> "Keeping a strong distinction between fliers and ground-based units is intentional. There are AI concerns and a bunch of other mechanics that would cost a horrendous amount of time now to implement a land button. We investigated that route some 3 years ago and deliberately chose to not do it.

What we will add in the Old World edition is a longer initial grounded timer. As long as a grounded timer is running on a flying unit on the ground, it can't take off. The current system sees a 3s timer get reset every time a flying unit on the ground collides with or gets hit by a hostile ground unit. The new system keeps this timer, but adds another one that only runs through once upon landing. This one will last around 10-12s.

In effect, a hit-and-run ground attack will now force the flyer to always stay on the ground ~3-4 times longer than before.

Kind regards, Ato"

hey guy use packfile manager to keep its format, once you have done that you can always just copy it into the data folder.

alternatively use packfile managers inbuilt loadxmod feature by going file new mod, choosing your modified files, then file>my mods> install that new mod you made.

If it makes you feel any better it's revealed that Grombrindal is Snorri and that he's forgiven Malekith for his transgressions in the books.
Well not so much forgiven as much as he threw an axe at the enemy who would backstab him and said something about how Malekith never watched his back.

They were best bros that united their races together at the time, fought back chaos and unfucked the world.

Snorri then left for some reason while Malekith really spiraled downhill after finding the chaos artifact and Morathi fucking things up. Malekith was then responsible for fucking the dwarfs over hard.

As soon as WElfs and Brets are released they can't add anything more except Skaven without extending the map.

We're talking actual new factions in the game, not reworking already existing ones. And once Brets and WElfs are out, Skaven is the only choice.

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.

Not till the new world expansion at the earliest due to the HE and DE navies being the most pwoerful and having to sail from the New World to the Old and vice versa. Even then it might not be controllable battles due to how complex it would become considering how vastly different the naval styles are, which means pre empire naval warfare a.k.a auto resolve.

Unit cards for all current naval factions exist in the game files. Here's the album:

Things are subject to change. That comment was just after it launched. Development of the game has changed drastically since due to its success for the company to the point they extended the free DLC program for the first game meaning more stuff than originally planned is being developed.

I don't think Grace outright said it won't be in ever. Just not for the first game same with Skaven.

I like how the Fog of War model for Crookback Mountain is already ingame despite the Darklands not being available for a long time to come, you can even see Mount Silverspear/Grimfang further north just east of the Silver Road. Pic very related.

For those not knowing what that is. Crookback Mountain is controlled by Clan Rictus and is the Skaven's main stronghold in the Darklands east of the Worlds Edge Mountains. Its their main transit route east so *all* Skaven have to go through Crookback to get into the Darklands as per their Under Empire tunnel network.
>>
>>160250991
If Skaven come in second game we can presume the old world map will be reworked, which would be strange considering they described more of a jigsaw rather than each game changing the other. Also how would the owners of the expansion play the Skaven if the Old world map is excluded? A plague faction in Lustria? There seems no reason to add skaven in the secodn expansion only. It needn't have the full roster, clan dlcs could release further units.

And I’m referring to The Everchosen, Lord of the End Times, Chaos Incarnate, Herald of the Apocalypse, Warlord of the forces of Chaos United, Scourge of the Empire Archaon and Destroyer of Worlds (with the End Times ability) equipped with his sword and control of the Warriors of Chaos and Slayer of Kings, a complete Exalted Grand Marshal of the Apocalypse, with all four Chaos God’s powers implanted in his chest so he can perform the arcane bolt and riding Dhorgar as well as being extremely skilled in understanding strategy and veteran warrior.

The Skaven will probably have different start positions
Main faction: Starts at Skavenblight
Subfaction: Lustria to counter Lizardmen and then Skaven subfaction in Crookback when the darklands unlocks so Skaven start on 3 fronts as the game develops.

