>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

I really, really, really just need to fucking vent. Because Steam is so fucking racist and misogynist, and Valve seems to refuse to want to get up off their lazy asses and fix it.
I'm a huge fan (Or rather I used to be a huge fan) of the Total War franchise, but one of the biggest gripes I've been having with the newer games is how whitewashed and streamlined everything's become. This really starts to show up after Shogun 2, and is a big reason why I'm not planning on bothering with future games . This is especially bad in Rome 2. Egyptians are Arabian looking even though Egyptians at that time period would've still looked ethnically "Black". Rome is 100% white for some reason. It's really, really embarrassing. So, thankfully, I've been able to find a few mods that corrected that:
http://i.imgur.com/ep2Fk3L.png
... Then I scrolled down to the comments:
http://imgur.com/9PPwOcj
Then I was like, "Oh, this can't be a pattern, there has to be another mod that maybe doesn't have a trash comments section-"
http://i.imgur.com/RvkwtMD.png http://imgur.com/9PPwOcj
GOSH. And so I went and checked this other guy's mods. Not only are they downvoted as hell, but...
http://imgur.com/QN9Otwo
So I went to the guy's page, and I noticed that he did a really interesting drawing of an Egyptian God...
http://i.imgur.com/TqxQSE5.png
Y'all Know what's coming
http://imgur.com/kKV3ql9
The worst part is that it's not even just this game that has this bullshit.
http://i.imgur.com/I128urs.png http://imgur.com/qj1DTMC
The same dude ended up doing a review calling out all of the racist comments. Just look at his "liked" ratio:
http://i.imgur.com/p08QOGy.png http://i.imgur.com/xkg9ipI.png
So at this point I'm 100% done. For the record, I actually HAVE reported all of these comments to Steam Support, but because Steam Support doesn't actually moderate for shit, these comments are still up. I just can't take it anymore.

>>152965919
Why do I love Vlad so much?
It's pretty simple when I think about it.
Vlad 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 Vlad 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, Vlad 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 Vlad is not one that is easily penetrated.
Vlad 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.
Vlad 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 Vlad. Do not stare into them. Many good men have gone mad in the attempt.
Vlad 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 Vlad, the entire Warhammer world, the entire Games Workshop as we know it crumbles.
The Reik would stop flowing without Vlad, 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 Vlad so much.

Well I did help in his downfall by weakening his armies and burning down some of his cities.

The AI is shit at countering Chaos. I've been thinking of downloading that mod that unites the entire Empire and dorfs, just to see how they deal with the invasion, but even then I think they're shit.

The only faction that can survive against Chaos has so far been VC in my experience. Their zombie stackspam lets them win several battles because of auto-resolve. Fuck, they even beat back Archaon once. They can only do this though if they're not at war with anyone else, which lets them focus their attention on the invasion.

To be honest I don't think that 70% makes much of a difference when you focus fire him with with half a dozen arty pieces.
Don't know how he stands up to anything less because he pretty much routed and went down before getting in range.

CA - If you want my money then listen here.
Now that i have your attention for this second lets not dilly dally.

More content = more profit is the line of thought. Start out with a skeleton of a game then add stuff through DLC. Totally legitmate way of earning money.

But here is the thing - not all of us are stupid as US people. They might happily give you money but us europeans are of another sort.

If I am to buy one more DLC for this game you better give more units and heroes and utilities than that. And for only Humans and Vamps - CA plz go home you are drunk.
-More units for dwarfes, orc and chaos faction. ( as the modding community has already done more than you in regards to unit upgrades so if you want me to buy than out shine the unpaid modders).
-Expand world map (lore friendly if possible)
- More spells if lore friendly - respect your universe g33ks(even if its not my own).

And people check out the workshops and other modding platforms for the same crap CA is about to make you pay for. Dont be stupid when you can stay cheap :D

Let's just say I was running a few mods I'm not using anymore. Pic related. It's one which boosts the stats from veterancy. I also had that mod which increased max level for lords to 60, and the one that gave a crapton of new skills. There are also upgrades from research in the image.

