Why does the religious tech branch for the Romans in Attila get rid of their pre-existing technology and infrastructure?
Does CA seriously think the cause of the dark ages was the propagation of Christianity?

Wasn't anticipating this I guess I'm just leaving those 3 provinces and hiding behind a wall.
Evan Bell
Ahhh, /twg/, the eternal general...
Aiden Ortiz
Do people think colonistion should cost you soldiers, does GCCM mods give tier 0 settlements unique maps? Nice image OP
Chase Hernandez
Soon.

If you think CA would ignore a creative goldmine, then yes. Cathay will be critical towards marketing the game, Ind and Nippon will be their source of sweet sweet DLC bucks. They've already shown their willingness to go outside the lore and also to morph geography to suit their needs. They have little reason not to include Cathay and very good reasons for why they should be included.

I've got a nice African murder tapestry to show you guys later. Was Honorious vs an African warlord and slightly outnumbered and miss micro'd (forgetting to put troops into testudo) and lots of hot cav on cav action. Neat lost the battle due to their ranged support destroying my troops by hitting their back. Mobile testudo is kinda shit but would have been fantastic to have as I manuever my troops around.
Wyatt Diaz
Not that user but stop huffing glue. Cathay, Ind, and Nippon have ZERO chance of appearing
Dylan Sullivan
aside from TW players, the other huge portion of the fanbase is warhammer neckbeards that played the TT
are you actually dumb and don't know this? do you think normies care about this game? it's not THAT popular
Jayden Hill
why the fuck dwarfs don't use polearms or halberd ? Are they retarded ?
Ian Jackson
In answer to the previous thread, this is one example of unique models being added in. Why do anons like Apollo not want to share their secrets? Also, does anyone know what ENB/FX he appears to be using in the screenshots? (I hate when modders don't state this clearly).
Ian Scott
They'll be fantasy equivalent of 'Sagas', or be like the upcoming dlc for rome 2
Dominic Carter
i can't imagine how delusional you have to be to think tabletop players make up even a large minority of TWWH1 players
Juan Morris
Generally, yes.
Man, dwarf troops with halbred would be OP as shit. Anti large, armored, armor piercing..

THAT I can see happening though it's still doubtful
Chase Bell
do you ever venture outside this general? take a look at the various forums, the TT is heavily referenced ind discussions
either way I think this convo is finished, you are fairly dumb and I need to go practice my art
Juan Nelson
If you colonize a ruin it already costs soldiers.
Oliver Baker
What's the unique model? Just looks like texture work to me.
Lincoln Morris
to the north-west, our Nord allies have been busy it seems
we push our northern army further to the coast in hope of profiting from the war raging over there, picking up additional troops on the way
Evan Gomez
the ai has learn how to corner camp I know it does but SHOULD IT
Adrian Rivera
In this battle, my Eternal Gourds had really no issue keeping the Greatswords at bay. Reminded me of how Greatswords could really use a buff, would you agree?
Isaac Lopez
It should cost growth from an adjacent province you control OR soldiers
Jackson Perez
crops gotta be tilled and houses lived in
Hudson Parker
>those traits the perfect ally
Alexander Watson
Rock the... boat?
Mason Perry
Yes. I get that it doesn't make a fantastic amount of sense, but there needs to be a means in the gameplay to prevent a single army from sweeping through a region of the map behind chaos/beastmen and colonize everything without a considerable cost. In this case, the cost is leaving yourself in a very vulnerable position, and it becomes important to secure the area before settling in.
John Stewart

Dylan Hughes
It kind of makes sense because that's, historically, what many armies actually did. Sure they would have attracted emigrants, but Alexander the Great for example left behind Macedonian settlers all over his Empire - who later went on to become the ruling Graeco-Macedonian elites.
Liam Anderson
What a fucking bootlicker

It does kinda make sense as the romans would get men to garrison new border towns when they retired, this was a whole subplot in HBO rome
Brody Gomez
this is why loose formation was a mistake
Andrew Adams
busy and successful, looks like we'll have to kick some Aldmeri ass rather than organize an expedition into Redguard lands
Samuel Sanchez
I JUST WANT TO PLAY IT NOW
Chase Collins
I sure hope the sagas game gives us supply lines, so it's something besdies attrition to represent soldiers dying, retiring. It was either ck2 or M&B where veterans would come to your aid if there was a rebel uprsing

Archers are for shooting horses with flaming arrows or whistling shot to morale break. Heavy shot is pretty weak. Standard shot is garbage.

eternal guard are hands down the best t1 unit even without shields. Armor piercing, anti-large and they can be buffed so hard in a campaign that they can trade with chosen. But ye greatswords arent that great for an elite infantry unit.
Dominic Adams

Yeah, they're ridiculously resilient tarpits for how much they cost. Won't neccesarily win fights by themselves but they can brick-wall pretty much any other infantry unit long enough for support.

