks
>>582352247>thanquolMuch better than Nagash. That cannon is a little OP though.
>>582349375Thanquol is hilarious although I've only read the William King books so I have no idea what they've done to him since End Times wankery started>Skaven trying to take over Nuln but Thanquol wants all the credit for the invasion>sends """anonymous""" letters to Gotrek and Felix to tip them off about his fellow leaders and their forces>every time the skaven leaders are thwarted it somehow horrifically fucks up Thanquol's own forces as well>launches his invasion of Nuln with his massively crippled and disorganized forces, but they're sort of under his command now>his entire plan hinges on the countess surrendering when he demands it>has literally no idea what to do when she says no>all of his forces end up being stalled and routed by rag tag mercenaries>swears vengeance on Gotrek and Felix, gassing them up in his mind as hyper competent legendary heroes and his ultimate personal nemeses for foiling him, which only happened because of Thanquol sending them intel in the first place
vampirate lords are pretty sturdy eh
who is the real rat here

>>582353018>Confederating Akhan so you have to disband his armiesNo, its better to keep him active on the map and allied.
>>582352520We already have two other factions who's selling point is cheap zombies it's getting over played.
>>582352785alas it should be bigly op and I cannot have it any other way in total war
>pirate loot stash discovered in Altdorf giving me diplomacy and trade penalties>3000 gold to destroy it>finally have the spare cash>right before I destroy it the pirates in Altdorf do three consecutive events, each giving me almost 4000 goldalright i guess they can stay i hope this doesn't blow up in my face
>>582353182Nagash can actually progress through the tiers pretty quick if he pours all his resources into one necropolis. The problem is you can't afford the upkeep for the advanced units lol
>>582353117He'd own Nuln. Initially the plan was for the various skaven leaders to cripple the city via plague, mutant rat infestations, assassination and theft, etc and then just take it over. Thanquol thwarted them all to put his plan into effect, which was to attack the city and pressure the countess into surrendering to spare the lives of all the citizens.He infiltrates a masquerade party the countess is hosting while the rest of the skaven begin attacking the city. He tries to make a cool 500 IQ villain entrance as he approaches her but nobody takes his retinue seriously because everyone thinks they're humans in costume.
>>582353652A little more economy for Nagash could go a long ways.
>>582352974and felix too
nagash and his minions look like he saw one of those final fantasy memes about all the belts on characters and decided to recreate it with spines
It kind of sounds like Nagash sucks in a similar way to Daniel, which would be pretty funny
>>582353901Any suggestions on that quest battle? I started it at level 14 shortly after it unlocked and looking at all the reinforcement has me holding off.
>I could invest in handmaidens>or I could get chaff zombies and wipe the enemy army with a single overcast wind of deathhmm..
What's the point of being able to construct siege towers and battering rams if the city garrison is completely dead by attrition by the time one of them is completed?
thanquol x queek
>>582354124Can't remember the last time I sieged a city.
>>582354080Nagash is difficult and has some questionable design choices but is at least a strong lord.Daniel is completely unplayable. A weak lord, lacking in basic features. Unable to compete with any of this neighbors. He can't even recruit units because his local recruitment is permanently locked to like 2 slots for the entire campaign.
>>582354248I wish the enemy would siege my cities. The funnest battle I had was defending Ubersreik against three full stacks after the Red Moon Inn was completed so I had the Vermintide 5
>>582354080He is Daniel if Daniel spent all his money on scratch offs.
>>582354341A challenge beyond the comprehension of the playerbase
I am guessing the Dark Iron Pit building for Nagash, which increases +10 armor for Grave Guards factionwide, doesn't stack?Or?
>>582354341Daniel gets really strong global if he goes undivided.
Man, imagine if the Necrarch bloodline had any of the actually good damage spells like Pendulum, Pit or god preserve us, Wind of Death.Don't get me wrong, perma 170%+ spell intensity is great however you slice it, but Purple Sun and Bjuna just ain't it man.
Neffy is cool so far
>fighting Rakarth on his manticore >shoot him out the sky with my Ushabti great bowsDon't think I've even dealt with him as quickly as this. Never realised Ushabti great bows were this good bros.
Am I the only one turned on by Nagash's legs? Like put those things away, ho
>>582341596Cause Nurgle is a piece of shit.
>>582354993Welcome to January 2017 when Tomb Kings came out and everyone else realized they were good.
>>582354104dont give thanquol range boneripper, biggest mistake have siege and position it correctly, i was mostly sitting and waiting with my army holding the chokepoints, until the bell tolledmay have to retry once or twice
It's funny to see beastmen AI actually working now. Not well, but working.
>>582354993They are one of the reasons why Tomb Keks worked at all.
Is this trait bugged? The diplomatic boost is mirrored on the condemned side cancelling it out entirely.
>>582356014Zog it bloodsuckin git
>>582339096lower the difficulty
>>582355431Thanks anon, will give it a try.
>>582356370It's not difficulty it's that his provinces have zero garrison and can't afford armies to patrol it.
>>582355778TK rework when? They never even got a new faction after the initial four, it's fucked up.
I'm ending my non-aggression pact with you anons

lamian handmaidens are unkillanble hwta the fuck
The card art for the new Empire units looks so bad, what the hell happened?
>>582357371Card art for new units has sucked ass for a long time by now.
>>582357371Starting as Boris and being flashbanged by the new cards being put alongside Spearmen(Shields) in the army roster was funny as hell.
>>582357294Limbus Company
I actually lost to malagor. He's too strong, wrecked my crap stacks and sacked all my settlements.
>>582357371They starting applying filters to screenshot of the unit instead of hiring artists. Its very lazy and 40k looks even worse.
>>582357621RAA ROORAA ROORAA ROO
i think, it's safe to say that Nagash was weak.
I had forgotten that Fanatics were a thing lmao
>>582357371https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2789914172I love this guy's stuff.
>>582357871These are terrible. Not enough visual distinction between unit types. It all blurs together into a monocolor blob
Coven Thrones are pretty good.
It turned out that Neferata won all along...
Peak Neffy immersion is AFKing the siege battle while the neutral shared enemy army that reinforced nearby does the work for you.
>>582358274Neferata was RIGHT
>>582358043You're acting like the base game isn't the same. All the monogods are just the same color, the Ogres all have the same red, Kislev is all just icy blue.
>>582358813>that Egrimm shaped hole in the Tzeentch roster
Kislev gets 1 DLCCathay gets 3 DLCsIs CA bad at mathematics?
they must have buffed post battle food for skaven, im absolutely swimming in it
>>582358813OK but these actually look like dogshit I don't even hate AI but these look like fucking garbage.
>>582358947CA said DLC is done with GW permission now.Kislev is on ice (hue) due to russia bad, so until GW decides what Kislev's new direction is there will be no more additions.
So flying unit pathfinding is completely broken? My bats literally can't go in a straight line. Also my fell bats speak now when I give them a command? That's really weird.
>>582358971>I don't hate AIThey're not AI. The mod came out before it was a big thing.
>>582351423Keep us posted if you find anymore. Marienburg was found in the files a few months ago.
>>582359149everything is broken in sieges
I shouldn't have set the Chaos Invasion to appear so early. I'm nothing more than a prideful fool.

