>IST RUF DER TIERMENSCHEN WERT GEKAUFT ZU WERDEN?
Die Tiermenschen sind eine coole Fraktion aber das Gesamtpaket ist ein wenig zu teuer für das was man bekommt. Es wird wahrscheinlich keine Angebote in nächster Zeit geben, also wenn du die Tiermenschen wirklich magst dann hol sie dir, sonst warte.
>ZAUBER ÜBERLADEN
Doppelklicke einen Zauber (es muss ein überladbarer Zauber sein und du musst genug Magie im Magiebecken haben) um ihn zu überladen
Es gibt allerdings eine 50% Chance, dass sich der Zauberer selbst schadet!
>ZU QUESTKÄMPFEN TELEPORTIEREN
Selektiere deinen Herrn (stelle sicher, dass er nicht stationiert ist oder sich in einem Stand befindet)
Wähle den Questkampf (auf der Karte oder im Questprotokoll)
Dort gibt es einen Schalter unten rechts im Questkampffenster mit dem man sich um 5.000 Gold teleportieren kann (wenn der Kampf abgeschlossen ist, wird man automatisch an seine Ausgangsposition zurückteleportiert)
>GRUPPENANGRIFF
Gruppiere Einheiten mit Strg + G
Selektiere die Gruppe und rechtsklicke den Gegner
Alle deine Einheiten suchen sich automatisch den nächstgelgenen Gegner den sie bekämpfen können während sie in Formation bleiben

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.
Wood Elves soon.

Nah man, I was the GM. many friends I played with still are asking me to start again, I just burned myself out, as I said. Maybe if there was a good GM so I can play it for a change would be fine, because I got way to lazy to write scripts all over again.

Ah I see, were you the GM all the time then? I've been GMing 40k and WFRP for years, and I feel like I would get burnt out too if I didn't have the odd campaign or two where I was a player.
>because I got way to lazy to write scripts all over again.
Have you tried ready-made scenarios or just improvising dialogue and such?
>>153247492
French a best
To the anon that asked about possible Empire starts at VH or L - The alternative to this is that you secure Reik, declare war on all dorf enemies and get in favour with them for trade, fight orcs, if you can, make peace with them ASAP.
Wait for Marienburg to declare war on northern alliance. Then attack Marienburg and grab the whole province. I usually keep a unit of mounted ranged fuckers there to defend. Nuln is then one option, which I do like to take cause I make my cannon there, but also taking minor towns from Boris is an option. I do this cause they draw norse cunts to attack them and leave Reik or West alone.
Depending on the vamps, you see where to expand. I usually kill of Boris and fortify Middenheim. Hochland - Middenheim -Talabecland point is where i usually make my stand against chaos.
>>153247492
It's a good thing though. There's no point in demonising nudity or sex.

>Have you tried ready-made scenarios or just improvising dialogue and such?
Yea. ready made scenarios are cool.
And improvising was my thing, Players loved it. But I was always upset that if I would have written it befoe it would have been even better.
But yea, The Inquisitor might be the inspiration that will make me play again. Time to rev up those Handbooks.

So basically Slayers.

>>153247776
Yeah, I find that a loose flowchart of potential events with improvisation to fill out the details is the best way to go. Doesn't feel like you're railroading that much then.
Good luck, if you're using roll20 and looking ofr players I'd be happy to join in. Our group are in a campaign atm, but when we're done I might be looking for new hands too.

Good to know that pen and paper is still alive and kicking, to some degree. Cheers and good luck with your campaign.

Every single dwarf campaign is just one big fight to the death with these shits, I just wanna head west and meet up with my empire friends.
First for Fote update when?
>>153250867
The first 20-30 turns in every dwarf campaign are brutal, especially if you take black crag in the first 3-5 rounds.
>>153246882

>>153251254
What's the best way to pacifiy badlands anyway? Go south of the silver road and take the whole east or take the upper west first?
I usually go south of the silver road but iron rock and bel's sorrow always give me a headache to defend
>>153251460
Pretty sure the key is to secure your north for that gold mine, get two armies, get iron rock, get black rock, and just push west with two armies and one left behind to protect your lands from the south.
>>153251460
Well many suggest taking mount gunbad ASAP since it helps with money, but I've found that its best to head for black crag since you should really kill the greenshits early, esp. before grimgor becomes unstopable and it also prduces gold so it will help if you're having money issues
>>153250312No idea, but I'm sure they'regross.I'd give it a go anyway.

>>153253248
Legend of the Galactic Heroes
>>153253248
Legend of the Galactic Heroes has political intrigue, set piece battles and generals, but its in space with humans only. The scope is just right, though, focusing on generals and grant strategy with very little "action" from the protagonists.
There are fantasy anime, but none I know of that hit that tone. The closest would be the Heroic Legend of Arslan, which isn't that great.
For historical /twg/, Hyouge mono is a good look at the Shogun era.

