>OVERCASTING SPELLS
Double click a spell (it needs to be a boostable spell and you need to have enough magic in the magic pool) to overcast the spell
There's a 50% chance that the caster damages itself though!

>QUEST BATTLE TELEPORT
Select your lord (make sure he isn't garrisoned or in a stance)
Select the quest battle (on the map or through quest log)
There's a button in the bottom right of the quest battle window that you can use to teleport for 5k gold (when the battle's finished you're automatically teleported back to your original position)

>GROUP ATTACK
Group units with ctrl + g
Select your group and right click the enemy
All your units move and automatically direct themselves to and engage enemies they get close to while maintaining formation

Hey /twg/,

This was my very first Total War and I'm left scratching my head a little. I played as Empire, which was very fun and had some interesting thematic elements. Offices are cool as shit. Having my Arch Lector heading the war against Vampires makes sense and feels good. However some units seem to seriously underperform (here's looking at Halberdiers/Handgunners) compared to their cheaper, lower tech counterparts. Magic is definitely broken (I have to play on Medium unit size, but even still Searing Doom is literally a waste of Winds of Magic), and agents are seriously fucked up (my level 14 assassin specced captain has not a high enough chance to assassinate but my level 2 brightwizard does? What?), but in general it seems all right. It all ended a bit abruptly though as I showed up in time for Archeon and Friends to come out of the woodwork with literally twice their numbers from confederated stacks (these were just the vanguard too), and pretty much decimated them in zero time flat and the game just ended, when I thought the game I was playing all that time was merely the buildup to the invasion of Chaos.

What really gets me though is that in 90 turns, I didn't end up getting any of the high end units. I was so busy rapidly expanding that there was never a point at which I could reasonably dismiss bad/old units like plain Spearmen and recruit new ones or replace them with higher experience recruits because even with a dozen provinces I didn't have the economy to support doing that with the global recruitment and my stacks were a million miles away from the finally teched up provinces to do so locally. I had access to Steam Tanks and Demigryphs in the last 10 turns of the game but Karl Franz was trying to get Ghal Maraz in the fucking Badlands while everyone else was finishing off the Vampires or getting to Chaos. Should I have built tall instead of wide? Fewer armies? What do I do to get my catbird knights?

pic related is my map at the end of 93 turns
>>
In terms of competitive play:
Empire > VC > Orcs > Chaos > Bretonnia > Dwarfs

prove me wrong
>>
>>145463582
Chaos last, maybe equal to Dwarfs.
Orcs and Bretonnia seem to be equal too.

I'd rather go with:
>high tier
Empire
VC

>mid tier
Orcs
Bretonnia

>bad tier
Dwarfs
Chaos
>>
>>145463494
sorry I meant the warriors in chaos armour cos they can't take it off. Also nurglite followers can't feel sensations and abhor reproduction and espouse decay and death, Khorne aint too bothered and Tzeentch is probably only interested in reproduction and not the sensual side of raping.
>>
>>145463862
Chaos defeat dwarfs 9 times out of 10 and greenskins can destroy VC quite easily. Empire and VC don't belong in teh same category at all.

>God tier
Empire

>Good tier
VC, Greenskins

>average tier
Chaos Bretonnia

>Shit tier
Dwarfs.
>>
>>145463553
93 turns is pretty quick, usually you can't really expand that fast without people declaring war on you and taking advantage of weaknesses, or having major public order penalties. You probably want to maintain at least around 3k surplus gold per turn, otherwise your economy can't grow fast enough, you can't earn more money, you can't build more buildings and get higher tier units and build more armies. Globa recruitment shouldn't be something you rely on too much. It honestly doesn't take that long to march an army across the Empire with forced march, so if you pump out a bunch of greatswords, demigryphs and steam tanks from Altdorf, you could send them up the river and have them fighting Chaos in like three turns. Also, you can teleport to quest objectives. Considering they always seem to be ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD, it's usually worth it to dish out the 5k gold, which is really worth it, considering the expense of army upkeep and what you're wasting by marching Karl Franz and his merry men across the world for a dozen turns.

