Bretonnia rework soon, friends!

First for warrior nuns best unit of the year for 13 years now
For the Ladyโs grace, I declare Bretonnia supreme oโer all in /twg/! No Greenskin rabble, Vampire filth, Empire pomp, Dwarf stubbornness, Elf frailty, or Skaven scum rivals our chivalrous might! Our knights, blessed by the Grail, shatter all foes with lance and hoof. Proclaim it: Bretonnia reigns eternal! For the Lady! For the King!
this was fucking hard, thank god i had a place where i could fight the enemy downhill
Wondering about Wulfrik's rework.
>>528046228Vile knave, thy tongue profanes the sacred Lady of the Lake! Repent, or face the righteous charge of our knights!

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>528046490Completely unrelated but I always thought the slayer in Vermintide 2 shouted
>KIIIIILLL MEEEEEEwhich I found hilarious and made sense lore wise but was disappointed to find out he actually says >GRRRIMMMNIIIIR
>>528046791That's funny, but I don't think a slayer would ever actually say that as a war cry. It would imply they want any two bit marauder or rat to kill them, and it's obviously about finding the foe that's actually worthy of it.
>>528045739>Bretonnia reigns eternal! For the Lady! For the King!
>>528047347What is happening here? Is he exploding that Orcs head with just his hand?
>>528045739BY THE LADY... YES!
>>528047576Are you retarded?
>>528047576Yes. Such is the might of the dawi.
He struck with his axe, it got stuck in the orc's head, then he gripped with his other, free hand to leverage to wrench the axe free. You can see the trail of blood from the axe to the head.

I know bretonnians are fond of cheese, but since when have they had whiskers and wormlike tails?
I too like to see orion skinned and hung on a post.
>>528049187Cuckoldry is part of Athel Loren tradition.
Am I missing something with Goldfag? It seems I canโt lose as long as I only stick to contracts
The Drycha X French romance is once again kindled as we both hate the wood elves of athel loren

>>528047968Favored daughter of Manann
on the subject of meow and chinese bitches: white people are unironically racist and think that the standard of beauty they are familiar with is only for white people and non-whites must be like aliens into weird shit. in reality non-whites see the same things as attractive like pale skin, big eyes, and small noses as white people do.
I hate hearing Drycha's voice lines on the diplomacy screen. I always have to turn the volume down.
>>528049274OH NO NO NO NO
>>528049637 HAHAHAHAHAH
>>528047968Still holding out hope that one day she gets replaced by a "Pirates of Sartosa" faction with a normal Blackbeard-esque pirate LL and Pirate/adventurer/mercenary units from Order and Neutral aligned races.
>>528049780The lads are getting tired of eating Lizards. They're stringy.
>>528050713Post stats of your big guy.
>>528050595More likely she becomes DoW and VCoast gets another lord to replace her
>>528050713Oh yeah that faction. Shit's fun af
>>528050595Thatโs never, ever, ever going to happen. Just use the Sartosa mod.
>>528050713>more chaos in Lustria
>>528050948They actually start up near Zatahn...
>>528050595Well you might get her as part of DoW with that.
However, you'd never get a different LL, she's THE sartosa pirate lord.
Your last played LL burns down your house, steals your money, deletes your campaigns, and rips you in half.
How do you respond without sounding mad?
>>528051674Mr. Golgfag, who fucking hired you?
>>528051674>throtCan't say it's out of character, if anything I got off easy
>>528051674Arbaal... I didn't even challenge him.
>>528051989Take it as a compliment. THE Destroyer of Khorne thought you were badass enough to put up a good fight.
>>528050595Mortal pirates are a relic of the past, it's a wonder they have survived at all after Harkon started his business. Considering the outlaw status of the pirates there is really nothing to prevent vampires from dominating the field. Legal merchantmen benefit from the protection of organized clergy, the naval forces of the associated states and so on.
So no DLC before August or at best July? That sucks, but this patch is very nice.
>>528051674Zoolahoo-kun, w-why?
>>528047576That slayer knows karate.
>>528051674>'Isabella is cheating on you with-'then I die
>>528051674I didn't realize Ghorst was that jacked
>>528049679You're missing the fact that CA designs all their DLC now to be retardproof as possible because people complain a lord is "bad" whenever they make something actually challenging (or even just powerful but with downsides).
>>528051674I dont speak chin- i mean cathayan.
>>528051674Arahan do be like that, gonna ask her sister to let me sleep at her house, give me some money and play coop campaign with me.

>>528052627The plague couldn't kill him even when he wanted it to. He's peak.
>>528045493why can't you give us a sauce or define "soon"?
>>528053341All will be made clear in 6 months.
when you think about it vampirates were really a shameless gash grab. like 90% of their roster is just reskins. half of their roster is just zombies with pirate hats and different types of guns. if you want to be generous and say "but that's the point of vampire pirates" the rest of their roster is even worse. syreens are just vaguely nautical themed wraith reskins. dogs and bats are literally just vc dogs and bats and aren't even pirate themed. mornghouls don't have a single pirate or naval themed aspect to their design or description. basically the only actually original vampirate units are the crabs and the necrofex, which is arguably just a reskinned bone giant.
>>528053672Everything Rob Bartholomew did was a cash grab.
>Made Helman Ghorst a DLC instead of what people actually wanted in order to prolong further Vampire DLC.(Backfired on him.)>Made Vampire Coast happen(Because he wanted it.)>Started his pet project Hyenas to divert all funds to it.(The ultimate backfire.)>Made Daniel Happen because he thought Daniel would be popular and that every DLC was going to sell more parts for him so everyone would buy more DLC in order to fund his pet project Hyenas.>Responsible for Shadows of Change 1.0 with sky high prices for very little content so he could funnel all the money to Hyenas..(Backfired on him.)Now he is out of the industry working for a wood company according to his linkedin.
>>528051674I show Miao picrel.
>>528053672Yep, a huge waste of charlemagnes.
They couldn't even do it right. Aranessa and that fat bitch, fucking hell.
But of course the ledditors here gobbled it up because muh shanty
>>528054259it's a shame because vampirates are a cool concept. who didn't like pirates of the caribbean? they just needed more piratey units.
Sup, homos.
I have been away for many months.
What is CA up to these days?
Why the fuck does playing Archaon for fucking years now mean that if I alt tab the game crashes.
Doesn't happen even with other WoC ffs.
Hey, Empirefags!
>*yoink*
Pssh, nothing personal...
>>528054438I'm pretty sure vamp coast is by the least popular faction here, and in general.
>>528054914I have less liked ones, believe me.

>>528054259Fuck you I like daniel. He might be shit in vanilla but he gave modders a great and extremely open ended mechanic.
>>528054914Norsca, Khorne and Lizardmen exist.
>>528055216I'm still disappointed by how underutilized the idea of a "customized" Legendary Lord is.

when Yin-Yin?
>>528054914Going by steam statistics it's the third most unpopular, only above wood elves and Norsca. Tomb Kings and beastmemes are slightly more popular and complete the bottom 5 unpopular factions.
>>528054747No you retard
>invest more in this pirate faction >in this game that doesnt even have naval UNITS>let alone naval battles or anything resembling a trade system you can actually perform any actual piracy onThe only thing that was needed was making Luthor a VC FLC lord with a few reskinned zombies. His focus should have been what they did in the RPG: making him focused on conquering Lustria, and downplayed the pirate thing to a simple look. A coincidence owing to the fact that he lures ships to the coast and raises the dead.
>>528051674If Grombrindal judged this was necessary, it's because my ancestors wronged him in some way, and is thus entirely fair and justified. I accept my death and only ask that he allows me the honor of taking the slayer oath and hold an axe (and have a sip of Bugman's for courage) before he rips me in half.
>>528054747Itโs a bigger shame that the lore actually has a ton of undead themed pirates yet CA didnโt utilise any of them besides Luthor and Noctilus
>>528055659>order races>getting contentlol
I got a free warhammer 3 key, is there any reason to play 1 now or does that combined campaign supersede it?
>>528055659I'm actually impressed at just how much the idea of Yin-Yin = Aqua has seeped into the playerbase.
>>528055153>HyenasI am surprised the tards at CA fell for looter shooters when so many flopped.

