Speaking of the End Times, and ignoring the fluff that comes with it, how would people feel about certain End Times units being added to the game? For instance, if Khorne gets his own faction, he could use "Skullreapers" and "Wrathmongers" and such. Skaven could use their Verminlords and Stormfiends.

What is a good expansion path for Isabella? I started by taking Castle Templehof before it could build walls and signing peace with Mannlet. Then I took Eschen to cut off Mannlet expansion path, leaving him blocked between me and the dwarves. My plan was to destroy the rest of Templehof, build a big enough stack to take Castle Drakenhof (already at 14 garrison and a stack and a half). Thoughts?

Vamp economy comes from high tier buildings and upgraded cities. Your trade, assuming it even happens, is dogshit. The reason why vamps are so fucking easy is that turtling in western/eastern sylvania and teching up hard will give you a stronger economy than ruling half of the Empire at tier 2/3.

I did a campaign as Vlad yesterday.

Mannfred's army wasn't there, for some reason, but it was still a tough fight.

>Da Vinci: Total War

Rotating tanks, a fleet of one manned fliers doing bombing runs, retarded helicopters, just Assassin's Creed that shit up.

Have different factions emerge and take the designs of old inventors and play it straight.

A greek fleet using greek fire and THE CLAW OF ARCHIMIDES. Supreme Chinese architecture. The resurgence of Egypt. Stupid shit like that

the east front has had the most fighting for the longest time so most of the legions there are full of legionaries and conscripts with the most experienced generals (who have been fighting since liberating greece)

the central europe forces were put together quickly since the barbarian invasion was very sudden so it's mostly hastily conscripted light inf (who barely stand up to even the least formidable barbarian army)

Royal Pegasus knights are amazing and beat every large unit in the game aside from blood knights and araknarok spiders.

Questing knights beat all infantry without anti-large, what need is there for grail guardians. They also hold up against blood knights well.

Grail Knights smash all cav into smithereens aside from blood knights.

Infantry is on par with other factions but much cheaper, Empire cant even compete with Bretonnian infantry.

Options in peasant archers provides lots of diversity, and a way to obliterate units like claw of Nagash.

Some of the strongest LL at the moment too.

BRETONNIA STRONG, perhaps to strong at the moment what do people think?

Royal hippos are pretty shit, Pegasus knights beat them at 400 gold less and Hippos dont beat any large targets maybe they are better vs infantry.

I'd personally like to see an alternate history tw centered around a middle-ages analog where monotheism never became a thing and the roman empire still existed in some form, then carry that game concept through the renaissance, the pike and shot era, and through the 18th and 19th centuries. One glorious Roman empire spreading it's government, culture and reasonably tolerant religious norms over 2/3rds of the earths surface eventually. Or play as one of the other powers, resist their expansion and try to make your own empire instead.

Well I'd prefer a historical title, but if they absolutely insisted then maybe a Paradise Lost themed Total War with angelic, demonic and human armies. Game takes place simultaneously on three different planes of existence, Heaven, Hell and Earth. Lots of crazy magic and mechanics like soul harvesting, calling down Godly/Satanic powers and moving up and down through the various levels of hell and heaven.

I could tell you when alberic rekitted his army in coroune he was resplendant in glory. Then the following shit hit the fan around turn 60-70ish within 2 turns the following happened.


Norsca raids 5-6 stacks.
chaos early bird doomstacks 4 stacks, double
hellcannon shenannigons.

Skarsnik came through the southeastern pass, 3 full stacks.
Beastmen came from south and northeastern pass, 2 stacks minotaurs.
Estalia and friend came from the south, between them 4 stacks.
Tree hitler attack, 3 stacks.

Event culminating in rebellions all over my territory.
Alberich has fought his way south, then north, then south, replenishing lost units from freshly captured/recaptured settlements and this is all he has left.
The reason for the aggressive push on welfs is I MUST BURN THE FUCKIN TREE.

>>169789838
Depends what you want your lord to do, large mounts like griffins are always worth it because the charge and armor piercing you get allows you to kill lords in a few charges.

