Skaven are not just "the wacky technology race", and they are not merely about a horde of expendable units.

No, soulless horde faction is a staple fantasy trope. Skaven go beyond that. Like the Chinese, they are a perverse mockery of man, retaining none of his virtues and expounding on his vices.

The Skaven/Chinaman lacks the courage, integrity, valor and nobility that humans can aspire to. They have an overdeveloped take on human deception, ambition, and cowardice. The squalor of Skaven/Chinese warrens is nightmarish, and they seek to prevail against their betters through treachery.

It is not for nothing that Skaven live under humanity- it is a play on the old children's belief that if you dig long enough it'll take you to China. The Yellow Peril is real in warhammer fantasy, and lies chittering under the realms of men.

I think with the Skaven, we are getting two factions which will be one standard Skaven faction and the other will be Clan Skyre.

Well, that too, of course. Liking both China and Skaven is a sign of a true patrician.

>>183380129

I'm actually really pumped for Norsca too, mostly because of the unique campaign playstyle.

But in battle Skaven will be amazing if they just faithfully copy over tabletop units, and there's the potential for some really interesting campaign mechanics.

>>183380165

Worst case scenario, they're Dwarfs with much more interesting units and battle gameplay.

Best case scenario, we get Under Empire and inter-clan fighting.

In the End Times, Nagash resurrected himself through a thousand year plan. Lord Kroak just willed himself back to life instantly when he was sick of being dead.

Kroak is actually, ironically the single strongest being in all of Warhammer. In the defense of Itza, his final sacrifice evaporated millions of deamons at the battle of Itza. Though killed in the battle, his spirit simply refused to leave his body, and even as a lifeless skele-frog he leads armies into battle thousands of years after his death.

It definitely feels different from SFO but since each sets out to change literally everything in the game it's hard to pin-point which is stronger than the other in whatever situation (campaign, battles, diplomacy, etc.)

I recommend trying if its just for a shake-up

Chaos Dwarfs, Ogres Kingdoms, and they can push Kislev as well. Chaos Daemons is your fourth faction or four separate factions, depend on how many shekels you want to make

After neglecting Chaos marks and proper flavor for the four gods for two factions they'll put that feature in and have it be hailed as something interesting and innovative that totally refreshes the Chaos factions. Warhammer 3 will be very much the "Chaos" game, with Kislev the bastion that tries to hold it at bay.

They are already proving they'll go beyond the established army books, and the reception to it has been great.

A significant percentage of players demand a human or at least human-ish faction. When a new DLC race was announced they first made it clear it wasn't Kislev because they know thats what people were calling for. Kislev is right in the area, they'd be fools not to flesh it out.

Europe and India were joined together, but you could go on Americas map only by sea and America map had a different scale compared to Europe/India

I hope that WH1/WH3 maps will be joined while downscaled WH2 map will be reachable by sea from few ports in the Old World

that way they would integrate all 3 partial maps to work together nicely

Many people do not know the map or lore so I put it out for the three games and factions.

TWW1-Takes place in the Old World
>Empire
>Dwarfs
>Orcs and Goblins
>Vampire Counts
>Warriors of Chaos
>Beastmen
>Wood Elves
>Bretonnia
>Norsca

TWW2-New World which is Ulthuan, Naggorath, Lustria and Southlands
>High Elves
>Dark Elves
>Lizardmen
>Skaven

TWW2-Possible dlc.
>Tomb Kings-In the Southlands continent, specifically in the Land of the Dead
>Araby-to the left of the Tomb Kings
>Dogs of War/Southern Realms-can be put anywhere and can fit with the first game

TWW3-Likely factions to be put in (3 major factions left)
>Chaos Daemons will be split into four becoming
>Khorne
>Tzeentch
>Nurgle
>Slaanesh

Possible dlc
>Chaos Dwarfs-In the Dark Lands
>Ogre Kingdoms-In the Mountains of Mourn
>Cathay-Maybe if we really lucky.

Look at the map picture with a red line. Everything to the left of the red line is Game 1 and Game 2. Everything right to the red line has a chance of being in Game 3.

Kislev is just above the Empire and below Norsca. I want to see Kislev in game 3 but don't know how they would do it as Kislev is already on the map in game 1.

