TWW might have dragons, but does it have dancing?

Ahhh Wood Elves… the eternal meme

>Barbarian Edition
Here come dat boii

>Gobbo archers

So are they ever going to fix Chaos?

If you play a multiplayer elf campaign the Durthu player gets massive penalties for having "lost the Oak of Ages", to the point where you are unable to do anything

Bravo CA

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
THE FRENCH

Yes

RATS AND LIZARDS WHEN

Playing a post welves empire campaign, hit a game breaking bug. Chaos events won't advance, archeon won't show up, and I'm getting the doom ride event every turn.

Anyone else experiencing this?

If you burn down the oak, does the Welf A.I get a big penalty?

o shit waddup

Check yer mods

anime!

...

Shit

How are people finding the Wood Elves?

I just beat the mini campaign as Orion, that last quest battle was probably the coolest battle i have played in TWW yet.

So far i am really enjoying the Elves, i have yet to try the woodland units and have focused on using their archers.

They do lack any solid infantry unless you spec red melee or use the seats on the council.

Made the mistake of getting non-aggression pacts and trade agreements with other wood elf factions last game. Most boring campaign I've played, it was the longbeards faction pack all over again, all my neighbours (including bretonnians) just sitting there with a full stack, a big garrison, and a web of alliances while I only had money for one stack. Didn't realise the oak needs to be level 3 to even be able to confederate, what a stupid fucking design choice that was.

Will try again tomorrow, this time looking to take athel loren by force, maybe that'll actually be remotely interesting to play. I actually really enjoy the wood elves in battle, but god they're awful in the grand campaign if you don't go all out to make your own entertainment.

what setting to reduce so my non-toaster computer isn't a piece of shit if I browse while the campaign map is loaded?

>He knew how to deal with WElves even before they were released

Bless the Gobbo

>Gobbo archers

Fucking garbage faction that's not fun to play at all. Have fun chasing over the map recolonising your shitty outposts because beastmen factions keep respawning with armies full of minotaurs and cygors.

Is FOTS naval game meant to be so bullshit?

The UI doesn't even tell when a ship is in range of firing, and the attack AI seems happy to attack one ship by lazily put-putting forward at an angle to the enemy ship, regardless that it's moving into the guns of the enemy ships parallel to the one it's targetting.

>131 speed

That's why TWW removed them. Thank you based CA

I like them, they're quite different and you can take your campaign in pretty much any direction you like. Haven't really fought any very high tier stuff like chosen, but the roster has been fun so far. Treemen are impressively tanky, waystalkers and branchwraiths are both good heroes, the new lores are fun and effective, love the pendulum.
I started as Orion and went south, but I think next time I'm just going to sail to Norsca as Durthu and remove those fuck nuggets.

>tfw you will never motorboat those delicious spellsinger titties

just rush ironclad in FOTS
no other way

>balloon tits
>no hips
>twig arms
Just terrible.

what
FOTS naval battles are easy as fuck
>The UI doesn't even tell when a ship is in range of firing
it literally does

you do realize that upgrading the oak spawns them, right?

HOW DO I STOP A FUCKING ARMY IN MY TERRITORY THAT IS ALWAYS JUST OUT OF MY REACH GOD DAMN FUCK THIS BULLSHIT

>Send agent
>Block army
>Profit

>no hips
user you're wrong my man
>twig arms
her arms are pretty normal, unless you like landwhales or are a musclegirl loving faggot

Right you are. It was the "uncivilized north" mod. Now I have to restart the run.

ambush infront of empty settlement/small army and hope he takes the bait

Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding

STOP SAYING AGENTS EVERYONE I'M EARLY GAME GREENSKINS I HAVE NO AGENTS

Then get some agents

They're magicians, don't need a sword-using-looking arm to look attractive.

