What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little marsupial shit? I’ll have you know I spawned top of my pool as a Slann Mage-Priests, and I’ve been involved in numerous raids on Chaos, and I have over 3 million confirmed kills. I am trained in magical warfare and I’m the top Slann in the entire Lizardman race living. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with magic the likes of which has never been seen before on this World, mark my fucking words on a gold tablet. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Warp? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my army of Slann brethren across the World and your location is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, sewer filth. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, you furry faggot. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my basic spells. Not only am I extensively trained in magical combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the Lizardmen and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, rat.

They are entirely neutral

Basically they are just humans, who are immortal and have no flesh. TKs have helped all the factions and fought all the factions at one time or another, officially or through smaller bands.

Although in the end times they basically go pure evil since Nagash is a huge fucking cunt and wants to kill everything everywhere (including the warp) to take under his control.

>>173219703
They are neutral too, even more so than TKs

Every army has Ogres in it as mercenaries.

They are sort of like orcs. But instead of war they want food, and they dont care who gives it to them. They are willing to work any job for it and often adopt the culture they join in so they look pretty swag

>>173219220
Considered bad by other races because spooky undead

Kangz themselves are neutral however, since some are good and some are bad and Settra himself is just a human king, except undead.

Youtubers are shit.

>>173220189
RATS ARE WICKED COOL-COOL NERDRUNT

>>173219703
Chaos Dwarfs are the least popular "major" race because GW never released the official army book they were planning before they ended the entire WHFB setting.

The Chaos Dwarfs not being a fully fleshed out race hurt the Ogres because the Ogres are to the east of the Chaos Dwarfs- meaning that Ogres didn't really have much interaction with too many races.

Ogres as a result are just mercenaries who are really hungry.

Is it just unit re-balances to make combat longer and elite units stronger?

>>173222165
I think it changes around some things on the campaign map and adds a few units but nothing much. I can't stand playing battles without it

>>173222165
I wouldn't say that it makes combat longer, but I have to agree about making elite units stronger.

I really enjoy that aspect of it though, its nice to have units that are as tough as they are in the fluff.

>>173221180
CDs had cool monsters like the Lammasu. If Dwarfs can be popular then evil dwarfs with cool monsters can be popular.

So if I understand this right, Mannfred backstabs Gelt making conehead elf explode thus world explodes. And now Mannfred is some skeltor living in endless undeath with nothing? Why'd he even stab Gelt?

If Chaos was defeated there was a good chance Nagash would proceed to wreck everyone and make the world spooky Undeath forever. Mannfred couldn't stand the thought of slaving under Nagash for eternity so he stabbed Gelt and made the ritual fail, thus exploding the world.

It was supposed to be a final end for everything. Mannfred did not know about Age of Sigmar.

Anon, where do you suppose you are? Saying you don't like things doesn't make you interesting, you know.

>>173224810
Dark Eldar and Dark Elves are pretty different. Dark Eldar don't give a fuck about normal Eldar and just want to snort cocaine while sucking souls from other people to remain immortal- they're more similar to vampires I guess.

Dark Elves believe they're the rightful rulers of Ulthuan and that Elves should conquer the entire world. But they don't act on that second one until they've reconquered Ulthuan and unified the elves under their control.

>>173225535
You have very cheap light cavalry and reasonably-priced flying monsters for that reason.

Always bring two or three Aspiring Champions, don't overload on Chosen. A marauder melee line can be better than you'd expect, especially if you are having problems with guns and artillery.

Forsaken are broadly speaking better than standard Chaos Warriors for the same price, if you can get them to the front safely.

Kholek is the most competitive legendary lord, although Archaeon giving immunity to psychology can be situationally very effective, and makes using trolls reasonable.

>>173225812
Archaons unbreakable is great, it makes chosen so much better their biggest weakness is that they are not immune to terror.

>>173220205

>the AI will relentlessly spam skaven assassins with op success chances

How does the relation between witch hunters and mages look like in Warhammer world? I heard somewhere that it is similar to templars vs mages conflict from Dragon Age. Does it mean that using magic is only allowed in special places like colleges of magic?

So are the phoenix guard a rare, elite unit or are they like the eternal guard for welves?

>>173226598
Eternal Guard are a weird case because they are semi-elite even for elven spearmen, and are better at it than High Elf spearmen, which are more of a levied citizen force. They can fight in an extra rank, but individually are worse than Eternal Guard.

Disciplined spear ranks are a big part of the High Elf experience as distinguishing them from Wood Elves though, so CA might goof and give them stats at least as good as Eternal Guard, when really they should be worse. Ideally they'll bring back the phalanx button for High Elves so they fight worse individually but better as a unit, which would capture it perfectly.

In theme, they're pretty similar. Edgy, love to torture, lots of slaves, they live in Slavesville.

