Hey! 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.

>>534150129
gay

>>534150103
Hero stacking is an intended mechanic and not cheating. You have no argument against it.

>>534150991
total war is an army battling game not a hero fighting one.

>>534151593
it's an army of heroes

>>534151593
You 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.

>>534151593
armies can be comprised of heroes. there's no contradiction there

>>534151830
first 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.

>>534152346
If it's intended and outright encouraged by the devs it is not cheating. Sorry, fag, you lost.

>>534152583
you 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.

>>534152583
NOOOOOO

Oh ffs some GCCM maps just crashes to desktop when battle starts.

>>534152884
Sun 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!

>>534152583
it'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.

>>534154414
Also, 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.

>>534154592
ikit is hard coded to sail to lustria and attack you at least

>>534153335
Sun 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).

>>534154937
Complete 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.

>>534155159
Imagine unironically comparing Sun Quan to Augustus... Just think about what you've done for a second.

>>534155390
Imagine 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.

>>534155694
name 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

>>534156007
Cao Cao yes. Sima Yi was also a giga fraud jew.

captcha: wwaht

>>534155983
Refusing 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.

>>534156356
none 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.

>>534156862
It 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.

>>534157191
Warhammer lore.

>>534157113
neither 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 fantasy
You 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.

>>534157556
Who said it was a gotcha?

>>534157635
turns 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 individuals
Lmao tell me you know nothing about the period without telling me you know nothing about the period.

>>534157191
What about Africa everything below the congo lore?
>nothing happens for thousands of years until colonised and then interesting shit starts happening

>>534158089
we 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 hellstorms

yep, 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.

>>534165353
you've never made a gorebull stack led by a doombull? fucking absurd army

>>534165353
I 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).

>>534165453
I 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.

>>534165353
Vampire stack as Isabella is fun

>>534165567
>no hero on any army
how do you cast magic?
>I don't
that doesn't sound fun
>cultists
I haven't actually got to play with the monogod chaos factions, only warrior of chaos.

>>534165702
Many 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?

>>534166195
there's nothing similar

>>534166195
Because it has a lot of good elements but is broken and needs a rework from the ground up. Shame we will never see it

>>534166396
Age Of Wonders 4 is kinda similar i've been enjoying that

>>534166476
battles 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.

>>534165353
There'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.

>>534165589
All order factions have ridiculous heroes.

>>534167064
So If I'm playing empire I could have
>witch hunter
>battle priest
>empire captain
>wizard
>engineer
On 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.

>>534167258
Captains 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).

>>534167815
Nice. 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

>>534169129
I put every hero type in my army and fill the rest of the slots with the same unit

>>534169234
prove 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

>>534169349
I don't have TWW3 on my phone

>>534169556
ngmi

>>534169406
boar bouys
more blorcs for the pile of violence

>>534167815
Captains 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.

>>534169406
If 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

>>534167258
Captains 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.

>>534169406
orc boar boyz for some backline harassment?

>>534169678
>>534169721
>>534169813
thanks for the tips for now I'll go with this, then try and get that tier 5 spider artillery i guess, is it good? is it a replacement for doom divers?

I just give Gorbad an arty or two, a few heroes and fill in the rest of the slots with Blorcs

horse archers are so unbelievably fun in 3k

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

>>534167258
Yes then get 15 missile/artillery and you are set

>>534169901
part 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 tier
You'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
>thunderbarge
army solo-er, the rest is irrelevant flavor

>>534170882
yeah i think i'll keep some around i guess

>>534171317
What's funny is I never actually seem to see or hear them shooting but they always absolutely rack em up every time

>>534169129
Fighter 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 don’t like taking more than one hero that doesn’t pull their weight in combat

>>534171361
what's shrigma

>>534169129
Melee 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.

>>534172306
Good things come to those who wait.
- Ancient Horsham proverb

>>534172069
That's funnier than I expected.

>>534172165
If 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.

>>534172496
Yeah like Duke Nukem Forever right?

reminder that tomb kings exist, because I know that you forgot

>>534172910
they released that too early

>>534154358
the 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

>>534174917
How do we know Paris was real?

>>534172496
omens of destruction was dogshit

>>534175192

>>534175438
if 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

Tides of Delay

So why can't I load a save from battle directly?

>>534174917
This 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 changeling
True
>skulltaker
I 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
>gorbad
At least it isn’t just ‘op auto win’ and even dares you to use shit you might otherwise not. I’m sure there’s 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.

>>534176447
Thinking 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 work
Are you implying CA doesn’t?

>>534176447
They'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 Södermalm, Stockholm. With about 180 experienced and skilled employees,

>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 couldn’t name anyone that anyone’s ever heard of as LH’s
>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.

>>534176197
it was the original crossover fanfic.

>>534177695
It'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

>>534177695
Slaanesh 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.

>>534177927
Worst part is you’re 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 can’t get a lord pack out in a year is supposed to drop a mega dlc in 2026? Yeah ok.
CA are fucking shot.