Get sum agents skrub

Get some agents

you just need lvl 2 Boss Tent to get a gobbo boss, you have NO excuse

Lel now try doing it on legendary so you can't savescum

I did it on the first try

I'm talking about the random beastman factions that respawn. Fucking idiot, I haven't touched the oak.

why is that frog so angry

thats a turtle u idiot

I posted a few days ago about 16th century colonial mods for Med2, and have found there's only two real options
Is War for the Colonies any good, or does the addition of new European powers at the beginning just shit things up?
Is Expanded Americas anything more than just a later-era grand campaign with more factions and a more accurate North/South America?
Should I just go vanilla America campaign for Christo et Hispania?

>People complained Beastmen hordes always being wiped off the map by turn 5
>CA fixes that

>People still complain

What's the best unit type to hold the line while you flank the enemy in Shogun 2? Katana guys? Spear guys?

Fun. Running your archers around a blob of beastmen(busy fighting your eternal guard) and then just execute the blob with your arrows is fun.

Also Wild Riders.

why is that turtle so angry

FOTS naval battes can be a bloodbath for both sides whatever the odds.

yari ashigaru in spear wall

Man Beastmen have turned to fucking monster goats. They last alot longer, and cause actual Chaos.

>when someone says wood elf archers are shit
say that to my face lumberfoots

That's a snake, moron.

>the hair-up version made it into the game
CA has shit taste desu, the one with hair down was better

is the archer hero even good? seems to do SHIT

Does anyone happen to have a leftover 20% discount code from the White Dwarf thing?

I'm looking to buy TW:W for a friend as a gift and hey, the 20% on top of the current 25% is dope, lets me buy him a DLC on top

Oh right, they have that buggy as fuck thing like pikes in Medieval 2, where the enemy is kept at a distance and can only engage 1v1?

>The AI will never use yari wall against you

I just want some comfy japanese pike battles.

if you mean they are OP for their price then yes
atleast yari spam being OP is lore friendly

shoo shoo cat demon

Well, you ain't fighting any goblin archers
sorry

She is shit.

Shitters always fucking pick her

DWARF BEST

wat game

>Vermintide doesnt have any Goblin Archers in it

She's pretty lucky I gotta say

Hey Hey

...

vermintide

Watched Arch review of new WE DLC.

Did he actually even play the game?

Main complaints are
>Wood elves are hard capped at 4000 gold income because only the 4 WE territories give gold
>Two factions play the same and you can get the same units mid game.
>Only able to field 3-4 armies max

He is on turn 56 and has 3 settlements, WOOWOWOW.

>Shitters always fucking pick her
I know I was making a joke desu
Bardin is a god of Skavenslaying

>That filename

What is this, a webm for gobbos?

LIKE OKRI AND THAT GIANT

I do not compreend

he is a radious shitter
stopped watching his gameplay videos ever since

he even choose to play rome 2 with radious instead of something like DEI
almost puked

>Arch doesn't know what he's talking about
Wow gee whiz nobody saw that coming

He was still very postive user. A rare feat for Arch.

what's the best kind of archer and why is it all of them for RGB colors?

Considering he never plays the game without Radious + extra low upkeep mod I imagine he'll find it slow yes

goblin archers

Two-Handed Hammer Markus Kruber is best girl

I guess it's easier when you only have to shoot shitty rats

Say that to my face after fighting Goblin Archers

...

>reviving and not blocking
sure is easy mode in here

I've got two empire armies parked outside of Athel Loren after the idiot elves declared war on me. I wiped out their armies. Should I:

Make peace and leave them be
Make peace and come back with a pure gunpowder stack to go fortunate son on their hippie asses
Burn it all now

What should I do /twg/?

Does any mod manager exist for TW: Warhammer? Being only able to see 3 mods at a time is clunky as fuck

Why the fuck are these amusing to me

Death

it's too long to be bigger, otherwise the quality would be even lower than it already is

tfw /vtg/ didn't last

yes

Quarrelers.

To be fair, the game itself didn't last.
