Pike and shot is a tercio. A mixture of pikemen and arquebus/musket-armed units in a single formation. In terms of Total War: a unit that has a moderate ranged attack fireable but not reloadable on the move. It is devestating against cavalry due to the pikes, and capable of holding its own ground against melee infantry due to the mixed in halberds and sword-wielding infantrymen.

I know I'm hopping on the bandwagon here, but I really hope magic gets a serious balance pass by the release of twwh 2. It would be pretty pathetic for the slann to be as mediocre as Gelt, who should also be stronger than he currently is.

Magic needs to be made stronger altogether imo. A thunderbolt or something should KILL all the niggers it hits. Shit like Spirit Leech should heal the caster, explosions should DESTROY health pools of large units and those moving circle abilities should be directable and deal more damage with each hit

You clearly can't.

I'm regularly getting 250-400 kills in sieges with him, and that's ignoring the fact that his bombardment spell doesn't add to his kill count.

I build my whole army strat around him and he's amazing.

Thing is it requires patience and building all your tactics around it.

That's why people only ever recommend buff & debuff spells or direct damage shit, which is the least rewarding to use (especially as half of them have the same spell effect and just deal damage instead of what the spell is actually suppose to do). These spells don't require you to change shit, you just tack on a wizard and get some fairly underwhelming buffs & healing, which whilst really powerful aren't that cool.

With vortex & bombardment spells you can pull off some crazy army destroying combos which routes everything in seconds, it just takes time to set up and is more tricky to pull off, as it should be.

>like foot and comet not quite dealing enough damage for what they cost.
I hear you on comet, but foot of gork is probably the single best spell to use on an enemy wall in a siege. It can take half the HP off like 4-5 units at once.

>>173290686
If you mean make magic legit as powerful as the mary-sue lore than sure, lets have Gelt construct an auric barrier around all the empire provinces that stops anyone invading for 30 turns.

Making magic much more powerful than it is now would be broken for a total war game. All that really needs doing is buffing the worse spells up to par with the best spells & making some of the point & click spells more interesting.

Vampire Counts unloaded three stacks of zombies, skeletons and grave guards on my poor little half strength castle town garrison and they just flooded the fuck over them in like a minute.

I'm kind of bored of this game faster than the other games before it. I have 300 hours I think. What made this game get boring quick is that there is no sense of advancement. In Medieval 2 you keep advancing for like 100 turns and when you reach the pinnacle of advancement you reach the gunpowder age to unlock more buildings. Then you reach a mongol invasion to spice things up. Meanwhile in warhammer you can start recruiting some of the highest tiers within 50 turns and chaos invades. All of this before 100 turns. My first campaign was nearly over 600 turns. But most of it was high tier troops already unlocked. Don't you faggots tell me that your campaigns ended within 100 turns.

>>173299316
>Don't you faggots tell me that your campaigns ended within 100 turns.

Bretts can easily end before turn 100 though.

Laddering walls makes troops really tired, plus they have to go up a few at a time, taking a while for it happen.
Siege towers are siege towers, they serve their purpose.

I don't think I ever reached 200 turns in any campaign, and I've beaten very hard on every race except orcs and chaos (I don't like those two)

The longest it took for me to win a long campaign on very hard was with the dwarves because they have to conquer some really far away shit. Most turns was moving all the way up. And even then it took me 180 something turns.

??

>>173301037
But now it feels like sieges are always an instant loss, especially since the AI only seems to attack when I have nothing but puny garrisoned forces.

And when I'm besieging, it feels like half of my units (especially cavalry, who can't get in until the gate's down) are just getting shredded by fire from the towers that they can't escape from. There's no real strategy to it beyond 'maybe I can attack two places at once.' The fights on the wall feel awkward, and there's no point to capturing enemy towers. If I feel like sieges are better in Medieval 2, I think there's a problem.

>>173301721
Oh, and I realized why the wall fights feel awkward - you can't actually put two units in the same place, at least not without one facing inside the keep for some reason. You can't double layer a group of spearmen to defend a part of the wall you know will get attacked, or make sure that your archers will be defended by a layer of melee troops to allow them to pull away safely.

>>173304675

I wasn't attacking anyones allies. Was attacking Norrland and Middenheim, who were being gigantic cunts to the rest of the empire (who hate me)

I think it started with Karak Hirn disliking my NAP+Trade rights with the border princes, but that was 10+ turns ago but it looks like it never wore off? Was at -20 when I got a no warning war from them on end turn. These brought the stunties that won the crooked moon bowl, followed by the vamp cunts seeing weakness.

I probably have to roll this campaign like 30+ turns back and reassess my response to Marienburg taking two provinces from Middenheim and Norrland taking Gorrsel. Middenheim+Norrland both are defensive and hate the empire, so was gonna seize their lands and make Norrland a Spear+xbow recruit zone, and Middenheim my cav zone.

