Accidently posted in ded thred

Does anyone else autoresolve their way through the chaos invasion?

Especially as the VC I have a really hard time bringing down doomstacks of chosen, chaos knights, and 4 headcanons per stack. Even when the odds are 75% in my favor I'll lose 3/4 of my army fighting armies with less than 500 guys in it. If those battles were fun at all I would actually play them. I wish chaos armies had more infantry instead of 1 lord, 2 heros, 4 cannons, a unit of infantry and the rest cav.

You can't autoresolve a lot of stuff as VC because your units count for crap in autoresolve. Blood Knights and fliers are your best bet for the annoying WoC units, giants are probably going to be your biggest concern though.

REPOSTING from old bread

So I just had a battle where THORGRIM fought my level 1 vampire lord leading an army, and he was reinforced by ungrim

Their army comp was weird

Ungrim brings

x5 Cannon units x1 Grudge thrower
x4 gyrocopters (Thank god with steam and not brimstone)

x1 slayers
x1 long beard GW
x1 dorf warrior with great weapons

Thorgrims (lv29) is

x3 Grudgethrowers
x2 gyrocopters (steam guns)
x3 thunderers
x1 long beards, slayer, dorf warriors with great weapons
x2 Qllers

My lineup was a full end-tier vamp lineup

x4 grave guard
x4 grave guard /w great weapons
x4 Blood Knights
x1 Wight KANG
X1 vampire only with Invocation of nehek
x1 vampiress
x4 crypt horror


Ungrim enters from the left, thorrgim is positioned on the right. Ungrims 6 cannons will tear me up so I need to kill them before he repositions. Cue the charge of the blood knight brigade. 6 cannons focus firing wipes out one of my bloodknights to a quarter strength, and savages another. I manage to charge just before they unleash another volley and mop up all the artillery with my WIGHT KANG and the blood knights. However, Slayers, Dorf Warriors with GWs and Ungrim all manage to savage my blood knights before I disengage.I make the long return to my main blob to help them out with artillery, and am thankful that Ungrim will take a while to reach me

now

x4 blood knight units with <10 models and no hp left


Whilst this is going on I piecemeal engage my infantry lineup, and unfortunately I stick 4 units on Throgrim. This nigga just wont.go.down. Seems to be going okay until their gyrocopter blob is hitting my grave guard from all angles - and let me tell you,they do some serious damage. By the time my blood knights manage to reach the right (east) side of the battlefield to silence the remaining 3 grudge throwers, I've lost all my Grave Guard with great weapons to gyrocopters, with the shielded variants and crypt horrors cleaning the limited infantry that the Dorfs brought

So right now I'm obviously panicking because Ungrim + all the remaining infantry is slowly marching over, my hammer is completely destroyed (blood knight units are getting harassed by gyros but have traded all their HP for destroying enemy artillery).

However, thsi sacrifice WAS in vain because my infantry has just got butchered. The AI smartly snagged my big infantry blob on a couple of units that took very long to go down, and the x6 gyrocopters and thunderers had their way with my unshielded units

I popped an invocation of nehek but panicked and placed a spirit leech on thorgrim, to little noticeable effect. I coudl have comfortably won the battle with another overcast invocation but was not thinking straight. This cost my my entire grave-guard AP units and left me with mainly the sturdier crypt horrors and shileded GG (but they also would drop to mass-gyrocopter fire.

At this point, all the dorf infantry is dead HOWEVER, thorgrim is holding my blob at bay whilst I struggle to scratch him and even more terrifying, Ungrim is approaching.

I charge my level 1 vamp lord into combat with Thorgrim and manage to get another invocation of Nehek off, this keeps many of my units in the fight. Eventually, I decided I have to use my Wight KANG to suicide-charge ungrim and prevent him from entering the melee by knocking him down.

This buys me enough time to rout thorgrim and kill him, and I manage to finally get another overcast Nehek off, bringing two of my blood knights to half strength and giving me some meat to take on Ungrim with

One of the most exhilirating battles I've had against an extremely unorthodox army composition.

