Which of the new LLs are fun to play? Also which is the least buggy?
I never tested, do these apply to embedded heroes and the lord?
>>583137840Nah that's dumb. Kills immersion. Hopefully a mod will change that. More impending doom for being further away than instant spawn into your backdoor while your main LL is half way around the other side of the world.

Disgusting.
nagash is coming in 15 turns what army do I put together as kisliev (ree my city is 3 turns away from t4) katarina
why hasn't CA fixed the zombie blob yet? the worst unit in the game should not carry you an entire campaign due to bullshit healing and bad enemy ai.
>>583142127nothing a well placed spell cant solve
>>583139518good post
>>583142373U fucking WISHI ate 3 winds of death in a row earlier and the zombies didn't give a single fuck. At max lost 5 entities.. of 160.. then they healed back up.Imrik's mage threw 2 burning heads into my blob, fucking nothing. One skeleton unit went down to 110, the zombies didn't care at all. They just revived and kept fighting.
>>583142332Units being low tier doesn’t mean they should be bad. Darkshards can also carry someone through the whole game.

I installed the DLSS mod for warhams3. the performance and image quality is good but somehow it has crazy ghosting when units move. anyone use this and can you fix it?
do rebel armies always siege? AR says they could've won when I checked on my turn but they decided to just park outside for some reason

It's just weird that out of all the games to make into a coom game, why TOTAL WAR?
>>583140967I would use this, but then I remember that I only play orcs and dwarfs so my only lines would be waaaaaaaaaggghhhh and oy vey
>>583145828You have female LLs that fuck
>>583145828because total war invokes the tribal urge of conquest and rape. i'm not a coomer but i can see how the act of subjugating and raping your enemies to be appealing, especially if it was a proud female lord being put in her place. also dont forget all the slaanesh stuff in the game which is coomer by nature.
>>583145828I RP as beastmen
>>583146076JeetAnon...
>>583145841This has stuff beyond larping iirc. Like per-turn tribute which is absent in vanilla diplomacy panel. Or investment deals, where AI can borrow gold and then return it with interest.

@grok combine total warhammer 1, 2, and 3 into one GIANT EPIC CAMPAIGN
>>583146713Great idea for an RP campaign. Although I don't think you can break Archaon no matter how hard you try.LLs have their personalities hardcoded. It's tweakable of course if you know your way around under the hood of it all, but that would be cheating and cheating is bad, mkay.

Middenheim is amazing because I get to spam melee units and juice them up to ridiculous degree to the point where I no longer have to think during battles. My units will simply win because they are better. Also it was quick and easy to get this powerful, I didn't have to spend 80 turns to get here. Any other campaigns like this?
>>583148904No this is the only melee faction
Thoughts on Alarielle?

I am so tired of archaon being challenged every two turns. I can do almost nothing with him because I am too afraid of losing a lord.

Holy shit Khalida start is aids after the update, the minor VC faction shits out like 3 full stacks by turn 3 and all their lords straight up wreck Khalida 1v1+ they keep going around the mountain and reacpturing everything since you have only 1 army and can't defend both sides

Total War is once again confirmed BULLSHIT
>>583150984For Kangs it gives them a new lore of magic along with a Spellcaster lord, a support hero and the Khemric Titan(Dread Saurian for a Kang).Counts benefit from the rework more than anything but also get the new Lore of UndeathThey get Spirit Hosts(Insane defensive unit against early armies but crumbles near instantly to magic attacks) Lahmian Handmaidens are your Aspiring Champions(tiny unit size but insane stats per model)Drakenhof Templars are your anti-large equivalent to Blood KnightsCoven Throne is a great support chariot that focuses on buffs instead of healing.All Coast got was the new lore, other than that they got nothing.Unfortunately Morghasts are exclusive to Nagash.

>>583150984Neferata is the best thing about the patch and all of the new shit she can use is free except the coven throne I think
>Keeping a vampire lair gives a stacking -1% global upkeep and +20 blood per turn>Just keep spamming summon necromancer, discover a new crypt & teleport necro there and after 25 of them it pays for itself
>>583149141The coomer mod for her is really impressive and having the option to do a heel-turn as a good guy faction and switch corruption types and go cross-faction is really really really fun, but the porn popups last way too long and the formatting for them is really janky. You can tell Total War wasn't built to support long prose. I would probably like the mod more if I could play it without the sex scenes. Also, I wish the game would let me become someone else's vassal, having N'kari as a military ally instead of my master once the full heel turn happens doesn't feel right with the narrative it's pushing.As for unmodded, she's kinda really, really boring. If I wanted to play a High Elf, I'd play Aislinn because he appeals to my playstyle in strategy games and all of the High Elves are pretty faceroll so him being broken isn't that much of a concern
>>583150918>>583150332This system is by admission like this exclusively because the guy who headed the rework doesn't like managing land after a confederation. Is there no mod that removes the Vampiric Remnants thing yet?
>>583152209All 4 are mixed reviews bro it's over the hype is dead and we're all playing Karl Franz
>>583152209>Also which is the least buggy?Probably Boris. He practices basic hygiene and doesn't worship the disease god. Also isn't a walking corpse.
>>583138201glotkin are probably least bugged because they dont do anything.

