Reposting in new threadSo. I feel guilty about playing total warhammer for one reason. I end up just playing it like Civ and auto-resolving most battles instead of doing more manual fights.I feel bad because I feel like I'm ignoring a core part of Total War for the sake of just getting on with my campaign goals. Plus I'm not the best at RTS so I don't want to go into a "Decisive Victory" and somehow miss the ai doing something and fucking up my shit.That or I play it constantly in slow mo mode so I can react to anything bad.
I have no idea what units or army comp to go for as Nagash, all these options are overwhelming
Friendly reminder that if you don't save Tyrion, Katarin, Louen, and Thorgrim from their inevitable demise then you did NOT play a real Karl campaign.
I'mma moshpit
is it just me or is todd's mechanic hard as fuck?even if you try to keep the forest danger low by immediately killing the lone army that spawns, sometimes it just goes up for no reason and like 5 or 6 full stacks of elite troops spawn close to your capitalno one answered me in the previous thread
>>582435890It's impossible to save Thorgrim even if you set out for his province on turn 1
>>582435890>Tyrionnot an imperial>Katarinnot an imperial>Louennot an imperial>Thorgrimnot an imperialKarl belongs the the EMPIRE, he's supposed to save Balthasar, Markus, Volkmar, Elspeth and Boris
>>582436093Kislev is our honorary strategic ally the empire pumps with resources to keep chaos out of actually important places.
>>582435603I find it strange that Empire now has 5 different Cav choices in tier 3.
>>582436085>not trying anywayNot a true Karl enjoyer.>>582436093Karl is poweroffriendshippilled. He wouldn't leave his bros in the dust. I bet you kill Laurelorn instead of allying them too. Despicable.
>Kislev>our ally
>>582436217Don’t they have 4? >Reiksguard, Knights of Mor, Knights of the Sun and the new Ulric onesAlso Jesus Christ I’d never noticed how high the Knights of the Sun’s Charge stat is.
>>582435848>Early gameFrontline doesn’t really matter, any cheap trash will do but spears are generally better if you can spare the caps, and spirit hosts are also surprisingly good. Rush black knights or use tomb king chariots, get some crypt ghouls or horrors for extra damage, and then a couple of mortars.>Mid gameReplace the frontline with grave guard or tomb guards, black knights are cav support, keep the mortars unless you gain access to a casket of souls, if you teched into skelly archers their techs can make them pretty strong, otherwise your probably just better off getting more monsters, I don’t think investing in any gunpowder coast units is worth it aside from their artillery>Late gameMonster spam; necrofex, necrosphynx, Khemric titans, blood knights, all the tier 5 shit wrecker units.
>get these guys for the first time in my armies>they get wrecked by dogs and batstier III unit btw, is there something wrong here or this is just a bad unit?
>>582436414Isn't Knights Panther also tier 3?At least if you get the landmark
>>582436356>>582436168>Karl is poweroffriendshippilled. He wouldn't leave his bros in the dust. I bet you kill Laurelorn instead of allying them too. Despicable.the empire needs to expand, at the cost of everyone else, including bretonnians and kislevites, when those regions are conquered, made part of the empire and fully imperialized culturally, we can talk about cooperation
>Almost 100kHEROIC HOPECHAD VICTORY
>>582436419I did notice Spirit hosts were much better than I expected and I have no idea how. You'd think with only 55% phys res, no armour and garbage melee stats they'd fold easily but they hold their own against (admittedly basic) cav
>>582436538No they're just terrible and always have been. Ranged version is even worse.
>>582436538They’re a flanking unit that can’t take direct direct damage well, you’re supposed to set them up after the front line has engaged behind the enemy to fire their missile weapon into their backs and then charge in, but I’ve never found them useful. Look cool though.
>>582436617One of the techs gives them frenzy. Probably others too.
>>582436579It won't happen.I'm sorry...
>>582436579that's not 100k
>>582435890>TyrionThe Donut always falls to Edgelords, Gooners, Pirates, or all 3>KatarinOh joy, time to burn my economy and make 1-2 armies to make my Icy Afghanistan not collapse the moment a nurgling poots near Kislev>LouenAlways get's bodied eventually by invading Norsemen or whoever conquers the donut>ThorgrimIf it's not Skarsnik or Gorebad, it's Clan Rictus or Mors. I end up saving Ungrim and just giving him Thorgrim's old lands.
So thematically what should I do for a Glottkin campaign? Take over the North and set an Archaon endgame timer for when I plan on invading the empire?
>>582436617100% ap, ignore phys res, decent ma for t1 chaff and have lots of models.
>>582436783It's already surpassed 40k.
>Karl Franz campaign ended on turn 24 with the gangbang from Festus, Vlad, Marienberg and Be’lakor pounding me from all sides (Boris and Elspeth died early, latter seems to possibly have been by the fucking Changeling from what I saw on save reloads)>Friend says choose another campaign based on last game I played that wasn’t Total Warhammer>Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy OriginBy the end of the game they’re literally called the Warriors of Chaos so seems like it’s time for my 50th Archaon campaign. How is he post-update?
>>582436617Yeah I don’t get it either, maybe it’s just the model count being so high? I find them to not only last well but surprisingly push back damage well too, outside of the obvious big dick units you get in your starting army for Nagash, the spirit hosts have been most reliable units in the early game. The mortar is the rockstar though, turns valiant defeats into clear victories.
>>582436728Is he ok?
I had steamy hot gay sex yesterday with a mexican man named Jesus.I had the best time of my life. I'm about to jerk off to the pictures of his gaping asshole now and then smoke a cigarette outside and sip on some cheap bourbon (Woodford Reserve, I love it).Such is the power of Nagash.
>>582436835I liked the story but the gameplay just felt like lobotomized Nioh 2 to me. Only being able to change weapons after skills instead of any type of attack sucks, and it's lame that there's no KI Pulse. If you liked the game for the gameplay, give Nioh 2 a try, it's way better.
>>582436554Yep you’re right they’re T3 too>Reiksguard and Knights of the Sun are generalist (latter’s stupidly high charge bonus and flame attacks make them ideal against undead)>Knights of Mor are anti-infantry>Knights Panther are anti-large >Ulric Knights are armor-piercingReminds me a bit of Bretonnia and the Dark Elves having different cavalry at the same time/ similar levels but for different situations.
>>582436728300 more CHADS joined since this post LMAOO
>>582436795Thematically unite Norsca, and then go take a big stinky on Altdorf while crushing every empire dog that gets in your way. It If I remember right they have a particular hatred for Nordland so make that place particularly stinky. Gobble up Festus in a confederation too while you’re at it.
Funny thing.. I nearly lost this battle. I dunno what happened but leadership dropped like crazy. My monsters ran, my mauraders were about to flee.. it was a mega impact out of nowhere. But I managed to recover and slaughter.
Fucking cheating ai
Who is the best rat?
what's the next playable imperial province?
>>582436787I don’t think I’ve seen a single campaign where Louen loses and doesn’t go on to conquer half of Norsca.
>>582437163Whichever is Kurt Helborg because the devs have namedropped him in their dev interviews.
>>582436795Here's what I did>conquered most of Norsca, focusing on an early Wulfrik for the quest, gave anything that's not a Black Fortress to my vassals>picked the question option that leads you to the Empire to Festus>confed him >keep gaping the EmpireHaven't played further than this.
>>582437152The dead one.
>>582437102Fuuuaaarrrrkkkk....>>582436906Just resting
>>582437163not a Canon map but honestly im not sure the Empire will get another DLC or Lord option
>>582437224In my current campaign he got owned by Karl Franz of all people.
>>582437037I agree with the lobotomy part to an extent but I still really liked it for what it is and that genuinely surprised me for a game I got on sale for $20 dollarydoos with Crisis Core Reunion: FF7 Prequel. Jobs system also felt like the best in the entire series which is ironic given it’s a spinoff and becoming a god during endgame content like the Rifts in the third DLC was stupidly fun too.
>>582437143turn 39 still didnt do the battle yikes
Yeah I closed my game. I will relaunch it after today's peak.
>>582437574History will not remember you kindly.
I've been taking a break but i'll boot the game up in the background to counteract that other anon
>>582436563they're calling it the most thaggoraki post of all time
>>582437373pox be upon ye
>>582437306>because the devs have namedropped him in their dev interviews.lmao yeah and dogs of war and the monkey king are right around the corner
>>582437647I would but it’s 1:30am down under and I’ve been awake since 5:00am yesterday so I’m turning in for the night. Hope we do hit 100k consecutive players.
>Average /r9k/ poster
im sick and tired of doing manual battles against rebellions as skaven, im just gonna build extra defenses in the capitals now
