Does anyone have any idea how the third Warhammer game is meant to work as a standalone thing?
Everyone's suggestions for it just make it sound like an add on for the Old World
Hudson Myers
second for reposting question from last thread.
I've got a question to those who meddle in mod db tables. I'm trying to make deck droppers(bats carrying zombies) and My plan to actually implement them would be to alter the raise dead spell to make it a unit ability with 1 charge and 0 range that each bat swarm could get.
No idea how to make make the spell not cost winds of magic though. what I have managed is to give the bats the raise dead spell, which while entertaining. is hardly suitable.

I think you'd need to make it an ability rather than a spell.

Who's the best Beastmen LL? After failing my latest Chaos campaign, I decided I'd like to start my first Beastmen campaign instead.
Connor Williams
Why doesn't TWW have any formations apart from Melee front / back? Rome 2 had loads.

Evan Sullivan
Waifu spotted
Adrian Williams
I want to put my dick in a Skaven.
Joshua Ward
Will Warhammer: Total War ever include naval warfare? Man' O War: Corsair is fun, but I want to smash ships on a strategical level.
Chase Morgan
That's a transwoman you bigot.
Wyatt Gomez
If only they looked like that
Ayden Cooper
yeah I did try referencing it as an ability but it still costs winds of magics, I'm sure I'm not doing it right. just gotta figure out how to implement properly and what 12 tables I need to make it work which is the problem.
zombie pirates of the vampire coast my man I've since given these guys kustom textures but, it's a good implementation which is what matters.
maybe in wh3, but unlikely. people hated naval of previous total wars for some reason.(probably all the bugs and janky boarding animations)
Isaiah Reyes
While hunting he encountered a mighty hawk, for three days and nights they battled, until finally he struck a mortal blow, though the hawk raked his eye even as it lay dying. Now he wears the beast's wings as a trophy.
Camden Robinson
How does Very hard differ from Normal outside of enemies getting more money? I'm playing as beastmen if it makes a difference.
Jason Richardson
Umm sweetie are you implying transwomen cant be waifus?
Jackson Lopez
How do I make Rome 2 fun to play
Yes, I already have DeI installed
Thomas Barnes
They really, REALLY don't like you

Matthew Rodriguez
I loved naval stuff in Empire and Shogun 2. Rome 2 shat the bed, though.
Brandon Hughes
Depends. You have a fat cock? If so, Khazrak.
I thought they already really really didn't like me.
Gabriel Phillips
um yes broflake, waifu implies heteronormativitiy which is a white supremacist construct that transwomen refuse to partake in.
Carter Gomez
My fat cock is going straight into Boris' remaining eye then, thanks for the suggestion
Nicholas Cooper
This is one of the most Reddit conversations I've seen in a while.
Cooper Martinez
And how many of those formations were useful? Seriously asking. Never played Rome 2 because the melee combat looked like utter shit but in Shogun 2 I never once used any of the formations available. The way I deployed my units myself always worked just fine.
Thomas Ortiz
Uh. so yeah. No, pissboy.
Transwomen of color are constantly marginalized by the internalized white supremacy of white trans folks. Just because you're trans doesn't mean you're not a white supremacist.
Robert Clark
Man sized reddits? A giant underground empire of redditmen? Please, this is absurd
Kevin Butler
No prob friendo. Malagor gets some pretty fucking sick magic, and he starts out fighting the Greenskin. He also gets a giant which is cool.
Khazrak has much better infantry, getting 2 Gor Herds and a Minotaur which is also pretty cool, and he's a monster in combat.
I personally prefer Khazrak but Malagor seems like a lot of fun. The chaos guy is a meme though, like all Chaos units.
Ryan Price
I WISH THE SKAVEN WOULD BE ANNOUNCED ALREADY SO WE COULD DISCUSS THEM INSTEAD OF HOW MUCH WE ALL WANT TO GO ON A KILLING SPREE AGAINST PEOPLE WHO THINK THERE ARE MORE THAN TWO GENDERS
Thomas Powell
absolutely
Nathaniel Collins
But I don't want to talk about Skaven.
Logan Bailey
Thanquols all but guaranteed at least.
Screencap this.
Christian Taylor
Off hand one ability that comes to mind is the Regiments of Renown Arachnarok Queen, which can spawn spiderlings. Might be a good one to study.
Aaron Clark
I looked at that, I could get them to summon the spiders as a start then see if I can create a new entity, thats the hard part though.
