They sure don't, but they're also warring a lot more often in the Empire. For most threats in Bretonnia, the knights and yeomen can handle it, only for the occasional big threat do they levy the peasantry.

>>168192801
The unit I'm most excited for with bretonnia are questing knights.

Cheap but good and durable armor piercing anti-large cavalry. less of a charge bonus than regular bret cav but good at taking out elites.

>>168194413
That would be hilarious but at the same time Eshin is one of the big 4 for the Skaven so I'd be surprised not to see them represented anyway.

>>168194461
I'd love to see Grail Knights, if they make them like the should be in the lore, near unstoppable forces but very few in number.

Though chances are they'll remain the same as they in game already, average unit size for cavalry, and only using lances.

>>168194404
I could dig a Dogs of War DLC. Exotic soldiers that can be recruited instantly, balanced out with an unholy upkeep, also balanced with a randomized pool of what is and what isn't recruitable.

>>168194632
Alright lads let's decide for good.

http://www.strawpoll.me/12329033

>>168194632
Grail knights are amazing though.

could have a buff to their damage resistance, but they're beast. They have insane charge stats. which is befitting lance cavalry.

Their charge is powerful enough that usually armor or large targets don't really matter.

But a bit more toughness. Like lore of life or beast magic could also help. The fey enchantress was always a great lore of life user. In the book she could take any lore. Which when i played usually meant using either light or life. Life with its huge boost to toughness, or light for just making grail knights tear through units. Also her chalice always allowed her to cast a random heavens spell. would be neat if it was incorporated as an item. even if it ends up just being lightning bolt.

>>168194769
To be fair, there's a difference between tabletop representation and lore representation.

>>168194710
It'd be neat if their upkeep was based on how much you're willing to pay them. If someone else will pay more, then you'll lose control of them to the higher bidder. Like you type in what your willing to pay for their upkeep, and it can be a bidding mechanic.

>>168194769
As a long time fan of warhammer and bretonnia.

Its obvious.

Its Blood knights. with Marked Chosen knights afterwards, and grail knights 3rd.

That said. Giles and Abhorrash are bros2deth

>>168195020
Sorry, I should have specified. The poll is meant to be completely fluffy.

>>168194953
>Grail knights are amazing though.

Sure but their representation could be better, it's weird to have them be the same size as a normal cavalry unit.

Also they should switch to sword when in combat, after the initial charge.

>>168195107
Well by the fluff, grail knights can do shit like kill greater daemons with just a touch, and emit light which banishes undead.

>>168195108
Weird to have full unit size of the other elite knights as well.

>>168195310
Make the units progressively smaller, of course!

>>168195310
I think it works.

On table top though any unit of grail knights would probably out number blood or chaos knights almost 2-1. with grail knights usually deployed in groups of 9 compared to the other units 5.

so taking in to account that they're fighting equal number of superior cavalry i think they do well.

I can't wait for questing knights though since I think they'll pair well with grail knights. Questing knights sitting in a combat pinning a unit in place while the grail knights cycle charge. and with both units only being slightly more expensive then the opposing cav. Questing knights as armor piercing very armored and shielded cav is going to be really great. even if they don't get anti-large they'll be a good compliment in cav battles against elite cav.

>>168195020
That would be cool, although someone else being able to pay more may be relevant on the culture.

Perhaps a rival imperial province, or a bretonnian kingdom, or a southern nation, or Fortress Kislev... or even a Dawi clan.

I don't imagine Dawi mercs would take a contract offered by the Von Carsteins or an Orc.

Perhaps divide the Mercs into 2 groups based on which faction they'd be more likely to serve?

>>168195310
If it bothers you that much, you can use PFM to shrink the unit size.

I'm pretty sure Dogs of War can be taken by anyone. They always work for the highest bidder.

I think if they ever did combine forces they would easily surpass 100,000 soldiers.

