To that one guy last thread who couldn't decide what game to play, I'm actually having plenty of fun playing R2 vanilla after 600 hours in Attila.

It's a fine game, and even after months (well, a year by now) of only experiencing the game as the target of derision on /twg/, I haven't had my enjoyment of the game significantly harmed.

Sure, I miss some basic features from vanilla Attila, but it's fine enough.

They generally don't waste their peasants on fighting since they have zomboids and skellingtons to do that and the peasants are better spent generating taxes.

The ruling Von Carsteins do traditionally maintain a ceremonial bodyguard of living humans.

Eh, if you have an army that requires essentially no supplies and doesn't complain about being told to be bullet catchers, bringing along some whiney peasants would just complicate things. It's not like they do the job of being cannon fodder better than the things that already died doing just that.

Coming from North Europe, what's a bit of gloom and doom if I pay half the taxes and get some blood sucked out of me once in a while? That's just donating blood for a good cause. Like a Red Cross kind of deal.

Besides, the ruling aristocracy is doing a pretty good job keeping all the filthy immigrants out.

I'd guess that Beastmen are gonna be a horde faction.

As for Wood Elves, we're pretty much gonna need to accept that they're gonna be willing to go out of Athel Loren if they're gonna be a faction at all.

Maybe have a thing where they can only conquer adjacent territory and that once they capture a region they it becomes overgrown with trees, so their win state is making the entire map Athel Loren.

Yeah, I'd imagine it would be something like vampire and chaos corruption except with tree growth.
Maybe you could justify it by saying that the tree spirits are really, really, REALLY mad this time and they're not going to stop until everyone is eating organic cereal and using beastmen as building material instead of wood.

First of all there is a precedence for Carthage and Rome allying during the time when Pyrrhus fought in Southern Italy and Sicily. In fact the two states had very friendly relations between the first Punic war as far as we can tell.

This is a fantasy setting so stop applying your flawed real life logic to it. Vampires and Dwarves would never ally nor would the Dwarves willingly march out to assist Vampires in battle. They literally worship their ancestors and the Vampires literally commit the greatest crime in their eyes.

You're a fucking idiot if you don't have a problem with that.

I feel bad for Egypt.

Pergamon is getting just as fucked in the north though, we took their capital, and along with defending it that wiped 3 full armies.

Ephesus is about to get fucked by two full armies and one navy, and then it'll be an easy march along the coast of Asia Minor down to take our own piece of Egypt.

>>137177464

Basically the changes stop players cheesing the AI and put more emphasis on the actual fight. Sounds fine to me, I don't see why with this game they need to follow the conventions of previous TW's.

Also people bitched about the ladders? I know video gamers are retarded mongrols but I guess I keep over estimating the TW community.

Total Wars combat is shit, and no changes to the system will fix it. The AI is gonna be retarded with spells, so you using spells will always be more effective than the ai which means they're gonna get stomped.

Ladders aren't even very effective in Total War. You could have a siege tower instead of three shitty ladders.

Playing WRE on your first go is usually an awful idea, if you don't have a solid grasp on how everything works it'll just be super frustrating.

One of the Gothic factions is usually a good way to go, you get to start out from a fairly advantageous position and you have a bunch of viable approaches.

Because he's actually quite possibly the most fucking sensible character in the entire setting.

First he got conned into raising Nagash. That's bad, but since Nagash opposed the Chaos Gods, it's not the worst thing. It was the event that basically kick started the End Times though, since Nagash being back meant even the Chaos Gods were on a timer.

However, the whole End Times proved deeply humiliating for Mannfred, as he was forced to serve Nagash and got his shit kicked in by several people (including a resurrected Vlad). He eventually snapped and sided with Chaos, stabbing Balthazar Gelt as he performed a ritual that would have quite literally saved the world.

Undead are sometimes considered to be the Daemons of Order. Undead are hugely resistant to change or mutation, and there's a reason Vlad basically got to play daemonic whack-a-mole with his army in the early stages of the End Times.

>>137189308

They restored his mind and soul, which had been hugely damaged.

Kemmler's powers are mostly his own.

That's Warhammer 40K.

Chaos Gods in Warhammer seem mostly independent.

Amusingly, Archaon thought that the rules of 40K applied, and his grand plan was that if he killed everyone, then no one could worship Chaos. Unfortunately, all killing everyone did was make Chaos bored enough to move onto a new world. Oh. And make Archaon immortal, so he gets to be the servant of the Gods (who he hates) forever.

I'm not kidding when I say that Vlad becoming Emperor a few hundred years ago would probably have been for the best. The Empire's refusal to use Necromancy is the primary reason they didn't win.

The only downside is that his vampiric nature might have left him vulnerable to Nagash.

Arkhan the Black and Vlad are possibly the two coolest characters in the setting.

Arkhan running rings around literally everyone in the first End Times book was incredible to watch, and he has the highest kill count of named characters in the entire setting. Including Kemmler, whom he killed.
