The lores of magic are extremely inflated and should be cut back by 80%.

Rock the boat!

Yeah but how cool is that for a name?
"Nagash"
it echoes eternally with even a whisper

Name a more based Empire.

A FUCKING ANCHOR

For a name like WOOD elves, it's actually useless to use them in the woods lel. All of my archer arrows keep hitting the tress, and no amount of buffs can help that. Is there a mod that lets arrows ignore them, it would make this play through 100x more fun.

How to win as brettonia
>pick fay enchantress
>park her inside a group of grail guardians w/ a paladin
>have a grail relique nearby
>win

no because ca is too incompetent to just code them to ignore tree physics, so the welfs are actually fucking trash in the woods

Yeah deleting some stuff from my pc seems to have fixed it

...

Nice, now keep it that way.

Vampires really are favoured by CA tho. As cool as a proper Mousillon would be, greenskins not zoggin' umies need more love.

>Confederate with Stirland because the vampires and Averlanders are taking turns fucking Stirland's ass and their armies have been routed
>Middenland declares war on me a turn or two afterward
>park one of my armies in Eilhart across the river from Todbringer's army in Carrburg

>we just stay like that for about five or six turns and he sues for peace
Todbringer what the fuck are you doing?

any idea what this is gonna be? age of arthur/brytenwalda style campaign pack?

Reminder we must gas all history/fantasy partisans, furries and /pol/tard infiltrators.

Greenskins already have 3 playable factions. They are the least in need of love.

how the fuck do i do this

God I hope not
Britannia is so fucking boring

2nd

Gotrek pre ascension VS Grimgor

Who wins?

Empire fags in a nutshell.

He's a big guy.

To be fair the amount of stuff they've given the Vampire Cunts is ridiculous

it'd be better than a wrath of sparta in scandinavia, or the main campaign and aoc with just various flavors of germans. at least in britain we can have some faction diversity with romano-british,saxons,jutes,picts,and irsh

God I hate Mannfred.

>Phoenix Guards knows the future and the moment of their death

It was probably frustrating

>lord invades my town

beautiful game

...

Was there anything physically stopping them from talking about it or writing it down?

Of course who doesn't remember the armies of flaming pigs and roman ninjas? My favorite part of the Battle of Alesia.

Reminder that Chinese Han would literally never lose to Rome in any situation

Unit counts:
> Empire: 23 (20 base +3 DLC)
> Vamps: 22 (17 base +4 DLC, 1 FLC)
Generic character counts:
> Empire: 11 (7 base +1 DLC, 3 FLC)
> Vamps: 8 (6 base +1 DLC, 1 FLC)
Legendary lord counts incl. Boris and Duke:
> Empire: 4 (2 base +2 DLC)
> Vamps: 6 (2 base +2 DLC, 2 FLC)
I agree that the Empire really needs more stuff but most of the attention VC have gotten is just playing catch-up.

Well yeah, they'd just swarm them in chinks

I love autism like this. post more

6 fucking legendary lord is just catch-up

>Steel
>rotating Soldiery. A shit ton of dudes has military experience
>Mass produced Crossbows
>Professional Shock Cav
>Insane Logistics

Two more legendary lords than the Empire, one of which is the worst LL in the game (Kemmler) and another of which is an even more genericified character than Alberic or Boris (Red Duke). They're nice models but not much is gained through either of them.

>Its the asscrackof dawn
>You're balls deep in your GF/BF

What do

china didn't even have cav until like 1000 years later than everyone else.

Delet these lies.

>most of the attention VC have gotten is just playing catch-up.
Oh you think? God forbid CA touch up a faction with no fucking ranged units.

Holy vows.

>200 bc
>still using chariots
how will they ever recover

Horses were for barbarians

Empire just needs some subfactions, more starts...

Is this boat the stupidest thing GW ever came up with?

Don't forget Ghorst. The literally who that nobody asked for or wanted.

ghorst turned out pretty fun though

What year do you think Total War China will release?

Yeah, of course. I want a proper Middenland, with its own events and mechanics.

I like him.

year of the monkey

barbarians that kicked their collective asses for millennia

WRONG

what is this image supposed to be.

