I know, but I still can't catch them. and then another stack runs past my stack and rains my shit and I have to run after that and then another runs past that and so on and so on and you can never truly stop them because you will rarely have two armies free to corner one of theirs.

find a hero that has the block army skill and then start either upgrading them to get the skill or use them to upgrade the skill. Using agents and ambushes is how you'll be able to catch enemy armies.

That begs the question: Formations are obviously a vital part of warfare, you can't exclude them unless it's a casualbait game like Warhams.

so i was looking at the prices for WH dlc on kinguin.com and it's about $70 added with the $12, that's around $82

is the free dlc on steam worth the $23 more id have to pay on steam?

also how would i use the DLC i buy on kinguin for the humblebundle Warhammer if they all say they're "Steam DLC keys"

>>168532521
Cossaks

>>168532625
HB gives you steam keys so you would use the key on steam.

If kinguin gives you steam keys, you would use the key on steam.

And since you're already getting it on Steam, you'll get the free dlc regardless. Since you're getting it on steam.

Yeah, for the Bretonnian super-faction. He'll be selectable under them in Skirmish.

I just recently got TW:W and come from a Paradox strategy background.

Can anyone explain to me how I should approach war? And how do the peace deals work? I've started as the Empire with Karl Franz and, after taking the Reikland, went to war with Marienburg(?) to the north-east. I took the main capital and now they want peace. If I peace out with them while I hold that city, will I gain control of it? Do I have to conquer the whole of the country to win the city?

I'll never get it. I buy DLC as an investment because for once in my life I feel it's almost worth it. Race packs are a bit pricey, but even then, it feed back into getting us more FLC and more fleshed out sequels.

This is painful.

>>168535759
I dislike my games being diced up into 10 installments of $7.99 on top of a $40 price for the base game

The quality of the content is irrelevant; the practice is terrible.

>>168535423
As a former warhammer fantasy player I have to say that this is literally nothing to me. Sega's jewing is nothing compared to GW's so i've become numb to this and to me this is pretty reasonable.

Consider that GW will sell you the book to play the army. Not even the models or the rule book. just the army supplement for almost $50

>>168536087
play multiplay custom map battles. they're fun even if you lose. Son't worry about loading times. Just as long as your game runs well in battle that's all that matters.

>>168536060

but on 4chan they should be tech savvy enough to pirate it (the DLC) instead

It seems to be reasonable for many hundreds of thousands of people.

If you value 17.50 more than you value the content offered, don't buy it. Easy as that.

>>168536947
I'm sure it has nothing to do with you having fun painting them, even with paint bought anywhere you like

So I played Attila for the first time after only playing Warhammer and fuck me, Warhammer not having any settlement maps is the dumbest thing ever.

Defending a settlement in Attila is actually like you're defending something - there are choke points, towers, all that good shit that you build in your towns.

It's fucking stupid that they got rid of all that in Warhammer so that building walls round a settlement is completely mandatory.

Will modders being able to add maps to campaigns fix this now?

>>168536914
Probably should start with dwarfs since they ez mode

>>168537539
If they didnt want to sell you overpriced paint, they would have more expensive painted versions too.

>>168537438
I value the entirety of the DLC content offered at $15-$25
not one scrap of it; with the total of all scraps equalling $60 and much of it looking more like cut content then content added later
For a digital copy of this game I would pay $30 for the base game and $15-$25 for DLC at sales
For a physical copy I would pay $50 for the base game and $30-$40 for DLC regardless of sales

That's not how the market works. It doesn't matter if people are retards, their intelligence doesn't make the impact of their purchasing decisions any less important in determining the price of a good.

Who's the strongest LL? Grimgor? Franz? Archaon?

>>168538340

Never implied it's black and white, you're just as greedy as them. Even more if we consider that you're actually trying to stand on some moral high ground when you're just a sad individual that can't even manage to be coherent and not use content he doesn't want to buy, whatever the reason for not buying it is. At least they admit they do it for profit.

Selling stuff isn't exploitation. A price that you think is too high is not automatically unreasonable. And of course the guys you steal from "deserve it" in your eyes. I can only be glad our society is still so healthy that it allows people with this mindset to carry on living.

