A S R A I

tfw no qt dreadlord gf

Okay I understand the basic formation for my army but in the case of undead, my shit's all different speeds and my reinforcements only reach the battle when it's finished. Any tips for managing the approach?
I'm playing campaigns first instead of battles for co-op but might do that just for practice, haven't played a lot of TW.

I'm probably panicking too much about artillery and missiles I don't just take my time and let the zombies crumble under the fire.
Although I fucking loathe missile cavalry now with this god damn slow speed.

G N O B L A R S

TO THE FOUR CORNERS

>my shit's all different speeds and my reinforcements only reach the battle when it's finished. Any tips for managing the approach?
alt+drag entire army, force walk, 3x speed
they'll get into position eventually, just don't alt+Drag entire army into range of their ranged

>tfw no witcher total war mod for med 2

Fbm

gets the noggin' thinkin'

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH IRELAND

...

>all the sasanaigh mad at this
it'll revitalize historical total war

What could it be?

...

LOVE ETERNAL!

...

I can finally use this for shitposting here.

razing should be removed from the game
such an uninteresting mechanic

WEN WUN OF US GOES TA WAAGH WE ALL GOTO WAAGH

you should be removed from the game

Lizardmen stuff when?

Get doggos

Then how do you put incompatible enemy settlements out of the game?

Who the FUCK honestly gives a single fuck about Ireland except for Irish people and stupid Americans who think they have Irish blood? It's like making a fucking game about Canada and just Canada.

alri Nigel

Good point.

If it's JUST about Ireland then it might be pretty meh. But if it's about the entire North Atlantic then it's going to be peng.

This week we will finally get our in-engine trailer for The High Elves!

Irish are the jews of the British Isles
>remember muh potato famine!
>we irish are superior to british!
>muh whiskey!

*steps into general and sits on the comfiest sofa*
*stretches legs and sighs profusely*
alri

uh, i dunno, maybe chaos should be removed from the game?
dummy

Easy peasy. CA had some modder do that and it was literally ready on release day.

Don't forget
>muh freedom
>proceeds to chimp out for fucking years killing loads of other white people

how does one play dwarves?

Uh... what's there to know? You have the best troops, the best economy.

Defensively, even when attacking.

1. kill urks
2. pray to valaya
3. ????
4. WAZZOCK

like you would any other nation

Shoot shit, explode shit, burn shit.

"white" """"""people"""""""

angloids deserved everything that came their way, a deep racial anger will pour forth and shove them once and for all into the north sea

I do not get this whole skaven meme.
We know that the Empire met with the skaven during the black plague, so they must have some kind of records about the ratmen. Yet they hunt down everybody who mentions them. Is it an inside job?

is there a mod which makes it so that karl franz' visor is down?
hell, is there even a version of his model that has his visor pulled down?

COME OUT YOU BLACK AND TANS, COME OUT AND FIGHT ME LIKE A MAN

the eternal anglo doomed this world.

Higher ups know about them, they just try not to let the folks know that there's an entire empire of the damn things under their feet all day every day.

None that I know of but it should be possible to make one. There's one that does it for Boris Todbringer.

DON'T

DAB

daily reminder that high elves wont be getting a cinematic in game engine trailer

So this is the ultimate explanation?
That is why hundreds of hundreds need to suffer and die?

More or less. Complete public knowledge would send both the empire and the rats into a panic and cause even more problems
Grimdark~

Is the empire the hardest faction?
>start with barracks you're want to replace
>orcs in the east, rebels, beastmen from south, marienburg that you really want to conquer in the west
>Differently from dwarves and bretonnians, the other factions of your race are actually a treath
>Garrisons for unwalled tier 5 settlements are a joke
>lores of magic and good artillery hard af to get (quests aside)
>LLs' a shit at low levels and hard to recruit early
>the offices buffs are weak, to make themost of them you need to swap them around constantly
>is kislev and ostland get in a war chaos is gonna roll them and you
>victory conditions requires you to have strong positions in the outskirts of the empire (norrland, ostland) or you're not going to get settlements razed periodically
Just finished a 186 turns campaign, god bless bretonnia and the dwarves for the help on chaos.
Still pretty fun though.

>None that I know of but it should be possible to make one
would this be hard to do for someone who's a novice at using 3D modelling software?

Tomorrow is the day right?

END
IT

bretonnia is the absolute worst faction

Arthurian fantasy saga would be Bretty cool. Recruit the legendary lord Merlin!
Be the evil wizards!

They have a comfy start though. Can kill greenskinz to rank their Lord's up into monsters and aren't in a frantic rush to try and just survive.

How can the skaven breathe under the ground?

With their gills duh

Are there female units in the new dlc??

No idea mang, could be worth trying.

It was already done before, game wasn't that hot. Good aesthetics though.

It's all a conspiracy, dude.

Yeah, and then chaos comes and you iterally (LITERALLY) can do nothing about them.

