Didn't save so I'll just have to start over again. Does Moussilon always get so strong on normal difficulty because I really didn't notice them before they invaded.
>>143707816
It's just the name that really triggers my autism. No self-respecting military unit would ever call itself Dismounted. You're either cavalry, infantry or dragoons. Fuck the bullshit hybrids. Would it really be impossible to just call them Reiksguard halberdiers?
>>143707907
>Does Moussilon always get so strong
out of my 4 playthroughs as empire mousillon

>>143706462
This unit has been with since the beginning. Sniped a lot of monsters and they are far from done.
Why is the AI always so hungry for player cock, in my dorf campaign I litteraly got orcs chill next to human armies to get to me, or wade through vampire corruption just to intercept my army.
Next campaign I play VC and both orcs and dwarfes just migrate up north to get upset at me.

Always keep 2 to 4 poison warhounds, give them the banner of swiftness, should you ever come across it, and marauders are useless for anything but being meatshields
And no matter what you want to do with your lord, invest the 4 first points in Growth (blue line)

It seems like the AI does it sometimes too. Seen a renamed Orc unit.
kholek got fucked by night goblin archers, went down so quickly.
>>143708423
I wanted to do that with the Orcs, but I didnt know where to start with names or how to keep them creative.
I may do it with the Dwarves tho, but dont know how the orcs go about naming there units.
>>143708203
>That first unit of Handgunners that marched with Franz into the depths of the Norsica

>>143708423

THORGRIM STRONK
>>143708627
Technically the steam tank is, so its the best
>>143706627
Fuck marauders the only good ones are the great weapon variant. The only redeemable things about them is that they are cheap and that they can get a good flank in because they're fast.
Above marauder tier chaos gets some of the best infantry in the game imo, abuse dat shit.
>>143708354

Just name 'em by the size of their 'gits yu stupid humie

I got a confession lads
I dont own total war and I can guarantee you I make a ton of shitposts in every iteration of the thread, spreading misniformation and claiming x faction is OP based off the youtube videos and lets plays I watch. I know enough to be a shistirrer, but not enough that I can comfortably say I would do good in the game

What do I do about this Chaos Rift?
>>143709060

I want cheap spammable ranged units to bring against the fucking Undead, crossbows are too good for them
>>143708881
What's so weird about a ramming animation.

Holy shit, this was absolutely amazing!
The Top Knotz sieged me for a couple of turns and actually attacked Barak Var! The meat grinder was absolutely radical.
>>143708957
That's almost the same Estalian borders as in my game.
>>143709207

The animation looks a bit silly, even if the concept is fine.
>>143709250

>Lord of Change keeps pushing my shit in

>>143709315
GEE MOM, HOW COME BARAK VAR GETS TWO WALLS TO SIEGE
>>143709207
Yeah but calling the whole game retarded because of that is kinda stupid. It's like that one TWC post about collapsing towers.
Dark Lands expansion when?
>>143709082
are we just gonna ignore this?
>>143709250
Here's my deployment in detail. They had 2 siege towers on the left flank so I put a mix of Longbeards and Great Weapon Dwarfs there to contain the threat. Luckily I never had to face the siege towers as they got killed mere inches away from the walls.
I was planning on using the cannons to flank the orcs when they burst through the gate but they never fired a shot at them, unfortunately. They did snipe some orcs on the top of the wall though, funnily enough.
>>143709315
Heck yeah it is! And what a fun siege it was.
>>143709189
yeah its campaign. I don't think doing the entire campaign with just night goblins is viable atm, lack of squigs and snarsnik sucks.
>>143709536

Obvoiusly depends on you anon.
If you like total war - yes, its one of the best in a long time.
If you like warhammer, again, yes, its a solid game and loyal to the lore.
I wouldn't buy on steam though, there are a few stores doing legit sales already.
>>143709713
Still going at it about those ratmen that crazy delusional old fool.
>>143709549
And this is the end result. To no one's surprise the Thunderers and the Quarellers were the absolute kings of this siege. I flanked the gates with them oh boy what carnage they delivered.
Some anon gave a tip a while back to put Miners with Charges above the walls, so I did. They instantly routed 2 Troll units that were going for the second gate.
>>143709686
In my Legendary Empire campaign they've managed to take about half of Bretonnia without Louen giving a single fuck, now I'm forced to battle them back and forth in that pass. Chaos hasn't even showed yet and I'm already experiencing some epic battles
Finally done this, I would kill the dwarfs but they are surrounding their holds with full armies now so it's just a chore.
Has anyone made an army of just mosntrous creatures for vc?
Mainline of varghulfs + terrorgheists and vargheists, crypt horrors, etc
>>143708813

I wouldn't say that. I consider Attila one of the best in a long time. Still, I really like TWW, maybe even more.
>>143709898
How did you deal with Lord of Change and what turn did the fuck show up for you?
Be careful out there anons, seems like Milan found it's way into TW:WH.Honga is a nice page.
>>143709829
Depends on what you ask probably. I have gotten a lot of success with moderate.
>>143710008
Yes, the problem with dwarf is that all their cool units, like slayers or organ guns, are really underwhelming, so you end up just using your crossbowmen and catapults.

