Soon

Do we know the Lizardmen start positions?

Mazdamundi and Kroq'kar are based out of the same city in the lore so I'm curious which of the two got moved

>>184359919

>lets give into lust again and spawn another slaanesh

Yeah they're certainly going to give in to that made up shit.

>>184359369
Its on the /tg/ storythread right now.

>>184356681
So now that Norsca has confirmed CA can use factions that didn't have an army in 8th, rate the potential other factions based on how likely you think they are to get in and why.

Pretty much guaranteed tier:
>Chaos Dwarfs
Popular, have a full forgeworld army they can supplement with old shit, were already leaked in the outdated but accurate Russian leak, and flesh out the dark lands so it's not just Ogres and Greenskins out there.

Likely Tier:
>Araby
>Kislev
I put them on the same tier for slightly different reasons. Araby is less popular and didn't have the units from the actual tabletop Kislev had, but is in a perfect position to be added as game 2 DLC (in addition to the Warmaster army). Kislev is more popular, had models in the tabletop, AND had that Warmaster army, but they're firmly in the Old World we're now leaving behind. I'm not sure how they'd deal with adding them in, though I'm pretty sure they will in some capacity.

Possible Tier:
>Southern Realms/Dogs of War
>Nagash
Southern Realms CAN be added in TWW2 due to the colonies in Lustria, but they'd have to do a lot of thinking to get them to work. A full Dogs of War army instead has you wonder how an army of mercenaries would even function in a game of conquest. Nagash being added as his own faction would be interesting, but I'm not sure they'd want to just smash Kangs and Counts together. It might require using End Times units to get working, which could piss people off.

>>184360294

Don't know anything yet. If I were to guess I'd say Mazdamundi (who will probably also be the the faction leader) will start in Hexoatl. Maybe they'll do the same thing they did with Teclis and start Kroq'Gar really far from the other Lord, further south or perhaps even in the Southlands on some expedition or somehting.

>>184360631

>implying dark eldar are the same as regular eldar.

Besides dark eldar are more likely to skin you alive than fuck you.

>>184360005
Anon last thread we had 100 posts of people discussing /his/ shit and it was awful, retarded and quickly devolved into "muh race war soon"

>>184360595
Unlikely Tier:
>Amazons
>Cathay
Apologizes to waifufags, I just don't see the Amazons being able to carry their own faction. I'm not super familiar with them though so feel free to tell me what a faggot I am and how they totally could. As for Cathay, hear me out. The Throne of Tamurkhan had a section where the chaos armies attacked a distant watch tower owned by Cathay, right? They could do something like that, using the forces described as defending it as a base for the army, with Cathayan watch posts or expeditionary forces. It's a long shot I know, but it could help flesh out the third game.

Very Unlikely tier:
>Nippon
>Ind
I just don't see them expanding the map that far east when there's no classic factions out there, as cool as it would be.

No tier:
>Pygmies
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Chaos Dwarfs will probably get in. CA has at the very least acknowledged (even if it was literally only "It's not Kislev, sorry!") the interest for a Kislev DLC when they announced that they'd make one more DLC for TWW1. So I'm reasonably sure they'll get one, eventually.

I really hope, and think, that Araby will get something. It'd be really fucking lame if they're just Empire units with a faction leader that has a different voice, like vanilla Kislev. Of course, CA could just not include the area Araby is in on launch and only add them when TK come.

Cathay, Nippon, Ind and the Southern Realms are very unlikely, I think.

Just like you idiots thought Norsca was going to be Tomb Kings or Skaven.

Why are vamps so hard to me?

>income buildings are shit
>buildings are very expensive
>cannot conquer dwarfs because of attrition
>base units seem worse than Empire and Dorf units
>no fucking archers
>cannot have a single specialized military province anymore since global recruitment is gone
>instead I have to rely on RNG "raise dead feature"
>no allies, surrounded by foes

Am I just dumb or is vampire counts generally considered to be harder than the others?

>>184366993
Don't underestimate the importance of a good anvil.

Get a fuckload of archers, unless your enemy brings a lot of cavalry, place them in vanguard mode in the middle of your army and the enemy, have them run back past your own lines as the enemy approaches. Watch them annihilate half the enemy army before they hit you lines.

Place Wild Riders to the side, preferably in a forest. They hit hard but die quick so keep them on archer hunting/flanking duty.

>>184367461
They are considered easy mode.

It's corruption but it causes attrition and negative growth, if enough negative growth is accumulated then it spawns a plague themed rebellions.

Total Warhammer: towers are a big threat so I finally take the time to siege. This is an improvement but what is the point of the attacker's siege towers when all infantry gets ladders?
>1 siege tower is sure to go down in flames before reaching the wall
>whichever unit was inside it automatically loses 50%
or you could just rush in with ladders if you weren't Dawi

>>184365584
The basic marauder unit cards look a little out of place when compared to all the other ones.

>>184368142
Ladders stream your dudes onto the walls slowly where they'll be outnumbered.

Towers drop a fuckhuge blob of your dudes, giving them a better chance

>>184368142
infantry that uses ladder are tired when they get on the walls

>>184367461
Upgrade and max out your province capitols first so you can build vamp crypts and necro libraries, you need only one province for recruitment since with IoN your army is effectively immortal so you only need to recruit normally when you first raise an army and can use battle markers to supplement your armies as needed. If you really want more than one recruitment province then capture Reikland and make it into one, since the caster building there gives no income, also spam deploy banshees and necros at drakenhoff with all their points dumped into their blue line income skill. Go into raiding stance when ever you decide to curbstomp the dorfs or suck their dick so hard they have no choice but to make you their bottom bitch.

>>184367461
Your standard standalone income building doesn't do much, but they do give drakenhof a great income building, a gold mine. Combine that with your super capital bonus of increased income and it's not as bad as it looks from the start.

