Alright fellow generals, what should I do? Turn 40.

1. Crusade into sylvania.
I actually haven't unlocked volkmar yet, so this doesn't seem appropriate to go in without him, plus I'll have to de corrupt those lands.

2. Unite Averland
Fought a war with them in the past but ended up making peace. I want those lands.

3. Crusade against the wood elves
The wood elves are starting to blob into bretonnia and I don't like it. I normally try to vassalize louen since he can confederate the other bretons, but he is just sitting there atm. Should I vassalize the wood elves instead? They are actually competent, aggressive, and field a ton of armies. I have the least experience fighting them though.

>>163291224

Either deal with the vamps or neet elves.

From my experience, neet elves become a much larger threat than vamps in the endgame thougj.

Remove vamps. Fill their lands with Warrior priests and purge it. Have Volkmar lead the crusade.

Wine buildings in Stirland and Sylvania gives a lot of income in trade agreements.

X for Elf Annihilation Campaign.

Wading into Wood Elves territory will give your armies tons of attrition, so move fast and hit hard. Honestly I hate fighting the Wood Elves as Empire so I'd run in there, sack all the buildings for huge profits, then raze that fat fucking Oak to the ground.

>>163291747

I dont know to be honest, think they have some hidden corruption reducal, at least every warrior priest ever in my vamp territory seems to have it. But yeah, they can spec for it as well.

You can try to rush Kislev for some nice money. Or you could do the long boring Norscan campaign. Awake any possible factions and declare war on them right away to vassalize them(this prevents them from declaring war on your future allies or vassals)

Chosokabe is the easiest campaign because they improve the already incredibly dominant archers. You can easily win a siege defense with minimal effort by just lining every wall with yumis to begin with, and the Chosokabe make it just that much easier.

I've started playing FotS with Aizu on VH and I have some questions:
How do I manage economy? Everything's pretty expensive and I'm forced to have small armies in order not to cripple my clan's revenue, but having small armies slows me too much and results in me being overwhelmed by the AI.
Diplomacy is pretty fucked, I constantly have allies changing allegiance and turning into enemies, how do I play around that?

If Brets ever get their own mini-campaign then they might get a larger map.

The GC map will already be the largest map CA has ever made if they really are able to follow up on their promise of combining the maps of all three games/expansions.

GC maps have never been intended in any Total War game to encompass everything, only the most important cities get included. I'm not against Brets getting bigger as they expand the map if CA thinks it's a good idea, but making the map bigger for the sake of making it bigger will likely never happen.

Try to confederate Stirland. If Averland is on bad terms with you and deteriorating then wait it out, build your economy and fight then when they come for you. Ignore vamps for now but keep an army near the border if you can, they are unpredictable. Wood elves need to be fucked hard at some point but a foreign crusade into the forest will be costly and could leave you weak at home for almost nothing as they aren't really your problem yet. Either way keep a good stack at home to deter the curious. The wealth that at least wissenland would bring in is worth taking on Averland for. The wood elves will become your problem after them anyway and if you can get them committed to fighting the bretons first then it will be easier. Don't be America and start an unnecessary foreign war.

>>163295031

It's going to be necessary, otherwise the Bretonnia campaign will only ever play out in 1-2 ways. With Wood Elves, Beastmen, and Belegar's clan the Bretonnia area is quickly becoming overcrowded.

There needs to be more area for the Horde factions to use, and one or two Orc clans need to be added in, half of Bretonnian lore is about riding down thousands of Greenskins on horseback.

CA doesn't necessarily care about that. Brets will survive when the player plays as them and they can die every other time. Maybe they'll try to patch it, but CA rarely puts that much effort into making the GC historical/lore accurate. Shit, there have been times through Rome 2's lifespan when Roma would never form the empire cause another Italian power ate them.

Like I said, I'm not against it. Just don't get your hopes up unless it really is that broken that CA must fix it such as it was with the above example in Rome 2.

>>163295937
I'm sorry I don't like playing the same boring line battle after the same boring line battle.

Early era empire can be fun since artillery is still somewhat shitty and cav is still not quite that shitty. But once artillery gets too good it just feels like I'm playing the same battle over and over.

