Hype for Kraka Drak!
>>
>>182980681
We should have destroyed Norsca, every man woman and child, many years ago!

*shouting*

Enough! Dietershafen is lost, and our northern allies have failed us. Where was the last report of his whereabouts?

My Witch Hunters tell me that his forces have moved to the east, we must expect an attack on Erengrad!

This is nonsense, no attack is coming - Kislev controls Troll Country. He's not attacking, he's making allies! At this very moment he courts the One-Eye, the Beastmen! The warherds will rise up against us and the Drakwald will be lost once more!

Ridiculous! Middenland won't stand for it! Our forces have sole military access to their forests. I believe the attack will come from the Chaos Wastes themselves - he intends to travel across the World's Edge Mountains, and into Ostermark - Sylvania will revolt, and sweep across from the east

Thats wild speculation!

He will come not from the north, nor the east - our traders in the south report that he has forged an alliance with the tribes of the Bjornling. He intends to circumnavigate the Empire and sail his army-

To the Badlands perhaps!

He would lose half his army to attrition alone! The other half would desert!

We must defend Blackfire Pass!

Do you expect the orcs to welcome him when he arrives?

I suppose he will bring with him, an army of Chariots!

Elector Counts, I dare say that would be quite a feat, even for the great Surtha Ek.

It is now July, a chill wind blows in Naggaroth but the sea of malice is beginning to thaw. From Ghrond, a messenger comes bearing word of an ancient prophecy involving the lands of north Lustria. The Hag Queens offer many sacrifices to Khaine, while their underlings train relentlessy. Meanwhile the Druchii of Clar Karod whip their slaves ceaselessly in preparation for the Witch-Kings coming campaign.
A great fleet is being assembled and the armies of the Druchii arm themselves for total war, domination by a best elf soon!

Why does Attila and even Rome 2 look better than Warhammer?

I've tried to google for this and every thread I've seen where anyone has asked something like this just gets replies like "GAMEPLAY > GRAPHICS. YOU'RE RETARDED! IT LOOKS PERFECT"

but it looks like shit to me. The colors are all washed out, the lighting is really bad, and everything other than the models just looks like trash.

A minor faction is quite big. If you said to me when the first game was announced that a faction that is not one of the major 16 was getting a proper dlc, I would call bullshit but thankfully I was wrong.

These guys location wise can be in all three games so putting them in now will benefit all three games.

I played both saga and satsuma republic vanilla legendary last month

I tried tosa republic 5 times and couldn't make it work. Kinda thought of trying Aizu republic

Out teching them at sea and playing most naval battles will clean the sea for you.

Auto resolve is too expensive unless you have a clear advantage you have to win naval battles personally. You can also easily capture some enemy ships this way to use as meat sheilds in the next battle or to save if its an iron clad you can't build for example.
>>
>>182986346
>those odds
Man, FotS autoresolve is fucked if there are traditional units involved.
>>
>>182987058
you have to fight almost every battle in legendary.

if you autoresolve anything close it usually means the end of your campaign.
>>
>>182986860
Naval battles are arse though, whether or not and when your ship blows up when being fired upon seems to be totally random and I fear the odds of an engagement in legendary with the buffs the AI gets after playing battles where enemy ships would tank out 3 of my own of the same build because they all just blew up.

fuck you sigmar stop fucking with my shit
>>
>>182987320
yeah you need to out tech them, and abuse the repair button.

once you have explosive shells though its gravy. 3 ships can overwhelm 8 because you just start lighting them all on fire. and rushing them to use ships as cover.

once they get explosive shells you should then play ranged using solid shot only using explosive when they get close until you tech up to armor piercing.

The naval game is very important in FotS and if you don't like it then legendary is going to be that much harder.

its a lot of fun though once you get ramming iron clads and torpedo gunships though.

and you will be fighting a lot of uphill battles.

also defending a port is a good idea.

How do you play any faction besides chaos in this, there is always some fucking horsecock problem that each faction has to put a lot into to calm before just getting overwhelmed by Chaos because the shitbrain AI just lets Archaon snowball
>>
>>182988989
>which pretty much keeps you safe from any pro-shogun faction declaring war.