>>153254939
>the faction is on the other side of the map
>all their agents are level 15 minimum
>>153254939
>not having maximum amount of agents at all times in total war game
>>153255332
It's a pain in the ass to get agents early on as dwarfs, and you immediately start getting assassination grudges as soon as you have one.
>>153253859
Mos of that is less evil and more them trying to stop people of stealing their shit.
>>153253859
>>153255669
Do they even go on campaign to empire lands or dwarfholds?
Or do they just sort of react to invasions.
>>153255171
There really needs to be some way to train agents.
Nothing worse than having one of your late game agents knocked out by a 1% critical failure and having to spend 50+turns to get a new one that's barely on par
>>153255791
Settra once raided Norsca.
>>153254119
this
>>153255791
They can do invasions, either by a lower end Tomb king getting pissy or in trying to reclaim some treasure that's been stolen.
Or just to fuck off the vampire counts. They really hate those Vampires.
>>153254673
Morathi is cute. CUTE!

>>153256209
Destroy Vampire Counts.
>>153256209
Ensure that Nagash is weak.Kill manlet
>>153256209
Impossible to say until we know what their campaign gimmick is. Dwarfs have their victory conditions tied to grudges, so it's possible that Tomb Kings will have an equally frustrating mechanic to deal with. Recover XYZ macguffins, kill XYZ trespassers, remove Vamp stench, ensure Archaon is in a wounded state.

>>153256651
Honestly they kind of have been? So far they've been really happy with how Warhammer has been received and even how the DLC so far as gone over.
From what I remember it sounds like they're going to push to make more content going forward because of it.
It's mostly come up from comments on streams/reddit. idk if anyone's been screen capping or not though.

The Youtube description for The Grim & The Grave starts with "Following the best-selling Call of the Beastmen the first Lord Pack for Total War: WARHAMMER introduces two new Legendary Lords from Warhammer Fantasy Battles"
Obviously what "Best selling" means isn't exactly clear, so take it with a grain of salt.
>>153257539
>Critical failure only wounds, never kills.
But that's wrong. There's a separate roll for it but agents can die on a crit.
>>153258127
An agent performing an action getting a critical failure can only wound. An agent having an action performed against them results in either success (wound) or critical success (death).

Europe has always been sort of fine with nudity, especially France and Spain.
Especially Spain. Jesus fuck, there is not a single movie in Spain that doesn't feature some kind of nudity or sex. I mean, Jesus fuck, when I studied spanish in school we got to watch a spanish movie, and it had a dreamsequence where a guy was dreaming he was super tiny and was crawling all over a womans body, and then entered her vagina. It was all real actors, and the vagina was some fuckhuge prop and shit.
I mean, goddamn.Pretty good movie though, was about a woman I think who was in coma, and a male nurse who fell in love with her or something.

Also, fuck GW for making Brets so goddamn rigid. What's that, want professional soldiers? FUCK YOU, peasants or nobles only.
Only that peasants have to wear shit because they supply their own armor. And nobles are only allowed to fight on horseback. So yeah, fuck you if you want to add new stuff.

roll
Dragon ogres or dragon ogre shaggoths? I tried out kholek and 19 shaggoths but their aoe is so tiny it makes battles drag out a lot and you have to manually fight every battle because autoresolve is retarded and thinks 2 stacks of marauders, dogs, and marauders with greatweapons can doing anything other than constantly route.
>>153267178
Yeah, cavalry and anything with low troop counts will fuck up auto-resolve. I went with Khazak and 19 Centigors because fuck yeah why not, and I had to manually fight every single battle in the game.
Got insanely tiring.
>>153267383
>>153267178
You all know nothing compared to Vanilla Rome 2's auto resolves

>Auto Resolve
>Literally all of my elephants die
>Have to do each and every battle manually because if I don't, I lose all of my elephants
I remember fighting just a general, and even when I auto resolved that I lost 1 unit of elephants. A whole fucking unit.
>>153267798
I miss the history meme images
>>153246882
DO IT AGAIN BOMBER HARRIS!!!
>>153267798
>and even when I auto resolved that I lost 1 unit of elephants. A whole fucking unit.
It's the same in WH. It's been sort of fixed now with the patch, but before they would almost always soak up all damage and die first.
Also, heroes still die permanently if they lose in auto-resolve, but only get wounded or reset to 1 hp in manual battles. The hell is up with that.
>>153264927
You should keep the single Khazrak portrait with two rolls instead of the one with a separate portrait for Mini-campaign for when you do a serious version.
It looks better.