>>163296436
That's fair, but I still think the GC should at least try to follow the historical route without player intervention. It should be the player that causes the alternative history not the AI being that bad.

What we really need is an ahistorical option like Paradox Interactive has in some of their games.

>Consolidate buildings so you can get units quicker and have more variety.
>Buff Sigvald and Archaeon by a bit.

they've been buffed actually, the only problem with Chaos is that some of their units are severely underpowered compared to other chaos units, and since each one has their own building you never get them, lower upkeep doesn't matter when population is the biggest bottleneck, I'd rather rush the chosen building, then waste pop and slots on trolls for example

every other feature is fine, and people complaining about them are just casuals who want to turtle with every single faction for about 200 turns and then steamroll the map with 2 elite stacks

Can't even imagine how annoying Chaos must be.I can barely afford 3 stacks of ok units, and need them together to win sieges while cuckmans just keep rebuilding

That said, holy shit, beastmen with LL going -4 siege, a brayfag with -4 siege as well as tech giving - 2 siege makes me actually able to take settlements within 2 turns (thus redusing their units to 1/4), 4 if i want to starve the dumbasses out

Still don't help as humans are fucking rabbits when it comes to settlement.

This gives me an idea. No resettlement in chaos 75+ regions.

Chaos isn't even that annoying.

Once you get 3 stacks rolling you're razing shit so fast that they don't have time to rebuild shit, and its easier to do damage control to wipe out factions.

As far as upkeep goes. don't worry about it. As long as you're sacking enough to pay for your armies you're golden.

That's shit. I want to see the map covered in 100% chaos. Why can't i have this?

Why can't my collective 19+ chaos spreading fags actually make a region 100%? at 85 it slows down way too much, and at 90, i would need to have all my chaos spreaders there (with no other races) for 1000 turns to get it at 100%..

Crossbows are glorious against mobbed enemies

Just punch a hole in the wall, send your most durable unit(s) to plug the breach and use your missile units to shoot the nearest enemy in the face

They will surge toward you like lemmings, exhausting themselves while you pump volley after volley right into the middle of them

Your holding units will get mauled but you'll absolutely slaughter them as they try to get at you

Use fast cav to bait his catapults, just run around constantly changing directions
Once the catapults are out of artillery he will march towards you
Use foot archers backed up by pikes/spearmen to deal with his horse archers
Alternatively, use your cavalry to cast a net around his archers and force them into your spearmen ie run them all the away around to the back and sides to try so they can't flee in any direction without getting caught
Your army composition will have to change, only bring enough heavy infantry to deal with their heavy infantry (which is fucking bullshit how good they are btw)

I already do all of this, the casualities are still insane! The catapults are rather easy to deal with, its just those horse archers! They just always slip away somehow, killing off my cavalry.

You're gonna have casualties either way but if you're really struggling try to bait them into attacking settlements. A few cheap shit pikes/spears and some archers later and goodbye /mlp/

>>163306901
Rockets slaughter enemy archers because they have like 3-400 weapon strength (i forget) and the high amount of rockets just bounce the models all over the place so maybe 20% of the unit is able to shoot. If you're trying to use them as a counter to melee units you deserve to lose.
The long range is also useful for dislodging any shithead who camps away, meaning every battle you fight turns into a defensive battle and they have to come to you.
Think outside the box a bit if you want to be a trve vnderstander

It's okay, I spent my entire game trying to get an alliance between men and elves (VH) and they never accepted until after I solo'd Warherd and Warrios of Chaos and beat the campaign.
I'm also a fag who likes waifu and white knight shit so I like to imagine our peoples as being close.

Interestingly enough the Welfs who didn't like me kept sending stacks up to fight against all the norse tribes and butchering them, their agents also swarmed the empire killing any chaos agents they could find. They didn't even have military access.
Dwarfs on the other hand wanted an alliance every turn but despite having access never sent a single unit to fight any chaos or norscan tribe, even though they had more men than me. Instead they declared war on Tilea and the Border Princes, then after the End Times attacked the wood elves.

They're fucking cunts, them and their stupid book, and they're paying heavy for it.

It's just Empire propaganda. They cannot handle the fact that a human goddess with big tits favors the Bretonnians.

