>No *lves
Well done anon, here are your Charlemagnes.
This is the first time I look up Fate Charlemagne, I'm actually surprised he was allowed to stay a guy.

>>530685771
Blessed be!
Still can't believe Lizards are actually getting a fucking update, honestly thought they would be left as they are.

>More Elves

Doomchuds how are we feeling?

To the people in the old threads that were so SO sure we're not getting "any more stuff for the High Elves" and particularly the guy I remember chewing my head off for even remarking about it.
This is for you:

>>530686157
they are transitioning

>>530685595
i will after all the cathay focused dlc are released

>>530686157
this one was weird to me, to specify changes instead of just more content.

>>530686157
I think CA figured out the Nightmaw being a wind spell is retarded after reddit complained about it and now he'll get an actual model with animations, but that shouldn't delay the thing by two whole months.

>>530686320
Like an Icon of Sin at this point.

>NEFY DLC CONFIRMED
>WILL HAVE A LESBIAN VAMPIRE HARM MECHANIC

>>530685515 (OP)
Why would they release Nererata and her mandmaidens when they already have Isabella with her vampires, and the everqueen with her handmaidens also?

>>530686395
It means all those videos they have been dripfeeding us weren't even real.

>no Yin-Yin
Shan't be buying your DLC, CAkeks.

These fucking "DLCs" barely have content, I don't understand what the fuck is there to delay

>nonchalantly announcing the third faction instead of with a cool trailer that foreshadows it during the first half to then reveal Aislinn in a glorious and epic way
I hate this company so fucking much, mostly because this I just described would have been something they would have done during wh2.

>>530686276
Shorts are complete

>loremasterofsotek sperged ao hard about fimir noble being a hero instead of a lord that they actually went back and delayed the dlc for him
Fuck this fat nigga

Wait so how is that "leak" looking now? It's looking like there's some fucking truth to it?

>>530686520
They'll probably change Isabella's vampire buffs. It happened before.
>Chorfs stole DE slave system
>Yuan Bo stole HE trade spying.

>>530686675
I didn't want more dorfs
I just didn't want more elfshit

So are character-only DLCs soft confirmed?

>>530686689
>NORSCA NEED TO BE LESS NORSCA
>AAAAAAAAHHH

>>530686594
One DLC per year.
ONE.
PER.
YEAR.

Seriously, what the fuck happened with the rate and quality of Warhammer 2 DLCs?

>Pivot theory was real
They hated Legend because he told them the truth

Oh christ, the stupid fucking bird chariot is coming in. The endtimes are trult upon us.

Well, the robot horse already made it pretty grim, so whatever...

>>530686434
What if merewyrm was also a wind spell and not a unit? We don't know how many more bad decisions they took when designing new mechanics they now want to change.
Remember Skulltaker was their first dlc and people weren't happy about it.

pretty grim honestly.

>>530686727
No lmao. Fucking CA doesnt even know what they want to do next.

>>530686727
By Christmas 2025 you will be coming to /twg/ to discuss your most anticipated Space Marine chapters.

Ok, someone explain to me who's Aislinn and what did he do in the lore that's cool and makes him stand out as a LL.

>>530686812
Yeah pretty much.

>>530686817
ONE lordpack dlc per year.
Literal mod-level content.

I didn't know there's so many legend dickriders in /twg. Shameful display.

>>530686650
Remembet when we had specially made illustrations just to HINT that Vampire Coast was coming?

It wad a different time, back rhen CA felt downright smug about the content they were bringing us...

>>530686849
>legend
Who? How many tournaments has he won? What's his rank on Total Tavern?

>>530687043
He represents the White man's glorious mastery of the seas and subsequent conquest of the lesser races.

>>530687123
>I don't know why there's so many fans of [Most popular Total War celeb] in a [Total War thread]
What???

>>530687123
Half are ironic shitposters, the other half are braindead reddit refugees

>>530687043
He is racist, he sacked Marienburg and brought it's elves population back to donut. Quite often he raids Norsca

>>530687043
Helf lokhir. Navy guy, good duelist.
That’s literally it.

So, what, it's just some /pol/tard on a boat chasing easy targets?

>>530687237
Legend during last years couldn't get a fifth of Clio's concurrent views on streams. Clio is the REAL most popular Total War celeb now.

>>530687123
>so many
90% of those posts are by an autistic indian man

At this point point just make all WH1 content free as part of WH3. The thing is 10 years old and pretty much just a glorified DLC for 3.

Is this how TCALUK want people to remember the 25th anniversary of To'al Woah?

>>530687378
What else is he supposed to do?

40k waiting room

>>530687453
>Clio
WHO???

>>530686883
Land Ships have already ruined the game, too.

>>530687043

Neferata seems to have been confirmed as a solo DLC.
What lords do you want to see get their own individual DLC?

>Dookie fags on suicide watch
>Histoid fags on suicide watch
>Rat fags on suicide watch
>Yin Yin fags on suicide watch
Asur bros I am tired of all this winning

Ok, I got most of the rage out of me.
Let’s talk more serious.
They said the info in the slaanesh and norsca videos is no longer valid. What changes are you expecting?
>fimir noble promoted to lord or replaced with fimir matriarch
>nightmaw as a LH instead of a spell
No clue what they would change with the slaanesh shit

>>530687123
it is genuinely one brown man, the rest are just shitposting as a gag

>mfw reading the NEWS
what did yfw when you saw it?

Im glad they waited so long to not only delay the dlc but to just go "btw its high elves lol get hype!" thanks CA you cocksuckers going back to your old ways again

>>530687518
Something to stand out? Raiding Norsca is not an accomplishment, it's a passtime, and sacking Marienburg is hardly that impressive.

>>530687625
Don't tell me this is the most he ever does.
That fucking text talks more about everyone else BUT Aislinn. And what little there is of Aislinn is him betraying someone and then dying.

>>530687553
IT TAKES THEM 1 FUCKING YEAR TO ADD 3 LLS (who are all just rehashes of previous LLs)
Do you thinks it's possible for 40K to be above 0/10?

>>530687627
All of them.

>>530687507
WH1 is the best twwh game

>single apologetic blogpost about needing to do better
Tbf, its the perfect capture of CA’s essence for the last decade

>>530686817
What I’m confused by is how CA can afford that. I know it’s just a few slavs working on dlc now but can CA really afford their wages if the dlc rate is this slow?

>>530687737

>>530687690
We already know it's going to be two Cathay factions instead of Slaanesh and Norsca. No idea why they even pretended that they had anything other than leftover Lords of Shan Yang content.

>>530687737
Not surprised, we've been dooming about a delay ever since they silently moved end of June third race reveal to July. I am at least slightly impressed we are getting siege tweaks.

>>530687737
They manage to surprise and disappoint in innovative new ways

>>530687043Killed a bunch of Hallings for being hungry. Also used to have a right hand made who once fucked a dwarf.

>>530685515 (OP)
With great autism I have constructed a list of "I can't believe it's not in the game yet." This is everything that can be said to have had rules for most of the game's existence, that is to say they got rules in 4th or 5th edition and they also got rules in 7th or 8th edition.

Wood Elves
Nothing

So, what's definitely not coming at this point?