So why is it that the grand strategy portion of Total War games suchs so much these days?
Two thing s really nail it I think. First is the retarded army limit where you have to recruit generals to lead armies. I mean it makers sense in some ways but since you can't send out reinforcements to armies, it just slows the game down.
Then there's the stripped down building trains and fixed slots, fixed garrisons, and such. This is just straight up ass in my opinion. It takes any management and empire-building out, and boils it all down to this dumb puzzle about which slot to put which building in for optimal efficiency.
I mean I understand a game like Warhammer is about WAR, not detailed management, but it's still just a fucking mess, and it's unforgiveable in the historical ones. The campaign sucks because you have no flexibility. You spend two hundred turns turtling until Chaos wipes everything esle out then you win. If you try anything else you lose because there is no adaptability, no room for actual strategy. It's just a case of exploiting the mechanics.
So. Are there any mods that specifically address this?
Luis Brown

if dwarfs weren't so traditionalist they'd be the most advanced race on the planet
Liam Jones
The more you've played of the series you more you'll realise it's stuck between a rock and a hard place. Every change they made was in response to something else in the game going wrong or not functioning as intended or being downright dumb.
Alexander Flores
>denying skaven achievements FUCKING RACISTS
Adrian Stewart
get out meh swamp
Cooper Thompson
I'm pretty fucking sure that guy meant more than stacks of doom only Like having multiple armies, breaking off armies and recombining them later, managing garrisons to upgrade them manually, what buildings you pick actually having an impact etc.
40 limit just caters to the Battle side of the game, which seems to be massively in favour of getting all the development budget.

did it a week ago or so after a request, just done a got one so gave it a shot.

I believe the idea is that all their hand weapons are tool-like. Axes, Hammers, Crossbows; regular tools any Dwarf would be familiar with.

It is now September, and the return of the true Phoenix King is nigh. All across Naggaroth the legions of the Witch King beckon to their sovereigns summons.
Surveying his skin cloth campaign map for the last time, Malekith knows to be ever weary of the roving tribes in the north; and also not to be ignorant of any ambitious dreadlords. Word has reached him that his mother has marched south without order, it is of little consequence, though the rumour that she has resurrected her cult of pleasure is troubling.
On Ulthuan his spies report that Tyrion is engaged with another cult, taking advantage of the conflict could allow the Witch King to establish another foothold on Ulthuan.
Further south where the shifting sands of Araby blow, it has been reported that the servile men of the Asrai have conquered swathes of land, the riches of this land could well aid Malekiths coffers if he chose to wrest it from them. Though another rumour, perhaps untrue, but not worth ignoring is that a hold of the ratmen is situated somewhere in this land.
Finally from out of the land of Lustria little has been heard, the most valuable pieces of information being that a notable lord of the lizardmen is currently fighting human settlers by himself, it could be advantageous to eliminate such an opponent as swiftly as possible. As for the other piece of information, it has been heard that the whoreson Teclis is leading an expedition on the southernmost tip of Lustria, supposing he survives the dangers of the land it would give Malekith great pleasure to have a rematch.
Regardless of where the first strike is made Malekith will control the vortex and regain his homeland. Domination by a best elf soon!
Jaxson Ramirez
How do you play the Jews in Attila, I'm surrounded by Sassanid shits and my axe troops are weaker than my regular desert spears. HELP
Dominic Green
Yeah, this.
Campaign in TW:W and like, Rome 2 and Atilla mostly just boild down to building 1 of the gold bulding, one of the growth building, and one of the wall buildings in every place. No thought or planning. It's just clicking end turn over and over until you have all the squares available. That's not fucking strategy.
You're inevitably gonna just have 1 region as your recruitment capital and everything else for gold, because that's the only way it makes any fucking sense. But that means you have to tediously march a General/Lord the fuck across the map every time you need reinforcements.

Pass me the Crossbow kid I just need to tighten this screw before we can take the Gyrocopter for a ride Because Fantasy builds upon other fantasy tropes, and they fight underground mainly, where that isn't advisable

Why didn't they just duplicate one head and attach it together, then put in it on the zombie/forest dragon animation? This is not even an hour of work, they just couldn't even be assed to put that little effort into one of the largest monsters of the faction.
Nah, just make it blue and call it a new unit. So disappointing.

Wall building should basically make a settlement a walled city deal and be primarily useful if your capital isn't available for whatever reason, or you have a really far away settlement you want to use to let armies run away to. Won't affect garrison, settlement level should do that.
Christian Baker
Please post the Total Warhammer faction rolling chart.
Evan Scott
axes in shield wall as your anvil, then hammer with you BIG ARMORED CAMELS. If possible try to avoid war with the Sassanids early on, instead use your magi to spread judaism and try to get provinces to revolt and expand that way. Eventually when you feel you are strong enough you can take on the sassanids and their endless savaran/armenian doomstacks
Alexander Brown
I think we will see some obscure shit like a playable Kurgan faction in W3 but I dont think we will ever see Ind/Cathay/Nippon in games.