>Confederate Arkhan>Suddenly I'm not allowed to end my turnS-such is the power of nagash.....
how do you guys counter batsthis seems silly that fucking bats are giving me trouble but every time I fight vampires they always have like a 20 stack of nothing but bats that just leaps on my ranged/artillery and I can at best kill maybe 1/4 of them before those units are totally useless for the rest of the battle
>>582359140They should lean into Sami culture
>>582359565Can't you use a crisis event to buff some order faction?
>>582359617>Empire enters bat countryhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=updoM-EuHrQ
>>582359617Dont use ranged units. Or use hybrid units that can beat bats in melee like free company.
Sly Da Miser.
>>582359617Ranged focused on gunning down incoming bats. One unit of cav or infantry behind the ranged units to swoop in an kill bats that survive and reach your ranged units. Increase number of these body guard units depending on volume of bats.
I'm unhappy to report the VCunts rework is shit. They basically play like Kangz now but worse because your uncapped chaffshit units are categorically worse and losing high-end units actually really hurts since you have to pay that blood cost every time instead of getting free recruit/upkeep. The upkeep is also an issue now since you can't just spam the basic econ buildings, you need to play like chorfs/Dechala and balance your buildings. Which sucks since the reward for doing so is units that were balanced around being insta-recruitable anywhere (read: mediocre). I don't think the system is completely unsalvageable but all the corpse units should be uncapped, I shouldn't need to max out multiple provinces to field a stack of fucking grave guard, and the blood units either need big buffs or much lower recruit cost, since it's complete shit right now. I'm playing Neffy and the only reason Arbaal didn't assrape me is I used the lord assassinate ability to kill him and dumped literally all my blood into making a lvl 30 mega-lord turn 12 that could kill his armies because my 2 provinces and armies that were 90% chaffshit were not beating his T0 Bloodletters and Chaos Warriors otherwise.
>>582359617Bats die instantly to anything with decent melee stats, the reason players don't use them is because AI always has a mix of melee/ranged so if you don't micro the shit out of them they melt.
>>582359617HEHEHEHE
>>582359149>So flying unit pathfinding is completely broken?Yes? Has been since day 1, it just wasn't as noticeable because the maps were way smaller. But don't worry, 40k, with it's brand new warcope engine, won't have those problems. Trust.
>>582360196Unit caps were a mistake.
Should I recruit skaven slaves with spears or just skaven slaves?
>>582360314what the fuck man
>>582360229Bats are expendable units you are meant to raise dead them after they die blocking missile fire. But total war players are highly autistic and hate losing units.
>>582360314Kek
>>582346493You meaN for the quest unlocking Emil ?
>>582360348Before the patch your flying units could at least pass over buildings. The bats are literally following the roads now.
>AI uses its unique heroes on the campaign mapclassic
>>582360901Oh, can the other Empire lords get Ar Ulric?Todbringer starts with him on turn 1.
>>582360910Not good if true
>>582360314Batshit insane
>>582360910They're civil creatures.
>>582360954"Where is Krell?"Oh, he is scouting Reikland.
>>582360196I'm torn on it.I hate the blood costs, because most units cost about as much as a single upgrade to a Bloodline lord, so you end up having to pick do you set up a lord for later or get a single unit now.That said stacking up endless bodies for Zombies/Skeletons/Corpse-Carts was super easy, and with how good Necromancer Heroes/Lords are I was able to win loads of bullshit fights with 1-3 necromancers and a bunch of shit which is so cheap it might as well be free.The Zombie +250% Healing cap research also made this strat even stronger.I'm on about turn 60, and with a Mortis Nexus getting 1000 blood per turn, and several of the 120 blood buildings going (and every province at +20 blood per turn) I'm bringing in around 1600 per turn (after paying the blood tax on some of the flowers I have).I had to AGGRESSIVELY expand early to get the economy going, and taking zarrniggrund early made life a lot easier.I'm now at the point where I'm starting to have money issues while Blood is piling up.
>thanquol>archaonI need a fun campaign after nagash.
>>582360437They work on Kangz because their units are all free and Chorfs have the caps separate from buildings and for really strong units so it's tolerable, but it absolutely doesn't work well on Vamps because for like 10 years your units were largely trash because you could pull a whole stack out of your ass. If I could just buy cap increases like Chorfs for the actually good units I could tolerate it but needing to hold territory to increase cap for fucking DIRE WOLVES is absurd.
>>582361137>Here he is, the legendary Slayer Gotrek; providing +2 control in razed Altdorf!
>>582360581That's fair, I guess I'm too used to thinking about value in terms of kills/cost but really treating them like less than peasants makes sense.I wish I could tell them to slow the fuck down though.
[UPDATE]Thanquol has now moved down to mix.Out of the 4, Nagash is the only one to keep his Positive rating so far.
>>582358645>neferats is alt right
>>582361240I agree, I like the chord caps and how they work and they make sense for the faction. Same with tomb kings, it works.
>>582351423>>582351667
Azhag should be able to grab Nagash's hat after defeating him.
>Dismiss a tomb herald>"What is my purpose now......."I-I'm sorry
>>582361240I think with FIVE red buildings that need to be in a capital to maximize their effects, the only way to play VCounts now is to think about what units you actually want to use.My Neferata campaign I've only been building the Vampire building and the Necromancer Building, and in the big provinces I mix in the Grave Guard building.I can fit enough units of each type into my armies, though of course I don't have access to ghosts/beasts.I think in my Kemmler campaign I'll try using ghosts more to see how it feels.Vlad campaign is definitely getting the beasts building spammed.
i love google ai
>>582361374[UPDATE 2]Having read the reviews the issues are as follows;>Glottkin gives nothing good to Nurgle and his mechanics are complete nothingburgers compared to other WoC lords>Empirefags are chimping about the Teutogen Guard nerf and reviewbombing Boris because of it>Thanquol's masterplans are apparently quite buggy and his campaign seems to have a few softlocks
>>582352960These numbers are a bit odd
>>582360962Yeah (as KF) you got a quest asking you to construct a tier 2 Ulrican building then a second quest asking you to kill 1500 ennemies with Urican units.I guess other Empire LL have the same quests.
>>582361846I think that's damage calculated as gold value
>>582361746
>Vampire Counts got a surprise 10th RoRThis just happened this patch right? Because I don't remember seeing these guys even after the Counts got Mournguls.

>>582362062its a good lore. The only bad spell is the weapon strength buff.
>>582361374Nagash is only positive because he's Nagash. His campaign is brutal and they need to change how lands of the dead revert.

>>582341739nta, but I'm playing legendary/vh and I'm not really having economy problems. I have a nagash stack and an arkhan stack and still have positive income with only 3 provinces, so I don't really see the issue
>>582361805Glottkin are just top tier WoC, they are horribly unfun with how OP they are. Their gardens and blessings are also better as whole. Their only issue is that their vassals remove their corruption. Tod brings nothing new to the empire and his mechanics are very simple.Thranquol is just wtf, his schemes make no sense
>>582362150All Cathay needs for me to consider it a true 10/10 is a Handgunner expy. Sure they have grenades and shotguns but I want rifles, even if they're limited to Peasant statlines.

>>582362506>Thranquol is just wtf, his schemes make no senseWhat makes no sense about them? I caught on pretty quick and I didn't even read the introductions.
When are they adding Knuckles to the game?
Ungrim Thorek or Thorgrim? Never played Dwarfs.
>>5823416972 is fucking awful fuck that go ahead and play it anon and spam your 19 archers because anything else on the higher difficulties are retarded
>>582363271Thorgrim. He's the face of the race for a reason.
>>582361745I get the idea that you want to specialize since the tech tree also reflects that, I just dislike it since >you basically build the same army over and over>if that army gets countered you eat shit way worse than previously since it's inordinately hard to change army compsIt's fine for shorter campaigns but going from fighting Chorf hobgob stacks to Khorne CW stacks felt awful because I couldn't adjust my army comp easily.
>>582363271Thorek is opUngrim if you like glass cannon melee armiesThorgrim has a good starting army and lots of nearby enemies
>>582362148like do you think this army here was worth 20 food
How are you meant to kill undead as Repanse. I remember it being so easy yet I've been struggling, its not even 9.0, I've been struggling with her start for ages even though I breezed through it during game 2 era.