The thing is with the Empire, they are so used to getting fucked on so many different fronts, that it's rare to see state troops from different states fighting together. There are exceptions when there are huge battles, usually ending in the deaths of several characters (see Marius Leitdorf fighting alongside Karl Franz at the 3rd battle of Black Fire Pass).

I wouldn't consider End Times in this example simply because each sides numbers got bloated so much by merging all the factions together.

Best bet is to go by artwork in my opinion.

When the Warhammer humblebundle I was thinking about getting it then I realized I've barely touched a Total War game since playing Rome a bunch in like 2005 despite owning a bunch on steam.

So I booted up Shogun 2 last sunday and holy shit I played like 8 hours a day all week and finally finished my first campaign. Chosukabe on hard. Tried not to save and load too much even after losing some big battles and had so much fun crawling my way back.

Only thing that sucked was is the AI is retarded when it comes to its navy and actually broken when it comes to naval combat. It's constantly throwing 2 or 3 ships into my big stacks of high level ships. Then during battle it will often not move ships or run them to the edge of the map. Apparently CA broke it in a patch and never fixed it.

I'm think I'm gonna do a medieval 2 campaign next then maybe get Fall of the Samurai because that looks cool as hell. The Warhammer universe is way too goofy for my tastes.

Anyways it was stupid, fucking elves. Yeah I'm a noob with my 104 kill mounted bow yeomen and grail knight heroic wall I ended up having to kill the empire and then turn onto dwarf flank. my artillery did decent considering that most of the map they were crossing a forest.

>>168204453
Also my favorite unit in the bretonnian arsenal is the mounted yeomen. ranged against enemies that can out melee it, decent charge means they can do well against ranged or artillery on the charge and can shoot both going into and leaving combat while being decently fast. Mounted yeomen are great. heroic peasants are the best.

>>168204526
>Mounted yeomen are great.

I wish I knew how to do well with them.

All they do is fire wet noodles for me that barely hurt the enemy unless I have them sit still and concentrate on them for a minute or so but then that leaves them exposed.

>>168204818
I'm sad I didn't save that replay

But they're better in multiplayer where the AI doesn't have god tier micro. but you ideal want to shoot lightly armored big targets (trolls, crypt horrors, manticores) or other lightly armored unshielded infantry,

Stay away from enemy range units

UNLESS
1. they are occupied elsewhere
2. you are in their flanks or rear.

And by all means if you are in the flanks or rear your should be charging those missile units or artillery. since with a charge bonus of 10, they have 28 melee attack and 32 weapon strength and against the flanks/rear of those lighter units a charge is devastating.

and then immediately run out and while you retreat you fire some more shots into their disorganized rear while retreating.


and then when things start breaking you can use them to run down worth while units

>>168204818
In another game I had them get into melee with some wild rider units in woods. they escaped with only about 24 left. but after winning the rest of the cavalry engagement they were able to come back and still get 44 kills some of which where one wildwood rangers and others chasing down some fleeing woodelf infantry or engaging goblin cavalry forcing them off the field.

You have to manually use them for their best effects though, and only put them on skirmish mode when not directly microing them and their not facing against arrows.

I've had games where even though they don't get tons of kills, the ability to distract ranged units away from a more fragile to ranged pole arm line allowing them to close relatively unmolested.

>>168204818
Still another game. Used them to take out some dwarf cannons in a dwarf artillery build. which was good because he took two cannons and I had two trebs. So i really needed to keep my trebs alive.

So, how would they fall prey to a daemonette?

And the dwarf players deployment. An army with a lot of armor peircing with quarrelers with great weapons and hammers, and two cannons. as well as the slayers. Also note that its a cannon army with a master engineer. with plenty of ranged support.

Especially tricky considering my army is a Peasant Crafstman trebuchet build, with two rank 6 trebs as artillery. So even though I brought artillery I'm wondering if I can actually win the artillery exchange. I need my artillery to take out his infantry. but I can't ignore the cannons with the master engineer.

