>>583928797IT IS NIGHT
>>583928525>The Space Wolves aren't funny or humorous thoughHis new lore is incredibly shit, but before his new lore he was most famous for locking an inquisitor into pens with groxes who were in a mating frenzy.
>>583928797Why is Glottkin so disliked? Upgrading marauders to Chosen and above feels rewarding and fun. Mid-game Middeland and Empire are a good challenge and having unique LLs other then your main one is cool.
>>583929119nurgle
>>583929119Greatsword NEED to beat glotkin buffed maruaders
I forgot how busted Cathay is, auto resolving my way to boredom, drowning in gold and items.
>>583929309I play on easy difficulty btw
>>583929119Glottkin are characters that got created for End Times and from the moment of their creation, their one and only role in the story was to roll into the Empire at the head of a giant Nurgle-only army and start killing long time named characters, including Louen and Karl.They're kind of the greatest representation of everything that was wrong and people hated about End Times. Just a plot device created to destroy and delete everything that came before them and that fans loved. That, and they were another sign of how much favoritism GW showed for Nurgle.
>>583929365its fine man we're all busy
>>583929424Louen was killed by Festus and Kugath
>>583929119The absolute mess with Chaos in tww3 triggers my autism so fucking hard. And he is another Nurgle themed guy in Warriors of Chaos which are separate from Monogods which are separate from Daemons of Chaos which are separate from Norsca aaaaa
>>583929309Caravans are honestly ridiculously overpowered, getting free super powerful items and a 4-6X boost on your invested gold PLUS whatever gold you get from winning any battles on the way is just pure profit, the "risks" are barely existent at all. >>583929037>Before his new loreIsn't that the whole point though? Old 40K was humourous and filled with stuff like that, but they've removed or scrubbed basically all of it in current 40K.
>>583929524Didn't he kill Festus, get grievously wounded by Ku'gath but banished him in return, then get killed by Glottkin?
>>583929440For sure. People who want a difficuly, calculative campaign can play on the harder difficulties while people who just like to turn off their brains and press click to smash can always play on normal and lower difficulties. And that's fine.
>>583929119We have big n*rgle fatigue, he's the lamest chaos god.
>start a new campaign>7-8 turns in>decide to go south to kill vamp>orc on the east declares war on me>reload save>go east to declare war on orc>vamp in south declare war on me insteadSubtle, so very subtle.
>>583929937If you're ever not at war the AI will basically throw an enemy at youTo the point where declaring some random war early will keep your flank safe
>>583929678He killed Ku'gath, then got mortally wounded by Festus and died from injuries.
>>583929937>Leaves flank undefended>Enemy takes advantage>Save scum like a faggot>Rinse and repeat>HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN TO MEEEEEEEEShocking.
>>583930173>got mortally wounded by FestusThey couldn't think of a better chaos character to merc him with?
>>583930116Ah, clever.>>583930369>calling out savescumming when the AI blatantly cheats
>>583930173Ah, I remembered it backwards then.Still, it was Glottkin's army.
>>583930430>AI blatantly cheatsWhich is the only reason it presents even a modicum of challenge to the player. Just install cheats aplenty, turn the difficulty to easy, and stop pretending you're actually interested in playing anything real, that way you can stop posting about how "hard" this incredibly easy game is here.
It's fucking turn 9 and I have 3 fucking armies coming, fuck off..
>>583930623>7 corpse carts
>>583930841CA can only afford AI, not SI
>>583930895>SIi don't even know what that is, am i retarded?
Do players actually use shitty units on the tabletop?
>>583931138>am i retarded?No.Super Intelligence.
>>583931138simulated intelligence
>>583930623Aside from the corpse carts your blunderbussies are gonna carry the shit out of you here.
>>583880674I resorted to cheat. May God have mercy on my soul.
The fucking killed handmaidens. No point in using them now.
Time for a quick look at the top cheats on Steam workcheats, putting aside graphics overhauls or narrative stuff:#1 VCO, a cheat that lets you bypass the actual win conditions in the game so you can quickly "defeat" the game in a much shorter, easier fashion, and as a bonus it gives you significant campaign and mechanical bonuses so you can snowball your fake victory to even further trivialize the game from there.#2 Recruit Defeated Legendary Lords, a cheat that lets you avoid having to lose out on LLs of your race who get taken out early, and also frees you up from having to care about defending them if you wanted them on your roster. Now you just ignore them and get them regardless, making your campaign that much easier, which, as always, is the purpose of a cheat and why people use it.#3 Auto Resolve Quest battle, a cheat that lets you bypass actually having to play a manual battle, the greatest fear and most terrible nemesis of any cheatsfags, which is rather shocking since they usually have about 100 cheats active that make manual battles a joke anyway. #4 Deithland, an Empire Overhaul, which gives the Empire overpowered unit after overpowered unit, because Sigmar knows it's just too damn hard to play the Empire as is, even with the latest batch of DLC buffs and options, no, cheatsfags MUST have the cheat filled roster or it's just "unplayable".#5 Double Skill Points & Skill Dump, because cheatsfags can't handle actually having to carefully allocate skill points and have their lords and heroes have a slow progression to higher power levels, so they install this cheat that effectively doubles the levels of all their heores and lords. Classically, cheatsfags justify this with "well the AI gets the skillpoints too!" conveniently ignoring that the AI takes nowhere near the advantage of this cheat that the player does, in any way shape or form. Pathetic rationalization like this is common in the cheatsfag, lacking in dignity as he is.
>>583931235can this retarded faggot drop dead alreadyi know the next one will be just as much of a jewish puppet but eh
>>583931509Let us all welcome Handmaidens into the illustrious ranks of every other ranged hero in being an actually useless waste of space you're better off using genuinely anything else in place of.
>>583931267Yeah, I tried my best building the chokepoint for them.
>>583931775wew ladgood luck. I believe in you.
>>583931571And yet CA still felt like they need to buff Nagash.This playerbase is the worst RTS playerbase I know. Probably because RTS players are like only 10% of the overall Snoozehammer TW playerbase.
Why are buff spells so underwhelming?Here lemme cast this 20 second buff on a unit that'll only get like 3 swings in or I can just cast delete blob for like 2-3 more winds.
>every single end times army is completely unbreakableOh fuck this
>>583932138Buffs and debuffs can be good if they affect all units in range and not one.
>>583930623New VC are wilding out, my Settra campaign was a complete ballache trying to stomp out Mannfred's stacks
>>583932329>Build an army of 19 heroes with -2 Enemy Leadership>Don't use them for battles, just move them into regions where my armies are going to war>Useless in the end gameFeels bad
>>583931173I was wondering how 40k might work so I looked up some community tactics/guides and apparently getting chaff on objectives is done just to win through points, and without objectives they'd be pointlessSounds complete ass but it's how my beloved Tyranids work there I guess
>>583932138Because how can you really play around it? Damage spells you're at least supposed to be able to evade stuff, even if most infantry is too fucking slow and units in general are slow to respond compared to any RTS out there>>583932346Source? Studies? Increase in damage dealt per WoM?
#6 Guns Of Erengrad, yet ANOTHER cheat overhaul of a roster that is already plenty strong as it is, because cheatsfags can't rest until every roster is full of OP units that go completely against faction identity. #7 And in that vein, we have TW: Millennium, Modern Warfare, which adds fucking SIXTY THREE units to the Empire. Because of course roster bloat is not a concern in the critically damaged brain of the cheatsfag. I'm not even gonna get into how ridiculous of a cheat this one is, as it even revamps technology trees and buildings AND formations because MORE MORE MORE is all the cheatsfag can comprehend as being "better". Repulsive.#8 is EXPANDED HERO SKILL TREES which give a bunch of op skills and thereby unnecessary buffs to heroes that didn't need them in the first place. As if this game didn't suffer from herohammer enough in the firstplace, cheatsfags just, as always, make it worse.At #9 we have PROACTIVE GARRISON ATTACK, that way you can just have your garrisons attack enemies that get too close because it's JUST TOO HARD to recruit a lord for this purpose when you see an enemy getting near your territory. Automation of basic mental processes, always a favorite for cheatsfags.And #10 we have LANDMARKS OF LEGEND, which adds a ton of overpowered buildings and units connected to those buildings so you can, as always, snowball hard, harder, and hardest in a game where snowballing is already a problem. And finally, rounding it all out with a special mention at #11 is WARBAND UPGRADE ULTIMATE, which lets you ignore SO MANY THINGS IN THE GAME it's stunning. Building up to new tier units and planning out your building slots to get the units you want? GONE. Having to circle back to your main recruitment territory or send a Lord out to exchange troops with your main Lord? GONE. Just sit there and tap the cheat button to turn your low tier army into a Tier 3, IV or even V army without any COMPLICATIONS (also known as gameplay) at all.
>>583932138Those self buff for mega charge yellow tree are pretty good
Fighting against an actually aggressive AI made me realize that trying to tardwrangle enemies try to fuck me from atleast 2-3 sides at turn 5 is not THAT fun
>>583931857Looks like another failed campaign.
>>583932973Damn dude. That sucks. RIP. You tried!
>>583931940I agree. I think most of the players treat this game like a knock off Civilization and actively resent the RTS part of the game, which is why they create so many campaign and unit cheats to essentially bypass or trivialize that part of the game, which is nuts, since that's the actual core part of the game series to begin with.
>>583931571>>583932886Well, what the fuck do you want? Want me to go to their houses and tell their parents they're playing the videogames wrong? Nigga just don't install those.
>>583932886>seething about how people play their singleplayer gameNot a good look.
>>583932138It's a common complaint. One of the few cheats I agree with are the ones that revamp buff spells to actually be useful, if you're playing the vanilla game there is genuinely no reason to use them over damage options. Genuinely a trap for newer players to put skill points into.
>>583933142Funniest part is that cheats to break the game are like 99% of workshop already, and they are MUCH easier to make than mods that FIX the broken balance.Like, I'm whining because there's no mods that fix the balance. If the game's broken, I'm stuck with it. But retards that only want spectacle instead of an actual game have so much cheats to choose from, yet they force CA to accomodate to their tastes anyway.Probably because they are so stupid they aren't capable of using workshop, idunno.
>>583932973>No white dotYou fought with honor. There is no shame in your defeat.
>>583932973I'd say shielded chaos dwarfs are always the better pick even against no ranged, but I don't think it would have made the difference because new AI VC are just overtuned as fuck
>>583933658We need a black dot cheat for cheats that make the game more difficult.To differentiate.
>>583932680Basically there's Battleline units that use to matter more in 40k or basically acted like the way Unit Cap stuff does. But then they made them semi-useless in the way you said where if it wasn't for the objectives, no one would take them. 'Do you have any idea how many Peasants are used in Cathay meta armies in Tabletop?
>>583933658what does that mean
>>583933658there's a cheat to get rid of the cheat dot, I assume every one of you is a cheater
>>583933557Yeah. Like, where are the mods that actually exist to make the game harder? There's a few that try to fix the dumb AI and such, but that's about it. Maybe tabletop caps, but that doesn't really make it harder since the AI is also limited in its army composition. And meanwhile the VAST majority of mods are flat out cheats that make the game easier, that's all they are there for, and there are always endless new variants of this theme. And like you say, on top of that, CA caters to the dumbfucks with endless DLC power creep and, for once, we get a somewhat interesting new campaign with Nagash, and it is virtually INSTANTLY nerfed into the ground to make it just another easy mode joke. It's ridiculous.
The mods = cheats poster be like
>>583934184you can easily make a mod that modifies stats by yourself
>>583934150The fact that there's actually a cheat to remove the dot showing you're cheating is proof positive the cheatsfags are, deep in their hearts, ashamed of their deeds and words.
>>583933142Unabashedly me, I mod the everloving shit out of the campaign and use AI General to watch my battles sometimesI'd be playing Mark of Chaos or Dawn of War if I actually cared about the RTS part
>>583934184There was a modder from the times of WH2, author of Nerfageddon mod - this mod attempted to address the powercreep and stuff.But after a couple of years of WH3 he gave up, saying this shit is too broken and he got tired of fixing that.The biggest loss of our community to this day, imo.
Guess I'll play Neferata again now that they fixed the confed legendary lord item bug.
>>583931173You don't have much choice given the rules change all the time but you still have the same units. Over time you'll just collect a big army and be able to change with the editions but that takes ages unless you're made of money or are fine with speed painting everything.
bretonnia has to be the worst fucking faction in the game holy fuckliterally 0 impact unless you autistically micromanage your knights to cycle charge and even then the results are sub-par
>>583934349its allegedly to stop the dead pixel from ruining OLED monitors but that seems like a convenient cover story
>>583934380Mannfred could beat Nagash at arm wrestling.
>>583933836Spirit Hosts seem like they would be really hard to deal with as Chorfs early on.
>>583931571>Recruit Defeated Legendary LordsLiterally one of the strongest ways to buff AI. Anyone who doesn't understand this is retarded. It means that defeated enemy AI lords (all of them, not only LLs) will keep merging into one faction INDEFNIETLY, retaining their experience to further oppose you. Amount of LLs you can get is always smaller than amount of lords all enemy factions in game you can get and it's not any buff to you anyway.You are downright cheating by not using this modOnly better mods to improve AI are more building slots per city. Those are an absolute game changer which will make all factions far, far, FAR stronger. This is because limited amount of building slots per city they added to post Med2 Total Wars is an utterly, completely, meaningless nonfeature for player who will always optimize their cities properly. This is something however AI is not capable of, let alone having foresight to build crucial buildings in secure areas. Which is why even if AI builds useful building and improves them, they will lose them to a player sniping their region.By letting AI build all buildings, essentially removing a chance for AI to fuck up it's cities, they will be able to build walls everywhere and field elite units with boosted economyAgain, you are cheating if you are not using more building slots per city mods
