Was it common for people to go into combat in full plate armour with no form of heraldry or other signals?

How would you recognize friend from foe?

Playing as Tilea with the southern realms mod, didn't expect it to be so brutal. The start itself is fine since Tilea is united with no real immediate threats expect maybe the greenskins to the west, but now I'm on turn 60 with the Estelia and Western Border Princes provinces and the greenskins occupy power rankings # 2-7. I've had to fend off waves of greenskin stacks since they won the badlandsb owl and Beggar Nohammer got destroyed on turn 20 even with my help.

>lizardmen
reee i want a historic total war. why they release after only 2 year a second warhammer part?
that makes no sense.

>>172578070
What I'd give to see Snagla and Grom.

>>172577748
I mean they are broken on any difficulty.

My first legendary play through was with them, a line of Ironbreakers is pretty impossible to break. Stack a shit ton of Quarellers behind them buffed with an engineer and shit, they fire over your line and destroy the enemy, even shielded/armored enemies, and are pretty immune to people shooting back with their shields. Throw some Hammerers on the flanks to protect yourself from flanks/flank the enemy. Finish it up with an artillery piece or two to take out enemy artillery.

Nothing could stop it.

Literally the only threats were Hellcannons, which out range my artillery, forcing me to move... And getting cornered and being forced to fight two full stacks with only a single stack... And even then I sometimes won those.

There are no Estalian characters of note outside of a few merchants. Certainly no one suitable to lead.

Beastmen are a bit of a nuisance -- they tend to show up at inconvenient locations. However, they're quite fun to battle.
Wood Elves factions used to be the bane of the civilized world, venturing forth from Athel Loren with high tier armies and seeding everyone. Nowadays they're fairly insular

BY SIGMAR NO

>>172580901
I don't mind them being insular most of the time - it fits well with their lore - but they should still have something like a Wild Hunt.

Since there's no winter/summer system, maybe every thirty or so turns they declare war on a random faction and then Orion strikes out. It can be weighed with a number of factors to make it a guided randomness - which factions are closest physically, which have in the past declared war or trespassed in Athel Loren, which have aided or ignored Athel Loren's enemies.

>>172580973
This does NOT have my consent

That would be a cool feature. Admittedly if the player was on the receiving end it would seem a bit shit to get Wild Hunt'd, but I'm of the opinion that a bit of randomness never hurt. Wonder if it's possible, might take a look at the event system to see how it fits together.

Vampire Coast will be the pre-order bonus for Game 2. Watch.

Okay, I don't get it.

What's the difference between the Gleaming Penant, which gives the unit a passive augment that gives +4 leadership, and the Standard of Discipline, which... gives the unit +4 leadership?

Is the Gleaming Penant, like, a morale restoring effect that restores it over time? Or do they both do the exact same thing in stupidly different ways?

>>172581362
Eh, part of the point is to have shit happen, right? It's not like Bretonnia gets many Waaghs or beastman raids, and at least in my games Mousilion has just sat around.

Warhammer fantasy occurs on it's own little planet
Chaos happens to be fixated there because there's big ol chaos rifts at the north and south poles of the planet, and the setting in general isn't as over the top as 40k so chaos isn't this ridiculously powerful entity where the greater daemons of chaos are immune to most things less impactful than a tactical nuke

Fucking police wrote me down because i was asking too many questions in defense of my best bro. They didn't looked like police at all and looked more like thugs. There was five of them (and probably even one of them could beat the shit out of me and my friend) and showed badge only for a split second. They searched my bro without warning and made a photo of his ID card. I asked why the fuck they did that as i never seen or heard about making photo of someones id card and demanded from them to show badge again while disregarding their demands to back off. Fortunately they showed their badge again and then i backed off. They proceed to write down where i live (i'm not sure if i told them everything right as i always confuse my postal code) and then they fucked off. I wasn't even drunk so much. Those faggots with whom i was at the party had much weaker head and was talking without sense all the time and that police didn't do anything to them at all while i and my friend talked about games and what the fuck we are even doing at this party when we could be in our homes right now.

Tzeentch has so many different plots running constantly at cross purposes to each other that it's really not worth worrying about. Yeah, any action you take MAY be directly advancing ten Tzeentchian plots, but there's just as good a chance it's also advancing ten other Tzeentchian plots directly conflicting with the first ten.

A Vampire faction would require the Vampire Counts to play. In order to play VC you need to own the original game. It isn't going to be a preorder bonus because the preorder bonus needs to be something that idiots who only decide to buy the second game can play without owning the first game.

Keep in mind the second game will also get bombarded with negative reviews anyway since the Skaven main faction will start in the Old World, and third worlders will whine about CA cutting them off from content. The only way I can see them not whining is if both maps exist regardless of whether you own the second game or not and hence owners of the second game can play a campaign in the Old World but only as the Skaven.

