>Warhammer introduction to MP Lords and Heroes pastebin.com/hPkPujTB (embed) To update: Never pick anything other than Morghur as Beastmen. Necromancer heroes are top pick right now while raise dead is still broken as fuck.
>ACTUAL Total War News If you've been living under a rock these past few months, Shortbrindal is free now.
We have battle map creating tools now. Only land battles and only for custom/custom mp games. Siege battles may be a possibility in the future but they're practically covering their ears and screeching at any mention of using modded maps to improve the campaign. UPDATE: PEOPLE FIGURED OUT HOW TO DO IT ANYWAY AND OUT OF DAMAGE CONTROL CA WILL BE ADDING OFFICIAL SUPPORT FOR ADDING CUSTOM MAPS TO THE CAMPAIGN ALONGSIDE THE BRETONNIA UPDATE
Why do you guys hate radious so much? He has been making consistently great mods since the Shogun 2 days. His mods are THE most popular mods for total war games on the entire workshop - because he gives the community quality mods that they enjoy. His mods make the game fun and enjoyable for countless subscribers, and yet all /twg/ does is shit on him with memes. I bet that if you just tried my mods once you wouldn't be so quick to trash them - they give great unit diversity and allow for the large scale battles that total war players crave

Dead men tell no tales, user.

Oh, I forgot.
Total Warhammer is currently TWELVE(12) Freedombux through the Humble Monthly service on HumbleBundle.
What the fuck is a sigmarite hero? A Warrior Priest? Knights of the Blazing Sun aren't very good.(Relatively speaking.)
Stack weapon damage on Karl and a couple of Empire Captains on pegasus and try to assassinate the enemy general at all costs. Abuse the broken lore of life to keep your army in it as long as possible.
Don't use missile units in general unless you can deal with six to eighteen zombie units appearing on top of them. (Though you can have an artillery firebase separate from the main fight with sniping great cannons if you want to try, the defence you leave with it obviously weakens your main line though, obviously).

Austin Hernandez
well it might be total war one day. It'd be shit but plenty have a hard on for it. Also as an apolitical event WWII was a humanitarian disaster and was quickly followed by catastrophes in China, Russia and so on.
Brandon Diaz
Without WW2 there would be no Total War.
Samuel Roberts
Have to wait years for a proper Chaos experience with WoC maintaining Fortresses, seizing artifacts and monoliths leading to campaign bonuses. Actually getting the Tribes to do something. Maybe one day.
Bridge, the map. Even less impressive than the cookie cutter. Bridge leading to underground cookie cutter would be alright but that map is really bad.
Jacob Gonzalez
Actually never mind it was the beastmen ambush map mod that prevented it from working
>Bridge, the map. Even less impressive than the cookie cutter. Bridge leading to underground cookie cutter would be alright but that map is really bad.
Yeah it is not super interesting, but I wanted to try it out for campaign. Not sure if I will do better with the new map though. Rip cannon towers.
Easton Diaz
>chaos wastes never ever
Jonathan Allen
So they are totally going to fill in those super obvious blank "shit will go here some day" spots to the bottom and right of the Warhammer campaign map, right
I'm still not convinced at all that they will ever add the new world
Isaac Thompson
>Settra's revenge What did Settra even do in the Sea of Chaos?