Maybe Kislev could be one last future dlc for game 1 even after game 2 releases.

Chorfs, Ogres, maybe daemons (if they is not a dlc for tww2). Probably we will get some near border regions of Cathay, so there will be humans.
>>
>>183382652
Tomb Kings must be in game 2 meaning we only have 3 major factions left (Chaos Daemons, Ogre Kingdoms and Chaos Dwarfs). Don't forget the Russian leak that showed 4 Chaos God factions.

Using Khorne as an example, it could have Khorne Daemons, Khorne Chaos Warriors and Khorne Beastmen added together.

The Russian leak states that they will. It's also that every game has 4 factions start so if we did not split the Daemons, we would get.

>Daemons of Chaos
>Chaos Dwarfs
>Ogre Kingdoms

>Cathay? We have all 16 major factions at this point so a minor faction would have to be used.

Plans do change though as the Russian leak was at the start of development. Even then, they wanted all 16 factions in the game. The game's continuing success could have allowed even more to be added.
>>
>>183382671
You gotta think about the subfactions mind you. It's one thing being able to play greenskins, but playing as Wurzag's specific faction is awesome, more of these sorts of things will be needed.

A minor faction is a major change and is a new watershed moment for the series. If Norsca can get in, Araby and Dogs of War have a major chance in game 2 as well. As I was saying, the game's success has allowed this.

>>183384765
>>183384883
In the Old World, it's too small for it to be faction or even useful on the map (Fimir are from there though). However, I have an idea that could make some use out it.

There was a Shadows Over Albion/ Dark Shadows campaign that had Albion as the battleground and had special units involved such as Truthsayers, Dark Emissarys, and Fenbeasts. This campaign I think involved most factions in the game (Orcs and Goblins, Vampire Counts, Dark Elves, Empire and Lizardmen being examples) so would be as a campaign pack if CA was willing to make it (campaigns are now separate so Albion could be a good testbed).
>>
>>183384936
Why would anyone want tiny shitty armies running around
>>
>>183385538
They potentially could, but I think it'd be more fitting to have it as a place related to the vortex. They could have a lot of events with dark emissaries, truthsayers, and giants, but there really isn't enough meat to make an interesting faction on its own.

To be honest..? maybe.
I mean, it'd be Fimir and Wild priests and bog creatures and giants along with tribesmen akin to the norscans.. but maybe.

It might just be too much effort for too little pay off, but i wouldn't hate just one random settlement there just called "Albion."

To be fair anyone could be living there. Brets, Emperials, Greenskins, Delves and Lizardmen all have residence in Albion.

Albion doesn't have especially high amounts of Fimir, the fluff is that Old Ones settled it and brought humans in, then they taught them druidic skills and when Chaos invaded the world created giants to protect them.

Albion's fluff is newer than real old stuff like the Fimir etc. but still old enough to be probably retconned because in modern Warhammer Giants are degenerate descendants of the Sky-Titans from the Mountains of Mourn, not Old One creations from Albion.

That's basically all it takes. Steam reviews for Total War games are pretty much useless and don't reflect the overall quality of the games. Just look at the new Hitman for example. The people who really played it say it is one of the best stealth games available, yet the reviews make it seem like a shit game because muhhhhhh episodic release.

Truth is, a portion of gamers are only in it for the outrage and will hate on a game just because they think it deserved it, and gaming "journalism" and gaming "critics" only feed into this sentiment with their shitty clickbait reviews and opinion pieces.

Build a T1 stable and T2 barracks on the first turn. 4 units of skulkers and 2-4 cav, a couple of archers then the rest spears. Night goblins are only good for the poison debuff which you get for your whole army quite early anyway.

In battle you want to use the stealth on your skulkers to get them into positions on the flanks where they can hit one or two units at the same time as your cavalry. None of your guys will win a grind out fight early so you have to crush their morale fast.

Skarsnik should be fighting in the main line but away from the enemy lord to help with leadership. Cavalry charges into the back of the blob that forms around your spider can trigger terror routs.

That's always the case in the strategy/sim genre. It's a niche genre where devs are rarely able to release AAA quality games for only 60 bucks. Thus the many DLC.at this point strategy games and 60+ € worth of DLC go hand in hand.

