Total War is grand strategy just like Europa Universalis, but turn based. Factions and cities are already placed and you take control over one faction. Not like in civ or other 4x where everything is randomly generated.
It also have battles in rts style, which are main focus of the series. Everything else is just excuse to put you into battles and give them some sort of meaning.
In no way it is similar to M&B, though people who play Total War seems to like M&B too and vice versa

But we don't know yet. They said it's supposed to be before WH2, so if it's just by having it in your library then it should. If it's specific retailers it's pot luck.

Focus on the greenskins first, then consider your plans for taking the other dwarfs, as it is though I don't think there's much in the way of penalties outside of the usual diplomatic ones for going to war with your own race.

Ok.
I went south first since I noticed I couldn't secure the whole northern province without that other clan taking the west settlement.
And the greenskin threat is almost dead here. Maybe that's why they won't confederate.
Problem is, I just played Bretonnia so I've been getting all the agreements I can so it'll take another 10 turns to break them and 10 more to attack. All while I'm boxed in doing nothing.

Just throw a stack of knights errant, lose, and mop up with Louen.
You should have enough cash to afford 3 full stacks of cav armies AND Louen's super army.

Or if you use knights of the realm, don't forget about lance formation. It wrecks shop. They also get frightened by either Pegasus or hippogryph knights so they actually break sometimes.

Although actually, now that I look at it, I don't think this is actually a daughter you start the campaign with - I think the rulers of the Duchy of Bavaria had all of their eligible heirs die/be too young so the game spawned a regent after my actual daughter (who was married to the ruler of the faction) died, and attributed her to my family for whatever reason

Total War noob question. When doing cavalry i know you dont just run them into an army and forget about em. But what im not sure about is when doing charges do you have them hit the unit then turn back right away? Or do you run them in let them scrap for 10-15 seconds or whatever then run back?

Cavalry is fun as hell to manage and crash into units. But i want to make sure im doing it properly.

If it changes anything i currently only have Warhammer. But ive had fun with the format so ill probably pick up other ones soon enough.

it would be like worshipping george washington if george washington was able to cross the delaware and use a bigass magical french sword to lop king george's head off (king george of course being a 10 ft tall green fungal creature obsessed with smashing tiny colonials). Then years and years later a few people obsessed with the founding fathers read about all the metal shit he did and start a cult around him, which grows into a religion once people realize that you get sweet ass magical powers when you ask for Washington's Blessing.

Not really. Sigmar ascended and became a deity of Man like Ulric and the other Human gods. Belief and prayers to Him can do some nasty shit, see also Arch Lector/Warrior Priest. The Dwarf pantheon would remember Sigmar showing up and joining the Human crew way back when.

>It'd be like if we worshiped George Washington. Sure the man was the birth of a nation and church is fine for the community and all but literally expecting to have George cross you over the Delaware into heaven after you die is silly.
Literally full stop what the fuck. The US was created in 1776, 241 years ago; the Empire (which was only a collection of loose tribal clans upon creation and is still a collection of loose tribal states in the present) was brought together by Sigmar in 0 IC, with the game starting at 2502 IC at Franz's ascension. Not nearly enough time has past to deify ol' Oakteeth, but if the States endure that long it WILL happen. Given time (and maybe some prodding) you could seriously get a cult of personality going that believes in exactly what you said. We humans can be batshit stupid like that.

btw george is the six-star rotting corpse man-emperor-general of our glorious nation's armies and no one can ever rise above him in rank he lives forever in our hearts i would swim across the Delaware for Him

Playing Lombards in AoC, here is the current situation

I was able to time up the excommunication from telling the pope to shove his request for ravenna up his ass with my conquering of them, meaning that I was able to quickly subjugate them and kill off my king, only enduring a couple of turns w/ the excommunication penalties.

The Duchies of Beneventum/Spoleto have been destroyed, but I now have the Papal States/the Duchy of Croatia as puppet states in their place (just paid Croatia to be a puppet state after noticing they had the greedy trait)

The Carolingian Cunt is still sending the occasional stack across the alps, and now I have to worry about Provence as well. Thankfully they are too scared of my fleet to try sending any naval forces south into Italy. With the tribute money coming in from Croatia I'm going to build a new army and probably use it to push into provence or into the Theme of Sicily.

But actually other than the mongolic/tibetan music, Attila is fucking bland as fuck was was Rome 2.

Warhammer has some few good tunes, specially the main one, but honestly Jeff van Dyck music was so much fucking better, Rome 1 and Medieval 2 had a fucking amazing ost, and Shogun 2 is really good as well, half the songs recycled from Shogun 1.

