/twg/ - Total War General

Before Empire and Rome 2 were made this was our franchise. These are..good games. Our immersion thrived here, in the settlement building phase and within the family trees of our generals. They watch over us.
We were happy, we open trade routes, immerse ourselves in sandbox experiences, we had expansions and quality games. But Sega has destroyed those times.
Sega talks about how they will help us, streamline the series.
They put us to sleep with golden promises of new features and eras, when we wake all the game mechanics we had are gone. STOLEN...
THEY take our younger brothers and turn them into little shills. PAH!!
So we must fight... There can be no PEACE
No peace with Sega. Men of greed, DLC and lies...
There can be only WAR....

there's a torrent for the main game, it's 10GB I think

then you download the launcher, you smash it into the main game's folder, you make an account, you run the exe, and you're set

no

link pls

Yeah, obviously they just did a PG-13 snuggle and had a little talk.

HEAVY HORSE AT YOUR COMMAND

Truly Attila is the best title

If they were any more explicit it would be legit porn.

why are gamers such fucking weirdos?

Darthmod or Imperial Splendour?

How long until I war with Manfred

all you's need

>Believes that Malekith doesn't have a dick, something which is 100% not true and directly contradicted by established facts
>"I'm obviously an authority on what is and isn't canon! There's no implication of anything untoward happening in this story"

Fucking kek
You're welcome to keep your head buried in the sand though.

Light horse in Atilla is the equivalent of heavy horse in every other title so it's pretty accurate tbqh

>Elves at Helm's Deep

Oh what a surprise
House Dagoth actually did something for once

>don't be see sex where there isn't any
>"k-keep you headburied in the sand!"

maybe stop being so obsessed with sex my man

Gotta give them more credit for their incredibly meta approach to the game then. They really seem to have thought hard about it.

The Helm's Deep sequence is the worst part of the LoTR movie trilogy, except possibly for all the shit tier comic relief they ruined Gimli's character with.

>CA's original target for the trilogy was 16 factions
>first game already has 9 factions and 8 sub-factions

How many can we reasonably expect by the end of game 3? I don't know much about the lore, but it's looking to be quite a bit higher than 16.

It has no place in total warhammer, the maps are already too small and the pace is too fast. Artillery would be even more useless then it already is.

Ireland

make a stack and raze the little Sylvania to the ground

>ruined Gimli's character

Gimli didn't have a character.
Nor did Legolas, or anyone that wasn't Frodo, Sam, Gandalf, maybe Aragorn and the rest of the hobbits.

It's more believable at this point that you're just trolling around than that you genuinely don't think they sleep together. Nobody could be that dense.

It'll be more. They've learned that people are way into them fleshing out factions that don't have books, and that they make prime dlc content, so they'll pump those factions out hard.

If I start a game as Wulfrik and kill/beat Throgg in combat, can I then recruit him to being a legendary lord on my side?

Also, should I settle all the Norsca territories and only worry about making the shrines to the chaos gods on southern territories?

we'll likely to reach 16th faction with the second game

>Artillery is useless

Yes and Yes.

With our Southern Borders secure we march to liberate Karak Azgaraz from Skarsnik horde, but word soon reached the Emperor that he had made peace with those who took 8 peaks from him, and then Stirland attacked the Greenskins under Grimgor for some reason

Don't mind me, just confederating this bike

Are those portraits mods?
Do they have those models in battle too?

I'll believe they fucked when it's explicitly said in story or by a writer.
Until then, it's open for interpetation.

>tfw bringing tilean civilization to the backwater border princes.

Praise Myrmidia

this . expect Araby, Vampire Coast, hell even Amazons at this point.

Dunce user reads: The Bible
>"Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination."
>"Now obviously this passage does not imply anything about same-gender sexual relations, it simply prohibits men from lying down next to each other"

That's you. That's literally the level your logic is on.

No it's bons varied generals

People keep laughing at us getting Amazons, but they have a Bloodbowl team so sure I'm not ruling them out.

...

how do i horse archers?
this battle was a complete clusterfuck
the autoresolve said i had a much stronger force but this happened

"lie" can be both lie and have the sex.
In that case it describes sex.
In M&M's case, it's open to interpretation.

>tilean civilization
MAMMA MIA

Playing Darthmod right now and god fuck I though the Drum and Fife thing was going to be awesome. But the sound quality is so shit and if more units next to each other march it drowns out the whole sounds, because it is way too loud. Also the only battle music that seems to exist is the last mohicans.

What is the best map mod for Total Warhammer 1?

I see three on the workshop, but they're not compatible so I need to choose one. Do you guys have any recommendations?

>In that case it describes sex.

Why?

It doesn't EXPLICITLY say it, so I'm saying that it's open for interpretation :^)

Some of these border prince units are really tough.

...

Go ask a priest which one it means, they pretty much hold rights over the book.

So Manfred is on the move, whilst Todbringer seeks an allaince after Ostermark and Ostland warred him, let us hope chaos does not attack now as the empire is truly divided

are you using just an unlocker + reskin mod or something more?

