Hi there!
You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a name when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your name when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a name when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!
Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bit to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!

Didnt know lionheart was a manlet
>>162830515
For a start both are dead and Goblins have all their units (apart from spear chukka and manglers but I don't see them getting in since two gobbo dlcs is pushing it). Hopefully CA aren't retarded and make a Skaven versus high elf DLC because of island of blood. They are such a shitty match up.

When did Eltharion die?
Grom is just missing after riding off into the sunset. More importantly his plot and character is too good, and he's a great device to make remote Ulthuan interesting and get Greenskins interacting with High Elves & vice-versa.

So?
So is Azhag and Marius Leitdorf, both are in the game.

Ignoring them quickly devolves into cancerous generals. Once namefag culture gets ingrained its just socializing and blogposting.

I was just thinking part of the reason why these games saw so few women playing them was because of advertisements directed towards men.
>>162832564
Women in general don't like hanging around turbonerd neckbeards
>>162832021
Azhag got his fuckin head cut off and he's a Greenskin LL
CA doesnt give a shit about whos alive or dead
>>162832663
women in general don't like crafting and painting small models then memorising rules for a tabletop game about war, another thing women don't like.
>>162832564
GW have always said how surprised they are that so many women do play it.
>>162832764
Azhag is still well and alive during the game's timeline
Which is the year Karl Franz became the
Emperor
>>162832021
Plot armour will find a way. A Helf vs Greenskin dualing character pack, with two solid narative characters in the IP, is too good to go to waste.
Others Helfs are stuck on a lonely island not doing much.

No, you just don't understand what's actually meant by the term
When you think of the word "obese" what you're picturing is someone who is MORBIDLY obese.
>>162832927
If the game goes by Storm of Chaos, which I think it does, Azhag has been dead for like 7 or 8 years

why can elves shoot farther than empire crossbowmen again? if they shot more accurately or shot THREW trees (cause they are WOOD elves duh) it would actually make sense. does CA know they are retarded

Hey guys my friend is obsessed with Warhammer and always wants me to play with him but he always spends like 20 minutes taking his turn even in the early stages of the game and he's the worst teacher in the world (I've never played a total war game before) is this game worth trying to figure out on my own?

Draw weight isn't the only factor in range, but I'm not about to argue that it's realistic that they outrange crossbows which usually isn't the case. Warhammer elves aren't weaker than humans though.

Thanks my good dude
So hawk riders are about 10x better than eagles at destroying and routing enemy ranged units in melee, while still having an okay ranged attack. What are eagles for? Are they good at helping a unit that is already engaged in melee combat? Eagles take a good 5 seconds of walking away before they can even fly again.

It really is badly designed, Middenland, Talabecland could have 4 settlements, the wasteland could have another, Ostermark, Nordland, Stirland could all have 1 more settlement.

>>162836989
wildriders are a thousands time more effective at that and are half the price (for orion). then you also have treekin, treemen, your lords, dryads, all causing fear.
Eagleas only have fear, not terror. you'd need a dragon for that. on top of this dispite being a "forest psirit" they do not have the phys resistance that other spirits have. I think they were a mistake.
>>162836398

Legendary has just descended into complete suffering, I don't think CA really thought about it when they've 'fixed' the problems the community has had. It will only get worse with more factions especially if they are hordes.

>England
Iceni/Casse -> Last Kingdom Anglo Saxons -> M2 England -> War of the Roses -> Victorian England
>France
Arverni/Aedui -> Invasio Barbarorum Franks -> M2 France -> there's probably some Renaissance/Napoleonic era mods with France
>Egypt/Macedon/Seleucids
Not sure what to do about these factions as the end point is Ottoman Empire. Broken Crescent distinguishes the Middle Eastern factions quite well