Why is nothing happening in Ulthuan and Naggaroth? Did those guys skip the end times?

Some of this new art is so baaaad. Like holy shit look at the Empire Wolves.

>>582362150Number 1 is correct.
>>582363690Right? Where's Ulthuan sinking or Malekith Eternity King??
>>582362150>requires actual brainpower
lets see how the chaos invasion handles these stacks
Loving Thanquol and Boris so far.
>>582362506>Thranquol is just wtf, his schemes make no senseTheir UI is horrible, and they are incredibly boring as a mechanic. I very much enjoyed Tod though, but I'll agree his campaign is nothing special, but that's nice in it's own way
>>582364159OH FUCK GHULETOR BROS... NOT LIKE THIS
>>582362716I found that quest battle very hard. In that I tried it twice and failed.
>>582364301>they are incredibly boring as a mechanicI have to at least give credit to CA for making Nagash not just have an "i win" screen.
>>582364159"Military Alliance Negotiated: The Great Orthodoxy and Middenland"Those religious folk have to stick together.
>>582363340>Basically build the same army over and overTo an extent, I did have loads of Necromancer with Skelly/Zombie armies for the first 20-30 turns.Now my armies are..Neferata with loads of Handmaidens.Lahmian with a mix of Handmaidens and Drakenhof TemplarBlood Dragon with Blood Knights, Templars, Black Knights, and a Coven ThroneBlood Dragon with Grave Guard & Skeletons he inherited from a Necromancer (I also gave him the Commander Title to make it more thematic).Necrarch with a bunch of Crypt Ghouls and a few Crypt Horrors from the two buildings I made to support that, along with Zombies/Skeletons.Necromancer Lord with nothing but trashNecromancer Lord with nothing but trashEach army has at least one hero, most have two or three.Any time I make a new army they start the same but I slowly filter out the corpse units for blood units.Once I have the research that makes it so corpse and blood units give 100% refund it'll be far more efficient too.
>Neferata is more fun than all of the DLC LLsHow did she win so hard?
>NYEH
does creaminstaller unlock the new dlc
>>582364159damn that terrain looks really cool, why can't Chaos factions make it look like this normally?
>>582363950Saved for End times DLC part 2
How is Archaon after this update?
>>582364351I fucked it up and engaged it like a normal battle the first time.The second time I kept my army in the forest and waiting for the entire bretonnian force to show me its ass, before I had Neferata and her two lhamian vampire heroes rush in and "weaken the lord" near instantly.
>>582364450This was the same for Epidemius when Thrones of Decay released.FLC lords receive more love and care.
the moment ai drops its sieges it will never mount them again
>>582364406Kislevites are decent fans of Ulric, they see him as Ursun's sidekick.
>>582364479we dont do piracy here
You know... they never actually explained what Archaon's problem was.
>>582363690you forgot Cathay.
>>582364607FLC lords are made to get new players to buy the DLC, so it kind of makes sense.
>>582364501They were too lazy to redo corruption. Only undivided and vampiric looks really shit though.
>>582364765He's a child from a single mother
>>582339096>Should have started in NagashizzarHoly fuck. This.Claiming the black pyramid and ruining Settra's day should be an early game goal, not something literally given to you on turn fucking one. Who thought this was a good idea? It's like saying Tehenhauin should start with stage 1 of the prophecy of Sotek already cleared.
>>582364907Corruption did get touched.Slaanesh corruption puts pink mist everywhere now for example.
so middenland is basically a melee blob faction
>>582364602First time I tried it normally. Second I tried to gank the lord immediately which got him down quick but then the rest of the army had to be dealt with. I maybe could have gotten if if I'd kept trying but twice was enough for me.
>>582365006Yeah
Damn the generic slayer lord sucks ass
>>582364945Unironically this.
>>582359149You're not supposed to be playing sieges
>>582364986Problem with starting in Nagashizzar is that they would've had to give Nagash an underway mechanic since that terrain is impossibly aids to traverse normally.
>>582365083I thought empire was supposed to have bad infantry and use artillery, magic, guns and cavalary tactics to win
>>582365006>>582365083what's stopping you from using handgunners
>>582364765No elf gf.
>>582365210Well you're gay and wrong so eat shit stupid gay boy
>>582364986A race to the black pyramid would have been cool. Could have made it like the eight peaks DLC.
Nagash solo'd three invasion armies :O
>>582365387B-b-but I was told he had a bad economy how do you have money WTF >>582365320
>>582365204Or they could have made the terrain better, or given him a plus 100% movement building just for that provence. Not a big deal to solve.
>>582365204Honestly, I wish the devs had tried to be more original and daring for once, and straight up locking Nagash out of his own campaign until he gets properly resurrected. Imagine starting out in a shit province, literally cuked out of your own LL and forced to use generic lords to get around until you fulfill the conditions to revive Nagash, and THEN you can enjoy the power fantasy.>But anon, that sounds liked pure AIDS!Suffering build character.
>>582365856But anon, that sounds like poor SALES!
>>582365497Become an orc
>>582365856Nobody liked Attila because it was too difficult.Everyone liked Tamurkhan because he was giga overpowered.
This is kinda sad. For the first time in over a year Vlad managed to push up and defeat Elspeth. Karl Franz meanwhile went around him and took out his core region. Poor Vlad needs vamp allies
>>582365497He can sack well but another issue he has is sacking through skarbrand territory SUCKS.
>>582366356Enjoy permanent root
>>582366350Vlad actually receives more AI buffs than any other faction in Total War.
fuck me i forgot about this horseshit
im a fucking idiot so give me a 10 turn tl;dr for boris
I just donated $100 to my oshi, LL for this feeling?
THANQUIL ANON WHER EU AT how are u enjoying thanquil
>>582356760You'll have to use halberdier or greatswords to kill them, they're not for Boris to fight sadly even with cycle charging.

>>582349452>I genuinely don't understand the empire wank from ca in wh3They are trying to make money, and Empire is a cash cow. It really is that simple. You now understand the empire wank from ca in wh3.
>>582366838Dachala
I played Volkmar and destroyed Nagash's faction all without fighting Nagash. He was stuck in war with Skarbrand and must have gotten defeated while I took all his territory. That guy weak.
look at her making a cute pouty face!she really thinks she is looking scary!
>>582368267Deh!
>>582339096My campaign on max battle/campaign difficulty has been easy so far. Although I made a safety neck or factions that love me because for some reason this patch trading them one settlement makes them love you. Hilarious that the one Britonion chick loves Nagash
>>582368267she wants to take a fat shit
>>582351667>>582351423New Province(s) also it seems.
>>582368403In my mouth
Barely affording 3 armies. Such is the economy of Nagash.
Wait a minute, how long has that Bloodbowl Arena been in Averheim?
how come some battles don't give any necromantic energy?
>Back to TWWH after 2 years>Play Nagash>Quit since his economy is so shit you can only afford skeleton swordsmen for the first 100 turns>Play skrolk>Quit because my two full stacks can't beat lizardmen tier 2 settlement with a garrison buildingDamn i suck mega dick.Maybe Sayl will be easier......