KILL URKS
Any one here playing tomb Kings in the Beginning of the Endtimes mod?
Currently playing through a Dwarf Campaign on VH. What can I expect from the chaos invasion? The first wave has come but they're never a problem, will I struggle when Archaon comes?
hi anon, how are you today?
>>153272215
Build slayer shrines or moving through your mountains in any stance other than underway is going to be a pain in the arse from all the corruption. You will need it since archeon will likely do the norscan goose-chase through your hills too.
Played as dwarf on very hard because I am a noob.
Killed greenskin by turn 80 and all orcs by turn 100.
Done my first quest on turn 104 because I am lazy, and want to prepare myself for chaos now.
Turn 108 empire is dead, mostly because of estalia and tilea.
So I just Confederated the last three dwarfen places in 20 turns.
When I saw Sigvald at Grenzstadt only me, Border Princes, Vamps and Estalia lived (+Chaos, Varg and Skaeling) but within 10 turn Estalia and Vamps died.
So screw the manlings the OG must save the world like Grimir once did.
Honestly though I am strength 1, chaos 2 and border prices with their 4 settlements are at 4.
Beastman who were eredicated and came back are strength 6
>>153272215
As long as you've already taken out the orcs the chaos stacks shouldn't be too much of problem for dwarf armies, since they have plenty of AP. Also watch out for the norscans spawning in the south badlands.
>>153272215
organ guns and cannons will make most of archaons army useless
the only time I ever had trouble was when Kholek came and he had the shield of ptolos giving him an extra 30% resistance to missiles which made him fucking immune to all of my artillery.

>>153272573
>>153272987
thanks friends
is there a mod that removes agents that corrupt land? the ai cant handle it and its annoying when half of the world is razed
Guys please help a scrub out. I played dorfs and got used to the near solid steel line and their turtle tactics. I've been trying empire out on custom battles to get a feel for them before the dlc and it seem that their units melt away way too easily, even the Demigryph knights and greatswords. Is there a staple for their late game unit recruitment or is archy going to kick my shit in?
>>153273532
The Empire is much more reliant on characters. Wizzy in the back lines buffing and debuffing, warrior priests smashing the shit out of things whilst propping up your army with the leadership aura, and a lord with heavy investment in army skills.
Are dwarfs the most boring faction to play? I mean it is fun for a little while when you have a line of ironbreakers, a couple irondrakes, maybe a cannon, 2 organ guns, 2 grudge throwers, a couple quarellers or thunderers, and helicopters and it looks like its fucking ww1 with all the explosions and bodies flying everywhere. But the whole game is just sitting on your ass while everything gets obliterated before even touching your troops.
so how are they gonna explain vladdy not dumpstering manny?
Posting Vlad and Arkan discussing Mannfred and Nagash for those interested.
>The hooded figure gave a bark of laughter. ‘You forget– I have played dice with you, Arkhan. I know exactly what sort of man you were– and still are.’
>‘And what sort of man are you?’
>‘One who honours his debts.’
>Arkhan turned away. ‘It is a shame that you could not reach Averheim in time. You might have turned the tide.’
>The hooded figure looked at him. ‘It is a shame that our lord and master failed to heed me when I suggested that we muster in defence of the Empire. And now look where we are. The last place any of us, especially him, wanted to be.’
>‘Which him are you referring to? Nagash… or your hapless progeny?’
>‘Both, I think,’ Vlad von Carstein said. ‘But Nagash especially. Mannfred knows that failure breeds opportunity as well as, or better than, success in the right circumstances. Nagash, I think, does not.’ The vampire looked towards the towering shape of Nagash, his expression speculative.
>‘Nagash cannot conceive of failure. To fail would imply that he made a mistake. To admit that would unravel all that he is, was and will be,’ Arkhan said.
>‘And would that be so bad?’
>Arkhan leaned against his staff, skull pressed to its length. ‘For better or worse, Nagash is as close to a god as remains to this dying world. To remove his certainty would be to cripple him, and by extension, condemn us all.’
>‘Arrogance set him on his path, and arrogance will see him through,’ Vlad said. He shook his head and sighed. ‘More and more, I wonder if Mannfred is not his truest servant after all, given the similarities between them.’
>‘Mannfred is a fool. Nagash is not.’ Arkhan looked at Vlad. ‘Why have you not informed him of your survival? He believes that you met your end in Sylvania, at your paramour’s hands.’
>>153273870
Vlad loves Mannfred as his son. He IS his son.
>>153273902
>‘To be honest, I’m a bit surprised that he still thinks I’m dead,’ Vlad murmured. He frowned, and for a moment Arkhan considered asking him about Isabella. That the Chaos Gods had brought her back was of little surprise to him. Nothing was beyond them, and such a resurrection was merely a parlour trick for such powers. But he decided against it. What Vlad thought of it was unimportant. All that mattered was that he served.
>‘He has never been very observant, where his desires are concerned. He wishes for you to be dead, and so you are,’ Arkhan said. ‘That is his greatest weakness, and greatest strength. His lies propel him on, fuelling the arrogance that lends him strength.’
>‘Like Nagash,’ Vlad said, with the smile of one who believes he’s scored a point.
>Arkhan shifted uncomfortably. He did not reply. Let the vampire think what he liked. In all the years he’d spent duelling with Mannfred, he’d forgotten how much more deadly the first von Carstein was. Mannfred, for all his faults, was not a philosopher. He was pragmatic, and focused on the material world. A craftsman of death, rather than an artist. For all his pretensions of nobility and all of his insistence that the world’s throne was his by right of blood, Mannfred was still a callow, petty creature.
>Vlad, on the other hand, was anything but. He had wrung knowledge from the writings of Nagash without the benefit of a tutor, learning through trial and error. He had fought for everything he claimed, and claimed nothing he had not shed blood in pursuit of. Mannfred schemed towards a single, final goal, like an arrow travelling towards its target. Vlad, however, was more like a sword, capable of more than simply carving out an enemy’s heart.
>‘Was I ever as arrogant as Nagash?’ Vlad asked. ‘Was I ever as blind as Mannfred?’
>Arkhan looked at the vampire. ‘You tell me,’ he said, after a time.
>>153274120
>‘Neferata certainly thought so,’ Vlad said, and chuckled. He rubbed the heavy ring that decorated his finger. ‘Never could abide arrogance, that one.’
>‘No… she cannot.’ Arkhan turned away from him. Vlad smiled.
>‘She and Isabella have– had– much in common. I thought, once upon a time, that I could mould her into the image of the queen. When she resisted, when she turned my arrogance back on me, hissing and spitting, I knew that there was no need. The first time she raised her voice to me in anger, I felt my heart ignite.’ Vlad cocked his head. ‘Was it that way with you, gambler? Prisoner, slave, lover… so many masks between you two. And now, shorn of all pretence…’
>>153273532
for killing off the AI I tend to use heavier artillery like cannons. But your main line is gonna consist of greatswords and some steam tanks.
but yeah it seems the empire is far more reliant on Artillery and Heroes doing the work than their infantry.

