I was a bit slow since I had to find that Durthu pic in my folder. I'd argue my thread is more relevant, but this one wins for being first.

Honestly, cheers for someone getting off their ass and making a thread besides me.

Speaking of Durthu though, do you guys think they will do a Skarsnik/Angrund type of thing with him? I noticed in the datamine files he was in his own faction. So maybe it's a case that the Wood Elves have to integrate the tree spirits before using any of their units?

Other than the occasional "why do you guys tolerate DLC" arguments that crop up occasionally, /twg/ is a pretty decent general. We get decent discussions going, and the constant updates with Warhammer means there is usually new things to talk about.

Though it can get pretty bad when a DLC is close to release and we are biting our nails off for CA to release official news.

Okay, we have a new thread. I'm back from the corner store and I've decided to give you chucklefucks a chance. For the love of God, read the full post before responding.

To reiterate I have 6 Grombrindal the White Dwarf keys to disperse amongst /twg/.

I also have 10 of the 20% of TW:W keys but I don't think anyone really wants those.

HOW TO GET A KEY: Respond to this post with a timestamped (important) image of documentation that shows you aren't near any GW stores. This documentation can be a passport, a driver's license, a housing lease, any document that shows your citizenship will do. Please don't be a dumbass, make sure to blur out your names and any important information you don't want displayed aside from the nationality.

Priority will be given to non-US/EU anons, but if there aren't many takers I'll be giving them out to basically anyone who is just far away from GW stores in general.

Please provide me with a Steam ID so I can contact you and provide you the code via Steam Chat.

RETRIEVAL PROCESS: I'll add you on steam, confirm your interest, and give you the code. You will then confirm you've used the code and everything is working fine. After that you are free to do whatever.

You can delete me from your friends list, call me a faggot and block me, keep me as a friend, cuss me out in Russian, whatever it is you want to do.

Also, be patient if I don't get to you immediately. I'll be responding to posts one at a time so if I get spammed it might be a moment.

Sounds reasonable for the mini campaign. Doubt there's enough space for that on the main map.

Hope they'll spice up the mini campaign because honestly the beastmen one was kinda bland.

>>159075582
I'm hoping it will actually be a narrative campaign this time, instead of a stupid list of objectives like the Beastmen.

Like having some unique dialogue during important battles, or having a specific objective like "stop Morghur's resurrection" that will change the campaign's progression if you fail. Anything really to not make it the one note borefest of the Beastmen DLC.

Fair enough. If /twg/ doesn't want them, that is fine by me. I don't really get anything out of providing people with free codes, was just trying to do some people a favor.

I spent an hour or so going down to the GW store in London and spent money on some of these codes as I could only get a few for free. If people don't want to put forth even a modicum of effort to retrieve them, I'd rather give them away to retarded redditors.

Naieth the Prophetess.jpg

It is now November. An unbidden chill steals over the forest. The boughs lie heavy with frost, condemned to an early winter. Gaurach-Dúin in the tongue of the Asrai, it is a time of stillness and a time of dread. The fey spirits to whom the protection and provision of the Asrai is entrusted are consigned to an unshakable somnolence, unable to fulfill their sacred trust. The Wood Elves, deprived of their sturdiest companions, are forced to toil for themselves. It is the final horror. Some kinbands retreat deep into the roots of the wood, unable to countenance debasing labor and the necessity of work. In the halls beneath the Oak of Ages, The Sisters of Twilight nestle close to one another. Many are the Asrai who join their Dryad sisters in pursuit of warmth and the long sleep that stretches across seasons.

But the forest has need of its guardians, and will not abide dereliction of duty. Naieth preaches dire auguries in the early coming of the Season of Stillness. To those who have known Gorposting, Goblins and embarrassing rats, a still greater terror lurks. A great sorcery wrought in rain-cursed Albion will thrust the Asrai to the fore of the outside world's unsightly struggles and toil; The strange world of wageslavery can be ignored no longer.

Wood Elves Soon.

It is typically because the AI sees that you're wealthy, so they won't take any offers unless you give them some of your gold/favor/teef/magic/etc. When I was playing my Aksum cucking the world Attila campaign, I frequently had the AI request something simple like a non-aggression pact, but also demand like 40,000 from me since I was so rich at the time. The amount they asked for, obviously, increased as I got richer.

I can't wait. To run all that on ultra I think a PC upgrade in 2018 is required.

