>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 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 not 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 engage enemies they get close to while maintaining formation
Warhammer fantasy literature because I forgot to add it to the OP but this is fine I guess.

It's not going to be Medieval 3, that's for certain.
I am hoping for a Victoria or empire type game since CA has finally gotten good at naval and gun mechanics.
and the tradition system would work well for it.
Bentley Hughes
Medieval 3 is a meme answer.
Anthony Lee
It may be Pike and Shot judging from some shit /twg/ uncovered a few months ago It might also be TW:China since it's admittedly actually fuckhuge with plenty of diversity between factions inb4 pasta, or something like TW: Khan of Khans so they can rip off Attila. Either way it's supposed to require new research so it's almost certainly not a repeat title.
I can't be doing it right in Fall of the Samurai. I've never gotten my shit kicked as hard as I am right now in a Total War game.

Move an army to forest to make them ambush. Meet them in the field, don't let them attack your castles. If you can't do that, well, you'll have to restart.

Victorian Total war would be great, they've already proven they can make it work with Fall of the Samurai.
The only thing is it would necessitate a whole world map, or at least most of it.
Cameron King
I would prefer an Empire 2 that stretched further into the Victorian era.
Andrew Jackson
>just spent 2 hours making changings to AoC instead of vanilla Attila

Easton Torres
I want an empire 2 with 40 unit armies. I really like the setting for empire but the whole game just feels heavy and clunky in every single aspect compared to Napoleon but that game doesn't have the scale.
Empire is unironically one of my favourite tw games, even with all its bugs, and shitty AI and loading times
I played it for quite a bit, and would have played it even more if imperial splendor team didn't ruin their mod by adding absolutely terrible lightning, seriously fuck those guys
Oliver Davis
>Victorian era Think about it Warhammer has flying units and tanks. I would kill for the next historical game to be like Victorian era start and for empire style tech research so you eventually get WW1 technology and weapons. Campaign map with the scale of Empire but the amount of settlement density of something like Attila.
Christian Morris
WW1 doesn't work with TW. I want Empire 2 that stretches into early Victorian era.

okay so if I send normal shock cavalry like reiksguard to run through enemy line they send them flying like balls but if I send in razorgor chariots with higher charge bonus nothing as comical happens do they even work or are chariots just bad at breaking the line?
Lucas Sanders
>WW1 doesn't work with TW I don't agree with this, but I do think CA would need to push the envelope for bigger armies and maps. But I would like to see stuff like creating trench lines by having a certain buildings built in settlements to connect them (fall of the samurai railroad) or some kind of army stance that blocks off a large area and forces the attacker to fight you on a special trench map.
Hunter James
it should work
are the conditions the same? chariots going up a hill or into a heavier unit?
chariots tend to go through a line, allowing them to come back around for another shot
Daniel Gomez
Chariots are just awkward and finicky like that. They can get nice impacts sometimes though.
Owen Garcia
>I don't agree with this
Well, good for you, but that doesn't change the fact that it doesn't work for WW1.

Yeah we had an expansion set in 1864 but somehow a main title couldn't pull off WW1 because (you) think the battles wouldn't work.

[sarcasm] And look how well it works now! [/sarcasm]
John Cooper
CoH already exists. This just wouldn't really work in any capacity other than trench warfare and still be even remotely similar to TW.
Hunter Miller
Napoleon works even better and takes place 5 years after the ending of empire.

>CoH Because WW2 was fought just like WW1! And we totally didn't have battles with cities in Napoleon and buildings units could enter which is totally just a CoH type thing and could never work in total war right?

Why do I love Mannfred so much? It's pretty simple when I think about it. Mannfred isn't just the best character in the Warhammer world, he might just be the greatest character of all time. Just imaging him riding through the swamps of Sylvania, the wind in his hair, his mighty steed below him. As he rides through the World's Edge Mountains, the Lahmians swoon at his very scent. They know how he smells, the essence of his smell is sold in Marienburg under the the name of "Carstein Orgasm." The very nature of Mannfred is mystery. Could he be playing a deeper game than even his creator realizes? The answer is yes, he has transcended such boundaries as the written world, and has free will to do whatever he sees fit. However, Mannfred is filled with such guile, such arcane craft that he does not even use these powers. Why, you might ask? You will never know, for the mind of the Mannfred is not one that is easily penetrated. Mannfred is such a force of nature in his realm that nothing can truly touch him, the only thing keeping him bound to the page at all is his will to exist within the preordained boundaries of his world. Mannfred is not only beyond the comprehension of us, he exists within a plane of true focus and beauty. Observe his playful smile, his gorgeous and rippling biceps, his gallant nose, and most importantly, his eyes. His eyes, like pools of saffron, provide the only glimpse into the true machinations of Mannfred. Do not stare into them. Many good men have gone mad in the attempt. Mannfred is not just a character, a formless collection of words and images, he is himself is the binding that holds the Warhammer world together. Without Mannfred, the entire Warhammer world, the entire Games Workshop as we know it crumbles. The Reik would stop flowing without Mannfred, Athel Loren would become a desolate crater, and Norsca would melt without his frosty gaze. These are just of a few of the reasons why I like Mannfred so much.
Josiah Wright
WW1 didn't see 160 men clustered together in formation when they charged the enemy. You didn't have 160 men pile into a building that wasn't significantly large. There wasn't a whole lot of urban warfare in WW1 to my knowledge.
Point is, once you don't have organized formations being utilized, it isn't really TW anymore imo.
Hunter Baker
it's between empire and rome 2 for me
the reason is because both experimented with very different shit but failed and were very unpolished or took multiple months before they were not broken piles of shit.
Isaiah Peterson
The problem with trench warfare is that trench warfare acts as a continuous battle. That's the reason why 'fronts' became a thing, the entire border of your countries are basically battlelines and "flanking" your enemy consists of punching a hole and blitzing through it.
Evan Fisher
I understand that, I'm just having trouble articulating exactly why it just doesn't really work in TW. I would be down for a campaign map game set in WW1, but you are going to have to get very creative with the battles and can't really do it like you can in TW.
Hudson White
As far as I am concerned, Total War battles simply stop working the moment formations stopped being a thing. Hell even the current system makes shit like guerilla wars hard - you either have 160 brigands in one place or you have none at all and they have to turn as a group before firing this is the one fucking thing that Waarscape has no fucking excuse for, if the longbows are in position then fucking fire who cares if two or three people are lagging behind
