gobboz

I FUCKING HATE BEASTMAN LITERALY CANCER!

BY SIGMAR, NO!

>play as khazrak
>estalians follow me deep into bretonnia
>elves come out of their forest to chase me down
>khazrak gets assassinated by an elf agent, then his replacement also gets assassinated

What the fuck happened to his game?

>bretonnian dukedom
>dukedom

lol git gud

Day 199
Warhammer is still shit.

Been going well, raze some Orc cities, use the cash to turn King's Glade into a War City

Pretty sure dukedom is a synonym for duchy

Question from last thread

Okay I keep running out of cash with how expensive these damned elf units are

Any ideas on how I can get some money to ward off the rape hordes for another turn?

>mfw neet elves are garbage

>Gobbo archers

what an ugly word

I normally go take over the broken nose and turn them in to money making outposts.
Then take over one of the other wood elf places so I can make more money.
Then I amass a big army and storm some Brettonian castles for amber to expand.

Most of the other factions are too passive to stop me.

Verdict on the Woodsluts?

Good

except the opposite of that word.

>Want to play
>Have finals so not going to play any videogames
>Should be studying but I'm shitposting instead

Worse than chaos warriors

>planting shape-shifting forest spirits amongst the court as damsels

Why

For what possible purpose would you do this?

Boris is unique but not LL

Fun and challenging, good when used right, dismiss the baddy opinions

i have never played any TW games. im not a big fan of RTS, i dislike all tge games my friends like. starcraft, advanced wars, ff tactics.

but i really like warhammer 40k table top.

will this be a waist of money for me?

awwwyis

Let's not say anything extreme here

grapevine chain combined with the wine maker building makes insane dosh. also remember to trade and get the tech for trading with non-WE races.

no

Some good units but most are bad and ineffective.

Do this
# shutdown -s -t 5

Yes. Check out the turn-based 40k games like final liberation instead.

>units in database has an extra column titled "food_cost"
what did they mean by this?

Not nearly as bad

Why would one even waste money on eternal guards or whatever they're called?

>capture a 4th rate ship
>forget to click add to fleet
>the ship just sinks
JUST, its going to be a while until I can build even a 4th rate

>merchant guild leader

do you think they'll come out of their castle to repopulate?

not a big turn based game guy either.
video game wise i mostly play world of warcraft and hearthstone. but i fucking love warhammer

If you know how to play the game and aren't a Warhammer babbie, then they're good. If Warhammer is your first game in the series, they're shit.

So you don't actually like the tabletop game then?

Poor Durthu I feel bad for him

Legacy data from older games.

see: Shogunate government type.

maybe they are gonna add a resource system (food instead of amber) to other factions?

Maybe it's a skaven mechanic where if you don't have enough food for your armies they go into a black hunger frenzy and start eating each other.

Durthu is stronk, and dryads have yet to disappoint me, even though they're weak to armor. I don't use much cavalry since I'm playing as Durthu's faction, but they're fast and trade respectably. Missile units are good. I have yet to use any elf infantry, so I can't comment on them.
Amber isn't horrendous if you play aggressively, and it's possible to take out Norn by turn 6 if they move their army away. There's almost no empire management though, since only Athel Loren provinces can be built up. Low income at first, but it snowballs once you get grape vines and port research done.

Ogres

The guy is old and bitter, and the world would probably be saved if he learned to love again. The guy is a walking tragedy.

i like tabletop games in person, like physical warhammer 40k and pathfinders

what do you think about space marines

but it was not there before user

like the videogame?? or the army?

orion:
ranged
or
melee?

the "game_expansion_key" is newly added to the db.

any anons with theories on how the expansion will work?

So you prefer kingy to kingdom?

Ranged

He's your artillery

Please don't bait the speculationfags again.

Melee, his ranged is good enough as is, and he's not fast enough to constantly be utilizing ranged attacks.

Plus you need that extra frontline boost, I stick him right in with 3 units of Shield Eternal Guards to hold the line

what a nice day to kill some otomemes

This will be a long campaign..

I refuse to play on anything easier than very hard battles tho

There is a reason that kingdom and duchy are the nouns used.
Because they sound good.

>pay 60 dollars
>this cost is justified because we added skaven lmao
>now you get to play

what mod

hmm, seems interesting

interesting, now conflicted

What happened to Estalia?

What's the point of waywatchers, again?
The waystalker is actually a pretty strong hero, but I don't see the point of waywatchers when their only special thing is the 25% AP damage buff

lmao no moneys

You're wrong though. A dukedom is an actual term. It only sounds ugly because you're not used to it.

This

>have to manual play ever early battle

Waywatchers need a buff

Deepwood Scouts are superior since they can also fire 360 degree

look at the minimap

where can I check the unit roster of the elves?

>Oh no we are getting fucked! Retreat!
>Sir the enemy is routing!
>Eheee! Jk! We are back and we will do this about three more times!

Fucking Joke

Some units are bad, some are good.
The quality of the models and animations is great in my opinion.
I hope they keep the amount and quality for following dlcs but balance them better

Minicampaign was decent, and the last battle was fun. A bit annoying running everywhere in the end to put out fires while getting enough amber though.

>whenc.totalwar.com/#/units/wh_dlc05_wef_wood_elves/
have fun

Holy fucking moley why do woodelves get so much for razing a settlement? Or is this just some mad luck and skill/tech stacking?

Because razing it means you don't get any amber.

>superior Elven intelligence
rape then genocide all elves

It's to make it tempting I guess, otherwise you'd take amber every time. Chaos and beastmemes can get even more though. Also it obviously depends on the settlement level.

>got warhammer
>read the lore
>time to play
>somehow get the urge to play the older total war games first

I'm getting the feel that if I play warhammer, I won't be able to go back. I'm a big fantasyfag too. I have tried some of the games but only like half a campaign each, I want to properly play them without them feeling like a downgrade.

What do?

But it cost under 9k to re-settle it and build both buildings back. Why would anyone want to not raze shit unless you're cock hungry for amber?

ty dude. any impressions so far?

rofl

In my opinion the games are sufficiently varied in gameplay and setting that if you won't like them after TWW you probably wouldn't like them either way.

Attila mah boi.

that battle was a triumph and now we are fighting the next one, this army is even more antiquated than the last one, with its clibanarii and heavily armoured swordsmen

Time mostly, time to build up the settlement and waiting for your army to get topped off.

Also you dont wanna do it in case of nearby enemies

So is making a Glade Lord melee any good? Seems to get some sick melee defense/attack if leveled up and geared.

the enemy organ guns force me to sacrifice some of my clibanarii in a head on charge, they rout the artillerymen, and then run away themself

minor factions revenge

So, is there any way to kill carcassone before they have a stack?

I don't think so. I've gotten them out of their castle once but they avoided my ambush and ran back on the same turn.

>History Total Wars will NEVER EVER be the mainstay of the series again

>162204506

why are you trying to start shit faggot

why can't you enjoy both types of games like a normal person

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

WOME
