Possible but not anytime soon then.

All guides i find online write that Darth Vader is one man army super unit that can take planets in ground battle at his lonesome, but i found him to be too underwhelming. what he is great blaster magnet and that's it. Emperor is kinda weak as well. Jedi hero on other hand are all fucking OP as hell. Kenobi can auto heal, is tanky as hell, way more tankier than vader anyway, Luke is very fast and you can turn invisible and run away if he's low on HP, and yoda IIRC can auto heal as well. General Veers is Empire's MVP of ground combat. he can spam units and his range is almost like artillery unit. and how you use Boba Fett in ground combat? his jetpack is good if you need to run away, but other than his flamethrower, he's just bit tankier stormtrooper (against anything other than infantry, he's useless)

>>2300572
They definitely fixed a problem from HoMM. In those games you can stack units indefinitely and have space in your army for one of each unit you have. Every game has the exact same army but in SoQ every faction have many different army compositions. I find that a lot more interesting. The only issue is they made the highest tier units too weak so you are better of spamming the low and middle tier troops.

Is the bald Danish dude's romhack any good or what do we think?
>>
>>2289872
I've seen exactly enough of the first and enough shilling of both to dismiss them as dogshit.
>>
>>2289872
Honestly the first one (as it is, not whatever the DE is going to be) is around on par with mid tier romhacks, but has better presentation and aesthetics than them.
The second one is ironically one of the better ones I've played, but does suffer from typical prequel issues, like not being a good stand alone game, kinda knowing how it's going to play out, and still hilariously missing up House Ring's lore.
With that said I feel like the two games are easier sell's than something like Hag in White, which as a pure gameplay and story narrative, are much better, but Hag in White also has extremely ugly characters, fags galore, unironic trannies, and on top of not really being a hard game.

So I guess the real question is, are these two games fantastic on their own? ehhhhhh, they're alright. Do they look better(key word, look better) than what's surrounding them? Hell yeah they do. Are they must play games? Not at all no. Would I rather play them than half the shit on FEU? Sadly yes.
In my opinion if your a gameplay fag that loves quirkly characters and a bad story that tries to be serious, like Engage, you'll enjoy his game, otherwise you can take them or leave them, like most rom hacks.

What would an FE game without all it's myriad tropes look like anyway?

I always loved how sexy the titans are in Disciples 2, even though they are completely useless. I think D2 is actually the only game ever that has a unit named 'titan' which is worse than a couple of basic melee fighters of its own race.

commie-dwarves edition

Previous: >>2266425
Avaliable for free at https://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/
or as a paid premium version on Steam or Itch.io

>What is the difference?
Both are the same game on the same version (53.xx). The free version uses ASCII as a tileset (but you can mod other usermade tilesets and graphic packs)
With the premium version you pay for a premium tileset + premium OST + access to beta branches and steam integration (if on steam).

>!!NEWS!!
11/03/25 - The first part of the Siege Update was released as version 53.xx, giving besiegers (goblins and humans) the ability to dig/destroy walls, build paths, more awareness of traps and killzones, and more.

>What is next?
Bugfixing/maintaince cycle and later Siege Update Part II, which aims bring some magic into fort mode by adding spellcasters and warlocks into the besiegers ranks, and have them set your dorfs pants on fire. Also some form of magical defence for your dorfs.

Not Flooded yet, but I've also not blocked the stream. I'm digging out the reservoir and canyon at the moment. I want enough volume to properly flood things on release. The plan is too bring the water down into the final fortress. I suspect my dwarfs are competent Hydro-engineers, so there's no reason to worry about flooding. Only one has drowned so far, significantly fewer than those who have died to falls over the 15 layer tall canyon edge.

I've been lurking around here and people seem to mention Total War a lot. I talked to one of the guys at my local GW I know, and he recommended Medieval 2, but Rome Remastered looks pretty interesting (Rome is cool). I know basically nothing about Total War. I have only played traditional RTS games and X-COM when it comes to strategy. Which one is the better choice, or is there a better 'beginner' game out there?
(I'm a zoomie btw, but I don't care what year it's from or how old it is. I generally prefer historical to Warhammer fantasy, though)

Well I had a fun time fighting against Skirmish AI. I cant tell if they actually need recon or supplies though.

It is kind of nice to play a deck that I think is just thematically cool without worrying about being hard countered and sweating. But the AI is very aggressive and always pushing, so I cant get that good feeling you get when breaking open a turtling player and raping his asshole

I, unfortunately, spent a shit ton of wood on a pasture before realizing that my starting livestock expired. I am once again bottlenecked by wood, because I now need it to craft furniture for hunters to make up what the pastures lost.
I bought some Garthimi slaves and put them to work tunneling in hopes of getting a mushroom farm going before I run out of food. I'll probably be able to last until the summer for forage, but I think my food consumption is 6x my production at the moment.
