>OVERCASTING SPELLS
Double click a spell (it needs to be a boostable spell and you need to have enough magic in the magic pool) to overcast the spell
There's a 50% chance that the caster damages itself though!
>QUEST BATTLE TELEPORT
Select your lord (make sure he isn't garrisoned or in a stance)
Select the quest battle (on the map or through quest log)
There's a button in the bottom right of the quest battle window that you can use to teleport for 5k gold (when the battle's finished you're automatically teleported back to your original position)
>GROUP ATTACK
Group units with ctrl + g
Select your group and right click the enemy
All your units move and automatically direct themselves to and engage enemies they get close to while maintaining formation

Why are wood elves so low in popularity? I havent played the tabletop personally but from what I've seen they seem neat. Although that might be because I always liked "ranged" gameplays

Truly the most anticipated of factions!
>>147712950
Your words mean nothing without proof. You can say this game based on 8th Edition, because of the fact that there Bretonia and no Sigmarines, but we don't know if this true or they just wanted to implement Bretonia. So until there proof that this is indeed 8th Edition and not they custome edition with part of 8th - we can't assume that this is 100% 8th.

>>147713464
Well that's just, like, your opinion man.
>>147713415
I only wrote that there no more TK in AoS, so the chance for them to appear in TWW kinda low, because GW always use games to promote fucking miniatures, and then all the TK fags started shitstorm on me with their assumes about me being Vamp fag.
TK is one of the most boring factions in FB.
>>147713189
>GREEN AND MEAN
I kind of hope they give Beastmen something like the Orcpoopillars.
>>147713464
Skaven are the strongest, most interesting faction in the warhammer universe.
How can the others even compete?
>>147713557
CA said they want all 16 factions in the game. Tomb Kings already have an army book so are pretty much guaranteed, nobody cares about AoS because the game doesn't take place in AoS.

>>147713518
Nah it's more like a fact. Beastmen are a shitty version of the chaos army with less variety.
>>147713674
Skavens are fucking pathetic but at least they get much more variety than the beastmen. Which is probably why we'll only get skaven much later. If they go for beastmen they'll be able to recycle half the roster of the warriors of chaos.
>>147713806That's still just your opinion
SKAVEN ARE THE MOST POWERFUL FACTION
THEY HAVE THE BEST TECHNOLOGY AND CULTURE AND DESERVE TO RULE ABOVE GROUND AND THE UNDERGROUND
EMPIRE AND DWARFS ARE JUST CHILDREN PLAYING WITH TOYS COMPARED TO SKAVEN TECHNOLOGY AND EACH GREY SEER HAS MORE MAGICAL POTENTIAL IN HIS CUTE PINK NOSE THAN EVERY HIGH ELF ARCHMAGE PUT TOGETHER
SKAVEN ARE NUMBER ONE AND DESERVE TO BE IN TWW MORE THAN ANY OTHER FUCKING RACE AND IT PAINS ME THAT THEY HAVEN'T BEEN ADDED
FUCK CHAOS
FUCK ELVES

GREY SEER THANQUOL, LORD OF THE VERMINTIDE
Finished possibly the most bizarre TWW playthrough yet. Ended the long play through controlling all of the Dawi territory, but more interestingly finished it with an alliance that included, The Empire, Bretonnia, Border Princes and *drum roll* Vampire Counts. And mind you it wasn't some shitty typical TW alliance where everyone hates each other and breaks the alliance up when a 70 strength faction declares war on one of them, every faction within the alliance held at least a 60+ diplomacy rating with one another.

