Memeing aside, do people actually think that wood elves are going to be a horde, conquer settlements normally, or have some kind of unique mechanic regarding taking settlements?

Wood Elves should only be able to conquer forest settlements, once they leave forested areas they should become a horde.

Wood Elves conquering and occupying a massive city like Altdorf is spitting in the face of all the lore that surrounds them.

CA can add more forested areas/settlements on the map to make Wood Elves more exciting if they want, but we shouldn't be seeing shit like Kislev occupied by them.

>>159162586
I think they will be able to take settlements in their little forest, and settlements that belong to the High elves and Dark elves when they get added. making them a horde would be lame.

I wonder what kind of settlements will be AL, like cities, holds or something else a la norsca (maybe Elvish realms, that can be taken by WE, HE, DE)

>>159165370
Anon, when people think you're an idiot it's better to keep your mouth shut than to remove all doubt.

How do you think Wood Elves will play on the campaign map?

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.

You're not very good at this, are you?

>>159165675
I feel like they need a semi unique settlement pattern
Maybe they can only take settlements that reach tier 5 (capitals) and it turns into some overgrown mess

>>159165879
I'm not the one going senile here, anon.

>>159165973

While I like the idea of turning provinces in a forest and going from there. Having the faction with little to no siege, no armour and a whole lot of skirmishing power primarily taking on walls isn't a very fun idea in my opinion.

>>159165675
>How do I want them to play
Start with AL, can only take specific settlements, but those settlements give you massive benefits.

>How do I think they will play
Forestation mechanic: every time you fill up the Elfiness meter, a forest spawns in, with a full stack of allied units in it.

WOOD ELVES WILL BE CRUCIFIED ON THEIR TREE

>>159165973
If they cant expand they will be an insignificant addition to the map.

If they go with the one region they will need like a super hard city to take and have a way to recruit multiple armies in a region. Maybe all settlements in their land are tier 5 and the capital tier 6 so that they dont run out of building slots.

I would rather they just compete for land with Bretonnia, Empire and VC though.

'em pointy ears still 'aven't noticed I ain't really one of 'em

>>159165675

When they take over provinces, the city's main building decides how overgrown the area gets. from 1-3 the area is still passable for any faction without taking any damage. But after that they will. Any armies hostile to the wood elves from a settlement level 4 and up has a chance to be intercepted by an WE army, which strenght depends on a building that'll replace walls for wood elves cities.

And instead of population they'll have...forrestation or something, I dunno. They grow slower but in exchange the building chains become more powerfull. And if you raze a wood elf city/village you get mad profits in the way of tons of cash or like a boost to your logs trade resource.

Just rambling while I should be studying.

>>159167256
I hope the Forrest does not cause attrition.

I would rather it be different bonuses, such as increased chance of a successful ambush, higher public order, slower movement speed for enemies, and reinforcement range is decreased.

>>159167581

Thinking about it, yeah. Attrition is already quite overused as it is. Maybe give wood elven armies in it the standard ambush mode the beastmen have? And give enemies within it limited sight.

desu it would make the most sense if Wood Elves were able to conquer other elf settlements and got a reunite elfdom long campaign goal when the other elves come out

barring that CA should just add elven settlements in various forested areas, since the campaign for elves will have you hunting down beastmen across the globe anyway and lore has elves going into the forest of shadows and the forest of artois to hunt beastmen it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to have elven strongholds there even if it wouldn't be 100% lore friendly

Third and least desirable is letting elves conquer human stuff

desu if you wanted to make Athel Loren special and have Wood Elves have a lot of settlements and subfactions you could just make it so that movement speed is reduced to 1/20th of what it normally is for armies outside of the forest to simulate the movement of time within the forest

But then give wood elves their shitty beastpath mechanic so they can zip around the forest and so the beastmemes can too, while making it so that underway can't do the same

Or something

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.

>I hope they can settle in human settlements

You clearly aren't an actual fan of Wood Elves in Warhammer or you wouldn't be advocating for something that flies so flagrantly in the face of all their written lore.

You seem like one of those faggots who just wants Elves for the sake of having Elves. Kill yourself.

When will Beastmen adopt the whole rape human women thing?

And will Dark Elves have slaves and shit for all to see? Like fucking Dawn of War Soulstorm had.

They already do that, or do you mean when will we see a "Rape Captives" option in the Beastmen Post-Battle screen?

If so, we won't ever see that. I mean this is a game that couldn't even launch with full blood/gore because it would fuck up the rating. They aren't going to include rape or even reference it if at all possible.

>And will Dark Elves have slaves and shit for all to see?

They likely will have a building that references slaves as well as pop-up events that reference slavery but again I think CA is going to go out of their way to avoid all references to sexual slavery (even though it exists in the lore).

>>159179747

>>159179891

Crusades is best, followed by Americas which is 2nd best and easiest. Teutonic is good, and Britannia is weakest.

Is it weird that while I find gorey rape and breeding like that very disgusting, I find it so fascinating I'd gladly see it happen out of pure curiosity.

We're never going to get rid of this purple prose spouting autist, are we?

>>159180535
Pretty much yea, almost all the sub-faction campaigns are more interesting than the main faction ones.

Belegar, Skarsnik, and Wurrzag are more exciting to play as than Dwarfs/Greenskins proper by leaps and bounds. Maybe that is just because I've already played all the main faction campaigns to completion twice though.

>>159180646
>>159180694

Common consensus seems to be Crusades is good at least. Start there.

