>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

My guess is they'll include him later on when the skaven are included. read his novel recently and his biggest conquest is driving skaven out of the higher levels of karak eight peaks and repelling dwarfs.

Beastmen are a gory race, akin to the Orgres that they eat fucking everything, human flesh being a delicacy (unless you are a minotaur then its everything).

Even their fallen leaders are eaten with the successor gorging on the heart in order to gain his master's strength.

I really hope CA gives the horns in the charge animations.

How do people deal with unit upkeep on the chaos campaign? You have to endlessly raid and destroy settlements to pay off your units, and when you encamp you barely get any healing whatsoever to the point where it's better to trash your units and recruit new ones. It's infuriating.
>>
>>148106151
>How do people deal with unit upkeep on the chaos campaign? You have to endlessly raid and destroy settlements to pay off your units
Yes.
>>
>>148106193
My point is you destroy and destroy to try to deal with the ridiculous upkeep while at the same time losing units and barely gaining any back while encamping, being you have to literaly be destroying a settlement every 3 turns or so. It just seems unbalanced, I wish you referred faster when encamped.
>>
>>148106349
Make more armies, destroy more settlements
>>
>>148106443
So I have to pay more upkeep? It's taking 2 full stacked armies just to lay waste to about half of the settlements south of the waste, so many are 16 garrisoned. Probably going to back to playing VC.

You're a horde faction, being in negative income is normal.

not same anon through sacking bonuses you can have an outrageous amount of money. In one of my chaos campaigns I have 1M at the end from getting +30k from a fresh sack.

That might be my problem, I always raze after I sack. Might try another chaos campaign where I only raze factions I want to destroy.

Is how the game is being made. CA will use the most known TB units because thats what sells.
>>
>>148078262
Yes, and I feel really ambivalent about it

It has some really neat units, but also some really shit units. Normally you could just choose to not recruit them, but it also adds some units to garrisons (which also annoyingly pushes other units out of the garrison (since it's capped at 20), such as the generals from http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=716378810 )

So meh, I wouldn't play without it, but I wish I did

Is it just me or do Greatswords feel a little over hyped in campaign. Maybe it's a playstyle thing but pure GS melee feels like it gets shot up pretty bad by AI archer heavy compositions.

Main army is like 6 crossbows, 1 hand gunners, 2 artillery, 6 greatswords, 1 Halb, 1 Reiksguard, Franz, Witchhunter, and a light wizard. Trying to use dwarfy tactics of range domination with a net to freeze an enemy to bombard. Finding myself wishing I had a frontline with shields/irondrakes.

How should I adjust this composition? (I've got access to basically everything)

Hey guys. I'm trying to get Total War: Warhammer for a price and I found it for like, 20 bucks on this site called Kinguin but apparently it's kinda shady.

Have you struck any deals you'd like to share?

Just pay full fucking price for the game like everyone else you money grubbing parasite.
>>
>>148111565
you are fighting in a defensive style while using offensive shock troops as a frontline, of course they will get picked apart by ranged units

you can either try to take out the enemy range with your own or just bully them Karl and reksguard, I'd also drop the number of crossbows to 4 and take 2 extra gunners
>>
>>148112038
That's what I figured. I guess my real quandry is how to build a defensive oriented empire force with late game units. There just isn't a defensive late game empire melee unit it feels like.

I suppose I can just use spears with shields for it though. Swapping to more hand gunners sounds like a good idea. Switching to more cav for hit and run / disruptions likely a good idea too.

Thanks.

Not sure how to complete the trio, you could take a High Elf qt and just gag her so she can't be a pretentious cunt. But they might draw parallels to the Phoenix Guard and view it as "honourable" or some shit.
So I dunno, dress her in a clown costume maybe? Not very hot that way. unless that's your thing

I play to experiment with different builds, mainly for fun. I've found i perform better when i simply reduce my unit groupings to 3-4. I could get better at micro or i could just micro less.

The more you play the more you'll figure out the cunty popular spam builds and how to counter them. mass flying vc is my most hated atm, fuckers are hard to rout when all the land units are taken out.

The book that says that killing unbelievers is a-ok too.

You didn't get this straight, like at all. There are rampant extremists around now because they were helped, not targeted, in the first place. In other places there were a number of factions involved from various religious backgrounds as is to be expected, but they're not relevant to why islamic extremists are rampant now.

