It is now October. The sallow season deepens its hold on Athel Loren. It is a dark time, a time of mourning. As the spites and spirits of the forest grow slothful and recalcitrant, the enemies of the Asrai seek to defile the sacred glades. Ratposting is rampant. The Deep Thinking Goblin looms, esoteric and obscene. Athel Loren is a realm under siege. The King of the Woods cannot be found; the kinbands are scattered and given over to dissolute indulgence, pursuing until the last comfort over exertion.

Yet it is comfort itself that is imperiled; Should the Asrai fade from the Old World the beauty of their existence, a recordless history of leisure and frivolity without equal, will disappear, leaving the clamoring, scrabbling bustle of the outside world without counterpoint or enlightening example. It is a dark time. But even in the deep gloom of autumn, a hope flickers. A whisper on the winds, melodious like the clinking of tea cups on saucers.

Wood Ayyelves soon.

Why do I love Skarsnik so much?
It's pretty simple when I iz finkin' 'bout it.
Skarsnik izn't just da best character in da War'ammer world, 'ee might just be da greenest character of all time.
Just imaging 'im riding fru da halls of Karak Eight-Peaks, da wind in 'is 'at, 'is mighty Gobbla below 'im.
As 'ee rides fru da World's Edge Mountains, da Stunties soil demselves at 'is very scent.
Dey knows 'ow 'ee smells, da essence of 'is smell iz in da Stunties Book of Grudges unda da name of "Skarsnik Fungusm"
Da very nature of Skarsnik iz mystery.
Could 'ee be playin' a deepa game den even Gork and Mork realizes?
Da answer iz yes, 'ee 'as transcended such boundaries as da written world, and 'as free will to do woteva 'ee seez fit.
'owever, Skarsnik iz filled wiff such cunnin', such morky craft dat 'ee does not even use deese powers.
Why, you might ask? You will neva know, for da mind of Skarsnik iz not one dat iz easily penetrated.
Skarsnik iz such a force of Mork in 'is realm dat nofink can truly touch 'im, da only fink keeping 'im bound to da page at all iz 'is will to exist wiffin da preordained boundaries of 'is world.
Skarsnik iz not only beyond da compre'enssiun of us, 'ee exists wiffin a plane of true gorkiness and morkiness.
Observe 'is playful smile, 'is gorgious and rippling Gobbla, 'is gallant nose, and most importantly, 'is eyes.
'is eyes, like pools of shinies, provide da only glimpse into da true maschinassiuns of Skarsnik. Do not stare into dem. Many good boyz 'ave gone dead in da attempt.
Skarsnik iz not just a character, a formless collectiun of words and images, 'ee 'imself iz da binding dat 'olds da Warhammer world togeva.
Wiffout Skarsnik, da entire War'ammer world, da entire Games Workshop as we knows it crumbles.
No Stunties or Ratboys would be stomped wiffout Skarsnik and Karak Eight-Peaks would become a desolate crater wiffout 'is iron fist.
Deese are just of a few of da reasons why I like Skarsnik so much.

The Wood Elves rely, among other things, on a post-scarcity magical economy providing endless access to sustenance, slavery and forest spirits for labor, and the providence of an eternal monarchy that has practiced a benevolent and decentralized rule for millenia. They spend their time on more ennobling pursuits like great theatrical performances in celebration of things that never happened, /ss/, and tea.

Wood Elves are barely even tolerated by the forest.

The central kingdom of Athel Loren is notable by the fact that relations between the Elves and the forest spirits are really good. Why is the relationship better than everywhere else? Because the forest spirits don't regularly steal wood elf children to rape and eat.

The wood elves actually had to wall off an entire forest kingdom to contain all the forest spirits that raped them more frequently than the accepted amount.

There's also another kingdom which is a giant warzone between beastmen and wood elves, and yet another kingdom which has been converted into a fortress because it keeps getting invaded by greenskins and dwarfs.

So yeah, "muh comfy NEET life" not so much.

You could read the 8th edition rulebook where they took away the mysterious realm of mutable borders and replaced it with twelve meme kingdoms so it could be more like the High Elves or Dark Elves, I guess, but that'd be missing the point. The 6th edition book really conveys the Wood Elves the best.

