Mercia was a Kingdom in the British Isles before the Kingdom of England was formed.

Whats so difficult to understand.

>>124380281

>>124380324
>several kingdoms in England
>Vikings invade, conquer all but one (Wessex)
>over the course of the next century Wessex pushes north and drives out the vikings, taking over the old kingdoms as it goes
Basically the Kingdom of England stems from the West Saxon kings but the first kingdom to be assimilated into it was Mercia

>>124380543
yes but is it part of the kingdom or not?

>>124379953
I don't know why you're calling my ability to pronounce 2-3 syllable words into question

>>124380641
to be honest words in meme languages like welsh and irish are rarely pronounced as people thing they are

>>124380641
Because fuck you, you make a minor claim like that over the internet you better prove it. What are you, some uncivilized barbarous scum? Only the empirical kind of evidence is allowed amongst us trve romans!

>>124380628
Mercia became an earldom in the kingdom of England so it became so, but not while there were still kings of Mercia
>>124380667
yeah, but the guy in the video was trying to pronounce Powys like 'pewus' or something
Also his voice really annoys me, he sounds like he should be at a student protest in Manchester or something

White Huns announcement in five minutes.

>>124380641
Because you first talk shit about other people being unable to pronounce it and then find yourself unable to produce proof you can it yourself.

If I make an offhand comment about how you might have murdered somebody and you start shouting how you didn't do it, hand me three phone numbers to call for alibis and swear to "never make any stupid mistakes like that" ever again if I don't call the cops then I might grow suspicious

I don't think you can pronounce the words you claim are so easy.

>>124377550
How is Darthmod Napoleon?

>>124380836
If I said something about him being unable to pronounce 'chicken' would you demand that I vocaroo myself saying 'chicken'?

>>124380958
I'm starting to doubt you can pronounce any English words, maybe you are even unable to speak at all.
Or is it a heavy accent that reveals your pedestrian upbringing and summons in you feelings of disgrace and infamy?

There is no shame in it, but you should stop criticizing other people if you are unable to live up to your own standards.

They are in Britain, flying someone in internationally would be too expensive.

>>124381958
>>124381851
Am I the only one who thought it would be white people Huns instead of a faction literally named "White Huns"

Maybe this is to teach me a lesson about race

>>124382270

I certainly hope you were the only one who thought that.

Is there a reason CA hasn't made a game that plays like Civ but with TW combat? I mean, that sounds like a good idea doesn't it?

>>124381851
I told you all it would be white huns

>>124381851

Finally the Sassanids will have a threat, this was the best choice for an extra faction because it also helps campaign map balance.

>>124382441
You really should have specified you meant "White Huns" and not Huns that are white people

>>124382521
Everyone knows the faction name White huns though.

Also thats why i used the word "The" before it

>>124382514

Morale: +20 when fighting the Sassanids

Attrition: Immune to desert attrition

Income: +100% from sacking, looting and raiding

Nigga, the "new units" are just copypasted unit from alredy playable factions

And the alan roster is the same shit : copy/pasted units with like 2 shields and 1 armors for the entire unit

Even a mod on the workshop can bring a better roster and new faction.

Why am I expected to know about the "White Huns"?
Until now I had no idea they were a thing, I thought it was just "Huns" and the "white" was a racial prefix

>>124383007
>Nigga, the "new units" are just copypasted unit from alredy playable factions
There's several completely new ones, and you're missing the point that it rebalances the campaign

>And the alan roster is the same shit : copy/pasted units with like 2 shields and 1 armors for the entire unit
Nigga shut the fuck up, you're making things up. The entire Alan roster is new, it's been completely remade and is all unique.

If I said "I saw a white man on the street today" would you put it into Google?

Obviously you wouldn't, because you would think we both understand one another and there is absolutely no reason to look up what I meant by "white man"

Turns out I meant a secret race of white albino people living underground, you clearly should have known about those, huh?

So did the white huns settle historically? Or are CA too lazy to make new buildings slots for a nomadic faction

People play TW or map painters because of the historical context to play pretend, CIV is another thing, you can have Polynesians reaching the space age.

>>124382328
Too much stuff in it, either the civ parts of teh game would be lacking or the total war parts would be. It'd just take way too much time, not to mention you're bringing 2 very different genres with different audiences into it trying to please them both. It's a game made for no one and way too much of a hassle.

>>124384327

But I'm playing on normal

>>124388764
mate, I subjugated the Sassanids in Attila, left them with one poverty region and they can still afford 6 full stacks

>>124388742
Just remember the basic rules of Attila.

Unless you could completely dominate the battle, don't auto-resolve. Auto-resolve means losing more troops than you normally would, and those troops are usually the ones that make the difference in a battle instead of the shitty, basic units you use to hold people in place.

Fear Attila.

Sassanids are easy mode (but might not be when this new faction comes out).

