Probably. I wouldn't be surprised to see regional occupation limits change a lot as well.
They also need to invent a reason for lizardmen to mess around in the other parts of the map that isn't just stopping the chaos invasion. Maybe they should have an objective to fuck up the skaven, since they really hate them?

Daily reminder that map is much bigger than it seems, Skaven and Wood Elves can all fit in the current map, and Chaos Dwarfs and Tomb Kings have their areas ready. Only Ogre Kingdoms need map expansion to get to them.

Having Chaos and by extension Skaven as their main objective would work well I think. The only thing is they're not really expansionists.

It will be interesting to see what CA does with the Wood Elves given they're also not expansionists. If wood Elves get some kind of unique settlement/campaign map BS I can see their mechanics transferring over the the Liazardmen as well.

The theatre system is a concession towards actually putting the entire world from America to India in the game. The Warhammer world changed shape a lot and it's less of an issue that everything is squeezed together than in a historical game. Might as well have a continuous map if it's possible.

Any examples for any of these claims? Warscape unit charges and unit responsiveness is far superior to the older games. The fact that the original engine made half a decade ago had musket warfare implementation doesn't mean anything. I doubt you even have warhammer, you sound like a maddie in some slavic shithole who can't afford a good computer.

Armies didn't move in 1 second. The older games have it more authentic and realistic.

This argument just sounds like something a casual would say: "waaahh the old games were too hard!".

The responsiveness are fine, don't blame the game for your incompetence.

>The fact that the original engine made half a decade ago had musket warfare implementation doesn't mean anything.
Have you even looked at Rome 2's disastrous release?

The reason there were so many bugs, glitches and inconsistencies is due to the engine being meant for musket warfare and not antiquity. After a bazillion patches they finally fixed it, but the games still look out of place due to the graphics.

The graphics look fine in Empire and Napoleon, it gives natural to its time period. It doesn't fit antiquity or the early middle ages.

You sound like a casual that eats up the newest installment of FIFA/Madden/CoD/Halo without any second thought.

You have no integrity, self-respect, or care about the franchise. You're a braindead consumer.

They don't have hunchbacks though until they're in combat which is just a poorly-drawn ready-stance. When they're marching they're standing up straight, but if you try to stand that straight in a fight you'll just be knocked over.

>>151623728
Their combat poses are unnatural though and way too exaggerated. CSS has this problem too.

Shitty animations and derpy faces don't help either.

Rome did it well by having the eyes hidden under the shadow of the helmet.

>>151623898
Well I know they're unnatural, I'm just pointing out that standing up straight is also unnatural and that normally (marching stance / standby stance) they're not hunchbacks.

Warscape was built with musket style warfare in mind. Who's idea it was to try and adapt it to pure melee like Antiquity and Classical times is beyond me.

>He plays literal iPad games

I really despise these dance move animations of Empire, Shogun 2, and this new "game" ROME 2.
Does anyone remember the old days of Medieval 2 and the real, original Rome were you could watch solders actually fight for their lives through unscripted animations of hacking and slashing? Well, i do, so if you will please listen to my opinion of this battle engine CA has been using for their last few games.

If you aren't familiar, Rome's (the original) battle engine sorta worked like this.
It was based on circumstance rather then stats, an individual character could block, attack, dodge, shrug off the hit, or die. Once two characters engaged, lets use a legionnaire and a gaul for an example, then combat would ensue. So the legionnaire attacks the gaul, the gaul now can ether block, dodge, shrug off the hit, or die. lets say he blocks, however two more legionaries rush over to help out their friend, now the gaul has three enemies to fight. All three of the legionaries attack at once, the gaul can't attack because of all the blows and he can't block all of them he is receiving so he dies. Why Rome 2 Failed on youtube by Reynold Sanity can explain this much better then I can. (I can't give the link or CA will ban this post)

Also better units were better because their attacks were much more decisive and they could block and dodge much
better. Attacking a hill made it so the defenders could block easier and the Attackers had a hard time making their attacks hit. It was awesome unit on unit battles lasted longer allowing time for flanking moves and for more tactical moves to take place.

That is the beauty of this engine, it is totally organic. Medieval 2 added upon this by adding executions, too bad this is where CA got their idea for the current engine :(. Battles now are boring to watch up close with disciplined Legionaries breaking rank to do a dance battle with a man two ranks deep in the other enemy unit, or the same attacks moves playing over and over again.

When will we hear more about the new DLC guys?

Do you think it will be released on the 25th?

Do you guys have any tips for the Empire Campaign?

After I deal with the Secessionists, I'm not really sure what to do. I unite Reikland and then just kind of turtle and tech up, but it's pretty boring doing nothing for like 30 turns.

I can't really fight much of the empire lands, because it's an interconnected series of defensive alliances and non-aggression pacts.

>>151626475
Go aggro on those fucking Marienburgers while sucking up to Nuln. You need Marienburg for the flow of gold, and Nuln for their special build options (elite artillery). If Nuln is no closer to conferating peacefully by the time you've built a powerful army, roll over them too.