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0FEo2WSLBM
>>162838690
sure which is I also said it is surprising how many women DO play warhammer, but the wargaming and painting is still more of a reason for them to avoid it than teh advertising. Women actually respond to sexualized advertizing as much or more than men.
>>162838709
When you stop spamming twg with animes
It's kinda dumb that same factions talk to you as if you were nothing. I mean, calling fucking orion "traitor" and "liar"? Karl getting told he don't have the emperors authority? That's just dumb
>>162839440
To be fair, Orion IS a beastman that just wants to destroy the old world, not defend a forest.
Would be fun to have a battle mishmash from all tw games one day to fuck around with. Seeing roman legionnaires vs chaos, french riflemen vs orc and breton knights vs date samurai. An impossible dream though
Are you supposed to micro Kholek a lot? Seems to knock over a lot of shit.
I know this isn't /gsg/, but they're too busy shitposting /pol/ memes and prussia. Anyone tried the warhammer mod for ck2? Does it feel well made and full of stuff or empty and bare?
>>162840038
It's full of stuff and has a decent amount of depth unlike it's Elder Scrolls counterpart that adds ridiculous shit outside of Tamriel and nothing of substance for any one nation/culture.
The only problem is how slow the game gets with processing with THAT many factions (so I'd get the version without Skavens or whatever).
>>162839774
Total War: Mythology would be neat, You get all the major factions from different cultures (Romans, Japanese, Vikings etc) with the ability to recruit mythical creatures alongside your regular historical units and use the powers of their gods as a magic system.
Kinda like what Spartan: Total Warrior was going for.
i dont know what faction to play, link me the faction roll picture pls
>>162840343
That would be cool.
>>162840343
I don't mean factions unified from a new game, but rather all older game factions with their stats intact like it was in their respective games. No campaign just battle sandbox

you sound insecure about your height? or am i wrong? being 170 is chill, not to short, nor to tall. did you know tallfags live shorter life in general? because their heart has to pump harder for the blood to reach their brain, thus the heart will give out earlier.

They are "looking into it"
I seriously think they may have just forgotten or put it off for a deadline. A lot of this DLC feels rushed in areas.
I think in response to Beastmen backlash, they focused their efforts into releasing a full roster for the DLC race, which is great. Having basically the whole Wood Elf army book out of the gate is fantastic, but other parts of the Wood Elf release feel thin by comparison.
>>162841459

>>162844037

>>162845873
They will shit out stacks, they don't have an economy. Your best bet is to build two gobo spams, send them to besiege those dorfs to the south of you, and have them in reinforcement range. That is assuming you literally just started our your campaign and are in a stalemate with the dorfs, because that happens all the time.
just finished the mini campaign and it's official
durthu has soloed every single LL and won
>>162845873
>AI
>run out of gold
>>162846391
I can't even leave my fort because the vault dwarfs are lurking around and the neighboring ones have 1 full stack that always comes back after I kill it and another half stack in their fort.
I really don't know how to proceed.
>>162845873
They have an economy, but get extra income depending on the difficulty.
Like how the player gets 2500 base income on hard, the Ai might get 1.5 times or double that.

>>162847413
Hover over the terrain that your army is trying to ambush in, it should show a %
>catch up to an enemy
>they retreat
>retreat puts them on the other side of a river in a different province
>>162847413
Ambush chance is based on terrain. Hover your cursor over the campaign map. You have a higher chance when in or near forests, but you're always able to attempt an ambush anywhere. With enough skills and retainers you can reliably ambush people in the middle of open fields.