Space marines don't have penises. so the slaaneshi daemonettes just kinda try to kill them the old fashioned way. using lots of wonderful pain. Taking pleasure in inflicting pain is also a way a space marine can fall. especially if its against the great enemey. Or other excesses. extreme adrenaline combat highs + stimms leading to greater thrills. Bonus points if the space marine was already fighting Khorne.

Slaanesh is more than just lust. You should think more along the lines of decadence and excess. An example would be noise marines seek perfect sound/music.

Marines can still fall to chaos, the hypno conditioning isn't 100% guaranteed to protect them. Standard procedure for marines that fought demons is mind wiping them to be sure.

Slaanesh can also take hold on your soul from pride, which the marines are all about, and other stuff.

a half unit of hammers got kited away and are now being torn apart by peasant bowmen in the far distance, and not pictured is a unit of hammerers and quarrelers who got distracted chasing my mounted yeomen off the field.

I lure his main blob away from my infantry by luring him with my damsel (who knew dwarfs were so easily swayed by feminine wiles) which is good as it allows more time for my artillery to fire into that blob.

revenge of the dwarves as they scatter my forces. but i just flee. hit returning hammerer and quarreler units are substantial threats. as is his lord. but my artillery has shattered his dwarf warriors, while being shattered by a 32 dwarf hammer unit that ended up in the far back of my line. (he was skirmishing with my peasant bowmen)

a bad loss, but they were worth it.

I retreat back using my superior mobility

I take out that 32 dwarf hammer unit with my knights. down to only 9 grail knights, but worth the 80 kills they have. especially on key units like hammerers.

The peasant trebuchet crew has come back, they'll get one shot off on the hammers before being slaughtered by his lord.

and my peasants skirmish with his quarrelers. using their superior numbers to make up for quality.

If I remember correctly, the army fielded during the End Times was said to surpass even the army fielded during the Great War, so it was probably somewhere between 100k - 150k men. But good third of them died of plague and Beastmen raids before they made it to the front.

>>168208704
To be fair they're pretty protected by the Empire. All they really have to deal with is Beastmen/Orcs/along the coast Raiders.

I mean it's pretty much in their lore they're so protected from the major dangers they go out seeking it (Think Grail quests/Crusades.)

>>168208735
the fight with the dwarf heroes takes one minute, as i mop up fleeing forces.

Hope you enjoyed my battle report, and show casing how i use mounted yeomen to support my army

here's the final battle tallies
Peasant men at arms with almost 90 kills. bowmen were solid. grail knights with 90 kills. treps with 97 and 70 kills, mounted yeomen doing tons of work that allowed for those kill counts.

you can see with 90 kills on his artillery despite me taking them out early.

4 units of warriors did nothing but that was due to them being destroyed by my artillery.

>>168208872

not to mention being closer to rat men and tree cunts.

>I know is fantasy and shit

>>168208704
Better tactics.

While empire survived with technology. bretonnia always used older units but with special tactics. defensive stakes, lance and arrow formation, flaming arrows. And a martial pride that makes their young nobles want to charge headlong into any battle.

To me I always liked how the peasants were secretly bad ass. And i'm talking about mounted yeomen. always one of my favorite units on the table top. Just super versatile.

>>168208704

They didn't :^)

>>168209046
Yeah but they're just raids, never full on invasions so they recover in time.

Elves are only a issue if you live near the forrest or they have their summer time murder party.

The rats tend to do their "we're staying hidden so no one must know about us" bullshit so they never do much to anyone outside picking people off the streets.

This is all in terms of like, the average day though, once things hit the fan they got fucked so hard.

>>168209368
And despite all the fucking they got in an undead civil war they still sent a crusade out to help the empire.


Bretonnia is based. but empire fans just keep calling them elf cucks.

Mousillon is Bretonnia's big bad evil enemy I think, you wouldn't think it looking at the map however.

>>168209475
In the lore the bretonnians should deal with a lot more orcs and beastmen.

they have massive orcal in the game. but no orcs spawn there so it makes central bretonnia very safe in comparisson to the empire.