In my VC campaign Estalia cucked Bretonnia hard and took ALL of their territory, Bretonnia literally had to run away and re-build in Middenheim at a single city (only to be destroyed by northern raiders shortly thereafter).

>>143710339
I'm hoping that CA releases a proper end times crisis with the next expansion with simply ungodly units that are unbeatable without 4-5 stack armies going at them one after another.
I want to basically have an end game where It's more a case of "how long can I last" rather then "can I win?"
>>143710483
The Border Princes, Kislev, Estalia, and Tileia all do well because they have the Empires strong ass roster.
Should I be speccing into movement and morale as grimgor?
>>143710536
He was the only army there.
I don't think he gets any support armies when you fight him as chaos.
>>143710606
>Border Princes, Kislev, Estalia, and Tileia
when do these get unique units and aesthetic?
it has been four days already and i am growing impatient
>>143710347
Hold the lines firm. Use magic on those fatties. Your greatswords should be able to keep the walls safe.
Neat. Organized. Lines.
Heroes put in work. Kill their heroes and keep your monsters away from those slayers.
>>143710606
border princes do well until end game, then the unified greenskins start blobbing and the dwarves and princes get genocided
>>143710682
spec into melee, you'll need grimgor to sponge the main orc battle force and keep your units from routing
How can vamps even compete?
>>143710592
I would prefere not to actually. It would be too stressful and I want to do other stuff that just prepare for and kill chaos every game. I want some other conflicts. The end game they have now is fine.
>>143710712
Why don't we just pull some units from Medieval 2 and give them some fluff from lore?
>>143710592
Thats my biggest problem too. Chaos isn't a threat, sure you might lose a few armies and cities. But its never "I might lose the game if I dont start doing better" and thats how it should be. Chaos should burn down everything, and I do mean everything. No leaving Kisliv or Nordland with 2 territories and just sitting raiding near Talbalcland. They should burn everything between them and Altdorf and they should have way more stacks.
>red fangs have 1 settlement left
>run at iron rock
>See Grimgor coming at them
>Sacks iron rock instead of running
>Gets massacred
So this retard sacrificed his entire army just to hit my settlement once.
>>143710763
I have yet to see Greenskins not just get fucking trounced by Dwarfs but maybe it'll be different in my Legendary campaign
>>143709708
>Chaos Dwarfs faction DLC
lol
>>143710441
You've never played Dwarfs if you are ranking them last. Between Irondrakes (the flames look so good), Ironbreakers (blasting charges) and Gyros, they are easily higher than the Bretonnia.
I'd also rate Orcs lower.
>>143710830
Would geedubs even let them? They can be incredibly petty cunts.
>>143710786
That's basically an entire army of earlygame vamp units
>>143710802
the end game right now isn't even end game, it's a mid game crisis that effectively end all ongoing rivalry and wars from then on out as world peace is established to fight chaos.
the crisis event should either happen later on or when you get to a certain size ala realm divide, right now it cuts a lot of the middle game cross-faction warfare down to the nub
>>143710712
Aughh can't come soon enough honestly. I want to play humans, but don't wanna deal with Chaos's BS. I wanna be the crusading force that saves the empire not the cuck that gets saved by Estalians.
>>143709080
>566 turns
Jesus fucking Christ anon, was this on Legendary difficulty?
Did you take like 100 turn breaks where you just did nothing but develop infrastructure and expand vampire corruption or something?
>>143710541
I'd probably enjoy it more if it played like a cooperative Bloodborne tbqh.
>>143711002
long campaign as vamps does take ages because of attritiion
>>143711002
>Did you take like 100 turn breaks where you just did nothing but develop infrastructure
it's so easy to end up doing this, which is why I stopped my Empire campaign at 80 turns after I killed off Bretonnia and had NAPs with the east.
>>143701196
A-anyone? Just please tell me how undead work.
Are there any unique buildings to improve Gyrocopter's? Like Gunbad's artillery or Karak Kadrin's Slayers.
Crossbows have a reload animation,

