It's awesome in sieges where you can lose whole units often, and chokepoints turn into deathtraps since you can just spawn a flank-attack on a blobbed up enemy.

See how I stroll, stride, swagger and swirl, spin, slash and stab at stupid senseless scum.

are the top tier. In my opinion they should be equal but w/ slight differences to set them apart

>>175419030
really, it's a toss-up in a lot of ways

tabletop, you can judge some units as objectively better than others by the statlines, but with the RNG of d6s you could have blood knights job to mounted fucking yeomen, or demigryphs break against goblin wolf riders. if i had the codices i could make a good ranking, but off the cuff orge mournfang cav and khorne juggernaughts are absolute nightmares, followed by blood knights and demis, with grail knights at a suspiciously low tier (reason: low model count of 12 max)

lorewise, its anyones fucking guess since each codex talks up itself. grail knights are probably the contender for best in show, since they are much more numerous, active, and favored by the lady. its not that uncommon for grail knights to facetank a cannonball, as stupid a meme as it sounds.

>>175423702
Thats not such a bad composition, you just needed miners with blasting charges and thunderers. There's also never not a good reason to bring the gob lobber, and it'd be particularly good here. Also why ungrim? He's not even in the consideration for top 3 dwarf lords. Were you going for a slayer meme army and then getting salty when it didn't work?

Foot Squires are by far bretonnia's most efficient tool against dwarfs, so you have to expect a lot of them. What role were the dwarf warriors in your line supposed to play? What did you expect them to fight?

You get bigger memes in the custom match where everyone is terrible at the game.

I hate miners w/ blasting charges because they always seem to ff or never shoot, and thunderers against brets is dumb because of the cav. I prefer cannons vs brets because they are better vs cav than the gob lobber. Ungrim is useful because of his innate bonus vs large + the bonus vs large from the axe of dargo, which makes him take out the mounted lords/grail reliquae really fucking fast. The dwarf warriors were actually able to beat some of the foot squires thanks to the rune lord support, and would have been fine if they weren't facing fucking 12 of them. They also have charge def against large unlike the ones w/ gw in case of cheeky frontal cav charges

>>175429743

>planning [this] much around the cav
At most you are going to see like four units of it, you overcompensated and got shut down really hard.

Thunderers can easily be protected enough to make charging them an unattractive prospect for cav, they are cheaper than most of what they are gunning down in the Bretonnian matchup. One group can go a long way.

Dwarfs lean heavily on a few key regiments of renown to stay competitive. Its basically never not a good idea to take the Grumbling Guard and the Gob-Lobber.

>>175429938
longbeards with great weapons have charge defense against cav, and do much better against either foot squires or knights than an equivalent points of dwarf warriors.

There are 3 maps. The Old World (if you own 1), The New World (if you own 2) and the Grand campaign if you own both.

The Grand campaign map is both maps combined. This map doesnt have all the features of the New World map like the vortex win conditions, but it does let you play all the factions of 1 and 2 together, as well as all the DLC.

I started my first playthrough on hard as Empire (only played dwarfs on normal before). How early should I attempt to take Marienburg? I'm 16 turns in and confederated Stirland cause they were getting fucked over by orcs and Von Carsteins. Now Von Carsteins declared war on me, so I have to stay there. Fortunately, Marienburg is the only province with imperial distrust, but they're just camping two stacks on their capital so I have no way to take it at this time.

Actually yeah, I don't think I'll even try it.

I watched the mod page video on SFO wood elves and it makes Wardancer's as fast as Boar boyz...

Does it generally change all units to be faster or something or is this just how silly SFO is?

am I a shitter for playing on vh/n?

>>175465339
It makes a few infantry units have sanic speed, yeah, most notably wardancers and dismounted vampires.

Vlad has 70 speed in SFO, for instance, he can just haul ass across the battlefield.

>>175465339
SOF tries to make units as close to lore as possible. So yeah SOF silliness.

>>175465339
>or is this just how silly SFO is?
Don't even let me start about garrisons in SFO

>>175464501
Just try it? What's there to lose, aside from maybe a couple hours at worst if you don't like it.

>>175465683
You're a shitter for your poor taste in women.

>>175465769
Lore is based on narratives though, not scientific reports on elf anatomy.