Would adding mercenaries break the game?
I think I'm about to lose my Empire campaign fuck
>>147715730
It doesn't make sense for a lot of factions
>>147715736
How? Did you fuck up the start? That's the only way I can see anyone losing.
Give me your best Karl Franz /twg/
what did he mean by this?
do mods work in co-op campaigns, and do they break the game? eg. desyncs and whatnot?
If they do work, are there any fun ones that are must haves. I just started an orc and a vamp campaign yesterday and I'm having fun. The vamps raise dead in particular has been pretty silly at times for me.
>>147715891
Not him, but I lost my VH Empire campaign about 90 turns in from just a maelstrom of fucked shit. I've played every faction except Chaos and Empire always felt like I was walking on the razors edge of complete catastrophe compared to the others.
Example, one of the Orc hordes from real early on suddenly farts back into the Empire from the south, with a full stack and proceeds to just raze 6 towns in my core region in my less defended provinces.
>>147716149
How could they raze 6 towns? Didn't you have walls on everything? A single stack should manage two walled towns at best.
>>147712986
High Elves were so boring in how broad but still good their roster was.
Not the best but the most consistently good.
Lizardmen a best.
Fuck those fucking Skaeling, spamming those atrocious poison dogs, horsecock riders, nigger trolls, exemplar skills, raiding every fucking where, while I'm chasing the Everchosen and Prince Cocksucer in useless dwarf mountains with fucking attrition, REEEEE.
Dear /twg/
For someone who is deeply in love with Attila: TW, please tell me why would buying Rome 2 with all its DLC as it is today a bad thing.
What is STILL wrong with Rome 2 with all the addons and patches today?
Should I buy it or not? Mind you, coming from soneone who adores Attila.
>>147717008
It's just a worse version of Attila in everyway
>>147717008
If you're getting the game anyway, why not just get the base game first, try it out, and then get the DLC if you like it?
>>147717064
But do elaborate, please!
I need some serious opinions, because the comfy setting draws me in.
AFAIK it only lacks - burning, family tree [tho it does have minimal 'politics']... what else?

First playthrough, Chaos ripped right the fuck through the northern provinces, my main army just defeated 2 and a half full Varg stacks but lost 2/3rds of its strength, my other armies are undermanned since I was building up military infrastructure and money generating buildings like crazy, thinking I had more time.
>>147717008
Really not much is wrong with Rome 2 any more. Of course there's the fact that there's no family trees but you can still get some fairly interesting politics going on. I like it more than shogun 2, because shogun 2 has no variety. I like it more than attila because Attila still and will forever run like a 210 year old asthmatic tortoise with arthritis in its knees. It's honestly my favorite warscape tw game next to warhams now.
>>147717158
Can you elaborate? I am asking for honest opinions which are elaborated upon.
Total Warhammer is great, I admit, but to put as high as Shogun 2? It's basically Rome 2 / ATTILA styled TW with mechanics cut and spread among the factions to make them diverse. And then not all is there.
Sure, the setting is awesome and it has that comfy HOMM thing going for it.
As to Shogun 2 - I actually like Attila more.

Any improvement in performance if you're not SLI?
Personally I always get annoyed when I play Rome 2 because there's no building browser, you can't see what your generals/agents abilities build towards and the encyclopedia is beyond shit.
The core gameplay is good enough, but it's the small things that really drive me up against the wall and prevents me from enjoying it.
>>147716064
>Peace is for the weak!
>Are you weak?
Well anon, are you?
What is Rome 2 missing from Attila?
I seriously would like to know.
Can someone tell me?
Family trees are missing, burning on the battlefield is missing, razing is missing, religion is missing (tho it has culture in its place).
Anything else? Because truth be told, TW has more shit cut, and people seem to love it (I do too, just wondering whether I should get Rome 2 and not be dissapointed).

>Turn 267 as Dawi
>Only one faction left that doesn't even control 1/3rd of the map; Brittonia
Sigh. I finally got good, got my dream armies set up. Some for demolishing forts and structures, others specialized for anti infantry, yet I can't even flex my muscles. The game peaked way too early (turn 84) and now I'm left as a super nation with no challengers.
There needs to be more end game content or at least, some AI function that acknowledges you can take on multiple stacks of high end units en mass now. Orcs never got their giants or Araknaroks, Chaos went without Dragon orges and such, V.cunts never got more than their infantry. It just FEELS like there is a lot more content I missed out on.
I am the king of a single person empire.

