You can also farm rebels for a bit before you do the latter if you want stronger lords / armies.

>>183940109
desu I completed the chaos campaign for the most part with only a single stack and just used another one to mop up minor settlements.

Got my shit kicked in slightly when I tried to take out fully confederated wood elves after destroying the whole of humanity though.

I wouldn't venture that far, you'll have to trespass a lot to get there as well.

If you're worried about killing Bretonnians know that wood elves fairly regularly go on wild hunts and absolutely murder a bunch of bretonnians.

Taking coastal settlements is a good idea as well as welves can get insane income from ports.

>>183943712
Thats true for all TW games

Its one of the biggest flaws in the series, every fight is a 20v20.

>>183944874
man I was literally just thinking this exact same thing

I blame the godawful army system they introduced in rome 2

>>183944874
Didnt used to be like that. In medieval you would rarely reach 20/20, but fight many more battles with 8 v 12 or 4 v 7 etc etc.

>>183944874
Part of the reason I always love manually fighting the first battle in campaigns, because it's not a boring 20v20 battle with late game elite units

>>183944582
>wanting women in your armies
What are you, gay?

>>183945017
I blame CA being pussies not updating their formula and making it so simplistic.

You literally build a 20 stack, then cycle out a unit type for a new one as you unlock it. There is zero cost/benefit analysis or thought required by the player. The campaign is designed so it literally plays itself for you. You start with swords and replace them with GS, spears to halberds, crossbows to guns, ect. Only in very late game do you get to elite troops with high enough costs to actually have to force you to think about taking another elite or taking 2+ normal units.

I honestly think we should start with all units unlocked (or should unlock them all very quickly), forcing the player to think about the benefit of taking an elite over a group of generic troops depending on what and who you are fighting. Then give AI empires a modifier for a tendency towards elite armies or mass swarms which you can see in the diplomacy screen so the player actually has to think for once about who they are fighting.

>>183945314
They dont even let us mod it at all so we cant fix it

Warhammer would literally be better if armies were limited to 10 units on the campaign, and the AI didnt blob every single army they had. Imagine actually having multiple fronts, defensively and offensively where you maneuvered certain types of armies to engage certain types of enemy armies for your advantage (an army dedicated for anti large, or anti infantry, ect)

>>183945572
the campaign has to play itself because half the fun rests on having a decent AI opponent.

TW games are largely about making your own fun, or playing on a high enough difficulty that your constantly at war and have to struggle a bit to manage your campaign.

>>183946053

>>183946000
>Imagine actually having multiple fronts, defensively and offensively where you maneuvered certain types of armies to engage certain types of enemy armies for your advantage (an army dedicated for anti large, or anti infantry, ect)
but that is what I have?

You realise if you want difficult wars on multiple fronts you can just declare war on factions to open them up & tailor your army to fight said faction?

>>183946231

I understand the Master of Strategy mod got a FOTS release, you should try that.

>>183946249
No, you dont. Because you cant sustain 4+ armies in Warhammer without it being extremely late game. It is also entirely nonviable and stupid to do since piecemeal war is how the game is designed.

>>183946231
The one that adds shotguns

>>183945572
I would like to see them move towards a supply point system for units as a soft army limit cap rather than a hard 20 unit limit, but I can see why they stick with 20 units since it's easier to balance and lets them account for how well the game is going to run in a given scenario, since total war games have always been demanding to run once more than two armies get on the field

>>183946437
you easily can, people are complaining that their armies are too elite and that you can't have too many armies...

and its making me seriously question the logic of that complaint.

splitting armies and using more chaff to have a wider frontage is okay.

total war is a sandbox, so if you play it the same way every time of course you'll be disappointed. you have to force yourself out of your comfort zone. nothing CA can do will make you do that.

>>183946496

Thats CA faults, not the players. Xcom is hard even when you play well, so are many many other games, thats a system thats designed well.

TW is never hard ever if you play well, thats a serious fucking flaw.

