>Some things are simplified like sanitation is gone
So are provinces simplified a lot then? I liked the Medieval/Rome system a lot better because of how simple it was, Empire & Shogun were ok because they were straightforward as hell but Rome 2 was just way too much for me and killed the fun. I want Warhammer but idk if i could make it past the city building shit

I took marauders as meat shields, man tww multiplayer is such a mixed bag, I had several fun battles and the next one after this is some guy with manfred on a dragon and a vampries who instantly dropped sigvald with spells before I could close in and caused mass rout
single target spells and abilities should have a massive debuff if used on one target more than once in a battle, its ok if a spell drops 1/3 of your health once, its not ok if it kills your lord in the first minute
whats the fun in winning if you cheese?
How come dorfs never developed spear technology? You'd think that a race with no cavalry would want anti-cab weapons.

Couldn't they just use various other animations for them? Warriors of chaos could work for a lot of units.
Goatmen are basically men, and giants are giants. The problem would be centigors and maybe epic monsters like the jabberslyte.

Sad thing is, when you play as VC half the time you see any announcement there's a vampiress in the picture and they're always drop dead gorgeous, but then there's the ones that you can recruit and, well, they leave you pale.
Modders pls respond
Is there a mod out there that nerfs fucking Norsca?

This guy is absolutely terrible I regret picking him.
His first spell literally kills one goblin per cast and he dies in the blink of an eye in combat.
Anyone find themselves letting Chaos lords live to come back and fight another day to keep the campaign a bit interesting?
Feels like once I've beaten them off everything just goes stale. So once I've beaten their armies I don't chase the lord down, let them run away to keep fucking stuff up elsewhere.
>>144451580
no, he died pretty early on. they managed to get all my units but my leader routing with about 300 of them left and then fell apart when it looked like it was going to be a final stand to the death.
>overcast gaze of nagash
>over 2500 damage
Where the fuck can I look up actual spell stats? I had no idea this spell was so good.
>>144452019
Have you tried Fate of Bjuna? How do they compare? Casted it today from Mannfred and it literally deleted an entire unit of Wolf Riders at full health with just that.
>>144451910
Yes, only pick the combat focused heroes because they can take on units at a time. The mages can maybe damage units here and there, but melt as butter once they has to do something of significance
>>144449893
Did you say tendies?
>>144452345
What ifwe went over the Alps?
>manlets
>>144452153
They're very different. Fate of Bjuna is a good anti-unit spell, but Gaze of Nagash and Spirit Leash are great anti-hero spells. GoN is a missile spell, so you need a direct line of sight, and it can miss. But if you get Mannfred flying, and pretty close to the enemy, it completely fucks up single enemy targets.
>>144452537
Oh wait, for some reason I thought GoN was a unit spell as well. So it's basically an improved Soul Leech?
Flagellants when?
what dictates if i need siege equipment for a siege battle, do i have to wait 1 turn to take each capital or is there a need for a specific troop that can destroy gates?
Post best voice lines
>FOR THE EMPERAAAAAAAH!
>>144450363
That would be because they fucked this game up and made armor way too important to the point that its required on anything you want to live for more than two seconds in melee. Except then they put armor piercing in so that certain units can just shit on armor but still do the same amount of shitting to non-armored enemies. "Skilled" warriors with high melee stats are irrelevant in this game.
She should be able to be perfectly fine with just high melee attack and melee defense with like 15~ armor. Units like that should very rarely get hit instead of relying on armor to mitigate the damage.
This affects Chosen pretty bad too, but that's another topic.
>>144450205
The reverse is worse
>chaos raiders run away from the empire troops
>>144452996
Yeah, the Chaos campaign is pretty shitty to be honest.

It's more expensive and better at damage, but as I said it's a missile. Spirit Leech doesn't need line or sight.

there is severe armour inflation compared to say attila, its really weird, the units dont follow the common logic of - great weapon shock troops being glass cannons, for some reason they are just as heavily armoured, and in some cases even more armoured than their shielded frontline infantry, which makes anything that doesnt have armour pen redundant
though in the case of the vamp-tits I just assumed her armour value is that high since she is a vamp, maybe their bodies are just more resilient

Man I suck at economy in the newer TW games I got pretty decent in Rome 2 at the end but still I'm playing vamp cunts, I've defeated chaos and yet I can barely afford 2 armies.