>>530687927
And also right after the whole Hyenas fiasco which must have costed them an immense amount of money. Honestly no matter how I look at it, CA is just delivering Ls left and right nonstop, I'm kinda bewildered Sega even tolerates them at this point.

I like how snarky they are at the end "yes we know we kept you waiting for weeks heres the third faction btw lol enjoy this wet fart bye"

Real talk, what could they possibly do with sieges at this point to fix them that they didn’t/couldn’t do with the effort, time, and budget of going from WH2 to 3?

>>530687782
Different teams
There is 20 slavs working on dlc for wh3

>>530687453
Sad but true. I don’t get it

>>530686817
Hyenas happened.
Never let them forget.

Why not just make an Empire DLC in the style of Champions of Chaos?
Most people would buy it.

>>530688039
>Also used to have a right hand made who once fucked a dwarf.

>>530688072
Beastman should have Moonclaw why isnt he in yet?

>>530687769
He is just worse Lokhir. Gonna buff eagle claw bolt throwers(Sea Cutters are confirmed basically)

>>530687828
>pretends Zhao Ming's leaked updated faction mechanic is new DLC
sure thing buddy

>>530688039
>right hand made
Is that meant to be a mate or maid?

>>530688181
Add traps, force armies to make ladders, make settlement maps a little bigger.

>>530687927
If the biggest video game company in the country runs out of money, it's not a problem for them. It's a problem for the taxpayer.

Are people shitposting or was Nightmaw actually a fucking wind spell? There’s no way CA are that retarded right? Was he at least supposed to be like Krell?

>>530688379
>STILL deny the pivot
Legend haters are more pathetic than Legend dickriders at this point

I don't often frequent these threads, what's this about a pivot?

>>530688472
that's not how burden of proof thing works buddy

>>530688087
Warhammer has literally been the only thing keeping them afloat for most of the last decade at this point and they still can't stop constantly fucking up the only thing they aren't losing money on.

CA is just incompetent from top to bottom, a total clusterfuck of a video game developer barely coasting along on past glories. Which seems to be the default these days, to be fair.

>>530688445
5m means shit

>>530688181
>what could they possibly do with sieges
Fixing sieges is extremely easy.

1. Set towers to prioritize artillery capable of damaging them. This eliminates scenarios where you tank the towers with a single lord that cannot be hit while your arty destroys the towers.

2. Remove assladders entirely from the game. Simply delete them and the wall climbing mechanic. Now, you have to build siege towers to get on the walls.

3. Allow artillery to be placed on walls.

Sieges fixed, no need to tank me.

>>530685515 (OP)
Walking trees? Dawi, to me!

>>530688562
Legend leaked a dlc in the past, people chimped out, CA has been taking forever to release dlc

>>530688445
Thanks UK-anons for paying for this game

>>530688675
Hire yourself at CA.

>>530688181
Huge fixes that they need to fix
>you need monsters to destroy a gate no more skavenslaves destroying a massive gate
>you need to build ladders
>fix pathfinding and fucking decade long bugs like the gate bug
thats it if pathfinding and the walls werent useless sieges would be pretty good but its so fucking frustrating to play them it feels like your own units are fighting you

>>530688562
>Legend leaked the original planned DLC after SoC (Lords of Shang Yang, basically a Cathay dickriding for 20 bucks)
>It was so shit the backlash forced CA to scrap it
>This tho fucked up their 3-4 years updates plans, causing more and more time between each DLC

khalida and neferata should

sorry fantasoys, but more devs were needed to work on Medieval 3, so enjoy your delay

>>530688643
chill out retard, less than 10% of CA works on wh3 nowadays, its that simple, WH3 is no longer priority

>>530687737
Annoyed. I was looking forward to reinstalling sometime early next month.

>>530688659
Yeah but every year they get subsidised millions in tax write-offs for making video games that represent "British culture" even though WH3 is clearly a fantasy universe. I did a deep dive into this during Hyena's shitshow but I've changed computers since then.

>>530688402
>>530688308
Meant to say "right hand man".

>His men respect him. The Champion of the Guard; Haisplinn's right hand man, respects him even more. This is Lahaven Ramjewel, notorious libertine and rake. Ramjewel is a Elf of good family, but estranged and disgraced as a result of an much publicised incident with a drunken Dwarf mariner

I am literally Greasus irl.

>>530688643
>CA is just incompetent from top to bottom
Nah, there are still plenty of talented devs at CA.
It's just sadly never the ones who make decisions. Every CA failure always stinks of "completely detached idiot who barely knows what product he is even selling gives terrible orders to a middle management that scrambles to fulfill it in the most haphazard manner possible".

>>530687627
I can see Monkey King being a candidate. If they do another pack that includes a Cathay Lord it would in theory be one of the remaining dragons so it leaves him out to be released solo.

>>530688925
>hes a man whore that fucks dwarfs
what an interesting person to have as an LH

>>530688851
>you need to build ladders
This will never ever happen, because it requires an immense number of animation work for all the infantry in the game. Easier to just delete wallclimbing from the game and make siege towers an exclusive means of getting on the walls.

>>530688181
Just combine Medieval 2 and Attila sieges

>>530688675
Also, make it so you can only get out of walls through towers like the good old days, this way you can focus on defending them when outnumbered
The way it works today is cancer

>>530688925
NEVER ASK AN ELF SUPREMACIST THE RACE (OR GENDER) OF HIS PARTNER

>>530688925
>drunken Dwarf mariner
M-male or female???

>Fantasy fags going through their first game abandoment
Cute, you get used to it once you grow up though
Now, we await 40k to restart the cycle

>>530689056
why not just add ladders to be "built" in the pre siege screen the same place where you build siege and rams? and then have them just deploy automatically when a unit reaches the walls but yeah you're probably right

The problem is also what if you destroy the siege tower? It'll just end up like the old games where you destroyed their siege equipment then the AI just runs around in circles getting murdered by towers

>>530689056
Do you even play the game?

>playing as elspeth first time
>following her questline
>"you gotta defeat these 3 armies to weaken the big final fight"
>pass turn
>all 3 armies got killed by somebody else
lel
nice campaign CA

>>530689056
there's a mod on the workshop that literally adds buildable ladders that they walk to the walls, the animations are already in the game

>>530689056
I don't understand why all infantry needing animation for ladders means they can't be something you have to build

>>530688869
>Histfag cope
It's 40k
You know it
I know it
That is where money at
Histfags need to finally understand Medieval will NOT sell as Sega hopes it sells

>>530689064
This

>>530689210
you know as well as I do what is the answer

>>530689056
Oh, are you imaging the change to ladders coming with them being physical siege equipment you can see them carrying? They'd still work just like they do now.

>>530689210
Shaved

You know, Aislinn sounds dumb on paper, but maybe they can make it work by making a mechanic that revamps the overseas Helf settlements like the citadel of Dusk, Fortress of Dawn and Tower of the Sun, and make them globally relevant as far as seafaring factions are concerned. Add to that Lothern, Cothique and even Marienburg and you'd get pretty decent map coverage.

Perfect for a newly reworked Norsca and even for the Vampire Coast to have more troubles at ses making their sailing interesting.

>>530689210
Dwarfs famously don't let women outside their holds unless escorted out, much less out into the sea they are distrustful of, and even if they did, said woman would be locked in and fortified in the safest part of the ship, triple so if there are fucking elves around.