If you've only got the expansion and not the base game and its DLC then Skaven in Lustria will probably be the main faction for them. CA and GW are probably hoping that anyone that just buys the expansions will think "Damn this is really cool. I think I'll buy the first game and maybe DLC's if I like it"

Oh nice. Thanks anon.
The leaked ingame map only shows the central and right side for the expansion ;/
I guess things could change in development and they add the full continent or extend it slightly at the least maybe using Empire's "theatre" system so the CPU and GPU will do each theatre's end turn seperately rather than all at once in order to keep frames consistent.
>>
>>160251686
Do we know the pricing of the Old World faction or will the expansion come with a discount on it? I doubt people will throw 100 big ones down for a total war game. Expansion two will bring a max 4 factions presumably, HE, DE, Skaven and Lizardmen. Skaven are gonna have to be able to occupy at least lizard structures AND dwarf holds in the Old World.
>>
>>160251939

>Expansion two will bring a max 4 factions presumably

Did you forget that this is exactly what the base game was?
What makes you think they won't do that again since they got away with it the first time?

I really, really hope the Expansion brings fully fleshed naval combat, otherwise it's going to really dissapointing.
>>
>>160251939
Dwarf, Greenskins, Lizardmen and any human factions. I get the feeling when Skaven are released they'll conquer the whole world in 100 turns if not eradicated immediately.

I hope to see that along with a Vampire Pirate subfaction roaming Lustrias coast.

Hey guys! Raidous here, I'm preparing ideas for the Wood Elves lineup and I heard you guys know what's what, so I came here for suggestions!
One idea I already have that I know you guys will love is Royal Waywatcher Veterans. I got the idea when I realised that the Wood Elves wouldn't really have many heavy infantry so I thought I'd fill the gap. Basically they're Wood Elves armed with the finest Dwarven Runesmithed gromril swords and shields and clad in the finest Nuln engineered armor from the Empire, all fairly traded for and to help strengthen the bond of man, elf and dwarf against the forces of chaos!

What about you guys? Got any other awesome ideas?

I'm concerned that means the DLC was delayed a week or so OR what they are shipping out is something nature related?

Did they ever fix Rome 2 so that the major factions stood their ground and didn't get shit on by the "literally who" factions?

It's putting me off playing it. Want to do a barbar campaign, but it'll be extremely disappointing if the Etruscans extinct Rome like I remember them doing last time I played (prior to emperor edition).

Kind of hoping for a Rome 1 tier Rome, where they were guaranteed to be getting shit done.

Is 40k and warhammer in the same universe? Is the empire the only faction to make it to space?
>>
>>160258246
Huh, maybe the reason Welfs have been taking so long is because the DLC team has had to wait for the Expansion Pack team to make a final design on Elfs so they all look similar and they could design high elf relics for welfs and bretonnia.
>>
>>160265534
In older fluff you could have argued that this is the case, with Sigmar being one of the "lost" 40K Primarchs. Makes sense when you consider that the Chaos pantheon and various daemons are identical across both settings. GW have been trying to distance themselves from this theory for decades, though, most likely once they realized one setting was considerably more successful than the other.

Fantasy is set on a world in 40k that has been surrounded by warpstorms for thousands of years, which is why Khorne gives out 40k goodies to followers, and technological devices could be found underground. This is also why both settings share the Old Ones. The creatures found in fantasy used to be able to be found in 40k ie. Vampires and dwarfs, but 40k has tried to seperate themselves in recent years (with the
exception of Draigo in the end times).

New to franchise here, picking up lore.

So I get the map is vaguely 17th century Europe, bretonnia is France, estalia is Spain, tilea is Portugal, border princes is italy/east Rome, empire is holy roman empire / German states, middle land is the Dutch, kislev is Russia with various Eastern European mini russias in between, northern viking things are like Scandinavia and chaos sort of comes from the north pole like santa on meth, orcs are Arabs and dwarves are like ottomans, vampires are Hungarian

Where's Britain? Is that in the lore? Seems odd a setting like this doesn't have an England posh/uptight race.

Kislev is all of Eastern Europe. The main thematic influences come from Poland, Lithuania, and the various nomadic steppe peoples that have invaded Europe historically.

Chaos Warriors are drawn from three tribes; the Hung, the Kurgan, and the Norse. Norse are obviously Vikings, the Hung are Huns, and the Kurgan are Mongols.

Orcs are, as racist as it seems, Sub-Saharan Africans.