>>583153143I'm fine with the not getting massive land via confed, lorewise it makes perfect sense.I'm just noticing that I have isabella and isabella is on the map at the same time.
>>583153143I can put up with not getting land. It will be mine either way soon anyway. But pushing this change on a faction with all sorts of heroes and lord mechanics without triple checking that they were taken into account is just retarded.
>>583138201>>583152209Only got Nagash because I think Nurgle is boring and am not super fond of Empire or Skaven (Thanquol's startpos is a cool one though, I think it helps spice up that area)Being a faction that everyone hates by default and needs to take lots of land to do anything is bizarre when everything you have trickles up to only benefitting one dude (who can only be in one place at a time) is a real headscratcher
>>583153357Glottkin and Nurgle are probably filled with bugs and maggots and shit its really buggy down there.
>>583153546>>583153432I know, I don't really mind it either (I usually only confed as good guy factions or Greenskins). But a mod to make their confederation not weird would bypass all those problems

>The creator of one of the most popular Total War: Warhammer III mods ever has deliberately corrupted it so that it will no longer work with “unauthorized reuploads,” amid a row over the rights and wrongs of AI-generated modifications.>Veteran modder Venris has created Simply Fun Overhaul (SFO) mods for Total War: Warhammer for years, with a popular Patreon helping in the development of the latest version, SFO: Grimhammer III. The mod overhauls the base game to be closer to the lore and Warhammer universe, changing everything from the campaign and battle mechanics to the economy and customization.>Recently, people have used AI to release sub mods of SFO: Grimhammer III that work with updated versions of the main, Creative Assembly-developed video game, without asking permission. In response, Venris corrupted their own mod so that it stops working with these uploads, and threatened to make SFO: Grimhammer III private.>“Due to the growing number of unauthorized reuploads of SFO: Grimhammer III, and more importantly, the use of AI in the process, I have deliberately corrupted the mod to prevent it from functioning with such unauthorized uploads,” Venris said in a statement published online. “If this situation continues to escalate, I will make SFO: Grimhammer III private.>“SFO: Grimhammer is the result of nearly 10 years of passion and love for this community and the fantasy world.

>>583156909Snailcats fight AI everyday and everyday AI wins
>>583157424Fuck no they are not shit. Jade Lancers are armoured, fast and can stack enormous charge bonuses. And since you have access to life magic longmas are basically unbeatable. Cathay being a noobbox outrange faction doesnt mean you cant use their cav very effectively.

After playing a whole the new Vampire Counts, i can now say that the rework made them less fun than beforePros of the rework (improved from pre-rework):>The new custom vampire feature is fucking great>Tech tree and unit recruitment splitting the more necro-focuses units and the more vamp-focused onesCons of the rework (worsened from pre-rework>I miss the old system of being allowed to insta recruit powerfull armies from places where big battles were fight>Corruption now is janky to spread and overall weaker>New confederation is utterly retarded. Why vamps are the only faction in the game to not taking the confederate lords provinces?

I'm kinda confused by people who say Nagash campaign is challenging. you guys do know he unlocks a zombie dragon spawn at level 7 right? Beginning was slightly challenging and I had to restart once but other than that it's been fairly easy. Here's my Legendary experience after having completed the campaign.>Go west whilst building up defenses in Black Pyramid for the inevitable Setra attack>Defeat my starting enemy then attack ogres>Defeat them and take the oasis>This was a mistake as Volkmar could apparently recruit 3 full stacks>I had assumed he and Mannfred would go up against each other instead he attacks my weakened army>Despite the odds I almost won. I killed Volkmar, all his heroes and lords but lost to around 7 archers and crossbows that were left.>Could've holed up in the Black Pyramid and rebuild but decided to restart>Next time I attacked the ogre camp then peaced out with them and went straight for Volkmar and killed him off. >Wurrzag then dow me which was the only big challenge in this campaign>After beating him I headed south to wipe him out whilst collecting books.From what I've read most people fight Setra but I think this is a mistake. In my campaign he and Skarbrand have been keeping each other busy. In the south the same is true for Teclis and Kairos. Also something fun I've never seen before is Golgfag wiping out the Empire and most of Bretonnia fairly early. First time I've seen an ogre lord be that effective. I also realized Ogres are the hard counter to Nagash as many of his spells are meant to deal with small entity blobs.Anyway fun campaign but more of a power fantasy than normal playthrough.
>>583165473sluts
>>583165473( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°)
>>583165518yeah it was pretty easy. I didn't even see Setra in playthrough.
Thorgrim feels much more dynamic now, I got the tools to handle all the bullshit but after the first dozen or so turns it's just putting out fires all the time. I wanted to help the remains of Franz out because Vlad took almost everything in the Empire but there's no time.Every direction there's always a war already happening or it's only a few turns away from being declared.Archeon is showing up in 8 turns and I don't feel ready.
>>583165702Same. I think a lot of people attack him which is a huge mistake. I let him and Skarbrand have a 30 turn war while I conquered the Southlands, sailed to recruit Luthor and went book collecting.
>>583165473what is this gift in lore?

tyrion just sent 3 full stacks into the Galleon graveyard to get insta wiped while we are getting atacked by dark elves, N´kari and chaos...
>>583164841I agree with your stance on the changes but I think they are overall a lot more fun. Not being able to recruit late game units early via raise dead is a bummer but I like that it's now more consistent and I think being able to pay blood to pull a level 20 lord with a stack out of thin air makes up for it.

