LAST WARNING BUD

How long do you guys think it'll be until Charlemagne goes on 50% or more sale? 2016 summer? winter?
Also, Hegemony 3 is 35% on the steam sale right now. Check it out if you want to see what a proper supply system would be like in a wargame. Makes planning campaigns just as important, if not more than, as fighting battles.

>>123573695
Alright, I guess I'll skip the early purchase and buy the DLC in summer. I hope someone can make the new unitcards in the style of the ones in Charlemagne for the regular Attila campaign. The normal pictures look so plain...
Also, I know what you mean by Hegemony 2. It felt like a misstep compared to Hegemony 1, which felt less restrictive and less buggy. I think Hegemony 3 is definitely a step back on the right track, but it's still not a game for everyone due to higher levels of micro required. I wish more wargamers or war game developers could take more notice of it. Paradox gsg have good diplomacy features, tw has good battles, and civ has its buildings, but all of them are just so bad when it comes to waging campaigns or operations. It's just move unit from point A to point B without any real strategy or thinking involved.

Dear /twg/,
I have decided to play total war by purchasing Shogun 2 but found out there are two games.
So tell me, which one has the more different-playing/interesting factions for replayability, base shogun 2 or fall of the samurai?
>>123575273Rise of the Samurai
>>123575273
They're very different periods in history, and both are not particularly full of diversity. I'd say FotS is a bit more diverse since there's three paths to unifying Japan and two main "lines" of units (traditional and modern, although one is much better than the other)
>>123575273
>different-playing/interesting factions for replayability
Fots. No debate.
Though Shogun 2 may be easier if you're new
>>123575273
You should buy the Gold edition or whatever that comes with both, since they're both great.
Hey guys, how do you think Knights will be classed in Charlemagne?
Lancers or heavy melee cav?
>>123575494
There'll probably be both types.
does charlemagne DLC have moslem in it?
>>123575739
Full of spain
>>123575480
Sorry, I didn't know about that. I should have specified I was getting it on Steam and it doesn't have that Gold edition (I'd definitely get that one now that I know).
Anyone else autistically bothered by the portrayal of the Alans in Attila? They're just bland generic Germanics with one cataphract and one horse archer unit (that are stupidly difficult to get as horde) plus wardogs to differentiate them
>>123575417
Seriously?
>>123576585
I've been complaining about them and the entire Attila roster from fucking day 1, buddy. Don't even get me started on how much they butchered the Sassanids.
>>123576212
I think Gold edition is retail only
You can get on steam Shogun 2 complete or Fall of samurai complete, they sells separate i think
>>123576585
It is pretty dissapointing yeah
Heres a mod that replaces the germanic units if its any help
http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=495836175
>>123576858No play shogun 2 and then Fots and then maybe Rise of samurai
After a bloody battle, the haradrim capital falls to the Umbar.
GSG has a DLC mega upload for CK2 and all that: Does twg gave one for all the unit packs/factions and the like? I like having the option of variety, even if I'm not going to play all the factions.
Can we organize one?
>>123576585
>They're just bland generic Germanics
So pretty much what they were in history yes ?

>>123577002
thanks, that looks interesting
>>123577147
>>123577295
the Alans weren't even Germanic, they were Sarmatian in origin
Their horsemanship rivalled the other steppe nomads and their presence at the Battle of the Catalaunian Plains was arguably vital to the defeat of the Huns

It was 3000 vs 5000 with level 3 armor elites. And I was counting that the Mordor 20 stack next to me would help me but for some reason the game disagreed.
Desperate times require desperate measures.

3 turns later, they swept down and just fucking murdered me. I had 2 undefended cities left, so time to start over again. I'm not used to the Attila AI at all.
>>123578731
Something I read once. How is that impossible? Where are migrants going to get the numbers to be a significant portion of a society, even if they run it? Horsefuckers also did integrate other groups and tribes to increase their numbers.
>>123578167
Maybe you should take the defeat like a man and make the campaign more interesting as a result. No good campaign has nothing but victories.
>>123579036
That probably won't happen.
>>123579129
I was assuming you were referring to unsettled nomads, my mistake.
>>123579129
also forgot to mention that the Alans were one of such unsettled nomaic tribess and thus were composed pretty much entirely of purebred Sarmatians
>>123579528
Dig, that's my mistake, then. I thought Alans were settled. Kisses all around <3
>>123574603
Christopher Lee(RIP) is a direct descendant of Charlemagne and coincidentally looks remarkably like him. He released a music album entitled Charlemagne including a song called "Bloody Verdict of Verden" which details the real life massacre of pagans by Charlemagne when he was Christianizing the region.

