>>149253231
What do you expect? Its an ambush in a super-forest. By Beastmen who don"t even understand the word Artillery

>>149253231
Yes, that's how ambushes work. Have you never fought an ambush battle before?

>>149253231
>Beastmen takes away other factions arty advantage by ambush

Seems fine desu.

>>149253231
That's sort of the point. Although in Napoopan it was super broken because the defender could just grapeshot at point blank immediately so attacking an artillery heavy army in an ambush was kind of redundant.

Will beastmen be able to do normal ambush battles.

Since ambushes are a big part of tactics for Wood Elves, I wonder how that'll play out. A bunch of archers don't exactly want to start next to the enemy in heavy underbrush.

Why isn't Joey researching?

>>149253450
She's not very good at the game.

This fat bitch is bad

>>149253446
You can probably get ambushed as beastmen.

>>149253450
They're not gonna play the campaign that long, so it's not like it matters.

>>149253446
Theay don't seem to have the stance.

was lightning strike right solution to the 5 full banner stacks AI loves so?

>>149253448
Possibly some sort of elevation mechanic? Where the branches and trees in the undergrowth function as semi-walls - meaning the enemy can't attack directly from the front and has to go around to the sides.

This dark moon mechanic is just a test run for wood elf seasons, isn't it?

They can do so much with Wood Elves if they get it right. Beastmen basically play like Chaos Orcs, but I expect a lot of unique mechanics for the elves.

>>149253821
They'll be in before tomb kangz.

>>149253821
Wood Elves are so obviously next. Beastmen's reason for being first is because they are so easy to put in without any major work, and also because Bretonnia/Wood Elves' part of the world is empty without goats to hunt.

It'll be cool if Wood Elves had some sort of season mechanic.
Even better if the campaign in general had seasons CA fucking shits

Those siege towers are pretty gnarly.

>>149253831
Grimgor is base 450.

But in terms of hero units that is the highest edging out the exalted hero by 5, but EH is not listed as a AP hero but GB isn't shielded

Get steam; easier updates & mods.

So guys, did the stream convince you to buy the DLC? I'm disappointed and won't buy it because the map seems small as fuck and the campaign seems to have no replay value. also beastmen always ambush on wood path maps, which makes fight repetitive.

i just preordered call of the beastmen because joey is so cute =)

So when I take a mount for my Lords, or heroes, does it cap, reduce, or buff that heroes stats? Thereby making some choices completely worthless?

>>149260828

Mostly buff the stats, but they become bigger targets, so more units that can shoot at it and hit him/more units that can hit him in a melee blob.

Also anti large rules start to count, so spearmen and halbediers get more effective vs lords.

>>149254508
I'm like you. It's my GOTY so far.

Holy shit, why does this game even have workshop support? None of them are worth getting. Most are just crappy recolors of units anyway.

Greymarket keys are pretty funky.

>>149261304
Because some of them are actually worth getting.
Mod to modify the blood so that it actually is gory and the blood stay longer/forever on the battlefied.
Mod that modifies the unit balance so that the battle will last a bit longer
Mod that modifies the magic to not become totally crappy
Mod that reskin units so that they do not all look samey and boring (undead moussilon)
Mod that actually creates new units based on lore for the southern realm instead of the same units as empire.

>>149261304

Pleb taste mods aside like Radious and No Floppy Hats, the biggest problem I see is the lack of models the game currently has and the absence of a model importer; most modders are forced to reuse the same assets over and over again which makes it hard to make anything that stands out.

I guess dynamic events and emergent factions are hard to code into the mod, so a lot of the stuff from M2 (like crusades, the rise of the Mongols etc.) would be impossible to implement. So they just picked a start date where all of the factions were already present in some way. Although starting in 1095 with a Crusader horde faction near Clermont would be fucking amazing.

>>149266960
But black war priest looks more badass than this shit.

>>149266838
For me, its not making it easy to steamroll. It just feels more natural that factions hate yours because of different goal or previous aggressions and not because oh shit you have more cities than we do.

Sure, it makes diplomacy somewhat easier with the same race, but the diplomacy was kind of easy to begin with anyway.

Sorry, assumed that from it taking two turns to recruit thunderers. If you were sitting there waiting for a building then you still dun goofed, you need your armies to be more active than that. And you only need an army to have a toe in the relevant territory to be able to recruit, they don't have to be in a settlement.

Step 1: Unify Reikland fast
Step 2: Maintain a higher strength rating then Marienburg
Step 3: Sit an army in whatever that town is that borders Marienburg
Step 4: Wait
Step 5: By turn 20 or so Marienburg declares war on Nordland or Middenheim
Step 6: Let the Marienburg army waltz off and siege the city right away.
Step 7: Watch as they get rekt by Nordland and Middenheim

There ya go, if you're quick you can snatch the Wastland away from Nordland.

1. click the hero card
2. right click on the ground
3. realize you're retarded

>>149279208

Click the hero's unit card while your army is selected, you can then direct it on the map and giving it any order will have it leave the army.

>>149279208
You select them, then right click on the map. You can tell you have them selected because your courser changes to the transfer courser.

Dawi are so boring once you know what to do, nothing can really challenge you ever.

I'm pretty sure if you disband a hero or lord, you can re-recruit them after a few turns. Much like when they get wounded.

>>149279796

What the fuck, man. I have literally never had the greenskins leave the badlands in my empire campaigns. Even the ones that start next to marienburg don't do shit and get wiped out in the first 5 turns.

>>149279796

the method I used for playing empire on legendary was to capture the first secessionist city of grunburg and then camp and wait for someone to fuck up.

The problem with marienburg is they will jump you and once you defeat them you will have encountered the norscans who will gun it for your ass.
