holy fuck this is going to take a loooong time to get used to, what's a good faction to start with?

>>187902313
best beginner factions are the small settled barbars, like the franks or the saxons

any mechanics in particular hammering your anvil?

>>187902313

>>187902396
alot of the campaign mechanics mainly, alot of it seems like busywork, I will probably pick up most of it as I play, but I have absolutely no idea how to start out, battles are straightforward enough.

Best beginner faction is Western Roman Empire. You might as well start on very hard difficulty, because its a breeze otherwise. You're surrounded by friendly factions, you have an amazing economy from the get go and barely any unrest. Western rome is what you start as if you want a good run of the game without any difficulty!

>>187902518
I kek'd anon, but I ain't falling for that, I played BI

>>187902313

The Attila campaign mechanics are very basic.

If you're moving from Warhammer to Attila then the biggest adjustment you'll need to make is the 'tempo' of combat and the differences in the particulars of the battle AI.

Like I said it's mainly campaign mechanics, I'm rusty from Rome 2 but it looks like they added a shitton of new shit and I'm just fumbling around with it, what is this with abandoning settlements, farmland becoming unusable and shit like this? I figured sanitation is like Squalor from older games but a much bigger pain in the ass.

Well you abandon the city, get a bunch of money for it and raze the region.

Careful that immigration in attila is a thing and whenever you abandon, sack or raze a region near your borders you get immigration public order penalties from the "refugees"

>>187903225

Alright, but what's the best way to deal with sanitation? I hear that since it's like squalor it's practically impossible to deal with, but we can't genocide populations anymore

>>187903438
I really don't like how Chaos shits all over everything, it's meant to be a strategy game it doesn't need an "end boss".

Chaos should be what spawns once you've completed Short Campaign

>>187903567
Depends on faction, you get different sanitation buildings. But you generally plop some +sanitation building in one city in a province and call it a day. If upgrading a building would reduce you to 0 or worse, you never upgrade.

Anyone catch darrens last stream? have to use fucking mobile internet this week and got fuck all data to watch his stream feels bad

>>187903567
>I hear that since it's like squalor it's practically impossible to deal with

You heard wrong, you just build sanitation buildings.

Anyway it depends on the faction, Romans and Sassanid have an easy time dealing with it, that is if you don't go Christian with Rome.

Quadroon's a lot of things, but rightwing ain't one of them.

>>187903745
the most common alternative to latin christianity as rome is graeco roman paganism, which gives sanitation as part of its religious trait

>>187903572
It's nice to have a strong enemy to fight in the mid and late game. Rome 2 didn't have anything comparable and each campaign became a boring exercise in painting the map after a while.

>>187903853
ah, which is easier in your opinion?

>>187903857
the problem is they're exceedingly boring, they're a hoard faction. So they just roam around sacking shit

>>187903745
You lose plumbing, concrete etc. things you need to make aqueducts and similar old roman tech.

You get a lot of public order and -corruption in exchange, but CA nerfed the shit out of corruption anyway with the last Attila patch to appease shitters who complained about WRE being hard.

Speaking of which, if you want to play the game like everyone here played it, here is a mod to restore vanilla corruption

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=873526344

>>187903572
yeah it was pretty disappointing to finally get out of the badlands and see everything was already gone.

also turn 70, when i only had 1 settlement, scarsnik came out of fucking nowhere and attacked it but his shitty full stack of goblins just got raped by the garrison, twice. was pretty hilarious though, he wasnt even in the region, he like spawned out of a rebel faction or something and tried to end my campaign.

>>187903926
graeco roman is much easier in the start, since its churches cost food instead of money, and demolishing all of your latin buildings gives you a good amount of money to start fixing shit with. Bonus points if you are playing the ERE and use the funds to jump start your absurd interest trait

>>187903786
>Guy is completely honest on stream
>Next day recants everything because shills and CA's jew lawyers threatened him

Mmh...I wonder what should I believe, I'll go with the spontaneous outburst and not the carefully worded recant.

>>187903959
Yeah, if a rebel faction in a previously annexed/confederated region takes the city, it respawns that faction. I saw Artois reappear from Leonceur's gonads like that once.

Then they reconfederated anyway

It's all fucking baby tier shit.

"Most complicated" in a series that has always had EXTREMELY simple campaign mechanics is not the same as actually complicated.

Sanitation, fertility, food. All of it boils down to 4th grade math problems.

>>187904530
I don't think he is saying that wh is more complex

If you've actually convinced yourself that Attila is a superior game to Warhammer because of the """complex""" campaign mechanics then you need to actually neck yourself.

Attila has actual, real advantages over Warhammer such as far superior siege battles.

It is now September, and the return of the true Phoenix King is nigh. All across Naggaroth the legions of the Witch King beckon to their sovereigns summons.

Surveying his skin cloth campaign map for the last time, Malekith knows to be ever weary of the roving tribes in the north; and also not to be ignorant of any ambitious dreadlords.
Word has reached him that his mother has marched south without order, it is of little consequence, though the rumour that she has resurrected her cult of pleasure is troubling.

On Ulthuan his spies report that Tyrion is engaged with another cult, taking advantage of the conflict could allow the Witch King to establish another foothold on Ulthuan.

