Fucked up my legendary campaign by letting Vamps prosper for 60-70~ odd turns as I dealt with Chaos Invasions. Didn't know that Archaon et al keep respawning. Fighting a two front war was too tedious so I savescummed back to turn 60.

Does anyone else find that enemy units in Attila can sort of predict and preempt your orders on the battle map? I've had this happen a few times, for example when I send cavalry after lone missile units. So long as the cavalry are moving to a location (by right-clicking on the ground), even if it's in the direction of the enemy, the archers won't react until the cavalry are very close. But if I right click to attack, even if I'm very far away, it's almost like the AI has inside knowledge of my orders so he will always retreat them or move up some spearmen to cover them or something.

Ignore iron rock. Take red fang and karak azul settlements in the south. This will give you good diplomatic relations with the top knots, while also directing their attention towards the dwarves their enemies in the south melt away.

On one of Darren's streams he was talking about how they actually do listen to a lot of the feedback. They got a lot of flak for releasing Atilla DLC so quickly, so they are waiting for a bit. He also said they expected a lot more talk about allowing mod tools, which might lead to them not doing it in the future because of a lack of feedback

Legendary campaign, turn 82. This was really easy and I've more or less won already. It was also extremely tedious

Sent Karl into Sylvania on turn 65~ with a single stack of 5 greatswords, 4 xbow, 1 handgun, 2 mortar, 2 demigryph, 1 reiksguard: I was able to defeat at least 9 stacks including rebels because:
>vamp counts never amassed their forces and attacked me 1 stack at a time

Someone has never played Shogun 2, where Ikko Ikki and Oda have a tendency to just spew units from absolutely nowhere, when they definitively can't afford having all those units and just roll over the opposition.

Although Warhammer's nonsense of throwing free XP at enemy LL's is bullshit. Thorgrim Grudgebearer being level 16 by turn 12 is absolute bullshit.

Will there ever be another TW youtuber like Volound? That shit was autistic to watch but his fucking Otomo campaign was absolutely radical.

Happens in all the game. Recently played a Rise of the Samurai campaign, the AI barely upgraded any of their provinces. By around turn 120 I took the Hojo main province and the goldmine was still at BASE level, they just cheat income and don't bother with anything else.

So I had a strange dream last night I was in Arizona on a farm, and on this farm I found a pet varghulf pupper, looked like pic attached and was running all over the place. It bit my hand and it had a really powerful bite, but I wasn't in too much pain

I wake up and >tfw no pet varghulf

You need a ton of research anyways to actually be able to build the specific mines so trade is really the only feasible option at the beginning.

Still haven't found out where you can actually build the silk spinner.

And you can still trade.

Yea the mod overall isnt finished.
Some factions have 30-40 units, others have 10.
Thats why I play Kislev instead of Bretonia.

Hot damn, it feels good to be back in the saddle again.

>it's a "AI gives you a defensive siege you'll stomp them in" episode

>>145922150
More than that. A lot of factions don't get diplomats or merchants. A lot of buildings are fucked up; there are farms that give +0 food, the costs and time to build swings back and forth as you go up the chain, and the armor and weapon-smiths are worthless for some factions and most units. Mercenaries aren't available at all, and the vast majority of resources on the map are worthless unless they are gold, where they give massive payouts.

I have faith though, the mod team seems very receptive to feedback, and the spawn scripts were removed after the last patch so that that anon talking about the Vampires and Skaven was a willy.

>>145923084
It has a manpower system.
1 Round is 1 month.
How fast do you think people can fuck/train?
Be glad that manpower splits into Samurai/Ashigaru.

>It's top knotzs spam savage orc hordes game

Can the player even get those fuckers himself or is it just some CA brainfart to make the orc early game annoying?

>>145923293
What do months have to do with anything, you just get a hardcap on units which you can build up by getting more dojos/encampments and castles.

>>145923376

You can in certain regions. You're generally better off with regular orcs though.

>>145923264
Makes sense for Orcs to not have diplomats/merchants but I get that thats an issue.