>>151626338
Shogun 1 doesnt look lke that I had it the game was shit in combat. It was like med 2 with worse graphics where arrows were useless and AI had bonuses to infantry so in a grind you always lose.

Thats why he lost, he collected huge amount of chaos people then lead them to defeat.

Rome and Medieval 2 are special in that they have mods that are way better than vanilla.

They could be considered "vanilla+" or "how the game was supposed to be"

In Rome's case it's EB/RTR.
In Medieval2's case it's SS.

I still like Medieval1 because it has a dark and grim atmosphere, it feels like authentic middle ages.

Starting a second campaign on Rise of Persia, who should I play as?

What do you guys build in your capitals as Empire?

It's so frustrating, everything is Tier 3+

You need to have a temple there to get Witch Hunters/Stop corruption

You need to have the blacksmith there to get good troops

You can only build good artillery there

You have to build the mage college there

You have to build the cavalry stables there

You have to devote your capital purely to military, since you can't do it anywhere else, and that is a problem because their basic towns suck ass. You build a tailor and walls in every single one of them.

I see ogre kingdoms, wood elves, and daemons of chaos operating very similarly. Only one major settlement where you build your upgrade buildings. Their units then use ruined settlements to do something extra.

Ogres would gain growth for their home settlement by razing, wood elves would build like encampment in ruined cities that only allow recruitment and replenishment. And daemons would build chaos portals allowing lords to teleport to them from their home base. It's one way only though.

The chariots and razorgors charge into the enemy line and knock them for miles while the dogs come from behind and fuck their knocked over asses.

Only battles I've lost have been underway/beast path maps because of not being able to flank with the dogs.

In Lizardmen lore they are trying to complete the Great Plan, the will of the Old Ones, their creators. Thing is they don't have the complete picture for which they need to find gold plaques with the instructions on them.

So common missions would involve getting those plaques which can be in the possesion of any faction in the game. Other missions involve the stuff of the plan they know of which the Slann deems the time is right to fulfill. Stuff like:
>Recolonise abandoned temple city ruins in lustria/southlands
>Have an agent in a certain region for vaguely explained reasons
>Remove non-lizardmen army from a region because their presence there is not part of the Great Plan
>Remove all the Skaven and Savage Greenskins from Lustria

One of the key parts of that plan involves getting rid of un-natural factions like skaven, greenskins and chaos so there is the main campaign objective.

SHOCKING

this place is full of edgy atheists, anon.

it's like 90% of the /twg/ population, so there's obviously a bias and agenda to suppress christianity.

>>151657917
>So it's ok if atheists/evolutionists post images but not if christians do it?

I didn't say that. When have they posted random collages like that anyway.

Whenever you feel like engaging in an argument on 4chan just go and fap or play a quick battle in the TW game of your choice.
Especially when you know it's bait.

>Does anyone else's Beastmen early campaign game basically just end up being spam wait turn?
My first Beastmen campaign was just like that, but not because of research but because I had nothing else to do, or I was waiting the siege attrition out.

EB for most accurate/realism/autism.

RTR for a more realistic game than vanilla without going overboard.

It's so hard to go back to the older games after Attila and WH.

Everything just feels so clunky and unintuitive.

The fun thing about orthodoxy is that its obscure enough in the west that you can get away with it as part of the general collection of byzaboo trappings an autist who hangs out in places of historical discussion such as this will accumulate.

Also the theological structure of the byzantine empire is basically the foundation for all the coolest fantasy empires, and essentially, everyone wants to be orthodox inside with out even knowing it. Want to praise the emperor in reality? Want to have a real pious martial force and not just a bunch of savages some pope told can go slaughter? Gotcha covered! Endless wealth? Gilded everything? The ability to call literally everyone around you a barbarian? There are so many rewards to being a byzaboo, AND your eternal soul is covered in the process because you dont have to follow some fantasy corpse emperor or sigmar or something to fulfill your emperor-praising desires.

Byzaboo is the way forward for western civilization.

>>15165783
Eye for an eye suits them alot better. Felt like I was waging a guriella war.

So the religious fags who keep starting shit and shitposting are just pretending to be religious right? I find it hard to believe that actual christfags feel the need to constantly shit this place up for no reason.

>>151662140
You're not helping. Fuck off and they'll fuck off too

>>151661781
Because the older games have authentic army movements.

Troops don't run on rollerskates and move in 0.01 second as if everyone is a robot.

>>151662418
It's more the awful UI and incredibly tedious city management that kills it for me.

Also the physics and dancing matches are pretty silly.

How do you beat this?

>>151665997
The French Revolution was one of the best things that ever happened.
Gone were depotism and the subjugation and partition of peoples and nations.
Nationalism is the fire that was enkindled by the Revolution. Republicanism.
The Americanisation of European cultures leading to a cultural vacuum that blurred the lines between each and every nation and ethnicity started the West's decline.