You should probably build taller. On higher difficulties, it's basically necessary or you get overrun. I assume for your first game you played on either easy or normal, so the AI is a lot less aggressive and doesn't punish weakness as much. But I tried playing Empire on very hard the other day, and within 16 turns, I was getting attacked by three full stacks of ELECTOR COUNTS and a pack of fucking dwarves, on top of the greenskins rampaging around.

Cool end to a cool battle. Enemy Dwarf army had like 2 cannons and 3 organ guns which absolutely chewed up my Chosen as they were closing in. Finally closed in, got a couple arty units tied up as well as plenty of Ironbreakers, Slayers, and Longbeards. Used my second line Great Weapon Chosen to plug gaps and start to surround, and the faster Forsaken and Chaos Spawn to hit the Thunderers and strike the front line melee dorfs from behind. Wasn't long before they were all dead. However, old mate Ungrim wouldn't back down. So for the next 5 minutes Archeon and Ungrim had a fight to the death.

Yeah, it was on Normal, but I'm very shit at the RTS portion of the game (outside of a strong rolling flank or hitting rear with Cav I can't seem to do anything fancy with any consistency, including re-positioning ranged to shoot into melee), but I suppose I'll give simple ol' Hard a try for a run as Balthasar Gelt. I ended up with an economy of 7K+ per turn, but with how expensive buildings are, upgrading something in any of 13 fucking provinces meant that 7K profit more or less didn't exist. I was getting Greatswords into most of my armies, but again, this was a huge sink. Is it acceptable to "bench" a Lord for a few turns by disbanding his units so the savings from Upkeep can be used to higher better/more experienced units, or is this wasting the Lord? Thanks for the advice/info though!

>>145465302
The whole point of my post was that I had serious trouble getting anything that required T4 or T5 buildings. I had been saving up to make the Battle College in Altdorf and the special Shrine in Middenheim so I could recruit like Level 6 Wizards and Warrior Priests, but being that they costed 15000 gold, I got to train exactly one Warrior Priest before the game ended, never mind trying to get Witch Hunters. It does seem like this is more a symptom of my having built wide because I AM PRINCE AND EMPEROR so I thought stupidly that I should control the whole Empire. Wissenland was actually last to go because I didn't even have a "confederate" option for them, so I had to betray them and make people hate me just to get at that sweet, sweet Nuln Gunnery School.
>>
>>145466397
It's never worth it, regional occupation is actually really good and makes the game much more interesting
>>
>>145466145
Ah, that is a shame. Hypothetically, if you sacrifice one slot per settlement to a binding circle, you can reach a theoretical maximum of n+1 banshees per province, where n is the number of settlements in that province. This works out to 14 banshees if you hold both Sylvanias, Stirland and Averland. The 250g upkeep and the banshee starting at level 1-7 doesn't make it seem worthwhile though.

Bretonnia DLC and campaign when?

;_;

>>145466552
If you disband a lord, you can get him back with no penalty for free from the lord pool by making a new army, I'm pretty sure. If you ended up with that much per turn, you should have been able to constantly be upgrading your stuff and increasing your profits massively. Definitely make sure you grab Marienburg as soon as possible, the harbor makes you a tonne of money. Also, be sure to trade with everyone you possibly can all the time, and build as many resource buildings, like gold mines and dye factories or whatever, as you can. You can also just go sack towns for huge amounts of gold. Instead of occupying everything and spreading yourself too thin, just sack settlements that aren't really ideal, especially if they're worth heaps. I mean, if you're getting 7k gold a turn, it's not that much, but earlier on and mid-game it can be great. Definitely make sure you build up your economy though. Most of your towns and villages should have a money making building in them, especially considering you don't really need much else. I find that one farm/cattle building is enough per province, especially once you get growth bonus research and stuff, and you don't need very many military production provinces, considering you can just build an army in Reikland and send it off anywhere pretty quickly. Walls are very important, though.