I'm not joking when I say having a land border with anyone is automatic war, no matter who they are. I was allied with the Jozai who declared war on me out of nowhere, every other ally declared war on me or were only prevented from doing so because they were ousted. Some factions even switched allegiances, I assume just to fuck me over the better.

>>182989247
Found it pretty rare that factions actually declare war out of nowhere, and if you're allied with them they nearly always break alliance a few turns before declaring war.

If factions who are meant to be friendly do declare war it's usually because you lost you're whole army so your just a sitting duck.

You can also declare war on random weak imperial factions so you're allies help and are less likely to betray you.

Since they're the only army book race which would fit, thus take priority almost assuredly.

Chorfs and Ogres are east of the Old World and Daemons are probably in the last game due to being the big bads.

Right, I found issues 6-8 of the Citadel Journal which was during Warhammer Fantasy 4th edition. They contain a Norse army so this is a good place to start. I must say it has special characters and lots of options so how much gets in I don't know (as it is 4th edition, some is outdated).

Characters
>General of the Norse
>Battle Standard-know as the Raefan or Raven Banner
>Norse Dwarf-Hero and Champion option
>Norse-Hero and Champion option
>Valkyrie-Hero version
>Shamans-Hero and Lord options

Regiments
>Huscarls-Elite infantry
>Ulfwerenar-They are men but can transform into Werewolves during battle
>Valkyries-Warrior women
>Bondsmen-Standard infantry
>Thralls
>Berserkers
>Ulfjarls-Super Ulfwerenar
>Hunters
>Beastmasters
>Giant
>Ogres
>Norse Dwarfs
>War Mammoth
>War Mammoth Battle Towers-Norsemen on the back of it, expect the Forge World model
>Norse Dwarf War Mammoth-Dwarf version

Norse Special Characters
>Erik Redaxe, High King of the Norse
>Sturmjarl, Shaman Lord of Ejsgard
>The Ravenswyrd
>Keorl Thunderhand Dragon Slayer

I can give more information if needed and it is likely that Norse units like Whalers, Reavers and Darksouls can make it as well.

Are you guys sure Malekith can even get his dick out of that armor? The guy's the knife ear equivalent of a 5000 year old kissless NEET so I've always envisioned him as being utterly consumed by Khaine's murder impulse and entirely disinterested in pleasure.

I mean, imagine how you'd feel about sex if you'd had armor fused to your flesh for millenia. His momma's the Slaaneshi degenerate.

Alright, I'm a Warhammer vet but a Total War newb. Had a crack with the Empire and Karl as my leader, pacified Riekland and took Marienburg (Except the city state outpost to the northeast, AI took that and I did not want to fight them), took the entire province/district of Nuln. Prioritized economy, Specifically getting the port in Altdorf and Marienburg highest as soon as possible, along with getting Altdorf's main building to level five.

I had three armies, one under a warrior priest, then Karl, and another priest I was using for 'ferry' duties.

Everyone to the north and east of me fucking died and while I defeated the main Chaos invasion (Archaon, Kholek, Sigvald and Harvey Birdman) the Varg and the Vampires to the east were busy ruining my shit.

Where did I go wrong? What should I have done better? Gone and smashed Middenland and used that as my bulwark against the Chaos nutters? Recruited more armies? I won at least 90% of my battles, but lost the war.

One mod I'm using is one that beefs up the orc hordes. Skulsplitters were threathening my borders around marienburg with two stacks, and I couldnt get my own there in time.

due to my recent success with bordeleaux, I decided to see if I could call anyone nearby to help, and to my great surprise, Leoncoeur was also willing to become my vassel - in return for me reclaring war on skaeling.

Your job is to get a coalition together against Chaos.
You can usually get most of the Empire states. Brettonia and maybe the Dwarfs.
Make sure you all got Military accces so you can move through each others territories and coordinate targets (especially useful for catching Norse stacks).

Play how Karl Franz would play.

>>183013821
I mean, I'd like it, but I don't think it warrants its own race pack, and they'd have to give a second start position since that's already been announced. Maybe Mallobaude as Mousillon proper and Kemmler as an undead horde as some people have said.

But the only new unit you need to add are Knights of the Black Grail.

