If you've been living under a rock these past few months, Bretonnia has been released
We have battle map creating tools now. Only land battles and only for custom/custom mp games. Siege battles may be a possibility in the future but they're practically covering their ears and screeching at any mention of using modded maps to improve the campaign.
UPDATE: PEOPLE FIGURED OUT HOW TO DO IT ANYWAY AND OUT OF DAMAGE CONTROL CA WILL BE ADDING OFFICIAL SUPPORT FOR ADDING CUSTOM MAPS TO THE CAMPAIGN ALONGSIDE THE BRETONNIA UPDATE
BRETONNIA IS 28TH OF FEBUARY:

how do you deal with irondrakes/dwarf ranged units? they are so fucking cancer. They have armor so don't bother trying to deal with them from ranged unless you're bringing superior numbers of Hand-gunners, so you're left with only the option of suicide-charging them and watching your dudes get mowed down while charging towards them

did you read what I wrote? they are tough little rock niggers that will mow anything that melees them, including cav (unless you're using a large number of knights or demigryphs or someshit, since if you use too little you can only engage some of them while the rest of the midgets get free target practice on your cav that's stuck in melee with them)

>It has been a common misconception that Skaven are all of the male gender. The specifics of where they come from are widely debated amongst those scholars who show an interest in the species, and include many ludicrous theories as to the origin of the Ratmen. One such postulation is that the Skaven are born directly from Chaos, while another claims they are merely ordinary rats that are mutated by constant exposure to Warpstone. The truth of the matter is that there are, indeed, female Skaven, locked away in the depths of the Under-Empire. Female Skaven serve no other purpose than to propagate their vile species, and they are only slightly conscious of the events that transpire around them. Constant application of Warpstonederived narcotics beginning at a young age keeps them blissfully ignorant of the events that transpire in the Under-Empire. So cloistered away from the rest of their race are they that they do not learn their race’s chittering speech, nor are they proficient in even the simplest social skills…or so the Skaven believe.

So, I was playing Ebdanians (Irish) campaign and I get bonus for moving my armies to other ppl's regions and raiding them. This means that each army generates some income. This is a ridiculous amount of gold earned, and I had almost all my forces raiding North Africa.

Early in the game, I was swallowing up Spain and because I was winning a war against the Western Roman Empire, I had lots of diplomacy points, and me and the Maurians became military allies. I was raiding for turn after turn, trying to provoke them to fite me, but nothing happened. Then I found out why.

My largest naturally occuring campaign battle yet. Some 6000 Empire and Hochland units face off in the bloodiest civil war I'd ever seen. The confederation that Hochland had become had become too powerful, and in an effort to break a siege they sallied forth into an open field where we clashed. My well protected Sunmaker Helstorm rocket battery amassed some 600 kills, especially with a buff banner that provided additional fire damage. Hochland ceased to be shortly after.
Wouldn't this be the ultimate irony?

At 100% ward save the unit wouldn't take damage from any source.
At 100% physical magic would still hurt.
I don't know if fire counts as magic or physical or neither. It's pretty rare anyway.
>>169491579
The final save calculation made.
>does an enemy attack your guy? if so;
>does the attack hit? if so;
>is the attack strong enough to wound? if so;
>is the attack strong enough to get past the armor save? if so;
>roll for ward save
It's just a flat XYZ% chance to negate any damage that actually connects. A 50% ward save means that 50% of damage taken by your character never actually happens, so someone with 10,000HP would mathematically have the equivalent of 15,000HP as a result.
That 20% Ward Save talisman is the best item in the game because having it equipped negates one in five damage instances.

In Warhammer 40K it's referred to as an invulnerable save, because that's basically what it is.

>>169492325
They have Ward saves, but it doesn't translate the Tabletop "Ward save" definition
in Total Warhammer, Ward save of 20% means 20% of the damage is blocked, a unit which takes 100 HP of damage, will take 80 instead because of it's Ward save (same with physical and magic resistances)
Play the game before you comment.

