So what's the next fantasy setting they will release after warhammer? It's pretty much confirmed fantasy shit is here to stay since it keeps the company afloat. LotR? GoT maybe, to have a mix of history appearance and fantasy to appease the history fags?

I don't think they're going to do more fantasy after Warhammer - probably the only reason they did Warhammer was because GW was practically giving the licensing rights away after AoS.

Everyone's scared, but it's more than likely just a fling. There's still plenty of history to cover.

Isn't this Slann supose to be riding a Stegadon?
>>
>>172667346
That's Mazdamundi, the oldest of the Slann and he's meditated to the point of reaching an epiphany.
That epiphany being the Lizardmen have failed to accomplish the first of the Old Ones’ decrees — the extermination of those races not part of the Great Plan. Mazdamundi believes it is pointless to divine the next stages of the Great Plan until the first is complete; to do so would only invite further error.

So is the reason GW wont let them do naval combat really because they gave the Man-o-war IP to someone else?

Slaan spend time awake, it's just not common. Slaan have power ratings based on what generation of spawning they are, with older Slaan generally spending the majority of their time asleep while the younger generations actually control the empire.

It's the 1st and 2nd generation Slaan that were truely godlike, but they're mostly all dead, the youngsters of the 5th generation that actually show up on battlefields most regularly are just upstart kids by comparison.

That's... really accurate, actually. I can't dispute it, huh.

Usually Slaan ride around on big floating chairs - the ground around the whole world is faintly Chaos-tainted, which is dangerous to them, so they have to avoid touching it at all costs.

Not to mention, they're big sleepy fucks. Most of the time they're just meditating and don't do much beyond trying to interpret the will of the Old Ones by looking at their old blueprints. Even the youngest of them are as old as some dragons - a Stegadon would probably be too bumpy for them and risk throwing them off.

It's clearly early access and plays like it, but they definitely got the setting down with the sea monsters, ship design, and weapons which I think is the most important. Naval Combat is fairly fun with wizards and stuff like cannons, claws, or flamethrowers, but boarding combat is fucking weird and janky.

Slaanesh is about desire and decadence - it's a Keeper of Secrets because it knows all your dirty dirty fetishes and your secret desires and vices.

Change and metamorphosis is Tzeentch's domain, you dumbass. That's literally his whole repertoire - his main emotion is hope, and what brings hope? The thought of change - revolution, a better tomorrow than today, the idea that you can gain great power and forge your own destiny, even if it's as Tzeentch's manipulated puppet.

I would argue that Tzeentch is probably the least evil chaos god. he has so many fucking plans that they overlap and cancel each other out, as well as the fact that chaos winning would cause the world to end and become lifeless and stagnant, so Tzeentch fucks with the other chaos god's or race's plans to prevent any 1 faction from winning and imposing strict order/chaos.

Stop repeating this meme.

They made the models for naval units and had naval cards made.

The way gw is whoring out their licenses i don't even think man O' war or dreadfleet being separate IPs would matter. especially with warhammer.

But Man o War doesn't have models for every race, since its ancient and most races only had 3 ships and maybe a flying unit anyways. So instead of making naval combat they'll just side line it as autoresolve.

That said. with warhammers longevity, the 10 year plan and its success. maybe as a final DLC after the 3rd game they'd add it in. if we're lucky.

Tzeentch plan's aren't really to produce any one outcome, they're just to stimulate developments. There's no other agenda behind that. Just like how one would think KHorne would realize that not killing everything at once would lead to less bloodletting over time: no, he's the god of bloodletting, and he wants more bloodletting, there's not much rationale beyond that. Tzeentch is the god of change, he wants more change, the more and sooner the better.

It has lots of lore, and every release expands it more.

You've got the age of myth and the age of sigmar, the age of chaos and the realms and Hammerhal, Oakhaven or Elixia, you could be a warrior reforged for vengeance, reclaiming the realms quest by quest, or an elven mage in the crystal spires of Hysh battling the minions of tzeentch in colourful magical tests.