le sigh.... time to play something else for now
>>582437953This is not the cutest rat.
>>582437953Nah, that's the average /fgg/ poster
>>582437875unironically
>>582437074nta but what about the black rose knights? They're usually p good when I play elspeth.
>>582438129he probably meant said rose knights and not the Sylvanian Empire Knight variant(Morr)
>>582437953Haven't been there for so long, it's such a youthful angst board I can't imagine going there as a full adult
Yeah, because the devs accidentally forget assets in the files..
>>582438105do western dogs know any other chinese myth except monkey king
>>582437224Really? In my games it usually ends up Karl or one of the Kislev factions that does that.
So what units are you supposed to really rely on as Nagash before you become OP/for your other armies
>>582437953what purpose do they serve?
>>582438129They're Melee Cav, unlike the rest of the Knights they're worse on the charge but better in extended fights.
>>582438232i honestly don't like it, we already have a cathay animal, i hope it's just the lord being a monkey, otherwise the cathay roster will be like half animal
>>582437953It's funny how much difference there is in quality between that and the one in Vermintide 2.OBVIOUSLY it not being a strategy game the graphical quality is better. But designwise it's better there too.
My battle abilities have degraded from too much autoresolving, best faction for relearning battle gameplay?
>>582438232No why would we when China has been an absolute shithole until the late 2000sThey need time to make more media
>>582438232Journey to the west is SLOP anyway.Dragon Ball is a better version of it anyway.
>>582438223Me either. It's just whiners mad they can't get pussy and blame it on everyone but themselves. Or ya know, can't just get over it.
>>582438232tbf the Chinese don't either when was the last time Water Margin was ever referenced?
Hm.. Well it actually is here, it's not fake. Well that sucks ass..
>>582438618Journey to the West was written in the 16th century thougheverbeit?
Did tomb kings get better with the latest patch? Always heard they were the weakest and kind of a joke factionI only have the base faction if that matters
>>582438624>Or ya know, can't just get over it.To be fair half of this is probably hormones calming down after 25
>>582438330I assume to help the Stormfiend actually use weapons. Rat Ogres are good at mashing things to bits, but they're VERY head empty. I heard that in the table top, sometimes you have to roll to maintain their basic attention so they're not staring at a tree or something.These guys are back pack brains.
>>582438584tzeentch unironically, lots of stuff to micromanage
>>582438682ok and?
>>582438710pirate coast is the weakest
>>582438710Tomb Kings are weak in the early game but they scale ridiculously hard, always have. Nagash gives them;>High Liche Priest Spellcaster lord>Tomb Herald Melee Hero>Khemric Titan>Khemric Titan RoR>Ushabti RoRWithout it they're perfectly playable as they were always intended to be a self-contained race.
>>582438741I think it's a character thing to. Even when Hormones go down you still have grumpy angry incels that keep on it like 30 onwards.I think that person needs to stop and ask themselves "Is acting like a grumpy gus gonna get me pussy at all? Maybe I should make an effort to just calm down and accept that sex isn't some magical guarantee because of the way media depicts it".Or something to that effect.
i can do longer support kislev due what genshin did to sneznaya
Do Dwarfs have some special confederation mechanic, or do I not have the option because of the NAP or something?
>>582435603It makes me laugh every time I think about how CA cucked themselves by adding the Knights of Morr for free as part of the "State Troops, forcing them to come up with a different knight unit for ToT (fortunately for them, the Knights of the Black Rose were there in the lore).
>>582439331If I recall you have to confed using groodges.
>>582439096>Ushabti RoRisn't that Negash exclusive since their meant to be the Ubshabti of the Black Pyramid
>>582439392oh yeah I see it in the book now. thanks.
>didn't stock up skeleton spears>settras beats me>win in siege at black pyramid>volkmar cleans me upI guess it's really important to use that province near arkhan to recruit some non shit units.
[IMPORTANT NEWS]The Tomb King Crisis is currently bugged and will crash your game on spawn, this is because of a code error between Nagash's end times event and the original Kangs Crisis
>another update>no bretonnia changes
>>582435795> auto-resolving most battles instead of doing more manual fights.That's the average TWW experience.
>>582439096>>Ushabti RoRIIRC that one's exclusive to Nagash's faction. Tomb Kings don't get to play with it.
>>582436579Tell me more about Bongo Cat.
Whew. DoomGAWDS are in the clear as player count is going down. No 100k for hopesissies.
>>582438665There is files about Miao and Zhao doing diplomacy with Monkey King since Bhashiva update.stop eating T*rk "food"
>>582439807It's one of those marketplace item farmers like that Banana game or that Egg game. The idea is to farm items over time which you then sell on the marketplace for pennies. This makes it consistently farmed by third worlders and especially bots.
I can't believe CA are backtracking on Li Dao and YinYin in favour of chimpslop.....
>>582440069Very grim.. very grave.. but it is what it is. I can't change it. Let's just hope it also brings a new dragon. *eats Döner*
>>582439096>>582438710Lore of Nehekhara rework SOON!
>>582440247I just want Khalida to have Gotrek and Felix
>VC confederation doesn't transfer settlementsAnd just like that capturing Drakenhof to build the Malevolent Museum became ten times more of a hassle.
Do undead get the same offer that chaos factions do with Archaon where they can choose to bend the knee to Nagash or fight against him?
>>582440084>It's one of those marketplace item farmers> like that Banana game or that Egg game.>The idea is to farm items over time which you then sell on the marketplace for pennies
>>582440418I don't think any endgame works like that except chaos.
Legend leaked this years ago!And you still dare to doubt him?
Three ibuprofen and my head still hurts like a bitch. How do I AR my headache?Total war
>>582439606I guess, but I feel like I should do more so I'm not ignoring learning the rts aspect. Also because unless you get the mod you can't Auto quest battles.
>>582440551we didn't have his back
>>582440169> Li DaoLH> YinYinAncillary
>>582440493It's a clicker game where each click has a chance of giving you an item, these items can range from trash to literal unique 1 in 500,000 rarity.These items are then sold to other players on the steam workshop like TF2 hats.The game is free to play and so is infested with bots which is why its playercount is always top 10 at all times of day at all times of the year.
>>582440551When's Mung the Brutal?
>>582440745Coming, but there aren't enough Ogre units so he'll be one of the last once the packs are reduced to basically character packs.
>>582440552sucks to be youthanks for the superchat
>>582440717>> YinYin>AncillaryI will firebomb CA if that happens
>>582440938She will not be Aqua.
the game is pretty much complete and the map is already bloated
Can you confirm me if Vampire Admiral and Vampire Captain got access to the new lore of Undeath ?
>>582441095Which means the only path left is opening Ind & Khuresh. Putting Li Dao, Yin-Yin, Monkey King and a bunch of NPCs, throwing Dogs of War in the Old World and calling it a day.
>>582441095Not until they finally add naval combat
>>582441246Dogs of War is never happeningin my opinion GW doesn't want CA to make models of obscure factions that they could use in the future for The Old WorldI really wanted to see amazons and halflings
>>582441095My duke is incredibly based.
>>582441095Not true, we still need 5 additional rat LLs.
>>582441179they do
>>582440393>felix should be a LL whose mechanic is about having sexo with all the female LL>Sigvald should have the same mechanic but sexo is for male LLWe were robbed
total warHAMMER is so back
>>582441519Felix is not a leader of men.
>>582441095>the map is bloated"My lobster is too buttery and my steak is too juicy."I genuinely don't understand this complaint. What do you mean bloated? It's not like real estate in a total war game prevents you from grabbing it. Those settlements would be taken by generic lords and factions anyway. Having them fleshed out with characters is just better.
>>582435603Mystery Niggas
>>582441745stop making food allegory you fat fuck
>>582441471>in my opinion GW doesn't want...in my opinion you want big dicks in your ass
what a nice wholesome activitydont you wanna waste 4626 gold on some shit you dont need?
>>582441593>gun barrels don't line up with traceri hate this so much
>>582441471Amazons aren't gonna happen because GW doesn't want pearl clutching jagoffs whining about too much boobs or anything with Slaanesh.
>>582442063>why do it at all?well i dont have a choice really
>techs to make bloated carcasses expendable and stalking with extra chance to Dead Rise Again in nagash's pyramidgonna have to rename my faction to undead al-qaeda>>582441179vampirate lords and heroes get undeath lore yes. If thats exclusive to nagash's faction or if VC get it too I do not know

