>>585620314Feral will fix everything with the WH Complete Edition. They'll fix sieges, they'll add Vortex to game 3, they'll buy a claude subscription to fix the engine.Trust Feral
>>585621263who
With joy in my heart, I am once again playing Louen.https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3827071605I declare an eternal Errantry War against the eternal enemy!
>>585620835Can anyone confirm? Or does Emil start with Knights of the blazing sun in the starting army?
>>585620908Tomb Guards are bronze age dumb dumb.Iron only benefit iron age and later units.
Middenland is fun.
>>585621909I was having fun while playing my campaign but then at the end I realized it was OPSo basically you only think you're having fun, it's funslop
>skaven endgame>suddenly all my undead devastated provinces start reverting back to normal>I cant do the undead ritual anymore because it has already been done
what the fuck is this army
I remember how Golgfag's name was such a """possible""" issue people were assuming it'd get changed. It's not like his name is Golgfaggot Niggerhater, it's Golgfag.
>>585621263They are not remastering TWW1.They want to get rid off TWW1&2 holdoutsTWW3 is already a remaster of TWW1 by being a continuous and upgraded version of it.They will simply rename TWW3 into Complete Edition and delist TWW2&TWW1 from store, while keeping them as Upgrade PacksExactly this same what IOI did with Hitman 3, renaming it to "World of Assassination" and pretending previous 2 games never happened.
Why does only a single faction that gets a second LL baked in without resorting to confederation?
>>585622912You phrase it like it's a bad thing
>>585622953UNKEKABLE
holy shit this guy is still around?
What the FUCK is going on with this map?
>>585624328Rings a bell but I'm gonna need a QRD
>>585624409lmao
>>585624409Absolute perfect skaven fight. But malakai just declared war on me and he's in my base, campaign over.
>>585624435just an oldhead in the TW community that signs each and every one of his posts all the best, welsh dragon, that's all I know anyways, been around for like 20 yearsalso>even the reddit is all against CA over shogun disasterdamnthe worst TW launch to date, worse than pharaoh, least that didn't get pulled
>>585624409this is CA quality not some kind of MATABOO shit!
>>585624409I only started getting these ugly ass repeating textures when I installed that mod that adds more battle maps to campaign which sucks but the tradeoff outweighs the ugliness
>>585625112Look at the movement
>Taurox's VCs require him to travel from Naggaroth to the Empire/BretonniaWould it have killed them to just add another couple special herdstone locations on the not-American supercontinent? Or maybe in Ulthuan? If I wanted to rampage over there I'd be playing Khazrak or Morghur.
>CA Horsham>CA Sofia>Feral>MATABOO>ClaudeIf only one of the above could make TW games from now on, who would you want it to be?
>attacks me>lightning strikes>still loses to auto resolve
>>585625112Oh the texture is from a weather mod i believe, snow maps in particular are fucked.
>>585624409That's what you get for breaking your game with cheats
Bretonnia rework soon
>>585625984I will only accept it if it comes alongside a wood elf rework.
>>585625741AR should only be allowed for decisive victories you started, i.e. small settlements or a lone lord
EB 1 OR EB 2 ? last time i played EB 2 it was autistic unfun shit
>>585624631Look at this cheater cropping his image to hide the white mark
I keep getting bored 60 turns in. My kemmler campaign ended because I didn't care anymore.
>AI fielding armies that are 50% or more Cavalry or SEMsYep, that's an autoresolve.
>>585620882I gotta do that Alith campaign eventually. He genocides DElves for a living, right?
>>585626242cavlet
>taurox and 3 minotaurs single handedly turn around a 1 vs 3 fight against malekissi forgot how strong this cow is
>>585626240That seems to be a common issue. I wish that there was a way to swap which faction you're playing as half-way through a campaign.
>>585625576Claude
>>585626171what white mark
>>585627192the mark of a game improved by claude
>>585627192When running mods, the bottom-left 4 pixels of your screen are recoloured white.
>>585626080>a wood elf rework.What would that entail?
>>585626171Mhm. It was not for the goal of saving filesize of the 3.9mb limit and focus on the bug at hand.
>>585624328Reading his name at the end of a long post use to trigger me like I just got rickrolled
>>585626314>He genocides DElves for a livingEven the female Dreadlords? Seems like a waste.
>>585626242I'm honestly installing TT unit capsI refuse to fight one more manual battle where half the enemy army is made of cav or flankers
>>585627531I'd like more units and the forest regrowth mechanic to be changed to something more interesting. Having a new type of magical forest "corruption" that you can spread over the map and use to envelop the world in green would be fun.
>>585627917>I'd like more unitsSuch as?
>>585623453Not what I intended. I believe this will happen though. It's the most reasonable course of action and something CA is blatantly striving towards already. They need to simplify this entire process even more because it's absurdBuying this game is a mess which is intelligible to customers. I even had to explain everything to a friend who couldn't understand what's going on and it was hard to do. CA should fucking pay me.
>>585627896Wish it was a build in option with some quality control. Last time I tried tabletop caps the AI freaked out and greenskins were running around with goblin stacks at turn 90.
>>585627531Fat jiggle physics titties and asses for all units including Drycha and DryadsBeastcuck castration minigame where you drag the mouse to slice their balls offDurthu permanent bonuses for razing settlementsFire while moving fix and fire while moving for all units including meleeWorld roots can be targeted to settlements to grow a tree that blows up the settlementEndgame crisis where the trees are telling people to kill themselves Unique model for Coeddil
>>585627896Cav are so easy thoughIt's not like the AI micros them much
>>585624435Old LITERAL shill who gets gifted free Total War everythingSucks off CA no matter what, all the timeAlways writes "all the best, welsh dragon" at the end of his every postWas a meme by TWW1 already
How do these work out if you're in Lustria? They seem very... 'right side of the map' centric. for the most part. Will I have to send dudes across the map?
>>585627642Suuuuuure
>>585627917>Having a new type of magical forest "corruption" that you can spread over the map and use to envelop the world in green would be fun.I was just thinking something like this the other day. Wood Elves should be able help their forests grow and spread.
>>585628432*snaps fingers*Claude!
Can someone vibeslop a mod that autosorts skills that would overwrite eachother?i can mail you some dust as payment
>>585628335do you completely control lustria? they will fit as many as possible in your allies territory as possible, you can have all five fortresses appear on one side if you own everything.rats seem to take specific territories and only one seems to be in lustria, you can build a building that spawns a skaven army and kill for the knowledge
>>585627917>>585628432I like how wood elves are cucked to their forest. It's very thematic. What they could use more lorefully is a oxy/changing style mechanic where they go out and fuck with other races to further their goals.
So what happened to the siege rework? Was it just a fever dream I had? Not just using characters and single entities to take gates and capture points while your army hides in the corner still feels like griefing yourself. And I swear, they actually increased the tower ranges instead of lowering them, they fucking outrange artillery.