Think for a second the adventures you could create, with every realm as a playground, every vista a wartorn mess. Be a human from Ghur who hunts beasts the size of towns, or a Dwarf from the skyholds loyal to his crowns.

There's so much opportunity in an aos rpg, I think we have a good idea, so please leave us be.

HISTORY FAGS BLOWN THE FUCK OUT

t. fan of total war since medieval 1 who has played all previous historical titles except for Alexander and the original shogun

The butt hurt is hilarious. I mean what the fuck was everyone expecting. the moment it was a jungle with aztec like ruins made it clear to me that it was going to be warhammer since i doubt CA would put so much effort into a meso america game without a focus on age of discovery.

And as other anons said. its too early in their historical titles development cycle for previews and announcements. when they first teased the new historical title last year it was still in the research and planning phase.

But then I could just make my own setting and do all that myself.

Sometimes you want to world build and make your own realm and sometimes you want to build up off of something like using the old world as a setting or maybe doing a game set in middle earth but you are not part of the main action.

Now the old world aint gone but now it is left in the dust.

I feel like they could have done a much better job of making the "your guys" setting is all.

40k does not have that problem since the galaxy is so vast and there is plenty of real estate.

Yeah, the Old Ones created the Slann, so they don't know how to create more of themselves. All the other Lizardmen castes/races can be spawned at the birthing pools though, so if the Slann take care the Lizardmen will go on forever.

And then the End Times happened

Both of them are affected by the curse of Khaine so they are not well rounded and OP on all fronts like HElf lords should be.

I guess you could say the same with the Warhammer Fantasy RPG, as much as I love it, the setting could be easily done in DnD.

The benefits of the realms I think is it's unknowable size, you could pick a nice corner and let your brain exercise.

I get where you're coming from, aos lacks the personality of each player's men, though I hope in a few years it's that times by 10. With so many stormhosts and so many fronts, I feel like their ample opportunity to to create your own band of cunts.

Seems like it's like 40k in that regard, though with slightly less spaceships but an equal amount of stars.

Fuck, all those little bits of polish that aren't worked in really bother me. I especially hate how units just walk alongside siege weapons, and how there isn't even an attempt to reload firearms.

It's a great game all in all, but man, they should've known going in that banners and officers would be an important thing to add since they were so prominent in the wargame. Why do I have to go back to Empire and Medieval 2 to get the level of polish I should expect from Warhammer?
>>
>>172672849
They never made naval combat, it was always auto resolve, the models were just for the campaign map screen, like in older pre empire total wars.

I'd like to believe that CA decided that if they couldn't do naval battles true justice, then they'd rather not do them at all. Especially when you consider flying units and magic and sea monsters and submarines.

I'm really hoping that CA does do it justice eventually. but for now i'm glad that they chose to put their resources into making the land battles better instead of just tacking on a token naval portion.

Like i said, i'm hopeful for a future expansion, but i won't hold my breath.

I'd rather there be a Battlefleet Gothic armada version of the more strategic game, or the Man of war will satisfy on a more personal level.
>>
>>172673635

With the new game about the super duper magic vortex and the fate of the world in the balance and the races of that game fighting over it, does it not feel like the Old World and the first game is trivialized by the second?

It's like everyone in the old world is fucking around with each other, playing tiddlywinks, meanwhile these new dudes are fighting for the fate of the world and playing 5D hyperchess.

from the look of the map it looks like there's enough ocean to make an ocean journey take a few turns but not be so long as to prevent attacks to or from the old world. I mean alberic has naval bonuses and naval attrition bonuses too.

Also to me it looks like you can probably plan a trip so as to avoid attrition by swinging around ulthuan.

I will give you that they're probably 3-5 bucks more expensive than they oughta be.

The DLC was about 25% too expensive.

So I just bought Warhammer recently. There was a small Beastman horde in Imperial territory so I sent a equal sized army to defeat it.

My guys despite mostly being spears that claim to be good against large got routed by one group of minotaurs.

