To be fair I was exaggerating a bit, but there are a few variants of units/bosses that are still missing that could really help fill them out more.

Arachnarok spider variants, Troll variants, Spear chuckkas, mangler squigs, snotlings, pump wagon, Savage/Black Orc Warboss's

That's not even going into the orc/goblin spear units or night goblin netters.

That mountain was Cadath.

They're not gonna give us anything today, are they?

>>181621089

Exactly. Through the elves, Nagash was able to do what he'd only been able to do via the gods before. Just saying that the Nehekarans were unaturally vital because of their relationship to their gods, which means Nagash had much more time on his hands to master Dhar and other hocus pocus than any human in the Empire had for the Lore they chose.

>>181621089
wonder if they'll add the priest king dirigibles that basically won them the war against Nagash. If anythign undead would be ideal airship pilots since they'd never need to land.

>>181621425

>>181622004
There are maybe two to three hundred Pike & Shot fans in the world.
Do you know how many fans of Chinese Military History there are?

>>181622004

>Do you know how many fans of Chinese Military History there are?

13th - 19th century China is the only correct answer.

>>181620086
>"But why?"

BUT WHY

>>181622098
Pike and shot is objectively the best period.
I'd also be ok with 15th century again and get the hussite wars but that obviously wont be it.
And yeah but it is not like chinks actually buy games they torrent.
Also i like certain parts of chinese history like fall of Ming but not three kingdoms boring shite. But obviously if they ever do China they will do 3 kingdoms first because then you have a couple equal strenght factions instead of later in history where certain factions are basically all of china

What are your opinions on Starting Traits Remastered and other mods by this guy?

For me it's gained a position in my "essential for every playthrough" list, alongside SFO and Province Overhaul

>>181623202

>>181621559
The war was won by nagash being assassinated and Arkhan being only level 2 at the time

>>181623431

Looking at the Steam description and the screenshots it seems neat, though I can't help but notice that (in the screenshots at least) there are only positives in the traits. There's only one that's sort of negative (the one with 15% less prisoners after a battle). Has he removed all the negative ones completely?

>>181623431

Opinion discarded.

>>181623882
If you check the Google doc he links in the description, you'll see that no. You can still gain completely negative traits (although from my understanding the Likes X garbage is out) and some traits still have negatives, like Maimed Arm, Maimed Leg and Blind.

>>181623801
Renaissance also means a larger variety in tactics especially as the game goes on, although they'd have to balance properly for you to access high tier units before the upgrades happen, although perhaps the big counts do this more easily e.g. Austria and Bavaria, as their levies are more rich

I've enjoyed it a lot. Really solid changes.

>>181624171
Adds 8 building slots to province capitals, and 10 building slots to the faction's capital, 12 to Athel Loren forests and a few extra to Norscan fucking shits. It also relocates capitals of factions who's mission is to take theirs back - Crooked Moon/Angrund, Drakenhof then Altdorf to Von Carnsteins, and even Empire Secessionists and Red Fangs on the nonplayable side.

Plus it gives a small, compatibility-free boost to the AI because it allows them to build all they need. A player who optimizes well gets no big bonus from the mod besides some extra comfort, but the AI can finally field proper armies in the late game.

I was just thinking, but do you guys total war would benefit from a sandbox type campaign map similar to how an RTS works?

Like, say you have a standard, small campaign map but only 4 players or so in each corner of the map. You can pick the races that start in each spot, alliances, etc. The purpose would be to have smaller, faster, dynamic campaigns.

What do you think? t. not CA

>>181624384
FEAR THE GHORST

>>181624696
Like how 4X games have pocket sized boards for fast (in 4X terms at least) games? Sure.

What are the essential Attila mods? Going to start a Himyar campaign.

The one in the pastebin seems outdated. FOTE and Radious are too game-changing for me.

>>181624696

Just fucking give us back campaign modding tools so we can make our own smaller maps

Fucking CA, man

>>181624815
There aren't really any "essential" Attila mods, aside from the usual camera mod. The rest are Quality of Life mods which you'll be able to make your own decision on as you get into the game.

The faster you grab the State Troop Sargents the better, it benefits the entire campaign and you never stop needing Swordsmen and Halberdiers.

Swordsmen are great to hold the line, better than Greatswords because they're cheaper and have missile resistance. You should have about 3 Swordsmen units to tank the initial blow and only commit the greatswords after that.

Halberdiers are anti-large, so they deal better with Cavalry and monsters than greatswords.

State-Issued weapons affect Swordsmen and Halberdiers. Don't know if they also affect Greatswords, but I think so.

Help. I just started new Empire playthrough but I'm not getting quest to intercept reinforcments from Boris.

How to make world war total wars work:

1. Campaign map similar to napoopan but with more towns to dig into
2. Opposing armies form a "front line" where they block each other and attrition slowly sets in until battle map is engaged
3. Depending on the size of the front, you may need to play 3 or 4 battles to defeat the enemy army at certain "strong points".
4. You can choose what part of the front line to place your divisions in, eg. Tanks in center with 3rd/4th divisions. 1st division left flank, 2nd right flank. Artillery support can be summoned offscreen unless enemy reaches area behind your front.
5. Seperate battles occur at each section of the front, making it dynamic in a way. You may collapse the enemy center but his left and right flanks can still attack you next turn for a counter.