So no, there's no way in hell it was a female dwarf. Captain Long Drong of the slayer pirates has never even seen a woman. It's canon.

>>530687627
Toddy.

>>530689661
>worldroots mechanic but its high elf ports and he can teleport to them
cool

>>530689661
idk finubar is much cooler and would fit the theme too but I'll take it

I seriously don't get how TCALUK can be this blind to the demands of their playerbase. Literally everyone and their dog is asking for Yin-Yin and they refuse to even acknowledge her existence. Sure, she's a meme character, but she's also a meme character that would sell. Time and time again TCALUK just prove that they absolute HATE making money.

Early-game Khone would be really boring if you have to stop outside every major city to build siege towers

>Sea Lord Aislinn
Is there going to be sea battle in the game? No? Then what's the point?

>>530688728
Well that was a roast.

>>530689876
Nobody gives a fuck except a solitary aquafag.

>>530689745
>There is no way in hell it was a female dwarf
Bardin Goreksson's daughter is an engineer working on a ship.

>>530688643
>>530688945
if you want to see how bad things can really get take a look at civ 7 where they had some former fortnite devs design the game with treadmill unlocks and shit

Only 2 unit lost

>>530689876
One guy spamming it here is not "literally everyone". Look at reddit and discord to see what the majority actually want.

>>530689897
One faction losing their steamroll memes is a fair price to get better sieges for everyone

>>530689995
Succulent cope, my peach. In reality: everyone wants Yin-Yin in the game for the memes.

>>530689876
It's 2025, 2026 by the time they actually release another DLC, and we still don't have Neferate, Thanquol, or Yin-Yin (or even Li Dao, he honestly sounds pretty cool to me too).

Instead they give us this fucking loser. They also avoided the big obvious one to pick for Norsca that was Mortkin in exchange for a guy who should have just been one of Tamurkhan's lieutenants. Dechala... is alright, I guess. But I think I saw much more clamoring for The Masque anyway.

Who the fuck decides who gets in and who doesn't?

>>530689876
yin-yin would not be an anime girl so the one faggot spamming this shit would be disappointed, just like everyone else who would be disappointed because she's a literally who

>>530690287
Sega, when they decided that its time for CA to stop fucking around and make a new tw game
Your game will never be finished the way you want it

>>530689897
Every Khorne faction starts with a monster I think so just make it so that monsters can destroy walls or something

>>530690317
Its funny how people can drive themselves to a frenzy over the headcanon that there is a character in warhammer who looks and behave like Acqua

>>530688181
just delete them entirely you cant fix sieges with magic in the game

Well, now that any hope of Bret rework is lost i can finally start a Repanse campaign to get the cheevo.

CA will probably add sea caravans for HEs. Which would help tons of other races as well.

>Slaanesh will be the centerpiece faction of the DLC like how the other 3 chaos factions were for theirs.
>Norsca got a video reveal at Skulls
>Blog talks about how Norsca and Slaanesh during playtesting didn't meet expectations.
>Aislinn announced at the tail end of the blog in an "oh by the way" manner
>No video for High Elves even though that's just cinematic and nothing to do with if they are gameplay ready or not.

Tell me, without telling me that High Elves are getting the absolute least effort for their DLC, on par with or even below Gorbad's campaign.

>>530690602
it's baffling to me too, this character exists as a one sentence quote that makes her seem mildly haughty and a paragraph where it says she fell out of favor with her father because of a failed invasion and one guy turned her into some anime character. i get that it's an anime board full of mentally ill people but the way this guy is spamming this shit it seems like he would have an actual meltdown when she's added and is a completely separate character design wise and personality wise from his fanfiction

IT'S UP

do you remembered? I do.

fantasoys laughing at histoids, laughing at 3kangs, at the damage control Grace was posting on reddit
some even said TWWH3 was a sacred cash cow CA would never kill, even as people posted what CA was teasing as their 'exciting new FPS IP' at the time
well who's laughing now?

Once CA sees that Neferata character DLC sells like bread it's over for us. We'll get gorillion "literal who" character DLCs for years.

>>530691797
Aaah. This is what Total War is all about to me. OK I'm done.

>These changes will likely mean the content we shared in our What's Next videos for Slaanesh and Norsca is no longer accurate.
THEY ARE TAKING AWAY OUR BOOBSNAKES!

grace fetch the future of total warhammer stretcher

>>530691426
Imagine being GW
You have to write about the dragon brothers
You write all the important ones and now have to write about the filler ones
One of the filler ones you wrote, unexplicably, have been equated to popular Anime character Acqua

>>530689783
AAAAAHHHHHHH NO MORE TELEPORT MECHANICS PLEASE

>>530691426
>>530691368
You guys seem way more visceral and invested into this just than just someone making memes.

>>530691985
Fantasoys are absolutely delusional thinking that whh would last forever and all the lore and content in the setting would be included

>>530690602
>>530691426
>>530692424
The fault lies entirely on GW. They've had years to do something as simple as publish some small illustration of what Yin Yin looks like and put a stop to the Aqua memes, but they sat on their ass and let the weeb headcanon fester.

Finally biting the bullet and getting Chorfs since you guys can't stop gushing about them. Anything else?

>>530692586
>no u
Sure anon

OH NO NO HAHAHAHAHA LOOK AT THIS DELAYED DUDE

>>530692772
Tomb Kangz. The rest are eh

>>530692734
GW probably never intended for yinyin to be more than a footnote anon
They dont give a fuck about 5 anons delusions in /twg/

>>530692772
Vamp Coast was fine in WH2, but it feels bad in WH3, it's powercrept and most of its features are not even worth using. Don't buy them. Yuan Bo is fine in my opinion, and Mother Ostankya brings Kislevite Warriors, though I don't like her campaign. Tomb Kings are a bit like Coast in that they've aged very poorly, but they are apparently getting a rework next month, so you could get these.

>>530685771
why the fuck are Ass*r getting a sailor dlc they don’t even hold the sea’s in lore dude probably jobbed a gorillion times to Druchii

>>530692802
>He he, Yin-Yin sounds like an idiot, I'm gonna draw her as Aqua.

>>530692631
STFU volound, you fucking lost hard.

>>530692994
>GW probably never intended for yinyin to be more than a footnote anon
Literally all of Cathay lore revolves around the dragons and their actions and family drama, to the point the single most important thing about the narrative campaign for them in Total War is the one dragon we won't be seeing, and you think they'd make one of them just "a footnote"?

>>530692948
>>530693028
I've never really understood the Tomb Kang hype but you know what, fine I'll try them out. What about Beastmemes?

>>530690063
Now thats a right and proper disaster.
What the fuck were they thinking?

>>530693220
yes
GW does it all the time, or keep it in the backburn for years until they find motivation to upgrade someone
If ToW survives 5 years they might care to add her in another edition

So 25th anniversary stream in december is where they'll announce 40k and tease the end times mega dlc
It's all coming together now

Haha... imagine female Villich molesting her sister who cant resist.

>>530693374
Yes
All youtubers aside from sotek, who is a massive fantasy shill and is afraid of 40k, are ritual summoning 40k
If 40k didnt exist someone would have shut the youtubers down in the partners program

I have a 20 word essay due in 2 years and I'm shitposting on /twg/ instead.