Also, he was called the Orc-Bane for a reason. Fucker was lvl 21 or so when that orc boss was around 2.

Fun Fact: That veterancy mod I mentioned? Yeah, I was using the one which had half the effects. HALF the effects.

‘I am the Final Moment made flesh. I stand here on this mountain, and I will sit on its throne. I will be the axis upon which the wheel of change turns, and the world will drown in the light of unborn stars.’ Archaon looked up. ‘Can you feel it, men of the Empire– can you feel the air tremble like a thing alive? Can you feel the heat of the fire that rages outside the gates of the world?’ He lowered his head, gazing at them, his expression unfathomable, hidden as it was within the depths of his helm. ‘The End Times are here, and there is no turning back. There is no past, no future, only now. Time is a circle and it is contracting about the throat of the world,’ Archaon said, making a fist for emphasis. ‘Why do you cling so to the broken shards of Sigmar’s lie? There is no afterlife. There is no reward, no punishment. Only death, or life.’

He makes a good point. Why do you guys continue this meaningless fight?

The Republicans push on the Royalist held south, seizing Toulouse but failing to claim control of Bordeaux after a lengthy back-and-forth series of siege assaults, thankfully the Royalist marshal Joel Babeuf has marched south from Strasbourg to assist in pushing back the Republicans.

The Second Battle of Toulouse will determine the fate of France.

While the Republican general Jean Baptiste Kleber prepares his discliplined ranks for battle, the young Officer Napoleon Bonaparte arrives from Paris with reinforcements.

The Royaliste cavalry advantage is crucial in this battle, if they can successfully silence the Republican artillery and allow their own to bombard the far superior Republican infantry (Or even hit a lucky strike on Jean or Napoleon themselves), the day will be the King's.

Posting a tender moment between Vlad and Mannfred.

>But no guards came, if there even were guards. None of his enemies came, to gloat or to accuse. He was left alone in the dark, without the sorcery that was his birthright. Worse than his lack of magics, he could feel the very stuff of him draining away, as if the trees above him were drawing sustenance from his bones. The magics that permeated him were being siphoned off, and likely transmuted into new and vibrant growths above. A vampire being vampirised, he thought, and not for the first time. Under different circumstances, he might even have seen the humour of it all. As it was, he filled his days with plotting ever more savage revenge schemes for the day of his inevitable freedom.

>And he would be free. That was the certainty which sustained him, even as his prison sought to suck the life from him. He had been buried before, more than once. Trapped in the dark. But he had always returned. Like Nagash himself, he had mastered death. It was not the end. He pushed himself to his feet. He looked up. ‘Do you hear me? It is not the end! I still live, and while I live, I…’ He trailed off. Someone was clapping. He whirled, a snarl splitting his features. ‘Who dares mock me? Show yourself!’

>‘“Who dares mock me,” he asks. Would you like a list?’ Vlad von Carstein said, as he stepped out of the shadows and stood before the cage. He seemed healthy for a dead man, Mannfred thought. For a moment, he allowed himself to hope that Vlad had come to free him. Then common sense reasserted itself, and he took a wary step back.

>‘Come to gloat, old man?’ Mannfred said. He glared at Vlad, wishing that he could kill with a glance. ‘Or maybe you’ve come to finally put me out of my misery. Well, took you long enough. I was beginning to wonder how many assassination attempts it would take…’

Well if you insist...

Seriously though I feel like the Beastie campaign was small and underwhelming. Wood elves however, I am looking forward to see what they do with them. I mean I shouldnt expect much since its going to be a dlc not a main game, but given that their forest is a spooky dimension, that we dont know much about how or where they live and the fact that not all the things that live there are peachy with them, the random humans wandering in and their conflict with the beastmen gives so much potential. If it ends up being a zoomed in forest with a couple of hordes im going to be dissapointed. Ill buy it cause I need my elf fix until the expansion, but still

>‘I’m not going to kill you, boy. The world has seen enough change, in my opinion.’ Vlad leaned against the roots that made up the bars of Mannfred’s prison and stared at him. ‘You are only alive because I asked him to spare you.’

