Blood dragons when

Reminder that BOTET is fucking shit and devs are pure cancer
You're minding your own business as rightful Reikland Emperor when this guy bursts in and starts slagging you off
wyd?
>>143644181
meh, not really. I got a good 16 hours on my Empire campaign and Im not finished yet.
Guys why isnt there any peaceful options in this game. Fucking annoys me to hell thats bullshit senpai
spookin' em good
should i bother trying to charge anything as dwarves or just sit 4 ranks deep and eat any charges

ITS TIME FOR AN AMBUSH MEN
also I noticed that bretonnians simply being in an imperial province makes the forests more lush
>>143644181
Took me 260 turns for my greenskin long victory, could have probably gotten it in 200-220 if I rushed more
I just don't have to wat 40-1 minute per turn anymore

>>143644646I'm completely incompetent when it comes to computer technobabble.
Can only run Overwatch on the lowest settings.
Okay so the AI is a cheating bitch and the game could use a few patches, but can anybody say it's actually a bad game?
>>143644634
When you get a Lord that gets the upgrades for the fellbats + dogs, and the tech tree upgrades to them - they can shred 90% of the unit roster in the game if they get a flank in.
as much as I like the game, the game feels so unfinished, each faction needs 5 or more units, it feels like Im seeing the same units everytime
Im really waiting for Wood Elves, Skaven, and Kislev
they also should let you customize each units or atleast have an army painter, I wonder how theyre gonna implement equiping certain units items like arrows or great weapons
>>143644746
Its not a bad game. It just gets extremely tedious when you're in the late game
>>143644720

>>143644706
THIS PICTURE DOES NOT HAVE MY CONSENT
>>143644746
a good chunk of the units don't even perform half as well as they're supposed to, whether you're coming at it with the mentality of a tabletop player or just reading the stat cards in game. it's neat but broken as shit. it just manages to not do retarded shit like have boats sailing into cities.
is it just me, or are dire wolves and bats not worth the unit slot?
>>143644815
>being mean
I'm not used to having "Expendable" units.
I still don't like losing units of zombies, skellingtons and fellbats.
>>143644706
Fucking Toris man.
>>143644746
I like it but im a oldskool Warhammer fanboy so im biased.
A lot of the fun comes from the setting and getting to be in the universe; when you take that out of the picture I'd say its pretty average.
>>143644759
You're seeing 5 different races. That's more than enough.

It's just you. Poison direwolves and bats can do some serious work when given all the upgrades/Lord boosts/built from a heavily forested province. They're quick, cheap, and remarkably good at flanking. Like all non-humans they're dogshit in auto resolve though.

I sure hope you built the garrison upgrade, then again, without a lord in there you're probably fucked anyway.

Gobbo archers are decent though, they do decent damage against quarrellers even. Also wolf archers are great skirmishers.

What's THE mod for Attila guys? I bought it for the Age of Charlemagne DLC (I'm a huge Carolingianboo) but I've played that to death and want to actually play the proper Campaign now but the gameplay sucks ass.
Also what's the best Nomadic Group to play as,
>>143645372
Dibs on Nurgle
>>143645467
It might but I don't think auto-resolve odds will be so different.
>>143645506
There's no one mod
>>143644789
Yeah, but you can say that about every TW game.
>>143645462
Yes, but PC is generally used for computers that sit in your house or next to you in an office, because laptops are more compact they're usually referred to as their own thing, specifically when looking into how easy to upgrade individual parts or when used for the sake of gaming.

Thats when you overcharge a spell I'm pretty sure
>>143645931
>what is timezones
>>143645341
That's one starting tier unit vs another though. And the poor leadership and armour of the goblins is big disadvantage in many situations.
Take Night Goblins, you can have a unit of Orc Big Uns for just 50% more upkeep and Black Orcs are only twice as expensive.
I'm about to start an all Goblin campaign, which should be fun, but there's really no point in taking Gobbos other than the wolves past the early stages of the game if you're looking purely at what the most effective use of a slot in your stack is.