Already have fallen in love with the 6 chevron swordsmen from Wissenland, with greatswords on their way.

>>173307862
I got to turn 200 or so, it seemed like a lost campaign, i was sad, i went from 7 holds to 2, chaos was killing everything absolutely everything, it was a full map purge. Then i caught Archaeon, snikked em good and making a run for 8 peaks. I had to claw out a new home in the south and start again. Dwarves and Beastmen forever and ever my friend.

>>173307862
I just get bored and shelve my campaign. I have a shitty obsession with maxing out infrastructure and making "best" 9 rank army, which obviously takes a ton of time. By the point I field army I already burnt out and just quit the campaign, not like any faction can do anything to me by that point anyway.

It was even worse in previous TW titles, with their golden weapons and armours. Gotta try another with not really giving a fuck about any of this.

>>173307996
The 'Chaos rides in and kills everything' happens way too regularly.

And it feels like in most games, the Empire just folds completely even before Archie arrives.

But if you are Skarsnik, and you get K8P and the surrounding area, there is nothing that can stop you.

Maybe in Warhammer 3. They can't make entire game based around Chaos. Not everyone like to play as edgy dipshits. They need good faction like Empire or Helves and neutral Ogres aren't enough

Jabberslythe strikes again.

>>173316049
Doesn't seem so, not specifically.

However, Septik is the main thrall clan of pestilence and so we'll get all those units and apparently carrion love skrye tech so they have a bunch of that.

In my mind we are putting WAAAAAY too much weight on these symbols

For all we know they could literally have been put there by some graphic designer who doesn't even know what they mean and just picked them out of the set of Skaven clan symbols because they look neat.

Under which banner was Wurrzag hidden? "New Lord" or "New Faction"?
If he was hidden under "New Lord" we still have chance for new LL for Empire with alternate starting postition.

>>173316196
Arkhan is his friend.

>>173295062
>>173305905
but the reason Kholek looks like that is because they just reused the dragon ogre skeleton and made it massive rather than making a new skeleton with different proportions & unique animations.

He should really have bulkier arms & upper body.

>>173316410

Neither are in the game so it makes no sense still.

>>173315467
>>Still live with your mother
They live separately and she sometimes comes to stay over at his place.

>>173316347
New Lord.

>>173315467
>>You haven't get laid for at least 6 000 years
He fucks his mom every now and then, and IIRC some of his underling lords at least claim to trace their ancestry back to him.

>>173316347
>>173316636
But the New Lord in that picture was Isabella Von Carstein. The only thing left on the FLC chart is actually the Old Friend

>>173302180
>You can't double layer a group of spearmen to defend a part of the wall you know will get attacked
You can't do double layers of archers which is a bit stupid, but you can do double layers of melee troops, you just too to give the group facing inwards an attack order on the enemy dudes on your walls.

I've never played as the Huns before, any tips?

Playing with FOTE and Europa Perdita

>>173316879
One thing arriving alone doesn't sound like a new faction, does it?

It sounds like a hero or lord who's part of an existing faction.

>>173316975
I want it to be Kurt Helborg or Ludwig Schwarzhelm, but it is probably Krell given that someone at CA has a massive bone-r for the VC.

>>173316806
It'd make so little sense to add Krell and leave the most prominent faction in the Old World with only one start point and three legendary lords in favor of adding content to the most bloated faction there is.

It doesn't seem like it'd be -that- hard to add middenheim, but it doesn't look like they are interested in doing it. A real shame.

>>173316975
but it still can be Gotrek or Schwarzhelm or Helborg or Valten or even a fucking dragon for Karl Franz.

>>173317046
honestly I'd be pretty disappointed with getting a new empire LL who doesn't give them a new faction start position.

Kemmler feels kind of incomplete at the moment though, and having a reason to take him / an early answer to his lack of melee capabilities would be great.

Could be. But hey, we'll have plenty of time until the release/introduction videos so might as well speculate.

>>173317190
>in favor of adding content to the most bloated faction there is.
A legendary hero exclusive to one legendary lord is a pretty small thing though, it doesn't really add anything to the bloat.

Another LL & start position certainly would, but Krell would be more a finishing touch / buff to the worst LL in the game currently.

>>173316449
I am his friend, you fucking faggot

>>173316347
I mean, the picture for the Old Friend looks like middenheim though, right?

>>173316692
I know, but if Wurrzag was hidden under "New Lord" and still came with his own faction maybe Old Friend will came with his own faction too.
Please

Set the world on fire. A slow horde is a dead horde. Use your agents to scout ahead and give you at least enough warning for a full turn of movement.

Oh, and don't be afraid to subjugate enemy factions at will. Spend a couple of turns replenishing in friendly territory before you kill them and move on.