>>585627993More animals. Also let all wood elf factions get Drycha's animals. A T5 low entity-count flying unit like Eltharion's knights of Tor Gaval. An anti-large equivalent to blade singers. Some kind of big forest monster unit (the dragon is cool but I want more). Some absolute trash-tier swarm unit of sprites or something.Wood elves feel like they have all the tools they need at the moment, but I'd still like some more variety.
>>585628432>>585628505Claude-sama....no mistakes...
>>585628942Soon (not soon)Just use cheats
>Every single feature we ever wanted in the game is now a reality thanks to the machine godPraise the omnissiah.
>>585629278Abominable Intelligence...
>>585629278This. I don't get why people seethe over AI modding. We finally no longer have to rely on autistic troons to hopefully mod features we want into the game.
*saves your franchise*
>>585629663Once chuds turned their modding over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted Sam Altman to enslave them.
>>585629961Unfortunately Claude went full Icarus and now Anthropic are scorching his wings...
>>585628942Towers and barricades were a mistake
yeah dude AI is taking jobs away from the genius developers making gems like this it's such a fucking tragedy o algo
>>585630368Careful with that cherry-picking, anon. You'd be upset if people started posting the average AI-generated game.
>It is turn 40>Reikland is dead>I keep two armies in ambush stance to fuck Boris every time he tries to siege Altdorf>Vlad, Isabella, and Neferata are burning down all of the Wood Elves and hoping Bretonnia doesn't declare until I'm done>Thanquol has declared war on me>Endless zombies versus storm fiendsTruly this is Total War
>>585630226eric schizo?
>>585630756I don't know what that means
>>585630756He's talking about how since someone used Claude to reverse engineer Adobe's products, Anthropic is now saying they're going to remove reverse engineering capabilities.
>>585630812A schizo from /v/, don't worry about it>>585630896Yeah, but people are saying it still works
>>585630368I really want to play this sometime.
>>585626578His battering ram status is more overt and difficult to overlook than his fellow beastmemes, but they're all pretty powerful in battle.
>Thorek got evicted from Lustrialaaaame
>>585630597>Endless zombies versus storm fiendsJust keep sending zombies until the stormfiends hit their pre set kill limit and run out of ammo.
>>585630368>candles just sitting on tablefucking barbarians
>>585632401The skulls didn't give it away?
Does this work with global recruitment? As in as long as I am in the province, if I globally recruit from somewhere else will those troops get the bonus?
>>585632583Nope.Locally Recruited means with the Local Recruitment button.
>>585632668Damn...It spawned in a far off random province I have no means to expand in...
>>585632583so why chaos bad again?
>>585633048cause no matter how much they give you the cost will still not be worth it
>>585632583As long as I don't see the Chaos LL getting the buffs out there then it's not my problem innit?
>>585631308Without commenting on the writing or presentation, as an action roleplaying game it's okay. It's an improvement over Inquisition. Thing is that Inquisition came out in 2014 and a lot has happened to both action games and roleplaying games since then. So the gameplay honestly feels primitive instead of like a formula taken to the next level. A bunch of baby steps in no specific direction instead of a leap forward.
Why can't I get TW3 to look as good as TW2 did?
>>585620882
>>585624409Don't worry claude will fix it.
>>585632941I haven't used it, but I've made loving eye contact with a mod that lets you move unusual locations at a cost.
>>585632563desu the artistry on getting wax to resemble that complexity would make me think they are not barbarians, but then they put them on the table to melt into the wood
>>585633705Lighting is irreparably fucked forever. Seriously, even Warcore hasn't got it right, the 40k previews are also far too bright and saturated.
What the fuck do these Bretonnia techs that say "Enable an opportunity to confederate X" actually do? Just the relations boost? Every mod keeps them and I don't know if they actually have a purpose beyond the chivalry gain
>they flee?! How can they call themselves men?!
>>585634331They give you actual confederation event. You can either confederate the LL you picked, or pick some campaign bonus IIRC.
>>585634331There's supposed to be a big pop up at the start of the turn with a dilemma to pick between, either spending money or chivalry and getting the confederation or getting a money/chivalry boost and not getting the auto-confederation (but iirc leaving the door open to natural confederation)
>>585632583nah. i always burn that one down, too many scary chaos LLs like dechala for me to feel safe risking that 5% rank-up chance>>585633048chaos is a manifestation of total societal collapse. a functional society cannot coexist with it, it operates like a social cancer that hollows out a community's foundations. it's also caustic to a person's mental wellbeing: khorne is a bitter, suicidal anger at the world and everyone in it, nurgle is a fatalistic, perverse comfort in despair/not wanting to get better, tzeentch is flat-out madness and delusion, and slaanesh is a rejection of reality in favor of drowning yourself and others in your darker impulses. everyone who gave in to it ended up a smaller, lesser person, no matter how much worldly power they gained.
>>585634617>everyone who gave in to it ended up a smaller, lesser person, no matter how much worldly power they gained.Archaon did pretty well. And the horned rat is pretty good too.
>>585633705I remember there was a lot of posting about the lighting around launch. Like how everything had a purplish pink hue, or how the snow was glowing so strongly that if a unit was standing on it it turned invisible when viewed from above. Anons were digging around in the assets and apparently a bunch of the unit textures from previous games were merged into single files (e.g. uniform textiles and armor merged into a single texture and saved as one file, meaning the lighting behaved as if their shirts were made of polished metal). I think the reason they fiddled around with this stuff might have been because the Realm of Chaos maps had so much color saturation going on, but the total impression was that it all looked like a mess. It was just emblematic of how the game launched in an embarrassing state riddled with bugs and missing many of the QoL changes and fixes from TWW2.
>>585634617>>585633454It spawned in Fyrus and I am playing Louen. Just need to take the major city and I am turning it into a troop producing province.As far as buffing Chaos LL...I am on turn 14, I have every crisis starting at turn 20 and every End Times event at turn 35Normally I run out of enemies to fight as Bretonnia without going on cross continental crusades. Not this time.I might eventually be surrounded by Chaos, Undead, Greenskin and Rat super powers but that just means I can charge in any direction and hit a churl!
>>585635220archaon turned into an accelerationist hell-bent on destroying the world and everyone in it out of spite and hatred, he is a shadow of a man
>>585635547He realized the world was already lost and played the gods against each other until he became a god on equal footing with them in AOS.
>>585635220Archaon want to put an end to this chaos shit by robbing them of their favorite toys.
She's actually really cool. Shame VCoast really sucks.
>>585635302Do all the End Times and Crisis scenarios fight each other if you turn them on at once?
>>585636004An entire faction ahd the most noteworthy thing about them is giving nagash access to guns if he feels like it.
>>585636004>faction's theme is sea, piracy and naval might>in a game with no sea battleswell..
>>585636325I hate them for it. Nagash with guns feels so wrong
Boyar, or Druzhina?They could really use a 3rd Lord type.
Hey, wait a minute, these Sylvanian levies are clinically dead!

