Well, they also have to deal with dorfs and frenchmen and snowniggers every now and then.

But overall I wouldn't call their campaign easy, it's more like 'balanced'. It's a solid starting position, they have solid units, solid diplomacy. It's a reasonable campaign and I would even argue and say it's the best.

>>143681263
Dude seriously, you don't know what you're talking about. The main barrier to the hobby besides its niche appeal has always been the steep price of starting. That is a long known fact to the wargaming community.

Fantasy suffers a great deal more from this because it cost so much more to get started.

I'd even argue that fantasy likely has a greater possible reach because the people who are likely to enjoy this sort of hobby would likely be into pen and paper RPGs etc. and therefore lean more towards fantasy than sci-fi.

40k is easy to get started with, throw down $200 and you can get a whole starting army with multiple, interesting units.

$200 in fantasy will get you maybe a unit of bog-standard infantry in big fuck off rows for you to paint.

You only really need to deal with snowniggers. I ended up in military alliances with the frenchmen and the dorfs. Really you only have to not antagonize them and as soon as Chaos pops up as a common enemy, you are making defensive/military alliance already.

First time I heard about it, good to know. Even 40 eurobucks is a lot for me (sorry for being poor). 40 usd is pushing it usually; for a game that I will mostly play in SP. Recent AAA prices just fuck me, since I'm from a poorer country. It's even worse with the USD=EURO shit.
Nothing I can do really (except praying for that crack), just wanted to vent.

Am I missing something or are Vampire Lords complete shit.

Around turn 50 I have Dwarfs and Humans all trying to war me, the lack of any ranged unit makes fights stupidly annoying against ranged cavalierly, and it seems they have an awful as fuck economy so building up a good army takes forever.

copy pasting my own from the previous thread.

>You have no idea how popular Dawn of War and Caiaphas Cain are, do you?

You have no idea how popular warhammer was before those do you? the popularity didn't come from those at all, it came from the tabletop first. Kids bought 40k, talked to their friends about it, their friends that didn't want to buy minis got into it through other means. Everyone knew someone that played warhammer. The older guys who were in that space marine movie literally talked about how all their grandkids or kids were into it at some point.

>Miniatures wargaming is an extremely niche hobby.

Not warhammer, which was the entire point, it's why GW spent so long focusing on making sure they had stores everywhere that you could just go to and play the game. It's a big part of why it kicked off, removing barriers to entry got people into it.

>Those are barriers for me

Shockingly price and number of minis were both mentioned separately.

>Warhammer Fantasy has... Bloodbowl...

Half of what you listed are specialist games made by GW which have fantasy equivalents in dreadfleet, mordheim, etc. Another bunch are black library novels of which the fantasy ones are far better written.

The only licensed things are dark heresy/rogue trader, fire warrior and dawn of war.

40k is more popular, because it is more popular, or should I say was; because it was more popular, it got more people trying to make money from it, because it had that, it got big budget games thrown at it. Dark Omen and Shadow of the Horned rat are better games than any 40k one, but they weren't big budget PC titles. More popularity leads to more exposure, and that popularity started at the lower price and effort entry points.

GW made it not niche by having stores for you to play at with terrain made for you to use, having beginner friendly nights dedicated pretty much to kids who could only field small armies to start with, etc. Make it easy to start and the kids play.

Their mounted archers are brilliant especially with the wolf rider buff, smash into the enemy with melee, wolf and spider riders swing round and kill their archers, then a few units of wolf archers speed round and sit behind the enemy firing into them as they fight, also the ability to deploy out of deployment zones. Gobbo spears can hold their own and spider riders are great.

>I'd even argue that fantasy likely has a greater possible reach because the people who are likely to enjoy this sort of hobby would likely be into pen and paper RPGs etc. and therefore lean more towards fantasy than sci-fi.

You are a good example of a long term fan who cannot understand why his game isn't more popular.

40k does everything that Warhammer Fantasy does, but adds a science fiction element to it. That is why 40k beat its predecessor.

Warhammer Fantasy offers nothing unique in and of itself in comparison to 40k. In fact, WF is SO limited that it is often regarded as merely taking place on a planet within 40k.

Warhammer Fantasy got ASSIMILATED by 40k. It is no longer considered as independent or a predecessor, but rather a feudal world trapped in statis by a warp storm.

>40k is easy to get started with, throw down $200 and you can get a whole starting army with multiple, interesting units.
>$200 in fantasy will get you maybe a unit of bog-standard infantry in big fuck off rows for you to paint.

And $200 dollars in vidya and books means you do not have to paint anything, do not have to schedule matches or go anywhere, do not have to rely on specialty shops, and in general have far less bullshit to put up with when GW decides to change something.