>>
>>181905401
Honestly, Warhammer.

It's not like it's bad, but it doesn't compare to the other games. I guess it just doesn't really have as much character as the rest of the game has, when Warhammer is *the* game where character matters the most because of all the variety and fantasy. Like how each race could have really unique and distinctive, entire soundtracks to them, but instead for the most part it's just a general shared sort of dark fantasy soundtrack for the whole game. I haven't checked for sure, but I think each faction maybe only has like 3 unique songs each. Also overall, there's not much variety to the soundtrack.

It's a shame, because it's clear that CA hiring a really accomplished, professional music director like Van Dyck or Kyd, would so greatly improve Warhammer overall. As it stands, it's just kind of passable but overall forgettable, and unfortunately Warhammer as good as it could get, will never be a 10/10 for me as long as it doesn't have as amazing a soundtrack as some of the other entries into the franchise.

It's a savegame modification, really easy to do and seems compatible with every mod out there, army battles will be still only 40 units but I like the change since the AI seems to have problems with multi stack attacks while the player can exploit it a lot

My rome campaign from last thread continues.
Though the swift capture of Lilybaeum and Sardinia was initially well received by the senate it soon became clear that holding their new land will be a challenge. Constant rebellions prevented the Romans from leaving the towns. Even worse the Carthaginian armies mobilized swiftly. Supported by their navy they sailed to Lilybauem convinced they will overwhelm the defenders and retake the town for Carthage.

As the town was recently captured it was without any form of garrison and so The roman army could do nothing but watch the enemy ships sail towards them.
I did find it funny how Karl Franz voice actor is used by roman soldiers. Hearing Karl Franz shout out "Jupiter give us strength!" is funny. My general also gave a speech in the game which was a speech from the original rome.

So does morale (or leadership) do anything for your soldiers other than not having them break? Like do they fight better?
Or for example do they fight worse when wavering or do they fight exactly as the best they can right until the moment they break?

M2. He cut a swathe through Europe all they way to the far norht-eastern settlement. I had him release captives to get his chivalry up so when he sat in the little motte & bailey, he made it a citadel before the mongols came.
It wasn't his time yet because they headed to Alexandria (balista towers, professional soldiers waiting, max dread general), but when the Timurids came the next general was ready to kill them before they could get 10 feet into Europe.

The ships landed, and their crew were instantly met by a hail of javelins. Those that survived were easily slain by the hastati. This part of the navy was easily dealt with but the bulk of it was about to land on the other side of the town. The Romans marched as fast as they could.

However these were no weak Carthaginians but barbaric Gallic "noble" mercenaries, they were much deadlier then the hastati. Many brave romans fell to their swords. But what they had in strength they lacked in size. The barbarians were outnumbered and allowed a unit of romans to march through a gap and into their flanks.

With the mercenaries death the battle was practically over. (well not in actuality, I spent 2 minutes chasing a unit of slingers).

It did not take much for the city to fall. The small garrison was overwhelmed by the larger and more skilled Romans. Lucius oversaw the executions of most Carthaginian politicians. The roman soldiers were given 4 days to do what they wish upon the populace. The men of the city killed in the streets like dogs, the women raped and left for dead, the children enslaved. The cruel barbarity of the legion was even encouraged by Lucius as a way to 'avenge" the many Romans who had died at Lilybaeum.
All the while dolphins swam happily outside the harbor. Unaware of the slaughter taking place. Unaware that Carthage would never be the same again.

The Carthaginians were rightfully afraid. Reduced to their holdings in Hispania and the Balearics, the senate saw fit to make peace. For rebellions were threatening Italia itself, and any further expansion would no doubt result in more unrest.

They need to work on the walls first.
Units running through the wrong breach.
Teleporting up and down is stupid.
archers won't fire at units on the wall if they're also on the wall.
Units still have a hard time running to meet the assaulting units.

Like, God damn. How is it so difficult? What's so different about coding the walls? Maybe they need a guy to work on invisible wall collisions or something.

The same way the Chaos invasion effects the orcs. The orcs have those bjornling fleets appear off their coasts. And if the chaos invasion destroys the dark elves (because remember naggaroth is connected to the chaos wastes) then chaos will push past them into northern lustria. And Mazdumandi's city is the northernmost Lizardmen city.
Archeaon will probably stay near the empire but other chaos stacks can still go to Lustria.

But really, the main problem is how grimderp the setting is. Most of the factions are just not fun.

But see, Japan is on another level from the rest of Asian history. Samurais and ninjas actually enjoy mainstream success and there is plenty of honorabu weebs lurking around. West exposed pretty extensively to the Japanese culture so the setting is good. Not to mention Total War begun from that era.

