because the japs have always been incredibly primitive and barbaric compared to most other cultures, they were still fighting with sharp sticks and on dingy boats when Moortuguese got there, and a long as time later when the burgers got there again they were STILL fighting with sharp sticks and ancient matchlocks that they got from the portuguese

If youre in total war mode 20k a turn is fine, build up food/sanitation first then focus on income while protecting your borders, try to keep 1 border safe with diplomacy, I allied with the huns for example, had 2 big armies protect the balkans, 1 big army in edessa incase the sassies wanted to make trouble and I was smoking out the Arabs with 1 elite army.
I still made 20k a turn which I used to build up, make sure you build up safe zones first, like egypt or the greek islands.

Japanese are just obsessed with the reactionary and what works.

Their Katanas are a millenium old design while europe kept developing their swords

Their monarchy is from 600 something BC

Even after import of western ideas their country has been deadlocked in the exact same western style conservatism and conduct since WW2, only the constitution is keeping their monkey business under control.

They even still have the fanatic love of suicide going.

I think their most impressive advance was that they started hanging themselves instead of decapitating each others.

well I once in a legendary campaign lost both Flavius and Stilicho in battle on the same turn, a woman with very little influence became a regent, which made a governor and a general rebel, loosing a battle against the rebels gave further -2 loyalty hit (-1 for civil war -1 for losing to rebels) and one more general and one governor rebelled and took most of northern Gaul and Africa with them

so yeah, never make your ruler a general, give him a cozy governance job

Bro it really is pretty easy
Exactly do what i tell you to
EXACTLY what i tell you or it fucks up

You first have to contact the steam support
Once that is achieved you wait for a reply
Usually it takes 1-2 days max
Really depends on what you tell them what your issue is, threat them with chargeback
Steam will usually get cold feet at that point
Economy-driven thats what they are
Long story short, steam will contact their support and demand a key for you, there is no other way since you only borrow games from steam
Fucking annoying I had to do the same.

Now read the first letter of every sentence.

I think I read something that in the medieval if you wanted to employ an untrained peasant crossbowmen you had to pay 80 pennies for his equipment and the soldier would earn 2 pennies a month.
So go figure how much the average peasant could afford for himself.

>>135587983
how would you live off of 2 coins per month? does it divide into smaller pieces? i can't possibly imagine you spend one coin at the start of the month on enough food to feed yourself for 15 days and then the other coin later.

Found some info, a penny of that time is appareantly 1.5 grams of silver

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penny_(English_coin)

Coincidentally, this penny was introduced by our dear friend Offa, which makes this very relevant to Charlemagne campaign.

It says that Canute paid his army 20 million pennies, which leads me to think each soldier earned significantly more than 2 pennies per month.

In the american civil war the families of the southern states would give their sons a goodluck penny to wear around their neck.

For good luck and incase they got lost for food and water.
Back then the people were that poor.
In the US slaves would get bought and sold for 3-5 bucks, if you take that into consideration 2 pennies in the medieval doesnt seem that far off.
>>
>>135588414
I went and did some research, civil war prviated on the confederate side made 11$ per month, this subdivides into 100 pennies per dollar. So a confederate private would earn 1100 pennies per month.

Depends, a cavalrist or Swordsman will get more than a levied crossbowmen, and I think in the medieval they actually got poorer again.
But yea the coins were usually made of gold/silver.
I think at that point it was worth it to actually fake metal coins, if coins were made out of metal, if you found gold you wouldnt bring it to the smith telling him to make you coins out of it obviously, with metal you could.

CA can go fuck themselves im so tired of this bullshit.
I have an empire 4 times as big and I cant even afford half of my armies.
I have to find an asteroid made entirely of gold and make it crash directly into my capital to afford a single levy unit because even before it hits the ground my corrupt officials have already picked it apart.
>>
>>135592619
I remember back in the good old days when there was no cap on corruption in Attila. You could have something like 95% in WRE provinces which made many of your provinces worthless.

