I can't pick just one but my top three are: classic pepperoni, meat lovers', and "Hawaiian" style (bacon, pork, pineapple w/ bbq sauce replacing red sauce). Best frozen brand is Screamin' Sicilian, best delivery are the local shops around here.Fuck off with the pineapple-on-pizza heresy meme pls.
>>180478796
Pepperoni, just like the Everqueen's nipples
I do love shooty armies. Should I be getting the WE DLC now that it is 33% off?
Which do I buy, beastmen or woodelves?
I'm not a good enough goy to buy both at the same time
>>180479361
Yes. They're more a movement faction than shooty (they don't have good armour and no artillery, so will have trouble in straight missile duels.)
>>180479123
press Kmy friend
>>180479420
Would you rather have a hoard or a settled faction?
>>180479420
Which one is more interesting to you?
Elves have the better mini campaign, imo.
>>180479664
History be Ballin!
Warhammer be Fallin!
>>180479671
>>180479689
I literally don't know.
I don't have chaos warriors, and I never really played hoard factions all that much in attila so that's a reason to try out beastmen, but then I also like the idea of a small "tall" empire like wood elves, and archer meming is always kind of fun.
But I've heard WE mechanics actually actually push you on offensive and spreading across the map... I wouldn't mind if it was just raiding and sacking but I don't know if I want to play another paint the map faction.
>>180479420
If you ever wanted to try a horde campaign you will need beastmen, cause chaos is dogshit.

This map is literally a crutch.
Name 1 (one) reason why Shogun 2 is not the best total war game.
Does anyone have any good medieval 2 mods?
>>180478943
as dacia you have great skirmishers which the AI doesn't run away from which allows you to btfo hors earchers if you use them right
>>180480345
unit variety
>>180480352
Yes,twcenter has some.
>>180480345
Gook history is boring and there is zero variety
Also it may just be me but something about Shogun 2 battles makes them look graphically worse than even Medieval 2 IMO. It might be the general style but it looks like dogshit when compared to Empire/Napoopan which came out before it.
>>180480328
A shame the AI is bugged and only attack the east gate meanwhile the rest stay in west side.
>>180480127
Wood Elves have the option to paint the map, but outside of Athel Loren, their cities are poorly garrisoned tier 1 outposts. You can use them to paint them map, if your autism demands it, or you can use them as a staging point to launch your raids.
which one should i buy in the steam sale?
shogun 2?
fots?
both?
i've heard that they're both good
y-yes master...
>>180480631
Fall of the Samurai is good if you liked the gunpowder based gameplay from Empire more than the traditional melee.
WE ARE THE GODS OF THE NEW WORLD ORDER
WE ARE THE SOLDIERS THE LEGION OF LIGHT
WE ARE THE CENTER THE DEPTH OF THE SUN
FIRE AND FLAME
WE ARE ONE
I just got the grim and gay dlc because i want me some knights of the blazing sun. How is Ghorst? Better or worse than Heinrich Himmler?
>>180480631
You could just download them for free from the usual places.
Don't support a company with DLC practices as bad as CA.
>>180480631
Well do you want melle units stabbing at each other or line infanty?
I'd start with normal Shogun 2 and see if you like thatAlso you don't get any achievements if you just got FotS
Don't buy Rise of the Samurai that's for sure
Reminder that Lustria is a multicultural paradise where all races live side by side in close proximity
Should I buy the campaign DLCs for attila?
>>180480897
No, pirate them.
>>180480760
>Better
he's better. 100% better
>>180480719
>>180480843
>Well do you want melle units stabbing at each other or line infanty?
i kinda liked empire. But i'm mostly just looking for another good total war, since I played rome and medieval 2 to death.
>>180480352
Europa Barbaorum 2, my friend :))
BotET is also good
>>180480897
Charlemagne - yes
Last Roman - only if you are a Byzaboo and playing as Belasarius excites you or you think horde Romans sound real novel
>>180480760
Kemmler is literally the worst lord in the game, of course Ghorst is better. Ghorst is on the decent end.
Can you just click travel button for the errantry wars like the quest battles or do I have to travel all the way down to Badlans for it?
>>180480631
Depends on what time period you want more. Just to let you know, they're both fast paced when it comes to the battles. The game is still gorgeous after six years.
>>180481048
Personally I liked Fall of the Samurai better, but it does have somewhat less content than in the base game obviously. Can't go wrong either way though desu as they're both pretty quality, though if you're a true patrician you'dget Attila, the best game in the series, instead
Ok so. As promised I will buy something for someone since it's a sale.
Who ever provides the thread with the best OC will get rewarded by an item of their choosing. This will not include any deluxe packages so don't get uppity with the request if you win. Leave your steam ID with the OC you provide since I won't be guessing who posted what.
I already gifted quite a few people that provided OC to the thread but were missing some DLC, if that's a guarantee. Give it your best and pick an item you want me to buy for you!
GO!
>>180480352
Stainless Steel
Broken Crescent
Third Age
So they sent a 7 stack of horse archers at my capital out of nowhere, 3 of them actually challenged me and got destroyed by my skirmishers, the rest just did this for 33 minutes
>>180480352
Medieval 2 has the best mods in the series silly
>>180480631
It's kind of weird, but I feel that shogun 2 is better, but fall of the samurai is more comfy and fun, because I'm a pleb.
Shogun 2 can actually be difficult both on the campaign map and certainly in battle, the enemy usually fields decent armies and battles are more often relatively even and require good tactics. Then, in all my time with fall of the samurai, the enemy always fielded just stacks of garbage levy units even in the late game, and the battles are often just sit there and watch the bullets fly. Boy is it fucking pretty though.
>>180481702
Imagine what could have been achieved if the base game wasn't so terrible
Are the Welfs glass cannon with out the cannon
>Warhammer Vermintide puts the DLC on sale for 15% off, Fatshark moves DLC off the store page and into the bundle page
>Total Warhammer puts DLC on for 33% off and also announces the sale
Come on now Fatshark.
That said, I'm probably going to pick up the Chaos Warriors DLC as that's the only Warhammer DLC left.
Also probably will pick up the remaining DLC for Shogun, Fall of the Samurai.
Is the DLC for Rome 2 worth the dosh?
>>180480760
Ghorst was a mistake. CA needed an antagonist for Volkmar for their first DLC and picked a literal nobody from a paragraph in the lore.
They got their shit together for Skarsnik and Belegar and haven't looked back since. Ghorst is a remnant of those early directional/thematic teething problems.
I hate germans so fucking much

