I wanted to play as Ogres and every battle crashed after 5s. It turns out that big units are crashing battles on some pc. They said they probably fixed this in 1.5. I don't want to play Divide and Conquer or Stainless Steel again in med2...

>>173031207
How many years have people been saying that now?

>>173031341
Probably since it started being true.

>>173031091

>>173031298
I really want to play Ogres but I'm waiting 1.5 for that, I tried them once but they are very unfinished and don't have many units
Also I don't get why they gave Maneaters that appearance but all other ogres look very different. Don't all ogres look the same?

I don't know. I'm interested in this setting only after TW:W, so i'm not warhammer nerd. And all i know is that some of Ogres mutated/evolved into Yeti. For me it seems that Maneaters are just dressed like faction they serve/served which is cool, but maybe i'm missing something

>>173031482
>>173032264
Not all Ogres look the same, and some might be mixed race as well. Maneaters are just mercs who pick up style tips from the factiosn they serve. Yhetis aren't Ogres though (least they weren't in 7th), they lived in the mountains of mourn before the ogres came and the Ogres summon them by blowing horns and they ride the avalanches down to battle. You might be thinking of Gorgers though.

I just realized that this general hasn't helped me with anything other than a couple of mod recommendations.

So i started VH campaign without Darth mod and it's fun so far.
Why do we hate it, again?

>>173033618
ultra-bad ai and unresponsive units

>>173033618
also, it appears to switch your game to Polish

>>173033618
Empire is either my favorite or second favorite TW, it's a hard call, but fuck man. France is literally TWO provinces.

Gameplay, the open field battles are amazing. Napoopan does them better, but Napoopan also doesn't let me fight fucking Mughals, Indians, or watch as a foreign power suddenly undergoes a bloody revolution.

It's a game that does a lot of small things great in a way no game before or after has done (I think it's also the only TW that had legitimate 3-4 player coop during a beta test too), but has some major fuckups in the core gameplay. I can't remember if it was addressed in a patch or in Darthmod but originally the AI, for whatever reason, would just never try to actually invade England. So if you played them you were free to do whatever the fuck you wanted.

tl;dr Fun, experimental, but very flawed.

>ultra-bad ai
It's so much worse in comparsion to other TW? I played only few turns so far.
Is this Darth mod fixing those issues? I won't lose much if i have to start new campaign.
>>173033932
kek
>>173032568
Yeah, I thought about Gorgers,

>>173030958
So where do you go to find 1.4? I've looked at their ModDB page but all they have is 1.01? I feel like I might be missing something.

>>173033618
Fortress battles are bugged as fuck. But for all it's issues it's still one of my favourite TW games because it offers so much in terms of scope and variety.

>>173033618
I'd still reccomend darthmod if only for immersion alone, get the smoke and sound mods elsewhere if you don't want the whole package

>>173034238
Polandfag detected

>>173034510
I don't like to use mods for my first playthrough unless game is unplayable without them (like Vampire, but i played Kotor 2 without restoration). I like to enjoy game in vanilla state first and then install mods. So unless Empire is unplayable beacause of bugs or AI i don't want all of those other features from Darth (like units) for now.
I will try it in my second campaign, tho.

It's weird because the basic ogre unit aka "Ogre" are the same race as the Maneaters right? But look at the screenshot posted by that anon, see how some ogre icons look like models made up from scratch? The maneaters instead have icons that are the standard ogre appearance

>>173034272
Not sure what you mean but the only versions out there are 1.01 and a beta of the 1.5, which only a few testers are playing as far as I know
>they said it was gonna be just a few more days for 1.5 release
>just a little more they said

>>173035034
Units aside it does balance things differently so that fighting russia and austria is not the same, so you might want to check it out eventually. You also can remove fort battles, which you should as they're pretty much broken.

Yeah it can be pretty cringe. For few years at least i play every vidya rpg or other story heavy game in english version of subtitles and original (or fitting) voice acting. In strategy games it's not so important for me as there is barely any writing and battle advisor in Empire have a nice voice (campaign map advisor is worse, but they both will shut up eventually or i will disable them). Though I play TW:W in english because polish VA of advisior is strongly inferior to english version.

I think this map is very optimistic, I'm willing to bet they move Ulthuan south and to the west so they can cram the continents as close to each other as possible

>>173039296
you can ffa in Rome, used to play it all the time.