>>153273742
>>153274281
I never tried warrior priests tbqh, and I still gant quite get the hang of wizards. But if it stops chosen hacking my greatswords into mincemeat. Also I guess it takes more than one tank to be effective against late game chaos armies right?

But yeah, End Times generally sucked. Especially since it gave birth to Age of Shitmar.

To be fair there fucking Manny gets vampire elf waifu.
>Eldyra of Tiranoc was an elf, or had been. She was the only survivor of Eltharion the Grim’s doomed rescue attempt on behalf of the Everchild, she whose life essence had been used to quicken Nagash’s spirit from its dark bower in those final moments at the Nine Daemons. She had fallen in that last, fateful battle, but Mannfred had been seized by one of his distressing whims, and had shown her mercy. Of sorts, at any rate.Now, she sat astride her horse, as undead as the rest of the Drakenhof Templars, and as bloodthirsty as any of Mannfred’s get. The elf noticed his attentions, and met his gaze. Her eyes held no hint as to her thoughts. As he watched, Elize von Carstein leaned over and murmured something to Eldyra, and the elf looked away.‘Not the first mistake Mannfred has ever made, but it might be his last,’ Vlad said. Arkhan looked at him. Vlad gestured to Eldyra. ‘Still, I am impressed that it was done at all. A rare thing, to see one of our sort crafted from alien flesh.’
>>153275940
I don't really have a character preference, I'm just looking for books to read and given I want to get into Warhammer TW, the books seems like a good way to pass the time.
Other than the army books are there any other reads? I've downloaded the Gotrek and Felix series but that's all.
Chameleon skinks, Lord Kroak, Ark of Sotek's Bastiladon, razorgon hunting packs and dread Saurian will probably be added with a Lord pack

How the fuck do you kill Kholek?
Played as dwarfs and had a smiliar battle 4 vs 4.
Archeon, Bird and Sigvald all went down easily, but that fucker Kholek killed of:
2 stacks of warriors
1 stack of Hammerers
1 lord
then charged right thrugh a unit of Quarrelers to kill of a hero (that sniper one) and my 5 stacks of artillery. During all of this he had 4units of Quarellers and two cannons attacking him from the start.
I lost goddammit, although I won the next turn.
>>153281465

Alright memes aside, are any of those "start collectig" packs worth it at all? They cost 65 euros where I live, there arent really many places to play here but i kinda like the models and since I used to make scale models a while a go that itch comes up once in a while.
>>153283224

>>153283559
They're a nice discount on models so they're worth it if you think the models are.
>there are people defending slavic poison arrows
Is it so hard for people to understand that something being balanced isn't just about a faction being good or bad, it's about how the game actually plays.
Attila's 'thing' as a central gameplay mechanic in battles is exhaustion, that's a core concept as gameplay design. Then you introduce a unit that can easily change a unit to be exhausted and pretty fucking useless for the rest of the entire battle, it doesn't just result in a minor gameplay issue, it throws the entire gameplay design out of the window.
It's not even that big of a deal, they aren't going to wipe out a properly micromanaged army or something retarded like that, but what logical leaps do you have to go through to say 'well slavic bows might be ridiculous, but it makes up for them being broken and shit in other areas', instead of just saying 'CA pls make slavics not broken in those other areas'.
>>153283559
They are the only thing in GW's stock that comes close to a fair price
Go for it if you got that itch, painting is comfy as fuck
>>153283808
So what you're saying is, it changes up gameplay?
Why not just adapt andget gud?