I kind of like him, actually, especially him being an apprentice figure to Manfred. Still very odd having him be one of the picks when VC have so many damn good (relevant) options to choose from.

The big map and the TWW1 map are probably going to play differently so you may as well at least try the first game after the new race pack comes out.

My bet is 100% on Teclis unless they really push High Magic (They won't)
Warhammer asymmetrical balance pisses me off. As a player who has always played TW against the AI instead of mp I am just annoyed by the way it fights and acts. It's competent, but not in a strategic sense. In a botlike sense. Every fight against the AI is bound to become annoying for some reason. Maybe it is the effect of CA wanting to make it harder to hammer and anvil, but as it is now I literally never get to do that in Warhammer. Spells, monsters, etc... is a convoluted mess from which mostly the bot profits, but as a player I restrain myself normally. If I wanted to I could build my army with only griphon knights, giants, spider, etc and steamroll every fight and in some sense the game encourages you to do that so you can even have an ounce of fun, but then you have taken away the challenge for yourself and it feels hollow.
I wish the bot would play normal instead of like an asshat who will try to send half his battleline around yours or spam monsters to just run through your line into your skirmisher, because when both play like that it's just a korean clickfest without getting to watch any cinematic combat or charges. Just masses of units scattered all across the map. Game pisses me off.

Teclis has actually a better weapon than tyrion, but he'll probably have very low hp.
>>180481923
They've definitely got the cannon. Wild/hawk riders, deepwood scouts and waystalkers, wardancers with a melee boosting lord, forest dragons with a healer, all of these units bring the hurt.

Magic weapons in Total Warhams are dogshit anyway, the only good ones are the ones like Mannfreds sword that have abilities unrelated to how hard they hit stuff.

>>180485467

>>180484982
To elaborate on this for a second: There are units which hardcounter certain units so hard I'd never bother bringing them like artillery. Enemy has a flying monster sends it your artillery's way and bam, two of your units are now engaged in a pointless fight (including counter unit you send to protect the arty). Now it's 19vs18 for the bot and this is just one of many possible scenarios. Unicorn units prevent this. I can fill my whole army with unicorn units in campaign just like the bot, because there is no recruitment limit. I wish recruitment worked like Medieval 2 for fucks sake. Makes no sense to be able to field unlimited amount of monsters or other elites/specialized units. This leads to armies that hard-counter other armies which is just sad, because then you just lost on a meta level instead of fighting badly although this wouldn't happen against the bot, because it tries to maintain some logic to it's recruitment.
>>180486097
One thing I've noticed in recent games is that the AI is getting very good at cheesing the game. It's as if CA can't be bothered to make competent AI so they just make them cheat, even if it goes against the source material.
>>180486097
>I never get artillery because the enemy might bring a flyer and hurt them after they've done 80% of their killing anyway.

Its strange, the wood elves are shit at archery for some reason, shit at melee and they are total shit as cavalry... is there one single thing that wood elves can do atleast moderately?
>>180486701
I just told you what getting good means in this game. It means to discarding any previous notions of how to play Total War, built a stack of unicorn units and roflstomp the shit the AI brings by playing like an asshat and charging everything 1vs1 with superior units. Formations and shit don't mean anything anymore. Even worse you'll get your shit clogged up and have to spend a trillion clicks on getting some faggots to disengage. Now this might just sound logical to bring the better units and attack the weaker units, but it's nothing special to do that when there is no limit to elite units besides holding back as a player.
>>180487258
>as opposed to a light cav going around and hitting your artillery?
Yep another point, why even enable the bot to do that. Why even bring a squishy unit that has limited benefits and is very situational when I can bring fucking griphon knights.

Also didn't Attila not have this problem?
>>180487925
Well against dwarves they are kinda nice because they are very melee oriented and get rekt at open field. But against Beastmen, other wood elves, Bretonnians and even orcs wood elves get rekt at every turn. I never really outright won a battle without losing half my army to Skarsnik or some Beast Hobos.
>>180487624
this whole post is fake news, get your head out of your ass and learn what a halberd is
that artillery you are swearing up and down is useless will rip all those big units to shreds and the only magic worth anything are the spells that just apply the effects of yari walls. Fucking spamming peasants was the dominant meta for the majority of the game's lifespan. Just kill yourself man

"I'm getting far too old for this shit"

>Fucking spamming peasants was the dominant meta for the majority of the game's lifespan
As it should be? Ashigaru made up the bulk of any Shogun's army.
>>180488626
their generals are incredibly good and can have amazing traits like one that gives every ranged unit +12% range, Orion is a beast that can solo armies, eternal guard with shields is very durable, has armour penetration and anti-large, and with if led by a general with one of the elven council positions they have extra 20 armour on top of their already good base armour, wild riders with shields are solid cavalry that moves fast, has frenzy and can ruin any infantrymans day with a rear charge
>>180488412
>a dude who literally has Sauron's eye on his forehead gets ambushed

