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

>people wondering why beastmen before skaven or elves

It's quite simple actually

Everybody is crying that the game lacks factions, and also that their favorite army is still absent from the game.

CA is giving us Beastmen, then Wood elves, then Bretonnia, then Tomb kings

Those 4 are the least played/liked armies of Warhammer. CA is giving us those 4 first so we pay for them, not because we like them, but to make the game more varied.

If they already gave us Skaven, Lizardmen or Daemons, poeple would be "yeah, no, fuck that shitty army, I've the ones that I like"

But now, Beastmen are getting more attention than they never had before, just because it's a new race in a game that lack contents

+ By giving the favorites armies the last, we keep our eyes on the game. Nobody would give a shit about beastmen if they were the last DLC, just like what happened with the greek colony DLC for Rome II

So Tzeentch felt like fucking with you and cast an illusion spell on you that makes you looks like a deamon, then he just teleport you to the middle of Altdorf at broad daylight. How long do you survive?

To make things fair, he promised to tape it and post it on youtube so everyone can have a jolly good time, also you can take all the stuff you currently have on you.

If you cast Invocation on them twice, you effectively doubled their value. Them taking on Archaon is nothing strange.

So since some Trolls also stopped giving a fuck and just joined Orcs are there some beastmen that tag along the Orcs aswell?

Wait until you hear some feedback on it

>>148559132

Beastmen are actually pretty smart, in a feral way. Each and every one of them is born with a devotion to Chaos, so they basically never don't serve it.

Trolls often fall in line with Chaos, but they don't have the same bond so do other things as well.

Orcs are, oddly enough, one of the more multi-cultural societies. As long as you act like one of the boyz, you can more or less fit in. There are even savage human tribes in the Darklands who join WAAAGHS.

By the gods

This battle took me 5 tries and I feel no shame about savescumming
My army had already been severely decimated by two Osterland armies in the same turn (they had 8 mortar units it was horrifying) when the greenskins who had been encamped right next to the mortals for 2 turns attacked as well

Had to lure out their riders with horsemen and then attack with hidden chaoshounds, after that pick of all their archers while the pathetic rest of my army tried to hold out as long as possible
Managed to pick off their ranged units and used two packs of a few horsemen to distract their big ones and another band of savages, then charged all the rest between the two huge clusters that had formed around my already wavering infantry, that got their lord to rout

Just found out kind of a game changer for them. Instead of keeping bulwark generals (a general and an army of weak shit to just hold the line) inside your settlement...keep them right outside within enforcement distance and put them in raiding stance. Eventually their fightiness will go up to triggering a WAAGH even if they never fight anything. Then you can send the WAAAGH out to go punch things for you.

Does anyone else think there should be a building that allows you to buy/commision low tier magic items?

It seems stupid that we can't so much as make a potion of toughness or sword of striking.
>>
>>148560846
Every FreeLC lines up with the corresponding DLC that gets released at the same time.

Based on the mined db entries and the DLC schedule, it's basically confirmed that Bretonnia is lined up with the Athel Loren campaign pack, which also includes some new stuff for Beastmen.

So what magic items do you know are going to make the campaign massively easier when you get them?

For me, it's a Potion of Healing/Toughness, Seed of Rebirth and Ruby Ring of Ruin.

The first three almost double a general's effective health, while the last does so much damage over time.

A general on a griffin can deal upwards of 30 morale damage with a single charge/bloodscreech/ruby ring.

so, who are the high slavs and who are the dark slavs?

>>148568303
Usually the Tileans, Estallians, and Border Princes are all mercenary armies.

Closest thing I can think of.
>>
>>148568303

Empire uses "Free Companies" which are basically just mercenary auxiliary forces.
>>
>>148568303

The only thing I can think of off the top of my head are how the Orcs can recruit Savage Orc units if they take over the Top Knotz main settlement in the South-West corner of the Badlands.
>>
>>148568363
like a faction that uses the specialty of another race, like Nubian cavalry to improve their army instead of using roman cavalry.

Was your general actually IN the village, or standing right next to it?

Because that looks like the Grunburg Defence map, and I've never had that problem.

I also never only had a single general there, he always had some troops as well.

Even defensively fighting, a flanking fireball or Shem's Burning Gaze can do massive damage. I've seen Wizards end battles with a hundred+ kills easily.

Metal has some decent buffs and debuffs and a decent assassination spell. The armour piercing passive bonus is also pretty good if you've got Demigryphs or another general on the field, as opposed to roiling skies which is absolutely fucking useless.

Lore of Heavens has some ok buffs and increasing numbers of shitty AoE and vortex spells.

Metal is the shittiest lore because there's only 1 wizard with it on empire side and I want more of those fuckers.

Along with Campaign, Battle and Melee skill-trees unique to The Beastmen race, Beastlords also have a number of unique skill unlocks improving their melee attack, melee defence, leadership, weapon strength and missile resistance statistics, making them exceedingly powerful warriors as well as great leaders.

If it's a defensive siege, you can probably take it with one.