pikes are broken, guns are semi-broken don't give them an attack order just point them in the general direction and let them pick their own targets, guns, xbows and javelines don't shoot down from walls, retreating into the inner keep makes the AI bug out 9 times out of 10, camera controls are a bit wonky, and the game is prone to crashes, all your neighbours will inevitably declare wars on you so only bother making alliances with factions you don't share a border with
bellum crucis is a really cool mod BUT it has shit translation and version 7.0 has some broken features you will need to fix with submods (jihads for example never happen in it)
stainless steel is the most popular historic overhaul, and is pretty good and stable but has shit balance, it makes cavalry even more op than it is in vanilla
the LOTR mod is pretty good, but I personally got tired of it really quickly
overall is a fun and charming game, but rather clunky and buggy
>>162848349
But in Stainless Steel's defence, the idea of any Western European infantry for example standing up to a knightly cavalry charge is kind of preposterous. Only in isolated circumstances I believe do we ever see infantry resist knights.
>>162847930
I feel ya, I'm just on a Zelda kick right now so I wanted to give it a try, the stalfos gimmick seems pretty cool
>>162848695
Pikes and spears pointed in the direction of cavalry has historically thwarted many charges
>>162848695
>>162848750
This is how the Pike/Cavalry game normally played out, a lot of dancing around until some one flinches.
>>162844016
It's true. Durthu literally chased my beastmen across the world. When I hide he fucks off most times, but he's always watching.. waiting.. Though in one way it's fun to have a big bad suddenly come and drive my horde to enter new shores instead of chilling in estria or tilea. Feels more like survival instead of stomping around being invincible
>>162848695
Where are you getting this information? From my understanding, horses won't even charge a dense block of men. You have to make a section route first, then the knights finish the job and break the army. Of course total war could never replicate this, just like how somehow pike infantry and phalanxes can turn on a dime.
>>162849097
Mate the go to knightly tactic was the full frontal charge with a lance. Infantry of the high middle ages was by and large pitifully equipped, trained and motivated compared to any man at arms. For example against the Guelphs you'll see often less than a thousand German knights many times run over masses of Italian infantry. Legano is so famous for being the one time the Italian citizen militia held up against the German knights shock charge.
reading up on some of the lore on durthu and it's quite sad. no wonder he turned into a mad cunt
>>162850487
He had a hard life
>Elf-Mounter
What do they mean by this?
How are you supposed to make enough money to survive as a tw horde? One army can't plunder and siege, and you can't plunder where you siege, yet your strongest horde must stay to siege while your weaker will just get destroyed if he goes plundering. How are you even supposed to afford strong units without going into red?
What unit size do you guys use?
Is magic still better when using a low size?
>>162848750
That is pike warfare which didn't become really relevant in medieval battle until after 1300. Before that and well after the man at arms ruled supremely. Shit in the French invasion of Switzerland I'm the latter of the 15th century under the Dauphin, we see a mass of 1,500 Swiss pikemen suffer defeat and annihilation from repeated French knight frontal attacks on their squares of 500. Spearmen of the middle ages were by and large useless against knights and men at arms.
>>162850756
Beastmen is pure shit.
I'm sorry you wasted your money on it.

>>162850461
>Historians such as John Keegan have shown that when correctly prepared against (such as by improvising fortifications) and, especially, by standing firm in face of the onslaught, cavalry charges often failed against infantry, with horses refusing to gallop into the dense mass of enemies,[4] or the charging unit itself breaking up. However, when cavalry charges succeeded, it was usually due to the defending formation breaking up (often in fear) and scattering, to be hunted down by the enemy.
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_(warfare)#Cavalry_charges
Find a source for me dummy. You can't just anonymously post things like they are facts.
>>162851059
>Standing firm
thats the key. professional soldiers could if trained. but Levied or militia troops when in the din of battle when faced with a thundering charge of thousands of horses and men with full plate bearing down on them could break.
The key to a cavalry charge wasn't charging in and fighting the enemy until they broke. It was actually breaking the enemy before reaching them by virtue of being terrifying and then running them down as they began to break up and scatter. As the anon above said. Its a case of dancing around until some one flinches.

>>162851059
"Historians such as John Keegan have shown that when correctly prepared against (such as by improvising fortifications) and, especially, by standing firm in face of the onslaught, "
This right here is the key friend. In the instances we do see this happen, like at Agincourt, Legano, Crecy, or Najera, cavalry and knights do fail, often spectacularly so. But more often than not the infantry of the age was of a low quality and/or simply could not and would not hold up to a frontal cavalry charge without such preparations, such as at Patay, Arsuf, Iraklion, Cortonuevo or Montiperti, or another battle whose name escapes me, from the Hohenstaufen wars in Italy, where German knights ran down 10k Roman militia, or a serious morale booster, such as the city idols for the Italians at Legano. I hope this is better.

Attila is kinda weird. Some battles lasts REALLY long while others are REALLY fast. I remember one siege battle that took fucking forever to end because of one last brawl at the last area. It was in that barbarian village map that is at the top of a cliff.
Never.Ever.
>>162852254
Exactly, and the defeat of yours I spoke of against the French knights only made them terrified at the idea of facing 30k more of you if they advanced on. Their invasion of Switzerland in the late 1400s didn't last long due to you and your pikes.

