Second for delayed game

...

Do you love Ebdanians?

3rd for exotic Mongolian carpets

3 DAYS!

FINISH YOUR CAMPAIGNS LADS!

DELF GAMEPLAY WHERE
SKAVEN REVEAL WHERE
SKAVEN GAMEPLAY WHERE
CA FUCKING THOUGHTLETS GIVE US STUFF

I don't see much STUFF this week since Norsca is out on thursday

There is going to be a third game right?

It should be coffee edition

Is the lord of the rings mod for medieval 2 any good?

That's they've been telling us.

covfefe edition

Third game? DUDE WE ARE NOT EVEN GETTING A SECOND

Haven't played it but a lot of people praise it.

Skivan?
What is that???

xDDDD

Depends. The battles are good but the campaign is pretty shitty.

Espresso for men edition

Nobody from /twg/ survived

If you also install Divide and Conquer, yes.

What's so good about Divide and Conquer?

>3 days left
>I have just finished my last campaign
>the only campaign I haven't played yet is Empire
>I don't want to play Empire until the DLC drops so I have more interesting enemies
>I have no other games I want to play right now
>I have to read books to bridge the next few days

This is suffering

>teclis
>jaina proudmoore
rule 34 when?

>having to read books is suffering

I'm disappointed user

play through empire as they are right now so you can get the full Ekperience

most loreful mod there is.

Gives more factions, unique settlements and units. Used to be pretty hit and miss but it gets better with every update. Vanilla Third Age Total War feels bland now.

It takes some liberties with lore, but make it better suited to Total War gameplay. More factions etc. Also Khazad Dum campaign is better Angrund campaign.

>Shiny new campaign against Mammoths and Werewolves

vs

>Reading a book I've already read

Easy choice right there m8

>CA where's our new history game!!
>here have an IPad port
To be a histcuck is to suffer the ultimate punishment

Get some new books then nigger.

Buy a new book?

It brings the mod up to date with the cool Hobbit aesthetics but leaves out the silly stuff like Goat Riders etc.

It adds a lot of factions - the original mod has an empty campaign map full of rebels but DaC does a good job at filling them.

Norsca is better than a new book and my finances are limited.

>DUDE RETREAT ACROSS THE RIVER DESPITE BEING WITH YOUR BACK AGAINST THE RIVER BEING ONE OF THE WORST SCENARIOS IN HISTORICAL BATTLES LMAO

This is the single most annoying thing in Attila and modern TWs in general.

Download a PDF you poorfag

You serious mang? Who the fuck pirates books baka

I only buy physical copies of books that are actually worth it, some important pieces or historical stuff. I used to buy everything but space is becoming an issue so if it's just some fiction to kill time I download it and read it on my phone.

Plus, there's a bunch of free stuff that you can legally download because there's no copyright.

>books
ma nigga

know any good warhammer fantasy pdf books?

>teehee hee silly user giant rats don't exist teeheehee

It is now August. Delirium burns through the forest in the hour of its apex. It is Saemrath, the time of the zenith. Orion is afield, engorged and rampant. The Consort-King and his coterie sally forth to bring a rich harvest of lithe young attendants for the maidens of the Asrai. The enshrined ideal of idleness is usurped, and the ensuing bedlam is but little removed from the bray-herd's bestial madness. From Mousillon to Middenland, the Wild Hunt falls upon the hovels and midden-heaps of the toiling races across the Old World.

Ariel alone remains unswept by the ardor of the hour. It is for the Eternal Queen to interpret the auguries, to ensure that Athel Loren may endure. At the Oak of Ages, Ariel engages in the antiquated Asur heresy of time-keeping. At best a confused effort under Athel Loren's capricious canopy, it is only by degrees that Ariel affirms the rectitude of her assumptions.

Regiments of Renown Soon.

When babies learn to draw.

Check Veeky Forums. The WHFB general should have a bunch of pdfs with lore and story in them.

Haven't read much whfb stuff, malus darkblade trilogy is nice, brunner if you want to read about fantasy batman, the sigmar trilogy was pulpy enough

The new world! Operation rapefugee seems to be successful

Depends on what you are looking for. Skarsnik, the Malus Darkblade, and the Orion series are all pretty good. Thanquol is good, Gotrek & Felix is the most prolific and features /twg/-friendly themes like mannlet getting embarrassed

based worst elves poster

I wanna _hug the Everqueen!

What's so wrong about Mannfred? Why do you call him Mannlet?

The Everqueen and the Eternal Queen are two different things. The Everqueen is a religious figurehead who claims to speak for Isha, while the Eternal Queen is the actual avatar of Isha in the Warhammer world. Don't settle for the false prophet.