>>528053672>when you think about it vampirates were really a shameless gash grabThat's just Fantasy though lol. You have people in this very general clamouring for Dogs of War and that's literally just Reskin: The Faction
>>528059529Which is why it's going to be the price of a lord pack and come out at christmas.
>>528050790>and VCoast gets another lord to replace herSkretch Half-Dead yes-yes
>>528059529pikemen would not be a shameless reskin if ca actually bothered to implement formations for them
>>528055836It has less content but it's also more lean. Global map look much better and it play faster. Also colonization mechanics is more severe. DESU I wish that Wh1 and 2 could get uplift
>>528050763>>528050850>>528050948I stopped and had lunch (lol) so I just finished the battle now.
...we're probably gonna go back to Bloodwind Keep after this one and get some fresh lads.
>>528046340If any Empire general said that to a Bretonnian, he'd take it as a compliment. 100%.
>>528059892The one thing I really miss about 1 and 2 is how playing Archaon was an endgame tide with no backup that had the world against him shitting out corruption. You visibly left ruin in your wake.
In warhammer 3 chorfs beat the shit out of kislev most of the time and the empire is in shambles to chaos before they added elspeth. Plus the corruption looks less evil and you have norscans everywhere.
>>528059529I want silly Italian accents.

>>528047347Is there anything in Warhammer more cringy than slayers? Even art of them makes me cringe. It's like a 12 year old conceptualized them
>>528060364"Tileans, my lord" will be the new ogres.
>>528060989I love that Tilean lore is full on Italian stereotypes and on top of that most of it was written by an actual Italian. Chinks have proven they cannot laugh at themselves like that.
>>528061269They have no soul. Italians are pure soul even if dirty and ragged
Potion of Peed optimization update (& Grom) saw the biggest uptick in players for TWWH2, will this optimization update for TWWH3 cause a similar effect?
>>528061269>Chinks have proven they cannot laugh at themselves like that.Maybe that's partly why Cathay never seemed to click with me. Just not as fun when the faction doesn't poke fun of itself.

Squiggos are anti-infantry so I kinda get that one, but are they AP enough to deal with DAWI?
Morale is much lower in historical titles. You really feel how effective flanking and rear charges can be.
>>528065406Pump wagons are great for what they are.
>>528065406Wagons are micro heavy so I wouldn't use a lot of them if you can't handle it, but they can do some nice damage.
Fuck me that was a slog, best I can do I think. I'm not impressed with the banshee desu, I'm probably using her wrong but she seems to die very quickly and not do much damage.
>>528066447Banshees should be used as campaign agents
>>528065574You donโt know what I feel.
>>528066447Unironically, Banshees should legit never be in an army. They're not worth the slot, and they can assassinate.
My friends, Banshees provide increased mobility for embedded armies on the campaign map.
>>528067295Oh... huh... I guess 1 can go into my main army.
Its over... Legend has left us https://youtu.be/wRsliLDQsic
>>528067051>>528066578They're the campaign movement range hero, kinda necessary for avoiding attrition
>>528067742BRING ME HER HEAD!
For our newer players: Increased Replenishment and Increased Mobility are 100% always worth a slot in your army. Both of those campaign buffs are incredible.
I must say, Azhag on Legendary early on is quite butt clenching if you don't want to cheese because of Ungrim
>>528051674I had no ill designs on Tor Yvresse, or like Greenskins at all, I swear
>>528068225Scouting and training kinda suck though, sadly.
>>528068262I put points into Spirit Leech and Life Leeching just so I can spam it on Ungrim.
>>528066447Based, Total Uzkul Death
>>528068463For me he wasn't that difficult to deal with, I just throw at him shit units and occasionally spirit leech him. I had more problems with his slayer pirates because you are forced to take damage and no early greenskin unit really counters them. Even mangler squigs underperformed. It feels like Azhag is supposed to have different unit composition early on in order to deal with Ungrim better but he doesn't.
>>528068420I use training stuff when I either have nothing else worth nabbing or (more often) when I'm using an army to sit in a settlement and defend against any invasions. If the enemy refuses to attack, they at least get stronger over time.
>Ice Court building chain is a series of courthouses
Did someone at CA think the court in "Ice Court" refers to a court of law?
>>528045739>Honhongon! *man choking on a frog noises*>Zeh Ladej!Huh? In Reikspiel please.
>>528066447BASED DAWI
KHAZUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUK
>>528069161I use the training ones quite often, but it's literally entirely because most of my favorite factions have REALLY GOOD army heroes that have training.
Ogres for example
>Firebellies - Scouting (both kinda suck)>Butcher - Replenishment (both good)>Bruiser - Training (Training sucks but it's such a good hero)>Hunter - Movement (Both great)
>>528069258Leave our Bulgarian dog-spinner developers alone.
>>528068420Training is actually very usefull. Its percentage based now, you feel its impact.
And early scouting might be worth it now since they decreased drop rates.
>>528066447everyone and their mother has magic attacks now so ethereal is useless

Felix was somewhat down to bone (he fucked a corpse before, specifically Ulrika) and Gotrek was dying of laughter
The patch seems to have changed (or broken) how character attributes are modded. I cannot figure out how to add or remove attributes with the new table.
>>528071454Have you considered not making cheats
>>528071692I can just use the console commands for that. PS5 may be more your speed if you don't like playing games that provide modding tools to players.