Wew lad. I'm hard.
Come to think of it has anyone counted how many regions are in the base Warhammer map? CA said each expansion is standalone and would be comparable in land to the base game. I still think the first expansion will be an expansion to the south and east adding TK,OK and CD's. The borders for a standalone expansions are already in place. I know everyone says the Russian datamine says Expac 2 is Chaos Gods but I don't see how that would work as a standalone unless they use Empires theatre system to a Realm of Chaos and/or massively expanded Chaos Wastes.

Pic related. Excuse the shittiness. I made it pre launch(January in fact) before we knew the maps.

Not a bad guess on the maps dude. Would make sense actually.

They said Skaven won't be in the first game so Skaven as DLC for the first expansion would make a lot of sense aswell with the fact you have the main faction start at Skavenblight so there a threat in the west and a minor playable one at Crookback Mountain in the Darklands so theres a threat in the east.

Even though the map is
>>159089935
I can definitely see where a lot of that would work.
The database DLC has gone dry for the next ones after Wood Elves and Bretonnia so could a Expansion 1 in Spring 2017 be real? It's certainly possible.
Considering the entire fantasy team went to work on Expansion 1 the week the game shipped and the map and its rough outlined ingame regions are already in the game files. According to the Russians there are topography and textures already in place beyond the mists that block the south and east.

I don't see what they would do for DLC though. A shit ton of Lord packs? Minor faction remakes? Cosmetic additions like banners and drums?

Basically a strategic simulator that accounts for realistic communication times and information limits of a pre industrial battlefield. obviously there'd be more options for officer agency and so on to make this more feasible, but basically a more realistic commanding scenario in regards to the practical things.

How would you get troops to disengage? It's pretty hard to communicate over the sound of warfare.
>officer agency
so the platoons do their own thing and you kind of gently direct them in a general direction?

I think there's a limit on the realism on these kinds of things, for me at least. The appeal of total war, is that I over see the battlefield I give my commands and my troops obey. This just seems like more clutter between you and what you want to happen.
It'd be like having to wait for permission from the senate to go on a campaign. Or waiting for parliament to debate the ethics of a new technology. It sounds cool initially but you can bet your ass it'll be executed poorly and it'll be tedious.

Everyone matters in playing as the Empire.

When does the Marrienburg war start? When do you have to start worrying/dealing with Skarsnik? How are the Dwarfs doing? How well is Clan Angarand doing? Is there an empire faction growing too much out east? Is Brettonia developing in my favor (confederating). Will Karak Ziffrin (or something) be a problem? VC in Talabec?

There are a lot more variables in that campaign to manage and as mentioned >>159096843

Empire dosen't need anything more then Swordsmen and Halberds for a solid line of defense. That's how good they are as a faction.
>>
>>159101992
That line would get wrecked by skirmishers you nonce. You need ranged units to have a fully capable army.

Listen brother im gonna give you some words of advice.

In tabletop I was an ogre kingdoms player.

I'm gonna have to wait like 2 years to play ogre kingdoms here in total warhammer. So I know a thing or two about waiting.

Here you are, only a few weeks for a new faction. For free. Sure you can play some crummy half assed mod and have 'fun' with something incomplete. Or you can wait a bit longer and have some premium quality handed to you.

Why sully yourself on a bretonnia playthrough now, when you can wait a bit and get a much better experience?
>>
>>159101217
I hope they include a HUEG amount of quests for Bretonnia, since, you know, that's what they do.

I haven't played Total War since Medieval 2 and have recently gotten into Warhammer. I don't remember ranged units being this powerful in Med 2. I also expected more cavalry and weighty charges but, hey pike squares are cool too.
>>
>>159102171
Breh. Listen. What if it takes longer?

What if I cannot force serfdom on every single human peasant for two months?

Then you can choose to wait, or feel as if you're playing the same campaign again and lose all motivation ten turns in.
>>
>>159102585
>more cavalry and weighty charges
Play chaos knights, demi knights, blood knights, and minotaurs.
>>
>>159102971
Thanks for the suggestions. What is good for mounted skirmishers, like Poland or Novgorod in Med2?
>>
>>159103093
There are some but they aren't really worth it for the most part I feel. Empire has 3 variants, Chaos will eventually fight you with 10 stacks of skirmish cavalry and boil your blood.
>>
>>159096313
I don't find Empire that fun because there is the matter of constant enemies trying to fuck you from all sides, but having to contend with counts being faggots and beastmen trying to burn your outlying towns down and marienburg jews trying to fuck you up and orcs and skarsnik coming out of the mountains to fuck with you and vampires in the east fucking things up certainly keeps things interesting