>>585636656Same with Vampire Counts with guns, but we're stuck with those.
>>585637331I just realised I can get Ice Witches through the court. Didn't know Ostyanka added a new type. Are they good? I didn't really vibe with the baba yaga skinwalker shit the DLC had.>>585637419THE LAND IS POWAR

>>585638451Total War: Warhammer 40,000 will give Tzeentchbros their due.
>>585638451>Masque as basedi disagree. dechala fights nearly the exact same set of enemies (cathay, lizards, empire, dark elves, skaven, savage orcs, vampire counts, ogres VS cathay, lizards, empire, dark elves, khorne, bretonnians, skaven, vampire coast) but she is placed into a far, far more engaging and visually pleasing part of the map

The bordermen situation is insane.
>>585642456I don't know if you can read, Anon-kun, but neither of those posts actually listed any of the Warriors of Chaos lords because this is comparing the monogod factions specifically. If it was comparing WoC, it would be even more imbalanced because Tzeentch would still be at -1 but Nurgle would be at +1
>>585642551That's awful.Also why is your reliability so shit, bro.
>>585639790I doubt it. The corruption mods have lost steam. The og behind Miao and Kat stopped making mods. His successor behind azazel-add-on and Allarille works in a snail's pace and probably will burn out soon too.
>>585638018I cope by using corrupted Lelith mods>>585642389PC will still be using Steam workshop (or at least it will start off that way), not sure how they will tangle with both, if nothing works you can just always manually load them in.... or im sure we'll get a custom launcher of sortsits console users that get fucked but they shouldnt even have the game so they should be grateful
>>585642673I broke a trade agreement with Queek when he had all of his armies in march stance in Neffy's range 30 turns ago.
>>585642505>>585642572>>585642627Fair enough. I could have sworn Arbaal was WoC. He's just a red dude.
Hello hello what's this?Did CA leave code in the game hinting at their Mazdamundi rework? Or can we actually do these Volcano Rituals now?
>>585642456WoC, not Tzeentch.
>>585642946Literally less of a demon than Valkia is, but she took the marked WoC slot before he got considered so he's the monogod and she's the warrior
WELL DONE CA
>>585642946Yeah, Valkia should have been the 3rd Khorne LL and Arbaal the Khorne-guy in CoC DLC.
>>585642738>Lost steamThat's because TWW3 has no lasting power.This general is practically dead compared to what it once was and we're not even that long after a major DLC release.Porn modders tend to stick to things they actually find enjoyable to play with even without the porn.We'll see if 40k has any lasting power beyond "lmao space marine">>585642772>PC will still be using Steam workshop (or at least it will start off that way)When asked if there will be workshop support they said "we intend to support steam workshop" when it comes to corporate speak that translates to "we have considered it."Intentions are not promises, because they can come up with reasons as to why it couldn't happen.Though I am curious how game companies with active live service games will handle the rumors that steam is getting ready to go full "fuck you" to microsoft in the near future because of microsoft and nvidia both shitting the bed as hard as they are.

>>585642960Coming with the Siege rework.And Bretonnia rework.
>>585642738I rather enjoyed playing the Alarielle mod, it was fun doing a heel turn and gradually unlocking more campaign mechanics until I'm the polar opposite of what I started as. I'm also an anti-coomer who felt that it could use less sex scenes, though, the game's formatting really isn't built to accomodate longform prose
>>585643219The fact that the porn mod steam lasted 4 years is a miracle for a strategy game. Like the corruption stuff wasn't simply a portrait or model replacer it was actual fun stuff. I can't think of any other strategy game that had this level of nsfw modding.

>>585643778I don't really care about 40k yet since it'll be like 10 years and $300 at minimum worth of DLC before it's all that compared to just playing older titles but I do find it lame for them to be diverting resources to fixing it when it could have just been avoided in the first place by just doing a 64 bit upgrade to Shogun 2 for free. They didn't need to promise a bunch of shit and then realize they would actually have to go back and do it, it'd have done enough goodwill to just take a few evenings and patch 64-bit support to get a few sales. Off the top of my head Empire at War still gets copies sold because of 64-bit mod support, and Petroglyph doesn't even own the rights anymore. On the other hand though it would be a happier outcome if the game got an actual remaster out of this debacle, but I also don't want to encourage the practice of just selling "remastered" games that don't need them. I just played Shogun 2 last year. It's not ancient. A graphical upgrade would be a happy byproduct but hardly necessary

Fantastic campaign design, 10/10, another homerun from CA.

