They have frenzy and very high leadership. They'll hold a line longer than most other infantry and do a lot of damage to unarmored opponents, but any elite unit will eventually get through to them.

Holy shit. I'd tell you to go to Plebbit but even they're smart enough to figure this out by themselves. Try NeoFAG, fag.

>Maybe the game is telling me something.
>No that can't be it, clearly it is the game that is at fault.

You're a fucking moron then. Wait till tomorrow.

why did this gif make me laugh so much

just got back from the doc, is this "fix" on leddit legit?

First 20v20 as bretonnia, was pretty hard

Roll
pls no dorfs

Bretonnia izpzi meta

1. Max stack an army (fuck the penalty)
2. start confederation techs
3. Wait for rebellions
4. Auto resolve rebellions, farm XP and chivalry
5. When the event is over, start confederating
6. DON'T CONFEDERATE BEFORE THE EVENT ENDS
7. Kill Marienburg. Fuck those god damn jews.
8. ???
9. Profit!

So, when playing Alberic you are supposed to travel to far away lands and kill shit?

I get this feeling with his starting position and start on a boat

yes dummy.

If I roll a lord I don't own I buy the dlc

nvm, just loaded wh up and it finally worked

CA are still colossal retards tho, hope they abandon any plans for using TWA again

You are supposed to go up north and fuck shit up for the snowniggers

How do i economy with bretonia? I'm sop used to putting walls in every minor settlement for each race but that doesn't seem viable anymore.

Jesus titty Christ there goes my first attempt at Bretonnia.

>lay siege on Marienburg
>orcs come out to play
>get defeated despite my knights' best efforts
>somehow retreat to THE OTHER SIDE OF THE RIVER
>Marienburg teleports their army to Gorssel
>Orcs raid Couronne
>land back in Couronne
>die a violent death

Merde.

HES BACK BABY

The main building chain gives walls anyway so just spam economy buildings. Put the peasants to work.

New to WH, but not Total War.

Is magic really, REALLY shitty?
I've been playing custom battles for a few days and I'm quite decent at it.
That is, as long as I use a conventional army.
Every time I try to add magic to the mix I end up with a Close Defeat.
And I've tried everything.
I thought that at least the support magic, using regeneration and shit would help, but heeeell no.
Seems like I'm better getting some artillery + infantry instead of a single wizard/whatever.

The only exception seem to be the VC.
Their abilities seem to be the only ones that have a decent impact on the battle.
100%
Guaranteed or your money back

And people were saying Bret campaign will be easy.

>Not farming greenskin spawns
>Not letting greenskins fuck Marienburg up
>Not Attacking greenskin settlement while their army is focused elsewhere
>Not saving marienburg from an orc attack
>Not being best bros with Marienburg
DO YOU EVEN KNIGHTLY VOWS?

wew fucking lad

This was tough.

I know some people have been shitting on the Green Knight but he was absolutely essential here, took out the Red Duke and the other army's general right quick he did.

>nabbed a code early when they were testing and now I'm stuck waiting until tomorrow because lol technical difficulties

Well, thanks for nothing I guess.

So a tier 3 minor settlement has walls? That's all I need to know. Unwalled settlements are magnets for any enemy near your territory.

Also got this fucking trait.

Farm Greenskins for the first 20 turns lad, it helps.

>The main building chain gives walls anyway
Really honored my chivalry.

Actually kinda disappointed Alberic doesn't have a trident. Seems like it would've been a nice touch.

How are you supposed to start out as Bretonnia? Shiet Greenskins and jews barricate themselves and I just can't do anything

There's already a mod for it

So I'm impressed by the AI in Warhammer - and this is just on Hard mode. Does VH and Legendary simply give the AI extra buffs? Or does the AI get better as well?

