>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

they are pretty bad in multiplayer, but in SP they are really good, since they have no obvious weaknesses, the start can be tough on legendary since franks and langobards attack on like turn 5, but after that its a breeze

I know I'm total shit at these games, but i'm having so much trouble surviving realm divides in Shogun 2.
I have a Hojo campaign where I've become shogun and have almost a lot of provinces but the ones I got recently are all miserable fucks who are about to revolt though I'm not even taxing them.

Any strong Empire army should handle a VC stack or two with little issue. It's only when they spam 3+ it gets troublesome.
Checking Attila requirements and apparently I should be okay, but all the talk about bad optimization is making me worried. Can a 660 gtx Ti really run it decently?

>>146492293
They just announced that the second game (which acts as an expansion to the one currently one, increasing the map and adding more factions/races) is getting a content boost since the first sold so well.
Over the years they're just going to add more and more content into one big playable game. Still cheaper than tabletop.
>>146491985
>tfw in 200 hours of WH TW I have never been able to get a Heroic victory like this
I just dont understand, I could do it in Empire and sometimes Shogun, but in this game I just cant win when outnumbered.
>>146492553
t. the only actual traitor of the big three
>>146491802
I played Empire for my first campaign and almost never had any problems dealing with VC (and stacks). I'm playing VC campaign now and having problems when dealing with semi varied empire troops.
I mainly aim to kill/wound the general first, and try to not get my troops not surrounded by zombies. Basic skeletons seem to be weaker than your swordsmen/pikemen, and your cav and artillery will wreck havoc in their infantry lines.
For flying units, I use hellblaster and my flying general. Try sniping enemy lords with witchhunter accuse.
>>146491825
>It wasn't ''cheesy'', it was realistic (if you don't take into consideration the awful AI that never used its own number to its advantage or did fucktarded choices like sending his entire army inside the city before he even had secured the area by the towngate)
So what you're saying is that if you disregard the actual game then it was good and """realistic"""
Hate to say it bruv, but multiplayer is irrelevant, if sieges break the AI then sieges themselves are broken.
>>146492553
like 20 % of that was actual words the rest was gibberish.
>>146492025
well germanic roster in general is better then nordic roster (the one saxons have), but saxons still arent that bad, heroic cavalry is good melee cav and chosen warriors fight well and fight till the last man due to their insane morale value
also saxon units look really good, but aesthetics are subjective admittedly

Why do people say Gyrocoptors are bad? I'm using them in a few of my stacks right now and they absolutely fucking decimate VC, Orcs and Chaos. Just a couple of them to run down fleeing units makes it far easier to keep your lines where you want them so you aren't chasing shit down before it rallies back.

are brimstone gyrocopters better than the normal ones or nah

so far the only non-infantry thing that is good had been the organ gun

Because you literally selected that for yourself before the game even started, wise one. CA didn't make you pick legendary difficulty, and saw the wisdom in providing four other difficulties for people like you. It's entirely on you that your provinces get slammed with a permanent -8 public order, so like everyone's told you, git gud at dealing with rebellions or stay casual.

>No it doesnt before some regions rebel
You have what, 5 turns before the first region rebels? Cover up any regional food shortage, burn the fucking churches down and build Governor Palaces + Amphitheatres instead.
>to 3 different groups who come with multiple full stacks
Just sit a couple of Generals + Spearmen there. Migrating hordes can't siege for long without getting broke. I held the easternmost province in WRE with a General alone for the first 10+ turns due to this fact.
Git gud.
Having tons of fun in Warhammer right now, but contemplating on buying Attila, is it worth it?
I run Warhammer in a 750ti/ I5 3330 with no problems, should I be able to run Attila ?
how do you use blasting charges without blowing up your own units?
>people actually have problems with WRE legendary after the corruption nerf
Do bots ever attack a city with walls head-on?
Hey, while we're talking about Attila; I really like the idea of the Ostrogoths. They have interesting troops on their own and I love being able to get Roman units.
I've heard Spain is ideal for migrating, but I don't want to play a whole campaign on easy mode and get burnt out on them. Illyria is too hard for me, the Huns get right on my ass and AI WRE shits out stacks, plus every migrating tribe passes through my land and raids and pillages without any consequences. Where should I go?

>>146505492
Mainland Italy or across the med and set up in Egypt.
>>146505630
That still doesn't change what I said, you can fix it with a mod, if that's not enough for you play something else or play a total conversion mod or something.
>>146505492
I always took my Ostros through the ERE, down the coast and into egypt to steal Alex. From there it's a bit of a turtle since the ERE is going to box your tiny army into the city until the sassanids wreck them, but you really don't lose much by sitting there for about 20 turns.
>>146505730
I never crossed the ocean as ostros, always the risk of a navy deciding it's convenient enough to wipe you out since you're near enough to do it. Plus showing up early at Alex doesn't make you any stronger because ERE isn't in a bunch of wars and will just push you out of anything you take.

