Hey! I posted this at the end of the last general but just in case you had any opinions:Nagash can recruit all Undead units...Maybe Malekith should be allowed to recruit all Elf units.
>>583615284It don't matter, none of this matters, friend.
>>583615284Oh right, I need to start an Archaon campaign to try out the Everchosen mode....should I install the girl Archaon mod?
Taurox is stupidI feel like I would've done better if I didn't have an army with meHe just doesn't receive damage anymoreIt'd took a year, but I think he'd kill everyone solo
>tfw I am the only total war player who likes slow comfy campaigns>end times throw a brick at me everytime I am reaching the apex of my campaignI really need to put the timer forward to 150 turns, I don't like having to halt everything I'm doing just when things are getting good
>>583616064Then what's the problem?The times is here for shitters like you.Use it.
The new update already bores me. What's next?
Im going to start a dorf/chorf campaign what Lord?
I need another dark elf dlc and rework
>>583616204>shittersLegend really did a number on this community
>>583616369Which Delf faction has the most aesthetic dreadlady colors?
>>583616501I think Mamas boy has the best dooki colors
>>583616326Drazhoath da Erbetwen
>>583616316Monkey king on june 2027But yeah, the update is already getting stale
>>583616316>>583616626AdHd zoomers...
it's up to mannfred to face the hordes nagash is in the empire FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK THIS CAMPAIGN IS A SLOGGGGGG I STILL CAN'T AFFORD MORE THAN 3 STACKS it's getting old at htis point its turn 150
Imagine being Nagash and having your hush imprisoned to be used as a breeding toy by skaven, h-haha. What a horrible fate.
>>583616326Drazhoath buffs the coolest Chorf units.
>>583616064It would be cool if the game was more in depth than it is
>>583616720The update does have some issues. I am 90% through my Archaon campaign wth -25% upkeep and ward save now but it's hard to get new units and fighting vampires over and over to battle it out for place number 1 is getting old.
>>583616501Malekith. He uses the default dark elf color scheme from citadel.
>>583616915I can play faster, I just dont find any enjoyment going for the legend experience of conquering something or beating a stack every turn and making the most optimal decisions always.I find it a completely joyless way to play these games
>>583616732>I STILL CAN'T AFFORD MORE THAN 3 STACKSWhat the fuck are you doing?By the time Archaon showed up in my Nagash campaign I had Nagash with an army of T4 and T5 units, Arkhan with T4 and T5, Mannfred with mostly graveguard, black knights, and a few other things, Neferata with loads of handmaidens, and three vamp coast lords with lords with loads of mortars. Luthor put me into the negatives again when I got his ass, but the campaign was over at that point.What does your pyramid look like?How badly have you gotten cucked that you're at 13/9 necropolises?
>>583616369Dark Elves never got a rework unless you seriously count CA just tweaking the numbers and setting slaves to a global pool. I'd say dework if it made any sense as it's more fitting than a rework. It and the "Geomatic Web rework" are not really reworks
>>583617068The way CA just took away the DE slave mechanic and gave it to the chorfs is baffling to this day.
>>583615458Only if you go through an end times-themed quest after conquering the shrine of Asuryan
>>583617064idk i just got as many necropolises as i thought i needed to land of undead everythingpyramid is pic rel, i have nothing related to income i guess, I got units that I Find fun i can't afford to build up to tier 5 any necropolises except 2 settlements, im always at short of the main resource, this is the biggest slog campaign ive ever tried, at this point on empire i have like 40k per turn income with 10 stacks on this difficulty (hard)
>>583617395For my run I had every province set to +Souls, and was farming neighboring factions for souls (kills in a province next to your necropolis give loads of bonus souls), it was brutal, and I almost got fucked a few times until my Vamp Coast gunpowder stacks came online, but as long as you accept that money can go into the red sometimes as long as you're slaughtering loads of people and getting bonus souls, it's not a big issue.
>>583617395Everyone glazes this shit but it's literally the tech tree from Pharaoh upside down.
>>583617821>Pharaohno one played that
>>583617395Wierd. Nagash is hard at the start but once you get rolling with the first few sigils Nagash himself dominates everything.>i just got as many necropolises as i thought i needed to land of undead everythingYou don't. They really baited with it but you don't need to do much land of the dead at all and at the start all the area around the pyramid is good for farming. I see no reason to make any extra necropoli at the start until all your enemies are dealt with next to you and even then i usually just use the settra pyramid and only land of the dead stuff aroudn when I confed arkhan after he clears all his area. Then I work on the books for manny.
>>583615284The actual fetish is the knight's armor gets shattered to show the actual female inside, who no doubt gets "lighter" armor the next time.
>>583617821They glaze it because it's new to total war but nobody called it unique. A lot of the choices arent' meaningful trade offs too, they should have done better with it. But I still hope daniel gets a similiar system because he really needs it. Maybe each settlement you devote to a god could give the sigils and glory could be for buying new parts or gifts? A bit like beastmen.
I can't tell if my Nagash campaign got lucky, most of the people here are complete fucking retards, or half the people who play this game play on vh/vh but then whine that the game is too hard
>>583618103Any campaign that requires playing aggressively gives people trouble, since most TW players want to take time to slowly build up and defend each of their settlements instead of recognizing that offense is the best defense.
>>583618103it's nagashon most other factions u don't even need to do anything to get insane income, u get it naturally from building upthe land of the dead thing is a noobtrap
>>583618103VH is the default these days
>>583617821While we're on the topic of Pharaoh I feel like the Pillars of Civilization mechanic would have been really fitting to reuse
>>583618292The crazy thing is how good ports are for him. The +2% souls stuff barely adds up but holy shit the bone man is a pirate at heart.
>>583618553>Altdorf is a pillar of civilization>Couronne isn'tThe meltdown would be glorious.
>>583614372>>583616732manny cleaned up but it was a slog
>>583617821I haven't seen anyone glaze it (youtubers aren't people)It's alright at best, a good replacement for a tech tree but the empty spots that are just minor buffs kinda bore me.
>>583616793sex
>>583617821its literally just a regular ass tech tree with better presentation and overtuned op buffs
>>583617821no one plays pharaoh
>>583620283A shame, really.
why the fuck would i get a blood dragontheyre so afraid of buffing cav through them so whats the fucking pointnot to mention they get fucking nothing from bloodlineseven if i want a cav army i can just get an other caster that gets 500% intensity and have him buff cav better than this fagfuck you
CLOSE TO LAHMIAnever close enough...
FUCK YOU
yo, it's ya boy, ta drazh thaumancer! Can't play the game tho, the disk's all backed up, so I can't even use the siege giant in a new Chorf campaign or see the upgrades for the unit in the Chorf workshop. Ta movies are ta wazzocks!
>>583620337It was doomed from the start for trying to appeal to history players who badmouthed the shit out of it. Plus the setting didn't give much unit variety.
>>583617821Why would anyone glaze that fat pile of shit?
>>583620475cav cant be good. mpfaggots gonna have melti.
>>583620475Bad Dragon Lords and Striggy Lords are just for flavor.Necrach are the best casters though VCarstein are good because of their spell selectionLahmian are the best warriors in most cases.
>>583616479Endgame scenarios of one kind or another have been a franchise feature for at least twenty years. If you find them stressful but also don't know how to uncheck the box in the settings menu you are a shitter.
>>583616204I can only speak for the chaos invasion end times scenario but it just is not fun to have a billion armies spawn everywhere right next to you when you can't sustain enough armies to defend every front and when there is no way to build useful static defenses in the game.It's also a problem with random AIs declaring nonsensical wars on you and sending random stacks 10 turns later instead of fighting wars close to them.Having double movement range in the provinces you own or being able to build decent defenses (at significant cost) would go a long way towards making the campaign feel less shit to play.
>>583621185Blame CA's shit gamedesign, dunno.But again, you can just this off/make it happen later.
IN WHAT WORLD ARE THE NIGRATCH BUFFS AND BLOOD DRAGON BUFFS ARE THE SAME2% WOM COST IS EQUAL TO MUH MELEE ATTACK???????? FUCK YOU TWG
>>583621359I know, I know, I'm not >>583616204 anyways.I just find the campaign layer horrid dogshit
>>583621447You don't get the necrarch buff for the -2% WoM.You get it for the +100 Research Points.If that completes a research the research completes same turn instead of next turn.It's bugged with blood rites though, so don't use it on a blood rite.
I really suck at tomb kings damn.
well hello there aspiewhat made you think im talking about the faction buffsnvm who caresgo fuck yourself retard
>>583621632I 100% agree.I wish Total Warhammer's campaign layer was entertaining. I recently tried doing a Neferata campaign where aside for dealing with my neighbor chorfs so I could build a solid protective line around my territory, I only used covens to cause wars, diplomacy, and once I had enough manipulation, to nuke entire provinces and then use necromancer lords to colonize them without anyone getting angry with me.Up until I got to that point in the campaign, it was the most boring shit ever because there is literally nothing to do on the campaign layer aside from pick fights.
>>583621185I have no idea why they didn't all just come from the north. It's loreful and the worst that happens is you have to wait a few turns for them to burn the empire or dark elves.
>>583622146At least if they'd tell you where the armies and Archaon himself will spawn a few turns in advance you could prepare better but nope
>>583616316>What's next?Bretonnia update.
>>583621447you dumb nigger. you press nechrach to get 100 tech progress.
>>583622146The devs said they considered having it all be from the north and south, but early in play testing they found issues of the player never finding archaon without it being a massive ball ache, or too much of the world getting destroyed before the player can reach feasibly deal with it.There are supposed to be massive stacking penalties and a true game-over if Archaon burns too much of the world, but I've not seen it or heard anyone talk about it.
>>583621447Actual fucking retard holy shit.
>>583622662i just hope ca wont make foot knights and just be creative like inventing tons of shit for cathay
>>583621853Go try one of the AI mods. The ones that allow you to actually talk to faction leaders and do all sorts of stuff on campaign map.There's talkhammer and some other one, don't remember how it's called. Either one is good for making turn based part of the game more interesting.
>>583622798thats up to GW
>>583622731It would have been awesome if the leaks were true and the end times were a proper scripted event that starts with the north uniting then kislev falling, and archaon destroyig the vortex. And the player has to try to stop everything or the next invasion will be even stronger.
>>583622915If I remember right the dev from the first set of streams confirmed that was the earliest version they were working on, but scripting it so effectively the entire world map would change (Ulthuan sinking for example), just wasn't workable in the engine. I suspect the devastation skins were to compensate for not being able to truly break everything.
really dude? already?
>nerferata sending out her handmaidens to get gobbo'd in every hole so they can steal away some gold from greenskins
Being a commoner in Bretonnia must suck. Can't be anything more than a meatshield.
>>583623943no thats thanquols thing
>>583623943It's ok vampires can't get pregnant.
>>583623452Their community manager just posted about Monkey King on reddit.https://www.reddit.com/r/totalwar/comments/50h3ni/
>>583623943Is Skarsnik fun?Last time I played him was in Warhammer 1.It was the most brutal campaign back then.
>>583623943Canonically greenskin blood tastes too much like raw root veggies.
>>583622731You're also supposed to get diplomacy bonuses with non-chaos factions during the invasion but it's a measly +5 lol, so you can have a bunch of cunts declare on you the turn before he shows up. Great.
>>583616326Drazhoath. Put your fireglaives in napoopan squares and cast flames of Azgorh all over everything.>>583616369Consider the following: Tullaris vs Yin Yin vs Vangheist
>If you dismiss/replace a lord from the menu they still get the stacking wounds debuffThis is mildly annoying
>>583622915>>583623413fuark that would've been kinoscripting in these games is good if it's not invasive. three kingdoms proves that
Going to play as one of the Southern Realms in The Old WorldWhat lord is fun? Tilean or Estalian culture? Or one of the weird offshoots?
>>583624478its an emotional wound
>>583624093fuck you
>>583624478They don'tFeel free to prove me wrong
Total War: Borderlands
>>583624131stalk stance op
>>583624001As long as you don't know any better (so basically never travel to the Empire or even the southern realms and accidentally find out your country is ass backwards by several centuries) and as long as you don't get drafted into a war and as long as your local baron/count/duke/whatever isn't an asshole or delegating on an asshole, it can be a pleasantly quaint life.So basically, like, maybe 2-3 of the dukedoms are alright so long as you never go through an invasion and you never look at your neighbors.