>>145466552
>upgrading something in any of 13 fucking provinces meant that 7K profit more or less didn't exist
So? The cash isn't doing any good sitting in your bank account. Ending each turn with basically 0 gold left in your account is a perfectly reasonable thing to do. It also cuts down on the idiotic diplomatic requests, as the AI knows how much cash you've got and sends you ridiculous requests for all of it.

You may not have had a confederate option because of some malarkey with your alliances, if wissenland were at war with someone you were allied to (possibly karak norn fucking shits) I think you can't confederate.

the only stat difference on higher difficulties is lower leadership, which isnt a problem for most factions, but makes Vamps really keen to crumble, what I am getting to with this is that playing vamps on legendary is a lot more annoying that playing any other factions

interestingly enough playing AGAINST vamps on legendary is annoying too, that extra +10 leaderships means that the fuckers refuse to crumble

I've found that, while it's annoying to play any faction in legendary battle difficulty because they break easily except for maybe dwarves, Greenskins and VC have it the worst. Greenskins rout pretty much instantly after the initial charge, and VC start crumbling asap, while killing the enemy lord doesn't have nearly as much effect.

Build buildings that improve public order. Have one or two agents rotate in areas under your control whose skills are maxed for public order. Try to conquer provinces as quickly as possible so you can declare commandments that improve on public order. Use Agents and buildings to reduce corruption unless you're vampires, then increase corruption.

Kill raiders as fast as possible, carry the fight to your enemies so they stop coming to your turf and disturbing the public order with their presence.

Might be worth sending a crusade or two to kick the shit out of the vamps as well. The Empire will likely be distracted at best, sending armies into slyvannia rather than against the chaos hordes, or start losing provinces to opportunistic undead at worst. In my victorious dwarf campaigns I tend to find the Empire only really gets their teeth into chaos once I've killed the vampires for them.

Hi,

we're playing a coop game right now and for some reason the game is stuck on my partner's side right at the beginning of his turn.
The AI cycled through the different faction moves and when his turn officially starts, the countdown is stuck at 4:59 and he can't move any units or interact with the world in any other manner.

Any ideas on how we could fix this?
We tried reloading the autosave, but that didn't fix anything.

Now that you can bask in this moment of glory of yours, maybe you can be so kind as to kindly explain how somehow building a "wrong" building or having a different building order can make a difference in M2 like it can in r2/attila, where it can actively fuck you over with food and public order?

>the point is that in m2 you have no chance of doing anything wrong.

Right - 'cuz you have all the money, and can build all 14 buildings at the same time, right?
Hell no! One at the time - IF you have cash.

So you definitely have to prioritize. What's more important: Army now (so you don't get your a$$ kicked), or money later? Better/more/replenished troops or trade routes?
'cuz you don't have money for both.
>>
>>145481819
But you can build everything in that tier and then just wait for the next to unlock, then build everything there too, and you will have nothing to ever worry about, that's the whole point. You don't have to plan anything and the only "limit" is the money you have.

>>
>>145482060

Sure, over 100 turns of non-stop building will do that - if you have the money. That's normal.

The point here is that Atilla doesn't let you do that - so you bring your butthurt here.
>>
dwarf fort
>>
>>145482121
You give a build order, then while the building is under construction you get more money that you either save up for the next building or use to recruit stuff, it's not hard. And anyway this is not what was being discussed, like at all.
>>
>>145482217

>more choices doesn't mean more complex

Of course not.
Interplay between all the stuff is important - and THAT's on of the Med2's weaknesses.

Attila, we know for a fact that in the RE, certain provinces were known for producing food (Carthage and Egypt) others for raising troops (large chunk of the late period armies were levied from Gaul, the cornutti seniores you can recruit in Attila are actually auxilaries from Gaul)

a city only building 1 building at a time, is really not historical at all btw. And inability to have armies without generals is also historic, I cant recall reading of a single case where an army was led by a simple legionnaire or a velites or something

Because Nobunaga Oda, despite being a ruthless warlord towards his enemies, was actually a pretty OK guy with his vassals and the peasants living under his rule.
Because of that, the peasants spearmen (Yari Ashigaru) fight with twice the ferocity for the warlord who treated them not as cattle but as human beings.