>>583169248Valkia
I think Neferata needs a Manipulation producing building.Having a manipulation producing commandment is nice, but eventually you want to change to evocation of nagash so you can get the sweet sweet bonuses from undead wasteland.As a result, the more of the world she owns the less she can use her campaign mechanic.

Toddy is ready to shove it deep inside of Archaon.
>>583174194I know anons already explained why this sounds like nobody could @ archaon on chaos discord but it is pretty funny to imagine Archaon going from fortress to fortress in the chaos wastes having feasts and shit like it's mount and blade. Even his new lines are about uniting the north and having them rally behind him. Being a northman must be pretty comfy.
>>583171876I mean they almost exterminated the skaven back in the day because they found some entrances to their under-empire. If you can eat skaven, you can eat literally anything.
Multiple times now I've seen enemy armies run away twice after getting defeated in the same turn, when before I swear they always got wiped out on the second battle in the same turn. Just now I had to >Manual battle khalida>remnants of her army skedaddle back a few steps>chase them and autoresolve whats left>THEY RUN AWAY AGAIN>I run out of movement. Did this always happen or is this another fun feature™ of 9.0?
>>583144395She's bald
>>583174807oh and this is another new thing I've noticed probably tied to the double flee bug but enemy armies can now have no lord?
wtf this seems super op
>>583174994They could since WH1. This only happens when you beat lords and the AI can't recruit a new one to lead the army by the time you attack them again.
>>583175020yes
>>583174807That's probably an interaction with the dead rise again feature
>>583174807>>583174994if you kill their lord it counts as a new army iirc
>>583172748Swarmlord
>>583175020
>>583172748There won't be one. 40k won't have many LLs and it'll have procgen campaigns, so the game won't ever have much shared experiences for people to discuss.
>>583175740If CA are smart they will live service slop it like helldivers 2 except make it less clearly rigged.

>>583177197That's not what thanquol meant when she said "let them eat rats"
>>583177623Whoah, Arkhan is not gonna like what they're saying about his mom...
>>583175740Honestly this is why I have my doubts about TW40k.Everything they revealed about it suggests they're going the live service slop like >>583175948 said, but the kind of games they're aping require you to be in, playing, and done within an hour at most.That would suggest Total War mini campaigns that don't last longer than 20 turns and that's assuming there's still a lot more streamlining we haven't seen yet.Alternatively they have to go the paradox route of focusing on long campaigns with your friends and major game updates are locked behind DLC.They've suggested the former, but it's easy to see them pivot to the latter, both of which are awful.
>>583171876Ogres eat everything including Daemons(in limited amounts), they were part of The Old Ones' final project along with Halflings, designed from the ground up to be resistant to chaotic forces. But the polar gates collapsed before they were completed and so they're stupid and their chaotic resistance is not perfect(as seen with Plague Ogres which are caused by an Ogre being exposed to large-scale Nurgle corruption continually over a vast stretch of time).
>>583163575>He doesnt knowInfinite new 'load out' primaris troop DLC forever.
>>58317810940k will be their biggest success ever, 40k games always sell no matter how bad they are.
What "boot" is this tfrules guy talking about?
>>583178265Rogue Trader only broke 1 million like 18 months after it came out.The 40k Plants vs Zombies clone is one or those games that GW prefers to pretend never happened.Back when TB was alive he talked about the endless 40k slop that no one liked.40k games have that reputation now, but we're one Eternal Crusade away from people remembering 40k games are mostly terrible.
>>583175740I doubt we'll get Primarchs but every Space Marine DLC will probably feature a premade chapter designed with that DLC's units in mind, for example a hypothetical DLC with Terminator variants will include a pre-built Dark Angels chapter or its successors.>>583178265This worries me though, 40k is such a slam dunk that will rake in millions on launch that i'm worried CA will grow complacent and that the game will suck and be carried by the setting(like Battlesector, Gladius, SM2, the multiple hearthstone rip offs etc)
>>583178109A lot of people are in for a rude awakening once we learn more about 40k. I can feel it, it's going to be disappointing.
>>583178461The powers that be are pushing AI, this means that liking AI is tangentially an endorsement of said powers that be and any form of positivity surrounding the powers that be is bootlicking.Supporting AI mods is downstream from supporting AI putting artists out the job which is the big thing that mindbroke so many normalfaggots.I am pro AI mods because fuck the Robieclique and their gatekeeping of mod-making tools.
Undead colors are stupid in wh3.Too bright and saturated. And there's no real dark/black faction, like Mannfred used to be.
>>583178461He's probably absorbing a lot of the news about how much tech companies that fund AI are the only thing stopping a global financial collapse, and as a result associates all of AI with the idea of them being the controllers and manipulators behind why the world sucks right now.
>>583176860How can I possibly go to war with such a country?
Is this a reddit ratfag in the first battle in a tehenhauin campaign?
>>583178771that's ehhh what's his name zombie guy color?
>>583178775>tech companies that fund AI are the only thing stopping a global financial collapseThere's a possibility of a global financial collapse precisely because they've absorbed a ridiculous amount of money promising "Just two more weeks and it'll start returning on investment!". Now it's those very same techbros who are going all "Whoah whoah whoah, guys, we need to stop with the AI before we get skynet'd."
>>583178914No the reddit rat is a generic Grey Seer lord recruitable by Thanquol.
>>583171789>Help, I can't make the mod like this!!>Ok. Here, I vibecoded a bunch of fixes>NOOOOOOOOOO NOT LIKE THIS, I WANTED MONEY
>>583178765>Robieclique and their gatekeeping of mod-making tools.I thought they were pretty open on the modding discord, no?Most of my modding interactions have been on the lewd modding discord admittedly and those guys will help out in loads of ways, so I assume the other one is decent enough.>>583178771TWW3 used a new lighting engine to make it so the different shades of red/pink/green stick out more on daemon units.Every faction designed for TWW1's darker and more grim lighting suffers as a result.TWW2 factions also suffer some, but not as bad because they were built for more flat lighting.
>>583178775I like how the people causing the issue try to market themselves as the solution to the issue that exists solely because of them.
will we ever get a real age of sigmar game? I game realms of ruin an honest try but it just wasnt good which is odd because it was just dawn of war but sigmar. is the setting just inherently bad?
>>583179243>and those guys will help out in loads of wayswould you say they're always willing to "lend a hand"? haha yes man yes. would you say they're always willing to "give you a handjob"??? hahaaaaaaaa.
>>583171789>>583179196The thing that gets me is that it would be simple to say "let's use claudecode to fix the fact that databases changed so all of the references need changing".If Venris did that, made SFO playable but said "right now Vamps/Nagash and End Game Crisis either don't work or are disabled", he could have been fine.Holding the whole mod hostage because he didn't want to release it until it's done..."Piracy is a service problem."
>>583179129okay then why is there a named rat unit in this garrison on turn one? Is this a character from one of the books or something