>slaanesh corruption mod>beastmen corruption modWhere's the nagash corruption mod where he turns every named character into a vampire or skeleton minion
If they ever rework Bretonnia, I hope they break up the factions into the individual dukedoms rather than the strange pair-up system they currently have.
>>583624001You can just escape the entire serf system by tagging along with the next Grail Knight you see. Instant freedom.
>>583626058Who is that supposed to beElspeth?

>>583626354Geabull.
>>583626703UNDENIABLE
>>583626475very good, now lets see the fps
>>583626058Highly dependent on faction. My current campaign is Glottkin and I am really feeling the lack of movement range heroes, but have tons of faction wide replenishment.
https://youtu.be/hW0TytuwpRAcan someone please do this for a TW game already? idk how to use claude
>>583626551My current mod load is 170. I am 30 turns into a ToW dawi campaign, with early End Crisis events and chaos just started.No crashes if you know what things do and why they do them. 3/4 of my mods are specific aesthetic changes though. Nothing too invasive.
>>583627058get drunk, take some pills, close your eyes, hallucinate whatever you want, done
>>583626475imagine the damage helstorms could cause
>>583626898Bretonnia. Deciding between Louen and Fay. They have a replenishment hero but no movement hero.
I lost all hope for getting anything in the future.
>>583626286Peasant bros... not like this

>>583626058get both
how come thanquol is making this doom-cannon and not ikit?
>>583629194Its a faction effect. I choose at the start
>>583629217Because the canon is kind of backwards.In setting lore, Thanquol and the greyseers pulled the moon closer to the planet (which is why it's so huge in vermintide), to empower the skaven, causing them to breed faster, grow faster, get more magic, and able to get so many verminlords.Ikit figured if this is the power of the moon so close, bringing the moon into a controlled crash over Lustria will not only wipe out all of the lizardmen, but also empower the skaven even closer. So he made a mega giga cannon to destroy the moon and send its chunks all over Lustria.Unfortunately for Ikit, this act caused the magic that empowers the Skaven to die, killing the majority of Skaven in the process, and also the lizards already fucked off in their spaceships.
>>583628559That means Elspeth gets vamped anon...
>>583629217Because the Gotrek and Felix books were very popular, and the end times writers didn't care very much, so Thanquol abruptly becomes the most important skaven ever instead of the joke being he's a self important nobody that always fails.
>>583629518Vamping in Warhammer requires the vamp to drink deeply of the victim while the victim drinks the vamp's blood. Just saying.
Is there something I'm missing with the vampire lair mechanic can you really just bring in a level 30 lord in like turn 10?
>>583629435big brain should've just used the cannon on the lizards
>>583629740You can, and for efficiency purposes that's probably the best thing to do.The other options are really fun though.
Ok Two malekith Armies vsHellebron and her 500 sluts
Are these any good? I feel like it's hard to gauge their impact accurately.
>>583624318Yeah, Chaos was actively blowing up the Empire while Toddy was razing my settlements in one of my runs.
>>583626231This became apparent with the amount of nerds upset that Hand of Death isn't an instant kill attack.
Lvl 36 taurox even without his weapon (that was in fact the battle for his weapon) and most of the upgrades in campaign stuff.He just doesn't get damaged.I've heard they nerfed him, is that correct?I don't know why the game says my other units killed anyone, they just stood in the forest.It was all taurox.I start to think this game is kinda stupid.
>>583626058Assuming you aren't a shitter, I would get movement.
shoved out the shadows on the Left flanks with my girls who were even faster. Beastmagic is just the best
>>583630271He used to have much better stats and could raze an entire continent in under 5 turns.His big strength is his animations, since he's invulnerable while animation locked, but his entire body is a hurt box.
>>583630117To a certain extent they got replaced by hochland long rifles and the steam tank version but they are still pretty good against basically everything.
>>583630530This kind of shit is why I stopped playing for 2 years.Campaign is far from over, but what's there left to do?I literally can't lose anymore and just have to paint the map.And it's only like turn 35.I can't imagine what kind of retard made this Lord, especially if he was even more busted at the beginning. "Taurox is fun" they said.Yeah, for the first 20 turns maybe.But any campaign is fun in the early game.
Is there any faction in the game right now that can stack as much Spell Mastery as easily as VC?
>>583630813Whoever said Taurox is fun was either lying or into power trips.Personally I enjoy the more challenging campaigns but Belegar feels like the last of them.
>>583629821Most of the other options are tech locked so that early you really don't have a whole lot you can do.
Archaon going "heh, bet you didn't think i was a wizard" when he casts in battle is so dumb. You're the champion of all the chaos gods, including the god of wizards, why wouldn't you be a wizard?
>>583631030>Personally I enjoy the more challenging campaigns but Belegar feels like the last of them.Belegar in 2 is so much harder when compared to Belegar in 3 with all his free ghost heroes being embedded into his army.
>>583630953Nagash and Teclis. >>583631060I like to go that research route early for the stuff like "corpses near crypts" and "discover crypts around the world".
>>583630953Gelt and Cathay, I think teclis can as well but I haven't played him since the rework.
>>583631147I restrict myself to one Ghost Daddy until K8P, then I remove all of them and only use recruited heroes.
>>583631234>CathayHow exactly do you reach 180-210% spell mastery as Cathay, and on what Lords.
>>583631325Admirable.
>>583631325Pathetic.
>>583631030>they ruined BelegarWhat a bunch of niggers.
>>583631098YOU THINK I AM NOT VERSED IN THE ARCANE? HA!
>>583628559
>>583616053If you want a true one man doomstack then Nemesis Crown for the mortis engine effect and Sword of Khaine for the giga wardsave.Yeah, Taurox is pretty damn tough, one of his abilities gives him a ton of wardsave for 40 seconds.
>>583631096Who's that ?
>>583631815How to get Sword of Khaine?I know you can defeat the owner and get it.But I don't think anyone owns it in my campaign yet.
>>583631926It's slop.