>Wary as fuck about BF 1 after Battlefront
So far I remain wary but optimistic.
Some more gameplay details have surfaced and I like most of them, for example LMGs being so utter shite on the run that you simply can not, no matter how good you are, make it work. Seems they actually want to define weapon roles more clearly this time around. Also apparently no vehicle auto-heal.
Still not a fan of full auto weapons everywhere but those players we saw were utter shite for the most part, that match is not how this game will play like a few weeks after launch.

>full auto weapons everywhere
>ww1

What the fuck?
>>
>>145485535
Exactly my point. There were full autos but only in the later years of the war and they were limited.
The weapons are all correct for the time but this is one of those points were they went with gameplay over authenticity.

I will never buy a Dice game because of BF1. They really shoehorned blacks into everything, although they were a clear minority. There are even blacks who fight for Germany at the western front, which never happened. Millions of people who don't know much about history will get programmed to think that this actually happened. It really sickens me to see this.

well you couldn't hip fire most autos in WWI cos they were mounted on heavy tripods, needed a tank of water running around the barrel and someone to feed a belt into them. Automatics wouldn't have even helped you much seeing as you were shooting across considerable distances and needed good accuracy. Once you were in the trenches it would all be knife work and flamethrowers.

To expand a bit before sacking out:

This is the whole point of Med2 model:
You only get to build 1 building at a time (gotta have some restrictions) so you have to pick carefully what you're going to commit to for the next 6 (8) (10) turns.
If it's a rich, grainy province: fields.
If it's a rich, marketplace province: trade.
Else: warstuff.
And then, in the end, you build all of the stuff you don't need RIGHT NOW.
Sometimes, of course, it's not so simple:
You need a Church RIGHT NOW - or a Bowyer - but, still, it's the same catch.

Germany had colonies in africa but I don't know if there were blacks conscripted there in the first place, the chances of some of them being in europe are slim at best.

Still, the allies found some chinese/koreans manning the defences in normandy (they had been captured in russia and then sent all the way through europe by the germans, can't remember the full story but it was a mess) so who knows.

Germany barely made use of native troops in Africa, let alone in Europe.

France used native troops more but to my knowledge, Britain was the only nation that deployed imperial subject troops into Europe, and even then, only in small numbers and generally in a support role.

France and Germany both had large armies, whilst the professional British army with comparatively tiny, so early in the war they scrambled for any manpower they could get whilst Kitchener's Army was being raised.

The reason the US is in and France isn't is the exact same as there being such a focus on blacks. Target demographics and market reasearch.

I really doubt EA has any sort of political agenda, if WE WUZ KINGS is "in" with their major target demographic right now they'll do it.

>War boosts technological advancement meme

It boosts applied sciences. Actual research though, grinds to a dead halt, meaning you have to play catch-up after the war ends, counteracting the boom you experienced during the war.

At best, the World Wars had no real effect on the overall technological progression of mankind, at worst, they've been a massive net loss due to the vast numbers of men who died who may have actually contributed to science and their respective economies.

How many Einsteins might have been obliterated by shellfire at Verdun, how many Von Brauns froze to death during Op Barbarossa?

The Space Race had a comparable burst of innovation to an industrialised war and didn't cause the deaths of millions, making every innovation a net gain for the species.

The whole 'WW2 invented the microwave and rockets!" thing is just edgy, over-militaristic retards spout to try and justify millions of men dying in droves as somehow beneficial.

Not by what I saw, bad company started the descent, BF 3 quickly failed to stay afloat, then it all went tumbling down. The BF community quickly grew obnoxious because of their eagerness to show how cool and mature it was by not playing COD (while playing a game that went against its roots to be more like COD). I liked both series but I'd rather play COD than BF now.

