People like to shit on Rome 2, but I still consider that Emperor's Edition with Divide et Impera is one of the finest Total War experience.

Day 212
Warhammer is still shit.

Yeah nah faggot

...

youtube.com/watch?v=KQ0_0bBARq8
buy shogun 2 its the best.

Never ever

People like to shit on games.

It's ok user, you've been shit for far more days than warhammer, so what would the problem be?

DORF WARRIORS!

SUMMON

It's amazing how ugly that UI still is.

no dlc sales, fuck off shills.

>Start up Warhams cause finally gonna start a Mousillon campaign with that nice user's overhaul for them
>Notice the faction select on grand campaign is all fucked up, most of the normal groups are now gone
>"Uh okay, well let's try anyway"
>Takes a century to load in
>Immediately, Red Duke looks weird and fucked up
>Kemmler is there
>"What's this Wight lord guy"
>Krell is suddenly around

Turns out the fucking faction unlocker had some big weird update that messed all sorts of shit up trying to make everything weird and unique. Goddammit I just wanna play the smaller groups.

just finished downloading fots, any must have mods I should have before I start to play it?

>Gobbo Archers

This makes me wanna play an Azhag game

Still better looking that Rome or Med 2.

By ze Lady!

No. FotS is pretty much perfect vanilla.

>Modder going out his way to add unnecessary small stuff to his mod even when there are better mods for said stuff.
>Whole mod becomes a mess

Every time.

>ears not visible

you just know she has those pointy welf lobes and she doesn't want her harem of magical honor-obsessed virgins to find out

It isn't though. Those games had the option for minimal UI like the first games so they weren't as offensive. Half your screen is taken up by that ugly tablet interface.

I hate the Brettonnians so much.

Dont they know they worship an elf?

What mod? I want to say Broken Crescent but it doesn't really look like it.

CA has utterly failed

...

youtu.be/B9rKokFEZTk

EB: medieval pastanigger edition

Yeah, so minimal. Fuck off

Shogun 3 when

tfw I really want this

I also want them to use something like the TWW legendary lord system with "quest" battles in it

I thought she'd be cuter desu.
What is going on in that scene?

>being this much of a retard
>he's never played rome

Is this a Bretonnian unit or a Wood elf unit?

Is this replacing the ugly damsel model?

I am trying to understand what she does in warhamms?

>conveniently forgetting that you can turn off most of the UI in R2 as well

I want something where its based on a actual character like oda like napoleon, could have all the real LL from that time.

But I don't want to play arr rook da same oily gooks!

Legendary Lord for Bretonnia. Vaguely ethereal and undying magical woman that has existed for thousands of years and is chosen by the Lady.

>conveniently forgetting hiding the UI that covers half the screen means you can't see the unit cards

First time praying Shogun2/FotS, who do I pray as /twg/

correct me but I think they completely passed up oda's time line.

A friend and me want to play coop campaign. Should we get attila or rome 2 for that?

The maze, Dolores

chosokabe then uesugi

Choose the time period you enjoy the most.

What kind of magic does she use

forgot pic

Just bought Rome 2 on Steam sale. Should I get Rome 1 too? What about Shogun, Empire, or Attila?

It only gets an extra row of cards when you're controlling armies bigger than 20 units, something that the older games didn't have to deal with, unless you're playing on some potato resolution. If you're that triggered just untick the large armies box.

Hopefully never. Unless they included part of Korea and Okinawa. Honestly East Asia could be cool.

They would need to do stylized art and stuff though. That's pretty much 90 percent of the reason S2's looks hold up to some of the newer TWs.

You should play the game first

Or I could play a TW game not designed by monkeys that doesn't make unit cards take half of the screen.

Shogun 2 is great fun and fall of the samurai is too

Why does warhammer look so bad, like really empire looks better. everything looks so muddy.
I hope they update this in the next game.

>I also want them to use something like the TWW legendary lord system with "quest" battles in it
Please kill yourself.

Feel free to play 40 units battles in R1 whenever you like user

Based

I'll feel free to play 40 unit battles in any game that supports it but Rome 2 because it's a piece of shit.

Well, I just realized the quest battle thing would make little sense(considering the circumstances of the historical battles).

Having the legendary daimyos have more character is fine though.

satsuma
chosu
tsu
saga
or tosa?

Good for you

choshu

Tosa

>empire looks better

Come on now. Empire textures are pretty bad. The faces have no emotion and so on.

Indeed, still think Shogun 2 has the best aesthetics among the newer TW games.
It's kinda shame we never got an Imjin War expansion for S2.
Oh come on, stop being such a pansy. LL system would translate just fine into a Shogun game.

Choshu for pic related

Speak English you slant-eyed Jap

>Warhammer DLC not on sale

Any mods that give the ruin dweller trait to every leader yet?

>units cards with the same size as vanilla rome means the game is bad
Is this what autism looks like?

No it wouldn't fuck off. The last think Shogun needs is more magic ability bullshit.

One thing looks certain to me: with the amount of work CA put into the magic system, it's seems unprobable they will abandon the system in the next setting.
So what will this setting be, so it can at least emulate the Warhammer magic system?

Someone reshop this to be more accurate with units and all

It would and you know it.
Hopefully when CA does the next historic title they will use the LL system from WH.

This should become a pasta.

Unit cards didn't take half the fucking screen in Rome vanilla or otherwise. Minimal UI was a setting you could toggle.

...

the ship battles look really good.

Guess I'm not buying Beastmemes.

>wait for Christmas sale for Warhammer
>hoping to nab the base game and at least some of the DLC
>Christmas sale comes around
>"25% off on base game"
>no DLC sale

F-Fine, I'll just g-go back to Attila and my Paradox games, then.

Is Age of Charlesman worth 3 buckaroos?

lay on me the dankest unit composition for Karl's new army

They stripped out the siege escalation, dynamic fire, unwalled settlement, and townsfolk mechanics from Attila to Warhammer. Even if you're memeing they'll probably reuse magic spells for things like Greek fire.

No it wouldn't it would be more pseudo RPG bullshit. At least there's already two good shogun games they can't retroactively shit up.

yes

Got it today and having lots of fun
THE
BLOOD FOR DA. BLOOD GOD
Played both and Rome 1 yesterday, the original is still superior, especially as the unit cards are all funky
I have awoken in memium

Honestly worth more than 3 bucks, so be sure to grab it.

That's a perfectly adequate corporate mindset. Don't flush spent assets down the drain. I'd be very surprised if the next setting would be something that couldn't work with LL and magic.

EVERYBODY SPAM CA ON TWITTER
MAKE DLC SALES

19 steamy wheelies that's steamtanks in the queens english

19 steam tanks, you can afford it.

is elves not having any retinue other than banners a bug, or a "feature"?

/twg/ builds an army?

Add 2 Outriders

12 Outriders (Grenade Launchers)

you almost had me going but then you miffed it

All artillery, one spearmen unit.