How do you guys deal with underground battles as the vampire cunts?
You can't encircle the enemy and just throwing zombies at the enemy doesn't do anything, especially if it's the dwarves with the quarrelers.
>>162852771
bats and graveguard
>>162852771
> just throwing zombies at the enemy doesn't do anything, especially if it's the dwarves with the quarrelers.
Recruit more necromancers and just throw zombies until their front line is tired, then cavalry charge
>School bully not so tough after being raped.
Ah fuck. I just realized that I made the mistake to not save the replay. it was a good battle.except for the part where i hid my branchwraith behind a forest so that his hell cannons would waste all their ammunition trying to hit it until they were out of ammo before i started my assault. That was purely cheesing it, but I mean come on its fucking Archaon
>>162853016
Bats do nothing against dwarves and graveguard just loses to superior dwarf infantry, no?
>>162853064
Does it really matter if I bring more necromancers or should I bring more corpse carts? Which one is better?
>wildwood rangers are anti-large specialists that can beat greatswords in melee
what did CA mean by this?
>>162853224
>Bats do nothing against dwarves and graveguard just loses to superior dwarf infantry, no?
No. Bats tie down the artillery and ranged units for the entire battles while graveguard destroy their infantry. I always get the master of the swarm tech for bats too. For even easier mode you could just mass crypt horrors.

Can someone who has the WE dlc tell me whether Durthur and Orion have skills that reduce the holdout time for sieges. I'm a bit tired of only lasting for 2 turns before suffering attrition.
>>162853302
Greatswords are 26-38 year old bastards who swing a sword for ten pennies a day, while Wildwood Rangers are centuries old Warriors fighting off the worst kind of beasts warhammer nature can concieve on a daily basis.

from a CA interview in a polish site
So I've tried Welfs as both Orion and Durthu and I really can't see any tangible benefit to picking Orion
Am I missing something? Because playing as Durthu seems to be superior in every possible way
>>162861984
Based CA.
>>162861984
On a purely mechanical level, age of sigmar doesn't make sense for a total war game since they moved to having some planescape type shit with different worlds rather than having a world that's essentially the same as Earth and fits neatly into total campaign maps.

What races are missing now?
I just did some counting and i'm worried it wont be enough for 2 more expansions + DLC.
Are they just gonna add more unitsas DLC from now on?
>>162864548
People are suggesting that the second expansion will focus on chaos (since there is a metric fuckton of chaos units from daemons and warriors of chaos).
They could also just start making stuff up to put it in the game if they really wanted to (like an Estalia/Tilea roster)
>>162864548
skaven, dark elves, high elves, ogre kings, tomb kings, chaos dwarfs, lizardmen, daemons,
and then the various unique factions: kislev, estalia, araby, cathay, etc.
desu desu, a young teenager only thinks that new races/factions are grounds for an expansion/content, when gameplay can be enhanced and morphed into so much more with each iteration
>>162864823
I do hope they add gameplay changes to the expansions.
Add all the stuff that's missing from the earlier games. I think the macro is missing a shit ton of features. I really miss the food/religion bullshit, and having more than 1 income/growth building.
But i doubt that they're going to touch the game in that sense. I see them releasing maps, units and races, and not much more.
>>162864548

Tomb kings
High elves
Dark elves
Ogre kingdoms

So who's watching Time Commanders?
>it's a "lose confidence in your ability to win a campaign" play session
>>162864970
I don't really see how good will be added again, what would they do for the factions that don't eat?
Religion is is pretty pointless since corruption is a thing now, and it makes no sense for there to be issues from religious differences since your exterminating the other race when you settle there, a dwarf hold taken by orcs is not gonna need 10 turns to stop orcs worshipping manlet Gods.
Did Ancient Empires ever fix their formations?

I'm just gonna post screens of my EB2 Rome campaign
I know eb2 is sort of a badgame meme or someshit here because of how retardedly long it took them to make the mod. but i'm actually getting some pretty good enjoyment out of it in a way modded Rome1 or modded Rome 2 can't compare with. Flat land battles contain the best ai mods i've encountered for M2. The map reaches from spain and britannia all the way into the interior of India.
Siege battles are still hilariously broken to ai attackers though.
i'll be maybe posting deets on my current campaign so far. about 70 turns into it and slowly in the progress of conquering sicily from carthage and Syracuse .

