>IS CALL OF THE BEASTMEN WORTH BUYING? The Beastmen are a cool faction but the pack is a bit overpriced for what you get. There probably won't be a price drop for some time, so if you're impatient or really like the Beastmen then go ahead, otherwise wait it out.
>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
When Islam rose, the Byzantine Empire was reeling from a destructive war with the Sassanid Empire. This allowed the huge and fresh armies of the Rashidun Empire to expand into the neighbouring depopulated and scarcely defend Byzantine territories in the Levant, Syria and Egypt. The other territories in Africa were simply too far away and unvaluable to defend. Add into the equation that they were completely unexpecting the previously harmless Arab tribes to unite and do such a thing and it isn't much of a surprise they had such success. However note that they were never really threatened by the Arabs, only unable to defend their far-away provinces when outnumbered so heavily. Even the Turks were not capable of existentially threatening the Greeks until the Fourth Crusade. After this they were weakened irreparably and the Turks could finally finish them off.

TOMB KANGZ WHEN?
Also why does the Empire have so many mages, yet they still suck compared to elven mages.
Christian Robinson
they show the increase in stats after upgrading
Nathan Barnes
They show how the stats will change when swapping over to a chariot. So, less melee attack and defense, but a higher speed and charge bonus.
Mason Young
Variety is all they have going for them. Elves have an even greater variety that includes their own special lores while also getting bonuses to cast, but I don't trust CA to reflect superiority in casters when bray shamans can get extra magic easier than mannfred von carstein.
Nolan Campbell
January to July 2017 is the time period in which the KANGZ will be released

The Empire is the only faction that has access to all the eight core lores.

NAGASH
Cameron Green
Same pretty much with them, war with the ERE had gutted them and they where not recovered for when the mudslimes invaded, basically how they expanded so quickly is from them attacking when everybody else was weakened by fighting with others.

WoC campaign question:
Should I recruit a new horde early in the game (first 20 turns) and spam marauder units (autoresolvelol) or should I just focus on one with better units until I can recruit another legendary lord?

I honestly don't care all that much when people of different ethnicities portray historical characters in theater. It's just a play, as long as they don't try to be retarded and argue against historical facts.

Joseph Jenkins
I don't think I've EVER played a defending siege battle in a campaign.
Usually either the AI only hits settlements that just happen to not have their walls yet, or they siege forever until attrition and I can never get them to attack the walls.
Grayson Wright
i get them regularly. however i also get beastmen continuing to be powerful and a threat in the late game so i don't know what's unusual about my games.
Anthony Baker
yeah, i've had one and it was super fucking fun - ragtag bunch of orcs kicking the shit out of the dwarf king and his men. it was so tough. that was about 10 days after release, and i haven't had one since. it's so disappointing. I think if attrition was removed from sieging and you could only build 1 siege unit, the AI would always do an instant siege.
Easton Gomez
So then why aren't you already fending off 2 dwarf factions and beastmen by the time you finish off the province? Don't bullshit me.
Daniel Diaz
I usually get them when playing as VC.
Joseph Phillips
I fucking hate beastmen
Christian Williams
>2 dwarf factions attacking you by turn 5-15 How do you fuck up that badly?
>beastmen Yeah, they're a bitch, but you can easily remove them if they don't send multiple stacks for your ass.
Blake Jackson
That corruption is fucking bullshit, i'm 50 turns in and empire is already half corrupted
Jackson Howard
I just noticed that although the Beastmen's chaos hounds look awesome and different, their poison hounds are exactly the same as Warriors of Chaos. Thanks CA

those fading captcha are annoying as fuck
Adrian White
I'm convinced that the fading captchas are impossible to solve. Just use the legacy captchas.
Benjamin Gonzalez
Hopefully by the end of next month I will order the parts for my new computer. Is Rome 2 finally worth purchasing? Or should I just skip to Attila? Med2 and Rome 1 just age terribly. They are terrible games when playing them these days.
Hudson Cruz
It was turn 90 for me.
Noah Hernandez
Most of the time they work, sometimes they glitch out though.