>>168539798
Speaking of Bretonnia, do you think CA will ever give is the other sub-factions of each race?

if I'm just as greedy as a multi-national corporation hell bent on squeezing every last penny out of its loyal consumers as an individual with no economic weight apart from my wallet as a consumer then I'm honestly not even bothered; I'm proud. It's an honest to god achievement to reach that level of greed as an individual, most people have to take courses and have 30 year long careers to reach these lofty heights.

But if you're absolutely sure about heaping these accolades upon me thank you anon; your insight into this has given me a new low of moral fibre I never thought I'd achieve. I can now say I have eclipsed Hitler, Stalin and Mao Zhedong in my greed, a lifelong goal of mine.

Imagine being Isabella Von Carstein in Sylvania and having to be all like "damn, Vlad Von Carstein, you fuckin' fine, all sexy with your undead body and horrific rotten monster face. I would totally have sex with you, both my living version and the real undead me." when all she really wants to do is suck another 16 year old's blood in her dressing room. Like seriously imagine having to be Isabella and not only sit in that throne while Vlad von carstein flaunts his disgusting body in front of you, the favorable lighting barely concealing his necrosis and leathery skin, and just sit there, war after war, hour after hour, while he perfected that necromancy. Not only having to tolerate his monstrous fucking visage but his haughty attitude as everyone on Sylvania tells him he's STILL GOT IT and DAMN, VLAD VON CARSTEIN LOOKS LIKE THAT?? because they're not the ones who have to sit there and watch his ghoulish fucking zombie face contort into types of grimaces you didn't even know existed before that day. You've been fucking nothing but a healthy diet of WISSENLAND STUDS and PRINCES and later alleged 'disappeared' virgins for your ENTIRE LIFE coming straight out of the boonies in Sylvania. You've never even seen anything this fucking disgusting before, and now you swear you can taste the necrosis that's breaking out on his dimpled stomach as he sucks it in to writhe it suggestively at you, smugly assured that you are enjoying the opportunity to get married to sit there and revel in his "statuesque (for that is what he calls himself)" beauty, the beauty he worked so hard for with vampirism in the previous eras. And then the count of Sylvania,Otto calls for another proposal, and you know you could kill every single person in this room before the sylvanian security could put you down, but you sit there and endure, because you're fucking Isabella Von Carstein. You're not going to lose your future political career over this. Just bear it. Hide your face and bear it.

Well, why not? They've got two in Sylvania and two in Athel Loren. Bretonnia is a lot bigger than either and it's a long country so you can have Couronne/Bretonnia in the far north near the Orcs and Marienburg and Norscan raiders, Bordeleaux in the middle next to Mousillon and Carcasonne in the far south near Khazrak and the Wood Elves.

Kraka Drak would be great to play as vanilla dorfs, even more so if they used the Kraka Drak mod. But pretty much all subfactions are just going to be vanilla lords since the actual warhammer setting focused on a limited number of lords in a limited number of areas and TWW was designed around those lords.

The problem with the mod is that you can only do individual unit formations, instead of multiple unit formations. I want one big pike square, not 4 tiny ones. You basically have to overlap them to get a desired, in depth pike wall that's actually resistant to cavalry charges.

Kill yourselves.
$20 race packs are inexcusable, and cut content is inexcusable as well. TWH has both.

If they were fairly priced I'd pick them up in a heart beat but modders do the same stuff for free, faster, or at least they would if Denuvo didn't have this game so locked down.

I'm not paying $8 to play as Chaos, especially when the campaign itself is so poorly implemented. They literally just cut out being able to play them then resold it as "extra content" because they only intended for Chaos to be the BBEG doomstacks to make you fight them late game, and put no time or effort into making their campaign fun to actually play.

Beastmen is even worse. $20 for a similarly non fleshed out campaign. It's bullshit. This shlop is in the $5 dollar range of content. They're charging expansion pack prices for factions.

I remember when Total War games got great expansions that were fairly priced. Now they're just making bank off of idiots like you.

