/v/ermin really are beyond delusional.
>inb4 "That's not what I meant"
Then what in the fuck do you mean by CA spending "Time" on it?
Thomas Murphy
Is Vlad really that bad of a guy? I don't like playing villains, and the VC seem like cunts. At least the Orks are funny.
Joseph Martin
>implying time spent on making a meme prop for a conf wouldn't have been better spent on making the game ready for launch
ok, drone
Vlad is evil, but not as evil as other vampires
Kevin Cruz
>CA doesn't have the time/resources to make sure faction rosters are complete on launch That was never an option.

They are very happy to die unlike skaven.

Vlad is actually not that bad of a guy. Solved Sylvania's bandit problem, legitimately loved his wife, wasn't cruel to his smallfolk (Treated them better than many empire lords and pretty much every bretonnian noble.) He was power hungry though, and tried to take over the empire in his day (though so was everyone else during the Age of Three Emperors).
TLDR: He's a villain, but he isn't a bad guy.
Caleb Gonzalez
Tell, what exactly has convinced you that anyone who develops games at CA also builds marketing props? Do you think the people who make video games have the skills do build big props like this? Do you think just maybe the people who built it were hired by Sega's marketing department? How are you so impossibly retarded that you think this thing could possibly have taken time away from developing the actual game.
Really, I want you to explain the logic of how building that prop took any time at all out of developing the game.
Elijah Green
CA has been doing this for 30 years. Yet in their newest game I can still sit my siege weapons and archers outside the walls of a fortress and slowly pick away at their massive army until they're reduced to nothing.
Christian Nguyen
how do you not run out of ammo
Eli Roberts
Basically I like Elves and Humans but if you don't like Dwarfs you can fuck right off??
Jaxson James
Stream is up on twitch.
Robert Howard
>spend money on prop instead of on wages for devs/programmers
How do you not understand this?
Tyler Cox
Compared to a regular human? Yes. Compared to other vampires? No. He still uses dark magic and is a power-hungry, vain, sometimes even cruel person. But unlike most vampires he doesn't see peasants as just animals but actual subjects and he has genuine love for his wife, to the point that he (in the end times so not entirely accepted) kills himself so he isn't forced to kill her. He is also reasonable. Only trying to become emperor when every other elector count was already trying to, and he is often willing to compromise. He is evil but probably the least evil warhammer villain.
Grayson Myers
because they have different budgets for different things, and it's not generally an option to switch that money around.
Charles Bell

Brandon Jones
you really do not get how budgeting works
Zachary King
I wonder how many times Dogbert has had to play this battle?
Caleb Evans
He died in combat before being completely crippled by old age so his canon death is actually not that bad. Plus he got to kill Belegar and seize K8P.
Camden Myers
>we have x amount of money >we will spend y on this giant prop >if we didn't we could re-allocate y to development
Wyatt Wright
>be empire soldier >camping in the woods with your brother in arms >yfw you hear "Your demise is certain"
Christian Wilson
Right. And that is not how budgeting works.
Ergo, you do not know how budgeting works.
Caleb Turner
What about ammo? What about the fact that most towers shoot the shit out of your units no matter where they are?
Jaxson Price
>Development wages come out of the same budget as marketing
How do you not understand anything about anything?
And apropos your point CA HAS been hiring more programmers, unlike you I actually keep an eye on the CA job listings page from time to time and assuming that all the listings that have disappeared over the last year or two were actually filled they have been hiring like absolute madcunts.
Not that "Just hire more people lmao" is always a good solution. Hiring people in the middle of a project usually slows that project down since they have to be taught and hooked into the development pipeline. Google Brook's Law

I don't recall him killing Belegar. I thought that little shit Skarsnik did.
Also the whole needing glasses thing gave me a giggle.

Adam Ross
it was said on TotalBiscuits stream that you could control those messages on a faction by faction basis.
you won't get them if you dot want to.
Henry Reed
No. You're just ignorant. It's OK. Everyone is ignorant until they learn.
CA are maximum overjew and only get beat out by Paradox in that regard, but that's not how budgeting works.
Isaac Rodriguez
>those new camera settings
nice
Cooper Lee
I'll bet my left testicle that you can turn that shit off.
It's like the stupid projectile trails in the gameplay trailers for the first game. People complained about it but it ended up being a complete non-issue
Gavin Russell
Skarsnik abandoned the battle after gobbla got killed when gobbla ate a skaven packmaster whole and he cut his way out. The only advantage the goblins had over the other two races (ogre mercs who had betrayed the dwarfs) left when they realized there was no one to pay them. Queek's army (aided by ikit Claw who the council had sent to aid him/spy on him) then slowly beat down the dwarfs until it was just Belegar who queek 1v1ed
Nathaniel Edwards
So I have the better camera mod but cant seem to zoom out as much as the screenshots show, I have the mod subscribed in the workshot and enabled in the launcher, any ideas?

azhag might seem a little terrible, but I'm sure that+20 diplomatic reputations with undead will pay in the end right?
Grayson Fisher
It's Tuesday. Will there be stuff?
Benjamin Torres
I'm sure the horned rat turned Queek into a verminlord to reward him.
Poor gobbla though.
Jordan Lee
Irrelevant.
He gets the stake like all vampire scum.

There's a stream going on right now

Vassalization?
Landon Flores

by killing the whole enemy army without any shitty regen, magic or mount?
Caleb Martin
I've yet to find a way to vassalize every province before they kill each other off

Why would I bother using centigors if I have minotaurs?
Owen Young
How the fuck do i play Tree Hitler? Wood elves are so far up their cities ass with max stacks sitting on upgraded garrisons
Nathan Nguyen
because they are faster and never tire and are your only cav unit
expand north into skarsnik's territories initially, and get enough amber to upgrade the eternal tree to the point where you can confederate
Juan Cook
At what time can we expect stuff?

This playthrough is fucking weird. First, Todbringer and vlad divide the empire between them, leaving altdorf a ruin for me to sweep in and occupy.
Now tree hitler has asked me for military alliance because I've been sacking brettonia.
Nathan Davis
Malagor's got some real weird opening due to how big an asshole the top knots are. You can get by just building up your two stacks for 2-3 turns then moving against them.

ROLLING IN THE DEEP OF MY SORROW
Juan Hill
I don't know why people think so Linearly with Beastmen. Just go everywhere, tear down any undefended town you come across until your army is so hyped up on chaos that you are unstoppable.
Usually with Malagor I just rampage around the Badlands in a loop for the opening turns wrecking any settlement that's easy pickings. Once the easy targets dry up I head North to rampage around The Empire doing the same thing.
Before you know it your Lord is level 20 and all your dudes are gold echelons