Yea, if you have the court building, and at the third rank its 15% and 15% in close provinces, I dont even have the tech for the second and the court building makes it unable to upgrade the markets etc.
I have no choice tho I guess, I wonder if I have 3 provinces close to each other with the anti corruption building if it will stack?

It depends on the era but almost across the board - yes. Very much so. There's debate and uncertainty as to the prevalence of armor but middle road fallacy aside it was probably in between the polarities of "Almost nobody but the richest had it" and "almost everybody but the poorest had it". Less wealthy and developed societies on a tribal line, like the migration era Germans, would possess far less mail than say their descendants will in 1000 AD.

From Ian Heath's Armies of Feudal Europe:
-start of 12th century mercenary knights were paid daily 6d (Denarii? Penny?), which rose to 1 shilling in 1173, 3-4s by Edward I and the 13th century.
-At the same time Sergeants and infantry only got 2d to 6d a day in 1196 (2-3d for infantry, 4d-6d for mounted sergeants), mounted crossbowmen got 7.5d or 1s 3d depending on if they had one or two horses.

If https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_livre and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_denier are correct then 1 livre = 20 sous or shilling, 1 sous/shilling being 12 pence (derniers/denarii). "Henry I had Count Robert of Flanders provide 1,000 knights in England or Normandy in exchange for 500 livre.

-1303 France a 'well armed warrior of gentle birth mounted on a horse (value of 50 livres), with coat of mail and coat of arms (barded armor) expected from each 500 livres of revenue (I.E. if you had 500 livres you needed to provide/pay for a warrior of that quality)
-1284 Azzize (edict/regulation by the crown) stated that sergeants of the abbey of Saint Maur de Fosses: Those with 60 livres or more had hauberk, helmet, sword and knife. Those with less than 30 livres had gambeson, sword and knife. Those with 10 livres or more had helmet, sword and knife. Those with less had bow, arrow and knife. All probably had shields/polearms/spears.

>they nerfed minor religions
why? it was a meme anyway

>>135592619
did they not introduce the corruption limit to AoC? they limited it to 60% in the grand campaign, also there is a building that lowers corruption in the province and all the adjacent ones, just build that, also use agents
>>
>>135593515
Remember you can convert the main chain building after you've built the corruption thing to upgrade markets and keep the benefits.

>>135593595

>>135593546

Henry II of England's Assize of Arms in 1181 divided freemen military service into
-Those with a knight's fief or 16 marks of chattel or rents (to be equipped like a knight)
-Those with 10 marks of chattel or rent (hauberk, helmet, spear and presumably sidearms)
-Burghesses and freemen with less than 10 were to have quilted gambesons, iron helmet and spear.

Henry I apparently cited similar: £100 Angevin or £25 Sterling being a knight, 20-40 Angevin (5-10 sterling) being the middle class.

To contextualize it is more helpful to have a sense of more mundane items or property. From Osprey, the mid 8th century Laws of the Ripuarian Franks, states:

-Helmet, hauberk, sword, scabbard, leg armor, lance, shield and horse for a horseman's full equipment = 44 solidi.
A peasant's cow was worth 3 solidi. So you would need to sell 14 cows worth of property to afford all that. If it was just horse, shield, spear, then it might be as little as 14 solidi (12 of which is the horse).

But that is implying you are a self-made man funding it entirely by yourself. If you were a hanger-on, a follower, a companion to a notable then he would often pay for your equipment. Or shit you looted.

Honestly Vampire Counts aren't looking very playable at the minute though perhaps when they release a roster it'll look more hopeful. That and if they actually show off all the fucking spells.

>After a very busy couple of years making content for ROME II and ATTILA, and having most recently released Age of Charlemagne and the Slavic Nations, the New Content team has moved on to support WARHAMMER DLC and Free content. As we announced when we first revealed the game, Total War: WARHAMMER will be supported by a programme of free and paid for content alongside the three games that will make up this epic trilogy. The first of these will be the Chaos Warriors, who will arrive day one with the game and be free for anyone pre-ordering through select retailers. Otherwise the first major DLC expansion is taking up the majority of this team's time at the moment.

They seem to be using artefacts rather than statues seeing as there's arealdy high detail GW models of the characters anyway.