No point if you have Attila.
Yes.
Not really unless you badly want to play as a specific faction.
>>180488626
>Only good units that they have.
t. Retard
>Eternal Guard
These guys are your most basic inf and have AP, anti-large, great morale, and the shielded variant have great missile block chance (50% iirc)
>Treekin
Incredibly tanky monstrous unit - these guys just refuse to die unless facing ap anti large units or things with fire damage
>glade guard
Your most basic archer unit has the best range in the game, as well as ap magic damage and poison damage variants
>Wardancers w/ Asrai Spears
While the regular wardancers blow chunks, these guys are basically the welf version of slayers, with great ap and anti large and great speed to catch any large units that try to get away from them
>Wild Riders
Great melee cav with great speed, and amazing charge bonus thanks to frenzy. Their impact damage is great and they also have a physical resistance. They will do wonders if used correctly
>Magic
Welfs have one of if not the best lore of magic in the game w/ the lore of life, and have great synergy with lots of low model units that benefit from it (treekin/men, hawk riders, forest dragons, lords)

As in what you're saying right now is not fucking relevant because that is still the most viable thing to do. There's like 20 workshop mods trying to figure out how to get the ai to recruit a single like t3 heavy infantry and here you are complaining about this bullshit imaginary scenario where a 20 stack of demigryphs is kicking your ass.
>Great now I got my halberds ready to go pierce some armor and stab some monsters, but shit wait, I am now fighting a stack full of night goblins which render my halberd infantry obsolete...
What kind of fucking autism is this. Are you having problems with monsters or not? How the hell is a full stack of goblins a fucking issue? Is this just some new form of bait? What are you even bitching about anymore?
>>180489138
Just as planned.
>>180488626
What the fuck are you talking about
Wood Elves have like, 2-3 units in their roster that are actually bad.
>welves are bad
I was ambushed in this battle, and still won easily
How important are unit ranks?
>>180489853
they also look neat
>>180489650
heck
time to send him off into the wide water on a piece of ice
>>180488743
He was the general who you start out with in the province next to the quadians, and held off their initial assault and retaliated by eradicating them. He then destroyed both the Visigoths and the Ostrogoths, as well as several migrating Steppe Tribes, and was kicking so much ass the game had to assign him the "Arrogant" trait. I'm using a mod that changes offices to be more like AoC where iirc they were indefinite appointments (this makes them 200 turns long, 50 fucking years) and he just finished his term of office as supreme commander - thats how long he has been kicking ass. He is the only remaining man from the original group of generals that saved the empire from the barbarian incursions at the beginning of the campaign.
>>180489650
what mods were you using? I've only ever seen AI faction leaders get that old
>>180490126
>next to the quadians, and held off their initial assault
>not just eradicating quadians on turn1
>>180489692
>. There's like 20 workshop mods trying to figure out how to get the ai to recruit a single like t3 heavy infantry
I had luck with the "better building management" Mod.
>>180490126
no mod, fucker just managed to live that long. He died like a turn or two later. I regret not sending him out in battle, just strapped to a chariot like a roman black coach.
>>180488972
>>180489450
>>180489797
Than how the fuck do I lose every battle against other welfs? That's bullshit, I flank them, I encircle them I put pressure on them. WORTH JACKSHIT. Because not one single unit does any good kills. I can send them against any fucking worthless unit, they die. What the fuck is this shit?!
Am I missing something here? Is there something in Warhammer total war that isn't in all the other games? I always am in the upper hand yet still lose how can that be?! That reminds me of shogun 2 multiplayer actually. Same shit. Some asshole got a couple of perks and he was basically invincible atleast for you as newcomer.

>>180490875
Normal, its just insane! It doesn't matter what the hell I do they lose. I think something isn't right here but I have no idea what it could be... I can literally send a wardancer of mine against a wardancer of theirs and my will lose 100 %.
>>180490807
Hey I just state what I see.
>>180491354
Are you doing something silly like not charging them?
>go to attack a settlement
>overwhelmingly positive balance of power
>add a single hero unit, don't remove anything units, nothing else different
>barely positive balance of power
what kind of flaming hot bullshit is this
>>180491576
Does your hero have some kind of campaign effect that reduces enemy leadership or something that doesn't work when it's embedded in a unit?
>>180491429
I do charge them too! I actually put those spearman with shields on the front. Flank with wardancer, while my archers shoot at them from behind my lines. Next I charge in with my cavalry into their rear and try to decimate their archers to no avail.
There must be something I miss out on...

>>180492031
They also recently hiked up the prices too in other countries, an increase of 40 percent in south america or something.
>>180492031
Paradox take it to extremes, but the amount of Warhammer DLC isn't that different from the amount of DLC that Rome 2 and Atilla got
>>180492248
also the DLC is better because it isn't just guys with different hats on and maybe a camel.
>>180491734
no, not deployed or any items affecting the enemy either.
Just one of those wonderful CA things I guess
>>180492248
I liked rome 2 DLC because none of it was interesting and I didn't have to buy any of it. I was perfectly happy with that.
>>180492334
Those camels are pretty hardcore though
Even in Atilla just charging braced spearmen headon and easily winning is certainly unique
>>180492248
I feel like it's kind of more jewish though because of they bundle it up
>oh you want to play as Beastmen? Well then here you go, but have fun also paying for this mini campaign which is total shit because we only made it to bloat up the price too!
>oh you want to have all the units for the Empire? Well I sure hope you also want to play as bald magic man haha! (you definitely don't)
Rome 2 had those two unit DLC's from what I recall, kikery imo
Attila was nice because it really felt like you didn't miss anything at all if you didn't own the DLC and played as a vanilla faction
Warhammer still patches everything in but with the AI that's the same faction as you recruiting units you can't it feels bad

>>180492631
I don't like the bundled campaigns but I find the LL DLCs are more interesting than most of the DLC factions in Atilla, solely because you get units that fufill different roles and with belegar and skarsnik it changes the campaign a lot
Attila DLC are -75% on Steam
What recent TW:s should I buy from the sale, I have Empire, Napoleon, Shogun 2 and TW:WH plus the old ones already.