I figured the shit with the buildings is intended, but I wondered about that myself too.
If we talk about cost already, the economy is completely fucked.
Its entirely arbitrary how much units cost.
Reiksguard cost the same as Chaos Warriors and wipe the floor with them.
Farms giving 0 food could be related to fertility i thought?
Besides, farms give money, fishing villages give food.
And armor/weaponsmiths were useless for many units in vanilla too, you cant upgrade maces for example.

But mercenaries are available?

And the ressource part isnt true.
Its the same in vanilla, the further away a ressource is from you, the more you get, try those warpstones, those blue gem-mines, or wizard towers in araby. Old-ones ruins are a lot too.

I think im not using the patch, because VC/Skaven still spawn stacks for me.

>Greenskins get confederation and good diplomatic options, granting them free provinces every now and then on top of having free waaagh armies and the awesome underground stance
>Dwarves get the same kind of deal but with no waaagh and lots of income instead
>Empire also have the same thing
>Chaos start with plenty of shit ennemies but quickly ends up with an incredible amount of money from loot and the whole north as an ally
>VC is hated by absolutely everyone, is surrounded by ennemies, has no confederation options, suffer attrition whenever they move one or two province away from home and have to kill 2/3 of the map

I feel like they got screwed...

>>145923535
this
Savage orcs are good for hitting flanks but they die easier than regular big 'uns

>>145923465
It takes a more realistic approach and prevents the AI with a single city to shit out 2 stacks.
It forces you to plan your armies better.
Just build Dojos you peasant.

>>145923975
I'm just saying that ingame months have nothing to do with your number of recruits. It doesn't prevent the AI from stacking up either, just earlier I fought two single province guys with 1.5 stacks each.

Why did they change the voice over for the Total Warhammer Cinematic Trailer? The original dude sounds much better than the chick. She sounds like some generic she-elf giving a background story like in Lord of the Rings.

>artillery can shoot in defensive sieges if they are placed waaay back unless they are catapults/mortars

goddamn these fights just got a bazillion times even more easier

>>145924358
1.5 stacks is manageable with 1 province, but thats it, especially if he has a Dojo.

>>145922618
You guys have reawakened my sleeping inner samurai, what mods do you guys use with this, or should I just be using MoS? I've never played it before.

So what am I supposed to do as Chaos? I just destroy the Varg and awakened like 4 tribes but they are breaking their military alliance with me?

>>145924471
I just wish there was a decent overview of how many you can recruit in total. Hate these 0.25 increases.

on a 1 for 1 battle on equal footing, how many losses should I expect a basic Dwarf unit against a basic Orc Boyz unit?

>>145915663
Kill heteros

>>145925361
That is completely irrelevant and nobody will be able to tell you that.
Flanking matters, buff from LL's, stamina, hill advantage etc.

>>145925273

Ignore the north and just plow south. Alternatively, awaken a tribe and than immediately attack it again to make it your vassal. This will stop them from fighting each other.

>>145925538
this tbqh

when is a dwarf warriors unit ever realistically going to sit and 1v1 an orc boyz to death

>>145925609

didn't even think about that, dang now they might be too powerful haha

>>145923745
I'll look into the money thing, I didn't see anything about it in the building description. I also thought fertility only related to money, not growth effects.
Armor was relevant for tons of units in vanilla, most units would tell you what armor type they could upgrade to. Very few do in this mod.
Sorry, there are some mercs in the Empire/human lands. The vast majority of them are not in yet and they're half of the Chaos factions' rosters.
I know what I say about resources, they all got a flat buff in the patch, but I played Tomb Kings, and old-one ruins could give me 30 or 40 gold and the gold mines in the mountains next to them would net 200 easy

Are there any must-have mods right now? Not looking for anything too game changing like Radious or something. Suppose I could just check the workshop, but figured I'd ask too.

what even killed mannfred?

>>145933973
Front line should be zombies

Flanks should have everything else in it

Var should have been used to kill his Crypts, once they were tied down by zombies/skeletons

Zombies/skeletons are literally just meat (or bone) shields used to buy you time, they serve no other purpose.

Also if you are playing on hard/very hard/legendary and didnt turn down combat difficulty, you should do that.

Yes, I'm playing on Legendary.

I redid the battle not realizing how weak these initial units were. Instead of having a back line I just made 1 line deployment and then did my best to flank. Won a pyrrhic victory that way.