Orcs are their own thing senpai. There are Sub-Saharan Africans in the setting, the pygmy tribes that live in the jungles of the Southlands.
>>
>>160266703

Orcs are not niggers, what the fuck.
>>
>>160266761

Exactly, they're Arabs.
>>
>>160266786
I mean geographically. They're said to have originated in what we would understand to be Africa. Also, High Elves have a fortress on the very southern tip of the continent, a bastion of good amongst a land of savagery.
>>
>>160266703
>Orcs are, as racist as it seems, Sub-Saharan Africans.
Fuck off, /pol/
>>
>>160266915
In the setting they literally come from the Southlands, below Araby. How is that racist? What the fuck?

>>160266703
>Skarsnik is just a little nigger who's better at thieving than other niggers
>>
>>160266990
>>160266886

They're not niggers and not arabs, they're English football hooligans hence the cockney accent.
>>
>>160266283
Actually, Tilea is Rome/Greece, Kislev is Easter Europe in general and Bretonnia is medieval France/Arthurian England, while the Border Princes are a mess of all of them.

Keep in mind GW mixed various nations to give flavor to the various factions on Fantasy.

Also, orcs are not arabs, Arabs, japs, chinks and Indians have their own representation on Araby, Nippon, Cathay and Ind respectively.

Also, Albion is Celtic Britain.

Oh, and Orcs are definitely modelled after the Turks to the extent that they're not the British underclass and Tolkien borrowings.

Orcs are Turkish by their very conception in Tolkien's mind, as Tolkien based the speech of his bad guys off Arabic, Persian, Turkish and Slavic examples, while the good guys spoke tongues more reminiscent of the patterns of Germanic, Celtic and Finnish. Dude was a closeted /pol/tard, there's no need to blame GW for following his example in writing fluff for their wacky stoner wargame.

I don't see how any of that matters. There was far more coverage for K&W than there was for CotB, despite the extra week.

They have had a very inconsistent marketing schedule for their dlc. Partly from leaks forcing their hand and partly from them experimenting to find what works best. I don't think the Beastmen were necessarily the best example because of this.

Nah, the names for Orcs in WH try to sound as tolkienesque as possible (Morglum, Gorfang, Azhag). But GW, who lived and worked in a less culturally prejudiced time than Tolkien's, put a spin on Tolkien's orientalism by progressively giving some of these easterner types a neutral if not wholly good moral orientation, being Kangz and Ogres.

Wood Elves exist in Athel Loren. Check the OP pic for this thread as it currently appears ingame. That's the forest the Wood Elves live in.

They tend to keep to themselves for the most part and are locked in what is known as "The Secret War" against the Beastmen. They aren't good but they aren't evil either. They just don't like intruders.

Pic related is the map of Athel Loren.
>>
>>160270786
they do venture out/intervene if it seems that the direction the world is taking will affect their forest
if it were to end because archaon wanted to ruin everything, for example, they would help stop him
and they are a force to be reckoned with
>>
>>160270273
They simply haven't been implemented yet. Elves are one of the "major" factions, split in to three distinct entities. High Elves can be thought of as good, Wood Elves as neutral, and Dark Elves as evil.

>>160270273
Elves mostly keep themselves to themselves

High Elves and Dark Elves are mostly fighting each other, though the former have raiding parties sailing all over the globe and the latter will occasionally show up in the old world to slap down chaos.

WE almost never leave their wood, except to occasionally help out Bretonnia or hunt for Morghur.

Has there been any news on Ancient Empires/Medieval 1212 full release yet?

I remember hearing they both released a custom game version but have heard nothing about the campaign since.

Some decided to stay on the mainland(Old World), went native, bound their souls to the forest of Athel Loren, became Asrai (Wood Elves), others decided to split after starting a civil war, eventually founding a new Elven authoritarian kingdom, becoming Druchii (Dark Elves).

Almost everyone else stuck to their ways and became what is known as Asur (High Elves).

The Human lands of the Old World once had Elven cities before the War of the Beard in which the Dwarfs fought against the Elves and forced the High Elves to leave the Old World.
That's why ingame you can still see high elf ruined statues and buildings on battle maps,quest maps and siege maps. The only elves left in the Old World are the Asrai.

Pic related is where the Elves originally come from and where the High Elves still live. It lies between the Old World and New World and is surrounded by powerful magics.