I miss getting Volkmar in the Empire.
I'm going to redo my Nagash campaign as I'm nearly turn 100 and only just got up to Karaz-e-Karak or whatever. Nagash was fine, and I was able to manage my other armies well enough but it was just getting exhausting slog wise & not being as optimal as I should be since I had only 2 fucking books.What would be a good policy for VH/VH? I did the usual wait to confed Arkhan, but I beatstick Mannfred into submission and now I am thinking to let him cook as a buffer to the mountains and in the South so I can do a straight shoot northward to get into the empire and neuter Vlad before he gets too big. I'm honestly more interested in Wallach than I am vlad (and vlad's "Take the entire empire" requirement is a bit severe) so I am thinking just send Nagash up there, turn Nuln into a farm with a necropolis and some good 2 stack there to just wage war on anyone coming into the territory then send Nagash on a wacky adventure overseas.Last time after I beatstick Manfred I was fine until Teclis and The lizard declared war, then I had to put two stacks down there and while they held the line they couldn't advance further. >>583617395Not that I can judge, but looking at yours you buffed zombies. 7 nodes to get to the archer side. If you went to the right and then up and to the left you'd get there in ~6, and it would buff Nagash. The coast zombies feel mutually exclusive to running TK bowmen.

>>583618103Im doing VH/Vh, just posted a sec ago, but I really want to slap anyone who says the AI aren't good at having high quality unit stacks. I am facing nonstop unending tides of highest tier dwarves, or skaven shit with the same or Teclis with a gajillion Swordsmen of Hoeth, skycutters, shadow rangers. It's only if a faction is getting whupped up the ass that I find them fielding poverty units (or a custom cheat like southern realms having some vampire-y border prince with shit units).

>>583632665From the bottommost node, the left side is vampire coast zombie shit the right side is skeletals. I remember being confused by the dissonance of it because left side is zombies (Coast chiefly) then it leads to tomb king archers, and the right side is skeletons that then lead to vampirate gunners. It forces you to have to meander around unless you want some weird combo like vcoast zombie melee but TK bows or

The Imperial Palace kinda fucking stinks. +5% local income and a bunch of useless crap.
>>583633109oh yeah, i prob went for coast zombies super early cause was using em, might wanna disenchanteither way tho i've never seen a campaign be such a struggle at 150 turns, im facing endless enemy stacks and I'm yet to able to afford more than 3 of my own

>>583633374yes

>>583630813Try playing a campain vs another player and see how fast you can beat them.
>>583616720honestly if you don't give a shit about Nigas or the end crisis to the point to disable them, the update and DLC didn't bring that much beyond the vampires rework. Hell one of the lords is just a generic green monster that nobody cares and prefer to confed than to play it
>>583632484stop listen to retards. dont wait for any mortarchs subjugations and do it as soon as you can. if you go into negative after subjugation just autoresolve couple of battles with their stacks. thats fucking it. Nagash isnt quantity factions but quality. Build strong core for Nagash himself, them build armies for manfred and arkhan. run them empty with nagash to reinforce if you cant afford them fighting alone. you biggest and earliest powrespike are bow ushabtis. get pyramid to t3 in reasonable time, get landmark in the desert, 4-6 into nagash army and then fill manfreds and arkhan too. get couple of caskets, its the best arti without pyramid upgrades. thats it you are set. stay on t3 for a while and build income buildings everywhere.

>>583637183They are all but confirmed TS, the Word Bearer memes make even less sense than the Dark Angel/Blood Angel memes.
>>583637124Alith Anar was great because he could lightning strike huge chains of armies with no losses on auto resolve in TWWH2
>>583635938anyone?
>>583637183Blood Ravens get teased as being loyalist Thousand Sons successors because they're eerily similar. The unusual psyker count, the kleptomania, the red coloring like pre-rubric TS, the raven imagery (the TS had the corvidae cult, it wasn't a symbol exclusive to the Raven Guard), the missing records and their motto being "Knowledge is power, guard it well". Literally everything about them screams "TS that were out of Prospero when the Wolves attacked". Either that or one of the shards of Magnus tried to make loyalist successors before he got it back.
>>583637261>>583637534>call the emperor god>no flesh change>no Rubric>Aurelian naming schemethere was more that I don't remember, but if they had Magnus genes they'd be mutating, that's the most definite piece of evidence for all the corvid stuff to be a red herring.

Karl feels so fresh with his 600 new voice lines.
I clicked play on WH3 and the window disappears but it don't launch after patching in the hotfix, what do? CA server issue?or creamapi issue?
>>583638114>the corvid stuff to be a red herring.Everything related to corvidae was used as Grey Knights origin story alreadyIt's a set up for loyalist Psyker which are them and not Blood Ravens, which are a tacticool chapter using psykers to predict enemy movement
God I wish Elspeth could teleport when confederated. The Empire is so fucking big.
>>583638114>>583638134Remind me which Legion was famous for having loads of psykers.Then remind me which SM chapter is famours for having loads of psykers.Was it the Word Bearers? Oh no it wasn't, damn. Guess you fucking lose this one, retards.

>>583617879>Nagash is hard at the startOne of the few lords who can basically solo a stack from the first fight and on though. Economically he's difficult though yes.As for Necropoli, you only need one every other province, though if you want to be more efficient it's every 2 provinces since you can undead wasteland every province that neighbors a necro
>>583638114>>call the emperor god>>no flesh change>>no RubricLiterally all explained by simply saying "They weren't in Prospero when shit happened".>>Aurelian naming schemeSpace Marine naming schemes post-Heresy don't depend on the chapter, they depend on the planet they recruit from.>>583638134The already recorded "earliest" days of the Blood Ravens chapter can't possibly be related to the Thousand Sons or else they'd realize they're Thousand Sons successors. Also Guilliman famously took in the loyalist defectors of many of the traitor legions and made them into successors (with deleted records) in the Second Founding, including the Iron Warriors.In fact, if the Blood Ravens were somehow Word Bearers and their origins were in a battle against the Ultramarines, I guarantee you that's the one case in which they wouldn't get to survive and go loyalist.
>>583638807Also the kleptomania. Seriously, the Thousand Sons were infamous during the Great Crusade because they'd leave other legions hanging mid-campaign because they learned there was a relic/library/laboratory somewhere on the planet.
>>583618268Offense takes a sort of understanding for the particulars of the campaign though, the anti-player bias and the way the AI works often makes it hard to identify who is going to actually be a threat to you until you've already played through a campaign once for a bit. Iirc this is stuff like Arbaal or Tamurkhan declaring war on Astragoth. Nagash doesn't really have this particular problem but it's more like losing settlements is particularly rough on Nagash
Do you guys think Nerferata was a nice kid or was she a nightmare to her parents growing up?
>>583638392Do you have the proper dlls or up to date blood files? Using cream installer jobs hard with Warhammer 3 so you'll have to get a dedicated autist's creamapi files, including the dlls. iirc smokeapi works also
>>583639815i just want a mod that makes her hat bigger
>>583638937Almost as strong as a unit of Ghorst zombies
>>583639815She was a nice kid, ironically it was her brother Ushoran that was a fucking menace and bullied her. So when Neferata caused the destruction of his vampire kingdom it was also kind of petty revenge.
>Lahmian lords are the dedicated Lord and SEM killers>but they also get the Coven Throne as final mount, completely gutting their 1v1 potential and their combat stats to turn them into support lordsBit schizophrenic design-wise, not gonna lie.Neffy only really gets away with it because she still gets blob deletion spells and a slew of other bullshit, but basic Lahmians don't really have an excuse.
>>583640110I also thought the same of Skulltaker's final mount being a bloodshrine that absolutely guts his combat potential and turns him into a support unit. Just a baffling decision.
>>583640220Doesn't it give him regeneration though?
>>583638114Horus Heresy books all but confirm that the Blood Ravens are loyalist Thousand Sons, anything else is irrelevant and non-canon including the older books written for them during the peak of the DoW era.>Corvidae Fellowship are all seers and diviners, they see the Burning of Prospero and the Imperium going to shit so they plead to Magnus>Magnus does nothing but sit atop his spire and doesn't care what they do>half of the Corvidae Fellowship immediately leave via ships en route to Terra but half of the fleet gets lost in the Warp; only half makes it into Terra and they immediately surrender to Malcador the Sigillite>Malcador knew that the Emperor will order the execution of the XVth legion so he accepts their surrender and these Corvidae TSons are temporarily imprisoned and stripped of their weapons and armour>Burning of Prospero happens, half of the remaining Corvidae cult who remained chose to hide using their combined psyker powers from the Custodes, the Titan group and the Space Wolves while the others fought, died until Magnus warps all of them away>the book doesn't mention how they're spared from Magnus' mass teleportation>as the execution fleet left, only the World Eaters and some SoH remained in Prospero>the TSons survivors were immediately attacked by the latter two and got murked, the TSons survivors steal a ship and head straight to Terra where they make it before the main shitshow happens, they surrender to the Custodes who in turn turn them over to Malcador>the book doesn't explain how the remaining Corvidae loyalists were spared the flesh change but a handful of them do go insane and were instantly put down by their own comrades1/2

