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."

FOR ZE LADY

I feel like Empire or Dwarves are the best first ME campaigns.

>Both have DLC Legendary Lords so they have LLs with updated stats, and Geltz has updated magic
>Both have RoRs at release, so you're not missing them
>Both get to fight new races/enemies
Both got new buildings

Lads.

7 hours in and I'm bored

I think I just need a general break from video games

I can't decide between a Empire NATO run(then focus on colonizing) or a Bretonnia/Bordelaux early game southern crusade run

What is ZE LADY doing with all the little boys?

Realistically, when is the crack coming? Tomorrow? TW2 was already available on torrents like 5 hours after release and this is just a patch + map

turns them into men.

>flying pyramids
END TIMES CONFIRMED FOR TW3!

Do Pestilens and Mors get different clan stone abilities?

Just do nothing for 1-2 weeks and you are going to "love" them again.

Scarcity at work...

I want to FUCK Deathclaw.

At most, a week after release
In reality, probably a couple of days

Good, good

ZE LADY PROTECTS FROM BULLETS MY CHIVALROUS FELLOWS

Missing one front leg there

>South africa

>flying pyramids

Reminder that Spear Dawi is the best Dawi

My son WILL be Phoenix King!

Only if you are a goddamn W A Z Z O C K

Fuck Lizards. I want cute girls in my jungle.

Hey. How long ting ME?

Less than 10 hours.

reminder that we're getting 5 skaven LL's

Hey guys, my refund for Warhammer II is about to go through, so I've got to ask; after spending $29.99 for Warhammer, what DLC should I get to enrich my first couple playthroughs?

17 hours

the hobbit ruined lotr dorfs for me.

store.steampowered.com/app/617810/Total_War_WARHAMMER_II__Mortal_Empires/

How so?

warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Sons_of_Bretonnia
Turns them into some of the strongest fighters around that will ride out and slaughter brutes
pretty much what this user said

>what DLC should I get to enrich my first couple playthroughs?
You don't need to buy DLC to meet enemy DLC factions. Only to play as them. So run vanilla.

because they were horrible.

No Thanquol, why should I care

>Majority of my force spawns on the other side of the numerically superior ai army
>have to make a mad dash to my reinforcements to have a chance at victory
>army about to be caught
>yari samurai sacrifice themselves to buy time for the rest of my army to make it to the reinforcements and have a fighting chance

This Sartosa mod is cute as hell.

Would advise.

nobody cares historyshitter

They don't look very steady on their feet.

Hobbit ruined everything
But at least dwarfs have spears

How so?

That's what I was worried about, thank you! I'm interested in the Wood Elves, but I'll play through a couple Empire and Dwarf campaigns first.

Should I get the DLCs that add Regiments of Renown and new units for base factions?

>its an "elves jump over a perfectly assembled dwarfen phalanx" scene
what was hackson thinking?

I'm not gonna lie, they've had a bit to drink.

lmao are those guys supposed to look drunk?

Are those drunken swashbucklers?

oh my fuck

Yeah.

In case anybody is interested, here are some army books on google drive:

warhammerarmiesproject.blogspot.de/2013/07/all-books-now-available-on-google-drive.html

They're unbreakable too.

Buy them on sale. I got TW1+all DLC for $60 when it was on sale a long time ago and it was a fantastic deal.

youtube.com/watch?v=2m04j8rRkHw

F you real human beans
I have no samuri pictures, sorry

Why is it that Rise of the Samurai is so boring?

They're on sale right now!

There's even less unit variety and 2 other clan archtypes to fight with. Also everyone is a fucking peasant

Is it even possible to watch that film at the cinema without getting tired as fuck? Feels like you can only see these battles in youtube format

Wow! I wanna buy them!

>33%
fuck off

Even he admit Hobbit was a mistake

Then grab them. Unless you've never played a Total War game and don't know if you'll like the genre.