Artillery is a bit shit isnt it, i wish it was strong as the ones in Fots
Alright so I've wiped out the Empire and Chaos, shall I wipe out the last of humanity then go after the undead, or the other way around
>>143646031
Kek
Also somehow my greataxe Marauders can be losing slightly when the swordsman unit it's engaging is losing decisively.
>>143646070
i had fun with my hellcannon, but seeing as chaos don't have too much ranged its almost your only option
>>143645980

If you can't stop invasions getting that far into the Empire, you should probably just quit and go play Chaos with the rest of the casuals.

Some gloryhounds these Chaos warriors are.
>>143645846
you upgrade spells through your lord's skillpoints
you can also overcharge spells by clicking on their button twice. This adds a misfire chance, but generally makes the spell better in some way.
>tfw only 0.7% of people have won a chaos campaign.
>tfw you wonder why you even bothered with the last stages of grinding down bretonnia and empire
>>143646203
Getting hit with rockets in the face was instant death in Fots
Most units just get up after getting hit in this
>>143646175
Not him but nothing wrong with fortifying your most important province. If you've expanded northward already then it's not necessary but if the river is your line of defense it's essential for Eilhart/Helmgart.
Helmgart almost requires it because with fortifications you never have to worry about the Bretonnians backstabbing you (bretonnia may not - they did for me right as Chaos arrived, but I've had other Bretonnian nations do so).
Grunburg doesn't need it because you can have Stirland and Nuln/Wissenland as buffers.
Eilhart is a mixed bag because unless you've expanded into Middenland and the Wastes you'll have to keep a stack around in Marienburg's area because of the stupid fucking forest making it 2 turns from Hoveldorf to Eilhart.
Fortification is really peace of mind and great security against some marching sanic fast chaos/norsca regiment sneaking past and hitting you.
I'm surprised that guy doesn't have a tavern to help with unrest though.
>mfw there are people in this thread who spell orc with a k right now
>>143646403
I thought it was different things.
>>143646465
0.4% as Orcs, which is probably the easiest campaign.
Someone once said that Manfred gets a special cutscene when taking Altdorf. Is that true? Tried it out, didn't get anything
>>143646540
Just mucked about with a bunch of Chaos warriors, clicking on them repeatedly until they mentioned each God. Think the more common quotes involve glory.
>>143646489
I always build the fortifications.
You only need to drop a lord in and then you'll stand a good chance of beating any roaming fuckers who pop up behind your lines.
I have read you actually likes Rome 2.
I just want to know why?
>>143644045
>play dwarves
>whole armies of orc archers just run circles around me, even after killing their leader.
What do
>>143644045
>DiplexAutism video
>"Reiksguard Handgunners"
>what
>the video is just him with 4 units of them killing useless zombies
What a pointless fucking video. And fucking Radious stop this shit.
>>143644219
I noot noot him until he fucks off.
Holy fuck. Dwarves is by the easiest campaign but also the most Tedious. You have to expand Westward and Southwards while hoping Chaos goes towards the Empire side and all the while your hoping the VC don't come down from the North.
Took me 200 turns to finally end the campaign and the last 20 or so turns was chasing down stray Chaos hordes because they have torn the Empire a new asshole.
>>143646824
THE THRONG IS MUSTARD
>>143646759
>still no mod for proper faction banners
You'd think it would have been one of the first
>>143646754
Maybe use quarellers, obviously?
>>143646853
Right after another quality balancing mod by the talented Radious team
>>143646520
It's gork and mork not gorc and morcI know you're correct but I dealt with 40k long before warham fantasy so ork is muscle memory.
>>143646869