Brody Smith
FLC for norsca is metal and death wizards, right?
Also the panther knights were mentioned in the files
Nathaniel Brown
so were explosive squigs, which you can see implemented at despite not ending up in game.
some things just don't make the cut. would look nice to have panther lads though/.
Jose Peterson
The map opens up into the Realm of Chaos
Mason Nelson
Explosive squigs are in a wurrzag quest battle, aren't they?
Robert Peterson
They are joking...
Thomas Anderson
It looks like the Forest of the Fallen Giants from Dark Souls II.
Kevin Ortiz
There's a whole lot of shit off to the right of the Old World that could be used, and as says, they could potentially expand into the Realm of Chaos, but that's quite unlikely
I'd expect some Chaos factions to actually get settlements, sorta like the gigantic settlements that Wood Elves get, citadels of immense power up above the world, while Archaon's Chaos might stay a horde faction
Parker Bennett
yeah but in the db they are partly referenced as a another unit in the roster but without some of the required information. What we can glean from that is that they were intended as a unique standalone but didn't make the roster. instead we got the partial implementation in that quest battle and that was that!.
Cooper Bennett
I wonder if verminlords and/or stormfiends will get in I know some people don't like them but versatile techno-monsters seem pretty fun to play with
Jason Taylor
No shit?
Luis Watson
So i recently bought TW:Warhammer and have just finished a Vlad campaign.
I really dont enjoy the corruption/chaos/scripted Army and warherd shit.
Im still in the mood for some TW though whats objectively the best TW out of (inc. all DLC):
>Shogun 2 >Rome 2 >Attila >Warhammer (dont have all dlc because it doesnt seem worth it and its overpriced AF)
I've personally have the most fun, and hours, in Shogun 2 but leaning towards Attila atm.
What say ye?
Wyatt Sullivan
I like Total War: Vietnam
Zachary Adams
I like Shogun 2 a lot but I never tried Attila. I was never a fan of Rome 2.
I'd say Empire is the most like the other TW games though, so maybe give that a try. I'm not even sure if the DLC is completely worth it. Playing as Beastmen is pretty obnoxious and Chaos is trash, and you get everyone on your map even if you can't play them.
Ryan Garcia
Well, I have the most hours in Warhammer, I'll have to say that. I've modded it a lot though.
Logan Parker
What mods do you use?
Anthony Perez
>Thanquol had masterminded a string of near-victories that stretched even longer than his list of former rat ogre bodyguards. >near-victories
KEK
Keep telling yourself that Thanquol.
Colton Wood
Shogun 2 with FOTS and Attila with Age of Charlememe
Playing as Charlemagne in his campaign is especially great with the story events
Adam Rogers
the intent is in the tropical jungles/damp ships/bogs the zombies come from/go through they get all moulded up.
also mods already 130mb due to all the textures edited. what is the max filesize for a wamham mod anyway
>he doesn't solo the entirety of Templehof with Manfred and his Varghulf
Jace Phillips
I want Ghorgons for beasties. Middenheim for Empire. New, reworked Chaos campaign. Is it so hard CA?
Julian Collins
RIP squig
Aaron Wilson
So is the von Carstein campaign harder than mannlet's? I'm thinking about starting a VC campaign but I really don't want to play as Manlet cause of how he is a pussy bitch that ruined warhammer.
Leo Gutierrez
no it is easier because Vlad and Isabella are op af in the campaign. Play on Very Hard or Legendary
William Turner
He killed-murdered tenhuhihahuhehahuhehaiheuHeuinone the prophet of sotekh
Henry Lee
It's a bit trickier at first than Mannlets but you can rush Drakenhof on turn 2. After that, dealing with Templehof is easy. It's just the starting that's a bit harder, after that it's as easy as any Vamp playthrough.
Elijah Bennett
Teheheheaunine reincarnates though, so he shows up in the End Times.
William King
Fug-fug :DDD
Gabriel Long
So that's what the horns are for...
Jayden Stewart
So given the amount of STUFF these past two weeks, what do you think this week has in store for us?
Camden Wood
But this will be my second play through of the game, I don't think I can handle very hard
Robert Sanchez
Concept art and one static model. Maybe Norsca gameplay. Maybe.
Tyler Wright
I have been thinking about this as well. I would start with game 2 that will have High Elves, Dark Elves, Lizardmen and Skaven. Tomb Kings, Araby and Dogs of War seem likely as dlc.