>We’re a little short on time before launch, so it won't initially be as full-featured as previous titles, but will at least include the Database Editor and BOB for modifying and exporting database tables and campaign start positions, and packing them all into mod packs. We hope to add further functionality, such as battle map editing, later on in the year.
>by a free tool made by some dude in his free time
You talking about PFM? Yeah you're right that's a pretty good tool, although I've found that the official db editor is much better for multi-table stuff.
>>153283028
As far as lore is concerned, if Vlad is alive in the 2500s then he was raised by Nagash. Vlad's #1 priority is Isabella, and Nagash promised him Isabella if he falls in line. Assume that Nagash told Vlad to work with Mannfred and leave it at that.
I didn't read the End Times: Nagash book so I can't really come up with a better headcanon explanation.
>>153283103
That's not DeI, that's the achilles hero mod. You were just memed.

FUCKING WHEN
>>153284062
Total War don't follows End Times, there is no Nagash and Vlad was resurrected by ring.

It's pretty clear that the guy tanking the javelins is wearing the same armour as Brad Pitt from the movie. You deserved your meming.
>>153284062
Pretty close though Nagash doesn't have Isabella, Nurgle does. Nagash brings back Vlad by tearing a chunk out of mannfred and using the blood to resurrect him and Mannfred goes batshit and attacks Vlad since he knows he has lost his power over Sylvania. Mannfred only calms down once he realises how complete Nagash's control is after he wipes out Nehekhara and eats the underworld.

In a nutshell, it might be because of the anti-feminism thing in warhammer, anti-dawn of war 3 talks (some drama happened with him and and Luetin09 who interviewed the devs), he's a Norwegian from norway thus the way he speaks may feel condescending/aggressive, his let's plays for tww has radious in it despite being a lore buff, he's also slightly /pol/ (he'll say things like "#notall, bad things about angela merkel, diversity, etc. rarely from time to time.)
In /tg/, I haven't identified any dislike against him in terms of lore and the like. He is a relatively new as his channel started since a year ago, but his popularity is recent for 2016.
Overall, I think the major dislike against him is essentially his use of radious in his let's plays.

Nigga half of any thread on 4chan would either agree with the cussing of left wing politics or not care about it. Arch is just condescending with his fake accent and the fact that he gets all pissy about lore stuff and even then is a hypocrite for using mods like Radious.

to make people think it's obscuring their heads when infact it is hollow
chaos dwarfs are very self conscious about their height
What's the best way to deal with Chaos doomstacks past turn 100? As in generaly. Armor Piercing armies?
On my Dwarf Campaign on VH i had to completly disregard quarrelers at some point becouse they would become literaly useless against Chaos Warriors and Chosens, not to mention those freaking Hell cannons would kill 1/3 of a unit with a single well placed shot.
Had a fun time experimenting when a single dwarf army managed to kill the stupid bird while my line was being overrun and only 2 organ guns were left.
5 x Cannons and lvl 10 Dwarven engineer, best dawi of my life.
>>153280331
The day is lost, but before the men of the Empire routed, Karl Franz personally put to death Kholek Suneater and Sarthorael the Everwatcher
Archaon the Everchosen, emboldened by the Empire's rout, was lured into a desperate rear-guard assault and met the end of his campaign between the hulls of two gleaming steam tanks, which perished in the bloody aftermath. Only Prince Sigvald, cowering in his crowds of chosen, survived.
Vadim Dazhev, the allied general of Kislev, died valiantly alongside his retinue of greatswords, with the Kislevite army taking the heaviest casualties overall in an opening charge that enabled the scattered reinforcements to form a cohesive unit. His was the only unit that perished in its entirety during the battle.I've been fighting the battle since I posted the first time, wish my better units came in as reinforcements first

Quarrelers are good for the 4 giants that they tend to bring in their doomstacks. In the early game, they tend to level which is always a plus.
>>153288282
>not to mention those freaking Hell cannons would kill 1/3 of a unit with a single well placed shot
For me they're always too busy trying to snipe the gyrocopters raping their asses.
Organ guns, cannons and thunderers take care of the ranged combat.
>>153288282
>a faction with no cav
>dealing with Chaos
Try more explosives I guess.
>>153288282
There is nothing, nothing that chaos can throw your way that a well placed army of Ironbreakers cannot deal with, especially with runesmiths. Then, an army or two of regular Quarrelers and Longbeards with cannons or organ guns and you're golden.
>>153288783
ChessBoard formation and thunderer help alot, with dwarfs you play defensivly in melee so it's just a matter of stopping your enemy long enought for all your ranged weapons to make a blody mess out of them
I still wish Iron Drakes were a bit better, they're not bad but i wouldnt field more than 1 or 2, they also need bigger mass imo
>>153286972
Welcome to the Fourth Century, plebis
>>153269469
Just wait for Ancient Empires, unless you need to start in the 270's B.C. that badly.
>>153283028
why was Vlad in 8th addition? Just use whatever logic put him in there.
>>153289116
Iron drakes and flame cannons are super disappointing... I love flame weaponry but they are so useless. They are useful against goblins and swordsmen, units you won't even be fighting by the time you unlock either. Such a shame.
Are there flamethrower gyros in TT? Cause those would be fun.
>>153289789
GW never explained why they were available to play despite being dead in the fluff. If you wanted to RP a battle then you could decide it was in the past or that they'd been resurrected. Mannfred was dead in 8th too you realise.
>>153288294
Okay now let's try this again with the picture actually attached
>>153289116
Yeah drakes should be better and in larger groups, but I still pop a 100-200 kills per unit for them. Though you have to be very active with them.
>>153289915
My thoughts exactly. I still tried an army composition with fire drakes and fire cannons couse MUST PURGE but was mostly useless if not against low armor targets
Torpedo drakes on the other hand are slow as fuck at firing but rip to shreds armored targets, still not worth it i guess unless you have lvl 10+ Dwarven Engineer in your army
>>153289915
Sadly you speak the truth. You may as well get quarrellers or thunderers. They're cheaper and more useful than Irondrakes.

