I hope so too, but if high elves get phalanxes and both high elves and dark elves get strong new magic while wood elves still can't even shoot through trees, there'll be a huge powergap for elves, which would be a shame

Hopefully if they rework magic to be more powerful the changes reach the previous factions too

Crooked Moon Mutinous Gits constantly sends few stacks at you through half of the map when you are playing as Skarsnik or Belegar. I wouldn't worry about factions attacking Ulthuan unless there is some sort of attrition which completely fucks over AI like in Athel Loren.

If I'm good at a Total War game, what should I be doing? How fast should I be conquering things? Should I even care?

I feel like I must suck because I rarely ever conquer a large part of the campaign map in any game, or even win the victory conditions, and it seems like everyone else will conquer huge empires or even take the whole map within the time limit.

>>172925978
It all depends on what you want to do. I rarely consider the victory conditions in my games. I just enjoy roleplaying the faction (fantasy or historical) I'm playing as and doing things as I believe they would as diplomatic situations develop throughout the campaign. If you want to conquer more of the map then you just have to be more aggressive. Always at war or preparing to attack someone as soon as you have the army for it. You shouldn't have more than a few turns of peace in between wars.

Skill in TW has more to do with the battle map than the world map. Not to say it doesn't take skill to paint the map with your faction color, but most folks consider battle tactics and micro a better measurement of skill inTW.

What's the dynamic of your wars? Usually you beat the enemy stacks in the field or one bug seige battle, then steamroll his cities in quick succession before he can rebuild his armies. If you're giving him time to rebuild his armies then you'll prolong your game.

It's not necessarily a bad thing, it's probably more fun to keep an enemy alive and have large-scale regular field battles than to powergame and turboannex all his settlements in seige battles against mediocre garrisons.

Slaanesh is the absolute rule of pleasue in every form, you will probably fuck and be fucked by every single thing in his/her/its domain and even things outside of it, we're talking about taking dragon ogre dicks even if it won't fit, enjoying the entire course of action of your entire ass being riped wide open and probably in half.

Your correct slaanesh does, pleasure in all forms, but usually to the extreme to the point where it may not even make sense, see noise marines for example in 40k. They have weapons that are intolerable volumes and tones that for some reason they enjoy. The entire concept is pretty fucked up. Things like drugs too are also covered by him.It's all about the kill with the gods, just as it is decay for nurgle it's pleasure for slaanesh, putting a blade into your victim and healing them at the same time just so they can enjoy the pain. Sure you'll live longer than against someone like khorne but you will "enjoy" it. Or at least the guy bringing the pain will...

If memory serves slaanesh has this 5 room castle sort of thing in the warp, one room is things like wine and food, another sex, another art and so on so forth.

Fuck the other humans.

Estalia, my """""""""ally"""""""""" who I had to save from Khazrack Bullballs has been declaring war randomly on everyone from Tilea, the Empire (who they helped cripple so they could get goblin/vampire tagteamed). Tilia has been fighting the Welfs. The Border Princes are the ones who declared war on the fucking Dwarfs, let them burn. Kislev genocided most of the Empire in the early game before getting pumped full of Norscan jizz.

Oh yeah, and Ostermark allied up with fucking Mannfred ASAP and was rewarded for their loyalty by being second on the plate for Archaon.

I think all but 2 provinces had the "fuck the empire" trait, and it showed. Hell, I wouldn't even mind helping out the last remaining Empire province, Hochland, if they weren't ALSO at war with the FUCKING DWARFS.

I suppose if chaos can produce benevolent gods, as otherwise our slann friends will take umbrage to your suggestion that a god in their likeness is a servant of chaos.

Last Total War game I played for more than 100 hours was Shogun 2. I hate how in modern Total War games you can't fully develop every single province but instead have to pick and choose because of food maintenance and all that bullshit. I also hate how you only have a limited amount of armies and you can't just recruit a stack and send it out without a dedicated general figure leading them.

Did newest TW games (WH and Atilla) get rid of this bullshit or is it still a thing?

Mine were Gargoquaxokibiki the Intemperate, a Slann Lord who had his armies follow the path of the chaos moon hoping to undo the evil it left in its passing. Unfortunately, the moon is a fair bit faster than a nomadic horde of saurus and stegadons, so they're lagging a bit, and his military second Huakroataxa, he who hunts the dead, a saurus Scar Veteran who excels at running down and exterminating enemy mages, particularly vampires and necromancers. His Machuatl burst into flames with his rage, so he could even burn the corpses to cinders.

