>IS CALL OF THE BEASTMEN WORTH BUYING?
The Beastmen are a cool faction but the pack is a bit overpriced for what you get. There probably won't be a price drop for some time, so if you really like the Beastmen then go ahead, otherwise wait it out.

>OVERCASTING SPELLS
Double click a spell (it needs to be a boostable spell and you need to have enough magic in the magic pool) to overcast the spell
There's a 50% chance that the caster damages itself though!

>QUEST BATTLE TELEPORT
Select your lord (make sure not garrisoned or in a stance)
Select the quest battle (on the map or through quest log)
There's a button in the bottom right of the quest battle window that you can use to teleport for 5k gold (when the battle's finished you're automatically teleported back to your original position)

>GROUP ATTACK
Group units with ctrl + g
Select your group and right click the enemy
All your units move and automatically direct themselves to engage enemies they get close to while maintaining formation

Think about it Warhammer has flying units and tanks.

>WW1 doesn't work with TW
I don't agree with this, but I do think CA would need to push the envelope for bigger armies and maps. But I would like to see stuff like creating trench lines by having a certain buildings built in settlements to connect them (fall of the samurai railroad) or some kind of army stance that blocks off a large area and forces the attacker to fight you on a special trench map.

>>152441817

Mannfred_of_the_Night.jpg
69KB, 678x866px
Why do I love Mannfred so much?
It's pretty simple when I think about it.
Mannfred isn't just the best character in the Warhammer world, he might just be the greatest character of all time.
Just imaging him riding through the swamps of Sylvania, the wind in his hair, his mighty steed below him.
As he rides through the World's Edge Mountains, the Lahmians swoon at his very scent.
They know how he smells, the essence of his smell is sold in Marienburg under the the name of "Carstein Orgasm."
The very nature of Mannfred is mystery.
Could he be playing a deeper game than even his creator realizes?
The answer is yes, he has transcended such boundaries as the written world, and has free will to do whatever he sees fit.
However, Mannfred is filled with such guile, such arcane craft that he does not even use these powers.
Why, you might ask? You will never know, for the mind of the Mannfred is not one that is easily penetrated.
Mannfred is such a force of nature in his realm that nothing can truly touch him, the only thing keeping him bound to the page at all is his will to exist within the preordained boundaries of his world.
Mannfred is not only beyond the comprehension of us, he exists within a plane of true focus and beauty.
Observe his playful smile, his gorgeous and rippling biceps, his gallant nose, and most importantly, his eyes.
His eyes, like pools of saffron, provide the only glimpse into the true machinations of Mannfred. Do not stare into them. Many good men have gone mad in the attempt.
Mannfred is not just a character, a formless collection of words and images, he is himself is the binding that holds the Warhammer world together.
Without Mannfred, the entire Warhammer world, the entire Games Workshop as we know it crumbles.
The Reik would stop flowing without Mannfred, Athel Loren would become a desolate crater, and Norsca would melt without his frosty gaze.
These are just of a few of the reasons why I like Mannfred so much.
>>
>>152442834
WW1 didn't see 160 men clustered together in formation when they charged the enemy. You didn't have 160 men pile into a building that wasn't significantly large. There wasn't a whole lot of urban warfare in WW1 to my knowledge.

Point is, once you don't have organized formations being utilized, it isn't really TW anymore imo.
>>
>>152442928

it's between empire and rome 2 for me

the reason is because both experimented with very different shit but failed and were very unpolished or took multiple months before they were not broken piles of shit.
>>
>>152443795
The problem with trench warfare is that trench warfare acts as a continuous battle. That's the reason why 'fronts' became a thing, the entire border of your countries are basically battlelines and "flanking" your enemy consists of punching a hole and blitzing through it.
>>
>>152443891
I understand that, I'm just having trouble articulating exactly why it just doesn't really work in TW. I would be down for a campaign map game set in WW1, but you are going to have to get very creative with the battles and can't really do it like you can in TW.
>>
>>152444002
As far as I am concerned, Total War battles simply stop working the moment formations stopped being a thing. Hell even the current system makes shit like guerilla wars hard - you either have 160 brigands in one place or you have none at all and they have to turn as a group before firing this is the one fucking thing that Waarscape has no fucking excuse for, if the longbows are in position then fucking fire who cares if two or three people are lagging behind
>>
What Total War game has your favorite tech tree? (race in Warhammer)

