Why the fuck is there no penalty for moving thru someones settlements or provinces?

Atleast a province... if a province is fully owned by a non-ally faction, you should either move slower when walking thru it, take attrition, or have a more tired army. Fucking something.

Sick of people just running circles around my land with no consequences until i can maybe catch them.

Better yet, if you're on a provinces land, the closest settlements garrison should be able to engage you.

This statement alone caused a breakthrough in Greenskin thought.

Led by this "brutally cunning" rhetoric, the Greenskins brought their inferiority complex to new heights.

They were now united as one.

The greenskins were all finally living in one country.

Undivided in their quest for relevance, they decided to call their faction...

The unified greenskin "horde"
>>
>>160731213
Desperate to prove themselves to the Old World, the Greenskins frantically searched for a reason to wage a war they could win.

The death of some irrelevant night goblin war boss in some backwater karak with a vague connection to the Greenskin "warboss" was all they needed to start a war.

>mfw playing wh40k tw after my last time playing a tw game was medieval 2: total war and rome: total war

jesus christ the map and ui is atrocious and unintuitive. the battle gameplay is still basic as hell with no new commands or formations, and everyone stays in their regiment. i was expecting orcs and zombies to sort of be in very loose regiments but they're all in line and file. it looks ridiculous.

Ive never played them in Grand Campaign, but the mini-campaign is just running around with your whole army and brayherds, sacking 1 settlement at a time with extreme ease, until the map is cleared.

Atleast in the GC you would be able to max out your buildings and tech.

Here's a tip, newfriend.

Usually, for Total War games, the easiest faction is the one in the title. Let me give you some examples.

Rome 1 & 2: Rome
Medieval 2: Medieval factions, not arab ones
Empire: The Holy Roman Empire
Shogun: The Shogun Faction
Napoleon: France
Attila: The Black Huns

Why cant we just recruit units at settlements? Feels autistic to need to make a lord first.
Just make it so the army cant leave the settlement without a lord, but can still sit there and protect it.

Make em more expensive to make without a lord too idc, just take out the autistic step of needing a lord. Especially if u plan to fire all those bitches in a couple turns.
>>
>>160735178
Just calls for different ambush tactics. Being on a road surrounded by woods and fired on by an enemy that doesn't reveal their position sounds really irritating, and so does skirmishes retreating away from you in both directions.
>>
>>160735328
At least you can retrain mercs in EB 2 instead of having to disband them outright.

While we're on what, the 10th year of development?
EB 2 is graphically a lot better and they've ported over the Rome 1 animations so people move a bit faster than the typical M2 unit.

Instead of the barebones release from 2 years ago it's pretty fleshed out and everyone has a roster. Now it's just a manner of adding units and more units.

Give it a try if you got it, you may enjoy it, but it's objectively bad when compared to the GC, it has some value as "Beastmen tutorial"

It is now Official. Athel Loren is radiant in its resplendence. Delicate young boys cavort for the delight of their mistresses, and the luminescence of sprites and pixies flicker through the enchanted wood. The Sisters of Twilight languorously uncurl from their embrace; panpipes flute a tune of merriment throughout the halls of the summerstrand. The diverting indignities of gorposting and Deep-Thinking Goblins are a receding memory, a windblown fragment of the season past. All Asrai make ready for frolic and improductivity; indolence is the watchword, and none can be found but are feverishly, zealously committed to inactivity.

From the Oak of Ages, the Eternal Queen watches and is warmed by the celebrations of her people. In such a festive air, Orion's rebirth cannot but be imminent; Ariel's handmaidens ceaselessly weave flowers into her hair, presenting an endless procession of styles and and aspects by which their beloved monarch might greet her consort. Those that retain a sense of time and worldly events look to his arrival; Naieth's divinations serve only to confirm what the jubilant atmosphere of the forest makes evident.

Wood Elves Confirmed.

What he had were a couple of sweet little moments where he is repeatedly offered recruitment by the most powerful beings in existence only to uniquely in the setting refuse to be somebody's wageslave.

Has anyone here "platinum'd" all achievements in any total war game?

I'm playing Napoopan darthmod right now and I was checking the achievement list. I have the most achievements of all tw games on NTW at 31/70 and for the life of me I have no idea how I would make all majors like me or how i'd get gold on all historic battles.

So someone get me some info on this: are the Wood elves canonically "good" guys, "neutral" or "evil"? As in, what's their deal? I know in Vermintide a wood elf girl is helping the party so I assume they're more inclined to be on the good side of things, but where do they stand in the lore? Are they friendly to the empire? Hostile to Brettonia? Who's their main enemies/friends?