Anyone got any info on why the nips still hold bows a quarter or so length from the base?

They don't need an extra month to finish the game, they're pushing the release date back to allow reviewers time to play the game and put out their thoughts.

They're basically trying to prevent another Rome 2 disaster - sure it had a lot of sales but it was a PR clusterfuck for CA, and one I'm sure they don't want to repeat. Giving reviewers a month to play it and present their thoughts gives us regular players a chance to read those thoughts and make an informed decision.

Their "morale" is different from everyone else. Once they hit the breakpoint they don't run away but instead crumble and die. I don't see why this is such a big deal to you?

The whole thing is pretty bizarre given they claimed in november they'd given themselves a lot of time to polish the game already and picked April as a very conservative release date.

Literal perfect casting, I tell you what.
>>
>>135602207
I guess most were betting on a historical setting though knowing CA have had the GW IP for years they were pretty naive. I think some people see total war going down the fantasy route as a death knell for historical titles. Its pretty unlikely though it would have to far exceed the popularity of the historical series to warrant that.

Maps all look pretty good so far to me. If they're not realistic geography that's because it's a fantasy game

All factions are not the same, they have more diversity than any previous total war game. Leadership is different than morale for VC faction

Maybe there's lots of DLC, we don't know yet because it's not even out yet

Bad combat system - citation needed. There's plenty of infantry that can survive cavalry charges.

We haven't seen sieges yet.

Magic is not broken

Regarding optimisation, 64bit, DX12 better than any TW game so far

They have accents because the company is British. Also it makes them sound regal.

You fucking retard it's called leadership and they also have it in tabletop, it's not morale, it's a mechanic that is there in case the caster dies, they have to roll leadership every turn to continue fighting

They tend to at least give people that are obviously inspired by [country] the accent to go with it, though - e.g. Asian Tau and gruff American Catachans.

>>135604178
High Gothic is faux-Latin, but Low Gothic (what most people speak) could be anything from even more bastardised Latin to Space English.

The Imperium speaks Gothic....
The producers of the games are just usually british and it has been a pain, I dont know why the brits cant hire neutral voice-actors.

>>
>>135604697

>Donì't talk about shit you know nothing about.
>>
>>135604697
And guess what, the game is strongly influenced by the tabletop (like moral being replaced by leadership)
>>
The whole british sounds regal was started by the Spartacus movie in 1954, in it the Patricians spoke in an english accent and the plebs spoke in an american accent

It was made so the audience would perceive the patricians as snobs and come to dislike them
>>
>>135604716

Yes, but try and remember that the United Kingdom is one of the few surviving Constitutional Monarchies on the planet with the most well known Royal Family.

In a fantasy setting, it would sound odd to have a king with an American accent.
>>
>>135604806
They've even gone so far as to say that if a unit doesn't have an ability to 'form pike wall' or 'wedge formation' in the tabletop the unit in TW;WH won't be able to do it either. That's the level of 'based upon' we're talking here.

Wow you are fucking delusional if you think you can hold an argument on this

>Good Europe Map, if you don't like history you should be on /tg/, not here.
I like history which is why I know how shitty the map is in Attila. Rivers are incredibly important yet not represented at all, mountain ranges are ignored and don't cause attrition, the cities at least in Britain aren't placed even close to their actual locations and have outdated names by that period.

>Romans cannot become nomadic, Huns cannot into civilization
Chaos can't into civilization, Empire can't become nomadic. The units in Attila are sword infantry, axe infantry, spear infantry, melee cav, shock cav, archer cav and infantry and thats it. Warhammer has halberd infantry, duel wielding infantry, monstrous cav, tanks Attila is just no comparison in unit diversity.

>Nope at least you could choose direction of attack
On a tiny map with 3/4 directions where they could blockade a route and which took about 5 minutes because most the walls didn't even work and the only defense are arrow towers. Warhammer will have a massivce stone wall to scale or penetrate, cannon and bomb towers and different routes once inside to teh capture pount that are expansive areas.