I forgot from the last time I played that camillian hastati have almost no armor.

>>162866080
Sea battles are unlikely since they can't use Man O' War which is disappointing considering that it's a major thing for Dark Elves and Wood Elves. Better siege battles would be epic though with destructible walls or things along that line.

Growth doesn't need to be increased, they just need a second stack to start with. Growth works just fine for Beastmen because they've got two stacks which can be used to recruit different things or extra generals. With only one stack you're building up to get either units or generals and in the long term accumulated growth across all armies is less making the campaigns go more slowly. Coincidentally you can actually hire a second general with your starting growth.
Also the main way to fix Chaos Warriors is to ACTUALLY GIVE THEM REAL MECHANICS
As it is they play like reskinned Huns from Attila in the sense that they lack special mechanics. Their mechanics are supposed to be corruption and awakening tribes to do your bidding- but the game is bugged and Chaos doesn't leave chaos temples like the Beastmen do and awakening tribes is pointless because they all go for each other instead of attacking the mortals like you asked. Beastmen have beastpaths, dark moon and corruption and dwarfs have grudges and underway and confederation and empire has offices and confederation and wood elves have offices and confederation and underway and muh oak tree and vampires have corruption and raise dead and confederation and whatever and all their special mechanics work just fine.
It is only chaos whose mechanics are completely broken or useless and that makes the campaign a drag since you feel less like you're uniting the horde and gaining the favor of the dark gods and more like you're playing a shitty mod. It's not worth 8 dollars unless the units do it for you.

Flying units are basically cavalry whose models float way above everyone else and push every thing below them out of the way when they pass. They can only be melee attacked on the ground though so it's functional.
Wizards all use different varieties of magic missiles. They come in squads, eat shit in melee, and have different bigger or smaller or faster or more penetrating missiles. I saw in a YouTube video for the new update that Empire fire mages have these fat fireballs that explode above the enemy into a bunch of weaker flares.

I'm good at campaign management (accountant irl). I like diplomacy and creating vassals that automatically send death stacks to my enemy so I can have them (or me) ransacking undefended cities and pulling the enemy all over the map.

Often very passive because I try to work the diplomacy and honestly feel bad for warring peaceful nations, so I don't do it. I like to set up scenarios where I can justify burning down an entire city along with everyone in it, ie "they burned down one of mine" or they're muslims and thus deserve it.

I don't fucking know. I guess Tilea was because I attacked Estalia, their trade partner, but Estalia declared war on me first. One of the Bretonnian kingdoms just refused to accept an NAP with me after I rushed the Empire and Bretonnia diplomacy tech, and they brought another Bretonnian kingdom in despite that one being an ally. The dwarf hold, I don't even fucking know. I don't even remember discovering them, they just popped up, said "fuck you, tree", and sent two stacks for my Karak Hirn holds.
>>162880606
git gud
Wood Elves all about not having the diplomatic grace of North Korea like you apparently do. Focus on one enemy at a time, if you have to deny war requests from your allies if your allies are weak/minor factions.
What I did:
Focus on Bretts first, but only the ones you're at war with.
Move south into Estalia - NOT Tilea, the 400% income from ports upgrade is essential.
Get allies, use war co-ordination to get them to harass the enemy and take some pressure off
Don't upgrade the Oak of ages immediately since it sends beastmen stacks. They will appear anyways, but are scripted to generate newer stacks when you upgrade..
If you desparately need cash and are on good relations with your neighbors try sacking a far away enemy's city - it's unlikely he'll chase you all the way back to your territory. Maybe have a dedicated unit that just roams attacking defenseless towns, save one occupied replenishment province.
Be friendly to "shield of civilization" factions: Empire, far away Bretts, and Dwarfs are all closer to you than Vamps, Orcs, and Norscans, and all hate Beastmen who are your rivals.
Don't bother attacking the other elf settlements - they are extremely easy to confederate at oak of ages level 3, just try constantly to get treaties with them so they like you up until then. Only shitters who can't handle winning with basic units suggest attacking them.
Also remember that you don't have to attack settlements, you can just siege and wait them out. If a Bret army is in their castle and you besiege it, they might not sally even if they outnumber you. In that case, you can just sit there sieging it while another force goes around taking all their villages and the army is trapped in the castle.

