Do you have to have some DLC to progress in the Heinrich Kemmler Chaos Blade quest? It says put any two of the following in his army: grave guard, the sternsmen. But I already have like ten grave guard units in his army and the quest still isn't going anywhere.

Also, for the cloak of mists and shadows do you have to attack the Empire specifically, or if its been wiped out by Wood Elves would it be enough to attack their settlements on former imperial territory?

googled both these questions and couldn't find squat. You'd think someone would have mentioned it somewhere.

>>165893448
They'll inevitably declare war on you in the first 10 turns, and they just happen to be sitting on the closest port access to the British Channel.

They also start with a navy that can take out your army in the British Channel, so be wary of that. Ideally, you should consolidate your position in Frisia and possibly take action against the Langobards before going into Britain.

was so mad that I had to alt f4 last game.

>>165887936
A number of reasons.
https://1d4chan.org/wiki/Warhammer:_Age_of_Sigmar
Explains most of it.

Essentially they canned Warhammer Fantasy for no good reason and replaced it with a product inferior in every way.
One of the bad reasons, or not a justification for the decision but something GW appreciated after having killed it, was renaming everything into more "original" names to assist their ability to press copywrite claims.
Because they can't copywrite High Elves for example, they literally called the Age of Skubmar race Aelves instead.

Don't have the quest requirements in front of me, but if it says to attack the Empire, you've gotta attack the Empire faction, that a provice was originally their doesn't matter. If you're lucky they'll rebel somewhere and retake the town.

He already has. Sort of. The AI has a backup in case its ruling dynasty ends up without an heir and it'll just recycle the current dude with a different name but the same age every time he dies until a heir turns up, which never happens at such an advanced age. I noticed it in one of my campaigns where I married a daughter off to Rome for a relations boost and got her back the next turn as her hubby had died. Kept an eye on him and he ended up reaching like 120 before I got bored of the campaign and started a new one.

>>165903752

if you want a hard start with everyone around you hating you: Lakhmids. you start as a vassal to the sassanigs so you can't independently declare war unless you rebel which isn't in your best interest since you make 1k gold per turn when at peace with them. You have the ERE to the west, Sassy and their vassals north and east, white huns east and north east and jews to the south. You start with a shitty low income town to top it all off. It forces you to play slowly and smartly and imo is the most memorable campaign.

>>165903995

The achievement says I have to declare war on every faction the turn I meet them and never sue for or accept peace deals

Warhammer autoresolve is fucked. I also noticed it way overestimates the value of ranged troops

oh, I thought it was a different achievement.

well then, anyone far from the Romans would be safest but most boring. I;d say aksum are good since they are on the edge of the map and have a good economy and interesting units. Plus you don't have to worry much about neighbors since you are surrounded by un-traversable terrain and water.

To solve autoresolve, would it be possible to give control of both armies to the AI and run through the battle as fast as possible on the battle map?

Albion, a mist-shrouded land inhabited by druids, giants, and mysterious stone circles. Not a lot happens there. Bretonnia also draws heavily from post-Roman Britain and Arthurian legend, although their primary aesthetic is that of Medieval France.

I'm fighting for every scrap and I've already won some decisive victories. I've ended 5 factions now. The Suebians had a particularly hilarious demise, as they sacked one city with massive losses and then were beaten back by the second garrison, only to then be killed by the rebels that just popped up in the province, who then proceeded to attack my garrison which then beat them back as well. I also managed to move my african army in to intercept the garamantians before they attacked and was able to repulse them and almost completely destroy their army, so everything has been going pretty well so far.

Everything will still probably go to shit, but I'm still being aggressive and I'm about to send two stacks to finish off the marcomanni. I also have a fullstack ready to hopefully crush the picts in the field and then raze their city to the ground, leaving only the Irish to deal with. Hopefully all that goes well next time.

How the fuck do people get these kinds of victories? Is it all about chokepoints or something?
My cav always gets butchered, even when charging the rear of engaged units.

>>165916421
yes its all chokepoints - because of the impact damage mechanics in attila it is possible for even the very light garrison cav to do huge damage when rear-charging. The common strategy is to take a unit with defensive formation (spear wall, testudo, shield wall) and wait for the enemy to throw all of their units at it, and then using your garrison cav rear charge the blob that forms

Has anyone got the Dropbox/Mega link for all the Warhammer literature?

This should be interesting. After realizing that the north african client states I had set up were losing their battle against the carthaginian-allied numidians, I levied a force of local mercs and aor units to act as a garrison force against any incursions. Now however my client states have been eliminated, so I decided I would try to use this patchwork force to go on the offensive

Form them up how you want then turn them into a group and lock it. (You can tell because the icon will be a pad lock thats either open or closed.)

They'll move in formation and if you give a attack order they'll go forward and attack the closest enemies.

Magyars are white -and- based. The regular missile cav is awesome, even if they get tired too quickly from running in circles, and the nobles are deadly accurate at long range AND are decent in melee. Right from the start, Hungary is a solid pick for cav users.

Damn shame that England in SS doesn't get Norman Knights, or do they? Seems like they should start with a few, even if they can't recruit them normally later. Or have it a Normandy-only recruitable.

Warhammer general now!

>>165921983

Because, sempai, I have work tomorrow and can't be fucked to continue because fucking Milan has got out of control and I don't have enough cunting longbows in my recruitment pool to outshoot their crossbows.

I can win, but it's a fucking hassle and I can't be arsed currently.

Years from now men would say...

Here began the fall of /twg/

They do, famalam.

They get Miles (mountain Norman Knights, but not the Sicilians Normans)

Norman Sergeants

Miles Pedites (foot Norman knights)

They can only recruit then in the early campaign until about 1200

If bloodborne can split from dark souls so can warhammer

>>165922262
Warhammer is for faggots? Couldn't agree more!

If we split into /whtwg/ and /twg/ then the later will be dead in a month though.

>>165922196

/twg/ was long gone before warhammer came along.

>>165922306

Go ahead and make the thread then

It'll die a month after the release of new DLC

>>165922219
You were warned, you petulant little shit. Now your going to learn the true meaning of consequences.

I wish Azhag had an alternate start from Grimgor. I really want to play as him but I don't enjoy the Badlands Bowl at all.

Regional recruitment is goofy. This stable lets me produce nothing.

Is there a 'toggle melee/ranged' button for missile cav? Sometimes I want my horse archers to stop shooting and run down fleeing troops.