>>582368553>Nagash is pretty much an army by himselfHe can lose to strong melee heroes.
>>582366290I disliked Attila because of how anti-fun it was.
>>582368504Forever.
>>582341329Not to be a plonker, but could someone confirm if they are also getting this bug?
>>582368553>Needs to be in the same or adjacent province to a necropolisthat's fucking stupid since you can't even turn every province into a necropolis without penalties
nagash is the best campaign in years. thank fuck CA remembered how to use pacing and restraint instead of just letting you snowball to god level in 30 turns
Nagash just doesnt get garrisons huh
>>582368602sounds like you didn't play Norsemen while listening to Wardruna during battles, which is the correct way to play Attila.
>>582362716>Neffy prepares to molest the Squire
>>582368840The best form of garrison is your main army inside of your enemy's capital city.
>>582368631When was forever?
>>582369098in the past
:OOOO
>>582368992Wow anon fucking crazy tactics.Painting a map in a total war game, thanks for the tip
*autoresolves*
>>582369140Past what?
Neat
>>582369292now
BROS I'M FINALLY GOOD AT THE GAMEI KEEP GETTING HEROIC VICTORIES WITH NAGASH
>>582369393Like right now?
>>582366290I like Attila. WRE is still one of the most kino campaigns in Total War bro.And Tamurkhan is ASS, exactly because they went overboard with his heroes. He's like pay to win and I see no fun in that.
>>582359634>Implying GW even knows about anything in the region other than Russia or Poland

>>582369787>PolandPushing it. I'm convinced they only put the hussars in there because of that shit Sabaton song, everything else is Russia, known for the motherland, labor camps and bears, bears, bears and ice, and last but not least: bears_____________.
its fucking turn 2 why the fuck does he have so many units what the fuck
Is it me or can you not get Gotrek and Felix on Boris?
>>582370124xmfd get owned stupid fucking vampire.
>>582370097But we just went past the future.
>>582369940Sounds great, russian stuff is lame anyway.Maybe they should add Polish-looking LL, base it on one of the Polish kings. They could also make infantrymen unit with fucking scythes. Imagine how sick is that.
>>582370124Master of undeath
>>582370340true would be cool
>>582369940Poland known for, uh, plumbing. And The Witcher. Also crime I guess, but the middle eastern browns are way fucking worse so newer generations don't even know any jokes about Poles.
>>582370124Just take out the lord with your vampires and his army will disintegrate when they hit 80% hp
>>582370107Lmao, the most famous bear in history is a Polish bear.And if we talk about history, the whole "russian bear" thing was used as a satire of russia (big, but clumsy and stupid)russia never had bears in their heraldry, or bear-related anything pretty much.
why does this goat have 1.4k weapon strength
>>582370714Because he hates (you) and wants to raa roo your waifu after raa rooing you.
looks good. just need some province-swaps with karl.My Elspi did good aswell.having a look into Nefarata now
>off in araby >settra sieges black pyramids >insta lose campaign because nagash left 4 skeletons to garrison it is he a retard?
>>582370551poles are based asf, developing their country without importing mass browns like the rest of the EU, and they will soon overtake germany in standard of life since that shit is collapsing anyways, meanwhile they have a super strong military too so germs and ruzzians can't touch them anymore either, definitely one of the most based countries currently in all of europe
>>582370714Goats are well known for their skills in battle
>>582370846also they have some of the lowest crime in all forms in europe and the safest major cities too probably, that crime nonsense is a stereotype from 2000 and no longer reality
>>582370846>developing their country without importing mass browns like the rest of the EUYou mean Germany developing their country. Poland would be a Romania tier shithole without the entirety of the EU pumping money into it to prop it up as a meatshield against Russia. The rest of your post is so insanely delusional I'm not even going to engage with it. You Poles are genuinely some of the most insufferable people of all time.
>>582370551Yes, these days everyone jokes about russians. And drones. Most famous comedic duo of 21st century.I bet you wish you had something as culturally impactful as The Witcher, Ivan, don't you.
>>582371054this is cope bs, they got there with hard work, EU gains 10x more than it loses from the cheap skilled and civilized labor it exploited from poland and the rest of eastern europe during the 00s, their development funds and what not are a pittance in comparison
>turn 30ish as Tod>Vampires have claimed entirety of eastern empire, alongside orcs.>Reikland is a thin strip of settlements>Nuln is cut off via several provinces and is barely alive>Moulder has destroyed Kislev and pushed past Ostermark>Own about two provinces due to constant bullshit of skirmishes with beastmen and numerous wars>All end game challenges have been enabled and will probably start turn 80Reset?
>>582370124Big mistake moshpitting your guys, would have been best if you just use all your single entities to snipe their weak-ass necromancer and then occasionally cycle charged with the knights. If you lose your army Vlad will die, but Vlad + Wife here should basically be able to solo the entire stack of shit that you're fighting
>>582371390i tried to do like proper formations, but when the entire fucking population showed up i panicked and just tried to zerg the lord down since i assumed the army would fall but i got swarmed too fasti spent about 10 minutes watching vlad kill half the army by himself but the fucking stack was so big he couldnt move the entire time while the enemy lord just fucked off to narnia, and eventually i died but vlad killed about 2500 units i still have no clue what im doing, i just wasnt expecting that to be the first fucking battle

Kemmlar should have a choice to ditch Nagash for Chaos which is what he did in ET
How is the lore of Undeath vs lore of Vampires? There seems to be some overlap and at first look it seems like the healing spell might be better since it heals vigor. The soul stealer spell seems interesting too.
>>582372273Thanquol is based, fun campaign
>>582365224Ulric says gunpowder is for pussiesSame for crossbows and helmets.A lore-accurate Ulrican army should only have Huntsmen and Archers for its ranged components.
Whats a good generic empire army comp?
>>5823724571 karl franz
Any clever ways to earn warp stone? I'm trying to build the canon and just sitting here hitting end turn waiting for sneak steal schemes to finish.
>>582366290I fucking love Attila, the difficulty on the strategic map is part of what made it just so engaging and memorable.Just started a Hunnic campaign yesterday to see what it's like on the other side. Being a perma-horde feels weird compared to Rome or the Germans. I have no real destination to reach or territory to defend, so I'm just chasing after the side-objectives for each chapter like a whole faction of murderhobos
>>582369347>m-merely a s-setbackKek what a bitch!
>>582370631Russia being associated with bears is entirely due to US pop culture which despite how you might feel, has far more impact on the world than any facts.
>>582366350i dont believe i ever saw empire do anything in tww3
>>582372378No such thing as a bad skaven campaign.
Ow
How the fuck do I use chariots?Do I click past the enemy or literally have to micro them so the moment they make content after clicking, I have to the nclick past the enemy to go through themThe fuck do you do with them when the enemy is in melee already since it'll be like 2 rows thick at most so you can barely hit them
>>582372457Outriders, war wagons, artillery
>>582372956r*ctus
Im playing Thanquol and he is very easy because he starts with a cannon that two shots every dwarf unit you face
:D
>>582370815Kislev never survives when I play in the Empire
Boris Todbringer has a melee line skill that gives him +12 leadership.The problem: Boris Todbringer gets Unbreakable in his unique skill line.They did actually fix this for Karl Franz a few years ago and changed the leadership buff to something more useful.
>>582371649Vlad's first battles are pretty rough until you learn how strong he and Izzy are. Then it becomes a cake walk of abusing the fact that most of the enemy units can't touch you and when they're moshed up your Blood Knights and Black Chariot can cycle charge over and over again. Vargheists too but they're a bit harder to use.
>>582373085Use them like cars and run over low mass infantry. Their damage come from charging so you have to micro them.
>>582373085all cavalry is the same you engage and disengage immediately, the point is to use charge bonus damage
>>582372347Haven't used it yet but without the zombie summon it's probably worse than lore of vamps but it looks pretty good, hand of dust with the lore passive looks like it could be pretty strong just spamming that endlessly.
>>582370551https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcYhYO02f98&list=RDrcYhYO02f98&start_radio=1I wish they resurect Katarin's Gryphon Legion brother
>>582373342You will take ma and md skills like everyone else so it literally doesnt matter.
Sigmarites might not like it, but this is what the perfect Empire 20 stack looks like.
>>582371339yeah
>>582371649>proper formations On VCThat's not the best idea, until you get higher tier units you actually just have trash so you're best off blobbing with heroes and flanking
>>582373249>turn 108>only 5 necropolises>only 3 books of nagashnigga what the fuck
>>582372347Healing spell is slightly better especially for zombie/skelly spam armies.Soul Stealer is better for dealing with hero spam armies like greenskins.The Vortex spell is good but not amazing.The Wind spell is great for annihilating elves but WoD does it better against most armies.Zombie Dragon is the real game changer but needs magical support or else you can't really cast it.Lore of Vamps is still better in most cases, but if you're building for a specific spell instead of all of the spells, lore of Undeath can fill specific niches better.>>582371649I forgot to mention, Vamps have instant recruitment so you can get more skellies or zombies on turn one before the attack.
>>582373529Can Crossbowmen even compete with rifles?
THE WORLD IS ENDINGTHOUGH FEW BELIEVE IT
help i cant stop auto resolving and i think its kind of ruining my campaignsi usually have a rule of only auto resolving sieges because i just can't fucking stand them but it inevitably spills over in to just resolving everything else especially as WoC since the units are so good in auto
>>582373724Not enough movement points and economy to send anyone on fetch quests. Archaon popped up just when I stabilized.
are you allowed to fight archaon at 90% ward save? or does it have to go down further than that
>>582373804Crossbows have worse dps against armour but being able to shoot over the frontline is huge.If ever you play Elspeth then her rifleman can become incredibly powerful.
>ratling gun stormfiends keep shooting my unitsThey finally made a unit that ignores friendly fire?
>>582373857Check your settings.The game defaults to giving the player an auto resolve bonus even though it says no bonus and penalties.If you turn the difficulty up by one it will still say non bonuses or penalties but now you won't have the auto resolve bonus. This will force you take more fights manually to avoid losses.