I kill the hellcannon spam by making them siege a city and then I tell the towers to kill the hellcannons. Even if I lose I take out all the cannons, and they almost never build more.
>>153291989
>>153292359
Gyrocopters seem to be the only viable solution at this point, most times chaos armies won't even have any other ranged unit apart from cannons
>>153291792
Yang pls no semi circles.
>>153289070
Pretty much this, I find 4 ironbreakers, 8-10quarrellers, 4 grudgethrowers and gyros and heros for whats left deals with everything they can throw at ya. Just make the grudge throwers have enough room to back away from your battle line to still hit the units attacking your iron breakers after you use them to take out the hell cannons. Quarrellers are great for the constant morale lose and dealing with trolls/giants.
>>153292190
There's nothing to gain from the victory screen. Just quit when you're satisfied.
>>153292897

It's just
>gg asshole, you won
>now fuck off
>>153292884
I usually get more Ironbreakers, two brimstone gyros and two bombers, 2 grudge throwers and 8 quarrs max, usualy 6 at that point in the game.
Quarrs focus any marauder or troll or giant, gyros brimstone on large as well, bombers on his cannons and i spread ironbreakers in two think lines so they can swap out when needed and just set everything ablaze.
>>153293987
Which LL I go for Thorgrim focus on red for better quarrellers/gyro/ironbreakers and use him as a morale and armor booster via items. Yeah six ironbreakers, rune priest and thane specc'd for combat as a reinforcer. I try more for morale breaks mainly.
>>153293439
In older titles you actually get a victory cutscene.

Easier to just to trade units and have them just be converted to the closest racial equivalent. But I like the general idea, it would make AI alliances a little more worthwhile. They couldn't be allowed to trade high tier or special units like Ironbreakers or Steamtanks. Just tier 1 shit.

Been watching Heir of Carthage's online TWW battles, bais. From what I gather, the key to winning every battle according to him is to always a) use magic, b) use archers, c) don't favour elite units over core ones and d) never spend too many points on heroes outside of giving them healing potions.
Is this the universal recipe for success?

based
>>153310120
Higher upkeep.
Also swordsmen have shields which gives them a 1/2 chance to block small arms that would other wise ignore Armour like gun-fire.

>>153134642
it doesn't make much sense that most all Beastmen ambush battles take place on the Beast Path battle maps. I have made a somewhat hacky modification to the battle_locations_map.bin file, changing the beast path redirect to affect a non-existent faction (replacing wh_dlc03_bst_beastmen with VAMPIRE_CHANS_BREASTS in the land_ambush section)
I _think_ you'll still get the Beast Path battle maps when an intercept happens, but I don't know, haven't tested enough yet.

How many factions does TWWH have now?
>>153309783
I would have loved this honestly. like the point of these games I always felt was the size of battles not the graphical fidelity.
That said normies would look at this and go "EW"
>153310771
>guaranteed replies
so is anyone here playing as the tomb kings in Beginning of the End Times mod?
>>153310771
History is much more interesting than fiction in many instance. One because it's real and two because it's almost unbelievable
>>153310940
Normies love indie garbage so this will be a step up.
Franz, 10 amber wizards on Jade griffins, and 9 steam tanks or Franz and 19 steam tanks?
>>153310918
I think six
>>153311220
19 steam tanks
>>153310940
Just think, we could have had a game with medieval 2 graphic quality, maybe a few improvements but with battles where you command 20,000-30,000 units

Something totally possible on the warscape engine dumb nostalgiafag. It's only impossible in old shit 3d engine games.
there is literally no difference between TWWH fan base and the tabletop fan base, both are willing to shell out ridiculous amounts of money
>>153311440

Shit is too whack.
>>153311480
Except it runs like shit on the new engine. If they just built a game that looked like Medieval 2 with the capabilities of an engine like warscape we'd finally be able to simulate the real battles rome fought

TWW runs and looks better than your old piece of shit anyway. It also doesn't crash every 5 minutes.
>>153311557
I still bet this game will be cheaper with all the DLC than collecting a single moderately large tabletop army
I imagine most people are going to pick and choose DLC anyway since it looks as though you'll be able to play against the factions regardless of whether you buy it or not

I still find it funny that they're just disguised artillery, but it's a good attempt nonetheless.
Magic in total warhammer is pretty wonky at the moment (certain spells being worthless and others being OP because lord and hero embedding doesn't exist for some reason, higher level spellcasters are not actually better at casting spells for the most part for some reason), but at least there's time for it to be fixed.