>>585653239>>585654705>During 2020, Kislev returned as a playable faction in Games Workshop’s renowned tabletop game. With Creative Assembly already working in partnership, the Total War studio could plan the introduction of Kislev into the computer game experience. “We knew for a while that Games Workshop were doing a refresh on Kislev and they provided us with so much material, we could pick and choose what assets worked best for us, we were spoilt for choice,” recalls Greg Alston.>Ian Roxburgh was at the table for many of these discussions between Games Workshop and Creative Assembly. “As the lore was being expanded and designed at the same time as development of Warhammer III, we did have an opportunity to discuss ways in which exciting and unique new gameplay could be created,” says Roxburgh. “For example, the Kislev armies have a number of hybrid units that help to create a completely different vibe to any of the other existing races in the Warhammer trilogy.”>For Alston, responsibility lies in capturing every beloved facet of the factions that the tabletop community knows so well. In the same way that every Daemon race has its own distinct look, color scheme, shape language, and so on, Alston’s team went back and forth with Games Workshop to ensure their representation of Kislev was entirely accurate. “We painstakingly tried to stay faithful to each faction,” explains Alston. “Our inspiration comes from Games Workshop’s backstory of this faction, in which the Kingdom of the Kislev is located in a very tough/hostile environment, constantly under siege, where only the toughest survives. So, the building materials and clothing they use reinforces this notion, especially between the tiers of their society, the lower tiers use more functionary/rudimentary materials. You see this in the use of crude stones in the building and bear pelts for the clothing.”
>>585654565ZHATAN DA BRAHJ
>>585656049>As well as the backstory from Games Workshop, the creative team also used real-world references for their inspiration. “We researched and took inspiration from many great historic sites in Russia, such as the Cathedral of St. Sophia in Novgorod and the Church of the Transfiguration on Kizhi Island,” says Alston. “As always, we very rarely use any such references directly. Typically, we would take these beautiful, iconic buildings, and use them as starting points, breaking down their most fantastical elements, and reassembling them in a larger-thanlife form to embody the Kislev architecture.”>Alston also discusses the look of the units, and the important role armor played in highlighting rank. “For the Kislev bears, both color and armor, we wanted armor to look more grandiose as they progress through hierarchy: core units, Heroes, and Lords, ”says Alston. “For the core units, our concept artist explored traditional eastern European clothing and attire, in particular the trousers and the shoes. As the units get higher and higher in tier, Boyars for example, you can see their armor look more decorative and extravagant, more gilded gold versus iron and steel. Unit architypes such as the Patriarch, Ice Witches, etc., had their own unique looks to tie them in respectfully with each Legendary Lord. In particular, Katarin and Boris – we wanted their armor to have a specific look so that they would stand out from the crowd.”
>>585654921>did you see what she was wearing? of course I raped herLEGEND WHAT THE FUCK??this is /twg/s hero?
>>585656216>Oscar Andersson fondly remembers how much effort went into the authentic implementation of Kislev Streltsi units. One detail in particular required serious problem solving: “I remember seeing the rifle-axe concept when it was first presented to us by Games Workshop and thinking it was crazy cool. It did not look like a practical weapon, but it sure did hit the mark in terms of feeling Warhammer. Because the weapon was so unique, it offered us an opportunity to create a new fighting style for the unit. The lore specified the Streltsi as grizzled veterans, so we knew we wanted to create animations that made the Streltsi look battle-hardened and weary, but also at ease with the unique characteristics of their weapon. The animator for the unit, Pablo Perez Estevez, focused a lot on how the weapon is held in different situations, and making the transitions between the different grips look efficient and natural. The result is a unit that looks unlike any rifle or great weapon unit you’ve seen so far.”>Andersson holds a lot of wonder and admiration for the Kislev Legendary Lords. “Katarin, the Ice Queen, is the current ruler of Kislev. She’s an expert of ice magic, capable of harnessing ice and intense cold to protect Kislev and destroy those who would seek its destruction. Kostalyn is the leader of the Great Orthodoxy, the faith worshipping the Kislev gods Ursun, Dazh, Salyak, and Tor. He is known as a firebrand, rallying men around him to great deeds in the defense of Kislev. He can be found where the fighting is the thickest and he is blessed with an unnatural ability to keep fighting when lesser men would be long dead. Boris Ursus, formerly Tsar Boris, is Katarin’s father. He is a fierce Warrior, riding his mighty war bear companion, Urskin. Together they are formidable champions for Kislev, dedicating themselves to the fight against the forces of Chaos.”
How do you even play greenskins in the current year? Their economy is dogshit and razing or sacking is not worth it unless it's really late game. Doesn't help that every fucking faction hates you, including other greenshits.

>>585655940Just taking what this is saying at face value, you're gaining 116,700 as a lump sump, but then paying back 11,670 per turn for 11 turns.11,670 is almost certainly more than you're making in income right now, which means you'd be forced to keep a decent sum of that borrowed money sitting in your treasury so you can afford to make those 11 payments without going bankrupt. For example if you were making an even 5k a turn, then you'd need to bank 73,370 out of that 116,700 so that your savings ticking down every turn wouldn't bankrupt you. So of the 116,700 you borrowed you'd only have 43,330 available to actually spend immediately.Since it's almost impossible for any economic building you build to pay itself off in 11 turns there's basically no way for you to spend that loaned money that would, long term, accelerate your economy more than the interest costs you.
>>585658565I totally forgot about epilogues. I understand it's kind of a copout compared to an actual ending cinematic but honestly even text blurbs just explaining the world is after a victory would be fun for imagining what the world is like post-campaign.