Back the spears up with missile units

If you're fighting a large unit like Minotaurs with a normal sized infantry unit then your ranged units will be able to shoot the large unit without hitting your own guys

A unit of Free Company (If you have Grim/Grave) or Crossbows (if you don't) would make short work of a minotaur unit while yyour spears held them in place

>Do rifles and crossbows shoot over allied infantry if I place them behind?

Crossbows can fire in arcs, guns cannot.

Though even with crossbows you won't be able to hit a unit that your troops are actually fighting, unless it's something big like trolls or minotaurs.

Guns absolutely fucking decimate anything except for shielded units.

Place guns on the flanks and Crossbows behind your infantry, flank the guns around the enemy after the engagement starts (Presuming that the enemy doesn't have cavalry that will immediately flatten them) and once the enemy has no more stuff that you can easily hit with the crossbows start flanking them around too or use them to pick off routing units

Canto the Unsworn. He was a friend of Magnus the Pious, and fell to Chaos corruption. But when push to came shove, he couldn't bring himself to kill Magnus, which spelled the death of Asavar Kul, the Everchosen of the time, and the failure of that Chaos invasion.

But he was still damned and corrupt, so he ran North to the Wastes. He spent several hundred years just surviving, trying desperately to not draw the attention of the gods too much.

He's one of the most human Chaos warriors, in that his dream, his big dream, is to retire to a nice villa somewhere, like Tilea and he really doesn't want the world to end.

He saves Archaon's life during a battle and get's made his personal aide. At the same time, he can never gather the nerve to strike down Archaon, right up until the moment he realizes just how fucked reality is about to become and attacks him. It's heavily implied Archaon actually wanted him to strike him down when he wasn't looking, as he saw something of himself in the man. But Canto took him while he was paying attention, and so basically commited suicide via Archaon.

You can't really blame them desu.

It was only mid-way through the first game that they started doing narrative shit and quickly realised everyone really liked it.

Ever since King & the Warlord every DLC or FLC has added cool narrative shit and everyone loves it, so it's no surprise they decided to make one of the main features of the next game.

Lore of Vampires is fucking stupid. IoN, Raise Dead and Wind of Death are literally everything you need in a lore.

Im not sure who the strongest of all time is but I say Grim-chan is up there. He managed to successfully siege the second largest Skaven city which was known for creating all the monstrous Skaven units and he pretty much just soloed the place

He stood in one corner and went all "Last Stand Mode" on the city and later left bored because he didnt like the stench from all the rat corpses

Gotrek is equally if not a better warrior that Grimgor but his feats are too long to list here

Yeah, that's why he's so cool. He's basically a decent person, who couldn't resist the lure of power and wealth of Chaos, then realized just how fucked things were a bit too late to back out. His motives are human and understandable.

He first appeared in Gotrek and Felix, and his bits are the best in that book.

He's also friends with a Chaos Dwarf. Well, not actually friends, since Chaos Dwarves don't have friends, but they get along well and the Chaos Dwarf is willing to strike fair bargains with him.

Archaon is the most powerful. Followed by Grimgore and Franz.

Archaeon literally beat the shit out of everyone, and in the End Times was able to spit in the face of Chaos Gods and get away with it.

Grimgore gets an honorable mention because he literally broke through the entire Chaos army by himself and punched Archaeon in the nuts. Im not joking, this is actual lore because GWS had a 'players pick the winner' for a Chaos incursion a while back and they picked Orcs, so they had to make Grimgore do something to win when GWS was counting on Chaos to win.

But Archaeon did obliterate everyone else in mortal combat so he wins by far.

Storm of Chaos got retconned, so that didn't happen.

Grimgor did pretty well against Archaon in the End Times, even breaking the Eye of Sheiran, but he eventually got gibbed when Archaon let the Slayer of Kings loose.

It's kind of annoying, because Grimgor's WAAAAGH was possibly the strongest single army n the planet right then, and if he'd marched them into Archaon's horde at the start of the End Times, things might have turned out very different.