I'm not opposed to the China title in future, but not before modern (in terms of the engine) Medieval-Victoria game. Hey, you can even fit China to the Saga series, because it kinda would be like Shogun in terms of unit diversity, save for Mongols obviously.

Europe wasn't able to produce porcelain until the Meissen factory managed in 1710, and Europe didn't have cast iron bridges until the 19th century.

the 3rd century is an interesting period to point out, as it's often referred to as the 'crisis in the third century'.

Your point is totally moot though, China was no less stable than Rome, and the country remained very stable from the 15th to early 20th century.

The borders in Europe were constantly shifting, especially in relation to the Balkans, The borders between France and German states, even Britain was changing borders with the act of union. If you are going to assume there was more stability in a Europe of small states constantly at war compared to a cohesive country the size of China then at least address the inconsistencies. If you consider Europe's colonies as well then it only gets worse, borders changed on a daily basis in the Americas, Carribbean, indo-china and the pacific.

You're wrong on both fronts, first of all, the balkans were under ottoman rule for 6 centuries, so I don't get where you go off on saying the borders were shifting there, then the states that were already formed were basically unchanged for hundreds of years, especially france, germany and italy was another matter, since they were not formed at this time.

Did you enjoy Shogun 2? I'm sure the map would probably encompass Korea and Mongolia anyway but Shogun 2 is regarded as one of the best titles and is way less diverse than any period of China in terms of warfare. Early warfare in Japan was just ritualised horse archery contests, in iron age China they had some of the most powerful crossbows ever made with intricate bronze triggers, armoured chariots, every kind of torsion artillery and heavy cavalry. Any iron age European army would have been a total joke by comparison with slings, bronze shields and poor steel.

Funny enough atheists always point out the old testament, which isn't what christians believe in, since christ brought the new testament

Yeah modern day morals are a mix of everything, and that mix happened because the Roman state and people like st.paul were concerned with intergrating christianity with existing religions and values, and it worked, then they added the concept of charity, piety, love the other like you would yourself etc. which aren't necessarily followed by everyone, but are THERE, in the back of everyone's mind.

When you think about doing something bad, you don't immediately think about the consequence because of the law, you think that it would be something bad to do, that is because western values are based on christian ones, and because they have spread all over the world, since everyone started imitating westeners in their style of life, dress codes etc.

You conciously or subconciously imitate something that is extremely succesful, of course imitations can never be perfect and there's always a residue of the previous culture permeating the new one.

The Koreans in general seemed to have accepted their place in the world at the time. They're sometimes described as being the Irish of the Far East for getting screwed by all the surrounding powers.

That's bullshit though.

Even if we were only talking about genetic ancestry. Those are just the three highest white immigration to the US groups in "recent" history, discounting British origins entirely.

Besides which US cultural and political identity is directly influenced by its British origins, evolved over the last couple of hundred years with various immigration and wars. You've got things like the Magna Carta influencing your Constitution.

To be fair, the Magna Carta is a giant meme as evidenced by how differently (and sometimes contradictorily) the Americans and British use it.
http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2015/04/20/the-rule-of-history

Secondly, America's legal heritage is a massive clusterfuck. The British Bill of Rights and Magna Carta influenced it significantly, but so did the ideas of Rousseau, the foundations of the Dutch Republic, knowledge of the Roman Republic and especially the ideas of Montesquieu*, to the point where the US Constitution can pretty much be described as a copypaste of his ideas. British influence was there, no doubt, but America was from the very start (at least legally) very much its own thing.

*And before you claim that Montesquieu was describing the British system, the Founding Fathers themselves put this myth to rest in the Federalist Papers. The Separation of powers in the UK was far from how Montesquieu described it: the king could appoint and dismiss judges at will and had the exclusive right of initiative, which only made parliament a stamp machine rather than a true legislative power (which is still the case in the UK, with the only difference being that the PM now has a democratic mandate. That's why the UK is sometimes described as an elective dictatorship [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elective_dictatorship]).

Doesn't always work out well for me I use one of the cav units that I use to strike random targets of opportunity. If I see someone going for them, I'll intercept.
>Should I ever recruit Demigryphs with Lances
I just stick with halberds, but I never recruit more than two to begin with. More experienced chicken riders can probably tell you more.
>Does the Griffon for Empire lords function the same way as Deathclaw does for Karl Franz?
Not sure what you mean, but if you're talking about their capability as a fighter, yes. They're not as powerful as a LL of course.

I always use 2 in my army light to cast the net (great for minators or a cav charge) and the green one lore of life i think, has great heals for your men, get them on flying mounts to keem em safe.