Either book is damningly silent on the subject of how the forest's irregularities in space and time make it a land of 2D waifus, but it is implied in the subtext.

Beastmen are co-belligerents in the NEET war against wageslavery, but they lack the ideological self-awareness to achieve any meaningful success. They rage against the existence of the depraved labor-based society of man, but prepare no meaningful alternative themselves. They are only capable of destruction and are forever unable to attain the comfiness that is a matter of course for inhabitants of Athel Loren.

Is it just me, or is it kinda hard to fight Chaos as the dorfs in the campaign? Longbeards kinda fall apart to Chosen, so maintaining the gunline with Thunderers ends up with me taking huge losses. And cannons are pretty fucking mediocre against monsters, except I guess giants for the animation interruptions.

On Legendary, by the way.
>>
>>158464982
Organs and cannons for infantry, trollhammer drakes for monsters.
>>
>>158464982

By the time chaos rolls in with chosen you should have at least one army dedicated to killing them. Chosen are slow fucks that are in quite dense formations, so arty really fucks them up. The RoR Skyhammer is stupendously good for dealing with them as well.

And as for monsters a mix of missle infantry + Trollhamer torpedoes. Or the skalding guard or w/e they're called RoR.

I was actually immensely unprepared for Chaos invasions, and I've beaten them back easily with Greenskins, Empire and Vamps. I ended up confederating way too much, and ended up with rebellions, no money and way too much territory to defend as Archaeon rolled around at turn fucking 58. Like, I just got my first full army with Longbeards, Hammerers and Cannons, and Sarthorael tore them a new asshole as I didn't have the tech to buff them nor a very experienced general.

So I'm literally playing the attrition game as most of the human world has been burned, trying to find a good composition that can beat them relatively cost-efficiently.

It's actually a huge challenge, and a lot of fun fighting on the backfoot.

Imagine how shit it would be if mercenary troops realistically refused orders / did their own shit

>quoth the wiki
During the Battle of Crécy, in August 1346, upwards of 5,000 Genoese crossbowmen were employed by the French in the first line against the English. At around 4 PM, a sudden rainstorm arose. The English longbowmen simply removed their bowstrings, and stored them under their water-resistant leather caps to keep them dry. Crossbows, on the other hand, cannot be unstrung and restrung without tools. The strings of the crossbows thus became stretched upon being drenched by rain. When the rain-soaked and now-stretched crossbow strings were used roughly an hour later during the initial attack against the emplaced and defending English, the crossbows were largely rendered useless, with their maximum ranges and bolt speeds greatly reduced from their normal performance. When the Genoese crossbowmen came under heavy long distance clouds of clothyard shafts from the English longbowmen, the Genoese commander, Ottone Doria, ordered his troops to retreat. The French knights behind the Genoese crossbowmen saw this as cowardice and cut them down as they retreated. Most of the crossbowmen were killed, their commander included. Losing only a very small number of soldiers, the English won the battle handily through directed long distance shooting with longbows against the French men-at-arms and the Genoese crossbowmen.

I don't know how mercenaries even survive in the TW-world, because that shit is standard procedure. Only mercenary siege-crews realistically survive long, and yet they get paid a fuckton more that most other mercs.

Focus down the skirmishers first with your crossbowmen, then start shooting into the melee. Then start morphing into actual armies once you get Reiksguard and artillery.

Even if that were the case that doesn't make it fun or a good idea and there are plenty of other ways they could have portrayed the corrupting nature of Chaos that doesn't involve a billion assassinations and block army actions per turn.

Not to mention that your argument doesn't work anyway because EVERY ai faction spams agents as soon as they get the ability to.

>>158481304
Literally all you have to do is train two assassin agents and have them go around killing any annoying agent. It's super easy to keep your lands and armies clear. When the first chaos agents spawn I usually kill them all 4-5 turns later.

Just to elaborate, I've not had a chance to play on legendary with skarsnik yet (fucking work), but on my VH/VH game I've found building a boss tent in every settlement solves 3 problems. Obedience, Chaos corruption, and strong early units.

I've got 10 goblin big bosses right now, 2 embedded in armies cause they are level 30, and 8 working their way up. Sieges are a joke cause i can bust walls, flankers in combat have no chance against full red BB supported by anything really. In the few battles I've had to fight against a rough hero like belegar, i bring one or two extra BB into the army, and just gang gobbo him.

