>>534147164Typical IQ of those who hate God's Chosen
>>534148867Hey! It's Queer Headgiver!
if you are looking for a challenge why don't you try playing without cheating?
>no corner camping
>no settlement selling
>no hero stacking
maybe you will be surprised by how different the game feels.
>>534150103Hero stacking is an intended mechanic and not cheating. You have no argument against it.
>>534150991total war is an army battling game not a hero fighting one.
>>534151593it's an army of heroes
>>534151593You can write whatever fanfiction you want, it's intended by the devs that you can hero stack. Your cope about it being cheating applies even less now that Gelt's mechanics actively encourage that you hero stack. This is why no one takes you seriously.
>>534151593armies can be comprised of heroes. there's no contradiction there
>>534151830first of all as it has already been explained multiple times the game is not balanced around hero stacking, because it isn't allowed in multiplayer, the mode that units are balanced for. second of all, even if it was intended what is stopping you from challenging yourself to play without doing it? at the end of the day no matter how much you want to cope the fact is that you cheaters are so desperate to claim that you aren't cheating because you know you aren't up to the challenge and can't win without doing it.
You will not build your armies the way you want.
You will do it my way or else.
>>534152346If it's intended and outright encouraged by the devs it is not cheating. Sorry, fag, you lost.
>>534152583you fags don't build your armies the way you want anyway, unless you are actually going to pretend that the game is most fun for you when your army is nothing but t1 garbage for 30 turns.
Reminder that Sun Quan's entire legacy is built off his brother's accomplishments and the talent he built around his family before he died. My dead grandmother would hace probably done as well or better in his position.
Oh ffs some GCCM maps just crashes to desktop when battle starts.
>>534152884Sun Ce would have been perfectly okay with that, the family was everything to him. He loved Sun Quan and Sun Quan served him completely faithfully. Sun Quan was also very competent as an administrator under Sun Ce and Sun Ce declared Sun Quan his successor for a reason.
Gonna watch this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOtPzfbG6EA
Then gonna play Pharaoh and burn down Troy!
>>534152583it's just one guy who got so utterly mindbroken by legendoftotalwar (the best TW player in the world, and the most watched content creator) that his life literally consists of playing this game the opposite way legend does.
Tehenhauin is the most interesting lizardmen faction to play with the sacrifices and all that, but he spawns in such a shit region it makes him so unfunny, you are basically forced to invade the southern chaos wastes and that shit sucks so much, reminds me of Malakai, also a really fun faction but you are forced to invade the northern Chaos wastes. You should be able to choose different spawns for each faction, give at least a couple spawns, some turn 1 event or something, this shit sucks so much.
>>534154414Also, with Tehen you start a world war against all the Skaven, but they are almost all on the old continent and Skrolk just fucking gets raped by everyone by turn 10, what's the fucking point.
>>534154592ikit is hard coded to sail to lustria and attack you at least
>>534153335Sun Quan was a retard that got wrangled and wheelchaired by his brother's friends into "ruling" over a successful kingdom. (until they died/retired and then everything promptly went to shit).
>>534154937Complete nonsense, Sun Quan was well respected as a good administrator who after getting left the shithole that was southeastern China by his brother, turned it into a powerhouse that was eventually so prosperous even the later Jin dynasty hung out there after getting btfo'd in the north. He wasn't a genius military leader like his brother but neither was Octavian after inheriting all his power from Julius Caesar.
>>534155159Imagine unironically comparing Sun Quan to Augustus... Just think about what you've done for a second.
>>534155390Imagine missing the basic point I was making this hard. No idea why you have a hateboner against Sun Quan bro but he was a good ruler, nearly all the sources agree on this.
>>534155694name me one good decision he made that was his idea and worked out well for his kingdom
I think Cao Cao and Sima Yi were the only competent Chinks
>>534156007Cao Cao yes. Sima Yi was also a giga fraud jew.
captcha: wwaht
>>534155983Refusing to surrender to Cao Cao and allying with Liu Bei? If you weren't retarded the events that led to the most famous battle of the era would have been the obvious first response someone would make.
>>534156356none of that was his idea. He was essentially "convinced" into making the right decisions and he certainly had nothing to do with the actual military and strategic planning and wasn't even a charismatic leader, really. He was just a guy. I'll accept saying he was a good aministrator or whatever, but as a leader of a kingdom he was incredibly lackluster and the whole thing would've fallen apart in months if Sun Ce's entourage had all left after his death. He lacked Cao Cao's strattegic brilliance and eye for talent, and he lacked Liu Bei's charisma and ability to inspire people and he certainly lacked Sun Ce's leadership, vision and ability as a leader of men.
Sun Quan was just a guy with the Sun family name. You could argue he didn't turn out the worst ruler with the Sun family name, but that's not exactly high praise.
>>534156862It was fully his idea. His advisors were split between putting up a resistance or just giving up and he actively chose to resist, pursued the alliance with Liu Bei, and chose what he believed to be his most capable generals to fight the battle which led to a victory against overwhelming odds. Your point about Sun Ce's entourage is especially hilarious because most of that entourage was actually inherited from Sun Jian and most of them stuck with Sun Quan because they saw he was supremely competent even with how young he was at the time. You honestly seem to have a very vague understanding of this time period in general, dude, you haven't even really mentioned anything specific about Sun Quan at all.
I can't think of anything less interesting than chinkshit lore.
>>534157191Warhammer lore.
>>534157113neither have you because there's nothing to he said about him. He was just a dude. Literally all the command structure was already in place when he inherited the position. He had the final word on things as the nominal leader, but he hardly actually had anything of value to add to anything. You could argue Zhou You had more of a leadership role than him. Sun Quan was just the retard than needed to he convinced to put the stamp on the orders.
>>534157242>chink lore so bad they need to bring up fantasyYou think you had a gotcha but you just fucked yourself.
>>534157404"Just a dude" wouldn't be the longest living of all the founders of the Three Kingdoms when nearly every Han emperor died under the age of fucking forty. Under his rule Nanjing turned into one of the greatest cities in China and another good decision he made was basically solidifying northern Vietnam as a puppet state of his kingdom. Once again, no idea why you have a hateboner against him. Not a single source says he was just a dude.
>>534157556Who said it was a gotcha?
>>534157635turns out brilliance and actually doing things comesmat the cost of putting your body under stress and peril. Almost all the rulers of that period that lived a long life and long rule share the common thread of profound mediocrity as individuals
I don't hate the guy, I just think he was completely unremarkable, especially when contrasted with his brother who preceeded him.
>>534158026>Almost all the rulers of that period that lived a long life and long rule share the common thread of profound mediocrity as individualsLmao tell me you know nothing about the period without telling me you know nothing about the period.
>>534157191What about Africa everything below the congo lore?
>nothing happens for thousands of years until colonised and then interesting shit starts happening
>>534158089we can make a list of prominent people of the period who had large impacts that lived long lives and/or long ruling periods on one side and people who lived shortened lives and/or tumultuous/short ruling stints on the other and then we can contrast which side stacks the most talent and personal accomplishments.
Wanna do it?
>replay Alarielle for the first time this year
>Sisters of Avelorn
Holy shit these are stronger than I remember. What the fuck. Just one (1) unit of these is a god-send. No red-line buffs, no tech' buffs.
>>534160536>allarielle with sisters, stolen dwarf engineer hero, missile strength trait and 4 allied hellstormsyep, it's kino time
what heroes are you guys even stacking, most heroes from the factions I play as are shit except the wizards, and you don't want more than one in your army.
>>534165353you've never made a gorebull stack led by a doombull? fucking absurd army
>>534165353I don't remember the last time I've used a duplicate of any hero, and these days I've been doing a mix of,
1 hero maximum per army
no hero on any army
1 hero with LL, none anywhere else
I've been tempted to do a hero stack just to try it in WH3, I did once back when I was newish in WH2 with Dookie masters, and I think that's the first and only time I've hero stacked. No idea what I'd do. If you actually manually battle, then monogod Cultists would be fantastic as they summon a lot of shit (multiple uses of daemons, and 1 use of greater daemon, this I think would be obscenely powerful).
>>534165453I mostly play order factions
and the little I played of beastmemes, don't they have a very strict cap on heroes? I remember having 1 hero and taking ages to get a second one.
>>534165353Vampire stack as Isabella is fun
>>534165567>no hero on any armyhow do you cast magic?
>I don'tthat doesn't sound fun
>cultistsI haven't actually got to play with the monogod chaos factions, only warrior of chaos.
>>534165702Many LL cast magic. And not having magic isn't ideal but it's a nice change of pace sometimes. Like that Grimgor run I campaign posted a little bit of yesterday was no magic users in his army. It's nice and fun sometimes, and yes, adds challenge. It is a breath of fresh air as I used to have the attitude of having a caster in every army (only one, lord or hero) but it's nice to mix it up. I don't care for ideal/best etc, just more thematic, interesting, fun, challenge etc.
Why am I so addicted to this shitty game?
>>534166195there's nothing similar
>>534166195Because it has a lot of good elements but is broken and needs a rework from the ground up. Shame we will never see it
>>534166396Age Of Wonders 4 is kinda similar i've been enjoying that
>>534166476battles are turn-based, not real time so that ruins it for me.
The big 3 armies vs 3 armies battle take forever because of that.
>>534165353There's almost no bad heroes in the game. The witch hunter used to be probably the worst but they even gave them some novel buffs.
Movement range heroes are mandatory, engineer heroes are mandatory, replenishment heroes are mandatory except for late game.
Overall the least used ones I would say are the melee heroes with training if they are in a faction with a strong front line, they can be redundant.
>>534165589All order factions have ridiculous heroes.
>>534167064So If I'm playing empire I could have
>witch hunter>battle priest>empire captain>wizard>engineerOn the same army? I've been avoiding doing that because I thought empire captain and witch hunter were bad, and having 3 slots used by heroes instead of units would be too much.
>>534167258Captains are decent/good, witch hunters are mediocre and easily the worst of the bunch (or engineer if you aren't getting much use out of their specific buffs which is very unlikely).
>>534167815Nice. Gonna give the hero stack army a try next time I play.
I often struggle to play my games WITHOUT a regen buff hero + move distance buff hero + engineer, and then of course you always need magic, and when all is said and done Its really hard to come up with a unit comp i'm comfortable with. Anyone else struggle with that? Over-using heros I suppose you could say
>>534169129I put every hero type in my army and fill the rest of the slots with the same unit
>>534169234prove it right now