Horses are good for casters for the mobility and mass it gives.

A melee lord on foot is good at beating enemy blobs, and they wont have the weakness to anti-large however they become ineffective at beating enemy lords due to lack of mobility.

Online a mount is almost necessary to prevent getting cycle charged.

Big 'Uns have "Bigger and 'arder" which is more or less anti larger. So any Big 'Un units should be thrown at anything big or at enemy cav, but unlike spearmen they're also good against regular units.

Otherwise it's just the usual hammer and anvil tactics. Only use their archers as a means to break enemy morale as they suck at dealing damage. Try to get some anti armor to help you against the Dwarfs, so sneaky skulkers/squigs/arty

Other wise just try and read their ability's and stats and work your way from there.

Let me tell you about Mannfred in End Times: Nagash, because even though it's End Times, it's hilarious.

0) Gets locked by Gelt's magic in Sylvania. Mannfred can't get out. Arkhan can, no big deal.
1) Gets betrayed by lesser vampires because he has zero respect from any remaining von Carsteins, because he is a dick, a traitor and not a true von Carstein (what it means to be a von Carstein is discussed and it's a pretty good read)
2) Faces Eltharion the Grim in combat. Eltharion out-fights him with contemptous ease, even though Mannfred is a super-strong vampire and "fights as he never fought before", attacking so fast he burns his arms by air friction. Eltharion doesn't care. Mannfred is left severely wounded, Eltharion doesn't even bother to finish him off.
3) Mannfred tries to fry Eltharion with magic. Gets half his arm chomped off by Eltharion's mortally wounded griffin.
4) Regens a bit and rushes to intercept Arkhan's ritual. Arkhan has protected himself by a forcefield. Eltharion passed using a magic sword. Mannfred the great wizard is left banging his fists on a forcefield he can't overcome. Gets told off impatiently by Arkhan, as if he's a wimpy child.
5) As Nagash comes back, Mannfred is reduced to a trembling mess. As Nagash brings Vlad back to unlife, Mannfred completely loses it, crying and whimpering.
6) Mannfred steals Arkhan's extremely powerful magic sword and attacks Vlad, who's weaponless, naked and very much disoriented by being brought back
7) Vlad grabs a random Grave Guard's rusty sword, disarms Manny with a masterful feint and has him completely at his mercy, and only Nagash's intervention saves Manny (stupid, Nagash, stupid)

That's in addition to being outgambitted by Arkhan on every step.

it seems that warhammer, just like any other poorly written fantasy has powerlevels that shift all over the place to fit the narrative, its why I generally dislike fantasy, they at will change the rules and the strenghts of their character to fit the story, instead of writing a story that fits the established character

capeshit has the same problem

that's doubly problem with Warhams, since there's getting more and more magic in the world as End Times approach, and so powercreep is real.

in Times of Legends most powerful Chaos sorcerer in Norsca & Empire was more of a prophet. a Bloodthirster required a divine intervention to kill. Magic weapons were extremely rare - just three of them in the greatest battle of that age. Chaos dudes were mostly marauders, with no gothic plate or daemonic weapons. Look at Warhammer now.

EVERYTHING would be a perfect immpersion sandbox RPG game with great crafting system and multi-planet world made of voxels, where anything can be crafted, and amount of resources rivals that of Dwarf Fortress and then you have realistic and though-out relationship system allowing you to build your own community or maybe an army and conquer a kingdom, etc., when extremely in-depth grand political system kicks in, where you have to juggle attentions and opinions of hundreds of players, including your own and others' internal factions and sub-factions, and manage the flow of all those resources you can use in crafting. now, you also must micromanage a lot of stuff, like peoples' happiness when you're a small community, but you can delegate that to other people, who don't do it automatically, but are living NPCs, so they can fail, be innatentive, be bribed or even distracted by you talking to them, and fail at their tasks. Don't forget that all cities and regions are real-scale and all building ordered built by you or your delegates can actually be visited and overseen from planning to building to painting, since it's an RPG. And if you order, say, a Blacksmith built, you'll be able to visit it and see an NPC forge swords, and not a single gramm will be just generated, it will be accounted for from all the iron you import, steel you smelt, and that sword won't turn into just a number or disappear, it will be lie on a shelf in a barrack. And if you take it, some soldier will be left without a sword, because every sword requisitioned by the barracks is tracked - not in a virtual table, but in actual ledger you can peruse in-game, and even see how the quartermaster is writing it.
add to that magic, sex and multiple races and cultures, a several-millenia timeline, so you can develop and go for the stars and colonize other planets, and then you'll have a nice game. THEN IT WILL BE EVERYTHING.

