Reeeeeee! What the fuck? Why is my unit upkeeep so high as warriors of chaos? I can have 5 full stacks of peepee poopoo beastmen and still be making an income every turn just from technology, horde buildings, and characters traits. But if I try that with Warriors of chaos I'm 50,000 gold in debt every turn trying to support just Archaon and Sigvald with full stacks of chosen. I even have all of the technologies, character traits, camp followers, and horde buildings to keep the cost down.

Outriders seem ok, but I have struggled to use ranged/skirmish cavalry to much affect in any of these games, so it's probably a problem with me more than the units.

>>171875850
>being this mad that a youtuber accurately described the reliability of any "leaks" posted in this general

>>171875681
To be serious: I found pistols to be okay. They never won a battle for me, but they are good for harassing skirmishers and making sure routing units run off the map. Never used outriders. If you want light cav then sure, buy 'em, but I wouldn't call them essential by any definition.

The Grim and the Grave: 4/5 new legendary and generic lords, new units, and Regiments of Renown give the Empire some new options of army compositions and give Vampires some serious support capabilities
The King and the Warlord: 5/5 the new units are really fun, the lords are cool, many of the Regiments of Renown are quite unique and distinct from their generic unit counterparts, and the campaigns for both are some of the most memorable in the game
Realm of The Wood Elves: 4/5 interesting very different kind of campaign with two subfactions whose differing penalties help encourage different army compositions, however Orion looks like a slack jawed yokel

Tips for playing Shogun 2 on Hard?

Normal is far too easy but Hard takes the piss sometimes. Within the first 4 or 5 turns I've got impossible stacks of Ashi units or armies containing 4 or 5 Yari Samurai units. How do I fight against this when I'm constantly getting stacks that outnumber me thrown at me? It's impossible to hold territory as well since a random faction will always declare war and then shit out a doomstack from a random ship somewhere.

Skaven Black Hunger.
They get ridiculous growth but if you have excess population they start to starve and you get penalties to happiness and a special frenzy effect on the battlefield.

I would really love a special secondary world map for skaven, dwarfs and night gobbos, but it probably won't happen. I'd have the skaven prioritise fighting amongst themselves and other underground races so that none of the surface races see much of them until the late game when they sort themselves out and appear out of nowhere to fuck shit up.

No
https://www.videogamer.com/news/total-war-warhammer-is-official-coming-soon-to-pc

The first information on the game only listed Empire, dwarves, orcs and vampires as playable.
This then lead people to throw a shitfest because Chaos wasn't confirmed for being in the game while being represented in the cinematic. Initially CA had only planned to give Chaos a limited roster similar to Bretonnia on release and then expand it later with dlc.
Due to the backlash, CA then made a deal with Sega for more funding to put Chaos in Day-one, but with the clause Chaos became pre-order content.

Good mods for Rome 1?

Yeah okay then you should have no problems at all posting a source from CA saying 'Chaos Warriors were NPC only but we listened and change it so you could play them' then. Also they are never going to get overhauled they are 100% finished as a faction excluding renown units. This is Chaos WARRIORS not Chaos DAEMONS.

No more replies for you, you're obviously retarded.

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2015-12-03-total-war-developer-disheartened-by-pre-order-dlc-reaction

>"So in TW: Warhammer's case, we had our four main playable races sorted," explained Simpson, "and we've planned for Chaos to have a big role to play later in the trilogy. But we really wanted Chaos Warriors in the main game, even without DLC - to give a big, bad end of game 'boss' enemy Race for all players. But we couldn't do that within the resources for the main game. So we added it as the pre-order incentive that also gets sold on day one - making Chaos Warriors fully playable but also giving us the extra resources to add them as an AI race for everyone.
>"So is adding Chaos as a pre-order incentive 'cut content'? I think the opposite is true. If we didn't add it to the pre-order, it would have been DLC later on and not in the game at release."

This isn't what i had in mind when i ordered you to charge

>>171884101
That source, which I already knew about, LITERALLY states what im saying. Chaos was always going to be in TWW as Chaos Warriors as the main enemy but as a preorder only faction to generate more revenue

But please do point out the sentence that says they were a NPC faction and backlash changed CAs minds

>>171884265
That's a pretty comfy looking dog walking club though.

>>171884246
That's what I hope. I'm just worried about CA's policy regarding 'no dlc for paid dlc" and how that's going to play out.

>>171884221
If you bothered to stop shitposting entirely baseless claims you would realize CA never stated Chaos were an NPC faction, or that they only added Chaos a few months before release because of the 'trailer backlash that shows chaos but somehow people thought chaos wasn't in the game even though everyone knew they were'

No more replies for you, everyone can see you're retarded.