Also Kemmler should be fucking up bretonnia with undead.

>>168209474
I mean pretty much.

I meant more with the End Times shit show but really who cares about that crap anyway.


>>168209475

>>168209146
>>168208872

Yeah, but I never understood that.
The majority of their forces are peasants (right?), which have a shitty life so I'd assume they have a terrible morale. Why fight to defend the status quo when it treats you like shit?

Then the core of their armies are... a bunch of guys in fucking horses.
The Empire has magic and powder and steam tanks... but have you seen Sir Podrick in his horse? Oooooh yeah, now that's something.

Is Bretonnia a kingdom-size sect?

I know about the whore of the pond and their magic fueled knights, but whatever.

Unlike in total war warhammer, Bretonnia was mostly cavalry.

Every noble in bretonnia is raised knowing that he's there to protect his land. and as such trains as a knight. A knight doesn't even get recognized as such until they're seen achieving a victory on the battlefield. And they're well trained, well equiped, use advanced cavalry tactics, have thoroughbred warhorses.

It wasn't strange for me to bring 40+ knights to a game, while still having trebs and bowmen. when most of my opponents would have 5 knights. and more infantry.

Also in the table top, knghts inspired peasants. each individual knight had a mini generals aura for peasants.

And peasants are dirt cheap with good equipment so they can be spammed and boosted with magic and knights leadership.

Bretonnians don't really see peasants as a force to win a war. just to be there to hold a line so the knights can charge in. The knights want to charge in and there's plenty of knights who refuse to give peasants glory, and they ride only with posses of knights. and Bretonnia has a shit ton of knights. since every single noble man is a knight and honor bound to fight when called. Also magic imbues them with power and they train to accomplish legendary feats etc.

tl:dr, Its fucking magic.

great, that will make it easier for SEGA to rig the thing

so can someone tell me what estalia , tilea and the border princes IRL equivalent are supposed to be ?

i know that :
empire = HRE
wastelands : HRE too but not imperials
bretonnia = France
kislev = russia
ind = india
nippon = japan
Cathay = china
norsca = vikings
albion = britain but with just druids
araby = arabs

>>168209368

I never said that. But you clearly implied that a setting becomes better if you just come up with retarded names for everything, which is bullshit. But I'm sure the kingdom of gu'glaroks would beg to differ right?

All what they write is supposed to be ironic and shitty, but maybe thats by accident, not purpose

>>168211653
I don't think there is anything to argue, it's clearly fucking garbage

Of course that doesn't mean Warhammer isn't still fun and entertaining and has lots of solid factions and units, but the world is really nothing more than a lazy excuse for those people to fight each other

Let's be honest the epic realms of Araby and Nippon is something you come up with when you are 13

It was satire but the more recent writers thought it was serious, but certain naming conventions do fit. Orcs are brutish so won't think of exemplar words, khornates constantly bay for blood so while someone may have many titles they become blood and skull in khornate

Honestly speaking, I find WH's load time pretty acceptable. Even on a laptop hdd the game still takes less than a minute to fully load the map. The worst offender of loading time has to be Rome 2, shit always take 2~3 minutes to get into campaign map, at least for me.

>>168216694
in my case its the empire that has the weird super long load times, which is odd, because ones it loads it runs fine

>>168216694
R2 loads fine for me, it's S2 that takes ages even for the main menu, don't know why

>>168217140
S2 takes fucking forever to apply any graphical changes and it has a very long load when you first launch the game and wait for the menu to pop up

Him being alive and in game would conflict with literally everything the High Elves and Dark Elves are about.

>>168218543
we know they are gonna be added at some point , the leaked map show their area being expended they probably gonna have like bretonnia units added never seen on the tabletop

>>168218352

>>168218464
i totally forgot about him , i added him

>>168218543
Confirmed leak+map area confirms that they'll be in at some point before Ogres.

The faction leader for Tomb Kings has to be Nagash. There's no way they wouldn't make it so.

