LOVE ETERNAL

Post your best screens!

Any good mods for the Empire?
Anyone tried out that Legitimacy mod or whatever its name is?

I expected that but I didn't think he would come that quickly, especially since I was so deep in. I noticed he was camping and moving so he couldn't have been marching.

Why did they want to undo the Foundation update?

There's armor sundering units aside from the RoR gobbos?

"CA is your daddy, now take his dick" - DLC fags

What do wood elves think of high and darkies

>Foundation patch gives most of the old LL new skills that they desperatedly needed
>nerf them immoderately afterwards and make most of them pointless

Did it somehow effect MP fags? That's what usually gets shit nerfed apart from obvious stuff.

MALTHAZAR GELT

they are incapable of thinking, beacose they just smell flowers and eat glue.

What was the point of the immediate nerf? Gelt was finally viable for a gunpowder army. Franz had early game infantry bonuses. I don't fucking get them.

Jesus christ the TWW OST is dogshit

The greenskin one is just awful

Balthasar Gelt (Dark Elf)

All the OSTs are absolute trash aside from Shogun 2 imo

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Haiku are too easy" - whoever wrote all the loading screen haiku for S2

Ded meme

They should bring back Dyck, the soundtracks with Beddow have all been mediocre.

>inb4 muh Attila

The menu theme is literally the only memorable track in that game.

Not bringing Jeff back is always the wrong choice for a total war game.

But that's wrong: Med 1, Shogun 1, Rome 1, Med 2 and Empire all had pretty good OSTs

Its so god damn uninspired
I think they had no budget left for it

>muh THUNKA THUNKA THUNKA

Jesus Christ people, have some self respect.

I was waiting for this bait and you did not disappoint.

What race feeds on the pain of Half Life 3 being dead?

They look down on them for their wasteful exertions in the eternal war for Ulthuan and the presumption that goes with trying to rule the entire world instead of being hyper-isolationist

They think high elves stiff and aloof, while dark elves are unnaturally depraved

Dark Eldar in 40k feed off suffering.
Dark Elves would just enjoy it

I honestly just turn it off.

>I have shit taste and will just call dissenting opinion bait

/twg/ in a nutshell right there.

Trying out that gunner heavy Gelt army. I know it was story and its still really early as i dont have canon/tanks yet. But im wondering what the army comp should be to max it out? Its still early enough that i can easily swap out units and whatnot if its all wrong.

Thanks hot pocket patrol

WHOM, my friends, will be the Skarsnik of Warhammer 2?

They should make the dual wield variant a regular unit via mods

Thanquol or Arkhan

>Empire and Karl Franz is the most popular faction, or at the very least the one with the most playtime/kills
>Empire is barebones as fuck and only have a few extra wizards

What did CA mean by this?

Skarsnik, once the combined map is pushed out.

They should make them be able to switch weapons on the fly like in the TT

>signature posters eternally BTFO

I don't get it, CA loves to slap a shield on an existing unit and call it new, but Black orcs who are known to wield a ton of different shit are left in the dirt.

It's sad when even DoW3 managed to not fuck up the greenskin music but Total War does.

You cant even change the arrow type for archers like in the previous games
So that wont ever happen

Rank the factions in order from most fun campaigns to least fun.

MODS=GODS

Reminder that Norcans are subhumans.

Empire>all others.

More importantly, is there a mod yet that removes this stupid and unnecessary nerf?

In my opinion:
>Skarsnik
>Empire
>Norsca
>Vampire Counts
>Beastmen
>Greenskins
>Dwarfs
>Warriors Chaos
>Bretonnia
>Wood Elves

They said in an interview that they will keep the empire faction "competitive" throughout the whole trilogy

...

G O B L I N S

Do you mean in terms of funny Memes or in terms of turning a garbage race into a playable one?

I really want to enjoy a Bretonnia campaign, but it's so fucking slow on the start up it feels. And you're almost always at the fucking mercy of the Welves.

Yes?

1. Nobody, there's no silly joke race in TWW2
2. Tehenhauin will probably make Skinks decent enough

I want to see Skinks vs Gobbos vs Skaven in the ultimate "Battle of the Cowardly Garbage Troops"

The name needs work

>Tehenhauin
oh fuck, yeah. The Kobold fetishists will be all over that.