Somehow playing Attila just feels awful. I spent fucking ages inthe campaignmap managing my countless provinces, about every turn some army, agent etc. levels up and I ahve to skill them the same path I always take, checking my family tree so nobody starts a rebellion, transporting units from end of the map to the next. I never got to play any battl either, since Either I am at a strong advantage or the enemy sneaked through a little blindspot and attacks my 2 unit garrison with a full doomstack. The Units are also so boring. By the time I have progressed though the research tree enough to ahve interesting army the campaign is already just campaignmap management.

Help me, I love Attila Battles but the campaignmap is just absolutely killig me.

Tried playing vanilla M2 again. Got 65 turns in to a Portugal campaign before I snapped trying to get a unit of javelins to fire up on to a wall. Nostalgia really did an amazing job of hiding all of the pathing issues in that game, sieges are utterly unplayable.

Also, ranged units are dogshit. Literally worse than Attila somehow. It's crazy. A thousand crossbowmen on a wall will get maybe sixty kills before the ladders go up and they all get slaughtered.

>>
>>160285559
No quarallers and longbeards are all you need

>>160285432
Range Units in Attila are very potent. The only problem is 80% miss and 20% hit the same men multiple times. My skirmishers throw a whole salvo into the behind of the enemy units and 10 guys in the back die, every single one of them having 10 spears in them. Also friendly fire ruins that game.

Hammerers are extremely potent anti-armor units, but also very fragile. They will just fall apart in any extended combat and should be used to hit the scariest enemy infantry in the flanks. And Ionbreakers are extremely potent defensive units that can form a line and hold it until the battle ends. You're supposed to use your ranged units, artillery, and aircraft to pound the shit out of your opponent as they flail uselessly against the iron wall.

Gyrocopters are utterly invaluable in a Dwarfen army, as they're your only mobile option. You really, really need to be able to hunt down characters and war machines.

My late game army comp is something like this.

>lord of choice, doesn't matter
>thane to go character hunting
>engineer to buff ranged units and artillery
>2x hammerers as the point of the spear, hitting the toughest enemy infantry in the flanks
>6x ironbreakers to form the shield wall and tie up the bulk of the enemy line
>2x irondrakes to hose down the main battle line
>4x trollhammers to hunt flying creatures and pour additional firepower in to the fight (used these guys for the first time this campaign and they are FUCKING GREAT)
>1x gyrobomber, to hunt war machines and do bomb shenanigans
>2x artillery of choice depending on what you're likely to face; grudge throwers and cannons for long ranged enemies, organ guns as a jack of all trades, and flame cannons for vampire counts

YMMV, but i've been having a lot of fun and a lot of success with this setup.

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.

Playing Rome for the first time, am I fucking up for attacking Carthage now? I got a mission to attack Caralis for senate appointments (I got nothing), and then decided to steam to Carthage for fun. I took it, and now I want to take Thapsus, since it seems weakly guarded, but I'm worried if this is overextending myself and for how long the Numidians will be friendly. Do I need to destroy the buildings with (Carthaginian) next to them or does that not do anything?

Also, what should my strategy be for army building, since it uses population now? I guess I am fighting Gauls next so I don't know what units are best against them or how big my armies should be. I assume it's like R2 and they're just big stacks of shitty units.

Gaul is fucking hobo-land, everything except the coast is dirt poor. You did good by cucking the Scipii out of their natural expansion. Go ahead and take the rest of north Africa and go on to Spain.

Army comp is pretty easy; pretty much recruit the heaviest infantry you have, but Hastati aren't really bad. Then turn your auto-javelins on and kill everything to death in a melee. Archers and Cav may be needed for enemy archers and cav.

Playing multiple Chaos campaigns I've determined that the reason people tend to like Beastmen better has to do primarily with the fact that Beastmen start with two hordes

Horde growth tends to be slow, and Beastmen overall have more options to increase horde growth (raze and defile is better than chaos' raze in terms of growth, dark moon gives growth, technologies give growth). Starting with two hordes simply gives you an advantage in terms of growth because the second horde will be growing the same as the first horde, allowing a third horde to be recruited overall more quickly. Additionally having a second horde early allows you to develop your hordes more easily.

I've found as Chaos you can get multiple hordes a lot quicker and have overall better horde development by spending your starting horde population points on immediately getting a second horde in the first turn and splitting your starting army. This allows you to develop more quickly.

Immediately of course the problems with this become obvious- the retarded "infighting" mechanic discourages having your hordes nearby each other.