Or maybe she's that highly armored because this is a goddamn video game and she is a special melee hero unit who takes up an army slot by herself so it makes sense for her to have better armor than dime a dozen units, even if those look like walking fortresses.

>>144454145
they are supposed to be frontline troops though, they where the best armour and surround the lord and break the enemy lines as shock troops. The wholer point of dwarfs is that they don't flank, they just survive through the thickest combat and end up smashing the other army down.
>>144453779
VCs only get monies from their two big building in capitals. The necromancer one and the vampire one. You just have to spam them. Use vampire agents to spur growth and necromancer agents to reduce build costs. You probably using your armies inefficiently too. One big mistake noobs make to using one elite force to crush peasant armies. Ideally you should have just enough unit power to win each battle. I bet your two armies are pure grave guard.

>>144455297
>Vampires should be hard to hit through stats alone
Armor is a stat. You can also get wards up to 75% and if you max out Thorgrim's defense he will only get hit once every 10 minutes. So that's 2 defensive stats that have the potential to vastly outperform armor. You might want to actually play the games you are talking about.
>>144455595
Why not Bat-talion?
>>144455784
wtf, did you go for that all flying achievement or is that Batman and Alfred?
>>144455963
>>144455597
This.
Armor is great against enemies with no armor piercing damage, but as soon as they're up against anything with great weapons the armor stat almost turns into semi-useless.
>>144454708

Didn't even know there was an achievement for that, not that I actually got it because those Lords aren't mounted on dragons. I just wanted to test the power if the "god-tier"fell bats that the tier-list fag keeps mentioning.
When amassed like this, they pretty much instantly morale-drop people, even Lords. It just takes a while to shatter them because the bats don't really do damage.

There are no high melee defense low armor units in this game. Including units that should have low armor. That's because they designed armor to mitigate almost all of the damage. There's a minimum hit chance so even shit like Zombies will actually do decent amounts of damage. Melee Defense is almost useless.
There's nothing Great Weapon Chosen for example will come up against that Normal Chosen would have been better against. There's nothing that hormal Grave Guard will come up against that Great Weapon Grave Guard wouldn't have been better against.
The way that it SHOULD be and the way that the game is currently balanced are two wildly different things.

This means that a single ghost could spook Reikland so hard half the money made there is squandered. Fucking spook magic.
>>144456982
You should be going after the Border Princes, Tilea and Estalia too. They have ports and resource buildings, which both help with income.
Damn, I couldn't have chosen a better location for this battle myself. Though by getting Gelt so late, I think my units were a tad OP for this. It's obviously made to bait you into an ambush in the middle, but I pounded them with arty and lost only 86 men.
world conquest is kind of a bitch as undead, I lost like 5 or 6 armies to Thorgrim's stack just because they had lost 60-70% of their strength just from auto-resolve killing garrisons and attrition. Based Heinrich finally caught him in an underground intercept and dealt with him and his million organ guns.

No wonder Chaos keeps steamrolling everything.

>>144457354
The AI does build guard posts, but they don't rush them like they should against chaos.
>>144457484
They're very useful when deployed on the flanks like that, with protection close by. One of them got 233 kills in that battle, while the other raped the arachnarok.
>>144453661

There's a mod on the workshops that makes Vamp influence easier to spread, but I doubt you have any interest in playing through another VC campaign.

Do you have literally any reason to use the word nigger here other than to be edgy?
Wight Lords look like they're having a real good time.
>>144457771
Not noticeably.
Why are the VC fighting chaos? I thought they were just another faction/followers of another god of chaos.
Are there badder guys than chaos?
>>144457771
They do cheat with money, but it doesn't have unlimited money. You can wage economic warfare against them, but it takes more to make a dent than against a human player.

