>Warhammer introduction to MP Lords and Heroes pastebin.com/hPkPujTB 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
BRETONNIA IS 28TH OF FEBUARY. Louen start in Couronne Alberic start in Bordelaux Fay Enchantress start in Carcassonne Lots of new units such as grail reliquae, questing knights, squires and many more.
Looking good. Green Knight is a unique limited hero. Accumulate chivalry points to win the campaign. Decide between military and economic techs.
Isabella von Carstein(Legendary Lord) has been announced as part of the War not Peace dealio. She and Vlad have their own faction, seperate from the Mannlet.
Does anyone have a pic of the Total Warhammer Migration event window?
Any faction is fine, preferably Empire
Nathan Anderson
Rejoice! For a Knight of Bretonnia provides your shield.
Soon.
Oliver Jones
Shameless heroic-posting, i'm proud of this one. Stillicho a best.
Colton Cruz
If this isn't to shop it in a /pol/ fashion I'll be enormously disappointed.
Kevin Martinez
No, I want to change it into "Thread migration" event
Jason Walker
What is the best memes of /twg/?
Liam Rogers
BOLOGNA
Jonathan Roberts
I am indeed disappointed.
Nicholas Clark
WHEN?
Nolan Gutierrez
the maze, dolores
David Powell
Rejoice user. For a knight of bretonnia provides your shield.
Lucas Martin
His eye is still fucked up.
Zachary Miller
Seriously though. Why is this?
Bentley Garcia
They're the randumb xd team.
Zachary Bell
tombkangz with gonna stab as runnerup
Ian Ortiz
Twg has given me some oddly conflicting feelings about wanting to thrust my stake into vampire girls recently.
Also whatever happened to goth chicks?
Asher Myers
What the fuck are these bridge maps?
Does warhammer finally have those?
Because all it needs now is real sieges and I can call it the best total war game
Lucas James
For whoever was asking for the Welsh panel of that comic.
James Adams
Explain to me why this is not heroic!!!
Ryan Allen
Heroics are only for odds 5:1 I think
Actually I don't know the ratio but
>1300 vs 2000
Is very common numbers when playing something like dwarfs or wood elves
Zachary Morgan
There is nothing to be conflicted about, user.
Zachary Davis
achoo
Jayden Moore
Yes there is user.
Where do you put your stake for one because I sure know I'd love to impale her.
Nolan Fisher
Gesundheit
Nicholas Turner
Because on one side you have >2 armies, one with highly elite units who are highly ranked up and with a powerful hero
and on the other >Flagellents one of the worst units in the game, along with a few RoR and ranged units who will survive 5 seconds against all that cav
The power bar would have been in your favor overwhelmingly if it didn't overestimate RoR
Ryder Nelson
>bretonnia a paradoy of a parody of feudal france >has more sophisticated infrastructure than the empire
2 economic buildings, and 2 support buildings that boost income and provide other boons. along with an unknown building that presumably boosts replenishment (the one with the tinctures)
Luis Wilson
the empire is the most lacklustre faction in the game, CA doesn't give a single fuck about them even though they could have been awesome with a religion or pope like electoral college mechanic
Luke King
I know we won the make war thing over all, but did we win the last event?
Caleb Rivera
>tinctures
Medicines and remedies
Dominic Rogers
Doesn't cost factor into the hero thing too?
I'm starting to think the empire really need a tidy up. They're just so damn dull. Their tech tree for one is so slow that by the time I'm 1/3 into the research I've got floppy hats stretching from Fort Straghof to Luccini.
Ian Rivera
Sorry for retardation user but if we won Isabella does that mean we get her soon?
Jonathan Gutierrez
>be welsh celt >get cucked by wops >get cucked again by norsemen >get cucked again by norsemen, speaking french >live the next 500 years under their rule
what other group of people in europe has been JUST like that?
Noah Ramirez
when we get Bretonia at the end of the month, I dunno if she'll just be there or if you'll need to download her from the DLC page like Wurrzag
John Price
right in her undead butthole
Levi Evans
What are some good ideas for Bret LLs beyond the three in the game?
Ethan Jackson
Yep it was awesome. One sided beat down against the stupid COH player.
Parker Ortiz
what sort of contest was it?