>only then because i dislike their colors.
Fuck me, Wolves are my favorite founding chapter, but I HATE their color scheme. I also really hate that they don't have successors canonically so I can't make wolves with a good color scheme.

Salamanders are kind of the same deal, but I think their colors are okay.

>>168545428

>>168545994
I had shit tons of bad run in with their players, not just in table top but in other games like Space Marine.

I used to love the shit out of them too, but long story short they're a bunch of cunts with holier than thou attitudes.

>>168545617

>>168539687
Yes, you are silly and kind of slow. Maybe spend 2 seconds thinking about it before building those false expectations.

Isabella, a single Legendary Lord, is the grand prize for winning best of the 4 events. Yet you expected Warhammer's dlc packs with far, far more content in them to be one of the minor prizes for wining a single day. And now you're getting uppity because the thing you got for free with no effort involved didn't meet your pie in the sky expectations.

Black Templars are probably the bombenest chapter around. Most swag, coolest tactics, glory out the ass, could probably roflstomp any other faction if all their crusades got together except GW retconned their numbers down to around a little above 1000 wtf man and we dont even have a codex either fuck

But the Ultra hate is ridiculous. They're aesthetic as fuck and have cool tactics. Ultra Gladius is the bane of my local store though.

>>168546414
Obviously, it's just that Ultramarines are inflated in value and deflated in interesting stuff.

>>168546460
Yeah I don't like the fists scheme either, but I like their fluff the most.

>>168546159
Honestly the only ones I found that aren't cuntish are the Space Wolves players.

It's just the nature of Tzeentch. Of course he would betray the everchosen of the Gods and try to fuck up the great plan to destroy the world. The great deceiver is just a force of nature in that sense.

I guess you will have to bait them into favourable battles with your stack spam. Ambush stance might be helpful(to get the enemy armies to move around)

Also you could try and go against the Empire straight away.

I've found Dwarves rout pretty fast if you surround them, which is easy to do with goblin hordes. They'll fight for a bit, but if you can surround them and kill their Lord then they run just like anyone else.
It's easier to assassinate a Lord with an agent then start a battle than it is to actually kill the lord in combat though.


>>168547952
That just makes it worse, honestly. Especially since it still hasn't been fixed yet while they pump out more Vampire content.

>>168548014
That's a fucking cop out and no other game on the planet does that. Blood DLC is unmitigated cancer and has no right to exist. It cannot be defended, there's nothing to defend here.

I think it's ok to cut out a small part of your game and make it pre-order bonus DLC, because preorder sales are extremely important for the health of any development team. SEGA gets some money up front and can reinvest it and therefor is more likely to think of CA as a sound, safe and stable investment in the future. If you have to wait until release, you might lack some liquid assets in the meantime or things could go wrong with the release and even if you patch any issue that might come up, you'll lose a lot of money.

WoC was too large a part though. Fuck you SEGA.

>>168548223
Well originally i think it was 1or 2 bux for Shogun 2?
Might be a cop out but ive seen worse.

>>168548240

I think the people complaining about cut content is legit but anyone complaining about the blood dlc needs slapped, they sell it so they can actually put the damn game into certain countrys with rules against blood. Such as germany. The reason it's not free dlc is because then any asshole could download it including children who are much less likely to have a fucking credit card or access to steam currency.

2bh they'll probably wait until the 3rd game to fully fix chaos warriors once the chaos wastes are more than just empty hellscape

The best they've done so far is add a few units and change WoC horde mechanics to be in line with the less-tedious Beastmen horde mechanics but otherwise "Awaken tribe" is still retarded and broken

They EASILY could have created a separate version to be sold to people in countries with laws against this. Instead, they just found a way to make money and hide behind backwards ass laws to do so.

You know what else they could have done? Reduced the price of the base game by the price of the DLC, that way the consumer doesn't have to pay more for the full game.

Fuckyoufuckyoufuckyoufuckyoufuckyou

People like you are the reason EA is one of the most profitable companies on the planet and video games keep being dumbed down with less content and mechanics on 20 times the budget.

and yet he's right, not one of you have posted a reason why it's flawed. Would you, as a designer deny yourselves profit from an entire country just to ship it with blood? Something that isn't even required?