It's not like they have any organs that need protection from stabbing.
>>144457925
The first Vampires were followers of Nagash, who was the first Necromancer and did not have anything to do with Chaos, though dark magic is kinda indirect Chaos influence.
The Undead are actually the opposite of Chaos, since they embody order and unchanging stasis, while Chaos is all about turmoil and change, or stagnation, in the case of Nurgle, which is really just backwards change.
>>144458110
the best part is, the AI isn't even using them
>>144458347
They did when they were alive.
>>144457749
It's not that it's too hard to spread, just too hard to spread in provinces that I can't control. I had no issue steamrolling the empire building balefire braziers everywhere, within 25 or so turns most of the empire was above 50% corruption.
And as annoying as this campaign was, chaos was more annoying
>AI knows where your stacks are and some random faction like Tilea will send a full stack to kill off any lord that isn't healthy
>Armies can't reinforce each other without taking attrition
I think that one took about the same amount of turns. On hard it took me about

>>144458970
chaos was my first campaign so I might do better if I tried again, but the key to empire:
1. early game use mostly spearmen and crossbows. Tech to Empire Knights/Reiksguards ASAP. Grab some mortars on the way.
2. kill empire secessionists ASAP. DO NOT LOSE YOUR REIKSGUARDS. You don't get decent cavalry for quite a long time so you have to make due with them.
3. never war another Imperial human faction, waste of time. Shield of Civilization will let you ally/confed them easily later on
4. Get Stirland allied with you early, confederate them if possible
5. Spend the early game wrecking the undead. The AI is fucking dogshit at playing undead so you can just snipe their counts with mass crossbows and roll over whatever doomstacks they have easily
6. When chaos comes just ally fucking everyone, build a few well rounded stacks using Halberdiers as your frontliners and take them out
7. Don't bother confederating northern factions until at least chaos is dealt with, just keep them as allies. Once chaos is gone you can focus on dealing with the norsicans. Burn their coastal settlements and they'll usually sue for peace.
Does anyone else have Aesling constantly getting into wars with other tribes? This is getting annoying.

Does this action have your consent /twg/?
ayy
>>144461082
>4chan just automatically posted while I was typing
Well okay.
Karl carried the day so Goddamn hard, descending upon the skeletonis like a hungry swan, engaging the first Vampire Lord, the AI clustering maybe five regiments of skeleton spears around him to swamp him down, letting my handgunners and crossbowmen pelt at them at leisure. The Reiksguard barreling in as I got the Bloodroar off caused maybe two-three hundred skeletons to fall apart by crumbling.
There were so many enemy regiments that I had to micro-manage every single ranged unit I had to force them into a crumbling state. Goddamn.
So at this current point in time, in your opinion, how does TWWH rank in comparison to other TW games?
>>144461216
They wouldn't be at any risk of losing it

Personally? I think it's really damn good.
On paper it's missing an assload of features that attila had, like food, sanitation, ship battles, port assaults, and garbage sieges, but for whatever reason I don't think about that stuff when I'm playing. It's just really fun.
and like >>144461414 said it's really well polished and runs very well
>>144461329
Pissed me off that re-enforcing armies ALWAYS come at you from your flanks or from behind even if both enemy stacks were standing right next to each other on the campaign map.
>>144461279
Really I think they got so bad because they're really the only fantasy miniatures wargame that anyone has ever gave a shit about.
I mean there have always been other fantasy wargames, but when someone thinks of fantasy miniatures, most instantly think WARHAMMER.
Because of that, they let that get to their heads, and they started over-valuing their products, and now nobody can afford to play their games because the price of 5 fucking plastic figures is 60$ almost.
TL:DR, they got jewy when they became overly cocky

I only played Shogun, Rome, Medieval 2+Kingdoms, Napoopan, Shogun 2+Rise+Fall, Rome 2 and Warhammer
It's my personal favorite so far. Could use a bigger map, more races, also more legendary lords for existing ones but hopefully DLCs and the expansions will address it and make it even better. I wish it didn't have Rome 2's cancer garrison system but overall it's great.

its bad because:
no variety
wall climbing
5 second long battles
brain dead AI that cannot win a siege
in fact sieges both defensive and offensive are incredibly easy
settlements are a shitty castle in the middle of nowhere, not a city or a village
boring as fuck map since its just a long narrow island

I can admire their ambition with Empire, but the game without heavy modding sucks shit
And even then it's not better than the other TWs
>>144460746
the fuck is that
>>144462608
I'd start off with Shogun II from a pure gameplay perspective, but the best tip has always been to just start with the game you find the most interesting.
Find a list of TW games, find the one that represents the era in history you like the best, and then just play that.
>>144462814
medieval 2 mod it looks like
>>144462608
>Is Empire any good?
Fall of the samurai or Napoleon if you want gunpowder
Shogun 2 is a nice place to start in general.
>>144462608
Shogun is gr8 if you care about Sauramans, MTW2 has the GOATest mods, Napoopan is gr8, Empire is decent if you want to conquer Europe, Anerica AND India, Attila is probably one of the best games but maybe a bit hard for a newcomer, pick up Rome II if it's on sale
any tips for starting with dwarfs?
is expanding south the best way to go?
>>144462608
Attila is objectively the best TW, but it's noones favorite. basically pick an era that you like and get that one

