I'd like to see a Minotaur Lord and Bray Shaman Lords at some point, and maybe Chaos God variations of the Gors (Slaangors, Pestigors etc.).

>>148636951
Exposed hips is the best. On mikos with wide hips.

How do you play Chaos? I try awakening the tribes but everyone keeps sending doom stacks to wipe them out before they can spread. Also is it normal to always be in a money deficit each turn because they get so much from sacking?

>>148637267

>>148638656
can the encampments ambush too?

>>148638586
>Then all your generals/heroes/etc get bopped by level 30 ninjaassassins.

I never had this problem. I was always ahead with high lvl agents. Sabotage is easy levels. It can be a problem when playing chaos because their agents suck at agent vs agent.

POOPOO PEEPEE
12 DAYS TILL DLC

What are opinions on the price of the DLC?

question, would you break the games lore just to add lords and such?

got into a argument with a friend reading of a wiki list of named females, chunk of them were either dead, had not fought or their factions weren't ingame yet

Im going off the idea that CA is sticking to lore and dont really want to break lore, but I may be wrong

so what are your thoughts?

>>148640494
Slavposter maybe. We might have an outbreak.

>>148640780
I hope that we get a hero/lord builder in the future, since a big part of the tabletop game is also making up your shit

>>148640370
And what does it matter?
Oh no the canon says we must lose this game!
Better not have fun anymore ever.

>>148640780
Azhag is suppose to be dead already according to Lore but he's in.

I think they're trying to keep close to the lore.

>>148640894
Honestly since TW:WH is so battle-focused we should've beeen able to outfit entire armies, not just the heroes. But it was probably out of scope for CA.

I think they said they are doing their own thing. (With the ever-watcher it should be obvious). They are being careful though which is fine.

>>148640894
On the topic of TT, how is it usually viewed to make your own lords? Like, lords on par with Grimgor, Mannfried, Franz and such. In non competitive play of course.

The perfect ASOIAF game already exists.

It's called Crusader Kings 2

There's even a ASOIAF mod out for it.

ASOIAF is about characters, politics and setting, things that are secondary, at best, to the Total War series.

ASOIAF is a shit fit for the Total War franchise.

Vampire counts income is reskinned and renamed Gold, and works exactly the same (yes, you can bribe the dwarfs with "Dark Magic"), however your main source are the main buildings

For public order, you get a big bonus when corrupted, and a penalty when not, it's the "religions" of this game

And always build a balefire in the province capital (or at least, 1 balefire in each province), and focus your starting research on the book of Blood

>If you like playing medieval-themed video games, you might not be just some harmless nerd — you might be a nerd who is also kind of a white supremacist.

>At least that’s the opinion of Victoria Cooper, a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Leeds in England, who presented a paper titled “Playing Politics: Exploring Nationalism and Conservatism in Fantasy Video Games” at the International Medieval Congress earlier this month.

>“The Middle Ages is a space where white supremacy is legitimized,” Cooper said, according to an article on Medievalists.net. “The maintenance of white privilege. The gamer community use ‘historical facts’ to legitimize this kind of literacy.”

They determine if you hit. All the damage in the world doesn't help if you don't hit. There's diminishing returns for having a lot more than the enemy though, so you should aim to have a bit more than the enemy, and focus on other stuff after that.

IIRC Warcraft was supposed to be a Warhammer game but GW didn't like what Blizzard made, so they pull back their license. Blizzard created Warcraft instead with the scrap of their project. So technically it's the opposite.

Why is their no insectoid faction in warhammer? Shit would be cash and we would have something to war with the skaven in the under-empire.

>>148650927

TW is already shitting all over their canon.

>>148650994

2/3 of WH world is not even touched in canon. I'm sure there are some weird insects somewhere.

>>148650992
I wish Arch would kill himself. There's not a single redeeming quality about the man.

>>148650994
There probably is a race of sentient insects somewhere in the old world, they're just not prominent enough to have a faction.

