WHO ARE YOU MAINING?
High Elves.
>>337841706
Empire or dwarves, though the dwarves in warhammer fantasy look fucking goofy
As someone who hasn't played any warhammer game's before, which one would you guys recommend?
Also, why the game's I see on steam looks spacy gamewhile this one looks medieval? Diferent universes?
>>337841706
probably going to go vampire counts first
>>337842201
There is fantasy warhammer and wh40k, which is sci-fi-fantasy in space. Both are different universes, not connected, but share some common themes.
You might want to try Mark of Chaos, which is an alright rtt, if you are interested in fantasy.
>>337842471
They actually are connected, but not by a lot
>>337842201
There are two main warhammers; Warhammer 40k which is set in the year 40'000 where humanity has expanded way, way, way past the Earth and fights in wars involving billions of xeno or other cunts, and Warhammer fantasy which is pretty much traditional fantasy.
Elves. Oh wait.
All I need and all I will ever play is The Empire.
>>337841706
Vampire and Chaos look sweet
Dorfs are obviously cool.........
Umies are meh
>>337842585
Elf shitters BTFOenjoy your Elf DLC
Are Bretonnia in it or dlc?
Fuck gw for removing them from fantasy
>>337842848
Bretonia will become playable later as FLC.
>>337842565
They aren't. It's just a fan-theory.
>>337842978
Fucking hell, everyone I like is DLC
Guess I'll go vamps or chaos then since I owned a bit of chaos and vamps are pretty cool
>>337843005
In earlier editions of both Warhammer Fantasy and Warhammer 40,000, there were many indications that the Warhammer World, the planet that is the primary setting for Warhammer Fantasy, was located in the same universe as Warhammer 40,000. In later editions of both games, Games Workshop moved to create more of a separation between the two fictional universes, although they have also never completely denied the earlier connections between the two settings. It is likely that the Warhammer World does exist in the same universe as Warhammer 40,000 as the Warhammer World is known to have been terraformed and reshaped by beings known as the Old Ones, the same alien entities as the Old Ones of the Warhammer 40,000 universe.
>>337842758
Yes, I will.
>>337843150
>DLC
Brets will be free and the first faction to be added into the game after release.
Tomb Kings.
I can wait.
>>337843162
Anon, I read the same wiki article a minute ago. Don't make it sound like you typed all that out.
>http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Warhammer_Fantasy
>>337841706
I would like to main Lizards, but they are not there yet.
>>337843395
>Tomb Kings
>>337841706
I'm maining responsible consumer by not buying this shit after rome 2
>>337843361
Still a negative either way
the stuff I want to play as isn't in the game
Can you play as Lizard Men? or is it following age of shitmar cannon and my old race is still fucked off to space in their rocket pyramids
when is skaven going to be announced
>>337843948
Age of Skubmar never happened, the game is Warhammer Fantasy before the shitfest that was the End Times
but my lizardbros are not in on the first game ;_;
>>337841706
>Maining
I'll give Sigvald a go for my first run, because fucking fabulous motherfucker.
Down the pipe I'll stick with the High knifeears when they eventually get added through their planned DLC/Expansion pack.
But that doesn't mean I won't give all factions and legendary lords a go. I mean, why restrict yourself?
I don't mind shit being DLC because I'll pirate it a year after release when all the patches come out and its not a horrible buggy pile of shit like all their games end up being at launch.
>>337841706
Skaven, once they'll be announced as DLC/expansion.
>>337844094
>>337843948
I hope they will add them.
>>337843191
I wonder how authetic witch elves and sorceresses will be portayed.
>>337843005
The fans in question being the writers and designers of the tabletop game, but okay.
>>337841706
Count Vampires, everyone else is a pleb.
>>337842632
this is the only true answer
>>337843395
>>337843554
>he still thinks Tomb Kings have a chance when GW themselves disregarded them in the tabletop game
>>337844378
there will supposedly be 3 games, each one expanding on the world map of previous one
one of the goals was to add all 16 factions by the end
>>337843395
>Tomb kings? whats tomb kings?
>i now main tomb kings
make that happen
for the love of god
>>337844108
>Sigvald the Magnificent
I just love the fact of how much asshurt he's producing within the fans because "Muh dark and edgy chaos lords".
Slaanesh needs some lovin' too you know, not to mention he breaks up the monotony that chaos gets with its constant Khorne and Tzeentch wankery.
I hope they'll add a Khorne legendary lord either as a free addition or dlc later.
>>337844675
>in a world full of fantasy, I chose to play standard boring humans
>>337841706
Dark Elves
Tomb Kings
Lizardmen
Kislev
>>337844832
>khorne legendary lord
Fuck me, I meant nurgle
I want secondary shits that didn't even know WHFB existed before this game to leave
>>337841706
High Elves or Skaven.
