/twg/ - Total War General

Because building fortresses is their thing, along with keeping lists of high school bullies. They're the ultimate bitter basement dwellers.

I can't read vodka-runes but I respect that you're not playing a legendary lord.

they fight crime

This kills the Seleucid.

How many threads will /twg/ go through when the announcement happens?

so the next total war is warhammer 2 with snakes?

We must own the entire board at once of course.

>But Clan Pestilens will be in the game at start, do you mean a unit DLC?

Yes, CA is going to release the monster and Warpstone tech units for Skaven.

Units like Plague Monks, Plagueclaw Catapults and the Screaming Bell will come with the Sotek vs Pestilens DLC.

He didn't want one of his daemons to come into contact with a filthy slav.

Chaos has the gayest LLs. Not that guy, but neither Angstaon, faget Sigvald, nor OTT Kholek are even slightly appealing to me. Kholek was fun to turn into an army crusher once, but that's about it.

lizards are reptiles and snakes are reptiles but lizards are not snakes

and big bara lizards with their skink shotas

>Under-empire infighting from the start
>enemies of all nations

Legendary dificulty or go home.

...

I propose the invasion of other generals to expand our shitposting capacity

16 HOURS

I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE

No, that is the way of doom. Let us not repeat the mistakes of /gsg/.

Lumpin Croop is the hero we need

Can't wait to play as Tilean colonies, Amazons and the Vampire Coast.

...

So I am at party but even after few beers and being a bit drunk I'm still too autistic to enjoy it.
How many hours to lizardmen reveal?

stop playing on normal

I propose my bottom.

>thirsty thursday lmao

Pls no bully, it was my first playthrough.

...

>1 more sleep left
I can smell it already

>Gobbla running circles around Skarsnik on the map

That's actually kinda cute.

...

>drinking alcohol ever

mannlet is such a tryhard

Belegar is one wooly motherfucker. Bugman best dorf.

Was it common for people to go into combat in full plate armour with no form of heraldry or other signals?

How would you recognize friend from foe?

Playing as Tilea with the southern realms mod, didn't expect it to be so brutal. The start itself is fine since Tilea is united with no real immediate threats expect maybe the greenskins to the west, but now I'm on turn 60 with the Estelia and Western Border Princes provinces and the greenskins occupy power rankings # 2-7. I've had to fend off waves of greenskin stacks since they won the badlandsb owl and Beggar Nohammer got destroyed on turn 20 even with my help.

>lizardmen
reee i want a historic total war. why they release after only 2 year a second warhammer part?
that makes no sense.

What I'd give to see Snagla and Grom.

I mean they are broken on any difficulty.

My first legendary play through was with them, a line of Ironbreakers is pretty impossible to break. Stack a shit ton of Quarellers behind them buffed with an engineer and shit, they fire over your line and destroy the enemy, even shielded/armored enemies, and are pretty immune to people shooting back with their shields. Throw some Hammerers on the flanks to protect yourself from flanks/flank the enemy. Finish it up with an artillery piece or two to take out enemy artillery.

Nothing could stop it.

Literally the only threats were Hellcannons, which out range my artillery, forcing me to move... And getting cornered and being forced to fight two full stacks with only a single stack... And even then I sometimes won those.

Historical games don't make half the money Warhammer made

Because its a trilogy getting released in rapid succession you idiot.

They said as much.

And they are still making a historical total war.

why the fuck do I have so little labor

marienburg's deathstack went for a stroll and i wanted to snipe them

warhammer outsold the prior historical titles and they want to strike while the iron's hot.

The next history title is being worked on right now. Stop being a bitch and just enjoy a fun series in the meantime. CA seems to actually care about these games.

Belegar Ironhammer? More like Belegar Cottonchin.

it's so fluffy
chicks love soft and fluffy beards

TW Warhammer is still historic, it's just somewhere else's history

>not bringing 4 great cannons to destroy the towers and a second army with a dozen mortars

but it doesn't make fun. the units are boring and looking weird.
i tried 4 times but i can't play this fantasy shit longer than 20h.

i think it selles so well because of the new setting and the promising trailers in combination with denouvo.
but the second part will not be so sucsessful.