I'd have to say Rome 2. While the first 3 are no brainers (growth, far right tree), there's a good bit of choice to go for after that. Attila's is probably the worst, as it's quite short and you generally go for whatever unlocks unit upgrades followed by economy.

>Waarscape has no fucking excuse for, if the longbows are in position then fucking fire who cares if two or three people are lagging behind

Did that happen in earlier games, my memory is tinted because I haven't played them in forever
>fixed easily
I don't get it, what does that do? I'm just complaining about the entire unit apparently needing to rotate before firing and thereby getting fucking swamped by swordsmen before they can even let off a volley

>>152444358
How does one transition into 'WWI' technology without transitioning into trench warfare? The reason why people didn't trench immediately was literally because they didn't realize right away how disgustingly efficient a machinegun and heavy artillery are at just stopping offensives.
>>
>>152444307
>Did that happen in earlier games
in a slightly different way, the units didn't have to turn, but a few men in the unit would get stuck in an animation and refuse to move, which made skirmishing with them nearly impossible

>entire unit apparently needing to rotate before firing
having a 360 firing arc means they dont ever have to turn
>>
>>152444358
The point is that WW1 was a turning point for military tactics. People realized you couldn't rely on formations and throwing bodies at a problem purely because of airstrikes and long range artillery. Warhammer is a good example, imo. Look at the Empire's mortars and rocket batteries - they destroy anything human like before they know what's hit them. Now imagine those being WW1 age howitzers raining down on you. Your formation isn't going to do shit except get more men killed while making the enemy's job easier.
>>
>>152444515
Yeah but that's cheap as fuck don't you think

>>152444548
Not really airstrikes and rocket artillery, that's WW2 - WW1 was just barbed wire, poison, machinegun spam that just completely gutted any offensive, and heavy artillery.
>>
>>152443891
What if attacking a trench was like setting up a siege where either side can attack and both take attrition but if you sally on either side and don't win then the siege continues. And if you try to abandon the trench you have to fight some kind of retreat battle and get to set up a rear guard during deployment.
>>
>>152444515
>but a few men in the unit would get stuck in an animation and refuse to move
Ah yes
Good old M2

>>152444668
But see that's just not how it worked. In WW1 after the Race to the Sea the battlefronts barely fucking moved until the brits brought in tanks and the Americans arrived and Germany was literally bled dry of an entire generation. You'd lose 99% of your army getting to the other side, imagine literally 400 Attila Towers in front of the gate.

Just because it would be new for TW doesn't mean it couldn't work or wouldn't be the same in essence. Especially eastern front where the trenches didn't develop to the same extreme and armies were still able to push. This all would obviously be a huge investment in new mechanics on CAs part so whatever probably would never happen but that's not to say they couldn't do it or that it wouldn't be total war.

Well sure but you said 'into WWI tech'. I'm just not seeing how it could work, as I said almost everyone died before reaching the other side on the western front. The game usually isn't 'try to charge under what amounts to 20 Germanic Slingers on eternal Precision Shot with three times as much range and die before you get halfway there', it's about 'epic' battles. Dying 200 meters away from the frontline during a bayonet charge where your troops are eternall 'shaken' morale isn't quite what we call 'epic'.

Yeah typing this all out has actually made me reconsider. If we got a Victorian game it should be limited to that. I'd like a WW1 game but it would need to be limited to that and have a tech transition of its own. I think the idea of western front trench warfare could be done in total war but very different from what we're used to with with your armies basically being in permanent siege because neither your or the ai want to lose everything or when you do try and sally it doesn't create a decisive result or if you do win the ai or you just set up more trenches deeper in and you have to push for tech like early tanks and aircraft.