>>583934348It's not that easy. If you want BALANCE, you need a lot of testing, and a lot of tinkering with mechanics and scripts. Like, for example, removing the Eshin's stupid ability to just nuke a whole faction with something more sensible is not as easy as buffing/nerfing stats of some unit.Meanwhile, if you want the game to play itself, you can just overbuff your units and be done with it and have your fun.
Patiently waiting for the Tomb Kings FLC.
>>583934762sure, but if it's such a common sentiment someone would surely try
>>583934184>Like, where are the mods that actually exist to make the game harder?I only use thishttps://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2909055000Rest are just QoL like better shield icons/unit cards or Extreme Smoke & FlashAlso Throgg voice mod still mogs the new take, and Bloodletters need a mod to have voices which is crazy to me
>>583934348I don't want stat sliders, though, I want actual changes to the gameplay the way the cheatsfags get to make it easier, but instead make it more difficult. The only cheat I ever played that satisfied me in that regard was, of all things, the Yin-Yin cheat, at least in its initial release it was an actually hard campaign. She snowballed hard later but man the early parts were actually a challenge, it was great. I think now some Chinese modder made a version where she's super OP from the get go and it's the most popular version of the cheat now, though, so yeah. Same as always.
I really don't get the whole autism a lot of people here have in their stance against mods, it feels exaggerated and forced for most cases.
>>583932886Calling mods cheats (what they are) gotta be my favourite /twg/ tradition
where's the cheat that stops aislinn's armies from using this tedious shit
>>583934947because it isit's one of those EBIN ritual posts
Now we wait for 40K, when is the goddamn beta test?
>>583933557>>583934184Make your own mods then faggots instead of bitching on 4chan.
>>583934184Recruit Legendary LordsMore Building Slotsexplained here >>583934668Unnatural Selection guarantees enemy AI of your nemesis will always manage to build an empireMore sensible Public Order https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=3568799302That's off the top of my head. They are always in my list
>>583934668>Massive cheatsfag copeDo you have any sense of shame at all?
>>583934492What's speed painting? Do you get laughed out of the store for doing it?
>>583935125I already got the email
>>583934786Coming just after the Bretonnia rework and Tzeentch FLC.
>Turn 17>Just defeated Vlad>Strengh rank 1 Gorbad rolls up with 4 Waagh stacksIt's Empover....
>>583934854Not that common, unfortunately. "It's a singleplayer game, who cares lmao I'm having fun!", both here and on reddit it's the most prevalent opinion.I think this opinion is retarded, but who am I eh.
>>583935157don't talk me shitter, if you don't use those mods
>have a few lords in the field>have to move each one individually to take out the turn icon for moving lords because I click pass on that icon it will pass for ALL OF THEM instead of just that one it was currently pointing toGod that's annoying. I also don't want to operate on individual notification.
>see big overhaul mod I havent tried before>it looks kinda cool from the videos and screenshots>all the units just end up being worse versions of whats already available in the gamewhat a letdown
>>583929883He's cool, it's just that he's really overdone across Games Workshop games because Nurgle is the safest Chaos God to work with.>Tzeentch is too cerebral and weird for most people except for nerds to vibe with it>Khorne is way too violent and bloody and would send age restrictions shooting through the roof>Slaanesh is way too sexual and would also send age restrictions shooting through the roof>Nurgle is just generic gross zombie horror that most normies can gel with and isn't too weird for them
Do you think that we will ever get an FLC lord ever again?
>>583935149You niggers are allowed to bitch about how Teutogen Guard loses to chosen, but I'm not allowed to bitch that this game is a snoozefest?Go fuck yourself.
>>583935386which one
>>583935235kino situation if you had pic related
Is there a mod to speed up battle faster than you can by default? I feel like it's taking way too long for armies to walk up to each other at the start of combat and it's getting annoying on repeat. >inb4 some turbo autistim comes in to force his cheat forced meme
>>583935487That Empire Deither overhaul mod or whatever it's called that basically adds a bunch of WW1 style units
>Total War title dropKINOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>583935283I don't think it's retarded. It's a single player game after all, who cares what other people do as long as it doesn't affect you? And here you can have an argument I guessBut I am also sympathetic to wanting a harder/more difficult experience and more depth, but I just can't blame the people making their ez mode mods for not trying to make "good" mods instead. It sucks but it is what it is
>>583935776pyrehulks are kino though
>>583935435I never bitched about that, nice strawman. And before you claim I use cheat mods, I use one mod the better camera mod. If the mods you want don't exist stop complaining like a child be a man and make your own. With AI these days you have no excuse.
>>583935125Do I... like the Ultramarines...??
>>583933061>>583933658I FUCKING DID ITEAT SHIT AI
>>583935150I already use Unnatural Selection. I can see your reasoning on more building slots but it's entirely unnecessary since if you install the AI cheats the AI builds better armies and buildings anyway, WITHOUT giving you, the player, access to way more building slots than you should have. You're just removing choice and giving yourself everything with MBS, don't kid yourself. More sensible Public Order is a cheat, it helps the player far more than the AI. And I will never use Recruit Defeated Legendary Lords, it is absolutely 100% a cheat and anyone claiming otherwise is just a lying faggot who can't admit their own vices. The only way you could justify using it is if you, the player, NEVER take the LLs from the defeated factions and only let the AI do so. THAT would be an actual argument to using the cheat, to let the AI use it, but refrain from doing so yourself, but somehow I doubt the people claiming it's not a cheat are actually doing that.
>>583935945yeah I'm sending this to CAnerf these dorfs to hell
>>583935417egrimm is coming march 14th 2027 trust me my dad works for legendoftotalwar
>>583929037It's just a based prank bro
>>583935945A reminder to everyone that Astragoth Zulahoo starts with 6800 health and 130 armour.
>>583935640this is the most adhd post I have seen today congrats
>>583935945Oh shit and I doubted you there. Congrats king.
Vlad or Neferata for campaign? Starting position, enemies you fight, etc. Asking based on fun not difficulty.
>>583936152Vlad.
>>583934947It's not though. They really are cheats. They exist to make the game easier and let people claim they "play on Legendary/VH" when what they are actually doing is playing on a level below that of an Easy/Easy player with the amount of cheats they have stacked on their campaigns. And yet these players still have the gall to comment on and talk about game balance or how campaigns work when they don't have the first clue about how anything actually works because they have never, and will never, play an actual game of TWW in their lives.
>>583935945Your shit tier units all have fire damage which completely negates most of the power VC have
>>583936091Meant for >>583936205
>>583936152Neither. Kemmler is your guy.
>>583936152Nefertatas, the covens are fun to play around of. Cover your flanks by making sure the faction bordering you loves you, suck Zharr-Naggrund dry of money.
>>583935390Nurgle is cool yes but tragically he's so excessively overdone that it loops around to being cringe and lame.Nurgle was not only a main push of end times, but he's also>the main antagonist faction for Vermintide 1 and 2>Main antagonist for darktide>Got the most DLC>Has every unique hero under the sunIt's been too much Nurgle for years, but at least we got Tzeentch and Khorne in Space Marine
>mod to skip logos at game launch>some ape starts screeching in twg about some make believe scenarioYou people have mental issues.
>>583936384I cannot look down any harder on people who pick vampire counts to play... not a vampire, but an old dude who reads books. You are no brother of mine. I don't believe you are anyone's brother.
>>583935834No, I have no problem with ez mod mods at all.I have the problem with the game itself being ez mod. Not even that itself, but as a result. Some games can be fun, even if they're easy.Total War on ez mode is boring as fuck.
>>583936205>half of the custom factions blow ass or revolve around a gimmick>SFO and similar are meant to make the game harder>Arguably UI mods and other conveniences do make the game easier but that's not the primary point>Rework mods do usually make the game easier by evening out the power creepIt isn't like Legendary/VH is an achievement considering how much more free shit each lore collectively gets. Skaven were a challenge maybe before Ikit, a decent enough challenge but not hard after unless you play a CBT campaign like Queek, and now it's just kind of easy because Verminlords are the best lords ever and Skreech is one-man army tier. It just happens
>>583936664>Total War on ez mode is boring as fuck.Agreed. Or well, it's fun to get to that point where you start steam rolling, but then I quickly lose interest
>>583931571fucking disgusting, the game is already brain numbingly easy. fucking NPCs.
>>583935390Nah let me fix that for you:T'zeentch is the super intelligent, brilliant schemer, which means the writers creating storylines and characters for this guy have to be smart to write well, and, generally they simply aren't, so you get the Sherlock Holmes written by dumb people effect if they even make the attempt.Khorne has the opposite problem, how do you make a villain compelling or interesting when it's just "maim burn kill!" and that's it? He's too simple.I actually agree with you on Slaanesh, she should be used way more often, but he isn't because you aren't allowed to lean into her more titillating aspects and that doesn't leave you much to work with, so she gets abandoned even though he should be used the most out of all of them.So you're left with Nurgle, who is simple enough that you don't have to get Machiavellian like T'zeentch, but you can be more complex than Khorne, and you can just make gross jokes about obesity and smelling bad rather than touching the icky wrong bad sex stuff, and you're solid. Thus, Nurgle antagonists are by far the most common in 40K media, honestly feels like a 60-70% split in his direction, if not more.
>>583936448Kind of sucks for Darktide especially because they seemed to have a song and stage that would've fit perfectly for a Slaneesh drop. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCMMHN6rBMo
>>583936759Every Total War is like that.But in Warhammer 3 you start steamrolling on turn 20, which is ridiculous.Or in case of some campaigns, you have no challenge to begin with. It's... just dumb, I dunno.
>>583931571Didn't ask
Nurgle spam would be less annoying if not for the fact that literally every Nurgle character is exactly the fucking same>this is Shitpiss Stinkfarter>his personality is that he shits, pisses, stinks and farts
>>583936152Vlad is still one of the most fun campaigns in the game, there's always more stuff to fight, you never get bored.
>>583937051>Shitpiss StinkfarterPlease this isn't AoS
>>583935390>Khorne and Slaanesh would send age restrictions shooting through the roofDidn't CA censor the guts from Nurgle daemons for that exact reason?
Ratbros…. We’re so fucking back.Legendary hero pack incoming
>>583936664>Total War on ez mode is boring as fuckYes, exactly. That's why I do not get these cheatsfags, how is it fun to just auto win everything and mindlessly click through campaign notifications? You're not even playing a game at that point, you might as well be "playing" cookie clicker.
>>583937195Yes they changed exposed nurgle guts for generic daemon mouths.
I wonder if it's worth spending like 10 turns to get my first handmaiden hero all the way over to something big like Altdorf
>>583937051This applies to every chaos character.
>>583937360Yeah, one of the long victory cities go for. I put mine in Azahg’s capital hoping for an easy vassal and that shit did not work.
Saars, we have the needful.
>>583937360It's not like a ranged hero is actually useful in an army so you should be good.
>>583937117not yet
My campaigns got so much easier once I started mass recruiting new lords early on. I think I accidentally psyopped myself into Legend's playstyle.Also, the people calling mods cheats are so fucking cringe. It's a singleplayer game, stop trying to act superior. We're nerds and losers, not crabs in a bucket. Fuck, I hate you faggots so much, please kill yourselves to relieve the world of the weight of your misery. Also, Alarielle feels so easy, you just need to manual battle your first few turns to keep losses low enough to prevent pile-on declarations. I think I may have burned myself out, though. I've fought so many archer-spearmanii battles where I use a handmaiden to drag fast mivers into my line, then spam spells into the blobs while focus-firing any enemy ranged. Are Helves actually bad? They seem to be snowballing even harder than Chorfs
>>583932461last Settra I had was amazing, I was bullying Nagash and Mannfred from the startI had this location appear on Khemri on turn 5 total game changer
Does anyone know of a mod to give Archaon the portals that Be'lakor can spawn? In the meantime, rollin1-2 Nagash3-4 Archaon5-6 Boris (is his mechanic worth not just playing Franz?)7- Vilitch8- Glottkin9- Valkia0- Sigvald
>>583931571Recruit defeated lords in some cases is pretty much the only way to get Wulfhart nowadays.I very rarely use it but its the TRUTH
>>583936152always Neferata. Pretty much the best counts campaign and one of the best campaigns in the game.
>>583937360what for? you're probably not gonna interact with franz in any meaningful way for dozens of turns afterwards, the +relation coven stuff works fast so you can drop it later when needed, and the settlements closer to you like the chorf capital or drakenhof make way more money than altdorf
>>583937609holy shit wtf!
>>583937051Its hit or miss>kugath is stinky and poopoo peepee>tahmurkahn is a worm puppeting a dead ogre and they gave him this weird affixation to friendship is magic (which is on par for nurgle)>epidemius is poopoo peepee but also the IRSIt’s not just nurgle tho, khorne is worse>skarbrand, he kills good>skulltaker, he kills good>arbaal, he kills good
>>583937650Same with Volkmar really. Grombrindal too before they changed dorf confederations
>>583936205>They exist to make the game easier and let people claim they "play on Legendary/VH"I think you might be autistic anon. They exist to add a lot of extra fun things to the game, it's a video game. Some add quality of life as well, others add th9ings that make sense and should have been in but just aren't. Some of them true enough do go balls to the wall, and there's a place for those sort of mods as well.Nobody is being allowed to claim they "play on legendary/vh" as if that's some sort of achievement. We've all done it enough. That's like being upset someone is claiming they walk on two legs. That's so basic nobody gives a fuck. Trying to act like you're stuck making a big deal out of something so inane when people have already moved on makes you look like you started playing the game this week.
>>583937558It's not about the army. My doubt is that that's some 10 turns of having a coven that I'm losing having nothing but some whore crusading in the mountains.I don't think anyone uses those in an army anyway, do they? The handmaidens people talk about are the unit handmaidens which are crazy OP and should continue to be so even after their knockback nerf today.
>return of the cheatsfagNot on my bingo card today
AAAAAACHOO
>>583937806>A lot of extra fun things to the gameWhich conveniently always trivialize the game and make it easier for the player. Also don't try to confuse the issue by throwing in non gameplay related mods which only an idiot would conflate with stuff that actually affects the gameplay.
>>583936205Which one here makes the game easier? >>583937001

