There's literally no way it won't be out next year

They might push it back a month or two to put more stuff in it, but with the rate they've been putting out content they won't just suddenly leave a 6-9 month void of nothing.

Trust me not all the Chinese modders are like that. The team has gone through several splits and really ugly public spats on the forums on making money off of mods

The only reason I have access is because I said I'd promote their mod on TWC and on Western websites like 4chan

There is a free version somewhere on the forums but I think that one is 1 year behind the "paid" version in updates.
Anyway, from left to right, the factions are:

Mongolian Qing
The Shogunate
Kingdom of Myanmar
British Invading Force
French Invading Force
Outer Mongolia (non-Qing Affiliated)
Nguyen Dynasty of Vietnam
Khanate of Khokan
Shi Da Kai's Taiping Army
Nien Rebels
Qing Imperial Army
Empire of Russia
Huai Army
Xiang Army
Yi Dynasty of Korea
Sepoy Rebels
Tibet
Kingdom of Siam
Taiping Empire
Meiji Government

They've been stretching out the releases of DLC, and since Bretonnia is supposed to come out in February it will either be late February with another DLC in mid January or it will be early February and we'll go two whole months without new content after Wood Elves

And Bretonnia is both free and half-finished already, so this seems like a cover to get more time. The next DLC after Bretonnia will probably be something like Ariel or something. I'm not sure what else they'd include alongside Ariel. Or wait Ariel would be FLC for Orion's faction of Welfs and you'd have Todbringer and Taurox? No wait because Taurox would also be DLC for DLC. Shit I dunno.

But I have no doubt that the earliest you'll see the expansion is June 2017 the way they're trying to space the DLC out more and the way they've got it so that Bretonnia will be the only new stuff we see during the middle of Winter.

DId you guys know about this?

Could the lack of naval battles have anything to do with GW imposing it to not have competition with this game?
>>
>watch LegendofTotalWar's WRE let's play campaign
>the entire time he's bitching about how much he hates attila
>all the battles are just 45 minute cheese-fests where he brings his archers up to the wall and peppers the enemy until he's used every last bit of ammo before rushing in and killing whatever remnants of a defense is left
>in his 111 episodes, probably 90% of the episodes consists of him micromanaging his cities and figuring out the meta build that every city HAS to be on legendary because attila has awful city management
>there's like 5 defensive garrison battles every end turn
>he eventually just starts spamming stacks and autoresolving everything

And that's when I realized that playing WRE is not only EXTREMELY boring but also EXTREMELY repetitive and EXTREMELY tedious. I've never seen legend so utterly defeated mentally, it's clear that he's never been so bored playing a campaign in his life.

I decided instead to play as the ostrogoths. It's been a dynamic, unique, and awesome campaign where I get to enjoy roman units without having to play the most boring campaign in total war history

crossbows and spears, make a semicircle and hold the formation. You'll lose over half your men and barely win out in the end if you're lucky.

The actual best way to deal with stacks of horse archers is to spam stacks and autoresolve that shit. Beat them once but dont destroy them entirely, and they'll wander around in a weakened state with a bunch of shitty tier-1 mercs for the rest of the campaign because hordes rarely encamp long enough to replenish. Then you just defend your borders and wait for an opportunity to kill attila, which is pretty much the only hun battle you actually have to fight. I just bought like 8 stacks and autoresolved that shit, it's the best way.

They can fire on the move and in a 360 degree arc around themselves on top of having innate armor piercing like handgunners. We need to wait and see if the range and damage compares, but it looks like when they're coupled with a full ranged skill lord they'll be the best ranged units in the game.

1. Divide provinces into either; military (only need 1), money (focus on 1 type of industry) or food
2. Build wells in each village
3. Never spend influence, except for loyalty
4. Suicide 1 stack any generals who are disloyal
5. Turn taxes to max to get rid of immigrants in 1 to 3 turns

Congratulations; you have beaten Attila civic management by having a flawless military province, infinite gold, infinite food, no sanitation issues, no public order issues and no chance of civil war.

I feel Lokerian does a better job with the garrisons than SFO does, and you can just use the garrison commanders mod to get commanders for them.

Well the garrisons thing is the main part about SFO. I just mentioned it because people seem to get turned off by it. Just a small warning for otherwise neat mod. SFO actually buffed the T4 garrisons recently.

One of the best things about the mod is how much better some of the factions do in the campaign map as the AI and so on. Also the game is slightly slower overall.

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.

why would you care about casualties as VC? If anything you get another corpse pile to pull tonnes of units out of.