I think there is a mod for Napoleon called The Great War which does an OK job but, there's a lot it doesn't do so well. Total War just isn't capable of modeling new tactics developed during WWI.

You mean vassals right?
The post mentioned only people attacking his vassal. Which does function the same as in paradox titles. If you're referring to a function where the vassal declares war on others and calls the overlord in, I'm unfamiliar with it. It wasn't mention in the post I'm replying to, and I haven't had a vassal in a total war game for something like five years now.

Yeah I would have preferred if they were special embbedable units only. Maybe with 2 rolls like in the other games, one as an army advisor that doesn't take a slot, and one as a soldier that does
>>
>>152457194
maybe they will get an overhaul in one of the sequels
>>
>>152457246

I get the feeling that they're suppose to be this very utility-like thing that can make sieges easier, or soften up armies or take our minor army-leaders (which again, all sounds very Skaven).

But the AI milks the shit out of them, and rightfully so, they're super fucking good and usually worth the cost versus the risk of them achieving anything.

Nothing sucks more than getting an army all the way to Mannfred's door, and preparing for this massive final showdown only to have some banshee cunt ruin everything.

Except it totally is though. It's getting a couple of full expansions with more land and more races as well as more races as DLC.

The expansions are a confirmed thing.
>>
>>152457469
imo, one of the problems is how easy some are to recruit - empire captains, banshees, the ones that can be built en masse with no effort. Captains only require a L3 barracks and banshees a T3 thing. Both buildings give +1 to maximum capacity, and cause every city can build em, there's gonna be loads.

As you say about making sieges easier - this is generally not the case. It's only useful when you're moving the army towards the settlement. Once it's under siege, you cannot perform agent actions on the army inside or the settlement itself. It's beyond retarded.

>>152457648

2 expansions - Chaos Divided and another. Game files say so. Other one I think is Dark Elves and Lizardmen on a separate map with another Chaos invasion. Supposedly they are standalone but can be merged with the main game map for a super-duper grand campaign.
>>

They said from the beginning that to get everything in the game they plan on one or two big expansions.

The obvious one is the new world with Lizardmen, Dark Elves and High Elves.

The second one, as leaked in the plan document is supposed to be one faction for each chaos god. But CA have said that said leak was old and their decisions have changed around a bit.

Are you simple? They charge $20 for the beastmen, but you need a citation to conclude that 3-5 races with their own giant campaign map will be full priced. No surprise really seeing how stuck you are on the word expansion.

Are you actually retarded, like seriously

What the flying fuck do you think the races are going to do? magically spawn on the map as it is? They have to do all the same work they did for the campaign pack as they have to do with the standalone. Which means $20 per faction, which means $60 at least for the standalone.

Chaos is mostly just reused assets of other things though. Animations, unit types, stats, plus it's a horde faction that doesn't need any mapwork done.

Beastmen have entirely new skeletons, animations, textures, unit types amongst other things.

Yes I do think that you fucking autist. Not every faction pack is going to have a mini campaign forced down our throats to recup the costs of making the new factions. It's not impossible that the elves and lizardmen expansion with naval battles could end up a full $60 but you literally don't have any proof.

Are they actual unique skeletons, though, or just modified human ones? Because that's more than likely what they will do with Elves, too.
>>
>>152460337
DLC prices aren't comparable to standalone releases, as prices must be higher to compensate for the smaller market of potential buyers. Warhammer has potential to sell millions, while any of the dlc can only sell as many copies as the base game, which is around 800k.

I never said this nice projection. CA has said that they intend to have all the major factions playable and they clearly left a bunch of space to the south and east and west do you think that was just for fun? You can keep believing there's going to be 3 GCs then retard because 2 standalone expansions with their own mini campaigns (note mini means number of factions not the number of settlements for what I'm talking about so I would expect them to be closer to FOTS) makes way more sense to me.