The army as a whole had three red bars as a unifying symbol, signifying the scar marks on Gargoquaxokibiki's belly after a daemon tried to eviscerate him, and he had to spend millenia at rest recovering. The members of his roving horde receive ritual scars from the skink priests, and paint the scars as a symbol on their shields as an eternal reminder of their hatred of chaos and their desire for revenge.

>>172938454
it's considered a mechanic because it determines how you have to set out riflemen.

If riflemen can only fire from the first 2 ranks with kneeling then they always need to be spread wide.

In TWW they can shoot through their own ranks so they can be used pretty much as xbows/ bows are used without much bother.

Most people would prefer if guns had the kneel mechanic of other games but were made stronger to compensate, this would also be closer to TT.

It just looks more realistic / immersive and makes guns better reflect the flimsy yet powerful way they work.

It's the same reason people are annoyed you can't make spear/ shield walls anymore.

Some people claim spearmen do it naturally now but they obviously don't because they don't walk around in a really tight immobile formation.

Ironbreaker shield walls should also be a thing. They should be among the best siege defence units in the game but without tight formation mechanics it's really easy to break through enemy lines.

Spear and shield walls have a much greater impact on gameplay than kneeling does. It makes very little difference whether you have you spread your riflemen out or not. Fuck kneeling and spreading out your riflemen, but gimme dose wall formations.

Yeah that's kind of the point though.

You have to bring them out of kneeling in order to move them which makes them slower to react to cav.

I would've thought they'd have to tech to just make it automatic when you try and move them by now though.

With kneeling guns become one of the most vulnerable units in the game but also one of the most powerful.

Well... in shogun 2 they were shit actually, and it really disappointing me. I played Ikko Ikki and got gun monks with 92/100 accuracy, which is the most accurate unit you can get in the game pretty much, and they didn't kill shit.

But I think most people would prefer it if guns had the kneel mechanic and were more powerful.

They should have a huge impact desu.

In TWW charging cav into spearmen isn't the best choice, but in other games it can be a death sentence.

It should still be a death sentence if they're all clumped up in a wall, but there are easy ways to counter it.

Ranged units, arty & magic would all completely demolish clumped up units in spearwalls.

This would also mean you have to go for decent balanced army comps, not like the retards who can get away with bringing a full-cav brettonian army because spears don't really have that much of an impact.

How is this true?

I started Angrund and I'm on turn 30 and have just taken Karak 8 Peaks and it's been pretty easy desu.

Ghost dads make diplomacy easy as shit early and they also make battles way easier than any of the other dwarf lords.

Other than ghost dads you only need like 2 warrior units and the rest rangers and you're set.

Also RoR's make the game so much easier.

Just for fun because I'm 90% sure CA won't do this: what would Lizardmen diplomacy look like if they stuck autistically close to their lore?

You can easily trade with other factions for obscene amounts of gold while giving them almost nothing in return. Can't declare war on anyone unless they sack one of your cities or they randomly take something they shouldn't have while raiding. Force into wars of annihilation if a skink finds a random tablet they are 27% sure says some faction shouldn't exist by this year. Permanent war with rats and Chaos (this is pretty cool actually). Missions that will auto fail the game if you don't complete them and are all about dealing with Chaos trying to end the world prematurely. If you reach -10000 relationship with someone you can summon Kroak to nuke them.

Anything else?

>>172940807 made me curious: what are some tactics other than the old hammer and anvil that you Anons have used?

Not counting bridge battles and battles where I've just had cav and had to cycle charge/skirmish, I can only think of two that I've used: oblique order, when I'm lacking cavalry, where I might place archers or peltasts behind my best melee unit, on one of the flanks, and had them focus on the enemy in front, hopefully breaking them and letting the elite unit flank the next enemy.

And another, that I don't know what to call. Maybe it is in fact a variant of hammer and anvil?

It didn't save the campaign or anything and I haven't used it since, but that was very satisfying. Adopted the captain from that battle.

But other than that, I honestly can't think of any. It's like >>172940807 said, H&A will solve most of the battles you're fighting.

So I'm at a bit of a hiccup with my chaos campaign.

I've already finished the short campaign, and now i'm trying to crack athel loren, but it seems fucking impossible.

They have 6 stacks in there and I can only afford 2 so it seems impossible.