If you do this instead of awakening the tribes, you don't have to deal with the utter shit fest that is dealing with all the awakened tribes. Meanwhile Vargs and Skaelings live peacefully together and spew out stacks to eat the empire.

Most of those religions are peaceful at heart or have other refuges of resistance.
The peoples of India had Pan-Indian Nationalism to rally behind as their shield of independence.
China was never really that religious in the first place, rather philosophical mostly, and they had to deal with the whole decade long civil war thing, after which they had Communism to rally behind, which is already in its very theory anti-capitalist and anti-imperialist, two things Europe were known for across the world at the time.
In Japan literally millions of people killed and died for their God Emperor, and their religion/philosophy isn't even very violent.

Arabs and to some degree Sub-Saharan Africans only have Islam.
This stems from one of the problems that Islam has in the modern world: It's all consuming.
Islam, unlike Christianity provides a culture you must conform to, laws you must abide by and never lost the violence Christianity and Judaism once had.
Whereas in Europe, the Renaissance and Enlightenment movement happened, most philosphical, peaceful and scientifically curious movements were wiped the fuck out by the Altaic and Mongol hordes invading, and those that survived were violently repressed as heretics, so they never progressed as we did.
Those movements allowed us to progress past the simply barbaric bronze age and iron age laws that were laid out in the bible, but they never had them.

Many nations resisted the West, but they all had some common cause, some cultural identity to rally behind as their shield.
All Arabs ever had after the Mongols fucked their shit up is Islam.
Islam whose most violent submovements were given weapons and training by the US and USSR and then simply left to do as they please after the Cold War ended, making sure the peaceful elements had no chance to really resist on their own.

The world isn't black and white nigga don't talk about shit you have no idea of.

Not like the first Khalifat turned its sights right on the ERE and conquered Spain and almost got all the way to France. Not like they wiped out the ERE and then held the Balkans for hundreds of years. Not like they came all the way to Vienna, twice, and held considerable territory in the mediterranean for a long time aswell. No sir, no attempts to take Europe whatsoever, it's all "eurocentric propaganda" :^)


>assbackwards primitive fucks" part doesnt hold up either considering the moorish state in Iberia was wealthier then most euro states in early medieval period

Won't find me denying that, but post-Baghdad they had literally nothing worth talking about in terms of science or philosophy, and it's still debatable how much of the anti-scientific sentiment is actually the mongols fault instead of Islam.
>>
>>148124035

No, never, It was never my point to say that either, its just that the west DID play a part in creating extremism today.

are you seriously implying that christianity does not provide a culture? how many people named widukind do you know? it absorbed elements of local pagan religions and cultures but it also supplanted and replaced many local traditions, Christianity absolutely did provide its own culture and even laws too, its just that the western world moved beyond those laws. Torah is even more strict in terms of "providing culture" and laws then Christianity

its just good old fashioned expansionism, they targeted the wealthy regions for conquests, there isn't some religious purpose behind it. Are are you going to call the Roman conquests in the east - christian expansionism? or the great games? or the colonialism?

>>148124316
>anti-scientific sentiment is actually the mongols fault instead of Islam
its only somewhat the mongol fault, basically Baghdad had a very strong sect of Islam that believed that the way to know god is through studying his creation, so they were quite supportive of sciences

Mongols didn't object to that in any way, they simply sacked the city because thats what they do. With the city gone the sect was largely gone too, and the religions influence went from the persians to the arabs, and its the arabs who were extremely dogmatic and literal in their interpretation of their texts

I'm implaying that Christianity isn't the be-all-end-all of European culture.
National cultures exist. Regional cultures exist.
Nationalism is a stronger force than religion in Europe, and has been since the French revolution now.

Islam IS their culture. Nearly all of it.
Tell me the difference between Bahraini and Qatari culture.
Tell me the difference between Syrian culture and Iraqi culture aside from a slightly different accent.

The only real outliers are the Maghrebis, especially Morocco, because they absorbed a lot of the Berber and Christian Iberian and French culture over the centuries.
But despite this, it is still illegal to give your child a Berber name in Morocco, only good old fashioned Islamic Arab names.

The point is that Islam is all Arabs have aside from Western cultural influence. And when people think the West is fucking them over, they will resent it.
They will resent its influence on their language, culture and life.
They will reject that influence
And what remains is nothing but anger, resentment and Islam. And we know what happens next.