Not him but what are you smoking? A minicampaign is a totally separate campaign not on the main campaign map. The standalones add new factions to the main campaign map. There are no minicampaigns in the standalones.

How exactly are you going to play a standalone if all it does it add to the GC of the main game? I'm saying it's going to expand the GC but also have a campaign that's more focused on the new area that you can play if you just own the standalone.

There are three Warhammer games. We have the first, the other two come out later. Each are entirely separate based on entirely separate areas of the map with entirely different factions unless you buy the others in which case they all combined into one grand campaign map. The end.

The thing I like about Warhams is that there really is a lot they can add. I really hope they add a proper mercenary system with all the Dogs of War units - I'm assuming 'Regiments of Renown' function similarly but are more faction-specific rather than having all these Estalian/Tilean dudes.
I hope they do Kislev, shouldn't be too much work.

Since Empire will have 3, Vampires 3 and Chaos already have 3, it's going to be either Dwarfs, Greenskins (Wurrzag is mentioned in events) or Beastmen (Unlikely, as you have to pay for Beastmen on top of RoR then).

Oh I hadn't seen that before. So I guess it would be something like if you buy the new world expansion you can still go to the old world but you can't play any of those factions without owning the main TWW.
>>
>>152466480
I kind of doubt that you would be able to go to the old world if you don't own TW:W. Seems like a lot of bloat for something you can't really do anything with. It would be even worse if Helves, Delves and Lizardmen couldn't settle anything there either. It'd basically be a giant ad. If it does end up like that, I doubt they'd do $60 for it. Probably closer to $45. But this is Sega/CA, so probably $80.
>>
>>152466726
The old world factions will most likely be locked but you will still be able to go there.

>>152466726
Which is why it'd be nice if CA gave us something more than this abstract bullshit about how the game and the two expansions are standalone but also all 3 combine.

Well CA did say that it wouldn't be impossible for regional occupation to stop being a thing after the expansions, but at this point with how they said some plans have already changed who fucking knows. Early Access games sure are fun.

What's the matter between CA and flags anyway? Back in ETW and NTW we have beautiful flying flags. In S2 the flags are stiffened with poles, but still flutters in the wind a bit.

R2 and Attila has cardboard flags, and now in Warhammer we have no flagbearers at all. WTF happened?

There is literally no time period in human history that is more interesting for warfare, other than either modern or futuristic.

Pike and shot is just a reference to the time period twat, there was a HUGE amount of other weapons commonly used.

My brothers!

Today marks a new day for the men of the Southern Realms! As we speak our stalwart allies of the Silver Road are besieged by unfathomable numbers of the greenskin horde, their numbers so massive they even hold our grand jewel of Akendorf under siege. As the petty kingdoms of the Empire bicker and war amongst each other completely unawares of the scope of the foe we face, only we are left to stand vigil against the green tide.

But no more will we suffer the indignities of the orcs continued existence! For today we have found the Savage's leader, an Orc of incredible size and skill by the name of Grimgor! Today it will be the freemen of the world will will deliver these savages a wound so dire they will have no choice but to limp back to their caves in utter defeat!

The only thing that will run more than the savage's blood will be the finest Dwarven Ale and Estalian Wine when we march back home victorious! All Freemen will sing songs of this day and every man who falls here shall have his name known throughout history, for it will be criminals and crooks abandoned by the Empire that rose to the clarion call of war! Men of the South!

Steel yourselves for the battle to come, for it will be like none we have seen before!

Through a daring series of feints, a squad of knights manages to circumvent what paltry backline defenses the orc thought to hold in reserve and make contact with the orcish support. At the same time, the artillery which Grimgore assuredly counted on to turn the battle in his favor has been decimated by our vanguard who now move to support the main line of battle.