>>583640731Yeah so what? He doesn't need it, he's got ridiculous stats on his own. Your choice is either the strongest possible fighter you can have in your army, or a mediocre unit with regeneration.
I think I can finally play some again tomorrow. Should I?>continue my slow-burn Neferata (only on like turn 30)>try starting Skrolk again as a casual skaven fuck around run (just did thanquol)>Try Glotkin finally? i figure VH or at least ironman bc WoC I’m good with>Try Boris finally? Not really an Empire guy
>>583640996Bloodshrine is for being a 1 man army, Skulltaker's got plenty good stats even with it.
>>583640802>Malcador knew that the Emperor will order the execution of the XVth legionThen he knew something that wasn't true. The order was always to bring in Magnus, nothing more.
I forget, were the Blood Ravens a Relic invention, or did Relic just take the Blood Ravens from obscure lore and elaborate on it?
Ack, not an easy first battle
>>583641486Relic invention that made its way into actual lore cause GW used to be fun like that.
>>583641485The order was to bring in Magnus, whatever happens to the XVth did not matter to him.
>>583641485The execution of the legion, not of Magnus. And Emps did fully intend to execute the legion sooner or later.
>>583641486The Blood Ravens were a generic Eavy Metal Gays Workshop chapter, they were repurposed later on as the vidya franchise because Gays Workshop in the late 90s did not want Relic to use the Ultramarines or any First Founding chapter.Only after the first game popped Games Workshop suddenly allowed them to use the Ultramarines for the expansion.
>>583641404Skrolk has a hard campaign, he can be fun in a casual way but he doesn't really grip you long-term the same way Ikit does.>GlotkinA bit overpowered, like most other Nurgle lords.I'd recommend Boris, he's the new Franz in terms of having to put out all the fires in the empire because they threaten YOU rather than because of a gimmick
>>583642023Weird as a old skavenfag, ikit never gripped me.Felt like I never got the feel for massed weapon team play down.

>>583645908Don't you try and kite him you little shit. Fight like a man.
I feel like some factions simply can't do the endgame scenarios. The idea of fighting Archaon with Skarbrand is fun but that just cannot work.Archaon spawns outside of the player's territory of which Skarbrand barely has any and never is inside of so they all stack up in the desert while Skarbrand is somewhere up in norsca. So we backtrack for 500years, bloodletting on 0, army starts burning up, tons of debuffs, money in the negative and nothing to sack, bloodhosts all burned away... and then we can't even make new bloodhosts cause archaon doesn't hold cities to raze.Hunting down 50 stacks with one army isn't fun either. It's gonna take forever.Golgfag has the a similar issue.
>>583646281Casual.
>>583646281Loreful, Archaon defeats chaos by starving them of mortals to kill
Today is Katarin's birthday!
>>583645908He's fast though (for a dwarf)
>>583646281What if, and follow me here, you planned ahead for the crisis, and occupied rather than razed one region per province. This would also let you support more than one army even without bloodletting.
>First 5 turns of Bretonnia Campaign>Hero levels up to rank 6>Go to pick questing vow>Find out I forgot to pick knight vow
>>583646980how do you play bretonnia without deleting the save file after turn 10?
>>583647115get to t5 and star having fun
CA made a vow to rework Bretonnia.
>>583647216they forgot to pick it
God I can't pick a faction for this
>>583647115You beat Archaon end game scenario by turn 30.
>>583646854Yeah, it allows us to have 2 armies. Which doesn't fix anything. We still hit 0 bloodletting and can't make bloodhosts.Every faction will fall into our lands, take it while Archaon razed it and we have to backtrack forever.
>>583647115I really enjoy Bretonnia. Probably my favourite faction. People dislike this faction because its early game units are trash but once you get to T3 and can recruit Knights of the realm, you become a real menace. Vow system is shit though.
For the chaos invasion crisis, where do armies spawn? Can they spawn right in the middle of your territory? What about the Dark Fortress, if you own a DF site, is it possible they just take that settlement?
>>583647302My favorites were the Donut on the left, Chorfs, and Empire. Nehekara is alright here but it's kind of annoying to navigate.Don't pick Malus, terrible campaign despite Malus being the coolest
>>583648003I know form streams that the invasion fortresses you need to kill are more like ogre camps. If it's anything like the Nagash crisis, when the player owns a settlement it just spawns the armies in the area instead of giving them the settlement outright.
>>583644185>playing nerferata>surrounded by potential enemies>some ogre demands me I pay him tribute or he declares war on me>I'm already on war on too many fronts>pay tribute to him>have to stop playing and go fap because nerferata servicing ogres with her handmaidens on top of paying them is probably exactly what happened

>>583649706Choose according to start position.Alberic's is the most intense having to fight Skulltaker and Masque very early on, not to mention VC, Skrolk, and Rakarth. But imo he is the funnest if you can pull it off.Louen and Fay are pretty much mirrored, early game its Kemmler/Grom then Grom/Kemmler and then Belakor/Ikit Claw. Its just a matter of if you want north or south bretonnia.
>>583649191Are you the same guy that thought 40k never?
>>583650485No that was me
>>583650485I never think about 40k unless it's dawn of war 2.I only ever said 40k can't work in total war and the gameplay videos proved me right.

Before the steam sale ends, if I want to do an Archaon campaign later would Sayl be worthless? I need to get that and the dechala pack but I don't really run Slaaneshi stuff so I am not sure.
>>583652158just play melee ball factions with unkillable lords like skarbrand. archaon, or vlad

>>583652838Suffering builds character
>>583652910That's so fucking sad.
>>583652202WoC can get bearmen but it's a trap because they can't be upgraded. Chimeras are a major upgrade to feral manticores except they don't benefit from the cattle landmark that gives physical resist. Dreadmaws are too annoying to use. Archaon doesn't get the other units, but has better monsters and melee cav anyway. Sayl himself is fun to play, and if you enjoy Warriors you will probably enjoy him.
>>583652838you'll grow up some day and understand what i mean.

Cause that's what suffering gives me.>>583653072I'm already old and wrinkly..What I will see in a few years is you having to endure the disaster that is 40k while I keep playing Skarbrand. But hey, maybe you'll become a soace muhreen fan and take the tiddy skittles.>>583653081When have I trolled someone?
Oh god lads helpI wanted to give this game a shot super badly the last few weeks and now its finally on sale but3rd game has the biggest sale? But I still need the first games to play as their units? Like Warhammer 1 has the Norsca DLC so is the only way to play them in 3 to buy both WH1 and then WH3 and then the DLC too? Or is all the DLC just like light adjustments and don't matter for WH3? Or do I only buy the first one to play them in order? Does that matter? People say 2 is the best one so do I just get that? My PC is kidna weak is one of the 3 games just the most optimized?Oh god please bros I thought I would just buy the game, but now I'm trying to look into it and I'm more confused than ever.
>>583653168>He purely got his rep from being the best at these dumb ass games not from being funny or entertaining thats impressiveTo be fair it's incredibly impressive that he knew all the in and outs of mechanics and knew how to abuse the fuck out of themCA doesn't even have the knowledge and they made the game... Too bad they baited him into quitting..
>>583653364Just creampie all the DLCs like everyone else
>game crashing on arbaal's turn for some fucking reasonHad to use console commands to figure this out. I just deleted his faction and it fixed it but damn, how gay to have to deal with that.
>>583653364Get 3. You only need 3 to play the big Sandbox map. You need DLC to unlock the factions you want to play as>My PC is kidna weak is one of the 3 games just the most optimized?It's dogshit so your milage may vary, very CPU intensive but nothing lowing the settings can't fix (to a cetain extent)My advice? Don't spend hundreds on this game, if anything get the base game and just creamapi all the dlc's for freeIf you don't want to do that then just get the few dlc's that interest you then get more on the next sale, they go on sale often> But I still need the first games to play as their units? Like Warhammer 1 has the Norsca DLC so is the only way to play them in 3 to buy both WH1 and then WH3 and then the DLC too? Yup you need all the individual DLC for the units, just one copy though i don't have to buy dupes for each game> Or is all the DLC just like light adjustments and don't matter for WH3? Or do I only buy the first one to play them in order? Does that matter? No to all>People say 2 is the best one so do I just get that? You can if you want?