>>528073476What's your favorite order faction?
>>528073628Chorf or slaanesh then.
>>528073090But Anon, that would be cheating.
>>528073579Ignore
>>528073628But my favorite Order faction is high elves or Lizards conceptually
>>528073827Uhhh, probably Tzeench or Khorne then.
Tzeench if you like the magic and archer/spearmen combo, Khorne if you want Ctrl+A - Drag forward
>>528070480Said Tomb Guard was also huge.
>>528073983So vilitch or kairos I guess?I'd want something a bit more complex than drag and pile of violence I think.
>>528067970Why does she have...uh...a bulge in her bandages?
>>528074062Yeah. This is literally a scene in the book.
She picks up a 6 foot man and carries him out of a battle while taking arrows.
She's a fucking badass and should be a LH for Khalida.
>>528074445Penis. :3
>want to start new game with new update
>just end up endlessly scrolling through factions at start screen
>>528074205Warriors and Khorne are basically pile of violence.
Slaanesh is Nyoom around, more like mid-game tomb kings honestly.
Nurgle is slow pile of violence, you actually might enjoy them NGL.
But yes, Kairos or Vilitch would be most up your alley. Moreso Kairos
>Shadows of Change 2.0 hinted that Crom the Conqueror who is famous for conquering and uniting the Kurgans would be coming as legendary lord.
>Still nowhere in sight.
They are holding him back for Warriors of Chaos DLC for the final DLC aren't they?
>>528075242Are Kurgans more WoC or Norsca?
>>528074542wernt the constructs in that story like normal people too? I remember the explanation being that Lybaras was the scholar city of Nehekara o their constructs were better or some shit
>>528075571Crom would have to be WoC because he is Archaon's herald.
>>528071454what seems to be the issue? my mod works just fine and the attribute table looks the same it always did
>>528073476most them are melee
>Warriors of Chaos: Tough melee combatants with cavalry (armoured)>Khorne: Tough melee combatants with cavalry (deadlier)>Beastmen: middling melee combatants with monsters>Nurgle: Tough melee combatants with cavalry (but tougher and slower)>Norsca: Discount Warriors of Chaos (with elephants)>Slaanesh: Fragile melee combatants with cavalry (but even deadlier)But there are some ranged factions
>Tzeentch: All the good stuff from Warriors of Chaos, also does lots of ranged damage at medium range>Chaos Dwarfs: Think dwarves with even better ranged units and artillery, but also has cavalry and monsters. Their campaign can take a little getting used to, thoughI've ordered them from simpler to more intricate, though it's a close call between tzeentch and chorfs for different reasons
>>528075571Whatever you think Warhammer Mongols/Steppes people fits best. He is their leader after he united them and has direct ties as an enemy of Cathay.
Who is more fun, Vilitch or Kairos? I don't have the Changeling DLC.
>>528076156Kairos, by FAR.
Mother Ostankya is a series of slightly annoying decisions
>binary choice between being locked out of 90% of Kislev units, or having total access to the roster
>gimped if you choose to stay in Naggaroth
>participates in the Ice Court vs Orthodoxy for no reason
>trains Ice Witches instead of Hags
She should have her own "Old Faith" vs Orthodoxy mechanic that lets her slowly unlock the roster as she converts more of Kislev away from the Orthodoxy back to worship of nature spirits. Also Hag school.
>>528076156Do you want a Tzeentch experience or Warriors of Chaos experience with a very slight Tzeentch flavor?
Have you accepted that Yin Yin and Monkey King, if they even make it into the game, will now be Legendary Heroes?
>>528075908Thanks. I'll try Beastmen or maybe Nurgle in that case but I think the only Nurgle LL that looks interesting is Tamurkhan
>>528075242is it possible that hint referred to tamurkhan instead since he was in the next dlc? he is kurgan although he is only little of a tiny tribe well under the power of crom of course
>>528076414Fuck yin yin. Li Dao and monkey king are where it's at.
>>528075745>>528075776>>528076058I was wondering if he might end up being this weird in between faction, playing as Norsca but having WoC unit upgrade mechanic or something like that. I wouldn't be surprised if CA wants to explore more chaos factions through Norsca in the future.
>>528076286I mean I dig WoC but is it really only Slight?
>>528076236Ok, wasn't sure how he was without the DLC.
>>528076414Yinyin won't be a LH. If she makes it in she'll be a lord
However, monkey king hero I could see. and I hate it
>>528076259Kislev has been fucked in myriad ways since launch.
>>528076414I mean Monkey ALWAYS made sense as a legendary hero especially with Gamesworkshop outright confirming just minimal his role is in Cathay. Yin-Yin being downgraded would be very weird though.
>>528076423Nurgle's pretty interesting, from what I remember they've got a slow-ish start before they start rolling over everything
except if you're playing Tamurkhan, in which case you immediately roll over everyone
i'm going to miss tard throgg when they replace his voicelines
>>528076708I EAT MY ENEMIES :DDDDDD
>>528076632>The most popular character in China always made sense as a legendary hero instead of a lordAre you one of the brilliant minds who greenlit Hyenas?
>>528076414I mean Gamesworkshop made it VERY clear in their recent blog posts that Monkey "King" isn't even a king and has never ruled anything so he is perfect legendary hero fodder. Even if Yin-Yin is a tabletop hero should would just be upgraded as FLC LL to be on equal footing with her siblings.
>>528075242It was for Sayl.
>>528076632People thought Monkey King would be a lord because it would be boring if every Cathay LL was just a different flavour of haughty dragon prince.
>>528076784I was literally born in China. You severally overestimate the role Sun Wukong plays in China. He is never viewed as a ruler. He is a prankster that happens to be heroic and a great warrior.
CA and GW would be fools to make the monkey a LH. It's free money.
>>528061269>I love that Tilean lore is full on Italian stereotypes and on top of that most of it was written by an actual Italian.Yeah it's great.
It's funny as fuck and there's also plenty of detail and genuine knowledge and love for Italian history and culture but not in a
Cathay just seems kind of too perfect, humourless and just ....doesn't feel like it fits into the Warhammer world.
Never played Dorfs before. Which LL?
>>528070119Yeah, its actually a lot more reactionary over just doing the same expansion over and over again because not only are the usual enemies not just having a hate boner for you minor settlements are actually threats
>>528077120Okay explain how CA is going to fit in three more lords.
>Monkey King(Who is going to need his own DLC to have his own generic lord and hero plus non-human units since GW blog said he has never used human troops.)>Li Dao(Who needs his own DLC since he uses tons of monk units and has various Cathay lore units tied directly to him.)>Yin-Yin(Who we know nearly nothing about except her alleged sword and role in the navy.)
>>528077281You get the same experience with all 3. Just pick the one with faction effects you like the best.
>>528074542>She's a fucking badass and should be a LH for Khalida.What about that Dwarf Tomb King? Rhupesh or whatever he's called?
>>528077681What about Thorek?
>>528077814He honestly should be a lord...
He's kinda too cool to just be a hero. He's like tomb king Gor Rok
>>528076809You do realize Monkey King will take power only in something like 100 years after TOW era ?
So saying "he is a king only in name" is not different from TWW loading quote about him.
>>528077516There will be at least 4 more DLCs not counting the end times DLC
>>528077681>3>Malakai, Thorek, Grombrindal all having rather unique campaigns compared to Thorgrim, Belagar, and Ungrim.
>>528075896I was going to play around with switching yin and yang on different units last night but the drop-down menu doesn't show the list of options. I figured it out now that I'm not retarded drunk, you can just manually type in what you want and it works.
>>528078032>You do realize Monkey King will take power only in something like 100 years after TOW era ?You do realize GW made a blog post about that saying he never actually ruled right?
https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/zscdwwzf/old-world-almanack-a-short-history-of-cathay/
>>528078258muh blogpost
>old worldlol
>>528078258In TOW era (circa 2280), correct.
Good thing TWW is set around K.F era (2500).
>>528077281thorgrim is the real dwarf experience everything else is a meme
>>528076784You have no idea what you are talking about. Wukong is the definition of hero. His lore has nothing to do with being a lord or commander of armies.
>>528077281>you want a safe start with an aggressive army that doesnt lose steamUngrim Ironfist
>you want a safe start that gradually becomes difficult because you are surrounded by multiple LLsThorgrim Grudgebearer

>>528078032like the guy said said monkey king never actually ruled anything
>>528078230>you can just manually type in what you want and it works.lmao anon
>>528078023>He honestly should be a lord...Where would he start the campaign if he was a LL? In Lybaras and move Khalida elsewhere?
>He's kinda too cool to just be a hero. He's like tomb king Gor RokIsn't he supposed to be good at crafting contructs, or is that just Lybaras in general?
>>528078631I love Thorek for the fact that regular Quarrelers become super OP with 210+ range, high ranged AP damage
>>528078631I think I will go Thorek then. Any tips for Dwarfs or him in general?
>>528078730yep, i can see the chink sensitivity teams at work in that line
>>528078258>>528078730the question becomes then, do they mean the Dragon Siblings fooled the Monkey King into thinking he had control (why would they do that) or do they mean that Xen Yang allowed the Monkey King to rule, and therefore "was allowed to believe he was in charge"?
>>528078863>Where would he start the campaign if he was a LLas a secondary lord for Lybaras, which ngl, they kinda need in vanilla.
>Isn't he supposed to be good at crafting contructs, or is that just Lybaras in general?Somewhat, he was one hell of a priest king, but his big thing was walls. His walls were near impenetrable.
>>528078630Imagine if they made one of the Founding Fathers a LH instead of a LL, do you get it now? It's not about being a ruler or not, it's about being popular.
You don't want the Monkey King to be a unit in your army, you want to be him.
>>528078630I'm talking about business decisions. Lore can be whatever they want.
>>528078730>one time Cathay actually suffers a major setback on a national scale>no sweaty it was all a joke the glorious CCCP, uh, dragon emperor was in control all along
>>528078946Thorek buffs Quarellers and Grudge Throwers and makes them feel useful the entire game rather than most of the game like this anon pointed out
>>528078910 hes really cost effective because of that, he also buffs runelords and runesmiths so hes kind of the "magic" heavy army. If youre not playing with minor settlement potential turned on the basic choice is to befriend the Lizardmen nearby, beat the Skaven then try and clear out the savage orcs then prepare for Kairos to land
>>528079374Sounds fun. So I just ignore all gunpowder units with him? I can do that.
>>528079368don't want to remind the chinks of any of the times in history where they were ruled by outsiders because it might cause a meltdown
>>528079593Thorek is a boomer tradionalist manlet, he hates new technology including gunpowder
It was a great time when he was first released, nowadays "ranged" units are mostly shotguns because of MPniggers
MPniggers don't like and don't use high ranged units so CA keeps adding shotgun style ranged units
>>528079747I'll give him a go. Fighting a demontide sounds fun as does a 'magic' heavy dwarf army

