It even transfers over to Medieval for me. The faction I have the overwhelming majority of playtime in any medieval game that allows it is always Byzantium. Even with AoC I did a brief run with Charlemagne and the Emirate of Cordoba and then played modded Theme of Sicily for the rest of it.

>>160938395
You're embrassing the 2d path, my friend

>>160938006
FotS is a combination. Samurai actually remain viable until late game.

I only phase them out when they AI starts getting high tier cannons and high tier line infantry that can start putting up a resistance in melee.

You can do really quite well if you take advantage of terrain (ie, crest the hill at the last second, using forests to mitigate damage from enemy rifle-volleys). Spear levies to take the brunt of fire, katana kachi to cut their way through the enemy lines. You can't auto-resolve if you're going traditional though. Autoresolve will fuck you hard.

Really, you can go modern or traditional. There's something extremely satisfying about gunning down a unit of samurai with a gatling gun though.

No.

Someone asked if we would get Vampire Lord (Lore of Shadows).

Same as how we'll probably get Bray Shaman (Shadows), and Chaos Sorcerer (Shadows).

We're not getting an entirely new unit, just the same old unit with a different lore. Like in TT.

Napoleon is to Empire
Fall of Samurai is to Shogun 2
Attila is to Rome 2

Is this correct?

>>160939074
Why Franz has a Marienburg banner?

>>160939457
I did the same in my Chaos campaign; recruited a new lord and killed Sigvald off by autoresolve.
I like recreating my TT armies.

Probably a Marienburg campaign that confederated Reikland whilst Karl Franz was active leading a stack.

He's supposed to be like this diabolical old guy who will screw everyone and everything in many ways, NOT LIKE SOME FIFTH WHEEL THAT CAN'T ROLL AT ALL.

The only way would be to have him get Krell that would be permanently attached to his army and who replaces any Wight King Kemmler had in his army (the Wight King becomes Krell and all the levels the former had are transferred to the latter).

I usually make some sort of cosmetic mod before starting a campaign, to match my RL miniatures, though admittedly, this one is the most elaborate to date (Dwarfs was just removing horned helmets and giving Thane shields to Longbeards).

>>160940207
Kemmler is only in this game to remind people that they haven't implemented legendary "Hero" Units into the game yet. He is there too early and likes to occasionally remind me that I don't have Krell.

One thing that always bothered me about fantasy settings in general, but more specifically in Warhammer is how common these fantastic occurences are to the average citizen.

As readers we obviously know everything going on and we have the entire map chewed up for us.
But what about the average empire citizen? Is the average life in the Old World a daily clusterfuck of monsters and war or is there a chance that the average soldier will barely see any monstrous or supernatural event?
What about the peasants? Can they live their entire lives without seeing a single beastmen?

>But what about the average empire citizen? Is the average life in the Old World a daily clusterfuck of monsters and war or is there a chance that the average soldier will barely see any monstrous or supernatural event?
If you life in one of the bigger cities, you are very unlikely to ever see anything more wonderous than that dwarf who lives down the street.

If you're a soldier you might run into beastmen or orcs, but these are usuually skirmishes with no huge epic things going down.

>What about the peasants? Can they live their entire lives without seeing a single beastmen?
Depends.
In Bretonnia, possibly.

In the Empire or Kislev not so much.
But again, 99% of all beastmen attacks are small scale raids.

>>160940780
Heavily depends where you live. Basically the average Imperial peasant might complain more about heavy taxes and the local lord being a dick than having to fight the Beastmen on regular basis.

Also the current campaign is based on the End Times so it's like the 30 years war, except much worse and in larger scale. Shitty place to live no matter what. During better times the Empire is equal to 17th century HRE in terms of violence. Unless one lives in away from the Altdorf and Nuln areas. Then it must be shitty.

Besides, not like the Empire military is 24/7 fighting against demons. Someone has to keep order and guard the cities.

Indeed.

They could've given Konrad in, but then he'd be non-stop bitchin to Mannfred about the whole betrayal thing.