lads any tips on what to replace the archers with? I don't think archer backline works with orcs sadly, the goblins suck, 0 range, arrer boys are too bad for max tier
>>534169349I don't have TWW3 on my phone
>>534169406boar bouys
more blorcs for the pile of violence
>>534167815Captains still just being a direct reskin of Generals is a crime.
Generals should have gotten a new model with the update, maybe a great weapon.
As it stands General of Empire is the lamest lord by far.
>>534169406If it were me I'd personally swap 3 of them for more black orcs and keep two. Im a shitter and don't know what I'm talking about though
>>534167258Captains are okay because they get a flying mount at the end, though I end up replacing them with Theodore Bruckner for example. They're competent duelists and help tie down artillery/fastmovers/tarpit.
Witch Hunters used to be excellent before >mpniggers, they're still an integral part of a goonsquad however.
Wizards are an obvious must if your LL is not a caster.
Priests are...interesting. I don't like using them, but several peopl swear by them, so I won't go into them.
Engineers are also a must if your army is "standard Empire" with the artillery/guns focus. Their buffs are too much, and for some retarded reason they stack, and their guns also do nasty damage to infantry, chunking off several models per shot.
>>534169406orc boar boyz for some backline harassment?

not sure where to expand i guess not-africa, where even is "historic greenskin land"
the mountains were dwarfs live? I kinda liked the system in WH1 where you could only expand to favorable terrain, so you could easily work towards your "natural" borders
>>534167258Yes then get 15 missile/artillery and you are set
>>534169901part of me also wants to ask for army comp advice but I've got about 1000 combined TWWH hours so I feel like I should have it figured out, and I don't wanna ruin the game for myself for going too meta.
I guess just for the fuck of it would anyone here have an opinion on a late game dorf army composed of say: runelord general, dragonslayer, engineer, 6x ironbreakers, 2x hammerers, 2x trollhammers, 2x slayers, 2x organ guns, 2 copters and a thunderbarge?
>>534169406>arrer boys are too bad for max tierYou're wrong, gorbad gives them entrench and has the stinkee arrers tactic making them very strong, you should be running like 4 of them.
I just exceeded my playtime on warhammer 2 with warhammer 3
here's to 3000 more hours
>>534170651>thunderbargearmy solo-er, the rest is irrelevant flavor
>>534170882yeah i think i'll keep some around i guess
>>534171317What's funny is I never actually seem to see or hear them shooting but they always absolutely rack em up every time
>>534169129Fighter mage and mobility feel mandatory. Replenishment is nice but can be cut, you end up with enough from tech/retainers/blue line most of the time.
I personally donโt like taking more than one hero that doesnโt pull their weight in combat
>>534171361what's shrigma
>>534169129Melee LL + Mage Hero + MAYBE a support hero (movement/replenishment)
Mage LL + Melee hero + a support hero (movement/replenishment) always
Empire example would be, as Gelt I always take a Captain and an Engineer, but as Franz I only take a Wizard; Volkmar gets both a Wizard and either an Engineer or a Captain (since he's OK in melee but not a "Melee LL" in the pure sense), Markus gets his goonsquad, Elspeth always has a Captain/Teddy AND an Engineer.