>>528076414Yin-Yin and Li Dao will be LLs
Monkey King will be a LH
>>439110775 literally told you this 2 years ago
Yuan Bo came out just like I said, and the rest of my post will be proven correct too
Li Dao and Yin-Yin are LLs next with MK as Cathay's LH
the need for hobgobla khanate is critical
name their lead hobgobbo after kublai khan for maximum butthurt and have his quest be taking the cathay capital and renaming it
>>528080119I'd love for a full Hobgoblin faction for TOW but it'd never happen
What are the key differences between goblins and hobgoblins? They look the same in the game. In D&D there is a large difference in their appearance.
>>528080595Hobgoblins are so shitty that even Goblins are better than they are morally.
>>528080595>gobbos:I
>gobbos, mongolian:O
>>528080595Even less people like hobgoblins, including other greenskins
Why aren't (you) playing the new DEI-approved Warhammer TTrpg?
>>528076414Consider the following: Cathay currently only has 3 LLs, Li Dao, Yin Yin, and Monkey King all being LLs would put them on par with most factions. Also TT heroes have been upgraded before
>>528080595Goblins are greedy hook-nosed evil backstabby creatures who live in settlements
Hobgoblins are greedy hook-nosed evil backstabby creatures who live in a nomadic khagnate
very different
>>528082013how many fucking times have you spammed these like three webms at this point?
>>528055869It's entirely on GW/CA for not at least releasing a concept art so people wouldn't fall into the logical conclusion, given her theme and characterization.
Shouldn't have let it fester for years.
>>528082013>he doesn't know about b4k.devholy new
>>528080595>They look the same in the game.8th edition was the nadir of Warhammer design. The shit Black Orcs you can see ingame that don't have big horns and red plumes on their helmets are the products of the same grimdark epic movie game influences that ruined the original board game. Just pretend the shitty bull centaurs without hats or armor, the sorcerers with tiny little skullcaps, the infernal guard with their complete lack of any hats, and hobgobs that look like night goblins don't exist.
>>528081816Consider the following. Yin and Yang must be in balance. Monkey King is aligned against Yin and Yang so he would throw off the balance. There needs to be 2 yang and 2 yin lords or 3 of each.
Yuan Bo: Yang
Zhao Ming: Yang
Li Dao: Yang
Miao Ying: Yin
Yin-Yin: Yin
Shen Zoo: Yin
Like the campaign says they are out of balance with the youngest sibling Shen Zoo missing because Yin is weaker. Which means there is no place for Monkey King as LL. We are going to get 2 more DLCs. Li Dao and Yin-Yin. FLC will be Shen-Zoo to balance it out so there are 3 yang and 3 yin lords. Right now we have 2 yang lords and one yin.
>>528082780>Consider the following. Yin and Yang must be in balance. Monkey King is aligned against Yin and Yang so he would throw off the balance.That could be a campaign mechanic though. He could focus on sowing disharmony
>>528082423>3Post the 2 others! I need them.
>>528083029There isn't going to be 7 LLs and there isn't going to be an offset balance of lords. There is going to be an equal number of yin and yang lords by the end.
>>528083775Shen Zoo isn't getting in. She's about as likely as Khuresh or Araby.
>>528083492imagine kneeling in front of her massive futa cock and seeing this...
Are we gonna finally get a Slanesh Lord who is actually an attractive female? We already got Sigvald as an attractive male.
>>528084407>Slaanesh>Attractive femalesThere are not any. Slaanesh is known for their attractive males like Styrkaar.
>>528084694Yeah but TCA has already made up Lords for this game, so they can totally add a big titty bimbo.

As Golgfag, how many Contract can i have active at the same time ?

Are we ever going to get warriors of chaos storms of chaos tabletop miniature units?

>>528084407>Lord If we are lucky ToT add Druchii Anointed to Slaanesh and they made her a cute female.
>>528085567Technically, the "modern" chaos warriors design date back from SoC.
>>528085567Warriors of Chaos still has a lot of stuff they can add. No reason why they can't have their second DLC ever.

>>528086275>Legendary Hero: Kordel ShorgaarWonder why he was not in the champions of chaos dlc as the legendary hero...he literally came in tabletop starter park army with Archaon so if you play warriors of chaos tabletop you know who he is.
>>528080595Hobgobs have bone backplates for anti-stabbing
The rest is purely socioeconomic factors
Lots of you talk about Medieval 3 but what about Rome 3?
>>528087069There is not really a demand for that until Medieval 3 arrives. Same situation as Shogun 3.

>>528087681why does the supposed infallible great plan go south for the lizards? why do elves pick leaders based on who is suicidal enough to dive into fire? why do full grown men suddenly appear out of nowhere in the chaos wastes? why do the chaos gods hate each other so much despite having so much overlap? why does malekith hate snow? Why are dwarfs such a contentious group of people? Why aren't you green?
High key nekearan horses kinda good. Even with my army half wounded, they somehow pulled a W.
>>528087390You are wrong, Chud.
>>528087390why not? It's not like the empire is some racially defined entity. Maybe some niggers made it there from not Africa or something.

What is the point of everyone having n magic damage?
>>528081257Play? With fucking who? I live in a country where tabletop players only exist at (((paid))) conventions. The one guy I know that likes Warhammer is a literal chudjack (face, glasses and all) and he makes card decks and that's it. Playing a Witch Hunter sounds fun tho

Since Masque of Slaanesh is completely redundant as a lord with Dechala existing as a LL which means by default she will be the legendary hero who is the FLC legendary lord?
The Masque is the FLC lord.
>>528092024>Literally both have dances of Slaanesh.>LIterally both buff same thing.>Literally fulfil same battle roles.Please use logic.
>>528092024how do you know?
>>528091534the general consensus is that Strykaar is going to be the flc lord
>>528091534Isn't Styrkaar or whoever also literally just Dechala
>>528092024Bro they literally are identical in tabletop. CA isn't going to release exact clones of each LL at the same time for the same race. For fuck's sake they both have the dances of Slaanesh. The only difference between them is the edition they came from. There is not a single legendary character in the game that is not like their tabletop rules.
>>528091160Oh yea, I see Khataep and Cylostra and Noctilus take slices of Uthwan all the time, the location isn't what I was talking about, it was the alliance.
>>528091509I don't remember Khatep's story. Did he go into exile, or was he exiled by Settra? If the latter, maybe a move like this isn't so unexpected.
It certainly was unexpected for me, who expected every Tomb King to hate me the whole game. All of the Vampire Counts and Vampire Pirates got flattened by Chaos or Order, so that does leave me all alone in my corner of the Badlands.
y'all need to play other games
>>528092280No. Their rules are completely different. He is actually unique.
>>528087069There isn't enough demand and Rome 2 is in a fairly good state. Rome 3 needs way more time to cook.
Medieval TW 2 is arguably more popular and it makes sense chronologically for it to get a new game before Rome. Med 2 is not in a good state, it's extremely outdated. Particularly with how combat feels and controlling units.
But with 40k on the way I can't imagine them spending too much man power on historical titles, especially with the recent flops.
>>528092280styrkaar is like the arbaal equivalent for slaanesh, he's a chaos warrior who rides on a snake and he is archaon's bottom bitch

>>528090770>Elf haters>Trade with elf
>>528092280>Isn't Styrkaar or whoever also literally just DechalaIs this suppose to be a joke? He has different weapon types, is the only Slaanesh character that can use mounts, and can't use the dances.

