Hispania is probably the worst for public order at the start seemingly, since a lot of their provinces have shitty developement for the WRE. I highly suggest demolishing even buildings great for the economy (the -10 public order for 1250 gold ones) etc to quickly get a hold of public order. Demolish the 750 gold places that cost public order and replace them with the less gold but +3 public order regular forums etc. Upgrading settlements, building baths etc.

WRE was much harder before the corruption changes. The start remains the same difficulty, but you more quickly stabilize because you can make more money early on.

>>170508559
Himyar start position is great, I currently own 3 provinces making 10k+ a turn, and that is after the massive spike in corruption that I've experienced from capturing Sassanid territory. Jewish religion buildings also give a large bonus to research, so I was able to research the later economic techs at a much faster rate than usual. Early game when my relationship w/ the Sassanids and their satraps was better I was making over 10k a turn in trade thanks to the gems and spices in palestine/aethiopia

Git gud.
I managed to hold everything on VH as the WRE. Didn't lose a single province. I gave you all the entry level tactics, you shouldn't have lost it this early. Mid-level tactics involve settling barbarian hordes that are favorable to you to raise a provinces developement and to keep them occupied, setting up defensive strong points, and ridding yourself of the german, celt, and nodick problem.

what are the chances that one of the campaign objective of the high elves is remaking their old world empire ?

Yea, when I discovered the WRE initially they were still the strongest faction, and had barely lost any territory - presumably because they were lead by Stilicho and had defensive traits. Even now the WRE is still number 2 (behind me). The ERE however did a whole lot worse, as I stole most of their african/levant holdings by creating rebellions, and then the Sassanids facerolled them, taking all of their anatolian provinces. Now they are limited to the islands of crete, rhodes, and cyprus

Nah, rangers aren't as good as quarellers, but they are cheaper and sneakier.

Bretonnia taking Marienburg early on really changes everything. I don't want to bully them just yet because they are a good trade partner and neighbour.

After I got rid of Khazrak I randomly decided to take over Bastonne and then beat up the Red Duke for something to do, and while I wait for ANYONE to confederate with me because like a dummy I made deals with all of my neighbours.

I don't know whether I should purge those traitorous Ziflin or Norn Dwarves and Skarsnik, take over Parravon or Artois, or go on a random crusade into Border Prince land or to Hochland.

Chaos Campaign would be better if defeating big bird reduced your upkeep through a "Everchosen" campaign buff once you've proven you're the Everchosen. That way you could found several more hordes and really feel like the Doomtide.

Actually now that I think of it the Chaos campaign should give you like +200 favor for every city you personally raze. Since it's the favor of the gods they should love you the more you ruin things.

I'm giving my greatest general one last victory
71 years old he's not got much life left

Thought I would give you guys a brief rundown

can someone break down the difficulty levels of combat and campaign

so far as i know, hard+ the game basically cheats for AI campaign and gives AI +25% income and +x happiness

in battles though, does the AI use better tactics than normal? or is it just getting the stat boosts?

on very hard dwarf warriors get handled by orc boyz and longbeards hardly hold their ground, losing some of the time

>>170517741

Stat boosts.

Play on very hard with battle difficulty on normal.

The only way your getting faster load times is with an SSD.

what should Empire do with infantry in higher-level armies? making new army after my old main force was almost wiped out, and after grabbing a bunch of artillery and demis I'm at loss

so far it is:

Teh Emprah
1 Bright Wizzard
2 units of Handgunners
2 units of Greatsword
3 units of Halbergryphs
1 unit of Lancegryphs
2 Mortars
1 Fireworks
1 Valley Gun
1 Steam Tonk
1 unit of Grenade Outriders
1 unit of Pistoliers

I guess I need some infantry... are halberders worth taking at these power levels? or I should grab more greatswords? demis have good staying power as it is, but that's misusing them

>Empire allied with Dorfs (coop)
>Archaon's doomstacks make way south
>Empire and Dorfs assemble their best armies to make a stand

>>170519783
Greatsword/Halberds
Crossbowmen/Gunners
Steamtanks (2-3)
Luminark (1)
Wizard of choice
Franz on deathclaw

Never personally saw any use in cavalry for empire since it's infantry and artillery are good enough on their own.
Franz is just too good at destroying everything and luminark will delete heroes and powerful single units from a map away before they can destroy your frontline.

why is there no artwork of cute chibi rule 63 Belegar blushing and saying "N-no stabby please" to silhouette of Skarskin?