Barring that, a vampire lord will kill them all himself, if you chase away the skirmishers.

My tactics rely on quick morale breaks. Morale breaks do not happen when you fight fucking flagellants.

Also, they're OP on VH/VH and in the enemy's hands.

Mallobaude was nameless until the End Times rolled around, hence he is a meme

It is also possible he will be banned by GW specifically because he is End Times and hence the Red Duke makes more sense for the leader of a Mousillon subfaction

Did any of you guys play Ultimate General: Gettysburg?

I am unclear about some things in terms of how I should pursue of battle objectives.

Is there a finite amount of Union soldiers across all missions that I have to murder?
They get reinforcements every day and I'm not sure if they will at some point have sent all the soldiers so that reinforcements stop arriving and I can shoot everyone to win or hwat

Is it of vital importance that I take all the victory points every mission or is it alright if I hold on to my points and shoot a lot of Yanks?

I'm playing Shogun 2 and I just don't see the need to build buildings to recruit anything higher than basic units, such as ashigaru (or infantry/spearmen in fall of the samurai). Sure, they fight better but they cost more in maintenance too. Seems more logical to just use the building slot for economic benefits then recruit basic units in huge numbers. Each unit is crap, but when you have twice as many men on the field you can do a shitload of flanking. In fact, I have used this strat in many TW games. Anyone else do this?

To get super-duper-heroic victory, Darth wantsyou to take all of the points, more or less, get about a 2:1 ratio, and also lose less than 20,000 Confederates overall. It's pretty difficult.

Your best chance is to be somewhat conservative with Hill and get a knockout with Ewell's corps when the yankees are overextended. If you have to fight with Longstreet in the south it's impossible to get the sort of ratios you need because that terrain is punishing.

It'd be kind of cool to play a diplomacy heavy strategy game where going to war was a fail state. The twist would be that having a big/well equipped military is still vital, as it ensures your demands are taken seriously, but once relations deteriorate to such an extent that bombs are dropping, you lose the game.
"Incidents" could be randomly occurring events that cause a massive shift in diplomacy with an opponent, such as naval patrols being fired on, terrorist attacks, assassinations or unjust arrests of diplomatic personnel, and the more hostile you are with a country, the more likely it is that Incidents will happen and eventually spark a war.
At the same time, just bowing out and playing nice with everyone also makes you lose, as your nation becomes a puppet to another empire. It'd be a game of careful balancing, trying to ensure that your desires are met without being too bullish, and finding compromise without playing too far into another faction's hands.

Absolutely retarded idea.

If there was enough people to have even survived an apocalyptic event, we wouldn't be immediately going back to manipals and hand-to-hand combat.

I mean, if you want to be border raiding & skirmish simulator, then be my guest, but it doesn't make for a fun game.

Could you image if TW battles consisted of dozens of men, instead of thousands?

watching like....40 guys fight isn't very interesting

I remember the early days of Rome 2 where you had random objective points, but they didn't make sense since they were arbitrarily placed.

Now, lets say they bring back objective points, but put them inside of a manned encampment that you'd have to take or something.


These "all-in" battles that TW depict are highly unrealistic, ahistorical, and pretty boring at the end of the day. Very few battles came down to killing the last man and entirely breaking their army.

The battle mechanics need to be revamped or made to be deeper. They've always done stuff with the campaign side of the game, while practically ignoring the main part of the game, the battles.

Idk what exactly they could do, but they need to make the battles more interesting or varied so every battle doesn't devolve into H&A shenanigans

So given that the Empire State Troops wear 16th century european armor and Renaissance inspired clothing, is it a semi-safe bet that the next historical will be Renaissance based?

I mean CA is really fond of re-using assets, so they could easily just port over some stuff from The Empire to use.

I mean remember those Morion helms that they were using on Empire troops before release? Those would be perfect for a Renaissance era game.


I know some people don't like the idea of a Pike & Shotte TW, but its immensely better than any game based in China/India

>>161378451

Please.
Hammer & Anvil is beaten off by squares.
Horse Archer spam is beaten by firepower & bayonets.
Gunlines is the only viable choice.

>>161378334

As far as I can tell, P&S is:

Immobile artillery.
Shot has no bayonets & needs to hide behind Pikes to hold off Cavalry & Close-combat Infantry.
So, remove enemy Pikes & ride all over Shot.
Cavalry btfo by Infantry of equal type.

Basically, imagine a mix between late-game high-tech M2 faction & early-game low-tech Empire faction.
>>
>>161378334

well for starters, Napoleonic warfare centers around gun-lines and cannons, with cavalry to mop up.