What is a ward save anyway
Sounds like table top mechanic
>>169493018
>Those are *literally* identical.
That's just untrue
The outcome is the same, but the way of getting there is very different
>>169493018
the average result is the same, but the "damage shaving" (second way) is less RNG prone, for the good and for the bad
There's no clutch rolls to completely avoid Kholek's hammer for example
>>169493037
jumping from a tall building and hanging yourself are not the same thing, even if both result in you autistic life ending
>>169493213
>average out to exactly the same thing over time
BRO NO U DONT UNDERSTAND THO THEYRE 100% LEGIT DIFFERENT....
>>169493441
but from a game mechanic standpoint. they do the same thing.
doubling your 50 or halfing your 200 gets you 100, every time. Nothing more to it than that.
They should introduce a family tree mechanic for the dorfs. That way if one of your kin is killed in battle you get another grudge to avenge them.
>>169493484
Holy shit, are you retarded?
>>169493438
Ward save is pic related, these autists are just arguing over the definition when it's already there in the game.
>>169493603
We are discussing tabletop ward save you idiot.
>>169493438
It is. It's protections that are magical/mystical in nature, that protect you from things armor won't, for example cannon balls ignored armor in WHFB, but not ward saves.

Chaos Daemons

Skaven
Chaos Dwarfs
These are the five factions which worship Chaos gods and they are nominally on the same side.
Vampires are evil undead. Tomb Kings were originally envisioned as evil undead but were made neutral instead.
Greenskins are the third antagonist force. They are probably the most entertaining because GREEN TIDE.
Dark Elves are the fourth antagonist force and in older lore were slowly being subverted by Chaos but then they changed that so they were purely Elven assholes taken to an extreme.

Don't know about the Lord but when I bought K&W in the middle of a Greenskin campaign I was able to recruit the RoR's. I'd assume it's no different for G&G.

Only if averaged over time.
If your hero takes two cannon ball hits before you get him safe, in one situation he is guaranteed to take 50% damage, while in the other he could take none, or 100%.
>>169494914
Yeah this 100%. Either you are arguing that Attila the Hun was a genderfluid 10th dimensional otherkin, or that all women are literally rapeslaves in all periods of history before 50s america (and that was a bad change)
>>169494914

The Legion of Azgorh was originally released as part of WHFB. You and him autistically screeching "but it says AoS!" will not change that it is the only official army list released recently for Chaos Dwarfs. It will be the basis for Chaos Dwarfs in game. No fanmade shit will be incorporated. He can kill himself and you can fuck off for giving credence to his autism.
>>169497843
So?
You link the AoS version because you assume that people aren't aware of the LoA. You're trying to appear all smart and knowledable when you don't even pay attention to what you're linking.
You weren't even aware that they'd made an AoS update. So again, you do nothing but expose your autistic ignorance.
Is the suggested mod pack up to date?
>>169498117
No, I linked it because it's the first fucking result you tremendous autist. Anything you say is irrelevant because the list was originally created for WHFB, it is the list that will be used for the Chaos Dwarfs and you continuing to post is just you flailing around like a moron.

Nigga, of course I know they won't incorporate the fanmade 8th edition stuff, but that don't mean I can't share quality fanwork while praying to sweet Jesus that they'll incorporate something similar. Thommy H. actually did a great job with his rulebook, it dodges a lot of the problems the fanbooks usually suffer from. The new things fit the lore and the army composition.
I wonder if they'll expand the Chorfs beyond the LoA stuff. Everything is possible now that Bretonnia got new things.

Big problem with Conquer Anywhere is the thing which makes Wood Elf AI so fucking aggressive. The moment the AI can wage war on a faction without having to deal with constant backsteps to replenish units it gains a massive war boner.
It tends to make the late game an absolute bore if you're playing a minor faction. Imagine the Badlands Bowl except this one is free entrance for everyone

then again the AI has god tier micro abilities to evade spells so bombardments only really work when you're in melee with the AI. but in multiplayer cheeky lightning bolts can fuck up their most elite infantry if they're not focused on them.

>>169500364
I was using lightning bolt on stationary infantry.
But I bring offensive spells according to how i'm going to play or who i'm facing. Wind blast is better against lighter infantry, while thunderbolt is better against heavy armored infantry. Comet takes a long time to come down and is easily avoided so its only use is in the middle of a blob in melee especially if they're caught in a pocket.

Ogryns in 40K. They're so dumb that they believe orders from superiors literally filter down from the Big E himself. Getting them to worship Chaos is as simple as telling them that the guys they've been working for are actually the BAD GUYS, and that worshipping Chaos is what the Emperor wants.
Are crossbowmen effective against pistoliers if I can get them focus fired?

Those "mobile ranged" don't really have any serious damage, their use relys on the fact you can skirmish with them, a crossbowman squad will win in a single 1v1 engagement easy as long as the pistoliers stay ranged and don't run.