>>582438232Easterners fucking love the Monkey King dudeJourney to the West is like their version of the King Arthur mythos
>>582443023no, because Chorfs fit this plae
>>582442885Okay i've never played Epidemius, QRD?
>>582441828Buff Niggas
>>582442281There are still good generic lords from DLCs though.
>>582443151Nurgle's pencil pusher.
>>582443151Giga aids. Both in diseases and your start position.
>>582443143Ok, reasonable. You mean like Bretonnia in Brazil and stuff? What are the worst offenders, in your opinion?
>>582443204Dark Niggas
>>582443151Basically Kugath but worse in every way.
>>582443229>>582443339>>582443421Oh :( Well i'll play 30 turns and see how I feel.

>>582444007Psycho niggas
how the fuck does the lexicon of unlearning work for vampire couns bloodline lords? all it does is removing my trait instead of giving me a new one.
Most popular lotet lords descending based on number of reviews>Nagash>Boris>Thanquol>Glottkin
>make to Black Crag after rushing Skarsnik>Gorbad managed to confederate the entire BadlandsI think I should have rushed him instead. Fucking hell.
>>582444260Also worth mentioning that there's a MASSIVE power gap between Thanquol and Glottkin, Thanquol has over twice the reviews that Glottkin does.
>>582441095>>582442281The problem then is the map, not the DLC.We have to ask for a bigger map, Gigamortal Empire DLC!
>>582444196Racist niggas
>>582444260Glotkin is really roleplay focused, as weird as that sounds. You actually have to do quests and shit.
>>582444260>>582444359Almost like nobody wanted or cared about yet another fucking Nurgle lord.
huh?how exactly did they take it over when my troops are on the walls
>>582443976Because I closed the game :3
>>582444369Jewish niggas
>>582444007kek, Nagash really never knew how far Mannfred was willing to go to not be controlled
>>582444548whos this gargamel looking nigga
>>582443589Sorry anon, he's a FLC for people that couldn't buy Tamurkhan immediately or creampi it.His AI usually get's steamrolled early game, or sticks around to mid-game before someone eats him.
>>582444429Them being WoC doesn't help. The race is so bloated it's insane. Obviously, they should've been part of Nurgle but then CA would have had to rework that faction to actually be fun, and they already reworked Vamps in the update, and CA Sofia don't have the manpower for more.
Those got haters said this was a stupid idea.
>>582444496such is the power of Elspeth
>>582443151Worst shit ever. He's Kugath except worse in every way and none of his buffs are worthwhile. He has some meme mechanic where he gets more tech the more plagues he has going on, but who the fuck cares about Nurgle tech? If he came out today, he'd be a legendary hero.
>>582444364Worthless performance hit to simulate factions and regions with whom you will never interactThe solution is actually what The Old World and TWW40k with Theaters does. Focused, thematic, big maps for a particular content you want to play, doing it's justice.Immortal Empires is a bad idea which makes world feels small and uniting Race homelands feel unrewardingMake The Old World, The Far East, The New World and Chaos Wastes into 4 different big campaigns and problem is solved
So this is a good unusual location right?
>>582441095Cut Cathay from the game.
>>582445049what if I want to do something like colonize the delf lands as the empire or settle the groodge with helves as dwarfs
do i just build vlad to be a 1 man army who can solo everything and send the rest of my zombies and skellies to just body block and waste time
i wanna have sex with thanquol, the greatest grey seer
Favorite orc warboss?
>>582442063this actually lets me shit out so many underempires to buff my armies on the campaign map its amazing i love itnow there is a particular issue>see cash money settlement>put bozo plan to make an underempire there to then expand for future conquest, but for now stealing shit is a good boost to my economy>get parts>and complications>all the complications, as a matter of fact>alarm level full but got all parts, place that fucker>got the under-empire, it also spawned a hostile verminlord army>oh surely it's not th->that singular army has a single digit strength rank in the factions list>they proceed to raze the fucking settlement with my under-empire in it>and almost the entire fucking faction and a few bystanders before they time out and disappearuhhhh pic rel

