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."

>Darkshards are fine though I still think they shouldn't be AP They would be literally worthless in that case

Cameron Perry
>Darkshards shouldnt be AP
Then what the fuck would be the point of the Delf roster? They have inferior infantry, inferior lords, inferior monsters
All they got going for them is AP ranged.
Justin Clark
Alright, going to do a helf campaign with 2 mods >No Great Power Penalty Debating whether or not I should go with this one on or not >999x higher vortex resource requirements Basically neutralizes the vortex campaign, preventing everyone (including me) from even getting to the first ritual, which means none of the stupid shit like the bro-tier lizard/helf alliance breaking down because of dumb mechanics
Should I go with the virgin wizard or the chad avatar of khaine?
Cooper Long
How should I be building Tyrion/High Elf Lords? I was Lizardmen last campaign w/ Kroak and I specced him mostly red, but felt that I was missing out on the campaign/army buffs from the blue tree.
Alexander Rogers
WHITE LION BOW DRAGON RIDERS (SHIELDED)
Isaiah Morgan
blue is a meme most people go yellow but it seems most efficient to go red first
Joshua Sanders
no schemes, only straight white elf love
Jack Jones
Yellow/Unique trees on LLs, specialized red for 20 stacks on lords
Angel Foster
>no mods for pirated version fuck steam honestly desu lad
ever since i learned you can unlock all DLC for free with a simple ini file i'm not giving them a cent more
Oliver Hall
Teclis is probably more fun if you're ignoring the vortex No need to build elf NATO, just fight a good variety of opponents
Easton Wood
>Lizardmen last campaign w/ Kroak
Luke Rogers
he made it into the CA book of grudges
Isaiah Richardson
1) campaign movement 2) Redline Archers and Spearmen/Lothern for early lords or Redline Archers Swordmemes/Phoenix Guard for late lords 3) Yellow Skills, unique abilities and mounts 4) When you have gold Chevroned units, get the appropriate Redline buff. 5) Immortalty when it's available (don't want to lose valuable lords) 6) Max out yellow line. Get lightning meme if you need it
Lucas Butler
where? I don't see his name anywhere
anyhow yeah he still worked with the team almost until launch
Ryan Brooks
well yeah user, a game like warhammer must give all the users DLC data so they can see the DLC faction/content in multiplayer of other people.
It's not like day one dlc on disc meme.
Lincoln Edwards
>Dark elves >inferior
methinks your just shit m8, dark elves are the elves but more killy
Christopher Gutierrez
Can you even kill lords anymore though? I haven't found an agent who can kill and not just wound or kill an agent
Robert Peterson
They can still die in battle dummy
Joseph Edwards
Hotfix when? Its been a fucking week and this game has some serious bugs.
Xavier Cooper
>the pirated version should have all the supported features of the paid version
I'm confuse
Nathaniel Lewis
I think Skaven or Khainite Assassins have a way to kill through skillpoints Dying in battle is what matters since it's easy to get fucked over if you're trying to defend a ritual
Andrew Cook
the ark is supposed to be a floating fortress.
Cooper Allen
All Delf units will lose to their Helf equivalent, this is a fact
Go and test that shit yourself if you don't believe me
Samuel Wood
Just looking at their base stats makes them seem inferior, but their entire army is balanced around murderous prowess. Activating that is the key to victory.
Nathan Hall
>blood in a warhammer game >8 dollars >lords that should have been in base game >8 dollars >factions that should have been in base game >15 dollars >on top of a 60 dollar game
yeah nah fuk off
Aiden Russell
I confederated with mommy, but she's not available in my lord recruitment pool. Is there something special that needs to be done?
Eli Russell
If a lord or LL is wounded when you confederate, they're gone forever
Aiden Allen
tell me more about this ini file user
Benjamin Flores
>>blood in a warhammer game dollars stopped reading right there.