>>582373081>Tomb Kings lordIs there a reason to nerf yourself like that?
>>582374342there was no crime, millions of poles provided western europe with highly skilled n educated labor that worked for min wage while there were practically 0 incidents during that time, now that the poles have found their footing, came back to their country and started investing it and western EU has to import somalis or whatever in a pale attempt to relive their glory days, that's their problem, and it's one of the safest countries in europe by far so this "poles do crime" thing is nonsensebut I digress...
what fun
>>582370107Honestly to the outsider the Polish and Russians have the same shit. Googling Polish Musketeer and a lot of the results are literally bardiche and musket guys with the same stuff. Just swap the terminology and you'd be fine.
>>582373342Well, there are only 50 points to assign and you spend a lot on the upkeep reduction.>>582373529>Bothering with ranged units when you can get Panther and Ulric cav

>>582373508Crazy how Poles successfully gaslit people who don't know shit about history, into believing that it was unironically them, and only them, who drove back the Ottomans. The other members of the Holy League never get any mentions, neither do the brave citizens of Vienna who successfully defended against the mudshits for 2 months. Poles genuinely believe their Winged Hussars were the only Christian forces present.
as Thanquol should I be spamming undercities or what
am i retarde
>>582375556congrats to the vienese for fighting for their life as if they could do anything elseit was mainly the poles that rode out of their homes to stop mordor in foreign lands