Protecting arty depends on the fight you should be fine as long as you kill all their doggos/cav with your cav, flying units are harder to deal with tho.

Always use the halberd ones no question.

Yeah but not as strong.

am I the only one that find that the "chaos" invasion gimick makes it boring?

I mean all the games end with me controlling a lot of land and fielding huge armies and everyone else getting destroyed by chaos because they are simply too small to defend themselves. It would be way more interesting if the game would encourage some factions to grow big as well, thus providing for an end game where 2 or 3 large factions are fighting each other (plus chaos).

>>181928820
so far I played dwarfs, orcs and empire

in my dwarf and orc game never saw the vampires "overtake" the empire before chaos was unstopabble. The game ended being me in my corner sending armies to fight chaos while everyone else was crumbling.

In my empire game I think dwarf was strong, but since they were never my enemies it didnt really matter. It would have been more interesting if late game dwarfs had antagosnitic objectives to the empire thus forcing them to confront each other

yeah but bronze is much softer than iron so using bronze for shields doesn't make much sense when you have iron weapons. you are better with wood reinforced with iron.
also wire is made of copper beacuse it utilises it's conductivity - using its strong point. that analogy is really stupid.
>>
>>181927289
A lot of the main thinkers and idealists from the revolution committed suicide shortly after. The tyranny of Napoleon was one reason since out of their supposed triumph of the rights of man a tyrant arose, but also because they realised a constitution is always a contradiciton of rights and that money was a new tyranny. God knows what they'd make of the US today, if it even surprised them.

>>181930782
forged beaten bronze is pretty much equal to Iron in terms of it's hardness and it is much more ductile and easier to repair. Iron's qualities only really shine when you alloy it with carbon to make steel and start manipulating the structure using tempering. Also bronze was easier to mold and you could make a lot more of it with less input than iron, so bulky objects like shields, helmets and chestpieces continued to be made from bronze until mid aintiquity when steel mail took over and shields were entirely laminated.

>Should I ever recruit Demigryphs with Lances, or always stick to the ones with Halberds?
Not unless you really want to.
If you need a cav to mop up infantry, just go for Reiksguard; more models means they're better at killing lots of fodder.

How should I protect artillery? By having one unit of Halberdiers standing right next to them at all times, or just move them closer to the mainline infantry?
If you're facing a lot of fast cav, flyers or vamps capable of summoning, have a halberd or two on standby. Otherwise you'll be fine with keeping your line nearby.

>How do I use wizards as Empire?
As others have said, Light and Life work best.
Shadow can be useful for dealing magic damage against vamps and Welves.

>>181926939
>Does the Griffon for Empire lords function the same way as Deathclaw does for Karl Franz?
Similar, but not quite as good.
If you team him up with a capatin on pegasus he can wreck most enemy lords though.
Honestly, he works best when rearcharging/terrorbombuíng engaged enemies or polishing off skirmishers.
>>
>>181930782
Iron's only superior factor for the longest time was being dirt cheap, since it was more or less available everywhere; bronze production often involved long and expansive trade chains.

You need to actually turn iron into steel and harden/heat treat it to make it better than bronze, which took people a good while to figure out.

Yeah once you get a heavily armoured front line DEI becomes a joke.

I've been doing some digging through the pack file manager and found some interesting things.

Macedon has short and long pikes, long are standard pikes while short have the armour piercing and shield piercing tags.

In practice though the extra range on long pikes is far more effective, even against the heaviest infantry around.

Dacia has an emphasis on missiles, falxes and cheap units.

Low armour and no shields means if you send the falxes in first they won't be coming back out.

Generally you would send in a wave of chaff spear or swords while your cavalry or missiles take out the back line. When your first line begins to break, or their missiles are dead, send in a second wave of falxes/harder swords/axes.

It is basically shock and awe faction. Your aim is to rout enemy as quick as possible because you have nothing to withstand prolonged combat.
That means bait and divide with skirmishers and cav, than engaging with mediocre spears, than raping enemy's back with flaxes and shock cav.
Beating strong, armoured, high morale enemy like Rome feels great.

I'm confused. Does TW Saga™ mean that we won't get full scale historical TW but rather small campaigns like Charlemagne for full price?
So for example there will never be Med 3, instead we get 4 different mini campaigns each spanning 50 years or so?
Am I just paranoid?
>>
>>181948135
It just means a smaller scale of scope. A singular time of war instead of say, Rome spreading across the land to obtain clay. It also doesn't mean there will never again by a mainline history title again, anyone who thinks so needs to turn in his tinfoil hat.