Gotta click the enemy, has nothing to do with running either, once they're in range they'll start the charge regardless. Also they have to make contact with the target you clicked clean. If they start the charge animation and some other unit gets in the way, say bye-bye to your bonus

I was hoping for the Bretonnian confederation to be a bit more smooth. I have excellent relations with Artois, researched the tech but they do not give a single fuck about confederating with me.
>>
>>169798423
Anyone?
>>
>>169800678
They're more likely to confederate if they feel threatened.
Also, everyone immediately agrees to confederation once Chaos shows up.
>>
>>169800678
They won't confederate with you whilst they're strong, why should they? Keep an eye on the strength meter in the diplomacy screen. If it drops dramatically that's your opportunity to strike.

I know this but if a faction is strength rating 45 and they still don't want to confederate, it gets a bit tedious.
>>
>>169801609
Judging by the size and scope of many of the cities i can understand only having one wall, but i wish they'd make the siege go into the city rather than having the VP right by the entrance. Like having a multi-tier siege where you fought up to the city proper or something.
>>
>>169801943
I think this sounds reasonable for faction capitals. Taking Altdorf or Karak Eight Peaks feels a little underwhelming at the moment.

>>
Should I start a new campaign as Isabella or Fay Enchantress?
>>
>>169802051
>>169801943

The problem with that is without a proper retreat/reposition mechanic either you'd end up never using the more advanced parts and would fight in the walls anyways, or you'd just use the walls as a means to weaken opponents and fight exclusively on the city center.


Maybe if the Siege had to be fought on two-three maps by the invading army, the defending garrison was divided by those three maps and you could choose in which map to deploy your army maybe that'd work.
>>
>>169802385
Yes, the siege battle for a major faction capital should be divided into three separate fights. A battle at the outer walls, a battle in the streets and a battle for the citadel or inner sanctum. That would force you to bring a minimum of two stacks to attempt it.
>>

Is this the new "Bretonnia will have grailways and a questiness meter that summons an extra army when it fills up"?
>>
>>169802494
That'd only work if the nerfed the SHIT out of the wall-building towers, or if they were only present at the outer walls.

Clockwork bombs can allow a single stack to defend against two or three, so I can't imagine the bullshit it'd be if they had to fight through that then face a full strength army behind another set of walls.
>>

How do you guys build your Bret armies? I feel like no matter what I'm going to need an infantry core and some bows so I'm easily using 12 peasants in a single army.

One of the biggest problems I have now is replenishment because even though the tooltip says I have 50% reduced replenishment from going over the peasant limit, I'm actually getting zero.

Depends on who i'm facing. Against chaos or dwarves the only peasants worth using are poison archers, and polearm men at arms. For any other faction men at arms w/ shields hold the line well enough especially if you put points into the red tree.

My armies are usually this:
1x Lord
1x Damsel
4x Men at Arms w/ polearm
2x Battle Pilgrims
3x archers
2x trebuchet
5x cav
2x flying cav
>>
>>169805552
My army comp was almost the exact same as yours just peasants instead of squires which I see now was a huge mistake and griffons instead of pegasus.
>>
>>169805972
I really didn't even use my squires much that battle, I was able to work with the other bret army that shows up and use their cav charges as anvils for my cav/pegasi to hammer. The biggest threat was the 2 hellcannons that the ai seems programmed to protect as they kept a halberd unit back there, preventing my pegasi to knocking it out until the rest of archaon's army had been destroyed

Halberds and Lancers for me. Pretty neat.
>>
>>169805039
I had only 6 infantry units (greatswords/halberd),4 grail knights,lots of knights of the realm and 2 pegasus so i can take out the 2 cannons quickly when they are no longer guarded.

ps -just don't facetank their halberd units with your cav.