Just found out about Miao Ying x Imrik... Feel to my knees at walmart...Nyoo... is it canon... Nyooooo my wife...
I need a better way to deal with Plageclaw Catapults as High Elves. It's turn 60. Clan Pestilens declared war on me after I took northeast Lustria from Luthor Harkon. My army consists of:Princess level 151 Handmaiden level 51 Noble level 58 units of Lothern Sea Guard8 units of sisters of averlorn1 balista or whatever they're called.Lord Skrolk is bringing:Lord Skrolka chieftain2 clanrat spears2 clanrats1 warp grinder3 plague monks1 stormvermin2 rattling guns1 night runner1 poisoned wind globadier5 plageclaw catapults, one of them is Virulent BatteriesAuto resolve gives me the victory but takes all my sea guard. Fighting it obliterates my army because it's an underway interception. Failing to fight this he'll bring 3 more armies from the south. I am defending the Celestial Pools or Radiant Pools, whatever that wood elf tree is called. I don't need to engage but tree settlements aren't the easiest to defend against 4 armies of skaven methinks.Basically I plan to auto resolve this then run away. At least it takes all those catapults from Skrolk but in the future how should I build an army against such reckless hate?
Had to do a double take when I saw a bow symbol in a skaven army. I don't think I ever noticed the AI doing allied recruitment before
>>583655018Baka..He's attacker and has range advantage, he won't move. You take your princess, walk her into range of his catapults and then walk her in circles on 3x speed until they are empty.Ez win
>>583655018you have no cav or flying monsters that's all you need. 1-4 is what i usually do
>>583655018Get some flying SEMs and set them on them, doing hit and run if they have protection close by. Eagles, phoenixes, dragons. Or your lord/heroes on eagles/dragons. Or you can get the lion dogs and flank them.
*(You) are the attacker..Since you intercept.
>>583655316AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA MEOWZAK NOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>583654894nothing is canon with miao ying because she's not a real warhammer character
>>583654894its not just imirk, cupcake
>>583655213Yeah, it was a real good army against Luthor Harkon. Hard countered by skaven. I can't recruit dragons or monsters here, I'll have to hold ground near the coast and hire another army in Ulthuan.
Quick my boys, where should you go as Archaon first? To kill off Bloody Sword and Boris? Or go south and bully Arbaal? Or go back and bully Tamurkhan and Kholek?
>>583655370Please refrain from yelling at my Khatrak.If you spoop her she'll pillage Altdorf again.
jesus fucking christ thats so fucking many, dear god how long would that actually take
>>583655853after you do it once you'll never do it again
>>583655853About 300turns
This animu good? ARt looks nice
>>583655853Some factions like Aislinn and Yuan Bo can do total domination in under 50 turnsYuan Bo can do it under 30 if you play well
>>583655615How does it work exactly? Can you just fight the leader of a non woc chaos faction win and get subjugate of the whole thing?
>>583652467>archaonanon...
>>583656324Huh?
>>583655108I've been seing the ai use allied recruitment a lot.
>>583656350I AM EVER CHOSEN
>>583656324Is it because the conditions for vic are much easier or something?
>Tiktakto kicked my ass as Nagash due to my all infantry army not being to touch his flying shit that melted meThats what I get for trying to Helmann Ghorst my way through the campaign
>>583656705Mortis engine the birds.
>>583656705Cant you just get a bunch of skele archers or coast gunners with nagash
>>583656324Play well = get confed asap?
Why do I keep playing all these new factions I dont like I'll just go back to playing elves and cathay. Current Skaven(Ikit or Thanquol) are so hilariously overpowered and rich its not funny
>>583656324I've done yuan bo long vic in under 50 but 272 settlement domination?
That smile makes me feel all fuzzy inside.
Hows his Campaign? I keep reading on reddit that Boris is actually kino.
>>583657685Is getting raped by beastmen kino idk
>always captured settlements, why the fuck wouldn't I they let me build income buildings or just trade them back to my allies>always end up quitting a campaign a few hours in since the territory gets too big to bother managing and constantly defending >just realized I could just burn down anything that doesn't belong to my faction or ally Is this what everyone else does? Just burn that shit down to save myself the hassle, earn some cash and force the enemy to spend gold on rebuilding if I didn't finish them off yet?
>>583657845dont let passfag see this..
>>583657845YES
>>583657851Territory management is quick as fuck. I spend more time levelling characters. Theres this mod that lets you queue levelups but Idk if its updated to 9.0 yet
>>583657895By turn 20 you'll have 3+ roaming beastmeme armies spawned right on your territory with t3/t5 shit. That is invariant of if vlad or drycha or whatever is also aggrod on you at the same time
Cathay lost one big weakness with clawspeaker(life) whats monkey king going to bring elite troops the only other gap?
I suddenly feel like taking Khatrak to Altdorf. Maybe to Ulthuan, elves are pretty.We gonna Pillage and RAPE.Anyone wanna join? RAA ROO
>>583658328Hope they don't forget to include RoR in the DLC...
>>583654796It was more about how refined he could make corner camping. Definitely taught me a few tricks, though I'm not going to use them outside of the few times it could save me in a bad fight.>>5836550188 sisters is pretty excessive considering 4-5 of them can output enough DPS to kill an army fast. They're going to get eaten alive by the plagueclaw, and your princess probably isn't enough alone to go around the side and kill or disrupt the artillery. Even with cavalry that's going to be annoying, the helves have good flying lords and monsters to deal with artillery like this but in this case you kind of just have to deal with what comes
>>583658008Can't be bothered at some point, having to either have like four armies ready at each edge to fight back raids or moving my main army from one end of my territories for multiple turns to fight off some vampire coast asshole. The campaign is most fun when you start because you have a small area to look over and manage making it a tight experience, maybe destroying enemy towns will help. >Theres this mod that lets you queue levelups but Idk if its updated to 9.0 yetWho the fuck needs a mod for that, are you running 50 heroes and can't be bothered to click on a skill? I could understand equipment management aid since you drown in trash magic at items a few hours in but this?
>>583658546>Are you running all heroes you possibly could?Yes
>>583657685Now that beastmeme lords can actually be dueled by Boris it's pretty kino
>>583658640Sounds like even more busy work, but whatever if that's fun for you then it's not my problem and I didn't come here to discuss that anyway. Hopefully someone will speak up about the settlement sacking thing.
I love the stupid mods in this game man..
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8x4m-qpmJ8
>>583659064I just understand why do it? Play a fully always tall faction like wood elves: not a forest, not a hearthland? Raze that useless shit
>>583659270Does this only count domination victories?
>>583659368Don't you get bonuses for Welf outpotsts? and permasacking is more money than razing
>>583659556Razing is always better. Makes tree grow stronk
>>583659451No just long vics / one VCO win con
>>583659556Idk sisters can get an anvil 3 tier item empowered that gives you raze values over 60k. You get bonuses for the ones close to trees. Everything outside trees if it doesnt have a unique or isnt a capital is generally extreme low value even though you can still sell them
>>583659246Didn't this get take down by GW on Steam?
>>583660372Yeah but this is on nexus rn, his doomslayer mod is up there too
>>583655920do people usually just go for the long victory and call it good? or is the only reason you do a total domination for like achievements or like a challenge run or some shit
>>583661189I have done long vics and never played after i have yet to see and end scenario play out. Maybe some day too many factions to play makes it hard.
>>583656537Yesterday's perhaps...
>>583661189I never once went for any victory condition. Those things are nonsense. I just play for as long as I'm having fun. Sometimes 20 turns, sometimes 300 turns..
>Vassalise Arkhan as Nagash (I can mortarch him later)>By trading a repantsu settlement i took for 37kOh ok then
Is it just me or do Free Company Militia massively overperform? I'm not even running Volkmar and they just rape everything well into endgame
>>583661189At some point it's just a lot of work when I can kind of do it in my head. WH3 at least the regions are so small it's hard to appreciate capturing areas
>>583661468Must be an oversight or something, all of Nagash's settlements count as t5s so they're expensive as fuck when traded
>>583637363>>583635938Ikkit Claw hands down
>>583662270The AI highly values pretty much all settlements, especially ones with recruitment buildings in them. The weird part is that Arkhan had 37k on hand, not that he paid it for a settlement.
>>583663267Settlements can have barely any valiue, some have none at all and they can even have negative value. You'll have to pay the AI to take them. I did that once.
>>583649225this looks pretty neat
I hope anon updates YinYin so I don't have to cause I don't understand animation packs and Gemini is a faggot currently.
>>5836550185 catapults in an underway interception is kind of a ballache no matter what, there are I think very few compositions that'd get out of that without heavy losses; if the whole army has Stalk, if the whole army is dragons, or if you have a sufficiently OP lord/hero ball that can just kill all the catapults while the rest of the army advances without dying from being totally outnumbered and swarmed.Helves in particular I think tend to be vulnerable to explosions due to their tight formations.In general though I'd stress the importance of having at least a few fast units, particularly cavalry, even cheap cavalry like elyrian reavers to have an answer to artillery, but they can't really help in an underway battle. Really useful for running down fleeing units and those pesky gutter runners.
What the fucking shit happened to /twg/... did Legend leaving really rot all your brains?Fkn entire army of dudes suggesting tactics or units and playstyles to get around... catapults..You walk the fkn Lord in a circle, you fucking scrub ass noobs.Legend please come back, /twg/ is unable to play this vidya without you.
fuck twgfuck TCAand fuck you
>>583665075At least you were quick to collect all the books and get there. It'll all be over soon.
>>583665498i will eat your face
>>583665075why me
>click on Lahmian Handmaidens>WHO CALLS
>>583626058Movement
Look upon your works /twg/ and despair. Enough cheats to rival the total size of the base game and dlc.I don't even have any coomer mods.
wtf happened to beautiful witch elves
>>583650773>>583651091bbc whores
>>583666768I have 80 downloaded but like 30 activated
nagash more like bad
Is Arkhan really just Nagashs' lil bitich?
>>583665075What's the problem, sport?
So now ordertide is impossible, but going along for the ride as destruction is an auto win, what destruction faction other than Vlad can you play as a 'good guy' schizo shield of civilisation?It has to be one that is not turbo fucked by racial hatred of most of order or by its own nature is incompatible like beastmeme.Malekith comes to mind, maybe Hashut fanatic Drazhoath who wants to tell chaos niggers to fuck off?
> ONLY THE STRONGEST WILL SURVIVE!> LEAD ME TO HEAVEN WHEN WE DIE> I AM A SHADOW ON THE WALL> I AM THE ONE THAT WILL SAVE US ALL!
>>583667168are you deadass?
>>583667092Kind of. He has near complete latitude to do his job however he likes and Nagash has total confidence in his loyalty and competence. So it's like having a big shot boss who trusts you to set your own work hours and initiate your own projects, and it's all fine so long as the line goes up.
>>583667385Nah mate, deadset fair dinkem serious.Not here to fuck spiders.
>>583667168Azhag has a convenient start pos to rescue the Empire from undead shits and Norscans.
>>583667484why not? spider women are always the hottestwhy is that?
>>583667538yeah nah get fucked eh.
loli feet
No lolis in wh because western media is gay
>>583666884I don't think those women's cocks are black, and frankly I'm not sure they have cocks at all.
>>583669492Ulrika's books have an unnamed loli, and Genevieve comes from a vamp who got turned by a loli.Vampires are the loli faction, but the lolis never got minis (probably a good thing).
>>583670636Oh and if I remember right, WFRP 2e had mentions of a loli necrarch who liked to play build-a-bear with human bodies, some of which still alive from her dark magic.
HAAAAT
Have you ever given any thought to the fact that if Khalida wasn't covered by mummy wrappings, the royal attire she was buried in would leave her pussy completely exposed?
>>583671949>if people don't wear clothes then they're nakedNo shit? Cooming has eroded your brain

