desu with the sigmarines around a smart way to revitalize themselves would be to bring back warhammer fantasy and divide the entire hobby into serious/collector's edition and kid's edition

serious/collectors would also include pewter models and be the same overpriced, unpainted, inassembled garbage. Kids edition would be like yugioh cards or pokemon cards where you buy a box of guys from an army and get several random models that are prepainted and pre-assembled for the little bastards.

Start selling that shit in major stores like Wal-Mart and Target and you'll have tons of little faggots on the playground trading space muhreens for tyrantnids and shit like that

Also, action figures and maybe even trading cards

GW could be making so much money but they're fucking incompetent

That's a good idea, but like you said they're incompetent. We don't get movies, we don't get animated or just regular series, we didn't get cool novels that don't involve the universe ending and the speed mehreens being shoe horned in like a novel about being a ganger or something or the ever day life of its citizens outside of a warzone. We're stuck with trash because they seem to hate money as much as several Jap game devs.

After spending the last 3 or 4 days playing dwarf campaigns again and again I had a dream last night where Thorgrim had to go to the Darklands at the head of a throng to recover the body of a friend of his whose soul Hashut would otherwise steal. The Dwarf throng was met by a Chaos Dwarf legion and they faced off and Thorgrim talked mad shit. Then I woke up.

Honestly the current DLC schedule is dumb, Skaven and Chaos Dwarfs should come before Tomb Kangs simply because Orcs and Dwarfs are constantly at war with the Chaos Dwarfs and Skaven over territory and shit while the Tomb Kangz just sit around going "man it feels bad to be undead and shit"

>>150858598
No, corruption spreads as fast as it needs to be. Just accept the vampire campaign isn't your thing, this isn't Rome 2 where all the campaigns were the same with minor differences. Vampires spread their corruption and wait until Chaos has rekt the empire to take everything over and drive Chaos out. That's just how they work. Each campaign has a different gimmick.

>>150858423
Tolkien races are pretty popular in fantasy games, anon.

>>150858748
Corruption is a shit mechanic

>>150858423
If Chaos is based on Undead then who are the vampires and tomb kangz (the Undead) based on?

>>150858886
>hurr durr why can't everyone play more or less the same

I'm certain when Skaven come out and have mechanics where they can infest human and dwarf cities slowly you'll also complain then

Infiltration/waiting factions aren't your thing. Play Beastmen or Greenskins and go out and murder everything then.

>>150858423
Empire doesn't look like loyalists at all though.

>>150857721

More aggression from the Dwarfs, Chaos and Empire. They shouldn't just sit around while you corrupt and resettle everything.

Political offices and intrigue. Mannfred is supposed to be one of the most politically cunning vampires in the world but there's no political challenges at all.

Ability to unite with the Tomb Kings and summon Nagash.

I think I'm going to back to Attila for a little bit. What do you guys think about Fall of the Eagles?

>>150859114
>unite with the kangs

No. But Mannfred should have the ability to bring about an endgame "return of Nagash" if he gets too strong. Then kangs and vampires unify into a single faction and wage war on the world like chaos.

>>150859596
If you seriously believe that there will never be a kislev reskin with ice magic and speshul kislev campaign sold as "totally new DLC only 19 dollars plz buy" ur delusional

Making DLCs of the non-Empire humans is the most profitable thing in this game because aside from the retards shouting bear cavalry the fact is most of the human factions use similar units which can just be outright ripped from Bretonnia or the Empire, given a color change and maybe a new hat and then packaged as "Estalian duelists" or something like that.

Am I the only one who likes Medieval 1 better than 2? It had a proper feudal atmosphere. Armies marching sounded better and it had great music. Sprites also have a charm to them.

Medieval 2 was too bright, and soldiers look like hunchbacks just like in Rome 2.

A lot of the warscape games play way better than medieval 2. Rome 1 is basically the only well made game the old engine has. The older 2d total war games wasn't talked about much in the "old /twg/" either.

>>150862889
>>150863021
This happened before with sevenchan. People who 'leave' are always the retarded newbies.

