You are a fabulously wealthy nobleman living comfortably in the city of Altdorf. From your prestigious portside manor, you have a grand overlook of the very heart of the greatest city in the Empire and all of her racous and colorful people. Today, the city's occupants are particularly mirthful, celebrating some holiday or another the name of which you've completely forgotten already. All you know is that it is an excellent time to drink, and so a drink you have found; three full casks of Sylvanian wine, each a generous "donation" from the city customs office, to be shared with a number of your closest friends and lauded over your political rivals at an extravagent party tonight. Of course, you'll need to sample the wine to make sure that it's up to par with the rest of your preparations, and so you've had a cask brought up to your personal chambers. You hand your servant boy a garish golden goblet to be filled via a spiggot he drives into the barrel, but as he turns the knob his face pales, and he tells you the wine is "stuck in the barrel" like a simpleton. You sigh dramatically and walk over to him, checking that the wine is indeed somehow "stuck", and order him to open the top of the cask. It takes some doing, but the boy finally prys the lid off with the iron poker from your fireplace, stumbling back as he does so and staining your very fine carpet with soot. You turn on him, enraged, but before a single insult leaves your mouth, you feel a tug at the back of your robe. Then another, and another, and a sharp pain on the back of your leg. Even as you whirl about, rats, hundreds of them, cover you from head to toe, biting and chirping in a mad frenzy, and through your blind panic you can see they're pouring from the cask of wine. As you scream and thrash, the bells of the Temple of Sigmar begin to ring, but you are dead long before the seventh and final toll.

The way I see it, early Helf game will be a steam roll with the front row of shielded Seaguard, Archers behind them and Reavers on the sides with one Bolt Thrower behind to trigger the enemy to approach. At least for Tyrion since he faces delves and insolent helves that won't accept his diplomatic love.

>Archers behind them
Just bring more Seaguard

I really like those TWW2 intro videos. They got some great presentation. Most of them are kinda lotr-intro "ripoffs" in a way, but that shit always give me a boner anyway so I don't care.
Wait are these the guys that did the "time commander" thing for TWW1? That was a pretty fun video 2bh.

Play as Dwarf first, they are ez mode

First they promised they wont cut anything. Next thing we know - they are talking about "shaving some parts off because they arent relevant". And I'm certain the end result will be vastly underwhelming.
But hey, CA apologists will defend it anyway, just like they did with the Hoveldorf, 2gates1wall and all the cut content.
They literally said in an interview they werent gonna cut anything. Later on they moved the goalposts and said "we arent cutting anything FROM THE OLD WORLD". Wich is still a fucking lie because they would have to remodel the part of Estalia where Scavenblight is located.
Charles Smith
The other thread is fucking shit. The OP is terrible compared to this one.
Other thread maker should kill himself.

Alright lads, never played Total Warhammer and been played every single historical TW game extensively. Bought Warhammer today and just downloaded it.

>remodel the part of Estalia Tilea, and it's an area you can't traverse or move on already. Adding skavenblight literally isn't cutting anything, they're adding a city to a place that you couldn't even access before.
Sebastian Scott
dwarves are good because all their melee & ranged infantry are stellar and because they have no cavalry, meaning you don't have to micro all that much to play effectively empire are also good on that front but their campaign is a bit more difficult to play

Dawi are ezpz mode. Raze the northern most settlement in Black Crag province. That puzzles the AI so he doesn't attack you for a while, giving you time to get Mount Gunbad ASAP. You need it for cash, it's Marienburg of the dwarves with its gold mine and the other 3rd level 10k building that gives mad cash. Once you've secured Gunbad, just sock up on your basic archer units, some with shields some with 2h weapons, how ever you like and steamroll the badlands.

People are trying to piggy-back on the Helf hate to push the "The combined campaign is going to be super cut!" nonsense.
The arch retard probably made a video about it, thankfully we have the region numbers.

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!
Tyler Russell
We get new stuff today which is - Two episodes of LH and PA being complete retards - Shitty stream with not-Grace showing us that she is on the spectrum 100% and the blond retard managing to play 20 turns only - FFA video with a lot of roleplay cringe - Terrible design on high elves race mechanic, faction bonus and Tyrion leader bonus

The little eshin skaven with the cowls and masks are a mystery. Like, who are they hiding their identity from? I'm pretty sure the man-things can tell you are a rat even if you are wearing a dark hood.

>Warhammer 2 is just Warhammer 1 with less playable races, less playable lords, a worse map, more focus on the sea despite no naval battles whatsoever, and another train of DLC to buy
...guys, I'm having major buyer's remorse right about now. How the fuck is this Warhammer "2"? There is nothing new, not even any real improvements. Just different races and a different (worse) map. It's the same broken ass game made by 34 different teams that aren't talking to each other and each is just making up shit as they go along.

RE: The elves being underpowered meme - Someone mentioned in the chat during that (aweful) twitch stream that in the launch build, helves have already gotten a buff. No dev WOG on that so take with grain of salt. It makes sense considering how they've been stressing numbers are already different and the Helves obvious performance in multi.