Is a training hero worth having? Besides WoC who want them for obvious reasons.
Yeesh so it's not even that they delayed news to August, but it's looking like it's mid-August? At least give some info on Aislinn's faction.
>>534172306Good things come to those who wait.
- Ancient Horsham proverb
>>534172069That's funnier than I expected.
>>534172165If you're playing with the unit upgrade mod (which honestly is a blast) then yeah. Most training heroes are also solid duelists/tarpits so there's not really a detriment to running them.
Otherwise, ymmv.
>>534172496Yeah like Duke Nukem Forever right?
reminder that tomb kings exist, because I know that you forgot
>>534172910they released that too early
>>534154358the only person in the myths we know for certain was real was Paris
Agamemnon and Menelaus might also have been real, but that's speculative as the only surviving document referring to them just says it's the king of Ahhiyawa and his brother were starting shit in Anatolia, doesn't actually refer to them by name
everyone else existing or not is pure conjecture
and then semen people came, bro's age collapsed
>>534174917How do we know Paris was real?
>>534172496omens of destruction was dogshit
>>534175192they found a document that refers to him by name in the ruins of Troy, irl he was their king and a vassal of the Hittites
Who are the tides of torment legendary heroes gonna be?
All fucking literal whoโs, yeah?
>>534175438if you think golgfag and skulltakers unloseable campaigns and gorbad 'recruit 2 random units to get a buff' + a few shitty reskins is good you need to kys immediately
there's a reason it got terrible reviews and sold worse than ToD
So why can't I load a save from battle directly?
>>534174917This basically.
The Trojan Cycle is a crossover of a whole collection of independent myths. Almost every character mentioned is a mythical hero in a separate story, or an original character created to be a fictional hero particular to the Trojan War (ie Achilles in the Iliad).
If there really was a historical Trojan War (which is likely but uncertain), it's definite that the ancient bronze-age acheaen kingdom of Mycenae was involved, but Agamemnon and Menelaus are fictional characters that go on heroic adventures in a separate myth and there's no evidence to suggest they really existed or were actually involved in founding and ruling Mycenae.
The Trojan cycle is sort of like the Avengers of the ancient greek world. Every hero that doesn't get killed off in their own story shows up, and all the dead ones get references like a sidequest to uncover Hercules bow
>>534175801>golgfag = unloseable garbage ala changelingTrue
>skulltakerI thought he was fair early and OP late, which is like every campaign. Its just khorne is so aggressive that it overrides the early being just fair
>gorbadAt least it isnโt just โop auto winโ and even dares you to use shit you might otherwise not. Iโm sure thereโs optimal builds, but its a roleplay campaign. Too bad I hate the black crag start pos.
Nta but yeah Ood was pretty lame for me and I expect more of it with ToT
Can anyone think of a game franchise that seems have less efficient devs in terms of time spent and content created?
As far as I'm concerned no one comes anywhere close.
>>534176447Thinking CA is amongst the worst for this is genuinely delusional and spoilt. Fatshark immediately comes to mind, and beyond just "content created", they chase their own tail and make the SAME mistakes game after game; they do not learn from their own mistakes and work.
>>534176723> make the SAME mistakes game after game; they do not learn from their own mistakes and workAre you implying CA doesnโt?
>>534176447They've gotta be working on the next game and not *just* taking a whole year to make three new lords and a handful of units, right?
>>534176723>As of now, Creative Assembly employs over 1000+ people>We are a Swedish game development studio located in Sรถdermalm, Stockholm. With about 180 experienced and skilled employees,
so when is the next real siege update? Surely it will be soon considering you're only making 1 (uno, un) dlc this year?
>chimera is just a bigger manticore but a smaller dragon
>pleasure seekers (and pleasure knights, same thing but just mortal) will be worse necropolis knights, a shit-tier unit
>sky cutter will be a bad burning chariot because exalted flamer attack > 1 bolt thrower shot
>caster lord/heroes of slaanesh are merely obligatory reskins
>you literally couldnโt name anyone that anyoneโs ever heard of as LHโs
>merwyrm will just be another frost drake
>dechala is azazel but bad bc no flying or casting
>masque is a herald of slaanesh+, a shitty uber-squishy lord
>sea lord ainslinn does literally what?
People are actually anticipating this dlc.
>>534176197it was the original crossover fanfic.
>>534177695It's the filler arc before the real dlc is announced
>>534176197>The Trojan cycle is sort of like the Avengers of the ancient greek world.>everyone thought it was completely made up until the ruins of troy were discovered 3000 years from now they will discovere the ruins of new york or wherever the avengers took place and people will think it was real
>>534177695Slaanesh will be fun to play and many people have put it off because they were expecting this DLC last time before they pivoted.
Norsca likewise has been hotly anticipated, and I know from experience they are quite powerful, just boring in WH3. People will have fun with it.
HE are always a good time.
It's going to sell well and be reviewed well IMO.
>>534177927Worst part is youโre unironically right.
Too bad southern realms or endtimes or w/e will be too little too late to save the game. The skeleton crew that canโt get a lord pack out in a year is supposed to drop a mega dlc in 2026? Yeah ok.
CA are fucking shot.

>>534179664Not every unit needs every scrap upgrade?
Like why would I waste scrap for armor on my arrer boys? Why bother buffing shitter-tier basic gobbos at all unless Iโm a gobbo LL? Just the ranged buffs are fine. I had more than enough scrap to go around for my early-mid units in my last campaign.
>>534179862>The mechanic is fine, you don't need to actually use it in the early game or to fully upgrade units late game!Boring.
Imagine if WoC had some limited currency for warband upgrades and you were incentivized not to promote Marauders so you could save it for Chaos Warriors to upgrade them to Chosen. It would feel like shit which is how scrap upgrades feel.
I HATE TREES I HATE TREES I CANT SEE SHIT GODDAMNIT
>>534177695I want the exalted hero of Slaanesh and the pleasure knights so I have more cool stuff to put in my WoC armies. Azazel needs his tank daddy and mortal slaanies need their skullcrusher/doom knight equivalent
>>534180626I get what youโre getting at, but thats a little apples-oranges. Warband is the core mechanic for WoC while scrap is a sidebonus for GS.
But, I digress, yes, there should be a tech and a blue-tree skill that improves scrap collection post-battle.