>>583938149>No Undead Fire EyesRemoves the terror and intimidation of Undead armies, letting the player focus on his gameplay without fear, making the game easier.>No Corruption GraphicsEases the painful eye rape players must normally endure when fighting Chaos thus allowing an easier campaign.>Legendary LoreIncentivizes lore nerds to keep playing a campaign just to read more stuff, adding motivation that would otherwise not be there.>Quick Building Upgrade, Cspecifics Skill QueueTrivializes the mandatory busywork the game enforces on you and saves potentially hours of time that you would otherwise have to slog through, making the campaign easier.>The Old WorldThis IS a cheat. It's designed for players who do not like the pressure of the early game and having multiple LLs breathing down their neck, and lets them fight irrelevant weaklings for multiple turns, only having to face real threats once they have built up their empire. The cope the fags who use this cheat use, of course, is that the enemy factions ALSO have an empire, but in reality it's never a real threat at that point since a player with a ton of territories will always easily stomp an AI with the same. People who use this cheat remind of the guys in old RTS games who would create lobbies with "10 minutes no rush" in the title, since they just wanted to base build forever before actually fighting, they hated being threatened early game, and that's what the Old World cheat is built for. It's a casual mode of the actual game.
>>583938830Isn't Ulrika some whore who got railed by Felix?