Yes I agree that if you go out and limit yourself you can scrape together a better game. Limiting you units, generals, downloading harder mods, declaring war on everyone, ripping out your eyes and cutting off your fingers to make the campaign harder is better, but that doesn't change the fact CA is terrible at making good campaigns.

>>183946437
>No, you dont. Because you cant sustain 4+ armies in Warhammer without it being extremely late game.
Yes you fucking can.

You're basically complaining
>games too easy, i just crush the enemy AI with my elite army!

Whereas in my campaigns I don't spam elite units, have multiple stacks early on because of this, have multiple wars going on and actually fight challenging battles nearly every turn because I'm not just spamming elites to win.

>It is also entirely nonviable and stupid to do since piecemeal war is how the game is designed.

Alberic is a great idea considering warhammer 2.

They gave him naval bonuses so as to let him more easily be the bretonnian lord you can take if you want to go to the new world.

Well he his one of the few, if not the only Duke who his not a Grail Knight, and they wanted a melee lord who wasn't on. But at least the name are still here. I got a awesome campaign where Adalhard (Duke of Lyonesse) got higher level than Louen by cleansing Brettonia and the south realm of beastman, invading norscan, and some other random armies, winning the title "The Legend" ( making him unbreakable) before fighting during the final battle against Archaon.

You claimed TW is about making your own fun, which W1 is since the campaign is shit. W2 is about CA making the fun for us since its objective based and more linear.

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 Karond 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!

Is there a substitute for SFO balancing wise. I liked the chaff actually being useful since elites don't kill high density fast enough without chaff support.

I fought with Kislev maybe once, in my first campaign which was as Vampires and never again. Probably a lot of people don't interact with them often too because they are always quickly wiped out and fighting against them as The Empire feels wrong. But as Norsca you will probably face them more often so it would be nice to give them some uniqueness and thus people ask about them.
And since they are incredibly easy to make, more popular than Norsca and CA stated so quickly that new dlc is not them it probably means that they have plans for them.
Kislev is pre-order DLC for W3 mark my words.

A grudge system that only records a grudge when an army is raiding or a settlement sacked, with the subsequent mission being to either destroy the raiding army or to sack a settlement belonging to the faction to remove the grudge and for a reward for recovering an artifact, also if you're fighting Tomb Kings as another faction you'll get significantly more funds from sacking their settlements than you would an equivalent settlement of another faction.

yes, because those are still based in reality, which gives it a kind of grounded-ness, rather than mentally masturbating about made-up things that are about as solid as wisps of smoke.

when you build upon a foundation of nothing, the resulting product has no real substance.

my comp was much more simple
>12 bow cav, divided into 2 groups of 6
>7 yari cav, divided into 2 groups of 3 and 1 to protect the general
The yari cav are really only there to protect against other cavalry, which is why i opted for them over everything else, considering they're the best anti cav unit that isn't a special unit like fire cav or great guard

i mean it doesn't really matter, as long as it works i guess

Any mods for S2 that bump the named hero units up a tier in the chain so that you have to build the top tier dojo to get them? I hate the ai spamming them

>>183959963
Light cav is better at fucking up cavalry, actually. More cost effective

I guess that's the key here, cost effectiveness. Yari is definitely better on a per-unit basis since their unit size and morale alone makes them stronger, but I guess if it's a matter of you fielding two light cav or 1 yari cav then light cav are better.
Also I'm talking about singleplayer not multiplayer, which could be the basis of your argument (i don't play avatar conquest so i have no clue about it)

>>183960884
You only need Organ guns and a single grudge thrower to bait the enemy into charging you.

Anti-large should be handled by Slayers, Hammerers and Ironbreakers.

>>183960628
I don't know what that is. Looks like you're an expert on it though, so tell us all about it.

Why are you so triggered at people having fun?

We get it, TW is historically a series about history. Fine. You don't have to sperg out just because people have fun and you don't.

Want my advice? Kill yourself

>>183961493

>Why are you so triggered
I'm not the guy who just told someone to kill himself. Enjoy projecting your faults onto others, pal.

Most of the other Total war games are inaccurate enough to BE fantasy, Do these niggers think Braveheart is great because of its RICH HISTORICAL setting?