I see two bunnies having a chat under a patio umbrella.

Yes that's the point, they hated barbarians and everything about barbarians. Especially the means by which they achieved their pillaging: Horses.

3 playable races and the most units of any faction.

Greenskins have plenty of love if not the most love since not even vamps have more start positions.

Chinese are the true barbarians though. Have you ever come across a group of Chinese tourists?

which, again, makes them a technological laughing stock, regardless of their petty reason.

and they couldn't even stick it out, they eventually used cav themselves.

Greenskins have some pretty interesting units missing
They also have the most useless units on their roster. Would like to see them buffed to the point of being useful.

Looks like vikings to me. I hope they add a system where we can choose which Norse god to worship and then we can call upon their powers on the campaign map and summon them during battle.
And before any of you say anything, this is historical fact.

yeah but they're not hurting for it. Also i wouldn't call some orc units useless, just situational. its a very versatile roster.

Sure pump wagons and spear chuckas would be nice along with a few more hero options. but i definitely think empire needs another start position before anything else. And i say that as some one who prefers orcs to empire.

Stream tomorrow?

>Total War China: Warring States Period
> Light cavalry is a tier 4 unit that takes 80+ turns to research.
>stuck with nothing but levy spearmen till then.

I can't wait.

I finally got wardancers

>send them to attack some beastmen
>each stack kills like 150

wew

Actually China's spearmen armies were professional, not levies!

but that's not true

They're deadly but fragile. Just like real women...

you are professional

not in the warring state period, they were drafted peasants.

because they finally figured out massed spearmen were better than nobles on chariots... 500 years later than everyone else.

biggest problem with the faction

Thank you. You are professional too.

I'm hyped for Wushu Swordsmen unit. Or Shaolin monk unit and you pick what style they train in before recruiting them.

Biggest problem is that it's led by a mouthbreathing goatman with a speech impediment.

not in the warring states period you're not

How about Boxer rebellion china? Thatd be a pretty nice total war

Jeez !! This Warring States period is starting to sound more like a .... Boring States period !!

Can't wait for spears and gun. Also that other gun that fires further.

I set this ambush and sent like 4 of these against their unknowing asses

It's funny, even without penises they still raped beastman ass

Am I the only one who hates the fantasy stuff. I don't hate warhammer but it just doesn't do it for me

Fucking Hiroshima fix the server

Why hasn't any info been released on the skaven? They were hinted at when the announcement trailer hot. Is it not coming with the lizardman/delves/helves?

What if Total War China won't actually be a historical title? What if it's actually...

Total War: Dynasty Warriors?!?!?

It'd be so fucking awesome, guys

i'm sad there isn't a "not" Ancient Greece in Warhammer.

Hoplites and greek mythology stuff would be so cool in this setting.

they'll be the next trailer because we need more high elf bashing

yes

I agree but not to the level of hating it, but it doesn't have the extra oomph of knowing you're playing in periods that actually happened and using people and units that actually existed. Historical with some fantasy elements are ok though.

Tilea has some units like that, but I agree that it would be cool to give them more focus. Maybe assign a fantasy race their aesthetic like Babylon and Chorfs.

Its really fucking gay, it's got all these crossboarders and infiltrators from other generals and other fanbases and I FUCKING MISS the old comfy historical total war folk and ESPECIALLY the youtube videos like PrinceofMacedon and HairofCarthig who have now become FANTASY KEK sellouts

>and ESPECIALLY the youtube
kys

I really wish they'd add in more units like this to spice up the siege battles.

HERP DERP WHO BE THE SKAVEN?!

The AI 'march' stance dickery will mean that you literally can't pursue Lu Bu!
Or can't catch him at least, I guess.

So uh, who's Krell?

>tfw it's probably going to be vikangz
I wanted a Rise of Islam dlc though realistically I knew that wasn't going to happen

Undead Chaos Champion. Kemmler likes to think that Krell's his puppet, but Krell's true loyalties are somewhat more complex. Ironically, Kemmler eventually sided with Chaos whereas Krell sided with Nagash.

Tilea has Remas, which has late-Roman pike units.

>ironically


>theres nothing particularly ironic about it

fuck off redditor