>Abilities didn't kill units momentarily

The VC guy is Kemmler whos a powerful human necromancer who has a bodyguard called Krell whos an undead chaos warrior.

Which mean they all lean heavily towards the 'English' spectrum of accents, because 'unaccented' English sounds like somebody from the middle of Southern England. Not all British accents are 'cor blimey m8 swer on me mum'.

>>135613184
they raised skeletons instead of zombies in during that final battle.
>>
>>135613184
They did. Twice

Skeletons is overcasted version of the spell, so you still get 2 goes at it per battle just with a chance of failing
>>
>>135612987
So we've got both a Vampire Counts campaign walkthrough and a Gelt quest battle coming up soon.

neat.

>>135613184
They did.

You raise zombies, if you click twice you overcharge but raise skeletons

It can miscast though

>>135613306
Chaos when?!
>>
>>135613304
>>135613290
Cheers, having overcasted versions of all the spells basically doubles the number available dunnit?

I wonder what the overcasted bad moon looks like.
>>
>>135613304
Overcasting doesn't present a chance of failure, just a chance of dealing a bunch of damage to your caster and getting the spell off automatically.

So in that context it's a big risk, since if Mannfred miscasts and dies his whole army likely goes with him.

>>135613674
They mentioned at the start of one of the playthroughs that all of the units in Mannfred's army are early-game fairly low-tier stuff, hence why we don't see any terrorgheists, varghulfs, crypt horrors, etc.

So blood knights may very well be in the game, we just haven't seen them yet.

Assuming they're in they're going to be super late game with how strong they are and don't have the visual impact for marketing materials a zombie dragon or varghulf has so it's no wonder we haven't seen them yet. I can't imagine them cutting them though.

>>135614395

Why the fuck didn't they show this instead of the shit they showed in the stream.

CA are fucking useless at stream.

If they were streaming Shogun 2 and promoting it right now they would have 6 units of Ashigaru fighting 5 units of ashigaru, except one side would have an extra bow/spear and they would make out this was a huge deal.

The stream would also be incredibly low quality.

Yes in that peoples from the Spanish and French Atlantic coasts travelled to and from cornwall and Ireland but that idea is usually associated with a much later period in whichs its bollocks. If it happened it occured around 1300-1100 BC or possibly earlier. Irish and Wlesh would have settled in Spain and France as well it wasn't one-way.

Politics are by nature polarized and most people will always be unsatisfied by their politicians and their decisions. The only exceptions are populist, authoritarian regimes, but those are always a result of a shitty situation that leads to some power hungry demagogues to rise to prominence and purge dissidents, and even then the people's satisfaction with their rules is almost always masked by fear and propaganda.

I have no love for any political party or figure in the USA right now, but if you can't see how blatantly and absurdly populist Trump is you have major issues. Just because he's your anti-SJW crusader doesn't mean he's not an obnoxious fuckwad rallying people behind absurd and meaningless buzzwords. Seriously, people love to talk shit about the way politicians talk, how they're always bullshitting with doublespeak and shit, but can we at least agree that political figures should have some tact? Trump's supposed outspokenness is not a virtue, especially when it's such a blatant marketing strategy. Trump is a meme candidate if there ever was one, and supporting him just because he's not afraid to call people fat and ugly doesn't make him fucking president material.

Diary of the Frankish King AD417

The marriage with the Saxons goes well, with the Gods blessing my daughter will be with child soon. However, I am troubled.

This morning the scouts reported a tribesman from the East, ragged and starving. They brought the raving man before me, we gave him a tankard of mead and a leg of lamb for his troubles. Once he'd found his courage, he spoke of terrible demons on horseback, laying waste to whatever was in their path. His village had been sacked, dead to the last, before being burned to ash. He called this enemy...The Huns.

Some years ago I was granted a vision in my sleep. Of a child, born in a far off land. Although I did not know what it meant, I felt it was a warning. Could this be what the Gods had tried to warn me of? Could, in our hubris of overthrowing the Romans, we have unleashed a far greater evil?