ANy starter tips? who should I go after?
When can I expect to start training units that aren't filthy peasants?
>>123581919
I KNOW I WANT YOU
YOU KNOW YOU WANT ME
>>123583172
Starting with conquering your home province might be a good idea
After that you can get into Britain or Europe or sail around the globe and become King of Africa if that's what you fancy
If you click on the winning conditions it will tell you which areas the game would like you to conquer, you don't really need to obey that stuff but it might be a starting point to see what areas you could go after
As far units you should do research and build better buildings
>>123579039
>being bad
You are no sheikh of mine
>>123583189
"Mistah Worlwide"
>>123583172
>>123583539
Also starting tips: best I can come up with that hiring a mercenary Onaga makes sieges a lot easier, but note that they eat up billions of dollars every turn so you should really only keep them as long as you need
Research Onaga building at some point, I think it's the wood upgrade for the artisan somewhere in the military research tree
Keep an eye on sanitation, that shit is important
Good starting factions are Franks or maybe Saxons, if you get dead with Geats
that's the best I can come up with
>>123583539
>>123584123
Thanks Fellas
Yea one of the first things that happens is that my city became unsanitzed. Built a granary because it said it added to sanitation, but that didn't seem to do much. Also the first thing I did was invade Britain, is attacking the Jutes and the Danes really the best thing to do at first?
>>123585107
You can temporarily lose some sanitation due to a bad summer or winter, so it's not a huge deal to worry about.
And raiding britain is a retarded meme. Any army that can go over there and actually stay alive long enough to loot a city will eat way more than what they're worth in upkeep. You're better off conquering the baltics.
When's the first Charlemagne stream?
>>123585107
You don't HAVE to stab your Scandinavian brethren in the back if you don't want to, but getting a hold of the three cities in your area might be helpful
For example it would enable you to build a well, that gives all cities in the province bonus sanitation
>>123586834
>>123586103
I'd really rather not have to fight them, I don't think I can win. I can take those guys east of the Danes to start.
>>123586802

What's the most hand-holy faction? I need all the help I can get, apparently.
>>123593041
Haven't tried MOS, but DaC is pretty fucking good.
Can you play as Balin and retake Moria in MOS?
>>123593963
sassanids
>>123593963
Sassanids start out having won the game, their campaign is unique in that respect.
Franks are a good starting faction, you can recruit some mercenaries and take Saxon town turn 1 if you want to