My waifu is ready to help expand the von Carstein claim over the Empire.
alright after 100 hours of warhammer, this is the worst total war by far. literally zero content and the AI is actually even worse somehow. this shit needs mods badly.
also why the fuck ARE THERE NO victory videos or speeches. did they just decide that chaos was the only ingame event players would play up to before they win? fucking stupid.

You don't even have to group them. You can drag the cards around. Deployment is always in the card order.
For example in anon's pic in >>144462750 if you selected all the crossbows and dragged them to deploy, the silver chevron would be the third from the right.

I was discouraged because I just barely eked out the last battle because I intercepted a pair of armies of 16 total milita units. With this hill, I can definitely win the battle, but I'll probably have to evacuate the territory no matter the outcome and give up on sieging the city

One thing I hate about hills, when they have those wrinkles in them and you think you have a clear shot but you actually have to move forward or backwards a bit and the line gets messed up.

What's wrong with the armor piercing stat? I know grave guard in Call of War hammer have the 'effective against armor' stat which I think is essentially the same thing

Chaos AI vs other AI seems unbalanced in calculations, I watched a small depleted band taking out towns and full-stacks, then I easily stomped them in a full battle. Some chaos units seem to be a lot more powerful in auto rolling

What does the lore say about that? Don't the wood elves manipulate bretonian society?
Speaking of bretonians, I'd like to play them in when they release but I've noticed from battling them that their peasants have the most obnoxious voices.
>anons tell me to rush for mount gunbad
>send army out
>full stack of scabby eyes beelines it for my provinces
You fuckers
Jesus Christ, how the fuck do you even make Orcs work? The dwarfs fucking beeline for you from turn 1, and unlike them, you can't defend worth shit early on.
Should i just ignore the orcs to the south and bumrush Kraz-a-Karak?
>Can't land flying units unless they are attacking.

>>144465920
basically, the "Lady of the Lake", deity of Bretonia is an scummy elf who uses them as pawns against Chaos
>>144465920
Yeah, the lady is a wood elf god. So they have a sort of mutually beneficial relationship although the Bretonnians don't actually know the specifics of it
But it's why they permanently arthurian
Everything about them is likely to be obnoxious since the faction started as a very blatant lift from monty python
On turn 5 of my Empire playthough, when I had Franz away from Altdorf killing the last of the secessionists, a full marauding orc stack came in and fucked all my shit up.
Does that happen every playthrough?
>install mod to make tower ranges more realistic
>it also made them uncapturable
>>144465989
You can eliminate the dwarfs faction by like turn 10
And if you do that they can't confederate, use raiding stance to get your fightiness up if you can't actually fight that turn
>>144466185
No but there's like 3 different factions near the empire who can possibly turn aggro to you
The orcs are probably the ones the other side of marienberg

Not even, the Bretonians are little more than abused guard dogs. Wood Elves don't give a shit about them unless they step out of line or Elves need something. A chosen few are empowered by the Lady to do her bidding and half the kingdom will be invaded by orcs before they get their shit together. They'd be better off getting annexed by the Empire 200 years late than being their own kingdom.
>>144466817
>There's a place called Bay of Blades in Norsca
>>144453505
That's what the chaos wastes should look like imo, not like Canada
So, is the Chaos campaign difficulty dependant on a die roll? From the way some people were talking about it I expected to get stomped within 20 turns, but the worst I could say is that it got a bit tedious toward the end. Seemed rather easy for the most part. Did I luck out?
>>144466968
Empire doesn't have magic rewards for quests

>>144466585
This is bad; arty can't position to get a shot at anything too close, and they've made it to the base of the hill. Hopefully canister shot can still touch them. Their general remains in good cover and their 12lber artiller is hammering my hill.
First shots have been fired at their detachment probing my right flank

Tip for Vampire Count players.
In a siege, if you put your army on one side of the map, then have your lord on a mount trot over to the undefended secondary gate, you can raise a unit of zombies inside the enemy walls to capture the gate and let your entire force through.