Pike and shotte would be similar, but you'd have combined arms in the form of Tercios, or pikemen mixed with hand-gunners. Since guns weren't as strong, heavily armored Knights were still prevalent on the battlefield.


So really, just think of a mix of late Medieval warfare mixed with guns and cannons.

I mean, just look at the Empire in TWWH, and that's pretty much it, asides from the lack of pikes

yeah, one thing CA will have to implement if we're ever going to have a semi-realistic Pike & Shotte game is if they allow you to have multiple troop types within a unit.

For example, having a pike unit that also contains missile troops within it. Mixing troop types within the same unit is a feature sorely lacking within TW.
>>
>>161379076

>I mean, just look at the Empire in TWWH, and that's pretty much it, asides from the lack of pikes

This.
Pikes were basically there just to counter Cavalry.
Halberds (and the like) are much better choice to counter Infantry & Monsters.

It's fucking dumb that this isn't in the game by default, but use it.

It's sad you need to use a mod, but it's worth it. I mean, I remember playing Rome 1 as Parthia - I always knew that there was going to be a fun end-boss towards the end of the campaign, with Rome guaranteed to be a power-faction. Even in Shogun 2, you knew that a good chunk of the later game power-factions would be major clans. I really don't get how they can make a game titled around a particular civilisation and then cuck the AI so that the titular civilization never reaches any position of strength. I've never seen Rome do well (ie, break out of Italy, beyond one or two provinces in Africa) in vanilla Rome 2.

>>161384817
I'm gonna have to start a new campaign using that, thanks anon. It's always so frustrating when I make it to the West as Baktria or down south as the Iceni and there's nothing left of Rome, or at best like you said, they've taken some of North Africa and nothing else.

I don't because it makes things too predictable, but hey, Rome 1 had a similar level of predictability to the world within this mod.

Man, this is a weird DEI campaign for me. Epirus completely just destroyed all the other Greek city states. Massilia is taking most of Iberia, Egypt dominates Asia Minor with Seleucid. The Tulingi have conquered most of Gaul.

Although I crippled Carthage, they now have like 5 full stacks with each of their client states having 1 or 2.

The worst thing is, 95% of my troops are some shitty punic auxiliaries. I'd rather have my late hastati than that.

some anon said that its a simple mod, with barely any assets or anything, never played it personally

it has the deepest lore though:
>In the Grand Courthouse in the grounds of the Small Senate, Fucker Joe was put on trial for his crimes. Lord Maximus himself was the presiding judge of the case. Fucker Joe, surprising many of those in the courtroom, announced his intention to represent himself in the court of Glazic Law. Indeed, Fucker Joe was an eloquent and persuasive speaker, likely contributing to his success as a serial killer. Fucker Joe's primary defense shocked the civilized world.

not the mod packer you dipshit. You do realize that if some mod creator starts replicating or create copyright protected stuff in their game using any kind of mod-support in their game, that CA can be held liable for it? That is why you don't have official mod-support for most major titles, because the developers straight up don't want to deal with the legel repercussions that might follow from it.

Bethesda even considered to drop mod-support for their games once, because the cost-maintenance was growing exponentially with the amount of mods created for skyrim.

7th edition Beastmen army book was written by a guy who didn't like Beastmen or WHFB in general.

6th edition gave them a lot of great customs and factioanl nuances other than "hates everyone and wants to kill everything".

>More accostumed to chaos due to being born into it, molded by it while humans merely adapted the chaos.
>Bray Shamans can actually walk through the realm of chaos and talk with daemons without going crazy, unlike humans
>Humans mutants born with beastman traits are often carried by one of their parents out to the forest to be handed over to the beastmen. The bray shaman proceeds to inspect the child to see if it's worthy of adoption. The beastmen won't harm the parent who brought the child. These adopted children have the word "gave" included in their name. They're treated as equal members of the herd and not discriminated against.

Also, just because it hasen't happened before(even though it has), doesn't mean that AAA gaming companies want to risk it. This is where the lawyers get involved, and give them legel counsel and some form of protection, so the company can take the right actions to avoid these legel issues.

Just because nobody has ever been prosecuted for crossing a red light in a crosswalk, doesn't make it any less illegal (in some countries).

Not even remotely the thing we were talking about

That was a company that was sued BY THE DEVELOPER OF THE GAME because they were selling a compilation of user made levels.

That's like if CA sued someone because they were selling a bundle of Total War: Warhammer mods that they didn't even make.

You wanna try again?