>>583183446I understand why it's not the case anymore, but I do love in old lore where that's kind of how Vlad was described.It mentions him having loads of undead, but they mostly existed to spook people and keep enemies away from his screaming skull catapults while he charged into melee and tore apart elite knights.

>>583183712I think the issue is less that and more people don't understand the difference between society and instinct.Instinct says do whatever is necessary to helpYourself > Your Brother > Your family > Your Clan > Your Tribe > Your people In that order.Society says, if everyone makes sure everyone has access to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, then we all benefit.We may disagree on many aspects of what it means to be happy, but if we are not actively impeding others, then who is to be upset with us for going for our own happiness?In old days this was reinforced by hangings/executions of those who broke the basic laws of society.The horse rustler for example, while it sounds insane to kill someone for stealing a horse to many, back when they were executed it was because horses were essential tools for life (and later liberty), and to breach societal trust in such a way as to impede that was seen as a reason to publicly execute someone to remind everyone else that Society exists.There are certainly those in our world who believe themselves higher and greater than the rest of us, and those people believe that as a result they do not need to care about the simple rules of society that allow everyone to live and pursue happiness.To those people, I think it is a shame that we no longer hang horse rustlers.
>>583183856I will not. I play as Tehen spiritually even when I am not playing as him in every campaign. All rats must die.Shoot rats. Stab rats. Hit rats with heavy objects. Blow up rats with artillery. Blow up rats with magic. Suppress rats with your faith. Bite rats with your mount. Kick rats. Throw things at rats. Call allies to war with rats. Trick neutral parties into fighting rats. Pay people to fight rats. Assassinate rats with your own agents. Run rats down with cavalry. Send dogs to eat rats. Ignore world ending chaos invasion to fight rats. Ignore world ending undead rising to kill rats.ALWAYS FIGHT RATS FIRST UNTILL ALL RATS ARE DEAD.

Delf NATO defeated. A sprawling mass of High Elf colonies dot the new world, its natives brought under the power of High Elf Influence>Goblintide!And then there's these huge epic endgame battles emerging from the state of the world and Sarthorael is there and everyone's like "Hello Sarthorael from Warhammer 1!"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGCFP4gbOzwThis came as news to me. It's powerful but holy shit is it frustrating that like 95% of the most powerful VC landmarks are located within two or three provinces of marching from Castle Drakenhof. That covers everything from the Silver Pinnacle to Nuln to Altdorf to Mordheim, not to mention Drakenhof itself. And many of the landmarks are relatively low tier so you can get them early. If Ghorst wants a landmark worth investing in he has to fight through Greasus, Drazhoath, and Imrik to get to Nagashizzar. And over in the Black Pyramid it takes like 20 turns to build the Vault of Nagash. Christ the Sylvania start is stacked.
>>583190727Get licking, Robie.>>583190770Well Minecraft steve can walk up and pickaxe Margit The Fell Omen so Archaon can't be too far away.>>583190783Soon.
>>583190498Yea, There was a big announcement on the SFO Dicksword. You need to go to the Steam Workshop to get the mod now. I shan't be DL-ing the mod now. I mean, I joined their Dicksword on a whim without being convinced to use the mod, and this deffo convinced me not to use it. This is just consumer hostility.
>>583190498In this case it's because russians stole the dude's mod, had claude reverse-engineere it, then made claude-coded spinoff mods with his stolen codebase that they released independently without crediting him (largely behind paywall sites).He corrupted the files so that Ivan and Xing would have nothing to steal.