>>159180917
Does Wurrzag have a mini-campaign of his own or is he just a Greenskin campaign but with a focus on savage troops?

There's really only three possible choices for how the Wood Elves will work as a faction.

Super Optimistic (Read: Unlikely)
>Athel Loren becomes a "theater of war" ala: Empire Total War with all twelve Welf "kingdoms" or whatever represented along with the various tree spirits and shit. Featuring a number of settlements and provinces that can be confederated/occupied and can only be held by Welf factions.

Likely Mk. 1
>Athel Loren becomes some sort of super province, broken into X number of settlements that can be attacked like any other kind of settlement but will feature some unique gimmick to set it apart.

Likely Mk. 2
>Athel Loren is an AI controlled entity and the Welfs are a horde faction, the forest is a permanent ally to you and will issue orders similar to grudges that you must carry out. It's basically The Last Roman and the Welfs are the Roman Expedition.

>>159178431
Wasn't there one for August too?

>>159180917
>more interesting

It's because CA has finally started feeling their oats. That and they also realized stacking everything into static monolithic races was going to kill replayability even with new LLs and units if the progression is virtually the same every single time.

I keep holding out hope they'll rename Empire to Reikland and Dorfs to Khaz-a-karak and The Empire and The Dwarfs will be the name for confederated factions.

>>159181116
He doesn't have all events that Skarsnik/Belegar do if that is what you mean, but he gets a pretty unique campaign simply due to his start point and his massive prevalence towards Savage Orcs.

>>159181172
>It's basically The Last Roman and the Welfs are the Roman Expedition
There needs to be a faction like this in the game. Perhaps a human faction where you're vassal of the Empire or some shit.

>>159181513
>rename Empire to Reikland and Dorfs to Khaz-a-karak
Didn't care about that at first, but this is really starting to bug me after playing Belegar's dorfs. Fix it, CA.

>Khaz-a-karak
That's a grudging.

>>159181697
Dark Elves would be more likely

desu the "beastmen are the same as greenskins" whining is retarded anyway, since the beastmen have their own special moon mechanics as well as the fact that they're a special chaos horde

Though it does kind of feel like Orcs aren't that special since Beastmen and Dwarfs have similar mechanics as well as having other special mechanics, but I guess orcs make up for it by having so many different campaigns and ways to play

But it's certain that if skaven have ignore terrain underway-access and have goblin expendable mechanics that people will bitch that skaven are just goblin clones even if that won't make any sense at all

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.

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.

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.

>hey cleetus dese folks have it way better dan us!

>down with da nobles!

And that's how a revolution starts.

The reason why technology is banned is because the nobles are afraid of the peasantry getting access to armor piercing stuff like crossbows and guns.

If you're into the Warhammer franchise or are even remotely interested in it, then WH is hands down the best TW game.

It's the best WH game since Dawn of War, since Dark Omen, since... well, anything.

>About to play M2 for the first time any different from rome 1,

Settlments are split into cities and forts. Cities are focused on income, whereas forts give you access to strong military units.
You can also recruit more than one unit per turn, so that's a godsend.

It's better in every way compared to R1.

>also who should I play as?

Turks are suprisingly fun.

>He thinks the neet elves will have unique campaign mechanics

They're gonna have a reskinned vampiric corruption called Forest Growth

>>159206413

That doesn't make much sense. If anything their mechanic will be about teleporting between forests.

>>159206854
Given that they'll be one of the shootiest armies in the game it probably won't matter unless you never actually fight battles and thus the massive differences between the factions on the battlefield don't matter to you

Also having to time your campaigns so they fall during the warm seasons (assuming they have a seasons mechanic) will be a unique challenge

Alright, anyone here know how I'd go about making my own custom faction renamer mod for TWWH? Now that we're getting official subfactions, the generic "Dwarfs" and such are getting on my nerves a tad. There seem to be a lot of these on the workshop (none which suit my fancy quite exactly) so it mustn't be that hard. I think I saw that one actually changes the factions names after confederating, which might be interesting to mess with as well.

>>159206854

Knowing CA I'm guessing it will be Beast Path as the Beastmen use the exact same thing.

It's also possible as some other anons pointed out that they act like normal civ while in forests, but you have to launch "expeditions" when going outside.

I love your pastas, elf-kun.
I really hope you'll make one for when elfs are finally released.

Which dumb fucking cunt at CA thought that not allowing you to disband a Legendary Lord was a good idea and why can't we respec a Lord we get via Confederation yet?

I have the opportunity to confederate the Dwarves as Belegar, and get Grombrindal, Thorgrim (who will be immediately disbanded because of braindead AI skill points), and Ungrim.

Except when I do, my economy takes a massive tanking because of their upkeep, even when I delete their entire armies. They've got a shitton of landmass, and I'd rather not war with them.

Its fucked because I remember disbanding Wurzzag in my Greenskin campaign because his skills were all fucked up.

Also cute elf.

>>159205706
Or why not simply keep the original M2 UI. That shit was nice an clean.

>>159213428
No
the forest spirits hibernate/become sluggish and for that reason the elves stay up and keep an eye on things until the cold goes away
its one of the reasons the forest lets the elves be there in the first place

He alive, not cute.

>>159213428
Only some of them do, the ones that especially want to be comfy, or those who are dating a forest spirit.

Guarding the forest is one of the Wood Elves only jobs, and they hate it because they are work-shirking NEETs, but home security is the one job NEETs can't get out of.