>>168548839

It's one dude you retard, learning comprehension much?

>>168548530

That just makes them less noble. Cutting content so they can make more money by selling it in communist shitholes like Sweden with censorship laws while also charging for the cut content for maximum profit. That's not noble at all, that's exploiting the situation to the max.

remember the review bombing of Attila? Now TWW too
I mean the DLC is very jewish, but jesus

Which game has the BEST warfare gameplay out of them all, vanilla/modded doesn't matter?

The sale is on, and I'm willing to pick whatever. I have Attila and Warhammer, but find the latter lacking and Attila units are really bland.

>>168548627
>Victoria 3

It's been 7 years since V2 came out and 4 since the last DLC was released. It's not happening Jim, V2 was just too complex for the average retard.

>>168549274
I'd settle for Victoria: Total War.

>>168548759
Fun early game, but it's obviously disgustingly incomplete.

>>168548747
Their DLC policy is pretty mixed. You can pick and choose which additional content you want. The problem is that their vanilla releases are fucking garbage so certain DLCs are mandatory. EU3 was shit until the expansions came out, CK2 was decent but you basically need Legacy of Rome and a couple others, Vic2 was literally fucking barely playable until A House Divided, EU4 only got better than EU3 when Art of War came out, Stellaris is a fucking ridiculous incomplete meme and we don't even need to fucking talk about HOYFOUR.

>>168548965
Do you honestly think that if a country bans your game for the blood and gore, that you can get away with reintroducing blood and gore as a DLC and they'll be fine with it?

Do you honestly think that even if they tried to make their game more family friendly to be released and then add blood and gore as optional content, that they could not release it for free in countries that don't censor their games?

Do you honestly think that Germany still censors blood and gore in its games? Fallout 4 came in uncut, and that game's gore gets fucking brutal with the bloody mess perk, all previous 3D Fallouts were censored and they changed their censorship policy.

This argument is garbage and the fact that I have to list out all of these obvious fucking arguments as to why it is garbage makes me think that you're either shilling, the dude who originally posted that mental diarrhea or actually unironically a clinical idiot.

>>168549289
I can read perfectly fine, you're ignoring my argument entirely, just saying it's shit, while accusing others of not having an arugment.

How about you actually argue instead of just insulting me, fuckboy.
I'm insulting you, because you're being a tremendous faggot, but I'm also giving facts and arguements while you just keep saying "no u" and resorting to fallacies.

You're a coward.

>>168549206
Napoleon has a lot of positioning.


Rome 1 for an old 3d total war game that isn't so unwieldy when it comes to battles.

>>168549420

I have no need to argue with you shitlord, you threw the insults first I merely responded, I made my point, if you disagree then there's fuck all I can do and I refuse to be drawn into a pissing contest with some faggot who probably knows I'm right and is just mad at the god damn principle.

If you think its streamlined and simplified imagen what if SEGA was EA for example

>>168549206
Napoleon probably comes the closest to how battles in the era were conducted.

Get FotE and Europe Perdita mods for Attila and reconsider your opinion.

You're a fucking tumblr fag, this explains so much.

>haha I'm right and you're wrong, that's why I don't have any arguments or explanations for why they cut content and resold it instead of just creating a non blood version for countries that ban blood like every dev for the past 30 years did

How do you lie to yourself so hard?

Should I get Attila? I've had and played every TW game aside from Attila and Rome, and it's 75% off now, but will I get as annoyed about cut content as I have been with Warhammer? Don't want to buy the DLC's

>>168548747
Paradox have cancer fanbase that defend their company to death unlike tw fanbase

>>168549589
Napoleon, and play one of the historical battles in NTW3 mod. It's the closest you'll get to actually commanding troops in Napoleonic warfare. Even better than the Scourge series.

>>168549652
Attila is the best game in the series in my opinion.

>>168549695
This, that mod is fantastic. LME is also a great option but its kind of a pain to download to get.