Get mortars asap, they always go for mortars then you can just cover your mortars with a few crossbowmen and it'll shut them down easy.
>>169502975
Easy way to deal with Marienburg's starting army is to put an army of your own outside the thin chokepoint to the west a bit of Eilhart and put them on Ambush stance. Marienburg will be tempted by the "undefended" Eilhart and spring your trap. It's very consistent.

2x Mortar/1x Hellstorm
vs a Chaos army that was Hero heavy with 3 hellcannons, 2 Spawn, some chariots and beasts, only a couple marauders and Warriors
It was a win but a pyrrhic one, the Heros and Spawn just fucked my sword line up so quickly it got pretty sloppy
Crossbows didn't kill anything, the cavalry did good work
What's a better composition here? I was thinking dropping to 4 swords and 4 Halbs, dropping the Xbows for more Outriders , losing the mortars completely and using 2x Hellstorm

Probably most people are at war with Vampires or Greenskins or Norscans or some other Empire faction and in the meantime Tree Hitler conquers nearby Dwarfs and most of Bretonnia. Then he declares a war on the Empire, just because he wants to expand, to find more Lebensraum (google it if you don't understand).
Look at >>169503428 and notice that the Empire is at war with 3 WE factions, including Tree Hitler.

Especially with the buff that's coming, I'd suggest a Metal wizard. It would give you armor debuffs to use against high tier warriors. Beyond that, a Warrior Priest if you can fit one in would give you an additional leadership aura and could hold against an Exalted hero. Amber wizards on gryphon mounts can dish out a surprising amount of damage, too (I think their weapon strength is ~450).
Ideally, I would suggest a meme army like x18 Steam Tanks or DEMIGRYPHS FOR DAAAAAYS, but it doesn't appear that you're going for that build.

It was pretty cool. I'm sure it was just a coincidence that one of the main recruitment buildings in the next nearest dwarf province was for slayers. But the idea of so many dwarfs deciding to take up the slayer oath because they weren't there to save their capital or weren't able to stop the humans or they had lost members of their clan... It was great. It was like every dwarf decided to go on a jihad against my empire forces.

The DLC powercreep is real. Just got the Welv and Beast Meme DLCs, a lot of their lord's skills are way better than anything the original faction's lords have.

Why not pick the other Necromancer with the based Corpsecart?

He is a faction leader after all
Verybaldfaction leader but still
Mannfred did nothing wrong

Then use Ghorst or a normal necromancer, they're actually better.
>>169514630
Kemmler has a nice hat and beard
>>169514723
He only destroyed world

Any mods that give Karl Franz a beard? He would look much more like Sigmar's champion and less like a Slav if he had a beard.

>>169515624
Would you have preferred if they just threw a skeleton head onto a Chosen (Great Weapon) and called it Krell?
At least this way there's a neat direct rivalry between Vampire/Necromancer factions that can be expanded on later when these characters start flipping their allegiances.
Vlad & Isabella vs. Mannfred & Kemmler/Ghorst
When Tomb Kings get included you can scoot Kemmler down to Nehekhara, pair him up with Krell as a secondary LL, and have him fighting Settra or Arkhan the Black to earn that Lichemaster title he likes so much.

I got Total War: Warhammer in the Humble Bundle but I'm stuck in the Civ5 mindset that if I expand to aggressivly my taken over towns will get pissy and start throwing a strop and pooping out angry dudes and I'll make fuck all mobey cuz everyone hates me.
Is there much of a infrastructure downside to trying to take over everywhere besides having to defend shit all over the place and having a million towns to micromanage?
Why is Warhammer so boring bros?