Or is it like starcraft where they have excuses to be at war with everyone and ally with everyone?

>>160744780
Then I'm glad to know you are agreeing with me my fellow.

>>160744504
Wood Elves are the apotheosis of the NEET ideal and live in a post-labour society. Because of this, the hand of every resentful wageslave is raised against them. They are isolationists, but will fight anyone who seeks to take away their comfiness.

That's not to say they are without allies, though; the Wood Elves are aided in their struggle by "Good Boy" Bretonnia, who subsidizes their NEET lifestyle in exchange for Grail points.
>>
>>160744775
As far as the proper 'plot' of the world goes, Archaon was just questing around not bothering them. Sure the wood elves could've predicted his business and pre-empted him, but they're wasted hippies and their forest is some whacky time machine to begin with, so they were probably too lazy to do so.
The only time Archaon comes to directly threaten them is when he comes to end the entire world, and they do do shit at that point.

>>160744827
Any time my dude.
>>
>>160744775
In End Times the wood elves do nothing and then take a portal to AoS along with whats left of Bretonnia. So no, they don't think it's worth helping out.
>>
>>160744775
>Yet, little by little, the Wood Elves have come to realise that the fate of other realms is theirs also. There are rumblings of a doom that will see the world torn asunder, and the sanctity of Athel Loren forever lost. Such is a fate fit to shake even the Wood Elves from their millennia of isolation. Guided by prophecy and the wisdom of Ariel, their immortal Mage Queen, the Wood Elves seek to prevent the oncoming disaster from claiming their forest home. Now, their hosts march with a purpose not seen for millennia. They know Athel Loren will not survive the coming disaster unscathed, and if the price of saving their beloved home is the preservation of other realms, then so be it.

From the armybook, the Wood Elves got dragged kicking and screaming out of their woods to actively oppose Chaos, even if the "price" they have to pay is accidentally helping other people by proxy.

The larger, grey Skaven's mouth had fallen open, its long tongue lolling out over its broken tombstone teeth. Thick beads of saliva dripped from the thing's maw. One splattered against her cheek, sending a loathsome shudder running down her spine. Elitha had studied history, and she knew that, again and again, the downfall of her people had been pride. It was pride that had caused the Sundering and pride that had caused the War of the Beard. The presence of the Skaven alone made her bare skin crawl, but she also knew that her life was worth a hundred thousand of theirs. The idea of submitting to their desires pushed bile to the tip of her throat, but if it would ensure her survival...

Reminder:

Waterfall: Paid Wood elf campaign pack and confirmed as the last campaign pack for the base game.

Waterfall2: Free DLC supplemental. Currently includes 2 lores(Life and Shadow), 2 empire wizards(Jade and Grey) with the possibility of a Morghur LL for Beastmen maybe even a unit or 2 to go with him.

Crumpets: Free Bretonnia race pack(Updated over the weekend for the first time in 3 months)

Cascade: Possible last race pack DLC for the Tomb Kings and map extension south to bridge the content drought between base game and the new world expansion coming later next year. (Cascade was added the day before the wood elf official reveal). T

This(Cascade) would make sense as a campaign pack is a big deal as it requires teams to work on a mini campaign of 30-50 regions(Athel Loren confirmed 12 eternal realms that look as they do in lore) and grand campaign whereas this potential race pack would have the full DLC team working on grand campaign map extension,in this case. Southwards.

The rough outlined datamined map is now officially outdated with the announcement that the expansions will have more work done on them thanks to the success of the first game and its DLC including 4 base races and a landmass similar in size to the current Old World.

This means it is quite likely the New World will be even larger and the current locked ingame maps for the east and north(of the old world) could expand into the mountains of mourn and chaos wastes with the second expansion.Land of the Dead and Araby are fine as they are desu.
I think its safe to say the Empire theatre system will make a reappearance in order to ensure stable framerates for such a large game world with end turns going theatre by theatre rather than all at once.

Nice map. Who made it? Well done.
However that new world map is really rough and clearly not to scale and I wouldn't be surprised if GW allowed CA to add their own non lore settlements to fill it out. That few settlements for 4 races isn't going to work. Expect a similar amount of settlements as the base game.
The official map east and south shows promise.

Add 3-6 more in the Darklands such as Tower of Nagash and the same for the south such as Temple of Skulls in the Cursed Jungle(Lizardmen subfaction for sure). I would say its pretty spot on for how the terrain will look.
Looking at Albion and the fact the datamined map shown it colored. Its current ingame size could easily be a 2 region province or maybe a 1 region province for huge campaign bonuses to the race that owns it.

