I guess you could just confederate with the new faction to get all the LLs. Also a walled city might be more of a attractive starting position

with Deamons of chaos DLC factions probably

>>168412690

Shit lore, nothing special aside from his items. Basically just a wizard with the lore of metal.

>>168412758

Jesus christ that's so fucking gay

>>168412690

Casts from the worst lore of Magic in the game by a wide margin.

Is just as shit in combat as Kemmler, with the possible exception being able to beat out footslogging lords by cycle charging on his pegasus.

>>168412806
>>168412789
what is wrong with Metal? legitimate question, I'm new

solid damage, good buffs/debuffs, armywide armor piercing... what's not to like?

also, his voice acting is cool

I'd love Gotrek to be a dwarven lord/hero w/e, but he'd probably be too OP.

I haven't played for a few months. Have they made it so when you confederate with a faction with a LL you can rechoose his level up skills?
I hate getting Grimgor from the ai and having him invested in fucking campaign stuff

They're not gonna make us pay for this Isabella shit, right?

>>168412932
nah, he should be a special event when playing Skaven.

>>168412923
The buffs are decent, but not the damage spells(unless you use mods, then searing doom is really useful).

>>168412923

>solid damage

No, it's really not

Leaving aside the fact that damage spells underperform as a rule, Gelt's damage spells are still particularly pathetic.

>good buffs/debuffs

The minus armor buff is single target and not nearly effective enough, Transmutation of Lead is genuinely a good spell and the only thing the lore is good for

>armywide armor piercing

It only increases the army piercing damage of the army by a percentage, meaning that most units will get 0-2 extra AP damage

fuck yeah medieval 1

>>168413161
>It only increases the army piercing damage of the army by a percentage, meaning that most units will get 0-2 extra AP damage
not him but I had no idea of this. Holy shit that's patethic

>>168413161
b-but... I'm running a campaign as Gelt... oh well. I guess I should feel good kicking ass as underdog.

>>168413347
>>168413161
Lore of metal should have a zone spell that lower armors slighly and cause damages equal to the units armor.

>>168413253
??

>>168413426
Gelt has amazing campaign and quest buffs. I think having him in a province with some other things mena you can recruit level 13 Wizards

>>168413554
But he's my highest-level combat lord! I can't just park him in a province.

Also, the whole point of picking him was to have a wizard lord and not having to waste money and army slot for a hero wizard until it's late in the game. Oh well.

>>168413554
> I think having him in a province with some other things mena you can recruit level 13 Wizards

Yeah that one is pretty good.

>>168413426

Gelts campaign is still a lot of fun desu, he was my first campaign and I had a blast.

His quest battles are great and he has a lot of them and his voice acting is based as hell.

You don't NEED to have the best of the best guy leading your stuff, he's perfectly capable of carrying you to a win.

Hol up. There seems to be a LOT of disrespect for Mannfred Von Carstein in this thread. I'd just like to take a moment to remind you that Mannfred is the best Legendary Lord in the game, by far. Mannfred:

>is the best caster, with access to two of the best lores of magic
>is a top tier melee lord
>starts with great troops
>nearly unkillable in battle with massive regeneration and armor
>gets a flying zombie dragon (do you?)
>can snipe any other lord or hero with Spirit Leech spam
>is confirmed 6'2" height in the lore (not a manlet)
>has a lucious mane of hair when he wants to have one (bald is simply better aerodynamics for riding his personal flying mount)
>is also the best Von Carstein

Now, having said that... can we PLEASE show some respect to Mannfred?

>>168417582
Fear and terror don't work on vampire count units since they cause fear and terror themselves
However, effects that reduce leadership directly (like some spells, the gob-lobber and some abilities) do work

>literally acceptable load times on everything except TWH
Except XCOM 2, but that's because that game still has a memory leak. Loads fine for the first two hours, starts to slow after that.

I shouldn't need an SSD, devs should just stop being incompetent and go for functionality over bloating the shit out of the code.

>>168427024

Get a SSD and put your OS on it. The speed gains are insane, I mean, really insane.

>>168427530

Buy a SSD if you already aren't using one, I put Warhammer on mine and my load times went from a couple of minutes to just 10 seconds or so.

>>168427708
>>168427898
Can you do that? Just move an OS over? But I mean, my boot time is only 30 seconds at the most already.

Also what kinda SSD should I get? I'm not looking to spend more than $100 here, so a 250GB SSD would be fine. I'd take a smaller one too, I just want it to last and enough for one game and my OS would be cool. Most of the games I play have near instant load times.

>>168427684
>stop advancing technology because I don't want to buy anything

Not going to happen, just get a SSD or deal with the load times. Warhammer is pretty well optimized and runs better than Rome 2 in a lot of ways. It's a big game, it needs a modern machine to shine.

So now that Vlad is finally a faction leader and Isabella is incoming, what are some other changes you'd like to see or things added, keeping in mind that bretonnia is the last BIG addon?

