How in the actual fuck have you kept watching that garbage?

The series absolutely nosedived in quality after the first season and since season 3 it has been practically burrowing through the earth's crust, it's reaching the fucking molten core at this point.

It's some of the worst television currently airing outside of Reality TV.

shame how potential great storylines have come and gone. Last season everyone looked forward to Euron and then it was shit, season before it was Stannis then it was shit. Wonder what they'll ruin next?

>>163521805
I managed to keep watching up to the part where a mob of knife wielding civilians manage to overwhelm and slaughter a well-sized group of Unsullied in a tight hallway, with the episode ending with Barristan Selmy getting made to look like a bitch.

Thank god I quit before the whole shitshow with Stannis

>>163521912
The battles are a bit too arcadey.

The campaign map often leaves you with nothing to do cause apart from characters everything is simplified.

Sometimes it feels small cause if you confederate and conquer a couple of factions, you suddenly own a large chunk of the map.

You are better off waiting till its complete and buying everything at a discount.

>>163522247
>Stannis
they have butchered him since the first episode, anybody who thought that would be good clearly doesn't understand D&D's bizzare hate boner for him. I only looked forward to how blatantly they would try to paint him as the bad guy.

>>163521978

Oh god I know.

It's frankly even worse being a bookfag.

The books aren't really anything above middling genre-schlock, but they're still on a level of competency so far about the show that I don't know how the showrunners can read their own scripts and not kill themselves.

Dany in the books still kinda just stumbles around and gets lucky a lot, but at least the reader UNDERSTANDS that that's what's happening, we know, because we can see inside her head, that she really is a scared little girl who has basically no fucking clue what she's doing.

In the show she's "OMG such a badass!!!!!" and we're supposed to believe that her successes are actually to her own credit and not just a combination of blind-luck and help from more competent people.

The fact that the show attempts to make fucking Cersei, one of the most fundamentally morally bankrupt, hypocritical characters in all of fictions sympathetic on some level pretty much tells it all. Especially when compared to how Stannis was treated.

They're playing hard to the "Stronk independent womyn" crowd that doesn't give a shit about quality.

It's probably hard if you have serious autism like most modding teams.
I mean those guys making the middle ages mod for Attila should've just looked at the M2 campaign and did it like CA.
Place factions.
Give factions 3-4 generals with armies.
Put basic buildings into each settlement and maybe something upgraded in the capitals.
Create small family trees consisting of the leader, his heir and maybe one or two siblings.
Adjust diplomatic relations like wars, client states or vassals.

Done and release. Then you can add different extended layers of autims every patch. But no they probably want to have the entire Capetian dynasty from the beginning recreated on release.

I wouldn't say he was butchered, it was only the parts after the books ended that they fucked him over completely. He was cast well and they put a lot of budget into his scenes.

>>163522403
Yea they've almost completely sold out catering to the female audience. Most of the remaining protagonists wield an axe wound.

Dare they not kill em off when even implying one of em got raped drives the sjws into a rage.

And now that Trump has won, the showrunners will try even harder to push the strong womyn angle so all the leftist crybabies have something to cheer about.

Why did they go back to the ugly as fuck Rome 2 settlement icons in Warhammer? I bought Age of Charlesbarkley and the UI is really nicely detailed in that, where as Warhammer feels like a shitty utilitarian after thought, on top of being ugly as sin.

I really hope now that CA is swimming in dosh will improve a lot of that sort of thing in the sequel. Warhammer is just an ugly game to look at.

>after thought

you mean like most of the game? the base game was a pile of warm piss and the dlc have been paper towels, it sopped up a lot of the piss sure but now you just have a pile of pissy paper towels.

ill admit i gave it a pass initially because i love whfb but so much about it feels like 5 steps backwards 1 step forward. even after all of this time i cant look past its glaring flaws

would it have killed them add in the dynamic cities from yanno their last 2 fucking titles? hoveldorf sucks. the map in general is one greengrey shit heap, the is some how dumber, building menus and choices suck dick for every race, the campaign pacing sucks, diplomacy keeps getting worse.

>>163523209

That's why I said, on release. It's the vanilla factions that still have gaps to fill. The DLC has been getting progressively more complete as time goes on.

>>163523864

>It's the vanilla factions that still have gaps to fill

Like?