This is slowly sucking the fun out of this campaign for me. The late-game climate in Attila is fucking retarded unless you are a barbarian, and it really fucking ruins the late-game north of sicily/spain/the levant
Thanks for the advice my /twg/ friends!
>>180493764

That's about what I would expect at a minimum :^)

Okay das' it screenshots don't work for some reason I only get a black screen. But I went ahead and made a custom battle.

They are already dead, the factions that are up there are Atropatene and the Rugians. The rugians are the last barbarians in the game

While I'm here some anon recommended the other day that as the VC I try going South and conquering the empire the long way round.
So far this has been one of my most enjoyable campaigns. The dorfs all hate me but the orcs love me. Grimgor won the badlands bowl and while I had to eat Averland on the way down, the empire has almost entirely ignored me. Except Stirland so I ate them too.
110 turns in and I still haven't built a unit recruitment building due to a massive amount of huge battle sites.

Mash the button when the loading bar is almost done. You generally get one out of it.

alternatively make it borderless windowed and use the snipping tool
>>180496143
>>180496046
spam f12 right when the loading screen begins/ends. I usually do begins as that avoids the sometimes dark screenshots you get if you do it when it ends

Just use Gyazo or something like that on fullscreen windowed
>>180496160
Is there a button combination for borderless window?

Nope.

For one, only two real factions. Second, it'd upset the player base no matter how they handle it. They either alienate people by allowing you to play as the Confederacy or by not allowing you to play as the Confederacy. Not to mention how they'd handle slavery. It's an era that in terms of gameplay mechanics would be interesting but is just too much of an emotional powderkeg for Americans, especially in today's politically charged environment.

I don't think there is any way whatsoever to handle that in a Total War game without pissing everyone off
>>180499005
I own both. Bloodbowl II is still just bloodbowl with some nicer graphics. I didnt play it too much but I think it had less single player option and more Multiplayer.
Mordheim is a really punishing and gloomy game, nice amount of options but it punishes you in the same manner as darkest dungeon. I quite enjoyed my skaven run until I got to a difficult level that required taking out an ogre with 120hp wheras most of my units only had 20-30. Killed my motivation from there.
>>180499317
Just any you have no intention of playing.
>>180498326
Sounds like the Sengoku era again, between big battles that could have gone another way entirely and changed history quite a lot. Okehazama, Kawanakajima, Kanegasaki, Anegawa, Nagashino, Sekigahara, etc.. They never really focused on Nobunaga's rise to power either, always started in the earlier part of the era.
>>180499183
They aren't.
There are 15 races that had armybooks that were legal during 8th edition, the edition that TWWH is based on.
That leaves one
The last race that had an armybook that never got updated was Chaos Dwarfs who last had a proper armybook during 5th edition.
And also if they're ever gonna add Ogres as anything other than a fucking horde faction (Which they will need to if they wanna use more than 1 of their lord characters) then Chaorfs are pretty much required since the Mountains of Mourne where the Ogres live is behind where the Chaos Dwarfs live
>>180499691
I have no intention of playing Beastmen or Chaos Warriors. If I don't purchase them, they still appear in game, correct?

Grim&Grave and King&Warlord have units for the four base game factions though, the AI of the same faction as you still gets to use them even if you don't own the DLC so the "we patch everything in" thing is kind of a stab in the dick as well
Does anyone remember when in early Total Warhammer they tried to push this thing where you would fight a limited Chaos without all the units if you didn't own the DLC?

>>180497675
It's thematic.
>>180499858
I'm biased because i love em but beastmemes are the funnest campaign.
>>180499521
Its fucking sad lad. If the attitude of social justice is allowed to be any more pervasive we wontt even be allowed to have any total war games because they celebrate patriarchy and white racists.
Their attitude is to tear down anything "great". Don't have to think that the confederates were in the right but you can present their arguments and leave it up to the player to play it out.

It's thematic Anon, the games theme is "Apocalypse" and that fits in with that. The end of the world and whatnot, that make that very clear
There is no real historical basis, but that can be said for 90% of things happening in Total War games

I know they're mine.If we didn't already know Hydras were in since before the WH2 announcement I'd fear they would be Charlememe'd though.
Just picked up wood elves in the sale. couple quick questions before i play.
I saw in the thread that while most of their units are good a couple of their units just suck. Which ones should i avoid?
Should i focus on confederating the other factions before anything else like Bretonnian?
And for the Elf lord/heroes what spells are ones that are must get and which are just kinda meh?
>>180501191

At least call them kunoichi and governors or something. And the era was ride with betrayal, backstabbing, and plundering, you're not going to turn a long time ally against you just because you went back on a promise with a short-term ally. Nor are your samurai going to constantly shout about shame and shit. Not even getting into how taking down the Ashikaga wouldn't cause everyone to suddenly hate you.
Also why the fuck is the Iga Republic called Hattori.

Eggscum 2's upcoming expansion looks like awfully good fun.
>>180501982
Never actually used them because by the time I always got them I also had Forest Dragons, but I imagine they're just a weaker version of those. Hammer like a ton of bricks but not good for sustained combat without an anvil holding their foe.But again, never used them so I could be wrong.

