How come the Empire had not already annexed Bretonnia?
Or is it something like Monty Python joke source for Franz? Bretonnia is literally the most backwards nation in the Old World. If Beastmen were just men, they would prob. be bretonnian.

Out of the units available now, what do you think you'd use? I'm legit curious.

>>163224082
Too busy with their own problems to ever unify into a large enough force and brets can hold their own.
>>
>>163224082
Because in the old Warhammer lore, the Bretonnian were always on the verge of conquering the Empire instead.

And, you know, have demi-god knights helps.

Bretts have divine intervention and shit to counter empire technology.

Also, the empire has so much shit of it's own to deal with they never have the time or means to fuck bretts up.

It's just like in the campaign where the empire starts off getting spit-roasted by rebels, beastmen and Orks.

there's like three different ways from the empire into bretonnia. Two are narrow passes through mountains with huge fortresses on either sides of the pass, the third is through marienberg and the surrounding swamp lands and after those swamp lands you reach the bretonnian capital.

Also having an absolutely retarded amount of fast heavily armored magically empowered knights at their disposal really helps too. The reasons bretonnia prays to the lady is because her powers manifest themselves quite literally where even the most basic of knights gain magical protections enough to deflect cannon balls and might blows from giants. And these aren't even the knights that the lady has personally favored.

Also bretonnia has a tsundere relationship with the empire.

Bretonnia hates the empire and thinks they're all peasants while the empire hates bretonnia and thinks they're all backwards but when ever a chaos invasion plows through the empire bretonnia always ALWAYS sends crusading armies to help save the empire.

>>
>>163224141
Well the only one's I know of are Wardancers. If modding for Warhammer is the same as Rome 2/Attilla, I could probably make some sort of mounted bowmen, generic infantry, with them, and maybe a vampire unit using the female vampire model but it's not enough to make a faction out of.

Hopefully Brettonia gives me a few options, but I really don't know anything about Warhammer so who knows.

bret peasants may be mutated by our standards but they're definitely not chaos mutant mutated.

Bret peasants are already in the game with their equipment. (either spears or halberds and shields or longbows) though their weapons are fairly varied with a halberd unit having bills and voulges and glaives, while a spear unit has spears and battle forks etc.

I guess we're getting peasants with halberds+shields in the full Brettonia release. They were in the Wood Elves pic with the dragon.
>>
>>163226107
We have those already in the game.
>>
>>163226107
i think some of the spearmen at arms models have weapons like battle forks and other spear-esque items, so that might be what you are seeing. At this point the additions to the bret roster seem to be grail reliquae & battle pilgrims, with updated versions of damsels (w/ some of the new lores like life/beasts) likely. There might be some sort of elite infantry along the lines of aspiring champs for chaos, but we will just have to wait and see what the festag days show us

>>163226169

Yes, and your gunners at the back are gonna do friendly fire btw

So I usually micro them around the back because they're the close-range gunners and not the actual gunners like the guy in the back right.
Never know how I should position them at the start 'cause they probably get picked off if I start them off more to the side or some shit?

It definitely hurts manticores, and probably cygors as well although i haven't fought a battle where I used savage dominion yet. The changes definitely helped the vamps though, as the new raise dead is the way it should've been from the beginning, allowing cheap spamable summons that can harass but get rekt by any decent unit in melee after a period of time
>>
It's a shame there's so few "big" or "Monster" units in the game. We have like Feral Chaos Manticores, Forest Dragons, Terrorgheists, and Beastmen? No chimeras, no solo wyverns (I know they aren't a thing in TT) none of those magma drake things the Dwarves have, no REAL dragons or phoenixes (hoping) , no mammoths. Shits kind of a shame.

Not to mention the magic system is garbage bar the 2 new lores, vamp ressurect magic, and Amber.

Guys I was just thinking will these expansions be standalone with all the dlc or will people have to buy the races? wont that tick a lot of people off? and not only that it will tick me off if I bought all these races and wasted my money when the next expansion will just have them all. I mean sooner or later the last game will be standalone and all this money spend on dlc races will be a waste.