>>534180927>>534179862>>534180626I feel like a lot of faction specific mechanics should have been basegame features. In fact, some where basegame features of older total war games
>scrap mechanic is a more elaborate version of the copper/silver/gold armor/weapon upgrades from med total war, but without altering appearance of units>kislev governors are just the governors from the past but with a more elaborate skill tree, and really should be something every faction should be able to do.>caravans are merchants but cooler, and should be something everyone civilized should be able to doIf you grabbed every special faction mechanic and made them universal (and balanced the game around it, of course) we could have a real decent campaign strategy layer.
>>534181470Don't forget the Tower of Zharr mechanic, people have made really good mods that add it to the High Elves and Kislev
>>534181676Oh, I haven't played the chorfs yet, so I'm not familiar with how it works.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yxmixdJnYE&t=32s
>>534181814Basically you and the other chorf LLs use influence granted from settlements to claim seats in the Tower which give bonuses to whoever holds them, filling up a section's seats entirely gives bonuses to all chorf LLs, filling up 2 sections of a tier unlocks the next tier which has more powerful bonuses. There's 3 tiers of seats and a 4th pseudo-tier which allows you to spend influence to confederate the other LLs. The High Elf mod is a little more in depth, dunno about the Kislev one.
>>534182375Kislev was pretty much the Chorf system copypasted with the bonuses and effects changed to suit Kislev. It was still a fun addition, same that the rework completely crashed it and I don't think they have fixed it yet.
>>534182375That's pretty cool. Might add it to my next helf play-trough.
why do my heroes and lords circle around other heroes and lords or require multiple commands multiple times in order to kille what i want them to kill?
>>534182979Often the case when your lord/hero is very fast (e.g. on a small/nimble mount) and the target is small and relatively slow. Need to move them away for a second then have them charge in.
>>534177695I am fairly excited about the Norsca rework, but not about anything in the actual DLC. Like the other anon said, at this point I only care about this DLC as far as I want it to get the fuck out of the way to make space for a DLC I actually might like.
>>534181470This
Paradox, as cancerous as it is with dlc numbers, got it right with dlc adding to the base game over time
>>534181470thats what makes me think CA are the most inefficient devs in terms of output for such a large team
reskinning this shit should be so easy, and modders prove it, changing the campaign map is easy
i dont know if its sheer incompetence or that they want people to have an artificial sense of value of small content drops so we pay more
>>534183663they are behind on storypoints
>>534173317Man they're such a cool concept but so dogshit to play it seems almost spiteful on CA's part.
>>534177695>>you literally couldnโt name anyone that anyoneโs ever heard of as LHโsWhat about Boris Todbringer's 12 year old wife to really make it ToT?
>>534182375Oh shit I forgot about that one, was thinking about playing El Tharion while I'm waiting for Aislin so maybe I'll give that a shit.
>>534182607Remember to build alliance outposts as those are a good source of grandeur (their tower influence resource), some of them reduce the cost of certain seats too like outposts in wood elf settlements reducing evercourt seat costs. Certain seats also give a modified version of martial prowess to allied units too.
Love the character saving feature in 3, High Elves get better the more you play them since you can save your Incendiary archmages and fire mages for later campaigns.
>>534186087Not once used that goofy mechanic. Comes across as a bandaid to their inconsistent and poorly executed trait system.
God fucking damn it wood elves have to be the most annoying little shits ever
>>534175801Golgfag is a fun campaign that synergised well with the Ogres rework. The other 2 I'll agree with as being subpar.
>>534186568how is an unloseable campaign where diplomacy, gold, meat, empire building etc doesn't matter at all fun?
>>534186087>character saving feature in 3what
what is that, I haven't noticed anything like that.

Does anyone else remember the Grim and Grave news posters? There was also a Thrones of Britannia news poster.
>>534186791Should be on the bottom right of a character panel, there's a button to save them and then you can load them from the recruitment panel in another campaign.
>>534186087Just enable cheats where you can pick the trait
>But that's cheatingSo is loading traits from other campaigns

>>534176197>If there really was a historical Trojan War (which is likely but uncertain)The most recent book I read on the subject proposed the idea that the Homeric account of the war may in fact be an amalgamation of two different NW Anatolian conflicts, one being a revolt of Anatolian City-states against Hittite rule around the 14th or 15th century BC, and the other around the actual Late Bronze Age Collapse.
The main support for the proposal was the use of weapons and armor in the Iliad which were rather out of fashion by the time of the LBAC but weโre all the rage in the 15th century (A type of Tower Shield being one particular anachronism iirc)

Out of curiosity since there is a lot of 40K mentioning here, do any anons ITT actually play the 40K tabletop wargame? And if so what armies do you own and do you think CA will add them on launch or among the first DLC in TW40K?
>>534215698I played a few games on tabletop simulator, but 10th edition is so garbage it completely sapped any desire to play. the main reason I'm not looking forward to a tw 40k game is because it will probably inherit a bunch of garbage from 10th edition.

Barbarian x roman is for 395 AD onwards
My internet just went down and I found out that CA requires always online to play their games. I can't believe this
>>534226538>>534226873reading about late period roman history always makes you pissed off at germans, like theodoric the goth, the guy dressed like a roman and larped as one while comitting all the common debauchery of drinking being loud smelly unciv and prob raping cows, germans were acting like that all over western europe for 400 years until charlemagne made em slightly more civilized, absolute savages before that, same tier as the migrants they're getting these days
4 centuries of dressing as romans and frolicking in their rujins until reaching somewhat civilized status
baka
I literally can't comprehend how blobbing models around an enemy hero will prevent them from attacking. It should be an easy fix
>>534227221I think we have only at best a few years before people are openly killing migrants in the streets, but hopefully I'm wrong.
Western Roman Empire has to deal with Suebian migrants in the early game. Wish we could deport those guys.
>>534231804those migrants are needed for the empire to function because the romans are too lazy to work

How fast should I be liberating the entire Empire? Last playthrough it took me nearly 100 turns
>>534238645What do you play?
Actually crazy how fuckingly utter garbage sieges are in this game, it's unbelievable, actually fucking crazy, like who designed this and decided this was okay and an acceptable standard? How can we not open a proper breach in the walls so gunpowder units can have a chance during sieges?? How is this like that since TWW1?? what the fuck is this fucking garbage, this is unbelivable, every time I play a gunpowder faction and a siege comes up I want to literally kill myself in real life, like actually put a real loaded gun in my mouth and blow my fucking brains out.
I had to spend the last 30 minutes of my life in the most soul-draining, life-sucking, boring, unnecessary siege and I am again reconsidering, why am I playing this utter garbage of a game, how is this even possible, I am a fucking imbecile.
>>534240996In WH2 I just found a mod that removed sieges entirely
Should I still build a Ranger stack with Belegar+Ghost Dads or do they fall behind too much now
>>534240768i play everything, before this latest TW binge played expedition 33, stalker 2, devil may cry (all the games), doom dark ages, kingdom come 2, oblivion remaster, stalker gamma, age of mythology remastered, tempest rising and a lot of indie FPS games
now though im kinda out of singleplayer and generally burnt, back to mihoyo gachas, total war, some marvel rivals here n there, battlefield 6 beta tomorrow... I don't really grind anything competitive multiplayer these days tho even tho I used to, no time to do that anymore + keep up with all these other games lmao

uuuuhh this seems pretty strong for how you obtain it
maybe becoming phoenix king by election isn't off the table
>>534242623do you mean which TWs
besides WH i always default to rome 2, nothin' like a good ol rome run... I usually do one of those after returning to TW, i like attila a lot too but I don't like avoid-the-hun campaign style so I haven't played it recently cause of that, besides that shogun 2 gameplay is great but I don't like fighting all the same faction, and oldest I've gone is rome 1 (+the remaster) since its my childhood game
medieval 2 is great but it just feels so dated to play, and like the whole game is squished, it doesn't have proper widescreen support, we need some kinda med 2 remaster immediately just for proper widescreen
>>534242754we all have our vices
>>534242117I haven't played since the Age of Reckoning update, I'm legitimately asking
>>534243527oh yeah
while my TW binge lasts I might give 3K another shot, last time I played liu bei but i over-extended a bit and got warred by all sides, and i played chase the raiding army for 30 turns, next time I'll pick a corner faction
that game is rly styilistic, one of the most unique TWs

>>534243708I never used many rangers in his army regardless of his skills because the orcs can't handle armor very well until a certain threshold, so even if you get flanked the quarrellers will hold their own until you can relieve them

>>534243720>that game is rly styilistic, one of the most unique TWsTrue. It has a lot of great things about it, but I could never get in to it. Always found it somewhat boring.
>>534243720It has lots of great features (missing technology if you will) and by combining mods like MTU and TUP you have quite possibly the best waifu TW but the UI is some mobile game garbage and despite getting used to it I still find the three general system and color autism to be stupid.