With the dwarves you don't really have to contend with other dwarves but instead have to send your conquering armies out to save the holds before the orcs kill them off, and then they confederate with you

with the vampires it's obviously a game of waiting and building up agents and cash for a big push into the empire before or after chaos runs through

With beastmen it's peepee poopoo

I guess I find Chaos interesting for the same reasons as Empire, there is never a dull moment as the Chaos horde- the problem of course being that the whole tribal awakening process is pretty much retarded and a huge red herring

With Orcs you beat the gits over the head and force them to join you and then swarm everywhere

Only Empire has a constant round robin of dickheads trying to fuck you

I assume Bretonnia will end up somewhat similar

Elves will probably be more similar to vampires with waiting around and building up to unsheathe your katana and backstab Archaon and Morghur once they come around
>>
>>159098029
CA should really add in a tribe of Forest Goblins with savage goblins and spider units

Pretty much, unwalled city battles are a bit of a joke, I think the reason they are absent from TWW is because of this.

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.

thats what they do in R2 yes
if you have like 4 units of pikes in a garrison you basically cant lose the settlement against AI because you pike phalanx in the two streets at the centre and the AI just runs itself into the pikes; cavalry and all
>>
>>159111258
sounds about right
so hard to get a good start with bretonnia as it is now
knights of the realm feel like shit
the only worthwhile units seem to be grail knights and pegasus knights and even they die if they stick around after a charge in
pulling out and doing another charge doesnt seem to work either because they drop like flies doing it

I don't know, Angrund campaign is going pretty fun for me too.

>Start sending money to Torgrim to help him out and improve relationships in hopes of confideration later on
>Recapture Karak Eight Peaks and start cleaning the Badlands from greenskin filth
>Empire, which is my military ally, starts the war against VC, who conqured the whole eastern part of the Empire, up to Norsca
>It's an epic WW2 style struggle between Karl and Manfred in the Hearthland of the Empire
>A stack which i send to help gets completely gangbanged by 4 Vampire stacks
>Bretonia declares war on the Empire and i'm obliged to join
>Now i'm spread really thin amongst 3 theaters of war
>Can't field enough armies to steamroll either of my opponents
>Manage to confederate with Thorgrim after he gets completely shat on by Grimgor and left with inly 1 province
>Now, that Southern Badlands are stabilized i can send Belegar and his elite army to help Empire out, while i leave 1 runelord to finish recapturing South

It is the most fun TW campaign i played since Shogun 2, especially compared to regular Dwarves, where you eliminate Grimgor on turn 30 and then just sit on your ass for 100 turns, building up your economy.

I'm getting so fucking sick and tired of fighting dwarfs only for the battle to come down to them winning because their shitty lords just refuse to either die or quit.

Over 50 turns of progress on three or more characters gone down the drain because they some how route over 500 Orcs with one fucker.

I can accept defeat if the odds aren't even or I get out played but this is just fucking stupid.

Putin is goddamn terrible.

Their economy is in free fall, social security has almost completely disappeared, crime rate is off the roof, drug abuse is increasing, and corruption is potentially higher now than it was during the Soviet era.
He cares more about 'muh global status' than about his country's wellbeing, refusing to change the military budget while the country is falling apart.

Fuck Putin. Worthless faggot who can't take criticism.

First off, yes it is.

Secondly, "Freeing their people" was not the reason the US gave for invading Iraq.

The reason they gave was that Iraq was harboring Terrorists and that Saddam Hussein presented an immediate threat because he had WMDs.

Both of those reasons were made up.

There is but I think its still garbage because the city building aspect hasn't been fully fleshed out yet. It treats you like you're a Norscan but for some reason your ability to build is severely reduced. Chaos does need to be fleshed out. Lorewise Norscan Chaos warriors wouldn't be settling in the southern lands but I'd like to see the ability to at least claim all of the north as your own. Afterall the warhost is supplied with men from the Norscan tribes. Almost feels like Chaos was shoehorned in as a horde faction just to have a horde faction at launch. Daemons of Chaos would have been a better horde faction and Beastmen are just a superior horde faction due to their mechanics of actually being fucking able to bring multiple armies together to fight the 4 doomstack Vampire counts train.