I'll be starting a legendary campaign this weekend hopefully.

Under powered for sure. But comparable. Their low HP is their biggest drawback. However, they have poison attacks with spider mount, super high speed with wolf, and a super low upkeep cost. Fully upgraded they have ~62 melee defense and ~60 melee attack as well, so they can stand up in a fight pretty well. Also they get pretty high weapon strength by having an additional 10% perk.

in normal greenskin campaigns they are just an ok hero. But with skarsnik where you can replace ones that die super easily (leveling up a new one is painless) they are excellent.

Warhammer is very good. Despite people saying there's a lack of content i've somehow gotten 150+ hours from it so far and each faction will probably add another 10-20 hours each so there's that.

The DLC is pretty worth it, the only arguable one is beastmen and that's because half the price is a fucking garbage memecampaign that feels lackluster in every sense of the word.

Base gameplay is pretty similar. The map is a little 'simplified' since it lacks some stuff the other TW's have but even then, fights are where it's at. Flying, monsters, etc, have added some pretty fun and different shit to the gameplay.
>>
>>158493470

It's the most "arcade" of them all due to the setting, but the gameplay is really damn good. If you played MT2 and Shogun 2 you'll most likely enjoy it.

If you're a fan of the franchise then it's the best damn game ever made. Seriously, there is no better Fantasy game out there besides this, and the devs have so far been brotier with the content and keeping everything to the lore.

How much does the AI change when you make it a vassal? Does it get stupider? Or does it just seem that way? I'm not expecting world class leaders or anything, but how come they don't even rebuild their province? Are vassals just broken?
>>
>>158497470
They seem to take a few turns to get going, presumably while they're accumulation money because they're now giving some of it to you. Often when I make a vassal they do jack shit for 10 turns, and then they suddenly build two new stacks.

GENTLEMEN AND LADIES, LET US SETTLE THIS ONCE AND FOR ALL.

What did Carthiginians look like? And, knowing their ancestry can be traced back to Phoenician colonists, what did Phoenicians look like?

We know that the Phoenicians came from what we would nowadays call Syria/Levant area, so I propose that they looked similar to greek/syrian hybrids, considering greeks were so numerous and widespread back then, they were of bound to have mixed with another.

tldr Hannibal of Barca was not black.
>>
>>158499818
Gyros are actually very underrated. They pull their weight in kills in addition to providing utility like taking out enemy arty and skirmisher cav.
>>
>>158499928
With Warhammer they've somehow managed to make sieges even more boring and easy for the Warhammer shitlords. Now you just assault the first walls, you don't even need siege equipment. The ladders just spawn once you reach the walls. Sieges are so flavorless now.

ladders are awful.

half your unit dies just climbing up.

siege tower or bust.

or, better yet, just smash a whole in the wall and send cavalry in before you infantry.
>>
>>158500089
Phoencians came from the Levant so they probably looked like anybody else from the middle east.

The rest were Berbers, Numidians, and Libyans which also look like middle easterners.

Nobody seriously believes Hannibal was black

Maybe you're the bad one when you can't take settlements with just ladders. The game is easy as fuck. I play on Hard. Do you even know what sieges are like in pre-WH titles? Because WH sieges have maybe 5% the depth previous TW sieges had. WH sieges are basically pretend-sieges, like a minigame, with a pretty background.

Medieval 2 had one of the best sieges in the franchise. A medieval 2 siege consisted of at least 4 stages when attacking citadels.

Now in WH you basically charge the walls and you take them. That's literally fucking it.