>>146506128
ERE inevitably ends up at war with the sassanids within a few turns. It can be a rough start but it makes for an interesting campaign. I did it once and captured all of arabia / mesopotamia. Those elite pikemen you get really help against white huns when you end up fighting them.

It doesn't matter how many times you repeat yourself, it's part of the game, deal with it by either playing or fixing it or fuck off. I don't even know why I'm replying it's blatantly obvious you're braindead or baiting.
>>146504840
I understand the concept of sniping the enemy general with your free garrison cav, but how I actually carry it out when he's buried in 15 units of barbarian spears is incomprehensible to me.
>>146504578
Attila is good, it's more demanding than warhammer

>>146506359
It doesnt matter how many times you repat yourself its a shit feature that makes the campaign not fun and removing it makes the game too easy. I don't even know why I'm replying it's blatantly obvious you're braindead or baiting.
>>146504840
Is there a mod that brings corruption cap back to 90%?
>>146504840
I have problems with all campaigns because I'm really bad at Total War games, but I still enjoy them.
>>146504578
Attila's graphics and performance are worse. i5-3330 is a weakish CPU.
CA did a lot of engine optimization and even overhauled the engine from 32-bit to 64-bit. In short, this means Warhammer's performance is way better on the same hardware setup.
Attila is one of the best historical TW games but it's hard not to be spoiled by Warhammer.

>Picking not romans
Oh I played the first 300 hours as the WRE, did every single playthrough possible with them, including conversion to minor religions, burn everything settle in Britain memes and all that, but I knew what I was getting into, so I didn't complain about it
its not even that hard, all you need is 1-2 armies devoted purely to crashing rebels and you are free do just do whatever, hell as the WRE I'd always disband the stack and re-recruit it where needed to avoid marching the troops around, and because before patches roman troops were not only weak as shit, but also cost an incredible amount of money in upkeep

You literally just need to breathe to shit on a legendary campaign.
>>146507631
dumb pancake catposter
>>146507631
You what. A legendary campaign usually has very specific motions you gotta figure out and go through. It usually involves a bunch of borderline exploits.
Best Dwarf unit for crumbling Vampire Counts quickly? These units have so much sticking power, if they were any other faction I'd be winning all of these fights but because they stay around so long on 5/100 units etc. I'm struggling to clear everything up.
>>146507969
not really
Can you disable all that autosaving on a legendary campaign? Because that takes time
>>146508038
Just get Ironbreakers you dum-dum.
Also make sure to bring some thunderers to murder their Lord.
>>146508038
Units with blasting charges
Thank christ manny started off by cycle charging right in front of my thunderers
That was a butthole clencher
>>146508038
Irondrake flanks for their infantry, quarrellers for the monsters you can keep away from your back line, slayers for the ones you can't.
Slayers are significantly more effective with a runesmith babysitting them.

It will be tricky to add the wood elves without dramatically changing the lore but I can't wait.

You do have plenty of anti-large troops but you don't have the morale to withstand that charge.