There is, and plenty of legendary lord options to draw upon. Some are better than others.

It'd be neat to see Drycha somewhere far from Athel Loren up to no good- the backwoods of Naggaroth or hiding in Laurelorn. Daith could work if we wanted another useless lore of metal caster, and Araloth if you want a boring generic loser nobody likes but GW pushed oddly hard

Ariel would be cool, Sisters of Twilight would be great, and Naieth would be the patrician choice.

I'd like to see Amazons added to the game, either as a minor nation or collection of minor nations in Lustria, or as units for the Lizardmen.

Also for very beginning of the campaign I recruit one round of goblin spears then jump over the mountains and start fucking with the empire secessionists immediately.

Getting a couple of levels on Skarsnik helps enormously and your spider can carry your first fights easy as long as you aren't taking on full stacks.

You also start with lightning strike, I was able to kill a half stack outside Helmgart then a half stack sitting inside the town on turn 3 using it.

Recruit a second lord and keep pumping out goblins while Skarsnik is doing that because the dwarfs nearby will be at your town with a full stack by turn 6 or 7.

Not really. This is even worse than other games of the the strategy/sim genre.

Cities Skylines sold 3.5 million, Civ 6 also sold more. And these games still have their expensive DLC.

Witcher 3 sold around 15 Million

Great Weapons

-Better against armored units

-Lack of shields means archers will have a field day against great weapon units

>>183395989

Grim&Grave and King&Warlord are Lord Packs, they add content to the Base game factions.

King&Warlord is pretty widely considered to be one of, if not The best DLC since the Lords it adds have their own sub factions with special gimmicks that set them pretty solidly apart from the factions they derive from.

Get them if you like the base factions.

The value of Beastmen and Wood Elves will depend on whether they really interest you.

Chaos have a fun roster but their campaign is so bad I honestly wouldn't recommend them.
>>
>>183396524
Chaos campaign is shit. But their units is fun, so buy it if you want to play single or multiplayer battles. G&G is not so good as K&W, but worth the price if you want to play as Vampires or Empire.

Get a goblin hero on a wolf.

your routing units aren't a problem as long as they don't shatter, they're usually fast enough to slip away from enemy infantry and if you can get a hero to round them up back into the fight they can get another charge bonus hitting from an odd angle, or you can reform your lines.

either way don't lose your spider, since its how you'll win sieges too and is vital for the first 30 or so turns.

>>
>>183397070
Look at their stats.

From the top of my head:
GW have no shields
Less defence
Less attack (?)
Better charge
MAYBE less damage total, but most of it is AP, so they'll probably do slightly more damage against even medium armoured units

Some of the units have slower attack speed (halberds definitely) so they'll be drastically less effective offensively

Hover your mouse over the weapon damage to see if there is bonus dmg vs. armour/infantry/large, the bonuses vs a certain unit are also added to the attack of a unit.

If GW gives CA free reign or at least helps them invent some stuff, because im sure that they have concepts for cathay, nippon and ind somewhere they can make it amazing.

Araby can get catapbracts, also maybe a sandworm type thing.

Cathay just needs to delve into chinese mythology and chinese 3 kingdoms/manchu tier armies and it would and it would be fucking great.

Honestly if games workshop plays this rigjt they could add a chinese faction into that shitshow Age of Sigmar if total war makes it popular enough.

Guys, trying Chaos for the first time. Just started raiding some viking villages in the north (they fall like flies to the infinite might of the Everchosen), but what should I do when I beat them?

Thus far I just sack, and on the next turn awaken, but is that not a good idea?

Should I leave them un-awakened for future sacking?

Who's it going to trigger? Pigmies will never happen, Lizardcucks literally don't have dicks or emotions, so your pic is nothing but irrelevant fanart, and Fimir, and this is assuming CA doesn't retcon their canon, seem to viewed more as vaguely amusing than triggering by the fans, at least from what I've read. We should be more concerned with people bitching about Morathi and Witch Elves and CA covering them, frankly.