Boris or Franz? How are they different given they start right on top of eachother?
What do we think about new lore of Nehekhara ?
>>583939101That's cheating.
>>583937117Anon you can literally generate a lord named Toxfarter.
>>583938348>Some doTry "the vast majority do". Find me mods that make the game harder, if you even can, and I will find ten, twenty, thirty to every one you find that make the game easier. It's almost as if calling them cheats is factually correct, or something. It's fine if you want to cheat, it IS a single player game, but don't act like you're actually playing anything real or deserve to comment on how the game plays when you're just inputting the game genie code in and "playing" the game.
>>583938948>kvetching about Old Worldkek what a BITCH
>>583938690>Tamurkhan has the best campaignThat's a rather bold claim. Have you any facts or argumentation to back this up?
>>583939147Not that different in terms of campaigns. You do have to fight a lot of RAROOS as Boris. You get better buffs as a faction than Franz though but it was the same with Elspeth before.Boris made Karls campaign easier in some ways. Kemmler is now a way bigger threat but Boris can reliably handle Festus Khazrak and those forest goblins
>>583939228>Oh NOOO I'm actually in DANGER early game and have to expand fast and prioritize threats! UNACCEPTABLE!Please faggot, you can have your casual mode cheat but be real about what you're doing.

>>583939496Nah you are just retarded and couldn't fathom why someone would want to play on a different map.Do you call vortex map a cheat too?
>>583935167Speed painting is what it sounds like, you just slap on some paint and call it a day, basically to just get them playable according to tournament rules. People won't laugh at your for doing it but painting your minis nicely is the majority of the hobby since you're spending actual money on these things. just imagine if there was some kind of game that required you to cosplay to participate and there was a whole subcategory of player who simply didn't like cosplaying but wanted to play anyway and just studied the rules for what counts as a legal costume and showed up to the events dressed in the worst looking costumes ever. Why not play any other game that doesn't force you to do this?
>>583939101Yes.https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3647419004
>>583939627None of the AA settings are very good. Maybe an Nvidia override would work
>>583939147Franz's focus is now to fully conquering Brettonia before Vlad gets too uppity.
>>583939628I can fathom it just fine, I already went over why people like the Old World, because it is a casual mode where they can slowly build up and expand without being threatened early game. Fine if you like it, but don't pretend it isn't a cheat that casualizes the game.