So much so that when the truth is revealed half of Bretonnia rebels. Probably the one good/funny thing Mannfred ended up doing.

You can buy them out at ludicrous prices, wait 'til some non-human threat is beating the shit out of them, or engage in a little red diplomacy to make them see how much better it is under the imperator. All the counts except for the Imperial Distrust counts would rather have their lands under protection of empire than in the hands of non-humans, so that's really the prime time to check.

have poorly resumed end of Bretoniabasically, when the knights find out the true identity of the "Lady of the Lake" they are outraged, so much that they abandon their leader in the final stand of the world and go back to Brettonia, only the Grail Knights, Blood Dragons and some loyalists remain, leaving them to die (in battle, right before the entire setting got squatted)
So are the few peasants left, but those at least never wasted their entire lives worshipping a traitorous god
Basically, they fucked off
>>144468106
Chaos will make them come running to you. Just make sure you can defend most of your new territory, and don't be afraid to disband useless armies if you get them.

This is the mannfred von carstein? Are undeads the goodies in end times? Are they trying to stop chaos?
>>144469141
I've been playing Empire on very hard.
If you defeat the secessionists too quickly the other counts declare war on you.
You can build stables in Grunberg which lets you hire experienced cavalry.
The Ghal Maraz quest requires you to defeat 5 greenskin armies with Karl, so leave some weak greenskin armies alive at the beginning or else you have to trudge all the way east to find other greenskins.
Marienburg grants a huge chunk of income courtesy of the docks. You can vassalize the dwarves to the west and south of you and they'll be stalwart allies for the rest of the game.

Fuckin raciss ass End Times.
>>144469545
>This is the mannfred von carstein?
Yes.
>Are undeads the goodies in end times?
Depends. Nagash is a narcissistic evil fuck, Arkhan is a pragmatic evil fuck, and Mannfred is a petty evil fuck. On the other hand Settra is a narcissistic good guy, Khalida is basically a paladin that only allied with Nagash after Settra was memed on, and Vlad is basically the definition of pragmatic lawful neutral despite being the OG Sylvanian vampire.
>Are they trying to stop chaos?
At that point they were more or less forced to since Nagash failed to become a super-god. The End Times is basically about Nagash starting out as the BBEG then becoming increasingly irrelevant as Chaos wins/Order loses.
>>144469845
To take advantage of that victory, I'll have to win Take this town, this turn. if I try and siege it they'll just concentrate forces and drive me backNapoleon did all this shit when he was 26 and never commanded an army, and his troops were starving, underpaid, and his general staff hated him because he had been given command of this army as a wedding present by some people who weren't fans of his

What are these militia units?
>>144470259
Halberds are amazing infantry and have a ton of techs and skills that buff them.
Mortars are very cost effective artillery.
The volley gun is an expensive piece of shit.
Pistoleers are garbage, don't bother hiring them. Hire Outriders if you want missile cav
Demigryph Halberds rape enemy cav and everything in general.
You can build a clay economic building in altdorf, but it's up to you if you need more building slots for other stuff.
Nuln has a unique building that greats xp for all artillery recruits.
Bright Wizards have 2 very good buffs they can cast, one for armor and one for damage.
Steam tanks are very very good tanks.
Get Karl on deathclaw ASAP if you plan on using him to fight.
You can stuff an army full of cheap spearman if you want to autoresolve battles.
In fact autoresolving against chao is a much less frustrating that fighting them because fuck chaos hounds.

Is it bad to hate undead? It's not their fault they were born that way. There must be a good one somewhere and if we assume they are all bad that one good skelly will be stereotyped and that's not fair. They just want to do the work the empire doesn't want to do.

Its not like the most of the other gods were ever human. what does it matter if you worship an elf god or a human god. They still give you divine powers to smite your foes and they were planning to make you a demi-god in your afterlife.
Like who gives a shit. they're a god. they're something more than human or elf or anything. Hell they're better because they'll listen to your prayers before battle and protect you from cannon balls. that's better than most other gods.
Also the elf god shit is End times lore. so if you accept it, then you accept all of the end times lore. Check mate atheist.

