First for History Games

How's your WAAAAAGGH going, /twg/?

Is AoC worth getting or should I wait for sale?

Also I heard about a game breaking campaign bug?

Crooked Moon Goblin only faction when.

Ahh... /twg/ SUMMON THE ELECTOR COUNTS

Which is the best empire wizard?

SUMMON THE ELECTED CUNTS!

I know matched combat animations have been removed, but are there still kill scenes, aside from the few I've seen Lords do on large units?

Anyone have any whether it killmoves?

Have only seen this one.

I AM PRINCE

AND EMPEROR

Why is Grimgor so insistent that people say his name?

Same. I was hoping there would be a few more at least. Oh well.

I CAN'T EVEN DESCRIBE HOW INFURIATING THIS THIS.
Why are the warriors of chaos such massive cowards?!

Is there a solid way to quickly heal Kholek when I'm playing as Chaos? He took a ton of damage in my last fight and it says it'll take 9 turns of sitting here encamped to fully heal him.

I AM PRINCE AND EMPARAH

KARL FRANZ x EMANUELLE WHEN?

They all have some nice stuff. Bright wizards are somewha weaker because damage spells are currenly UP when playing at large or ultra unit sizes.

Celestials and Light wiards both have some great buffs and hexes though, though Light wizards need to get a fair few levels before they really get good. Then they're crazy however - Pha's protection, timewarp, makign units unbreakable and snaring enemy units are all really good when you use them well. Nothing funnier than stopping a big cavalry charge dead in its tracks right before it hits your lines by throwing Net of Amtyok on the lead unit.

Anyone think they will be lazy with blood and gore?

Humans and dwarfs obviously have red blood but do you think they will make skeletons bleed? What color blood do orcs and chaos warriors have?

no army painter bit of a fuck up

Best battle I've had so far. Those Dwarfs have earned a round of ale.

Red for Orcs and Chaos Warriors.

Holy shit Kholek does a lot of damage, well thats all the major combat lords, Only Kholek Suneater and Mannfred on an undead dragon manage to beat Grimgor. Archaon did by far the least damage of all the lords

How do I deal with cavalry as dwarf?

my kholek has a weapon damage of 850 when i buff him

>tfw Altdorf is in ruins

I DO NOT CONSENT

Why does Karl say this

Strong norscan women tries to rape him.

What were they thinking with these sieges? They're even easier to exploit now.

So, the Fren- err, the Bretons conquered Helmgast from the Empire Secessionist. What do I do?

Any ETA on the minor faction mod?

When Emanuelle can keep away from the workshop for more than one day straight.

What building do you need to produce beer so I can get the produce x amount if beers a turn as dwarves?

Restart.

There are no point expanding north unless you play chaos

>endless northmen doomstack

>Both my LLs assasinated in a single turn

Almost made me drop this campaign, but I'll see if I can salvage things.

>attacking in a siege battle
>i have 8 archer units
>walls do nothing

gg no re

Dork elves when

>Expanding into the Chaos Wastes
For what reason?

Everyone wants his royal seed.

Is there a way to make flying units land and walk?

spoopy

anyone want to see any other Legendary Lord match ups?

steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=692003606

What do you guys think of these mods?

Not even Chaos Wastes just north empire and Kislev.

I enjoyed one campaign of it. Not enough to keep my interested in playing a second time, or even a different faction.

I'd suggest waiting for a sale if you can. You're not missing out on anything.

Don't know about any bug.

What do orcs call other races?
I know:
stunties = dwarfs
humies = humans
gobbos = goblins
but nothing beyond that

Makes sense for the empire to have those, for the rest it kinda looks silly

>playing against mortars as vampire counts

Charge order my skellies, close my eyes and only open them when I start hearing close combat sounds

Can you replace the regular Empires swordsman with greatswords? Idk how much the shields actually do against enemy missiles if the unit has decent armor.

They are good, though I don't like the vampire counts one. The lord resize mod is a must for this one.

Does anyone have the link to the mega folder with a bunch of warhammer literature that was floating around? I want to read these gotrek and Felix books everyone goes on about. Aside from those what are some other worthwhile warhammer fantasy books? I've only ever read 40k stuff and those can be extremely hit or miss in terms of quality.

I can't wait to have these badboys in game and be total shit like all the other monsters which look impressive and barely kill more than a unit of regular missiles.

call me when i get my skeleton musicians

The fuck does this even mean

mediafire.com/folder/2qbp22o8ch8qc/Warhammer_Fantasy_Battles

Check out the army books while you're at it, family

I like it.
It is fully compatible with the armored empire units mod and the reskins for empire units as well

>Worrying about casualties to expendable corpses

Why.

...

Same. Tomb kings are my favorite faction from an aesthetic standpoint.

MEGA folder?

>End up making a dwarf vassal in the east
>They are at war with all other dwarves and Orks
>End up becoming my biggest ally, together we crush all other orks and dwarves
>The time is nigh when I will have to crush them under the might of Grimgor
Feelsbadman

I have done a greatdishonor to other Orks by making friends with the enemy

On the bright side, I kinda feel like they are Rome and I'm the Gauls but kinda with reverse power levels.

post the rarest achievements you've got so far

Longbeards, quarrelers, and your choice of a couple arty are all I used in my campaign.