>>583672851those witch elves poop from there
>>583672923>>583672923UhhhhEwww....
Honestly there's nothing more pathetic than turning a TW game into some shitty goonslop. At that point you might as well renounce your humanity and kill yourself because you'll never get better.
>>583671696>>583671949>>583671696>hail from the same time, the same place, the same culture, the same social strata, the same extended family>regalia might as well be from different planetsNot even talking about Neferata's plate corset, her crown is just so completely dissimilar from anything in TK.
>>583672923Elves don't poop.
>>583673580Honestly Nagash should like like an Egyptian God King, while Neferata should be far more contemporary (in setting contemporary) in appearance with some Egyptian themed affectations.
>>583673580You envision the queen of the socialite strain of vampires wearing the same thing for four thousand years?
Neferata posting selfies on Instagram
>>583672851Yeah I'll be gooning to this later.
There seems to be a bug in my Nagash campaign, I can’t upgrade minor settlements at all. Hotfix when?
>>583664945very hard pro talking lmao
>>583673962Yes, actually. She's carrying a dagger and stave with her everywhere, both taken from Lahmia. The fuckoffgiant jewel set in her headpiece is taken from Lahmia. Her cat is from Lahmia. Her undead bodyguards are from Lahmia. The interior design of the mountain hold she spent the last several thousand years holed up in is meant to evoke Lahmia. She is extremely hung up on that place.
>>583673418Modern day prudes, and worse secondary prudes are a cancer.I do not like the mods that make female imperial rank and file soldiers with balloon tits. However I am free NOT to use them.CA and GW both censoring the specific factions and characters that ARE about sex appeal to the point of androgyny is a graver issue.If this game was made in 2000, Morathi would have tits modelled off Pamela Anderson, with wide birthing hips. The fucking dark elf from the MMO trailer has tits 4 times the size opf Morathi's as depicted in TW - so don't try to hide behind the 'elves are all flat cause low body fat' bullshit.In the same vein lahmian vampires should be gorgeous AND shapely. That is how they are depicted in lore and that is the archetype they are based on, the femme fatale. Not man faced, flat fridge bodies that women find non threatening and gay men would confuse from behind as a petite man.The only issue regarding these coomer mods is that they are NOT modular (at least the god ones) and I will not tolerate bimbo brettonian peasants. I want raping slaanesh and beastmen so I can hunt them down and slay them.You fucking prudes and modern puritans are literally killing the IP faster than the troons and literally are the reason the mentally defective even have a beachhead.
>>583673962The entire reason the Vampires are in direct opposition to the chaos gods and reviled by their followers is because they remain stagnant which tzeentch hates, they keep the blood for themselves which Khorne loathes, they are outside the cycle of life which pisses off Nurgle, and they literally refuse to do anything new, and repeat the same rituals and entertainment and pursuits, forever, which bores slaanesh.Neferata, when she is not infiltrating somewhere, should otherwise be depicted as unchanged since she became a vampire - like a statue or near enough.
Neferata should look Egyptian (Venezuelan).
>>583674574You're free to mod your game in any way. But don't come here telling us how much of a porn addict you are to the point you can't have a good time unless the military strategy game makes you horny.Your kind is the type that always get caught masturbating in public then cry about "prudes"
>>583674574
>>583674459What?I just crawled out of bed, I need my beer.
>>583674878Porn addict. Even the suggestion of sexuality makes you immediately think of uncontrollable masturbation.
Oh yeah, I just remembered I wanted to try an empire campaign and see if it's finally a fun faction.Anyone god some sick Boris mods? Maybe some anime girl replacements or bikini outfits or shit?
>>583674562Did you notice that none of those things you mentioned are her crown? We can therefor infer that isn't quite what she dressed like when Khemri was filled with the living.
>>583675487>I am a dumb monkey who cannot stop jacking off no matter what I do! This is completely normal btwWeird flex but okay.
*add to cart*There gotta be something for Boris himself tho.. he is uglier than Gelt.
>>583675590>>583675697There was a cool SABER as KARLIO FRANZIO mod but CA being buzzkills killed the mod with 0.00001 nanoseconds...

This is just frustrating.. This shit got taken down too and the chink commentators dunno where to find it either.
Gemini says they have private groups like discord like shit where they have their mods...Time to learn chinese.
>>583622798>i just hope ca wont make foot knightsWhy not?
this is the worst shit in the game's historythis slot could have been used for something much better, tigermen are stupid, especially since they're not part of Indeven Helman Ghorst is better than this garbage
>>583677470kill yourself
>>583677470No... You don't understand that slot was used to backstab Legend and ultimate cause him to ragequit..
>>583677204You are not allowed to taint Warhammer by miscegenating it with different franchises. Including different Warhammers. Everything else is a fair game. Fanfiction too. This is the one unbreakable rule which is not allowed to be broken. And thanks God for that. The one thing James do nicely. Crossovers are cancer.
Thus far this empire gameplay is hype. Needs more moshpit tho.>>583677687I dunno what the fuck a james is..
>>583677687ehehhhhehhh
>>583677768At least post the Warhammer decks.

Is there a way to relocate or remove neffy's vamp coven? This is my first campaign with her and i tought i since chorfs are stationary i would SUCK on their resources but heros and armies makes it impossible.
>>583677768I thank James (pbuh) every day for not letting this happen

>>583677470YeahThe absolute lowest point in series so farVoiced by tranny too
>>583678064Ok wait nevermind. They thought of this. Pretty solid upgrade. I'll invest in midgame.
>>583677936use demis you dumb passnigger

>>583624001>Can't be anything more than a meatshield.You can be a blessed meatshield.

>>583678758are you a chinaman
There, the fabled Demis.>>583679016Nay
Is there any order faction where I can really buff the fuck out of a spammable unit to the point where they can go toe to toe with woc endgame ones?
Wait a second.. is this scripted to start when Middenstag is taken?...I've gotta hit the lab..
>>583679016>doesn't know about swiss passniggerhownew2u
>>583679124ayyyslin
It fkn is.. So there is a listener that waits for me to take middenstag to start the whole beastmen invade mechanic anons said sucks ass..So..If I just don't, I don't have to bother with that shit.Now I'm curious, is the listener set to Middenstag or taking the province.. reload..
>>583679251german, allegedly
>>583679585That's what he said.
Please tell me it's set to province completion cause if this works that would be even better.
What does it actually do? I can squeeze more Vampires out of this lair? Can't be that, it would be too broken
>playing wood niggers>skill tree barebones as fuck, still made for lord that go up to level 40>everything is a leadership aura>barely ways to buff "oops all archers" gameplay>two ways to build settlementsAnd yet no one is asking for wood elves rework
IT IS A LISTENER FOR THE PROVINCENow I got Karl as my bitch, got the stupid temple unlocked and no beastment spawn...hm..Now the question remains if the listener has a fail safe and starts after X turns passed, which could be.. if not.. then I'm set.
>bought all four ET DLCs>beat Archaon end game as Nagash in VH>got bored and stopped playing, didn't even touch Thanquol, Glottkin, Boris or Neferata

>>5836796871% upkeep reduction and 20 blood per turn. It's okay, not really worth it usually.