Ive been on this website since 2004. In the early days m00t did all sorts of various things. One of the things he did was fuck with /b/, a lot. Apart from much more commonly embedding music or changing the background to various forms of eyefuckery, he very frequently would toggle on and off forced anonymous for periods of time, seemingly at random. He would also have stickies often. One of the reoccurring stickies in the early days was the rules sticky, to remind people of the rules.

Now fast forward a few years, 4chan has become popular, and lots of people came here for the '/b/ culture', instead of coming here to fap to animu and going to /b/ just because may as well. m00t also slowed down his tampering with the site to a certain degree by then, and a LOT of faggot newbies never even experienced the kinds of things that were common place in the first year or so of the relaunch of 4chan.

Well one day m00t put up ye olde rules sticky again. All it did was direct people to the rules that have always been there. And the newfags flipped out. They started raging about how "/b/ has no rules!" and claiming the site was dead and something about forced anonymous, i think moot disabled it again and these stupid newbies, unaware of the long history of tripfriending on /b/ since they werent even here when all that was happening, saw it as yet another 'new' thing that signaled a radical shift in what they thought was an otherwise stable septic tank of by then 'not pretending anymore' idiots who had already lost a lot of the innovative photoshop image macro creativity that defined early 4chan.

The massive unhappy block of newbies all ran off to 7chan where they probably still exist to this day discussing how they are so much better than 4chan. infini is just another. You should ignore it, its a shit and they removed their only good boards.

t. dwarfautist

>>150864510
>alt-right

Nazis=/=alt right

In the first place alt-right is a meme created by the homosexual Milo Yiannopoulos to create a form of nationalist conservatism which is semi-ethnic in nature but doesn't hate on gays.

The term is rejected by 4chan /pol/ because they generally don't like gays and trannies and especially don't like people trying to co-opt /pol/ for their own uses

8 ch /pol/ is just outright nazi, with people who get booty-tickled at you when you point out that Nazi Germany was a nice place because of loans the government took out to spend on building infrastructure and shit similar to Roosevelt or Peron's make-work projects. The idea that it was unsustainable is heresy to them.

>>150864796
Maybe the Libertarians shouldn't have made an open borders anti-gun anarcho capitalist their nominee

>>150864923

>>150865452

Please don't cuss, this is a Christian website.

>>150865317
I was specifically talking about the historic event when referring to retarded newbies, in regards to 8, its most likely the same reason communism works for a while, they believe in their website so much they are trying to make it seem better than it is, and holding it together through sheer willpower

to summarize infini is full of communists.

Also yes.

>>150865404
You mean shit that was happening 2 years ago when moot was going full retard?

>everything is normal again

Because in january 2015 moot fucked off forever and the site stopped getting fucked up by his deranged faggotry

>>150865317

>Is that why discussion on 8 ch tends to be more on topic than here?

4chan get more newer users on average and there are more users overall. It's safe to say that a good portion of those that left were newish(people that didn't know about all the other attempts and people that aren't "jaded" enough to participate in another internet movement).


>>150865629
It was the fappening that broke him, not GG.

>>150865590
The reason why cripplezone works is because it has developed a completely different board culture similar to krautchan with a self-sustaining userbase of people who leave 4chan when they feel the shitposting is getting to cancerous levels

As I said many boards over there which would be relegated to /b/ or /s4s/ here are their own little communities. It is simply different from here and that gimmick is why it is unlikely to die off.

Also communism can be sustained indefinitely. It only fell apart because of the existence of capitalist countries which promise the impossible dream that everyone can live like an upper middle class American.

>>150865739
Without a doubt the ones from /pol/ at least left for 8 ch because moot kept fucking up their board, not because they wanted to "change the world"

Hence why gamergate was already considered to be a reddit-infiltrated joke by january 2015 over there.

Also moot didn't give a fuck about GG beyond his new SJW friends at Google not liking it.

