I don't want fucking Krell, he is shit and probably sucks skeleton dicks

>technical difficulties

what the fuck is going on? will they finish the fucking DLC in the last 20 days until its release?

So since it was revealed that Krell was added to the SteamDB, do you think it's part of the old friend/FLC, or do you think it'll be its own thing with its own announcement?

>Another boon is the vagueness in which we have set Total War: WARHAMMER. It is early in the Age of Franz, a good while before the End Times. Effectively, we have stuck a pin in the timeline at a nebulous point soon after the Emperor’s election. From there on we move into a nondescript ‘comic book’ style time where anything is now possible.

>As the game increases in scope and its roster of Legendary Lords grow, you will no doubt see a few of these ‘anomalies’ where a character’s appearance doesn’t quite match up to what is written in the novels or other sources set in the same period.

Which has literally nothing to do with anon claiming CA isn't attempting to stick to a vague time period in the Warhammer universe.

>>183193273
Gelt's magic is actually a huge boon to the early game Empire. You won't have Wizards for a long fucking time, save for Random fucko you get from first Quest battle. Plague of Rust and Gehenna's Golden Hounds wreck enemies. And Mortar is really fucking good, considering you won't have one for awhile. Makes uniting Reikland a much easier task. And his faction-wide armour bonus is much better than whatever weak shit Franz gets.

does anyone else feel like the color-palette for TWWH could use some updating?

Every color looks muted and bland. Not saying everyone should be wearing neon-colors, but looking at the colors from painted models, and then looking at the colors used in the in-game equivalent is like night and day.

I get it, its "grimdark", but that doesn't mean everything should look so drab and lifeless

Chaos Lord who if I recall was originally killed by Sigmar, who's been puppetted around by various necromancers since. Heinrich Kemmler's enforcer in the current age.

Truly we are in a renaissance

>>183194190
Champion of Khorne who got BTFO'd by Sigmar and buddies and unceremoniously buried in a hidden tomb for centuries

Kemmler, who went mad after some Necromancers bullied him for being a nerd, wandered the world as an amnesiac hobo, until he stumbled upon Krell's tomb

There, he made a pact with the Chaos Gods, he'd get his memory and powers back, but he'd have to spread Chaos, he got a rad sword too and a friend in Krell

>>183194696
Because it's made for children.

>>183194469

Can't say I feel like that, no.

>>183194651

And until we have an actual example of a mortal character being inserted by CA well outside their era or relevance (let alone one whose only claim to survival is in itself conjecture from goblins who weren't there) what you're trying to tell me is pointless conjecture.

I mean sure the wood elfs look alright, but look at the dead beastman;

It looks like someone took a model that had a decent variance in color, then dumped a wash of brown all over it. I get it, they're wild beastmen, dirty is their thing, but they look visually boring, nothing on a beastman really POPS out at you like the white/amber on the elfs

Kemmlers best friend.

What uses are there for the Empire ranged cavalry units?

Is it worth building Growth buildings, or should I go with other things I need right away?
What Heroes are worth to have in your Empire armies?

I feel Beastmen are a bad example, but I think I see what you are getting at.
Muted colours work for most factions, IMO, but stuff like Empire and Brettonia could probably use some saturation.

In most cases simply adjusting the faction colours should do the trick (it's what I did for my Marienburgers).In some cases you might need to brighten up the part of the texture that the mask (=faction colouring) is applied over.

WE GOT FUCKED GUYS

the game itself is literally in Early Access beta state and should be released as Early Access - half of the factions and 2/3 of the map are not yet released

yet CA is already milking us with DLC - first Beastmen and Wood Cunts, then Norsca and now 69,99$ DLC adding 4 new factions with even more DLC like Araby/Tomb Cucks to be added later

full game in finished state will be released in 2019 and will cost 700$

literally Paradox/EA tier of milking the title

It's objectively true, only reason you take casters in multiplayer is because they're cheap as shit. Even if you spam buff spells you don't get as much value as a high tier unit. Magic is garbage.

that is fucking dumb, the winds of magic are present in any battle whether or not you bring a caster, so by not doing so the opportunity cost by not tapping into that potential power is more than any other one unit, unless you only have access to a shit lore of magic

>>183199953
Alberic is no.1 if you betray Lou and start the republic of Bourdeloux, you get insane as fuck buffs from the traits.

Mannlet is second cos of his OP sword and having 2 best lores.

You faggots are getting so worked up about this when you could just go test it and see I'm right. Casters are cheap in multiplayer, which is the only reason they're taken. A unit of black orcs will always do more than any hero level caster would.

Put simply, if a hero caster costed the same as a unit of black orcs in multiplayer no one would ever take them.