>ywn explore that barrow mound

Can somebody give me a quick rundown of the War of the Beard?

huffin warp gas
and generally being born holding their breath and/or using the guts of another as an air filter

>explore it
>skaven everywhere

I explored your mothers mounds last night.

It makes literally zero sense when the dwarfs have been fighting them for hundreds of years and when their capital is located right next to the cities of Tilea.

It's probably an idea that GW introduced in the lore without thinking too much about it and couldn't get rid of afterwards.

why does the game always get boring at turn 60-80

WAIFUFAGS GET OUT OF MY GENERAL RRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Depends on the campaign imo. Norsca and Wood elves get pretty crazy in the late game.

*triple mammoth charges for the 1000th time*
cray

cool whats the name of this book

>Mausstadt literally meaning mousecity
Bravo GW! I miss warhammer fantasy ;_;

If either manfred or franz arrive I'm fucked
Also best use of purple sun, it does kill cav alright but the cost is just too high

pass gonna stab pls

Sigvald was probably getting wet.

...

what did he mean by this?

>old world is split between high elves and dwarfs
>both live in peace
>one day malekith decide to go murder a caravan of dwarfs , disguised his troops as high elves
>dwarves send emisarry to pheonix king to ask him what the hell happened
>pheonix king is struck by autism and cut the emissary beard
>dwarf king is pissed
>follow a long war where both the dwarven and elf empire are left in ruin , that the dwarf still not have recover from and pushed the high elves back to ulthuan for them to almost never leave

>Dark Elves using High Elf armour and weapons make false flag attacks on Dwarf trade caravans
>Dwarfs send a diplomat to the High Elves demanding compensation
>High Elf King, Caledor II, is pretty cunty and says the Dwarf High King, Gotrek, can come to Ulthuan and beg for his money
>Gotrek replies that he's not going to do that, and demands twice the amount he asked for earlier
>Caledor has the diplomats beard shaved (hence "War of the Beard" among the Elves. Dwarfs call it the War of Vengeance)
>so war breaks out
>lasts for 500 years
>notably Gotreks son, Snorri, is killed by Caledors brother Imladrik
>in turn, Imladrik, is killed by Snorris cousin Morgrim
>Caledor arrives to personally take command, since his generals keep losing
>Dwarfs eventually destroy ever High Elf colony in the Old World, except their colonial capital Tor Alessi
>Dwarfs lay siege to Tor Alessi for the 14th time
>Caledor is killed in single combat by Gotrek, Dwarfs take the OG phoenix crown as compensation for grudges and losses
>Ulthuan comes under attack by the Dark Elves, who are taking advantage of the drain on Ulthuan that the war has been
>new High Elf King orders the colonies to be abandoned
>most obey, those that don't migrate to Athel Loren, becoming the Wood Elves

It used to be that the Elves and Dwarfs had different versions of the diplomat incident but this is, to my knowledge, the current canon.

Rock the... boat?

...

NO

i am fucking buttmad
fuck whoever memed me into playing as bretonnia

i have 3 (THREE) stacks fighting 1 (ONE) stack of chaos
their chaos warriors fuckin SHRUG OFF any of my charges while fucking my foot squires up the ass, each charge kills 2 of those pieces of shit
not to mention those faggots on winged horses get fucking destroyed by fucking anything taller than a chaos dwarf

100 turns wasted on this shitty faction
fuck all of you

It's from the 6th Edition rulebook.

>>pheonix king is struck by autism and cut the emissary beard

BY SIGMAR NO

works for me

i hate half the GCCM maps

You are a charlatan and you are not my nigga

And I love a good quarter of them.
Too bad you can't easily chose them.

Dwarf emissary was impolite and Caledor II was a well known faggot..

>current canon

good to know this shit changes time to time

Carcassonne is pretty annoying early game.
>start at war with a faction whose lands you cannot occupy, who reside in an attrition-inducing hellhole
>immediately get a -20 public order malus until you wipe out some greenskins or wait 20 turns
>the only green skins nearby you can wipe out aren't even at war with you
>you have to go through the vietnam forest to get to them
>by the time you get there they will probably already be wiped out by Belegar whom they start at war with
>even if they're wiped out you still retain the -20 public order penalty because you yourself did not kill the greenskins
>the -20 public order penalty affects all provinces so it will spread to any regions you happen to conquer as well
Aside from camping and waiting for confederation the only way to expand early game is to somehow field a force that can take on Tilea and Estalia while at the same time defending your home region against greenskin public order revolts and wood elves.

>pick up TWW a few days ago
>start empire campaign, just hit turn 133
>campaign map FPS plummets, screen has what can best be described as a "heartbeat" with everything ticking like a metronome, including camera movement

I'm pretty damn sure I should be able to run the fucking campaign map at a constant 60 on minimum settings. I've been checking google but there doesn't seem to be anything resembling a fix, although I did find a youtube video detailing what i'm experiencing right now. Do I just need to accept that any campaign beyond turn ~120 is going to become unplayable?
