Slayers. They're versatile and fast. Don't worry about 0 armour it's not a problem

>>145069902

Ironbreakers. They're just so fucking good. On your main army, you shouldn't have any other melee infantry besides Ironbreakers.

Slayers are completely useless and Hammerers can dish out some damage but they take it equal amounts. As a dorf, you'll be doing most of the killing with your ranged units anyways so Ironbreakers being the toughest cunts around+the moral damage caused by their satchel charges makes them the ace choice.

Well you can build the gunnery school in Nuln, which gives a factionwide bonus to your artillery iirc. Kislev is sorely undeveloped now though.

Feminist retards are a dying breed. They had legitimate issues to complain about more than 30 years ago. These days the only inequality you'll find between the sexes is in the middle-east. Where these feminists don't want to go because they'd get killed.

Much easier to just sit back in their nice and comfy western world and make up "issues" where there are none. Again though, they're a dying breed and have to resort to outrageous complaints to generate enough attention these days. Give it a year tops and they'll be ridiculed by everyone, everywhere.

I'm digging through PFM, where can I find the parameter to edit Global Recruitment times?

>Feminist retards are a dying breed.

Not really.

The general public largely considers them a joke and their grievances are generally stupid and/or imagined.

But that doesn't mean they're dying, they have a larger reach than ever before, and it doesn't really matter how stupid an idea is, if any idea gets the amount of mainstream trumpeting that "Intersectional Feminism" currently get then it is going to catch on with some people.

Dismissing them out of hand as irrelevant or impotent just because their ideas are retarded is super fucking dangerous.

They have a complete fucking monopoly on the Humanities in basically every university in America, and while most of the kids they indoctrinate will eventually enter the real world and stop being stupid not all of them will.

>>145072327
I think global recruitment might just be a fixed 2x multiplier. Just edit the normal recruitment times, they're in land_units_tables or main_units_tables, don't remember. Alternatively you could find out how raise dead works and give that to the faction/units you want.

Plague of rust is awesome, transmutation of lead is also pretty good and boosted final transmutation kills generals really quickly but unfortunately cost way too much mana.

Afaik there are only Questing Knights and Grail Pilgrims missing but maybe they get Men-at-Arms with Sword and Shield or dismounted (Grail?) Knights.
As a proper faction they have their technology tree (well, only in the campaign) that should make some units really good, like Blessing of the Lady that gives Grail Knights a ward save

>>145073986
No, but this works best for me, halberds aren't good enough to warrant giving up the shielded bonus spearmen have. Rocket launchers disrupt the enemy infantry a lot better than steam tanks. I also have no interest in being a min-max autist.

Do you think we'll get all elves?

>>145074075
I took Sigvald on my legendary campaign. It was mostly for the hellcannon since saving siege-turns early game makes a huge difference.

Sigvald also gives +1 growth from turn 1, which ends up adding up, although it's quite minor.

>>145074075
+1 corruption is literally worthless. Archaon is the best choice.

>>145073659
I was just joking but I don't think normal KF could beat Lich King Arthas.

>>145074116
Having one halberd will help when you're going against large creatures better than spearmen, and considering the arty usually stopped working as soon as they got swarmed, having more steam tank is not a bad idea since they are good being ganked and can take away attention from your arty.

Having 4 gunners is just a bit wasteful since your tank can, well, tank most infantry and your greatswords can join in afterwards for flank attacks and mop ups.

More cavs just to protect your flank quickly and chase routing units.

>>145073540

Rocket launchers instead of just more Steam Tanks

Shit.

>Only 2 Demigryphs

Eeeeehhh

>>145074416
Handgunners are great for everything, be it sniping lords and heroes or rolling up the enemy flank. As well as protecting your arty from flanking cav and flying units. I don't find crossbows to be as reliable considering their slow missile speed.

You can also add two Legendary lords: The Green Knight and The Fay Enchantress (literally the most important character in all of Bretonnia)

What if CA had plans to expand upon mousillon and sell it as DLC? What happens to our boys mod in that case ?

Same with any mod that's good. Can they decide to throw it in the game regularly? Can they sell it?

Or have they restricted modding enough so that it won't step on their profits?

I don't think the Green Knight would make all that much sense, given that he's not really a leader, just a guy that pops out of the bushes every once in a while when Bretonnia is in trouble.