Personally I'd like

-Ungrim to start in Karak Kadrin and slayers to recieve a buff

-introduction of legendary heroes

-Kemmler starting near bretonnia with krell introduced

-at least one (but i would honestly like more than one) LL added for the Empire and Chaos

Anything else for this game? I dont want to get my hopes up because I doubt they will be adding a ton more stuff to 1 before the release of 2.

>>168427981
Get Samsung, they are built to last. 250gb is fine, that is what I have. It holds my OS and all the games I'm playing at the moment. Everything else goes on my HDD.

I'd do a fresh OS install in the new SSD, personally.

>>168427747
Well it is my first go at this game mate.

>>168427981
You can clone your drive if you don't feel like reinstalling everything, but a fresh install is always better.
100 dollars is probably what you'll spend just about, 250gb. Or go with 120gb if you're confident you can fit the OS and all of your daily use things onto it.

>>168427981

The Samsung SSD I bought had a program along with it that allowed you to transfer either the OS or the contents of a HDD to it. That's kind of messy though. My recommendation is that you install a OS on the SSD, then go into BIOS and make your SSD the starting drive. There are plenty of good guides that show you how.

I personally use a Samsung 840 EVO, which has a 250Gb storage. It's very cost-effective.

>>168428231
Morghur to be his own faction in Grand Campaigns.

>>168427981
>>168428385
>>168428532
>>168428568

Also, don't defrag a SSD.

>>168428167
I never said to stop advancing tech you retarded monkey, I said developers shouldn't have memory leaks in 20 fucking 17 and there's no reason a game with less variety than Rome 2 should load slower. It does seem to run better, but the load times are very bad for some reason I cannot determine.

>>168428385
>>168428532
>>168428568
Eh fresh install? I'm using a cracked version of Win 8.1. I'd need to recrack it and spend an entire day updating.

I don't have a problem with load times on my OS. Just TWH. Probably just say fuck it to the OS and just use it for games.

It's not the install times that would bother me, it's the updates. My pirated version is from when 8.1 launched, so that's a whole two years of updates to get it up to speed again.

I'm glad that you can wreck Mannfred at not only Vlad now, but also Isabella. I like that its Isabella and the girls and a Monster Mash. I like How it promotes using two separate smaller stacks in the early campaign as opposed to just one big one.

And even though its just one province different, It'll be a significant change to the opening moves and the direction of growth.

They are closer to Altdorf, and more sheltered from dwarfs for one.

>>168426550
You'll get better.

Opening turns are critical in any total war game, and typically you want to be agressive as possible with your early army. fighting the battles.

Typically in my first turn as empire I go straight for the secessionist. use up all movement going at them and then recruiting when i stop moving.

The fights with low number equal engagements are not only great learning tools to figure out how to fight battles better, since it improves your micro, but when you win against those enemies with few losses you can quickly overwhelm the successionist before they get too powerful.

Be agressive

WARHAMMER
LORD
DUEL
ANIMATIONS
WHEN

With Isabella and Vlad having their own starting point now, the hopes are high that we will get elector counts such as Boris Todbringer, Marius Leitdorf or Valmir von Raukov at new Empire LL.

How do I create vc battle markers on purpose?

I try making 2-3 zombie stacks and go fight, on battle map i feed as many as possible before winning, get like 2,5k dead with 80unit sizes, but the count doesn't go up and I get no new units

Should I just use autoresolve?

Do sieges not count?

What do?

>>168434864

Because I'm a lazy shitter and we all know it. It does look like a very nice overhaul though. Even though I don't hate Radious as much as everyone else, the dude's mods suffer from a lot of bloat. Steel Faith looks very solid, I may check it out later. A lot of the changes sound very nice. Shame there aren't many new units, but I can probably deal with it.

>>168435109

Boris seems very likely to get his own faction, considering you can play as Middenland in custom battles and it got some units removed from the roster that need to be filled up.

>>168435091
When there's nothing more important to animate, ie never

>>168435283
The biggest problem with the mod is how incompatible it is, but it can still handle some mods that don't directly change units, like the improved unit spacing mod. You can actually add new units and factions into the mod as long as they don't overwrite existing files, but they won't be balanced for the mod itself.

Thanks, i've been trying to find what works best. I've been watching my replays a lot to see how best to show them off and I'm at a point where I'm trying to find my style of video before I really get down to work on scripting and what not.

I have a video uploading that actually has a few cuts and I'm working on the voice work. That's kind of the point of making this.


I'm also wondering what sort of videos people are interested
So far I've done
2v2 random multiplayer battle
1v1 random mlutiplayer quick battle (being uploaded)
I also have a video that examines a custom map
And I also have a 2v2 battle on that custom map

All of varying quality as I try to keep improving. But just trying to see what works, how to cut. if I should focus on cinematic views or battle reports. Whether I want a lot of cuts or just a straight replay. And how long it takes to process cut make and upload the video.

So thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it. Fundamentally I just want to share some cool replays and hopefully find a few people to play custom multiplayer maps with.