Jayden Parker
I'm not defending that, I'm just saying the ini file thing looks scummy, but its the best way to do it when it comes to DLC, or else you run into not being able to play people with the DLC like games before.
Matthew Baker
High five Bro.
Jason Morales
its called creamapi
i'm not an elitist faggot so i'll save you the trouble of finding it
The problem is by the time Murderous prowess is activated, most of the delfs are dead
Jackson Moore
thx pham
Benjamin Perez
>>no mods for pirated version wat, do they not work after install or something?
Alexander Hill
Ok. So I start playing as Souther State of Sudenburg. >thanks faction unlocker Thanks to kind user I was able fix climate zones for them and for everyone(other than savage orks and some elves because kind user go MIA).
Anyway start is harsh and I do not think that Empire and Brets can push undead shit when they have desert set as yellow climate. I will change two island bret provinces for some better habitable ones from desert. So my budget(used for colonization and bribes) consist mostly from ship recovery. >its to OP to not use it. free cash and items, plus some exp Send some captains on exploration mission - to meet other humans and maybe some friendly other races to trade as I have plenty trade goods. Other news: >No Free Company Militia but there are handhunners at last >no Vortex shit Ayone interested in rest of the story?
What do you mean? You can use mods on pirated version(if you have right build). Warham 1 mods do not work until pirates release Norsca build. Elven Nobles can kill.
Jaxon Young
you can't access steam workshop if you don't own the game for it no other mod hosts (((yet)))
William Williams
Use more shards
Ethan Bennett
>Ayone interested in rest of the story? yee boi
Dylan Martinez
>delf units will lose to their equivilant
So you're shit, is what you're saying. Dark Elves are built around countering helves, not mashing the same units against. Bleakswords beat spearmen because SWORDS, Darkshards beat archers BECAUSE SHIELDS
Granted, dark shards SHOULD keep AP, because that AP is another delf counter to the helves - their elite infantry. Using a cheap ass tier 1 unit to delete an expensive elite tier 3 heavy infantry is the most unfair and perfectly dark elven thing in the world.
Mason White
you need to get the black pyramid asap, if the undead get it they get ridiculous bonuses and will begin shitting out armies + corruption (bp gives +2k gold/+25vampiric osmosis if the undead build it)
Thomas White
So I'm trying to launch the game, and Steam goes from "Running" to "Syncing" and then closes without ever bringing up the launch menu.
OPEN THE DOOR, GET ON THE FLOOR, BREAK AND FLEE FROM THE SAURUS HORDE
Cameron Wright
Lorelads
How strong is Maleketh and his Mommy? I assume his Mom is pretty weak
Gavin Diaz
his mom created "dark" magic, boy
Evan Hill
... i dont know why i never thought to google a solution for that
Liam Adams
mommy and dommy are two of the strongest magic users in the world
Isaiah Morris
Malekith is one of the most powerful beings in the world, and his mom is one of the toppest of mages.
Jaxson Gray
Last Defenders More like Last Bellenders lmao
Joseph Murphy
Anyone else find AI armies with Gutter Runners disgustingly annoying to deal with?
Cameron Rogers
...
Jason Campbell
Both are two bit hedge wizards compared to ma boi Teclis
Daniel Moore
Malekith is in the top 10 of fighters and casters, but could be brought down by either Tyrion or Teclis. His strength is drawn from being a good general and dank leader of his nation capable of holding together the many lords of murder, much like Karl Franz and his rebellious Elector Counts (except Franz is a simple human ignorant to the magical arts). Mommy is a top 5 caster
Ryan Wilson
>open launcher >"you've played the game, now own the miniatures" ebin
yes
Chase Lewis
Ever wonder how much money it would take for someone to do something?