>‘Did you really?’ Mannfred spat.

>Vlad smiled. ‘Well, not exactly. I pointed out that your suffering would make a better peace offering than your death. And Nagash, being, well, Nagash, thought that made sense.’

>‘Remind me to thank you at the first opportunity,’ Mannfred said.

>Vlad frowned. ‘I did it for you, boy. Whatever you think, whatever self-deluding lie is even now burrowing into the sour meat of what passes for your brain, know that what I did, I did for you.’ He leaned forwards, gripping the ancient roots. ‘You are still my… friend. My student. Even now. Even here.’

>‘And that is all I will ever be, as long as you walk this world,’ Mannfred said. He slid down the wall and sat. Hands dangling across his knees, he laughed bitterly. ‘I will always be in the shadow of giants. You, Neferata, Abhorash… even that old monster W’soran. You carved up the world before I realised what was happening.’ He smiled. ‘I wonder where they are now.’

>‘Neferata is doing what she has always done, boy. She rules.’

>Mannfred grunted. ‘Yes. She rules the land we bought in blood and fire.’

>Vlad chuckled. ‘Such is the way of queens.’ He leaned his head against the roots. ‘W’soran is dead, I think. If such a thing can die. Otherwise he would be here, with us, scheming away.’

>‘And Abhorash?’

>Vlad was silent for a moment. Then, ‘Abhorash fights. But he fights alone. He will not serve Nagash, or any man. Even so, some small part of the world will survive the coming conflagration, thanks to him. Where Abhorash stands, the enemy will never triumph.’

>Mannfred looked at him. ‘You know where he is,’ he said finally.

If that's true, then they apparently just have a company rule against mechanics that prevent the player from controlling a unit at all times. For instance, the Minotaurs' blood frenzy should include an inability to pursue a unit they'd broken due to their feasting on the corpses of the fallen. I'd have loved to see Minotaurs stuffing chunks of gore into their mouths and bellowing at the player to fuck off for 1 minute after every successful engagement. I'd really balance out their charge bonus.

>‘I’ve made it my business to know where my people are. Especially him. Walach’s bloodthirsty lunatics were but pale shadows of the Red Dragon. Even Krell would not be able to match him. There is nothing alive or dead in this world that can, I think.’ He sighed. ‘What I wouldn’t give to fight beside him once more.’ His gaze turned inwards, and his expression lost its mask of jocularity. Mannfred studied him in silence. For the first time in their long, often bitter association, Vlad looked his age– old beyond reckoning, and battered on the rocks of existence. ‘We should, all of us, the last sons and daughters of Lahmia, be here. We were the first, and we should be here at the last.’

>‘Life’s just not fair, is it?’ Mannfred said, spitefully. Vlad glared at him. He pushed away from the cage, and shook himself, as might one who has just awoken from a long dream.

>‘No, it is not. It is a beast, and it is always ravenous. It eats and eats, but is never satisfied.’ He tilted his head. ‘Do you remember the day we met? Do you remember the first lesson I taught you?’

>Mannfred said nothing. Vlad looked disappointed. ‘The first lesson was this… nothing stays the same. No matter how hard we fight, no matter how much we struggle, the world moves on. The world will always turn, empires will rise and fall, and if we are not careful, we will be drowned in the ocean of time. We must adapt and persevere.’

>‘That is what I was attempting to do, before you came back and ruined everything,’ Mannfred snarled. He shot to his feet and flung himself at the bars of his cage. He slammed into the roots and thrust his arm through, clawing for Vlad’s face.