Alright folks, am about to hit realm divide as Tokugawa and am in a bit of a pickle in regards as to where I should expand next.

My domains are in white, with the locations of my armies marked by the green spots. The blue spots show the vassals I created in order to limit my border with the Hattori, in black/red, who are currently military allies but will likely turn on me immediately when realm divide hits. The big problem I am facing right now is that I don't have Iron to fully upgrade the smithing in my military province, as well as the fact that I don't have a craftworks province for recruiting ranged units. Normally I would just go take the ones that the Date currently control, but I am worried that I will trigger realm divide with my forces far away from the frontlines, where most other factions will come from to fuck my shit up

As a side question: Is it worth it make an accuracy province capable of recruiting tokugawa mounted gunners? I plan on recruiting some for every army once I have the means, but that would mean that I probably would have to recruit regular Samurai archers instead of Bow Monks for my foot archers, which seems like it isn't worth it. As of right now since I don't ever really use katana cav I could just build a gunnery in my cav province, but that would mean that they don't get the accuracy bonus

Nigga what are you even saying. I'm /m/ as fuck and Battletech has way more stuff than Gundam. Gundam at any given era has maybe 2-4 capital ships for each side, while Battletech always has dozens of drop ships and more capital ships. Gundam has 1 token tank for each side and they're arbitrarily gimped, while Battletech has whole industrial rosters of hover/wheeled/tracked tanks that can go toe to toe with mechs. Battletech is filled with factions while Gundam always has around 2. It's not a bad thing, but it's the reality of comparing a decades old wargame setting to a syndicated TV show settings.

I love both of them, but Battletech is way more fitting for a wargame except for the fact that the fanbase is made up entirely by grognards like me and it has trouble appealing to the masses.

This is also not Total War, so we should probably shut up.

>>169807516
Necromancer Heroes mean you can focus your formidable martial Lords on unlocking Martial Skills
Vampire Heroes give you more evocation and buff/debuff variety when embedded in a LL army
Wights are best used for their public order deployment
Banshees are best used for assassination and blocking enemy armies movements

I'd advise using one of the starting Vampire Heroes embedded in a Von Carstein army from the early game and having another go off to find Mousillon for a chance at recruiting the Red Duke. Which one you embed is personal choice based on which of their Lores you prefer. Shadows has the better anti-army spells; Death still has good anti-army spells but its most basic spell can also be used to snipe enemy lords.
Oh and dont embed Necromancer Heroes in armies until you have like... 3-4 of them, they're good but they're better for their national deployment; discounts on buildings is a big deal after all.

1. The faction was already halfway in the game.
2. A lot of their new stuff used pre-existing assets.
3. CA is constantly refining their DLC's and faction mechanics. (compare Beastmen to Wood Elves, or Grim and Grave to King and Warlord).
4. Because they're best faction.

Fell Bats are good slot filler for a mostly flying force; using them to soak up ranged fire and run disruption on enemy ranged is good. If they die you dont sweat it; just make sure their sacrifice is actually (somewhat) meaningful. Using them to flank and attack archers is good; forming a ring to protect the units attacking artillery is fine; attacking infantry unsupported is a no-no.

I just marched into his lands on turn 2 after recruiting extra spearmen and sieged him. He only recruits zombies that early on, so the main threat were the Grave Guard, Vargheists, and Crypt Horrors from the garrison. I used my cav to kill his Vargheists and then lured him, his Crypt Horrors, and the Grave Guard away from my main line before running back and rear charging the shit out of his zombies and the remaining Grave Guard. After that the actual siege was an easy victory.