The LizardMAN is the epitome of male dominance and masculinity.
Let's start by looking at his body. His body is large. His domineering size makes his presence known without him even needing to point himself out. He is muscular, as a result of the blessings of the Old Ones bestowed upon him. This gives him the appearance of health and strength.
He is then covered by his scaly skin. These scales remind us of his ruggedness, a feature developed to face the horrors of Chaos, made to withstand such an extreme contest. It also has a psychological effect on the observer. The scaly skin reminds us of our primordial past, when the reptilian races ruled the world, as they shall again.
The LizardMANs demeanor is one of alphaness. He is dominant, assertive, and can be explosively aggressive. His behaviour strikes fear into the more timid, cowardly races of warmbloods (r*T scum)
In total, the LizardMAN man expresses this masculinity in a most exemplary manner in battle. When he enters combat, he unleashes the entirety of his strength and fury upon his foe without any restraint.
All this is the reason why the LizardMAN is the epitome of masculinity.
>>534284050More like exit because in another dumb move GW removed him.
>>534284265Is he gone completely, or did they just remove his TT rules?

>our Spiritual Liege
Speaking of, hes the only reason why the High Elves, Dark Elves and Wood Elves lore became remotely interesting, shame about his retarded balance on tabletop
>>534284050Hard to like Grey Knights seriously if they kill 100% of anyone not in their chapter who sees them. Like what's the point of heraldry and all the flashy design if you leave zero witnesses?
can different races breed in warhammer fantasy? is there an example of a half-elven/half-human or half-dawi?
>>534286548Yes/no, depending on the source. Most strict lore says NO.
>>534286548I think there was a half-elf Bretonnian knight at one point
>>534286548There were half elves in some very early novels and 1st edition of RPG
99,9% no longer canon, any other response is cope
>>534286548it's as canon as female Bretonnian knights
(it objectively is canon, but chuds will throw a fit over it and try to gaslight you into thinking it isn't)
It should've been Champions of Norsca with Egil, Styrkaar, Adella or Melehk and Valnir or some literal who Nurglite. Mortkin as FLC and Sayl as a bonus for owners of Norsca and Champions of Norsca.

>>534289249There's a TROM + TUP mod which is a separate thing that only implements part of TROM and from what I can tell it's not any of the good things I'd actually want to play TROM for. I also have a ton of other tweak mods that I like that I very much doubt will play nice with TROM.
>>534289637fair enough. For what it's worth I also put off getting into TROM for the longest time because I was using a bunch of my own homebrew mods and then I finally bitnthe bullet out of slight boredom and curiosity and now I can't imagine ever turnung it off.

https://youtu.be/PuvjaiwBzPY?si=pkubcBVvZxpDXtDL
>>534292561If you're talking about the TUP/MTU type stuff I always found it to be a mixed bag. Yes, new shiny characters and items is cool, and CA definitely missed a huge oportunity for making character packs and stuff like that, but on the other hand those mods often get really shoddy art and it often ends up looking really out of place in game. Not only that, I despise the tendency for theae types of mods to always go way overboard on the designs gameplay/balance wise. Even TROM gets a little bit of that unfortunately (but understandably) although TROM is mostly top notch on the gameplay side of things. Art is out their hands since they have to work with the MTU assets....
>>534294375MTU is just good art across the board and probably the most vanilla compliant unless you're Grace and don't like some of them having bigger tits. TUP does have some meh ones and some ones that are pretty obviously edited vanilla portraits but for the most part is more good than bad. The OP items (mostly in TUP) are definitely a downside but I have a mod that just deletes them each time you start a game so I haven't noticed any major issues. Really the only issue I have with MTU/TUP is that sometimes the models just don't match up with the really good portrait because it seems like for most characters (barring some characters that did get unique models like Lu Ji or Lady Wu) they only had vanilla assets to work with. Meanwhile with Wu Kingdaissance most of the characters have really good unique models but none of the portraits fit the vanilla style and often look like shit. I stole its unique Liu Hong and Empress He models since they look really good and both MTU and Wu make them playable anyways (and obviously they have unique art even in the vanilla game) but otherwise I prefer better portraits with slightly more bland 3D models over portraits that just don't fit.

>>534281017The fact that up to that point Aenarion was the only true Phoenix King with the blessing or Asuryan has been in the lore for ages.
>Aenarion went into the Flames, burned and got reborn>Malekith went into the Flames, burned and crawled out before dying>every other "Phoenix King" got protective spells, went into the Flames and didn't burn>one "Phoenix King" committed a suicide by going into the Flames without any protectionEven without ET, the only one worthy of being the Phoenix King was Aenarion.

Anyone elses saves stopped working on the siege beta? Fucking hell, I was just about to take 8peaks with belegar.
What else do they need to do to fix sieges?
Can it be done?
>>534296415>massing all your troops at the foot of the wallDumber than TWW AI
>>534299105Towers and barricades only buildable before battle (might happen)
Ability to deploy outside the gates as defender (might happen)
Remove ability to attack doors unless you have siege attacker (might happen)
More space outside the walls in maps (will never happen)
Ability to climb walls for certain units like spider riders and deathrunners (will never happen)
>>534299385>More space outside the walls in maps (will never happen)Pretty sure they outright said they're doing this for the upcoming siege rework patch, a few siege maps are getting expanded to be bigger and over time they're doing the rest.
>>534295065MTU definitely has some shoddy art. Look I don't want to shit on anyone because anyone who puts time and effort into making art for the game has my respect but let's be real here; tye overwhelming majority of the MTU art does not stack up to the actual original art, which is obviously understandable but it is noticeable. A lot of them oass pretty well, but some are pretty noticeable (The " one arm bear" guy from Kons Rong's faction comes to mind, which I believe was one of the first mods of that kind to be fair)
>titsI don't even know where this comes from. The only portrait that comes to mind is Lady Cai's, which to be fair is a little silly and looks very out of place but that's the only one. I guess the Yuan Shu ladies but those are pretty tasteful to be honest.
>>534299496There is effectively more room in the beta since the towers are shorter range. This is probably the only decent change and I imagine they will port it over.
Supposedly they changed a few maps but whatever they did it's not noticeable.
shogun 2 kinda sucks desu