>>582445295You will get bored of campaign before doing it on a normal factionYou will play as dedicated Lord like Markus or Alberic for that
Who else is a little liche failure? I turned on early crisis because I figured Nagash would be OP as hell (he really is) but got the worst possible crisis. Nagash could solo it but he's in brettonia getting a book and krell and arkhan was trying to get neferata...
Finished the long campaign with Archaon.And I got nothing. No cutscene. No victory text. Just an anticlimactic silence.What is this shit?
>>582439203If incels were tall and attractive it wouldn't matter if they were grumpy or angrySame with being abusive/sexist, saying that's why they don't get laid is simultaneously denying that abusive boyfriends existLooks are all that really matter
>>582445659Why don't get Drachenfells these days? Is it because he's really oldhammer? He got a mention in Vermintide 2, that's how I'm aware of him.

>>582446260It's not, Nagash end times is disabled when playing Nagash
How to consistently RAPE Oxyotl's disgusting, chameleon cloaca without getting annoyed even when I'm winning? (first 30 turns btw)
>>582446445the original post said it was the tomb kings crisis that was bugged which is what triggered in anons post, nagash's end times scenario is different
>>582435795Auto Resolving is a bad habit, but with how annoying chasing the AI can be Ive limited it to specific scenarios. Typically when I do an actual battle and the dead lord gets replaced and the 3 shattered units left run away or the occasional siege battle if it's a slog.
>lexicon of unlearning just removes your trait and you get nothingwhat is even the point
Guys I can't beat very hard with any of the new lords
>>582445894Well /r9k/ doesn't complain about their current gf's are they? Bottom line is, it's still a character thing, and sometimes it takes good old self-reflection to sort that out, or at least be more aware of it instead of sinking deeper into it.Besides what does r9k whine about THE MOST?

I had to leave Mannfred alone at my start since almost everyone North, especially Skarbrand were being a pain in ass. Do I just turn back around after and beat baldy or restart and rush south at the risk of losing my Pyramid. He's loaded with SEMs and Heroes now.
>>582448284Play a faction that isn't trash, like Skarbrand.

holy shit started a elspeth legendary campaign and the vampires are fucking raping me
i actually did it, i finished my first quest battle and auto resolve was phyrric victory i turned it into a decisive winit was probably the first time i genuinely felt like i had any fucking clue what i was doing, granted the only things i actually did any micro with was my flying units and wolves going instantly for any ranged and my blood knights just kept doing wrap around charges while vlad slowly walked into melee
>>582446906I lowered the difficulty to hard for nagash...
>me as Ungrim
>>582450451congrats anon quest battles are tricky because you have no idea what'll happen if you're doing it for the first time

>>582450403I do think the AI is much better than it was. Even in batltes I noticed it cycle charging me.
It’s so lame how nagash can’t confederate kemmler and ghorst. They are literally vampire count faction characters
>>582452060???
Dishonored :(
>>582452060He subjugates the cucks like mannfred and the necromancer chads like him get to be vassals.Seriously his settlements are insanely overvalued.

>>582451537
>>582436538>10/10 unit in looks>1/10 in gameplayMany such cases
>>582452060Kemmler sucks off Chaos. I'm not sure what Ghorst's deal is.
>>582452103I know they aren’t technically undead but they are necromancers so he should confederate them
>>582452060That's the LICHEMASTER to you!
>>582451108im still complete dogshit but atleast having all melee kinda helps me figure out even the slightest amount of basics and feels way easier to control then skaveni also still have zero clue what im actually fucking doing in campaign also with what i should be building or doing, im just building everything that gives growth or money
>>582452498Ghorst is too powerful for a FRAUD like Nagash
>>582451971yeah the only thing saving me is that elspeth can kill heroes and lords really fast otherwise I wouldnt know what to do against them
Damn Greenskins are actually pretty fun

siege maps make no sense what do you mean i cant just walk through here?
why does every DLC except Nagash have mixed reviews?what happened?
Late game nagash vs chaos invasions is fun
every time I play a battle as Nagash that isn't an autoresolve decisive victory I lose at least one unit of skeletons because I don't have the presence of mind to notice undead units breaking and dissolving

The Thorgrim Campaign is insane right now. No matter who you squash first, somebody on the other side will snowball. There's nothing but enemies in every direction. Zhufbar dies even faster because Thanquol is there.
>>582452498>Ghorst's dealLiterally just a random peasant who had the good fortune of running into Mannfred von Carstein who, out of the goodness of his heart, gave Helman a proper education.

Mannfred got screwed. He was the only vampire I wanted to play and they completely ignored him.

>>582460481Krell being a summon never made sense to begin with.
this expansion is cool and all but when are they going to fix pathing?
>>582436419I imagine there'll be some fun spins on how to play Nagash, since I am intrigued by the idea of gunpowder + constructs. The problem I am theorizing on now is the fact that your lords minus Nagash (and to an extent Arkhan or nefertitty I assume) do not buff outside of their culture. So you have to weigh which unit is better led by the lord and which unit can suffice on just the agent. So for example do you do a vampirate lord to buff the gunline and just rely on the SEM as tanks, so a necrotect suffices? Do you do the reverse? Minmaxxer can say why not just spam one or the other but the idea is fun. At the same time the pyramid buffs mitigate that issue somewhat and it also needs to consider the lord's performance itself. How is vampire lore versus undeath lore?>Check Neferata>She doesn't buff tomb king unitslameLAME
holy shit rapenado
They are adding the monkey king then abandoned this game btw.
>>582459828I am not joining their Discord but I'm intrigued, how coomery is this?

>End Times Archaon passively spams multiple purple suns and searing dooms at once without WoMBecause SEM stacks were not optimal enough. Fuck you CA.
This is a man you can rely on.
Its so annoying that as Repanse you have Aranessa discovered from game start. Like there's an entire ocean between us. She inevitably attacks you and you're forced to go to the old world.
>>582460817You'd be surprised at how overpowered Nagash is, he alone can solo everything on her stack except for the artillery>>582461736Arguably the only one you can rely on since he confeds without you needing to put him in his place
>>582461736>both Arkhan and Mannfred mogging the Supreme Lord of the Undead by settlement countEmbarrassing.
>>582462020The main reason there are so many turns just to take out skarbrand because of that stupid marsh. I'm going after manny now and will have to confed arkan because he took out a rogue army for me and now somehow has one of the nagash books instead of me.
>solos an ironbreaker
>>582461601good, i've been slopping a lot of beastman elf rape and this would be neat
Why does she wear the hat

as Nagash I'm just spamming TK units because I don't like the aesthetic of an Egyptian Pharoah leading a bunch of late Medieval European knights and shit

>>582460481Let me guess, you like how the Green Knight is right now ?