Shit is on fire. Orcs and VC just raping everything. What's worse is that Brettonia thought this would be an ideal time to DOW Estalia. Have 1600 soldiers over 4 armies to deal with 4 orcs armies, 3 VC armies with end game units.

>>163311793

Empire commoners still look pretty bad most of the time.

Bret peasants have little to no human rights, they aren't even allowed to pray to their elven goddess.

>>163311793

I bet an Elven Goddess must feel euphoria that another major race is worshipping her on a significant scale.

Just like all elves, she probably fucks Louen and Guiles on the regular after the End Times now.

>>163311929
Greenskins ain't too big of a threat unless they confederate nearby provinces, they usually get shit on by dwarfs

>>163312295
Well, she came to the Bretonnians first and gave them her blessing so that they could fight back Greenskins. They worshiped her because she was giving them the power to save their land.

They're doing better than the """"""""""""""Empire of Man"""""""""""""" that's for sure

>>163312828
Maybe if the stunted ones accepted the blessing of the Lady of the Lake, they could finally reclaim lost Karaks.

>>163313045

>accepting the blessings of the """""""""""lady"""""""""" of the lake

I don't think so laddie.

>>163313009
Empire is literally a buffer zone between them and all the actual world ending shit so yeah

>>163313265
Empire could easily destroy their threats if they accepted the blessing of the Lady of the Lake.

>>163312897
It's been a while but if I'm remembering right it's a lot more streamlined. You don't have to deal with sanitation/squalor/fertility and the buildings aren't as obtuse as Rome 2. I also like the interface better though that's subjective.

>>163295295

Horde factions don't settle in this game and they basically represent uncivilizable races or races which are actual hordes- that is, an endless army coming to buttfuck civilization. This is different from Attila where the Huns and Goths and White Huns were all still humans with families and shit. The Chaos Warriors have rape slaves, but growth for the Chaos Warriors mostly represents guys flocking to the banners of Archaon rather than vikingesses popping out little Archaons.

It is unlikely that the Bretonnian-Wood Elf "problems" will be patched either- the Wood Elves are canonically said to be huge dicks who rampage and fuck everyone over because they feel entitled to be dicks and are only good because they oppose Chaos as opposed to Dwarfs and Humans who at least give rational reasons for why they've decided to shit on you. Wood Elves killing off the Bretonnians is probably WAD, or at least not too far off from how CA imagined Wood Elf-Human relations would be.

The Grombrindal event was probably planned before Age of Sigmar was a thing, since we know that CA got the Warhammer Fantasy license back in 2013. So originally all the ads for "YOU'VE PLAYED THE GAME, NOW BUY THE MODELS" were for Warhammer Fantasy. But then Age of Sigmar happened. The Grombrindal event was still a thing because GW thought that maybe we would want some Age of Sigmar models.

The problem with Chaos is that the mechanics it is supposed to have either don't work or are stupid

Attrition is pointless for example
There is no reason to awaken tribes except to get Sigvald since even if you vassalize them they can just break the vassalization and declare war on you, meaning you might end up with Sarls and Aeslings sending stacks at you from the north while Big Bird and the Empire are coming at you from other directions. Annoying.

Razing settlements is supposed to create a Chaos edifice which causes more Chaos Corruption in a province- but that is just plain broken, it doesn't do anything.

On top of this people don't understand that having two hordes to start with is better than one- maybe even CA doesn't understand this. Beastmen I believe are more enjoyable for most people because both their mechanics all work, because there are no stupid mechanics like attrition (which would probably make more sense for Beastmen since their strategy relies on smaller scale raiding of undefended settlements anyway and Beastmen are more fractious) and most importantly because Beastmen not only start with two hordes instead of one but also get more bonuses to growth, allowing them to get where they need to be much more quickly. Growth across all your hordes is a good thing, the fact that Chaos starts with only one horde means that unless you hire a second lord on the first turn your overall growth will be much lower than that of Beastmen and it'll take a lot longer to get multiple hordes filled with Chaos Warriors and Hellcannons rolling around the map.

I don't think they'll even shoot unless it's direct line of sight. But if you had a unit of crossbowmen, probably not, and if your handgunners shoot, they also will probably not shoot your own dudes.
So, maybe.