Generally, the issue with Rome 2 is that its UI is terrible.
You want to know if it's better to build a market versus building a temple? You don't know unless you either waste time and resources to try it out or go looking trough the encyclopedia, which is a nightmare to look through because of the huge amount of factions in both the main game and the various campaigns. Not to mention it is slow as shit and not always correct.
You want to know if you should give your general/agent/army upgrade A or upgrade B? You don't know which one is better since you don't know how well they scale with their later upgrades and you have no way of knowing what other upgrades they lead into. This makes planning ahead really hard to do without alt-tabbing out and looking for the information on the internet - if you can even find it.
Then there's some more subjective shit, like I personally hate the unit and building icons and I think the campaign map is really empty and boring to look at.
And I almost forgot about the corruption mechanic. Granted, I haven't played it in a long while, but I remember the corruption being capped at 95% or so, meaning you're making no money late game and it just stops your momentum when taking over the undeveloped provinces of the AI. There's nothing to stop you from blitzing a faction, except if would bankrupt you from the increase to corruption. This can of course only happen once, but it can completely kill your campaign if you're no prepared for it.
And then there's the garrisons. With the emperor edition they ruined the garrisons in the game. Any city will never have more than 10 units defending it (of which you'll always have 2-4 units of plebs or equivalent, which are useless), even when upgraded to the max, meaning you're completely dependent on your armies to defend your shit. And this also means you don't face any resistance and can just zerg an entire faction once you break their armies.
>>147717851
Makes for great screens and rp for me, plus you have the middle ground between Empire/R2 grand campaign that covers half the world and the peninsular/aoc/whatever smaller campaigns, which can be nice sometimes if you want more detail but still have more breathing room.
>>147717851
what the fuck are you on about?
a spear unit is still a spear unit in rome 2
>>147716254
The stack was mostly big uns, big un boar riders and about 6 units of trolls. Shit rolls over garbage empire garrisons. The only one that did any damage was the one town I had a Reiksfort in it. Their general was some how fucking level 17 also

Well I learned never ever to take vassals. Enemies are like weeds got to exterminate them all or they will build up 3 stacks and randomly declare war against you.
>>147716064
STUMPED
>>147719710
You have to treat your vassals nicely. The game tries to deteriorate your relations as it goes along, and you have to continuously manage it.
I had great use of having that green Vampire faction as vassals during my Vampire campaign. They roamed my home area and fended of intruders, and once in a while sent some stacks up north and slapped Chaos and Norscans for me
>>147720380
I should of bribed them, they declared war after I made them my vassal shortly after I dominated them. What was really annoying was the last property I allowed them was corruption free and by all means they shouldn't have been able to raise 3 stacks, but the ai cheats it's ass off.

What skills are most important for mannfred? I'm afraid I'm going to miss out on some key stuff because of the limited skill points.
In fact, is there a general rule of thumb for what stuff to take over others when it comes to lords?
>>147712894
keep on rollin'
>>147724464
Definitely go for 3 ticks of replenishment.
Death spells you need not go farther than Fate of Bjuna, vortexes are ass. Aspect of Dreadknight and Doom and Darkness are useful too.
In Vamp lore, the passive one is good, as well as Raise Dead. Gaze of Nagash is a bit tricky to use with terrain, but the Zombie Dragon solves that. You might want to go for Earthing if you plan on a lot of overcasting.
After that, I just went straight into melee skills.

Is there anyone who plays multiplayer battles? Which one is most op shit to avoid? Which one is most fun shit to play?
>>147725094
yes NTW was quite hard even though you didnt lose it was atleast a challenge. I think its the nature of the warfare, in melee games you win easily by hammer and anvil every time. In gunpowder games you're primarily being shot at and TW ai is quite good at shooting.
>playing Chaos VH and it's impossible.
seriously Skaelings have SIX (6) stacks at turn 30. How the fuck am I supposed to defeat that?

>Enemy breaks before your handgunners can flank and I can watch

>>147725793
TW AI was awful at shooting especially ETW. Also your forgetting that archers exist in previous TW titles and Archers have always been the most cost-effective unit in any pre-industrial revolution Total war.