>>582462725Go Henry ! Go! Go Henry ! Go!still not giving him the pussy
for some reason neferata permanently disappeared after losing a battle and this is the new faction leader

>>582463861I don't play Bretonia cause the faction is antiquated as fuck
>>582463479Artillery is always nice at least. I was curious about trying gunline.If I look at DA PYRAMID thenThey are off the righthand side, so they could synergize well with tomb king units as you have to go through them to get to them. They get dig-in so +40% range and expert charge resist if they are s stationary for a certain amount of time, not sure what, they also get extra reload.Archers (Who are annoyingly on the other side, so for some reason the fastest way to get to them is to go for zombies of the coast lol?) get +10% range, magical attack, poison, flaming - you can have more than one effect per attack right (so flaming poison magical?).I've seen people say good things of archers for nagash, but it doesn't seem bad to me. The biggest problem I see is synergy, which I touched on a sec ago - >>582461282Vampirate lord is necessary to buff gunners, which means you can't buff the basic TK infantry you'd use in conjunction or the Constructs you'd use as tarpits. Or TK lord but then can't buff the gunnery in which case why go guns. Or Nagash to buff both but why bother with that when Nagash can solo.
>>582464118
Finally done with the stupid chaos crisis>Neferata actually has different unique idle comments on world map after beating Archaon
Aislinns outpost mechanic is fucking broken for the friendly AIs. Making these seems to be actively sabotaging them as the armies get stuck in marching limbo between places.
undeath is coooming desert ogres and those dwarfs? i think
I dunno. It sure feels like Nagash is weak even after he gets going a bit.
>>582463479nagash gets to just recruit caskets of souls so those are kind of just better than vampire guns
Lost because they no longer apply:>Local Recruitment duration: -1 turn for all units (minimum 1)>Treasury Recruitment cost: -10% (armies in region)Gained:>Vampiric Corruption: +1Basically it might be worth more if it were immediately demolished and replaced by vampire crypts or something.

are you a symetrical or an asymetrical army builder>every unit must have a mirror unit on the X axis, or be by itself if in the middle positionvs>fuck it shit goes wherever, all 4 units of cavalry on one flank etc.
>mortarchs become unrecruitable if they dieThis is retarded. Why the fuck is it like this?
>>582466223Both
What's the difference between Lore of Vampires and Lore of Undeath? What are the pros & cons of recruiting a necromancer of the latter lore now that they have access to it?
>>582466223I try and mirror for the infantry, for the cavalry/flankers on the left and right side I usually have the left flank being the more aggressive/stronger one and the right being defensive (which is a reverse of how the Mongols/Turks did it I think). Right defensive side and the right flank protection just force the AI to either engage the line (and get flanked by the cavalry/monster/SEM/Hero) or will engage the AI itself and have the last man in the battle line run over to help.Differ left/right if the terrain requires it.
>>582465085How much does it cost to construct it ?

>If he so hated mortality, perhaps he should have sought the Blood Kiss.This would have averted the end times boogaloo. Now half the world is chaos waste too since it doesn't go away after Archaon is defeated.

Another day, another 3 dawi armies arriving via the underway
Tis a great day!
>>582466914The only good VC LLs are Neferata and the Von Carstein couple.>But dude Ghorst!His invincible zombiemannii are strong, but the playstyle gets incredibly boring after one and a half battles.
>>582462696Does he even have a good trait or is it some other dogshit like Attrition?
>>582466607lore of undeath has more nukes and summons a dragon and the heal and buff it has is slightly better for single entities, the real change of this is that tomb kings get a lore that actually heals their skeletonsvampire lore dance macabre is still better for buffing your early game army or multi figure armies and curse of years doesnt have an equivalent utility spell in undeath
>>582466753Anyone knows what the fuck this is aboutI can't kill teclis because of this shit
>>582467729You forgot mannfred
Having to choose the red perks to invest in as Nagash is impossible, the roster is so fucking big I have no idea about what I will be using in 20 turnsCalvary? Monsters? Missile units? Elite Infantry? Constructs?
>>582461000Yes. Take a lord on a griffon, summon a manticore, and shenanigans ensue.
some of you here that no life this game, is the vermintide end time event good? i heard the final battle is hard as fuck
>>5824677415% ward save for the lord and +leadership against undead for army
>>582467806I'd like to agree, but no. The faction and lord effects are so bad that you can play most of a campaign as if there simply were no effects at all. And now there are bloodline lords that not only get unique skill lines but can also be tailored through lairs to have as much flair as any LL.
Imma be real ive played all 4 campaigns to turn 20 and none really stuck out to me
how come I don't hear more people discuss Death globes? These kills are from 3 volleys
Astragoth invaded me. 2nd Army cooked his ass.
>>582469042anything that takes 2 or more turns to recruit might aswell not exist
>>582469136How fortunate then that Thanquol reduces global recruitment
Did they buff grey seers yet?
>>582469239it doesnt apply to them, you probably just have 20 buildings where they are recruited because its turn 100 or something, at that point they will be recruited faster yes
Reading up on how Boris died and wow what a chad. And Beastmen acting very in-character.
>>582469771Boris died like a bitch.
>>582469607It does though you fucking retard it applies to all global recruitments.
>>582469897He killed Khazrak. He won.
>>582469962His soul was sacrificed to the Chaos gods and he is tortured for all eternity.Khazrak won.
Neferata was much more fun than Nagash.
>>582470060>His soul was sacrificed to the Chaos gods and he is tortured for all eternity.Proofs?
>>582466223>compositionFrontline ranges from 7 (range heavy armies) to 11 (mosh pit) units. Backline and artillery ranges from 2 to 7 units. Flank groups get recruited in instances of 2-4 and usually with a hero of some kind leading them. If I'm making use of a RoR then I prefer them to be in the center of a formation of similar units so 3 would be the golden number for flank groups. I only have a single instance of a unit if it's a big expensive centerpiece like a thunderbarge. >positioningPositioning the main battle group depends on the map. If on a map with little advantageous terrain then I assume a standard symmetrical formation. If I recruit 3 or less of a flank group unit, or if I have a second flank group unit, then all of that unit is getting grouped together for ease of micro.
>>582470060Boris doesn't care. He killed Khazrak. So in both his and the reader's mind. He won.
>>582470135That literally happened to all Empire characters in the End Times. Nobody was safe.
>>582470237Proofs?
>>582461383>Monkey King>Egrimm Horstman>Dogs of War/Southern Realms>Bretonnia update and new LL (Bohemond, Bertrand or Mallobaude)>Josef BugmanI am 100% convinced we are atleast getting this before they pull the plug on WH3.
bros I'm thinking neferata is kind of hot
>>582470301Read the End Times. The whole world got consumed by Chaos.
>>582470407Proofs?
I can't believe Karl is now melee-mogged in his own race... The Prince and Emperor needs a buff to his MA and MD.
>>582470407this didn't happen, not canon
>>582470465Nah Karl is a statesman first .
>>582470407I'm guessing Teclis, Nagash, Sigmar and Morathi also got eaten by the Chaos gods? Oh wait, nevermind, the end times didn't matter because all it did was reset the universe to a worse status quo..