I guess but they should really be swooping up and down and picking people up. I get that this wouldn't work animation wise (muh Charles mange) or balance wise but they're just a bit daft.
>>180502013
I bought X-COM2 in the sale just before the summer one because I figured it wouldn't go lower anyway, for the price paid it's not so bad. Will likely get better once the expansion involving the ayy edgelords hits.

>>180502849
They're an abortion that GW has long since swept under the rug.
Mostly due to the fact that a major aspect of their lore was the fact that they reproduced solely by kidnapping and raping human women.
>>180502498
Eh, not a fan of the militia. I just suck at using. I'd rather get another cav or ranged unit instead. Still, it's a kinda ragtag army that I quickly assembled to calm the fuck down Ostland.

I think ERE is a decent starter faction. You learn to deal with hordes, public order, and food without being completely swamped like the WRE.
>>180503887
And not like it's really worth it. If there would be a lot of AAA rts and whatnot using the mustard race power i would buy a good in a heartbeat. But no all we have is mostly multiplat shit or games too clunky for consoles
>>180504189
Sillykids are the way to go, yes. Very powerful faction with an easy start. Be carful of the white huns though

>>180504828
Minotaurs are the only reason you need
Shitting your way across the map is nice too but you've still got that horrible start
>>180504250
They're not one of the four races at launch, so seems plausible desu.
I am expecting Kangz to get the Wood Elf treatment - their part of the map being inaccessible until their DLC is done.
What's the best Total War for a person that likes building tall in a somewhat orderly campaign?
>>180504828
Beastmemes have a unique campaign, Their start is fun and challenging and because you're a horde you can fight who you like. Minotaurs are good fun, as are centigors. My favourite faction in TW:W. Least favourite VC
>want to purchase Beastman DLC
>can't shake the feeling that I'm getting fucking kiked
What is this "shitty mini campaign to bloat the price" bullshit?
I want to buy the thing and 10 shekels really isn't a problem but I just can't get this fat man with a suit and a giant hooked nose who's sitting in his office at SEGA and rubbing his hands, laughing and laughing about how I fucking fell for it and played right into his hands out of my head
>>180504828
Minotaurs are by far the most fun unit in the game. Their campaign mechanics are also solid, chance to ambush with every attack, ability to hide when in trouble so you don't get chased across the map with a near dead stack i.e Chaos. Minicampaign is pretty crud though and their roster while fun, does lack the most out of all the races. Very fun to play even so.

should I do it? is that a good deal? I absolutely detest Rome II but I've never tried Attila before.
>>180513419
Attila is a great game, Id would however recommend going as cheap as possible if it's your first go at it. Just get the base game and play it for a bit, if you like it you can pick up the dlcs later. I mean the sale isn't over today is it?
>>180505304
I prefer to think of the fact that I've played over 1000 hours in Total Warhammer , and I've payed probably less than 50$ with game and DLCs combined

Lad they're one of the strongest campaign armies, the only reason you lost is because Welves are also one of the hardest campaign armies to fight:

>Tree monsters very persistent (others not so much, but by the time you've beat them archer units have kited away, shooting you as you try to chase)
>Murder deers then hit you up the arse (or drag your cav well away from the main engagement)
>>180515784
rockets are worthless unless naval battle.
>>180515784
well in the 2 examples I listed those don't have enough ap to be effective, whereas the cannons do and will often bounce/roll through the formation and kill quite a few troops

They haven't announced what the new "race" is yet have they?
Are they custom map packs worth it at all? I'm definitely looking for some new ways to spice up the battle map scene, especially for sieges.
>>180514996
Use cannons to whittle down heroes and large units
Use hellfire rockets to shit on basic infantry clumps.
I like sending flagellants forward since they're unbreakable and holding up most of the enemy defense while my artillery goes to town. Once they reach my main force several of the enemy units are already at half health

Helfs have:

>Fast charge/melee cav (Silver Helms)
>Fast elite cav (Dragon Princes)
Anyone else concerned Delfs are going to lose the flank cav battles?
Slow cav, like Orc boar boys, aren't that useful for the flank cav vs cav battles (they don't catch their quarry) and Dark Riders won't pack a punch.
Here's hoping they make Repeater Crossbows OP so they become top tier missile cav (but no crossbow unit has good AP compared to gunpowder units).
Doomfire Warlocks with Doombolt might have a use depending on how powerful they make the spell and what cooldown they put on it.