>>169518107
>Is there much of a infrastructure downside to trying to take over everywhere
That depends very heavily on what faction you're playing. For example, Vampire Counts require a province to be corrupted before their units can freely travel those lands and any occupied land with low corruption receives a significant penalty to public order. Orcs can also have big Public Order problems.
Factions like Empire have a somewhat less difficult time of maintaining order until Chaos Corruption or Vampiric Corruption become prolific in its territories.
Also keep in mind there's a lot of roving bands of very pissed off Orcs and Beastmen who will try to fuck up your cities if you leave them unattended.
>>169518135
Ai isnt challenging enough and it doesnt make as many doomstacks as it usually does
>>169518282
>Mikael Jacsen
>>169516676
Gnomes were in 1st edition but got rightly BTFO because they are a weak and boring race unsuited to wargaming, and halfings out-charmed them for joke humanoid faction.
>>169513714
Sorry for the noobish question but what Warham game is this?
>>169518234
Kemmler and Krell are THE iconic warhammer characters.
Literally the first ever special characters made.
>>169518383
it is though, a fantasy war game is a lot more appealing than a game set during hunnic invasions of europe
>Master of the Court
>>169518234
Because he's an undead Chaos Warrior Grimgor that's why.
It's a good design, not everything is technical gameplay numbers you autistic bastard.
>>169518247
I would guess that from all the blitzkrieging Hitler does he qould be lvl 30 past turn 100 butI´ve never seen him get past lvl 20
>>169518107
As you keep expanding ai factions will dislike you more and after a certain number of turns of province treshold End Times will trigger.
So if you spread to this you wont build tall enough to hold stuff properly.

>>169518657
Mordheim I think
>>169518657
Mordheim. Same devs are making a Necromunda game too.
>>169518670
if you're a pleb
>>169518876
That's false
>Inb4 grand strategy
Grand strategy is even more for casuals, it just requires learning the mechanics, Total war has an aspect of skill that is completely absent from grand strategy
>>169519139
You mean casters?

Both TW and GS have mediocre ai that doesnt pose a challenge in the end and has to resort to cheating. Your point?
>>169518657
Crippled warband simulator
>>169519469
That it's not for casuals?
The battles are obviously a casual barrier, controlling 20, or 40 units at times.
Casuals play turn based games or mobas.
>>169519449
Didnt buy Orion actually.
17 shekels is overpriced as fuck.
>>169519328
They could have made it a Darksouls style RPG but I guess they liked the Warband thing too much.
>I usually just end up playing till I get the highest tier unit for the faction, after that there is really nothing to work towards
>Hopefully they take lessons learned and apply them to Necromunda.
>>169519305
>muh /gsg/ boogeyman
The "just requires to learn the mechanics" is valid for any game and is no argument for difficulty. You can beat TW at 12 and it's not even hard, we all started that way. Or are you saying that you couldn't play TW until you were an expert in strategy and tactics?
GS games require more planning ahead than quick thinking, it doesn't mean it's more casual. On the contrary, you have more chances of fucking your game up with no chance of recovering.
>>169519623
>what is slow mo
Also ai is shit at defending flanks or getting arty up his ass
>>169519623
Turn based games have more depth and mobas require faster thinking than TW, where you can just hammer&anvil all the time. In some games you don't even need the hammer part and you can win afk.
>>169519787
>GS games require more planning ahead than quick thinking
Not anymore since investments were replaced by MANA resources because casuals complained long term investment is hard
>>169519464
Is Mordheim really shit? I gave up after a few battles but thought i just needed to invest some timeand git gud.

>>169519253
>>169519328
>>169519464
Thanks for the responses. Anyway I binge watched some gameplays and it seems a bit like Valkyria Chronicles. That's isn't a bad thing, am I missing something?
>>169519787
I was better at videogames at 12 than I am now, because that's what I did all day.
You're being fucking retarded, did you consider yourself a casual when you started? You were playing an obscure strategy game about historical shit.
>>169519803
I disagree, also this isn't a matter of opinion, the twitch streams of the Warhammer launch proved my point.
>>169519946
>Turn based games have more depth
Doesn't mean shit, there is no skill involved, some are even RNG based.
>>169519982
>you can only talk about THESE grand strategy games, not the other ones
We're talking about the genre at large
>>169519787
The only paradox game worth shit is HoI2, all the others are entirely brainless and you need to gimp the shit out of yourself not to auto-win with practically any start.
>>169520082
>TW
>Skill
Can't stop laughing
>>169519991
Well those first battles are literally the whole game and you get 6 scenario missions per faction. If you enjoy grinding, sure.
>>169520108
Paradox is only GS thing and they killed it for casuals now
>>169519652
cool story, but we're not discussing price points nor business practices here
>>169519991
The learning curve is a fucking cliff but it is by no means bad, just not great. I suggest making use of the buddy system and taking advantage of the verticality of the maps. Also do not use Chaos.
>>169520179
The battles require skill, something Grand strategy completely lack
>>169520082
Being "hardcore" as opposed to casual means you invested time refining skill and learning mechanics of the game, something that you don't need that much before you start winning in TW.
>turn based doesn't require skill
>if there's RNG there is no skill
Oh, you're one of those types then.
>>169519991
>>169520231
The UI made me want to gouge my eyes out, it is rare for an entire game to be ruined just by the UI