Can someone tell me which beastmen/chaos units count as large? Do Chosen count as large?

>Go ask a priest which one it means

Uh, no.
The WRITER has word of God, so until the guy that wrote Leviticus say that "lie with mankind" means "Do a fuck up the butt" it's still open to interpretation. :^)

Crusade Sylvania, raze vampire castles to the ground. Sigmar wills it.

Besieging the other border prince faction. Wrecking their walls with dwarf mercenary cannons.

tfw I find TWW sieges more fun than a lot of total war sieges

Chosen are just counted as infantry

Unless something is the size of a troll or a horse it doesn't count as large.

The largest thing in the game that isn't counted as Large are Skin wolves.

i really dislike nord unit models. All except towns guards and plate elite look extremely ugly!

No, the person who holds the rights to the book is Word of God.
So you should go and ask the Queen of England if you're talking about King James Bible.

Didn't even know there was more than one bible desu

SFO, Unlocker, reskin mod and the southern realms mod. I also have the proper compatability mods

I CANT WAIT 20 MORE DAYS WHO TIME MACHINE HERE?

He really is going to be fucked up, the HE ability in grand campaign will be really good as you can stop men fighting each other and focus on the undead

Rate my Tilean Empire. I am also in a triumvirate alliance with Karl Franz and Louen.

Also look at that fucking Barak Varr

Then why did you say the writer earlier when we were talking about the Warhammer story?
The people who write the armybooks for Warhammer don't hold any of the rights to what they write.

>Didn't even know there was more than one bible desu

Are you actually underage? What the fuck.

bumping

...

With Skarsnik this weak I may be able to actually win, not to Slyvania but the Grey Mountains lads

Let's take a moment to appreciate how much of a bro Malekith used to be before Morathi and the Flames of Asuryan fucked him up.
Fun fact: Alandrian is the father of Hellebron.

Skin wolves aren't considered large?
Wtf?

Because when the writer dies, the right of canon goes to whoever he or she gives the rights to.
Like Tolkien and his son.

>Are you actually underage? What the fuck.
I'm not religious and have never been given a religious education.

Yeah pretty much this.
Chaos chosen look bigger than horses yet they are not large.

I wish the game outright told you which units are large and which aren't.

Skarsnik will die of attrition next turn whilst Striland has taken a good amount of Slyvania

help me

>playing Rome II
you're beyond help

...

Best wizard in empire armies if I'm going mix roster with 40 units?

What the fuck is "Right of canon", you're clearly not talking about copyright.
You literally just made that shit up, didn't you?

I give up, if you're willing to literally just make shit up for the purpose of your argument then there is less than no point talking to you. You have gone beyond burying your head in the sand. You have constructed an apocalypse shelter 1000 feet below sea-level to avoid having to face the obvious.

warhammer is too easy
tilla is too hard
i'm playing hard difficulty

>I wish the game outright told you which units are large and which aren't.

For what it's worth, they're adding that in Warhammer 2.

>tilla is too hard
I know that feel, although you get used to it. Still hate that a single small mistake fucks the whole campaign

If someone tomorrow shits out a 5000 page long Warhammer Fantasy story but isn't approved by GW it's just gonna be fanfiction and not canon because they have the copyright.
Copyright includes what's canon and what isn't.

Also haha funny joke

That's why you save-scum

>Copyright includes what's canon and what isn't.

Again, the people that write stories for Warhammer don't own the copyright, it's all work-for-hire for Games Workshop and the writer owns nothing. So why do you keep talking about the writer if you mean copyright?

BY SIGMAR, NO!

How so? didn't read the book obviously.

Drags on too for way, waaaay too long, also the elves coming to help is a bunch of bullshit and doesn't make sense.

>mfw I was posting in the old thread

>raided the shit out of Wintertooth when I was bashing norsca together
>spent like, thirty turns raiding them and consolidating my encampments
>all of this raiding makes Kislev and Karaka Drak really like me
>decide to ally them both to keep them from attacking me while I grow in strength, fully planning to betray them
>Top Knots attack Kislev, decide to jump in for easy money
>Norsca is riding south like a bunch of fucking heros to save Kislev from the greenskins hordes
>mfw this isn't lore friendly at all
>decide fuck it, Norsca will be the shield of humanity this campaign
>currently trying to get Karl to not hate my guts

I've changed Franz, I swear!

horse archer vs horse archer fights are retarded, I always autoresolve them

Tips for Empire in TWW? Where should I go after uniting Reikland?

To the main menu, select a fun faction to play.

Dunedain Rangers came to help in Helm's Deep, not Elves.

I'll make it step-by-step so you understand:
>GW asks writer to write story
>writer writes absolutely shit story
>GW says "mm ok very good"
>story is canon
on the other hand:
>writer writes excellent masterful story that will be praised for centuries to come about some GW franchise
>GW never reads it/does not approve it
>story is not canon

I don't even know what the fuck you're arguing.
If the writer is a writer-for-hire, and doesn't actually own the copyright then no, his stuff is not canon until the one that hired him says it is.