I have to give a shout out to the better AI recruitment mod because I've never had battles like this before. (Also using mousillionbros mod, that shit is awesome)

Gyros are really underrated honestly

The brimstone variants are flat out disgustingly good against VC

I feel what the Dorfs need is for their two very specific "ranged flankers" (irondrakes and trollhamer torpedo variants) to be buffed

Because honestly, out of all the factions that currently exist, Dorfs rely so much more on terrain/map RNG to allow their AP ranged units and arty to work their magic.

More elevation, more depression and terrain features for the dwarfs to really use to their advantage. A range boost for their cannons would be nice to give them an advantage over doom divers and empire cannons too

Really not enjoying my very hard Vampire campaign right now. Expanded over all Sylvania and one other settlement because corruption and thus public order straight up restricted me from going any further.
And so I just improved my settlements for 50 turns. Then I took two provinces from the Empire factions, and was again stopped by province management. So I made peace with the Empire proper who had blobbed up a ton, and sat on my ass for another 20 turns or so.

Tilea came up through the Border Princes and declared war on me, calling in the Dwarves. Dwarves fielded no armies, I sacked two of their settlements and made peace with them.
Tilea I conquered down to the bottom of border princes.

Meanwhile the Empire was completely exterminated by Chaos, pre-Archaon.

And then Archaon popped. And I have Kemmler and Mannfred down in Tilea with only a third stack and walls on every province to resist Chaos. Which seems like it'll be enough. Even though their chosen spam wins sieges really easily.

Overall I just feel far too restricted to be enjoying myself.
Expansion is completely restricted by public order, as caused by a lack of Corruption(the attrition part I don't mind).
Military is restricted by the Vampire's abysmal economy.

Sylvania you are bottled in, whereas with Mousillon you can kill Bretonnia, expand down the South or expand into the Empire without ever feeling bottled in like you do in Sylvania. Start is difficult, but once you get your starting province secured (mass skelly - NOT ZOMBIE, autoresolve the siege for your first proince) then you are set to victory

Yeah, you are bottled in Syvlania. You can only go North or West and you have to keep an army in Slyvania to prevent dorfs/orksies sacking it, so effectively you are restricted as fuck in what you can do.

Though desu even in my mousillion playthrough the playstyle was similar insofar you have to wait and really build up your provinces before you can support additional armies.

Learn to use the raiding stance as well, that cancels out any attrition you receive on the campaign map, and make sure to get your banshees ASAP and use their army block feature in conjunction with slow moving stacks to get kills on armies in the field

Mousillon is the perfect location for Vamps desu, Sylvania is horrid

>>149372204
I don't think they're supposed to start off with only 2k. I also think they're missing a lot of economic buildings and things like farms and ports are fucked. Trade isn't possible without diplomats, and they might be missing merchants as well.

You might as well give yourself an extra 8k at the beginning of the game, and buy those free granaries.

I never had this issue though

You have to combine the better AI recruitment mod with the TIER 4 settlement mod that allows AI to build TIER 4 minor settlements so that they can build tech aand military buildings in minor provinces (because the AI doesn't know how to demolish)
>>
>>149373059
Yes, you can only go north and west, until you go west slightly, then you can go south.

Bretonnian starts can only go South and East. They're actually bottled in more.
The only difference is you have a featureless ocean to your back rather than passive-aggressive stunted people. They're not really a threat.

I'm not stupid to the point that I don't understand army stances, and I've already said that I don't care about the attrition part of spreading corruption.

The only issue is how long it takes to set up public order with the combination of vampire corruption spread speed in conjunction with Legendary/Very Hard public-order levels.

Public order should be less impacted outside of corruption as vampires. Because the general result is that you need to build along two building chains to fix public order, whereas everyone else only needs one.