>tfw you go on a crusade to ensure you and your ladies spot in heaven

>watch as your brothers fall in battle left and right, but continue to fight on for HER

>she leaves you for Chad, the village drunk & blacksmith

because it has a whooping 6 unit types

I only ever get a couple turns into rise before stopping once I see the atrocious replenishment times

As for why its boring, probably because there is even less variety than the already same-y base campaign

*blocks your cannonball*

wtf was today's stream about anyway? are GW taking the piss with the marketing for ME? First they give preview copies to the most inept major tw youtubers they can find and then they run a 25 min stream where dogbert loses two battles in a row. Was CA's appetite for trolling whetted with the Helfs getting BTFO in every single TWW2 preview and they're now stretching their wings with ever sillier promo material?

>worshipping Elven Goddess
Brets are the ultimate cucks.

>GW
CA is just using GW assets, they're not affiliated with marketting sans providing painted models

goddamn brets are fucking cool

it wasn't originally an elven goddess in the Lore. But that's too hard for Skubtime wikifags to comprehend

>having a spanish king
French are the ultimate cucks

>he's actually surprised by CA not giving a fuck
lol

It's already post-release, user. Anyone who'd buy the game in the launch window already did. They don't need to try anymore, especially not for (((free))) content. You'll see the jew genes kick in once Tomb Kings are coming.

*blocks your bullets and cannonballs*

It was implied that their lady is fake long before end times, you poser.

It's been heavily implied since 6th edition.
Not necessarily Lileath though, I don't know where they were going with that.

Probably "Oh shit, Oh shit, I was just supposed to produce this thing now I have to take over this train wreck"

Like to be honest everything to do with those movies was a mess, no one wanted to make them but they had to because "We've got to push this new technology" and "Well you made the Lotr which made a fuck ton of money so you need to do that again"

Like you watch the behind the scenes about the first movie and everyone just looks fucking exhausted already. They knew it was bad but just had to ride that piece of shit into harbor

her being an Elven goddess was the exact opposite of being a fake.

as opposed to gods that dont exist/do anything
I think they made the correct choice

Grace is a filthy goblin

>mfw no Laurelorn Forest Welves

>cuck in denial

I doubt any group will bother with FLC. Nobody even touched the foundation update for Warhammer 1. Wait for a GOTY edition.

>playing uesugi
>takeda are public enemy number one, entire campaign hinges upon your early war with them
>playing hojo
>takeda and uesugi team up to spitroast me from 2 directions
I fucking HATE the shogun 2 ai

Are the Grim & Grave / King & Warlord / Beastmen / WoC DLCs worth it for TW1/Mortal Empires?

I never got the first two since I never cared for either lord besides Volkmar, but 7.50€ for only one lord seemed excessive; and I really don't know what Beastmen/WoC DLCs brings. I only really have Wood Elves because a friend gifted them to me so we could co-op campaign together

anyone disappointed that it doesn't look like they put much skaven clans in the old world? Wish they would have sprinkled abit more in the mountain ranges.

>buying

I think in every campaign of shogun 2 I've played, takeda have been a pack of cunts. Fucking clan takeda.

In my opinion, the grim and grave/king and warlord are necessary while beastmemes and woc are only worth it of you like what they offer

>no Elspeth von Draken
>no Bertha Bestraufrung
>no Naestra and Arahan, Sisters of Twilight
>no Drycha
>no Crone Hellebron
>no Valkia the Bloody
>no Dechala the Denied One
>no Alarielle the Everqueen
>no unique Princess Eldyra squire hero for Tyrion
>no Tzarina Katarin
>no Queen Khalida Neferher
>no Neferata
Are CA fucking *SEXIST* or something?!

Grace is a cute goblin

They would be a decent candidate for a Rogue Army.
Maybe a mix of High and Wood Elf units and they start as neutral or friendly towards the Empire.

>Nobody even touched the foundation update for Warhammer 1
because nobody cared about WH1 at that point
ME on the other hand is basically the sole purpose of WH2, it's in high demand

Half of those are already CONFIRMED

>Alarielle
>Katarin
>Khalida
>Neferata
>Valkia

I would wait until me gets updated w/ the Foundation changes to get chaos. K&W is great, G&G is worth it more for the new non-Ror units. I'd only get beastmen if you find the horde campaign gameplay interesting

She looks like she can barely tolerate our presence, even across the time and space of the photograph.

>Bertha Bestraufrung
But user, she's been dead for 500 years.

WRONG!