>Vlad stepped back, out of reach. ‘Whatever ruin has been wrought, it was not my doing, but yours. It was your foolishness that saw Nagash resurrected, that saw the elven realms thrown into turmoil, and the Empire weakened in its darkest hour. You pulled down this house of cards, boy, not me. The Dark Gods exploited your hubris, and now we all must pay the price.’

>‘From where I stand, I seem to be paying the price for us all.’

>‘You might be the safest of us, boy. Here, hidden away in your living tomb. You’ll be safe from the fires that flicker on the horizon. It is my last gift to you.’ Vlad pulled his cloak tight about him. He smiled. ‘Rest now, my son. Your labours are over.’

>‘Vlad, do not leave me here,’ Mannfred hissed. ‘You cannot leave me here. You need me. Nagash needs me. I know things, Vlad– about your so-called allies, about our enemies– but I can’t tell you if I’m trapped here!’

>‘Nor can you try and use those secrets to benefit yourself at the expense of everyone else. I know you, boy. I know what monster drives you, and I know that if we are to have any hope at all, you must be left here, and forgotten.’ Vlad turned away. ‘Close your eyes and sleep, boy. Dream, and learn from your mistakes.’

>‘Vlad,’ Mannfred called out. Then, more loudly, ‘Vlad!’ The elder von Carstein did not stop, or even glance back. And soon, Mannfred was left alone in the dark once more.

Krell is the ultimate shitsmasher. Champion of Khorne from ages past that was so ridiculously overpowered in a universe of Mary Sues and Gary Stus that Nagash himself decided he should probably be resurrected to help conquer the world.

Victory for the King will draw the Civil War on that much longer, with the chance that one day he may return to Paris.

Victory for the Republic, and the Revolution is a success. The Anarchists are strong, but against a united France they have no chance.

This is the setup of the battle, A standard solid (don't expect it to stay that way) line of infantry, with a few key differences in support.

With the republicans deploying their artillery in the centre of the town of Labege, Babeuf instead decides to send his forces of Light infantry into the town, claiming the key fortifications and eliminating the guns.

On the right flank, the Cavalry forces have been hidden behind a collection of trees. This is the direction scouts have reported Officer Bonaparte to arrive in, so he intends to catch the reckless officer as he links with the main force.

Don't expect this battle to be an easy one from how outnumbered they seem. The Republicans have no regard for their own lives, and their stolen Parisian guns are accurate to a fault.

When the thunder of the muskets finally begin to ring out, Babeuf's plan begins. The Light Infantry swarm into the town, beating the artillery crews to death and claiming positions in the high windows of the settlement, from there, they can fire at the Republican ranks from behind.

A lucky artillery shot before the silencing hit one of the Cavalry regiments hard, killing twenty riders. Kleber and his traitor lacky Bonaparte are engaged though, with Klaber being tramped to death beneath a horses hoof, and Bonaparte being forced to flee the field.

One of the End Times books. They're actually very touching stories, since they're intended to be the final farewell to a universe that took forty years to build. It's amazing seeing all of the characters from decades and decades past coming together and seeing how they meet their ends; the issue is that EVERYONE meets their end in increasingly ridiculous ways because it's clear that they bit off more than they could chew, in much the same way as the Horus Heresy novels.

When the republican smells blood, he is more an animal than he was before. The revolutionary line holds, with Bonaparte's reinforcements putting pressure on the right flank, forcing Babeuf to ride to the line himself to cheer the men on.

>"Hold, hold! mighty sons of Royal France, do you want to live forever?"

Unfortunately, one of the cavalry regiments is forced to withdraw, while the other rides south to free up the Royalists fighting in the town.

The main line however, continues to buckle.

Smoke clouding the battlefield, both forces soon find themselves face to face, grabbling and stabbing at eachother in a bloody fury, the banner of the Monarch fluttering above the carnage.