I think that's more because the DE writers have a coldsteel tier obsession with them (can't have no dirty barbarians shitting all over your badass spiky highborn eldar), while Beastmen and Greenskin writers prefer to focus on the old world. So we don't really get to hear a lot about the Naggarothi greenskins and beastmen.

Assume that Dark Elves are constantly attacked by greenskins and beastmen.

Only time beastmen or greenskins are mentioned in Naggaroth is for when they are being hunted for sport by Dark Riders/Cold One Knights.

The chaos threat is almost always norse tribe incursions and occasional daemons.

I can hear the anvils,volcanic eruptions,rat noises,goblin laughs,lizard screeches and ogres farting already.

I'm so Autistic when playing total war in general that I've already got my Dawi max garrison(walls,gatehouses,buildings that give extra unit etc) set up along the eastern worlds edge borders and the borderlands with the Tomb Kings alongside 2 armies. One on the southern border and another on the east.
>>
>>160746772
>>160746702
The Dark Elves live in big metropolises that are heavily walled and garrisoned and don't really have a rural population compared to other races, except for the shades who are weirdos

Being all clustered up into protected hives of scum and villainy makes the beastmemes irrelevant, while intrigue and schemes usually keep the warriors of chaos to the north directed elsewhere.

Still, the Darkblade novels make it clear that the Chaos Wastes are a big deal and the primary security threat to the realm. (The realm is more focused on taking over Ulthuan because they are Super Jacobites but still)

Hes nice and just wants to play and have fun.

Hes definitely well above the majority in terms of skill, but he gets stuck in his ways easily and doesn't adapt well, so he plays similar builds over and over and doesnt like using or experimenting much even if it would be in his best interest, like artillery which he just hates. You would never see him just take a volleygun to test them for example, and if he did he would likely fail then blame the unit rather than his improper strategy.

And his micro is pretty bad which he admits.

The only campaign ive yet to start to see the mechanics, are Vampires, but HOLY SHIT.

Orcs are by far the best campaign race right?
Their Waagh army mechanic is the best race mechanic by far. They get the underway which is immensely useful, and their fucking encamp stance also buffs them, and doubles as raid.

oh and it seems like they get a larger pool of lords to recuit too. So easier fishing for good lords.

Oh and they leave debuffing piles of shit in your settlements when they raid you.

Oh and theyre green :)

No, soulless horde faction is a staple fantasy trope. Skaven go beyond that. Like the Chinese, they are a perverse mockery of man, retaining none of his virtues and expounding on his vices.

The Skaven/Chinaman lacks the courage, integrity, valor and nobility that humans can aspire to. They have an overdeveloped take on human deception, ambition, and cowardice. The squalor of Skaven/Chinese warrens is nightmarish, and they seek to prevail against their betters through treachery.

It is not for nothing that Skaven live under humanity- it is a play on the old children's belief that if you dig long enough it'll take you to China. The Yellow Peril is real in warhammer fantasy, and lies chittering under the realms of men.

Chaos is a joke in the main campaign. You're lucky if they even get past kislev.

3. Chaos Invasion - Spawn 10 Chaos Stacks (turn 90)

>Chaos never stops coming

It's not wrong thematically but I fucking hate that idea., especially since if they only spawned two stacks at a time all it would do is force you to keep one or two stacks of your own on the spawn point for the rest of the campaign, you would never lose to it, it would just be fucking annoying.

>>160752000
well the tagline for the event is 'can anyone stop archaon' so presumably it can be stopped. A real End Times mechanic won't really work until we've got the big players liek daemons, skaven and Nagash.
>>
>>160751903

At least russians pretend to be humans
>>
>>160751848
It's not that they're hard in the conventional sense. You crush their armies easily. It's that the Norscans home in on your undefended provinces like a magnet
>>
>>160752000

Checked.

But I do understand it, I just dont think it's a very fun gameplay mechanic that forces you to lose in the end.
>>
>>160752049
Honestly if you ask, then i find it silly that Chaos stacks all spawn at the same place, and the Chaos Wastes is so small.

On top of that, not being able to stack your hordes together is a HUGE disadvantage for chaos, and is the worst thing ever thought up for a gime like total war.

I would settle for it being a game mode for Grand Campaign.

The current "End Times" just feels like a joke, and i'm not joking when i say chaos never beats kislev, they literally never do.

I sit there playing Emperor, having united all of the Empire, now waiting for the REAL challenge, that was supposed to be chaos, only to learn that the Everchosen was fucked to death by Kislev 20 turns ago.

Thats Abysmal design. I wanted to withstand an invasion. It never even came.
>>
>>160752313
>i'm not joking when i say chaos never beats kislev, they literally never do.

They've beaten them pretty soundly on my 2 playthroughs.