Seriously, Kemmler should be Moullision and start in Bretonnia.

But then it would be a hard thing for him.

>>160941042
In Bretonnia the peasant life is even worse than in the Empire. Empire peasants have no rights at all and the best way to guarantee 3 meals a day is to join the military. In Bretonnia the local lord just drafts the peasant when he needs cannon fodder. The Empire at least provides weapons and armor for their soldiers.

The Knights are where its at.

>>160940780
Peasants even in the empire can live their entire lives without encountering anything. But the more frontier or inhospitable place you live in the more likely you'll encounter them.

Peasants are superstitious and news and rumours do propagate so while a peasant might not know anyone who has seen a goblin or a beastmen they will probably know about them and be fearful of them.

most towns or farmsteads are fortified because of the fear of such raiders.

in the big cities there are scholars (re idiots) who know of the beastmen but since they have never seen one they think they're just mis understood mutants

veteran soldiers will most likely have encountered such menaces in their patrols and will know about the smaller horrors like what an orc or an undead soldier is like. Adventurers will have definitely have seen them.

Magic isn't an everyday thing. but its not so uncommon to as be unheard of. Think of it like the modern world. You might not know anyone who owns a private jet. But you know that there are people who do.

>>160942175
Yes, bury the Orcs in human bodies until their drown.

>>160941982
The AI kept putting units in really deep formations so he gave it a minus point.

>>160941491
Not entirely true. Bretonnian lords levy peasant bowmen sure. but men at arms are "professionals" who are paid for and recruited at set times in the year. Generally if a peasant doesn't think they can afford their kids they'll have their kids run off to join the lords forces. They get paid. but most of their pay goes towards room and board as well as equipment which is provided.

The difference is the empire is more of a professional army and their soldiers are provided proper training and drill while bretonnian men at arms are just given cheap guard duties until they're herded into battle. The exception are the mounted yeomen who are the veteran peasants and are possibly the most capable soldiers if not the most capable melee combatants.

Also the knights are duty bound to join you in battle where as in the empire a professional army might be solely made up of commoners protecting their lords holdings. Albeit with cannons and handguns.

>>160942248
>there are plebs in this very thread who filter this post

Absolutely shameful

>>160940780

It depends on a vast number of factors.

Do you live in a reasonably sized and well defended town?

How close are you to a dense, large forest?

Do you live by the coast in a position that might be attractive to Norscan raiders?

Is your village on the edge of a Fimir infested bog?

That sort of shit, if you live in an ideal, decently sheltered spot you can likely live your whole life without being threatened by anything "supernatural"

Magic is something that basically everyone has SOME experience of, even if your town or village is so tiny and insignificant that a properly educated and licensed Wizard has NEVER passed through there will almost certainly be a local hedge mage or seer that can do some elementary cantrips or cook up a enchanted poultice, unlicensed use of magic is punished severely but that doesn't mean it isn't widespread.

Wood Elf life is fucking horrifying, you can let your kid out of sight EVER because you share the forest you call home with a bunch of angry, hateful spirits 1/3rd of which wants you fucking gone, the next 1/3rd only tolerates you because you serve as protection from larger threats and the last 1/3rd thinks you're pretty decent.

Some of the woodland spirits are so mad and hate elves so much that they had to seal them in a corner of the forest with a magic fence that doesn't even really work all the time.

Guys, am I the only one or do you guys also quit a game of total war after you. Own 2/3 of the map and control many armies and are very wealthy. It just feels boring, I wish they made a total war where it was so hard to even take over 1 province and to hold on to it.

>>160943284
Warhammer was always grimdark. One of the first things I read about it in the 6th ed. rulebook was how the world was doomed to be consumed by laughing Chaos Gods. Doesn't get much grimdarkier than that.

Kemmler will probably be fixed with the Bretonnia release. They'll give him his own undead subfaction near Bretonnia.

If they hadn't announced the Old World Edition I'd say it's likely, but now I'm not sure.