Out of the Chaos gods, which one would it be best to turn your Chaos Lord into a daemon prince?
>>534299803Not my personal experience but every time it comes up Nurgle seems to be the one people say is the only good one
>been using cheat that changes the look of an LL
>notice it doesn't work at all (defaults to vanilla) when mounted
>my retarded attempts to fix it via rpfm fail
Bummer. Didn't know it could work like this, either. Apparently the modder needs the cheat to recognise the skin for each state (e.g. mounted, unmounted). And copying the mesh files from one to the other don't work, either.
>>534299105Not having indestructible sections of wall in between the tiny breaches you can make.
>>534299803Nurgle
Having a good flying unit is great for a faction that doesn't have that many good flying units.
And the lore of Nurgle is a very strong spell set.
>>534299803I'd rather not do any and keep the dragon mount.
>>534299385>Ability to climb walls for certain units like spider riders and deathrunners (will never happen)They said being looking to work on it.
>>534299385I'm definitely with building shit only happening during the setup phase, towers popping up under clouds of dust presumably kicked up by the workers woodworking a tower together in under a minute is a bit too cartoonish for my liking
>>534300110Yeah its dumb how much of a bad deal ascending a qualified Lord to Daemonhood actually is. He's physically more impressive on a Dragon, it costs a shitload of souls AND slashes his level in half.
And of course you're once again rolling the dice on the trait and his mini-quest rewards I can't remember what they're called, so if you get stuck with shit ones LOL too bad
>>534299612If you're referring to Wu Anguo I'll admit his art is not the greatest in the mod but I'm pretty sure he was actually in the last update which is when they were pretty obviously running out of steam and even still is equally on par with some of the poorer base game portraits like Lady Zhen or Yan Liang. Some of the bandit ladies are a bit boring looking but that is about it, the rest of the art is outright gorgeous and most importantly actually matches the artstyle of the base game, which most mods (especially the AI sloppa ones) cannot claim. Lady Trieu is the other one with noticeable big tits btw, and they're rather absurd. I don't see how anyone could complain about that one though when she was described as having massive tits in the historical sources.
Soul cost should be static regardless of level, but not halve the lord's level.
>>534300497You know why this is like this?
Multiplayer.
Have to make daemon princes balanced since they're casters, so they get hit with the nerf bat by design.
>>534286734>no longer canoni dont accept their retcons
>>534300734But most of the downside comes from 'upgrading', which is obviously not relevant in multiplayer
If he's a sidegrade at best, it shouldn't come with such a massive cost and a level slashing
>>534300497I forget, if you play a monogod faction can they ascend to daemonhood even though there's no souls mechanic?
is this the only way to check AI faction non-aggression pacts? kinda gay if so, there's clearly space for it on the relations tab
>>534299920Uh, as far as I'm aware you don't need to do anything special when making a reskin mod for it to appear when using mounts. I checked the Katarin reskin mod I have and it's just two variantmesh files, one for her appearance and then one for the cloth sim. The only other files in the mod are the actual models and textures and a UI replacement. What mod is it, I want to see how this modder fucked up a simple replacement that bad.
is there a mod that just extends the ability to replenish single entities from post-battle options to game 1-2 factions? everyone in game 3 has it but the others don't

>>534302847Tamurkhan's mechanic, but with defetaed female LLs you get to use them as LHs with custom skill lines, breed them for unique units and actions and have events describing their rape and mindbreak in detail.
>>534304460Original DonutSteel McDaemonPrince
>>534302847Just long detailed rape wvents when you defeat female lords and multiple choice rape plots about breaking female LLs after you destroy their faction and defeat them a few times in battle. You get a permanent buff and can activate a special mass orgy of that LL and women from her faction for special buffs on a cooldown
are modders and coomers the same demographic? Think about it, anyone who uses even a single mod is an annoying retard. Coomers are annoying retards too. It fits!
Finally some news:

>>534307717If you look at the coomer mods website youโll see they have really low downloads compared to workshop. Coomers are just a small but incredibly obnoxious and loud community.
These 2 fags gay ERP here all the time. They could go to any porn board or trash but they choose to ruin this one.
Which Beastman unit would be the best for cucking squiretranny and showing his elf slut what a real cock feels like?
>>534307983Legend purged his discord of all troons because they were posting tranime and he hates it as much as we do.
Itโs actually one of the reasons the legend hating sperg cries about legend every day, he hates Indians and coomers.

