It's my personal game of the year, lot of value in the base game. There are 4 base campaigns and each one can take upwards of 40hrs if you want to conquer the entire map. Game is actually much better now then it was at release, since there is more variety in; the opposition, maps, units, magic, resources.

There is also a lot of fun to be had with the game proper. You can play it as a city builder and take your time with settlements. Designing them for role playing value over function. What they have, where you will go in the chains. I had fun building walls around all of mine. Then there is the RTS element which is what you might come to expect. Then there is the tom foolery. You could make allies of nations then betray them become evil on your play through. Or you can make armies of meme units for funsies.

I made an ariel army with nothing but flying units. Or an army specialized in artillery for settlement busting. Of course all of my suggestions are optional and not the prime way to play but that's what makes it great. It's a single player game, there is no "right" way to play.

aaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Alright so there's something I've always been wondering. Something I'm not clear on.
Whenever I set up my battle lines I put my spears on the flanks unless it's M2 and I have only spear units for 99% of the game. Anyway, the AI likes to front charge my lines and I can't get over how terrible it feels, like I made a mistake, when he charges into sword infantry. I feel like 2 of my lines in the unit get demolished and the cav gets away with 4 or so causalities.

tl;dr Is it ever really a bad thing to frontal charge sword armed infantry? How about heavy armored infantry, but not spears?

>>162399557

What game? The AI flanks with cavalry in the newer ones.

>>162399557

Are you just sitting there and recieving the charge? Charge bonus is a big factor. If you aren't using defensive infantry you need to be charging as well.

>Black orcs can't swap weapons like in tabletop

If archers can, what's stopping them from giving the same to black orcs?

>>162399856
Let's say Medieval 2 for the old games, and Warhammer for the new ones.

Does cav get punished for frontal charging sword infantry standing still? Also my memory might be tainted by the shitty charges from M2 where it's better to charge units standing still because if you collide with the few running ones out in front of the rest it's like your men stop charging to engage in melee.

>>162400295

because youz muckin about

>>162400174
updated drivers?
disabled mods?
verified cache?

>>162400156
Ah, see, there's something I was never clear on, when to counter-charge.
Should I be standing still with spears (facing correctly, obviously) and charging with anything else?

>>162400238
Reikland's done:
The End Times herald
The Age of Shitmar

>>162400295

That'd be pretty cool. Spears if fighting cav, great weapons for monsters, hand weapons for everything else.

>>162400446

Generally with Spears, you just want to get into combat with cavalry period, so you wind up chasing them around a bit and rarely get the ideal scenario

If they are actually are going to charge into your Spears, you want your spearmen to be still and many ranks deep. This will give them the mass required to absorb the charge properly. If your spear unit is spread thin, they'll run over the whole unit and you'll take more casualties.

For swords, it's bad if cavalry is charging, I usually charge back just to maximize the amount of casualties they take for it.

If this is how battles are gonna feel in M3, I'm all in, baby.
Too bad CA doesn't have obvious engine test games like Paradox. March of the Eagles being a pre-EU4 for example, and Sengoku for CK2.

So if we have maps and everything of most cities in warhammer and pictures of them then why don't the siege battles reflect this. Why is middenheim the same goddamn map as any other shitty citywhen it should be on a mountain and where the fuck is its massive cannon? Why isn't that a mechanic where siege battles against major/important cities have unique mechanics? It was really fucking disappointing in the beastmen campaign. I was expecting them to put at least a modicum of effort in and have an absurdly huge battle with my 4 stacks of beastmen against todbringer's 2 stacks and garrison and instead I get a shitty walled settlement and I had to get rid of the warherds because they caused the game to fucking crash and CA still hasn't fucking fixed it yet as far as I'm aware.

Quite surprised at how poorly the treekin fared against armored trolls, they couldnt penetrate the armor at all i thought their charge defense might have helped.

They're also pretty decent in CC and are durable as balls, so you could spec them into support if you didn't want to invest in magic times.

>>162409037
I don't know about regular dorfs, but Chaos Dorfs are explicitly stated to slowly turn to stone because they use magic and that's antithetical to their dorfishness. There was a special rule in their FW army book to represent this, I think.

>>162409037

Just chaos dwarf magic users, it's the negative side effect of being a magic resistant race using magic.

>>162409037
They turn to stone if they use/channel magic like everyone else instead of working on it with runes
Chaos dwarf sorcerers have all sorts of fancy ways to prevent themselves from turning to stone, like mechanical leg/braces to keep them trudging along

>>162409037
Nah, only Chaos Dwarfs. It's like when a human worshipper of Chaos gets more mutations until they degenerate into Spawn.

Still, you probably shouldn't be able to just sit back and do nothing a lot. Maybe your archers were shooting your own men and giving the enemy free kills. Cavalry shouldn't be stuck into infantry, they need to charge over and over again.

Don't listen to these fags, there's nothing wrong with Chaos Warriors if you know what you want.

Firstly, cosmetics is key, either get Chaos Cosmetics V2 or Chaos Warriors with Swords (several differences, mainly capes).

Second, know how to get the most out of the campaign. Beeline for Warriors and forget about upkeep, as Norscans settlements give Huge moneys. Once you've hatefucked the Norse out of growth and money head south, they should either beg for peace or waste away completely.

Then fight whatever you want and make armies however you want. Battles and sackings will earn tonnes of loot, and you can support as many armies as you want. Keep recruiting instead of trying to replentish.

Vlad is technically dead and gone in the timeframe the game is set (Karl Franz' coronation), he only comes back when Nagash does so personally in the End Times
In this case, he's just there because he's cool
Vlad's death was after Mannfred meddled in his siege of altdorf, causing the loss of his ring that revives him

Okay so, despite some switching around of the order, the datamine still appears to be pretty accurate for DLC that costs money.

The next race should be Tomb Kings if CA are sticking with the schedule for the first game. But that still leaves DLC 7, which is between the Wood Elves release and the Tomb Kings.

I've been trying to think about what is left to include that would be okay for them to sell. But I'm drawing a bit of a blank. I suppose they could do another Legendary Lord pack, but that seems odd since there wouldn't be many units left for the initial four races for them to include along with the Lords.

Any thoughts?

Make sure to get the + horde growth lord skill before anything else. Dismantling the marauder building reduces the growth cost of other buildings so you should do it as soon as you can make the chaos warrior building. Don't worry too much about awakening the tribes because it's a gigantic waste of time. Even though your stacks take attrition next to each other you can still use them to reinforce as long as you attack in the same turn. And make sure you get block army on your wizards and lightning strike on your lords