>>528093450No
Who is the first LL
>>528092280>Isn't Styrkaar or whoever also literally just DechalaGilberion was the first tabletop version. His rules were taken by Dechala later. Then she got replaced by Vandred in tabletop who took her rules. Then he got replaced Masque after that. All those characters are literally the same character tabletop wise. Styrkaar is actually something unique. Especially for Slaanesh since he can use mounts unlike everyone else in Slaanesh.
>>528093431we need more details
>>528092543iirc Khatep was exiled by settra until he could bring about a golden age that the mortuary cult promised. hes still very loyal to nehekara tho. Funny thing is in the end times Khatep learns about nagash coming back early and leaves exile to warn settra. Settra thanked him and then obliterated him with his settra powers for leaving his exile.
>>528094114I'm not asking you, I am telling you Who is the first LL of the DLC

>>528095502Dechala literally has the same mechanics as Masque on tabletop with the dances. See here:
>>528092497They aren't going to make her the only lord in the game not using her tabletop mechanics.
>>528095723I mean if you want to get technical about the situation. Dechala is Greater Demon that was never mortal if they are going by End Times. She is mortal if you are going by 5th edition before she got written out of lore. Then you got Styrkaar who is mortal in Storms of Chaos but gets upgraded to a lesser demon in End Times as a reward from Slaanesh. Either one of those two could fit two roles. So like say they decide Dechala is the mortal lord they can say Styrkaar is the lesser demon.

>>528100879Dechala only dance in battle for fun
>>528092497It's the least important part of her, you can be sure it will just be a battle ability for her.
(they even already mentionned her faction mechanic being about her Elixir https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avVyfLV6YXI&t=1228 )
Masque must always dance, h24
>>528091534Dancing is the central part of her and will be her main mechanic.
>>528101926Mid July at best.
Which races are complete at this point? Meaning they have all their units from the tabletop.
>>5281034838E only or including dubiously canon stuff from older editions?
>>528101992but they are the third faction!
>>528103742Beastmemes, Dark Elves and Bretonnians have all their 8E stuff then I believe. Chorfs and lizardmen are damn near complete. Weirdly enough I don't think Greenskins and Dwarfs are technically complete when it comes to all their 8E stuff.
>>528104254The only thing dorfs are missing from 8e are Bugman/Grimm and shieldbearer/oath stone mounts. Supplemental stuff like brewmasters and shard dragons are fake and gay
Greenskins only have a gorillion different warboss/big boss variants, which aren't really needed but would make greenskins so much better. Good thing we have cheats for those
VH in the histfag games are way fucking better than tww3
A reminder, factions that are complete and need nothing
>Ogre Kingdoms, Khorne, Nurgle, Tzeentch, Beastmen, Warriors of Chaos, Dwarfs, Empire
Factions that only need a rework because their army roster is strong and needs nothing else
>HElves, DElves, Skaven, Cathay, Lizardmen
Factions that need a DLC but not a rework to feel complete
>Kislev, Greenskins, Chorfs
Factions that need both a DLC and rework
>Bretonnia, Slaanesh, Norsca, Wood Elves, Vampire Counts, Vampire Coast, Tomb Kings
Notice that its drucucks and asurtards the most vocal about their faction needing DLC when their armies have everything they need besides artillery which they dont even need because they have fucking dragons and in DElves case other monsters.

Empire needs foot knights, a consolidation of their knights so you don't need to unify the whole empire to get all the types of knights at least for one LL, and Boris and the Middenland unique units
>>528045316 (OP)>Abilities granted by effects for summoned units (Summoned Skink Priest, Krell, and Summoned Keeper of Secrets) are now properly enabledwow finally, does this apply to garrison heroes?
>>528105537>Factions that need a DLC but not a rework to feel complete>Greenskins, ChorfsBruh
>>528106326They also need Dwarfs (Empire levies) High Elves (Empire levies) Unmounted Knights (All variants), the Imperial Dragon, Marius Leitdorf, Kurt Helborg, Ludwig Schwarzhelm, Valten, Valten (Adult), Valten (Old), Wizard Lord (All variants), Celestial Hurricanum, and many more units.
>>528105537Empire definetely will get a dlc because its ez money for CA.
Skaven doesnt need a rework. Their race mechanic works and is fun. Cathay needs all active dragons in game.
Greenies and Chorfs are not getting a dlc wtf are you high?
Bretonnia might get a free unit alongside its rework but thats it. WEs and Vcoast aint getting shit. Vcoast might get a small rework with Niggash dlc.
deck gunners are fucking based
Is this how you are supposed to play Ogres?
>>528107915No. Half your army supposed to be gnoblars.
>>528107915seems okay i would replace one leadbelcher with artillery to force the enemy to attack and get 2 cavalry instead of gorgers
>>528108129But gnoblars suck tho
>>528108972Okay I'll try that
>>528107915>no 20 red arrows all in the center while fast forward is onno
>>528107915If you can afford it, sure. Ogres have many different ways of playing and all viable.

What does "oreo" mean in the warhammer lore? I noticed both Dark Sorceresses and Damsels say it
>>528061269>>528062282What fun do Empire poke at themselves that Cathay doesn't?
Cathay is on Bretonnia levels of "these peasants are just absolute fodder, their lives are meaningless"

>>528113169Imperials are superstitious dipshits who deny the Skaven's existence, are generally dirty and grimy looking, the Empire has been sundered or near collapse multiple times (which is more than Cathay's one ti-oh yeah they retconned that to not offend chinks), had to be taught how to do proper magic by elves, had to be given gunpowder by dwarves, and pretty much every central/eastern Europe ethnicity that was in the sphere of the HRE gets made fun of specifically, from the money grubbing of the Dutch in the form of Marienburg to the grimness and weird customs of the slavs in the eastern part of the HRE in the form of Ostland. If you think any of this, including the Italian stereotypes I previously mentioned such as adding vowels to the end of every word to mock Italian accents, is comparable to Cathay (where they just retconned the only setback its ever had) you're delusional.
>>528113769Yeah but Cathay are openly puppets of another species
>they still havent fixed the bug where you get Fey Enchantress's quest item for free for no reason
no one plays Bretonnia at CA do they? :(
Bretonnia rework next year lads
>>528113980Yeah except that species is now the actual main focus of Cathay and they've made it clear that species is actually heckin' good for Cathay. There are innumerable examples of nobles, elector princes and even emperors being complete shitheads and used to mock the entire conceit of the HRE in the Empire. Nope, not the case in Cathay. Closest thing is vague mentions of Li Dao's secret police existing, but of course that secret service is near completely effective at rooting out Chaos so it's not really being criticized. We wouldn't want to remotely imply that China's historical or current government deserves to be mocked on a systematic level like the other human systems in the game. It's funny that you brought up Bretonnia because European feudalism is mocked much harder through that faction than China's Mandate of Heaven shit. Even having the Monkey King rule China as a light reference to the times China was ruled by outsiders was too far so he got retconned into being "allowed" to rule during that period.
>>528112907theres a stat bonus slider for this very reason

>>528117753I kinda hope they dont do a Bret rework they'll just do something op like "insta recruit grail knights" all I'd like is a warband mechanic for Bretonnia and it'd be fine

>Nothing wrong with either in the first place.Yea except they are useless om tjat state
>Chaos deserves nothing.I ain't getting shit as dwarfs
>>528112907I play hard on both but set the slider to 0. I agree that its no fun giving enemy units stat bonus' so that shitty AI units can fight good units thus giving the illusion that the AI is better.
>>528118520>source?My ass.
I want to play multiplayer campaign with my retarded niggas.
What happens if I set VH difficulty for myself and they set easy, how are AI bonuses treated?
>>528119050my friends and I play mp campaigns together. you cant set different campaign difficuly from the host but the battle difficulty is determined by the person battling. I.E if you have yours set to VH but your friend has it set to normal, in battles you start the enemy units will get the stat buffs but in battles started by him they wont. Im unsure what happens if he reinforces you tho.
>>528081257>blacks>typical nu dnd artstylelol
>>528085884Speaking of druchii, I have not played or bought the third game.
Did they finally add some stuff for dark elves, like missing lores of magic, at least?
>>528119231Thanks man.
I know that there is a small enemy leadership boost on battle if you set VH on campaign map which is why I am asking
I wish we got Spear Chukkas instead of Bolt Throwers for Greenskins...
>expected skirmishing savage orcs that would throw javelins
>got a shitty artillery piece that sees almost 0 usage on all Greenskin campaigns
>>528119778Nope. DEs got worse in wh3. They also dumbed down slave system and made it even more OP. Dark Elves are basically playing wh2 in wh3. Hero skills and Names of power are all balanced for wh2.
>>528119231battle difficulty does not buff ai stats only the slider does
>>528120204I was right to avoid WH3 then, but desu the setting lost the luster by the WH2 already.
I only ever liked dark elves anyways, still like my goth elf waifus and Mallykins.
Are there no not-mongols in Warhammer?
>>528120204>DEs got worse in WH3>Dark Elves are basically playing WH2 to WH3So they went from strong faction to... strong faction?