Had to abandon my Nagash campaign. Not feasible or worth the effort to actually win it because the Mortach system doesn't really work as intended whilst the Vamps are so overtuned. All the Counts and Coast lords are sitting at 15+ provinces (Vlad is nearly 30). Anyone else had this issue? Mannfred is also absolutely plowing outwards.
I really like how CA insisted on the "Neferata likes cats" theme.
>>583191861She's a woman. Course she likes cats.
reminder that nagash reads bookshe casts spells by reading bookslook at this fucking dorkhe dosent even need to do thatyou got some bitchass hero caster who can cast shit without reading some fucking bookfuck you and fuck your book reading faggot lordbitch
>>583191861But the black cat ancillary isn't a skeleton cat.
>>583192003women do not like cats as much as men stfu they like em on a surface level, whenever i see some shit about a mistreated and neglected cat, chances are it's a retarded foid that got too caught up in their wine drinking and crying about men and whoring so she forgot about them like some toy i would do anything for my cats, men love them more, I've left work hours early when I forgot to feed my cats some mornings, women might "like" cats but they don't love them

Surprised I haven't seen even one person post about what happens if a vampire faction gets wiped out if you're Nagash, doesn't seem like that ever happens anymore. Could you still confed them if they get wiped?
>>583193212>cat-centered>it's all fanfiction garbage except for Neferata
>>583193345yes, u just get the listed bonuses n their ll to recruit

>>583193907Go back wherever you came from. I expel you, retard. Vade retro.
>>583193226This is true, but in order to win the campaign you have to engage with the Mortach system.
Um..The IP is named Warhammer.Empire has the titular Warhammer.Empire are the main characters.Hope this helps.
>>583193345All confed mechanics work on dead factions.For undead it even makes sense since high tier necromancers and all vampires can't actually move on to the afterlife, their souls just get scattered until powerful enough necromancy pulls them back together.
>>583193998Um anon you just have to use your own heroes to counter assassinate their heroes. The game provides you with the tools to deal with any problem you only have to use it
>>583194124Literally who?Anyway, let's talk about YinYin
>>583194124Ackshually the titular hammer is Harry's WHO REALLY SHOULD HAVE BEEN A LL.
>>583194509Oooohhhh, so that's why the game is called Warhammer. I love harald
>>583193998Just recruit a million high-level astromancers from that city with the massive astromancer buff and delete all enemy heroes while stealing a billion technologies from other factions just like real China does.
>beat down Tamurkahn>subjugate him>his province including the dark fortress just goes to some generic nurgle faction>can't get it nowthis shit is so fucking infuriating. i should be able to force a vassal to give me a settlement since i fucking own them but no i can'ti hate how CA puts mechanics like this in game but doesn't test them at all
>>583193998There's a mod that makes AI agents passive. Improves the game dramatically until they revert it to what it was like before 9.0.
>>583194647Are you retarded?

>>583194647For tammy you need to *kill* him in his fortress. It's a considerably tougher fight but you should get the prompt to immediately occupy it, then after will be given the option to confed him.That way you get both the fortress AND the LL. I agree it's a retarded system that requires you to meta game to get around it.

is this an optimal end times stack for archaon?
Hey guys, how am I supposed to win this? 5 turns ago Glottkin declared war on me so I recruited Findol and hired an army. About the best I could get in 5 turns, just finished. If Glotckin attacks with Lamont Dahl they obliterate Laurelorn Forest and The Empire takes it. If I sit in ambush stance Glottkin alone has some skill that deletes my eternal guard instantly. Just, press button, delete infantry. So if I ambush with the garrison I lose and he burns Laurelorn Forest down and the empire takes it. How do I win this? I can go back 5 turns and hire a different army but it would have to be taken out of global recruitment and that would stall the army recruiting in global to defend against Skulltaker at the Sacred Pools.Also fuck this power creep bullshit. I can't babysit every forest with Orion, the sisters and Durthu
>>583185215It's always kinda been the curse of total war, dealing with The Bloat. In the early-mid game you'll have a couple of armies, and each one will be kinda doing their thing and you'll be getting some steady meaningful progress on a handful of fronts. Like, say you're playing Karl Franz, early mid-game, you might have like one threat you're dealing with at one time and one or two armies to deal with it, like you're clearing out the nurgle guy in hochland. Every turn you're getting to put your attention on the same theatre of war, and the Thing You Want To Do is something you're constantly doing.But then mid-late game you wind up with so many armies that the real-life time between each individual army achieving a decade is like literal hours. Progress gets split between so many theatres that everything slows to a crawl.Would be real refreshing to just be able to focus on one thing at a time.