>>534300546>and even still is equally on par with some of the poorer base game portraits like Lady Zhen or Yan Liang.oh come on man, don't put me in a position where I have to argue against the modders. There's no way you actually think this. It's madness. The only portraits I can think of from MTU that are legitimately on par with even the worst from the base game are maybe the Yuan Shu girls, and that's it. I appreciate their effort and the vast majority are definitely good enough, but there's no way you can honestly say they have the same level of technical artistry to them. a very large number of them have noticeable fucked up shadows or visibly messy rendering, some are just stright up bizarre like the L Su portrait which is both way too detailed and then the guy just have up at some point and thr stripes on his waist cloth are literal rough cross hatches with the biggest fucking brush the guy had.... I mean come on, let's not do this. All respect to the dudes that worked on the mod, but let's also put some respect on the work of the professional artists that worked on the game.
>>534301376this pic is a perfect example of what I'm talking about: Is lady Trieu's art pretty damn good for a mod? Yes. Is it even close to the same quality of Shi Xie's? Absolutely not. Just look at them side by side...
How's it going fellas? Did you gus enjoy siege beta? Any news on TK rework?
I seriously hope you're just an ironic shitposter. Imagine actually caring about an eceleb in any way.
>>534311374Didnโt see a single eceleb say they liked it, I personally have zero interest in waiting a turn to attack so Iโll be modding siege attacker into every unit.
>>534311636Wtf I though CA Sofia was based and would fix everything
>>534311374I'm not Gus Breakingbad and I didn't play the siege beta. I just didn't feel like it. I played the AI rework betas, but this one just seemed too incorrect at a glance. The way they're going at it just feels wrong.
>Any news on TK rework?It will be a mid-size one, not one of the big reworks. Small mechanic, tech rework, hero/lord skill rework, building rework, which I guess is exactly what they need. Lizardmen get the same thing and also several blessed spawning units, they mentioned Chameleon Stalkers and Sacred Kroxigors but there's more
>>534311740They made one of the worst TW games ever made that was so bad they offered retroactive discounts, refunds and issued a grovelling apology.
>>534311872But the one Pharaohposter in these generals keeps claiming it's the best TW ever
>>534311132I will do this and I do think this, it is genuinely baffling to me if you think Lady Zhen looks fucking good or that someone like Dong Bai, Cai Yan or Guan Yinping isn't base game quality. I'm not really interested in starting a slapfight over this but yeah I fully believe it, it's bizarre to claim I'm not.
I have recruit defeated lords but they don't show up in my recruitment pool. What gives?
>>534311776Yeah i also think this siege rework will just be a weaste of time.
>TK rework?>It will be a mid-size oneHmmm. I wasnt expecting them to get a new mechanic but they need a little bit more than "mid-size". Hopefully they keep adding/changing after feedback.
hory shit Jack Justed is still working at CA
how did he managed after ToB ?
>>534312204don't take this the wrong way but I don't respect your opinion on art if that's the case and my immediate assumption is that you've never made or studied any art either. But sure, more power to you.
>>534312402Their faction needs to actually be dead and there should be a popup for them to join if so. If you're not getting the popup either your settings are fucked up or their faction isn't dead.
>>534311636>I personally have zero interest in waiting a turn to attack so Iโll be modding siege attacker into every unit.I'm old enough to remember when they made units under siege take attrition immediately because no one actually likes waiting (a few years ago)
really the only problem is that the maps are way too big
Why the fuck does wh3 keep giving me "go raid x faction" missions
I've never raided in a TW game and I never will, what a waste of fucking time when I can just conquer their cities.
>>534312564I'm not going to claim I have (at least not at the professional level, I've dabbled in digital art) no but if you're going to try to argue from a position of expertise I need to see your art before I can remotely take your criticisms of MTU seriously.
>>534312568I get the popup and accept, but nothing happens
>>534312721You can ignore/abort the missions.
But raiding might actually be important if they make sieges really hard. Raiding to force enemy to attack you should be a viable thing.
>Vermintide crisis
>creates undercities in basically every settlement, even AI ones
>when they do the thing that spawns an army from undercity, the resulting rat army doesn't even attack the AI city where it came from
>beelines straight to the player
HOLY FUCK I LOVE ANTI PLAYER BIAS SO MUCH
THIS IS SO MUCH FUN
>>534312721if you never raid as orcs you are playing the faction wrong
>>534312927They're not in your list of generals as recuperating? What faction? I'd download the mod configuration tool and check your settings.
>>534312783I'm not trying to argue from a position of expertise, that's why I asked you not to take the comment the wrong way. I've said my piece and mentioned some brief examples and you did the same. I've done this long enough that I know there's no effective language to convince someone else is wrong about a piece of art. There's no real point and it's fine. If you really perceive the MTU art as on par or better than the pro art then hey that's good for you at the end of the day. I believe (know) you're wrong but who cares?
>>534313213Count yourself lucky you've even seen the AI actually use the vermintide undercity building, I haven't
>>534313261I didn't play orcs yet.
>>534313134If sieges weren't a waste of time I could see it.
>>534312721Bro, your Norsca?
>>534313508If you're not arguing from a position of expertise in the actual subject matter how can you possibly type this drivel about how I'm objectively wrong? I have much more expertise in coding and have modded with PFM for years now and I can definitely say that some mods are on par with the pros at CA so I don't take that argument as any sort of given. Now I'm definitely never downloading TROM, BITCH.
>>534313401Nope. I play bretonnia and so far the lords have been legendary lords from mixu's lords, but the recruit mod says clearly it doesn't matter where the lord comes from, other mods should be compatible, but I guess not
>>534313987Download the mod configuration tool and check the settings, minor factions not transferring over lords might be on by default and if those Mixu lords are part of factions coded in as minor factions that might be the issue.
>>534313839Why would I play as norsca instead of a real chaos faction
>>534314440Because real chaos factions are easy toddler mode and Norsca actually has a difficulty
>>534314149Thanks, I set it to all heroes now so it should work
>>534313908the only reason I refered to it as "MTU vs pro" art was strictly as a descriptive differenciation. I was't trying to imply the pro art is somehow inherently superior to amateur art, although there's a strong corelation there for what it's worth.
>>534315379Already doing so.
>>534314750why would I purposefully gimp myself instead of playing in the most effective manner possible?
>>534315536It's a game, play it for fun
If everything is too easy its not fun, or maybe it is I dont possess such a mindset
The only way to save sieges is to stop the insides of the towns from being just a bunch of tight corridors. IE: Allow infantry to walk through buildings, or allow buildings to be garrissoned. (Wasn't that a thing in napoopan?)?
Until that time, sieges will always be shit because holding the walls is objectively worse than just waiting in the victory point where you have room to set up but the enemy is forced to bunch up in tight, easily contained corridors.
Cheatfags, why do I never see anyone posting about mods that add loreful LLs?
I just want some variety in a new campaign but I donโt know what to search in workshop. I do know about the Aekold as a lord mod that looks interesting.
Nagash mod looked way too OP, want something as vanilla like as possible.
>>534315094You were the one who said "but let's also put some respect on the work of the professional artists that worked on the game" as if I can't possibly compare any MTU art to the base game and claim it's on par because unlike the modders a professional worked on it. It's also implying that I'm somehow disparaging or not respecting the actual 3K artists when 3K has some of the most gorgeous art design in the series. As I said, if you are also not arguing from any position of expertise on art how exactly is there anything objective about this argument?
>>534305139More like this
>>534316053>Nagash mod looked way too OP, want something as vanilla like as possibleThat's the problem with cheaters, they always go way over the top with this shit
>>534316053Now that a mindbroken cheatsperg has responded to you I shant be giving any examples, sorry.
>>534312927They need to be actual legendary lords and not minor faction leaders and if they're from DLC you need to have it, are these both true?
>>534315491You are a good person anon!
>>534315890It's even worse than it seems because there are invisible walls making the corridors even narrower than they look.
>>534315379Recently started a campaign as Agamemnon but I just lost interest around 30 turns in.
Beta has ended. Have you participated anon? What are your thoughts?
>>534312442Probably didnt cost all that much, maybe with sales and viking autism they managed to break even
I mean all the animations in that game are straight from Attila
VGH an actual siege map...
>>534316196The reason it's disrespectful is primarily because you're saying a piece of art that's clearly inferior is on par with a much better one. The fact that they are pros is just added insult, because it's literally what they do for a living and you're just completely underplaying their work by putting it down to the level of some pretty good amateur art. Look man, it's fine. It was all banter for the most part. I see this has already gone off the rails so I'll just leave it here.
cheers
>>534317645Unironically ToBs siege maps were goat
I dont understand why they did what they did with Warhammer.
I mean, people say AI, but I thought the AI in Rome 2 and Attila was reasonably competent.
Not as good as a player, obviously, and exploits were rife, but they could usually get to the capture point without much in my experience.
It baffles me that people say "oh the ai couldnt handle the old maps" motherfucker the AI handled even the Constantinople map in Attila just fucking fine. What, because its not as good as a human, its unacceptable?
And then they made the somewhat more complex maps in Warhammer 3 and the AI does fine
Shit they even handle some of the modded maps fine.

>>534321540The guy I know is too short, blonde and Finnish to be Henry Cavill
>>534321919>FinnishWell yeah autism is just the natural finnish state of being
>>534321305>Many autistic individuals are drawn to dinosaurs due to the subject's inherent structure, predictability, and the vast amount of factual information available. This aligns with the autistic preference for concrete information and the ability to form detailed, structured knowledge systems. The extinction of dinosaurs also offers a sense of stability and permanence, as their characteristics and classifications are established and unlikely to change.
>>534322235No wonder dinofags throw ridiculously autistic hissyfits at the fact that dinosaurs had feathers

>you can't attack siege towers with melee units
Are you serious CA?
Sallying out with cavalry to sabotage the enemy siege works is basic fucking strategy
>>534321305Autists are immune to propaganda like that telling us that adults shouldn't think dinosaurs are cool.
Dinos didn't have feathers. Because that would make them lighter than steel.
>>534323138Well yeah that's how they could get so big
>>534319231Does it say something about me that I could actually recognize what the fuck this is supposed to be?
>>534323138that makes a trex a featherless biped
in other words, our direct ancestors.
>>534323017Honestly I cant think of any TW that allowed that
IIRC you could attack siege engines (catapults and such) in Medieval 2, and some infantry IIRC could run up to siege towers in Rome 2 and throw torches.
But yeah, it should be way more viable.
>>534323241Eh, that is one of the more recognizable ones, with the howdah and those things on the back. If you're like and play a ton of Warhammer I wouldnt think too much into
>>534322468Shit gets changed all the time, various species are combined or separated out or deleted entirely as new fossils get found or new techniques are used on existing fossils. Other species are updated regularly as researchers publish papers calling each other retarded and doing new analysis or simply refuting previous analysis.
People like them because they're cool.