>>173040309
they said the size will be similar but there will be more provinces I think.
Honestly you can cut off the western halves of both Naggaroth and Lustria because they don't matter.
Having lustria and southlands all the way down to the cape doesn't really matter either except to show muh high elven naval might(autoresolve)

It will probably look similar to this
There's not much point in having the entirety of lustria or naggaroth in there when all the action happens on the eastern half of both those continents. Same with the southlands, aside from some lizards there isn't anything super interesting south of the Tomb Kings.

>>173040508

What's with the rebellious fucking archers? Pretty much every single order I give they manage to completely ignore- Shoot the cavalry, they refuse and shoot at some other archers. Shoot the archers, they refuse and shoot the cavalry. Shoot the infantry, they run back and forth without actually firing (skirmish mode is off)

18th century is one of my favoritw periods

>>173048764
>empire sounds boring
They don't have any unique campaign features, sure, but they're in between everything and everything else, so they have the most active campaign. That combined with a super diverse army roster makes them a ton of fun, definitly worth at least one playthrough.

>are the vampire cunts hard?
Not at all, super easy. They can replenish armies faster than anyone, and can take advantage of meat shield expendable units with powerful healing magic, while supplementing damage with handfuls of monstrous/elite units. Also, if you spam necromancers and banshees in your main territory along side income buildings, you can make a stupid amount of money.

>will i have ANY allies?
Most likely at best a few people might tolerate you, more likely you'll be on your own. Your starting position is pretty secure, so for the most part as long as you can keep the dwarves to your south & east either preoccupied with orcs, or killed and replaced by orcs, you can focus entirely on taking on empire factions and securing a foundation for fighting chaos

Well if you're serious, Radious can honestly be fun if you don't care about the lore. There are no doubt a lot of broken things about it, but if you just don't give a fuck and want lots of new units then by all means try it. It is a single player game, so do what you want. I would advise you use this submod though:

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=845029217

Lowers morale so units aren't quite as die hard, and removes the 'epic' stack spam.

They're more of a neutral faction really.

>>173048764
Vampires are easy, no one likes you but everyone around you is too busy to actually go to war with you.

No not really, they were half decent. They also weren't even all his mods. He really was just good about going around and getting permission from other modders with smaller mods, and then packaging them all under his 'Darth mod'. He's been modding since like Rome 1 I believe, but he only got real popular because everyone hated Empire and so all the big overhaul mods for it died. He was the only one that stuck with it, and so he was hyped up as the man that 'saved Empire.'

He had a big army of fanboys who loved him and thereafter always just said 'omg just play darthmod' when people asked for recommendations for things like Napoleon and Rome II, even though there are way better mod options in both those games. He wasn't a bad modder, but overall mediocre, with a massive ego and obnoxious fans to boot.

It's pretty crazy to see just how much modding activity there is for Total War: Warhammer
Is this the most modified Total War since Midievil 2?

There doesn't seem to be a way to cut them out of the map neatly, and giving them pre-existing asset units would be glaringly lazy even to people who don't know crap about the lore. TWW1 added 3 races during it's post release cycle, but currently the only one that makes sense for TWW2 is Skelebros.

I think a Southlands colony was established by the Empire at one point following the Arabyan Crusades. Sudenburg. I have no idea if it's still around by the time of TW: Warhammer, though.

seems like araby would be most likely for FLC
tomb cocks seem more like DLC material to me

Araby had a handful of official models, but I don't think they ever got any official rules, not like the Dogs of War who had a fairly well-developed roster at one point.

>>173053204
I think so but the issue is that there's no solid roster for Araby to flesh out so its up to CA to take some liberties if GW allows.

But we could see Dogs of War and Araby as DLC.

there is Nagash Exilee Colony at the bend of the Dark Lands, but I'm not sure if it'll be included.

>>173053204
Considering how CA has shown a willingness to do their own thing. I wouldn't be too shocked if they showed up in some form.

I like that kind of artstyle, it's a shame we never seen it anywhere these days

It's odd that this is the only general I've been in where instead of saying "dumb frogposter" when someone posts a pepe people instead of "le reddit/pol/frog". Very strange.

Well, which one is it?

>>173053740
There's enough there to work with, I think.

>>173053740
I would probably shell out the denari for that, honestly. I'm a sucker for human factions fighting against all the fantasy craziness.

I'm planning on doing a campaign in Napoleon as Austria cucking Italians early and ruling the Adriatic then the Med and then just building up my current land then eventually fucking pappy with the Russians.

Is Darth mod still a decent mod for Napoleonon? I can never get any of the other mods to work without crashing especially on Windows 10