Vamps have a lot goin for them in battles, you can rely on your worst units to hold the line since they will never route. They have the best heal spell which allows dead units to revive and be healed, raise dead is great for disabling ranged units or blocking cavalry, I've seen winds of death destroy entire dwarven units when placed well. They may not have archers but this means you have more melee units on top of raise dead, this usually means you can match every enemy melee unit and still have more to overwhelm their weaker ranged units.

>>184368736

... my game gets "exe stopped working" when I quit the game. did anyone ever have this problem?

I'm confused here. Do Chaos Dwarfs count as a major race or not? If not, will we still see them?

>>184370064
I had that problem when I used SweetFX

>>184370140
they are one of the 16 "army book" races but for "major", it depends on who you ask but they are not at the level of high elves or empire. put they are definetly above norsca which we are having as a dlc in a few weeks.

>>184369735
Probably just well thought out gibberish, if they have a lore guy from GW with them then they're probably aware of the alphabet and word list for chaos that they released that one time.

>>184370140
They weren't technically a main faction but they had rules and models from forgeworld, which just means they were even more expensive than normal and they had some units which never got a model (namely the K'daai destroyer, a big metal bull fire demon thing)

Imagine the shitfest Radious mod will be by the time the third Warhammer has been released for a year.

>>184370140
They are not really a major race, they had an army book in 1994 and an unofficial list in a Forgeworld book more recently.

HOWEVER, it would be very hard to include the Ogre Kingdoms (who are a major race) without including Chaos Dwarfs - the Chaos Dwarfs live in the Dark Lands directly between the Ogre Kingdoms and the Old World.

They were a proper army back with an GW issued army book and everything back in 5th edition, but got phased out after that because they weren't that popular.

ForgeWorld (GW sister company who do more specialised and niche stuff) gave them a new, if somewhat truncated, army list in their expansion book Tamurkhan: Throne of Chaos for use with 8th edition.

So while they're not as major as any of the 15 mainline armies. They're still more major than, say Dogs of War or Kislev.

The dogs of war army book was more recent than theirs. They come from a time where everything was red and mummies were part of the undead faction.

>>184372007
But what sets them apart from the likes of Kislev and Dogs of War then? As I understand it, they also used to have army books.

>>184372662
They're two villages separated by a bog. The players of the adventure are tasked with resolving a dispute between the two villages over a pig, which is the only farm animal anyone in either village owns.

>>184372987
It would be nice if they all sounded like swarthy Germans, but in a literal sense for the setting, the audience is to assume that the Empire is the "main" faction, and therefore their version of the language is the basic one, ergo sounding like normal English.

Because when anyone talks they're not literally speaking English, it's an implied translation.

>>184373158
Chaos Dwarfs got a new 8th edition legal army list. Which neither Kislev nor DoW got.

Still, everything is out the window now that Norsca is being released.

In campaign I feel like too many of their decent units are locked behind T4/5 buildings.
Especially as the most threatening enemies are the ones with fucktons of armour you just pass straight over the 50 different gobbo units for black orcs.

So I know we can only talk about warhams now but is anyone following that LOTR mod for attilla ? Curious how its doing.

Shiet anons, when we are finished we will have a huge ass map with 20+ playable races.

This is the send-off that Warhammer Fantasy deserves.

Yeah the AI gets buffs even on Normal battle setting if you're on Hard or higher campaign.
I wouldn't bother killing Dwarf Lords anyway, you're better off taking huge blocks of boyz with some squig herds to eat their quarrellers and hit the warriors from behind.
Going for straight casualties and keeping your lord alive is way better than risking his ass to knock them from like 100 leadership to 95.

I've seen a bunch of different ideas for a Dogs of War faction though. Something like a horde and you can take from all their units for a crazy hodgepodge army, and you can travel around and take work from any other faction except Chaos perhaps.

>>184376608

In what? The tabletop?

Theoretically they could do some kind of horde with special mechanics revolving around hiring your armies out to other factions.

Never having enough money to raise more than one army and the one army never being strong enough to beat enemy armies, nevermind the peasant army shit, it took me forever just to get rid of the skullsmasherz (pretty sure that's the one) south of me.

The Free Company miniatures couldn't really have two swords. Most were a sword/axe/club/falchion and an off-hand dagger, but they also got a mix of halberds, two-handed swords, pistols, blunderbusses and the like.

Wew lad, do you hold a grudge because your favorite army got killed off by GW while the Empire and Chaos lived longer or something?

That's really weird. Which Bretonnia were you playing ? I was just playing defensive slowly confederating rest of the bretonnia and after first confederation I was killing Mousillion. I had few hard times but nothing that would stop me.I had 1-2 recruiting cities the rest was for money and corruption fighting. I had no real big problems with money. Smart commending a few cavalry uits while peasants hold can win most battles. Only WE were problematic but they were not so eager to leave forest.

Bretonnia Bretonnia, as Louen, I tried to get good relationships with the rest of Bretonnia straight off the bat and focused on getting rid of skullsmasherz, but by the time I was actually able to do that it seems like I wound up far weaker than everyone else, I can't really think of where I fucked up either, it just seems like I was always either too poor or my population was too small to really get a decent army

Recommended mods for TW:WH on the workshop?

After years of fighting and the blood of thousands of brave Christian soldiers, at long last Islam has been expunged from Europe.

May it never return.

The peasant economy forces you to go with either a small anvil and a large hammer or no anvil at all if you can manage the micro required for it. If you can't make a cav focused army work on the campaign, then you're going to have to try and focus on weaving shacks so you're not greatly affected by the peasant economy, they are how ever less income than farms.

GCCM is worth checking out too, though some maps are better than others. At least get the minor settlements pack.