The Fay Enchantress definitely needs to be in there once they get released though, no question about that.

Hopefully they've put in the Lore of Life and the Lore of Beasts by then too.

Spearmen are for using as an anvil which they are much better at than Halberds

There's no reason at all to bring halberds when you have demigryph halberds, handgunners and Greatswords.

Empire Crossbows are shit and Handgunners.

Mages are poo-poo unless you use the magic mod and I can take or leave Warrior Priests, they're definitely less useful than Witch Hunters, Accusation is mad OP.

Vlad is the only von Carstein who even pretended to give a shit about the peasantry. Mannfred doesn't care about anything other than MORE NECROMANCY, and living under Konrad was just as bad as the von Draks, if not worse.

>>145075868
I think the meme stems from when Vlad von Carstein was in power as opposed to edgy-child-mannfred. Vlad was hesitant to make other nobles vampires, so the "blood tax" thing wasn't really in force. That, and the legions of undead he summoned would passively chill on the outskirts of towns and attack bandits and others who would refuse Vlad as their ruler, exclusively. The peasants were actually so content, especially since the previous ruler of Sylvania, Von Draken, was a big asshole, they moved for Vlad to become the Emperor. That's why there are fictional "accounts" of living militia willingly joining Vlad in his conquest.

Not just Clad, the whole point of the von Carsteins is that they are legitimate rulers, the peasantry joins them on the battle field out of loyalty.

Back when picking your blood-line was a thing von Carsteins could field human soldiers as their core troops alongside undead.

That's fucking ridiculous anon.

In Shogun 2, if I capture a territory, and then lose it, will the loss remove its influence from my clan renown?

Playing Ikko-Ikki, and as much as I love sowing revolts, I'm not keen on it forcing an early realm divide (owing to how Ikko revolts that succeed in capturing territory, add them to your domain). Mostly just wanting to use revolts in the Mori back-lines to keep their doomstacks off my skeleton crew manning the western frontier / choke point. There's no way I can defend the revolt towns, and kind of just want them as distraction. I'm at that turtle phase, and just want to keep them off my back so I can focus my strong stacks on the Takeda / non-chokepointed heartland around the Shogunate.

Also, how should one go about killing / capturing the black ship? Mori captured it. I want to set up trade, but it keeps fucking my token bow-kobaya fleets up.

Demi gryphs are OP. they scare off everything in one or two charges aside from the really heavy elite units.

Murder on horses they are.

I don't think clan renown ever goes down once it rises. You might have to switch you attention to smashing Mori's armies and getting a peace treaty.

As for the black ship, Sengoku bunes have the speed and troops to get in close and board it. You'll need a lot of them though.

Clan renown does go down a little bit if you lose territory, be it to rebels or other clans.

What I like to do is incite non-faction rebellions by use of agents or high taxes, and then using the rebels to create a no-man's land while avoiding realm divide. Works well for Shimazu if you want to deal with Chosokabe and advance on land alone without triggering RD too early.

the skaven fan-wank is real in this thread

also both chaos and the greenskins have a substancially greater power potential.

>empire in the eastern mountains
>dwarfs in sylvania

what the fuck did you do to your game?

>>145084397
I read something about EditSF being able to change stuff but I don't know how to operate anything in there and guess I'll just restart the campaign then, not that far into it.

>>145083356
Test it with a friend, as long as they get that wispy cloud thing above them, it should work.

>>145084719
They're failures alright but they're not really funny. Orcs would be the comedic relief.

>>145078038
>Greenskins
>the most boring lore and characters.

sigh...

>>145084689
>muh i can stop time

So what, he got weaker every time he used that shit, and Vlad is still immortal.

Boys I seem to be doing something wrong.

>play normal as vampire
>capture all other vampire territory
>suddenly I am at war with fucking everyone
>can't trade, because nobody likes me
>can't upgrade my units/buildings because I got no money
>enemies are constantly attacking me and as soon as I defend one settlement, they attack another one one the other side

Maybe having 3 generals at turn 40 was a bit to much? Should I just abandon my new cities and concentrate on upgrading my old stuff?

How do you guys use the "heroes"? They always got a super low % success no matter what I want to attack or destroy?

>>145084910
I enjoy playing the game with the settle anywhere mod.
The issue I was having in earlier playthroughs on VH and L was that when Chaos showed up as a main power it would crash through the map and cripple the Empire, Brets and Dwarfs in the area. When I used the mod it allowed whatever the dominant factions that existed to expand their influence to actually fight chaos.