Monstrous infantry are the best and most fun new unit type introduced in TWW
The only ones that don't do anything are trolls, and that's only because they run away too much
>>153311303
Warhammer units range from 20 - 40. I bet you're also against DLC in a game based on buying model armies piecemeal. Warhammer is all about small engagement with big, impressive looking units.
I'm glad CA doesn't listen to people like many of you here who want to spoil the spirit of Warhammer Fantasy in its last and greatest incarnation.
>>153316050
Why did they even include feral ghouls when crypt horrors look almost exactly alike and fight twice as well?
>>153316323
Because ghouls and horrors fill different rolls on the battlefield.
>>153316050
I've read here that Trolls can be great if you have a strong leadership aura with them, so maybe they should be used as a sort of Bodyguard Retinue for a melee lord/hero?
>>153316439
please elaborate
>>153316482
They should be used as flanking troops to quickly end fights you're winning, that way your troops can move on.
just started playing m2 again, what are the must-have mods?
>>153316323
Technically, horrors should be more vulnerable to stuff like cannons and ranged units shooting them over the heads of other troops, but they're so cheap compared to what they do that crypt ghouls don't compare at all. Crypt ghouls are a bit too squishy, really.
>>153316482
Send them into things like archers or the rear of squishy units and trolls will tear them apart. They're good as long as they're not taking much damage, since they're not that much different from crypt horrors and minotaurs, it's just that minos and crypt horrors stay in a fight for much longer.

They stomped kislev but didn't come near the rest of my empire and just fucked off into the mountains
>>153316775
Crypt Horrors are big hammers you can use to smash enemy formations and beef up any engagement with other enemy elite units.
Crypt Ghouls are more numerous flanking infantry that use their speed and poison to rip up weaker infantry and collapse the enemy's flanks.
I know ghouls are in a bit of an awkward position right now stat-wise, but they are much different units than Horrors.

Do you want to see his big slann cannon?
>>153317805
are merc onager crews the richest people in Attila?
Also, the Terrorgheist and Vargulf seem less killy than they perhaps should be, since they only have a regular AoE attack rather than the big AoE stuff they would have in tabletop that would hit large amounts of units at a time.

How the fuck could mercs even be onagers. Like imagine 40 dudes wandering around with a big fucking catapult and getting paid thousands of dollars to do fuck all

Merca should fuck off after a couple of turns. Makes no sense that they stick with you till you disband them.
>>153317989
Over the course of this game I've probably spent 64500 fucking gold on mercenary onagers.
NOW, some of that will have been armies that i needed quick onagers for that I meant to discard later.fucking CUNTS

>>153318149
siege weapons in the past were often constructed on-site using local resources
what materials weren't readily avalible in the environment (certain treated fibres or animal products) were usually what was carried.
>>153318540
DA WAAGH
This is it lads
One last fight and I'll have purged Norsca of all life
>>153318589
Mercs sign a contract of which they're required to stick to the client for a certain period of time before they're allowed to fuck off. Remember that these are foreign soldiers who needs to go home and spend their money. It makes no sense that they will stick with you all the way even when your own troops disband for winter.
>>153317212
Chaos really only gets a foothold if they can rampage uncontested, I think this is part of what's led to the duality of perception of Chaos, where some people think they're game ruining bastards razing everything while others think they're barely a distraction.

I just read that the Norscan tribes have no economy system affecting them, so they can just spam hire whatever they want. Is that true? I guess that would answer why Skaeling and Varg are the source of so much pressure
>>153319070
>>153318753
We did it pham
>>153320325
I think it has more to do with all the damn ports they have. This is also why the villages are worth so much to pillage.
>>153320325
The AI doesn't really play by normal economy rules anyway, but norscan port and settlement buildings actually produce a fuckton of money. They also have a building that gives lots of experience for new recruits that appears to stack, which is where the instant 3 silver chevron armies come from.
>>153320325
I thought it was that they had boosted economy's which is why you need to attack them early to stop the spam?
If they have nothing though that's complete horse shit.

This whole experience bonus shit needs to end. It feels so unsatisfying recruiting silver chevrons or simply attaching an agent to get gold ones. Experience should only be earned through battle. It makes little sense otherwise.