Khazrak has positioned his herd to attack from 3 angles, ungor raiders and spearmen on the man-filths right flank, dogbeasts from the rear and the main assault of Gors, Harpies and Minotaurs head on.
>>180521734
>beastmen
>using any tactics outside of "run right at them"
VERY unbeastlike, and probably human loving too. Khazrak is not my beastlord
>>180521734
Fearing the focused fire of the manfilths ballistics, Khazrak sends in a lone Manticore to disrupt their lines.
With the human positions compromised, the rest of the herd moves in to engage.
>>180522217
The engagement on the left flank goes favourably for the beasts. Ungor spears tie up flagellants and human spearmen while raiders lay missiles into their backs.
Chaos warhounds engage militia and crossbowmen to the rear while the front assault up the hill gets underway without too many casualties for the beastmen.
So last thread there was some speculation Rome 2 might be getting a dlc again after all this time. I'm very wary and I don't think I believe it. Some anons said there was proof but iv googled all over and haven't found shit.
Is there new "historical total war dlc" just going to be another boring culture pack for Attila? Because that sounds way more fucking likely
>>180522681
The battle takes a turn for the brayherd. The shaman is brought low by the combined might of the General and Captain and makes to flee the battle. Ungors and gors nearby begin to lose their resolve and flee.
Crossbowmen and free company militia having fought off the worst of the harpy and warhound assaults have free rein to fire upon the beasts that haven't begun to flee
>>180522925
It's a pre-Rome minicampaign for Rome 2, to gauge interest in going further back into El Ageo Bronzoni, or The Bronze Age as we call it.
>>180523338
So we talking Kingdom of Rome here? Pre Republic?
>>180522925
Nobody knows, but the reason people are assuming R2 is because the concept art heavily implies the content will be taking place during the R2 timespan
>>180523128
Khazrak manages to kill both the empire captain and general, but the remaining human ranged forces rally around the suicidal flagellants that stand up to his lash and sword.
The last surviving flagellant calls upon the men to keep fighting, they can bring down the one eye, all is not lost!
>>180523546
Ignore the other anon, nothing is announced that isn't in the OP. Read that.
>>180523546
Correctamundi, we're really excited to unveil it in August.
>>180477932
cool picture, really dig it
>>180523602
He is killed immediately after, but the men have taken his message to heart.
The lowly beasts are fleeing and all that remains is to kill the one eye himself, surely he cannot withstand the combined might of their arrows and shot!
>this can't be happening!
>>180523971
But withstand the one eye does. The raw rage and thirst for revenge upon Todbringer drive Khazrak headfirst into the remaining ranged units, they can't withstand his onslaught and flee the field.
Khazrak scrapes another victory and wipes Carroburg off the map

Probably the closest battle i've ever had with AI. The beastmemes campaign was all steamrolling from here on.
Ungors with triple digit kills, noice give them a promotion.
Is it normal that by 404 or so as ERE you're mostly hemmed in and on the defensive? I kicked the shit out of the Persians but holding iraq is becoming less practical by the moment and I'm dealing with constant hordes of Germans and Bedouins and fucking Iranian shits and don't feel as if I can even think of expanding for now.

>>180520937
Delfs have harpies which could act asshitcharge interceptors too and pin units for a Cold One charge.
Still concerned their lack of hard hitting mobile cav will see Delfs beaten on the flanks.
Playstyle may be to use Crossbow Dark Riders and Doomfire Warlocks to missile harrass enemy cav and draw them away from the main engagement and towards ambushes, while keeping the Cold Ones closer to the line for tighter flank charges (rather than the wide ranging movements of faster cav) closer to the line.
Cold Ones getting the Velocipator treatment should be very good in sustained melee close to the line anyway.
I wouldn't read too much into Helf stats from the demo battle, they were there as foils to showcase & lose to Lizards.

While Hitler wishes to conquer the world, sigmar likes to make friends.

>>180531531
I think you misread his post.
>>180531458
Dwarfs have basically no large/cavalry so avoid units like spearmen and halberdiers and make sure you stock up on armor piercing (handgunners, greatswords, etc) since that's a major focus in dwarf units. If you use artillery avoid using cannons since those are more for large and single units, hellfire battery will let you do more damage overall to groups.
>>180531686
Nevermind misread your post>>180531458
Basically as dwarfs make sure you get anti-large and in general keep a decent mix as possible since the Empire is basically good at everything Empire cav can really fuck you up as well as missles so getting shielded and anti-cav is your best bet

I kind of made a mess of my first time playing cause i completely under estimated how little early on the little forts help in terms of income.

Bretonnia and Bretonnia only. Vanilla races are useless without their DLCs so the only option was getting Fay Enchantress, a Flying Pegasus squad and hero sniping people to oblivion.
>>180534783
I'd say Medieval 2, it's the best of the pre-warscape games plus has a lot of total conversion mods.
But Shogun 2 is also really solid but does suffer from a lack of faction diversity.
Rome is fine it's just not as polished/expansive as Medieval 2.

State of the Empire as of 460 AD
I had to spend a long time researching civic techs and building up my economy before I could really go all in on the Sassanids, but now I am making around 20k/turn and am making steady progress into anatolia. I've turned Dacia into a military recruitment province so that I don't have to travel as far to re-fill any depleted armies.
Atropatene yoinked the last Rugian settlement in the steppe from my grasp, so there still is an enemy prescence up there. However Macedonia loves me because of my war against the Sassanids, so I may be able to launch expeditions up there from their territory.
I was sure that the ERE was going to get finished off by the Sassanids, but somehow they have managed to counterattack and push into Syria.
The sissynig armies are a pain in the ass to deal with since WRE cavalry is absolute dogshit and my autism dictates that I only use Herculiani in an army with the Emperor/his heir in it. It also doesn't help that your best skirmishers have slinger-tier range and get massacred by Kurdish archers, which leaves you defenseless against the endless waves of sissynid crossbow cav. It doesn't help that the AI seems to be able to charge its cataphracts into my braced frontline and still end up killing half of my unit, which is just ridiculous.
>>180536672
>>180534783
Depends anon, you picked some of the older ones. Now the question is if you really are interested in older games in general.
If you're truely new to the series I'd rather recommend you shogun 2 or maybe rome 2 or Attila.
Everything before that has the potential to scare you away, simply because Medieval 2 and rome 1 are both a bit older games.

>>180539226
I like it, got 900 hours with it. But even so I can admit that it's a full on autism-simulator. The battles are slow af, the supply system can be annoying, the population mechanic can make invasions take forever due to not getting reinforce. Submods exist for everything tho, so give it a try.