Its a good change desu desu, summoning cygors especially was really poorly handled

They were a bit hammy with it and they made it from rigged to useless, because thats the only way CA does spell balancing, but the idea was nice, and it works much better for VC now.

>>163233685
Yes, the Lady of the Lake does empower her brave knights on the battlefield, so the man-worshipers of the Empire can see their cannons and guns become useless against even the lowest ranking knight. I'm not sure why you mentioned worshiping an elf, but at least you know the benefits of worshiping a real god instead of Shitmar.

That's why I like ogres as well. THey're the most neutral faction in the game - some work for Chaos, some work for Order in some way at times, but they always work for themselves. Fuck good and evil, it's all about being fat, happy, and rich.

Each Expandalone will only contain its own content, no previous DLC or main game content. Not sure how the campaign map will look in the raw expandalone.
They're releasing a "Definitive Edition" of Warhammer, which I expect will contain all the DLC packaged in.

How big of a unit list or models do they have? are they cool? right now there are only gaints in the game right? I didnt see them yet.

Don't worry, it's get more historically accurate later, since it depicts Boudica's siege and sacking of Rome later on.

very good. life has two great heal spells and shadows has wind of death lite alongside a great weapon dmg buff and a stationary vortex. Both lores have great passives too, with shadows giving a mapwide boost to all of your units speed, and life healing all of your units by a small amount whenever you cast a spell

They were actually a pretty popular army with lots of models.

They're basically all savage tribes that think gluttony and greed are virtues but there not that evil.
Tribes do tribe shit mostly and raid the guys next door, tons of ogres work as mercenaries and the empire used to be able to get ogre sell swords as monstrous infantry.

There was one ogre that managed to hold on to a whole empire of them and wanted to modernize them with state funded schooling for little kiddy ogres until the end times hit and the world blew up.

Lorewise, they were basically the perfect anti chaos soldier made by the old ones. Big, fast, tough as fuck, strong as fuck, could eat anything, highly resistant to chaos mutations.

Too bad Ogres are even more unstable and have less stustainable societies than Chaos-worshippers.

That's where the chaos dwarves and ogres live, you could easily place a few tribes on the edge of the badlands next to the greenskins.

It's this fire reptile thing that gets a bunch of crazy shit. Our group is mostly melee, it gets extra actions on its turn for every 'enemy' (read: party member) adjacent to it at the start of its turn And we have 4 melee people. Can auto shrug off status effects at the start of its turn in return for taking a slight amount of damage, makes everyone around it vulnerable to fire damage. Whenever it moves, it leaves an encounter long AoE wherever it moves that does fire damage if we start/enter our turns in it. Has massive close blast fire damage attacks that summon lesser beasts to fight for it. A whole bunch of crazy shit. Basically we can't out damage this thing before it barfs fire damage all over us.

I'm playing what essentially amounts to honorabru tribal warrior who won't abandon his comrades. So I can't/won't run.

I didn't even know that could happen.

Also, are chaos knights with lances even good? Whenever I use them, even charging into the rear, they always seem to get killed very quickly without doing any real damage. Meanwhile, the enemy chaos knights with swords stick around forever and do lots of damage even after they charge in.

In my current angry treedad game I've been playing around with very spread out formations. No standard line formation at all. The closest thing to line infantry I have is four treekin that I usually send up the center, but I never really put them in a straight line as is usual. I also usually have four EG, but they are always on the flanks to fight cav or to envelop.

In general vs AI (depending on who you are fighting) I find five guys with shields and decent staying power to be enough. Not including charge heavy infantry or melee/skirmishers as you mentioned on the flanks. Eight seems quite excessive to me. I would only think to bring that much if I tried Orcs (which I haven't yet).

I always thought the Greenskin leadership thing was a meme, but my guys routed over and over again. All in all I'm pretty proud of how well they performed, Black Orcs slap stuntie shit. If I hadn't assassinated Thorgrim right before this I probably would've lost.

Nah man, what I need is a WAAGH! but I'll never get one because I'm at war with three dorf factions and I always barely manage to scrape out a Pyrrhic victory. I'm hoping now Thorgrim will want peace, but not before I take a couple of his settlements as a consolation prize.