What the fuck do you think Obama had that made him president material, or George Bush or even Ronald fucking Reagan? Trump has been in political circles for years and works in Americas biggest financial CBC. I'm not even American however the double standards people have about Trump is fucking ridiculous and its why no one has definitively been able to shut down Trumps arguments or even tackle the incoherence of his policies. ALL politics is driven by populist movements preying on the vulnerabilities and not the strengths of the populace just look at Brexit.

Diary of the Anne Frankish King AD418

Hiding in the attic with the Saxons goes well, with the Gods blessing my daughter will stop being such a massive cunt soon. However, I am even more troubled.

This morning the scouts reported Attila himself was looking for our hiding spot. He comes every day, pounding his massive Hun cock against the walls of the castle below. There isn't enough lamb or mead in the world to satisfy his lust. But today was different. Instead of mercilessly fucking the wall, he pleaded to be allowed safe passage to our attic. His servers had been sacked, empty of matches, before being burned to ash. He called this enemy...Warhammer.

Some years ago I was granted another vision in my sleep. Of a faggot, born in a far off land. Although I did not know what it meant, I felt it was a warning. Could this be what the Gods had tried to warn me of? Could, in our hubris of historicalfagging, we have unleashed a far greater evil?

I can see where he's coming from and the frustration but don't exactly agree with him. Attila is an apocalyptic game, the UI shows it, the aesthetic of the game shows it, the music sounds it. That turns a lot of people off and is a MUCH different feel from any other total war. In Attila you don't grow and carve out an empire, you fight for the scraps of dying ones while trying to secure some sort of future and stability for your faction and people. All the others are sort of grand, romanticized and "sanitized" depictions of war and give a feeling of grandeur and just a more positive vibe. Attila wears on you, constant war, worrying about plague, food, economy, safety, rebellion, climate change. You might even say Attila is not about the birth of empires, its about the death of them and what comes after, even more so the empires that YOU carved out. Having a player go from their grandstanding crushing power and dominance as the Romans in R2 and show them the reality of what happens to such a behemoth is very disheartening and even off-putting. Again, Attila isn't about making empires, its about what happens to that empire you created after you quit.

Its also absurd to compare the two though I'd say Medieval II felt better at the time despite the problems than Attila does now. Its a good comparison in terms of Med II being the most basic standard of campaign we should expect and then the additions of later games can be judged good or bad based off that.
>>
>>135630142
It's my favourite due to the setting but to say it's a perfect example of the TW series is deluded.

I wonder what people like this clown would say if R1 was the previous game and M2 had just recently launched in todays gaming climate.

With its broken pikes, broken 2handed units, broken guns, broken unit responsiveness, broken meaningless diplomacy and extremely simple settlement management where you build things via checklist of "do I have this yet y/n? if n add to queue". Amongst other things.

They'd be boycotting CA for making a barely functional crapped out cash grab is what they'd be doing.

>>135630335

No all that's changed is that M2 was your first TW and you couldn't see the flaws, you got used to the series and came to expect more from each entry.

Anyone who goes back can see how so many mechanics were plain broken or how mind blowingly easy the game was.

Yes, we get a month of reviewers telling us if it's worth it and you'll get 2 hours to play it before you can't refund it. And if it isn't then you refund it, if it was worth you still got the pre order bonus.

pre order dlc is still cancer though

>>135630809
only if you got it on GMG because there's no reason to pass up 20% off
>>
>>135630335
M2 is so god damn shallow compared to anything recent though. Diplomacy is shit, building settlements is the exact same for every settlement(city or castle being having their own order). Buildings had no complexity to them. Family tree was irrelevant outside of providing op units. Rebel factions was incredibly shallow. Unit balance was absolute shit. Bugs out the ass, even to this day.

>>135631005
So why are you enabling practices you believe to be cancerous with your wallet?

Because you're cheating yourself out of Chaos if you don't and it's idiotic to think voting with your wallet is worth a damn. These practices are in place because they have proven time and time again that they are successful. All "voting with my wallet" would do is make me wait longer to play it, as I couldn't preload and force me to fork over some more money for Chaos. No thanks.
>>
>>135631156
Holy shit what

>>135630809

Preordering is only the correct thing to do if you do it they day before launch and wait a few days to see if the game is actually good before installing it and refunding it if it isn't.