True, at least it was nice and orderly.
They kept the line formation for the whole battle too.

>>171884348
New Chaos will be their own playable factions. Old World Chaos will get the roster expansions that accompany them, but you won't be able to play their factions without owning the original Warriors of Chaos DLC.

>>171884246
Chaos Warriors and Chaos Daemons are two entirely separate factions. The expansion adds daemons, which is what they are talking about, not about 'fixing' Chaos Warriors.

No they're not. Warriors of Chaos are finished minus Renown units and possibly some LLs.

>>171884654
it's been a while since we know that the second expansion will be chaos undivided

>>171884439
Chaos Warriors are still missing a huge part of their identity which is Marks of Chaos, which will likely come with Chaos Daemons.

Chaos Daemons will also likely have interaction with Chaos Warriors to some extent, improving on their campaign map options.

Idiot.

so I downloaded a bunch of the reskin mods for different factions but at some point realized all my doods had yellow uniforms

got rid of all the mods but my doods are still yellow... any options left to me except a reinstall? any folders I should delete?

Chaos is so very far from done. I don't think they even have a third of their army book in game yet.

This? What makes more sense, having WoC+Deamons as the main chaos factions
Or combining the two so you can break them into 5 factions. The 4 god aliments plus Chaos Undivided.

The latter is more lore friendly and nets more opportunities for that DLC money.

Okay kiddo. You're 100% right. Chaos Warriors as we have now will get 100% scrapped and started again as Chaos of Warrior Daemons

Until you figure this out there is nothing to talk about.

>>171885127

When the fuck did I call them an NPC faction?

All I'm saying is that fixing Chaos makes a lot more sense during the Chaos themed expansion.

The idea that Chaos Warriors and Chaos Daemons are mutually exclusive is wrong, they share overlapping units and mechanics

>>171877535

Neither, its going to be Daemons, Warriors of Chaos as one of the minor Warrior factions and then Chaos Undivided for 3 factions total.

This makes the most sense by far

Chaos Warriors will be the factions on the map we have but with new LLs and losing Archaon. Chaos Daemons will get unique lords that can only require daemons of that lords domination. Then United will be Archaon and the ability to choose a bit of everything.

Alternatively you start as Warriors of Chaos with Archaeon, then become United later on.

Either way, its going to be three Chaos factions with the fourth being Chaos Dwarfs.

I wish the rumored Chaos expansion was coming first :( I really want my Blood Thirsters...

Personally I'm really hoping for some daemons + warriors in god specific armies. People are talking about how they are different factions but them being split up is actually pretty recent- Hordes of Chaos was a combined book back in 6th edition- and mixing warriors/daemons makes a lot more thematic sense than daemons for a bunch of different gods, while opening up more possible interesting campaign mechanics for each god.

Still they were split up so I'm not that hopeful for interesting chaos- but it could happen.

Should I switch my crossbowmen to handgunners?

I really hope one of the kill animations for the Lizzs is eating off the face of an enemy

So Lizzies are getting Amazons as a fast, low armor, high damage unit with stalker, right?

>>171884798
>Warriors of Chaos are finished

They're missing 3-4 LLs, a generic lord, and like 6 or 7 units. Of the factions currently in-game they're the most incomplete by far.

>>171884976
there is a graphical option that makes it so your units are always yellow and enemy units are always red, i don't know what its called but it can be disabled

>>171887175
>They're missing 3-4 LLs

Wait, what? What faction in the game has 6-7 LLs in their roster? I agree Chaos is a fairly incomplete roster unit wise, but LL-wise they are up to par with the average faction. Wood Elves could do with another LL though.

>>171887127
too misogynistic

So is it just lustria or lustria and naggaroth + ulthuan?

I swear if they blueball us by separating the new world I will be kind of pissed, even if lizards are awesome

>>171880728
It was in Rome 2.

You could enslave captives, which would give you a tiny boost to income. I don't remember if that applied to all provinces, your nearest province, or if it was just spread globally.
Then, when you had more than x% slaves in a province, you would get unhappiness and a slave revolt.

You could build shit to make slaves more productive, but I mostly remember that it felt like a shitty mechanic.

On the other hand, when I played Rome 2 it was a buggy mess that felt like shit compared to Shogun 2, so I may be biased a bit here.

>>171887467
Eh, they don't need the full fur bikini setup. Might actually be better and sexier if they have leather armor made of skinned rats and humans. Bonus points for when they get covered in blood for that wild savage look and for pandering to my fetish.