CA saying "Might be a long wait. Trees take a while to grow." in response to WOOD ELVES WHEN and Grace saying on their official forums that they could go all week without any news if they wanted to leads me to believe they might not have anything even on thursday.

>>159127189
I'm with you.

Malekith being the TRUE PHOENIX KING was the point where I realised the End Times were hopelessly fucked.

Like, the apparent point they tried to make was that "If Malekith had stayed in the fire a little longer, he wouldn't have been burned". That's like saying that if he hadn't failed the test he would've succeeded.

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.

Yeah because Putin has done a excellent job of lowering Russia's dependency on a single product that happens to have as volatile prices as nitroglycerin.
And he's also done a good job of lowering corruption. And removing state monopoly. Not to mention it's clearly more important to modernise the army rather than modernising the roads and hospitals and social welfare. Nope, better spend that money on new tanks instead.

He's a fucking tool, anon. Russia is not a global power, it's a shitty country that's being abandoned by its own people by the year and it tries to hold on to old former glory by being complete and utter dicks to its neighbours because it want to be a big boy again.

The Empire campaign is so comfy. This time I tried allying the Brettonians instead of outright conquering them, and I think it's the better option. They were total bro's the entire campaign, clearing out rebellions for me and sending big stacks to help out with the chaos invasions.

The new Regiments of renown are amazing too, the magic damage handgunners and cannons just dunked on the vampire counts.

If you stack +sack value from retainers and such (and you fucking should) you'll get way more than that, even minor settlements will give 20k+ after a while.

America funded the overthrow of a pro-Russian president, the Russians intervened because allowing America to put military bases on Russia's border is intolerable

The units are pretty good imo. Only thing I don't like about it is it feels like you make too much money early on. It balances out later when the army upkeep% goes up but its easy to sit and stockpile cash.

Kek

Even if America and NATO were 10 times as antagonistic towards Russia as they actually are that still wouldn't justify Russia's conduct, nor the fact that Putin has blatantly neglected to actually run his fucking country in favor of publicly masturbating for more than a decade in order to prove how manly he is and how he isn't scared of nobody.

Micromanaging your retainers is in fact a lot more work than most people are expecting when they load up Chaos

It makes sense when you explain it, but making a faction which requires you to have a strong grasp on the game's mechanics in order to play properly is generally not a good thing when most people are expecting to be able to just pick up and play all the factions without problem

Sorry if I wasn't clear, that is exactly what I want for Kemmler. For Krell to be his eternal bodyguard but for them to be a single unit/entity.

I don't want Krell to be like Belegar's Ancestor Ghosts who can die, because Krell should be eternal for as long as Kemmler is.
>>
>>159151131

Gelt is frankly a lot better than Kemmler, at least Gelt gets a flying mount and gives you access to something you otherwise couldn't use at all with in your faction
>>

Lore of Metal is really shitty

Realistically Skaven will probably be the next major DLC race after Wood Elves because all the other races would require an expansion of the current map, which CA has explicitly stated won't be happening until the stand-alone expansions.

Tomb Kings simply don't have enough space in the South right now to be thrown in whereas Skaven can pretty much just be dropped on Skavenblight and CA can call it a day.
>>
>>159149687
yeah, only because normalfags and casuals suck dick at RTS games
>>
>>159151418
I can only assume that there is some kind of engine limitation going on with giving units a toggleable flying ability, since the black coach and Kemmler should both be able to do it (and having the black coach be able to fly might actually make it slightly useful, since it's really terrible at the moment)
>>
>>159151141

Steel Faith is kind of better. Lorehammer adds a lot of shitty units and goes straight for a paper-rock-scissor balance. SFO does a crapton of tweaks and gives you a new experience without having a ton of clutter in it.
>>
>>159151557
Neferata should be her own sub-faction starting in Silver Pinnacle once Tomb Kings are added and the map expands further South.

The regular VC faction in-game (i.e. the Von Carstein bloodlines) would never follow her.

>>159151564
Pretty sure tomb keks and the other two to the east aren't planned to be part of an expansion

Unless tomb keks get their own special fall of the samurai mini-expansion

>>159151756
Well that means the Tomb Kings are gonna fucking suck as a faction then, the map doesn't have much space for more factions to be squished down south without a map expansion.

I think you are reading too much into the Russia leaks. They are a guideline, not gospel.

Part of me hopes that Queek starts in Karak Eight Peaks and his campaign revolves around defending from Belegar/Skarsnik's invasions.