Many of the units have charge resistance, so check that. I know longbeards do. Bring 8 or so quarrelers and you will wreck most of the cav you face. 90% of the time the cav comes around your flank, so park 4 or so on each side, angled sideways compared to your front-line, with some infantry support. Cav will have a tough time hurting your infantry enough before dying.

Then your quarrelers can wreck whatever monstrous units have arrived.

Slaves to Darkness and The Lost and the Damned are great fluff books.

GOTREK & FELIX DLC WHEN

It just looks bad. I know they are easily replaceable.

>Necromancers leading units into combat

The whole point of becoming a Necromancer is to try and cheat death and become immortal, plus they're all physically frail old men, they're not going to be leading their meatless shields into battle, pic related is their whole deal.

Other than that, it's fine.

WHY DOES HE WANT TO SUMMON THE ELECTOR COUNTS??

So all of the "fantasy" units are junk right? Multiplayer will just boil down to good ol hammer and anvil with heavy cav and heavy infantry?

bonies - VC
rotties - Chaos

Do I do it?

>Ransom, Slaughter, Devour
>Slaughter and Devour aren't the same option
You'z muckin' about

>inb4 no floppy hats mod

I don't know, I spent my Empire game at war with most of the perfidious cunts.

>No reload animations
Really pisses me off, like genuinely ruins it for me.

>that whole movie

fucking golden

nah. Floppy hats are important.

Ye, just ask them to join the confederation after you deal with vamp cunts

h-haha y-yeah man, h-h-hammer and anvil

NO.

WRONG

FLYING UNITS ARE OP

THAT IS ALL

iN ALL THE MULTIPLAYER battels I've been playing, theres one thing in common

VAMPIRE COUNTS WRECK

They fucking smash face so hard its not funny

They have monsters which are OP and FLY

They literally get a flying steamtank

The forces of man must unite to purge the foulness that lurks in this land.

Work together until you're big enough to steamroll him, then swallow his lands

no

>cast one spell on terrorgheist
>30-70% hp gone
ebin

It's basically free land once you kick Chaos' ass.

Why is everyone saying Longbeards when there's Ironbreakers?

Magic is fucking BROKEN guys, it's fucking BULLSHIT

Just versed a dude who brought Demigryphs and witch hunters and a mage and he fucking KILLED MY ARCHAON IN A COUPLE OF SHOTS, WHEN WE ENTERED MELEE, THEN HE CHARGED DEMIGRPGYS AND ROUTED MY WHOLE CHOAS ARMY

THIS IS BULLSHIT

CHAOS ARE SUPPOSSED TO BE DESTROY EMPIRE

Christ, what setting to tone down the snow? can't see fuck all.

Win 5 ambush battles during a single campaign is the third rarest apparently.

I'm sure I won four during my Orc campaign, if I'd known there was an achievement I might have gone looking for another one.

averagechaosplayer.jpg

I apologize for being a scrub, but how do I open these? I downloaded the first gotrek and Felix book on my phone and it's a .mobile. how do I open that file type?

Thanks!

>get 2 witch hunters
>literally just insta kill any hero

whats the likeliness to see rome 2 and attila remasters with that new 64 bit engine ?

>yelling angry words is actually more effective than a giant tornado of flame
I guess words can hurt.

yeah would be fucking nice but not holding out much hope

>tfw an orc faction is down to a single lord that keeps assaulting your new settlement and you can just keep feeding levels to Ungrim.

Only on turn 30 and he's swimming in shiny new items and followers.

>Play as Vampire Counts first things first
>have to toe the line between pissing Karl off/pissing the fucking dwarfs off
>Grimgor pops in occasionally with the Underway and snipes a few cities before teleporting out again
>end up getting washed away by the tides of Chaos when the invasion comes because I was in no way prepared

>Play Empire next
>ye olde total war game, but it's a lot of fun with the mythical aspect and fighting waves of orcs and zombies back to back keeping it fresh as fuck
>ally up the entire known world against Chaos and beat them
>get bored after burning down Castle Drakenhof

>Greenskins next
>HOLY FUCK THIS IS FUN
>OI LADZ LET'S DO DIS
>quest battle speeches boil down to GIT 'EM LADS
>short on cash? Burn a town
>short on boyz? enter raiding stance in your main province and recruit 9 units at once
>i am extremely euphoric as I get to see a wall of Black Orcs crash into an imperial battle line
>Grimgor is Gork and Mork incarnate, capable of just being pointed towards an enemy army and then going in with his titanic, green cock first
>ORCS ORCS ORCS ORCS

How can any one faction be this fucking based

Get something that can read ebooks. Most ebooks that aren't PDFs are MOBI or EPUB, which all ebook readers can open.

I personally use Calibre, but that might be a bit bloated if you just want something to read them with since it has a lot of other functions.

>modesty mods are released before lewd mods
I didn't know Warhammer was a game played by Christians. Then again...

Raiding your own territories to farm rebellions is useful for this too.

i used to play empire total war back in my days, is napoleon an improvement of this? or should i stay with empire?

But why