>>528120697theyre still strong now, only ones youd rather not pick is Malus for his start position or Hellebron for her shittier edicts, they still have a strong roster and good econ with most having interesting starts, they could use a rework sure but lords like Rakarth, Lokhir and Morathi are more interesting now than they were in WH2

>>528121515you're the one who seems confused here
>>528121458I agree which is why I think they need a rework but thats also why I listed the 3 I did. Morathi has a literal ease of access onto the donut so she starts killing the Asur quicker than Malekith and Hellebron who start further away, its actually nice being able to beat the HElves before they get too strong. Lokhir gets to have fun in Cathay and Black Ark spamming to maintain good momentum against the dragon siblings and Gelt with some Vilitch help and Rakarth gets to live out his monster hunting dream in Lustria. I think those 3 are different enough to be fun but they alongside the HElves really do need a change.

what type of voice should neferata have?
>>528123004I only play factions that have leadership debuff trait like Dread Incarnate and only recruit lords/heroes with it so rats don't exist as an army for me.
BTW that's why 20 Vampires are the ultimate doomstack, you can't even attempt to fight them.
Why is the map still so fucking laggy after all this time?
Sure, I ain't running the latest hardware, but battles for me under custom settings are fine. The world map is still 15-20 FPS unless I turn everything to zero. Any cheats that can help with this?
>>528128513Jennifer English. Idk if it will be a good fit but since Katarin is voiced by Devora Wilde and Golden Knight by Jen's gf, we should have her in the game as well.

You can stack so many different buffs in Total War: Troy. Your faction and units can have quite a high power ceiling if you are willing to press the right buttons.
>>528133012Which buttons should I press?
>>528132664For the trollhammer!
>>528133132You have to press the Divine Will and temple constructions buttons quite a few times. Hundreds, even.
>>528132664There is a grudge against all trolls in particular so the missiles literally gain consciousness midflight and go "fuck that guy (troll) in particular".
>>528132637in my mind she'd be putting on a pseudo-egyptian or hungarian accent not an american accent, all the vampire counts and/or tomb kings have something like that. also the romans in the first rome were americans and those are some of the most iconic lines in the series BITCH
How often do you use artillery in Greenskin armies?
>>528131916Cope Jen, you ugly bitch
>>528133336Like who? I'm not seeing any Americans in the voice cast for Rome 1, it's mostly Aussies for some reason.
I've Got it!
I will start a Grombrindal campaign and set an endgame Waargh crisis to trigger earlier than usual (around turn 40). That way, it is all but certain the other factions will eventually get rolled over, but there's no orc LL near Grombrindal so I'll have time to build up my forces to meet them when they arrive. Confedding the rest of the Dwarfs will be simple since they'll all probably be dead and I'll have all the grudges I will ever need!
>>528133481He's right, who fucking cares?
Which faction would give top tier blowjobs?
>>528132337why not nika futterman? she does lots of sexy raspy voices
>>528133676https://youtu.be/45GCULCtvWk?t=86, also the famous GODS BE PRAISED guy who announces the victories.
The guy who did most of the general speeches and the Julii intro might be an aussie putting on an American accent, you can kinda hear it in the way he pronounces things.
>>528134050You're right it's obviously a mix, I find American accents really jarring in historic things personally and I'm not a fan, they don't fit.
>>528133981Slaanesh purely because of their steeds' mouths having the literal shapes for it.
>>528076414tabletop โ videogame
>>528134293i think the american accent genuinely fits the romans better than an RP accent does and reflects much better how the romans saw themselves and how others saw them, the guy doing the brutii voice sounds super bloodthirsty and it fits well. if anything the greeks should have the british accent if you want people to understand in a heartbeat the relationship between rome and greece and how they viewed each other, but instead they usually do these terrible vaguely eastern sounding accents to try to sound greek. in a perfect world these shows would have actual spoken latin instead of doing either.
>2 years since 6.2 dropped
>not a single mention of the "improved AI"
>>528134702The changes aren't forced, you have to enable them through end game scenarios tab and since most people play with the entire thing disabled they also disable the improved AI.
>>528134659>i think the american accent genuinely fits the romans better than an RP accent doesI disagree with that, the American accent is very much a modern one. Just get an Italian with a strong accent speaking English to voice them. Or even more kino, have it in Latin and just have subtitles but the normies would hate that.
>>528128513>what type of voice should neferata have?Something sexy.
>>528134965correct, but the romans came out of nowhere and dominated the mediterranean which fits the moderness of the american accent. the romans also famously were super insecure about their own culture due to how recent it was while at the same time viewing themselves as salt of the earth people when compared to the supposedly overly fancy and pretentious greeks, which i think fits the american accent super well and could be contrasted well with a british greek accent. to do something even funnier you could have the upper class romans with a transatlantic accent to showcase how that class desperately wanted to imitate the greeks and their culture. ultimately i agree in a perfect world they'd just do actual latin, it's not like it's some lost language, it was even spoken actively by people until just 100 years ago.
>>528135424Catholic priests all speak it, though with Ecclesiastical pronunciation rather than Classical. Latin is a great language, I've learnt bits but planning on properly starting soon.
Heavy armour > medium armour > light armour > no armour
>>528135568i actually have a degree in classics and a minor in latin. good luck, it's a fun but very difficult language, although not as hard as you'd think when compared to any of the languages outside of europe. ecclesiastical is very different from classical pronunciation, it would probably be better to just teach an actor from scratch than have them listen to a priest's ecclesiastical latin and thus pronounce latin with what is basically a semi-modern italian accent.
>>528134954This is such a CA move

>>528134954>>528136129as good as the update is, this really is such a big mistake
most new players won't mess with campaign settings much, and if they do they aren't going to know what they're looking at, and even if they do it's misleading being packaged together with the end game scenarios
not to mention many players just don't read patch notes either
the ai settings should be on by default imo, or at least easier to see
>>528081257>WE WUZ WILD MAGES AND SHIIEEEET
>>528136929They said they'll change the position of those options in the hotfix.
I wonder how many people who previously complained think the AI is all of a sudden much better while playing against old AI.
>>528136929It was on by default for me.
Dwarfs getting irondrakes at T2 is total bullshit.
>>528136929The smarter AI setting is on by default, the minor faction one is not. Pretty sure endgame scenarios are also on by default which it falls under, and most players are just going to start the game with all that one.
>>528134954They are only now adding campaign options?
Always said that total war games lack modularity, compared to something like Crusader Kings 2 where you can disable shit you don't want.
Warhammer should have optional unit caps, among other things.
Also, custom battle scenarios for all total war games should be expanded, so that you can control both sides (if you want, and also bring back hotseat mode), place units in any parts of that map to set up different battel scenarios and so on. Also, use any faction units when play as any faction in custom battles, at least, if not even for the campaigns for historical games (maybe area of recruitment system).
Basically, a lot of shit needs to be done to turn total war into proper playing-with-toy-soldiers sandbox.
>>528137416It is on by default, but if you disable the end game crisis completely you also disable the improved AI.
>kill 4 manlet armies and finally start approaching black crag
>game softlocks on thorgrims turn
thanks game very cool
the ai managing to put up a fight for 50 turns is a good sign atleast
>>528137606Yeah, only now. Only Sofia games (troy, and Pharaoh with Dynasties especially) had some modularity in them, it's Warhammer's turn now. Better late than never. Mixer mod also let you set how much faction potential minor factions should get, meaning more cheats to go toe to toe with major factions.