>>534179551
Poop standing, coward

>>534179664
Not 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 I’m 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

>>534177695
I 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

>>534180626
I get what you’re 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.

>caravans are merchants but cooler, and should be something everyone civilized should be able to do

If 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.

>>534181470
Don't forget the Tower of Zharr mechanic, people have made really good mods that add it to the High Elves and Kislev

>>534181676
Oh, I haven't played the chorfs yet, so I'm not familiar with how it works.

>>534181814
Basically 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.

>>534182375
Kislev 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.

>>534182375
That'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?

>>534182979
Often 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.

>>534177695
I 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.

>>534181470
This
Paradox, as cancerous as it is with dlc numbers, got it right with dlc adding to the base game over time

>>534181470
thats 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

>>534183663
they are behind on storypoints

>>534173317
Man they're such a cool concept but so dogshit to play it seems almost spiteful on CA's part.

>>534177695
>>you literally couldn’t name anyone that anyone’s ever heard of as LH’s
What about Boris Todbringer's 12 year old wife to really make it ToT?

>>534182375
Oh 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.

>>534182607
Remember 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.

>>534186087
Not 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

>>534175801
Golgfag is a fun campaign that synergised well with the Ogres rework. The other 2 I'll agree with as being subpar.

>>534186568
how is an unloseable campaign where diplomacy, gold, meat, empire building etc doesn't matter at all fun?

>>534186087

Should 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.

>>534186087
Just enable cheats where you can pick the trait
>But that's cheating
So is loading traits from other campaigns

>>534189297

>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 we’re 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?

>>534215698
I 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.

>>534215698
I dont play anymore but did I did paint some models way back
I had tyranids and spess muhreens

Incorrect, in Rome 1 and 2 Judea is historically a client state of Egypt even though it's represented as being owned by them. In Rome 2 and Attila Judea can also split off as its own faction that is presumably outright led by Jews. Imperator Augustus even has Judea as its own faction iirc.

>>534226873
reading 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

>>534227221
I 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.

>>534231804
those migrants are needed for the empire to function because the romans are too lazy to work

>>534238645
What 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.

>>534240996
In 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

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...

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

Absolutely. But will never happen.

True. It has a lot of great things about it, but I could never get in to it. Always found it somewhat boring.

>>534243720
It 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.

No surprise. When you draw such garbage, you clearly have no soul, so naturally, you'd fall into some soulless pitfalls such as becoming a furry, scalie, tranny etc (not mutually exclusive either).

That’s wrong, it was out for years before 3 came out. It was just hit or miss how quickly they got around to updating the repacks with the latest DLC.

To be fair to Sigvald he had just defeated Krell.

>>534172306
They said they weren't happy with the original implementation and needed the time to make it more fun.
That could mean anything from adding a bit more stuff to it or scrapping the original mechanics entirely and starting from scratch.

These kislevites and their stealth archers are really grinding my gears

>>534281304
Reminder that Imrik and Alith Anar are the most racist High Elves and the ones that get the most shit done unlike all those pansies on Ulthuan. You just know their race has failed when the Everqueen does more than the average Elf warlord to stop Chaos.

ENTER

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.

>>534284050
More like exit because in another dumb move GW removed him.

>>534284265

can different races breed in warhammer fantasy? is there an example of a half-elven/half-human or half-dawi?

>>534286548
Yes/no, depending on the source. Most strict lore says NO.

>>534286548
I think there was a half-elf Bretonnian knight at one point

>>534286548
There were half elves in some very early novels and 1st edition of RPG
99,9% no longer canon, any other response is cope

>>534286548
it'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.

Don't think it's compatible with TUP and I can't live without TUP so no.

>>534289052
I'm pretty sure there are compatibility mods for those two.

>>534289249
There'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.

>>534289637
fair 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. I'll just build my homebrews on top of it going forward...

Haman soon, friends

>>534292561
If 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....

>>534294375
MTU 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.

The 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 protection

Even without ET, the only one worthy of being the Phoenix King was Aenarion. People are just lorelets or screaming "druchii propaganda" as if it'll change the lore.

>>534240996
Yeah every time I think about giving Elspeth another try I remember how miserable it is to fight sieges with gun heavy armies.

just saved my entire army with a shield of faith in time from a warrior priest, maybe your nuke will work next time, Ikit

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 wall
Dumber than TWW AI

>>534299105
Towers 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.

>>534295065
MTU 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)

>tits
I 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.

>>534299496
There 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?

>>534299803
Not 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.

>>534299105
Not having indestructible sections of wall in between the tiny breaches you can make.

>>534299803
Nurgle
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.

>>534299803
I'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.

>>534299385
I'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

>>534300110
Yeah 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

>>534299612
If 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.

>>534300497
You 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 canon
i dont accept their retcons

>>534300734
But 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

>>534300497
I 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

>>534299920
Uh, 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

What would your dream beastcoomer mod be?

>>534302847
For beastcoomeranon to come back.

God, I just love Grom's cauldron

Now that is siege beta is over, what LL is the best for having to interact as little as possible with the shitty old sieges?