What's interesting about the Jewish Himyar? I was building up my settlements and realized I should be building those militia encampments instead for unique units, but how are they any better than the other camels and shit I can get with common barracks?
>>123599229
juicy
>>123594412
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePaS6vyNfR0
yes desu
>>123596739
Terrain really helps out with that
>>123600589
Himyar Jewish melee units are good. Able to stand on their own against Cav units, meaning you don't need to bother with spears. Just use the Himyar-unit infantry and armored camel warriors and win.
Rome 2 or Atila?
I could only buy one all its sales DLC
also the Emperor edition doesnt include any DLCs right?
>>123604665
Emperor editions is basically the base game ever since the augustus update. Atilla is better than Rome 2.
>>123604665
The answer is obvious.
Just stick to the classics.
Play Shogun 2.
>>123604665
Emperor edition does not include all the DLC, I think it only gives you Augustus campaigns.
Rome 2 isn't terrible, if you like the setting you might enjoy it.
Attila is a much better game, I really enjoy it.
I feel like it's harder to get into and more complicated, that might just be me being bad though
Actually >>123605076 isn't full on memery because Shogun 2 is, if you think you like the setting, a pretty good first Total War.
It does have it's shortcomings, but it's pretty straight forward and has amazing presentation as far as visuals, music and so on go.
How does Attila compare to Rome2?
Any gameplay/mechanics improvements?
Or is it just a reskin of Rome2?
Does the politics part finally have an actual point ?
>>123606074
It is a reskin of rome 2 except with features that should have never been removed from Rome 2.
>>123606074
>Any gameplay/mechanics improvements?
Some, not a lot. Agents are still unbelievably annoying, armies are still limited, you still can't edit the campaign map, yada yada
>>123606074
It's a much better game, very good in fact
>>123606074
politics is much better with family trees and generals that don't die after a few turns. same with agents
battles are a little different. units lose and gain fatigue much quicker, and units are harder to shatter and are more likely to recover from being broken (which is an absolute pain at times).Also unit tiers are a really big thing with many factions starting with down right awful units
campaign feels very different due a number of differences. politically it feels very different due to the existence of a couple of fuck huge empires (with significant advantages in troop quality) with almost every other faction being a 1 province minor. Fertility is a new stat that effects food production, and over the game it gets progressively lower and lower (starting in the north) so migration or changing your economy mid game is important. Plus the Huns act like a mongol/timurid invasion
>>123606074
Atilla has a family tree. The horde mechanic is a pretty big deal for a lot of the factions. Politics is now just percent control you have to balance. It provides empire wide modifiers like more growth, lower taxes, increased happiness, etc.
>>123606438
>except with features that should have never been removed from Rome 2.
examples pls?
>>123606523
>units are harder to shatter and are more likely to recover from being
what i really hate in Rome2 is that melee's are over too fast, casualties are way too big, moral is way too low.
>campaign feels very different due a number of differences
for example?
>changing your economy mid game is important
how do you change economy?
>>123606470
>armies are still limited
what? sorry i played only a little with Rome2, i got fed up with it quickly
>>123607012
family trees and siege escalation to name a few.
>>123607012
>how do you change economy?
Early game you can get a lot of money off farms. When fertility drops you have to switch to farms that don't give you quite so much money. So you have to up your industry/culture money production. If the building is in the same building chain, you can convert it.
>>123607319
so there are two types of farm?
does the fertility drop stop at a point?
>>123607447
three or four types of farms depending on the faction.
>cattle
>wheat
>goat
>special one only celts can build
Fertility starts dropping at year 400, and drops again 20 years after that.
>>123607012
>campaign feels very different due a number of differences
>for example?
starting faction power balance is very different from Rome 2. In Rome 2, with the exception of the sillykids, most factions are small or moderate sized. In Attila 3 factions dominate a huge portion of the map and the rest are really small. there's very few moderate sized factions. ends up changing the way the game plays a lot
climate change
horde migration
Attila events
Razing
campaign ends up feeling very different from Rome 2
>changing your economy mid game is important
>how do you change economy?
you basically swap from high fertility based economy (farms and stuff) to low fertility based economy (pastures), and if you haven't prepared for it you will need to do re balancing of your economy to account for the food differences
After slaughtering fellow kebabs for good 50 turns Dol Amroth proves to be much harder foe. Thankfully they took my river bait and smashed their 3 generals and swan knights to my pike+ballista+river combo.
>>123607953
>Razing
what's that? sack settlement? destroy it's buildings?
are nomad hordes a serious threat?
>>123581085
Lee was directly related though, and had some sort of proof (line of succession through his mother).
>>123608905
Completely destroying the settlement. It can be resettled, but it takes a serious amount of money and men to do so.
>>123608905
settlement gets completely destroyed and the entire province takes a penalty hit. its an option when you take a settlement, or happens when you decide to abandon it. Razed settlements can be recolonized, but it costs a lot of dosh
>>123608905
forgot that how is unit balance?
i remember rome 1 barbarian invasion, roman units were too high upkeep therefore cost ineffective, this made the game difficult to WRE
>>123609440
Changes throughout the game. Rome has the superior soldiers in the early game, but not a lot of them. WRE's money issue stems from corruption and having to handle a huge amount of immigration. German early game units are horrible. But that changes as the game goes on and the germans start to become really powerful. The Huns are powerful throughout all of their tiers.
What are the best mods for Napoleon? I played LME and didn't like it.
>>123609638
hoes does WRE do in the game?
can you do something against corruption / immigration?
how do WRE troops fare in later game?
rome 1 barbarian invasion's WRE had mediocre troops with high upkeep vs armor piercing strong and cheap barbarian axeman...
i remember old TW games' corruption was if you had a lot of money you get an income penalty + bad traits for generals. how is it in Attila?
>>123610045
WRE will always suffer from constant immigration, though it has reduced public order penalties. WRE can also have governors use edicts to reduce immigration to a province. As for corruption, as you research technology, you can get some that will reduce corruption by a certain amount, though you will always top out at 95% as you increase in power, unless you get a mod to reduce it to, say, 80%.
WRE troops are good in early and late game. Good formations, good armor, but their starting cav is shit. Better for just running down archers instead.
>>123610045
WRE crumbles like a house of cards if it isn't controlled by the player. With all the germans attacking it at once and all the rebel factions popping up they don't stand much of a chance. You can combat immigration by incresing the tax rate of provinces, but it has the issue of decreasing happiness. WRE gets some really good troops late game, they have the best skirmisher unit in the game. The problem is surviving to that point. Corruption depends on a combination of your imperium, general traits, research, politics, and I think some provinces have a higher corruption than others. You lose a percent of you income from that specific province.
>>123610045
WRE has like 80% corruption even at max research levels
the icons for units and buildings look fucking retarded in the new DLC
>>123611703
>>>/gsg/
Any word on Viking factions in Charlegmane? Since theyre actually vikings now
>>123611703
I like the unit icons, but the building icons look like something out of a shitty browser game.
>>123611703
They're better than Rome 2, at least, but you would think CA would learn to not use them at all after how they were hated in Rome 2. Shogun 2's unit and building cards were alright, though.
>>123611703
I like the look of them so far. Seems like the got the Shogun 2 balance right, stylized enough to be interesting but with enough detail that you can tell what it is at a glance