>>530690063
still cant believe they fucked up Civ 7 that hard, and the fact that the fucking base game did not include BRITAIN of all fucking countries

>>530693628
>I have a 20 word essay due in 2 years
Wow.

>>530693054
Asur rule the waves, while individual Druchii raiding fleets are often stronger than High elven patrols, the Helves outnumber the Delf ships significantly. It is just that they are tied to more than just dealing with dark elf raids.

>>530686320

WH3 development is ending because we are getting 40k.

No one is upset. This was always the endgame.

Two questions:
1. What will the big content pack be?
2. What will the free content be?

>>530694082
>A mega DLC for 2026 has been confirmed.
100% Nagash. Kangbros, our time is coming...

>HOLD THEM TO ACCOUNT!

>>530694556
bro just right clikc your unit and then right click the enemy unit what's so hard to understand

>>530694556
most campaigns end by turn 30

>>530694451
Why didn't they schedule the release of the big DLC to coincide with their 25 year anniversary?

>>530694741
Because warhammer is an afterthought and 40k is the main event

Damn, Kraka Drak missed its chance for an individual DLC.

>>530693028
>Yuan Bo is fine in my opinion
the fuckers removed high elf trade vision so they can sell it as dlc with this guy

>>530695382
ok tranny, you didnt say what faction YOU are going to play though

surely CA aren't going to fuck another release after all the learnt with warhammer 3

>>530695420

He like to lead some Einsatzgruppen in Norsca to brun their coastal villages.
Once he burned Marienburg harbor because some pirates who (sometime) anchor in Marienburg sacked a fishing village in Ulthuan.
Casual racism toward Halfings.
Lost a duel against Lokhir (who obviously cheated) and his dead body was thrown into the sea, only to be washed up on the shore a few months later uninjured but without memory of the past months.

>>530693063

We all knew because milk and cummies leaked it then did major damage control.

>>530696861
I kneel, I didn't think like CA's retard brain does where they don't make Norsca the obvious fucking ice blue.

>>530696861
99.99% of people expected HE

>>530696861
>the content we shared in our What's Next videos for Slaanesh and Norsca is no longer accurate.

High elves will end with 7 lords?
Holy shit

The Great Book of Grudges accused Milk and Cookies of breaking embargo by revealing the High Elf portion of the DLC.
Milk and Cookies was supposedly met with no repercussions for this breach.

>>530697101
Cummies is now committed to making 40k videos btw

I stopped my 5 hour gooning sesh to be here, and this is what I get?

>oh btw third lord is aislinn, kthxbye
They didnt even have concept art to share, they quite literally, are very far from shipping this dlc, expect it at october at best

>>530697049
It's not in life support because hyenas flopped. They wanted to drop it since before launch because they were high on their own farts about the first AAAA game. But after that flopped they had to come crawling back to warhammer.

If it was really on life support we would have already had a quick thanquol/nagash cash out and an abrupt goodbye.

>>530697129
What does that even mean? Units, lords and heroes get shuffled? They are not actually making Fimir a generic lord, right?

What will the Lizardmen and Tomb King reworks contain?

>>530697379
How is it possible liggers have 7 LLs and still be a dogshit npc race?

How many human Warhammer fantasy factions have worshiping chaos being illegal but otherwise freedom of religion is the general rule of the land?

Prediction: Aislinn will start at one of those tiny islands in the kiddy pool,near the dragon isles

>>530697645
Hopefully easier confederation, geomantic web rework and cataclysm spells

>>530697645
probably not much, if it was a true rework they would have called it that, "quality of life improvements" in CA terms means something minor like a building tree rework or something

Alternate prediction: Aislinn will start south of Khuresh.

>>530697870
Well, don't most of the human nations have multiple gods/goddesses? Besides the horsefuckers I guess?
So most of them probably.

>>530685595
Legend, I'm sorry you are a pro LGBTQ balding autist

>>530697870
Definitely not Kislev, not Cathay, not Druchii, not really Lizardmen, Dwarfs would allow it for a non-Dwarf though, and Bretonnia could also be fine. The one faction that has freedom of religion is Empire. You can even find Khaine's worshippers there. I wonder if Hashut's permitted.

>>530697661
Because of unbearably boring campaigns, with shitty start positions

I am thinking that Boris Todbringer will be released as an FLC lord in December.
Who is with me?

No dark elves content/rework? No high elves rework?

I wont watch l*gend because im not a shitskin nigger but genuinely how has he managed to make an entire dev team seethe and become fully incompetent

High Elves CHADS, we are eating good today despite the delay, praise Isha and Asuryan!
>Tyrion rework SOON
>Teclis rework SOON

So what's the schizo theory on the delay?

>>530699317
What did did the balding Maltese do this time?

>>530699530
Bulgarians are given too much leisure time and need to be reinvaded by Turkey.

They forgot about the Bretonnia rework that they announced last October.

>Absolutely no mention of Bretonnia at all in the blog

S-squire ... is this good for us or not ... I need some hopium right now ....

>>530699530
The dlc was delayed so that it can be officially sponsored by Phase Connect. Big move on CA's part, landing big corpo sponsors. They need time for all 29 girls to complete a different campaign to build hype for the dlc.
Unfortunate, yes, but worth it? Also yes.

>>530699557
be right about everything

>>530699530
Bulgarians lied on their resume.

>>530699921
>>530699889

>>530698519
Lurk moar

>>530696537
Wow... that's so terrible, I'm sorry you had to go through that.

ok so I'm trying to get into Three Kingdoms, I'm a warhammerfag and also slow in the mind so the less unique mechanics the faction has the better, also I like female characters and heavy and/or hard-hitting infantry
Who is a good faction to play as?

>>530698661
>Legendary Follower: Cat
>Singular
Neferata's campaign will be about collecting the cats of power, receiving increasing bonuses the more of them you have. Unique campaign battles will include fighting Durthu over a cat that climbed him, defeating the skaven of clan Moulder who have one trapped in Hell Pit (she's ok, don't worry, they don't dare go into the cage, but don't take too long because they're feeding her really bad quality wet food), and going into Nehekhara to get one that the skelletons have put in a temple and are bringing offerings to.

Ogre Kingdoms = 2 Legendary Lords + new race
Champions of Chaos = 4 Legendary Lords all for the same race
Forge of the Chaos Dwarfs = 3 Legendary Lords + new race
Shadows of Change = 3 Legendary Lords
Thrones of Decay = 3 Legendary Lords + 1 FLC Lord
Omens of Destruction = 3 Legendary Lords + 1 FLC Lord
Tides of Torment = 3 Legendary Lords + 1 FLC Lord
Neferata DLC = 1 Legendary Lord
End Times DLC = 6 Legendary Lords + 2 FLC Lords

>Aislinn DLC
So i guess it guarantee the Skycutter, the Sea-Helm (Lord or Hero ?) and finally the Merwyrm; but what else ?

What about Dogs of War?

>>530700282
ratfags were worse and their art is ugly, it doesn't even break top 5 worst gimmicks in the thread

>>530700464
>I like female characters
If you want to use a lot of Legendary female commanders on the battlefield then play Sun Ces start in 194, youll get access to Sun Ren (solid Vanguard) and the Qiao sisters (both are meh but become serviceable together) or play Zheng Jiang and if you can survive the earlygame youre solid for the rest of the game.