I'd also be content with him just starting in the Badlands and needing to march his ass over there as well though.


I think Thanquol/Queek are basically guaranteed as the two starting LLs for Skaven at this point much like how Louen/Morgiana are guaranteed for Bretonnia.

Yea, good luck with that mate. Maybe they'll forget about Elves and Lizardmen too while they are at it.

Ikit is definitely a popular choice and guaranteed if Skaven get 3 LLs at launch. Otherwise I think they will go Thanquol/Queek for the Caster/Melee pairing.

CA has said they won't be doing map expansions until the stand-alone expansions so why don't you go ahead and show me where they have stated otherwise?

The point was that the best/worst iterations in the series are always subjective viewpoints.

Saying the sky is falling and that TW has been in decline since X's release is an opinion typically forwarded by bitter idiots who pine for nostalgic memories they will never be able to access again because they aren't children/teenagers anymore.

There is also no evidence they won't be, you are backing yourself into a corner here.

It wouldn't be hard to include the Dark Lands, the Southlands, and the Ogre Kingdoms in a stand alone expansion. It would be no more "awkwardly divorced" from the rest of the map than Ulthuan, Lustria, and Naggaroth would be.

You are performing mental gymnastics to justify your opinion that has no basis aside from "I want it this way, so that is how it is going to be."

Is there any way to get around killing Greenskins as Skarskin?

We have a good alliance and together own most of the map, Chaos is coming and the VC are number 1 power i dont want to kill Grimgor but they wont confederate with me.

I probably should've phrased that differently. It was just as shit as Rome 2 but I was told to wait for updates seeing as Rome 2 wasn't getting any that could actually fix its flaws.
>>
>>159154836
Just let Grimgor take the brunt of the Chaos invasion. Then they'll either confederate because you're stronger, or their lands will be ripe for the taking.

So, finally looked at the Russian leak.

It never occurred to me that they might grow the Old World map by individual race packs, instead of dedicating a standalone to it. Mostly because I had no idea what the other standalone could be.

But doing a huge Demons of Chaos standalone with a fully fledged faction for each god sounds plausible. If they want to do an army for each god, this is the best way to do it, because people will bitch and moan if they parcel them out in separate DLCs.

Does anyone struggled playing Shogun 2? It's battles are way different then any other in the series. People die so much faster, and the game encourges you to be super aggresive.

It is horribly subjective. There are new cool scripts, the units look better, the map is grand, you have control of your settlement politics, the battles are hard and last long.
The battle movement is sadly clumsy because of the action delay, not all buildings are documented, the amount of units is good, but needs more additions. It tends to crash because of the memory issues.
Since AE isn't out this is a good alternative if you don't mind m2 too much

Use them on cav and they're pretty good, especially since the cav can't retaliate. They're not too bad against monsters either.
>>
>>159155225
That's kinda sad
>>
>>159156280

Brimstone copters can be worth it, especially if the enemy is bring extremely high-cost, high armor targets like Demi-gryphs or Blood Knights.

They're a very important tool for Dwarfs in Multiplayer
>>
>>159156280
I drop their bombs on either archers or infantry blobs and then use their AP missile attacks on cav or large targets that need to be focused down
they're also good at shutting down artillery pieces since you can destroy them outright & chasing down key fleeing units so they don't rally
>>
>>159150582
None of these campaigns are done.
>>
>>159156280

Irondrakes and Brimstone copters are practically exact opposites

Irondrakes are amazing against giant blobs of unarmored infantry, which is 90% of what you'll be fighting early game as Dwarfs

Meanwhile, Brimstone copter are only good against expensive, high-armored targets with low unit sizes, something you'll be fighting almost none of early game as Dwarfs.

Just hold onto them until Chaos shows up, they'll prove their worth then.

If he can get an allied stack of dwarfs to sit with him they can't sally out as far as I know because it is 2 separate factions with their sphere of influence over the city

They can sally regardless, they're just less likely to because of the decreased likelihood of them winning.

I had no problem taking it with all 4 dads, a few bolt and grude throwers, 10 rangers and a few longbeards. The rangers and throwers will kill over half of them on the wall, then ghost dads can smash what remains with alittle backup from non-ghost beards. Just keep Belegar on his beloved oath stone.

I hope they can settle in human settlements, it would be so shit if they could not take new land.

Beastmen almost add nothing to the game since horde factions are nothing more than a nuisance, they also have the least replay value since there is nothing different to do each play through.