I should also add: the AI is more likely to attack you/refuse agreements if you are weak. They still refuse if you're strong, but they're less likely to start a fight.

Durthu doesn't start at war with any Brets, though, just the Beastmemes and Worst Karak. Would I have an easier time if I played as the Wood Elves?
>>162881306
Shit mate, I guess I was luckier in my run.I was able to appease the other dawi by murdering goblins and I was able to keep the Empire's attention off me until I finished off the Southern Brets w/ the tech alone. Though I had a second (though small) army besides angry treedad's main army by turn 40-ish (maybe 50-ish) to help with my diplomacy.
Have you been killing beastmen or orcs? Maybe you're not getting all the plus diplo bonuses you should be getting or something.

>>162881324
You can go after Tilea if you want, as that's more Dosh, but just keep in mind that it'll keep at least a stack or two of your good units far away from home for a while.
Beastmen spawn constantly in the Estalia regions and will attack you at the drop of a hat, razing your outposts.
>>162881756
Maybe, I haven't played Durthu so I can't tell but I know his army is easier to use (pre-update). In his case you should probably focus on rushing the nearby dwarfs with the same mindset I told you about for Bretts, then go for the mountain gobs.
You may have had the right idea but just need to execute it quicker.
>>162881770
Skarsnik was the only greenskin near me, and that was a defensive war that I quickly won. Anytime I tried to fight the Beastmen, the Wood Elves with the red symbol would appear from nowhere and take the kill. And then they would send their agent into my land to lower my public order. They're also the only wood elves that refused a NAP with me. I don't like 'em.

>>162883960
I haven't played as them yet, but I've seen many people say that they play a lot differently than usual armies. You shouldn't go for up front battles, smashing your units into theirs. Keep your archers hidden, and kite the other army around as you pepper them with arrows, hit and run tactics, etc.
>>162883960
>that much melee
fuck son, what did you think was gonna happen?
no fewer than 6 archers, and no fewer than 4 mounted archers
Is AI aggresiveness handled more "fairly" on normal difficulty?
>>162883960
Wardancers are your best melee
Wildwood Rangers are more expensive than they're worth
Eternal guard are dogshit without shields
You need more archers, at least one spellcaster (life is best imo)
Need minimum 6 archers
>>162884310
Also mounted archers will kill their cygors pretty good
>Upgrade oak of ages once

>>162883960
Use your mages. especially the group heal from life (branchwraiths will always get access to this spell and branchwraiths are beast in combat, so use them where the combat will be the thickest)
Glade guard are great but Deepwood scouts and waywatchers can kite infantry around and deploy deep. which makes them great at whittling down an enemy infantry force as long as they don't have overwhelming artillery or cavalry. Just be careful while wood elf units have bonuses in trees, their arrows will still hit the trees. so if you're in the forest its best to be at the edge and just use the woods to get away.
Wild riders and Sisters of the thorn have great charges and utility. that and their fear causing and speed is great for rear charges.
Treemen are tanky as fuck. send one in and then have a whole bunch of archers shoot the melee he's in he'll take barely any damage as anything stuck around him will die. (bonus points if you cast life spells on him to make him even tougher)
You have a lot of useful tools but you're not using them in favor of a pure infantry build.
In the battle I'm posting it was on hard difficulty. One of the wardancers actually got 100 kills fighting chaos knights in the woods. Good shit.

I hadn't been able to build the buildings for those units yet, mostly. I had just upgraded the oak of ages and I didn't expect a flood of full unit high tier beastmen units. I guess nexttime i'll take the campaign a lot slower. I had just basic shit against that sort of stack.

well there's your problem.
Also in the early game becoming military allies with the other welf factions is important. this isn't like the other campaigns were you take over your neighbors using force.
They'll drag you into stupid wars. but then again that's just the elf experience of fighting a whole bunch of stupid battles.
Also wood elves unlike other factions don't suffer any penalties for releasing captives. Infact bloodshed will probably power your economy.
Also ambush is your friend.