My name is Mannfred, and I hate every single one of you. All of you are fat, retarded, still-living scum who spend every second of their day looking at stupid ass pictures of Sigmar. You are everything bad in the world. Honestly, have any of you ever gotten any pussy? I mean, I guess it’s fun making fun of people because of your own mortal insecurities, but you all take to a whole new level. This is even worse than jerking off to idols of Slaanesh
Don’t be a stranger. Just hit me with your best shot. I’m pretty much perfect. I was leader of the Blood Knight team, and starter on my Nehekharn Basketball team. What sports do you play, other than “jack off to naked drawn high Elves”? I also get straight A’s, and have a banging hot undead waifu (She just spirit leeched me; Shit was SO cash). You are all faggots who should just kill yourselves. Thanks for listening.

alright so this is what I've been doing
added several more variants to the vampire lord so in the rare case you ahve 2 they won't look similiar while still maintaining the theme. works real well.
had an insidious idea about banshees, which i was previously stuck on.
tried to solve the grave guard leg day problem with little success, infact I have a question as I'm caught on it.
so what I'm doing is trying to find 1 variant that doesn't have spooky skele bottoms but still maintains the overall undead look, so after heaps of fiddling I've came across this combo

>Is it worth spamming missions with agents just to get them to level?
Yes, you want to have a max level With Hunter / Banshee / Big Boss / Rune Smith in every army to lower enemy agents chances of success.
Or you could be a casual scrub like >>144473003
>>144473092
>installing a mod that makes the AI cheating a bit less bad makes one a scrub
Rats BTFO
>>144473083
Left one is Dani Daniels
>>144472919
I do when I have money coming out my ass like when playing chaos but otherwise just spam assassinate until you kill one I guess. If you use banshees or their equivalent to deploy and lower success rate you can get them injured with defense too
>>144470539
>>144473267
>Using agents is cheating
>>144472659
Is the head separate from the helmet? They'd love to see them with the skeltal shining eyes
>ywn be as happy as that skeleton
I don't actually get how you're supposed to play Vamps on the Kemmler start
You have no capacity for killing the enemy lord because you both lack soul leech and have a lord that's awful in combat. So I can't see how you get the Templehof forces to crumble as early game you're always fighting against superior forces
Also he nearly killed himself with two miscasts lol
On the other factions the second lord offers something different, if inferior. But Mannfred is an exceptional mage and fighter whilst Kemmler's just a mage with a single, weak, lore of magic

whats wrong with the armor piercing stat in warhammer?
>>144473457
I have vegetation on low
>>144473460
Why do you keep asking me this?
>>144473460
I think their logic is that loads of people have armour piercing so it makes armour really weak compared to increased health
In reality I just think they don't own the game
>>144473274

>>144473604
That's what I did on that battle but it was the easy intro one
On the other battles I've got the lord's just sat in the middle of a load of zombie units
They need to add Chaos Daemons...
>>144473783
>wanting to play another shitty horde
>>144473446
Necromancer sucks overall. The constant heal would be nice if the range were larger or it was stronger. As it is I think it would be tempting to pick one if it gave regeneration to the whole battlefield or at minimum increased with your command bubble size but you basically have to stand in the battle line to heal three units max just a little bit in exchange for not having an awesome vampire Lord
They should have made the option to play as an Ork horde, but with 40 units in the army. Then I could just WAAAAGH around the map instead of managing all these bullshit provinces.

>>144473360
the weird thing is it should work but for some reason only for the cav anon its still being blue, as you can see from pic related.. 90% of helmets in the game are infact modeled upon the head sadly.
anyway do you think the black skirt works with grave guard?
>>144473783
Already in
>>144473975
>>144473446
It'd be neat if someone could get a create a lord mod going or something
Some of the hero magic trees look decent but you barely see them because of lords already being your designated spellcaster
>>144473568
>>144473546
cause you mentioned it how it's 'convoluted bullshit' here >>144464674
unless that wasn't you? i'm just really curious as to why some one would say that when their already something like that in the BotE mod and Call of warhammer mod.
>>144473895
They don't have to be a horde. They could be led by the daemons but be majority cultists in the form of population.
You build shrines and daemonic buildings to spread chaos corruption and subvert all kingdoms.
>>144474097