Not really; her and Finubar are nowhere near Tyrion's and Teclis' popularity or prevelance in the lore.

I do intermittent fasting. I fast a full 24 hours then I will eat the next day any where from 1 to 6pm. I eat about one meal and then I'm full and it's not even a large meal. Helps to really reduce your appetite and feel much more satisfied when I do eat. My favorite thing that has happened from it has been reduction in cravings for sweets.

Seriously tho, Skaven weren't present in reveal trailer, been teased for so long, will probably sell the game and are probably the most know, liked and original faction in Warhammer Fantasy. I wouldn't be surprised if they got annouced with their own CGI trailer which is also announcement for Combined Campaign given that Skaven are everywhere.

>So the biggest change we’ll be making with the first large DLC for Warhammer II is to swap out the mini campaign for two more additional Legendary Lords, for a total of 4 playable Lords in the pack. These four will each have their own factions, unique start positions, quests-chains, epic gear, benefits and playstyle… the whole nine yards. They’ll be playable in both the Eye of the Vortex campaign and the forthcoming combined campaign map, if you also own Warhammer 1. So twice as many play-through opportunities than before. We’ll be watching closely to see if players think this is a good trade.

Manny convinces tyrion to take sword of khaine, then he kills malekith, orion and franz, gets backstabbed by manny who gets killed by vlad, meanwhile grimgor headbutts vlad when he got wounded in the fight and claims "grimgor is da best" then he goes to the fatass in the walking throne and trounces him.

Khazrak, buttmad that franz was killed, look for anyone to fight, finds Mazdamundi then get blown up by mind powers, Archaon kills mazdamundi then go for the final showdown with grimgor.

He kills grimgor because he is not wounded now.

Guys how do I play Vampire Cunts?

Tried it once before and felt I was doing well, but suddenly Empire rolled around and it was rape-city.

I can only recruit in my own provinces unless I'm willing to fire up troop-buildings in every new province.

How the fuck do I do this if the best I can muster on the quick are some shitty zombies when Empire rolls around with artillery and shit?

Please advise.

To be fair they're an easy thing to overlook. I never realized the sheer utility of the fuckers until the beastmen campaign where I had to recruit a bunch of of dogs for Khazrak's quest. They're a prime destroyer in my armies ever since.

>>183027117
>Are the dogs that good? They feel a little squishy to me. Maybe I should aim them more at back-attacks...
They've got the speed of the wind, will tear apart things like artillery crews and most ranged and thanks to their speed can run away from any trouble. Use them to hit unsuspecting targets and bolt away before anything can attack them.
>>
>>183027412

I'll try to use more dogs then! Thanks!

Also, is Mannlets magic really powerful or is it just me? I overcast that blood-school healing magic like a motherfucker. No unit leaves with anything left in their regen-pool if I can help it.

How about the Reichland Knights? They charge in and rape, and even my sturdy shielded pikeskellies can't seem to hold them off.

He's got Vampire and Death, the two best schools in the game. He tries to compensate for height with magical power, hasn't stopped people laughing at him though.

>How about the Reichland Knights?
If you don't have monsters or your own cav to take them yet, bog them down in fodder. It's hard to wade through a mob of zombies allowing your spears to take them down.

>>183027935
Fell Bats also bog down powerful flying lords in the air almost totally making their power useless. I once had an multiplayer game where two flocks of harpies tore my dragon mounted Mannlet to shreds because I had no way to fight them off other than bite through one by one and the occasional Fate of Bjuna. It was hilariously effective the way he just shut me down.

You have fliers and cavalry for their artillery. And if you just run in Big Manny he will eat up their artillery and then fly away more than likely. Plus any loses from artillery can potentially be incantationed back up.

Also if you didn't know, empowered incantation of nehek gives it AoE. Shit's wack as fuck.

