Most excited about the Lizardmen and Skaven.

But I really hope they put good effort into the HE and DE in order for them not to feel bland compared to the two above. Honestly I've loving pretty much every faction in WH1 so I hope that will be the case with WH2 as well.

Iv been hyped for lizards since i collected them when i was like 12. But now iv seen High Elves they just look so much better with their dragons, phoenixes and swag ass units. But I might replace them with Skaven if they get all their awesome tech weapons.

Playing some Fellowship Campaign in Third Age Total War. I found an interesting bug. Sometimes, Frodo can adopt people to join the Fellowship, but this one guy I adopted, had the same name as the Princess in the Umbar Quest. If you make it back to Gondor after defeating the Harad army, the quest won't complete, but keep going until the turn limit hits and you fail. The party member with the same name also dies.

I'm already doing the battle at the Pelennor Fields, but three Swan Knights aren't going to help me against Mumakil when I have Riddermark Skirmishers. Until it crashes again.

Boris is literally the worst lord you can have since he doesn't even get all of the skills generic ones have. He's likely at least level 5 with 100% of the wrong skills. It takes too long. And you can't dismiss him so he drains 200 gold a year +2% of your total.

For nothing in return.

>>180703915

>For nothing in return.

You missed the part where you have Boris as a general which is enough reason alone to confederate.

>>180704095
It also goes against the lore.
I mean the first mission is him sending assholes to help the secessionists.

>>180703915

wrong

EOU... Err, Medieval 3 when?

I dunno if you really need to minmax your generals to the extent that a level 5 general with some suboptimal skills is going to ruin your entire strategy.

I mean, oh no. One of your units is 10% less efficient in combat. Good game.

Easily the most ambitious title in the series, huge map with (imo) a really cool setting and period of history and a large amount of variety in who you can play as and starting positions. Naval battles are pretty fun, and gunpowder battles are somewhat slower paced but still enjoyable. Empire is also the best game in the series aesthetically along with Napoleon, at least for me. Shogun 2/Rome/Attila all looked a bit shittier in battles for whatever reason.

Game is particularly buggy and is lackluster in several areas e.g. one province France. Great game though and probably the biggest turning point in the series until Warhammer

Is hard difficulty still hard enough for a proper WRE campaign? I don't usually like very hard and legendary because of the excessive AI cheats, but I just got Attila and I'd like to play a campaign that's more about survival than map painting for a change.

To the curious anon from last thread: elves in Warhammer aren't immortal, just very long lived. Morathi and Malekith are prolonging their lifespans through fuckery, iirc.

So elves do have elderly people and so on.

There any good Shogun 2 of FotS mods?

Um, my fellow humans and transhumans, can we talk about the issue that is very important at this point in time.

It is very troubling that allowing migration to your land has any negative effects, especially towards the happiness of the region.

It should boost the population, wealth, happiness and every other stat. Also it should allow any group to migrate to any place. This has been addressed in TW:WH 2 with conquer anywhere setup which removed the racist division between settlements, but it should now affect migrations as well.

Pls no.

Man. Shogun 1 is hard.
You can't just swarm warrior monks with yari spearmen.
Thier warrior monks are better for some reason.

What if they made it so all infantry could fire on the move and in a 360 degree arc, but whenever a unit moved (except for certain archers like waywatchers or whatever) they would take a massive accuracy debuff until they stopped again?

Could simulate some desperate last stand inaccurate shots at charging cavalry for instance.

There will be non. What they will probably do is to give a boost to the rituals of the other three factions.