>>582376438Shut up tard
Nagash is just daniel but with worse units
I'm late to the party. If I buy nagash do I get his units when I play tomb kings too?
>>582376413This Boris looked so much better.
>>582366535I believe it, no way are battles consistently autoresolved in Sylvania's favor when it's AI vs AI without the devs putting their thumb on the scale.
>>582362062Most of the spells are useful and strong, there’s just no obviously overpowered nuke spells. Abyssal swarm probably has some of the best vortex animations and at least seems to stay in a consistent spot, I’ve found a ton of use out of soulstealer to exhaust enemy lords or enemy front lines to make my infantry run through them, the heal is great, zombie dragon summon is good, the knight charge one seems disappointingly weak, and the weapon spell seems almost useless.>>582361240I don’t know why Tomb Kings are the only undead faction with no recruit or upkeep cost, recruit cost could maybe be justified for the other factions (sacrificing some necromancies energy or whatever to summon the units) but why do they need upkeep at all? What do they eat? What do they spend their paychecks on?
>>582376115it's a little thing called the VANGUARDit does 90% of the workthe other men follow in awe
>>582376438such is the power of Nagash
>>582376482>1/75
>>582376575>I don’t know why Tomb Kings are the only undead faction with no recruit or upkeep cost, recruit cost could maybe be justified for the other factions (sacrificing some necromancies energy or whatever to summon the units) but why do they need upkeep at all? What do they eat? What do they spend their paychecks on?Its dark magic that upkeeps Vamp units and it can be assumed it keeps the magical energies that keep the undead animated active. Kang units aren't mindless undead like the zombies and skelemen of the counts.
>>582376537You get the giant robot scarab.
>Mitch, stop trying to make Emperor Vlad happen. It's not going to happen.
>>582376575As >>582376680 said.In lore (and in tabletop) if the necromancers or caster vampires who maintain the undead army stop maintaining their magic (or die) the entire army just crumbles to dust instantly.That's why weaker vampires have loads of necromancers to maintain their armies.
>>582376807It is a shame that Vlad doesn't have a unique mechanic.
>>582376868He has a hot wife who hot wifes
>>582376565Remember when the AI would regularly use Gotrek so Vlad would have Unbreakable every campaign?Good times.
>>582376689Anything else? I know there are flag bearers and shit too that are clear tomb king looking units.
>boris is a fucking murder machine that will take the entire north and better part of the east empire territory if you let him>elspeth is a brick wall that will eventually gobble up everything south east of the empireas Franz i literally have nothing to do lmao. very boring desu. i pretty much only had enemies in bretonnian territory even though grom got genocided by luoen. skaven are also getting rocked by him so i guess i just need to confed and prepare for archaons end time thing?
>>582377035You get the tomb herald and high priest lords too
>>582375556Yeah ? Maybe next time if you want to be remembered 400 years later just put wing on your saddle ?
I'd appreciate if Nagash & Cunts had a way of increasing the number of regions can be held by a faction they're trying to confederate. Right now the cap is 5 regions, which means that unless they're backed into a corner by the time you fulfill the criteria for confederating them, you're just not gonna be able to at all.
in the Lore do the tomb kings ever invade the empire or ulthuan or something crazy like that?
>>582374598why arent they shooting
>>582375967
>>582377357Not really there's an ongoing war with the dwarfs tho
>>582338259"Thanqoul soon, friends" anon, your watch has ended. Rest easy.
>>582377091Never thought I'd see the day karl had it easy.
>>582377357Kind of. There are random stories about Tomb Kings randomly waking up and being confused about how they're pretty sure Bretonnia, the Empire, or Elflands are actually TK lands.They don't get much lore, as it's just to justify why those armies would fight TKs.
>>582376868https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYlkgMz5k5M
>>582377163Cool. I shall buy the mini tomb kings DLC then
>>582376153COPE.
>>582377647>krolowo loduThis shit sounds like some Pygmy character.
>kill mannfred>subjucate him>takes like 5 turns to come back>have to wait 3 more turns to respect him
>>582377357
>>582377357I think a reiklander stole a goblet from a kang centuries ago, and when the kang finally woke up he went all the way to ubersreik to tear it the fuck down and get his cup back
Why didn't GW just rename everything to Ukrainian? Call it Kyislev.
>>582376153>NOOOOOO YOU CAN'T SEND ME BACK FROM THE TURK COLONY TO THE SAFEST COUNTRY IN THE EU WITH A GROWING ECONOMY AND NO BROWN PEOPLE NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ANYTHIN BUT THAT
>>582377357Averland is responsible for ~1,500 years of hostilities between man and mummy.
Kislev and Cathay are such shit factions. Everyone else feels like they belong in the setting, but then you have the 2 "MAGICAL LANDS RULED BY DRAGONS AND ICE GIRLBOSSES"
>>582377754>ignore mannfred>he takes over huge amounts of shit and is your allyNagash is funny.
>>582377357Arkhan and Khalida teamed up at one point to invade Sylvania.
>>582377856Poland's economic growth is about as natural as Israel's military dominance in the Middle East.
i'm only looking forward to 40k for the sob coomer mods
i actually cant win a fight even on easy, ive got a long fucking road ahead holy shit, maybe i just need to play something fucking basic i cant fuck up because early game skaven i just cant figure out, my warp fire thrower just never fucking shoot anything and everyone just pushes through my wall of clanrats into them anywaysaside from losing every fight and putting 100's of hours into the game to finally figure it out after losing 50 campaigns in the first few turns any videos our guides you guys would actually recommend, my brain just genuinely doesnt understand how to fucking play and its tilting because theres so much i should love about this game but i cannot fucking understand how to make combat work
>>582378048>less than 4% of the economypff, that's silly anyways let's not get too off topic
>>582377357there was one time when Settra woke up because some n*rscanniggers stole some of his stuff, so he got a massive KANG fleet, sailed up to n*rsca and began burning and pillaging everything in his wake before getting his shit back and going homeKangs are usually alright with sitting around in their desert unless you take their shit
Should I be worried?
Hopechads... we won, 9.0 is great. /twg/ is thriving.
>>582377727
>>582377363okay i dont even give a fuck to reloadthis is absolute cancer and the worst part of the game by far
>>582378290>Couldn't break 90kccuoh no no no no no no no no no look at the top of his head
>>582377357>goes to bed>wakes up in a strange place>goes on a killing spree>returns to bed
>>582378078>Not firingThat is a problem with a lot of ranged units for new players.Skirmish mode is on by default (unless you change it in the settings).As a result, any time anything even looks at your ranged units, they run away to reposition instead of opening fire and killing it.It's a really stupid system that exists because it would allow your archers to fall behind your spears automatically, but due to how units are in Warhammer, the archers still feel threatened even when behind spears, so it ends up cucking you.Even worse when using shorter ranged weapons like warpfire throwers.I'd just look up beginners guides, specifically ones focused on Cathay or High Elves because they're the easier factions to learn/play.
>>582378236CA should make AI Surtha Ek only use chariot mount.
>>582378365>The intolerant>Blinding hatred towards the Fr*nchHe's... he's just like me...
>>582378151That 4% of the economy is one package, you've been receiving them since 2004. You're not any better than any of the other slav shitholes, except you've been receiving Ethopia-tier help from the civilized world.
what do you mean I have to pay my tomb kings as nagash? those dudes work FOR FREE for everyone else
Winnable ?
>>582378078try to simplify things as much as possible.1: have a big wall of clanrat spears2: caster lord to nuke blobs and summon rats3: 1 or 2 damage dealing units to micro into perfect position to kill the enemyso really all you should do is keep your spears in a big block and not really worry about them after that, check in with your lord when spells are off cooldown, and spend most of your time getting your damage dealing win condition units (globes, guns, etc) into position
>>582378418>Surtha EkThat reminds me, do any old LLs get a special trait from defeating the new lords, the way Settra gets one for defeating Surtha Ek?
>>582378523pray
>>582378523>Purple mortars>No menace belowEasy.
>>582362062Its' lore of Nehekara ++, it's there for your passive half Nehek half Death sustain. It's probably aggressively mid on everyone that isn't Nagash but it's solid.>>582376575Tomb Kings are self-animating, unlike other undead. I think Vampirates are just greedy fags
>>582378534There was only 3 non-LL unique lords in the game IIRC. Surtha, the TWW1 bird I can't remember the name of, and Boris. And Boris is a real LL now, so it's only two.
>Turin: teutogens are just shitlolso much for them being broken OP needing nerfs
>>582378365Also he looks rad and has a net worth that could make dwarven kings turn green with envy.
>>582377163High Priest and Tomb Herald are FLC though right?>>582377091Marienberg and then you try to shore up defenses or deal with the French/Empire threats as you help out. Just give land back to the electors to get a paycheck. This is actually really nice for Franz since he gets to go directly after all the strong ports in the area.
>>582378803MPGAWDS have spoken. Maybe SPcels will get a sliver of of fun after all.
>>582378803They are insane if you play as Boris Todbringer.
>>582378483most slavic countries are thriving these days actually, when the west collapses in a sea of migrants and shit they'll be the places germans and french crawl to, you can bet your assbesides like I said, the value that eastern europe provided throughout the 00s when it was eastern euros working in the west causing 0 issues at all and calmly going back to their countries is in the excess of a trillion, not just a few bil in investment
>>582378390should i just have my ranged on fire at will? i mean that also sounds like the more skaven tactic anyways
>>582378803>Tur-
>>582377363How are they going to aim their rat-sized minigun down anon?
>>582378918Fire at will is usually easiest.Controlling your fire is when you're more comfortable micro-ing your units.
>>582378856Looks like a brettonian to me!
Which came first chronologically between Cathay and Nehekhara? You'd think Nehekhara but GW really wanted the chink brownie points so who knows.
friggin cheats. first i had to beat off Bohemond
Is doing domination quick matches painful?
>>582378309Gunners need los anon
>>582378856>here's that brettonian duke I was telling you about
>>582378803does anybody here who has a late game campaign with boris in progress have a maxed out teutogen unit? i bet they can get insanse stats with all the tech and such
>>582377363Only archers can consistently shoot off of ramps due to how Line of Effect is programmed.When setting up on a hill for example you want your units slightly down the hill so they're pointed downwards at things coming up.>>582379134IIRC they recently put out lore that says Nehekharans were like "woah!" because Cathay had guns by the time the first pyramids were built.
>>582378698Don't forget the Red Duke
>>582379281Isn't he a real Lord now? Haven't played Vamps yet.
>>582378523Very if you can tie up their monsters in melee, Stormvermin fold pretty fast without army buffs and Ulric priests are fairly OP. Going to be hard to deal with plagueclaw since you have absolutely no fast units
>>582379240>they recently put out lore that says Nehekharans were like "woah!" because Cathay had guns by the time the first pyramids were built.
and a dogshot garrison. but we can play now. where do you place you first Maid? and do we upgrade her at first with 2x tech, yes or
>>582379212With technology and everything else yes they're pretty absurd but Empire has probably the worst tech research in the game so you aren't going to get crazy dividends early. There's a lot of ways to get permanent recruitment buffs too and with Tod's furbro they're almost the best infantry in the game
>spirit host with frenzyAre they a good unit?
>>582379240>they recently put out lore that says Nehekharans were like "woah!" because Cathay had guns by the time the first pyramids were builtI'm gonna need a source for this
>>582379319He can be confederated via the tech tree, and he has unique skills and a uniquely mixed unit selection, plus he has unique diplomacy lines, but his faction is still not playable in campaign without modds.
>>582378523what the FUCK is that crop
>>582379240>>582379509>Chink Emperor and Chinks had trade networks all the way back when but were busy twiddling their dicks while Nagash nearly destroyed the world>Haven't significantly progressed in terms of technology since the Tomb Kings became undead Whew
>>582379561They seemed quite trash when I fought them in a Volkmar campaign.
You get points WAY too slowly with Nagashs tree.
>>582377421
>>582379529Ach du meine Güte! Es ist Neferata von der Lahmianischen Schwesternschaft, bekannt aus Film und Fernsehen!
what vampire count should i play as a first time vamp player
>>582379818Vlad/Isabella
>>582379529Upgrade her with the tech.Send her to Altdorf, Couronne, or Sylvania, depending on how you want to play diplomatically.
>>582379818Vlad
>>582379035they never shot once neither down nor straight ahead, ramps are fucking useless
>>582379212Late game everything can get silly stats and it doesnt matter whatsoever. Melee infantry only matters early on, and early on they are shit
>>582379902>>582379917guess im gonna rape elspeth
>>582379670Flavorful as IRL imperial china also was pretty stagnant in technological developement
>>582379968Vlad is devoted to his wife.
>>582379980And the Ancient Egyptians were known to be quite good friends with them.
>>582379818Vlad/Izzy is the easiest assuming you don't piss off the dwarfs too early and don't mind hero spam armies.
I like starting kind of near wurzag to rush his defeat trait but not THAT near him god damn. Skarbrand is like the perfect distance from Wurzag I wish I could trade starting positions with him
>>582380016dw homie she'll be in her cuck throne watching
>>582379134Considering TOW lore as canon or not ?
>>582379240>IIRC they recently put out lore that says Nehekharans were like "woah!" because Cathay had guns by the time the first pyramids were built.Impressive.With this most recent achievement, fate has in a single stroke, marked the decline of the west and spelled a new era of wondrous prosperity and peaceful global dominance for the Chinese dragon, which promises to firmly stand in sharp contrast to the historically bloody ascent of western powers and the cruel subjugation it brought to the humbler nations of the world. With the blessings of Chinese quantum direct-current electricity, quantum aircraft carriers and quantum enhanced railguns will be the instruments with which China affirms its noble stewardship of 21st century world politics and offers the non-western world a different option; an humanist alternative to the depredations of Western leadership and the opportunity for a more equitable and dignified multilateralism.
>>582379670I wouldn't mind if they actually rolled with that and made Cathay canonically technologically stagnant.Their leadership is a bunch of nigh-immortal dragon demigods, you could have them be both wary of any fast-paced tech development (fast-paced being anything that takes less than 500 years) and also wary of anything which gives the Cathayan peasantry the ability to challenge their power.
>Neferata>Fun but the fucking micromanagement of covens is boring as hell>Thanquol>Fun but the fucking micromanagement of skaven undercities is boring as hellFUCK
>>582379134Cathay existing before Nehekara makes sense considering its ruled by Dragons, but the idea they had guns when they first met Nehekarans is a bit much
>>582379798kek>>582379909yeah fuck zharr-naggrund. i´m stacking corpses and train a bit against those orcs and bretons
>>582379968you wanna be sure to suck off Ungrim as much as possible early game giving him mountain territory and joining his wars because he WILL war dec you eventually but you can atleast delay it late enough that you have units that can survive the Slayertide
thanquol is hard for me because I mostly play khornate factions or wc and I point at shit and they die, this slayer midget is making my life miserable
The Lahmian voicelines make me rock hard. Shame the lord is kinda meh spells wise.
so only the province you cast the ritual in count for this and not the ones that border that province that get marked as land of the dead? is that right?
>sit on bridge>get attacked>no bridge battle
>>582380491>yeah fuck zharr-naggrund. i´m stacking corpses and train a bit against those orcs and bretonsI declared on Azgaroth first, was a massive pain in the balls, lost the majority of my shit stack armies about 4 times before I finally wiped out the Chorfs.Everyone loved me for it except Norsca though, so it bought me some peace time to reorganize before I needed to kill Arbaal and then Grimgor.
>>582379561Better than all the other bad infantry you can use yeah.
>>582380582dont use the cannon on any slayer units, they have an ability that makes their models not get one shot
>>582379571Still waiting on that source.
>>582379980>>582380030>>582380280I myself don't mind but I think it clashes with the China-wank, like they can't pick a side between historical allusions and "Muh cool Cathayans never did nothing wrong"
Is Empire the weakest race?
>wake up>check my beloved /twg/>anons shitting all over niggash campaignIt's so lovely to see. What a wonderful start into the day.
>>582379571>>582380845It was in the Arcane Journals, Armies of Grand Cathay.https://www.reddit.com/r/WarhammerFantasy/comments/1lgtc5b/new_cathay_lore/Here are redditors talking loosely about it.
>>582378587Ar-Ulric isn't helping much (he is lvl 2).>>582378593My canons and Mortars are doing shit against their Stormfiends but as soon as they are in range their Stormfiends(mortar) destroy my line in 2 or 3 salvo ....>>582379324The Grey Seer, the Warlock, the ratling gun and the mortars are the ones killing my men.>>582379641I'm retarded.
>>582381148I love you too, fuck nagash but I haven't played him yet, I'm going south with archaon right now,step at the black pyramid and destroy it before marching to middenheim
>>582377357this happened like 10 years before magnus the pious ascended the throne
>>582379571>>582380845NTA but I think the story about Nehekharan buying guns from Cathay is in the Legend of Nagash books (Nagash don't know about them and he lose).
>>582381265Yeah unfortunately you need faster uniters to deal with weapons teams somehow.>Al-Ulric not in Boris's armyAnon... why have you done this?
>>582381265>I'm retardedErzähl uns was Neues.
>>582381302I haven't played at all since the patch.I've got a better idea for when you run by him. Leave him nothing but the black pyramid and turn him into a sack city.
Really loving the zombie techs. That extra healing cap and physical resistance just lets these goofy fucks stand around for ages before they inevitably get mulched by whatever unit they were meant to keep busy while my vamps did all the important work.Also holy shit why does the Necrarch just get to summon skelly units with 425 entities a pop for free three times.
Man
>>582381148I am waiitng for reddit to turn against it. That's gonna be fun to see and then CA will overcompensate and make him OP.
>>582381628Did you get any dead risings?
>>582381675Lost nothing :DDDDDDD