>>183028881
don't blame him, blame CA's shitty system
>>
>>183028505
Early game they are, all your low tier units can't stand up to similar varieties of most other factions. You get some helpful tools like all your units inflicting terror because undead freakshow and things like being able to raise zombies at will to bog down anything in your casting range so it's not like you can't win fights. Also depending on who you start with you can use your starting units to great effect, Mannlet gets a Varghulf and keeping it alive means it'll smash like a champ with same story for other vamp lords and their starting unit. Not to mention all your lords having Invocation of Nehek.
>>
>>183028881
Not that guy, but in fairness even in a 150 turn game you're probably only going to see 20-25 battles worth fighting, and the rest are just your 50 thousand high tier troops versus their level 2 garrison #69. Most battles aren't worth fighting and should just be autocalced.
>>
>>183028881
There's no point in playing more than that unless you fucked up or you're one of those noobs who needs 300 turns to finish a campaign
>>
>>183028929
What if CA overhauled the battle system and made you fight in a grid-based tactical map?

>>183026089
Ok you got awful advices so I'm actually going to tell you what you need to do: you need to get a rape train going as soon as possible and never stop raping.

Get a second general on turn 1 or 2, fill you first army with skellies and zombies, use raise the dead to get some units in your second army and start moving them together. That'll start the rape train allowing you to reach Marienburg by turn 40 or so.

The trick is that with raise dead you'll never need to go back to recruit higher level units because the as the rape train generates higher and higher levels of massacre, it will allow you to raise higher and higher tiers of units.

Having the units of reknown DLC helps a lot.

>After holding a city-spanning forcefield up for decades during the Great Catastrophe against a literally neverending tide of Daemons, he got fed up of that and turned the field into a titanic explosion that vapourised a hundred thousand of them. As the daemons promptly pulled another infinite horde out of their asses and kept coming, Kroak proceeded to pull his sleeves up and bring out the titanic apocalypse magic that should really have been reserved for the Old Ones themselves. The army book describes it as goddamn time stopping as reality itself struggled to accommodate the tide of bullshit emitting from Kroak's mind, the world around his city folding in on itself to stem the tide of daemons.
>They penetrated his defences regardless, and Kroak was ripped to shreds by no less than a dozen Bloodthirsters. Doesn't matter though, as at this point he's too goddamn powerful to give a shit about being dead, and his unstoppable spirit continues to defy them. He basically becomes the singularity at this point, as the world turns blindingly bright and the daemonic horde pretty much just stops existing altogether.

Annihilate them, unfortunately as vampries you can't trust any faction, you can basically forget about any kind of meaningful diplomatic option. (which sucks) But that also mean that you can skip the tradable ressource buildings. You should preferably start capturing stuff by turn 3.

The good news is that Mannfred is a vampire killer, you can win battles by just having him rush forward and caste a couple of spirit leech on the enemy vampire before the armies even clash

What ends Chaos in the game? Defeating Archaeon and Sarthorael? Do you have to beat them both before the other one recovers from being 'wounded'?

>>183034652

Yeah, you have to kill all the armies before they revive.

It doesn't matter for the generals to revive. They can revive only by replacing a generic general, and chaos armies hardly ever respawn once you wipe them. Unless you get another event.
>>
>>183034652
All Chaos stacks must be snuffed out, I think some one said that they don't try to make new hordes, but you do have to eliminate the roach hordes from earlier chaos events to properly meet the victory condition.

So assuming Norsca is the new DLC, how will their campaign work? Will you have an option to fight the WoC or be bound to them? Will there be a Badlands campaign start?

One of the Dark Elves probably. Likely Malekith because he'll be good at everything and fun to play but depending on what Morathi starts with it could be her. Also where they'll start.

looks ok. This is better than your earlier eeextreeeeeme saturation attempts - you have to leave the midrange intact otherwise you blow out the dark and light highlights and it just gets painful to look at.

If you really want to ascend to screenshot autist wizardry you have to learn to do a lot of work in post - photoshop, gimp, paint.net, whatever. Warhammer's lighting engine blows chunky shit so sweetfx/gemfx is just there to mitigate the shitty weather filters that fuck everything up. Like literally the most important part of post-fx is usually just to blueshift everything so armor actually looks like metal. Pretty much everything else is best corrected in photo editing software.