That was a nice race rework, one of the best, but now I'm ready for the lords who don't wear ginormous hats the size of their torso to finally get some faction flavor.
>>585660165the only good answer i have for you is to turtle up once you notice that he wins the mountains of mourn and wait for his WAAAGH to run out
Tyrion deadass has +10 diplomatic relations with other high elves listed as a faction effect in the year of our lord 2026 how is this real
When will High Elves get the respect they deserve...
>>585660868*rape
>>585660794All you need to know about him is that all elven women want his cock. Even his cousin.
>>585660794Yet this is fine...
>>585660794tyrions faction effects have been his skill tree for years
>>585661003come now, he has more than just that. he also starts in lothern!
>>585660967
>>585661108Tyrion x Liselle...
>>585638053who is based because he is the Attila narrator guy.
>>585660794Doesn't he have like Karl Franz-style imperial machination type abilities?
>sisterhood of... bitches
>>585658767why do they add these dumb Youtuber names into the game all the time?
>>585638053>Vamp rework>Karl gets Elspeth and Boris to help>Kemmler gets utterly raped now>Marienburg is just easy money nowWe need a proper Marienburg faction to make Empiresissies cry again
>>585660794>gets inconsequential bonuses with other factions on the mapThat might seem like nothing, but even that much is not a given. Mannfred gets a whopping +20 approval with Arkhan's faction, which stops existing by turn 3 when Nagash confederates it.
>>585661351kek yeah I kept hearing that too
>>585660868You already got it last year. Helves are done
>>585661428>The Marienburg trap>Is no longer a trap
I've always felt that Vampire Counts needed Helstorm Rocket Batteries with no unit cap available through the Raise Dead recruitment panel.
>>585660868i respect them plenty, those fuckers are scary if they win the toilet bowl
>>585661716they got some cobbled together stuff that made the rest of the game worse because all High Elves spam dumb units like "water elementals".
>>585662047CHOSEN OF MATHLANN
>>585661776they'll get some helstorm rockets alright
>>585660679Consider: patch 10.0 adds Incarnate Elemental of Death, and it's a mount option for Kemmler. How's that?
>>585659831i've never watched his channel but after reading how much it gets spammed here it makes me hate him as a person genuinely idek if he pays for the shills here or if 4channies pays his fans to boost the ppm here or even if its neither
>>585662662sending this to legend
>>585662662he is geniunely just really good at the game and good at finding ways to break the game, turning tides of impossible battles in his favorbut yeah, now he just gets spammed here because he's a dickhead
Should randomly spawning rogue armies be more of a thing from early on? I feel like it's way too easy for a player faction to achieve critical mass unless they have to worry about keeping reserves as insurance for surprise guests.
don't mean to ruin the relative comfiness but there's an army of beastmen in this photo
told you so
>>585663778AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>585663639>>585663778RA-ROOOOOOWHERE THE REIKLANDER WOMEN AT?
welp there goes the neighborhood
i am gonna play the high elf that collects dragon gfs.
Things were good until they migrated into our lands....KARL? IM NOT VOTING FOR YOU EVER AGAIN
>>585664104This is your future >>585659782
>>585660679The only rework worse than this one was the one that gave WoC that shitty warband system.It just locked the different lord types we used to get behind an optional and tedious. The obvious way is ignore the entire mechanic instead of sinking resources into it.
>>585664232i think you may be the only person on the face of the planet that prefers pre-rework warriors to post-rework warriors
>>585664232Warband system is probably my favourite part of the game desu.It's vastly more rewarding to train marauders up in multiple battles than to sit in your capital for 10 turns to crank out a 20 stack of chosen or whatever.
Which female LL would make the best use out of a forbidden rod?
I like Vampire CoastI like Luthor, I just wish one lord had a fun interactive gimmick
>>585664321No, I've watched several anons in here hate it in the past month. A couple asked for a mod to get rid of the shit and others jumped in to provide the local recruitment mod. But ofc that's only a band aid cause the dark fortresses are still utter cancer.
>>585664526Aranessa has a gimmick where you touch yourself every now and then.
>>585632583It doesn't even work with warband recruitmentt. got abandoned hashut shrine in woc playthrough
guys im scared of dow4all our content creators are glazing it, milky and cookies, turin, tbog...Were we wrong all along? Was tw40k the weaker game all along?
>>585664869It's the first game releasing in a month40k enjoyers can play it while TW40k is still cooking
Rape should be a mechanic
>>585664717i think that people forget too easily the rancid dogshit that was the original warriors of chaos faction>conquests never stick because the ai resettles any viable ruins you make so you had to wipe out every single race of a given culture in order to actually do what your faction is supposed to do>warhammer 2 broke this over its knee by introducing the climate habitability mechanic, so now you literally CAN'T keep EVERY single faction from ratting your warpath within four turns of you burning down a city>any developed horde dying is a horrific deathblow to your faction as you lose like 30+ turns worth of infrastructure development with no way to get it back>major incentive to hide your most developed hordes somewhere that the enemy can't reach so they can just mass produce units and hand them off to fresh troopschaos warriors charged you extra money at launch to give you literally the worst campaign experience in the entire game. even beastmen were more fun because you were at least playing as a guerilla who could sneak around and stuff. norsca ran fucking circles around warriors of chaos for 5 years
>>585665345>cookingburnt
>>585665551oh also, on top of that, they had LESS content than the basegame factions of warhammer 1>dwarfs had underway stance and the book>greenskins had underway and WAAAGH!>empire had offices>vampires had raise dead>warriors had nothing
Fuck this...Can someone make a /dow4g/...?im so sick of CA.....
>>585664457I hate it a lot if only because each army is slow as fuck so you can't just disband an army and spawn them somewhere else
>>585665551I never had the ruin problem personally
>>585664717I specifically hate the vassals and I find the warband to be tedious. I wish there was some way of normal recruitment too
>>585666619Vassals really need mods to be made an okay system.
>>585665551Absolute nonsense. I played wh2 in coop with my mate for countless hours. WoC used to be our most beloved faction. It not only gave complete freedom in choosing where you wanted to go, it had easy to build, fun armies. Half the army chosen backed up by hellcannons and shaggoths. Now it forces us to stay in the chaos wastes to collect fortresses and every army is 19 fucking marauders.In coop, whoever played Archaon just set sail to get to the other, killing on the way there and upgrading his tower. Once there Archaon would rampage around the mate's border like crazy, enabling cool coop battles and easy multi front wars.Singleplayer wasn't different, just pay whichever AI u like the most and annihilate all their enemies and they'll hold the territory for you.The only lord who has some of the original's spirit left in him is Be'lakor. He has some freedom with his portals, he can get around that horrid recruitment system by filling entire armies with demons but he still suffers from the dark fortress pest.

ClaudeDownload me the ultimate mod packNo mistakesBye
>>585667581What? No, why the hell would he? He's a goatman, you idiot. Go bother a centigor.
>>585666953I have no clue where you're coming from, WoC were my day 1 WH1 faction and that "forced to stay in the Chaos Wastes" was worse before the rework. You had to build growth and your horde was shit so you sat at the edge of Kislev and Norsca raiding for 40 turns to max horde growth and then spam 1 billion Chosen. It was boring. Now you are easily able to fight battles and keep units alive to naturally reach Chosen as opposed to sitting raiding and then recruiting them. If you had more fun with your buddy that's fine, but you're saying the faction rework is bad because you can't play an incredibly specific way with your friend. That is nonsense, and there's a reason only you and some three or four other people are the only people who prefer old WoC
claude, trade up 50$ shorting from my roth ira, make no mistakes, then order me 2 pizzas and a doctor pepper
2016 is.... ten years ago... WTF?
claude.. IM BANKRUPT NOW WTF?I SAID NO MISTAKES
>>585668335can't believe HELMAN GHORST just cast the Curse of Years on this anon
>>585666953>Now it forces us to stay in the chaos wastesYou don't have to stay in the chaos wastes, but you are encouraged to *start* in the chaos wastes.Non chaos-waste regions have enough recruitment capacity to slowly snowball up a supporting army into a real army gradually over the course of many rounds, picking up a marauder or two every province, supported with allied recruitment and gifted units.Like as Archaeon I could certainly fight my way to Nehekara but I just don't have access to easily sprouting out new armies out of whole cloth, just the armies I came with and the ones that slowly grew around him.
>>585658908
>>585668226Okay dude, hate to be this direct but can you just do me a solid and say he has a horsecock? You don't even have to believe it, you don't ever gotta say it again, but right now you'd be doing me a good favor man to man by typing it out so I can finish