The issue is they need to add legendary heroes, give them a unique skill or two and make them slightly harder to unlock and you are golden.
Theres tons for each race you could do easily
>Luthor Huss, Gotrek and Felix for Empire

>>169520336
Are you one of those "luck is part of skill" faggots?
Sorry for wasting my time.
>>169520179
Well yes, I'm thinking about HoI and Victoria mainly, the ones where you can actually lose.
>>169520405
Could be worse senpai.
Also who would be Skaven LL?
>>169520517
>what is the green knight?
>>169520540
No, I'm one of those "reacting to unexpected shit that can happen is part of skill", something that RNG often provides. I'd like to see how well you fare in steel panthers or toaw.
>>169520252
Have you actually played a grand strat?
If you dont think they take skill, then youve obviously put no effort into the TW diplomacy mechanics either.
TW diplomacy is just dumbed down Grand strategy diplomacy.
>>169520405
The trouble is, and we saw this a bit with the Total War title as well, that nobody seems to have much confidence in a Warhammer Fantasy Battle title at this point. So we end up with cheap games rushed out.
>>169520664
I havent been following the Bret stuff since I want to not be spoiled.
Is he an unlockable Legendary Hero?
>>169520658
Thanquol - Main Skaven faction
Ikit Claw - Clan Skryre
Lord Skrolk - Clan Pestilens
Queek Headtaker - Clan Mors (with a Karak-8-Peaks DLC)
So I just fought the Wood Elves, and I attacked their main place, but when I go into battle mode, I don't see a city at all. Is this because I don't have the DLC?
>>169520751
Grand Stats dont really take skill but they got a learning curve.
Same as TW games or CiV games.
You play MP to find a challenge.
>>169520751
They only require you to know what works and what doesn't, like any turn based game.
The first time you play XCOM it's hard as fuck, not because it involves skill, but because you don't know if the next thing you unlock will work or not, but it becomes a cakewalk once you finish the game once.
>>169520658
Gearbox is kind of known for this though.
>>169520816
Yes, Brets have a chivalry mechanic. Once it gets high enough you can summon the green knight as a legendary hero.

I know, I was shocked too
>>169520751
Bro TW isn't a strategy game, it's a battlefield simulator. The strategy map is just a means to get you into battle and provide a narrative of the battles purpose.
>>169521064
Fucking WHEN!!!!!!!!
>>169518660
Skarsnik and Gobbla proved that you can have a single unit with two individual models running separate animations.

Hopefully never.
>>169521064
>not bedding your own progeny
Are you stupid or something?
>>169520859
Wood Elves have no cities, they live in the trees. Thankfully they're getting a couple more defensive maps with the patch.
>>169521064
Fuck the retardation out of her
>>169520072
heres an example.
when you make an attack you can see your chance to hit beforehand lets see thast chance is 80%
you make a few attacks and none of them hit or do dmg
the reason for this is that the enemy has a chance to dodge/parry which isnt shown to you
so your hit chance doesnt really mean shit
personally i regret spending money on it
>>169521116
This is the best description of TW games, although Attila can also stand as a strategy game
>>169521403
>what is double roll
First your roll for hit and then you roll to pass dodge/parry. After a single parry/dodge they cannot do it anymore. Nothing strange about that.
>>169521403
>>169521578
XCOM does this bullshit too.

>>169522959
>Attila certainly is.
Literally babby's first GSG in terms of campaign map features, it's fucking teaspoon shallow compared to any decent GSG game, the only real difference is that TW:WH cuts out all the mindless busywork on the campaign map and stops pretending to be something it isn't. Attila doesn't actually require you to make any meaningful choices during campaign map gameplay.
In Attila you spend 2-3 minutes per turn fiddling with numbers, in Warhams you spend 1. You make the exact same number of real strategic decisions in both, that number being 0.
>>169523042

Which is why I'm so glad that Total War games has hollowed out the campaign map to the point where it has become what it was meant to be, a simple delivery system for the actual meat of the series, the battle gameplay that is completely unlike what any other game series offers.
People like you who pretend that Total War campaign map gameplay is or ever has been good, deep or worthwhile to ANY degree are delusional faggots, literally worse than the troglodytes in /gsg/

>>169524376
>Romans spam basic spearmen to death and get stomped
They only spam those shitty spears at the very start of the campaign
If they actually end up surviving through mid campaign they end up having Palatina and Herculiani Seniores stacks
>>169523693
No it's not lad. There are two or three versions available.
The one I use has them recruitable from either Lvl5 Altdorf if you're playing the Empire or The Great Slayer Shrine of Karak Kadrin if you're Dorfs.
They're pretty much legendary heroes. You can only have 1 and the AI can't recruit them
>>169524867
On higher difficulties barbarians will stomp them way before that.