Actually was kind of boring. Got rid of that mod.
Is there a mod that a) reduces player and AI movement by 10% in every territory, or b) disables Force March in enemy territory?
>>146513705
Just disable forced march entirely, never belonged in any total war game.
>>146513705
theres a mod that makes changing to forced march cost movement points, I haven't found any that describe what you are looking for
So as Chaos, how are you supposed to deal with superpowers?
The dwarves have united 90% of their potential empire by turn 120, and I literally can't go anywhere without five to seven full stacks converging on me.
There's no way for me to get around that. With the Empire, I could kite them with three stacks of Steam Tanks in battle, but there's no such option for Chaos.
>>146514123
there are none
>>146514123
>three stacks of steam tanks
wat
>>146513257
I'm still killimg the Hatakeyama, took a break to kill some other fools.
>>146514239
If the Dwarves unite, you basically can't beat them without either striking fast at unguarded settlements, or literally conquering every piece of land that isn't dwarven to raise an army.
Their armor, insanely high leadership and number of decent units make them a pain to deal with.
But steam tanks annihilate them. They can't catch up to them with anything but gyrocopters, and you can snipe their lords and kite for days.
40 steam tanks can beat 80 units of dwarves, including artillery, gryobombers and torpedoes.
It get's even better if you have generals properly specc'd for leading steam tanks.
>>146514081
>>146514040
>>146513705
Sorry meant *enemy territory
Yeah I got the one that makes it cost more to enter the stance, then gives you twice as much or whatever movement next turn.
>>146514326
Aren't you the guy playing MoS with them? They're overpowered as all hell thanks to the giga ninja combat units they get.
Is it normal for VC campaigns to take really fucking long? I'm at turn 160 and still trying to rid the map of dwarves and haven't even gotten in contact with Empire yet.
>>146514620
Yeah but I only have one unit of ninja stationed in my capital and I have no resources and no one will trade with me. Got next to no money and don't have a big enough army to take on the Ikko-Ikki and their allies to get access to the coast.
How do you use your building slots in Reikland early-game?
I'm retarded and cannot economy for shit on VH.
Can anyone explain why dogs are so lethal in this game?
I just had a pack of hounds get 102 kills. Not on crossbowmen, but on melee units. That's insane for a skirmish unit.
I saw another pack rout two units of Outriders.
>>146515167
Money.
Tailor's is priority, except in Altdorf, where you want a claypit until you find another source of clay (which won't happen for a while).
Once you've got a level two barracks in some other town in Reikland, delete the one in Altdorf to make room.
>>146514882
You were supposed to grab the one province guys around you. And why is the Oni unit sitting in the capital?
>>146513090
I have no idea what you just said, but I can't stand the game in my native language either, it's so cringey
Also the voices being in english and the text being infrenchtriggered my autism so hard, went back to english after 5 minutes
>>146515437
I didn't want to rush bumrush and a few of those guys are actually friendly with me and I felt it would be dishonorabu to attack them after trading with them.I accidentally only set up trading agreements with provinces next to me
Going to start getting more aggressive, it seems like alliances are getting ripped apart so I'm going to use the chaos.
>>146514848
How many settlements do you have?
>tfw vampires declare war and bretonnia suddenly sends 2 full stacks of knights and kick the shit out of them

I really hope it happens at some point.
>tfw you are just waiting for your neighbors to invade each other so you can slip your dick into their cities
its always a mexican standoff early game
>>146515167
I usually go for all growth buildings at first, then when I have my towns upgrading to tier 3-4, then I switch to tailors and more advanced military buildings

I don't.
>>146516048
>already
I've played 130 hours and I'm only now starting to feel the fatigue. I don't see how that constitues as "already".
>>146515167
I turn Heilmgart into my Barracks/Reiksfort town, Grunburg gets the Pasture and unique horse building, Eilhart gets a Tailor and a Tap House. All of them get a Garrison building. Every city of mine does.
Altdorf gets the Stables, Mage Conclave, Armoury, and Temple of Sigmar.
I ignore the claypits and instead either go straight for Marienburg, Wissenland, or Bastonne depending if I can't effectively sneak attack those cities.
I get my t2 Barracks up in Heilmgart asap.
>>146515347
Many thanks for the intelligent reply. I asked this several generals ago and only got memed at. 'git gud bruh xD'
How do you spec for Empire unit recruitment VH/Legendary earlygame? I always delete the infantry-chain in Altdorf as soon as I take Helmgart and rush armory, but I haven't worked out where/how to efficiently get arty, greatswords or heavy-cav in the 30 turns you need to turtle to prevent the game-over Marienburg/savage ork/Karak Norn rapetrain
>>146515167
Heilmgart: Barracks, Tailor's, Garrison
Grunburg: Pastures, Tailor's, Garrison
Eilhart: Tailor's, Reiksfort/Sigmar temple, Garrison
Altdorf: Claypit, Dock, Armoury, Colleges of Magic, Gunnery
>>146516360
You don't have to rush greatswords or artillery. You can get heavy cav from a reiksfort which you should be throwing into helmgard anyway. Arty you only really need if you're ready to go into bretonnia and WAR OF TREES their asses.
>>146516360
Confederate Wissenland so you can get Nuln. Make it your arty province since the unique building gives them experience bonus.
Cav and infantry province can just be altdorf since you get a cav experience bonus there with one of the unique buildings until you take more provinces.
>>146516360 goes for >>146515898 and >>146516246 too.
Vielen Dank, fellow Understanders.
>>146516360
cheap infantry and crossbowmen beat everything from my experience, with crossbows doing all the killing. Give all your generals honest steel to make your line robust. I just put tailors in every city for money. Middenland is great from massing spearmen and crossbowmen since they have an exp building, late game i use them for demigryphs too. Reikland is for everything else. Maurienburg is thebreadbasket.
>>146516578
Nuln's exp bonus is faction wide.