>>583940026>>583940258Its sounds like Tamurkhan is strong because friendship is magic.
>>583940138rip nigga>>583940352depends on what quality you're using it atbalanced should give you superior to base TAA
>>583935995>You're just removing choice and giving yourself everything with MBS, don't kid yourself.This is an utterly meaningless addition. No player needs this. Your slow growth and amount of cash will limit you anyway. It's cosmetic for you.Meanwhile all AI, including minor factions, WILL make use of this. Even npc factions will develop strong elite armies and fortified cities with this. You as a player are always alone against hundreds of factions and this gives an edge to all of them>Recruit Defeated Legendary Lords, it is absolutely 100% a cheatWrong. Only people who do not understand what this entails think so. How do you think it works? It let's everyone congregate into one faction. This includes even minor factions. If you kill Varg, Surtha WILL simply go join another Norscan factions, retaining his level, to pester you more. If you are playing as Greenskins, then Dwarf LLs jobbing all over the world WILL join Thorgrim. Minor Dwarf faction generic leader you destroyed, WILL retain his level and WILL join Thorgrim to further fight you. And this magnifies the more custom LLs mods you have installed. If you use that Norsca mod you are massively boosting those enemies in your Karl campaign and they are now a bitch to remove.And in exchange you can do what? You will get to recruit fucking Wulfhart lmaoPeople no doubt don't use those mods to make game harder. They are too dumb to understand what those mods actually do. But they do make game harder since you as a Player are only 1 faction facing hundreds who are all boosted by those mods all the same
>>583940168False.
What characters -already in the game or not- would make for a good naval-themed campaign with their own ship mechanic?Abnagg Hellbeard or Tordrek Hackhart would be cool for the Chaos Dwarfs.>Abnagg Hellbeard is a Chaos Dwarf Lord and Admiral who led a massive fleet to attack the Fortress of the Dawn.>His flagship is the Thunderfire Battlebarge, the Hammerblaze.There's also Tordrek Hackhart for the Chaos Dwarfs.>Tordrek Hackhart is a renegade Dwarf Master Engineer, commander of the Black KrakenFor the Tomb Kings there's Amanhotep with his ship the Curse of Zandri>The ship has hundreds of Skeleton oarsmen and four huge statues of the gods that can propel it through the water with undying strength. Screaming Skull Catapults line its decks, at the prow is the Great Blade of Kharpesh and at the stern is the Jewel of the River Mortis which harnesses the power of the sun to fire beams of energy.
>>583928797Rework Mortarch confederation conditions.
>>583939152I don't like it. And it sucks that 2/3 of TK's caster LLs are stuck with it.
>>583940541You have to pick and choose what to build without MBS. With it, you can just build everything. It gets worse if you are using landmark cheats, of course. I just cannot agree with you on this. The LL issue I already went over with you, the only way you could convince me it's not a cheat is if you as the player refuse to use it at all and are specifically using it to let the AI reuse LLs to fight you with. If you are using it to grab LLs you would've otherwise lost access to, you are cheating, simple as that.
>>583940784Dieter and Walach got a lot more fun.