The fuckin irony.
TW has always been about the mix of the two. The only reason the campaign map has always sucked is CA's incompetence.
>>169525393
Arguably all three are the same, Total Warhammer.

Rome 2 aint to shabby either with EE.
Also original Rome has god tier campaign with Romans.
>>169525201
It's literally just searching the workshop, but here I'm feeling generous
http://steamcommunity.com/workshop/browse/?appid=364360&searchtext=Gotrek&childpublishedfileid=0&browsesort=textsearch§ion=home
Note that they're pretty powerful. Not gamebreaking and they have their weaknesses, just keep in mind. They're better than the best melee heroes, but have no abilities or AoE effects. They just kill shit
>>169525393
if you want something based on late antiquity/early dark ages then Attila is the best for that
if you want something a bit more modern Shogun 2 allows you to have adventures in nippon shooting gooks
the most outlandish/most played and most recent one is warhammer, which is what i'm playing right now
Honourable mentions to Rome II and Empire for different historical periods but I didn't enjoy those as much as the more recent ones.
>>169525887
I asked for a link because I tried searching for them earlier and all I got was a cheaply made custom battle one
>>169525804
>original rome
is this a meme? that game cannot be seriously played without massive overhaul mods like Europa Barbarorum or Roma Surrectum II
That was back when CA devs were complete asstards
>>169525887

Correction. They have the Encourage AoE effect. That is it
what do you have to do to get bretonnia 1 day earlier? is registering on that TW page enough?

appreciate the info. Totalwarhammer looks amazing so I'm gonna start there. How have I not seen this game earlier. why the koreans not playing this instead of starcraft
>>169524737
The campaign map, even tho very basic compared to CKII and the like, always mattered in the playerbase. Especially with games such as Rome/M2
You'd always see people talk about their "story" in the campaign map, things like traits, man of the hour, trading/caravans, traits that influenced your generals speeches and so on, was always a part of the total war series
A shame Warhammer has a weak campaign map, it could've made the game truly great
>>169525960
>Romans are divided in 3 families
>each one goes in a different direction
>pleasing senate for support
>once one of them gets too big realm divide and civil war happens and you finally take Rome
I wish Rome 2 had as good campaign as that.
>>169526150
it's 12$ on humble bundle
>>169526150
>comparing RTS to battleground simulator
Also get it from Humble Bundle monthly for 12 bux
>>169525960
I think it is pretty much agreed that newer total wars have a terrible/dumb down campaign and nicer battles while older total wars had better campaigns.
>>169525479
>TW has always been about the mix of the two.
Who gives a shit what it's "been about".
Battles have always been good and fun. The Campaign map has always been bad and not fun.
Why the fuck are you desperately trying to defend the Attila campaign map when even you recognize that it's shallow and shitty?
The Warhammer campaign map experience is like a teaspoon of shit that you have to swallow before you can get to what you're really there for.
The Attila campaign map experience is like a big ol' tablespoon of shit with a dab of syrup on the top. The syrup doesn't actually conceal the taste of the shit and you have to spend longer with shit in your mouth before you can get to the actual meal.
It's been 6 fucking games in this series since the last time CA made a game with even semi-redeemable campaign map gameplay, unless they demonstrate that they even care about that aspect it is far better if they simply make it less intrusive.

Total War games are a little slower than Starcraft as you have to build your armies up beforehand and deal with civil management.
The civics aren't quite as extensive as Grand Strategy games like EUIV or CKII but its still more than what you find in Starcraft.

I need more missile troops for this fucking war. And more flame shit to beat Durthu.
>had all of my arty and skirmishers trained on Durthu at the end of the fight and he still survived.
So how is the new patch looking, has anything been fixed?
Any good videos I should watch before I get into Total Warhammer? Never played any TW game before.