>>582381958No
>>582381628Hah, get fucked.>>582381663I don't go there often but whenever I did it seems most of reddit is empire sissies so they should love playing a weak faction.
Another fucking army these cunts popped out of nowhere.
>>582381958Nagash? Yes. His faction? Remains to be seen.
>>582381861Nagash was strong
>>582381628What % of your income was this army?
>>582382112>>582382072Nagash will be weak.
>>582381663>>582381958Hes pretty OP and just solo doomstacks the whole game.But the YOU CAN RECRUIT ANYONE is so fucking flawed and restricted.On turn 50 and my personal annoyances>You functionally dont have garrisons, kinda balanced by you not needing to build 99% of your towns but with the entire world including every goddamn rogue army since all of your big towns have negative diplomacy penalties you will be playing wack a mole on your territories a lot>You get points for his tech tree WAY too slow. Honestly few of them feel really strong, it just feels like a normal research tree for most of it>Why the unit caps? By the time you can recruit most shit you are near infinite on his secondary resource anyway>Not like you could pay for these expensive units anyway since hes got dogshit econ until you get a million towns to stack the bonuses >The books feel like they do nothing outside RNG spells for nagash, the bonuses on them are awful>So many lord/hero skills dont do anything for the combined armies>A bunch of the tomb kings units cant be healed for some reasonI guess you get to powerfantasy with Nagash soloing armies but everything else kinda sucks
>>582380829even if they don't get oneshot they still take max damage so even a slave can deal the finishing blow right? And I might as well use the canon for something, the guy only recruits slayers anyway. He's probably the best target for it.I'm playing on VH/VH and the last time I played skaven was when ikit came out, I don't know what the fuck I'm doing, I mostly play melee factions even though Ikit and Noctilus were a breezeI think I pretty much know what I want to do though, I should be more aggressive, it's not that I'm losing the campaign, it's more like I run into inconveniences for dumb mistakes but somehow it's fine
>>582382002Who said thatIs something wrong with my mods I don't see anybody in the porthole.
>>582382574>Even a slave can deal the finishing blowIt's a bit difficult there since a 1HP slayer model may as well be a max hp slayer model to slaves, even slingers because slayers are fast and have missile block. You're best off killing more threatening dwarf units or their lord if you can and using more consistent dps on slayers unless you don't have better targets imo
I don't know why people think nagash would be richdead people aren't rich