>>148650994
There is (in 40k)

>>148640779
A bit high, but the budget might be higher too, the race is way more different and must need more work. I just want them to finish the rooster of Beastmen (lacking some good and iconic stuff) and Brettonia while we're at it. I'll still buy it tho

>>148650553
It's a well known fact mate.

>>148650927

Kislev is already plenty developed anyways. It has entire books in RPG.

And pretty much canon units roster.

Most shitters are complaining about how costly it is without considering that it's essentially the same amount of content as previous DLCs that were about the same cost, nevermind all the new animations and shit they had to throw together for Beastfags

>>148652783

Except what people are complaining about is that A) The roster is missing many of the iconic and actually interesting units and B) much of the price is a shitty mini-campaign that people have no interest in, but is being forcibly bundled.

>>148652967
>many

It's literally missing a pair of dogshit giant models made in 8th edition in a painfully desperate attempt to increase sales, which obviously didn't work because they ended up shitcanning the entire franchise.

The only missing unit that actually matters are harpies, and that's probably because they didn't want Beastmen to have flying monsters since that's the VC schtick.

>>148653274
>it's not worth adding because I say so

don't use that as an excuse, it probably took them 10 minutes to do.

>>148652241
It's not half bad at helping kill tough single targets though. The high mass lets it get through large units to reach the target, and escape easily if it becomes a target and takes too much damage. But it's too expensive for what it does. It needs a buff or price nerf.

I thoroughly enjoy, even late game, an army comprised of mainly zombies (atleast 1/3 of my army is zombies) Grave guard or crypt horrors to back the zombies up, and alot of cavalry to form a undead hammer and anvil.

I find it effective against mostly anyone but Chaos with their hellcannons often killing 10-20 grave guard a shot. To me, its alot more fun than playing VC with just an army of GG and other late game units.

No technological units for Bretonnia if they follow the lore. And Luminarch are pretty godlike against monsters and lords. Sniping Mannfred all day every day.

>>148655274
The Zombies formation is more spread out, and are more often available in the raise dead menu.

Ive never actually tried it with skelly warriors however, so maybe it will work better. But for a unit whose only purpose is do die and be replaced,ill take the cheaper more plentiful one.

>>148658512
Who are immortalz?

You mean his unit of black orks?

You kill the rest of his army with quarrelers then surround them with your infantry, hitting them from all sides at once. Black orks will cut through anything short of ironbreakers pretty quickly so skirmish down any missile units they have then surround them.

>>148658512
How early game are we talking about? Any non-quarreler range unit is best.

What should I use against VC as the empire in the early game? My swordsmen and spearmen take a long time to bring down even zombies or skellies
Should I just snipe their lord and buttfuck them with cavalry?

>>148660645
Don't dwarfs get magic weapons for their lords? I think they do. Also, the banshee isn't that effective against dwarfs with high defense, so swamping it with a good unit ensures it won't do too much damage..

>>148660782
Yeah lord sniping and breaking them with cavalry are your best options.
It's really hard to lose against AI vampires, but you'll always take reasonable casualties along the way.

>>148644616
I always found small settlements easier to defend since they typically only have one or two choke points where you can just stick a couple units of pikes and win every encounter.

How does castle defend a city if it's up there over the hill?

In Multiplayer? only Thorgrim has magic weapon by default

Flame cannons and Irondrakes should melt the deathstar and you should have enough firepower to pincushion the Horrors faster than a necromancer can heal, bonus points for dwarfs taking 25% less damage from wraiths

Also, runesmith's magic may do some nasty damage

>>148637212

I had one fight a while back where Mannfred kept spirit leeching the general, forcing him to retreat.

Mannfred and a banshee proceeded to run rampant through the army, since there was basically nothing that could stop them. Then the crypt horrors arrived and it all got worse.

Pain in the ass. Wish I'd had Franz. He and Deathclaw could have ripped through the vampires like wet paper.

>>148638465

If the AI keeps sending stacks to wipe out awakened tribes: I found it best to give up on the whole mechanic. Having allied turf to run to for heals is nice but not worth the headache of constantly attacking the same norsca settlements ad infinitum.