Steam refunds are a great thing, you can get all the preorder benefits while still never falling pray to hype overload.

>>135631043
>>135630830
hence why I said 'basic standard of campaign'. You couldn't expect Medieval II to have the same features as Attila at the time and it was already a major improvement. My first TW game was Barbarian Invasion. not saying Attila is worse just that Med II is fine for a comparison if you are talking about the features in Attila compared to when they didn't exist.

GW may do what they want, but in Total Warhammer all armies squatted or otherwise will continue to exist and flourish.

I'm gutted we didn't see blood knights in the VC preview, they're my favourite unit, pretty much the toughest non-hero/monster unit in the game.

It'd be cool if the DLC adds additional legendary lords. I'd like to see a Blood Dragon obsessed with honour to counter balance Mannfred's 'Do anything to win' mentality, maybe Lahmian for more subtle, political gameplay.

I wonder if you can actually ally with the Empire as Vampire Counts. I want to create an undead buffer state between the Empire and the Chaos wastes, to use hordes of zombies to shield humans from Chaos.

Medieval 2 was the most broken piece of shit and people never remember it. I'd even argue Empire was less of a mess than that game. I will agree that I loved it though because the setting was cool but it was still broken as hell with countless exploits for the taking. It was the most "gamey" of the games.

I guess thats why legend likes it because it's easy to abuse in autistic ways. It breaks immersion as fuck though.

That's probably the whole reason he's complaining, he got his channel by speedrunning the campaign and now he can't do it anymore, kids think he's hot shit.

All 16 Major races:

>The Empire, Dwarfs, Bretonnia, Lizardmen, High Elves, Wood Elves ,Dark Elves, Warriors of Chaos, Daemons of Chaos, Beastmen Orcs & Goblins, Skaven, Vampire Counts, Tomb Kings, Ogre Kingdoms and Chaos Dwarves

All of them like >>135639050 said.

Personally I'm guessing Lizardmen and Skaven will be in the same pack, they're going to be geographically themed and there really aren't many factions with a noticable presence in Lustria.

Mercs.
Speaking of, we'd better see some Dogs of War dlc. I need pikes to pike and shot.

Oh yeah, the voice is different. But they're dark haired guys with the same beard pattern.

This guy is fucking retarded, anyway. Holy shit, he keeps fucking charging his cavalry at them alone, what the fuck is wrong with this guy? He's just leaving his infantry in place and "harassing them" (read: suicidally charging) with his remaining cav, and talking like its going to give him some sort of tactical advantage later.

With 4 Races a game on release, by the end of the trilogy you only need to add four more as DLC to have the big 16 added. They have plenty of opportunity to create DLC between the main races. While most of that effort will go to additional LL or unit DLC, I'm sure they'll make time for a minor states faction pack.

Might be DLC if we're lucky. I'd like to play as Kislev.
>>
>>135639265
Kislev is pretty popular I think. They will probably get DLC and Tilea and Estalia are on the map so maybe them as well.
>>
>>135639124
You realize you can all play them at the head of an army in the actual Warhammer game right?

He really gives of the vibe that he uses only hammer and anvil and general sniping. The kind of guys that would run off kicking and screaming if he tried fighting a real person MP.

>With 4 Races a game on release
With this first one we've got five on release, a sixth as FreeLC (Bretonnia) and a seventh as DLC (Wood Elves). They've got yards and yards of space for making the minor, non-tabletop factions as DLC.

But Warhammer did survive, the same way as Warcraft. It sold it's soul, destroyed a great established franchise, force shitty pandering and became a watered down husk of it's old self.

The only difference is that Warcraft tries to maintain the same brand, while Warhammer became AoS.

Why is that strange. Rap is an essential component of hip hop, and rap in it's truest form (rhythm assisted poetry) is something that's found pretty much in every culture. It's the reason why hip-hop exploded globally.

You know, Warhammer is gonna be the first Total War where I actually want to play a campaign with every faction on offer. Anyone else in the same boat?