>>582382427just seems to be the CA method for all newer released stuff that the intended game path is to just be one single army for the entire short victory and half of the long one because games journos cannot manage two or more armies at once

Swore I saw someone say province wise make it 1 gold and rest energy or 1 energy rest gold.Hard/hard, maybe up to very hard, but chaos invasion at turn 150-200 so I'm not bushwhacked by it while I am failure to launch, given I take awhile to get going campaign wise.

>>582383001obviously, most of us here do but that's not the CA intended path hence why they don't care about kneecapping eco consistently, because the journalists and "content creators" don't build multiple armies early enough anyways
>>582383307I know who you're talking about but I don't think I know what happened? Something about Israel, I heard about that on the radio. And I also can't spell his name because of Archaon, The eye of Ed Sheerian guides me. I just want to take Archaon to fight these new "Lords of the End Times" wannabes and see who comes out on top.
>>582383697>most of us here doAnd here I was, thinking I was being smart...

>>582384771>it doesn't do anythingIt gives you another lord which levels alongside you, as well as another strong combatant. Once he's high level enough you give him an army and then send him to wherever he's needed. The impact on the economy is really not that bad.
>>582384771The fuck are you talking about.Lord Stinkybottom the Necromancer I recruited immediately, he inherited the trash units as Neferata no longer needed them, and now is murdering skaven with his own army while she's retaking Lahmia.Getting those extra spells and effects early was huuuge.
>>582384771Fuck off animeposter. You are as annoying as you are stupid, stop shitting up /twg/.
>>582380228>Including not not including gang violence?
>>582384773Mhm, thanks for repeating my words.>>582384881I don't even know what that means. >>582384920You are so fucking bad at the game you have to bait the AI? Good lord.>>582383812>we autistsYou guys are fucking posers. I was diagnosed with autism and more. I am true autism. You people suck at total war.
>>582384920>it's a great way to bait ambush for startersThis too. Put your 2nd in command in forcemarch and have your main army be in force march, even if your ambush fails, you still get to reinforce him.
>>582385056You are so FUCKING retarded. Please stop posting here, fuck off you dumb cunt.
I love anime and fap to anime all the time, but this dude is making me feel embarrassed.
>nagash end game event>drop moon on nagashizzarget fucked bonething
for the love of god stop feeding the pass faghe gets off to verbal abuse
>>582383001I got a nice little tomb king lad on the first turn whose trait is he was always championing Nagash and now gets XP when nagash levels up.Such is the generosity of Nagash.
>>582385075*main army be in ambush stance
>>582385056>I was diagnosed with autism and moreif you don't get money from it there's no point for an official diagnosis
A lotta yall still don't get itA +1% On your upkleep for 2 armies is abslutely gonna fuck over your economy and you'll NEVER recover from it.>>582385056>>582384771>>582384416Is right you guys are not tacticians, you just don't get how a negligible upkeep cost will fuck you over.
>>582385507>line goes down for a millisecondIt's ogre. Time to restart the campaign.
Now I got em riled up.>>582384948Great, levels, really useful. All I need him to have is a few points in the red line. He levels himself via mentor.Recruiting him early means 0 benefit and 20 turns of less money.>>582384959Cool, you wasted tons of turns wasting money. Great job, retard. Could have leveled a necro hero instead.>>582385041Make me.>>582385192Awww, mad cause bad?>>582385425Well I do like knowing why I'm different and never get along with people. So there is that use in it.>>582385507Finally someone with brain.
>>582385634That +1000 gold you get from early victories? Well actually you're only gonna get 990 gold from that you fucking simpleton YOU DIDN'T THINK AT ALL
>>582385828Why do you post here when you're clearly not welcome, just... fuck off cunt
I only beat the game with my original stack
>>582385895Because moron niggerfaggots like you keep doing picrel to him.Like simple fucking morons you dance to his tune and make him happy.
>>582385041whats wrong with anime on the anime website>>582385895u all seem to be genuinely enjoy his company
>>582385895>using elipsis like a fucking Facebook boomer Pack it up
>>582386004I guess I'm just not so attention starved as him that my only recourse is to act like a drooling retard on /twg/ in order to provoke people
whats up with the white square bottom left of the screen?
>>582386271You're using a mod.
>>582386212>whats wrong with anime on the anime websiteNothing but that's one way of readily identifying the autistic retard in question on this genny
>>582386231But you're stupid enough to think limpwristed posts like >>582385895 are gonna do anything. Just don't reply to retarded posts that are clearly designed to piss you off.
NEW WHEN??????????
>>582386271Your GPU is dying. Sorry you fond out this way.
>>582386514>>582386354its on every screenshot in this thread
theres no point of being here after wegh and thanquolposter left
>>582385828Hey can you make the new OP?
Playing Archaon is the same shit as before, yeah sure you're strong, your only obstacle is Boris, either you take him out turn 5-6 or something or he's gonna be an ass, but what's the fucking end times update?
>>582386563We're all cheaters
>>582386563piece of shit game is unplayable without cheats
>>582385895What this >>582386004 anon said. >>582386212HUSBAND!!!I didn't expect you to post. <3
>>582386358i think he's kinda adorbs>>582386668heh hai lol
>>582386563Most people play with mods. I like keeping mine basic, I use the console commands in case something happens so I can fix it, and the one where you can recruit lords from fallen factions.
>>582386596No, I'm working and on phone. I mean I could but that's brutal.. not gonna happen.>>582386727HUSBAND meet total war general. They are mostly really stupid.
new >>582386798
>>582386823Oh, well thanks anyway.
>>582344209That’s exactly what the other anon meant. Ancient prior to getting its three nerf bats wasn’t even that busted. It was really good, but in the faction where the good units are supposed to be the dinos that shouldn’t have been surprising. And that’s just one unit that MPfags had fucked into the ground of being completely unusable.
>>582385047
>>582383198Is Archaon any fun to play?
>>582384771If you aren't playing a spellcaster, recruiting a spellcasting lord is a big boost to your army though
cmon now
Play as Karl: Vlad is nigh unkillable and can take down half of my army by himself.Play as Arbaal: Vlad gets crushed by Chaos Warriors of Khorne and a Cultist of Khorne.Recommendation: Ally with Arbaal, build an outpost, and then recruit his Chaos Warriors of Khorne.
Wow!Repanse is much worse now!
>>582386665It's kinda crazy how many campaigns in this game are entirely reliant on good RNG so you can actually start the game, and how they'll never get fixed because they belong to factions that don't sell minis.