Therefore with game 3, we only have 3 major factions left (Daemons of Chaos, Chaos Dwarfs and Ogre Kingdoms) and the map is mostly done so we must go to the east. The Chaos Wastes, Dark Lands and Mountains of Mourn seem definite. More can be added though as each game is a standalone and Cathay could be added (also that the Great Maw that the Ogre Kingdoms worship is in the lands of Cathay and I doubt the Great Maw would be left out).
With the factions, I will go with the Daemons of Chaos being split into Khorne, Tzeentch, Nurgle and Slaanesh. Each one will have their respective Daemons alongside Chaos aligned Warriors, Beastmen (Khorngor, Pestigor, etc) and some additional units like Cultists and the like.
The pre-order for the third game will be likely be Kislev as they are the first line of defense against Chaos and would add a human and good guy touch to the third game (Kislev is in the first game so maybe the pre-order will be used to give additional content to tide people over until it releases).
Talking of a human touch, I do believe that Cathay and other eastern kingdoms might have to be added as Daemons of Chaos love to destroy civilisation and collect souls but doing this with other Chaos factions or Chaos Dwarfs or Ogre Kingdoms would be strange.
As you say though, it's difficult to work it out compared to how easy it was with the first two games as we are going into possible unknown territory here.
Jordan Taylor
Norsca and Dark Elf gameplay
Connor Martin
Norsca gameplay this week, some other Dark Elf assets (we saw the armored cold one yesterday) and one more ritual wallspaper.
I reckon they will keep the skaven reveal until september in order to keep the hype fresh
Grayson Johnson
Is there a point to building the resource buildings as Undead?
Thomas Foster
always build one in non-capital cities.
Nathan Mitchell
Presumably Norsca gameplay as that was already supposed to have been. Dark Elf static models likely.
Brayden Reed
Love how Archaon is like "Well...I sure hate monday. Like reaaaaaaaaaaally hate mondays"
Ethan Roberts
We also shouldn't rule out there being some overlap between the WH1 and WH3 maps. Hell, they could even give us the entire Old World but with less fidelity in the WH1 areas (i.e. unified factions with fewer total provinces).
However I think we'll just see Kislev and maybe Norsca, and the end goal for Chaos will be overrunning Kislev and defeating a spawned Empire army.
And am I the only person who expects to see Kislev as one of the main 4 factions in WH3?
Juan Cox
There are two general options
Daemons, Ogres and Chorfs are just three playable races (like they originally planned for TWW2) but CA claims the cost is justified because they'll also add a "Chaos Realm minicampaign" where you fight the servants of the other gods for control of the realms of chaos
Option B is that Daemons are split into four races sitting up in the Chaos Wastes ready to come down and fuck things up while fighting each other. Chorfs and Ogres are DLC in this case.
Both options seem kind of iffy so there will probably be a lot of whining.
>quite unlikely
WRONG
>Cathay will be added
There will never be a China total war
Liam Scott
Why
there's no one to trade with
Luke Morgan
>And am I the only person who expects to see Kislev as one of the main 4 factions in WH3?
Yes, you are.
Elijah Turner
Faster battles submod, then run a zero armour front line.
Isaac Reyes
>No Norsca stream today too Fuck you CA and fuck your """"""technical difficulties""""""
Brody Hughes
Wew
Lincoln Bennett
Are there any decent mods that tone down or get rid of the filters in battles? I remember VC, WoC and Beastmen getting shit lighting in every battle.
Jaxson Kelly
>Da Bad Moon Gobbos confirmed for Chaos worshippers!
Ryder Turner
No as each game is a standalone. The backlash if CA release game 3 with parts of game 1 would be insane.
Kislev land is in game 1 so can't be in game 3. However, as I stated, they can be a pre-order for the first game.
What is the reason for no Total War: China? Is there not enough units, too similar to Shogun or some other reason?
>Love the idea of Bretonnia but their early game is lame as fuck and it feels like you have nothing to do >Vampire Counts are awesome but the idea of slowly spreading corruption, while cool in theory, is boring as shit in practice >Greenskin are cool but playing as them is just a pain in the ass >retards raid your shit >random tiny little greenskin army ganks one of your side armies >rebellion starts >Cue Benny Hill music as you chase around the enemy missing him by a hair every turn >Beastmen gameplay is incredibly shallow and you just walk in a straight line steamrolling everything >Dwarfs are Dwarfs
I really want to play but everything bores me. Maybe I'll try a Very Hard Empire playthrough.