I usually just ignore them after the first few sackings. I do the Bearsonling camp and then just head for Kislev, you don't want to just fight Norscans all day, you'll end up despising Chaos beyond all reckoning. If you're trying to get Sigvald do the four required, otherwise march on the provinces of men and let the Norscans fight among themselves until one is standing tall over all and make nice with him. All this may change with Norsca's release and make them far more interesting to fight and ally with, but this is how I play Chaos until then.

Still, the AI is smart enough to abuse LOS with walls and dance around corners to avoid fire and take advantage of choke points and I guess that's kinda' all you can ask for. Even with the custom maps.

If there were a total war based on a fantasy series it may as well be Malazan. For how plodding the pacing could be at times, the world building focused heavily on factions and army composition, military tradition, etc. Also, there is a lot of variety which is what makes Total Warhammer compelling. TW GOT would be painfully boring.

For TW fantasy you need good variety between factions, a sizable world, and a strong military focus in the world building. That's not something GOT really offers.

China Total War is a trap. The easy choice, the choice everyone wants them to make, is for the Three Kingdoms period. But they're going to have to contend with the Superman-grade shit they're recorded as doing. China's historical record is NOT Tacitus. They love to embellish their history, and CA is either going to have to play that down and piss off half of the people who want it or play it up and piss off the other half of the people who want it. There's not much middle ground to be had.

They are single handedly preserving Warhammer Fantasy after GW fucked it up so they get a pass. Even if they are nickel and diming people with DLC it's still cheaper than miniatures and ultimately it means a more comprehensive experience for all.

I'll regret this but what the fuck is munging?

Just picked up this game.
Rolled the von carstein and im getting my shit pushed in. Vampire race is fucking weird man im winning battles but they are often pyrrhic.

Should i just start with an easier race? i feel like the unit composition and the whole morale situation is pretty fucky/not what im used to.

Vampire Cunts are not the best race to start off with I'd argue.

Go for Mannlets or Empire instead.

>>183407740
>pyrrhic

That's the point. You are the spammy faction. Corruption slows your advance but your units are expendable until you start recruiting grave guards and stuff like that. Even then if you get battle markers you can raise them from the dead so it's really not an issue once you get rolling. Was my first playthrough and found it easy.
>>
>>183407740
Phyricc victories as vampires are nothing worrying, you get your shit back very easily.
VC are also the easiest faction in the game.
>>
>>183407740
you're not using your spells enough, use raise dead to harrass the enemy flanks, and invohkation of nehek to heal your actual troops
>>
>>183407740
>but they are often pyrrhic
Huge deaths on both sides are highly beneficial for Vampires. That said, I'd recommend starting with Vampire Counts over Von Carstein for your first but if you're already a certain amount in you could just keep going.

Thanks for the replies.

I should add im going agaisnt the Counts straight away (ive killed manfred) but their one castle has 6 grave guards and other such nonsense and my i only have my pissy little tier 2 town so havent got any units beside some extra ones from raising undead.

Is there another tactic to Vamp Vs Vamp, i havent experienced a battle with another race so i havent benefited from the fear styat
>>
>>183408576
Vamp vs Vamp is perhaps the most boring battle imaginable in this game.
>>
>>183407740
Pyrrhic Victories are great. More corpses.
>>
>>183408576

When fighting vampires as... well as anything, is about one thing: battlefield-assassinations.

All power comes from the Vampire's leader. Kill him and the fight is over.

Throw every inch of your being against him and when he dies so will all his troops.

>>183408664
Nah, that has to be Dorf vs Dorf. Luckily, those fights don't exist.

If a castle isn't occupied by a lord then one of the higher tier units garrisoning it will be assigned as leader, fuck that unit up hard and it should start snowballing the others into crumbling once it's dead.

That describes all the minor factions to be honest.

>>
>>183414450
When you boil it down, Throgg is just another warlord with strong Chaos taint, so it's not unusual for Norscans to pledge themselves to him so long as he's actually getting shit done.

If I recall correctly, Throgg's whole deal is conquering everything with an army of "madmen and monsters".
>>
>>183414450
Throgg is mostly monsters as he did this before and during the End Times.

Some humans would be crazy enough to do it. Throgg could see as proof that monsters are superior to humans or something.
>>
>>183414450
'cause he's strong, same reason Chaos hangs out with Kholek

Just ally with the winner of the badlandsbowl and go swimming in amber. Or conquer Norsca.