>>583200627it'll be some months before the next dlc but the brettonia rework is in 2 short weeks
>>583200627Nippon announcement in December
>>583199325It might be soulless, but I think that a stack of 17 starfire glade guard would be better. I'd either defend the city with 17 starfire glade guards or do a field battle using chequerboard formation, probably disabling control large army, but ammo might end up being an issue depending on what units they bring. If they have overwhelming numbers, maybe whittle them down by getting them to attack you in a field battle and trying to inflict as much damage as possible before withdrawing units off the map as the enemy gets close. Then hopefully your army retreats to reinforcement range of the city and you can now fight their weakened forces. You can also try to do this with your current army, but I think that just 6 ranged units isn't going to do enough damage.Also, maybe someone can correct me if I'm wrong on this, but at the moment if your starfire glade guard friendly fire into your treekin, they do extra FF damage due to flaming attacks.
>>583198574Mad that his rotten putrid freaks are stronger than your rotten putrid freaks
>>583200718Wood elf t1s still have fire whilst moving you can freeform formations with them more
I just remembered a fun battle from a decade ago.Was playing coop with fren, played dawi, was attacked by grimgor, battle was unwinnable. Game randomly had an aneurysm and enabled the "take control" button that's only in pvp campaigns. My mate took control of the greenskins, put them all in a circles looking inwards so I could shoot em dead with max efficiency. I felt bad for the greenskins.
>>583201057With wood elf units, I've found that they get stuck in the "running" state after they use fire whilst moving and then they don't fire as much as they should. So then I have to keep manually stopping them to fix their fire behaviour. Maybe that bug has been fixed by now, but it really put me off using it.
>>583200712>>583200714I don't want more IM bloat. I want a new smaller campaign. There are like a million "mini" campaigns they can adapt from Warhammer like Battle for Albion.
>>583201391I make retreat whilst shooting formations don't ask me about the shenanigans but it works. They fire better when they aren't moving but it doesn't mean you can't use it
>>583200714they need to fill in Cathay some more since right now it's absolutely barren compared to the Old World and Lustaria areas of the map
>>583199325If you can just hire a bunch of the t2s and fight in open field and they don't have enough fast stuff it's essentially free. Zoats counter all tiers of cav but you probably cant just get those, tree kin can hold them. Not like you don't have the money for it. Starfire+forest map with walls will be more economical. Clearly they have zero ranged so it's shoot them before they get to you. Not sure how much of a problem glottkin is himself since ive never had to fight against him