The game is much more interesting because of it. The VC started attacking and controlling the mountains to the north so it was fun clearing them out settlement by settlement. The Empire was able to hold Chaos to the north and start consolidating its power south to help with the VC threat.

>normal as vampire
>having a hard time

dude what are you doing

>>145085210
Banshe for killing shit and tearing down walls, necros for money, wight kings for army, vamps for army and corruption.

>>145085392
My first TW game.

>>145085421
thanks

>>145085015
Orcs are serious business, they nearly destroyed the Empire multiple times and their leaders actually impose respect, also, they do not go around assasinating anything bigger than a rat because they are too scared

Skaven have only managed to invade a pointless jungle while it's inhabitants were busy fighting Chaos, and only by spreading plagues until they got kicked by some puny skink

>>145085210
for my legendary run, i pretty much sat my heros on their asses, supporting my economy. my beggining necromancer was at 40% building cost reduction because of the traits.

a lot of people seem to like to play really passively, and if you're not going to blitzkreig people i suggest you only have 1-2 armies of relatively cheap troops. winning battles as vampire counts relies heavily on your lords, either healing up crucial units, or fighting along-side their skeletons and zombies. mannfred being the strongest lord when fighting ai, likely in the entire game. getting the hunger skill and monitoring his health and casting invocation of nehek as necessary can turn him into an insane killing-machine.

other people seem to make-due by paying people off, though if you have mannfred and kemmler(with some hexwraiths) guarding your flanks on the campaign map, you can easily afford to be at war with fucking everyone, and still take out the empire.

SAY MY NAME

Taking heroes in a dwarf army? Yes or no. I was thinking of putting an engineer in the stacks for the bonuses, my stacks would be the lord, 5 iron breakers, 4 hammerers, 3 quarrellers, 2 organ guns, 4 grudge throwers, and an engineer. I found organ guns to be surprisingly useful against the undead and for stunlocking enemy lords and some monsters. Had them wrack up 200 kills each once by parking them on a slightly elevated position.

>>145085683
that line is so incredibly out of place for grimgor

>>145085686
YES! engineers have a skill that raises movement range and make artillery even better (and also, by fighting, you can be sure that when the lvl.15 engineer grudge pops up you don't have to deal with that shit)

Runesmiths also get some god-tier buffs (44% ward save? yes please)

And Thanes can deliver the pain, you may want something else tho

>>145085686
dwarf heros are pretty monsterous in combat. the runesmiths 44% damage reduction is ridiculous, and i'm not experienced with dwarfs but people were talking about the master engineer being quite good a few threads back.

>>145085683
DARKNESS COMES

I want Sylvanian Defence Force to leave

>>145085792
You are goddamn right

>>145085923
Yeah, thanes look a little bit lame as far as combat abilities go, and runesmiths look neat but I really hate giving up unit slots to a hero unit. I wish what they had done was every army had a hero slot where they could put one hero in and it isn't at the cost of any units.

>>145086013
Might give runesmiths a go later on.

>>145086242
embedding heroes and maybe lords into a unit would be awesome

What are the superior Tau of Fantasy Warhammer?

>>145086452
Lizardmen maybe?

>>145086025
If we had Vlad von Carstein then we wouldn't need to defend Sylvania. We could all be happy under Emperor von Carstein.

>>145086452
Tau are pretty much the Anti-Lizardmen.

>>145070915
>that one comment about lack of women in historical titles

>>145086397
If officers would actually function you could set a hero as a unit officer pretty easily. Abilities might be a bit tricky if you don't want them to affect the whole unit.

Man this sounds awesome. I think I'm gonna go look around in the files a bit.

>>145086452
Probably Nipponor Cathay if they had ever been fleshed out

>>145085137
Dio got stronger every time he used time stop, what are you on about.
Fuck off Vlad, you can't trick me with your Sylvanian propaganda.

Reminds me of that time Marie de Champagne bitched that the Arthurian Legends didn't have enough Frenchmen & had Chretien make an OC.

>>145086397
What if there was a type of follower for Lords and Heroes that appeared in battle as part of the character's unit? Maybe a "Band of Mercenaries" or Bodyguards follower that added a few units for each one the Lord has equipped.