They consider themselves to be the children of Chaos, and pretty much worship them just by existing. Headstones are also focal points where they make sacrifices and have nonspecific 'orgies' and their shamans commune with chaos.

They most likely get more advanced ambush tactics and vanguard deployment, low armour but high damage and HP units. Bigger common units with smaller numbers and likely an emphasis on charges and morale shocks to compensate for low numbers. As far as unit composition goes I assume they are more similar to greenskins having low armour (other than high armour Black Orks equivalent) and high damage but differ in that they have high HP and better morale to compensate low numbers. They have quite a few ways in which they can differ mechanically. I'd love if on the campaign map you could overcome the low numbers weakness by raiding villages and getting captives to convert into beastmen that increase your unit sizes and replenish your forces a lot faster, but your standard unit replenishment is bar non-existent. So similar to chaos they have to raid often but for replenishment and increasing the horde rather than income wise, which means they can lay low for a while if they've taken a beating and it takes a long while of minimal presence to slowly build up your horde.

We all know that beastmans gonna be shitty faction, because of several reasons:

They gonna be horde just like chaos. I don't think they will bother with religious sites for beastmans or camps.

They gonna rely on ambush strategy like Suebi in Rome 2 and we all know that AI never ever fucking walks near forests to be ambushed. So this style of gameplay fucked up.

They probably gonna be shitty morale light armor units with high charge high hp and shitty low attack with probably Berzerk Mode.

So basicly we just have new Models of Orkz/Chaos hybrid playstyle faction, which is sucks.

>>148135352
If you put a weak army in a seemingly exposed position and hide your main body in the woods the AI will still almost always go for your shitty army and get ambushed. Try using your brains once in a while.
>>
>>148135352
>AI never ever fucking walks near forests to be ambushed

I get an "AMBUSH DISCOVERED OH DANG SON" message at least once every couple of game turns. The AI in TWW has a fucking killboner for ambush battles, and Beastmen will probably have the advantage because they're in the woods to begin with.
>>
>>148135372

I hope they will redo the hero mechanics by makign armies have special hero slots instead of having heroes take unit slots, that way you could have kemmler with Krell automatically and have Gotrek&Felix be a single hero that just takes hero slots/points instead.

Upgrade your existing horde infrastructure, almost all buildings reduce upkeep.

Sack everything, raze rarely. With multiple warbands I sack something almost every turn.

Early game rampant sacking gives six-digit treasuries that you use to fun armies.

SACK SACK SACK SACK SACK, raiding isn't that great on Chaos you have to hit the settlements, prioritize income techs.

For instance in the Baersonling area I sack those territories a dozen times each bouncing between Kraka Drak and Kislev (where I also sack mercilessly).

You always operate at deficit but sacking is the answer, do it more.
>>
>>148143524

Just wait till your overflowing with cash and then don't worry about the negative income per turn. I got a nice system where my main army sacks a city and I let the lower level lords and armies follow up and raze the settlement.
>>
>>148143740
I guess it does, but this is Warhammer, you can always improvise around with the units. I put my monster units or any leftover cavalry/spear into the flank.

If you're VC, you wont have to worry about formation since they do not have ranged units anyway, but always good to have fell bats stop cavalry charges or flanking units before committing another unit to attack them.

So, I'm playing greenskins. I managed to murder the stunties around turn 20 due to some lucky things happening, so dwarfs haven't really been a porblem other than some minor holds. Currently I'm nearing turn 50, with only about 4 top-knotz settlements to take and then to grab the 3 settlements of my crooked-moon allies, either through confederating or violence, I haven't decided yet.

My question is, once I have my little badlands corner for myself, what do I do? Do I got north and have myself some mountain scraps with one of the last dwarf holds? West and pillage some human lands? Just do nothing for a bit while chaos fucks the empire?

Chaos will come from the north so if you wanna fight them head up the mountains.

214 turns with this Chaos campaign. It took forever to kill the Empire as they just roamed the map and took ruined settlements to fuck with me.
Also they were in war with dwarfs, which made it easier for me.

Build off the fact that every man in a regiment can fire no matter what.

Have half of your army Riflemen in Guard mode, and behind them enough halberds to cover any flanks or charges.

About 3 or 4 mortar units in the rear to soften up the enemy, and one or two heroes + general to counter-charge the enemy so they're in range for as long as possible.