I HATE those mostly cav armies. I just finished off chaos for good (autoresolving lol)

Their army was sigvald, a single unit of chosen, three hellcannons, and the rest either chaos knights of marauder horsemen. It just isnt a fun battle to play, and there is no way to take less casualties than the autoresolve so I just suck it up and move on. Killing the empire is the real fun as VC anyways, and lucky for me the empire is still alive and decently strong so I have a fun end-game enemy.
>>
>>149376364
>Killing the empire is the real fun as VC anyways
Empire always seems to get utterly annihilated by pre-Archaon Chaos invasions for me unless I intervene. My post-chaos VC campaigns always ends up being recolonizing the North and purging the Dwarves if they didn't get stomped by Greenskins.
>>
>>149376704
I guess I lucked out then. Maybe its because once I took bechafen chaos was finishing up kislev and then tried to invade my lands. I fucked them up good one army at a time and the age of peace happened. The empire has 10 provinces now and are in 3rd place strength wise so I'm looking forward to crushing them once I figure out how to invade them successfully. I can only field 3 stacks at a time, and usually two are needed to work together while ne is left to defend the rest of my empire so it can be annoying when I try to lay siege somewhere and gelt decides to shit up the middle of my empire.

I wish the VC had better econ buildings. Thats all they really need to me better.

So I'm playing as Karl "The Man" Franz, and about the Rieksguard unit..... Is there any point in building them cause Demigryphs are better and they're only one building chain away.

I feel like Rieksguard are in a weird spot. You need specialized buildings for them, but those buildings are locked at Settlement level 3, yet the Demigryphs are at Settlement level 4, yet are better for only 300g more. Rieksguard are too far to be used early, yet too early to be of use in the late game.

Might as well just wait the 8-10turns and get the stuff to build Demigryphs, but maybe I'm too dumb and aren't seeing their use. Tell me /twg/, am I being dumb or do I got it right?

Build the Reiksfort in Helmgart to get the extra garrison units there.
>>
>>149377345
Nope. demis are pretty much the end all-be all unit of cav in TW:WH.

I kept a reiksfort in reikland just for fun and unit diversity, and I would have one unit of them to use like a bodyguard unit for franz, but demis are better in every single way.

Reiksguard might be a bit faster, but I'm not sure on that.
>>
>>149377345
Reiksguard are in a weird place in campaign. Emprie Knights perform the same task nearly as well and not requiring a dumb waste of a building slot. I try not to spam demis just to keep things interesting but keeping a core of Knights with demi support is just easier and less investments while still getting a decent return.

Against other knights yes. But against infantry i have seen little differences in performance. Killing orc boys and marauders is just as easy for both. And hammering in the hammer and anvil doesn't require that much skill at arms either.

I'd rather have another greatsword than have my knights be reiks
>>
>>149378594
Not the person you're replying to but I appreciate the leadership difference mostly.
Easier battles sure, knights will clean up as well as Reiksguard will. But in larger battles where you'll take damage from charge after charge after charge, or having to fight in melee for a little bit after the charge just to make double sure a unit breaks, Reiksguard vastly outperform generic knights.

Maybe but it might also be playstyle differences.

I don't ask too much from my cav generally. Knock a few blobs a bit and just set my infantry to win it. Keep a few halberd demis just to counter other cav and empire knights to do some bullying, cycling, or eating a charge for the demis

Well, alright then.

The best part was that the whole thing was kinda pointless. I've already got the Empire, Kislev, and parts of Bretonnia and the Border Princes conquered. If Drakenhof had fallen, nothing would have happened. The Greenskins would have had to retreat anyway. I just finished razing Norsca, so now I've got 4-5 stacks heading down south, while Karl and Balthasar can either finish razing the Badlands (they've already got a fair part of it, including Black Crag) or head back up to join the 7 stack doomtrain.

But she's the most influential mortal (somewhat) character in the whole Warhammer Fantasy world.

Because of her we had the Sundering which created the Dark Elves which created Nagash and all other undead, War of the Beard which crippled Dwarfs and High Elves so that the Old World get ravaged by Beast and Greenskin alike, which in turn "created" Sigmar who unified the tribes and created the Empire.

And it all started with her being damsel in distress. Or was she?

I just don't like the Chaos campaign. I hate the slow replenish, I hate how every faction seems to have radar and you will end up with 5 armies hunting your one army all over the map on forced march so you get fucked up as soon as you try to do anything other run away. What's worse is that as soon as you are in even a slightly superior position to the AI they all run away just out of reach. I hate that there is no ambush stance. I hate the infighting.