How about you take off your nostalgia-glasses anon? M2 sieges were buggy messes more than half the time. S2 had the best sieges, and other than that there's no real difference between the others.
>>
>>158500698
it's not about how "hard" they are, they got all depth removed

in previous titles you had a fort, with access points, towers covering them (and in Attila, the whole burning shit, even if arguably bullshit, was fun and immersive)
Once the siege started, you may have to take it easy, reallocating troops and focusing artillery fire, pressuring certain points, or just rush the walls, break the gates and take it fast

in Warhammer, you get infinite-range towers removing all strategy besides "rush the walls", only one wall removing all meaning from deployment (all your troops could come from the back as reinforcements and it'd be the same) and even then, the AI can't even compete

Also, unlike Attila, Rome 2, Shogun 2... Warhammer (the setting) has incredibly interesting potential for siege layouts

I can't take them off because I'm not wearing them. I still play Medieval 2 on a regular basis and I find them 10x more interesting and indepth than WH sieges. Shogun 2 had nice sieges, I agree. Shogun 2 has been so far the best Warscape TW in my opinion, so many improvements were made but unfortunately nearly all of that was undone in Rome 2.

The game is merely trickling you into THINKING you are having fun. In reality you are not, you are sitting there playing an inferior TW game but CA had to cut costs so instead of programming fun they added filler-fun. The shit is the worst cop out for funness in a game and it is so apparent when you are playing TWWH how empty and holllow and cash grabbing the game really is.

Its not fun, not real fun like M2, but a fake flashy fun that is like some old hag getting a boob job. Great there are tits but the pussy is reminiscent of expired pastrami. And that is exactly what TWWH is like.

Not to mention the lack of campaign map diplomacy shit to do its just "eeuuuuh im a dorf nothing to do with rocs then just kill them har har harrrrrrrrrrrrr", disgraceful.

All looks no substance, no content no options just arcadey non-sense put out by some 2-bit hacks who somehow by the grace of god made M2

Old TW was better which is the same as /twg/

There's about 100 more things I can talk about but that's it for now.

For the record I've played all of these games within the last 6 months, and I started Medieval 2 back in 2008 so I'm not viewing things with rose tinted glasses.

Empire: 8 /10, they're good at everything, but you also get fucked by everything. It's fun.

Vampire cunts: 8 /10, by far the most fun roster, but the campaign is a bit too easy. Probably my favorite.

Dorfs: 9 /10 while trying to survive dying, 5 /10 and boring as shit after you retake the Badlands. You basically have nothing to do in the last third of the campaign.

Greenskins: 5 /10, you just kinda steamroll through everything.

You're not serious are you? In Warhammer as soon as the front of the formation makes contact, the entire unit stops and waits for the horses in front to get killed so that they can engage in combat themselves. In Med2, the charges had actual weight to them, so knights would destroy the enemy front line, but instead of just stopping like you do in every game post empire, they would continue onwards through the enemy formation until the charge didn't directly kill the enemy. Like a knife through butter.

And you had actual mechanics behind cavalry charges in Med 2. Your horses had to form up before a charge so they'd charge as a solid mass. And they'd also need some clear, open ground to pick up speed so when they hit they'd be charging at full speed. Not like the arcadey bullshit in Warhammer.

>>158507690

Yeah, a pretty big deal. That's why generals actually mattered in the game, and that's where a lot of people found a lot of enjoyment - there were faux storylines to be had, as you could have a dread, one eyed, secretly female general based on how you used him in war, he could go mad if you left him in a castle to garrison for too long. It was great.

gonna be honest I don't see how the family tree system factored into this. I thought the main reason generals mattered was because 1) they gave your army a major buff and 2) you didn't automatically spawn one if the general in the current army died.
most of what you mentioned sound like problems with other thing like generals not getting traits based off of the things they do. unless some how they needed the family tree was needed in order to do that?
sounds like the rest is "their isn't enough scaffolding there in order to support my cannon".
not disparaging your points. just really confused here.

Historical Team – Unannounced Total War Title
Game Director - Janos Gaspar
This team most recently released Total War: ATTILA in February 2015, which went on to become our best-selling ever follow-up title. Since that game was finalised for manufacture at the end of 2014, they’ve primarily been in the early pre-production stages of our next historically-based major release.

>""""""wich the wont""""""

>>158509181
Yeah sorry I didn't answer the question properly. So a good general faction leader would pass on traits to his children, so if you had a chivalrous, pious knight as your faction leader, your future lineage would start off with a great boost. As an example, my recent king was a 10* crusader, and his children started off as 6*, 5* and 4* generals at 16, all with great traits.