>Also, just because it hasen't happened before(even though it has)

It hasn't

>doesn't mean that AAA gaming companies want to risk it

This is correct.

Companies generally prefer to limit any possible liabilities, even imagined ones, which this very much is.

>Just because nobody has ever been prosecuted for crossing a red light in a crosswalk, doesn't make it any less illegal

Crossing a red light is a concrete act that is concretely illegal. I fucking dare you to find anything remotely concrete that makes video game developers liable for people making infringing mods for their games.

It's pretty mixed, I'd say the times of legends books especially the Nagash trilogy are well worth the read and set up a lot of the setting.

I definitely wouldn't rule it out, but it would have to be a special event or campaign since Nagash is probably the strongest character in the setting that isn't a god.

Explain this bullshit.

I pass the turn.
Right Beasties move in and attack me.
Ambush! pops up.
How the FUCK am I getting ambushed if I'm not moving anywhere?

>Green Knight mechanic: Bretonnian armies which are losing a battle and have a free slot can summon the Green Knight to fight alongside them

>>161395773
Also the reason Vampires burn in the sun and at the sight of the Twin-Tailed Comet/Ghal Maraz is because Nagash was really pissed off that they deserted him at the battle against Sigmar

But honestly Nagash should be an alternate end game invasion that isn't Chaos, not everything has to be Chaos.
>>
>>161396454

Beastmen armies can ambush offensively, that's their entire shtick.

I don't see anything about specific characters, all it says is a third LL. They haven't even officially confirmed Morgana yet, but we all know she's in.

According to GW, it does have to be all about Chaos.

>I don't see anything about specific characters,

Then look again

>A contrast of lowly peasant masses and proud knightly orders, the feudal kingdom of Bretonnia features a host of powerful units and is lead into battle by a choice of three playable Legendary Lords; King Louen Leoncoeur, Alberic of Bordeleaux and the Fay Enchantress.
>King Louen Leoncoeur, ALBERIC OF BORDELEAUX and the Fay Enchantress.

>>161396493
yeah and the Arkhan campaign should be ike the Oak of Ages only you collect dark magic and quest battle for relicts to ressurect Nagash, which will then be usable in grand campaign.

I'm not /lit/ but I enjoyed reading a novel called the Fall of the Dragonbacks centered around the Dwarven hold Ekrund. The writer does a good job giving you insight into dwarven culture and behaviour. And since it revolves around "The Fall of the Dragonbacks" it takes place during the Time of Woe which followed the conflict between the Elves and Dwarves. The narrative is centered around one dwarf family and follows a few different characters at different times. Even if you aren't a dwarf fanboy I think you might enjoy it.

Bretonnia confirmed to be the last race /faction.
>>
>>161397704
If they are going to do another race DLC after wood elves it would have to be something like Kislev that would be a bit easier to make than the other factions
>>
>>161394195
I highly recommend Riders of the Dead by Den Abnett. It follows a story of two imperial sodiers who got separated after a devastating loss. One was captured by Norscans, other was forced to retreat into Kislev. Great book, kinda low-fantasy, magic and monsters are kept to a minimum, which kinda helps you to see the setting from the eyes of average Joe. Great fluff on Kislev and Norscan societies.

I'm new to Attila, how do I keep my conquested provinces happy?
I'm the Suebi and I took Northwest Spain to get comfy, but my income only allows for two armies and rebels keep on popping up take my third undefended town, which either drives me into debt or sends me into a famine, depending on which town I defend.
And my happiness is barely increasing and I don't think I'm going to get these rebels to stop spawning any time soon
>>
>>161398054
Convert them to your faith.
Build buildings that give public order.
Increase sanitation.
Keep killing rebels.
>>
>>161397820
What is there to suggests it needs to be 'easy'? You are delusional if you think the expansion is coming any sooner than August, giving them plenty of time. Skaven could easily be released between February and then.

why did they remove this from Med 1 and Shogun 1?

med 1 is king when it comes to campaign map
The systems all make sense and aren't opaque and keep focus on battles.

Skaven will be unplayable if you don't own the New World expansion, since they're going to be the fourth faction there as Clan Pestilens

yeah no, Pestilens has 4 unique units and Skavenblight is already on the vanilla map. They'd be wasted in an expansion when they can sell for a £15-20 DLC.
>>
>>161402094
There are going to be four races added in the New World expansion

And since it won't count as DLC for DLC because expansions like Fall of the Samurai aren't counted as DLC it means they can then charge you extra for a Queek Headtaker subfaction pack and a Clan Eshin and Clan Moulder subfaction pack