And if that's the case then CA should consider making Beastmen and Wood Elves and Chaos Warriors compatible with the second game since there are undoubtedly whiny idiots who will complain that they don't like any old world races except the Elves or whatever and complain that they can't buy the Wood Elf DLC because they don't own the Old World campaign.

Do Norsemen worship any non-chaos deities? Also, I read somewhere that they worship Khorne and Tzeentch as these animal deities which grant blessings based on honor in battle or cunning- so do they know they are actually worshiping literal giant demons or what?

>>172588827
The more I think about it, the more sense it makes to me. I mean, you're supposed to attack the enemy where he's weak, right? Now ask yourself this question: where were the Romans the weakest? Where their army was, or where their cooking pots were? If you look at it that way, it suddenly makes a lot of sense. Hindsights is 20/20, and I don't think it it was at all that easy to tell before hand. Even looking back with all the facts, I think it could have gone either way.

>>172589568
They worship lots of gods. Their most important/prominent ones are the Big 4 Chaos Gods, but they also worship some of the various Old World gods in the guise of animals, like the Chaos Gods. I think that Ursun and Ulric are worshiped in the form of a bear and a wolf, respectively, but unlike the Chaos gods they don't give you cool mutations or massive suits of spiky armor so they're not as popular.

Do they know that Khorne is a giant demon sitting on a skull throne or do they just see him as a giant wolf or as an "all father" like Odin?

>>172589568
The different tribes have all sorts of different objects of worship. Some venerate nature spirits like rivers and mountains, some have complex pantheons that encompass different aspects of Chaos, and some claim a great ancestor who managed to make daemonhood as a personal patron.

Each Chaos god has a thousand names among the Northmen, and usually their understanding of the Four only gets solid once you're a Warrior with patronage and blessings.

>>172590195
Sort of both. They know he lives in the north on a giant throne of skulls, but they typically depict him as an animal rather than a demon. Typically they just worship the Chaos gods because that's what their tribe worships and don't really put too much thought into it.

>>172590195
Generally none of the Norse tribes have any idea of the true nature of the Chaos gods - they sometimes even split up the gods into multiple aspects for various things. Even if it's just the four, they usually don't fully understand them, or their relationship to them - they think they're the most blessed people with the closest contact with the gods, who might be their ancestors. They only really begin to understand it if they become Warriors of Chaos.

I imagine they'd see Khorne as an Odin-like figure, but a wolf wouldn't be that strange. Apparently at one point the Kurgan tribes worshiped a mammoth as their main deity, and only turned to Chaos once he was killed.

They're pseudo-Italians and Spaniards, so if they have any unique appearance it will be in the shape of NotConquistadores if they're in Lustria.
If Dogs of War get added, there are some Tilea and Estalia regiments that include pikemen, I believe. But, they were never fleshed out anywhere near to the extent of the other human factions.

Tilea has named characters and had their own army list at one point

Given that one of Tilea's cities is part of Estalia in game I don't think CA gives a shit about them.

I never said there wouldn't be a Clan Pestilens faction, only that poorfags would be buttmad that of the two LLs the Skaven race start with one would be inaccessible if CA doesn't have the Old World map always connected to the New World map regardless of which game you own.

I could understand someone saying that about Africa. I'd think they were wrong, but I could understand that. But everyone knows that China has some real awesome shit.

On my Grimgor campaign I got a Waaagh by turn 12 which took the whole of Barak Var whilst I fought off dwarf stacks.

Wouldn't ever happen.

Releases work by building hype and this example is a prime example of that.

They've got months worth of shit left to build hype with if there's as much content as people are anticipating.

So Nante was the city we got in the peace deal with Brittany, but it revolted out of our hands, so we're going back in even if it means war. Gives us a chance to deal with the rabble, at least.

That's the Fay Enchantress.

Though I can't hate you too bad for not realizing - she does not have the HEUG HEADRESS of her art and model. And for some reason she's not the secret elf that she was in the actual lore? She honestly does look a lot more like the design for the Lady of the Lake than she does for the Fay Enchantress - and I get that she'd look similar to a Prophetess. but there's still a problem here.

>>172598826
Took em nearly 6 months to do Wood Elves
If we are to understand that Warhammer 2 has been developed parallel to Warhammer 1 DLC
6 months x 4 = 15
So expect release in Augtober

Long method: Go south, not north. Absorb green skin forces and build up your strength, then come back with Black Orcs, Giants, and giant spiders.

Short method: Take just enough to field 2 armies, fight until you get 2 Waaaghs, bury Dwarfs in orc corpses until they suffocate and you win.

Also make sure you take the red skill line immediately. Basic Boyz are trash and you need every buff they can get so you can survive to the mid game.