>>180539930
I mean can you visit the region of modern France
>>180539769
Only submod I use is faster battles 2.0. I like the slowness on the campaign map. The supply system is basically you need to keep supply lines to your armies by adding a baggage train to the army, keep supplies high in the regions by buildings that increase it and not let an army sit forever in any one region because it eats supply. When transporting across the seas you'll need a babysitter fleet with supply ship or you'll lose half your army to attrition.
The population thing is a integrated mod, think it's called peoples of Rome or something. It gives you a pool of people to recruit from, say you wanna get some Equites, well, you can't if there are no Patricians in the region and so on.
DeI got its own icons, no pottery.
Javelins can do work but got low ammo, usually need to flank with them to get good results.

First off that's boring, second France fielded heavy cavalry long until the wheellock pistol then heavy cav became mid cav unless you were a Turk, third off then they don't have the lady's blessing and the Wood elves eat them

But then they would never receive the blessings of the lady, and they would never be able to match the empires levels of technology anyways. They'd be fucked.

So you have to disband armies, or does this lead to development of garrison towns, so the Jewish legion only stays in Israel.

>>180540150

Steam sale Warhammer newb here, is there any reason to keep farms once I have a province maxed out on the main building lines?
Just bought TWWand all the DLC
Is it true that there are certain settlements that cannot be conquered by specific factions? If so is there a map of this (especially for Empire)?
>>180540262
Disband armies if they're not needed, or move them around. Total War is a constant expansion, so I just usually invade something new when I need to.
Your towns have garrisons by themselves, but a region with good food production can keep an army in it for a long time, so it's not like you need to shuffle all the time. It's mostly a problem in newly conquered or heavily fought over regions that haven't had a chance to stabilize.
I play on h/n or vh/n if feeling like it. The AI is what you can expect from a total war game... ie not that good. The difficulty lies in not overexpanding and getting ganged up on by too many factions at once. My last campaign I was doing Romans, when I started fucking Carthage in north africa the greeks, ptolemys and thracians all started pushing my eastern borders.
Raiding was made better for barbarian factions I think, havent played barbar in a while. I *think* they get supply from it.
No pottery icons at all left in the mod, it's all photo.
a single army has 20 units, you can field 2 armies at the same time, so 40 units, vs 40 units. It's quite common to get those size battles, and DeI increase the unit sizes as well. Standard infantry is 240-300 unit man strong.
There's a "softcore" mod I think that reduce unit upkeep, imperium penalties etc.
>>180478796
4 meat my boi.
>>180540561
Any settlement that is occupied by a Dwarf or Greenskin faction cannot be occupied by humies/vamps and vice versa. Welves can conquer anywhere but the settlements are pushovers
>>180540561
White is where human factions and vampires can settle. Blue is for dwarfs and greenskins. Elfs can settle anywhere.

Sack or raze, really
After WH2 releases and they do the grand campaign patch you'll be able to conquer anywhere
>>180540831
>raze
I assume this works the same way as it does in Attila

>After WH2 releases and they do the grand campaign patch you'll be able to conquer anywhere
Why did they decide to do this? Don't get me wrong, I'm not against it but it seems weird to have limited it in WH1 to begin with.
Anyone else /suck at battles here/?
I'm trying to practice with battle realism on very hard with AI with about evenly matched armies and the best I can ever get is valiant defeat. From what I understand AI is still easy peasy tier on max difficulty. Any tips?
>>180540859
It destroys everything and turns it into a ruin that an appropriate faction can settle and rebuild.
>>180540890
>tfw no knife-ear gf
>>180540926
Alright, I think I've got my campaign planned out
>>180540898
The rationale behind their decision seems to be that it would be too much effort to balance the game to accommodate for factions like Greenskins blobbing while still providing some level of challenge, or something

>>180540914
>Any tips?
too vague of a question, what faction are you playing? which tw title? whats your army composition? If you are just shit at micro then all you can do is stop using pause and practise, eventually you will get better
Is there any word on a Warhammer patch/DLC to let you play as the other provinces of the Empire?
>>180541013
Its better for making late game scenarios where there's actually another powerful faction to fight (even though it'll probably be mostly dwarves since chaos fucks up everything north of the reikland)
>>180540914
Always put two anti-large units to your flanks and one to near your artillery.
You either turtle or go balls deep.
Pick your frontline considering the weakness of your opponent's faction (ie Great Weapons against Dwarves etc)
>>180540914
Pretty sure the AI gets moral and stat bonuses on higher difficulties so I don't see why anyone would play with a battle difficulty higher than normal. It's not like it makes the AI any smarter.
>>180538606
Just get what you think you'll enjoy, they all add in things that are useful.
The race packs are self explanatory they're well done just read the steam page and see if they're something you'd play. The only weak one is Chaos because they're under cooked and have a pretty boring campaign.
the lord packs are both pretty useful. Grim and the Grave is good if you like playing Empire/Vamps. But King and the Warlord has the most bang for buck, giving you two new factions with a new objective on top of new characters and units.
The good thing is any DLC/factions you don't get will still show up for NPC's so you can still fight factions you've not brought etc.
And in my opinion the blood pack is worth it, playing without gore just feels wrong and things like the dismemberment stuff working on vampire count units is pretty fun. If the blood is too over the top for you though I'd recommend the 'less blood less gore' mod.
Also be sure you activate the FLC stuff on the store page, it doesn't activate automatically which is annoying.

Are we absolutely sure Mannlet really is Vlad's get?
Not only does Archaon refuse to be redirected to Northland, he has to be a dick about it too.
>>180541280
>so I don't see why anyone would play with a battle difficulty higher than normal
because the game is piss-easy without those bonuses?
>>180541418
I dunno, it just rustles my autism when line troops become basically unbreakable. I jack up the campaign difficulty to very hard but I always leave the battle difficulty on normal.
>>180541565
>>180541280
I noticed that. The AI basically never routs on very hard, even if they have literally 200 health left. Unless their general is dead.