With a thought the tectonic plates shifted beneath Athel Loren. A new mountain shot up under the tree of ages. Several hundred thousand elves died in the geomantic shock wave.
Several months later as you watch the constellation of Xlattl rise again in the third quadrant you come back to your thoughts and consider ruminating again.

So I got a new computer and can play the newer Total War.

Anyone else not like how generals and cities are managed in the newer titles.

I don't see why only one city can create only 4 buildings or how generals only have a handful of traits rather than a whole list that made them unique.

Tfw when around turn 75 in a comfy vampire game. You're stomping on the undead and realise that the Welfs have got Pfeildorff.
Well fuck it. It's not worth it. Three turns later the undead grab it and you grab it back off them.
Turn 80 you accidentally mouse over athel loren.
>The Welfs declare war!
Whatever they got neutered.

>they are joined by their allies. The Helfs have declared war!

While you've been slowly working your way from Marienburg to sylvannia fucking Teclis now owns one half of the world from the north to the south pole because lol elves.

Six stacks of hilariously broken helfs appear outside of Altdorf next turn.
You're about to get a flying Eagle drawn chariot up the arse sideways.

Ogres aren't actually Chaos related though.

Ogres are just Ogres, in the Dark Lands they're probably the closest thing to a good guy faction. But they're really just neutral and focused on eating everything.

(They were created as an anti-chaos weapon by the Old ones but it went wrong, iirc)

It's not like they have many more options.
If they will keep the same schedule we will have 10 new factions with WH 2 and 3 (4 base factions and a preorder one) and 6 more with the DLCs, 10 if we consider stuff like K&W and G&G. So a grand total of 20 new factions/subfaction.

Of course I really don't think that we will get that many DLCs, so realistically at least 13 new factions are quite likely

and you said histfags were autistic

Do you think a sufficiently fat orc could replace a Slann without the lizards noticing?
>>
>>172687434
Korq is not in the trailer but he's certainly in the game.
>>
>>172687203
Man, I want Lokhir so bad. He would make DEs worth for me.
>>
>>172687276
In the trailer you dumb bastard.

To be fair, slann vary wildly in depictions, while I have always preferred the clean ayy toad look of the miniature, it drew clear inspiration from jabba the hutt in its first redesign into the flying fat fucks, which CA was able to render nicely

I blame the stubby hands

in all other depictions the hands were elongated and with thin, very articulated fingers
>>
>>172687276
>>172687434
Miscommunication is all. First anon meant the Slann was the only notable Lizardman in the trailer, but wa ssomewhat unclearl, so second anon thought he meant the only notable Lizardman in the lore.
>>172687475
A navel is the scar of where an umbiblican cord was attached, which connects a baby to its mother during gestationand allows the transfer of nutrients and other vital substances during gestation. Not only do frogs not gestate like that, Slann were created entirely through magic, and don't have navels in lore.

>>172687707
True, but that doesn't have a navel either

Thanks, I like my slann how I like my old ones' designs: flawless

I might be late to this but does the trailer mean we get battle royale back? 1v1v1v1?
>>
>>172686685

>one of the four

Archaon also literally spat in his face when the Horned Rat tried to offer him his blessing, which tells you exactly how high the living incarnation of Chaos Undivided thinks of that plot point.

Lokhir will be in the last DLC for Warhammer 2. Featuring three new Factions, Dark Elf Corsairs, Averland and Fishmen. Also adding Marius Leitdorf as LL.

the DLC will be called the Cracken and the Count. And it features a series of unlikely Quest battles where Lokhir and Marius have to seal the Undersea Gates and prevent the Fishmen from conquering the Surface.