He and his cronies are assholes, and in the End Times he doomed the world

ANY CAMPAIGN FOOTAGE WHERE.
AHHH IT'S KILLING ME. I'VE KEPT HAVING DREAMS THAT THEY HAD REVEALED IT ONLY TO WAKE UP AND BE CRUSHED

He chose to ruin any chance of sealing away chaos and potentially saving the world by stabbing Balthasar Gelt in the back because he didn't want to bend the knee to Nagash

I retook Jerusalem from the Mongoloids but then all their armies suddenly teleported from Baghdad to be much nearer ;_;
Luckily for whatever reason on their turn they detached all their Generals from their doomstacks

How butt blasted will chinks be if CA makes Total War: China without chinese translation?

He's the Donald Trump of Warhammer. Dumb, proud, selfish. Gets everyone killed in an apocalyptic event because he cannot swallow his pride

Who is the most op LL?

wh-what are you doing!

azhag

Azhag

Would be Durthu if he wasn't so vulnerable to missles.

Honestly it might be Mannfred.

Kemmler.

Wulfrik on his Mammoth

Y-you just wait! After CA done with borehammer, they will make best historical title ever! And all those fantasy cucks going to cry because they shti game not as good as this new historical one!

YEAH!

Can I win this? If so, how?

apparently CA gave early access to norsca DLC to some youtubers.

What the h*ll

Total War: Pontus

holy shit

What's wrong with his voice?

>summer 2019
>CA teases an "important announcement" with a picture of Pagodas
>historyfags think they'll finally get China TW
>the trailer comes out
>historyfags start jerking off to the pagodas and historically accurate chinese units in the trailer
>near the end of the trailer Terracotta men start to walk across the screen
>historyfags start being confused
>a dragon emerges with a magical Emperor on it
>historyfags start to realize what is happening
>"ANNOUNCING CATHAY FOR WARHAMMER 3, COMING SOON"
>trailer ends
>historyfags become alcoholics en masse

How would you react?

Sounds like his throat is coated in Chad cum. Typical virgin youtuber.

I assume you're talking about multiplayer since that is the only place where we can talk about OP.

There's really just one OP LL in MP, there are a lot of solid choices and even more terrible ones.

jfc fimir are ridiculous

>anti large
>armor sundering
>ap
>magic attacks
>110 armor

With furious masturbation to chinese porn

I'd have a fat laugh

Historyfag here, already an alcoholic.

he is one of the only watchable total war youtubers I dont see whats wrong

Armor Sundering is a massively strong ability.

>Still no faction selection like in Rome 2 and Attila with factions grouped by culture they belong too.
I can't stand this shit anymore. What's so hard about it, just make it. Current faction selection is so awful that it drives me mad.

How the fuck did you lose that?

I said it before, I'll say it again
Legend. Arch. Pom.

Relax! Its just a thing bro

Besides, Empire is still just one faction so it doesnt matter

CA Community Engagement Manager here, you're going to love the Warhammer 2 faction select screens! Stay tuned. -A.H.

desu I don't mind either.

Well I mean, Shogun 2 has no japanese translation and they aren't even aware it exists.

Are TW games even popular in china?

How can such a minor thing drive you mad?

Only one I could really suffer when we were waiting for Bretonnia and youtube poofs got to play beforehand really. Not sure I can take an hour of it, but nothing else to do right now anyway.

Not enough factions for it to matter. Now the combined map, that's a whole different story.

are people you should absolutely avoid!
Prince of Macedon is the only choice

terrorgheists ate my guys up like candy.would have won otherwise.

they'd scoff and then return to playing WC3, brood war and shitty shovelware F2P

I'm pedantic and like to have everything sorted.

Steam reviews are filled with people crying about dlcs and chink translation

>since that is the only place where we can talk about OP.
what a retard

Durthu probably, all elf lords end up pretty OP cos they have the most OP yellow and red skill lines which buff their entire army including them.

Alberic can be insanely OP as well though if you betray Louen and start the republic of Bourdeluex, I've literally 2-shotted another lord as him.

The links in this pastebin contain basically all Warhammer stuff you could want to read:
pastebin.com/8rnyAa1S

For recommendations, would you prefer armybooks (Which read more like wikipedia articles detailing the race in question) or do you want novels, which usually tell character focused stories but give less of an "overview"?

For armybooks you can basically just pick out any race you find interesting and read their stuff.

For novels Skarsnik is my favorite.

It may be winnable. Let them in at a point of your choosing then bunch them up and murder them with yari wall. Muskets for morale damage to make them rout fast, archers for general killing and softening them up. Retainers for surgical strikes and reinforcing lines. Your main worry is the katana samurai, who you should avoid engaging in melee if possible.

Many Total War Youtubers are playing Norsca now.

I really hope we see something for the first four factions during these playthroughs.