>>143646920
>only 4 (four) units of quarrelers

>>143646920
Quarellers win that p easily, since they got armor
>>143646920
>4
8 is the absolute minimum for a stack.
>>143646943
>The Banner of Stirland shows a skeleton sounding a hunting horn, signifying a call to battle. The skeleton itself is a common symbol of the lands, an expression of both the Stirlander battle cry "Victory or Death" and a grim reminder of the lands of Sylvania that they share borders with.
Christ all my Ork bosses look like burn victims or those people that got attacked by monkeys in the face
Grimgor is Sigvald compared to these ugly fucks
>not using all night gobbos all the time
Are trolls even worth using or should i just wait for giants
Is it worth using Radious?
>>143647262
REIKSGUARD HEAVY CROSSBOWMEN (HALBERDS)
Who thought it was a good idea to have Chaos start steamrolling 20 to 30 turns in? What the fuck man I barely got Sylvania in order and now Chaos sends full stacks against me.
This is the least comfy TW ever. I want to march the undead against the empire god fucking damn it not fend off cheat AI stacks. Hated that shit from realm divide onward. It got turbo autistic in vanilla Rome 2 when the civil war wasn't even predictable just totally random. At least they fixed that.
But what the fuck is this Chaos bullshit and how do I disable it?

The problem is I like some of the changes, like making combat last longer and some other misc changes, but it also does a lot of weird shit. And I'm sure there could be problems with balance.
>>143647262
I doing campaign using radious,the combat is slower(and better),you can afford way more armies which makes very hard/legendary doable
Archaon got rekd by Kislev though
>>143647262
>REIKSGUARD GIANT ON ARACHANROK CHARIOT (LORE OF METAL)
>>143647479
Archaon has been wounded twice and I haven't even seen him once, despite bordering the Southern part of Kislev. Which is the only part of Kislev left.
How do I beat chaos corruption.
These faggot chaos agents are just sitting in my territory spreading corruption and reducing public order and I cant fucking do anything about it.
My agents have a sub 20% chance to wound them even when I level them up and spec them for assassination
Powerful agents are a shit mechanic and always have been in the newer total wars.

So I just started an Empire run, and I think they did a poor job explaining the whole uniting the empire thing.

>>143647917
It's been happening since TW:W. Tons of babbies coming into twg nowadays.
>>143647950
no idea m8, I illegally saved it without permission from an earlier thread.
>>143648015
use the bats to pin them and then bring the dogs in
>>143648020
Honestly though, TW is so stagnated and theres finally a new game. Do you really expect people to still be talking about Atilla or whatever?
>>143647678
What the fuck is that?
I haven't read anything about WHFB after the end times.
>>143648015

>>143648015
>My dogs can't keep up
Bullshit, they're the fastest thing in the game.
I took the 4 first Empire settlements and completed the province
Now how do I take Marienburg? I went up to him with 20 units and the bar was all red, so I abandoned the siege and ran home
I have about 1200 income should I build a second stack? I can hardly afford a half extra stack I think
If I raid his region will he come out of the city to attack me?
This is kind of cool. Looks like the Empire held their ground here while chaos sacked literally everything else that isn't me, the dorfs and the undead. Although the undead are coping it now.
That's pretty helms deep.

That there's no underway in the fucking swamp.

I think it's more that the swamp is the canon location of the underground city of skavenblight.

Explain this
So anyone else never getting siege battles? I know there has always been a very vocal group who hated siege battles and demanded field battles. But for me Warhammer went way to far.
I'm never getting sieged, and with the removal of settlement and bridge battles there's no fucking battle variety at all. I just keep fighting the same field battles over and over. It wouldn't be bad if the maps were more interesting but they aren't. It's been a problem since Rome2. The maps seem randomly generated and boring. There's no good areas to set up. No hilltops or like a small village. Everything is just bland rolling hills with forest and rivers.
So far Iv had one good map that was in Tilia where they're were two large hills and a river between them with a small forest runing along he river. That's been the only interesting map so far.
I was really disappointed that when I had two armies sitting at a bridge and Archeon the Evercucked came calling I was excited. I had cannons and plenty of Halberdiers and Spearmen. And it's a field battle.
It's one of the few complaints I have so far. Do you think they can add it back or are we shit out of luck? This is the problem with the Total War community. They bitch about shit expecting improvements and don't realize modern game companies don't do that. They remove rather then improve 90% of the time.