All that said I do like the legendary lords a lot. I also like their mid and late game units. Sending Sigvald down into Brettonia to sack the shit outta them is fun. I think I would enjoy the campaign a lot more with a few mods to up replenish and remove infighting.

No one picks stunties in PVP cause they can be kited to death with no alternative.

In PVE, pick a gyro to bait the enemy, or the bomber to break up front lines that are already engaged. Their damage and cost are not worth it still.

You aren't bottled in Sylvania. Vampire Counts are by far the easiest faction to win with. In Total War, if you don't lose, you'll almost certainly win eventually.

Vampire Counts have some of the strongest anti-lose mechanics in the game with Raise Dead and Vampiric corruption.

In terms of campaign easiness: Vampires > Dwarves > Orcs > Empire > Chaos

To be fair, the dwarves had whole bunch of shit happen to them in row.

First there was there was the War with the Elves, and then Mazdamundi decided that that the world didn't match the model globe the old one's had left for him, so decided to turn 90% of the Dwarf Holds into an inland sea.

The Dwarves had 6 melee units. That's enough to tie up at least as many Undead.

I didn't play the match so I have no idea if he played well or not. I would assume he didn't, given that the value of his army is very high, whereas the value of their army doesn't appear to be so, barring the lords.

Best thing you can do is pull everything back to what you want to protect/most developed areas and try to separate and gang bang the hordes as they come.

Banshees are amazing at this point for blocking armies and assassinating the lower tier agents/leaders.

ended up fighting one army on a river (not really, thanks lazy battle maps) and the rest ran away to try and attack one of my towns. luckily the walls are upgraded.

Once you get full walls in every town, it's basically impossible to lose the game. It just takes the AI too much manpower to take even a single fortified town.

Well that's good! Better off than I was, I realized this too late and only had one leveled Banshee and a few other only at rank 5.

Okay, so Im really enjoying my time with tw warhammer, but I do not know much about lore and new to warhammer in general.

Basically im playing the Vampiric Cunts and I killed the chaos faggots who almost killed me entirely, then I built castles in the north and now im rich as fuck and I also destroyed the other chaos viking faction. Besides the dwarves, I haven't had problems with any other faction and the moment Im in a stable position, the fucking empire asks for a non aggression pact, trade agreement and a military alliance in like 10 turns time. Turns out they are at war with bretonnia and every single faction that still is alive.

Is this lorefriendly or are the diplomatic relations totally randomised? Like are there biases for certain factions that always team up with each other or something? I thought the empire hated vampires n shit.

How could Bretonnia have cannon-armed ships equivalent to 16th century galleons? Isn't gunpowder dishonorable?

Are the navy not tied to the land-based feudal fiefs? Instead of forging their own cannons, are the cannons are bought from Marienburg/Estalia?

Strange, because if I think about MUH HONOR AND GLORY thirsty warrior nobles on boats I'll reminded more of the boarding-happy Samurai Feudal Navies. They tend to squabble who gets to lead the honorabru vanguard, calling dibs on ships to board, competing on headhunt scores, grappling hook fencing on who gets to board the enemy's flagship, not using cannons when Korean and Ming navy can blow holes from afar.

Are you bragging about a 20% off voucher?

I like GMG and all, but they're very readily available. There is generally always a monthly code for a flat 20% off. And more if you can't grab that.

If you watch anyone on twitch dot television, you may notice some streamers have a partnership with Scam2A for a 3% off referral code.

The few streams that GMG have partnered just have an omnipresent 20% off code. Vinescause and Broteam are the two fuckers I occasionally watch who have them, used both(non-stacking obviously) a few times now.

They don't do voucher codes anymore, now it's a baseline 20% when you log in for most games

Ideally you want to use the buildings on your provence capitals so you can max out their rank/spread and prepare the next territories for expansion/corruption.

If you need to look into maybe using agents with corruption skills and spreading them around in territories where they'll do the most damage. Maybe try to target any buildings that could be countering your corruption spread that sort of thing. Also doing research that boots corruption.

But honestly other than that there's just a lot of waiting. If you put your armies in raid stance they'll stop taking damage though, just they can't recoup numbers.