>>583203214Do you choose your end times or something or is it rando ive never played after long vic game is kind of a meme after turn 10 in general
now for the end end battle.
i will now play luthor through nagashits still luthor so its ok
>>583191092his bf (venris) told him so
>>583204001They really don't belong in warhammer. They look like more gay 40k clowns.
reminder>>583107035
When it comes to archaon confed is it kill their leader with anyone or kill their leader with archaon?
>>583204534oops meant to link >>583107586
Why would you used the Coven Throne mount rather than the dragon? I don't even see a use case for the Coven Throne over a Mortis Engine, or Corpse Cart lodestone.
>>583204589You can kill the leader with anyone (or conquer their last remaining settlement if their leader isn't around, though it's a little bugged)However, if the faction is wiped out by ANOTHER faction, you get a dillema at the start of your turn where you get the option to summon them over to archaon with a jacked out high tier army and you acquire their LL if you beat them.
>>583182005The amount of fuckery with the End Times was absolutely insane, but the one that still makes me kek is with the main mortal Chaos Champions>Sigvald, Valkia and Festus all die but are resurrected/ somehow alive in Age of Shitmar>Vilitch and Thommin technically survive but don’t make it to Shitmar (their unit like a lot of former named ones becomes a generic general choice instead)
>>583204220>PyrrhicOnly because of Archaon's cheats... surely? Right bros??
>>583204737In theory it's free and early access to a unit needed to play pile of violence, for people who play with cuck caps.The dragon is a huge hinderance in the moshpit..In reality it just makes the AI neferata look even dumber.
>>583205049He fights to the last!
>>583205254My fuarking hero...
chaos has been permanently killed. don't f!#^ with toddy.
>>583205030Fucking Gutrot Spume survived into AOS somehow. and Vilitch isn't just a generic Curseling model. For all the memes about killing Slaanesh, the god GW really seems to hate the most is Tzeentch.
>>583205254My goat... why is his healing cap so high?
and here is how busted toddy is at 50. i don't think he took any damage at all in the final battles vs archaon.
>>583205609Holy shit those stats are terrible. My lvl 10 lahmian vamp rocks 110MD
>>583205446archaon survived..........
>>583205686time for the end times 2...
okay now that's too far i'm done with this toddy campaign.who do i do next?
>>583206051thanquol now, friend!
I wish some one makes an Old world map where all the Elector Counts are playable.
>>583206278@grok Make me an Old world map where all the elector counts are playableWith SFO. Without asking for permission. No mistakes. Max effort!
>>583206051Archaon.
>>583206051ThanquolFirst job? Rape Toddy.
>>583206664Thanquol doesn't even go near the empire.
>>583206865ITS A SANDBOXHE GOES DAMN WELL WHERE I TELL HIM
>>583202339kys coomer
I don't into chaos which of these are worth recruiting other than melee infantry
>>583206962No.The AI decides where u go by declaring war on you at random. And since Vlad loves you, the dawi and orks hate you, you go mountain clearing.Then Vpad loves you more, tretch wants your russy and the chaos dawi hate you so you go clear that. And then grimgor or cathay happen and you go do that. And then end game spawns and you do that. And then you are burned out and quit before ever seeing the empire.
>>583207336Sorry but I can just trade settlements to make any faction I want love me.
>>583206962>waah I deserve to have fun! I deserve to have fun!"No" - CA
Ghehehehhehahahaheheheh
>>583207257everything but the dreadmaw is gooddogs arent amazing but they have a niche in chasing niggas down but you have 4 horsies already so i'd ignore them
>>583207416Ah, you are one of those gender bent rats that bend knee to other races. Got it.
I pray to Ulric. He will protect us.
>>583207568Peak thanquol gameplay, it's all a part of a masterplan yes yes
My friend said she once had a few pet ratsOne day she came home and one rat was suspiciously laid on the floorShe went to take a closer look, the other rats after that one rat and he was hollow on the insideNever trust rats
>>583207662I'm not falling for that. You are slaaneshi filth in disguise
>>583207504I'm off to go fight Glottkin and other "confederatable" chaos my other army is trailing behind. Still effectively broke with 2 towers but I can get a giant or a shoggoth or something. Are dread maws that bad I've never used them
>>583205446Nice. Thoughts on Toddy's campaign?
>>583207947Dread maws are one of those that are retarded strong if you happen to be the AI because they need extensive microing and for some reason have worse line of sight issues than handgunner. Those aren't an issue for a robot ofc.
ULRIC'S TAINTRETREAT
>Play Toddy>Rape Karl first thing>Bbut thats not the lore!Don't care.FuckKarl.
>>583205575>the god GW really seems to hate the most is Tzeentch.And now they’re in a pickle with how well SM2 did and how much people liked the Thousand Sons and Imurah. Given all the fucked-up shit you can theoretically do with Tzeentch models and how good they look when not fucked-up (e.g. Thousand Sons Marines, Chaos Lords of Tzeentch etc. looking resplendent), it does make me wonder why GW fuck Tzeentch regularly despite very clearly being hampered with what they can do with Slannesh and Nurgle at times.
>>583208334Nice
>>583208405>SM2 did and how much people liked the Thousand Sons and ImurahYOu fucking what?Literally near impossible to get groups for chaos maps 1 week after an update.No one likes Thousand Sons more because SM2 and Imurah is a literal who, even to people who have played the campaign.
>>583208334>>583208438delete these
>>583208109Easily the most powerful empire lord with his abilities. All of his new units are pretty busted too. Him and the new seneschals lords get the Lu Bu bonus where they get AP back on victories, even after taking towns. I've had turns where I took 3+ towns in a single turn if the settlements are close enough. The new priest of ulric can also give replenishment in enemy territories along with super powerful combat abilities and buffs. The temple of ulric mechanics can magically give any army 8 reinforcements for a single battle along with other bonuses like totally refilling their AP so they can act again same turn. There's is also another mechanic where you can instantly recruit cult of ulric units anywhere instantly like merc recruitment.Overall a very easy mode campaign. Kind of invalidates Franz at this point unless you want to RP holding the emperor together, not like it matters. I personally like Elspeth more because imperial guns are cooler but he's a good campaign for beginners.
>>583208405>how much people liked the Thousand Sons and ImurahWhy are you equating the game's popularity to Imurah's popularity? He and that entire faction fucking suck.
>>583208619Nyo
>>583208795>Nyothe beastmen cats strike again...
>>583207257Trolls are straightforwardly good. Beat stick you send at elite units like lords and cavalry. They're upgradable into the armored trolls (decent) and bile trolls with nurgle (honestly kinda OP)Dragon Ogres are extremely good, they're like a super elite cavalry. They're like your dedicated anti-elite tool, if your enemy has anything scary you can send the dragon ogres to beat it to death. I like to have them run together in squads alongside chaos knights, protecting them from large units and making use of the chaos knigts as anvils to hammer from.Giants are famously weak to missiles with their low speed and low armour. If you're fighting fellow chaos types or greenskins then it's worth it, it moves with your infantry to support against heavy armour. Don't take them in against kislev or empire or dwarfs or such.Manticores are pretty mid but pretty cheap. Sadly can't be upgraded.Poison hounds are just better than regular hounds; I never recruit regular hounds 'cause you can have poison ones instead. They're extremely extremely good at killing enemies that are running away, and extremely bad at a straight up fight against a melee unit. They've got a lot of use for eating unarmoured archers and for dragging down faster units so that your slower units can catch up.Chaos spawn are also decent, though you can upgrade Forsaken into Nurgle/Tzeentch/ect Forsaken which can be upgraded into Nurgle/Etc Chaos Spawn which are better - but you can't upgrade chaos spawn into Nurgle/etc chaos spawn annoyingly.The worm is really weird. Not necessarily bad though. Requires you to remember to activate them.Where did your starting army go?
>>583208945THE NAME IS KHATRAK ONE EYE YOU FILTHY HUMAN
>>583209089I killed boris and then wanted to go collect the pokemon. It was that or malakai. It's just trailing behind will probably split after to go collect azazel and sigvald
siege rework in 2 weeks
>Maads map on nagashAaaand its over, took the entire donut over in one turn. Got bored and did mass summon auto resolve spam since he is at 100% rez for the army. The trick is killing your army off on purpose in harder manual battles when they get to low health and necropolis hopping for maximum necromantic energy by selling them to a vassal for free.
>>583209108that doesn't look like a ra roo...
>>58320974716th siege rework's the charm
>>583209820Forgot webm
>>583209882U don't look like a raa roo, BITCH