Would it work with the different way war is fought today?
>>123622720
That's retarded.
You're retarded.
Not without massive changes in style that would make attaching the Total War franchise meaningless
The closest to a "manually controlled large-ish scale tactical battle" game possible set in modern times is something like Wargame, and only if the campaign has a much more detailed wargame-like (think Hearts of Iron or Gary Grigsby's War in the East or something like that.
>>123622720
No it wouldn't work
Who gave Charlemagne the right to rule? It wasn't the people.
>>123625243
i did
t. dead jew on a stick
>>123625514
it actually wasn't god?
>>123625735
Maybe it was Charlemagne himself.
>>123618992
It's purpose is to serve as a cool battle map.
>>123622720
It'd need to be men of war on the battle map. In general it wouldn't work very well.
Pardon the lack of updating. Visuals are almost done. Then it's statting. Gotta figure out why the shield's round pattern is repeating because I made 11 arabesque shield patterns but only one is showing up there. These are Khamis swordsmen replacing one of those weird Jewish named Saneghorim and Khal something (A spearmen is replacing the other, and Baltha warriors or defenders are currently Khamis axemen but I think I'll scale them back to be just armored axemen).
Thought about the Khamis spears being a'la EB2's Sabaean royals with small shield, spear and bow, but I wasn't sure about it.
>>123626193
Also the matte finish on that helmet is old - I have since fixed it but I haven't replaced the one in the pack yet so that pack one overrides it.
I also need to redo-touch up the terrible old yellow and beigey scale you see there.
Also if anyone has evidence for the himyarite masks I'll re-include them but I have not been able to find an iota of evidence for it. It'll be kept for generals because we aren't changing the Sand-kingdoms generals just yet - the team-member in charge of that is busy and I'm unfamiliar with how to do it and have plenty else to work on.
Missing shields in this case but snazzy and comfy outfits.
I need more Charlemagne information and I need it now!
gimme a hug /twg/
>>123629075
No more hugs, Will.
Hi /twg/. Any roulette's for M2TW? I can't figure out what faction I want to be for my new game.
>>123633330
Oh man. I've never seen a roulette for a TW. What couldyou do besides faction?
post battles you are proud of
> legendary rome campaign early on with some mods
> outnumbered by about 2000 barbers

> the auto resolve says theres no chance at all of winning
> the barbars opt to face me on a foggy day
i still pulled off a victory , to was phyrric, but i still won
>>123633330
drop name faggot
I need warhammer now.
>>123633558
I hope you hit the execute button anon.
Here's mine. Not much of an interesting story to it, I sent an army to Russia to help maintain relations with Turkey by conquering and giving them territory, and then this happened.