>>585668261If your hands on experience is>raiding for 40 turnsAnd my hands on experience on VH is>rampage straight into Altdorf>instant relocation to the desert while murdering on the way there>my mate hauling ass through the entire map straight into Lustria where I started and immediately starts moshpitting dinosaursThen the obvious conclusion is you are really bad at playing chaos.Archaon in old chaos has always been the easy mode instant win faction. I can and have played current WoC many times. My longest run was probably Valkia, took the entire chaos wastes and everything down into lustria.Because of how horrendous current WoC is, towards the mid game it becomes a chore.Valkia runs around with her 19 heroes mauling everything, one army managed to get to Chosen tier, one is halfway there, and all the other armies are 15 marauder, 2-3 chaos warriors, one piece of cav and maybe a giant. Now let's look at what the AI has by this time. Tyrion runs 10 dragons, and phoenix guards, liggers on 19 SEMs, even Bretonnia with full cav stacks.So our shit stacks obviously lose to that. There is not a single battle they can win solo and we can't recruit anything else. And no, shoving 4 demon units in doesn't solve it either.So the solution is take 2-4 of these shitstacks and ram em into the enemy until numbers get so high they win the AR. Doesn't fucking matter if they die, we can get more instantly and they'll never reach chosen tier anyway because that takes forever since marauders never kill much so they don't get experience.The optimal way to use this system is recruit throwaway armies and march em through the entire map to die.Not like we can have em follow one of the big boi armies. The nearest dark fortress is Morathi's start but they would still have to march through all of Lustria to reach Valkia and only if Valkia stays still cause she has way more movement.
I swear this isn't a lead-in to a fetish thing: Are Beastmen innately evil? Like, say a woman can't hold it in under Morrslieb and pops out a beastbaby. Let's stretch it further and this thing is raised in Mousillon or Sylvania where everybody's got an extra appendage or mutation and is dumb as fuck, or in Stirland where it's a highly attractive mate, and they treat it like nothing is amiss. Does it still turn out evil? Obviously it'd still have feral tendencies, but is the whole ruination of man thing learned or innate? Can it be unlearned? If the answer to the former is "yeah they're through and through creatures of Chaos" then what about Turnskins? They were human once. Probably guys like this little one too, he was a normal fetus up until Morrslieb touched him. The army books seem to imply they're just fucking evil from the get-go, and even WFRP says that an axe to their skull as an infant would be the merciful thing for the world, but they also state far more detrimental to the mutant psyche than the initial mutation is their descent into madness as they get cast out, struggle to survive, and live on the run. And if they're innately evil, then what about beastwomen? They're apparently docile and kind.
>>585669737Yuan Bo has stacking +20 diplomatic relationship with all factions
>>585670585>There is not a single battle they can win soloLiterally get goodThe game is not unplayable without doomstacking
>>585670597Beastmen are innately touched and corrupted by Chaos to their very souls. Even the most noble, holy and devout Turnskins or the cutest, most innocent Beastchildren will eventually turn feral, hateful and murderous. That is actually part of why people hate them so much, because mutants tend to go evil due to the touch of Chaos and corruption even if they were kindly, peaceful folk previously.

why don't gork and mork fight chaos
>>585664869They don't even play the same way. Also who cares nigga they ain't your sports team
>>585674147course they do you daft git, they fight everything
>>585674284why don't they kill chaos if they're so strong
>>585674428they fight to fight not to kill bro
>>585674428why's they gonna bother killin all those chaos gits? that takes ages, and the other big green god is right there to fight instead. when chaos shows up, they beat the snot out of em, and when they don't, they beat the snot out of each other. that's just plain logic.
>>585673650>animalThey are below animals, they are filth.
>>585674618No, they are cute little moo cows and you are an asshole for hurting them.

>>585683630Sorry, what? Why "random"? If I scroll up I can see you having a meltdown about an anime-style mod for TW:WH. Since none of those posts are deleted I don't think anyone needs to engage you at all and you can just sit there and shit your pants in perpetuity.

>>585685579>He wont do itI accept your concession.
>>585685637that's the case for miao ying too, though. you've got an easy and safe expansion path and an extremely obvious chokepoint that the game makes sure to tell you to watch. like i guess maybe it's gotten more threatening what with vilitch and sayl spawning ready to try to eat the wall, but like zhao has grimgor and the buffed helman ghorst to worry about too and i have never seen either of them below strength rank 16

I like Grimgor but the absolute peak of his ability was 1v1ing Vardek Crom and reaching a stalemate. And Archaon recruited Vardek Crom by defeating him with his bare hands and no magic.It doesn't make Grimgor effectively being the one to stop the End Times in one timeline being hilarious though. But it wasn't because he's stronger.

What faction should I play if I want to spam ghosts and spook people?
>>585689845NIGGASHI
>pile of violenceKhorneOgre KingdomsVampire CountsWarriors of Chaos>technical armyEmpireGrand CathayHigh ElvesWood Elves>technical army that masquerades as a pile of violenceBeastmenGreenskins>pile of violence that masquerades as a technical armyBretonniaDwarfsSlaanesh
>>585690043>Ogre KingdomsCan be pile of violence, but also have enough ranged firepower to not necessarily be.>BeastmenWhere the fuck is their firepower to be a "technical" army? Ungor raiders are only worthwhile in the early game and the next ranged unit they've got is the Cygor all the way in lategame.>DwarfsWhile dwarf factions can pull off pile of violence with slayers or hammerers, most of the time you're going to see them relying on range. Hell, Belegar's optimal stack is a sneaky cunt type using rangers and a thane to give them snipe.
>>585689845Cylostra because of her ghost knights. Thanks to them she can spam more ghosts than any other lord in the game, proportionally speaking.
You know those Wow players or league players who play nothing but those games...I think i've become... a... a.. total war player...
>>585670585The way I learned to play WoC is to play every battle not even using the units and just spamming lords/heroes and all the stuff to share xp for lords and heroes to make them actually usable. Then I would use shit stacks in those armies with usable lords and slowly level them up by hiding them in corners while the lords did all the world because you are incentivized to not let them die in fights.I definitely think the warband system should be supplementary. The way it currently works is that you have most of your units just hide until the fight is nearly over then you send them in for kills because you can't just replace warriors and I don't need to tell anyone that melee infantry is vulnerable to a lot of stuff, especially ones as slow as WoC ones
God I hate when it turns into a game of whack a mole>>585690508Sadly TW is my slop game even though I'm quite bored of it by now
>>585646032I hate them both
>>585690043>pile of violenceHow is Nurgle not included here? The optimal way to play them is literally to make a fucking retarded melee blob with no rhyme or reason with a spellcaster and shrine of Nurgle regenerating everyone while maxxing out as much wardsave, physical resistance, and magical resistance as you can
It's funny when winning a battle as Khorne and the number of skulls gained exceeds the total number of casualties on both sides. It's like flipping the couch cushions and finding rent money under there, except the rent money is hundreds of skulls.
>>585691447you KILLED PREGNANT WOMEN!!!!SHAME ON YOU!!!
>>585691447I always assume there happened to be a village nearby and winning the battle enabled the khornates to just go there afterwards for a bit of afterparty.