Nathan Hill
this website looks like the same one i use to download porn hidden behind those premium link websites
Cooper Morris
Thats because the AI is excellent at micro management
Henry Lewis
*sells you miniatures from another setting*
Henry Garcia
incredibly
Anthony Jackson
>Malketh's Mom >Good Caster
lol Gelt is stronger than her
Oliver Johnson
which is because the AI designers suck at their jobs
Isaiah Jones
>Gelt No
Joseph Phillips
>getting bullied by mannlet >good at anything
Jayden Wood
>humans >can only master one wind of magic lmao
Henry Reyes
Morathi is one of the strongest magic users in the lore, she is equal to Teclis and only the Slann and possibly Nagash are greater.
Malekith is a powerful mage as well, though not quite at the level of the previously mentioned. He makes up for this by being a formidable Melee fighter, able to go toe to toe with the likes of Tyrion and Grimgor, and best them by using his magic as well.
Overall they are two of the most powerful individuals in Warhammer.
Jose Fisher
are there timetables for the dlc releases? I know the mortal realms campaign is "weeks not months" but what about LLs? Kinda surprised tomb kings still havent even been officially confirmed
Adam Stewart
They're making fun of Warhammer again lads
Daniel Collins
>fight gutter runers with DE/LM >they outrun your cold ones
Oliver Myers
I mean, think of all the treasures the Tomb Kings have buried.
Ethan Price
No, CA is in the habit of not telling us shit >going to /v/
Aiden Harris
Why do the Dark Elves Magic Casters call themselves "Hags"
It still means Old Woman in Warhammer world right?
Owen Brooks
>All the while battles become faster and less strategic for the ADD ridden RTS crowd. he's right tho
Noah Cruz
Extremely, especially with the unit collision bug. Its fucking great to see my Horned Ones have gone savage and are just sitting there being shot at.
Dominic Taylor
who cares? why even go to /v/?
Gabriel Perry
The hags aren't casters though.
Sebastian Anderson
>Crone Hellebron the Blood Queen of Har Ganeth is one of the most ancient of the Hag Queens and second only to Morathi in Khaine's sight. >crone >hag queens kek
Elijah Johnson
I hope Malus and Hellboron are good Lords.
Liam Allen
it generally means something along the lines of "wicked woman". in dark elf society, that's a compliment.
Josiah Russell
I don't understand why shogun's blood DLC was okay but after rome 2 it wasn't.
Although i agree that $20 for factions are bullshit and CA knows it.
Mason Cruz
hellebron is guaranteed to be good considering how ugly the current models are
Aiden Scott
Does Malekith's dick still work?
Joseph Reyes
>Pirate entitlement >inb4 you say you pirate things for a cause, and not just to save money
Chase Howard
im so hyped for witch elf meme stacks with hellebron buffs
yeah but its burnt
Charles Watson
if i could steal something and not have any consequences, i will do it with no ragrets
Gavin Scott
LOVE ETERNAL! Back when Vlad had good hair
Bentley Lewis
They're elves trying their hardest to be edgy, that's why they still ride unicorns and a faction of them has a heart on their banner.
Christian Myers
>game gives me quest for treasure hunting >decide to do it >stranger in a fucking ruin motions me towards an alleyway >suspicious as fuck >select the option to attack assuming my forces will deal with them >instead the frailest being in the fucking universe tries to 1v1 some cunt in a ruin >wounded for 5 turns on turn 5 What an absolute fucking mong
David Jones
i still can't believe how shit they made Malekith's voice after that trailer
Jack Perez
It's a lore thing. The Dark Elves worship the half of the elven pantheon associated with death and the underworld. In the mystical feminine trinity, the triune goddess is split between Maiden, Matron, and Crone, the Crone being associated with mystical power and the boundaries between life and death. The Dark Elves worship the dieties of death and the underworld. Therefore, their female priestesses and spellcasters are hags and crones. It's all celtic mishmash shit.
Easton Cox
you'll grow out of that, probably sometime after you turn 16-17
Blake Price
>Witch Elf Stacks
oh god its going to be madness.
Owen Russell
funny part, if you had followed the stranger, they would have led you to 100 ritual currency