>>534303071
How is he for buffing goblin armies besides his own
I've been thinking about doing a gobbo run and can't decide between him or skarsnik

>>534302847
I want a mod that has (you) as the legendary general fucking all the legendary ladies (and a few mob women like the vampires), not of that "the whole army fucks them" that's cuck shit.
I would even play as beastmemes just for that if it was specifically the genderal doing all the fucking instead of giving the girl to his dudes like a fag.

I prefer Grom due to his start position

I like the current iteration of zeta's turning beastmen and greenskins into futas and the combat animations.

Just wish the animations were compatible with more types.

>>534302847
Them wearing more armor.

ffs cryswar's mod seems like the best there is for lords, shame it isn't being updated. I know there is a submod patch but the thing is the compatibility is still outdated which makes all my other mods useless.

>>534302847
Tamurkhan'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.

>>534304460
Original DonutSteel McDaemonPrince

>>534302847
Just 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:

https://youtube.com/watch?v=Ufy7CDXZRzM

Do Beastmen wait after battle to rape women or do they do it during the battle?

>legendfag posting at the same time as the coomer discord raid
nooticing

>>534307717
If you look at the coomer mods website you’ll 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?

>>534307983
Legend purged his discord of all troons because they were posting tranime and he hates it as much as we do.

It’s actually one of the reasons the legend hating sperg cries about legend every day, he hates Indians and coomers.

This general is for discussion of total war video games, not tranime and gay ERP

Most beastcoomer posts don't feel sincere and just seem like a deliberate attempt to derail discussion.

It is night.

was my experience all beta never turning this bullshit on when its live fuck you CA wasting our time with this dogshit instead of finishing the DLC (which I will not pay for as penance for making me wait this long)

>>534308801
Funny you should say that legendtroon, all you ever discuss is your e-daddy and a non-existent 40k Total War. You've not once posted a screenshot of any campaign you're playing.

>>534308801
You're the one who brought it up so you could suck an eceleb's dick, retard.

>>534309146
If you follow the thread back properly you’ll see in fact I did not bring it up, the other guy accused legendchads of being coomers. A disgusting and dishonest claim.

Never posted any off-topic NSFW shitposting, you might be having a schizophrenic break. Still not seeing any campaign posts or discussion of game mechanics, just justification of your off-topic posts about an e-celeb and a game that does not exist.

There’s a particularly neurodivergent individual who gets extremely upset anytime legend, positive 40k (legend said 40k is coming and he’s excited), negative pharaoh (legend said it was bad), doom stacking (legend does it), corner camping (legend does it) etc discussion happens.

>>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.

>>534301376
this 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.

>>534311374
Didn’t see a single eceleb say they liked it, I personally have zero interest in waiting a turn to attack so I’ll be modding siege attacker into every unit.

>>534311636
Wtf I though CA Sofia was based and would fix everything

>>534311374
I'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

>>534311740
They made one of the worst TW games ever made that was so bad they offered retroactive discounts, refunds and issued a grovelling apology.

>>534311872
But the one Pharaohposter in these generals keeps claiming it's the best TW ever

>>534311132
I 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?

>>534311776
Yeah i also think this siege rework will just be a weaste of time.
>TK rework?
>It will be a mid-size one
Hmmm. 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 ?

>>534312204
don'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.

>>534312402
Their 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 I’ll 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.

>>534312564
I'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.

>>534312568
I get the popup and accept, but nothing happens

>>534312721
You 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

>>534312721
if you never raid as orcs you are playing the faction wrong

>>534312927
They're not in your list of generals as recuperating? What faction? I'd download the mod configuration tool and check your settings.

>>534312783
I'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?

>>534313213
Count yourself lucky you've even seen the AI actually use the vermintide undercity building, I haven't

>>534313261
I didn't play orcs yet.
>>534313134
If sieges weren't a waste of time I could see it.

>>534312721
Bro, your Norsca?

>>534313508
If 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.

>>534313401
Nope. 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

>>534313987
Download 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.

>>534313839
Why would I play as norsca instead of a real chaos faction

>>534314343
Me.

>>534314440
Because real chaos factions are easy toddler mode and Norsca actually has a difficulty

>>534314149
Thanks, I set it to all heroes now so it should work

>>534313908
the 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.

Be good, Play pharaoh

>>534315379
Already doing so.

>>534314750
why would I purposefully gimp myself instead of playing in the most effective manner possible?

>>534315536
It'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 don’t 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.

>>534315094
You 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?

>>534305139
More like this

>>534316053
>Nagash mod looked way too OP, want something as vanilla like as possible
That's the problem with cheaters, they always go way over the top with this shit

>>534316053
Now that a mindbroken cheatsperg has responded to you I shant be giving any examples, sorry.

>>534312927
They 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?

>>534315491
You are a good person anon!

>>534315890
It's even worse than it seems because there are invisible walls making the corridors even narrower than they look.

>>534315379
Recently 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?

>>534312442
Probably 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