>>
>>160302005
There are other problems with the Chaos campaign of course which are well known. In particular while I enjoy playing as Chaos because they have cool units and cool legendary lords the problem is unlike the Beastmen with their Dark Moon, Dwarfs and Grudges, Empire and offices is that Chaos' special mechanic is supposed to be "Awakening the tribes". The problem as everyone has noted is that the tribes all immediately go to war with each other- CA wasn't smart enough to put in a mechanic to prevent that. There is almost no point in Awakening except to get Sigvald. Even subjugation doesn't help because your subjects can just break vassaldom whenever they feel like it. Overall playing as Chaos you have to do way too much yourself and it feels like a shitty mod or a beta version of the Beastmen rather than an actual campaign. CA shouldn't have made them day 1 DLC- Chaos clearly needed more time and testing.

Also the fact that Chaos ruins don't give corruption like Beastmen ruins is retarded. And the fact that the AI tries to hunt you down is also retarded- the Beastmen have an easier time of this since they can just run and hide.

Also the campaign is made unique but tedious with that stupid bird appearing.

>>160302210

I sort of like that aspect.
Beastmen are just Beastmen, nobody takes them that seriously.
Chaos, you're playing as Archie Everchosen, the Big Bad coming to town to slap Karl's arse and pinch Thorgrim's rosy cheeks, so it makes sense that the AI would go on crusades to stop you in your tracks.
>>
>>160302081
I
>>
>>160302443

I found the best thing to do when playing Chaos is to leave all the tribes alone completely, even the ones which are at war with you to begin with.

They eventually want peace with you after you become a bit stronger, Vargs/Skaeling usually kill everyone else in Norsca so they take it over completely. They then end up migrating south anyway with their own stacks and start attacking everything in the Empire on their own.

As long as you don't tie yourself to the other Norscan factions via treaties, you should still have good relations with them because they love you slapping your big spiky chaos-cock all over the empire states.

I wish that you could get all the tribes united like the AI Chaos gets, maybe there is a mod for it but I haven't really look too much into it so meh.

The problem is that in order to get them to be your friends you kind of have to leave them alone, otherwise they annoy you when you're trying to burn the empire to the ground

It just doesn't feel really "everchoseny"

It feels less like you're the lord of the end times and more like you're just another horde burning stuff down

Also the lack of chaos corruption from the chaos ruins is a major downer for me because it doesn't feel like the world is ending when everything is green and pretty

So much actual atmosphere and working mechanics are missing from the Chaos DLC which is a shame because I really like their units

Chaos really should have a way to awaken tribes or cults from regions with 30+ corruption or something. That would make the snowball feel more weighty and interesting. Attrition is just not enough of a boon/burden to warrant spending resources on heroes all the time etc.

Abhorash never got any Tabletop rules or a model, though we do have pic related as an illustration of him.

I suppose he was meant to fulfill the overpowered mythical founder role, so he never got an official model. And the fluff with him was kind of minimal, but I recall details that he was pretty friendly with the Bretonnians. Doing stuff to help them due to a debt he owed to Giles one time.

I think he would be a Legendary Hero, but I can also see him leading his own faction as a Legendary Lord to have as a different sort of ally while playing as the Brets. Would probably be one of the strongest combat characters in the entire game though.

Wood elves soon?

Dudes, I'm new to the game and got shogun II. That said, the game literally tells me the game is cracked and says it may crash. Not to my surprise, I'm crashing a lot in the middle of the battles and the campaign maps. I can't play even 30 minutes.

Is there anything I can do? Also, which is the best game on roman period? I guess I'm going to get attila if I can't make shogun II work.

rome 2 is the height of romes conquest, and attila is around the fall of rome, choose your poison.

Best roman period is Rome 1 with Europa Barbarorum.

Anyone got experience with "Guaranteed Major Faction Empires" mod for Rome 2?

Recommend it or no? Supposedly it does it in ways other than "infinite money for Rome".

What would you say is the population threshold for occupying a city vs. enslaving in Rome 1?

Because they're fucking Vampires. The game doesn't do a very good job of representing just how retardedly strong they are. Blood Knights are the absolute best of the best most elite warrior lodges given the gift of vampirism on top of their already considerable prowess.