Thankfully, this was the peasant rabble of the Revolutionary army they were fighting, not the seasoned soldiers who battle on the north side of the battlefield. When they rout, the battle is suddenly shifted on it's axis.

When through the smoke all they hear is the screams of the dying and all they see is the odd horse or two riding past them riderless and panicked. The right flank of the Royalist line completely shatters.

As if it was planned, all Republican forces who decided to run earlier in the battle began to turn back and rejoin the fight!

Labeuf had to act fast if he was going to win this battle and preserve the Monarchy. He immediately ordered all reserve forces who were resting in the town forwards to face the rebels. Now is the moment of victory or defeat.

Stop spreading lies. Slaaneshi factions are still a thing in AoS. They get fluff and and art. Guess what? They have as much boobs in them as before.

There are rumours about Slaaneshi content release after the Tzeentch, duadrins, and Aelf releases.

Marshal Joel Babeuf surveys the battlefield, pauses, and then dismounts.

If he was to lost this battle, he would rather die in the fields of France than on the guillotine of the mob.

Following the horns of the royal hussars, Babeuf's infantry charged onwards, routing the rebels.

The disciplined soldiers still remained however, though they were looking less than pleased.

Well, those who weren't the Republican Guard anyway, who stood at the fore of the battle cutting down man after man with their volleys. Even the words of their general could not stop them from running.

A loud thunder-like boom explodes across the battlefield, before a chunk of the Republican Guard explodes into bloody gibblets.

From the hill of Belberaud, the Royal artillery had now turned it's grapeshot to their new target, not even these monsters of men could stand against it.

And so they fled alongside their brothers, and the day belonged to the king.

Look at the devastation. The battlelines rotated themselves almost 360 degrees, with the Republican infantry tearing my men apart in both melee and range.

When the dusk came, 3516 bodies lay in the fields and streets of Labege.

With more than 60% of his Royalist Army dead, Joel Babeuf could now raise the flag of the King atop the city of Toulouse.

This wasn't even a fraction of the army residing in Paris, and yet it had cost Babeuf more than a thousand lives. If he was to finally march on Paris and restore the Monarchy, he would have to revisit his approach, favouring his advantages and downplaying the weaknesses.

Thanks, I've seen mixed responses to other people posting dumps of single battles instead of their longer campaigns. I thought I'd give it a go anyway since it was a fairly interesting scenario.

The Royalists have really nothing going for them with their roster, especially against the buffed up French Republic. You really have to do everything you can to tip every battle.

Doesn't help that I left the unit mods option enabled which the launcher says not to turn on for this scenario, So I've got late 18th century french infantry facing Napoleonic Legions

No, the butthurt belt ends there where ex-Yugoslavia begins, but truth be told, most East European countries suffer from the same"small country with a big history" syndrome.Basically, they were once very powerful and influential countries who got conquered and subsequently pooped on by their neighbors who had a long-lasting score to settle with them.

I've started playing Rome: Total War again and I've got some questions regarding assassins:

What happens if I, as a roman faction, murder generals from other roman factions (before the civil war)?

Can I murder allied/neutral generals without going at war with their factions?

How do I train these idiots? Killing a rebel general is a 31% chance and they fuck it up most of the time, resulting in their death.

pretty sure it depends on the level of the settlement being sieged

What is the most powerful unit lore wise, no special characters included.

Could any unit aside from blood knights and maybe grail knights beat a chosen unit 1v1?
>>
>>153010662
Define "special" characters.
Slann are the strongest mages, Bloodthirsters are probably the strongest single combat units but they're big daemons and so not that common. Fluffwise, you could probably argue that blood knights are the strongest warriors since being a vampire automatically puts them above most other warriors, and they're extremely skilled and experienced on top of that.

I was being patient with it, I wasn't just attacking literally everybody, and after a certain point you just become a steamroller so I don't know if I'd want to get to 100k a turn.