You could run it as a battlefield+points based game but RTS point is you can adapt your stuff and TW battlefields would be a bitch to cast/spectate

The patch notes are miles fucking long, but we won't know for sure how it all comes together until tomorrow
>>169527189
There is Zerkovich on youtube that makes a lot of tutorials on basic stuff, strategies, hotkeys, factions etc.
Don't know how good are they but I think It's a good start
>>169527189
Don't spoil anything for yourself. Just jump in and play. Take your time with every turn, reading tooltips and clicking buttons.
>>169527189
Honestly if I were you I would wait until tomorrow to start playing, there's a patch dropping with a ton of new stuff
>>169526150
>why the koreans not playing this instead of starcraft
TWW would make for a great multiplayer game if it was a bit better balanced. The unit rosters translate into multilplayer better than in singleplayer, since it's based off a tabletop game anyway, but most people think of total war as a single player game.
>>169527154
I vaguely remember two Thunderer stacks blowing up the Hitler Tree before it could do any harm. Did they really buff him that hard?
>>169527449
Well how many anons here even play TWW in MP? Raise yer hands lads.
>>169526393
>>169526628
Grand wipe-out-everyone wars between a pack of generic pajama-wearer factions was more immersion and deep than the current campaigns with all their new mechanics?
tell me you're a nostalgic faggot but don't try to say stupid bullshit like that.
Rome 1's campaign was only remotely playable when a mod like RSII was installed (and admittedly the best campaign I ever played was in that mod, and it completely overhauls the game). Vanilla Rome 1 was a fucking meme
>>169527548
My thunderers didn't do shit. This is a pretty leveled up and geared up Durthu though.
anyone has attila campaign faction roll chart?
>>169527813
previous total wars had family trees, crusades, senate/pope opinions, interesting character development/traits, had the choice of building shit anywhere, mercenaries, unit upgrades, unit retraining, really cool encomic system (empire) and thats just off the top of my head.
in warhammer you build the money building in every settlement, mass tier 1 units, autoresolve each battle, and auto regen all your units. theres no strategy. its obvious they want to bringing in a bigger audience and made the game much simpler. I play warhammer the most right now, but you are full of shit if you think the campaign is any good.

there's no new MTW, and alot of the newer medieval mods for new TW games fulfill that.
>interesting character development/traits
which was completely dropped out in ETW and NTW, the two shit-games in the character development field of Total war.
>had the choice of building shit anywhere
RTW: spam roads, markets, port everywhere
MT2W: Good building system
ETW & NTW: shit-tier campaigns
R2TW & ATW: Good, deep building system. Much deeper than anything before
TWWH: A provincial system, special buildings for special cities, trees to unlock other buildings, extremely varied building rosters for different factions
>mercenaries
they still fucking exist, just not in the manner of "click this tab for instantly available brown-recolored meme troops"
>unit retraining
you're bitching about replenishment but this was essentially replenishment, except you had to throw the troops in a city and click a button and spend cash instead of simulating a real logistical replenishment system
>in warhammer you build the money building in every settlement
do you even play the game?
>mass tier 1 units, autoresolve each battle
smells like RTW and M2TW
>and auto regen all your units
bitches about units regenerating when this was a mechanic since ETW

march somewhere
sealclub shit AI pajama armies
no diplomacy required
no real difficulty
>its obvious they want to bringing in a bigger audience and made the game much simpler
now you're just raving like a little retard. Total wars have always been simple, and with the massive level of asymmetry in Warhammer it's far from being "simplified". Go wank your nostalgia boner somewhere else.
Here's to hoping the next total war is in a Chinese setting
>>169530157
Stop it you spergs
Does beastmen exist in new world?
If yes i wonder will we get some new lords there

>>169524342
Other than Brets which I'm now hyped for:

>>169532431
If its a black dudeyou dont really expect him to swim
>>169532334
because vampires and gobshits. Traditionally you want to silence the faggotry of any imperial haters around the center of the map, remove the small green niggers, and than go on a massive total war with the vampires, and try to get it over (or mostly over) before the snowniggers come pouring.
Now you have to do all of this while keeping an eye out for the tree niggers
>>169532542
thats the idea, yes

>>169532512
talabec is hardcoded to love you every game, sirland and wissenland never go to war with you because of nonaggression pact
>>169532552
skarsnik is no threat once you get handgunners and instagib his giant spider, imperial distrust is a GOOD thing because they are more likely to go to war with eachother, woodelves get shit on by handgunners and knights. chaos only spawn quickly if you breeze through the chapter missions, and vc only spawn armies full of zombies from my experience