>>147726213
No everybody basically agrees the AI in this game is built for shooting not melee
The ai in general is embarrassingly bad and CA should be ashamed
How playable is ETW with Imperial Splendour?
I dislike the focused frame and timespan of NTW.
>>147725793
It's more a case of higher lethality really. In melee-focused games you usually can reliably form a main line of hardy troops and have it receive the brunt of the enemy force, and if you put better troops in the main line they're most probably going to perform much better. In Empire/Napoleon even the lowest unit can shoot your men dead if they get close, arrows are more lethal than what you're used to because of no armor, and melee is quick and brutal for the same reason. If you put grenadiers or guards in the main line they're going to win a fair fight against line infantry but at a much higher cost than what a dismounted knight unit against spearmen would, so you have to use them differently.
tl;dr everything is a glass cannon, or just glass

>>147725356
It's alright anon I feel you, some of these guys here are just tryhard gaylords with NO BALLS. They can't pull off anything flashy or glorious if it hurts their chances of winning due to a lack of aforementioned balls.
>>147726785
Yes, both in stats and unit numbers quality is going to be differen between nations. Playing against russia is a short stand before they affix bayonets while going against austria means the usual stand and shooty. Curiously enough prussia tended to get up close and personal pretty often against me, but the infantry charges were well timed with death's head hussars so there's that. It probably just all clicked into place but it was a pretty "oh shit" moment when they just ignored one of my flanks like that and collapsed the other switching the battlefield by 90°
>>147725963

>>147726000
Fucking this. Battles are so retardedly fast in Warhams that you barely have time to hammer and anvil before one side or the other have broken.

In general I'd say that playing as prussia is sort of like playing as some minors at start, you're surrounded by a bunch of factions that could all gang up on you if you're weak. At start you don't want to slowly build up your economy but get a big strong army going so that your power ranking will make AI minors think twice before dowing you. While you're weak at start no one will want to trade with you, that will change once you become one of the big players. Sometimes the AI will just dow you no matter what right after you conquer a region, don't be afraid to actually give that region to them in exchange for money, peace agreements and anything you want, they'll stop bothering you. The AI almost always won't betray you when it has military access, you can use 20 turns concessions to get better diplomatic leverage. When in doubt on how to develop a settlement, build schools.

Can someone post the Bretonnia horse, Empire knights with Dawi Trollhammer Torpedos on their shoulders, not on hips?
>>147725963
Skaeling are like Kislev and Tilea/Estalia/border princes. A low-tech version of another faction.
So if you think about it they can't field the really good stuff like chaos knights, mutant trolls, daemon cannons etc. etc.
This opens up several new dynamics in your favor on the battlefield.
So with that in mind you have to git gud.

I ask you: Do you want total war? If necessary, do you want a war more total and radical than anything that we can even imagine today?
Radious mod is not a mod to be taken literally. It is saturated with an abundance of metaphors and symbolism; some painfully and intentionally obvious whiles others painfully subtle. It is not particularly intelligent and never makes any attempts at being profound. Although occasionally nonsensical and gratuitously pornographic, it would be wrong to judge Radious mod on its face value alone.
Radious mod is the ugly duckling: scorned for unsightliness, but an ethereal swan from the start. It is a fairytale of vibrant colours and simple joys. It truly is that brilliant painting of which a fleeting glimpse you catch, but an enduring impression you get.
In conclusion, I do not think Radious mod deserves all the ridicule and hatred that is being dished out. The stringency and inadaptability of the traditional historical and lore friendly approach practiced by so called "understanders of strategy" is to blame for this. Hoc salsum esse putas? fugit te, inepte: quamuis sordida res et inuenusta est. Radious mod is unshackled from such rigidities and doing so through homosexuality rather than the vapid norm, it sheds light on the enigma which has eluded psychologists for centuries.
Nun, Volk, steh auf und Sturm brich los!
How do you fix it?