Chaos Warriors also corrupt
Getting anti-corruption units is necessary to defeat evil

CA is basically forcing me to declare war on my allies because they're being dumb assholes
Jose Russell
Skip Rome 2, Ancient Empires will probably be out by then.
Don't talk shit about med2 and Rome 1
Jack Lee
I talk shit about them because I have played both since the day they were released and they are horribly shallow, slow games. Though Rome 1 is better in most ways except graphics and not having blood like Med2.
Thanks for the advice on Rome 2 and Attila.

Should I recruit a new lord asap in chaos campaign or just wait until I can unlock legendary lords?

You can always replace the generic lord after you unlock a legendary one.

Thomas Stewart

Jackson Wilson
I honestly had a harder time with the ERE.
The WRE is pretty easy, if you just raze all of your cities to the ground, and just stay in Italy/Northern Africa. It really fucks over the barbarians and other tribes, and gives you time to regroup.
The ERE can't really do that, and starts with like 3 hordes in their territory and war with the Sassanids, who are the other large empire.
Grayson Parker
>Orkz and Dwarves are boring because their entire campaign is fighting each other >VC campaign is boring because all you do is fight humans and wait around for your corruption to spread
Is Empire fun? What about Chaos?
I've tried 3 different campaigns, and not really had fun as any of them. The battles are great, but the campaign maps for the factions are really lacking.
Nolan Morris
I hope that if by some miracle you have children, that you outlive them.

THATS A GRUDGING
Ayden Edwards
You're going to fight Orcs and Beastmen early as Empire as well, maybe even Dwarves if you're really unlucky. Chaos is just running from 65648 Norsca stacks and eventually steamrolling everything.
Austin Gonzalez
I hope you tread on a lego.
Parker Bell
I hope Gené will actually come out, just to trigger some autists.
Jordan King
Bird boobs!
Aiden Parker
Yeah but WoC don't show up to Reikland 10 turns in with 2 half stacks. Empire needs some campaign tweaks.
Worship buildings need a price and tier re-balancing. I can't afford to build a 3000 Shrine to Shitmar in Altdorf 10 turns in that has a measly -4 to corruption.
Jeremiah Ross
>Gené
DRAGON KICK YOUR ASS INTO THE MILKY WAY
Chase Edwards
Corruption in Badlands can be a pain too and the buildings are 10k
Ryan Torres
Anyone else getting a bug after the last update with loading screens occasionally freezing? The progress bar will get about 90% full and then stop. I left the game open for an hour once to test and it never finished loading. It happens to about 10% of my loading screens for campaigns, battles, etc..kind of annoying.
Robert Morris

Ryan Campbell

Robert Perry
Does anyone else find that Archaon et al show up way too early for the Empire?
I'm rushing about trying to conquer/negotiate various factions into confederating with me, yet the chaos hordes always show up while I've often got big chunks still left to claim.
Obviously, you don't NEED the whole Empire united, I've always beat them without too many issues, but the fact all your human rivals suddenly love you when Archaon shows up and jump into your Empire feels like it's robbing me of the challenge of unifying them, plus it detracts from Chaos as some final enemy to defeat.
I mean, Chaos shows up and starts trashing shit, but it never feels bad because the Empire was already war ridden before, they're not overcoming my nice, peaceful cities, they're battering themselves against what are essentially armed camps that have been churning out a endless line of cheap cannon fodder since turn 1.
I'd like it more if you had time to unite the Empire, build some nice civil infrastructure and engage in some minor wars with the Border Princes/Dorfs/Greenskins THEN Chaos shows up and shits on everything.
As is it, Chaos is dead in what feels like mid-game, everyone human or dwarf loves me and the Empire was united by a massive diplomatic boost caused by a game mechanic, leaving me with nothing to do really.