It doesn't help the game doesn't throw "good" stacks at you.

The AI either tries to overwhelm you with massed numbers or just spits out shit stacks. One is pointless to fight as you know you'll lose, the other is too easy and not worth the time ti takes to load into the map.

Install a better AI recruitment mod so you don't have to deal with dog & marauder horsemen armies, armies will mostly be composed of melee infantry. I haven't tried it myself yet but I will give it a spin today. Pretty sure absolutely nobody likes fighting norscan stacks because of their fucking horribly annoying army compositions.

Killing dogs and chasing those fucking horsemen sucks balls, it's just never fun or satisfying.

>>149456348
Play a bit more defensively, move multiple armies together maintaining reinforcement range on the map and then only break an army off to chase weaker stacks. YOU should be the one with the superior numbers at all times if possible while the AI is shitting itself trying to run away. If you're being lured into 3 army rapestacks it means you need to git gud or you're an absolute madman. Stop sending out lone armies into enemy territory. When you go on the offensive, make sure the AI knows they're in deep shit on the campaign map. If the AI sees a bunch of your armies moving together on the map supporting eachother trust me; they shit their pants and start running away if they can't bring an equivalent number of armies to stop your own god-tier combined expeditionary armies into their territory.

The AI will recognize your strength if you keep your shit in reinforcement range, they will treat your armies as a unified force, so 2000 over 3 armies in reinforcement range, the AI rightly recognizes 6000 enemy soldiers ready to jump into a single fight. This is how you scare the shit out of the AI, because the AI can't possibly plan for this on short notice and almost never moves its armies like this. In my experience, do this and you'll pretty much always have the initiative over the AI, the only thing you'll really have to worry about then is enemy agent spam.

A fucking niche genre aiming for a more casual audience, and even worse, go with one of GW's most successfull IP, which is the most niche of both and i'm not separating the one that know about the settings and the neckbeards that own armies, and remove what neophytes love about it ?

>>How about Pegasus Knights Air Wing from a Pegasus Carrier? That's damn chivalric.
Bretonnian ships do have Pegasus knights on them, and their ships can function as mini-carriers. It's just that Pegasus are also rare, and their ships often augment their armaments with cannons.

I think it's just one of those odd pragmatic concessions that the Bretonnians quietly make every once in awhile. Since naval ships with cannons have such a huge advantage over naval ships without cannons at range, and they can't rely on the blessings of the lady like they can while on horseback. And as mentioned before, gunpowder weapons are less offensive when used in a capacity when not replacing/being used against Knights (like cannons in land warfare might).

If they put as much effort into their next historical title like they did for Attila and Warhammer it should be fine. They also don't own the rights for a 40k title IIRC, but I'm sure they could get them. Also GW have a very strange view of video games, since they fear it'll take away from their cash cow, the models. It's one of the reasons that big 40k titles are hard to come by compared to all the shovelware that has been shat out. Though BFG was good and Deathwing looks good as well so who knows.

It's likely that if the Egyptians were still doing it by the time Romans showed up, the Romans would have done it, at least in the region. Now if it was common throughout the Empire, I think that's unlikely.

Nigger, learn to read. I never debated that, it's obviously successful. That chart only shows that there's no consensus among the people (roughly half of the total voters) voting for a historical game as the best in the series.

Gunpowder is dishonorable for knights to use and they don't let peasants have them because a peasant revolt is one thing, it's a whole nother problem if the peasants can actually kill you fairly easily. Those ships are owned by merchants who sail to Marienberg, crewed by peasants, and they get their cannons from the Empire in order to defend against Norsling raiders in the Sea of Claws.

The AI does home in on you really magically. If you play Chaos you'll see Bretonnia come up to Norsca to deal with you and shit. Even if you haven't razed a single province yet.

What's everyone's opinion of lightning strike? Shit was a lifesaver in my mousillon campaign against the chaos and norscan hordes. The way that huge warbands disperse even though they don't enter combat helps immensely when breaking down 4+ stacks clumped together. That and vamp Raise dead.

Anyone have any issues with any mods that caused the game to crash when chaos appears.