Make sure to maintain the line of fire of all of your units so they are in the best available positions (That means a lot of micro), and make sure that you take whatever missile-buff upgrades for your generals you can find.

Such is the way of the !Pike & Shotsman.
>>
>>148158489

He's one of the Tomb Kings and sided with Nagash.

He's notable for being the single being in existence that Nagash actually trusts, and for being unceasingly loyal to Nagash, despite possessing free will and being smart enough to not buy into any of Nagash's god pretensions.

He's on roughly the same power-level as Mannfred magically, but he's much smarter. Or at least less over-encumbered by his ego.

You shouldn't let them, simple as that. controlled deployment of your halberds and heroes to positions where that is at risk of happening is required. What's paramount is maintaining the firing rate.

Guns stop shooting, you've lost the battle.
>>
>>148158831

Any of the Nagash novels.

Gotrek and Felix's earlier novels were great. the later ones are more taste dependent, though Felix going full Highlander and marrying the little girl they met in the first few books was quite funny.

There's also the Genevieve series.

The Sigmar novel is also pretty good, since it shows the Empire back when they were pretty much barbarians, and it's interesting to see how their customs altered over time, but still remained true to their core.
>>
>>148159008
I wonder if they are ever going to add the ability to play as different factions within a race. Maybe it doesnt work as well for the empire or dorfs, but for example Moussilion and the Lahmians sound pretty different than the Vampire Counts.

The Empire Omnibus is a great place to start.

It's human focused so it's a good access point to the lore, plus the Empire is the faction the world revolves around most of the time.

It's a collection of short/medium length stories and covers Men interacting with everything from undead, chaos, dwarves etc

One story follows halberdiers, another a warrior priest.

Gives you a good broad look at the world.

That's why the heroes are good, they don't disturb the view of the gunners but they can still still stop the charge of multiple units.

When you only have a single halberd unit deployed in as thin a line as possible, they can stop charges as well as keep the gunners free to fire.

You don't want to envelop the enemy, only stop them so you can keep shooting, like pic related.

>>148159973
I used the tactics when playing as Estalia, so I only fought Greenskins and Humans.

That did mean I fought a lot of Knights and Demi-gryphs though, and the best way to combat that is either to bring one or two cav regiments to protect the flanks, or to stay true to the limited deployment of halberds, if you do that correctly you'll always have some in reserve to protect against that stuff.

Hounds are far faster than most cav, and the AI likes making them actually run round and disengage from fights.

This. It's 40k but it gets the Orc/k mindset perfectly.
>>
>>148161145

But he refuses to admit that there's a massive power gap between him and the ACTUAL most powerful beings.

He spends most of the End Times novels thinking about how he's going to enslave Nagash, when he can't even handle Nagash's massively weaker lieutenant.

And guess what? When Nagash revives, he shits his pants. Then gets used as a bloodbag to revive Vlad, who's basically Mannfred, except with a moral compass and better in basically every single way.

Seriously, look at the way Nagash treats Mannfred (a disposable pawn) and then compare it to how he treats Arkhan (an actually trusted follower) and Vlad (a worthy servant).

He actually makes a deal with Vlad to get his help, and let's Arkhan see him when he's been reduced to his absolute weakest state, where a good necromancer could possibly bind him.

Mannfred, on the other hand, gets sold out the moment he stops being vaguely useful.

>>148161286
The hero units last much longer, but I usually expect the Halberds to last between 1 and 3 minutes, which is usually enough volleys to to wipe away whatever was facing them and more some.

Providing the mortar fire does it's job and so do the rifles, the enemy morale should be in the shitter as the they engage, so even though they outnumber the halberds by usually 1 or two units, they'll fight like shit and generally rout, while the halberds will stay confident.

>also what are your army comps

It differs for each of my armies, but in general it's

1 general
1 captain
4 Mortars
8 Riflemen
2 Grenade Outriders (Breaks up their formations and baits them away from your lines)
OR
2 Knights (Same job as Halberds, but with the extra morale damage of a charge, hit them in the flanks or protect your own).
4 Halberds.

I'd recommend maybe taking 6 rifles and 6 halberds until you get the underlying theory down, but when you proper understand my poor explanations of tactics you can easily route entire enemy armies while only taking a tenth of the casualties.

Greetings my friends, my name is Prince of Makedon.