Also, do you guys recommend battle realism mode? I had alot of fun with it in Shogun but it seems a bit well...unrealistic for a game filled with mages and magic and all sorts of technologies - seems to me every faction would have some means of observing the entire battlefield at all times.

holy shit. i always restart my campaign when i lose a battle, so all my lords will have that trait.

seems to have just installed without resorting to fuckery

theres a fix on leddit, idiot

>tfw your'e about to get culturally enriched by superior green semen spores

They AI doesnt get any smarter on harder difficulties they just get leadership buffs. And from my experience "realism" mods or any total war just quarters the damage of all your units and makes battles 5x longer. they are always shit.

Greenskins are all asexual.

>i always restart my campaign when i lose a battle

>permanently delete the DLC without deleting the main game then register a new total war access account and then get a new key

Yeah, no, I can wait until tomorrow.

except for skarsnig, thats a very feminine greenskin.

not in my headcannon they're not

>i always restart my campaign when i lose a battle, so all my lords will have that trait.

There was a book a while ago with implied rape from greenskins, sadly I haven't saved it, maybe someone here knows which one it is.

Battle realism mode doesn't do anything to damage - it limits your view of the battlefield in a more "realistic" fashion I suppose.

AI only gets buffs.

Which is why VH Campaign and Normal Battle is the best difficulty.

It takes one (1) minute if you're not retarded. Are you retarded?

Goddamn son. Link?

Is there a consensus on what's generally better for lords in terms of leveling up?
Campaign bonuses, battle bonuses or character stats?

No, it's 23:27 where I live, and I need to go to bed because I have to work tomorrow.

Nice passive aggressiveness though.

No its just there's a lot of different variables to magic. You need to know the lore the spell and the target to really get the most use out of it.

You can't just spam magic attacks. You need to know to use certain spells against certain targets. generally armored spells against armored targets. And also try to pin the enemy in place before hitting them with a spell because they can dodge it.

but the same goes to you to.

A lot of unit buffs are also really good.

>look it up
>it's real

>Normal Battle is the best difficulty.

AI can't match up to a human level of strategy,they need artificial bonuses to cover for that. in normal the human player has an unfair advantage.

It all depends on the lord and what you want to use him for.

Having a lord get attrition reduction and combo him up with a attrition reducing hero is useful if you are going to get rid of norscan scum.

then why are you complaining if you cant play early anyway? Thanks for answering yes btw.

Whats generally better? Health, armor, or melee defense?

I went straight for the greenskin tribe and wrecked them in one battle, then I sacked Grossel and peaced out with Marienburg for some extra cash.

Now I am just confederating stuff.

Also if you're making an army in custom batttles. its actually best to modify the spells that your wizard brings. each spell has a cost and they're quite expensive, especially since you're limited in your winds of magic so its best to pick which spells you're going to use most often and only bring those and use the rest of the money on infantry.

Cheaper wizards or buying the right abilities is key in understanding multi player, too.

AGE OF SIGMAR > FANTASY

roll

Its more fun to fight 3 units of gobbos than 1 unit of gobbo with +20 leadership. Meaning the veryhard campaign difficulty will spawn more armies, balancing it out.

You could also make it harder for yourself by not skilling the game breaking lord skills like lightning strike or anything that gives units huge melee attack/defence bonuses.

>tfw

REMEMBER THOU ART BUT DUST

Health and armor over melee defense. Go for melee defense if your character has little of it compared to other stats.

>my lotr fanfiction is better than your lotr fanfiction

>try Legendary Belegar campaign
>can't tell the difference between normal and legendary gobbos

Yeah you get walls, but you don't get a good garrison the walls will only slightly delay enemy armies until they build siege equipment.

Steam says Bretonnia is fixed, but I can't check right now. Anyone who didn't delete the dlc confirm whether it's working or not?

Why even play battles.

Why even play the campaign.

>alberics trident gives bonuses to naval shit

fucking CA

I heard Gelt got something more than just the lore of metal changes
Is he the best wizard there ever was now?

Why even live.

It is live

yea came up for me about 30mins ago.

I just wanted to butt in and remind everyone that The Last Ringbearer is the best LotR fanfic.