Medieval 2 is probably the most important Total War game, and has a rich mod scene to this very day
Shogun 2 is the best overall Total War experience out of the box

Warhammer's a great game so far, but I still put Shogun 2 on the golden podium above it. Primarily because right now the Warhammer campaign is a bit of a hot mess
>>153321982
I wish I could find that screencap of someone telling gook to stop spamming osprey because he's posting his campaign and he called him a racist hater or something and continued anyway
>>153322549
Shogun 2 has a better campaign, but All Rook Arike 2 isn't just a meme it's a fact.
It's really personal preference.I agree with you.
>>153321874
Attila is mechanically the best.
Warhammer is best setting-wise
Warhammer and Shogun 2 FOTS tie for best weapons/ units
Medieval 2 is probably still my favourite though.

but yeah, in my Attila games i fight hard to become the number 1 power, but then you realise being top dog is kind of fucking boring
>>153322549
Shogun 2 is probably the best overall complete experience.
That said I personally can't stand the setting and those siege battles are the worst out of all the games in my opinion.
>>153323754
You make a good, if retarded, point.
>>153324184
It's fucking boring because there's no body to fight besides the horsefuckers.
It's the same problem with Warhammer.
In any other Total War game until you conquer 3/4 of the map you're always in danger of being completely gangbanged from all sides by stacks.
>>153324184
That's why I handicap myself. I set historical borders, I conquer entire regions first before I leave them, I restrict myself to just family members leading armies, shit like that.

Attila is designed in such a way to make rebellions a constant threat, thematically it takes place in a time of migrations, unrest, fragmenting empires, clinate change and famine.
Mechanically it makes early-mid game very fluid and interesting, it's mostly annoying for empire building and how the north becomes a frozen shithole and the continent devoid of life
so did CA mention how regiments of renown would work in game?
basically a mercenary system? but how do we unlock all these specially named unique units?

im about to go turbo autist on you so please ignore if you have allergies. Kislev at one point DID have a roster
http://whfb.lexicanum.com/wiki/Warhammer_Armies:_Kislev_(6th_Edition)
http://whfb.lexicanum.com/wiki/Kislev_Military
but in all official GW books they never had bear cavalry and when they were turned into "imperial allies" or something along those lines they had a small limited roster that did NOT have the bear cavalry they only "got" them via fan works, fan conversions, and fan rosters. Kislev never officially fielded bear cavalry and the reason why that tsar gets to ride that bear is because that bear was an avatar of ursan so its special if CA wants to put in Kislev and they give them bear cavalry for "rule of cool" ill be fine with it but until that day comes stop with the bear cav meme
>>153330553
Fair enough I was just pointing out it was mentioned in the fluff if not the crunch but I'ma drop it
>>153330553
Warmaster kislev armies had several heroes mounted on bears.
How long until Radious TableTop?
So I decided to try out radious for warhammer and see how bad it was. Jesus fucking christ, you have to play it to see what an abomination it is. Fucking goblins will win against orc boys because there are more of them. You've got fucking savage orc pike formations using empire spearmen weapons, black orc archers, black orcs on boars, savage orcs using high quality great axes, and that's just the fucking orcs. They've turned meat shield units into god damn tanks and it has stupid shit like wolf riders with 130 movement speed and hammers with shields. And units don't route until they have maybe 200 health and 3 models left making battles an infuriating game of whack-a-mole and he's made everything on the campaign map take even longer.
I've only looked at the orcs and dwarfs so far and I'm scared to even touch the other factions but I'm going to see whatever dumb ass ideas he's thrown into the other factions. Oh yeah, and wights now use bows apparently.
>>153274754
No he just actually loved her, like in a completely romantic but asexual way.

how can anybody even tell what the fuck is going on in battles? you can zoom in an immerse yourself because all the differently sized beings are just phasing through shit farting out thousands of particle effects and the ugliest armor reflection of any total war game. they honestly made it too fast and made the polycount so high that nothing in the melee is describable
>use radious mod
>all the units added can 1 v 10 of vanilla units
why do people use his mods again?

The official models look a thousand times cooler then Radious's hack models. Just looking at the Radious models compared to the Kislvev mod, and Southern realm models makes me want to throw up.
Post webms, pls. Specifcally charges

Fots is still great
Also just wait for ancient empires to experience a better rome 2

I've been using the southern realm one and their models are much better than radious as well as another hammer of sigmar that was much less powerful despite looking even better
what's the kislev mod you're talking about?
>>153333634
Historical TW games are fun, friend. Dont let the trivial filler like pre-scripted quests and family trees put you down. It all comes down to their unique factions, recreating history, and learning about our dead gay ancestors who fought bravely for their people

lmao is that bear cavalry
thanks senpai looks like I'm playing kislev tomorrow before dlc comes out

Yeah...that's the only bad part of he mod. The rest of the models are top tier, especially Katrina. You also get a unique tech tree, building tree, lore (lore of ice) and more cool shit.
This, and the Southern realms are probaly the best bet for making the other human factions way more unique.
so where did I go wrong installing SS?
everything works fine until it tries to load into a battle, then it either freezed or CtD