I'll try reload an older save and hopefully he spawns by himself
>>143710950
playing them now on veryhard, the longbeards feel really underwhelming, the thunderers just handgunners that can do some mild melee, and the cannons feel fairly unthreatening for a technology-focussed faction
everything about dwaves should make them feel unique, but instead they just feel like the mild turtle faction, like the greeks or Spartans in rome total war

>>143711134
Dunno if they are but gyros are always rubbish, even if you like multiply their damage by 100 they still suck
>>143710982
Yeah maybe moving it way later would good, but that need 4-5 stacks to fight(and lose) against god units is just stupid. Everything doesn't need to be about Chaos and the end of the world. It's total war. You change "history".
>>143711130
Its not-gold.
Yes.
Late game you'll have enough money to just spam elite units.
>>143710830
I don't think CA or GW would like that.
Although I would use it released by some unofficial means.
How does the gobbo fightiness work? Do I control the free stack that spawns or are they ai?
>>143711301
I just want a challenging end game, and I feel like after a certain point in every total war game it becomes a case of autoresolving and waiting for unrest to settle down while you continue cleaning the map.
>>143711303
Ok. Could you elaborate only on how killing your enemies/resurrecting them works and I'll fuck off? Thanks.
nth for pls fix the Empire being better at melee than Chaos ty
>>143710904
Don't remind me anon.
>>143711475
Win a big battle and turn later your spooky not-mercenary pool will get bigger. If you get one of those battle site markers like for "Heroic Victory" you'll get really good shit. VC is really strong because they are the only faction that can instantly recruit units.

When they decide to add Ogre Kingdoms, Tomb Kings, Chaos Dwarfs and in all likelihood Lizardmen. (Lizardmen exist in the Southlands and this would be a convenient way to have them be involved in the action in the Old World.)
Does anyone else have trouble with finding a fucking strategies?
All I know is have one big army run into their own big army and then flank with a small group
is there any strategy guide I can use based around actual battles?
>>143711252
The steam Gyros are fine, they do the job they are supposed to do perfectly.
The brimstone Gyros are ass and the Gyrobomber is pretty underpowered too, especially versus Vampire counts (one group of Bats will kill it).
>>143711475
Instead of global recruitment you can raise dead (don't need to be encamped)
From this you can revive the corpses of units that died in the area (doesn't even have to have been from your battle), it costs a bit of not gold but that's it
So lategame vamps are very hard to wear down because they just keep reviving entire armies after the battle
>>143711113
I got the same borders and beat the Long Victory conditions for the Vampire Counts in 350 turns, so again, I ask...
was this on Legendary difficulty? or did he/you take absolutely MASSIVELY breaks or something?
That is an absurd number of turns to get that result. Even spreading Vampiric Corruption shouldn't take that long, anon...
>>143711471
The victory conditions do make it so it ends basically after the end game(for Empire at least). Making dynamic end game threats(after the chaos invasion) might be a fun idea though. Like Orc horde from the east and skaven invasion(everywhere).

Please.
Pontus when?tfw I would actually pay 5$ for a Pontus DLC in Warhammer.
>>143711167
It will be glorious. By then I should even upgrade from my current toaster and run it at glorious 4k ultra.

It would be so surreal that everybody would probably buy it.
>>143711502
>nth for pls fix the Empire being better at melee than Chaos ty
It's fucking horseshit
They're supposed to be jack of all trades and instead they're the fucking masters of everything
Vamps and Dorfs don't even get cavalry/artillery yet they get no major advantage over the empire for this loss

