It's pretty grimdark so blood is pretty good.

Otherwise just get the DLC of who you want to play in the basegame.
Vikings, Celts, Slavs and Longbeards are pretty shit. Empires of Sand are actually good.
But get Vikings if you want to play as them obviously.

Last Roman is okay, roman horde is cool. Average.

Charlemagne is pretty good.

Vlad von C-...or rather Emperor Vlad von Carstein here with another fantastic update.
The false Emperor Karl Franz is on the run and licking his wounds in some ditch somewhere. The only serious opposition left in Reikland consists of Gelt and his army in Eilhart. Helmgart seems to be under siege by some Bretonnians.
Averland and half of Wissenland has been conquered by the Border Princes!
Such a disgrace has never before befallen the Empire! Franz is a truly the worst emperor.
Sadly my plans of liberating these lands have been foiled by foul dwarfs. Manfred marches from Nuln with an army to drive them out of Sylvania. So much for eternal vows friendship between the empire and the Dawi.

Also my realm has the shape of Austria.

Well I guess you do have a point.
The Empire is now down to Helmgart because Gelt is a coward and ran away into Middenland.
The dwarfs sacked Schwarzhafen but that's about it. They then proceeded to incompetently wander around Sylvania until Ungrim got himself ambushed in the underway and annihilated. Now Manlet will need to finish off Throgrim who decided to besiege fellow dwarfs of Zhufbar.

The last weird unit from the pool are giant enemy crabs. Just straight-up crabs for your faction of hive-mind insects.

Want more?

>>165348909

mortars are kinda trash against the spiders huge armor. improved towers or handgunners can punish them in sieges, also cannons if you have them in the defending army.

Fireballs also tend to be shit against high armor units, it's more about roasting low armor monsters, amber mage can use his magic spear to great effect though against all monsters.

Sulkaris the Sageheg.

Sulkaris was born with a special power. She was stronger than all her classmates at the Sage Fighting Academy. She served in the Sage military, fighting the primordials they were fighting and in an expedition she discovered the Gohma and turned her to the darkness and got BTFO'd by Link's ancient ancestor, Gustaf, as well as a bunch of praying mantis motherfuckers. She lost a part of her humanity in a battle which is why she looks like a giant praying mantis, please stop personal messaging me asking why that's why. Also, mandibles aren't gross fuck you linkkid663 everyone knows you're a fucking Pokemon scammer faggot.

Yup especially when you consider how much you need to invest into the garbage stable building chain for more expensive and less useful cavalry. CA did a fucking terrible job balancing the Empire on campaign.

>Stables 2500 @ Tier 2
>Livery 5000 @ Tier 3
Total for Empire Knights = 7500 and 5 turns of build time.

>Reiksfort 4000 @ Tier 3
Total for Reiksguard = 4000 and 3 turns of build time.

Reiksguard being demonstrably better than Knights and only slightly more expensive.

This first stack is somewhat depleted, the second one is a completely replenished 20 units army, the third one is fucked up from a previous battle I had with him, this is why my units are hurt. Stack #4 is still a lord with 4 guys. It's fucking crazy.

just make sure you have 8k when charlemagne comes knocking so you dont have to deal with him and the pope and you can take sicily in peace

dont worry about trustworthiness, kill your vassals asap cause nobody likes you anyway and your biggest enemy (charlemagne) hates lombards by default.

try to befriend the avars so they don't come knocking. build garrison stuff on the avar border in case they do.

Ok, so I've seen some Total Warhammer players complaining about the Lizard-folk. This is the closest you may as well get.

>>165355441
Yeah, but in this case it's bloody Sigvald.

A Chaos Lord/Champion of Slaanesh who despite being actually a competent fighter, has to have a whole lot of shield-bearers around him who will use their polished shields so that he would look at his reflection.

AND THIS APPLIES TO WHEN HE'S IN THE THICKEST.

Other Chaos Warriors don't bother with this and simply go and actually get shit done.

See Egil Styrbjorn.

>>165355492
If they do have to include OP units who are OP on purpose, then it'd be Grail Knights and the even more OP Blood Knights.