But I suppose the real value for family trees wasn't some gameplay advantage - it was that you could craft storylines, have a real narrative in the game that you can't if you don't give a shit about the faceless generals you're commanding in R2. Having an elite general die in the middle of a campaign, surrounded by enemies on all fronts, only to be saved by your "man of the hour" who takes command of your army under impossible odds isn't something really that has any tangible gameplay benefits, but.. it's really quite immersive and cool. Or a faction leader's son taking command when the times were dire and his father had just died, I mean the possibilities are endless. Being able to trace your family timeline to heroes in your past.

I'm not sure if this is the answer you're looking for, but it's certainly why I loved family trees.
>>
>>158507348
>40k
No, stop with this meme, 40K would work terribly with TW mechanics. It's the fantasy equivalent of wanting a WWI or WWII TW.
>>
>>158510113
Totally agree, family trees were absolutely critical for me to give a shit about generals and made personal connections to otherwise unrelated battles.

In Rome 1 I was playing Greek City states and had to evacuate Syracuse in the face of massive Scipii offence, about a lifetime later his son came back with a fully armored hoplite unit to take back his birthright.

That said, Warhammer doesn't span hundreds of years of history, it's in the lifetime of every faction leader. Look to other games or mods if you want a long ancestral game.

>>158508424
>In Warhammer as soon as the front of the formation makes contact, the entire unit stops and waits for the horses in front to get killed so that they can engage in combat themselves.

I've tried to get the cavalry to rely more on their momentum and just charge through units by selectively charging and moving repeatedly but it would be nice if that behaviour was default as charge for cavalry. However the cavalry charges we have aren't bad.

Daily reminder: ignore /his/fag shitposting, they are baiting out of bitterness.

If they want to talk about older TW titles, let them.
If you are interested in talking about older TW titles with them, do so.

If they are just shitting on TW:Warhammer because they don't like Warhammer or they want to bitch about how "great" /twg/ used to be (Hint: It wasn't), don't engage with them.

There are only 2-3 of them, when you ignore them they give up in frustration or just simmer quietly in their own anger. Never allow them to derail the thread by responding to their posts more than once.

Happy gaming, /twg/. Looking forward to picking up Grombrindal tomorrow. I'll try and get a few extra codes for you misfits.

I will say that I did this some what in med2 but not nearly as much as in Rome 2. Though I kinda stopped in Warhammer but thats mostly because of the RPG system.

I can see this. haven't had that exact thing happen but I have had it where I gotta take an army not led by a general to face hold off a force thats assaulting my home city. They barely clutch out a win and I get a man of the hour out of it. Or the best one where the enemy is sieging my capital with my main army and faction leader in it and has the whole castle surrounded with armies. so in order to get my faction leader and army out I sneak in a medium size stack to attack the seiging stack and with the help of the main force in the castle manage to drive them off and get my leader out of there. Ened up getting a man of the hour out of it. guy went on to kill the rest of the armies attacking the castle.This was in CoW

SteamSpy is considered by many to be very accurate, however there are certain things that confound the SteamSpy service - one of those is Free Weekends, which Rome 2 had.
Given it has not been in a Free Weekend yet, I believe the Total War: WARHAMMER number is approximately correct

I believe the SEGA Sammy IR material stated 2.4 million "Packaged Games", but not broken down on a per-game basis.

I can appreciate dedicated modders as much as the next guy, but Radious was seriously a fucking cunt and all his mods were basically the same shit.

>give every faction access to everything, making the game boring as fuck

He was Czech!? Damn... my opinion of Czechia just dropped a few rungs.

>>158514543
That would work too, but the downside would be if you lost Krell you'd never be able to get him back then.

Kemmler being the Lichemaster should be able to keep Krell around and alive for as long as he sees fit.

His shitty mods themselves didn't bother me so much as the plebs who held him up as an example of 'unit variety done right' or even good modding in general.
>>
>>158513989
>>158514912
Krell being the bodyguard like Skarsnik and Gobbla would give you a reason to EVER melee with Kemmler because the Chaos Tomb Blade encourages melee combat... but he doesn't have the stats to do that without dying.

If he actually had Krell you'd have the effect from the Tomb Blade active a lot more often because it wouldn't be a suicide mission to let Kemmler hit anything.

It would be a really nice buff because he'd be more survivable and he would actually be able to have his item effects active. Then you might actually pick him over week old dog shit.