I don't have any settlements left to sack so I'm running out of money.

I think I made a mistake in not sacking most of the cities, only maxed out ones that give like 25k. I just hated having to miss out extra turns doing fuck all.

With regards to dwarfs I'm pretty sure they're fucked because Greenskins are strength rank 3 and I'm pretty certain they aren't doing too well.

What do?

I'm pretty sure this shit shouldn't be so hard to fix.

I can forgive musicians beause they'd have to record audio for each race, but banners and captains are just an extra model option or two.


I think we can all agree on those, shit that's up for debate: Naval Battles, Siege mechanics, Magic (especially factoring in scaling), Quick Battle implementation being bare bones.

I hope that if Skaven do end up a thing in the Old World, they're mostly focusing on the southern realms - Estalia, Tilea, and the Border Princes.

Right now they seem to have barely any threats to deal with - if the dwarves win the badlands bowl, they'll probably be friends with them. If the orcs win, they don't seem to head west.

For a while, the Border Princes were the strongest, even stretching into the Empire. For whatever reason they crumbled, so now it's Estalia who's got land in Bretonnia.

I think the siege mechanics needed another look over at least. Moving troops around on the walls felt awkward - Medieval 2 is felt better about its sieges. And unless you happen to have Fire Arrow Peasant Archers, the siege equipment is difficult to destroy - not that it matters, since just about every infantry unit can use ladders, and some monsterous infantry can attack the gates on their own, so why even bother with towers and rams?

I think it's a good thing they're not including naval battles. It's not fair to expect them to be in every Total War game now.

Agree 100%, I dont think the single wall sieges are necessarily a bad thing but the awkward movement on walls is still pretty shitty and there really is zero need to build rams or towers.

Perhaps if they only gave ladders to low tier units it'd give them more use. Once ladders are established any unit could use them but the lightly armoured guys need to be the ones to make it to the wall and put it up. Adds extra depth

It's a mechanic that replaces battles that should be epic with cakewalks because you're too shit to control more than 1 stack at a time.

If I had levelled lightening strike I wouldn't be having any trouble with wood elves and would've just stomped the entire campaign and it'd make it boring as shit.

I would no longer have to play a single difficult battle if I didn't want to.

Lightening strike is the most baby mode shit and if you use it you should be ashamed.

I agree and I avoid taking it. But marching around with 2 stacks feels like kind of the same thing.

>>
>>172949595
They certainly haven't aged well compared to newer titles, but overall they feel solid to me. I know where to put my units, the cities themselves can be a bit fun and interesting, and the town square makes sense.

In Warhammer, it's awkard putting troops on walls, and because of that weird mechanic they have, you can't stack up troops at one section, or put some spearmen behind your archers. The towers feel less useful since the enemy moves to the wall fairly quickly and doesn't have to rely on their siege equipment (the towers just have units inside them, by the way, instead of having to have them run up once they get to the walls). And when your units break, they just run off the map instead of having a fun last stand at the town square.

>>172949751
Only problem with that is that a lot of enemies I fight use low-tier units anyway. Skeletons, empire swordsmen or spearmen, marauders, etc. If you could fiddle with the mechanics and such...maybe have the ladders of like Medieval 2, only you can just have them automatically for any unit you can give them to - but in doing so, they can't use shields and have to risk a lot of arrow fire. You probably won't kill them anyway, but it forces them to move a little slower and makes ladders more of a risk.

What's funny is that in Shogun 2, you could unlock the ability to do night battles once your general got to rank 3, and if you played Hattori, you could do them right from the start. At least in Warhammer you have to invest into the blue skill line.

I want you to imagine a place where snow boils and flows like magma. A place where a billion madmen meet their deaths twice every other minute while demons wage war on eachother in the swirling vortex of blood and bile. The Earth shatters and reforms itself seemingly at random. Great mouths of ice break apart and swallow great creatures whose appearance is nothing short of unspeakable. The festering corpses of brash and hopeful northmen pepper the landscape while any southmen foolish enough to traverse the wastes is no doubt being kept alive impaled through the ass and out through the back of the neck then tortured for as long as the unnatural magicks can keep them breathing.

That's what the Chaos Wastes are like.

It was different in those games though because getting decent units generally took longer and there wasn't so much disparity between the top units and the worst units.

In my Kholek campaign I had dragon ogres by turn 26 which, if I had taken lightening strike, would've made the entire campaign an absolute cakewalk and boring as shit as my stacks of dogs & ogres rape shitty stacks of swordsmen & xbows.