Owen Perry
Because the odds weren't that bad. It's all about starting numbers and losses and your reinforcing army got barely touched.
Bentley Sanchez
Gah end of the month is so far. What is worse is that after Brets and an old friend we have an unknowable gulf of time until the next expansion.
Ayden Peterson
Next update is coming out with a custom map editor. but its already in beta now and maps can be used because you can download them off the host. or you can subscribe to have them load on your computer at all times. some are siege defense maps others are fords.
Austin Ortiz
Italians
Jason Stewart
Just a friendly reminder that you're not only a complete fuckup as a strategist in Total War and any other strategy game, but also an absolute failure at life in general and nobody would care if you died right this instant.
...But at least you're not Mannfred von Carstein.
Matthew Bell
I'm not sure why but I think I am going to deduct nine chivalry points from you user.
Chase Nelson
There's really not much. Tancred II, Repanse. but most likely I think CA would just use characters from recent books or they'll just do what they've already done and just make their own.
Liam Bell
Empire also need some of their mechanics tweaked. Like economy.
What else needs fixed user?
Leo Allen
>Go against Dwarves as Empire >Every battle is hard as fuck and I only win through careful micro >Go against Dwarves as Orks >Just right click and watch the Dwarves run like pussies and die
Juan Brown
I doubt Bretonnia will ever get another LL or anything really.
Jordan Collins
bring more cannons
Connor Peterson
Somehow I fended off these beastmen with basic garrison and a lord. Guess that's just normal mode for you.
Blake Brooks
alright I just purchased the humble bundle just for this game and apparently I'm missing a shit ton of DLC
I heard TW:W is pretty much done and there won't be more new factions but they are working on a second game and it's going to have tomb kings which is cool because they are objectively the best faction. Is the second game an overpriced expansion or is it a new, full game? Is it going to have abusive DLC?
Jose Scott
Nah, AI can't into sieges.
You can fend off one full stack with the garrison only in Legendary too. Sometimes even two
Lincoln Torres
>I heard TW:W is pretty much done and there won't be more new factions
U wot. Nigga they will keep adding new factions to the Grand Campaign too with the expansions, which are your so called "Second game"
Imagine a Fall of the Samurai that ends up effecting vanilla Shogun 2 too
Juan Walker
You literally had two units of Azhag's best on your side. Don't know why the AI does suicidal attacks like that.
Andrew Jackson
>that resolution >that unit size
I'm really really sorry for you, user
Oliver Peterson
the article I read calls it a second game and it says tw:w is going to be part of a trilogy.
I hope these warhammer expansions are as good as fots
Nicholas Young
G O B L I N S
Connor Allen
It's gonna work just like Rome 2. It had Attila and Charlemagne, which are sort of standalone games
The only difference is that this time they are going to try add the factions of the new games into the Vanilla Grand Campaign. Unsure if they will manage, there are many problems.
Brayden Gray
>bar is 99% in my favour >auto battle for 200 dead >manual battle >bar is now 60-40 >lose 400 why do I even bother
Ethan Richardson
>gepids have taken over of greece and dacia this game is nuts lmao
Adam Young
The idea they are going for the "trilogy" is that the three can be played separately. But they are meant to all combine into one gigantic map if someone buys them all. They are in essence standalone expansions.
Apparently CA is still working out the technical issues in that regard, but it is definitely something they want to have.
And honestly, I don't see why the second expansion would have Tomb Kings from the get go. It is more than likely going to be Lizardmen, Delves, Helves, and Skaven (if we're lucky). Don't see how they would include the Kings if they are on a completely separate Continent.
Grayson Myers
>And it will have Tomb Kings too
no, that'll be the third game
Ayden Kelly
>Auto-resolve heavily in my favor >Lose all my elephants
Roman fucking shits have mastered the art of killing them only through auto resolve
Julian Morgan
The thing with the Tomb kings is with where they expand the map you could honestly do them with either expansion.
That said can seem them being added in with Lustria, I don't have it on hand but if you look at the map all it would mean is the Lizardmen get more land vertically assuming the play area is going to be like a big square bolted onto the existing map.
David Wood
Kangz will be a race pack for the second game, like B-Men and Welves.
Vanilla will be Helves, Delves, L-Men and Reddit Rats, so if they do any race packs, they've got to have Kangz in there.