Its still in progress but I think its good

Anyone else here hoping they won't announce the next historical title until after they've announced TWWH3, not out of hating history but because of the butthurt it would cause?

The reaction to TWWH2 was hilarious, it'll be even better when the third one gets announced a year from now with no historical announcement in between.

>>181632973
Sounds inspired by Soviet adoption of the concept of "Operations" level of warfare, which sat between Strategy and Tactics
For comparison, we can say Total War is a two level game, with Strategy Level and Tactics Level
So it becomes a "Three Level" game, I don't think there is any precedent for this, is there?

Expect a large amount of the FLC and DLC for TWW2 to focus on the Combined Campaign (New World + Old World).
We can expect some areas of the Old World to get new content in the Combined Campaign.

* the race pack will be Norsca, as they felt Norsca needed more units to keep them interesting given their presence as a relatively common antagonist in the TWW2 campaign

Antiochus III was pretty legit for the Seleucids, don't know why he decided to go full retard with the Romans in Greece, maybe he was going senile.

>>181635406

Already confirmed not to be Kislev though. So I'm thinking Border Princes, Tilea or Estalia then for something that didn't have army book?

Most fan-speculation have converged on it being a fully fleshed out Norsca faction, though obviously that's only speculation.

The other obvious option is Southern Realms (Tilea, Estalia, Border Princes) but CA seem pretty dismissive of the idea when it is put to them.

>>181635669
There's one tempting reason to consider Southern Realms; there appears to be a Southern Realms themed faction in TWW2, seen in the campaign flyover. Pizzalatto's Legion or something. One has to assume that whatever this race pack is, it was developed to synergize with work they're doing on WH2.

He managed to make Pontus and Parthia satraps again(granted, in name only they weren't on good terms), and put down a jewish rebellion then when shit hit the fan in Greece and he saw an opportunity to expand he cocked it all up by underestimating the Romans and by taking a break in the middle of the war to have a wedding and a party with an army that wasn't as disciplined as the Romans before he threw them a party to celebrate his marriage to a random peasant girl. According to Wikipedia the sillykids always had trouble holding their empire together and Antiochus III is basically the start of it's death rattle.

You're wrong about everything. Antiochus III made Armenia a tributary while curtailing the power of Parthia and Bactria. He also restored general control of Asia while later destroying the Ptolemaic faggots by taking Lower Syria and their Asia Minor holdings. He also took Thracia and then spent around ten years in a cold war with Rome before entering Greece at the invitation of the Achean league. He lost due to overestimating the amount of men the Greeks would provide while generally being fucked due to the shit quality of his Greek allies. Then he lost as Magnesia due to shitty chariot memes and the eternal Pergamese.

The Jewish rebellion happened during the reign of Antiochus IV with the decline happening after the death of Demetrius II

You can switch your stance with the green icon near grimgor's portrait. If you haven't moved at all yet in your turn, you can switch to Underway stance, which lets you circumvent impassable terrain.

And yes those trees are impassable. In a couple years when we have the super omega campaign map it will likely be a passage to the dark lands.

Draw Franz making maruaders of chaos run away by the glory of Ghal Maraz

>>181640806
ahh altight. lets hope I can reach the dwarf fortress next turn through the underground.

also
the Green Prophet just came and said some shit to me. which made me lose 4 obedience in all my lands. it said to "apease him" thefuck do I do that? theres no quest objevtive in that regard.

Also can I destroy those dwarf cities in the bottem east conor of the map? or just raid them and be content with dwarfs at my back in the rest of the game?

Draw bigbird being summoned into the world only to get shanked by a gobbo.

Kislev would always be a legendary tier difficult though I guess, unless you instantly relocated to somewhere elsewhere and then conquered them back later.

What would the point be for midgets that have a single piece of land and nowhere to expand to. It'd be like playing one of those meaningless principalities of HRE in EUIV, only with the lack of diplomatic and other means.

>>181641654
If there was a kislev campaign it would probably be better to just relocate chaos warriors to the other side of norsca for a bit so you don't just get run over or just deal with chaos very quickly

I should've expected as much from a fungus. What, the concept that chariots running amok amoung the enemy and trashing them hardcore somehow past the limits of your corporeal knowledge?

>>181641804
You must expand violently and meet up with the Ogres so together you can eat everyone. Do not trust the minuscule eating machines.

Something about Sillykids and Antiochus III

>>181640284
Do you draw lewds?

>>181635986
You can with faction unlockers
>Marienburg
>weird French land
It's based off the low countries, so barely even Flanders
>kislev
>fighting chaos
Most of the time is actually civil wars and ensuring the hussars and cossacks stay in line
>Border princes
Needs Lustria to truly be fun
>border dwarves
faction unlocked and you just beat the orcs then sit in your hold
>empire princes
People would complain it lacked content, will be there in the third game or try faction lockers ATM