Disaster strikes as Grimgore fells our general. As his final command he orders all available crossbowmen to fire on his position to further wound the savage, which they follow without hesitation.
While our ranged cavalry have finally made it to the battle line and begun inflicting great casualties on the orcish ranged groups, our knights are not so lucky. Of our two squads one is currently tied up by goblin spearmen, while the other was cut down to the last, successfully distracting the entirety of the orc's cavalry and all their remaining anti-cavalry units.

I thought at least Gors would be marginally useful.

Well if they're not an army to hold the line and just ambush people, better get to work on all that vanguard deployment and minotaurs.

There have been numerous undisputable masterpieces in total war modding, such as the strikingly realistic classic Europa Barbarorum or its medieval counterpart Stainless Steel. Radious mod will not join their ranks; its surface is too generic, its presentation too provocative and its messages too obscure. Its take on the abysmal is an illumination in one person’s despair, but a paroxysm of another’s perversion. It will remain underground ? treasured by the most avant-garde among intellectuals for its edifying if horrifying insight into the fundaments of human morality. Philistines and self-proclaimed critics alike will shun Radious mod, but you can’t fault them for that. It takes wisdom to appreciate its subtleties, and courage to side with the unpopular opinion. Sed domi maneas paresque nobis novem continuas fututiones.


Superficially, Radious mod appears to be a mod which caters to the most proletarian among men; aloof critics dismiss it as such often without a second thought. As complacent as these self-proclaimed "understanders of strategy" are, they fail to realize that Radious mod is a cult classic, a chef d'oeuvrea buried under false preconceptions and unfounded criticism. This gem is hidden because it does not shine; it is buried because its tone is that of abyssal black. Radious mod pries into to the darkest corners of our subconscious, the most visceral of our cognition, the most carnal of our urges, and the most primal of our instincts.

As brilliantly put by Cattalus, "Pedicabo ego vos et irrumabo"; to describe the artistic qualia of Radious mod would be to describe music to the deaf, color to the blind or beauty to the philistine. The painting speaks for itself, and it is up to the player to fully absorb its depth. Its sublimity will ever be debated yet always remain objectively irrefutable; the fundamental insight it provides into human and perhaps animalistic nature may shape the basis of Total War modding for centuries to come.

>>152491503
Yeah I guess that's true. Must also be why they got caught way in front of my main line of men-at-arms, and spent the whole battle fighting in a sea of peasents
>>
>>152491889
Gors and ungors are just there to hold the line while the real units do work.

The gors with shields/axes and archers are good as a stealth ambush force to attack their army in the back while the gors hit the front.

Yeah, I like them. I just feel like the whole early game insanity could be fixed if goblin spider riders with spears were moved down to the first tier of the building and then bump the archer variants up to the second tier. This way they have something they have some sort of counter beyond getting lucky until later units.

Depends on the units involved and the situation they're in.

The campaign gameplay introduce shitloads of new mechanics and they made a game that rome should have been in the first place

The only new idea is razing but there's nothing bold about that. You're just trying to use buzzwords to try and make the game look better than it is. By your logic Warhammer innovates on a bigger scale than Attila, and since attila is built upon rome 2 it is the best game in the series.

in all honesty though CA and Sega have earned my eternal respect for tricking fantasy kiddies into thinking they spent 60$ on a good game

Ah, yes. Of course. Thanks to remind me how it lacks proper naval battles.

Why would they dumbed down naval battles in R2 and Attila:
>no wind direction
>no wind-sail direction speed cooficient
>no grappling hook to secure boarding attacks
>no gradual sinking
>marines if miss landing spot would clip and die instead of climbing the ship
>no multiple type marine+seamen+crew per ship unit, 1 ship=1 kind of crew
>no destroying specific part=reduced mobility (it was sail, oar destroying should be possible in R2 if they want to)
>ship captain, helmsman, and first mate positioned randomly on ship (scratch that, R2/Attila doesn't even have helmsman, first mate in the first place)
>only 2 type of engine possible (instead of 7)
>no differing arc of fire for different engines