Of course, those were as Dwarfs and Greenskins, so it might just be that I didn't really interfere with them until they reached the Border Princes.
>>
>>160752118
I only had this issue playing empire, and it's easily solved by making obligatory walls in all of your villages. It will not only deter them from running around razing shit whilst you try to catch them, but will also protect your villages vs any army smaller than a full stack.
>>
>>160752313

>i'm not joking when i say chaos never beats kislev, they literally never do.

In every campaign except my Vampire campaign they have completely razed Kislev and the two surrounding provinces

And the only reason they didn't take Kislev in my Vampires campaign was that I had already taken it and was waiting with 5 stacks in Praag
>>
>>160752419
Yes I walled every settlement as well. But it's bullshit that that is a requirement.

Vampires get a similar bit of fun as well.
>>
>>160752313

I've had plenty of chaos invasions wipe out Kislev. The only times they have not been a threat is when I play as dwarfs/orcs. Even as Belegar and skarsnik they reached me with respectable stacks.

I think the issue is that they dont really propperly restack their armies after some battles. And then you just have Sigvald run around with 8 units and Kholek has like 4 chosen champions in his 12 stack army.

>CA basically fucked up
Funny because regional occupation is one of the best things in TWW but it's typical for /twg/ that a potentially strong enemy in the late game is a 'fucked up game mechanic'
>>
>>160752621
It means you can't conquer Dwarven Holds or Norse settlements. I don't know why they wouldn't let you conquer Norse settlements but the Dwarf Holds are pretty self explanatory. Also it breaks the game balance on an already fairly easy game and only shitters would ever consider installing >>160752680 this mod

People really need to try and raze more settlements.

It's a special kind of satisfaction i get when i take a massive shit on a densely populated city.

>>
>>160753121

>>160752973
They usually destroy Kislev and then take the mountain route. Maybe they've spared one settlement before going east some time but Kislev has never been able to recover.
>>
>>160752930
>Doesn't this ruin the game?
It does not
>What's the point of going to war with other factions except the ones you can conquer then?
They can still raise armies and they can still sack/raze your settlements. In fact the main Dwarf faction almost always become the end boss of the campaign.

If there's a specific period you really like it does add to the enjoyment, so if you really like the Roman period then R2 is more viable, personally I rate Napoleon higher than lot's of others because of this.

There is nothing wrong with it on its own, but the only reason you are encouraged to forge your own narrative is because GW doesn't have to do anything then. It's a lack of good narrative from GWs part.

Also I don't get why you shoot down people going "muh setting". The setting is pretty important in the long run 2bh.

Also a lot of people prefer fantasy landsknechts over notspace marine models.

Age of Sigmar is fundamentally flawed as a setting, infinite landmasses get boring extremely fast, capeshit means that "Your dudes" will always be outshined by the not-Space-Marine eternal god incarnate every faction has and the Chaos wanking has only gotten worse (and a new cancer spawned from Sigmar wanking)

The models are great quality, and decent barring some exceptions, and I understand how some people find the tabletop attractive, but the setting is unsalvageable, and without a setting, the game is bound to die

For a better reference, compare AoS with early WHFB

>>160753929

You could "Forge your own narrative" in WHFB too, that's why the fucking setting inspired an RPG that lasted several decades and 3 editions.

AoS is just barren, unrelatable shit, the fact that GW is unwilling to flesh anything out properly just means that nothing is worth caring about and thus you wouldn't WANT to forge your own narrative anyway.

While the visual depictions of GW elves have always been very inconsistent, normal elves are never described as having all-black eyes in the lore.

As a matter of fact, Slaaneshi elves are specifically stated to have their pupils expand until their eyes are all black.

That pretty much implies that this is not the default state for elves.
>>
Perhaps the most unique office is The Herald of The Hunt. When a Lord becomes The Herald, he gets reduced upkeep and recruitment costs for Wild Riders (stag-riding melee cavalry) and a mighty 20% improvement to his army movement range. Periodically during your campaign, a Wild Hunt will be announced; in the lore of the Wood Elves, this is a cathartic, cyclical event where the Asrai rampage across the landscape, hunting down their enemies. When the Wild Hunt event occurs, your appointed Herald receives a meaty stack of buffs for a set number of turns: his charge bonus is improved, while his army gets a further large bonus to its campaign movement range. Alongside reduced campaign upkeep costs and improvements to his army’s melee damage and morale stats, The Herald also reaps a significant cash bonus for razing settlements.

Nah, his original tragedy was getting half his city killed because he was dicking around killing DEs when he should have been defending his home.

Him being blinded was just a really weird addition to his story in the 5th ed DE armybook.

