>force them to join my confederation as peace terms
>March their stack ahead of the Royal Army to the dwarf hold that dared interfere with fair Bretonnia's affairs
>send them up the walls first, without support, directly into the dwarven bullets and axes
>when the dwarves are battered, out of ammo, exausted, and absolutely drenched in the blood of the very allies who had called them to this war, the still fresh Royal Army casually sweeps them from the field

CHIVALRY

Kadrin not ruled by Ungrim Ironpissed? What is this heresy?

where does this picture originally come from?

races that are evil for the sake of being evil are fucking gay.

Having said that Dark Elves hate other elves just as much as me so they are cool.

It was a MTG card.

giants not so tough after getting spooked

DE don't hate WE. they don't really give a shit
they hate HE for not making Malekith Phoenix King, but have no quarrel with WE

that said there was once a plot by Morathi to corrupt Ariel and make her fight HE, and WE wrecked some serious shit, almost destroying DE Hogwarts and almost killing Morathi, but other DE didn't really care and Malekith even refused to send help, so his mother could learn a lesson.

KHAZUKAN

KHAZAKIT

HA!

WE WUZ SPOOKY N SHIET!!

>Morathi
She is literally everything wrong with DEs.

Traitor bitch needs to be thrown into the blood cauldron.

Not a whole lot to do up there yet, but I'd love a playable Dorf faction somewhere in the north.

Would you marry a Brayherd leaders daughter to make peace between your peoples?

How far would you go for Bretonnia?

She is always doing retarded shit and setting them back.

and she worships chaos

Pretty sure they have plenty of other sorceresses.

I mean.

If she looks like that, I might consider it.

Who the fuck expects beastmen to actually have peace though.

I was under the impression Malekith rode her into battle.

ABSOLUTELY NOT

what dlc should i buy, wood elves or call of the beastmen. which is more fun?

sadly, they retconned that before GoT made such things OK again

I find beastmen more fun, but Wood Elves are better.

FURFAGS GET OUT

is the chaos campaign still shitty?

I legit think Crumpets is the first expansion. It's been regularly(twice daily) updated since Warhammer launched last may and we know the first expansion began work in early February 2016. I originally thought it was Bretonnia but Crumpets2 was Bretonnia.

Bagel and bamboo appeared when Bretonnia was unveiled in November.

The Promo DLC's are now unencrypted. The last one 1.48mb(if that isn't really 1.48gb) sounds like a unit or lord. If its 1.48gb then that could legit be a minor faction pack. Perhaps "Southern Realms pack" they would only need 1 LL each with a unique unit and building for each state.

Promo A and B appeared in January 2017. That sounds like a choice voted for by the players.

>not wanting to sleep on a fuzzy butt
Not even a YIFFer tbqh but I'd cuddle that beast girl

I SAID CEASE!!!!!!!!!!!

>minor faction pack

Will never happen.

Mark my fucking words, screencap this post. It will never, EVER happen. Kislev, Tilea, Estalia and Border Princes and Marienburg will never have their own unit lists or lords. They will always be a shitty not-Empire faction.

if i start a game as Vlad can i recruit mannfred? do i have to confederate with him or can i just capture his provinces

Southern realms will happen to balance Tomb Kings as southern realms(Tilea,Estalia and Border Princes) will be the first to get hit when TK's march north.

>best friends with Louen
>we kill a horde of orcs, beastmen, and Marienburg's entire armed forces together
>entire rest of the Empire hates me for dealing with medieval France and keeps marching south to die, ignoring all attempts at diplomacy until they're routing backwards

Looks actually good now

I think I just graudated from Easy difficulty...

...

Just like they will make Kislev a minor faction because they are the first to be attacked by Norsca and Chaos?

No, no minor factions, not now or ever.

I honestly see a chaos remake happening since people are not too happy with it.

The second expansion is Chaos divided

>these niggers didn't tell me the Battle Pope was so much fun

Purging chaos and vamp shits in fucking style

I want to play nurgle so bad.

holy shit nigga what are you doing

TWG normal = easy from the older titles, in essence you've been playing retard difficulty

The 1st expansion is NOT a DLC for the main game, it's standalone.

I feel like Hard is when I want to just play brainless map painting and Very Hard is where I want to actively engage my mind.

I have yet to try Legendary.

Poopoopeepee DLC worth it if I like horde gameplay? Do they have cool units? Never really played against them due to the beast fucking shits always getting rekt in a few turns offscreen.