So with the Vampire factions now being split, what sort of changes should I be making to my early game campaign strategy as them?

It definitely seems like the Von Carsteins are the better faction to play as, especially with the extra unique building in Drakenhof. But I'd really like to have Mannfred on my team as well (I could care less about Kemmler and Ghorst honestly).

Any advice if I were to try to confederate in Mannfred rather than just wiping him out? Or heck even if I was feeling saucy and wanted to try to confederate in the Red Duke as well, to make a clean sweep of the legendary vamps?

Aside from when I'm playing as angrund, I find it's very easy to outnumber green skins, as they rarely use stock units like orc boyz, and dorfs warriors are cheap and plentiful.

>hard caps are lazy
True, but they make a ton of sense for ultra rare units. Another way to balance it might be a soft cap, where every unit extra over the soft cap costs a lot more upkeep (2-3x).

>>169812853
>>169812864
>>169812978
Given that the empire is consistently depicted as a richer realm, it still doesn't make sense that their farms produce no coin, and that there's no "mercantile center" type buildings to represent the activities of the wasteful burghers.

I'd settle for a small income bump to tailors guilds, a small income attached to farms and pastures, and some sort of trade depot structure

You literally can, though. Both in lore and on tabletop taking a direct hit from a blackpowder cannon will fuck up all but the strongest of magical creatures. Mages in Warhammer support armies of mundane men/whatever using non magical weapons. Orks with fully automatic weapons and internal combustion engines would tear the world apart in no time.

The Ork wouldn't really mingle, rather he'd fight the orcs because that's how their society works, and he'd win because DAKKA. Orcs die in 2-3 handgun shots, so the heat a Ork'd be packing would obliterate them.

Plus Ork's weapons run on make-believe, so it's not like he'd worry about going out of ammo.


Combine the fact that in 40k the more an Ork wins the bigger and stronger he gets and you got an end of the world in your hands that'd make the End Times look like playground pretend fights

By mingle I meant that if there were Waagh! they would join/lead it.
Sure, shootaz would pack a punch but an arrow to the throat kills the same.
I also disagree on the ammo - sure, Orkz make things make believe, but it works subconciously (i.e. red is fast and what do you know, red vehicles are actually faster!). But it wouldn't work that way in case of ammo (since afaik they use actual ammo and they expect to use ammo).
>the more an Ork wins the bigger and stronger he gets
Sure, but I think that could pretty much be extended to fantasy variants too, it's just isn't played straight most of the time since the whole "make-believe" isn't as pronounced.
As for Warboss fights, it's not like fantasy Orks don't have their fair share of, let's say, tough as an iron-hide characters.

There's also dragons, both realms have daemons etc.

A couple of archers can't hurt, but it really depends on what you're fighting. They're great against pretty much everything except for Chaos.
Pilgrims obviously deal less damage, but I'm pretty sure they can survive for a bit longer than Foot Squires, who get memed on even by goblin archers. It doesn't really matter either way though, both can last long enough for your cav to trample everything.

Woodelfs are so fucking retarded, I hate this faction. They didn't do shit until Chaos showed up, then Orion confederated all the other clans in a few turns and marched 5 stacks against me; attacking the provinces previously belonging to Parravon.

I mean I never fought them, never trespassed and all they care about is fucking up the player who already has to deal with enough shit.

I guess it would kinda help if Woodelfs would be dragged into the war against Chaos but right now they just don't have any real enemies and can endlessley backstab and piss off everyone around them.

You recruit 4 archers and siege/take Marienburg after you got these guys. The siege is just the usual cheese with your archers.

The orc settlement is highly dependant on your difficulty settings and whether or not the AI is being a dick and building garrison instead of anything else.

If you don't defeat Orion by the time he starts confederating (he confederates each faction in 4 turns) you pretty much lost.

There was a point where I kept killing 2-3 stacks a turn and his strength in diplo WOULDNT GO DOWN, he literally spawn 2-3 stacks every turn and you just can't come back, also he literally spams dragons, treemen and waywatcher, it's impossible to beat.