Fuck the stunties.

Just remember that Welfs have fast infantry that let them do gimmicky shit like this. Also, angry treedad + monstrous infantry allow me to shove aside any line of infantry the AI throws at me for the most part without needing an anvil to hold 'em down.

Empire is so versatile though, I bet you could do it. I would go cav heavy though. Or at least wait until I can get a proper flying hitsquad going. I tend to need my Wild Riders to fill in gaps to avoid getting outflanked while slower forces move in to fill in the hole. You'll most likely need something similar even moreso than Welfs do due to the aforementioned speed difference.

honestly, the big problem with chaos is that whoever at CA designed them didn't understand horde mechanics, separating every single unit into its own building was a terrible idea, especially since the balance is so shitty, it is always the best option to just rush the chosen building, get 20 of them, and cntr-G, right click on the enemy

hordes in Attila were far better designed since all the units were grouped into 2-3 buildings, so you had far more variety in your stacks

Also I know if you have all 3 parts you get a mega awesome grand campaign with all the places, but I'm not sure what the second game will add for the first

>literally made to be better at everything than humans, dwarves
Fuck Dwarfs but Elves get btfo regarding the impenetrable wall of dwarfen steel and muscle and their superior artillery.
Humans should also have the edge with artillery and being better allrounders.
Wood Elves should be shooty glass cannons, High Elves melee monster glass cannons and Dark Elves a bit of both and even more glass cannon-y.

A cannonball into a rank of Elves should leave only red mist.

Is it worth getting the Razorgor Chariot for Beastlords? How does it perform in sieges?

Guys the next historical TW game will be Bronze Age for sure.
Think about it:

>nice aesthetics
>unique styles of warfare based around chariots and more
>famous and iconic civilizations like Egypt, Assyria, Jews and Sumeria
>actually being the guy who builds all those ancient wonders of the world like the Pyramids or Hanging Gardens
>features CA's beloved late-game mechanic of the world getting rekt by an invader in the form of Sea Peoples
>first time in the series the invader will be naval based
>can even add in some pseudo magical events like plagues and flavor it as an act of the gods

Im copy pasting

So i read some comments on russian tw forum and i found some interesting rumor. I will translate what a user has written there No one is thinking to close TW series. In fact they bring a majority of money from PC segment for SEGA. Right now CA has problems with uniting first and the second part of TW:Warhammer. So far they couldn't do this but solving this problem will open a way for the new historic title (without that bug problems like it was in Empire) (might mean new historic title is 16 centuary+) They were working on unreleased DLC for Rome2/Attila but it was cancelled because CA was not sure it will release next Warhammer titles in time due to solving this problem of unifying the game.

No. They should never be in combat. You form your army up, let the lines connect in melee, and park your magical aura machines behind your side of the lines. Coupled with a Vamp spellcaster spamming IoN with his passive regen skills you get a nigh unkillable anvil. If they removed the regen cap it would probably hold forever.
>>
>>163252847
park them behind your units, or send them to reinforce the main line if and only if you are confident you can pull them off and there's no heroes or big monsters around

they are not good for fighting

>>
>>163252847
don't give attack orders to your corpse carts, just have them sit directly behind/inside your main line so that they give their bonuses to as many different units as possible. Mortis engines can actually be used as chariots semi-effectively, but its still best to park them where their aoe damage effect can hit as many enemy units as possible

>>163223887
Ive been reading Tales from the Old world. Theres lots of mentions of Corn. Also, the Skaven farm Black Corn in skavenblight. My headcannon is that Black corn and the farmed corn are both derived from the same corn missing link, but one has been selected to be palatable for Brettonian lords and the other has been selected to survive the HOrrific Marshes around skavenblight+ constant over farming
>>
>>163224082
At one point in Empire history they had conquered parts of Brettonia, but then the age of three Emperors happened and they lost the territory. The Empire has too many internal disagreements and external threats to expand much in the time the game is set, but since their technology clearly advances over time perhaps that could change. After the storm of chaos, it was looking like Nordland and Ostermark were going to eat up Ostland and maybe Hochland.
>>
>>163253182
Corn as in grain, you dolt.
>>
>>163252058
Of course they have problems. The Warscape is so shit that it won't be possible to just add new lands to the campaign map as it is impossible for modders since Empire. The only thing that they can do if they want to expand it is to rewrite the core game.