let me show you the horrors
>>144474015
>>144473360
I figured it out anon the blue glow is still there but the stance animation of the footsoldiers makes it so it appears more inside the head than the cav. I have no idea how to edit the parameters of blue spook glow though or I would be able to nudge it forward and fix the issue
Why is Karl so majestic and inspiring, lads?
He is truly Sigmar's heir.
>>144474627
Max out the Watcher and Bodyguard skills to counter agent spam. In battle use them to snipe heroes / lords / monsters
>>144474775
Sigmar wasn't remotely majestic though, he was a brute who got shit done because of his ability to beat anyone up
Karl is a pampered child
Is it me, or do Dwarfs snowball out of control once you deal with the Greenskins?
Empire's central location makes defending more of a challenge until everyone to your south is friendly with you, and if the Dorfs get fucked that won't happen.
>>144474483
>>144474640
That was meant to be a chaos sorcerer, unmodded game also.
>>144462286
They have 50% shields, frontliners should have shields IMO so they can soak better.

oh ok. sorry then. :(
>>144473989
now this I can respect, someone fund this.
>>144474886
he is the evolution of those barbarian terrors who beat the orcs into submission, the final form. and pampered though he may be he can also beat the shit out of anybody with that hammer.
>>144474915
Dwarfs are probably the easiest faction in the game
Everyone else has a big threat in a major city but dwarfs don't get that
Sorry for a retarded question, but is DX12 already implemented in Warhammer: TW?
>>144475084
No, it coming "soon"
>>144475042
Dorfs ain't hard unless you run into grimgor
>>144474886
>Sigmar wasn't remotely majestic
Wait till the Holy Order of the Templars of Sigmar hears about this nonsense.
>>144475042
Orcs can be easy too
You can immediately kill the dwarfs off and that basically guarantees that you won't face a strong dwarf faction all game
>>144475150
All right, thanks.
>>144474886
Doesn't Karl have a warp-touched son?
>>144465404
Shielded units will sit there holding a line, for one.
Halberds are actually useful(probably too strong form the front really) and will actually kill Cav. Demigryphs in TW:Warhammer are fucking ridiculous and won't die to Halberds AT ALL but something like Bloodcrushers will die in droves to even shit halberds or spears in Beginning of the End Times. You are actually punished for getting cav into poke sticks.
Units that actually cleave through heavy armor are really rare and take heavy damage in return because they don't have shields, and in medieval 2 shields actually do something.
i left this reply up from like 2 hours ago so im going to post it now :D
>>144474886
Karl's a badass, he's also just not a drooling retard and can actually negotiate unlike a certain other crippled emperor
>>144475342
And instead of killing the mutant he just locked him away
Karl is weak as fuckshame vlad's dead
Anyone else get the "update drivers" message on the WH launcher? I swear mine are up to date though.
A herd of vile beasts blocks the path of my conquering armies. I'll have to butcher them.

Do you become a horde until you take the city you want or something?

Rats give back not-Brazil!
>>144476654
Epic, the lore in this game boils down to lizards vs rats. What's next, cockroaches? Did Games Workshop literally get inspiration from watching someone clean a filthy kitchen?
Fucks sake when will CA dump this shitpile and get back to history

Too bad about the UI
>>144476549
>yfw Shrek is in the WHFB universe
Jesus christ these city sieges are one cramped shitshow, trying to navigate some cav in there is a total nightmare.
>>144475912
>>144476102
hey anon unfortunately for the majority of models the head is modeled with the helmet as a singular piece,so in your 2 examples both the skeleton ehads and the bret heads are infact "1 single model" instead of head+helm.
the few exceptions being usually captain units of various armies. I'm just finishing off the wight king atm but once I'm done I'll see if I can force the game to load both the skeleton head AND the bret helmet to see what happens.
ALSO this is curently the wight king,completely wip still but I sorta like his armour theme, if I can I'll find him a special helmet too
>>144477081
>Franz is lord farquad

>>144476534
I deny the orcs a powerful charge. My bone giants wade into the center of the horde and set to smiting them by the dozen.
>>144477008they're going to change the UI, so at least there's that
>>144477170
Holy fuck dude this is amazing
Are you a girl? Want a bf?
Fucking great. Gonna be one of those "scramble like maniacs to save your retarded garrison reinforcements before the marauders rout them" battles.
No mods have fixed reinforcement points yet? My marshal was in the castle, with the garrison. Why the fuck would you sally out separately.
Is this mod good?