I think they're making a huge mistake not discounting the base game at this point. DLC are the prime mover in their sales, selling the base game for $30 would lure in more people.

That's how I remember it anyway. The world was always quite a miserable place. In the first Gotrek and Felix book, they kill a bunch of mutant kids in a wizard's lair and only realize later what they've done. Our heroes, folks! So shit was always pretty grimdark from what I remember.

They need to make a super total war game, with over a thousand provinces to capture, with thousands of ports cities to blockade or siege, they also need to add custom fortress desgins, so when you fortify a place, you get to choose what kind of Fort and how much it will cost. They also need to make turns be 1 month instead of half a year and introduce many more diplomacy options.

My dick will bee hard if they make a total war that begins at the medieval Era and ends at ww1, have the whole world ve playable, add a colonialism mechanism, and feudalism. Also be able to include culture, religion, happiness, sanitation, food, and population so that it doesn't become a clusterfuck

>>160945581

>>160948561

>>160948657
>>160948561
Conquer everything with Cataph's Kraka Drak. Then only conquer Norscan and Dwarf settlements, otherwise it is cheating.

Which Warhammer DLCs should I bother with? Don't care about beastmemes or chaos but the lord packs of all things look interesting. Should I wait for those to go on sale?

>>160948946

The King and The Warlord is the best DLC so far, The Grim and the Grave is good too though not as good.

I wouldn't bother with Chaos, their campaign is mostly just frustrating, Beastmen can be a good time and they're getting some extra content with the next DLC so maybe keep an eye out.

As for sales we don't have any kind of a clue as to when CA plans to start putting things out there, there hasn't been any sales at all yet so god knows how long it could be, whether you wanna wait is up to you.

>>160948657

I know, they're one of the reasons I bought Attila for but for now I want to play vanilla since they don't have a campaign.

>>160949683
Because razing their shitty civilization off the face of the world is satisfying after they've tried to smear poop all over your empire

Just bought Fall of the Samurai, playing Satsuma, any advice?

I only use a few gameplay mods which alter how NPC factions deal with settlements.

They sack/occupy more often than raze.
They can also occupy razed settlements.
And Greenskins can occupy any settlement.

Is this cheating tho?

>>160949683
I never do it to completion, I do raze the outlying settlements for money and to fuck the AI over. Kraka Draks entire shtick on the other hand is being isolated and fighting against impossible odds, and failing.

>They can also occupy razed settlements
Also completely fine
>And Greenskins can occupy any settlement.
Fine since I have never seen Greenskins make an impact on a game. If you are playing Greenskins though it's cheating.

>>160947936
They can as well get my kidney if it means that they'll include the not!Tzardom Russia/Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth with Tzarin Katarina as LL.

They could even go so far as to bend the canon and rezz Tzar Ursus back to life and make Katrina a Princess just to make a good take your daughter to work day as the two cut loose on Chaos, Greenskins and more.

Can someone fill me in on naval combat in the total war series?

I'm one of the new fags that jumped on because of the fantasy setting (always wanted to try a total war game but something about historical settings turns me away, don't like assassins creed for that reason.) and I kind of think I want naval combat.

I'm now hearing that high elves and dark elves do a lot of combat in the water so I'm wondering how likely is it that we'll be getting proper boat/seamonster fights and are the navy fights in older TW games even good?

Late reply, but there was a stream today that included some concept art reveals for Wood Elves, Morghur LL and Harpies Unit for Beastmen. Check the Official Total War Twitch for the latest replay.

>Will TW:W get naval combat

Probably, the next expansion will add landmass across a big ol' ocean so it would seem like an obvious addition

>naval combat in past total war games good?

Varies quite a lot in quality, in some games it's atrocious, in others it's fun enough.

But for obvious reason it never really gets the attention it needs to REALLY be compelling.

>>160953149
They already covered that with Attila/AoC.

With the sale on, are Rome 2 and Atilla worth purchasing now?

Gelt's Golden Skellington regiment when?