>>170520529
Halberds are great pretty much through out the whole game. They're cheap, you get them early, and they cost a pittance to maintain.

They bridge the mid to late game very well since they have great defensive stats and they have armor piercing + anti large-- the two things that chaos is full of.

>>170520775
shouldn't it be the other way around with Skarsnik saying "N-no hammering please"?

>>170520851
could be, but a cute 63 version of a dwarf is more... demeaning. can't demean a goblin anyway. also Skarsnik would be more recognizable as a silhouette. and "Stabby" is a better word.

>France.
Gallic Wars Lost. In a war whose ending foreshadows the next 2000 years of French history, France is conquered by of all things, an Italian.

Hundred Years War Mostly lost, saved at last by a female schizophrenic who inadvertently creates The First Rule of French Warfare - France's armies are victorious only when not led by a Frenchmen.

Italian Wars Lost. France becomes the first and only country ever to lose two wars when fighting Italians.

Wars of Religion France goes 0-5-4 against the Huguenots.

Thirty Years' War France is technically not a participant, but manages to get invaded anyway. Claims a tie on the basis that eventually the other participants started ignoring her.

War of Devolution Tied; Frenchmen take to wearing red flowerpots as chapeaux.

The Dutch War Tied.

War of the Augsburg LeagueKing William's WarFrench and Indian War Lost, but claimed as a tie. Deluded Frogophiles the world over label the period as the height of French Military Power.

War of the Spanish Succession Lost. The War also gave the French their first taste of a Marlborough, which they have loved ever since.

American Revolution In a move that will become quite familiar to future Americans, France claims a win even though the English colonists saw far more action. This is later known as de Gaulle Syndrome, and leads to the Second Rule of French Warfare France only wins when America does most of the fighting.

French Revolution Won, primarily due to the fact that the opponent was also French.

The Napoleonic Wars Lost. Temporary victories (remember the First Rule!) due to leadership of a Corsican, who ended up being no match for a British footwear designer.

The Franco-Prussian War Lost. Germany first plays the role of drunk Frat boy to France's ugly girl home alone on a Saturday night.

>MEN, BRING OUR PEOPLE HONOUR, GLORY AND MOST OF ALL...

>>170522251
WWI: Tied and on the way to losing, France is saved by the United States. Thousands of French women find out what it's like not only to sleep with a winner, but one who doesn't call her "Fraulein." Sadly, widespread use of condoms by American forces forestalls any improvement in the French bloodline.

WWII: Lost. Conquered French liberated by the United States and Britain just as they finish learning the Horst Wessel Song.

War in Indochina: Lost. French forces plead sickness, take to bed with Dien Bien Flu.

Algerian Rebellion: Lost. Loss marks the first defeat of a Western army by a Non-Turkic Muslim force since the Crusades, and produces the First Rule of Muslim Warfare -"We can always beat the French." This rule is identical to the First Rules of the Italians, Russians, Germans, English, Dutch, Spanish, Vietnamese, and Eskimos.

War on Terrorism: France, keeping in mind its recent history, surrenders to Germans and Muslims just to be safe.

Holy shit you weren't lying about Wood Elves being a meme. The moment I invaded Bretonnia as chaos they allied with me and helped me genocide the m'ladies.

Also after that I had to cross the whole map and go to Kislev to destroy the last Empire fortress, not paying attention I accepted to ally with Beastmen against the Tree Hitler.
Holy shit Durthu got out from his forest with a full stack and started chasing my second army around the map, he even outsmarted me and murdered the poor Suneater.