I certainly respect both Warhammer wargames in equal measure, but the main barrier is certainly not price. Maybe it is something that people in the hobby consider, but those outside of it look at the work that needs to go into it first rather than just "hmm, a bunch of unpainted toys. These look fun to do... something with..."

You're on the inside looking inward, but I'm on the outside looking in, so I consider far more factors than you do. 40k being cheap is a GW meme anyway to justify AoS, which fails for the same reason WF fails.

>>143683161

This mod increases the damage on the Gyrobomber's/Gyrocopter's bombs/grenades by x5.

This is the 10x version.

Please note that it won't work with another mod that modifies the projectiles_explosions_tables and projectiles_tables due to some weird PFM fuckery that won't let me change subtable names.

I also increased the damage a bit on the Gyrobomber's machine gun (+4 normal damage and +8 AP) because it did fuckall.


Is it balanced? I don't know. All I know is that Gyro's are useless and this might make them viable and fun to use.

By the way, if you want to do any changes yourself (it's super easy) just get the PFM http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?730823-PFM-4-0-Warhammer-support and start poking around in the tables.

You're not even being coherent any more. What fantasy media have you even read/played, because it sounds like TWW might actually be your first exposure outside of hearing about it.

40k beat fantasy because it got the kids into it, it's got guns, kids think guns are cool, it's cheaper, so their parents are more likely to buy it for them and they can have more varied toys for the same price and they don't have to assemble as many of them and paint them. It's -all- about getting the kids into it. It's why Warmachine isn't nearly as popular, or any number of other mini games.

Terrorgeists are good at disrupting the enemy backline and fucking up other large monsters, but they're not all that great in melee. Vargeists are the opposite, better in melee but less mobile and not as good vs other monsters. Both are pretty good.

Black Knights are a bit lacklustre. They're not bad, but not great either compared to other elite cav. Graveguards will likely be your backbone (at least they were for me) unless you want to go with the spooky wraiths (they're overrated IMO) of go with endless masses of skellies (some guy in the previous thread said it worked for him, but I don't like it).

Nice meme, I never actually played Fantasy. The price of entry was too high. I play 40k.

>40k does everything that Warhammer Fantasy does, but adds a science fiction element to it.

See that's actually not an upside to a lot of people, there are more fans of sword and sorcery in the related areas of tabletop games than there are sci-fi fans. You preferring a sci-fi setting is a subjective opinion, not an objective improvement.

Fantasy got rekt because it wasn't making Gee Dubs as much money as 40k.

I want to be able to pick Kemmler over Baldfred the Edgehog without horribly gimping myself with a LL that performs worse in combat than a stock vampire lord.

Because to the other game it was just some insignificant little thing.

Both did.

Why is auto-resolve so heavily favoured for the player? Any mods that address this? Going to fight the battle ingame and the odds are reversed against you, makes no sense.

Meh, for a lot of them I can sort of see where they're coming from.

It's just that if I want diplomacy and economic management in my games, Total War is the very last place I'd look. I'd sooner go to one of the Paradox historical games. The thing I want out of Total War is WAR, not spreadsheet simulators.

And then I see posts that say "I only play for the management part and autoresolve all battles so I don't care about how good the battles are or how different the armies are" are just... why the everloving fuck are they playing Total War in the first place? How stupid are these people? It's one thing to enjoy the simple managment parts of TW, but to play the game only for the economy aspect is like becoming a baseball player because you like stadium hotdogs.

I don't mind management stuff and exapnded 4x features, but Warhammer is totally the wrong setting for that.

>>143685548
they are the best, vamps have multiple great cavalry options whilst empire just have the one

But given that you're evidently just parroting shit you read here it really wasn't worth pointing that out to you

>>143684830
I think the healing spell scales in a weird way.

When I use it on skellies it heals quite a lot, but when I use it on cavalry it resurrects like one dude and then goes away.

Total war can be about war if you want it to, Total war, given what it is and not taking it just by its name, should also be able to be about politics if you want it to. Besides, tell me that your goal when you play CK2 isn't to paint the map your color.

Way to miss the point, moron.

Nobody is saying those things shouldn't be part of war. But even at the very best, the economy is but an extremely simplistic aspect of Total War games that only exists to give context to the battles. If you were really interested in playing a straight up economy simulator, you really shouldn't look for it in Total War because Total War games are really, really bad at being economy simulators.

>>143686560
It's a setting about war, of course they're not going to dwell overly long about the ramifications on population, the empire should suffer the same problem but no one talks about that. Because it's not important most of the time.

besides the high elves play the part of the artillery for the "good guys"

Once again, nobody is saying it SHOULDN'T be a part of the game, just that it's a SHIT part of the game and that playing TW games ONLY for the SHIT parts is a BAD IDEA.