>>168218865
Settra rules the Tomb Kings. Nagash has his own army with a combined TK+VC roster called the Undead Legions.

>>168218856
post it

Well, for some reason my VC campaign file won't load, so I started an Empire GC. Is it just me or are they harder? I don't seem to be able to expand nearly as quickly as when I was using the undead.

>>168219072
Probably because you actually get attacked when playing as Empire

Community manager confirmed it to be true (but "outdated") in a leddit thread which I can't be assed to find. So far the only thing it's been wrong about is that Wood Elves were the 6th DLC, not the 5th. Although the files still listed them as DLC 5.

Oh, also the fact that the leak stated that the Wood Elf DLC would have "additions to Beastmen and Bretonnia", which combined with CA's original statements on Bretonnian release would imply that Brets were originally supposed to release as FLC alongside Wood Elves.

I think that you should expect everything listed in the leak to be added to the game at some point, although the release order might change

Ignore the other guy, space marines do have penises (and way larger than normal human's at that, at least according to the few sources that talk about the matter) and do feel lust, but it's like the saying of "they shall know no fear". They DO know fear, they just have mastered it beyond what any normal human could hope, so they might as well be fearless when it matters. They still have that sense of danger and precaution, since without fear they would be straight up suicidal 24/7. Same with lust, except, well, it's not like they get a lot of opportunities to feel lusty in the first place considering their lifestyle, and when they do they react the same way. But if a daemonette spent all day long for a long while tempting a space marine, he might eventually turn into a horndog. They're not infallible.

Has any one added a horde greenskin faction yet that actually feels complete and not cobbled together shit?

What unique traits do you guys think each of the new factions will have?

Bretonia: grail paths
Chaos Dwarfs: underways
Ogres: food highways
Skaven: rat tunnels
Tomb Keks: sand tracks
Lizardmen: jungle passage
High Elves: sky roads
Dark Elves: shadow streets
Daemons of Chaos: nurgle shortcut

As long as no one gets the fucking horrendous Channeling stance they threw on the Empire. They really should have made that Imperial Roadway, like they build a road with their superior industrial might to get through impassable terrain like Underway Passages or Worldroots. God dammit CA, I've never used Channeling once in my entire Warhammer career. Waste of my fucking time.

>>168221278
tbf, that's mostly because the magic gain is negligible and magic is shit right now.

>>168221676
honestly the magic pool thing is just completely fucking irrelevant

once you find out you keep getting more as the battle goes on you realize that shit doesn't matter in the least

>>168221676
Most of the time I just put all the magic reserve followers on my wizards and start at 20+ Winds of Magic.

It does actually. Since the more spells you cast, the slower it regenerates until it won't regenerate anymore.

But Anon, Tolkien's stuff is planet Earth. Just like the Howard's Hyborian Age.

is there a good vanilla+ mod for attila that makes battles a bit slower maybe makes the political side of the game a bit more interesting?

there's a slow motion button :^)

>>168210849
The Wastelands/Marienburg is supposed to the Netherlands. Their naming conventions also sound Dutch to the Empire's German.

Kislev is a mix of Tsarist Russia, and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.

And yeah, Albion is just pre-Roman Britain.

You've also got Khuresh, which is most likely the world's equivalent to Southeast Asia.

Mesopotamia is Chaos Dwarves.

Ogre Kingdoms and Kurgan share the Huns between the two of them. And Mongols are split between the Hobgoblins and Hung.

Border Princes are the Balkans. Tilea is Italy, and Estalia is Spain.

>>168224630

Dark Elves could get Lokhir Fellheart or Malus Darkblade as LLs.

Only in a really old draft of the verse. He retconned that shit pretty hard from what I remember.

It's generally a good idea to keep a fantasy universe somewhat relatable to the real world of the target audience (ie. europe inspired for a western audience). For an example of what happens when you make shit too weird and unrelatable, look up the Tékumel universe. It came out right around the time of LotR, had the same absurd amount of world building and is barely known by anyone.