>>150865629
>m00t got cucked by his girlfriend

>>150865739
Actually no. the /v/ that left for eightchan were people that saw this website turn into Reddit 2.0

eightchan was like a fucking bunker/shelter, where all the refugee anons came to build their home there. is better quality than this but most boards are dead as fuck. it's just /v/, /pol/ and /christian/

Instead of taking clay your goal is to make sure most of the other factions keep their clay. You can intervene in any war and help any side. You must destroy Beastmen, Chaos and Vampires and must make sure corruption doesn't spread.

If a faction is destroyed you can bring it back by resettling its core province which will revive it.

How do I play Vampire Counts? It seems neat but I just seem to be raising tons of skeletons and ghouls and deathmarching towards Empire. Any clever or pro tips about playing VC?

>>150881869
The
>Enemy lords dies to a hail of fire at the start of the battle
episode is better.

>>150883240
>VC tips

After you take E/W Sylvania attack averland, wissenland, and stirland. One at a time if possible. If you can do it quickly enough you can defeat them before other factions declare war on you.

Build walls in every single minor settlement. You cant afford more than two good stacks in the beginning and you don't want one of them doing fuckall sitting in a settlement for a bunch of turns.

Build a vampire crypt and library in every capital. These are your money making buildings. Build that blazier in the capital as well to spread corruption.

Try to take a whole province before you move on to another so you can get the commandment that spreads corruption.

Skeletons with spears make good meat shields. Put them in front of your towers when assaulting a walled settlement so they get killed instead of the towers filled with grave guard.

>>150883240

That's how you play VC. You send expendable infantry to tangle up the enemy while your flankers close in from the sides. Zombies, skeletons, wolves and bats are all completely expendable and easy to replace on the fly.

Rush Crypt Horrors. They're really good monstrous infantry and perfect for flanking. Varghulfs are better but have double the upkeep.

>>150883240

Stick a necromancer in every capital region and give him the increased income talent.

Wood Elves: Focus on minimizing corruption in the world

Skaven: Pestilance (not-corruption), how many rats you can "summon"/reinforce in a battle

Bretonnia - Crusades

Tomb Kangz - Corruption again

Ogres - Food-meter. When raiding provinces you get them monies but also livestock which you need to have to keep your army happy

Dank Elves - Slaves. Raiding and events give you slaves to satisfy the people

>>150885596
the other two stacks have 3 each and they have a longer range

I really dont like playing non-horde races and I think it's because I'm just shit.

I can never plan which settlements get which buildings and I start to lose track of which province I was planning on doing what, so I end up with one province being able to build regular guys, another not being able to build anything, etc.

Do I put my low-tier unit producers in the capital? Do I put them in the side settlements? Do I spread all unit buildings across the province or shovel them all into one?

>>150885667
>Bretonnia - Crusades
Errantry wars or quests rather than just crusades.

I'm kinda hoping bretonnia gets a system similar to dwarves where they get random quest to complete for individual lords especially if they were randomized based off certain objectives or defeating certain races.

anything that can go up to tier 3 but no further can be built in the minor settlements (i.e. most basic infantry buildings). anything higher you want to build in your capital. Idealy you'd specialize if there's a special resource nearby.

Alternatively you can try making dedicated recruitment provinces that are just 100% recruitment buildings with taxes turned off while every other province is 100% economy.

>2003

>>150885970

I'm looking forward to skaven. I hope they have some sort of infest mechanic that lets you infest a city and have it slowly build a population inside, then when you siege it, the population that built up inside pops out as a reinforcing army

>>150887398
If you have a battle with a ton of casualties, there's a good chance that a grave marker will appear there. It makes it worth it to assault cities with great masses of fodder so you can rack up the kills.

Anyone know where I get a updated bootlegged copy of Rome 2 ....I wanna try glorious DEI again

Bypass soon for Total Warhammer, which faction is best?

Shit I wish with how much I have to point out g2a to people. I bought TWW and Beastmen from DLGamer and got a similar price, so I'm not just shilling G2A. It's just that they are usually always the lowest price because they sell sale price keys that they stockpile on

It was just a reference to what was at the bottom of the screen, with the amounts involved 3% credit to find a new customer is shit unless you bring in big numbers anyway

Whenever I play Cunts, it seems like the bats are totally useless, but whenever I have to fight them, it's like the bats are unkillable divebombers that tie up all my artillery. Fuckin bats.