But knowing CA they'll probably go and nerf the latter two and buff further Demigryphs.

>>165356140
As in the shit that is AoS or back in WHFB?

In the latter he wasn't a Khorne Cultist, but was Undivided (because it's a requirement to become Everchosen).

In AoS he's a OP Chaos Undivided demigod that is sufficiently powerful to do whatever he wants because he's essentially equal to the other Chaos Gods at this point.

Alright so in Med 2 I'm playing as Venice and the Mongols have arrived. They took Antioch and are doing literally nothing else.
No invading, not even moving into other lands.
Can I make them active again? I don't like attacking them because they're always pretty much huddled up and while I can take on 1 or 2 stacks at a time I can't handle 4-5 hordes in one battle.
Also, what's the best strategy for open field battles against them as Venice? Do I invest in artillery? Do I tie up their horse archers with stradiots and them have spearmen charge for the kill? Are Venitian archers worth it?

Question lads.
I could've sworn the select nation screen looked different. The pale white filter is obnoxious, and I thought the faction's emblem was imposed behind the leader.
Is it?
I've played very little Attila, but I think that is what is displayed there. I modded the game and that's when I think it messed up. I uninstalled all mods, verified cache and even reinstalled the whole game but it seems to remain.
Does it just look that stupid to begin with?

Thanks for confirming.

I fucked with the settings, changing one thing and then changing it back got rid of the white glow, but the background was then plain black.
It was the leader porthole 2D/3D option that fucked it. 3D has the black backgrounds.

Would anyone know if a specific .pack file governs those? Plan is to delete just that and then verify cache. Fixed a problem I had for a very long time with Shogun 2. Verify and reinstall kept just grabbing the same broken .pack until I specifically deleted just it.

A veritable work of its time, Radious mod is an author’s input on the contemporary attitude so critical of mods that they’re often not given a chance at all, a window through which we see the creator’s wish to move his audience, as well as frustrations at the vessels of these emotions being ignored or enjoyed as “low art”.

Attempts at analyzing Radious mod’s implications and unraveling its messages necessitate great concentration and effort, which is further exacerbated when so much of my blood flows elsewhere than my brain when enjoying this mod.

Radious mod is a journey, an embodiment of a search fundamental to our humanity yet abandoned by contemporary society; Radious Mod is the eternal quest for perfection. As philosophers and "understanders of strategy" alike vainly peruse the void of their hollow souls for an abstract ideal, they achieve naught save for casting the community into desecration. Delving further into the hypothetical and the metaphysical only reinforces the misbelief that true beauty lies within. “Homosexuality,” Plato wrote, “is regarded as shameful by barbarians and by those who live under despotic governments, Both of which apply to contemporary society.

"Quod culus tibi purior salillo est, nec toto decies cacas in anno; atque id durius est faba et lapillis. Quod tu si manibus teras fricesque, non umquam digitum inquinare posses.”

As tremors of mirth reverberate through my corpus; my finite faculties discharged; my soul emancipated. Such is the power of Radious Mod. Radious Mod is not everyone’s cup of tea. It is perhaps best treated as a lengthy parable. For the actively dismissive it will hardly make much of an impression other than being an ordinary mod with a cheap attempt at improving the game. For others with willing ears and eyes to match, it can be a novel take on the values and motivations surrounding the genre.

as long as you're not facing a bows. The best way to defend the early tier forts as otomo is to put your yari ashigari at the base of the wall in spear wall formation and your matchlocks on the wall behind them. Will give your matchlocks a ton of time to fire into the enemy, your yari won't budge and you'll get cleaner victories.

If they have bows then this goes out the window as your yari will get shredded and you won't be able to hit them with your bows. so always keep a bow unit or two to handle their bows.

Sounds interesting so if I had used that tactic how much better do you think it would be, 20% less casualties. And what stops the yari breaking after being flanked.
If I have

Would my archers be in range and either scare theirs away or call their melee in ?

Why are so many factions in Total War: Warhammer unplayable?

I think it would be interesting to play as a Brettonian faction, or as the dwarves up north that have to face chaos and Norsca and the Skaeling, or one of the many non-Empire human factions, or even the vampire-bordering dwarves.