Enjoy being a passive aggressive little bitch, I'm not sorry I hurt your feelings, I hope you don't come back.

Thinking about earning some good goy points and buying the Empire/VC DLC. My only question is, are the Arch Lector and the Ghoul King any good?

>>168549801
You realise that you can just ignore people right?

I mean this is 4chan. Nobody can truly call you out for being a pussy for backing out because everyone is anonymous.

>>168549891
Time ran out.

shattering enemy morale with an inferior force as vampire counts is great

there is no way I would win in an even fight half the time but forcing a rout makes it work

also fuck flagellants

>>168549652
Go for it m8. Buy the sands dlc if you manage to get a lot of hours into the game.


I recommend checking the workshop for some small mods that fixes AI starving to death and so on(you want to have a interesting late game after all)


>>168549891
Time ran out while their hellcannons were waiting outside. They army got fucked so I won that battle really.

>>168550078
>also fuck flagellants

just shoot the- Oh wait youre VC

crypt ghouls meme on fagellants and slayers

>>168549972
I wish the time mechanic was better fleshed out.
I always just turn it off because it's stupid, but there should be some way to penalize attackers for dragging out a fight indefinitely. Maybe morale damage after a long enough period of time has passed? It wouldn't cause units to break entirely, but just reduce their max morale or something?

>Arch Lector

Arch Lector is weaker in melee than the general of the empire, but he can get some really nice buffs for himself and the army. He has some permanent buffs for flagellants too.

Ghoul King can raise some special dead and is good in melee.

I'm not a nostalgiafag, but I still think Rome 1 has the best feeling battles. I do really enjoy the newer titles, though.

>>168547136
Blood DLC is always a thing because they want a T-rating for the base game.

Sega literally wouldn't let them add Chaos as the endgame without them making it a pre-order / DLC thing. It can't be cut content in this context if it never existed to begin with.

And if you're boycotting all DLC because you missed the Chaos DLC, that's retarded because it's literally the most half-assed thing in the game and you're not really missing much by not having it.

>>168549332
Empire already exists

That is what TWV would be, except it would have Africa and South Asia as the main theatres.

Conquest of the American West and Civil War would be separate minicampaigns you'd have to pay for as well as either a Heavenly Kingdom minicampaign or a Boxer Rebellion minicampaign. Maybe a Russo-Japanese war minicampaign too.

Australia, the Boers wars, the War of the Triple alliance, anything to do with Canada, the Mexican-American war and other interesting events of the 19th century would be ignored.

Why were you in a coma? Or do you mean you were drunk for four days and don't remember anything? Because I would remember some stuff.

The strategy map is a macguffin for tactical battles. Total War is not a strategy game, it's a tactical battle simulator. Use it as a vehicle to get you into battles and have fun there.

>>168550631
>it's not cut content because SEGA told them they couldn't add it unless they made it to be sold separately or used as a pre order bonus

I don't understand what kind of logic you have to use to get to such a retarded ass statement.

neither of those units have much armor, allowing the crypt ghouls to do well in melee when you factor in the poison damage. The slowing from the poison is also good for trapping enemy slayers into melee in mp so they cant get at your cav/monsters

>>168550631
>are you really boycotting a bad practice on principle? Wow, that's retarded

And he said he doesn't want the other DLC because it's overpriced, even. Did you just not read his original comment?

>>168550781
>Total War is not a strategy game, it's a tactical battle simulator
I wish CA would realise this and explore more in that direction. It sucks that no matter what your favourite battle in history is, it is probably impossible to recreate in any total war game because of how shallow the tactical aspects are.

>>168550230
yeah I know; but crypt ghouls are less than ideal for most other fights due to the whole "poor against armour" thing

Whole century off, not to mention all the military, industrial, and political changes involved that make the Victorian era significantly different.

Halberdiers are secretly amazing, who knew? They're definitely a permanent fixture in all my future Empire campaigns.

I got the base game of Warhammer for $12 and not buying DLC because fuck that. Which is the best faction for demolishing online? From what I read it's Derfs. How do I cheese with them?