Did Attila run better than rome 2? If you had the same computer and could run rome on high, will attila run even better? Smoother? Better optimized?
>>123635798
Good, I don't have a roulette but you should play Venice.
>>123635916
a little better, but don't expect something that is highly optimized.
>>123635916
It is far worse in the optimization department even with the fact that it looks better at a given graphics level it will run worse at equivalent quality.
>>123635951
I'd be mad but I wasn't the guy with the name
>>123635916
Attila runs like shit for me compared to R2, once troops make contact the game struggles while I could easily maintain 60fps in the same situations in Rome and Shogun 2.
>>123635835
Honestly i don't really care for controlling armies larger than 20.
but I am disappointed that i won't be facing 40 units at a time.
>>123635835
>>123636548
what's this shit about
>mfw savaran cavalry
I still can't believe how fucking STUPID the etw map for Europe was
So since so much of the total war stuff is on sale right now on steam, which of the DLC's are worth getting? I have all the game asides from medieval 2. I just bought Rise of the Samurai, is buying the empires of sand dlc for attila worth it?
Also, who else is hype as fuck for Charlemagne?
>>123636668
apparently total war warhammer will have a 20 unit cap like in empire
>>123637429
>France
I'm still mad.
>tfw I find it unreasonably difficult to do things I should be doing
why
>>123635669
I meant about the game. I know that Germanocentric CA has decided to make Charlemagne white, for whatever reason.
>>123638110
I'm a bit apprehensive about the factions.I'm probably going to get memed on but I hope Byzantine Italy is playable.
>>123633558
I'll always be proud of this fight.
>>123633558
I only won because the reinforcing enemy army glitched out and didn't enter the fight until I defeated the first one.
>>123639482
>playing as geats
>finally beat the Burgundians and start taking some territory
>all of my cities are getting unhappier, one is close to rebellion
>have surplus food, none of them are in squalor
the fuck is happening
>>123626434
Hey meloncat what programs do you need for stating or AOR shit? Also how many team members are busy with school and such, enough to not be able to finish by the summer of next year?
Also idk if you saw last thread but my Celts are somewhat visible again. Though some vandals aren't now granted they were on a ship. I reinstalled Attila and used the steam version instead.
>>123640805
you can literally check
>>123640983
This doesnt tell me much, except that I was wrong and that there is 1 squalor
>>123641202
you can literally check the fucking public order modifiers you moron
>>123641202
>>123641232
forgot pic
>>123641282
what you're doing wrong is not having any public order buildings
like are you retarded
>>123641408
no point in being mad bby
the one and only public order building I am able to build is on it's way
btw any must have Attila mods?
>>123641642
the fucking uninstall wizard you piece of shit
>>123575273
Think that its on g2a.
>>123641750
holy shit anon, you okay?
>>123641882
fuck you nigger I'm not okay
but you're a dumb piece of shit, have you never played a total war game in your life
>>123641940
calm down first anon, then we'll talk some total war, okay?
My dog pissed in my bed /twg/ when I was ironically in the bathroom after I put her out. Should I stay up and play total war as I wash them or should I wash them sleep on the uncovered matress and wash them? I should note my dryer is broken so I have to hang the things to dry somewhere.
>>123642450
let it dry and drift off
>>123635916
Attila looks better and runs about the same for me. Obviously it won't run as well as Rome 2 on High because it has larger graphics requirements.
>>123641940
Calm down turbosperg.
what the best mod for medieval2/kingdoms?
Im new to this game
my criteria:
>more faction the better
>bigger map the better
>more features
>no fantasy
thanks
>>123643956
Stainless Steel sounds right up your alley.
There's a mini-mod that switches out some factions for others too.
>>123644026
Does it have Ireland? What's the point of playing it if there is no Ireland?
>>123633558
>Be the Kingdom of Harondor.
>Be an AI.
>Minding my own business.
>Suddenly, some guy called the "Player" invades my shit, sends a massive fuck off army of high ranking units against my capital.
>Shit, my general is fucked.
>mfw he sends every unit he's got into a tiny corridor.
>mfw his Mumakil go berzerk in his own lines.
>mfw I just hammer and anvil any survivors.
Good victory, fuck those Player guys.
>>123644407
You'd want the last kingdom or IB||| if you want a more expansive Ireland
>HHMUURRRGHH
>TTSSSUUUAARRGGG
What did he mean by this?
>>123633558
Crossbow guys sent one volley of bolts at the general, and managed to kill him, then it was sort of just cleanup. But still, the odds were against me as this was one of the first times I played Medieval 2.
>>123644669
It's hard to take a shit in daemonsmith armour anon, don't judge.
>>123633558
Who doesnt love fighting the dirty Turk?
>>123633558
It's nice to wreck Rome sometimes.
Where should I settle, /twg/? I can't decide.
>>123646824
Go settle the Sassanid capital.
>>123646858
I asked for somewhere to settle, anon, not to be sent on a suicide mission
>>123646901
Go settle Constantinopolis
>>123646935
actually i think i might just do that
thanks anon
>>123647038
I hope you lose
>>123647063
i hope you choke on a bag filled with my gratitude, homo
>>123647092
Yeah, well, maybe I just will you filthy barbarian
>>123647124
I SHED THE BLOOD OF THE ROMAN MEN
Any way to have your monarch as a General in Empire?