Why can we not play any of these?

the Yari should be right up next to the wall. Even if the enemy starts to over lap them they won't get much. It'll buy you a lot of time and your matchlocks will make sure they'll rout. You might have to sacrifice the yari but you'll save other units.

You might need your archers next to your matchlocks. but if they only have a single unit of archers i wouldn't be worried, its when its a 3 archer line that i would be worried about.

Also as Otomo those heroic victories with your daimyo are key. They'll get you respect and you'll be able to start actually trading with other clans. Just don't buy the lot upgrades. they're useless selling off a lot for a one time cash bump is a waste of resources.

Turn 99 so far.
This is what the known world looks like right now.
Durthu and Orion are both in Reikland opposed only by Vlad. Manlet has the more powerful army since I reinforced him with terrorgheists and varghulfs but he can't help out due to a large greenskin army invading Averland.
Kislev got obliderated by Chaos more or less.
Estalia and Woodies ate Bretonnia.

Its not only how much the max is, but also how much food it takes to build up the castle to that level. You won't be able to build up all your provinces up to citadels. so you have to choose where you want to build up as a training ground and where you'll leave it to be mostly a farm with maybe one or two secondary buildings to help with public order or money.

Yeah in my takeda play I realised how good and castles don't scale properly.
What's your opinion on demolishing mid tier ones you capture once they're not the front line
And yeah does Bunzo for range and wherever Shizmau start, for melee units sound good.
In my Takeda run I found cav extremely underpowered, would you reccomened one or two units just to act as a distraction, or just avoid cav unless the general entirely
Should I ever use cannons in field battle or save them for just sieges
>>
>>165384834
>>165384259
How are donderbuss cav
>>
>>165384834
cav is good for running down enemy units so they don't return and for charging bows or hitting the rear of a melee but mostly running down fleeing units and yeah only a couple, Like the idea of demolishing castles that aren't on the front line, Cannons are purely siege weapons. they don't get many kills in field battles, but will force an enemy to attack your position. Best used against enemy cav.

>>165384518
yes
>>
>>165375016
yes, unless you are playing any other faction, in which case, they will suck the fun out of your campaign by becoming a Badlands-tier superpower who spam annoying units

>In 1551, Oda Nobuhide died unexpectedly. Nobunaga was said to have acted outrageously during his funeral, throwing ceremonial incense at the altar. This convinced many Oda retainers of Nobunaga's mediocrity and lack of discipline. Alienated, they then began to side with his soft-spoken and well-mannered brother, Nobuyuki. Hirate Masahide, a valuable mentor and retainer to Nobunaga, was ashamed by Nobunaga's behavior and performed seppuku. This had a huge effect on Nobunaga, who later built a temple to honor Masahide.

I mean, it was bad enough considering those who didn't pre-order the Greek States couldn't play as Athens, Sparta, and the laughing stock of Greece.

Y'know, since all the factions were free in Rome2.

I don't recall having that much fun with a majority of Rome2's factions.

Since Total Warhammer and Shogun are the only Warscape TW that gets cavalry to feel right, you can safely rule out nomadic factions.

On the matter of podcasts, considering most gaming podcasts talking about the game discussed Rome2 in release, they probably won't have favorable things to say on Rome2.

It was an easy campaign overall (although no mods) with rome, next one will probably be ''divide et impera'' or radious mod, not sure which one is better.

And of course playing a faction based around archers + spearmen in front to enjoy comfy views in battles

>>165402971

Older Warscape titles like Empire and Med 2 weren't necessarily better, but they offered more interesting options. Threatening to attack as negotiating tool, being able to give land or units to other factions, etc. But again all of that was easily abused, but the older games simply offered more choices.

I felt that the bug was fitting considering this campaign so I let it slide. Even if I had reloaded there was a second date stack that I ended up beating, followed up by a full chosokabe stack that I lost to, so he was likely doomed anyways

My ninja has served the oda clan valiantly, and has over 300 confirmed kills. Unfortunately there is only so much one man can do, and after nobunga got his teeth kicked in by the date-chosokabe alliance, our capital was soon to follow.