Especially if the original assumption is true, that the third game is devoted to Chaos.
Andrew Brown
LET ZE SUPPLICANT COME FORWARD
Grayson Bennett
But he doesn't have a shield user.
Isaiah Sullivan
Because he gave it to you, user.
Connor Young
*mindblown*
Bentley Collins
>is devoted to Chaos.
Third game knows his shit.
Luis Rivera
Gonna start a new TW:W playthrough, just had a blast playing Crooked Moon gobbin hordes on vanilla,
Any reccomended mods?
Thomas Moore
Brass bull when?
Julian Rogers
steel faith overhaul that's it
Liam Perry
>using mods
Colton Walker
So lads, how would you implement naval combat into TW:WH? Based on the factions present, there is obviously a need for different naval strategies between races
>Greenskins All about ramming and boarding, little/no ranged units. Think Rome 2 naval combat
>Dwarfs Ironclads like FotS, Submarines as powerful ranged boats that are vulnerable to being boarded/rammed, and some sort of gyrocopter carrier that allows the deployment of gyros, but is very slow and needs to be babysat (if it dies so do the gyros for game balance)
>Brettonia Based on what I've seen posted here on their navy, these guys should be rocking age-of-sail ships that good all around
>Vamps These guys have the potential to be interesting, given the amount of fliers in their roster. Perhaps they just have fliers that work similarly to land battles, only they land on enemy ships/attack other flying units. Or they could work like the carrier idea for the dwarfs. Vamps would obviously be based on having a swarm of fliers deal with enemy ships, with skeles boarding to help out
>Welfs ???
>Warriors of Chaos/Beastmen Both are hordes so I'm not sure how you would do navies for them. Chaos is going to have to be able to sail at some point in the future of TWWH, otherwise the new world will be chaos-free
>Magic No idea how CA should implement this
Charles Fisher
Roulette lad that keeps updating the jpg list.
Get ready to update. The first official 3D images of Leoun,Fay and Alberic were revealed.
Aaron Jones
>Empire Would be at a halfway between Brets/Dwarfs, having high tier ships that are steam powered, but some lower tier ships as well. Should have ranged ships utilizing cannons and handguns. Basically taking Steam, Steel, and Gunpowder to the seas
Josiah Murphy
...
Cooper Martinez
unfortunately CA has already stated in an interview that they have no plans of using the IP from dreadfleet in any implementation of naval combat for TWWH
Andrew Ward
Err ummm. How do Beastmen spread Chaos?
Aaron Young
you asking about game mechanics or lore?
Gavin Thomas
really aggressive evangelism
Robert Harris
Who should be my anvil?
Jaxson Rivera
Is Europa Perdita good?
Kayden Perry
well the empire would be much better if it had more buildings to build on the campaign map and actually functioned like a rome 2 or attila function instead of a barebones tech demo.
Like it would be cool if you could build supply depots and roads or markets or anything else for that matter to actually specialize your provinces instead of just making Money provinces and Military provinces.
Leo Adams
Lore of course.
Tyler Edwards
What do you mean by "Chaos"? Corruption? Unrest? Mutation?
Leo Fisher
noble germanic swords, if you can keep them safe from cav
but assuming you are playing ostrogoths get the higher tier pikes and use those
beastmen were initially created when the forces of chaos first went nuts and men were merged with animals/vice versa, and their hobbies include thoughtless pillaging of anything remotely civilzed, shitting, raping, eating flesh, and more shitting. Right there you check 3 of the 4 chaos gods' boxes (murdering for khorne, shitting for nurgle, and the obvious for slaanesh)
Thomas Ramirez
Shitting can probably fall under slaanesh too if it was nice shit.
Jordan Richardson
I'd argue that the Beastmen please Tzeentch for the change which they effect.
Jayden Hill
>GIFF DE ORDER YEYE THE ORDER BOSS THE ORDER SAY IT SAY IT AAAAA was it autism?
Asher Flores
Orctism
Grayson Morgan
we can all agree that he did nothing wrong, correct?
Henry Campbell
I think tzeentch is actually their patron diety, the one they'd worship most due to their entire race being different and undergoing mutation often especially at birth. Much like Malagor for example.
Dylan Cook
don't forget they turned into beasts which is very tzeentch-like