>My current favourite army build is almost pure ranged. I have a dead-eye bow-wielding, Eagle-riding Glade Lord (Thalandor Doomstar, no less), who buffs all the Glade Guard and Waywatchers in his army for better ammo, reload time, damage etc. I also have a Waystalker (Dodan) in the army. He's basically The Jackal.

First contact with the beastmen for the men of the Empire. Doom herds have poured out of the desolate north to herald the arrival of the second chaos incursion, and the Emperor has summoned the Elector Counts to meet them on the field of battle.

The plan is to draw the Beastmen over the ridgeline, where artillery will begin pounding their heaviest troops and goad them into a charge. The infantry will move up into the gap between this tiny village and a giant boulder, while the Reiksguard knights wait in reserve to guard the flanks.

The main force is approaching and the intent appears to be to wrap around the village and strike hard at our left flank with at least 2 units of bestigors, their strongest and most heavily armored line troops. 4th Helmgart and 3rd Grunburg are repositioned to defend the flank, while the Reiksguard wait nervously for the call to charge. The other greatswords move up to join the main line, regular troops won't be enough to hold back this charge.

The shaman realizes our lines are too thick for the minotaurs to shatter, as he watches dozens of them brought low by arrows and executed in a furious blade frenzy.The gors focus their frontal assault onto the village, intent on breaking through the weakened side of our line. The men of the empire will not break while their leader fights beside them. A second flanking force including some minotaurs breaks off to threaten the right flank, preventing the knights from riding out to deal with the cygor or charging the enemy rear.

The greatswords guarding the left flank are tied down by gors and ungors sent in advance of the elite assault force of bestigors, and two reiksguard units on that flank get to look forward to the unsavory task of charging heavy infantry unassisted in order to buy time for the archers and artillery. The minotaurs tasked with going around the giant boulder, however, have become distracted by the fighting and their lust for blood, and may have created a gap that the knights of the right flank can exploit. Meanwhile the empire artillery has repositioned and is delivering effective fire onto the battle line and at the Cygor. In the center, a pitched battle is finally in full swing, 3 units of minotaurs were shattered and driven off before most of the gors could join battle.

The gors trailing their minotaurs on the right flank are at a loss, but rather then continue their mission without heavy support, they simply join their minotaurs and attack the right side of the line. 1st Middenheim Greatswords are free to move to the left flank and fend of the last flanking bestigor unit, while the Reiksguard as a whole receive their orders and ride out to do that which they live and breathe to do. The cannons provide suppressing fire on the Cygor, smashing it over and over and preventing it from lobbing rocks at Alberich as he flies in to slay the summoned beast. The bray-shaman remains embedded within a unit of gors, but the Reiksguard will make short work of them.

CA is probably happy about the free promotion.
The BBC is probably happy to use TW games since it means they don't have to program anything themselves and TW games look much better than anything they could create on their own for the show.

It's a win-win for both desu.

The bray-shaman sees the unit of Reiksguard preparing to charge his already shell-shocked line, and makes a desperate play to keep his herd fighting. The Reiksguard, amused and a little disappointed at having their charge intercepted, lower lances and prepare to skewer this comically large boar.

With both commanders away from the front lines, both the beastmen gors and the men of the Empire are reaching their breaking point and beginning to falter. The Reiksguard of the left flank finally make a breakthrough and deliver their charge, trampling and terrifying the gors.

You don't need to know the number of the day before you know which month it is

Knowing it is the 30th first is completely irrelevant because the important part is the "30th of X month"

Hence month- the most important part- goes first

Putting the smallest first is just plebbish autism of "budd it mages sense cuz it is small/medium/large u get it". We get it, but your reasoning is still fucking stupid.

The knights aren't content to fold one flank. Having routed the enemy right, they continue their furious charge all the way down the enemy line, joined by yet more bloodthirsty knights eager for glory. Several minotaurs fight their way out of the mess, but the gors are trapped. The last thing every one of them hears are their own terrified brays and screams echoing the chorus all around.

Alberich slays the Cygor with the help of continuous, accurate fire from the 1st Altdorf Cannons, and the bray-shaman escapes on his chariot, terrified more that he has failed the dark gods than he is of the uncloven enemy.

I didn't get beastmen and I probably won't get king and the warlord for a while, but it looks as though the quality of the DLC is going up, which makes me look forward to how the other factions are going to be implemented.

You're right, there have been many occassions when I have asked people the date and they've replied "It's April th.." and I've cut them off because the month is the most important part of the date and I'm a busy man.

Obviously most NORMAL people always know what day it is, but who the fuck can keep track of what month they're in amirite?