The Abrams is NBC-proof. It could withstand a nuclear fallout. The giant would never get in range before being blown to bits.
>>
>>153023162
Just recruit more armies, do you really need people to tell you that?
>>
>>153023193
There's no "a" there, I'm not sure it could withstand a meteor, or magic that is literally just there to kill people regardless of their surroundings, and if there were enough giants, or maybe just two coming from opposite directions, or an ambush?

In the time the meteor falls from the sky the abrams would have been out of there. I'm sure the Abrams could withstand a hit on its frontal armor.

Grimgor is actually fairly underwhelming for an Ork.

Maybe thats because he doesn't scream enough. "SAY MY NAME" sounds fucking retarded.

>>153023554
There have been plenty of combat losses, it's just that those are generally repaired afterwards. The Abrams has great crew suitability.

What I honestly think?

They have a monopoly on the Total War style of game. The combination of grand strategy and RTS is pretty unique, and every game that has tried to copy it (The King Arthur games, the LOTR games) has failed.

It's even worse with Warhammer, because they know that we know that this is the last big game Warhammer Fantasy will probably ever get. It's the Warhammer game most people have been waiting a decade for. They can charge for every bit of the game and sell a bunch of copies because most people don't really have a choice.

As much as I like CA, they're starting to remind me of Valve. Making poor business decisions for customers, but getting away with it because there is no competition. I wish another company would come around and make some really great Total War style games to kick CA's ass back into shape.

>>153026037
Deliberate destruction. The ammo compartment probably blown by the crew to avoid capture.
>>

>>
>>153026278
Depends on the anime, I suppose.

I don't watch anime, so I don't really know of any that would make for a good Total War game.
>>
>>153026208
LOTR TW style games?!
>>
>>153026320
Fuck it, I give up. I'm just going to leave you with the fact that the RPG-29 exists and is more than capable of penetrating the armor of an Abrams. .
>>
>>153026369
Yeah, there were the Battle for Middle Earth games.

They were really mediocre
>>
>>153026404

Anyone who carries it would be killed before they get into range :^)
>>
>>153026404
A penetrating hit does not guarantee a kill. A mob/firepower kill is not the same as a k kill.
>>
>>153026440
Looking at them now. Meh indeed.
>>
>>153026534
A mission kill is still a kill.
>>
>>153026551
I'd kill for an actual LOTR Total War game. The mod for Medieval II is pretty good, but it would pale in comparison to a real, full fledged LOTR Total War game.
>>
>>153026469
Because if anybody ever attacks, they do it one by one in the same direction at the same time, while not taking evasive action. There are no hills, bushes, trees, rivers, rocks, or any foliage whatsoever either.
>>
>>153026594
Not a kill because the vehicle can be towed back for repairs.
>>
>>153026551
>>153026440

They were also horrifically unbalanced.
>Gandalf kills my entire screen spanning army with one spell

>>153026604

>>153026671

>>
>>153022965
I know but the AI seems to go for total victory. Which is fine for campaign map gameplay but that's not why I play total war.

I just want to fight siege battles with a hope of winning.

TWWH has the easiest sieges in the series, probably only beaten by attila. You need to get fucking good if you're losing them.
>>
>>153026810
You can repair mission killed vehicles you moron. If you couldn't then it would be a k kill.

Anon, this is why you don't argue with trolls/autism.

You'll never win. The winning move is not to play their game.

>>153027018
Each region has one walled city and the rest are towns with no walls but you can get extra barricades and shit. The sieges are way more detailed though and they have different levels and capture points and shit

>>153027706

>Actually, I have no idea what you just said.

HESH is basically a complicated high explosive. Rivets when exposed to high explosives can sheer off their caps sending the metal bolt inside the metal compartment filled with people, material, and other shit you don't want to get hit by super fast metal bolts.

it's why every combat ship and tank swapped to welding.

That piece of metal can't protect them from the Steam tanks superior Steam cannon. They'll be cooked in seconds.