>>583940784I want more VCunts RoRs
>>583941097Yeah, me
I tested Teutogen after supposed buff vs Chaos warriors and chosen both with GW. I don't really see big difference. They beat warriors with extreme HP loss and they lose to Chosen badly. Do I miss something or did they fuck up again.
>>583941275Handmaiden RoR when? Both Death and Shadows
>>583937397Not really. Go to Tzeentch and your options are Kairos, a giant two-headed bird demon who sees the past and future, Changeling, a trickster who transforms into other people to start problem and Vilitch, a norscan loser parasitizing his norscan winner brother. Go to Slaanesh and your options are N'kari, the greater daemon, Dechala, a snake woman-elf, Masque the gross eternally dancing daemonette or Sigvald, at first glance a completely normal and handsome human but actually possibly the most evil of them all. Even Khorne manages some variety, Arbaal, Skulltaker, Skarbrand and Valkia all look different from each other and even have personality gimmicks.Every damn Nurgle character is a fat green dude that likes gross stuff. Tamurkhan is the only one that very slightly breaks the mold by being a giant maggot, but then he goes and inhabits a, you guessed it, big fat green gross body.
>>583941361you MUST test them against greatswords
>>583941361Run the test 1000 times then report back
>>583941381bodied that nurglite freak
>>583941381Yeah Nurgle is the most one note of the Chaos Gods, and sadly, he's the one that's used for most material so it's even more overdone and tiresome than it would be if the spread was more even in material, both in Fantasy and 40K. I swear GW need to either bite the bullet and straight up kill off Slaanesh, or actually use her to his full extent. This inbetween nonsense is pointless.
Post a battle test.
Valkia alone has more character than every Nurgloid combined
I like Nurgle though...I think he's neat.
>>583940784>hold 10 Provinces>hold 10 portsThe most cancerous ones now.