>Some provinces have Nile flowing through them & Greek philosophy - and some have forests & barbarians ... so, it's all a matter of geography and society
whats this supposed to mean? the point I was making is that, as we can see with the RE, certain regions tended to be specialized, the empire had its bread baskets, its recruitment centres and such. They didnt do all of that in one city, Attila makes you specialize, Med2 lets you build everything

>by a lower rank: Duke or Baron or shit like that
So, a duke or a baron, instead of having a horse and attire worthy of a nobleman, decides to wear peasant garments and arms himself with a pitchfork? In Med2 you can have a stack of lowly troops, and some spear levy ends up being the "general", and thats retarded

I can kinda see limited presence of general lacking armies in Attila framework, since it has integrity system - what they could do is to limit the ability to recruit new general, basically add a requirement to actually garrison an army in a settlement before a new one is acquired, so if your general died in battle or got assassinated, your stack could exist for a while without one, but take some severe penalties to morale and very quickly lose integrity and rebel

that could work, but the ability to have stacks running around without a general permanently is dumb, and is definitely not "more historical"

again, it takes 100 turns to build everything in Med2 - on a single level of building (let alone all 5) - and that's assuming you have the money.

Which you need - not just for new troops, or upkeep of old ones, but for replenishment, too.
So you have to prioritize.

And the whole point of Generals is that you have someone to improve your army's performance with his abilities.
If there's no general in there, army is weaker, prone to desertion and/or bribery.
So, not having general is a weakness to be avoided if possible - Attila just made it so you HAVE to have a General.

As for bodyguard - well, how else would you represent the fact that he's not a 'proper' general?
Give another unit of 1 whole (easily killable) man that takes up another valuable slot? That's fucking stupid.

BF4 obviously.
Even by my rather relaxed standards Hardline and Battlefront do not count as Battlefield games. Also both of them are dead as fuck on PC. Interestingly they're doing just fine on consoles.

>people like that has always been part of BF sadly.
That is one of those things people seem to forget over their nostalgia. The BF community never was this perfect, teamwork oriented bunch they like to imagine. We had just as many retards back then as we do now. Ok maybe not quite as many but you get the point.
It's just that the overall community has changed to not favor a more team oriented approach, the newer Battlefield games have many, many more ways and incentives to play team oriented than the older ones, most people just don't do it.

>it takes 100 turns to build everything in Med2
not really true, meaing that you only unlock higher tier buildings when population reaches a sufficiently high level, so for most of the hundreds of turns you dont have any real choice, its a bunch of worthless buildings and 1 or 2 max of the stuff you actually want to build

>Generals is that you have someone to improve your army's performance with his abilities.
what abilites? the morale boost? thats laughable, the general in m2 early game is an invincible tank, thats the only way he boosts the army, and the chance of actually buying an army out is often close to zero, even when there is no general there

>As for bodyguard - well, how else would you represent the fact that he's not a 'proper' general?
what I am saying is that men wouldn't follow orders of some common bloke or at the very least they would do it, but extremely inefficiently and would constantly be on the verge of a mutiny, one of the r2 loading screens has a quote by some greek about how soldiers will not suffer being led by someone who is not of a noble lord, imagine some lowly spear militiaman trying to convince his soldiers to hold formation, refrain from desertion or looting in a complete absence of a general?

that other anon was saying that the person leading a general less army may be a duke or a baron, but that makes no sense, because if you have a stack of 20 peasants then apparently a baron decided to dress as one

a requirement to have a general is a sensible one

10 to 14 building types * 4 to 10 turns = about 100 turns of constant building with full treasury. Do the math.

Seriously? Invincible tank? You know that one of the major flaws of Med2 is that enemy generals tend to charge your lines alone - and promptly gets killed?

>what I am saying is that men wouldn't follow orders of some common bloke or at the very least they would do it, but extremely inefficiently and would constantly be on the verge of a mutiny
Which is why an army without General is so vulnerable to mutiny/bribes.