Dylan Rivera
Oh here we go again. Possibly to some degree. The fact that there is featureless land there indicates nothing. It is just there because they can't otherwise cut off the map because the camera would see an empty void otherwise.
Chaos graverobbers.
Charles White
>Rip canon towers Oh yay the map is far more interesting but now I lose a large chunk of defensive advantage thus not being too helpful (Talabheim) or I have a defensive advantage by the map literally being an uninteresting choke point that is way to damn long but is a decent fap session while the enemy takes 10 minutes walking across a bridge (Kadrin)
If this leads to sieges with both interesting maps and a defensive advantage, and a control point or 3, then life's good but in the meantime I don't think these are going to markedly improve campaign experience.
If they are throwing in chaos stunties of all factions they can at least make the great north great again and give chaos something fun to do outside burning and murdering. Let Beastmen erect Herdstones and special places in the woods and not at burnt cities, you know where Herdstones exist and we can sacrifice favor to make them special.
Sebastian Taylor
I think the naval difficulties are a setback and I think they are only just realising how the 'jigsaw expansions' is going to be difficult to work. The warhammer world is a bit of an 'all or nothing' because the lore tries to facilitate almost any eventuality so players of any faction had reasons to be somewhere doing something.
Liam Walker
There is only so much noise you can put on the map with relevance to only two or fewer factions before it starts to become an extravagant mess.
Evan Morales
sure it's fantasy but ancient Egypt never had vessels that would be capable of crossing open ocean especially in northern climates. Those famous barges were mostly river goers and maybe in the deeper parts of the Nile estuaries. TK shisp are probably magic bone ships with untiring undead oarsmen but naval tech is often forgotten.
Gabriel Garcia

I was about to make this exact post

Isaiah Ross
What a good start
Cameron Mitchell
Please add thousands of maps to the campaign as if they were procedurally generated. Thank you.
Ian Brooks
A nice shot of this beautiful map
Luis Allen
We had forts back in the day. Whats to stop Beastmen making Herdstones in the Drakwald or up in that mountainous forest in Estallia. Then you can't even burn the elf stuff for Herdstones which their stuff is in the middle of the thickest forest in the world. Beastmen aren't far off from being as boring if not for their stances. Imagine Herdstones and Chaos portals housing your infrastructure while the hordes be hordes. Chaos has places to control and has turf to be invested in, same with Beastmen.
There is a reason those campaigns suck despite really fun rosters. These ideas wouldn't crowd the map either. Beastmen would want to hide that shit in the woods and the Chaos structures are far away from the crowded map filled with things restricted to a couple races already.
Ayden Reyes
So did all that black on Darrens map mean that the same battle maps were cycled for that area?
>There are living Skeletons they could walk on the sea floor if they wanted
Holy shit, that would be an awesome naval replacement for TK.
Luke Anderson

Please stop
It's uses map seeds or whatever. Procedurally generated maps, but they will stay there so can you fight at the same location with the same battle map more than once. You can see this with the first battle you fight in any campaign(e.g Empire).

But what about the Sea People

They're ancient Americans if you ask me.

This is just as boring as river crossing battles or rome 2 fort battles(except I am losing this time of course).

I believe they were literal sea peoples as in they live below the ocean and can breathe underwater

What would be a good warhammer movie plot? Gotrek and Felix? Some silly game of thrones intrigue stuff in the Empire? With more monsters that is.
Nathaniel Wright
How would that even work?
There is no human element in Warhammer, noboy that's not just going WARWARWAR all the time
Would you make it a Starship Troopers type thing where it's about a group of soldiers?
William Williams
>that blob
shame you don't have the skyhammer
Jacob Ward
I don't know its not like I am a programmer.
But the Attila-style of hordes just kind of suck being implemented in Warhammer. Shit takes ages to develop a new army into anything cohesive and competent, you will never have anything to care about besides your petty 3-4 armies max, then when you get there, nothing to do. You are better off going into custom battles and randomly generating battles for a campaign experience. And as you might guess I'm a chaos fan, did all the chaos achievements but I really don't have any reason to play them again outside of getting a few new units from time to time. Ditto with Beastmen.
Nathan Sanders
Well that was awful. Gonna do that siege again with walls and cannon towers later.
Only had a newly confederated garrison.

I just think they are a really important part of the beastmen's roster.
As small as it is, I don't think you can afford to just ignore so many of their units.
Also, they look really good compared to the ork boar chariots
Ayden Powell

Chariots can do some serious damage after one of the newer patches. They require a lot of micro which still makes them less viable in mp though
