History information: totalwar.com/blog/what-the-teams-are-working-on-07-06-17 totalwar.com/blog/a-total-war-saga-announce-blog Summary: Saga title is a spiritual successor to Rome 2. Some are guessing the map will be Britannia. Campaign pack coming up for a past history title, probably Rome 2. Next big history game is a setting they've never done before. Will feature "important character relations that occur between the major personalities in the game."
Workshop for Warhammer 2 hasn't been enabled yet but will be. Manually installing mods still works. Some nice little mods (better camera, resized lords, climate battles, thicker dust, bigger units): drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B9AaipzJB6FeWk5KRy1UVXVpMTg

What the fuck is this +25 vampric corruption I'm getting as Kroq'gar and does it go away?
Brayden Nguyen
update the OP you homo
Connor King
fast projectiles=more shots per battle=higher damage overall
simple logic, and they also have the utility of hitting fast moving targets and accurately hitting generals.
Benjamin Reyes
Mod for jezzails when? Mod to give Mommy dark magic when?

They also have a huge anti-large bonus.

Before Mortal Empires comes out I'm going to give the Chaos invasions into the Old World one last send-off. A VH/VH Empire campaign where I fight every battle against Chaos, and Legendary Lords cannot lead the charge. I'm expecting 40k-tier losses and doomed generals giving their last stand to buy time for more armies to reach the front line but by Sigmar, the Empire will endure.
William Martin
You mean >Dragon Princes(actually dragons)

What should I recruit first, a second lord, or my first mage/noble? Also, prince or princess? I'm playing as Teclis because magic is the crutch that I need as I'm absolute dogshit at these games.
Connor Butler
Why do they have to build this as soon as I start a ritual
Levi Adams
they can't arc their shots though and are mostly useless in a siege.

For Vamps it gives +50 vampiric corruption and +25 in all neighboring provinces, which is why Kroq Gar's capital is always having vamp corruption problems
David Nguyen

Daniel Morgan
Do Skaven and the Lizardmen go to the toilet like humans / dwarfs / elves or do they just poo on the go, I've not seen any of the soldiers doing so during a battle.
Cameron Reyes
It's been sort of soft confirmed ever since they were mentioned by CA before Norsca came out Kind of weird that it would appear at this point if it's supposed to be saved for TWW3

how would that even work, isn't AoS just a bunch of floating rocks in space where you teleport around for fights and shit
Ryan Parker
>Nagash >VC Placeholder is placeholding.
Logan Ramirez
I have been watching dark elves videos and I can't help but wounder whats so bad about revots and low public order?
As far as I can tell it looks like a sound strategy to keep a province at low public order and constantly spawning low level armies in order to kill them, take slaves, and train your lords. Maybe even keep a lord with slaver bonus near that province for a constant supply of slaves.
What am I not considering here?
(expecting an actual answer from someone that's not a complete retard, if that's not asking too much around here nowadays)
Kevin Martinez
But Dwarfs suck and Vamps are good?
Carson Wilson
he seems happy
Dominic Ortiz
Yes, it is heresy. You will be purged.
Isaac Gonzalez
It's absolutely legit, I like my provinces in order but farming rebellions is a fine way to level up and get lots of slaves
Parker Bailey
>isn't AoS just a bunch of floating rocks in space where you teleport around for fights and shit Yes and no. The descriptions of the realms are very vague. Some of them are 'without boundaries' (like the Realm of Shadow), while others are unfathomably large. Like I said, the lore's all sorts of retarded right now so it's tough to say.
Gameplay wise I'm thinking it would be similar to DoWII with a greater emphasis on individual unit abilities rather than just standard troops.
Austin Robinson
would a NO confederation mod work with the vortex campaign well?
Lucas Reyes
AoS is built for mobage
Cameron Long
One of the biggest problems I have with Age of Sigmar is that it has no real setting. If the Mortal Realms were just regions of the world blasted to hell in eight different ways I wouldn't be so against it.
If there's going to be a bunch of big guys in armor smashing shit, let's go full hog for 40k.
Gavin White
The only disadvantage I can think of is that it ties up one of your armies, but I farmed rebellions to build up my dread waifus and get those nice dragons, and I had no issues with my economy
Nathan Martin
my issue is that upkeep goes up so much you cant run multiple armies early
Lincoln Sanders

Thanks a lot, I thought there was some other problem with low public order I didn't know about.

did I lose one guy to friendly fire, or did he die of heartattack in the middle of fight or accidentally fall into a Witch Elf cauldron?
Jonathan Jenkins
AoS shit belongs in
Eli Sanders
Is there a way to play a normal campaign in TW2 without the vortex stuff? I like it and all but I want to keep my lizard bro allies and conquer rats and delfs together
Benjamin Smith
Yeah it's actually a great way to defend when you have no armies nearby. When you have walls everywhere the AI will siege for a couple of turns and let your agent crush their stack.

Jason Anderson
Just ignore it, theres no penalty. Its actually easier to not do the vortex shit.
Jaxon Myers
I don't think it's so much the manchildren. I think it has to do with lore and setting. GW is still in the infancy of trying to create an identifiable setting with AoS that isn't total generic, vague, high fantasy bullshit. If they would stop sucking Sigmarine dick so often then maybe they would entice more of their old player base to give it a try.
And while I like AoS and think that it's got a bad reputation for an otherwise decent skirmish type Table-Top game, it is nowhere near as fun, engaging, or strategic as WHFB was.
Jeremiah Sullivan
discussing AoS in the context of total war is no different to discussing historical periods, fuck off.

Blake Howard
Yes it is, since there are historical TW games. There are no AoS TW games.
Josiah Myers
This is absurdly cool. Really. This is very, very, very cool.
Nolan Richardson
the idea is that radious doesn't know/care about the lore, bud
Noah Cruz
>AoS is better than Fantasy in every literal way
If you mean tabletop gameplay, then yeah, WHFB was a clunky mess that needed an overhaul decades ago.
Luckily no one actually plays tabletop wargames, so people can safely care about the part of Warhammer Fantasy that actually matters and actually made an impact, the setting.
Meanwhile no one will ever care about the barely comprehensible mess that is the AoS setting.
That's not a legit strategy when you dont have enough armies to cover all your area.
Dark Elves live off of raiding enemy settlements, not travelling their own lands.
When you have one or two 20/20 armies and a ton of land it's going to be a pain to have to go back so far from the enemy lands just to crush rebellions.