This was on legendary, he started around turn 70, I reckon the only solution is killing Orion before that since he's the only one able to confederate, destroy the tree TOO otherwise he will just confederate even if he has no cities or armies left because the tree is considered a settlement for his faction.

/tg/er here. Yes, yes there are. Or at the very least, were until very recently. But there are a handful of not-Warhammer games that have risen up in the wake of the nuking of the setting like Kings of War, 9th Age, and others.

As for what they think? Overall opinion of TWW seems very positive, DLC jewery notwithstanding.

Asking for the opinion on AoS is just begging for a flamewar though, so good luck with that.

Because one of Bretonnia's gimmicks is the unification of the Realm.

With other factions, the negative public order and the faction penalties are to prevent you from simply confederating whenever possible and to make holding off on confederations a tactical choice. If your realm is straining already, you might not want to confederate your neighbor just yet.

With Bretonnia, you're encouraged to confederate as soon as you can, that's their thing.

What units do you bloodsuckers run? I've been ignoring the spooky tree building and going with skeletons and monsters. Seems to work okay unless the AI is literally 90% archer cavalry or something.

You don't. You just squat in Bretonnia because there's literally nothing to do since the map is so restrictive.

I noticed Isabella von Carstein has unique red talent line. I was wondering if one uses many fell bats would it be better to have them in Vlads army for the +12 melee attack or Isabella's for the +12 melee defense and +6 armour piercing damage. I ask cuz fellbats have such awful melee attack I'm left wondering if that's a bigger deal than the extra melee defence and armour piercing damage with Isabella.

yeah, there can never be any squabbles over inheritance if everybody automatically marries their sister or cousin

Let the public order drop.

Fell bats are shit and you should only use them very early game until you get better harassment units. It's not worth investing skill points to buff them.

Also is it just me, or are flying units in general pretty overrated for vamps? My army endgame was mostly graveguards with wraiths and monsters and I had no trouble on very hard.

Let public order drop and enjoy free xp and chivalry

Just make sure you don't give your neighbours military access, or they will steal your kills

Never happened for me, the other dukes loved me to death but would not confederate until Chaos showed up.

Yeah you're supposed to confederate so that you don't need to have to expand militarily.

Its so that you can send your armies campaigning as soon as you want.

Playing vh/vh and fuck me if the chaos invasion wasn't hard. Empire and dwarfs were busy with undead and chaos just steamrolled the northern empire and razed Couronne. I was busy trying to unfuck the AI's bretonnian economy but it was hard to do while fighting beastmen in the south to save my money making provinces I had just confederated, I lost a few more provinces but fighting the sieges in order to kill off their important units was key it allowed me to mop up their armies on the field. Losing 2 settlements hurt but was worth it to kill Kholek and destroy all the hell cannons. And I just finished destroying the chaos invasion, and its just time to bring the fight to them.

Also I'm playing as alberic and i didn't save scum since I'm planning on playing legendary difficulty but as louen.

and now i realize I have to confederate as soon as possible so that the other retarded lords don't fuck up their economies.

This, its a turn or two. If you win the battle you'll get more honor than you lose, Just don't wait in ambush, but if an ambush is played right you'll only need it for one turn anyways.

The hard part is learning when to flee, Losing the blessing really sucks for your mainline units.

for when fighting chaos.

You weren't strong enough then. What I like to do is max out my armies until I'm strong enough to confederate with someone and then basically sack their entire province and turn it into a gold farm so I can make stronger armies to confederate even more. I had so many excess lords I started sending them solo into battle to die.

>>169825460
Vargheists do work as shock rear-charge units and harassers at any point in the game, in my experience. As long as you're not trying to have them attack dedicated melee units unsupported.

And Terrorgheists are just absolute shitwreckers.
>>
>>169825957
You know that you can just disband lords like regular units?
>>
wow i sure love new threads
>>
>>169826097
Can you really? I know you can do that with hero units but I didn't think you could do that with lords. I feel kinda stupid now.