Wanting the shit parts to be BETTER is understandable, but it's somethig else entirely than saying "I ONLY play TW for the economy and skip the actual GOOD parts of the game".

Warhammer is worth picking up because it's a great game. On top of that, chaos is really fun to play.

>>143689584
There is literally nothing Chaos does that orcs do better

>Arrtillery

Doom divers SHIT over Hellcannons

>Cavalry
Orc Boars shit all over Chaos

>ranged
lol Chaos have garbage ranged

>monstrous
Arachnarok and Orc Giant > Chaos MCs

>Infantry
Black orcs are cheaper and rape chosen

>Heroes
Grimghor straight up buttblasts Archaon

Any disputes?

>>143689797
Trolls don't count as Large units, do they?

I started as Ungrim yesterday and I sent my slayers after a group of Trolls and they got stomped.

>>143689891
Trolls are monstrous, so they do.

>>143689765
Orcs do have crazy money, your units are pretty cheap and you get a free stack for every one you're paying for.

>>143689723

I love the skellyton animations

>all stomping round the battlefield in unison not giving a fuck

>Orcs do have crazy money

Yeah, but from sacking. Your econ sucks as anything that isn't dwarf or empire.

TOMB KINGS STILL NOT ANNOUNCED SOMEONE POST THE GIF PLEASE

>>143689891
I don't know, but trolls are the classic enemy of slayers.

I like how you actually have to make an effort in defending your skirmishers or artillery

>Place my arty on a hill so it can shell the enemy for whole battle
>The hill is pretty far away from my army
>Guard it with one spearmen unit
>The enemy actually divert a greataxe unit and chaos knights to deal with it.

Had to harasse the shit out of them with my outriders to save the arty. Overall the AI seems better at using their cav. They even sometimes faint.

What should I be building more lords around? Support or pure rape offense?

When you control the entire Badlands and most of the dwarf holds fully upgraded plus all the stacking money from raids and sacks with campaign tier upgraded heroes yes you do. Every small settlements is just money making/growth buildings.

>>143690119
Depends on the faction and lord.

Also, are there certain hero types that SPECIALIZE in assassinations? Because the game doesn't point any out.

Stop playing MP.

The Chaos biggest advantage are the insane buffs it gets from its lords and agents.

>>143690119
I prefer using them as support, but some lords are more obviously meant to be melee monsters than others.

I wonder if there will be any ranged lords.

What?

when will CA fix the fucking reinforcements bug, its been reported several times and they admitted to seeing it, how could they fuck something trivial like that anyway, I dont remember something like that happening in attila
>>143689876
what a load of crap, chaos giant is IDENTICAL to orc giant, and dragon ogre shaggoth is better than both, GW chosen kill black orcs, but are admittedly more expensive, chaos lances are no worse than boar boyz

what the fug anon? besides, you dont play factions because they are stronger, you play them because you like their style, currently chaos is the only horde so if you want to play as one, you dont really have a choice

Does anyone actually build their legendary lords for combat?
I'd rather have +12 melee/defense/damage for all my infantry units rather than my lord. He gets ridiculously powerful anyways once you unlock all the quest items anyways, and he can be only in one place at a time on the battlefield.

Tekumel.
It's really Sci-fi, but it's considered fantasy

Thorgrim? I went the red line, better army -> easier way to solve grudges

With Ungrim, go combat and rape whatever comes he is unbreakable, enjoy

Fags.

Anyway, is there a mod that add more generals for the faction? Kinda boring to always see the same 2 dwarfs lords or the same 4 empire lords

>>143690383
Fantasy HRE and fantasy landsknechts are pretty unique desu. Not many fantasy settings have those. Also don't compare it to lotr. Warhammer lore is made for a tabletop game.

Also at least the orcs actually have some extensive lore unlike Tolkien's orcs.

>>143690657
The First Law Trilogy
The Malazan Book of the Fallen

Grimgor is built for killing shit.

You should slot his secondary skills as leadership so you keep da boyz in line.

this isn't fucking normal, look at that last pic at the pool of water.

In battles, I can't see anything that's happening

Can we please just delete Marauder Horsemen from the game? They single handedly ruin the early game of every Chaos campaign and their only purpose is to make me auto resolve every fight

I mean, those skills that give you something like +15 melee attack for your lord when you already have 150 doesn't make almost any difference.

Meanwhile, skill that for example gives your infantry +12 attack and +12 defense makes massive difference, because their melee and defense values are much lower.

>>143690894
As much as I love them, Malazan and Black Company aren't exactly unique in their setting. They are were executed and very enjoyable, that's for sure.
There's nothing wrong with a well made setting that doesn't reinvent the wheel.
