>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

All these mad greeks

I have a degree at the Pontus University of War. My degree is in advanced hammer and anvil tactics. If you can't see how that makes me a better general than you, let me spell it out. Don't get too ANTIUCkd up now ;).

The very best fighting is done with fresh shock cavalryman. Fresh lances. Fresh horses. Let me ask you- where do horses breed? Where are lances made? Where do men train? Where is armour made? In the foundries. In the fire. under the watch of a skilled general. They are effected by the stregist and, therefore, so is the eventual killing poterntial of the cavalryman. Have you ever charged into a unit and it held firm? That has never happened to me. I can identify firm infantry just by looking at a formation because I have studied the effects of morale for my entire life. I can identify over 90 kinds of military training programs in academies and colleges. I can virtually guarentee that the majority of you are charging pikeman which have 'spear wall', a deadly tactic from the times of great Makedonian Cuckening that causes pikeman to take on 'defensible formations'. You don't understand war so you can't identify it, and your heavy cavalry tactics work like fucking shit as a result.

So go ahead. Tell us again how Hammer and Anvil isn't the best tactic for fighting wars. Throw another mediocre light cavalry in that stack; Toss another horse archer into your formation. Meanwhile I will be using the highest quality lancers from the worlds best training facilities.

Oh, and I work for a major mercenary company identifying formations for their charges. So I get paid handsomely. So nobody on this forum has any dirt on me. I could buy and sell pretty much everyone here because of the way my trve vnderstanding of strategy effects my battles.

Posting this again since last thread died.

Has anyone tested out the Chosen units since the patch?

Im not sure it is a bug but they are unbreakable, i tried them against greatswords and their morale never broke even at 3 men which caused them to then beat the greatswords.

Same for Chosen with halberds vs Demigryphs, the chosen won because they could not be broken.

Is this a bug it does not state they are immune to psychology or unbreakable.

This. Motherfuckers out there today actually think that a sword can pierce through plate armor. This never happens, the human framce cannot generate enough force to allow this to happen. You either had to use a polaxe or some other two-handed affair like a halberd to be able to get enough power into a point to break through.

Since were on the subject, I also hate how bow and arrows are treated as just medieval guns. There's a reason you switched to primitive shitty muskets instead of bows because the actual kninetic force of gunpowder weapons are incredible to what you can get from bows.

That, and it takes a fuckload less time to teach somebody to load, point, and fire a musket in time with his buddies than to do the same plus firing for range plus the physical conditioning required for archers.

Not him, but you literally need more troops.

Blood Knights aren't Demi's. They're meant for anti-large engagements, and while they're adequate at anything else, they're not the rip and tear demigryphs.

Basically, drop the blood knights, buy some Cairn Wraiths and a Necromancer, and run around in a death star spamming invocation of Nehek.

Not balanced right, they may get fixed but the only total war games to ever end up decently balanced where rome: BI and shogun 2.

Blood Knights have quite poor damage for their cost, except for their anti-large.

They normally beat both varieties of Demi's though only just in the case of Halberds.

However, their low armour-piercing damage means that they are not that effective against tough infantry, which is all that dwarves are. They can against high-tier dwarves by cycle-charging, but it's close and that's not always possible.

They also cost 1700 in multiplayer, which is a whole lot.

It won't export the changes to binary with BOB. BOB fails to launch but leaves frozen processes in task manager.

And just for example - I just uninstalled the assembly kit entirely, deleted any remnant files that got left in the game's directory, and reinstalled a completely fresh assembly kit.

Even if I try to export to binary with NO changes whatsoever, it does the exact same thing, it just freezes. So it's no any changes that I've made, it's either my computer randomly not liking BOB or something in BOB is broken

>>147219579
I use PFM for most stuff, but descriptions and the like are easier in the assembly kit because it just automatically creates the text tiles and PFM lists a lot of tabs as "unknown"

Well, they ARE a part of Chaos in the lore ...

Vanguard deployment will probably be there + Bray-shamans with unit buffs like Speed and Bloodlust

A unit of dragon ogres can take out a unit of black orcs without losing a single dragon ogre

A shaggoth can 2v1 giants

They are fast, hit hard, and are now resistant to arrows and have been buffed even more.

Also kholek is the single most powerfull thing in the game and Krakanrok the black Is the single most powerfull physical entity In the warhammer fb universe.

Also they won in lore because the dragon ogres were fighting the dragons (back when the dragons were relevant), the old ones, and the obese mongs you mentioned.

It was the era of getting shot no matter what you did, so it´s pretty normal that you take casualties. Specially if you´re outnumbered.

We can´t tell you much more without knowing how the map and the army composition was.

In general, numerical advantage is a HUGE thing in this time period. Battles are won by having more guys shooting than the enemy. Spread your lines (one line formations shoot best, two line formations shoot best while not taking fucking forever to turn and they also form a square faster, should enemy cavalry show up for a charge), flank, try to get the first volley (aka wait for them to get in range, standing and shooting is faster than stopping the march, standing and shooting). Terrain elevation is a very big advantage.

The key to win these battles with minimum casualties is to get numeric advantage. You might be outnumbered, but still you can achieve local advantage through maneuvering (ex.: some troops hidden at the border of a forest hold off a bigger number of enemies on open terrain while the bulk of your army takes care of an enemy flank).

That, and proper unit composition, of course. Most of the time you want mostly line infantry, but some cavalry is really important and a couple units of skirmishers (less men = less guns = destroyed by line infantry, but more range = can kite and can hide in forests = can murderize units before anyone knows what´s going on), because their range is just what you need to dislodge enemy units that have taken an advantageous position and will destroy you if you try a direct assault (like at the top of a high and steep hill). Either they leave or they´ll be picked off by the skirmishers without being able to fight back.

Some artillery is also pretty nice, but don´t overdo it. It´s too expensive and vulnerable for quick battles, though it´ll shred the enemy if the battle stalls.