Clash of Cowards
Skirmish of the Skittish
Feud of the Afraid

Skinks are brave! BRAVE!

>Just turns into a Steggadon, Abomination and Arachnarok fight.

Which reminds me, i still need my Colossal squigs

That guy is growing horns
And the other one a third eye

technically he has two eyes.

Cold-blooded definitely gave them a great advantage on the tabletop at least. Probably the bravest of the 3

>TFW no Ancient Stegadon

Why even live?

Nevermind it exists, just no Engine of The Gods variant :(

My guesses, RoR unit.

As much as i dislike Vampire counts, I do sort of which they'd given us zombie dragon as its own unit and not a mount also.

Reminder to make use of Skink Chiefs and Skink Priests since they can ride Stegadons.
There's no reason to choose between heroes or monsters when you can have both.

>Radious

Why the fuck are greenskins so shit!

Am I not playing them right? First warhammer campaign. Playing on normal and getting fucking shit on by the Stunties when I have double their numbers. I have over 300 hours on shogun 2 and Medieval. What the fuck am I doing wrong.

>nice legs greenskin

Fears Elves rule added for gobbos when?

Druchii have fatter butts.

>Azhag the Shitter is completely and utterly useless once again

CA does it again

It is now August, and the howls of dying slaves fill the bleak land of Naggaroth with a sweet cacophony. Very soon the Asur will experience such an atmosphere, for the Witch King is finalising his strategy for the coming campaign.

From all over the land come the lords and ladies of the Black Council, and it will be a permanant position for some. Ever eager to guide her son down the path she has divined, the great Hag Queen Morathi spends much time in council with her son. Though some sense conflict between them in the future, Morathi has promised her strongest pupils will join the legions of the Druchii.

In Har Ganeth the cavorting Brides of Khaine spill the blood of offerings to their God, whilst many a would be sacrifice is lost to the blades of the Executioners.
The Beastmasters of Clar Karond rouse their monstrous captives with many a laggard elf suffering in the process. All over Naggaroth the corsair fleets have been sent ahead to pillage and despoil the Black Council's choice of targets, a content glint could be seen in the Witch King's eyes, if anyone had the heart to look at them.

The time is now, the treasonous Asur will soon bow to the true Phoenix King whether they wish it or not. Domination by a best elf soon!

No they are pretty shit. They have like... four good units on their entire roster.

Ah yes the dream Lizardmen Army
1 Oldblood on a Carnosaur
6 Scar Vets on Carnosaurs
3 Skink Priests on Ancient Stegadons
5 Skink Chiefs on Ancient Stegadons
5 Skink Chiefs on Terradons

BEYOND YOUR COMPREHENSION, WARMBLOODS

...

Your starting units are a poor match for Dwarf starting units, use a goblin core supported by trolls, wolf riders to chase quarrelers and grudge throwers, boar boyz are also good because they have AP

Oh and squigs are really good against dwarfs

Lastly upgrade black crag first and get the goblin tinkerer asap for rock lobbas

Gelt is almost exactly the same though? The level 12 requirement doesn't mean shit when you still have to get pistolkorps, plague of rust, route marcher and two points worth of mounts before you run out of necessary shit pre 12.

Well then you're just buttmad, why might I ask?
They're one of the things that exemplify how good skaven could be if they worked together, but they don't, so skaven lose
>reskinned crossbows
Bravo /twg/ never change
>HFGY
?

Yep legitimacy will be my next playthrpugh once I finish this VC play, not sure whether to do SFO or not

>15 monsters
>Magic
>Air support
>16 giant blowpipes for range

So this is it? The definitive army for Lizards

[Embed] those who

>Screenshot sharing and campaign posting encouraged!
You are doing gods work

...

Should i play with sfo?
Or is it unbalanced?

Try it if you want to play one of the vanilla races. It's pretzty garbage with Norsca though.

>Game doesn't automatically name heroes and generals after real non-LL characters

Why? This would be so easy to include. And then once you run out of names you can start using the randomly generated ones.

The fuck is this shit?

Why doesn't Warhammer have meaningful choices?

Must be a bug

Bug when you confederate Bloody Handz.

Enjoy! :-)