The arachnarok
I don't really use the spider riders except the archers (although I have a weird issue where they forget attack orders and stop skirmishing which doesn't happen with the wolves), they're basically faster night goblins, and if I want to run down fleeing units I just stick them in melee mode
The arachnaroks with sneaky stabbin is what I was referring to though, the enemy blobs around them make excellent doom diver targets too

Attila and Warhammer are outstanding, Rome 2 Emperor Edition redeemed the game, and Shogun 2 and FoTS were superb games as well.

Can't really magic it out with invocation of nehek. Except one time I saw Hier Foot of Gork it and tried it. The deathstar needs to be tied down and compact but that can work to take out the cairn wraith core.

Empire is pretty shit. Only get it if you are really, REALLY interested in the time period.

If you want gunpowder total war then you should go for Fall of the Samurai or Napoleon instead.

Shogun 2 and Attila are fun and they play pretty well.

Rome 2 if you got the extra cash

Warhammer(or continue play vanilla rome 1) if you want some fantasy.
>>
>>149487176
Empire: Total War has a fuck ton of flaws, most of them stemming from the terrible campaign map, which is the biggest in the series but seems to suffer because of it. Napoopan gets around this by having a smaller scope, but loses some of that Empire magic in the process. If you like the era it's worth checking out, but mods will really improve your time with the game.

If they hadn't of voiced, textured, modelled and animated the Manticore, they might have been able to make the Jabberslythe.

He was a shitty, late addition in TT to the Beastmen and was virtually never used. If you're going to sulk and pretend to understand how a professional development studio should use it's resources at least do it over some thing that isn't pointless like the Jabber.

What was good or popular on TT should not be relevant to a video game adaptation. If the Beastmen roster was fuckhuge like Empire and Chaos it would be fine to exclude a few things here and there, but its not by a mile.

Flying monsters are cool and are a thing that makes the game fun and interesting.

You need to keep just a single stack as vamps early game to have a decent economy. Expansion as vamps is fucked because even with furnaces on most of your settlements the creep expands to slow.

>>
>>149493937

I just use one main stack of good units to siege, which doesn't take attrition, and then march up a bunch of raised skeletons/zombies alongside for reinforcement, that can either be easily replaced (raise dead and merging units) or stuck in the raiding stance if you need to starve out the sieged settlement while sitll being able to reinforce
Even if the enemy gets their hands on one of your weak stacks you can just kill as many as possible to make a battlefield graveyard and raise something stronger. (Which carries over later for recruitment if you capture the area you are fighting in)
Only real issue is that you shouldn't grow too attached to your supporting generic lords due to crumbling, I typically just use master necromancers

>>149494219
That's what I've been doing. Kemler is by himself in sylvania and can raise an army quickly if needed but all my minor settlements have walls so I doubt I'll be attacked by anything other than a chaos doomstack. i'm trying to pick my enemies carefully and only have one at a time if possible so I haven't fucked with the empire yet. I'm leaving them around to absorb the main blow of the chaos invasion.

It just feels like I'm going so slow. At turn 85 in my dwarfs and empire campaigns I had more than half of my long campaign victory objectives complete. I doubt I'll finish the long campaign before turn 300 at this rate.

Are there any mods to help with this or should I just tough it out on vanilla?

empire gets ports, gold mines, and tons of other economy options. VC get a few buildings that get you 200 per turn when fully upgraded. The gold mine in eastern sylvania is the only building besides the fully upgraded library that makes more than 500 per turn.

If they can make Archaon reasonable there is a way to get a Ghorgon in there.

Its a video game, they don't just mindlessly scale the WS S T W I A into the game though there should be some correlation to a point.

Would a killier giant really break the game? I mean Kholeck is in the game and would probably beat a Ghorgon.

There is already regeneration effects (fuck you deathstar) so a monster that regenerates as it kills wouldn't be out there in terms of mechanics.

Vamps get their money from town centres, and two buildings you can only build at tiers 4 and 5. If you're trying to make money with them by building gibbets everywhere you're doing in wrong, they don't have a worthwhile minor building for money like other races do. Turtle up and upgrade your cities.