>>583210716Don't the cat!!
Winnable? Map is favorable
>>583209747>>583210010>Siege rework>When enemy attacks you lets you fight outside your keep>When attacking the enemy give you the option to fight them outside but gives them a ward buff from 10% to 25% depending on tech level
>>583211212I believe in you.
>>583211212Fuck no, Glottkin gonna solo u, heh.
>>583211219weren't they getting rid of the ass ladders?
>>583211212Honestly probably not. Glottkin are absurd to fight.
>trying to get siege weapons to fire outside the walls as a defender instead of them just being "obstructed" by nothing>trying to order any unit off a wall>trying to do literally anything in a defensive siege other than corner camp on Victory Plaza and fast forwarding until the army gets there so you can vortex them
>>583211219Are you retarded?>hey tens of thousands of citizens, I'mma go outside while that huge force is rolling our way. They totally won't walk around me and kill u all, promise.
>>583211447Soon (not soon)
>>583208613>literal whoThe best sort of character. What, are you some tard who thinks it should have been Ahriman, Magnus and Kairos as boss fights for power level wank?
Do you think that Monkey King will have his own race like Nagash or do you think he will just be a Legendary Lord under Cathay?
>>583212024I don't think about him at all.
>>583211787No, no one cares about the literal who Ork Boss from the first game other than the was funny and died in badarse way. Magic nerds are innately boring.
>>583212024I hate the reddit ape and will mod him out but.. the only thing that makes sense is making him a DoW. The dude runs ogres, random people, beastmen, skaven, snakemen, whatever ind has.. that's not any faction
>Bored of Nagash campaign>Did not even make it to turn 60 when the End Times stuff would have spawned>Tried the Nagash final battle>Using x3 unit size>Have a very beefy PC>14900k Intel CPU>5080 GPU>Etc>Rats spawn>There is probably close to 30k units/bodies on the screen now>Game goes down to single digit frames and crashesSo this is the power of Nagash?
>Delfs have no LHWho else is missing these?
>>583211684Soon (for CA)
>>583211513>>583211413>>583211338He bleeds
>>583212421You cheated, I know u did.
>>583212421G-glottbros... Did we get too cocky?
i feel like for many lords and heroes at some point having an army in the stack is a total waste of money, thanquol and his demon hero are a recent example, im beatting everything with just these two, no army needed, in fact army is a gameplay detriment because i almost never actually fight since it wins 90% of fights in autoresolve alone
>>583212497I have no gameplay affecting mods(only better camera and shit) and I play on vh/vh. Shrug I think he just doesn't have some of his stronger army abilities yet
>>583212421>3 fire sorcerersWhat in tarnation?
>>583212609Have to make sure that fat fuck doesn't regrow
>>583212584He's level 17.. how did the AI fuck that up this badly.. he should have some 20k hp and shred everything around him.. stupid game..Now I lost 10 bucks because the AI is too stupid to beat you.
>>583212421Can a giant solo the Glottkin? What about 3 giants?
i really enjoy fighting with nagash and really hate fighting with every other unit that he has access to
>>583212907Can ku'gath solo glottkin?
i can solo your mom
>>58321296715 zombies, mortis engine, corpse cart(unholy lodestone), corpse cart(balefire), coven throne.Peak gameplay, trust.
>>583213168(respectfully)
>>583213168I can solo cultist chan
>>583213336to think a chaos cultist (female) would wear underwear
she cute
>>583213483We can't have all that glorious bloodshed and grandfather's diseases spill into the cooch, now can we?
did volkmar get any changes with the book campaign?
>>583213790He did, yes.
they intentionally programmed siege to focus heroes just to make me mad
why is volkmars bonuses so ass?
>>583212024I mean bhashiva is under cathay despite her technically being part of Ind.
>>583214005My fav is when like 3 towers keep pelting the one of my 10 heroes with least resistances while a faggot mage spam spirit leech overcast from behind blockers when I don't have any flying units.
>>583204185When you start a campaign, in the options you can pick>Random end game>Deselect the end game options you don't like>Or all of them, one after another

excuse me ca what the fuck is this shit i cant control him now neither disband or replace
>>583214053Years old guy, even then though +8 MD on a unit that stops holding when it dies entirely is huge