I know Chaos is missing a bunch of shit since they're basically the messiest faction from the tabletop with a billion different monsters and access to chaos variation of shit like Ogres, but what are the other factions actually missing?

Like, literally who the fuck cares if some generic lords and heroes are missing.

They're missing two.

One of which is just a faster four-armed giant which the faction loses nothing by not getting.

The other of which, while it does fulfill a sorta unique role in the faction, is also dumb as fuck and no one liked it when it was added to the newest Beastmen armybook (pic related)

>>163525821

>I think that looks cool as fuck

There's no accounting for taste I suppose

The Elves are missing 2 generic heroes and 1 generic Lord

No actual units.

>>163525821
https://1d4chan.org/wiki/Category:Warhammer/Tactics

Pick the race of choice, scroll through the list, and compare it to what they have in TWW. There are surprisingly few holes.

>>163525829
Wouldn't make sense for Reikland.

>>163526201
well you are playing as the empire and reiksguards are too easily available compared to Knights of the blazing sun.

>>163525821
Elves and VC are missing some heroes and the coven throne. I suspect they'll do a monster DLC for stuff like jabberslythe, cockatrice, mutalith vortex beat and gorebeast since GW did a similar boxed set.

>>163526276
They're easily available because you are playing as the Reikland prince

>>163526276
You start in Reikland. As a Reikland prince and emperor, choosing between reiksguard and blazing suns wouldn't happen.

You should make this mod just for the option(the more mod options the better). It should be a seperate mod though(unless that would cause serious problems)

I'm entirely too excited. I've been a fanboy for nearly twenty years and they're finally getting an actual honest to god decent representation on something other than the tabletop.

Why do blazing sun knights have flaming lances? Is this cannon?

>>163527596
I also feel it is pretty overrated. It is also very outdated. Even traits aren't fixed.

>>163527652
they are in the blood bowl games

>>163527697
>Is this cannon?

No its long sticks imbued with magical fire.

>>163527697

No, but if they didn't have some unique gimmick there would be no point to them even being there.

Incidentally, this is why the people calling for all the other knightly orders to be added are idiots.

Frankly I'm more annoyed by the fact that they don't have unique voice lines.

>>163527697
Knights of the Blazing Sun are arguably the greatest knights in the Empire. Favored by Myrmidia, many warriors are able to set their weapons ablaze with immolating fire, slaying their enemies for the Goddess of War.

>>163523149
>2 knightly orders out of the dozens established
Established in lore maybe, the only one with rules missing from the game are knights of the white wolf. Even saying they are established in lore is real fuckin liberal use of the word established. Named in some random flavor text blurb in a single edition as a misprint that was errata'd is barely establishing them
>bloat bloat bloat
zzz

everything else is legit shitty, though the flc has been nice and i guess anything relating to chaos is being held on for the actual chaos daemons release

Also they seriously need to rework magic from the ground up before bothering with sorceror and shaman lords. Something has to be done with the fucking skills to set them apart from the heroes and furthermore separate the LLs from the lords.

Poor fucking heinrich and gelt

>>163527810
>they don't have unique voice lines

>>163527697
No. They're not magic powered in any way or holy undead purgers as the name and the grim and grave release or being a volkmar starting unit alongside flagellants would imply. They are just knights who dedicated ot Myrmidia after a supposed miracle freak accident saved their asses during a war. The goddess of strategy's emblem is a sun that they put on all their shit. That's about it. Something about mirror shields to blind people, CA decided that was magic resistance for some reason and gave them fire lances because blazing sun sounds cool.

>>163528147
Because sorcerer lords in-game are pretty consistently shit and pointless and should rightly remain relegated to the hero slot.

>>163528034
Looks cool

They should ride giant wolves, not the dingy goblin ones

>>163528221
Are you a teenager? You write like one.

Great Bray Shaman is a lord-level spellcaster. While the doombull is literally just "Gorebull but larger".

GBS would actually add something to the faction: spellcaster lords. While Doombull would just be another combat lord like the Beastlord.

>>163528424
y-you're a teenager

>>163528034
well they do use hammers, thats unique enough i guess

some proper melee cav

>>163528416
The whole "blazing sun" thing has just been embellished over time. I'm ok with them having flaming attacks, it's the logical conclusion to them constantly getting slightly different fluff.