Somehow the ai factions avoided war amongst themselves as they took turns shitting all over me

Actually, there are items in the game aside from potions that give you a percentage increase to your charge damage. I think he can actually have the highest charge bonus of all units in the game if kitted properly and becomes a wrecking ball as long as you keep him charging from unit to unit.

Khazarak:
>Pretty good in melee
>Better to give him buffs to nearby units (which is down his combat tree anyway) because Beastmen infantry sucks
>Starts with Minotaurs, which are single handedly capable of ass raping even top tier units

Malagor:
>Ok spells, but spells were never good to begin with
>Sucks in melee like 99% of most wizards
>Starts with a Giant, which honestly just remind you they aren't Minotaurs

Morghur:
>Ok in melee, but that doesn't matter because he can just respawn instantly if he dies which is pretty handy
>Gets Chaos Spawn, which are slow as fuck and are basically budget Minotaurs
>Can spawn Chaos Spawn in battles after you do his quest which is pretty handy as well

I'd say Malagor is the easy elimination honestly. I personally like Khazarak, give him a Gorebull and use them as a goon squad. They can team up to fuck literally anything in melee. Use the Minotaurs to gang rape whatever you tie down with your cheap infantry.

Beastmen aren't a particularly great faction, but I still had the most fun in my Khazarak game than in anything else. Tons of memories, especially my slug-outs with the Empire.

They are currently bugged in the sense that they don't get the confederation penalty other factions get. They just fully confederate within the first 10 turns and then proceed to rape everyone around them. They can also occupy anywhere which makes them blob really fast.

Also, when controlled by the AI they much rather side with Archaon than the human player. Most of the campaigns that start near them are almost unplayable unless you nerf or pacify them with mods. February can't come soon enough.

They're a second chaos invasion to the player in most campaigns. Their roster is overall fairly fair. The only broken features are a free arrow ability you can technically kite forever abusing, and their AP melee infantry, which were absolute shit and then CA overbuffed them.

One of their lords is one of the strongest if not the strongest in the game by default. And in general they'll bleed you pretty bad.

They're fairly fun to play. They've a weird combo of speed and range with some units, and slow deathstar blob with other units.

>>165434876
Is what worth it? Playing Rome 2?
Depends on if you want to fucking play Rome 2.
It isn't a bad game by this stage but it's still probably the second worst total war after Empire.(I'm also disqualifying the original two games from the running based on how aged they are.) While Rome 1 is probably a better game, Rome 2 presents better obviously.

the problem with them is that there was no reason to bring them over the less expensive wardancers w/ asrai spears. They were fine, just overpriced. Then CA turned them into an unholy union between greatswords and slayers

People complain about Wildwood Rangers because they're broken, and rightly so, but the fix is so fucking simple. Just give them their god damn tabletop ability already, the only thing that made them even remotely unique.

Give them an ability that bumps up their AP damage when they're within range of something that causes Fear or Terror and revert their stats back to what they used to be at all other times. It's that fucking simple, holy shit. Unit fixed.

I once won a battle I shouldn't have won against a much larger defending force by methodically burning down the city instead of instantly charging in

I have also many times lost a battle I shouldn't have because the penalties for destroyed city are insane in attila, you probably just never noticed how huge the malus actually is, if you only want to sack the city its always better to burn it significantly

>>165443370
>little real impact on the outcome of the battle

Say that to my fleet of 14 artillery boats and 6 melee boats. The 14 artillery destroy towers and most of the town, giving the enemy massive melee attack and defense penalties as well as morale, causing them to be unable to hurt us while breaking very easily. Even faster if my artillery boats have more ammo to help out a bit.
>>
>>165402971
It kinda depends. Shogun 2 has diplomacy that fits the setting like;

>Ally(but rival) breaks your alliance and ally with your enemy

Warhammer has decent diplomacy if you know how it works. It's very power projection oriented and relation oriented. Colonizing a town with your only army will often make the AI attack you because you are pretty weak for a few turns after colonzing. It's also not hard to get very loyal allies.

>Spears are meant to melt to axes and swords, at least they did in historical titles.