In TWW the AI is always 100 times slower to tech up than the player so lightening strike becomes broken shit.

That's a fair point and it's something I've noticed. You can kinda fix it by getting that mod which increases the number of building slots in capitals. It doesn't guarantee anything, but it increases the chance that the AI will actually build the buildings required to field their advanced units.

I usually use custom maps for the sieges. The ones in med 2 never felt that smooth to me. Like unit control in those are a nightmare. I much prefer something like Attila or Rome 2. Though I know it's most certainly just me. Just a preference I suppose
>>
>>172951332
The issue is that the AI is just not that good at planning around limited building slots; they don't plan ahead to put buildings that have level 4/5 upgrades in provincial capitals nor focus on building the correct combinations of buildings to get really high-tier units. It's still a bit daft if it has more building slots, but more building slots greatly increases the odds of the AI building what it needs to build.

They're also not good at specializing provinces, so they won't dedicate a few provinces with regional specialties to recruitment while devoting the rest to income, and they only build walls erratically rather than obsessively.

I know right? It's a weird experience seeing a few surviving Chaos Warriors with Halberds running deeper into your city. Not that I usually see it, since usually I'm only getting sieged when I'm so badly outnumbered that I can't possibly win and the enemy rarely breaks.

This is something that I really notice when confederating as Bretonnia - not only does each city build a little erratically, but they aren't planning on having me take them over eventually, leading to each city having generally the same layouts because they want to have good units.

Sometimes it's not that bad, but other times it's frustrating - especially when all the buildings are really well built up, and I'm not good at planning regional specialties myself.

Brettonia is pretty rough because every province only has two regions and your economic buildings need a secondary building to max them out, but it's helped somewhat in that you don't really need to build walls. Bastonne is good for knights and infantry, Aquitaine is good for bows and spears, Lyonesse and Parvonne are good for horse units, and everything else should focus on the economy to maintain your knightstacks.

bretonnian factions that aren't bretonnia have a bland start because all you can do is farm rebellions. If you try and leave to kill Skullsplitters you'll piss off all your neighbours with tresspassing.

With Bordeleaux you can take Mousillon turn 2. But its a tricky battle, it's a good idea though because Greenskin Incursions make it difficult later on.

You know what would be really fucking cool?

If you could build a special unique building in certain level 5 settlements that gave you a bunch of epic weapons to outfit your lords with.

Like I've occasionally gotten that Sword of Terror that immobilises an entire army on a flying lord and that sword which has a breath weapon (pic related is Hemmler after getting it on him) - but it's so sporadic you can never bank on it in an entire campaign.

Would be awesome if you could get a building that added all the magical artefact weapons your faction has in their codex to your items list so you can buff your lords in cool ways & give them unique abilities without having to just pray you get a certain drop in a campaign.

>>172956505
I've personally used sarthorael a bunch of times and the ability to charge through everything is really quite good, because you can constantly spread terror, knockdown, and aoe attacks with charge bonus added in
He's also been buffed since that video was made, even his magic is a bit better
If you're going to micro anything it may as well be your general/spellcaster all in one package

I still don't understand people that think DLC and expansions are vastly different things. Expansions are just DLC packs you wait longer for. Also, it's a standalone game, you benefit from having Warhammer 1, but you don't need to.

Explain something to me:

the old world is barely a single continent

the new game covers almost 3 and yet it's said to have an equally large canpaign map and number of territories (albeit you can settle on a greater percentage)

how do these two statements hold together?
are the new continents just not included in their totality? is the new map differently scaled? does each territory cover a greater part of land?

Oh insect races and sentient insects definitely existed in the Warhammer world.

Until the Old Ones decided that they were to be exterminated to the last, pic related.

Where do you think the daemons of Chaos got some of their characteristics from? From the souls of the slaughtered races on Warhammer world who were bretty mad about what happened to them.

They aren't "vastly" new. They're pretty much the same as culture packs in Rome 2.

>Expansions are just DLC packs you wait longer for
Expansions you get a fuck ton of new playable races and a new campaign, a la Warhammer 2. DLC is shit that really should've been in the base game for an additional cost. There are some DLC that obviously weren't meant for the base game and that is like guac or bacon on your cheeseburger. However, the vast majority of DLC, including that of TWW and Rome 2, are the equivalent of ordering a cheeseburger and getting told that the patty and cheese slice costs extra, but the bun is included and that we should be happy that they even offer the patty and cheese in the first place.