This campaign really isn't going like I expected it to

The Empire and Brettonia got absolutely fucked somehow, the Dwarfs basically killed all the Greenskins before I even got to Eight Peaks, Schwartzhafen is doing better than VC, I'm pretty sure the entire north and west humans got wiped out by Chaos and Beastmen, and I was forced to eradicate the Wood Elves because they kept being aggressive cunts. Also the Dwarfs won't accept military alliance despite loving me so I'm probably going to have to have a big fucking civil war at some point.

Shit Elves were probably the reason Empire and Bretonnia got fucked. Good job removing their filth.
Thorgrim usually does pretty well in the Badlands, so that's normal.

>that Schwartzhafen
What the fuck though? I didn't even think that was possible, considering they're passive as shit AND start with a tiny city surrounded by enemies.
>>
>>163254880
>Schwartzhafen
In my first Empire campaign they ruled half the Empire with VC ruling about a third.
I expanded into Bretonnia and in the end started spitroasting the two Vampire-chan's with help of based Dwarfs
>>
>>163254449
OK cool. Thanks. One more question - is it possible to change the general's unit without suiciding him?
>>
>>163254880
I guess the humans were all busy fighting each other and the VC were too busy fighting the Dwarfs. Empire keeps sending armies over to the west for no reason, they're not even at war with any of the Bretons. Still don't know why the Dwarfs won't go for a military alliance though, I'm at 230 friendship rating and we have all the same enemies.

SECOND GAME WHEN!

AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>
>>163255487
I played HEs from 2002 until they canned WHFB.
I never read through the fluff section because I knew it was Mat Ward and had long since learned to stay away (his attempts at writing in both the Necron and the BA codecis is beyond cringy).
The one exception was reading up on the War of the Beard, after a friend tipped me off, only to discover that Mat thought the HE and Dwarfs having different accounts of the events would be to confusing for his audience, so he just went with the Dwarf version and turned Caledor II into a fucking imbecile.
After that I did not feel the need to continue.
>>
>>163255902
BA codex wasn't that bad once we know necrons were now tomb kings IN SPESS and not just terminators.
Also his codexes were balanced against each other so you just needed to update more frequently and it would be a good game
Although I can be sure you're an old vet because you're having a hissy fit over new fluff, surprise surprise they can change it to how they like and your head canon was never canon

But that's not how that works.
THe Chaos God's can't just take mortal souls, they have to be offered, unless you are born chaotic like the beastmen. That's why Chaos warriors get rewarded with strengtgh and armour, because they traded in their soul, which is actually worth a fair deal to the gods.

There were even Druchii who got the blessing of Slaanesh, by BARTERING their souls, because Slaanesh can't just take them willy nilly.
>>
>>163256274
Skaven.
>>
>>163256137
The rules were fine, pretty good even and I agree that the newcron concept is more entertaining than just killerbots, but every story in both books read like some 12 year old's first warhammer story.

ANd I don't mind new fluff; it's just the shitting all over established fluff that irks me.

Morghur was a new addition in Beasts of Chaos and he fleshed out the world a bit more and created a neat dynamic between him and Ariel.

Meanwhile Mat ward throws out decades of established lore for the sake of making WHFB elves more grimdark, regardless of the universe's established rule.

I primarily play them with both stacks, but keeping my main character stack as a real army, and the other as a very small raid/bait force
I set up Hidden Encampment on my main force inside reinforce range of my smaller stack doing a raid. Almost always baits out the enemy army, they get inside range, they discover my hidden encampment force, have a panic, and on my turn I attack. Works great.

Skill Development
Blue line skills: I always get 3 ticks of Blessed By Evil and Children of Chaos, and at least one tick in Feasting Upon Man and Lightning Strike

Notes:
AI forgets you exist if you go Hidden Encampment and don't get discovered. Running out of their line of discovery sight and encamping is a great way to take the pressure off. AI technically has infinite line of sight, but won't uncover you from hiding unless close enough to roll to discover.