good
>>582471789this is unironically the first real foid i've seen playing TW where there wasn't any doubt about it maybe in 20 years

i cant really play a faction unless i'm playing the leader of that faction. exceptions are taurox and arbaal (and sometimes valkia) because they're fun. its like why play toddy if i'm not the emperor
>>582472517This doesn't seem right? The AI is really good now?
>>582472460>what about the girl who got fat?whoidk anytihng about thatbut tis always some vtuber with a suspicously manly voice like that clio chick or other ones possibly that don't use voice changers or troony looking womenthis >>582471789just looks like a dollar store foid

>>582472517Is this a modder mad that an update broke their mod and having a meltie?If so, what a fag
I have never seen Vlad do this
>>582473104He has done extensive tests and confirmed that the AI has been lobotomized.
>>582473140Averlandbros... it seems Vlad has heard the beastfucker allegations...
>>582473190Seems to work for me, idk
>>582473065he certainly plays like he is (teleports behind you and kills you with his insanely inflated stats)whereas Archaon is meant to be the big leader but he has to walk around like a faggot
>>582473140vlad always blobs in my campaignsidk what u niggas are talkin bout
So which one?

>>582473367whichever one tops
>>582473363Vlad ignoring Averland and going straight to Elspeth? I sure as fuck haven't

Is there any good Kislev reskin mod?I really hate how their units lookEverything has magic ice aura around itCan't see shit in battle especially against new chaos niggers who glow and sparkle like christmas lights as wellThe fuck happened with art direction in this game
Anyway for me to revive Kislev ?
>>582473367Warbringer
>>582472023>knife alley just next to arabtownwhat did GW mean by this?
>>582473524There was... And it was beautiful... But the modder quit... And it hasn't been updated in a long time...

>there is a caravan mechanic>there is a faction literally named Caravan>the faction named Caravan does not have a caravan mechanic
>>582474940The 'caravan' is the line of zombies.
I wish the Eshin maneater was a proper Hero instead of a ror sem
>>582475113Rather than a line they tend to make more of a tactical blob formation.
>>582475304It's still a kind of caravan.
>>582475228based
Zombie dragon or coven throne for Neferata?
>>582473367Depends what you want and what you're using at that point, each verminlord buffs their specific clan units a bit
>>582475613Coven Throne is a lot more vulnerable, but it works like a super chariot so it gets value if you're facing loads of normal infantry and does fuck all against monsters.
>>582475228It's hammerer time.
I was afraid we'd have to set up shop on 8/v/ again, glad to be back bros
Angie LL too powerful...
>>582466370I don't think this is true. In my Volkmar game, Nagash recruited Mannfred after I had killed him.
>>582448432My assumption is that they originally intended him to use tomb kang mechanics for crafting
scheme-plan success!server cables chew-nibbled!
>>582476920They've got chains all around them and both the requirements and buttons are gone. Does it just hide the requirements?

TW1 truly is the main character game.
>>582450183Dawi-Zharr kebabs are delicious. How dare you imply he doesn't belong here.
>>582451108>>582452734There's a few that fuck me up at least, I play Skarbrand and his quest battle has me thinking I should attack with Skarbrand but then he gets raped by like 5 bloodthirsters and then I get ganked by Nurgle, even assuming I win.
>>582477293have you not spend the past several months or even years begging for nagash? now you pull this tomfoolery in playing the fool shameful

Glancing over Skrolk and it's really disappointing how little he boosts Pestilens unts.

Getting the most out of Nurgle would require CA to do something big with the corruption mechanic, and also uncuck his plagues.

Total war warhammer 3 just made a damn point. Here’s why thats actually a good thing.
>>582481092Actually it's>Hammermanii + Axemanii + Horsemanii + Dualswordsmanii + Doggos for the Empire
>>582480687Who cares about the tabletopWarhammer Tabletop has always fucking sucked
>>582481440That as it may be it's still the main source of info that CA takes from and so if Glottkin is WoC on TT he'll be WoC in game.
Ok I think I got a good grasp on Nagash with fast expanding, but not over extending and doing a one by oen wipe. Ports make a lot of money. A lot.

Warpdoom magma canons are my favorite unit of this DLC. HOLY SHIT I did not know they were just as good against single entities as against blobs. They instakilled Skrag.
>>582482456There's a reason they're a single entity and not 4 entities like the Warp Lightning Cannon

>>582481884 Sauce?
>LL with the biggest roster is also the LL that works best as a solo hero
>>582467862Melee Infantry is always a safe bet.Also despite the wide roster, you still want to use themed armies because, for example, a Counts lord will do nothing for Kang and Coast troops. The only truly mixed army you want is Nagash himself, otherwise it's better to run a Count army with a Count lord etc
>>582464697never ally anyone as Aislinn, ally lobotomy means every elf will constantly collapse
>>582482684Everyone loves Skaven, actually>>582482606You have to pay Arkhan's skellymen, unlike when he's a Tomb Kanger
>>582483487I hate Skaven.

>>582483237Sorry Anon, it's slop
>>582483627Take out Vlad first and use schemes to take free settlements from the dwarfs before you attack them
>>582483216You get more buffs to Nagash taking the inner middle line that goes over your starting wheels btw, probably a more efficient use of travel nodes
>>582483575So why not Beastmen or VC?Nids and Skaven are both horde factions. I think that has more to do with it.
>>582483793That's unfortunate, there's quite few straight art like that

would you betray your country for a lamian handmaiden
Imagine how bad skaven smell
>>582484458Bro you need to upload to mega or something.
GW's own lore makes it clear that elf women are the property of ogresses. They just barely held back from stating that The Old Ones hand crafted elf women to be up, or under fat sweaty ogress asses. Keep that in mind when you try shipping them with anything else.
>>582484460I'd betray my country for literally any reward at all
>>582484591The smell is meant to repel white men.Now white women on the other hand..
Done.Wake me up when next DLC drop for another K.F campaign.