It's a non-quantifiable question and thus received a non-quantifiable answer. Differentiation is differentiation. The degree is what matters and the degree in TWW, just as in every other TW game, is minimal. The difference is that TWW pigeonholes you to give you an illusion of a greater degree of differentiation, but ultimately the factions are the same as they ever were.

You are a Saurus

You were born at the exact time as the rest of your former cohort. You spent a couple centuries in combat against all kinds of foes in Lustria, and you saw some frankly bizarre shit in your time. What are these crossbows? Where did those four legged softskins come from where they need fur? Why do some of the prick ears have the markings of the Chaos Gods? They're the children of the Old Ones, they're not supposed to do that.

And then the ratspawn plagues came, and your unit died off in agony, while you suffered but powered through, and now you're mad as shit because you're the only one of your spawning left. You all had a mind link with one another that allowed you to fight in unison without words needed, and had a strong bond of loyalty to one another. Now they're dead, and you know who's responsible.

And because of how the war goes, you have to often fight alongside skittish and hyperactive skinks who need to be told constantly what to do and how to do it while they're so fragile in comparison to you.

And this is the time, you think back after two thousand years later, is when you really started to hate warmbloods.

I'm not that guy begging for dlc, however since it's my first campaign in warhammer i'll might as well shitpost it a little

I never played a warhammer game nor the tabletop, and i don't know shit about the lore so this is generic tolkien fantasy 101

Pretty nice, only problem is that the WH1 and WH2 logos at the top make the image somewhat confusing since your immediate thought on seeing them is that since the left column is headed by the WH1 logo, that must mean that all the factions listed in it are WH1 factions while the right column are all the WH2 factions. The actual columns seem to be left faction=good factions whil right column=evil factions.

Instead of odds and evens you should weight it for total warhammer 1 & 2 using time stamps. Basically 1-100 for characters within a game and the last second of the post time stamp to determine which game. This way you can also have it some what proportional.

I.e 1-8 is warhammer 1 while 9-10 is warhammer 2

They're early armour piercing units with decent armour and vanguard. They also work well vs gates.

It's a shame that they can't dig tunnels and rape enemy archers/arty. But they're still okay-ish.

>>172971108
There's no official lore on the subject, but there was a writer who put down his ideas of what would happen, even if they weren't published canonically:

Basically Grimgor or some other big-name Orc ends up stomping around Cathay for a while until he gets bored, and ends up making his way back through the Mountains of Mourn. He has a huge fight with the Orges, until he manages to kill Greasus Goldtooth and unite the Ogres under his banner (since he's now the biggest and strongest to them too). I forget what he does after that, but I think even this combined Orc/Ogre army gets wiped out by Chaos.
>>
>>172970664
Cheap militia style unit. I like to keep two around in the early game specifically to help deal with Grimgor and his starting Black Orcs, then shuffle them off when I get better anti-armor options. Upgrading to blasting charges as fast as possible is recommended.

With all the factions, subfactions and LL's the number ranges were starting to look stupid. Vampire Counts had lots of single numbers instead of ranges while other factions (e.g. Wood Elves) still had number ranges.

Instead of deploying with the rest of the army you get tokens for how many miner units you have and "summon" them in where and when you need them.

>close victory

If you're outnumbered by more than 3:1 it always should be a heroic victory, never mind the losses.

Contrariwise, if you're playing as Crooked Moon and win despite outnumbering the foe 3:1, you should get a Ded Kunnin' Victry.

Real "close" there, CA

Miragliano is a special city that gives you loadsemone and like a +50% bonus to all income producing buildings in the province, meaning that Tilea can support pretty massive armies. It's not unusual for Tilea to sit pretty at 3-5 strength rating despite never expanding beyond its home province.

i have chaos.
Why ask?

>>172976102
In my current Beastmen campaign, Tilea decided to end this 'chaos' bullshit by sending three and a half greatsword/handgunner/knight doomstacks at Archie.
Estalia helped with two more such stacks.

I pretty much shat a brick when I saw that, and decided to do something less dangerous. Like storming Karaz-a-karak or burnign down athel loren.

I unironically liked more back in the day of med 2 and rome 1 where my super ultra elite troops beating up 2x their number in complete peasant trash somehow counted as heroic victories

Felt good to kick ass