>>528137484Skaven get Warpfire Throwers at T2 and nobody ever called that bullshit. How come?
>>528139047>black smokeMALLOBAUDE CONFIRMED
>>528139052Warpfire thrower range is like 1/3 of Irondrake range? But honestly Irondrake is not that op and pretty easy to countet (range shit/flying shit/cav)
>>528139052Skaven AI loses to everyone, I rarely see them with more than clanrats or slaves, while Dawi are always painting the map. Skaven units are made of paper so you can easily push through and kill their ranged. Regardless complaining about irondrakes is dumb. Gyros are the real early game cancer if they get spammed if you're a faction without a good counter.
>>528137484just shoot them dude
>>528139564They have the exact same range early on when it probably matters the most.
>>528139719Hard to say, it probably depends who you play as. In many of my vanilla campaigns Skaven trun out to be a major force while Dwarfs gets double teamed by Skaven+Greenskins.
I masturbated to skinks today... I have conflicting feelings about it
>>528139052Warpfire Throwers are really only good at mulching gobbos or other skaven infantry, they've got shit range and very little armor piercing and can pretty easily be routed with any pressure. Every faction can either outrange them, send early cav into their rear (later on dragons or terror causing monsters), or just laugh off the damage with 60+ armor.
>>528140361They literally have "kink" in the name, it's what they were made of.
Anyway, once you're done with the beginner stuff, you can join me in the saurus pool.
>>528137484They're one of the easiest units to deal with in the entire game. A small unit size short ranged zero-melee capabilities slow unit.
If you're actually letting them shoot, you're genuinely shit at the game. You need literally just one unit, not even a good one, to contact them to remove them entirely from the battlefield.

>>528140620Same thing can be done to Irondrakes.
Also let's not forget how Skaven are supposed to fight their battles - by ambush attacking which increases Warpfire Throwers effectiveness, something Dwarfs can't do without prep/setup.
>>528133879Me

>She should be in the game because a girl she knows is also in the game
Anyone far into a campaign with the new AI options? How strong are the top factions? Noticeable, or a nothing burger? I'm early into a Slaanesh campaign and I don't notice any difference.
>>528141913you probably turned it off on accident there was a considerable difference and i got war declarations on me unlike ever before
How is ca going to fit all their promised characters if there are only 3-4 dlcs left max including DoW after slaanesh? Richard Aldridge said dlc goes through 2027 and when he confirmed Egrimm flc a few months ago was coming in a major patch and said not to expect flc characters in mid size patches like .1 and .2 patches. How can they fit all the promised ones?
Promised characters:
>Li Dao
>Yin-Yin
>Nefereta
>Red Duke
>Egrimm
>Boris Todbringer
>Thanquol
Plus the hinted at characters that they did not promise and just hinted.
>Vardek Crom
>Valten
>Joseph Bugman
>Monkey King
I mean there are some obvious ones that would have to come at the same time like the Cathay character all coming together and Nefereta's dlc would have Red Duke flc while Todbringer would come the last Empire dlc. Yet how do you fit all these into 3ish dlcs?
>>528141913you're crazy if you dont notice a difference I tried an Empire campaign and those random dwarfs near Kemmler AND Elsepth declared on me
>>528142590>open Khuresh>open up ind>open up realms of chaosstill plenty of room
>>528142590get this, you and all the other autistic posters who keep listing things CA has supposedly promised, they can just not do them. absolutely nothing they've said is a guarantee and it was not a binding contract about what they need to add to the game.
>>528142590>3-4 DLCs leftThere's only one DLC left then the game is getting abandoned
>>528142073>>528142615I checked my settings and the new options were turned off. This is because it's tied to end game scenarios being enabled, which I had those disabled. Brb restarting with all the things on.
>>528142792I am not worried about map placement. Just wondering how they can cram everyone into 3 or 4 more dlcs. If one of the characters is the 3rd character in tides of torment then I could see a way to fit them all. If not I do not know to do it.
>>528142590Nobody knows how many DLCs are left. Also the work Birts did wasn't deleted, it was transfered onto Sofia so who knows how many prestarted DLCs projects they've ended up with? They currently have plans to make DLCs till at least 2027 but times might change. For example if people will still buy new content after two years in similar numbers they'll continue in making more DLCs because why not? Easy money.
>>528142590Yin-Yin and MK are heroes.
Red Duke and Boris aren't being changed.
Vardek, Valten, Bugman, are not coming.
>>528142615Rookie mistake. Should've bribe them with technology.
>>528143048Oh yeah I think they're gonna have to start just doing lord packs I dont think theres any units left
We are going to receive an FLC lord in December.
>>528143648Yes because that's when Tides of Torment comes out
>>528143648>December arrives>/tg/ at portas>Drum roll over CA big announcements>We are proud to unveil, our next big project.....Alien Isolation 2>Trailer go as expected, everyone awaits the big reveal>and now for total war.....a FLC lord! A halfling hero for empire!!!>Thank you all, see you next yearIts gonna go down like this
>>528142590Look at your list and see when they were promised
Only promised in Warhammer 1 time frame.
>Red DukePromised in 1 and 2.
>TodbringerPromised in all 3 games lifetimes by devs.
>NeferetaPromised only in during Warhammer 3.
>Egrimm>ThanquolAllegedly contractoravly obligated to add which seems to be supported by recent Gamesworkshop blogs.
>Li Dao>Yin-YinSo going by that if they had to cut two promised characters it would be Todbringer and the Duke. You can fit everyone else easily if that happens. Hinted characters are not guaranteed and should not be expected.

>>528143648Unless it is releasing with a DLC patch we aren't. Big boy Rich just said four months ago on video that they are only releasing FLC legendary lords with DLC patches.
rome 2 or shogun 2 which one is better nowadays
>>528147259They are at least 2-3 FLC lords behind though and we can say that because they had no problems adding new content to Shadows of Change for free.
- CoC FLC is missing unless we count Be'Lakor, but he was in the game before therefore shouldn't count,
- Chorf FLC is missing,
- SoC FLC is missing,
- Preorder Ogres don't and shouldn't count.
>>528147421Shogun 2 no brainer
Even if you aren't a weaboo
>>528147421depends on the time period and place you want to play in
>>528147770Belakor is the FLC for CoC. They even stated that in the blog post for it since they originally had zero plans to put him in immortal empires. When Richard mentioned DLC patches only for FLC LLs. He mentioned Egrimm by name as a character that is going to be released in one. He is the missing SoC FLC. Ogres were launch day of course they don't count as a missing FLC lord with them since there isn't a FLC lord on day one.
Bretonnia was an FLC race.
Malekith's helmet looks goofy.
>>528148820>Belakor is the FLC for CoCSounds more like a quick excuse given at that time but if that's the case, so be it.
>>528149085Yes, because on tabletop they have almost no units so it was impossible to do DLC for them. Especially since Brettonia has every unit from every tabletop edition

Only redditors care about boris
>>528150060That is funny because reddit is the ONLY place not asking for Todbringer.
I sometimes post on Reddit and I want Boris Todbringer as an FLC lord.
>>528150580we were able to reclaim Boris from empire redditfags because he was memed by Tariff into being Alex Jones like character and they hate it
>>528150060Reddit is probably the reason we still do not have todbringer or nefereta. They hate both characters for unknown reasons. They won't shut up about demanding Elves DLC and wanting more Lizardmen. It doesn't help that CA posts on reddit and always seems to give into their demands.