>>582484591I do, everyday.>>582484612Yeah for sure, I'll do it when I've built up enough worth sharing.Time to game for now
>>582484684Go long or go home, dork.
>>582484460i got a boner when one of them called me darling on the campaign map so probably
>>582484458 I don't mind, but variety is nice and some of the Kerillian Skaven porn is some of the hottest shit ever made of Warhammer
I hate fighting high elvesAll their infantry just happens to be unbreakable and all the phoenixes are more obnoxious than dragons
Scrungly statue
Skaven femboys are official canon now.
>>582483487>Everyone loves Skaven, actually
>>582437136Why two warshrines? I know they're different but do they stack or did you just emergency recruit them?Also, how did your sorcerer get so many kills at level 5? I tend to mostly the V shaped vomit spell.Also those giant spined beasts of chaos are awesome. Did you tie up the skinswolves and javelins with your infantry? you have a lot of large single entities.
>>582483575>WerewolvesThe companionship of a dog, fluffiness of a dog's coat, loyalty of a dog, and an exotic dick. >MinotaurThick cock, association of virility and strength, muscles, ect.>CentaurIbid but rarer>VampireImmortality, aristocracy, older male yet not decrepit, wealth, BDSM/proximial violence where the man is capable of great violence but he won't (probably) kill you. Skaven have nothing beyond just hedonistic depravity and reduction into a broodmare but usually it's more corruption/degradation. Equivalent of fantasizing about being used by crusty fentanyl addicts. Why it is more popular by far among gay men than women.
>>582484835where
farming vermintide knowledge is LITERALLY impossibledid they even test this shit?
>>582482684I recently befriend a girl who told me she kept a pet cockroach and had it for almost a year. She fed it and has a whole photo album with stickers and shit and buried it underneath a rose bush when it died. She's also insanely beautiful and has a thing for bugs.I've also seen some videos on how to care for pet rats and mice and they're always made by white women.
>>582484460
hello yes with mods (great cheats) still work after 9.0
>>582484736Nay.
I played Glottkin until like turn 70 and I got BTFO'd by Boris and Franzy who had like 8 full stacks each.I'm gonna give Boris a try. Is the empire playbook to just spam missle units and wizards?CA has been pushing their cav with each update, I'm wondering if combined arms is still a meme. Am I just gonna end up spamming hellstorms and heroes no matter the faction?
>>582485701t. jeet
Is nagash not meant to have global recruitment?
could secure Vlad before Elspeth pushed in. NAP with Elspeth
>>582486042>I'm gonna give Boris a try. Is the empire playbook to just spam missle units and wizards?Yes but Boris is a melee focused empire faction instead.
>>582486194I always felt was what missing in my relatable protagonist faction was chosen of ulric.
Nurgle reveals alllll
>>582486042boris gets units to help with his frontline, if you mix in some of his new units empire forma de melee works just fine.
there's something wrong with the Undead Legion summoned units they're just retarded 50% of the time and get stuck in place refusing to move or act
First time i saw it pop in 90 turns.
what strats are (You) using with Nagash?
>>582483449Is that really a thing?
>>582487035By not buying him and instead using that money to buy some ice cream (mint chocolate of course)t. mutt
>>582486138grave call?
after playing a couple of the new LL I noticed that they are in fact more narrative focused than the previous ones. I kind of like it. I like the RP and being encouraged to build lore-accurate armies and kind of recreate the stories and battles that each LL and faction is famous for.what do you guys think? I know some people are pissed about the Drakwald thing for Boris but cmon his entire schtick is fighting beastmen. Seems kind of soulful, like orcs and space marines.
>>582487035>let arkhan do his thing>wipe khemri and mannfred>once done confed arkhanAt this point you explode and actually have a half decent economy that can sustain two stacks and nagash can spec into shit like 10% ward save.
>>582487556the drakwald lets you train up your other armies while boris puts vampires in the dirt
>>582487035>>582487556powering up nagash to be a tanky, melee, support, caster, summoner, healer
>>582487556I realized my big problem with the game was that there was hardly any consideration for the narrative feel of each faction so that sounds good to me if true
puh. both boys got resurreced after Battle.
>>582487035Nothing. I got filteredCouldn't handle getting attacked by endless lizard stacks and watching my economy collapse if they take even one settlement
>>582488676It's brutal that losing anything means you lose your necropolis limit and sigils, hitting you even harder.
>>582485437Skaven is an "I can fix him" type of angle. Doesn't help that stormvermin-tier skaven are like 7 feet tall
Turn 100 With nagashPretty decent campaign. By turn 40 you can comfortably solo everythting with nagash but it's such a pain having to fight every single battle manually. He easely solo'd archaon who still had 58% ward saveBiggest pain truly is his economyMortarchs take way too long, I still don't have vlad even if I'm getting tthere and the only reason I might get him before turn 120 is that chaos invasions wiped out the empire for me.Also fuck that bitch Aislinn. He's so far away I can't dedicate an army to wiping him out so he gets to just walk around my empire fucking shit up.
>>582486042Boris is pretty viable using hammer and anvil or just high tier infantry doomstacks, but he won't be Khorne-tier suicide your frontline into the enemy and win. He's pretty good but it takes a couple of upgrades in your mechanic to scale up infantry like that.>>582486719AI factions don't have rebellions so that makes sense
>>582487783You can also leave Nagash alone at that point since he's got Unbreakable as one of his unique skill line passives. He alone can solo most armies, so you can just have a Nagash stack running around while you use two armies with Mannfred and Arkhan
Thanquol is fucking impossible to play. Empire and dwarf get juiced up and outnumber you 5 to 1
>>582489352I just had my Nagash essentially solo skarbrand without taking damage. It's almost silly.
>>582489419Skill issue-problem.
>>582489501Doesn't feel like it. Elspeth and Karl fielded 5+ stacks of full cavs, and the dwarves also had 6 stacks.Ambushes never worked so it was 100% impossible
>>582487278>mint chocolateextremely based
>>582487035I am sticking to TWW2. Might buy the Mordheim Witch Hunter and Vampire warbands, however.
how do i into master plans
why did he declare waris he stupid?is he fat AND stupid?
>>582489936>I am sticking to TWW2Hello, based department?
>>582490349The AI diplomacy script does not have its own best interests at heart, it is designed purely to try to fuck you over - in this case to distract you.
>>582489704>he is getting wrecked as Thanquol, aka the Ikit Claw 2.0No wonder CA keeps powercreeping the fuck out of this game, you ratfaggots are helpless lmao.
>>582490349suicide by chaos
Well that hype died fast.
>>582489091The devs said something about how Nagash is designed so you can't do everything without going for ultimate victory because of how widespread his shit is.Though my biggest issue with Nagash and the DLC in general is I've been forced to use the IE map while waiting for Old World Campaign to update, and I don't know what it is, but I feel like I get the same exact fights endlessly with IE versus OWC despite the fact that OWC should feel more stagnant due to such a bigger map. I guess faction placement and spacing makes a big difference.
>>582490635You haven't played the game.
>>582490635~1500 hours in all three games, nigger.The last several hundreds I do kind of regret though.