Oh yeah for some reason Kislev always has a ridiculous amount of units in the raise dead pool. I guess they die by the thousands stopping chaos.
>>143710904
It's possible later on, they said 16 factions across three games which doesn't seem ambitious considering that the first game + DLC will have 7-8.
>>143710961
>>143711409
It's easy to make and share mod files, right? Don't need to use Steam workshop for everything (like every other game in existence?) Unless this game's a big cunt and does weird shit.
Is Kislev in the game? Like are they an npc faction? If so, do they have unique models?
Convince me to play Dwarves or Empire.
Chaos a shit
VC a shit
>>143711938
No unique models for now
However they will be DLC
>>143711938
Yes.
Yes.
No.
>>143711525
Thank you anon, I was actually looking for that earlier.
>>143711938
Just an empire clone with unique voices for now, but it's heavily hinted they are a future DLC
>>143711817
I just want the game to be fun and fair so that the multiplayer might have a little life instead of being dead in a month :D
Not that it doesn't fuck up the campaign too, The Empire is boring to play because your units are just better and cost less. It's the only faction that isn't really that hard on Legendary
>>143711620
>>143711892
>>143711664
Sounds cool, thank you.
>>143711971
You can blitzkrieg everyone with 19 tanks as the empire
>>143711938
Only Unique voice lines and a hidden entry in the encyclopedia. Estalia, Teilia, and Border Princes share the same lines.
>>143711971
play empire for fairly challenging early and late game
great hero
great units
great feeling of desperation when coming across monster and giant opponents
also, anyone seen the increased chaos horde mods on the workshop? are any of them any good? I'm looking for increased chaos army stacks for the warriors of chaos faction and endtimes event
>>143712032
Yeah I wanted to like the empire because of actually having to do diplomacy and all that jazz but they're so strong it really doesn't need to be used
>>143709849
But what if they are real?
>>143711637
History.
>>143711790
>I didn't even get more kills than them
Shamefur dispray.
So whatever happened to the Morion helmets from the Black Fire pass video? Do the Tileans and Estalians where them now? I don't remember seeing any Empire units wearing them in my two playthroughs.
>>143711525
man, I know nothing about Chaos Dwarfs or other Warhammer lore, but I find this pic funnier every time I see it
>playing as bretonnia
>you can make an airforce composed of pegasus knights
Im playing modded bretonnia in my next campaign
>>143711867
Well VC does get Cav, they just suck.
All of the VC units suck including their monsters. They're just big and throw units around so people get the impression that they're actually doing something(they aren't, and they die much more quickly than other monsters).
Dwarves suck but at least Hammerers and Iron Breakers are good. Gyrocopters are one of the biggest disappointments this game can offer. The other being how much Chaos underperforms for what you pay.
It all comes down to Melee Attack and Defense being worthless stats but you still have to pay for them, basically.
>>143711234
It's pretty much just popular because it's popular at this point.
>>143712119
WTF are the Bjornling doing?
>>143706416
When he summoned the elector counts.
>>143712334
>they aren't, and they die much more quickly than other monsters
Because you need to micro them out of combat to regen, if you aren't a retard they last much longer than other monsters
>>143712119
>great feeling of desperation when coming across monster and giant opponents
honestly this only happens when you're still learning and being impressed with the size of monstrous stuff.
demigryphs will straight up 1v1 any monster in the game, especially if they have halberds. it's a non issue t b h
>>143712398
I swear they do that shit every fucking campaign. It was pretty fucking annoying when they came around with their three full stacks of marauder shit.
"Dude bjorn let's go raid in the badlands that'll please the dark gods!"
>before launch, been looking forward to play empire and dwarfs the most
>not even interested in touching greenskins or chaos
>play empire day 1, don't really like it
>start new game as dwarfs, don't really like it
>start as chaos, have a blast, finish campaign
>next campaign, greenskins, have a blast, finish campaign
that was unexpected
>>143712287
Chaos dwarfs were an army of well, Chaos dwarfs. And were kind of Babylonian influenced. They weren't popular at all and were basically removed from the game as an actual faction. There's a very, very small fanbase of them remaining, but I think its a meme at this point. Either way, Chaos dwarfs as an actual army has been a long running joke.
>>143712253
>they razed Drakenhof
>THEY RAZED FUCKING DRAKENHOF
>AFTER THEY SUDDENLY BACKSTABBED ME WHILE I WAS OFF FIGHTING BRETONNIA
YOU BETTER FUCKING BELIEVE I'M GETTING MY OWN BOOK OF GRUDGES FOR THIS
AND IT WILL ONLY HAVE ONE PAGE IN IT
AND THAT PAGE WILL ONLY HAVE ONE SENTENCE ON IT
AND THAT SENTENCE WILL BE "DO NOT REST UNTIL EVERY MOTHERFUCKING LAST DWARF COWARD IS DEAD"
RACE WAR NOW GAS THE DAWI
>>143712253
Too many Vargeists, you mighta held out longer otherwise.
(Those don't do shit and they suck, the Frenzy bonus is literally 8 melee attack, which is worthless)
>>143712419
>try chaos dragon in custom battle to see how fast it can kill a unit of zombies
>it fucking died
It couldn't fucking outdamage the shitty passive heal aura of the necro, I don't even
When Dark Elves arrive, they will come with a slavery mechanic yes?
>>143712679

Dismounted shit has existed since vanilla M2
>>143712798
Youll probably be able to turn prisoners into growth
So my first Legendary empire campaign went bellies up because I conquered Brettonia in the first 70 turns and that caused everyone to hate me and for my tech/economy to be lacking due to spending all money on armies.
I thought I had to rush to conquer as much land as possible before Chaos arrived? This game has no turn limit and Chaos onky arrives once you have x number of towns? Anyone know