>>160953821

Him and Sigvald have the best VAs and speeches

They're both trash

is there a way to remove trees in maps? I hate forest maps since I can't see shit

Anyone got the forged in hell achievement to work?

I have tried 10 chaos knight, and 10 chaos knights with lances and neither gives the achievement.

Also how do you get the chaos chalice item, i have it as Sigvald and its amazing.

>>160954414
Hold Space in battle, a menu should pop up on your right, you can disable "foliage" there (amongst other things)

It's only visual tho

>>160954568
visual is fine. I tried removing foliage but it only seemed to remove the grass, though I think that's cos the trees in the distance were too far away to be affected by the foliage off thing

Just bought Attila in the sale, which DLCs do I get?

>>160952096

its either victorian or china

Im absolutely fine with both since it means

Was just about to ask this.

Deciding on buying one and I'm leaning towards Attila because it's cheaper.

アセル・ローレンでは永遠のお茶会が行なわれています。その鮮やかな緑の中で「働いたら負け」は常識です。まさにNEET天国であります。その恵されたところではアリエルが永遠に森の平和を見張っています。

外の世界は辛い頑張りで苦しんでいる。苦しめば、苦しんでいるほど、NEETエルフの理想なのんびり王国を恨んでいるですがその恨んでいる過労死社会はアセル・ローレンに触れておくことさえできません。

まるで外の世界が存在してないのようで今日もお茶会が続いています。神隠しされた純粋少年がお茶入れたり森の妖精がそそっかしくに光っています。笑い声が夜更けまで響いています。

時期にNEETエルフが来ます。

Attila is also better. It's on sale for <$7 so definitely worth it.

Why is reddit so cucked?

Like why are you defending this? I don't even get the point, it's such a no brainer and easy thing to fix but you'd rather defend CA instead of seeing them fix this easy shit.

I just don't comprehend their way of thinking.

What about NapoopaN? I like Empire and the historical setting, but it just looks like more Empire to me.

>>160956660
It's like one of the non grand-campaigns from other games. It's more battle focused than economy because it's fairly short.

>WoC spawn on turn 3 of Empire VH campaign

did they change something in the last patch or is it a mod fucking up the game? got only true north, real combat and the magic mod that change gameplay, rest is just graphical mods.

>all those people wanting WW2 in the comments

What the fuck America?
Seemed to be a lot of interest about a China TW. But I'm thinking (hoping) they'll more likely stick to Europe and do 1500-1700.

What are some decent cosmetic and tweak mods for a first-time run in TWWH? Not looking for anything that significantly changes the game.

>>160957284
Dem Orkz!
Chaos Warriors With Swords

>>160956660
It's a slimmed down and refined ETW. Only Europe on the map but much better gameplay and considerably less buggy.
Battles are better but unit variety is lessened as well.

/twg/ is just as cucked if not more so, in fact Arch gets railed against because he is more tolerant of shitting on the lore than /twg/ and his entire channel is lorefagging. Didn't you see the endless posting defending one wall sieges, regional occupation and pretty much every other aberration in the game?

>>160957604

I'm the guy you're replying to and I also think Arch is a fucking moron.

Also anyone that needs the opinion of a fucking moron is even more so.

>>160958325

I don't hate Medieval 2

I just hate faggots treating Medieval 2 the immaculated pinnacle of the series when there are much better games out already

It's probably gonna be a WW1 game. Think about it.
There's so much hype around it, with The Great War series on YouTube, countless indie WW1 titles and Battlefield 1, the year long demand for it should be sated now that the hype is there.

He gets it.

OK guys, I'm playing Otomo and I own Kyushu and Shikoku, I am at peace and have been developing for a while, i own 4 trade posts and everyone else is at war.

Should I invade the main island? The only other time I played Shogun 2 this far I got absolutely obliterated by the Realm War thing, I am honestly pretty intimidated.

>>160958242
The Wargame series is an example of large scale real time modern warfare and it works fine.

Not that CA could pull it off, but its possible.