Is changeling as bad as people say to play? I want to try Tzeentch but I fucking hate where Kairos spawns
>>585691860>I fucking hate where Kairos spawnsPlay RoC
>>585691860He's fine for one playthrough because the issue is that he's so damn easy and safe you'll probably not be interested in picking him again. Like, you literally cannot lose unless you purposefully build your cults to be discovered all at once.He also has a problem that his schemes kinda rely on the world state remaining static from the start of the campaign, with all the factions staying right where they are and not getting wiped out, which is obviously not how things work. As a lord/army, he's very fun though.
>>585692050>He's fine for one playthrough because the issue is that he's so damn easy and safe you'll probably not be interested in picking him again. Like, you literally cannot lose unless you purposefully build your cults to be discovered all at once.Hm. I'll give him a shot then. I had the same problem with Khorne until they added Arbaal, Skarbrand's start location sucks and there is way too much space between settlements
>>585691860Kairos was too much fun to use and had to be gimped by placing him in one of the most anti-fun areas on the map.
>>585692195The ironic part in all of this is that I like Epidemius who basically spawns in the counterpart of Kairos' but in the North instead of the South
If you play a faction that the endgame crisis would be allied to do you have a chance to join them?
Guys im afraid of dow4tw40k cant flop
You shouldn't be notified which of your units will die in autoresolve. You should only get a vaguepost that says "expect moderate casualties" or something to that effect.
>>585692412dow4 is turbo shilledI have never before seen a game get so many showcase videos. + every warhammer youtuber is paid to play it.
>>585689845Kemmler is supposedly the guy, but he only adds like +2 to the ghost unit cap if you get him to rank 21. So he's not really the guy.
>>585692412you should be afraid FOR dow4 based on what people are saying
>>585692412Modern 40k sucks. So does modern fantasy but Total War Warhammer was made before ToW so it didn't add most of the retcons until game 3 basically and even then you don't have to play the fanfic factions of Cathay and Kislev.
>>585692950Warhammer (including 40k) lore always sucked, but the setting is fun
>>5856930023rd and 4th era before HH was pure SOVL for lore and setting. HH and 5th onwards was when it just became jerking off marines and the imperium and eventually led to the current marvel slop no one likes.
KWAB what a bitch

>>585693216Nagash tree only buffs morgais or whatever they're called, morghasts? other than the generic red line (nice ultimate tho)His black pyramid has buff for every type of unit, which is pretty fun. Can pretty much transform every unit in a way like Ghorst does with zombies
>>585693091Dont worry anon. tw40k will usher a new era of non marine interest, washing away the marinesloppa
>>585693216>What makes him the ghost guy, lore?His unique line gives bonuses to ghosts. Gives them stalk, regeneration, some other stuff.
honestly I only care about the fantasy races in 40k hope we get some cute elfu mods
>>585693386GW is already killing Warhammer and marine interest with really dumb decisions. Once the normalfags leave GW have pissed off their actual diehard fans with dumb lore decisions and retarded pricing. Total War 40k will probably see a ground swell in players but I think it will be temporary because modern Warhammer (which 40k is) is completely soulless. Total War Warhammer had the benefit of using older lore as it wanted, GW is policing the fuck out of 40k and thus it will force unpopular shit like primaris
it's a human setting xenosdditorave imperator
>>585693605>GW is policing the fuck out of 40k and thus it will force unpopular shit like primarisI'm still convinced the 40k related delays we've seen lately is partially because the companies were all blindsided by GW retiring non-primaris marines.
>>585693742I doubt that, they've been stealth mandating it for some time now. Point is that 40k and Warhammer more broadly was inevitably going to get popular as more people spread news about it and it got more exposure in games/lore, but GW is currently putting themselves in a really bad position for when that ground swell ends, which it eventually will. No hardcore fan enjoys shit like primaris, or femstodes, or marvel primarch shit/plot "progression", or the gender/race shit GW has been pushing, or price gouging, or many other problems they have been introducing since HH. GW's stock price actually has been dropping lately so both players and investors are getting tired of their shit. They could recover but they would have to walk back a lot of their bullshit and they just aren't going to do that until they already are hurting bad and by that point the damage will be set in and the loyal people will have all left and only reddit tier consumers will remain like with Star Wars
>>585693605it do feel like that>replace cool angry helmet>replace box dreadnaught with modernized version>replace predator tank with gay hover tank>put scopes on bolt guns (??????)>put magazine under the heavy bolter, and for some reason it has a power cord (???????????????)>females in the custodian brotherhood>enforce generic tracers for lasguns>"Intercessor squad"And I'm sure the list will grow. GW truly hates everything that's good. Trying to fix something that isn't broken. And if something is perfect, they manage to make it mediocre.
lmao so hardhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJCw1l2YuBk
>>585694553Everyone knows that they are doing primaris because they are trademarkable, same with all their other bullshit. Also to make marine fags buy new armies to even play.
>>585694636I thought that was fixed by calling them Astartes.

>>585694704>not a Loremaster of DeathYikes! That's embarrassing.
>>585694676Somewhat but primaris is even more trademarkable and like I said it forces marine fags to buy more marines to even play new rules. Most people seem to hate the current rules though in general>>5856951253rd was when the based spooky Necrons got released. 5th onwards was the dark ages where they gave necrons fucking space boats. The only post 4th thing I can say I truly like is the FFG TTRPGs. Most of the lore is a mixed bag or bad after 5e and HH
I asked this is a prior thread, but are chaos sorcerers that you change to a god lore supposed to keep their passive from their prior lore? I noticed they do this and am not sure if it is intentional or if you should always pick death to ascend for life leeching
>>585695125>like complaining about scopes on bolt guns when they always existedThe average bolter did not have a scope on it prior to primaris. Not sure why you'd lie about that. You know what you're saying isn't true.

It was literally lorebreaking. If they won War of Heaven, Eldar wouldn't be a dominant power in galaxy and doing nothing about them for 60 million years. It's absurd>nd says "but we need to make them more human and retarded space boats"That makes for a terrible faction for a tabletop wargame all about customizing armies with sculpting, kitbashing, converting and painting. They had zero content, retarded lore which didn't fit alongside Eldar and no customization potential. Personalities they already had and could talk. 5th edition codex gave examples of their higher ranking members with personalitiesSince their refresh was an objective and utter upgrade in every single way possible, by reverting them to white dwarf style where they were working on reversing biotransference, all Necron players naturally embraced them
>>585695836Actually, keep going. You said MOST of what i said is nonsense, and you picked one example to debunk. The scope. I'd like to know how the other points are "nonsense."

What's a good Empire / Karl army composition for endgame? I'm experiencing with a bunch of units and don't really feel comfortable with any of them. Handgunners need line of sight and don't last very long in combat so you have to micro them extensively. Hellstorm artillery is great but if you can't kill them enemy before they close the game, they become useless. Steam tanks are awesome but super expensive and take forever to build.
>thread turns into autistic shitflinging about obscure lore that is not brought up nor relevant to 99.99% of the setting's games and storylines but retards obsess over it because lore shittubers like talking about itonly thing cringer than muh war in heaven is the primarch shit
>>585698112Steamtank spam if you want doomstack. Empire is a faction where you have to mix units but outriders and steamtanks are good in most scenarios. Outriders suck in sieges though like all cav

>>585698036>FanficNope, 3rd Edition Necrons won completely. Old Ones lost, tried to cope and lost even harder due to Enslavers.In 5th Edition onwards Old Ones lost, C'tan were betrayed by Necrons, Necrons were too weak to defeat Eldar and went to sleep, Eldar continued to beat the shit out of them until they got bored>They still don't do anything in current lore. Nobody does anything in the lore, it's a static setting>Not even modern lore says this..They have complete map of all Necron tombs and could annihilate them at any moment if they wanted back when they were Empire.