>>162885694
I just wasn't expecting the fuck you stacks. Next time i'll upgrade the oak after I get more than 2 armies, with upgraded units. I wasn't using force, just kinda squatting and taking over the immediate destroyed areas, most of the elves were on my good side.

Glade guard are cheap but effective. You wan them with their armor piercing ammunition but if you have a mix thats fine (i avoided hagbane since i generally had them retreat behind my lines and when they do that they'll poison their own allies. (hagbane is better for the missile cav )
but I always had a couple of deepwood scouts or way watchers since they make great skirmishers either to lay ambush and draw the enemy army apart or as flankers since they can fire 360 on the move none of their time is wasted in getting into position behind the clash of armies. Way watchers have armor piercing at range while deepwood scouts can be given the arrows that fire twice with each arrow so they both have their own roles.
Also as a tip don't worry too much about defending outpost. You won't be able to afford too many armies to defend them all. Just focus on getting new ones just as long as you don't go negative amber.
You can always get those outpost back later. Just don't lose any of the core 5 provinces in athel loren.

I love Vlad so much.
Wasn't Vlad also a great leader for Sylvania? Made the peasant life far better there than anywhere else in the Empire, Bretonnia, Southern Realms, etc?
Anyone wanna co-op Clangrund/Welfs this weekend?
>>162885814
wow hell yeah it does you dipshit, people were furious about this game from the announcement alone, get your head out of your ass
I like how you lump in Rome 2 as if there werent people that put up with that shit but sperg out on warhammer for having zombies
>>162888148
Why do I love Vlad so much?
It's pretty simple when I think about it.
Vlad isn't just the best character in the Warhammer world, he might just be the greatest character of all time.
Just imaging him riding through the swamps of Sylvania, the wind in his hair, his mighty steed below him.
As he rides through the World's Edge Mountains, the Lahmians swoon at his very scent.
They know how he smells, the essence of his smell is sold in Marienburg under the the name of "Carstein Orgasm."
The very nature of Vlad is mystery.
Could he be playing a deeper game than even his creator realizes?
The answer is yes, he has transcended such boundaries as the written world, and has free will to do whatever he sees fit.
However, Vlad is filled with such guile, such arcane craft that he does not even use these powers.
Why, you might ask? You will never know, for the mind of the Vlad is not one that is easily penetrated.
Vlad is such a force of nature in his realm that nothing can truly touch him, the only thing keeping him bound to the page at all is his will to exist within the preordained boundaries of his world.
Vlad is not only beyond the comprehension of us, he exists within a plane of true focus and beauty.
Observe his playful smile, his gorgeous and rippling biceps, his gallant nose, and most importantly, his eyes.
His eyes, like pools of saffron, provide the only glimpse into the true machinations of Vlad. Do not stare into them. Many good men have gone mad in the attempt.
Vlad is not just a character, a formless collection of words and images, he is himself is the binding that holds the Warhammer world together.
Without Vlad, the entire Warhammer world, the entire Games Workshop as we know it crumbles.
The Reik would stop flowing without Vlad, Athel Loren would become a desolate crater, and Norsca would melt without his frosty gaze.
These are just of a few of the reasons why I like Vlad so much.resurrected just for you
Whoops.
War beasts are faster than my pistoliers.
Well so much for mimicking an M2 battle where I marched my desert cav right along behind the enemy.
>>162888148
Vlad was essentially the first leader of Vamp-controlled Sylvania, and it didn't have its now dark reputation then. His whole thing was attempting a coup of the Empire to install himself as Emperor, but giving up when his wife died in the effort. He did play up the aspects expected of a political leader, playing nice and acting regal with humans to secure their loyalty, as opposed to Mannfred who just wants to wrek shit because he's the best vamp of his time.
>>162888148
It wasnt far better than anywhere else, it was better than it was before because the previous elector count otto von drak was completely fucking bonkers and sadistic. Also zombies go around killing bandits and protecting farms which was neat