>>530699514
High Elves should have something like the Chorf Tower of SAAR where they can spend influence for buffs.

>>530694556
the type effectiveness chart for pokemon is more complex than this game series

>>530700880
thanks I can try Sun Ces, probably wouldn't be able to survive a challenging early game

3 hours since we last received news.

>>530694556
Pokemon is way more complex than this dude.
90% of TW mechanics can be figured out through simple common sense, like "if you want your guns to fire, make sure there's no wall, hill or friendly unit standing in the middle of the view to their target".

The other 10% is "CA broke guns again with a patch, wait for them to get fixed or get a mod".

>>530701652
Where's my next one?

>We are delaying the release date of Total War: WARHAMMER III – Tides of Torment from our previously stated summer release window and now do not intend to launch it at all.
It's over

>>530698689
Lizardmen have the only attractive young fuckable men in the setting

I wanted the third faction to be Vampire Counts ;_;

>>530702220
You are literally getting a unique DLC starring the progenitor of the Vampire Counts.
Be patient, it will arrive a few months after Tides of Torment has released.

>>530700708
if they just slap sea caravans as a mechanic for him i might actually buy it since caravans are the only good thing to come out of this game so far

GOD FUCKING DAMN IT I WANT TO PLAY NORSCA SO BAD

Also do you guys think Wulfrik is better on foot/horse so he can duel better, or on the mammoth?

>>530702307
I must be blind, where does it say that?

so what do we play until the DLC releases?

>>530701629
read what his faction mechanic does or you are in for a quick death

>>530701629
Sun Ce start is a bit tough and his mechanic looks scary but its basically
>Sun Ce will die if his Reckless Luck runs out
>do the battles it tells you to do and youll get good rewards
>follow his historical route for the best outcomes and challenge
>access to one of the best Vanguards in the game (Sun Ce)
>mercspam because they start recruited at max capacity then disband
Eventually youll have a good foothold in South of the river which is good land once you start growing it properly and your Reckless Luck will eventually stop declining meaning youll be immortal (unless you play with aging enabled but I turn that off) it definitely feels like your the main character while playing his campaign its pretty fun

>These changes will likely mean the content we shared in our What's Next videos for Slaanesh and Norsca is no longer accurate.
so what was even the fucking point?

>>530702528
mammoth > foot > horse
he's not even good at dueling but at least he can tank infantry on foot
mammoth is the only actually good mount for him
ideally they will fix this with ToT

>>530702975
>show badly designed thing

>>530702975

What do you think siege rework will be

>>530702609
Pay $10 for Neferata, no unit, no heroes. only Neferata

>>530702528
They should give wulfik buffs marauder unit/elite meeles and take away mammoth mount

>>530702693
>>530702708
his faction effects seemed too stressful, ended up going for Lady Zhurong, she is boner fuel anyways

>>530703909
Removing them

>>530703897
>Soïtek whining about how he want a Fimir Lord
tbf to the fat-faced neckbeard, the Fimir Lord being a hero option would have been really weird when Norsca already has a monster hero character in the Skinwolf, so it just seems like a redundant roster filler, whereas if it were a lord option, it would have had some more usefulness to a Norsca game.

>>530704208
It really isnt that bad it just seems scary at first
>Zhurong
Yeah, that aint a bad option either if you want a female faction leader, its much easier than Zheng Jiang

If the tcaluk ever had any honour they would have disemboweled all those responsible for hyenas and these delays
TW40k looks less and less likely

the SLUT isn't even wearing anything under her armor...

>>530688862
why would it be called lords of shang yang if zhao ming is the lord of shang yang

I heard rumors that some people are saying we're not going to get the one eye swamp creature Noble now because of changes. Also is the troll King going to still get new voice lines?

I wonder what they will do and talk about.
CA developers can't be as bad at Total War as Milk and Cookies.

>>530705124
BRING ME NEFERATA'S HEAD!

>>530699530
According to the blog
>We playtested it and realized this is shit
So my schizo theory is the Bulgarians made campaigns that were fun (challenging) but the playtesters shit themselves and wanted easier campaigns with more stacking army buffs, stack wiping army abilities, and instant win campaign "mechanics" so they have to rebuild everything.

>>530705285
CA said that they will clarify the changes and additions in an August dev blog.

>>530705459
Total War: Troy has lots of buff-stacking.

>>530705041
the armpit does a lot for me
do I need to worry about her dying of old age?

>>530704605
Li Dao looks like THAT ?

>>530705781
If you have the option turned off in campaign settings, no

>>530705459
They made Skulltaker too easy, my schizo theory is actually that the new DLC was also too easy and it was delayed to give the Bulgarians more time to get used to how things work in Warhammer and to balance it more. They certainly can make challenging campaigns going off of Pharaoh, they probably just need some time when it comes to Warhammer.

>>530705781
I'm not sure if she was based on any real individual or multiple women but it won't answer in Romance of the Three Kingdoms she might be alive now because she's a demigod. no I'm not joking the jungle people King married a demigod,

News was good for:
Aislinn enjoyers
Neferata desirers
End Times preachers

News was bad for:
Literally everyone else

These games would be better if you could build stuff on the battlefield, kind of like Fortnite
>you will never pull a Caesar and build a wall around your opponent’s wall
>you will never win a war without winning a battle
why even live?

>>530705781
If you turned on immortal characters, no, they won't die. I don't get the complaints people have about age, though, at 5 turns per year it's gonna be a long while into the campaign before people start dropping off especially with an earlier start date. You can get a mod called some death by old age as well to force characters to make it until their 70s at the earliest before dying.

>>530698101
I figure he'll start at Tor Elasor at war with vampirates or Delves.

News, huh, yeah
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, uhh

>>530703560

The fact that theyre so ass backwards to only barely start doing this shoes theyre desperate and retarded. At least now theres 0 excuse for some of the still missing lords
>neferata
>nagash
>the dragon siblings
>thanqoul
>valten
>bertrand the brigand
>chakax
>naieth
If they arent adding at least these LLs then theyre incompetent

>>530705992
that's pretty cool, I don't know anything about the romance of the three kingdoms
>>530705864
>>530706056
had to restart and do this

>>530697870
I think all of them except for Kislev. Kislev has the Orthodoxy being extreme on what is and what isn't allowed worship. The Empire, Bretonnia and Southern Realms accept any religion, Sigmar/the Lady/Myrmidia are just simply the patron gods. Cathay has ancestor worship and the dragons as quasi-divine influences, but I'm not sure I'd call what they have with the dragons to be full on religion.

No idea what was the deal with the Tomb Kings. They had so many fucking gods, some clearly having evolved into what would later be parts of the Old World pantheon, that I'd lean on them just allowing freedom of religion though.

>>530706301
>40ktismo can't understand sarcasm

>>530706703
Did you know that Queek Headtaker received +400 health points in the latest update?

>>530695882
What do you think "Battle Wizard Lord" is, retard?

>>530706968
A single lord won't be enough, I presume it'll be a lord with a unit or two

>>530706968
"If they aren't adding at least these LLs then they're incompetent".
Sir, where have you been the last couple of years?

>>530706968
>No mention of Bugman.