In practice, they're a bit different. Delves want to genocide all Helves and worship the evil Elf gods, and worshipped Slaanesh in older fluff. Alternatively, Deldar are pretty neutral overall towards Eldar, will target them if they're vulnerable but are not opposed to working together (as in, actually working for a goal rather than just pawns). Deldar also do not worship anyone and have to torture/drink souls to avoid getting eaten by Slaanesh over time. Delves just torture for the hell of it.

Going by 1d4chan:
>Clan Mors: Warlord Clan. Lots of warriors, lots of fighting. Main seat in Karak Eight Peaks.
>Clan Rictus: Skaven jews. More or less in charge of all the Skaven trade via the underway.
>Clan Carrion: Skaven gypsies, master scavengers and thieves, steal everything that isn't bolted down.
>Clan Pestilens: closeted nurgle worshipers. Also main enemies of Lizardmen

Why do people say Wood Elves ar NEETs? Is this a anime meme? The wood elves work very hard from what I can see, defending their forest and maintaining order around the old world. Additionally, they're quite exquisite vinters and craftsmen of every variety. The only thing that would imply they're NEETs is their wanton decadence in the form of feasts and parties, but that's an elf trope across the board.

>>173219050
I've noticed that the AI just cannot play as Brettonia because they have so many building options and all their provinces have only two regions. It's just brutal on the AI because they can't plan ahead to specialize provinces so they end up being completely unable to get high-tier units. This is a problem the AI has in general, but it's exacerbated by Brettonia's unique conditions.

This contrasts with tryhard Dark Elves and High Elves who have world-spanning ambitions and spend the entirety of their long lives striving against each other and for global domination.

Finally and perhaps most importantly, Athel Loren is removed from the constraints of time and space, meaning that the Wood Elves have achieved the ultimate NEET dream of ascending to the 2D realm.

Malekith was also bff's with the dwarfs and hailed as the greatest elf since his Anerion 'I kill demons with my dick by turning around'.

Typically, I like two kinds of infantry in my armies, one to hold a line and one to tear up large armored units. Dwarf Warriors are fine even into the late game, and having one or two Longbeards mixed in really stiffens 'em up. In the late game when you have more money than God you can roll with Ironbreaker/Hammerer armies.

t. Marius Leitdorf

>>173236939
Fair. They're fragile and expensive to get started, but they do have advantages. They're faster, they sort of count as both shielded against ranged and GW/Anti- large. Also, you're going to want to go down their building line at least once just to get Grombrindal if he's not your starting lord. He's that good.

>>173236886

>>173236517
Also, bring a runesmith and put it down the yellow line. In all your main armies, if possible. The buffs are stupid strong and make your already durable melee units nigh on unkillable.

On whether or not to use GWs, or gunpowder over bows/bolts - it's whether or not the army you are fighting is armor heavy.

>>173223113
FW book only has elite Chaos Dwarf units though.

If they were implemented in TWW we'd likely get a full roster with normal Chaos Dwarf warriors who are the ones with silly hats.

Infernal Guard are the endgame units, and they'll probably be the closest we'll get to a full gunpowder army being viable cos they can all take halberd rifles.

Hopefully they'd include blunderbuss's as well, considering ogre leadbelchers basically function in the same way.

Those are just the most noteworthy clans and there are countless others, they're just not worth mentioning because they're either bootlickers and lackeys to the clans at the table or they don't have enough strength or influence to warrant a seat.

All this outrage about monsters, and the real thing that's missing is tuskgor chariots. Cheap chariots were a staple of a lot of beastmen armies because they were core.

>>173242234
I get that they should have them but seriously fuck chariots.

What kind of secrets? How to win the affection of a doe?

>>173242353
The lore of warhammer is really well written.

>>173242353
Such racist Stirlanders denying the chosen Halflings their homeland

>>173242552
And they fucking blew it up. Christ.

>>173242603
You know if the empire would just contract the halflings to act as cooks for the ogres they would never have to worry about chaos or vampires ever again.

>>173242353
Hey now, the Halflings have a Sigmar-given right to that land.

tell em whatever you fucking wantbut races, lore, world and politics are FAR more interesting in warhammer than LotR.


Better not talk about world of shitcraft

>>173242808
>Sigmar-given
A ridiculously corrupt fat Emperor-given.

>>173242552

It's little things like these that makes it feel like a real place, unlike settings like Warcraft and the like, and most definetely Age of Sigmar.

>>173242813

LotR has some beautiful languages, but their cultures are kinda bland in hindsight, yes. Hobbits seem the more fun followed by dwarves.

>>173242552

At times it shines.

Gorbash and Wazzog when.

I'd take issue with that and say;
Lord of the Rings was written by a Linguistics Professor who loved writing, history and song.
Warhammer and Warcraft are made to sell Tabletop/Video games. They're for different purposes.

>>173242860
Don't dispute the rule of the Emperor boy. Any one of the three if you're a time traveller.

Kek, he can't even handle a few skeletons.

Meanwhile, I'm sitting here in my halfling-ho... I mean, my very tall Altdorf mansion having to deal with my taxes.

Do Wood Elves have any armoured units, or can I safely fill my roster with Fire Archer Peasants?