Not exactly the case; axes didn't 'hard counter' swords, it's just that they had massive AP damage compared to swords. The way you see it is like sending Falxmen against a Spearman unit, where it's more like sending a Swordsman into an Hoplite unit, in historical terms.
Greatswords are more like dismounted cavalry and one of the Empire's only Armour Piercing units, they are better suited for flanking and going toe to toe with high armour units, like Dwarf anything, Chaos chosen, etc. and not a general purpose infantry like Eternal Guard.

Greatsword have less MA than EG have MD. The reason Greatswords are powerful and cost so much is because of the high armour.

I know the feeling, I was all ready for a Chaos game but ultra elite troops are no fun when the enemy can bridge the gap that artificially.
Still wasn't too bad in the few battles before I realized it, but still.

Honestly the worst deal with battle difficulty is vampire counts.
It was unbelievably infuriating seeing two of my skeletons fighting two of theirs, mine disintegrating and theirs not, despite the perfect symmetry of the engagement.
Even if I was playing somebody else and my troops routed it wouldn't have bothered me so much. Just the two undead against each other grinding together between the stones of battle difficulty made away with any dream of transparency.

What is your favorite total war line of dialogue?
>>
I just received Warhammer for free and I like it a lot. Which DLCs are worth buying, or are there recommendations?
>>
>>165447829
Very.

Few days ago I read about how they rekted Romans,captured few hundreds of their soldiers and bought them to mongolia to server as their auxillary troops. Later when Mongols were fighting Chinese they fielded their Roman slaves who got utterly rekt because Chinese were using new weapon - crossbow which went through their shields like it was nothing

not sure who is saying this but I keep hearing this whispers when playing VC. Or maybe Im going insane
>>
>>165448845
King and the warlord, Grim and the Grave, and blood are the best DLC.

Personally i think wood elves are boring in GC, Beastmen are fun but not everyone like hordes.
>>
>>165448845

Blood for the blood god
If you enjoy vamps/empire, get the grim & grave
Even if you dont like dorfs/orcs, get the kind and the warlord.
Wood elves are rather diverse, not a fan of their start but fun to play as since you can make realy unorthodox armies.
If you enjoy horde factions, go for beastmen, chaos is still a pain to play as.

BLOOD KNIGHTS
>>
>>165449319

I think the unique starting positsions and campaign gimmicks spice it up enough to play them, even if you didn't like the original orc/dorf faction.

Original dorf campaign is kinda mediocre after you secure the Badlands, original orc campaign is straight up boring.
Meanwhile, Belegar's and Skarsnik's campaigns are easily the best ones in the entire game. The new units add a lot to their factions too.

Thanks. Looks like I'll wait with the Beastmen and the Wood Elves.

>>165448802
Honestly the VA in general for Empire and Dorfs is pretty spot on.
>>
>>165449319
Why would you not want to bully the Dawi as the greatest goblin to ever live? Skarsnik has a whole chapter dedicated to him in the Book of Grudges. You should help add another chapter by killing Begger Nohammer.

>>165450506

They consistently win in my campaigns. Dwarfs always seem to choke in the silver road and never expand. Those dudes who live in Desolation of Nagash do alright though, but greenskins still kinda fuck around in the badlands/border princes most of the time.

You think the Hunnic or other barbarian hordes can conquer Byzantium? That's not where you should focus your attention on. The Armenian tide is coming to sweep you under it's cold, merciless waves.

I'm glad my U.S. History professor divided his U.S. History into 2 courses. One focusing on the pre-20th Century, another focused on the 20th Century to today. Very insightful and detailed.

Doesn't every U.S. History class do that? Fuck, I remember it being split like that in high school and university.

They sure as hell haven't done that in public schooling anymore.

Hell, because they cram it all into one semester, they have a rough time even getting into the cold war.

That's literally the lowest common denominator multiplied by the second lowest common denominator.

Sassykids are disgusting because on top of being one of the strongest individual factions in the game they also have half a dozen fanatically loyal puppet states surrounding them, all of which will gladly throw away multiple stacks to slow you down whilst Big Daddy gears up to finish the job.