>>583679942I thought waiting in battle doesn't remove fatigue anymore in TWW
>>583680030Ofc it does, I do that all the time.
>>583680061I distinctly remember people saying it doesn't work like this anymoreUnless it was changed between games/patches
>>583680030it does but battles go too fast unless you're cheesing sieges or something
>>583679765desu all end times are the same, you reach it, some stacks with gold chevs and ward saves spawn, you kill it, then do a missionSure the enemy changes and the gimmick you have to do is different, but the core experience is the sameAs for the campaigns themselves, glottkin might aswell be a flc, nurgle is boring af, you have tanky units, and the dlc gives you more flavor of tankiness, tamurkhan is an infinitely better nurgle campaignAs for boris, its start pos being "karl franz but a few inches north" means that if you are an empire autist you already played that to the death, the novelty of having actual melee units instead of spearmanii spamming wears off quicklyThanquol and Nagash are the only true novelty for the game
>>583680181It has never not worked.. I've been doing it for years.Only thing you gotta remember is that if you use force march or whatever, that sets your minimum fatigue to a certain level you can't get over.
Looks fancy, wonder if it works.
>>583680461Looks good
>>583626475As a kid I thought shit like this and destructible environments would be da future of gayming, everything being bigger and bettererNow people are eagerly looking forward to the next Total War which Will have shit like 16 spice marines vs 80 orkz but the puddle will have good reflections
>>583680553Mhm.. but gotta figure out a way to get this fat faggot to move..
>all factionwide effects on Mannfred's books were nerfed to only apply to one army at a time LMAOOOO the devs fucking despise him
>>583680692well he is bald so
>>583680620Throw some spells or shoot them with cannons and they will immediately move, unless they're waiting for reinforcements
>>583680830No shit..But guess what boris starts with... no mage..and festus has dogs..
I hope these empire sissies can handle a nurgle hero.
Nope.. even together, they get absolutely manhandled by the hero.
Anyway, time to play a fun faction.
whatd be the purpose of making a stack of these
>>583681209Nothing, they suck ass. The best they are good for is AR.
>>583681027Been there done that yes they get raped by the hero 2 v 1
>>583681027exalted hero of nurgle is crazy strong though
>>583680692IIRC Tomb Kings got the same treatment. The only exception is that one book gives +5% income from *all* buildings, which adds up. I'm not sure whether special currencies like blood & canopic jars get the benefit of that, but I'd assume no.Anyway, the books function more as pieces of equipment now for all the factions that collect them.
I love this.>>583681530Didn't expect that. Checked the stats.. obviously 1v1 seems impossible so I thought 2v1 should work fine.. nah.. they just don't get any hits in.>>583681548Sure but still, it's a 2v1. That's really pathetic.
>>583681204What mod is this>>583679765To be fair Nagash is the most boring of the 4 (or 5 if you count neffy)
>>583677042That part has strangely grown on me but yeah she can't measure up to old narrator.I miss the Medieval 2 narrator the most
>>583679765Thanquol and Neferata are a lot more fun
>>583679981Sorry still doing the tutorial and it hasn't come up yet. So the strat is to try to keep the fresh guys on the lines, and then pull em in the back to wait for a bit if possible?>>583680030I made sure to check it does before I posted lmao.
>>583682090Gacha System.Allows you to pull a random lord, even legendary lords, random heroes, also legendary ones included, and items.It also gives you a 10% chance to get a unique trait on recruited lords and heroes that buffs them up to 4 times when they do battle.. and you can get any legendary item dropped after battles but the chance is tiny.
Holy aids, he brought 3 armies.BLOOD
Neffy ftw
>>583682590WAIFU
fascinating
This is too funny..
Neffie should've gotten a cat mount
>>583682946She does. But only if you're playing Nagash.
Womp Womp..I'm hungry again, I'mma get pasta.
>>583683184@gork iz diz drue
>>583682946>5/8 mortarchs available outside Undead Legion get nothing extra in that factionHow miserly and gay.
>>583682946Does neferata get access to limited TK units in Lahmia? A TK kitty would be really good to have in her army.
lolfirst time i've seen ai use this