>>582490635haven't really played a lot of skaven. what is my low tech option against umgrim slayers?
>>582491610Ranged. They're naked and slower than you, just shoot the little niggas.Also magic.Also ambushes.Also, a bad matchup in general (if we talk early game), so be smart about it and try to avoid them until you feel you're in good position.Basic stuff.
>>582491610Auto-resolve
>>582436538Your problem is recruiting T*mb K*ng units, presuming you're playing as Nagash
Designated flanking infantry are always trash because you're usually going to end up outnumbered vs the AI, and even if you don't non-cavalry doesn't have the speed to properly get into position.
>>582436538In my experience the only thing they're good for is sniping large lords and monsters after the moshpit has started.
>>582492470I can see a value for daemonettes in a siege. So often In a siege I have cavalry but I can't flank them for shit because there'll be enough anti-large infantry in the labrynth that they'll be chewed up. What warhammer needed was the map design of Troy-Pharaoh where the maps are very rugged and irregular and it's not positioned in the 'balanced' format that tends to happen in warhammer. Thus means dwarves feel a need to corner camp and something like flanking infantry aren't as useful as just having cavalry/monsters/flyers.The terrain is more irregular than R2/Attila, but it's sort of in between
>>582491271Eh I feel like I had decent variety in the early gameLate game was kind of a slog though
>>582489197>AI factions don't have rebellions so that makes senseBut it's not supposed to be linked to rebellion:https://community.creative-assembly.com/total-war/total-war-warhammer/blogs/110-total-war-warhammer-iii-update-9-0-release-notes>Daemonic Re-Emergence added>Every additional Legendary Lord added to the Immortal Empires map means another faction will meet their end relatively early in the campaign, this has led to almost all the minor Daemonic factions being defeated quite early into the campaign reducing the Chaotic presence of the world. >With the arrival of Lords of the End Times we wanted to bring some support to this part of the game by allowing Daemonic factions (including Legendary Lords) to return to the map after being defeated after a number of turns. Now if a Daemonic faction is defeated it can respawn in a province that has high corruption (either Undivided or the appropriate Mono-god corruption type)
>>582493157I only recently played on Cathay/Mountains-of-Mourn/New-swamp maps and was utterly baffled by the fact that clearly CA recognizes that their old views of map design are shit and they need more variety that isn't just "sometimes the map is slanted this way, other times it's slanted the other way"I assumed they would be in denial about it forever.Instead they acknowledge it and do the bare minimum.
Unit caps are the best way to reign in powercreep but y'all are not ready for that conversation
>>582494306Shut the FUCK up MImi
we joke a lot about empire is meant to suck but likevampire counts units are so dogshit they genuinely feel like they're meant to suck
this is skavencide
>>582489446He's so hilariously overpowered I'm surprised Teutogen guard got nerfed when this goober and Skreech are allowed to exist at the same time>Nagash has incredible 1v1 stats, good support spellcasting lore, army has tomb kangz healing mechanic (not for MP), he has magic damage, AP, free casting, summons>Skreech gets to teleport on your backline, beats everyone in melee stats, is immune to missilesMeanwhile Boris gets to slightly inconvenience people in melee and fatmcfucks get some heroes or something
>>582494306Even with unit caps lord/faction/item buffs are so strong you can overbuff tier 1-2 units to beat anything.
https://youtu.be/VfGUlSz8sTAnice endgame you got there
>>582494306>3 rat snipers>3 rat mortars>3 rat catapults>3 rat magma cannons >3 rat gunners (big sized)>1 rat lord (lime flavored)>3 rat priest>1 rat engineer
>>582491271>>582493210The problem is it's just the Nehekara bowl again, so he's basically just a better Arkhan and Mannfred. He's not really contributing to a unique starting position unlike Thanquol or Boris. Glottkins have a similar problem of>WoC in WoC-land
>>582494467The vampires are supposed to hard carry. But then the vampire heroes can sometimes get wrecked by other heroes that you'd think wouldn't win.
>>582494306>Herohammer but with more heroes
>lol fuck you, no replenishment for 5 turns, get fucked nigger
>>582495209should've taken the vaxx
>>582494467Try to closer to tabletop mod for a campaign or two.Vampire units are really wacky and their heroes/lords as well.
I guess we're all moving to 8ch/v.....
FUCK THAT BITCH AISLINN HE'S LITERALLY HIGH ELF CHANGELING
>"WHAT SAY YOU NOW ?!"
>>582493730Bad map design is part of what kills Warhammer. You're frequently fighting on the same maps from the same angles, where as older TW games had far more variety even if maps could be recycled.Like there is map recycling in Shogun 2, but you'll rarely notice it.
>>582496265>Fight in the woodelves area>All the maps are utter dogshit>AR them allI hate that place S Omuch
>>582494528> I'm surprised Teutogen guard got nerfed when this goober....are allowed to existHe is the most powerful playable entity in the entire game and is functionally a few steps removed from a Chaos God. I just do not get why epople always invoke Teutogen power levels and then compare them to some of the most cutting edge fantastical technology/magic in the setting. It's going to be like someone asking why kasrkin are not overpowered when Angron the Daemon Prince Primarch can solo armies.Teutogen are not even close to Grail Knights for god's sake.
>>582496363holy fucking based and gunpowderpilled
>absolutely nothing interesting happens when you reach 61k souls with Glotkin, you just unlock another garden slotI suppose CA never expected anyone to actually play the campaign for this long.
New music is so bland. https://youtu.be/sLRnbFBLj2sNow THIS is something I'd like to hear when the end times come. Not the generic mobile gacha game ost we got.
>>582496265There's mods that fix that...But once you try them, you realise why maps suck ass....because if maps were more diverse and complicated, AI would shit itself.What kills Warhammer (and Total War in general) is shit AI.There's hope though. Lightweight AI models can already be pretty good at video games, so maybe in a couple of years we'll see strategy games utilize this new tech.Gonna be amazing. Imagine AI who can fight back without cheats.
corner camping should trigger a leadership debuff
>>582496893Yeah, I noticed when I was fighting Khorne it's rather obscene that the AI doesn't really differ between factions. Khorne should always rush me, doesn't matter if they have artillery superiority or not it's fucking Khorne.
>>582497024The way to fix corner camping is to fix how maps work. Rather than having fixed "corners", the map is wherever your units are at setup. So if you deploy in the corner, the entire map around you expands to become playable field.
>>582497024Medieval 1 had a debuff for when you had too many units fighting in the same spots. I think it's the only game in the entire series that had this.
>>582497136There eventually will be a corner tho...
>>582497136Nope. Gotta keep them tiny for PVP
>>582497267But now you have to move to it, and can't sit still.
>>582497024There's a mod that does something similar, don't remember if it's for 2 or 3 though.>>582497136Corner camping can be fixed by clever AI too. Not always, but imagine if you corner camp against competent AI who has some AoE spells/artillery or ranged.
>>582496549Teutogen were nerfed over balance, not a lore reason. Ergo, it's kind of crazy those two aren't nerfed (for balance reasons). I understand that they are pretty strong in the lore, that's not a problem. I don't mind them being OP in single player either