>Snagla
>No Gitilla Da Hunta

The army composition doesn't exactly suggest an advanced turn count.

>i think it selles so well because of the new setting and the promising trailers in combination with denouvo.
>but the second part will not be so sucsessful.

Rock the... boat?

What is Jerusalem worth?

now that's a boat-ship

>turn 10

:thinking:

No Estalia?

You mean Estalian colonies. Tilea doesn't have any colonies in Lustria, though they sometimes send expeditions.

Best I can do is 20 denarii

That's great, Belegar can drop the pretense and repurpose to a far more suitable life as a surrogate mother for a flock of newborn chicks.

Are the Beastmen and the Wood Elves in the campaign even if you don't own the DLC?

Not playable, just there.

Yes

There are no Estalian characters of note outside of a few merchants. Certainly no one suitable to lead.

I propose moving Josef Bugman to Karak Norn.

I know it would take him away from the main playable Dwarf faction, but his Brewery is around that area. And you could also bring out Brokk Ironpick or whatever his name is to round things out.

>game outsells predecessors
>b-but that doesn't mean it's fun! I-I can only play for t-twenty hours!

Yep they are.
Beastmen are a bit of a nuisance -- they tend to show up at inconvenient locations. However, they're quite fun to battle.
Wood Elves factions used to be the bane of the civilized world, venturing forth from Athel Loren with high tier armies and seeding everyone. Nowadays they're fairly insular

reddit rats and two types of elves

You're delusional if don't think it won't sell faster than hotcakes.

Nothing
Still N O T H I N G

is there a mod which is changing these fucking kraut names?
josef, manfred, heinrich....
it's aweful

...

I love TW:W, but making any argument trying to correlate sales with fun is pretty poor
Many game series have a great selling entry that is less fun than is predecessors

...

I want a Bloody Sunz faction, boyz.

BY SIGMAR NO

I don't mind them being insular most of the time - it fits well with their lore - but they should still have something like a Wild Hunt.

Since there's no winter/summer system, maybe every thirty or so turns they declare war on a random faction and then Orion strikes out. It can be weighed with a number of factors to make it a guided randomness - which factions are closest physically, which have in the past declared war or trespassed in Athel Loren, which have aided or ignored Athel Loren's enemies.

This does NOT have my consent

>but it doesn't make fun. the units are boring and looking weird.

you may have autism

go see your doctor, it can be treated

Is the tier 4 settlements mod considerd cheating?

yes like every other mod...

>enemy has flagellants

*unzips 10 quarrelers*

Yes.

>Kemmler is Mousillon
Well it's not exactly true

That would be a cool feature. Admittedly if the player was on the receiving end it would seem a bit shit to get Wild Hunt'd, but I'm of the opinion that a bit of randomness never hurt. Wonder if it's possible, might take a look at the event system to see how it fits together.

>is there a mod which is changing the kraut names of the fantasy german empire
why don't you make a mod that replaces all bretonnian names, they sound too French

I still think it's pretty funny that CA decided to implement a Literally Who just to give VC yet another LL

It helps the AI.

THAT'S GOING IN THE BOOK

Still a step up from "Kemmler is working for Mannlet".

Vampire Coast will be the pre-order bonus for Game 2. Watch.

Okay, I don't get it.

What's the difference between the Gleaming Penant, which gives the unit a passive augment that gives +4 leadership, and the Standard of Discipline, which... gives the unit +4 leadership?

Is the Gleaming Penant, like, a morale restoring effect that restores it over time? Or do they both do the exact same thing in stupidly different ways?

Eh, part of the point is to have shit happen, right? It's not like Bretonnia gets many Waaghs or beastman raids, and at least in my games Mousilion has just sat around.

You are not welcome here, mein freund

Can you tell who will win based off nothing but this single picture?

You should use that and more building slots for capitals
The AI shits out army stacks

Play as a horde for more challenge