I'm also fine with it, it's cool as shit and I have a hardon for paladins. I totally agree with that other guy that without a gimmick there really is no point in including any of the knightly orders.

>>163533597

They've been perfectly straight about what happened with Chaos

Chaos was always going to be in the game but as an AI only unfinished faction à la Bretonnia

CA then convinced Sega to give them the time and budget to finish Chaos up but they were given it on the condition of Chaos becoming a pre-order DLC.

Did the steam store die or what?

>>163533597
wait so they said it was cut at first then they said it wasn't cut but then they said it was just under developed?
Do you have links to the last 2 statements? cause I think I remember them saying something about cut-content but I don't remember them saying anything about things being under developed.
then again I don't pay much attention to the news.

So I was playing with Morghur and I decided to try out Harpies. Just how good are they as a unit? I stuck four of them in a pitched battle, 2 attacking a Dwarven Lord, and two fighting two units of Quarrellers alone. They didn't die or rout at all like I expected them too, I figured they would melt like Fel Bats.

Because you lack the raw power of other factions to take them on one on one. And as you're the empire you will be one of the first to encounter chaos, and chosen.

>>163538247
you only need lighting strike if you are playing on very hard or higher and each ai faction magically spawns stacks and stacks of units. You only need charge bonus and weapon strength on franz. honest steel in the red tree is super broken so you can get that if you are having trouble

I've slowly come to realize that the human factions in Warhammer are about as effective as an average crusade in regards to not fucking themselves over

>>163538467
Lightning strike is "mandatory" for every faction because it makes the game ten times easier. AI never takes ls into account and usually decides to attack by bunching up all of it's weak stacks together, making it trivially easy to pick them off one by one and eventually wipe their entire army in a couple of turns.

This skill isn't even OP, it's completely broken.

also has a golden cock

wearing a mask but it's possible he's got metal mixed into his skin from the accident.

>>163540390
Nobody really knows.

Some say a spell went wrong and turned him metal, hence wearing a mask.

>>163540310
SSD you donut. Upgrade of the century.

Left intentionally obscure in a "ha ha he totally didn't fuck up and actually turn his face in to gold!" kind of way.

He's whatever you want him to be, really. Any answer is correct. Pick the one you enjoy the most. I like to think he fucked up and turned his actual face in to gold but couldn't let people know he had that kind of power and so made a mask out of gold to wear over his golden face in order to fool his competitors.

I got $7000 to spend lads. What do I need to purchase to become a true understander of strategy? I only have Napoopan right now

Only problem with SSD's is the low amount of space.

Still, first time booting my SSD computer was better than sex. Lasted just as long, too.

>but couldn't let people know he had that kind of power
Yeah, that's also why he literally turns people into gold on the battlefield.

>>163540773
Which kills them instantly because, holy fuck, their internal organs are now solid gold. Gelt turned his fucking face in to gold and *survived* and that's why he's the Supreme Patriarch.

Do you guys think Warhammer is going to drop below 25% off, or is that the best I'm gonna get for it on this sale?

>>163540425
Day 9153 to the nth degree. Water has become sand as the seven Tribulatory Moons align in a perfect hexagon. The faint echos of the Eternal Screech finally subside.

Warhammer is still shit. And the DLC is being sold for full price.

>>163540678
Get a life.

Wait for the Warhammer DLC sale and buy everything

>>163538659
pls

>>163540887
Go to your local Games Workshop store and grab one of the 20% off codes. You can apply the discount on top of the 25% sale, and I think that's as good as it's going to get for at least a year.

Yeah you definetly need to recruit 3 spears to get that 2nd city
>>163540887
Don't buy the dlc until 3rd of jan when they announce the winner of the comp

>>163540932

THANKS LADS

>>163536915
Cute!

>>163541172
it's all pretty ok

vikings is skippable because it's the worst culture pack

you can grab either longbeards OR celts OR slavs depending on which flavour of barbarian you enjoy the most since they're all kind of the same

the last roman is also not as good as the base game or age of charlemagne and can be safely skipped SO

get blood (mandatory), one barbar pack (or zero if you hate barbars), sand (mandatory), and aoc (mandatory)

i'd honestly just get them all tho cuz they're on sale and they're all p ok