Playing Warhammer, trying various combinations. Trying to win an Empire v Dwarfs battle currently, my biggest issue is just not utilizing idle troops because so much shit is going on.
>>180540491
Yes if they increase replenishment rate
>>180541680
>is just not utilizing idle troops
well that can only be improved with practice, there is no trick or secret to it
>Empire v Dwarfs battle currently
this can actually be pretty difficult early on, because you probably have no armour pen, and manlets have a ton of armour, you need halberdiers, or gunners, or artillery
>>180540634
Have they changed maps at all like in warhammer
If I release soldiers does that increase the population, thus reflecting actual Roman imperialism
How reliable are vassals in this game, will they just declare independence when you're weak in war
When you say 2 armies at a time do you mean only one can reinforce or ...
Also can my war fleets engage enemies on the coast but aren't in settlements, like sailors disembarking
>>180539736
>>180539627
Can recommend it. I played a lot of Europa Barbarorum and recently a bit of Rome 2 with Radiou before trying it out. Normally with Rome I manage to basically kick the shit out of Carthage in no time flat. In this one Epirus managed to take Benevuntum from me, raid Umbria while I was trying to reconquer Benevuntum, and then fought a few more battles over the area while Sicily took Rhegion from me. Eventually I managed to stabilise my economy enough that I could raise two large armies to push Phyrrus out of Italy. It's the most fun I've ever had playing as Rome.
Taking cities is harder, battles take longer, soldiers march slower and slog it out for longer, morale is more important even though everyone has more of it, and you have to make decisions to keep your soldiers alive instead of making ridiculous gambits on the basis that your army will just be replenished in three turns.
Also buildings no longer cost food. Food has been entirely rebalanced.
>>180540898
It's most likely only lustria can be settled by all because of how fertile soil is.
But if we could mod settle everywhere we can mod not settle everywhere
>>180541380
Can any lorefags explain the relationship between Chaos and the Vampire Counts?
>declare war on an faction I had a trade agreement with, because they were about to wipe out a faction I had a non aggression pact with and was trying to ally with
>all of a sudden I'm MEGA HITLER and all of my allies start breaking agreements with me because I'm TOTALLY UNRELIABLE
Fuck, I'd totally understand if I declared war with a non aggression pact active but fuck it was just a trade agreement
>>180542007
they hate eachother with a passion, chaos ultimately wants souls dedicated/belonging to them while vampires have gained the powers of vampirism by binding their etheral souls to their physical bodies.
Meaning that when a vampire dies it's gone for good. Also meaning that chaos cannot get the souls of vampires.
or the souls of the dead which they raise.
>>180542185
So basically Chaos feels cucked by the Vampires
>>180542171
should have cancelled the agreement first
>>180542246
pretty much, they are stagnant so Tzeentch hates them, they raise dead and chill out so Khorne hates them, Slaanesh finds them boring I guess, and Nurgle, well no idea about that fat fuck. And again, chaos can't get their souls which causes a lot of bumhurt to the gods
>'Gist is a master, but even a master cannot hope to render such flawless beauty with a clumsy brush.'
'Gist is dead' Isabella said, lost suddenly in the memory of it.'I ate him.'
'Is, was, it matters not, countess. The choice of words is nothing but semantics. The proof of his labours is there in your hands, a timeless reminder of your beauty. If you forget yourself you need only gaze upon it as it hangs on the wall to be reminded. And for us beauty never fades.'
'Yes.' Isabella mused. 'Yes. I should like that. I am beautiful, aren't I?'
'Yes, countess.'
'And I will always be this way?'
'Yes, countess. For eternity.'
'Thank you, herman.'
>>180542463
it takes it takes like 5 god damn turns to wait for that shit to not give you a penalty.
>>180541771
Another issue I'm having is that my units seem to be routing ridiculously fast. I can have Karl safe at full health and yet my greatswords are routing if their health drops less than a quarter, which opens my frontline up for flanking
So I want to play a campaign that isn't just a hard early game and then a steamroll the rest of the time.
Any mods to make the later stages of the game more of a challenge?
>>180542246
well sorta, vampires are also really dislike their food supplies growing 3rd eyes, and chaos tainted blood is not healthy for vampires.
Feelings mutual.
>>180542463
what anon says here is true, but to add to that nurgle is absolutely fucking livid that vampires are immune to all of his sweet gifts/
>>180542463
>>180542573
I love warhammer lore tbqh
>>180542556
does your general have any traits that lower leadership? are your units getting surrounded attacked in the rear? does the enemy have terror/fear armies? Hover your mouse over the leadership bar and see why its so low, also try keeping your general in the middle of your forces for the morale boost, or get a priest to do the same, consider investing points into the red skill tree

>>180542463
I heard that nurgle fucking hate vampires. He attacked von carstein with his champions. Vlad later defended Averland against him.
But some warhammerfag told me about it, I don't know what exactly happened.
>>180543401
Nurgle got the corpse of issabella and posessed it with a greater daemon, also gave her false memories so she hated Vlad. They fought and Vlad took of his ring and forced it on Issabella's hand before killing them both, freeing her from the demon's influence.
Honestly Vlad is the best good guy.

Are wood elves and beastmen worth 11 yuropoors? And if I have to choose which one should I buy?
>>180544546
WElves in my opinion. Main campaign is tedious but the minicampaign is good. Beastmen are the reverse, their minicampaign is awful, on the main campaign they're fun.

As A Hungarian I'm pretty sure Hitler didn't think highly of us. I heard he planned to get rid of us as well as many other nations he considered slavic, despite the fact that Hungary isn't slavic at all.