Uninspired and repetitive as mods nowadays are, many a disillusioned fan don’t hesitate to call out the medium as fallen. Along comes Radious mod, the latest entry to modding self-critique and introspection.
On the surface Radious mod seems like your ordinary mod which is seemingly unremarkable but whose charm is so irresistible yet so subtle, that the people who've played it cannot but fall for it, much to the frustration of some self proclaimed "understanders of strategy" who cannot see any logic to these affections. Os et labra tibi lingit, Manneia, catellus: non miror, merdas si libet esse cani.
Unlike our hack-ridden mod industry, Radious Mod uses metaphors in an excruciatingly subtle way. Sharp-eyed spectators should be able to spot the humanistic properties Radious mod displays. Radious mod is a self-aware and self-referencing work. It points out the flaws and implausibilities which often plague its genre, yet offers no alternative. Though criticized for conforming to its genre without innovation, composing the rest of the mod with uninspiring features essential in achieving what Radious mod wishes to do. While it does highlight the unrealism which plagues the modding community, it also serves to illustrate the irrationality of passion and infatuation, which which is shown by the hatred often spewed at this masterpiece. Poor Radious is left with naught, but to hunger evermore.
The team is aware of the flaws and tropes in their work, but artistic integrity has to be weighed against the harsh market. Even so, no artist wishes to make hollow trash as much as “understanders of strategy” so often may think. Behind these stories are genuine emotions, far more so than half-assed criticisms by blind followers of objectivism.
I don’t think this mod justifies an arbitrary rating of stars; it’s much better than that. It deserves a place among the highest modern philosophical works of our world. "Nietzsche, thy name is Radious."

>>147731465
Sure do.
Ya chaos has the higher tier infantry (that can never pay for itself). But Beastie Boys have missile infantry, more access to frenzy, maybe be like Picts with the whole all vanguard and they have interesting monsters with ranged attacks, access to better monsterous infantry and base flying units that should be a decent combatant.
Should be a fun shock faction. Less talking, more raiding.

Pre-historic humans had to fight the elements and had to develop the tools to create progressively more advanced tools that would eventually allow them to create spears WHILE ALSO still developing their brains and actively adapting to their environment as they left Africa.
18th century white people had already made bayonets, but you had to stick em in your gun which is fucking retarded.
I can make a bayonet with a butter knife and duct tape nigga these Europeans had entire nations of wealth and ingenuity behind them and didnt make a non-shit bayonet until way later.

Swords and hatchets hadn't completely lived out their usefulness by that time, weapons like that would have still been used in close quarters so you could say they just had bigger concerns really.

When CA's dlc plan is still unchanged we'll get Beastmen first with a mini-campaign in the Drakwald forest.
Then I guess Bretonnia and after them the Wood Elf mini-campaign in and around Athel Loren (also with Beastmen)

It's simply against the lore/rules of anformerlyestablished fantasy universe.

There's a reason VC don't have ranged units.

>>147736597
Making every faction decent/good at everything makes them just reskins of one another offering no critical thought of what are your comparative advantages over your enemy are as well as managing your weaknesses to that same faction.
And its that same idea that is every single radious unit mod. Make everyone decent at everything. Whats next imperial giants to "make up" for empire's lack of monsters?
>>147734356who should I play as
>>147737157
You have too many mounts around the empire roster to say that they don't get monsters
>>147736597
Nothing. There is nothing wrong with skeleton archers. They should be shitty to keep faction flavor, but there is nothing in lore saying SKELETONS COULD NEVER EVER TAKE A BOW AND SHOOT IT. FIGHT IN MELEE, BLOCKING, STRIKING AND DODGING - THAT'S FINE, BUT SHOOTING AN ARROW? NUH-UH.
>>147737416
Everyone has flying and monsterous mounts anon (aside dorfs), not the point of the post either.
>>147736597
Skeleton archers are property of Tomb Kings.
Do not steal.
QUICK QUESTION TOTAL WAR NERDS!
How many armies should I be fielding during the Chaos invasion ?
>>147737727
But the empire is THE decent at everything faction. Their point used to be THE COMMON MAN AGAINST ALL ODDS and using combined arms, but instead they get monster mounts as regular units instead of heroes only like if they were fucking ogre cavalry, and their top units shit over the others in the game 1v1.

>>147737979
Not sure what you are hitting at here.
I agree their base infantry is too good right now, even more so when considering their costs. Demis are supposed to be really rare but that stipulation isn't really enforced so you see them all over the place.
The other monsterous mounts are all on lords and heroes which I don't have a problem with