I train every day with my Kopis. I forged it myself, all steel imported to the Philippines from legendary Macedonian blacksmiths. I mixed the molten concoction with my own true Greek blood and prayers to Ares so that the sword could slice through a thousand persians. I've folded the steel a thousand times, to be sure it never shatters.

Every morning and evening I wrestle with my Megas Alexandros αγαπούν μαξιλάρι in the naked oiled style of true macedonian legends. I weep at the oppressive laws of my country, as my training could be perfected if they allowed the importation of catamites of Greek Blood to my home. Even with this hindrance I may soon feel worthy to wield my sarissa and kopis with pride. I am planning a boat trip to Macedonia itself (now called FYROM, obviously a Greek word meaning strength and glory) so that I may learn from the true legends themselves, even I may be nothing compared to those who toll the same soil the glorious Alexander once stepped on, but I must prevail.

I'm not very unconventional so I doubt I'll come up with them by myself so any tips like

good post

I something stay awake at night thinking about all the amazing cultures that could have came out of the middle east had the mongols not raped their shit, allowing islam to put the nail in the coffin of progress. So much history, so much knowledge, destroyed.

I somehow completely forgot dismounting was even an option, fucking warhammer ruined me

>>148165275
people who tell you to quickly unite Reikland are wrong, it will likely cause the midgets AND marienburg to attack you at the same time and fuck you up, so unless you are willing to make your survival depend on dumb luck, dont rush the conquest, after taking Grunburg or whatever the settlement right next to you is, raise a stack and recruit some cheap spears in it, its just there to dissuade Nulniggers from attacking you

then take the village that is the gateway to bretons, after that sit on your ass untill you have built walls in both of those settlements, from that point onwards you are safe, you should just look for easy expansion opportunities and confederate with whatever province is getting its ass kicked
>heroes
bright wizards are useful, having captains for training your men is good too, priests give massive bonuses to replenishment so keep at least one around on the campaign map to heal people
>campaign map heroes
witch hunters to assasinate enemy agents and priests to replenish your troops

Alright boys, I started my vampire campaign. Just got the sword of unholy power. Von Carstein is about lvl 11 now.

I maxed out the lore of death tree and I was wondering, what I should spec him in now?

I want him to be a beast, so I was wither thinking the red tree or the yellow tree. Any ideas?

You spec him as a melee monster of course. You can use normal lords for red buffs to troops. Mannfred should have your best troops that need the buffs the least anyway.

Just uncanny enough to be disturbing. Shame it's only on the base skellies.
>>
>>148167950
>Shame it's only on the base skellies.
I think the reason for that is the grave guard are actually part sentient so they control their own movements more than skellies who're literally puppets of the necromancer

correct me if I'm wrong
>>
>>148168080

It's something along those lines yeah, but it's a shame. It's a nice little touch that's quicky forgotten about once you advance to Grave Guards.

>>148168290
Are you saying you don't keep several stacks of basic skellies and zombies around after you've started recruiting grave guard armies? You're missing out.

That's right. Zombies are instinctual and animalistic, like the body has just enough magic in it to keep it moving. Basic Skeletons are entirely powered by dark magic. Grave Guard are wights: ghosts possessing their old bodies and being magically enthralled by the necromancer.

I read somewhere earlier in the thread that it's better to have a necromancer with "fiends of the night" perk or some shit and just go 50/50 on dire wolves and fell bats.

That's a pretty rare trait though. Also, no reason you can't have both.

CA won't implement them as they have a no rats policy

When are CA going to fix the Chaos campaign? This is the most frustrating thing I have ever encountered, turns and turns of cat and mouse, the AI constantly resettling territory you've claimed, agent spam, etc. I just ended up quitting because at turn 80 even with 100,000 in bank, I couldn't afford to have a second army of basic chaos warriors alongside my high tier army.

The most retarded thing was when I would attack a Kislev army, they would retreat, and I couldn't reengage them, for three turns before I just gave up. Holy shit does chaos need an ambush stance. AND FUCK me the AI would just abuse ambush even with shitty forces of like ten guys against my hordes. I could never attack them.

I do not think Chaos should start off at war with the Empire. It should be Kislev and Norsca, and then "realm divide" around when the Everwatcher shows up should be when the Empire and whomever unanimously declare war on you. Allowing you to actually push out and do whatever.