Did anyone else notice an increased occurence of AI blobs? I'm on a thorgrim game and grimgor, wurrzag and kairos all blobbed hard, coming at me with 4-6 armies each. Nice to have a real challenge for once, but dwarf deeps are OP so I didn't lack money at least. Karl blobbed even harder, but he won't attack me any time soon so I'm not worried about him.
>>528154557BETRAYERS
BETRAYERS ALL AROUNNND
Quick question: What is meant to feel powerful when you are playing High Elves?
Just mega elites like Swordmasters/Phoenix Guard/Sisters? What low tier stuff isn't trash?
legendheads, its manscaping time!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asv7bxyLuJU
>>528147421see
>>528148507but also, as much as I love the time period of Rome 2 I just prefer Shogun 2 gameplay-wise, Rome 2 feels slower in battles, and I'm spoiled by Warhammer where every turn feels like there's clear objectives and optimal things to do but I could never wrap my head around what to do in Rome 2's early game, and there's so many factions with slighter differences in roster availability as opposed to the much more colorful "we buff gunpowder" and "cavalry" and "daikatana" factions of Shogun 2.
>>52815622919 lother sea guards of course, the peak ASVR performance
>>528156229Dragons, Sisters and mutes
>>528156229Tier 0 Spearmen and Archers should be more than enough for the early-mid game. You can get Lothern Sea Guard (Shields) and White Lions for the mid game if you want.
Of course, Sisters of Avelorn are mega powerful and then Swordmasters of Hoeth and Phoenix Guard are great melee infantry if you want them.
Dragons and Phoenix are also great if you are willing to micro them.
Who will be the High Elves of the next Total War game?
>>528156334This stomps shit like greenskins and rats but so does anything
When Chaos is coming at you with high armour and silver shields that build is trash
>>528156354>>528156421I never really like how slowly SEMs deal damage, like cav can murder multiple archers while a monster is still rolling around in a single unit of them
Maybe not being an SEM fan is why HEs aren't clicking for me
>>528156287>>528148507both setting are attractive to me i just wanted to know which is better in terms of gameplay nowadays. Ive only played warhammer so far, so i wanted to pick something with a different flavor during the steam sale
>>528156229Sisters of Avelorn, high level lords/heroes like Dragon-riding Archmages and Nobles on Eagles. Your elite melee infantry lack shields and it can be tough to get value out of them. The humble spearmanii or silverin guard are the reliable frontline, halberd/greatswordmanii are like scalpels, precision tools that are meant for specific, delicate tasks and if used wrong get destroyed. If you haven't wiped the druchii off the map I wouldn't even think about using those units, AP ranged annihilates them. To be honest just having a massive economy and spamming stacks of silverin guards, sisters and basic archers, with some dragons, and recruiting lords/heroes at higher levels, is the helf endgame.
Did they shared some clips of throgg's new voice over already?
>>528156725If cavalry is your thing then I am pretty sure that High Elves get Dragon Princes which are pretty respectable.
>>528155498Proof? The blog wasn't that clear. It sounded like they will find the weaker ones over time to buff, but the time frame is unclear. It's pretty damn shitty that almost all legendary/unique items are now worse than blue items, even if we consider the set bonuses as a part of them. It is a fun system , the rework is awesome, but I hope they pick up their pace.
>>528156862I feel like cav is in a weird place across all factions because there's so much powercreep like Rot Knights and Crushers
>>528156751if you want somewhat similar faction diversity to warhammer you'll want to go rome 2, i have no fucking clue what that anon is talking about with shogun 2 faction diversity, outside of one unique unit they are all literally identical except for "shiitake clan gives +5 melee attack to yari samurai." in rome 2 obviously greek factions have similar units to each other but they're completely different from carthage, which is different from rome, which is different from the gauls, etc.
>>528156725Helf damage comes from having 8+ units of archers focusing down anything in range, dragons are mainly for terror-routing and intercepting enemy cav, which you should do while the enemy is in range of those archers, so the dragon can hold them (though the AI will eventually break free) while you rain arrows on them.
>>528156229>What low tier stuff isn't trash?spearmen can hold good
archers can shoot good
rangers can sweep what the spearmen are holding

Shogun 2's combat still holds up well but the campaign is very outdated and missing too many features for it to be fun for me.
For multiplayer, either are good.

They lacked armour. You can also fight against Dwarfs, be annoyed and figure out why. It's because armour's good, and they have it.

>azazel (and siggy) still missing the slaanesh hero and new units makes them way less fun than the others comparatively, picking any divided WoC kinda sucks but especially azazel since you have less tools than any other WoC LL, and the UD roster already has AP in spades and decent speedy units so he's pretty redundant, although I do enjoy the Slaanesh playstyle more than any other gayos deity>Thrott is very unfun now, Kislev was already a bastard to fight before the rework, even before t0 halberds, now they're unbelievably annoying, inb4 just ambush bro>Azhag feels a little worse since Kislev is stronger, although the availability of squigs and pump wagons helps a bit since getting stuck in ASAP is the move for him vs them early on. Dawi got a bit stronger too and Karak Kadrin can be ruthless bringing slayer stacks on turn 10. Also just tired of fighting chorfs, his campaign feels like Grimgor (West), bring Neferata already so she can hold the chokepoint city of Silver Pinnacle doesn't have to deal with them every game by turn 40>Skrag's mechanics are actually fucking busted strong and he deserves S tier imo, I tried to have a tall campaign with him but he rolls absolutely everything

>>528163602There wonโt be one.
>>528163602Disappointment, probably. The problem I have with them is that zombie blob + heals are just so effective that I can't help but play them in the most time-consuming but effective way that lets you counter waaaghs, ambushes, any bullshit the enemy brings - even artillery isn't too big of a deal unless they have like multiple dreadquake mortars. I do like the raise dead and battle marker system, and I find blood kisses + bloodline lords and the tech tree pretty acceptable, if not good, and those are the first things that might get changed instead of the roster or base gameplay to fix the bigger issue I have.

Is there a way to get all the expensive as fuck DLC for Total War Warhammer 3 without paying the 200โฌ price for all of them? Hate doing campaigns when half of the enemies I face I can't even play to figure out how they work.
>>528163602That depends on if Neferata is in this DLC or not. I have vastly different expectations depending on if she is in this DLC, the next DLC with Red Duke FLC, or a Bloodlines DLC.
>>528154975Where did they get that picture of me!
>>528164838Yeah it is called wait for game sales. Luckily for you the steam Summer sale is coming up starting on the 26th.
>>528164838you impregnate the game
>>528162082Probably. Anyway this is a good thing for a more cheap troops. And it was changed a bit as I remember between wh2 and wh3. I used to deploy a wraths for mp and now they are feels more fragile
>>528164969Kinda looks like advisor.
>>528164734Yes, Dogs of War is likely to be FLC since most of their units were added in the monogod DLCs, at least the ones that were missing. The FLC will probably include three lords, a hero, four to five Tilea units, and, if we're lucky, some Halfling content plus wizard lords.
Valten is interesting, though. I have no idea why they included the image and text in the patch following Thrones of Decay's main patch. It's very suspicious.

>>528167859I doubt they're going to throw those teasers into smaller patches anyway
>>528156229why do people keep making posts like this? are you not capable of looking at a roster and seeing what looks useful? does it not occur to you to look at what you are fighting and to take whatever is good against that?

What are going to be the 5 units for Slaanesh?
Confirmed so far.
>Monstrous Infantry
Champion of Slaanesh
>Cavalry
Pleasureseekers
Obviously Slaangors are going to happen which will give Slaanesh a second monstrous infantry unit. Which means they still need at least 1 single entity unit as a centerpiece unit. What would be the 5th unit after? Obviously they aren't going to do 3 monstrous infantry units for Slaanesh.
>>528172340So Dwarfs like them thick
>>528172340>Boy seamanSounds fun, I'm in.
AI is smarter with the new update, but fighting endless stacks of random shit Tretch spawns is annoying. They're not hard to beat, but they're annoying.
On another note, AI Chorfs seem to steal seats far less. I've never had a game where by turn 30 they never stole from someone else and even comfortably started expanding into tier 2. Maybe someone complained to CA and they disabled it, or reduced the likelihood. I don't mind it, it was annoying.
>>528172993Slaangors are monstrous, but they're classified as standard infantry.
For the SEM:
Options include: Preyton, Basilisk, Archfiend, Beastfiends, or Dread maw
5th unit:
Anointed of slaanesh, Centigors of Slaanesh, Painseekers, Chaos ogres of Slaanesh, or a Great Chaos spawn of slaanesh with a new name (Like they did with the bloodbeast of Khorne)