Absolutely, upkeep is a delicate balancing act early on. Raid stance is a good friend. Try to build up your Beastiness meter and get a brayherd, they usually have some good units that you can just throw into meat grinders as necessary.
Once you've got good growth and developed your horde up to par, you can buy the upkeep reduction building and then go huge with elites.

Sup lads, about to start up an Angrund campaign. Do I use Rangers or Quarrelers? Quarrelers seem altogether better since they are decent in melee and, because Clan Angrund is forced to have a relatively small army for a while, the utility from the quarrelers seems superior to the rangers.

Anyone have a defense of rangers? Honestly would rather use them because they look cool.

pfft, why are you even complaining, kid?

let me tell you a story. so i installed the "better ai mod" that promised better ai and harder chaos. "no bother, i thought". well as mod promised when i hit the imperium 7 chaos has come. it was just 3 stacks, except those were filled with chaos knights and the chosen. so long story short, they burn down kislev and ostland in a blaze, i give battle with literally everything i have, they wipe loads of my swordsmen, but i manage to kill the bastards. have you ever fought an army that has 16 chaos knight detachments, by the way? anyway, i end the turn.
the very next turn chaos comes again.
it's 3 similar stacks with knights and shit that go straight for now mine ostland. and my army's in tatters. so they siege wolfenburg, attack me, and i hold the castle.
the very next fucking turn chaos comes again. now, this was turn 60, and 3 chaos stacks would continue to respawn every time until turn 150, when archaeon came with 8 armies FILLED with fucking aspiring champions, chaos knights, gorebeasts and whatnot.

and then as the last army of chaos was wiped from the face of the world a silence fell.

This is with the mod you are talking about, and on legendary. I took my time because I got raped in the early game by elves and empire. So I just garrisoned half a stack at Karak Norn and took Skarsnik on an expedition to retake Karak Eight Peaks. After a glorious battle at around turn 170 this is where I'm at. Not tryharding really, I just wanted to go with the flow.

and since everyone "Loves" vampire its impossible to keep allies.

>>
>>163277525
To get rid of the dwarves you need to secure yourself Silvania, move towards the Border Princes and from there hit their "Valley" areas. Let them come to you after you crushed their puny garrisons, giving the Greenskins breath and allowing them to whipe out the beards for you.
Once that is done either keep a perpetual war with Greenskins to raise them after supposedly easy battles or just keep their friendship since they'll love you for attacking the stunties.

Personally I usually attack the greenskins after taking position beyond the mountain pass, as that improves my relationships with everyone else and I can stretch southwards to Tilea/Estalia while waiting for Chaos to show up and rape the Empire.

Battle difficulty can be changed in the options menu. Campaign difficulty is set when you start a new game.

So does battle difficulty affect AI or not?
>>
>>163279475

Just a quick fix:

>Give him his magic hat sooner & Skullmuncha
>Replace starting units with less shit ones
>Throw out his shitty campaign effects and replace them with something more flavorful
>Maybe allow him to raise undead units???
>>
>>163279442

This is actually pretty good, +10 to all buildings factionwide might be a biiiiit much though. It basically be like ERE by the time you capped enough settlements that your economy would be fucking nuts with that.

Too bad CA will literally never touch vanilla lords.

>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.

No, CA's focus seems to be on that multiplayer TW and Warhammer.

Maybe when the Brets are released we can actually get properly reskinned Southern Realms. They have no excuse unless GW is stopping them.

What could they possibly do? I can only see something set in the medieval period at this point.
>>
>>163281942
belegars ghost dads are pretty close to being legendary heroes.

but Having the green knight be the first and opening it up with krell would make sense especially if they fix up kemmler a bit and make him more bretonnia focused.
>>
>>163285627
Why? They need to trust you to let you march an army through their lands after all. It's far less trivial than a trade agreement.
>>
>>163284790
It feels a bit superficial in places, but I still like it after basically no campaign micromanagement of Total Warhams.