I found that to be the case playing the Getae in Europa Barbarorum. It was always a case of making the enemy charge you by skirmishing them to hell and back, then cutting them down when they're tired with incredibly vicious falxmen. If you can wear them out then those shock troops can do the damage they need to do without suffering too much in return.

what does this mean in rome 2, is it as long as I have greek culture I can recruit these units, or only in this province I can recruit these units. Also is it worth killing Syracuse early on if I want to conquer Africa or should I keep them as client state to get greek hoplites

>>181951146
Get rid of Syracuse. They spread greek culture that causes unrest in your latin provincies.

>>181951146
>>181951554
Get rid of Syracuse, you have other options for decent and better hoplites. The main reason to keep client states is if you have armies on the border who can't get decent troops otherwise.

Also those are region specific troops. DeI has an area of recruitment system like Europa Barbarorum.

I captured Gineard in first turn and in this one i will take Bregnas, then i will probably siege this Derwath if Gondor won't be faster. After this i will prepare myself for inevitable war with Rohan. I don't want to expand to the east like i usually do with Isengard, though. I want to finally raze Hobbiton. I will probably expand to Edoras, sent my forces to the west and leave the rest of ruined Rohan for the Mordor.

You always want to have your culture high. You can still recruit local units so you don't miss out on anything.

>>181952103
Sicily has Cretan archers and Thelessian cavalry which are both great. I suspect you'll get a scripted event if you take Syracuse where Rome will war dec you.

You should pick up some Scutarii and Baleric slingers from Iberia as well.

Okay, I'm back with one more question.

Untainted:
Characters - 6
Buildings and commandments - 12
Osmosis - 2
Local populance - 4

Vampiric Corruption
Osmosis - 2

Vampiric corruption 6.3%
TRENDING TOWARDS 7.7%

HOW THE FUCK?

>>181926137
>Funny enough atheists always point out the old testament, which isn't what christians believe in, since christ brought the new testament

>>
>>181955468
>>181955528
No, it will just tend to 8.33%
>>
>>181955528
>vampiric corruption increase will slow down considerably
As soon as it ruins your public order. :^)
>>
>>181955295
It's not a direct + and - relationship with corruption, it's a % of total
>>
>>181955468
....What?

>>181955528
But my anti-corruption stuff is much higher than their corruption. Why isn't it going down to 0?
>>
>>181955295
First we add all the corruption modifiers together:

6 + 12 + 2 +4 + 2 = 26

Next, we find out what percentage 2 out of 26 is

2 * 100 / 26 = 7.7 %

And that is what we call mathematics.

This is also the reason you can never completely remove corruption from any province as long as there is a source that affects it.

Playing Attila TW for the first time. 70 turns into the game and I've now noticed that the Picts are controlling the North-Western Turkey, so all the lands immiediately below Constantinopole (which is controlled by Roman Separatists itself but that's not that out there).

it's common for developers to recycle as much assets as they can get away with, especially for shit games like shithammer

You can use raid stance.

Also use git gud

But you don't. Attrition doens't affect garrisoned toops. Raiding stance also ignores it. But then again this probably bait.

Attila recycled even more though. Does that mean the game is bad?

I remember coming to this general months back when i picked up warhammer on the humble bundle and commenting about it being a nice place but ever since the TWW2 update (and even slightly before that) you history fans have just been non stop shitposting.

I'm not saying all of you are responsible but you're not doing your fandom any favours.

Attila wasn't sold at full AAA price and still managed to innovate more than warhammer ever did.

It's just that one guy mostly. He just does it for attention, and overal never posts anything of value. In short - the type of anti-social person who ruins generals on /vg/. Luckily there's just one of him.
>>
>>181974974

I sure hope so, it'd ne a real shame to see this general go the same way as so many others.

Wish Attila's battles were more interesting, but most of that comes from the setting(which is subjective). I still think they didn't utilize the setting well enough though. I mean they should have replaced some of the barbar clone starting factions with the moors or something at release. You spend too much time fighting samey armies(not to mention spearmen spam). Just my take on it anyway. Ancient Empires is going to be nice.

>tfw got Warhammer for 35 dollars on release

Shame that's mainly a garrison fleet that died and my army is too far away to make use of this victory.
Is it a DeI thing thatif you fight a blockading fleet you all get transport boats, he din't even embark he just fought whilst a man on the campaign map?

Everything has it's ups and downs. We've had way worse, and this particular episode is relatively recent so unlikely to last forever. The whole harmony thing isn't a joke, we're all pretty harmonious as a rule. Kind of have to, there's quite a few TW games so lot of people with different favourites playing nicely together.