>somehow my skaven ranged army autoresolve is valiant defear>play it out>it's all flankers and i do indeed lose
Kislev rework and dlc when
Damn. that took a long time. The need to reach faction strength one seems absolutely pointless. I had won long before that but was held back by how woc recruit armies while factions like karios who was number one were too far away to just subjugate.Nagash was a non entity in this campaign. Even when he managed to confed vlad and neferata really late. I never saw him on the map as a lord.
>>583673580The model designs were made like 15 years apart for different armies and were made by different sculptors using different tools. It figures that they would look different.
>>583685291>Kislev reworkYou already got your rework.>and dlcYou already got your DLC.
>>583685443i want moar
>>583683738Any tzeentch faction except changeling that sees you and doesn't like you will do this every 10 turns until you kill them.
>>583683738AI used this all the fucking time on me until I got sick of his shit and killed him so much for """allies""" fuck tzeentch retarded nigger god for faggots
>Kislev at launch was so bad that it immediately had to be reworked>the single Kislev DLC was so bad that it immediately had to be reworkedI'm noticing...
Fuck Nurgle, 9.
>>583686164Yes.
>AI marches lone stack into settlement>autoresolve gives me pyrrhic victoryThis keeps happening for some reason. This patch made the AI want to kill itself.
>>583686415That has been a thing for YEARS. Legend kept complaining that the AI always just runs and never takes a losing battle so they changed it.
playan elspethwhy did they cap the amethyst units per armywhy wont they let me doomstack with these units
>>583686567Because you‘re gay for playing a woman.
can i get raw materials with no labour in the province?
>>583686567For some reason CA currently has a tremendous boner for unit caps and it sucks.
>>583687439People have asked for unit caps since 2016 so it's not surprising.
>>583686567>>583687439They should make one big update where they introduce unit caps for everyone. They improve the game so much it's unrealCasuals could disable them with cheatmods at any time anyway
>>583687414You need labour to mine raw materials.If you don't have labour, you can still get materials from:1) razing enemy settlements2) trade (i think)
>>583687771man im already seeing problems with the endgame supplying all the provinces with labour
>>583687771Caravans not trade.
passfag really lusting for legend
What if special units need resources? Hire me, CA.
>>583687905Yes that's what I meant. Important distinction. >>583687875I've yet to face this problem. You get bonuses over time giving you more labour from battles and caravans. At least by turn 100 I'm swimming in labour.As long as you're waging war you should be fine.
>>583687656I'm not opposed to unit caps but not like this. I wanted unit caps that work as in tabletop aka. you can't stack 20 dragons in one army, you can get 1-2 dragons and then need basic troops to fill the bulk of it. Instead the current system they're going for just means you've got to have 20 provinces to have 20 dragons, and since only some factions have to deal with caps too, that means your stack with 4 dragons that take up a slot in every province you own have to contend with the AI's actual stack of 20 SEMs. Or alternatively the AI's 5 stacks of orc slaves because the AI itself can't manage unit caps.
>>583688121i see
>enemy hero>just following my guy every turn doing nothing>I can do nothing to him not attack him or anythingUhhhhh what am I missing here sirs
Is there a faction/lord that builds or does stuff inside of a province but not in the settlement itself? Like placing mines and shit like that.
>>583688279Oxy? He does both actually but you can skip normal province stuff if you want.
>>583688254Invite him for a tea obviously
New vamp soundtrack is pretty good. Blends well with the old one.
I thought I would love Nagash but he's so annoying to play. >Invincible on the battlemap>A million annoying problems on the campaign map>After you deal with Arkan and Manfred all your objectives are in the empire with the exception of Nagashizzar>End up surrounded by enemies due to increasing aversion but no way to defend all your minor settlements>End up surrounded on all sides by endless waves of enemies>You want to send an army to voyage north and east but at the same time need them all to defend>Crisis hits and shit spawns all over you but one of your main armies is half a world away>unlock legendary heroes like Krell but they spawn next to Nagash rather than the army you want them in 20 turns awayMeanwhile Thanquol is insanely fun from start to finish. Boris is Great. The Glotkin are... everything you expect from a WoC campaign.
>>583689693They should maybe give you options for where shit spawns. If you're at sea when you get them they instead go back to starter province beyond that no choice
>>583689693it really is running back and forth the faction
shit I lost starting hero
I love slow steady advancing factions like tomb kings and dwarfsany other factions that feel like this where you just improve your settlements and lose minimal settlements?
>>583691263>slow steady advancing factions>dwarfs???Irondrakes are tier 2 my brüder
What the fuck do I choose? I want to be stealthy and fast.>>583688483Oh yeah I forgot about him, probably the best option.
>>583691615None of those are stealthy but light, beasts and shadows have speed buff spells.
>>583691586mb should have said I play 2 not 3
>>583691615>I want to be stealthy and fastPlay rats then.
>>583679723I want a Wood Elf rework
>>583692262chivalry is DEAD
>>583684831>Lustria start>the boring side of LustriaKhatep starts in Naggaroth, not Lustria.
>>583692617his new short victory reward is also insane
Which faction starts in what would be geographically around the region where you live? For me it's Malekith I believe.
>>583692915Tyrion.
>>583692915fuck off glownigger
>>583692915Elspeth I think
Why the fuck am I stuck inside of the settlement after teleporting? I had full movement when doing it.>>583691762Good thing I picked neither of those..>>583691925Skaven doesn't exist, bro.
>>583692915Kairos.
Where do I go first as Waifu of the end times? Boris? The Khorne guy to the south? I just secured my starting province, i'm trying my first legendary/very hard campaign and I'd like to be as optimal as possible
>>583692915Nagarythe
>>583693492Kholek and rape everything on your way to cathay get their 2 fortresses and return
Ze sand is hot...
>>583693110got too close :^)
is warhammer 3 a halloween game? it is (vamp and undead)is warhammer 3 a christmas game? it is (kislev and norsca)
alright lads who should I play? I have all the DLC and have not played the game in like a full year.
>>583677470Bharatjeeta would've been better as a LH for Zhao Ming. Monkey King will probably be better off as a LH for the fire dragon (forgot his name) whenever he comes out.
>>583693886It's october. Play the spooky factions.
>>583693886Neferata or Elspeth
>>583693886Thanquol
>>583693886VCoast, Delves, Bretonnia and Lizardmen are the only factions not worth playing, since they are due rework and update. They are too basic, boring, simplistic and outdated
>>583694282they should be played because the haven't gotten a easy mode rework yet
>>583694282SFO Bretonnia is kind of neat.
>>583694404SFO bad
>>583694349VCounts rework made them harder
>>583694282>due rework and updateSure, can't wait until every faction gets their own "very speshul" cheat panel.
>>583694556Neferata made me harder.
>>583691586Irondrakes are slow. Irondrakes are steady. They are better when used to mop up enemies crashing into your gun/melee line instead of high-risk high-reward use like, say, fliers that are diving the backline and inflicting huge disruption while being shot to shit.
>>583687875>>583688220meeting labor demands is pretty straightforwards, the only time you really dip below like 90% after the early game is when you have to spend multiple turns in transit (ie pivoting to fight in the world's edge mountains after you take out grimgor as drazhoath). just get into the mindset of "the only thing that matters is feeding the machine". it's more fun and it helps you make better chorf decisions
Lizardmen is the only faction I dont play since they dont have cute girls
>>583695771there's a mod for thatthe kroxigors could look a lot better in it though
>>583695771
>>583695915Is it the mod that turns every single unit female and naked?
>>583687875I haven't played chorfs in a minute, but last time I played the real trick to them wasIf a province has a resource that requires labour, you only put mining camps in it (unless you want a tower, then tower + mining camps).If a province has a resource that doesn't require labour, you only put processing in it (unless you want a tower, etc).Mixing mining and machining, while there is a building for it, is really inefficient to do, outside of specific areas with landmarks that benefit both bigly.Outside of that I think it was generally 2:1 camps to forges, and towers were best built in areas that are 1 or 2 settlements, or if you find yourself floating resources.
>>583696142There's now specifically a "turn lizardmen into big scaly female dinosaurs" mod
regarding chaos dwarvesWich of the 3 is the best for a beginner that never played them
>>583696617I like caster dwarf, but he can be a ballache with Arbaal surprise punching you in the face if he gets bored.
>>583696617Da braj has the easiest start pos.
>>583696516wow that sounds horrible haha Can you link it so I can avoid it lol
>>583696617Play as Astragoth in RoC campaign. Its got a story campaign with decent tutorial.
>>583695771i want a female ll for nurgle and roster is just cute sick girls. they can call it the plague sisters
>>583696948Is it like tomb kings in 2 where I can ignore the weird portal stuff/ vortex and just play the game?
>>583696796I would, but it's an 18+ mod, so I'd have to get my nexus account bypasser and I don't feel like using that to look up a mod I'm not going to use.
it will never not piss me the fuck off to see an ai army at 5 units just shoot up to 20 right in front of me
>>583697118Yep.
>make a hero about ambushing and put him in a thin continent>enemies never march over to take your settlements as you wait in ambushFun.
>>583697128knowing its on nexus and not some random disc is enough damn I hate discord
>>583697260Need to have a shit lord with 2 units walking behind him so AI routes through him trying to get to that shit lord.
>>583697184well guess I know my next campaign
>>583697354That doesnt really work with Kairos because that shirtbird will teleport ambush your bait and force you out of your ambuhs stance.
>>583697616I thought he can't attack the same turn he teleports.And if he can, wouldn't putting your baitlord inside Oxy's red circle ambush the teleport?Haven't played oxy since TWW2 so I've no idea of how that interacts
>>583695064It is simultaneously true that these factions are outdated and very bland and in need of remakes while also saying, yeah, every remake just ends up making a faction easier to stomp with.
>>583697828Teleport stance is an automatic ambush on whatever army you target, at the cost of 40 winds of magic (0 if you get the late-ish game tech)
>>583697828>I thought he can't attack the same turn he teleports.AI doesnt obey to the same rules we do.
>>583697828If the army is in your teleport range you can click to attack them while in teleport stance and it's a free ambush.
>>583698089>>583698383Just learning about that mechanic gave me cancer.
>>583698683I mean, they ARE teleporting on top of you, it'd be a surprise if it wasn't an ambush. Also, it costs 40 winds of magic so like doing it forfeits a big chunk of Tzeentch's greatest strength. You really only do it when you have a massive surplus. I haven't ever seen the AI do it on account of only ever playing AS Kairos when I'm near the south polr though
>>583698839>doing it forfeits a big chunk of Tzeentch's greatest strengthRanged fire power?
>It's time to raise a second army>I have third already, soon 4thheh, you raise a 2nd on your first turn
>>583699395Always hated that.>Raise your second lordBruh I'm on 4>Recruit 30 unitsI just recruited 80.
>>583699209Slinging a shitzillion spells and the stat buffs fron having a near-full meter. The only ranged tzeentch units that are hard to pressure are the flying ones
>>583699529You can get the teleport stance for daniel as one of the earlier gifts of tzeentch too
Who rapes dwarf high armor blobs harderChorfs or skaven?
>>583699860Is daniel unique to play or just another Woc type campaign?
>>583700085Uniquely awful.
Is there a save editor/cheat that allows to change the start condition for the endgame crisis? I haven't finished my long victory with Nagash but endtimes already started
>Arkhan doesn't know any spells from Lore of UndeathYikes! I guess sucking up to Nagash for a few thousand years only pays out so much.
>>583700650Tomb king updates? Never
>>583697260Nigga oxyotl can warp everywhere you shouldnt even be doing this without generics just warp
>>583700138lol
>>583700825You just got your update. There's a nerd with a reedy voice, a big ass bug robot, and double the swag for Settra.
>AI vamps can now insta recruit full stacks starting from turn 1Oh shit, Empire starts just got more difficult
>>583701269They're shitstacks though, no need to fear they'll raise anything but skellies in the early game thanks to the unit caps.
yuri soon
>>583701269Try elspeth on legendary its fun fighting 2 full stacks turn 3 lol
the marienburger question
>Devs make a big deal about how you need to be worried about the amount of corpses you elave laying around in a province since vampires can come and raise them>Can't see corpses when not playing vampires>When playing vampires any part of the map you haven't uncovered yet has 0 corpses, and never gains corpses, non-player undead factions just simulate corpses>No seriously, for a test I put 50k corpses in vlad's province with cheats, not once did the number deplete

>>583701569Despite what the libel directed at her might have led you to believe, Neferata is perfectly straight.
>>583701581I was actually playing her on VH and the starting minor faction insta recruited a full stack on Pfeildorf. easy enough to embush but it surprised me. Not looking forward to getting demolished by Vlad>>583701540I mean a full shitstack of skellies is not complete garbage turn 5
What do you guys think about Neferata's mounts? I just unlocked zombie dragon I'm not sure it's better than the hellsteed, it tanks every stat except HP and damage.
>>583702723hp and damage is what important in lategame. Especially hp since your heal cap is dependant on that.
should be able to transfer books around lords like items in wh2 just make it take a few turns. fuckin tedious spreading your books around to your lords manually
>>583701540Well empire can only recruit shit that early so you rely on the starting units a bunch.Karl and Gothmommy start with pretty good ones at least
>>583702723Foot is better if you're using her to assassinate low armor foot lords (so early game only)Hellsteed is better if you're using her as a caster.Dragon is better for assassinating mid and late game lordsCoven Throne is a chariot with a cool aura
>>583702723The only pointless one is coven throne. Except if you want to larp as necromancer for some reason.
>>583685534cute is this from some bitcher mod?
>>583702723I just like lords on dragons they solo most sieges wich I hate normally and make them fun
>>583703037no idea, but looks like it
I think Khalida and Neferata should kiss
who is the lady anyways? is she hot?
Seriously tho, Why cant niggash unlock Khalida? Didnt she bow to him just so she can get another chance to kill Neffy?
>>583703510Khalida replaced her blood with super poison because she hates Neferata that much.>>583703583Before end times it's heavily implied that she's some kind of wood elf goddess.After end times it's confirmed that she's Thea Summers.

>>583701569Ulrika will join in
>>583702547Naaima lmao.Also one of loli lahmians is noted as sticking out among Lahmians because she prefers men.
What is the point of playing Archaon or Nagash and collecting your Champions/Mortarchs/Books when by the time you get them all or even half, the world, especially order factions have been completely taken over or destroyed by other chaos/undead factionsI never get to fight Bretonnia, High Elves, etc
>>583699916I would say chorfs since they have the choo choo trains

>>583705246I feel like only LotR really fits in terms of recognizable IP + fits for TW. However, the same problem arises that it is the same as Fantasy... or, ya know, Fantasy is just a copy of LotR.The other idea is Warcraft, which would be wild, but at the same time it is AGAIN just a LotR copy.40k is the one that makes the most sense given that it is at least scifi with Elves and Orc/ks. No dwarves though.