Really liked being able to replenish my losses in battle in like a turn while still being able to move 50% with chaos. Only thing that bothered me is the undivided shtick and Archaon being an unlikeable fag.

have fun parking his big ass coach in the inner city of altdorf

could use some fire effects that pop up when he attacks; and some more mist around him

but it was definitely too much before

Play warhammer battle march/Mark of chaos

Yeah they're the best horde faction

i had fun playing their mini campaign, killing hordes of empire soldiers with giant-rock-lobbing-cyclopes-cowmonsters, but i also find their early game very lacking, you have Bretonnia level of shit tier units and you have to plan out how the retarded AI will march so you can avoid them, or you wait 200 turns for your horde to grown and then you overrun every state one at a time. (which is ok in mini campaigns because the turn times are very short, but in the grand campaign it can be a bore)

also where comes the
>Poopoopeepee
name from again ?

But they link together when installed with one another. CA have already changed the campaign names and listings in database and the actual game. Warhammer campaign is now Old World campaign.

They say FotS is standalone for Shogun 2 yet its listed as DLC for the base game. I think they've changed their plans as they confirmed last November due to the massive success of Warhammer and its DLC's which was unexpected they are expanding their plans. The first expansion will have 4 base races instead of 3 and the map will be the same size as the base game instead of half.

All info from the original datamine is now outdated or out of order.

POO POO PEE PEE

PRAISE MY POO POO HEAP.

>warrior priests have as much armor as vampire hunters

Warrior priest need a buff.


Also Alaric the mad LL when?!?!?!

Literally my reaction right now looking at this
youtube.com/watch?v=63UlBsdElsY

think what a good fertilizer this heap could be for the tree of garrisons, and how you could shit on the fucking amber farming

The latest Beastmen army book was pretty bad and removed a lot of old lore, replacing it with a weird focus on shitting on things.

how are you supposed to get thorgrim to confederate with you as belegar if he wins the badlandsbowl?

you don't

dorf civil war is the answer, you must unite the holds

>play Jozai campaign FotS
>Tokugawa always go to war with other Shogunate factions and pull me into stupid wars
>decide to break alliance first turn
>they go imperial and declare war on me later

WHO THE FUCK DESIGNED THIS AI

WHY IS EDO DOING IMPERIAL

Reminder that Beastmen are literally the self-inserts of autistic furries and should all be put to death

ROLLAN

You need a good chunk of the badlands.

Take the western badlands as a staging point for taking Eight Peaks back and you will be able to do it around turn 100.

That is what I did.

>Beastmen and WEs manage to put their anger and differences aside.

>Before you notice, whole world is covered in forests.
>Forests that also smell pretty bad.

How bout I do anyway

how do i git gud?

ive played every total war game, but ever since shogun 2, i just can't play on Hard or anything above

i consolidate my empire, get a handful of provinces, have enough money to field one stack, but my enemy, no matter who they are or where, has a stack and a garrison. I'm always outnumbered. I know hammer and anvil, I know flanking. My past few battles I've always been out numbered 3 to 2, i do my best to flank and end up surrounding my opponent, but they always seem to win despite this.

how do i kill enemy lords when they can just smash my shit about? I've got a unit of reiksguard and they're good and all, but they get tired so fast, I can only get so many charges in before they're useless

i just dont know what im doing wrong, my units all have a few chevrons, i know i'm not retarded but it's starting to frustrate me.

pls hlep

Total war Warhammer is easy as fuck, you can easily win very hard campaigns, since the whole game is tuned 1 (if not 2) difficulty levels lower

>took the 8 peaks turn 60 or so
>thorgrim had already conquered everything north of it besides black crag
i might just have to ally with him for the campaign victory desu

He doesn't really go over the problem I'm having

You have Altdorf and Grunburg

You have enough money for 1 stack, even with taxes it would not be feasible to make another army.

Secessionists have a full stack in Helmgart.

If you siege for one turn, they sally out and attack you. The balance of power is literally 10%.

What do you do?

Oops, you've been ambushed by beastmen.

as empire you should be able to make enough money out of reikland alone to maintain almost two stacks in the early game, if you can ruse emil into leaving marienburg then that quickly becomes two and a half

so mad.

got to turn 160 or so with mountain jews, owned all of badlands and mountains, put a whoopin on archaeon, start heading north

decide to try out an empire campaign for variety since I was steamrolling too hard with 4 doomstacks

fucking overwrote my save without telling me, now I'm back to turn 113 because I didn't know control+s isn't a hard save

fuck this gay earth

replaying Shogun 2 FotS and found something interesting whilst playing a battle

why are there electric/telephone poles in a shitty little settlement in bumfuck nowhere

What is the fucking point of half of the mask?