The lore might say wardancers are the most agile elves in the entire world, but ruleswise it gives them the same movespeed as every other elf on TT.

I got the notification for regiments of renown but the button isn't showing up. wat do?

>Not a single chariot in sight
Comfy, bros. If every norsca fight was like this, I wouldn't autoresolve all of them.

Have anyone good music tips to conquer the world?

Is steel faith worth using when playing as chaos?

>>175467032
your units get MUCH better, but so do garrisons, so balance that out

desu, get the "Warlords of Chaos" mods and the Awaken->Vassal mod

>>175466773
>Not a single chariot in sight
teach us your secrets

>>175468239

Just get a recruitment mod to get rid of chariot spam.

this is not whfb /tg/ thread buddy

Is there a working and updatet "weaker Towers" mod?

>>175460412
>End Times
It's not, Karl's super sayan was a disgusting asspull, and the tipping point when the End Times went from "this is looking good" to "just fuck my WHFB up senpai"

Usual Ghal Maraz aimbot magic is fine tho

>>175465771
I actually really like that change.

>>175463839
I mean I just bought the beastie boys but let's see what the gods think I should play

>>175465771
the garrisons in SFO are alright. at least for me.

>being so obsessed and defensive

He went full super-unberogen by literally remembering WE WUZ BARBARIANS while fighting against an orc, long before end times

>am I a shitter for playing on vh/n?
vh/n doesn't exist.

Your a shitter because you don't know how to check the morale of enemy units to see if changing the difficulty settings actually did anything.

>>175470547
>The Warhammer which the setting is named for is incredibly powerful
Makes you think

I agree tho, Karl's appeal is being just a human with a cool hammer, going WE WUZ BARBARIANS is as bad as the WE WUZ SIGMAR Endtimes shit

>>175471945
Faggots like you are the reason GW felt the need to push the lol chaos wins button.

Why Kemmler is a vampire hero? He struck bargain with Chaos gods to come back to his former power.

>>175463839

Hey friends what do you think of SFO? Thinking of playing a steel faith overhaul Greenskins campaign but I never played a vanilla greenskins campaign before.

Boy, you best take yer fancy "end times canon" elsewhere, we dont cotton to yer kind too much 'round these parts

>>175472616
hey man, bringing back my boy Nagash could have been an interesting shift from the constant Chaos wanking

It all went downhill from there tho

>>175472329
Have fun with your Gobbo Archers. :v)

>>175470787
Fuggen Slaanesh, I already played Brovald twice. If anything I'll play Kholek but I'll just reroll

>only race I can't win with is dwarfs
>their manlet grudges always make me go to the other side of the map and if I don't it gets progressively worse
Why the fuck should I have to listen to some angsty dwarfs diary to dictate my society?

>>175472664
I am doing a VH/VH Greenskin campaign with SFO right now and it is pretty fun. I recommend getting some cav fast you so you get the elite dwarf units to chase your cav forever.

Also my strategy of not expanding beyond the three "starting" settlements in the early game and only focusing on sacking works pretty well.

My main region got fully upgraded by the midgame. My income was shit, but I had two elite stacks and one low tier one while having a shit-ton of money

>End Times
anon, this is straight from my Vampire Counts army book from like 2003

>Heinrich Kemmler ws once a great and much feared Necromancer, until ambitious rivals began to usurp his power. They nearly succeesed in driving Lichemaster to his death and, although he finally managed to beat off his attackers, his body was broken and his mind blasted in the battle. For many years Heinrich wandered the Grey Mountains and the border Princes as little more than a half-sane beggar, until by some quirk of fate he stumbled on the tomb of Krell, a long-dead Chaos warrior. here he struck a terrible pact with the gods of Chaos. They restored him to his former power and, in return, Heinrich swore to slay and destroy in their name.

At least pretend that you know the lore.

>>175471945
The warhammer had nothing to do with it, it was all due to superior human genes

>>175472616
>assumptions

>>175473567
Most people bitching at the lore don't know it outside of 1d4chan, /tg/ memes, stereotypes and some tidbits from the most recent books here and there

>>175473332
Well fuck this rolling business, I hate playing greenskins. Beastmen it is