Some additional recommendations:
-check out some of the already configured presets for Attila on the twcenter forums - I've found that a lot of them work great in warhammer if you tinker with them to make them a bit lighter
-if you have a powerful nvidia card, enable DSR and downscale your images to provide aliasing. The in-game aliasing is trash but the image gets very "noisy" due to all the complex models crunched together if you aren't handling aliasing somehow. If you don't anti-alias you'll get a bunch of ugly white dots everywhere.
-I'm too drunk to really notice now but if you're using steam overlay to take screenshots make sure to set it to take uncompressed screenshots AND make sure that when you're modifying images in post you're using the uncompressed png file instead of the compressed jpg it still takes for some reason. Compressed steam screenshots suck ogre chode they are so fucking bad, they add so many artifacts around complex shapes and they just fuck up the color so bad. whoever wrote the compression algorithm at valve should be ritually skinned, salted, and consumed by gaben. Or use an alternate screen cap program - the free version of FRAPS works with gemFX+warhammer and outputs bitmaps which are nice to work with.

>>183039409
--as an addendum to above, make sure to convert the image type to jpg in a photo editing program afterwards. We don't need to see your 4 MB PNGs. Non-steam programs aren't retarded so they actually do a good job at converting the image to lossless with minimal loss in quality. Also, if you're using DSR it caps the image in the upscaled resolution so also make sure to downsize the image to...whatever...1920 is still pretty standard. MS paint is probably OK at this but other photo editors will have better resizing methods

You can see the developers are huge LOTR nerds, from the flora description to the massive collectables of lore to getting Celembrimbor of all people as a main character.

Then it's mostly about ambushing fools until you have enough of a economy to have great armies and start conquering. With the wood elves it takes a lot longer.

I get that, but all the guides I've read told me to capture cities with towns, but it's hard to do that when every fucking city has a million dudes as garrison.

Sure, I got the stack from that big city in Estalia (?) out, but even if I could destroy the entire army (which I can't, because they rout and I've only got 1 pack of wild riders), the garrison will most likely fuck my shit up.

>>183041071

Not to mention dwarves and bretonnians won't trade with me for some reason.
>>
>>183040835
Not as much as you think. It's a power fantasy, sure, but story wise it's pretty clear Celebrimbor has become a massive cunt, and both him and the ring have a corrupting influence upon Talion.

Hint: You're not playing as the hero. The Bright Lord isn't a good guy. And the new Ring of Power is just the One Ring but more beautiful.

No, but if you do it with the rights to the franchise, even if borrowed, it's canon.

Shit or not, doesn't change the fact it's canon.
>>
>>183041479

The movie universe is already incompatible with the books from the get-go mon ami, at best this game is canon with the movies, it cannot be canon with the books.

>Christopher Tolkien doesn't mind it. It's canon

HAW

At best he hasn't seen it, he fucking HATED the Hobbit movies if he saw these games he'd have a god damned heart-attack

>has an ironclad grip on the property

He really, really doesn't.

The movie and video game rights are sold off, he cannot control anything about what they do with them.

Not quite, I imagine Chris doesn't even know of it, but f you want to get into the nitty gritty there's two Middle Earth canons, Tolkien's and Saul Zaentsz's. SoM is part of Saul's.

>>
>>183043128

How exactly do they just "make" a new Ruling Ring?

Isn't the entire idea of why the One Ring is so powerful that Sauron put the best part of his own power into it and the reason the destruction of the ring will ruin him is that he will lose that power forever?

What power does an elf ghost and a mortal man have to put into their ring?

Celebrimbor, the Elven Wraith stuck to the Ranger Talion was the co-maker of the One Ring, and all the Rings in fact. The Greatest Smith of the Second Age. Sauron in the form of the Lord of Gifts tricked him into perfecting it for him, then he betrayed him.

So Celebrimbor is using his knowledge and Talion's strength of spirit to create a new Ring of Power, but loyal to him - the Bright Lord - instead of trying to use a ring which clearly can't be taken away from Sauron

Essentially what Lord of The Rings is about if you oversimplify it as much as you have everything else?