Aksum is best.

>>124389210
>Aksum is best.
WE WUZ DA KINGZ

>>124389096
Again, the AI cheats. They get a bonus to income, public order, sanitation if that's part of the game, as well as being able to convert units into other units.

To stop that last one, the pastebin has a link to a mod. Or you could just use the Rights of Man mod to stop it, as well as get a better realm divide event.

According to the topic it's Kiwi-prices >>>/tg/43988434 but even so it's crazy

I don't buy miniatures, just use them sometimes for references when doing texturing but you can get an entire fucking army of hoplites or whatever for how much maybe 3-6 40k miniatures will cost. I understand the 40k ones can be more detailed but still it's unreal.

Pshhh even more detailed armies is more cheap than Warhammer

If I bribe some Sassanid puppets and make them love me, how high is the chance they'll betray their masters when I go to war with them?

>>124393450

Depends on the faction leader traits

>>124393297
What? Infinity has a higher price per model, it only comes out as cheaper because you need less to start playing.

23 euros and you get 10 gw multi part plastic models
starter packs for inifinity have 6/7 models and cost around 30/40 euros

>>124393234

I'm guessing here since I don't have the firsthand experience but it seems like 40k is the most prevalent/popular. I don't know of any other sci fi/fantasy stuff that matches it in presence and all the historical wargaming stuff seems much more diffused over a lot of different companies since the armies and the lists are generally independent of one another.

If I were Creative Assembly and just wanted shekels I would have approached TW:Arena more like an online version of miniatures wargaming with a dash of MOBA/ASSFAGGOTS - paper-doll your units, sell new textures/gear and all that.

Attila is a reskin. Rome2 was a fucking joke for months.

WH is something TW series never did. Game with factions that are not recolors. And monsters. And flying units. And magic.

You should only have tentative appreciation for a business. They make a product and you give them money, that's the extent of the relationship.

All the patch might change is the balance east, since you're with the Picts you will probably end your campaign before reaching the middle east

I've been wanting to play an Alan campaign from the start, but they were rather disappointing so I haven't.

Magic is broken, so it's shit. Steamtanks and monsters isn't interesting we already saw how they works in Med2 mods.
Rome2 have more dynamic gameplay, unlike WH where during the flank charge knights didn't kill even 10 of enemies, where large unit of infantry attacks big monster by one soldier.

>>124406226
They aren't playable. CA have said time and time again that there will be 4 playable factions at release and one isn't Bretonnia.

>>124406256

>>124406401

>>124406253

Heroes are a big part of the game with skill trees and all. Brets and not-Poland will have completely different heroes and completely different magic.

It won't be as easy as Medieval or Rome recolors.

>>124406313
>I havent played it but im acting like i have
I've played it, tons of people have played it. It plays really uniquely and it's good fun. Magic isn't overpowered. It's much different to every other total war and a standard hammer and anvil wont cut it anymore.

The only thing warhammer might have a problem with me is that they are already doing dlc shit, with every race being copy and paste afterward but i cant see how rats and lizard men will be copy and paste, will chaos dlc be copy and paste though? or did they actually work on it? they said they are doing full blown expansions instead of dlc right? like shogun 2? So maybe every expansion will give us more races? I think they said that the map will be getting bigger as the expansions come out.

>>124406476
Why would there be an FLC in the release of the game? That's just part of the game.

>>124406585

yes to all your questions

We know one faction will be free before the expansions and the DLC will be focused on characters

Wait so all the human races are in but how? why aren't they playable? are they just cpu or copy and paste shit till we get a expansion that adds their real units? every warhammer race has its own models, so how the fuck can you just go and do that? you dont even have to think you have the real models already to base them off of and their lore and what they do. or am i wrong or do we just not fucking know?

I assume it would be like this, like celts in Attila they will be eventually fleshed out.

It's unrealistic to expect every faction to have their unique roster at launch

>>124406709
DLC is focused on everything, not just characters. We're getting the whole shabang.

>>124407494

oh my fucking god they scored

I cant wait to see steam tanks, it just proves one day we will have WW1+2 maybe in one full game with you starting with ww1 tec all the way to the end of ww2. It will be like war thunder but total war. we can even have named character heroes like the desert fox. and the unit variety would be huge. ww1 planes and tanks all the way to ww2.
I can dream.

>>124407494
Well that lasted long.

Because they require a ton of work man, you don't compare it to say rome 2 where you have culture blocks and the only variety is between those blocks (and even then they share all the animations etc.) you compare it to other strategy games like Dawn of war where the faction have a great variety in terms of animations, voice work, particle effects etc., TW has been the exception so far in terms of number of factions when every other strategy games has 2-4 on launch because most faction in total war are the same.

Also the uniqueness extends to the campaign map, like for example the orc mechanics or the visual changes like the corruption from vampires or settlement changes.