>untick control large army on defensive siege battle to give myself an advantage
>actually garrison just doesn't reinforce at all
cmon man
>>534316916That's the issue since Mixu adds legendary lords to minor factions. But this setting apparently needs to be on all heroes. Still don't know if it works though as no minor faction has died yet after turning it on

Is skrolk the most depressing campaign in the game after danny? You would like to use his faction mechanics and maybe build some themed plaguerat armies but you can't because they all suck and you have to build the cheesiest weapon team armies just to say alive and at that point you wish that you were just playing ikkit instead.
>>534325746Vermintide Skrolk was playable before OOD. Does Skulltaker fuck that hard?
>>534325746The most depressing is Khalida's her campaign just flat out sucks the enemies around you sucks she sucks her buff for archers sucks and makes no sense her start position sucks its just shit all around
>>534325746You can do it and they don't suck, they're not as strong as overpowered other factions but they're good because they're rats
I think its a fun campaign for rats
>>534326327>makes no senseI mean isnt archery like her whole thing in the fluff?
>>534325746clanrats are meta
>>534326432Yes but...she has to stand next to her archers to give them the buff and its a tiny circle when she's also a duelist its silly
>>534326383they are a t3 unit that struggles with fucking saurus warriors
>>534326817to be fair everyone struggles against saurus warriors you should shoot em instead of fighting em

>>534326432I'd say her main thing is hating vampires and Neferata specifically.
>>534326817The Saurus should be fighting slaves while you flank with your monks.
You need dedicated Warlord+Slave armies with your real ones if you want to play like that. You need to outnumber them, which is soulful and lore accurate.
I'm going through my ancient reaction images folder and sorting things into /twg/ that I just never did, what's the context of this image? Not the eat all the eggs part, the chicken part. Is it just a joke on liggers or was there a more specific reference

What's the "difference" between the Elemental Bear and the Incarnate Elemental of Beasts?
It seems like Bear has slightly better defensive stats and a breath, where the IEOB has an aoe damage aura and faster speed.
Is this a case of one being strictly better than the other like some monsters, or do they have different roles? I've searched online before this post and everything I could find is threads where people overwhelmingly dunk on one or the other as unusable.
>>534327432>reworkWe should just call it what it is, a tweak.
>>534326817They don't struggle if you use your other rat abilities properly
Ever heard of wither? The skill that gets doubly buffed
>>534328045i'd rather be using my winds on vermintide and plague than on making sure my t3 unit doesn't lose to t1 unit
>>534328590>I don't want to solve the problem I want to be mad
>>534327778Bear is supposed to be a generalist/jack of all trades while the beast is supposed to be anti-infantry/anti-blob but it doesn't really matter that much
Beasts is arguably better since you need more options against infantry than you do vs large, but they're really just interchangeable
>>534327778I think they're pretty 1:1 seeing as Kislev's roster is a clusterfuck made worse with SoC but if I wanted to split hairs I'd say the Elemental Bear is more of a lineholder with Frostbite and its aura slowing units from moving out of the fight and its greater mass meaning it'll push stuff away. Incarnate is more for moving and singling out other SEM's. I'd still prefer Incarnate 9/10 times but I also don't really use either. I'll defer to the Kislev experts(if they exist) but I think the consensus that the Incarnate is just better because it's less of a fat target
>>534322468FUCKING WOKE FEATHERS REEEEEEEEE
>>534327778the beast is pretty much just better. the bear has to get off its breath attacks to do as well as the beast does just standing there. the bear is cooler though. literally how does a fucking deer man giant have anything to do with slavshit?

>>534328647>creating yourself problems just so you can solve them
>>534329046More than likely CA was in need of a big, centerpiece unit and came upon the Incarnates. The fact that Stanky is supposed to be all attuned to the wild probably sealed the deal.
That said, it is fairly faithful to the lore. Human wizards can make pacts or use scrolls of binding to use monsters in battle. Theres a Forge World book that has a story about Tileans and Estalians using Skin Wolves, Manticores, a Warpfire Dragon and Mournguls against each other.
Of course, thats way to many charlemagnes for CA, so we'll probably never see that outside of mods
>>534328590You can use plague and wither, wither is low in cost
Vermintide is overrated and only good for cheese shit
>>534329673I never bought her, so Im wondering: does Ostankya even have the lore of beasts?
>>534329838No, she uses the Lore of Hags. The hero-level hag witches do have a Lore of Beasts variety.
>>534329838She's got her own lore with expensive debuffs, healing, and a nuke
Her hag witch heroes have it though
>>534329838I think she had a combination lore between beasts and shadow prior to the SoC changes that added in the lore of hags.
>>534329673it looks like that native american deer man meme though, not anything russian.
>Mourngulsand why are these vampire coast units? they have nothing to do with water or pirates and even their description is about mountains.
>>534330543CA has never been very concerned with things making sense. I mean, there are characters in the game that are dead by the time Karl Franz becomes Emperor.
>mourngulsSame reason as last time. They needed some monsters and reddit is not about to complain for another toy to consoooom
>>534330543Because CA decided to expand a 10-or-so unit White Dwarf army list into a full fledged faction
>>534331415I will maintain that Harkon should have been a VC FLC lord with reskinned zombies, nothing more.
Imagine all the charlemagnes that went into VCoast that could have been used for something else

Does exploitative planning even work? Or does it take an EXTRA turn after activation to begin churning out food? My rats are starving and I've been in the red forever despite having multiple battles a turn and a fairly large underground network.
>>534330896>>534331638why not make up another type of zombie sea creature like a zombie octopus or a shark ghost? mournguls are just completely out of place.
>>534331691it takes an extra turn after activating since it's an end-of-turn effect to add the food and corruption.
>fairly large underground networkThis isn't always ideal for food, each undercity consumes 1 per turn so unless you're funneling money in to the food buildings it's probably not helping that much, you can hover over the food UI element and see what all is giving/taking food each turn (at the end of last turn).
>deep in the red foreveridk what caused that in your campaign but I'd say bumping minor settlements up to t2 or t3 is not worth it (until you have a ton of food), or maybe if you grabbed all the "plans" research options, those increase your food capacity by 30 and can make it harder to get out of red. The campaign level AI not churning shitstacks of t1 infantry and sending them at you as much as they did in game 2 feels like it slowed down the food acquisition from battles too.