Fuck off. It wouldn't even be the same franchise at that point.
Total war is about formation based combat, any era where people did not fight in blocks is not going in the game.
Besides, steel division normandy is already coming out with mass ww2 combat and wehraboo bullshit.
>>
>>172687832
yes i am aware of how pepes reproduce
that doesnt mean youre not autistic
>>
I wonder when an Old Friend will come to visit.
>>
>>172683307
You've got some catching up to do then. Everything in the game now will be on your campaign map, you just won't be able to play as the dlc races.
>>
>>172688117
Why does it have boobs if they don't reproduce and is also not a mammal
>>
>>172688470
those are bubbles, not nipples
the boobs form out to store mana, that's basic knowledge

got it

there's a book on Skarsnik. The reason why he is gobbo he is today was because he was drunk and got mufuasa'd

Just play what you have to far. Game's not going anwhere. Hang in there anon
>>
>>172688275
That's a great opinion you have of what TW is about
>>
>>172688783
It's kinda realistic. Tokugawa got their asses handed to them quite regularly, hence why they were toadies to Oda and then Hideyoshi and only after he died they got their chance.
Date is cooler

>All calculations happen in the background regions.
what does this mean?
>>
>>172688767
yes
>>
>>172688995
but he's right
a WW2 total war would play completely different
>>
>>172689163
I feel like any further discussion on this subject will just mean wasting our time, I will just say that you guys not being able to imagine how the game could accomodate that doesn't mean it's not possible.

Time will tell I guess, and it's not like they have to do it anyway.
>>
>>172689062
But unsuitable as ruler up until Ieyasu's death, and at that point not hungry for it anymore.
>>
>>172689430
I can imagine it perfectly, it would be steel division with economy management.

>>172689549
I liked that he was a huge westaboo.

Are fantasy fags autistic?

What of Nobunaga?
>>
>>172689925
Stop beating the dead horse, the so-called controversy is already dead and buried.
>>
>>172683271
Good, regional restrictions was dumb. If you want to stick to the lore, you can just restrict yourself. Being unable to conquer somewhere just because it belonged to a certain faction is just irritating.

You're late for that particular party m8, we're all friends again now.

>tfw you see people asking CA to add Cathay and Nippon

These people are even less relevant than Chaos Dwarf fans
>>
>>172690243
They would essentially just be making their own fantasy setting if they went into those factions.
>>
>>172690243
Could be possible given what CA did with Brettonia but definitely not likely.
>>
>>172690482
Not at all possible and also a stupid idea

Help we're autosaging!

>>172690571
What shitty corner defense, you need to make several units occupy the same ground so that they share the damage, meaning fewer enemies can hit them and the damage is distributed more evenly.
>>
>>172683838
that's the point though.

Empire are mostly just humans with some extra fantasy shit.

Their infantry are literally just soldiers + crazed fanatics.
>>
>>172690571
>all those great weapons vs welves

focus fire the front line and make a couple units rout off of the battlefield, than remove naked dwarfs w/ your remaining ammo before going into melee and fucking his shit up
>>
>>172690083

Well the idea that razing the land gets you bonuses for certain factions is cool. Should have worked the same, so you perhaps couldn't make a whole amazing city in the mountains but you could set up a trading post on the hold etc or something.
>>
>>172690883
>>172683838
Yeah something like

>Dismounted Knights of the Blazing Sun ( Dual Lances )
with Terror/Armored/Armor-piercing/WhirlingLances would be fantastic addition to the Empire unit roster.
>>
>>172684394
I want a confirmation quote on this, I hope this isn't speculation
>>
Did i missed new bread or one baked it yet?
>>
>>172691124
>>172683838

Out of interest, who are the absolute most badass normal human regiment in the Empire?
>>
>>172690482
Brettonia already had an (outdated) army and some lore, the entirety of material on Cathay and Nippon is less substantial than a fart in the wind.

New:

>>172686616
Are Slann even born? I don't know how they're created.
>>
>>172691367

Either the Carroburg Greatswords or Reiksguard.

While Demigryph Knights are superior 1 to 1, this is mostly due to riding a monster larger than most bears. There are also very few chapters of Knights that can field more than a dozen or two. A single unit of Demis is probably the entire Inner Circle of a Knight Chapter.