>>337841706
orcs and goblins of course
im not a giant faggot
>>337844918
Why is this game ripping off Warcraft?
>>337844832
I was always under the impression that Tzeentch gets the least love. You got Khorne in everything, also Nurgle in Mark of Chaos and a slaaneshi unit in DoW II.
>>337844918
Played Dark Omen at release on PSX.
Can i stay?
>>337845170
How much money did you sink in toy soldiers, books and paints?
>>337844918
liking WHFB is a curse. First End Times, then AoS and now we have to deal with ignorant fucking shits mispronouncing names and getting confused about characters and lore.
>>337845350
0 amounts of money
>Not calling the game Total Warhammer
I can't believe how could they fuck up so bad and pass this opportunity
>>337845664
you need to kill yourself man
im sorry
>>337845771
No one played it and there was no store in my town.
>>337845736
i think there were some pretty harsh words on copyright on that one
>>337845864
thats no excuse. i have been collecting wfb for years and i have never played it with another person
just like a real nerd would do
>>337844881
Thats, like, your opinion, man.
>>337841706
what's the games name again?
And will it actually be good this time around? DoW 2 was pretty shit in my opinion, felt lacking
>>337841706
It's hard to choose, CA choices for the first 4 races was really good, I love them all evenly.
I say that as elves lover.
>Radeon 6850 HD
I'll actually have to upgrade my toaster this time.
shit sucks
So, how fucked will it be on release and how long will it take for them to fix it?
>>337845075
Tzeentch seems to be the focal point chaos god in this game based on the trailer.
However it could just be a thing, but who knows, but so far, showing a Lord of Change is kind of a big deal.
As for coverage in the games, Khorne is pretty obvious.
Nurgle had a big plot point and plenty of coverage in DoW 2 via the story and units, not to mention its own hero unit with abilities.
Tzeentch is pretty much the same via the sorcerer hero unit and shit.
Slaanesh has only gotten the noise marines, and that's it, not even a hero unit.
And all chaos gods got an equal amount of coverage in battlefleet gothic: Armada via ship favors.
So Slaanesh has obviously been overlooked due to the deviant nature of he/she/it.
When most of your units are covered in tits and dicks its not gonna float so well with the ESRB. But most people forget that Slaanesh isn't all about sex, tits and deviancy, there's also hedonism, decadence and hubris, not just lust and shit.
Like with Sigvald, a fabulous Fabio lookin' motherfucker who's so far up his own ass he outfits his entire royal guard with mirror shields so he can stare at his own reflection during battle, and will occasionally stop his charges so he can do so, not giving a shit.
Murdered a bunch of elves because their hair was prettier than his
Leveled a city because their wine tasted bad
This guy is fucking outrageous and I love it. Shows the other sides of Slaanesh other than the tits and dicks everyone knows he/she/it for.
>>337846224
It looks like it will be a decent release but with balancing issues. Bretonnia fucking sucks so it's going to be easy to stomp bret players in multiplayer(their infantry leg it 1 sec after contact).
Also a lot of the vampire early units are so shit that you can just rush and destroy them early in the campaign with a way smaller army.
>>337846671
Man, I'm glad the charges are as fucking powerful as they are.
There's nothing more satisfying than seeing a flanked dorf/goblin get flung half a mile.
>>337846782
>Man, I'm glad the charges are as fucking powerful as they are.
This is the heaviest/most elite shock cavalry in the game.
Normal charges are not as impressive but still extremely improved from the older TW games.
>>337846671
I remember the devs saying they wanted to give impact to the cavalry charges and make them feel like they actually give a difference compared to infantry. I'm glad they managed to do that.
>>337846321
>he outfits his entire royal guard with mirror shields so he can stare at his own reflection during battle.
I don't know who came with this idea but it's absolutely awesome.
>>337846953
Sure, but I've seen the videos.
Cavalry charges have always been pretty lackluster in the older games, but this time around they've focused on making it way better. Compared to say medieval 2 where they would occasionally just stop or when they hit the infantry its like a brick wall.
Its a massive improvement.
>>337847203
medieval 2 is 10 years old tho
>>337846321
At least its not another khorne shitshow
>>337845578
>implying
it's always nice to see people asking about WHFB lore and wanting to get into it
makes it easier to bear the pain
>>337848279
^This
Be glad they aren't buying into the sigmarines
>>337846321
Sigvald is in the game m8, he is one of the 3 Chaos campaigns and the only aligned one (Archaon and Kholek are the other campaigns)
Thank god this is not another Khorne vs Nurgle game
>>337841706
THE MOST BADASS FACTION. THE WARRIORS OF CHAOS
>>337848487
I should've mentioned that he was, that was the whole point why I brought him up as an example.
Vampire Counts.