>>530707085
Fuck, I missed it. Sue me.

you know that character pack means no more FLC, right?

>>530707194
They did mention that "favoured additions" would also be joining the lord. We will find out for sure when the Neferata DLC is officially announced.

>>530707194
I expect at minimum an LL, a new generic lord and hero, at least 4 units and a unique mechanic, idc if that makes me entitled but thats the bare minimum they should have
>>530707234
thats why them not doing any of this just reinforces just how bad they are
>>530707247
LH at best

>>530707485
>LH at best
A LH doesn't come with campaign mechanics and a Bugman that doesn't come with a brewing mechanic is unacceptable, easy as.

>>530707376
>implying we havent had an FLC drought since WH3 came out
Last shit they gave us for free was a shitty Hobgoblin artillery piece and a Blood Knight variant and we're supposed to somehow be content with that

>>530706336
scrumptious

We really went from 1v1 DLC to 1v1v1 DLC to 1 DLC.

>>530707376
At this point there's the chance we have no more DLCs at all. Nothing guarantees Tides of Torments can not be canceled.

>>530688290
The fun part is that the cancelation likely saved them money on the long run, not sure what where they thinking with that game

>>530686817
>old game doesn't make as much money so gets less development
wow

>>530708247
Motherfucker it's the ONLY thing that makes them money right now.

Do people actually queue for ranked matchmaking in TWW3?

Cant wait for Neferata in 2027

>>530708321
In two more weeks they'll release Rome 2 Remastered 2

>>530708362
Neferata is coming in 2026. Warhammer 3 support will have ended by 2027 and CA will have moved on to Warhammer 4.

>>530708321
You lack vision! The next one will get them more money in the long run! Like 3K was doing before they killed it

>r*ddit is defending CA devs
I bet if it was anybody other than Aislinn theyd be throwing a bitchfit about it

Let's think of what helf units are going to be in the DLC
>Merwyrm
guaranteed pick, CA loves SEM monsterslop and this would be a good pick for a "setpiece unit"
>Lothern Skycutter
ngl this thing is gonna look like rank ass in game, war drum tier or perhaps even worse
>Sea Helm
makes sense for a naval LL
I dunno beyond that, I can only guess by comparing unit rosters of the various elves. Do the helves have a magical cavalry equivalent to sisters of the thorn/doomfire warlocks?

>>530707376
>you know that more DLC means no more of the stuff that is coming only along DLC

>>530708761

>no announced (let alone imminent) releases for total war since pharaoh (which flopped, and wasn’t even made by the main team)

I’d actually be embarrassed to tell people I work at CA. I’d rather tell people I work at Wendy’s.

>>530707881
she probably stinks tho, extremely sweaty from living in a rain forest in an era before modern hygienic products
probably doesn't shave either, full wild untamed bush

Phew, was out all morning on grill duty at my nephew's bday. What's this about Aislinn?

>>530708328
Been wondering this too. I get the urge to try and learn MP once every few months but the prospect of having to organize a game through Discord like it's a dead fighting game turns me off everytime.

>>530709043
It isn't about the journey... it is about the end.
December will save us.

>>530707881
the pseudo 3d grass 3k and warhammer uses looks so fucking ugly, i don't know why they don't use really pleasing 2d grass that allows for more density like pharaoh

>>530709043
Don't forget also announcing and promising a super duper DLC pack for next year in the same blog where they revealed that they're too incompetent to even deliver this minor DLC on time.

>>530709151
Another delay
Third LL is Aislinn
single lord dlc coming, first one is Neferata
Big expac coming next year, most probably the End Times.

>>530707376
Dark Elves have like 4 named character not in game (i count ony the ones with a model).
They can totally get a new LL with the new DLC type + a FLC character.

Tides of Torment(ing the playerbase with excruciatingly long times inbetween DLCs)

Why are dark elves so popular?

What will Aislinn bring to the battlefield?

>>530709151
Asur won.

Total wai: waithammer 3. Wait your daemons.

>>530709572
They were genetically engineered to be the best elves.

>>530709630
Nothing besides being as generic as every HElf LL desu

>>530709630
A navy.

>>530709572
I used to be a huge fan of the druchii, but since CA changed their slave mechanics and basically diluted without giving it any flavor I no longer care much for them. I haven't touched a delf campaign in more than a year.

>Edging Slaanesh fags for 4 more months

>>530709572
they're not lmao, they have one of the lowest legendary win rates going off achievements. delf fags on here just shitpost their edgelord headcanons without actually playing the game

December will redeem them and you will all eat your words

>Aislinn starting on Tor Elasor
>Sayl and Dechala starting in the Ind/Khuresh area
Theyve run out of space everywhere else they need to keep making a bigger map

>>530710679
>army painter after 6 years

>>530710782
Army Painter will likely be the very last release because once all of the cool/popular LLs are released it will be the only thing CA can do to squeeze a little extra money out of everybody before signing off.

Its real hard for fantasy fags to grasp that there is 20 slavs working on wh3 and the remaining 530 ca employees are doing something else that doesnt involve their "forever" game huh?

>>530710967
lmao last time that happened Hyenas almost killed the company

>>530710357
steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3238432277

>>530711043
Well Hyenas was a game that literally no one asked for. Whilst the new thing is likely familiar territory, ie a Total War game.

>>530709572
it's a fun faction

>>530711208
ain't nobody asking for a non-Warhammer Total War, bruh.

It is between:
Yin Yin
Aislinn
Neferata

>>530708967
>LL
Aislinn
>LH
Eldyra
>Lord
Lothern Sea-Helm
>Hero
Mist Mage
>Units
Spears of Dabbarloc (elite Lothern Sea Guard)
Swiftfeather Rocs
Lothern Skycutter
Sea Marines (very elite, small unit size, like Aspiring Champions)
Merwyrm
>RoR
Sons of Kalagan (Skycutter)
Trident Bearers (Sea Marines)
Sciowyrm (Merwyrm)

>>530711394
If the FLC is Masque and not Yin-Yin i'm gonna laugh so fucking hard

just woke up from a 4 year coma
did their new FPS game come out? is it an authentic historical first person shooter or a gritty sci-fi shooter like people were saying?
was it a massive success like everyone expected?

>>530711297
I am

Aislinn's hybrid infantry are going to mog Kislev's hybrid infantry.

>Neferata delegated to single character DLC
Oh no no no no

https://youtu.be/pROVC97FolM?si=44JsbFeT4kOyB3_T&t=571
This is how most of you sound

>>530709572
Beats me, their entire fucking battle plan is just to use arcing fire AP dual-crossbows the entire game.
I guess it must just be that it's the faction for lazy and/or bad players.

>>530711208
lmao Medieval 3 won't save you anymore. That time has passed. You'll fumble the game, too. CA can no longer make good Total War games. CA can no longer make any good games. Just shut down the thing and move on.

I am just happy that they confirmed the End Times expansion is coming.

>>530711490
The FLC will be a Slaanesh Lord like how Epidemus is the FLC for ToT and Arbaal for OoD.

>>530711967
>CA can no longer make any good games.
I believe in the Alien Isolation sequel. First game was great and wasn't too long ago.