I really dislike the coven throne or whatever that mount is called.
>>583941936I like the concept but GW shouldn't be above the criticism that they make every damn nurglite the same.Where's my fucking giant toxic slime man, GW? Where's my Hutt-looking slug man? Where's my human that instead of bloating up shoots the other way and becomes disgustingly squalid and gangly?At least 40k has Mortarion's model which actually kicks ass with the giant moth wings even though I don't like Mortarion as a character, but the model is objectively fucking sick.
>>583942442Thank you, Claude-sama
>>583941936How? He's about as boring and one note as you can get. Every other Chaos God is more interesting than him, even Khorne.
>>583941936>>583941805Yeah I don't know what it is about him that draws people in, like alot of them. I'm not against him or his army/concepts existing, especially for evil antagonist purposes, but from the tabletop side of thing I've seen so much "Ew, why would they make that?" on stuff like Slaneesh (pre-trannyfying)from the same people who will literally paint shit on on their models' butt cheeks.I think there's some tabletop game called Turnip where its basically a Nurgle-lover's wet dream and guess, what, many nurgle lovers happen to play/paint for that game.
>>583942495>objectively fucking sickWell, yeah, that's kinda what you'd expect from nurglites isn't it.

Building up to new tier units and planning out your building slots to get the units you want? GONE. Having to circle back to your main recruitment territory or send a Lord out to exchange troops with your main Lord? GONE. Just sit there and tap the cheat button to turn your low tier army into a Tier 3, IV or even V army without any COMPLICATIONS (also known as gameplay) at all.Attila does this and it's far harder than the shitty babbymode game you're defending the honor of ever will be

And T'zeentch is far spookier than Nurgle with all the shenanigans he gets up to, Nurgle is just like an abusive husband who beats you until you love him, T'zeentch actually mind fucks you to the point you're not even sure what's real and what isn't anymore, and at the end, you don't even really care.

>>583946798The common denominator often seems to be that the people posting have no idea what to do when the armies are somewhat equal in strength (and the AI does more than just recruit shitstacks) and their level 50 lord can't cheese and solo entire armies. So while I do agree with your point that Warhammer CAN be more difficult to micromanage, I also think the criticisms of Warhammer powerscaling causing your brain to get dumber are also true. Especially if you stick to the powercreep DLC factions. Shitposting aside, I also like Warhammer.

>>583940942>You have to pick and choose what to build without MBS.This is fit a hole game for kids tier for any player. It doesn't add any depth, only handicaps AI. This is a common complaint from Med2/Rome1 players, just like an arbitrary province system. By removing it you flat out boost all enemy factions in game period>. If you are using it to grab LLs you would've otherwise lost access to, you are cheating, simple as that.Why do you put so much value into this? Using LL instead of your highly leveled generic Lord is a cosmetic change.All enemy factions stacking leveled up Lords endlessly which keep improving endlessly overrides any "advantage" player can get by handicapping himself by using Wulfhart instead of a Master Engineer
>>583948639>It's a cosmetic changeHow? They provide much better buffs and have better stat lines and skill choices than generic Lords. You are flat out making false statements at this point to justify your cheatfaggotry, I'm done bothering with you. Feel free to cheat man, it's a single player game, but be honest with yourself that you ARE cheating.
>>583940942It is trivially easy for most players to pick up their faction's LLs before they die, barring exceptional cases like Markus where they get bodied by a powercreep faction by turn 20. Meanwhile the AI is often too braindead to do the same. RDLL objectively makes the game harder by making sure the AI gets some of the overpowered LLs they would otherwise miss, and they recruit and spam them like hell which is a pressure you will feel. The default settings of the mod make the game harder, and I would know considering I've played with it and without it.
>>583948539Why would you ever pick them when Melisandre exists?
I wish there was a mod to make corruption effects on the campaign terrain MORE visually prominent.
>>583949425>Trivially easyGreat, then you don't need the cheat and can just do it the normal way.

>>583929119Combination of : nurgle already having had a big dlc (with a way more memorable character) + being in the wrong faction + that faction already having two gazillion units + literally who characters that existed in the lore of whfb for less than a year (and nobody gives a fuck about them in AoS either) + overshadowed because he gets put next to fan favourite heavyweights like thanquol and nagash
>>583949965So you don't take the LLs into your faction that get defeated? Great, then you are honestly using it for what you're claiming you use it for, rather than cheating with it and then using the supposed increase in difficulty to justify your cheating. Of course, if you do still use it to take defeated LLs into your own faction, you are cheating and the rest of the stuff you posted is just cope and rationalization.
>>583950572hashut demands mandatory castration
>>583950827I usually turn off them being auto-recruited into my faction but even if I didn't it wouldn't be cheating because it is outweighed by every AI faction becoming harder by getting all their LLs with no way for you to stop it. This was explained to you by multiple people at this point but your pea brain seems incapable of grasping it.

>>583949272>They provide much better buffs and have better stat lines and skill choices than generic Lords.They dont. In many cases they are outright inferior. It's overall a cosmetic thingVanilla shitters are retarded easy mode players
>>583951092>OutweighedI don't care. I understand exactly what you are saying, I simply don't accept that it is a reasonable justification for cheating LLs into your faction that you would otherwise not have. If ALL you are using it for is to give the AI leveled LLs to fight you with in other factions, fine, but if you are using it to take defeated LLs into your faction, you are cheating. You are bypassing the games normal, standard difficulty and mode of play and giving yourself access to something you shouldn't have. Why is it so hard to accept that it is a cheat? It factually is. It's a single player game, so fine, do what you want, but you ARE cheating. You're the ones who seem to have trouble accepting this simple fact.
Chaos Dwarfs? None of those in TW40k. Now, if it had been TWAOS, things would be different.
Are any of the other Elector Counts cool? Not counting The Moot
>>583951356But the mod isn't cheating. Because it makes the game harder. Which was your standard for criticizing mods as cheats in your very first post.
>"We heard your complaints that Nagash is the weakest faction in the game and relies entirely on sacking, so we are giving you a meaningless upkeep buff for a one man doomstack and leaving you with 4 shit armies up until turn 100">"We also heard your complaints that Vlad and Nefarata are annoying to confederate, so we've decided to make Mannfred and Arkhan more annoying to confederate as well and force you to essentially eliminate Vlad anyway"I mean there's no way this is the same company that made Warhammer 2 right