Also, there are many examples of 'historical' medieval armies led by men of rank similar to fellows around them - and they all ended as a bloody mess.

And, finally - if you do use all-peasant army in Med2, you deserve everything you get.

So judging from the leaked dlc plans it looks like they're going for breadth rather than depth and getting all the factions in rather quickly.

The main thing I dislike about TWW is how none of the factions besides maybe VC have a comfy start. Especially on Legendary, there's no early game that doesn't involve doomstacks attacking you.

The worst thing about the move away from rome 1 and medieval 2's square-based maps is you can no longer trample troublesome agents but putting units on the 8 squares around them then moving one last unit onto the square the agent is actually on.

Scandza is the best province in the whole world in Attila, with the ports it usually makes twice the money most other provinces make. The food system is fucked up because of the massive penalties of having even -1 in local food supply, so unless you're playing WRE you should always just focus on every province being self sufficient, and the game is usually pretty much over (ie. you own 50% of the map) before Attila even reaches adulthood so the declining fertility doesn't mean anything.

NORTHERN ALPS

2800 HOURS

The sun had barely dusked when a whisper moved along the frozen mountains.Flavias sighed and tried to conceal a shiver in the -20 celsius air. He reached for his lantern to light his way, but found the fuel in the lantern had frozen. "Fucking shit!" he cursed.

Suddenly, Flavias saw motion on the horizon. He quickly peered downrage oholding his trusty Pilum at the ready, complete with gold trimmings and bending spear head.

A mile and a half away, Adalberht Brunhild stood with his longsword. Adalberht is an infamous barbarian who controls 80% of the black market slaves and uses every denarius of blood money to pay for Carthaginian war elephants aimed at key SPQR military installations. The sooner someone puts a Scorpian bolt in this son of a bitch's head, the safer the civilized world will be.

Adalberht released a stream of Germanic profanity, pausing only to drink several bottles of imported wine.

3.6 kilometers away, Flavias began to hold his breath to steady his aim. 2.5 seconds later, he threw his missile.

Adalberht's head simply exploded, like a grape hitting the pavement. He was dead before he hit the ground.

Flavias took out his his whistle. "This is Eagle's Shadow, come in Imperium's Nest."

"Eagle's Shadow, this is Imperium's Nest. Can I get a legio on that triarii."

"triarii has been phalanxed. I repeat, triarii has been phalanxed, over."

"ave ceasar. Proceed four miles north for extraction."

Flavias lowered his arm and grinned.

"Shit happens when you lose you head."

How the fuck do you attack capitals?

If the enemy isn't sitting on them with a doomstack, they've got absolutely retarded garrisons. Or both.

Drakenhof is the fucking worst. Undead never crumble when they've got that morale buff, the walls massively reduced your ability to deal with them at range, and you can't even climb up without getting a stat nerf.

I managed to take it, but I had three times as many men, and lost twice as many as they did.

Undead are just a pain in general. Attrition and massive corruption penalties just slow any invasion down, their economy is retarded strong is the AI's hands, and they just run to a graveyard whenever they lose and spawn 10+ units in a stack that you murdered last turn.

I always wondered how the AI loses to them, and now I know. It's because they're a massive pain to deal with.

The best way to counter that inevitable betrayal is by commiting it yourself first.

I target towers first, and set up so only one or two can shoot at me. I also build siege towers just to use as shields.
>>
>>145507492
Towers have a very narrow range of fire at their base. If you position your troops very close to the walls in between towers they won't be able to target you. However this obviously puts you in range of whatever is on the walls.
>>
>>145507492
(not him)
Deploy all your troops in one side (only one tower can target you) or hidden in a forest, to come when towers are dealt with, then focus on that one tower and once dealt with, you have a safespace from where to you can safely nuke the remaining towers/walls and climb, even better, since you are on one side, you can't get surrounded

Do note that one rocket battery has enough rockets for one and a half towers, more or less