>>530710742
Masque replaces the Slaanesh minor faction east of Kairos
Dechala replaces the minor faction between Siggy and Malus
Aislinn goes to the meme islands
Sayl either starts as a vassal of another chaos faction or they move other Chaos lords around a bit, like moving Kholek below Grimgoy

>>530711512
Yeah we're all playing it

>>530712317
>First game was great and wasn't too long ago.
That shit was released over a decade ago, grampa.

Has everybody sent Legend a congratulatory Manscaped package on account of him being right about everything?

lmao what do you mean SoC didn't have FLC

Be'lakor FLC Lord
Ulrika FLC Hero
Aekold FLC Hero
Epidemius FLC Lord
Arbaal FLC Lord

>>530711421
Ships company is more likely than Spears of Dabberloc

>>530712552
I will buy a Manscaped for me thank you.

>>530712753
Epidemius was such a joke addition.

>>530712552
never heard of him

Guess the unique campaign mechanic for Sayl, Dechala and Aislinn

>>530711490
FLC Lord was confirmed to be Slaanesh, but it was before "the big change".
So who know now.

>>530712552
>Manscaped
People will call women vain and then buy shit like this.

>>530712552
Didn't he kill himself?

>DLC went through big changes
Odds of what they showed and talked about having been completely fake, and that at no point did they have anything more than art and some animations?

>>530713174
Sayl - they already kind of said, it will be an enhanced diplomacy feature of some sort
Dechala - no idea
Aislinn - shipbuilding mechanic like Vampire Coast
Styrkaar - some kind of glory mechanic like arbaal but different to fit slaanesh

HelvesGODS WW@

Why is everyone so sure of faction Nr. 3 being Helves?

>>530713648
because legend said so

A source claimed that the 3rd race was High Elves, being commanded by Sea Lord Aislinn.
Bear in mind that the source is Creative Assembly.

>Start 40k grand campaign
>End turn 1
>Have to wait for nearly 300 factions to finish their turns
>200 of them are space marine chapters

>>530710679
They are slow because they diverted resources to 40K, desperate to get back after Hyena and Pharaoh

>>530714083
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.
Fucking why? Why Helves when Vamps don't have a single lord with a proper faction mechanic?

>>530713258
No man actually buys manscaped, why do you think they have to shill on a balding strategy game YouTube channel?

>>530714823
0.1%. This is the sort of delay that would get SEGA on their ass because SEGA promised their investors this year will have a successful DLC, and they must be close to completion anyway... I hope at least.

>>530715060
I wonder how fucked they have to be to announce it like that without even a look at his model. Like the month where they just showed the snake lady every single time.

I cant wait to buy the next DLC then play Franz again for the hundredth time desu

So they're using the fact rhat they're slow at working as like an excuse to try and reduce the amount of work they have to put into dlcs by like 66% percent so they cam sell us less (for definitely more)?

Countchads don't need anything to actually win lol. We have all the units from the lore except for the irrelevant memehosts and when we get Neferata we'll even have a hot waifu lord all the while topping the competitive win% charts. Cope.

>>530715039
>From: "Neferata is the 3rd LL in the July DLC"

>>530715540
We keep getting free units while you get to suck cocks.

>>530715992
The worst thing about counts is the shitty bloodlines mechanic. Kemmler and ghorst need something else even if it's just a reskin for more magicky lords.

Not very.

>>530716139
They all play identical. The grey one gets Kroak for free right at the start which is cool.

>DLC delayed

At it might not be shit, so I guess that's a plus
>>530686478
I swear if we get Neferata as a solo DLC and not a full blown Bloodlines DLC I'm going to shit a brick and throw it CA. I've waited for fucking years to get actual Vamp Counts content and if they cheap out with ONE non-Von Carstein vampire it'll be dogshit

So, what's the appeal of playing as the lezzers?

at this point we'll be extremely lucky they can deliver anything at all ever again for this game

>>530716139
I wanted Kroq-Gar and Gor-Rok to press me against their pecs after I won their long victories. Nakai too, but Tehenhauin is the best. Avoid Mazdamundi, he sucks

Since the release just got delayed so they can fix more stuff, can someone with an official CA account please report the following QOL issues/bugs with wood elves:
-Khaine research nullifies glade captain hawk rider buff (fear)
-recent wildwood rangers rework nullifies glade captain wildwood rangers buff (vanguard deployment)
Thanks.

And lizardfags will still say they're better than ratbros..

Probably a tech tree rework since both of their tech trees are awful to get through. Lizardmen building are also still pretty shit.
>>530698068
I actively hope not because there's no chance either race gets the work it needs for a rework This had better just be a prelude to a proper Lizardmen rework of the geomantic web and blessed spawns and a Tomb Kings DLC.

I hope that British CA doesn't punish Bulgarian CA. They are trying their best.

Sorry TWpeasants, The next CA Kamige needs the resources more.

>>530718169
very tough infantry, combined arms, huge unit variety, lots of play styles, Lustria is (still) a death jungle where you're fighting on all sides

Quite literally the only good things about them are how good units up until the Troglodon and Coatl anyway look and how strong they are. Otherwise it's a struggle to have fun with them.

Ku'gath. He's so slow it barely makes a difference. and he will take no non-AP damage after that. He can already beat up everyone in melee, with this he is UNMATCHED in every single way. A lot of lords/heroes you can just put it on and compensate with a Strider banner or that other speed banner

>>530685515 (OP)
Overview of the news:
Tides of Torment races:
Slaanesh/Norsca/High Elves
Delayed until after summer

Tomb Kings and Lizardmen are getting updated in August

Single Lord DLCs are coming after Tides of Torment.
The first individual Lord DLC will be Neferata.

2026 will bring us the largest DLC that Total War: Warhammer has ever received

>>530720990
The answer is it's almost universally garbage because blue/crafted/quest armour is all better than this, the speed makes it annoying on powerful characters and makes it a death sentence on squishy ones.

It's only good for 2 things, stealing heroes from the enemy, and for putting on an important character you want to save that you know is about to die in a coming battle.

>>530721154
>the largest DLC that Total War: Warhammer has ever received

>>530720990
>. A lot of lords/heroes you can just put it on and compensate with a Strider banner or that other speed banner
good point

>>530719886
Put it on either a spellcaster, or Morghur. Morghur's one weakness is that despite his sky high MD and borderline immunity to ranged fire, he has no armor. And he doesn't depend on his attacks to deal damage.

>>530721438
WH1 remake inside WH3

>>530721512
Almost definitely, but not me, I love boats
The other reason they can't is because they'd have to figure out how to do it if there was one player in multiplayer without the dlc and another with it

Dumb fucking faggots. Use your fucking brains.

You think they can sustain themselves with DLC? You think SEGA would allocate a ton of resources to that?
>but DLC makes more money than games
Companies often throw in microtransactions and other shit into those numbers.
CA is working on bigger projects, how do you not understand that by yourselves?

this game is so over. The hype is gone. Post-launch support that fixes few of the game's core issues (such as the awful siges). A golden goose with so much potential, left to die under a bridge

Read the tweet, its poorly worded as hell, but they're clearly using CA as an example of what they HOPE will happen with the companies they're giving money to. Not that CA is one of them. CA is nowhere to be found on their website list of companies they give money.
Post a real source faggot. Show us this deep dive.

When are we next getting a unit animation showcase?