>>583951658I remember that mod for TWW2, using it to make doomstacks based around stacking OP traits on heroes.I got rid of it after a while because it made it far too easy to cheese.
>>583951491>But the mod isn't cheatinglollmaoYes, it is. I spelled it out for you and you are still denying basic reality. Look man, if you feel bad about using cheats, why are you using them? If you have to rationalize and cope and come up with all these reasons that "no it isn't really cheating see because it does these other things that make it okay to cheat", why even cheat to begin with? Either embrace your cheatsfaggotry and enjoy the game the way you want, or play legit, but stop with your inane justifications for using your cheats, which is what they are, cheats. All you had to do to win this argument was say "Yeah I actually don't take defeated LLs into my own faction, I just use it to give the AI stronger lords" and I would've agreed you are not cheating. But you ARE cheating since you are taking stuff you shouldn't have through the cheat, then saying it's okay you're cheating because xyz. Which is just pathetic faggotry. I'm done with you, continue screaming into the void and trying to justify yourself in your own mind if you want.

>>583952342Well Kairos is one of the only legitimate hard campaigns left in the game and Changeling is so unfun he is essentially unplayable I don't see how their generic lords are that much better than any other chaos race
>>583952629changeling is fun in multiplayer with noob friends.... i had fun boosting my friends only province at turn 50
>>583952629>Kairos is one of the only legitimate hard campaigns left in the gameYeah no. Played him just before 9.0 hit and it was way easier than I remembered. All you have to do is beeline force peace in research and it's over.

>27k income with 24 full provinces and 68 settlementsI mean there's no way there's real people saying this faction is anything comparable to the last 5 years of DLC and updates, he doesnt even get comparable sacking buffs to half the chaos factions in the game
>>583953293too. easy.
Honestly at this point it's hard to find ANY difficult campaign in this game, they're all power crept to hell. What's even left that's actually, legitimately difficult, Khalida? And nothing else? I genuinely can't think of a truly hard LL to play in this game outside of her.
>>583932886Millenium used to be straight up cheating, with semi-realistic damage values for all those WW1 era weapons. Utterly ridiculous.
>>583953398Bordelouxioughxxiousxx

>play skaven>Stalk ambush 60% (15 off of 75%) failed>disengage and try again>every attempt failedwot. i swear khazrak is the only one I can be very consistent with this shit
>>583956601How do people even play karl campaigns nowadays? Hes surrounded by LLs, is his campaign just turns and turns of walking through allied terrain?
>>583957875Same as always you deal with Vlad and the Northwest immediately then take your time confeding all the slop around you before you have to worry about the North
>>583957973Vlad is miles away from me unless elspeth shits the bed completelyWhat I mean is, his campaign is literally just allying elspeth then crossing the entire country to find vlad?
>>583957875Usually one of the friendly factions around you will fail in fighting the enemy ones and then you go for that one. It's a campaign about plugging holes. If you somehow don't get this to happen in any case... well, tough luck. But at least Karl does have immunity to trespassing so you can do the walking through allied terrain thing in that case and go help one of those friendly factions.
>play taurox >confed morghur lvl 13 + herdstone intact>confed malagharlvl 12 + herdstone intact>confed khazraklvl 2 herdstone destroyedwhat a dissapointment he is...
>>583957875More or less, yeah. Ironically the most fighting you get to do is by cutting south into Bretonnia early and taking out Kemmler and Grom. Vlad doesn't even get rolling half the time and Festus does nothing in 90% of games. Drycha usually wrecks face but she doesn't really become a threat to Franz at any point since she stops expanding to his area or just gets rekt by Elspeth who is often one of the strongest factions in the game. It's even more of a joke now with Toddy being around, who also does really well. Karl is one of the easiest campaigns in the game by far now, as a result. You only fight wars you want to fight.
>>583957836Bhashiva can do it consistently
>>583957836just give any vamp lord stalk stance, retardo
>>583958218I would ambush her Bashussy if ya smell me
>>583957875You still have Kemmler and Khazrak (although now Boris sometimes takes him out) to slapfight with and Vlad pretty much always kills Stirland so you will be sharing a border with him.
>>583957875Kill Kemmers and take out Marienberg for Outriders early since Boris defends the northen bits so you don't instantly raped nowadays
any bashiva mods that make her cute but not human?
I find bhashiva very fun, there is something wildly entertaining about ramming buffed up tigers into the enemy.A shame that her campaign can only go one way
>>583958836>A shame that her campaign can only go one waywdym? You can beeline for Nagash or conquer the Chaos wastes after dealing with chorfs

>>583958985>take out ogres>either ghorst or grimgor declares on you, some times bothIt will always happen 100% of the timeThen depending on how long it takes to clear up and how many bystanders declare war on you in the meantime, its already end times.
>>583953629Karl
>>583935101Download RPFM and make a mod that reduces it's damage to 10%It's easy
>>583959180Should have went for Grimgor first because VC only have -10 aversion with Cathay and Ogres have neutral aversion with Cathay. If you want VC and Ogres to be friends you can very much do it
>>583959412Fair enough, but since chaos wastes is a waste of time due to hostile environment and large ass provinces, it will still end up in the badlands most of the time

>>583959587You should ally Ghorst a friend as Bhashiva because their corpse carts etc. can further boost tigermen infantry to ungodly levels

>>583960132Warp lightning almost convinces me to auto-resolve all skaven fights
I thought Skaven stalking stance was meant to make be invisible? A bretonnian somehow found out where my skaven lord was
>>583960363No, that's ambush stance. Stalking stance is just their "normal" stance, but it also adds a chance you automatically trigger an ambush when attacking armies outside settlements.