Speaking of, why isn't the Green Knight a spell? LL could cast it in battle on the same existing cap a different he tears onto the field in a blaze of chivalrous fire.

>Be honest, how often do you even use agents to assassinate or wound the enemies?

Depends on the faction, but usually never. The most I ever did was as the vamps because they were already out there spreading corruption so I thought why not.

>Also how often do you use autoresolve compared to manual fights?

Too often. I try to avoid it, but too often, especially early game, the AI just doesn't present interesting armies to fight. Gaming siege towers gets old fast as well.

>>170525992
I prefer to fight most battle, aside from really skewed ones (10+ unit armies have no time for small rebel shits) or really unfair ones, where auto-resolve is only way to win (looking at you, 19 chariots or 19 warhounds)

>>170525992
I only resolve the mop-up battles and trivial rebel stacks, not worth going into those with my shit loading times. Other than that i do manual.

An average army with some artillery can take 2 stacks easily.

lad I fucked them up at the same time when I didn't even have to, mannlet kept sending his stacks into my land without any right to military access so I destroyed them all and dragged him from the top power ranking while I simultaneously sodomized vladdy
vamps are easy, and it removes the scheming cunts from being able to attack in the flank while deal with chaos

tell me about vortices
I can't control them, right?
how do they move then? randomly? toward nearest enemy? away from the caster?

Autoresolve all of the trivial fights, manually fight everything else.

This whole game is beautiful (except the shitty fucking generic grassland maps that are still a tradition since RTW)

I actually have to stop playing in many battles and hover around the map appreciating the details for a while before getting to play the battles (I used to be a mapmaker in a game called American conquest and it's sequels and mods, so I relate a bit to the levels of work) really the games I really love are the ones that make me stop every once in a while to appreciate the work

>>170527775
Me too, but it can be a bit annoying to look at the wonderful background and wonder why that isn't the map itself. I know it's to keep something resembling balance, but would have been nice to have a few maps where the fancy bits are within the boundaries.

Total War: Biological Warfare

On the southern front, the 68 year old Shahanshah refuses to die, and breaks our client kingdom treaty by marching on our legion with 3 armies. Joining him in the revolt are Arran and some bumfuck Roman who took an arab kingdom, neither of which are a threat to us.

He conveniently chose the turn that all his mesopotamian cities and all his armies within striking distance lost their diseases, while my legion remains plagued and weakened. We're in full retreat for now, there are plenty of loyal kingdoms in the area and they will provide resupply once our disease runs its course. Before we were forced out of Ctesiphon we managed to recruit some of their best Savaran and an elephant division.

>>170527916
Why would he need to be unbreakable? he has the advantage! he can swing his hammer in any direction and hit an enemy.

Yeah, I wish those huge castles would be part of the battles, they are a really unique and pretty design, but I imagine implementing them would be quite difficult, I mean it's obvious a cannon shell in the middle would cause it to collapse.

I can't wait for the next Transylvania setting video-game, I hope Castlevania comes back to life. It's been a while. Almost 20 years since first title

>>170528006
On the northern front, Arbogast is ready to strike at the "barbarian emperor," a pretender holed up in the army base Durocortorum and the leader of a five nation barbarian NATO. His legion is composed of strong elite Romans equipped from the palatina barracks he controls, and barbarians he recruits from the hordes he gives succor to.

We can't attack his base because he is keeping it a diseased shithole, and sending plagued armies of barbarians to spread even more disease wherever they go. Every month barbarian warleaders arrive from Frankia, the lost Britain, and Scandinavia to pick up their diseases and spread filth throughout Gaul. If our expeditionary force picks up a disease, it will be weakened and unable to resupply. The barbarians will swarm in like sharks to the scent of blood, and so instead we're forced to wait them out.

I compromised and took over Hergig as a place to replenish and defend to the last.

Adherence to tradition is a big thing for dorfs. Also human cannons tend to misfire and explode a lot, which dorf quality weapons avoid.
