is this normal for dwarf game?

LOVE ETERNAL

I think I've been sold on Warhammer 2, is 2game at 35 euros the cheapest place to get it?

Can we start campaigning to CA for Formations already? They can easily add that shit in before Warhammer III is released, if we whine hard enough.

yes

If you're really dominating I believe so. Think I got mine around turn 50 last game, long campaign by 111

don't we already have that with brettonia?

It's a small step only. They need to add more in. Shield Wall, Phalanx, Loose Spacing, Rapid Charge, etc.

Owning 40 provinces in TLR means you get the chance to reform the Roman Empire by confederating with eligible factions - The Ostrogothic Separatists and Sardinians gladly join Belisarius' empire, and that means that the entirety of the Italian peninsula as well as the islands of Sicily, Corsica, and Sardinia are under Roman control.

In Africa, expansion has been slowed thanks to
>greek sanitation
An outbreak of smallpox along the northern coast means that Belisarius has had to halt his advance westwards.

I would assume its either because it is the closest settlement to the Roman Expedition's starting position and is thus coded to be their province similar to Dumatha for the Tanukhids, or because it is the first town I attacked and reclaimed at the beginning of the campaign, which somehow marked it as my capital

when?

a month or so after launch

>implying

the earliest significant dlc after launch of 1 was 2 months later

A S R A I

>even this game managed to attract an insufferable waifufag avatarfagging spammer

These fucking normie are doing it againt /twg/

Rock the boat

fuck off back to plebbit you stupid piece of shit

how many times are you going to post this

Of course.

tfw reddit even stole national socialism from us

>us
shoo shoo underage.

Go back to sleep Kroak, you old fuck

>thread has been derailed AGAIN

god fuck me I can't for until warhammer II is old news on /v/ so these scum can leave my general

Total War Vietnam when?

>he doesnt waifu

*tip tip*

History is cool and all (loved TW since Rome 1, Rome 2 really soured me and made me wary of TWW1) but unless they get REALLY GRANULAR and pseudo-simulationist I don't see it holding the appeal of TWW's more gamey faction diversity.

Otherwise you get SPEARMANII and the same lack of minor features that TWW compensates for with its other strengths.

>amerifat or gooks
No thanks.

>1312 people updooted

But user, they're already in :^)

We've already got that.

Kroak's favorite skink is the mummified one that hangs out on his platform and is sometimes empowered to fight alongside him whenever he's carted out to yell at a norscan warband until it dies.

spearmanii is a dumb fucking meme

nothing is cringier than lefty memes

>captcha: this is a chinese

has anyone ever used that or the equivalent in other games?
shogun 2 especially had a ton of different formations with cool names that you never used

>us rightwingers eh

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH IRELAND

HOMELAND OF POTATOES

>-9999 public order caused by public outcry when the enemy suddenly attacked with multiple 20stacks while the Victory Any Day Now edict was active and failure to sign the civil rites bill

>Empire Spearmen with shields 400 (90 men)
>Dark Elf Spearmen 450 (90 men)


Better start believing in the spearmanii meme lad, you're playing it

So you mean unit abilities? Because rapid charge is not an army formation also that shit is cancer.

True though that may be, its right. Even early game Medieval 2 is just Spear Militia V Spear Militia+ for the most part

why do I care again?

Nope, because an anvil of infantry with hammers on the flanks and ranged/artillery behind literally cannot be beaten, at least in Total War. Unless you bring a memestack of elephants, arachnarocks, chariots or something similar I guess. Those things just plow through everything.

Really makes u think

>bretonnian shield wall

>bretonnians somehow managed to fuck that battle up

such a Superior nation you are arent you louen ?

Regular tactics wouldn't even work against the undead in a realistic scale. They won't rout or break ever, and they will scare even the most elite troops because they are spooky dead ones

>charge undead in the back
>they lose leadership
heh

>instead of routing they turn around and trap your cavalry.

Tyrion? More like TyriOFF

It kinda makes sense for the more mindless undead since they're basically puppets, its probably more stressful on the vamp/necro to have to make the unit fight in multiple directions. Grave guard/wights etc. though are semi-fully sentient so they might care about losing and being dead again, or they could not since the necro could raise them after the battle anyways.

THE THRONG IS MUSTARD

based blep poster

ready your excuse notes for school or work on 28th lads. The launch waits for no one.

All of them are Clan Rats and Skavenslaves

It's like being attacked by peasants or zombies

But the important question is did she got KROX'ED by one of the kroxigor bull ?

...

B-But if I skip Uni Mommy will get angry!

To be fair, charging against the undead is like charging into a bag of sand. A bag of sand made of fucking spears and bones. That's why fighting the undead is such fucking SHIT. The only way to do it is either with overwhelming explosive firepower, ala the Empire, or by cutting off the skelemans head, AKA the necromancer in charge - who if he's smart will be in the middle of the blob casting spells.

>because an anvil of infantry with hammers on the flanks and ranged/artillery behind literally cannot be beaten

Well, I mean... that's basically how actual field battles WERE fought, when simpler and more direct methods of forcing the enemy to route couldn't be used like attacking the baggage train or the enemy command camp.

what part of distort reality do you not understand?

when?

>Redditrats get Redditspeak

Pottery

...

I wonder if some autist actually gave one of these too their boss

>this Orc 8th Edition roster mod

Oy vey! What if someone makes Hobgoblins before CA can make the DLC?!

how does ammo work exactly, is it tracked for each individual unit and artillery piece or is there some sort of average for the group?
do i lose ammo by interrupting a volley before every unit has fired?

what would be the text for the tomb kangz and the TWW1 factions ?

umm, your real mommy (morathi) will punish you if you don't

>Tyrion caring about non-elves
(lol

CA fucked up

It has to be Teclis

>do i lose ammo by interrupting a volley before every unit has fired?
no

>pleez excoose my nigga, he wuz a kang n shiet,

-settra

Soon™, white devirs. Our time is coming, our victory inevitabre!

how do I stay interested in WRE?
Its just the same garrison defense battles over and over and over again

You become a hardcore Romaboo, and derive pleasure from knowing you're protecting Roman soil

Do you think top tier units will be usable in tw2? I'd like to play a campaign with high tier units for once....

gas the chinks, total war now

What? Whats wrong with high tier units in 1?

>crendor lost his bastilodon with solar engine, temple guard, and second lord
>to skeggi
>by turn 13
>on easy
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

If you're not braindead you've already won by the time you can make them.

most Wights and sentient undead hate undeath. Their wills are shackled to the necromancer controlling them and they crumble when he dies because their souls flee their bodies or they kill themselves.

If you're not brain dead you can have most of the high tier unlocked in 40 turns.

You basically never get to use them unless you gimp yourself on purpose by skipping turns or something, they're just not cost efficient and take too long to make.

You forgot ASININE MORTAL

based on how growth and income works i don't see how.

maybe one chain max.