Plus if anything the Middle Earth franchise doesn't use the CHOSEN ONE. Talion was just a random fucko who got his throat slashed in a ritual to summon the Wraith of the Ring Maker. Celebrimbor himself isn't even the CHOSEN ONE even in the Tolkien mythos, he's just a really really good Eldar (ancient Elven) smith

>>183044509
Any Elf who is corrupted by darkness can't pass on to the Hither Shore and is branded to walk beyond worlds until he finds peace. Celebrimbor fits it to a T. He's not specifically said to be a Wraith, but his death fits to how a Wraith is made, and Tolkien rarely says something directly in his mythology.


>Talion's Strength of Spirit

Nah that one is bullshit. Talon is pretty much just a flesh puppet who gets uppity sometimes and is a really good fighter. The Ring making capabilities are Celebrimbor's alone.
His greatest strength is probably the ability to anchor in an Eldar Wraith, which is a great feat only possible to those with great sorrow. So yeah, Talion's special skill besides fighting good is suffering a whole bunch.
>Sauron
>Greatest Spirit of his order
Not really mate. Sauron's biggest strength over all his opponents is his ability to corrupt others. He's not that strong outside of that. Most of the sons of Númeron, Second Age Elves and other figures are as strong as Sauron powerwise.

Sauron is feared because of his Ring. It's a constant theme that the power of Sauron's corruption vastly overshadows his own. And the Ring was made by Celebrimbor, so it stands to reason a Celebrimbor who is able to be anchored to a corporeal form by Talion can recreate his deeds but this time bind the Ring's essence to himself and Talion rather than a demon wannabe edgelord.

>Any Elf who is corrupted by darkness

The Silimarillion mentions nothing about Celebrimbor being "currupted". He was seduced by Sauron in fair guise of Annatar, the Lord of Gifts and by the love of his own craft, but he was never evil or even under Sauron's sway, he resisted Sauron as soon as he knew that it was him which is why Sauron killed him when he invaded Eregion

>Not really mate

Sauron was absolutely the most powerful Maiar spirit.

>And the Ring was made by Celebrimbor

No.

No it wasn't at all.

Sauron made the ring on his own in secret from the Elves in the hope to dominate them.

>but this time bind the Ring's essence to himself

The Ring's essence WAS Sauron's essence, the ring is powerful because Sauron put part of himself into it.
>>
>>183045706
Celebrimbor was seduced by Sauron, exactly. That alone counts as corruption. Deceit and pride in the face of Darkness is enough.

>No it wasn't at all

It was. Sauron bind his will in secret from the Elves, the Men and the Dwarves in hopes of dominating them all, but the rings themselves were made by Celebrimbor.

>The Ring's essence WAS Sauron's essence.

Exactly. The new Ring of Power being made by Celebrimbor in Shadow of War doesn't have Sauron's essence, but Celebrimbor's and Talion's combined essence. It obeys them alone.
>>
>>183045980
>>183045706
Oh and I didn't realized you meant Maiar spirit, my bad on that one.
>>
>>183045980

>Deceit and pride in the face of Darkness is enough.

It wasn't in the face of darkness.

Sauron disguised himself as Annatar and claimed that he was sent by the Valar, the Elves of Eregion never knew who he really was until he put on the One Ring and revealed himself. Not only did they not actually do anything bad for him, they thought they were accepting help from the Valar.

They didn't even assist him in creating the One Ring, the only negative consequence of their actions was the creation of the Nine great rings that eventually corrupted some kings of Men, but they were never intended for that purpose, Sauron stole them when he sacked Eregion.

The entire purpose of Sauron helping the Elves create the Rings of Power was to make instruments that he could use to bind them to his will, they were entirely the victims.

>It was

No, no it wasn't.

Celebrimbor made the Greater Rings and the Lesser in his forges in Eregion, but the One was made by Sauron alone in Mount Doom, you're meming shit out of your asshole.
>>
>>183045980
Metaphorically what does it mean
>>
>>183046261
>>183045980

Quoting directly from the Silmarillion:

>Now the Elves made many rings; but secretly Sauron made One Ring to rule all the others, and their power was bound up with it, to be subject wholly to it and to last only so long as it too should last. And much of the strength and will of Sauron passed into that One Ring; for the power of the Elven-rings was very great, and that which should govern them must be a thing of surpassing potency; and Sauron forged it in the Mountain of Fire in the Land of Shadow

Sauron himself made the Ring of Power in secret.