CA pls.

Once Warhammer rolled around that same group still ripped into him but they were joined by all the WH Lore fanatics because on top of the above he started to just make random shit that didn't make any sense in the game for the "rule of cool" factor.

I think he also got tired of having to update his mod every time a new patch came out.

He still has a dedicated band of sycophants who bitch and moan about how "unfairly" he is treated and how grateful we should all be for his presence but no one gives a fuck anymore.

All human and dwarf factions have basically co-operated from turn one, with some sneaky Dawi influence from me.

It was actually ridiculous how well they co-operated, to the inexperienced anyone would think Total War had really good AI.

I mean I know the Civ AI has never been anything to write home about, but it feels remarkably retarded this time around. I still haven't beaten my Spain game.

Trajan was a little more interesting the first few turns but then turned into the same slog.

Maybe I'm just too old for Civ now but I used to be able to kill a ridiculous amount of time in these games without even realizing it.

He besieged Altdorf, but I had my allies march to relieve it. I'm actually really sad I didn't have an army near by but basically all the Chaos LLs and Norscan tribes around and besieging Altdorf were annihilated in a series of clashes with masses of Bretonnian, Estalian and Tilean relief armies. Archaon bitched out into those mountains.

It was the largest series of clashes I've seen in this game so far in such a small area.

And I fucking missed it.

Don't quote me on this, but I think barbs won't start shitting out units if you kill their scouts before they find you.
And yeah, AI is a bit too crazy on warmongering. What's worse is their inability to keep their military upgraded and relevant, though. Firaxis really need to do something about all this. I've found a very reliable way of expanding through defensive wars, and it doesn't trigger everyone, but that's about it.

This was the closest battle I've ever had. It's fitting that it happened at 8 Peaks.

What a fucking mess. My warriors were incredibly outclassed by the Black Orks, but the Heroes saved the day.

Until the fucking spider came out.

In the end it came down to a Thane, Belegar, the Engineer and about 30 Dwarf Warriors, but they finished the Arachnarok and routed the remaining Orks.

Belegar died nearly finishing the spider. It was amazing to watch. Sleep tight, Dwarfbro.

now hopefully I can hold out long enough to rebuild something resembling an army

How do I play as Chaos? It feels like I can't win 20vs20 battles (especially against Dwarves) early game. Marauders feel absolutely worthless, which sucks because they look real cool.

Whenever I make a new stack I cannot for the life of me keep it alive as the AI will chase it to the Warp and back, constantly ending their movement JUST out of my range, or abusing ambush stance, and generally swarm it.

How do I get gud as Chaos?

On the tabletop they were basicly Empire Swordsmen but with better damage and toughness...which is why their in-game representation is gross to me...like a lot of them... They don't know what they're doing anymore and it makes me sad.
>>
>>158542746
>>158542694
Nah, they aren't supposed to be a flanking unit. Forsaken are supposed to be flanking infantry.

Marauders are (supposed to be) cheap line units that you either use to weaken/tire their front line or match against something favorable to get a good return for your gold.

What they currently are are garbage undertuned cheap units that can't do anything because they're worse in every way to equivalent units even though they're a part of the faction that is melee focused.

At this point, they need something like 3 more weapon damage and 4 more defense. That will about even them out with Swordmen since Swordsmen have 15 more armor.

There also needs to be a throwing axe variant for 650

>>
>>158545703
What dawi need most are non fucked slayers and units that can actually do damage.
>>
>>158545893

The Dawi still have some issues, mostly not having an answer to cavalry (The Bolt thrower was a good idea but underperforms). Their biggest strenght is still their ranged/arty being really strong. Making their front lines more killy would be a mistake. But yeah, fix slayers to fuck up anything big and it'd be great.

Actual /his/ custodian here, this faggot is a low-tier baiter pls ignore

I'll concede I guess on making their frontlines more killy but fucking damnit, slayers NEED to be killy. They should be the fuck shit up units the Dawi have in melee but they never actually get to do shit.
>>
>>158546062

I do agree on that, slayers dont really have a place in a Dawi army at the moment, but I wouldn't know how to fix them. Give them a ward safe perhaps? Reduce their cost? For their price they underpeform and dont do enough. The issue just is how to fix them.

