Purged Degenerate Thread:

Peace and love

Come tah join my thread... goood ladz...

Wood Elves are fine, though Waywatchers could use a buff.

...

so it's confirmed all the anti welf players are actually just bad at the game?

>Raise dead is amazing now
>CA will inevitably nerf it to the ground

reminder to play VC before next patch

Day 200
Warhammer is still shit.

It's Belegar all over again.

>be welf
>lose to gob
>cost more than $20

nice gayme

>unlike inferior meatbags, Gelt is literally made of gold
>can be killed in 3-4 hits by any generic lord
>fireballs hit him for 40% health
What went wrong?

Pretty much, I'm guessing the idea of micromanagement is anathema to them or something.

Like who knew that the units that suck ass at prolonged engagements die when you just smash them into a mosh pit with another unit?

I don't get this. Are you being serious or just piling into the meme? Are welf really that weak, or are you just not an understander of strategy?

Plus:
> more than $20
where? The DLC cost $18, no?

>get "favorable" wood terrain
>can't see shit
>can't see a goddamn thing captain
>turn off foliage
>only the leaves disappear
>only when zoomed in really close

Why is this a thing?

Gold is a really shitty metal when it comes to actual protection. It's a soft metal that you can bend with your hands, and has a really low melting point.

Should've used steel.

Any mods that mute the GADOOOSGHSHHH every time you accept a pop up or menu item?

>there are people paying $30 to lose to goblins

>be great eagle
>high tier unit
>lose to tier 1 empire pistoliers in melee

Wood Elves are shit.

FOTS is the best TW.

>naval bombardments

Orcs a cute! CUTE!

Will the AI use regiments of renown from for example the Grim and the Grave if I'm playing as Dwarfs for example and don't own the DLC?

Fight on the edge of the woods on the campaign map so that you get the battlemaps where most of the map is open, with appropriate dots of forest for hiding. It still counts as forest.

Wood Elves is Total War Arena:the faction. Lots of running around. A lot of the new maps are really Arena like too which is neat.

Definitely cuter than those busted welf whores.

So now even fuckboy enemy chaos lords get chosen?

if you want a good idea on how you should play elves, you should try playing the elves in battlefleet gothic armada

>Mate

Total Warhammer is going 25% off this weekend.

Screencap this.

Yes. The AI will generally use all the DLC stuff even if you don't own it.

>people choosing to plat elfs

Thank you based Tree Ent, you da real mvp in defending settlements. May your leaves ever be green.

>Gobbo archers

its already 25 percent off.
that's like saying, you're retarded, screencap this. we all already know it so what's the point

Sauce

>tfw azhag is a better elf commander than the welfs

Told you ;)

How do you like my carpet, /twg/?

What the actual fuck. My army spawned ontop of a huge fucking mountain and the enemies are far down there in the distance.

Minimap also blurry, glitched wayy out

Rollan!

Take that back you slut

did you take a picture with a fucking camera

>tfw going away from my desktop computer
>Have to use my laptop
>Can't run Warhammer and the other newer total war games

Beginning of the end times patch when?

YOU TAKE THAT BACK
>tfw no glade lady waifu to make fun of your pike and shot tactics and force you to lick her feet.

>thicc
>literally a picture of an elf thin as a twig
I don't get it.

Let's see, no empire or angrund please

nigga what are you doing

>SOON

...

Kek it happened to some other guy here on /twg/. What was your campaign map location?

vaul's anvil and the settlement below it are at least bugged like this on the mini campaign
Next time take a screenshot, user

Well someone give me some damn orc tips please.

>be a thousands of years old elf
>earned a place in the honored Eternal Guard
>be trained to a level of skill that other races can barely match because of pure lifetime constraints
>bodyguard vitally important nobles on a regular basis

>lose to johnny mcconscript the inbred imperial farmboy and his spear he was handed half an hour ago

What did CA mean by this?

meme that fedoras spout anytime they want to justify their fetish for overweight landwhales without looking too depraved.

Yeah, I know. That bitch is basically a skeleton though.

tits and hips, what are you gay

This. Fell bats can be thrown into melee with ranged units and often win, or at least hold them up are stop them firing, without needing any clever "micro" or whatever. And fell bats are widely considered to be shit.

>and force you to lick her feet.

unf

Encircling Torgovann on the Wood Elf special campaign, the red welf faction directly to the left of start area. Encircling then waiting for them to attack instead.

Happened again now..

that is pretty thicc for a welf though.

humans are just born better. A thousand years training for an elf equals a 16 year old hillbilly with a pitchfork.

Are they shit? Wolves and bats are basically my hammer to shitty skeleton zombie anvil early game.

Elves aren't special in Warhammer.

Hips that you can't see in that picture? Wew.

Is this the birth of an epic new meme?

How do I fuck up taking pics twice? Just rotate and look at that

finally an Australia battle map

duuuuUUUDE, STOP

yes they are though
an Empire spearman has a weaponskill (WS) of 3 on the tabletop
WS is measured from 1-10
A wood elf Eternal Guard has a WS of 5 which is excellent for rank-n-file
5 which is much higher than 3

so the free patch puts the elves into the game right, you just need to buy the dlc to play as them?

>Well?

>They aren't going to lick themselves!

SIXTY NIGGERS I JUST UPGRADED THE TREE ONCE
ONCE

WHY THE FUCK ARE BESTIGORS SHITTING EVERYWHERE NOW GODDAMN

it is acceptable

So I assume the steam groups are ded?

Also as a side note does quick battle actually work in Warhams?

the fuck are you doing

Yeah, it's been like that for a while now.

>typical welf player

>elves aren't special in warhammer

>numerically few but really elite on the tabletop
>special rules out the ass to simulate how naturally superior they are to other races
>high elves are so fast they flat out have an army wide rule that lets them always strike first in combat

>eternal guard described as a honored elite unit that guards the borders of the forest during winter, and are quoted as being "a bristling shieldwall of spear points, of which even the hardiest foes would struggle to conquer."
>loses 1v1 against imperial spearmen

yeah I just neglect the tree until im ready for poopoo peepee

...

kill yourselves

correct
Upgrade when you can prep, also set up ambushes. There's like only 2 entrances to that province and make friends with the ice elves and set a tribe as a war target.
They usually wipe out atleast one stack

Better carpet

>all this butthurt about Wood Elves being bad
>watch Legend of Total War play the minicampaign on legendary
>he wrecks everyone's shit with nothing but Glade Guard + Eternal Guard spam

what went wrong with /twg/'s userbase? I mean this literally, what went wrong in your development process?

This is the battle that starts ontop of a huge ass mountain top. If i attack, then its fine. If i encircle, then it bugs out

If you want to use tabletop values, weaponskill is the most irrelevant stat in the entire game in Warhammer.

The point is in the chaos of battle your superior skill often gets overshadowed by some bad luck, or maybe t. Human's buddy stabs you while you're focused on the dude in front of you.

Quick battles work, just be ready for meme armies.

Interesting...

...

The mini-campaign is super, super easy user

The AI can't wood elf army comp worth shit, and you get bonuses out the ass against beastmen

the fuck are you doing m8
F12 or print screen

it would be really awesome if occupied couronne let you impersonate the lady or something and gave you access to brettonian units or a brettonian waaaagh

I'm on PS4

fucking goblin archers

HA!

...

There's a dummied out command to give ember to WElfs , I just havent figured out how to make it work yet (pretty sure I'm missing something)

t. footfag in denial.

>CA actually cripples armies because they're so afraid of making a faction good and unique

The maze, Dolores. Tell me about it

Thanks CA