You need to buff them with tech and the red skill to make them good. A lord with the buffing trait on top of that makes them crazy cost-efficient.

First time playing Empire... I usually tend to not play Cavalry heavy armies because I don't have the attention span to micromanage cav well, but these guys were super fun to dance in and out and slam into shit.

I think I might take this empire play through Cav heavy

>>150888083
of next year probably

>>150890414
The cavalry charges in Warhammer are so satisfying.

BRETONNIA FUCKING WHEN

Damn, /gsg/ are wrapping up yet another shitposting war. I really hope we never get that bad.

>>150891475
I wish I was into Grand strategy sometimes just so I could watch those shitposting wars.

What happened over there? I need a TL:DR.

>>150891797
A notorious shitposter got doxxed and outed as a brony. The thread then descended into even worse shitposting than usual. You can read the thread for the full experience, minimal knowledge of grand strategy is required.

This is probably the best showdown I've ever had in this game so far. Killed Archaon and big bird to get long campaign victory.

Swarming a hill full of chosen, giants, trolls, and hell cannons with 20 units of black orks and tons of huge spiders / giants is extremely satisfying.

>>150866257
I've played as Kislev using the mod made by that guy from COW
Really great, although when I'm playing I've learned the best tactic is to start attacking the Varg and sacking/razing their settlements ASAP. A group of 4-8 ungol horse archers can take care of most Norscan settlements
As for settlement building, I use the Northern Oblast for military buildings, and everything else for economy. With the mods I use, I haven't played long enough to get to the first Chaos wave. If you use all cav armies to harass Chaos armies, and let your settlements fend off most attacks, you should be fine

wait a second

so you be saying that tomb kangz will be announced before elves

???

>>150891475
what exactly is it about /gsg/ that makes it so prone to shitfests? i used to browse there fairly regularly and it was always so fucking awful. the usual excuse is 'muh steamgroup' but i wonder if that's actually the truth. maybe it's something inherently connected to spending gratuitous amounts of time playing and posting about autistic map-games.

>>150893646
Before High Elves and Dark Elves, probably.
Lustria and Ulthuan aren't even outlined on the map whilst Araby is at least hidden in the fog of war.

>>150893859
>he says while posting in total fantasyshitfest general

>>150893859
Whats so special about the Steamgroup, I just skimmed threw the thread and saw reference to it.That its never been tried.

>>150884428
Send in Grimgor and his black orcs tbqh

The worst we get is when some British fucks barge into the thread and start complaining about how awful there pathetic lives are. For the most part we are slow but alright.

>>150894104
This place is shit.
It used to be good, before Warhammer.
Warhammer was a mistake.

>le old times where better
I know you are just shitposting for (you)s but regardless you are still a retard.

>>150894404
Prove me wrong faggot.

>>150893646
Going by the Russian data mining Wood Elves will come out around or after Bretonnian. Probably as the next paid for DLC. After them will be Tomb Kings as DLC faction.

All that said CA has said this information is out of date but not in what ways so maybe things have changed.


Tomb Kings will be announced within our lifetime

>>150894332
fantastical magical factions is what makes it fun. How could the general have been any fun before that?

If you want to banter about real world shit you go to /int/

Why not before?

What the fuck are you even doing with that spoiler?

yes the endless shitposting about Anitochus and chicken tendies was much more engaging and related to TW games.

Warhams era is a best era because even the shitposting is directly about the game

>>150895069
From what I understand from whats been floating around it sounds like the plan is Bretonnia will be a free faction/content with Wood Elves releasing along side as a paid faction. Which would make some sense as the two have a lot of history and ties in the lore and occupy the same area of the map.

Of course this is all speculation but so far the Data mine has been correct so until that changes.

I fucked it up without double checkingI just wanted to meme