Then the battle against Kurgan marauders ensues, good guy is captured, arrogant prick is rescued by Kislevites whom he despites, thinking about them as savages. His chapters and character development are really good though IMO and the ending gave me feels I never asked for.

Athel Loren.jpg
55KB, 1280x720px
Athel Loren canonically is a land that has a tenuous relation with space and time. It is much vaster than it appears on a map and yet, through the whims of the forest, it is possible to enter and find yourself leaving immediately from the other side.

Similarly, what you perceive as a mere day inside the woods can be a century outside it.

It is precisely because of this special relationship with the dimensions of time and space that 2D waifus are able to live there. They are locked in struggle against the brutal 3D wageslavery of the outside world, and the unquestionable best faction.

They have Stalk and Vanguard so you can literally deploy them in a corner on the enemy's side of the map, then quickly move them in and and wipe out the artillery.

Rape.

>>158553565
That's a very good question. The Asrai have gradually become physiologically distinct from other elves, adapting the waifu nature that is called "a fey aspect" in the Old World.

As beings whose existence is inherently at odds with the laws of their universe, Wood Elves, like Daemons, find it difficult to exist outside their loci of power for any sustained duration. Rather than vanishing into the warp, however, they may simply stop being Asrai- The forest loses its hold upon then, and they become nothing more than primitive Asur. Within months, they find an irresistible urge to work and apply themselves.


Because the World Roots of Athel Loren range to other forests as well, they are able to safely range beyond their tradition home as long as it is a sacred wood. Most crucially, the Dryads, cute waifus themselves, function as a sort of mobile bastion of Athel Loren from which Asrai may draw succor when pressed. Because the Dryads are much the lesser presence when compared to the Forest itself, prolonged exposure and at times transfer of fluids is necessary for Asrai to sustain themselves by means of the Dryads, but it is available as a measure of last recourse.

They are much worse for actual skirmishing. Without shields and armor they go down like punks to crossbowmen or bretonnian archers. They can do exciting gorilla warfare though, so it's really a matter of different roles. They both have a place in the roster.

Is this an old campaign that you played with mods? I had the same issue when I picked up an old campaign, because the game had updated one last time after I paused the campaign, so I had to disable the mod.

very unlikely, I have never seen it happend

>>158555206
You're absolutely right, I don't know why I thought they didn't

The armor is still a pretty big drop though. I wonder if that and the less ammunition alone is enough to make them worse as pure skirmishers. That'd be pretty lame if they were just the go-to superior option over quarrellers really.
>>
>>158554982
it's 3 points you could which you could use in Axe Lord or further down the tree, and they are very dependant on positioning which you don't have to worry about when you have rangers. I'm not saying quarrelers are bad, I just think that the added mobility of rangers make them superior.

>dwarves

Why are you fighting dwaves early game? Why are people so shit at such a simple faction?
>>
>>158555262
Unlikely, they always over make these bloody useless things. Even if they did, pretty sure you can just ask them if they have any codes.I think they're supposed to have a few extra or something?
>>
>>158555236
There's no joke, though, only the truth.

Innuendo is a pretty tough concept for gorposters, anon.

uh

What are Kraka Drak then?
>>
>>158556065
Avoid Kraka Drak like the plague, raze their cities if you get a clear chance, but they are not worth fighting against in the early campaign, they can't get stronger anyways

Once you have wiped out Varg, then mop the floor with them

You obviously get the quarreler buff on a lord that will phase out normal warriors fast, or get both on a lord that will have a low tier cheap army. They're also less depending on positioning than you'd think if you're smart about positioning. 200+ kills for most of the quarrelers will be a regular occurrence if you do it right. See pic related for an example of one of the most basic deployments to use quarrelers with no repositioning.

It's a vanilla legendary game, so only an autosave. I've been playing the game pretty consistently the last few weeks and this morning it randomly decided to shit itself.
>>
>>158556202
unless you go south to fight Kislev you have to pass the Kraka's territory to get to Varg

in the early game they are somehow manageable

I usually raze the first varg town i you find and awake the tribe in the second one north

rewatched some of the trailers, why can't we deploy siege weapons on castle walls?

That would cost too many Charlemanges.