No fucking shit genius? Everyone knows that. The question is what the fuck is sustaining them in the meanwhile if they fuck up so hard with DLCs. They've already released other big projects lately, like Pharaoh, and those supposedly failed.

Are you happy that the 3rd race is the High Elves?

>>530720008
Tides delayed till winter, it is the 2nd to last average dlc, dogs of war and legendary heroes will be parcelled out into single lord packs, End Times dlc and end of support next year.
End of July or August we will get a Lizrdmen and Tomb King rework.

TL;DR on what you wanted the news to be?

>>530723380
I mean, it's not like there's more relevant content for Helves. What else are they gonna add? Ellyrion dlc? when the reavers are the worst fucking cavalry in the game aside from expendables? lol

The relevant part for us is that Warhammer is clearly approaching the end. Neferata was just teased, Nagash and End Times cant be far off. But here you retards are kvetching about it as if its a surprise.

>>530723761
Aislinn as third lord with surprise addition of naval battles.
Yin-Yin as FLC so everyone can finally shut up about it

Lizardmen is a right click race. If you like right clicking your army, then clicking the enemy army then they are for you.

>>530723990
I was hoping this game would be supported until 2027 or 2028 or so. There is still more content that could be added. Characters, heroes, etc.

I wonder if WH40K will be a live service game

How incompetent CA really is? Another delay? They haven't even announced the third race. Do they even have a third race picked?

>>530724563
The third race has been delayed

>>530724156
Yes if you want a chill campaign that you basically can't lose

>>530716139
Mazda was fun, dunno why everyone said he was too hard, only the Norscans of all factions gave me trouble.

/twg/ told me that the 3rd race is Vampire Counts.
/twg/ is not often wrong.

I thought it was Vamps too because CA usually listens to reddit. Glad I was proven wrong.

Yes, though I was 99% sure it was them, especially after Cummies not-leaked them.

If only Thanquol Anon was a Redditor.

Maybe you could make a mod to fix it, Anon!

now that the dust has settled, was the 3-lord lord pack format a mistake?

>fags genuinely mad that their footnote/appears-in-a-single-novel/rpg exclusive character isn't getting added in
Please be fucking real

>>530724101
Honestly, at this point, just take ol’ yeller out back do what needs doing.
It’s not worth it anymore.

>>530726984
I think it actually was. 1v1 is more structured and doesn't require 10 months to develop.

>>530726761
literally who

>>530725821
Yeah that would be crazy

>>530726984
The issue with this format is that not all factions are made equal, and some have more named lords or characters than units to add

>>530726984
Pretty clearly yeah.
As a matter of fact, it is beyond the scope of their capabilities.

>>530726914
i don't know how. also i feel like if it was easy, someone would have done it by now

In honour of my Legendary Morathi campaign I kinda wanna buy some Druchii minis but the classic ones are really fucking expensive and kinda ugly

Its actually a miravle chorfs wasn’t a nuclear failure. CoC was reskin city and reused mechanic the dlc

>>530726984
If 40K truly exists they won't be able to do this format anyway.
>Space marines have a bazillion named characters and units
>Most factions have nowhere near this number, with an average of 2-3 named characters and much less unit choices
Unless they follow the memes here and do
>DLC pack with blue, yellow and white spacemanii
They won't be able to do not even 1v1 packs.
They need to break packs into LLs and units

>>530727232
This guy claims to have resized Norscan infantry, maybe download the mod and perhaps contact him?
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2868206608

>>530727003
You have to understand the "super deep" lore of warhammer is mostly footnotes in a rulebook designed to sell little models, where whichever faction the rulebook is for has to be super cool and epic and every other faction has to look like losers

>>530727003
Uhm excuse me faggot, Ungor Fourhorn is VITAL to Warhammer Fantasy!

>>530727562
even better is when they just upload it using the .pack name so it's something like bigniggerstweakmod, like what the fuck does that mean, what does your mod actually do

>>530727389
I know how to resize units, you just change a number in the database. I dislike the proportions and physiques of the marauders, not the scale. This would require changing the actual 3D model of the unit, and I'm not sure if it's even possible.

>>530727824
Maybe try reskinning the Slaanesh maruaders to generic norscan maruaders?
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2803494347

>>530726984
The issue is CA and their absolute incapability to get any work done. Lets roll some numbers:
- Assume DLC is on skeleton crew. Lets lowball a 2% of their workforce for their benefit. Thats 10 people.
- It takes them a year to release the game, ie 52 weeks - 4 for vacations = 48 weeks.
- Thats 42 weeks x 40 hours a week x 5 people = 8820 manhours
It takes CA nearly 9000 hours to make ~15 models, texture and animate them and program a handful of functions (popup dialog box mechanics and couple scripts). Give models half the man-hours and programming the rest and you're at 4500 hours for programming and 300 hours per single model. On an engine they've used for decade and can recycle many existing mechanics, with experienced 3d artists and engine. How. The. Fuck?

>>530727976
That's actually a good idea, that model has reasonable proprotions.

WHERE’S THE TRAIACK…

>>530727765
Well obviously then they don't really want you to download it and it's just for private distribution
But that resize dude wrote a whole description

>>530727976
The mass single mutation is kind of lame
Best case scenario would be a mix where only some have the fleshspeararm and the rest have weapons

>>530727343
Almost all models can be found easily for free or very very cheaply (like 1$). You can just load them onto USB and print them at most libraries for like 40 cents a pop, no tech skills needed.

>>530732221
Well, to be fair it was only part of the docks that a pirate was hiding in.

I still believe in norscan blue

>>530732221
Who's *we*? Marienburg is independent. Nobody is going to go help them out. This happened precisely because they're the most important trade hub, so all the rich merchant assholes decided to secede and not pay taxes. Them getting sacked with the armies of the Empire not moving a finger is just what they were asking for.

>He sacked Marienburg!
OH HOLY FUCKING SHIT THAT'S IMPRESSIVE
THAT'S TOTALLY ON THE SAME LEVEL AS ELTHARION INVADING THE BADLANDS AND KILLING SO MANY GREENSKINS THAT GOBLINS NOW HAVE A DEEP ROOTED INSTINCTUAL FEAR OF ELVES

>>530734149
Chaos afters the climate so it much warmer than it should be

>>530734149
North pole is chaos land, doubt they deal much with cold there. That and Kislev is advanced cold due to Ursun's protection and the ice witches adding cold to cold.

I was planning to wait for the DLC release to get my Norsca achievements but it now seems that I shall be waiting until August for my Tomb King achievements.
It is all good in the hood.

I feel like Gorbad is the only lord who will suicide himself against garrisons in this game

>>530734085
AFAIK there is only one lord left for the ogres (at least from 8) and he doesnt have a mount either

Now that HElves will have 8 LL at least, does that mean people will stop seething about Lizardmen having 7 LLs?

>They usually fail because Kislev is cold
Do you fuckers just make shit up now?

I have bought every Total War game and a ton of DLC and also Alien: Isolation
I don't understand how CA can possibly fail

Good at duelling and adept at casting spells?

Not sure why but the turn I met Arbaal there was only 4 influence required to confederate him. He wasn't close to dying either so I have no idea what's going on. Skulltaker on the other hand I've been in contact with for 20 turns and the fucker is not even close to wanting to confederate.