Further south where the shifting sands of Araby blow, it has been reported that the servile men of the Asrai have conquered swathes of land, the riches of this land could well aid Malekiths coffers if he chose to wrest it from them. Though another rumour, perhaps untrue, but not worth ignoring is that a hold of the ratmen is situated somewhere in this land.

Finally from out of the land of Lustria little has been heard, the most valuable pieces of information being that a notable lord of the lizardmen is currently fighting human settlers by himself, it could be advantageous to eliminate such an opponent as swiftly as possible. As for the other piece of information, it has been heard that the whoreson Teclis is leading an expedition on the southernmost tip of Lustria, supposing he survives the dangers of the land it would give Malekith great pleasure to have a rematch.

Regardless of where the first strike is made Malekith will control the vortex and regain his homeland. Domination by a best elf soon!

>>187908884
>High Elf White Lion (Male)
Hundreds of years old war veteran that was beached after his scouting detail was attacked by the Dark Elf Corsairs. Only likes Human Mage in the party. Tanking and pet lion helper..
>Dark Elf Corsair (Female)
Got beached at the same time with the White Lion. Edgy comic relief of the group. Two handed melee/dodge combat.
>Nuln Ironsider
Gritty veteran of many wars against chaos. Ranged specialist of the group.
>Slayer
'nuff said. kill the ratmen with two giant axes.
>Kislev Frost Witch
CC master of the group. Lowkey flirting with the Ironsider.
>Humiliated Bretonnian Paladin
In a quest for revenge because the ratmen ate his dear steed. A zealot for the lady. Another tanking option and could cast some blesses.

Is it odd that ive played several campaigns with the vampires but never actually played the vampire counts just Isabella/Vlad? I always liked the dual thing the couple had and it was fun traveling around as a double stack with Vlad being infantry heavy and Isa with all her flying/cavalry.

So do any unique skills any of the VC lords get make for some interesting army composition? I just got done with a playthrough of Napoleon Gelt and his band of gunpowder units and im looking for other Lords to play that can have other unique army makeups.

Put it in front of your line and let the enemy blob it. Then you can just bombard the blob with everything. It's a tank unit.

>>187913051
Both.
You can use the cannon to soften up the enemy and then have the steam tank parked in melee. Usually the AI will bunch up around it so you can shoot them/blow them up while they try to beat it up

I'm lazy, and the ALL of the Dwarfen rangers just decide to focus fire my 1 poor unit of Vargheists.

Imagine, you're just flying there, feeling rather bloodthirsty, when all of a sudden you're pumped
full of arrows, so many arrows that you can now be classed as some kind of undead porcupine,
and you wonder in that tiny animal brain of yours that maybe you could've lived your life differently,

>fucking Bretonnia always takes it three turns into the campaign
>don't want to fight them because they bring their friends and it's a pain in the ass

How on Earth are you supposed to stop them from doing that? Rush to Marienburg, ignore the Secessionists for a little while and hope they keep to themselves?

Really makes you think.

Keep the current roster of characters, add 1-2 more for variety so I never have to play the elf.

Adopt L4D's campaign format. Incentivise playing different maps for loot.

A vs mode would help with its lifespan

Someone should make a warhammer mod for divinity 2 when that comes out...I'd love to play out Ravandil's quest

STUFF?

I have a serious problem.

>>187917431
Ah, let me rephrase then. I just want a great roman era mod in general.

>>187917275
mmmmh...2 minute turn times....mmmmh

does anyone really struggle to find the will to finish the rest of the factions off in end game?

once i have completed the victory objective it feels like i am too strong to lose and finishing everyone off is just a formality

I've got 360 hours into TWW and I've finished 10 campaigns (and they are all total domination ones with extermination of every single faction and all settlements settled).

This guy must just either be lying or just has the game running while AFK all the time.

WHY ARE YOU PEOPLE NOT LETTING SOME USELESS GINGE MICK PR-BITCH BLEED YOU DRY?

Bardin with the 2h axe and slag pistols is the god combo

>>187917362
Because if you're smart with money you can shop around, you don't need to play warhammer

>>187916624
Probably Grimgor. He seems like a nice guy to have a drink with and the best wingman ever

>>187917275
>Attila: 1 side-campaign finished: 149 hours

I just can't. It's probably because of the setting and the really slow campaign. I have finished more campaigns in Rome 2

>>187917726
I have 505 hours and have finished like 2 campaigns.

After a certain point you've won and there's no point continuing, same with all TWs.

>>187917587
Take one settlement per turn then siege marienburg whilst a stack recruits then reinforces, helps if you ally middeland and they take out the minor settlement

>>187917275
this bait worked better than expected

>>187917587
Do you have any specific mods on? Marienburg starts with decent stack inside the city with a decent garrison. I never seen it conquered before ~15-20 turn in.

Anon the door to this worlds heart is that way

>>187917935
900 hours. 3 campaigns.

Probably started 30 campaigns though. I never completed a single campaign in any of the older TW titles anyway.

Jesus fucking Christ how do you do it?

Total War gets so fucking tedious when you go for Total Domination.