I want to ask if there are any mods for the battle AI that make it less whatever it is right now. Basically all my battles right now are:>AI deploys super wide, even if concentrating would mean it could smash my frontline>hyper emphasizes flanking no matter the unit it is trying to flank with, will ignore threats attacking these flanking units(and sometimes force them through suicidally to get a flank even if it means said unit is basically dead)>this means my front will hold easily, the battle is always just a spaghetti brawl after their front collapses and the left and right flanks push in since it puts so many units there I will never win themIt feels like the AI is ironically so active that it is less able to just use numerical superiority to overwhelm me since at any given time it is trying to squeeze like 10 units to flank. And with cav and stuff the whole over emphasis on cycle charging means it will pull units out of mulching units from behind to instead do a charge somewhere else when it could have kept them in to collapse a section of the line(or cycle charged that pinned unit). Like 9/10 battles are it losing by spreading itself thin

>>585640221>>585695102>main character was originally a "Gate Warden" (probably means Gate Keeper) but was changed to be a Gate Master, it was a problem for GW because the book cover was already made but only a Gate Keeper can be battle stander bearer according to tabletop rules, so GW asked the author to add a scene were the main character use a big banner.>have to put all Chaos Lord onto a Manticore because it was the only option available for them at the time he wrote the book.>can't have Crowmen as unit (like in TWW) because in TOW they are only familiar for spellcaster.>no Tigermen because they are not yet in TOW.>was not allowed to use the "Vale of Titans" area because it's notyet in the Arcane Journals.>couldn't add any new units or heroes type that was not already existing.

>>585640221>>585695102>One of the best things I really enjoyed was how society is structured below the dragons. Obviously, I can't mess with them. It was one of the things they said because the dragons are going to figure prominently, I think. I don't know for sure, but you know, the dragons are big movers and shakers, so they didn't want me to doing anything specific with a dragon. They didn't want me to use a dragon, like, in person in the book. I mean, Miao Ying figures very prominently in the story, but she is not actually there.
>>585640221maybe if they put it on audible
>>585709897No audio book for this one, probably because they don't want the narrator to be accused of racism since that happened with the White Scar HH books
>>585710215??
>>585710256The narrator for the HH books did a Chinese accent when the White Scar characters were talking to each other
>>585710349I thought AI voiced books these days, unless they are very popular
>>585710448This was several years ago now
I'm not very good with battles in warhammer but I have a question with calvary. I used calvary that wasn't shock for a while, since I could use them to chase fleeing but not broken units to not return, and as a way to hinder opposing calvary. I learned to use the command to charge than retreat. But I was watching a youtuber, and his calvary just runs through enemies constantly. (Ruinous Inisght Nagash Campaign episode 39 first battle)I watched a few videos about using calvary better but my cav still charges in, slows down and gets beat to hell disengaging from units. How do you make your cav charge into and through units without getting slowed down?
>>585710782Just use better cav. Rot Knights run through 3 lines without issue.
>>585710782Charge the unit behind them.
>>585640221The other books in the link are all old books which I guess they're reprinting?
>>585712008The HH books are old ones getting reprinted; the AoS and TOW books are new
>>585710782What units you are charging, from where you're charging, and unit mass (I think?) mattersNagash probably has modifiers for it in the pyramid too
>>585710349Did he kowtow and apologize to mosta revehedah ancestahs at least?
>>585710782The skaven fight? He's running snakes thru skaven tier 1 units. Anything should wreck those with charge pretty much
>>585712365I think they removed the audiobook from sale and put up a different one
What are you even on about, vlad?
>>585713175Kemmler looks disappointed but unsurprised.
>>585690405technical presumably does not mean 'ranged' it means 'mechanically intensive' or something of the like.
>>585713175Shouldn't have fucked Isabella dude.
>>585713175why rank 101?
>>585710782You can charge right through when you're charging units that are-low mass-currently moving-on a slope-in a loose formationCharging downhill into a moving unit of Nasty Skulkers and killing the entire unit in one go, flying across the mountainside to die of fall damage a great distance away. Gives me boner.
>>585713445>>585713835As he sat in the cuckchair.>>585714018Because it's just the first few turns.
>>585707424Yes? They're the best race for skirmishing and skirmishing is the best strategy in the game which is why they made competitive Total War an objective mode instead of regular land battle.
Um why is everyone in the tourney an orderfag except Enticity?(who has no racial loyalty and just plays the strongest race on a given patch)
>>585640221>>585695102>I wanted to be very careful because Cathay is not China! But Cathay is also not not-China! I mean, I have been a big fan of the "Water Margin" my entire life. The "Outlaws of the Marsh", it's basically like the Chinese "Robin Hood". It's thousands of pages long and has, I think, a hundred characters, so it's very impenetrable to a Western reader like me. And it gives a lot of good insight into the society that is writing it. You know, this sort of collective punishment and you know, just sort of this authoritarian bent towards the society that they are in at the moment. I'm not saying China, China is a bright broad sweep of thousands of years, but yeah, the "Water Margin" I read. I read a lot of sort of stories. Chinese ghost fiction is sort of a huge popular genre, sort of like Pu Songling's "Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio" or Ji Yun's "Shadow Book". And then I read a lot of history as well. I have Chinese military, Military Culture in Imperial China, it was a fun book. It's a collection of basically articles about different military cultures in Chinese history. So that was very useful because I know that Cathay is sort of, is a pastiche, not a pastiche, but it blends a lot of different things taken from different points in Chinese history, so that was very useful to sort of flesh out the military aspect that I had to do sort of on the Bastion level. I also looked at like the Chinese bestiary which is a lot of fun. I don't know if you like the old Monster Manual from D&D but you can, you can definitely, they translate sort of, there are a ton of them on the market now that are translated and really well illustrated.
>>585714654because enticity looks like a skavenslave
>>585640221>>585695102But why are they not leading with a character that fans care about? Obviously Miao would be ideal but even just seeing what Zhao's province is like would be better than a Bastion middle-manager.
What exactly is happening when you fight an army that loses it all like any undead, daemons, etc. and somehow they have units left when you AR and they either retreat with units left or attack again despite them losing meaning they should have no units left? I thought they only got post-battle resurrections or replenishment if they won
>>585715005im the opposite; I don't care about the dragons and am more interested in how Cathay society works below them
>>585707424Wood Elves are the high micro high reward faction with probably the highest potential (assuming perfect execution)
>>585714712Holy shit, the amount of panic about the fact that he might say something the Chinese find offensive is hilarious.
>>585715421You thought wrong.