>black hunger
Your army suffers attrition unless you have clanrat/slave units, and if you do, those are the only units that suffer from that attrition.
All units should have a "hunger" value that affects the rate of attrition i.e. rat ogres/hellpit abominations require you to take a decent number of slave/clanrat units or else you run out quickly, but warplightning cannons and other skyre creations contribute little to that.

A second skaven mechanic, and one that could possibly go hand in hand with the first one is:
>warp stone
It'd be a resource similar to amber I imagine, and would be required to build skyre weaponry. It could also possibly be "broken up" and used as currency to boost economy if you're not using skyre weapons/have poor income.

Rat ogres are well known for being particularly ferocious because both the Skaven's black hunger and the Ogre's great Maw is combined in them, making them basically insane/rabid with hunger.

Depends on what you're shooting at. They can shoot over to hit large, they cant for shooting infantry unless its a distance. There is nothing wrong with doing a formation where its; infantry cannon infantry as long as the cannon is back from the front line it wont get attacked as blobs gets stuck on infantry.

>>171897219
I remember them from the Nagash book, never thought about it. If they are going to implement naval combat in this expansion, they might even be playable.

>>171897219
Yarr me skelly?

>Start Greenskin campaign
>Can't get out of Black Crag because I got BTFO by a full stack and a half of Red Fangs on turn 4

If only you had better schemes.

God that puts my Lizardmen to shame.

watch Jurassic park

Wait has there been any news, I've been away for the past 3 weeks. I know that in the OP link there's a timer, but other than that is it just speculation?

>>171896968
God I wish fantasy was still around, I would totally start a Lizardmen army.

dark elves*. sorry

>>171897801
Why is it that when Lustria is talked about, people jump to Elves. It's very obvious that Elves are coming in another expansion

>>171897801
>Jungle with temple in the background

Okay i'm convinced.

we can literally go into space

>I really hope Lizardmen don't have voiced dialogue.

>>171897959
Helves are literally inbetween the old world and lustria,

though they could just cover ulthuan in mist and add helves later.

>>171896643
all of a sudden 4chan likes mexican culture

how ironic

>Smartest
The Slann are the only smart ones when they can be bothered

Mexicans aren't aztecs.

>>171897959
There has to be a human-ish race in this expansion. It cannot be all skaven and lizardmen. Dark Elves are the most likely.

>>171898175
>Mexicans aren't aztecs.
>literally mexico comes from the aztecs
HAHAHAHAAHAHAH

>>171898245
and white americans are a bunch of chief runs-with-doe right?

mexicans are literally not aztecs. they are mexicans. mexican culture is tacos and tecate, not pyramids and sacrifices

>>171898195
There will at least be a minor human faction, in some Estalian states.

>>171898417
what are the mexica?
where was the aztec capital located ?
where is mexico city,Mexicos capital?
wow you're retarded

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aztec

go read you ignorant retard

>>171898245
Most mexicans are descendents of colonists. Indigeneous people are very rare, most of them were exterminated or enslaved.

>>171898245
>>171898407

Not that guy but there's a world of difference between proper aztecs and modern mexicans, even if the latter are direct descendants of the former and can technically be called aztecs as well.

>>171898626
>hurr the city name is the same though!
I bet you believe Ukraine and Kievan Rus are a cultural continuity as well you fucking idiot

>semantics
holy shit you're stupid. There is a town called Alessandria both in Italy and North Africa, are they the same thing?

Aztecs and all the other South America original inhabitants went almost extint because of the Conquistadores. Regarding language, culture and inheritage modern Mexicans are Spanish, they literally just kept the names

>>171898626
>>171898664
>>171898407

Of course Mexicans have Aztec blood but it certainly wouldn't be the same as the pure aztecs before the spaniards arrived; keep in mind the huge amount of aztecs that dropped dead from war, disease, starvation etc; they are heavily mixed with Spanish genes

I>>171898974

Slann have an obesity problem I guess that's pretty Mexican?

>Be Slann
>Finish delicious armlong burrito carried in by two skink attendants
>Time for a siesta, pull my Slannbrero down to shade me from the Lustrian sun

you know what the mayans are right idiot?

>>171898879
i live in mexico HAHAHA
>>171899096
you're wrong no one got extint they breeded/ made them into catholics
>>171899265
the point is its mexican culture not aztec themselves

My settlements are all upgraded to the point where I don't need population anymore. Should I deconstruct the population+ buildings and make guard houses, or is the casualty replenishment rate a big enough deal to keep them?
