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."

Cute eshin butts making cute rat poops

Does anyone have that image of the norscan elephant stacks vs louen and alberic image referencing battle of pelenor fields?

Wrong neighbourhood knife eared scum

>some no-name orc clan owns half the empire because of the new occupation mechanics and because auto-resolve treats their armies favorably

It will be dlc, like extra LLs are.
Actually, the big prize lootboxes from grinding multiplayer should give you the chance to win dlc packs.

What gameplay mods do you guys use for WH2?

In WH1 I only slightly tweaked the vanilla AI/recruitment with Celtik's AI mod, and not much beyond that, not sure if there's any good mods for WH2 campaign yet.

...

They nerfed the Sword of Anti-Heroes. it no longer gives bonus AOE damage

>Faction destroyed: Warriors of Chaos

D-does it mean it's finally over?

>empire is only powerful when (You) are playing as them
I swear to god they don't even fucking step out of the reiklands

>Click on Phoenix Guard
>They don't say a word
Where is my voice acting, CA?!

Caught these faggots in marching stance too. Rip Tilea. That's what you get for letting fucking Orks invite you into a war against me.

>The Empire actually gets to fight Greenskins
I think that's actually an improvement.

>damsels
>ugly as fuck
Why isn't there a qt damsels mod yet

>no Elspeth von Draken
>no Bertha Bestraufrung
>no Lucrezzia Belladonna
>no Repanse de Lyonesse
>no Naestra and Arahan, Sisters of Twilight
>no Drycha
>no Ariel, Avatar of Isha
>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
>no unique Geneviève Dieudonné hero for Lahmians
Are CA fucking *SEXIST* or something?!

Umm, sexist much?

Yeah I'm sexist, fuck you ugly damsels is why young bretonnian lads are sailing to ulthuan and waddling into the woods to fuck knife ears

>dwarves going full elf genocide in my campaign

...

Why would orcs even follow an orc who is a cripple?

Good.
Keep the dykes outta my wahhammuh

>Tyrone's squire in the lore is legit a qt melee princess and they replaced her with Alastar the White Lion just because some shitty kid was dying
Truly the worst timeline.

A good point honestly, also curious as to why peter jackson added balls to the warg.

Seaguard stacks are rough to deal with in defensive sieges.

>badass white lion PRINCE instead of waifu shit
Good

>prefering "qt" worthless boring harlot over white lion

>reinstall game
>reinstall Steam
>don't even have KB4041676 cause windows update keeps failing to download it so can't uninstall it
>game still freezes the entire PC when loading the world map

CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

FUCK YOU

I really want Elspeth von Draken. Wissenland as a new starting position isn't really that amazing, but I would rather have her in Wissenland than CA arbitrarily putting Gelt or Volkmar in charge of Wissenland or something like Stirland just to make new empire starting positions.

Because we cant use custom meshes

>being a lorelet

Tyrion's waifu is Widowmaker. The rest are irrelevant.

IT'S OUT
I REPEAT DANCING ORCS MOD IS OUT

To add, Volkmar should really start out as a horde faction with a focus on reclaiming Sylvania

I honestly want to learn how to mod custom voice lines into the game, just so that I could voice them to shut up /twg/'s autists

WTF I LOVE WARHAMMER 2 NOW

Repanse de Lyonesse would be a better crusading LL than nautical who as well desu.

>they replaced her with Alastar the White Lion just because some shitty kid was dying

No, she's killed and replaced by the dark elves.

End Times, pls leave

>ratsVsgoblins grand battle
>almost 10 000 creatures present
>not even a thousand dead
>the rest just scurvy away.
ME ME THE BRAVEST!

>being a /twg/let
I am glad I've motivated you to learn new stuff

You could have Marius Leitdorf in Averland. And obviously Todbringer is around. Those are the most significant Elector Counts.

Mortal empires more like UNDEAD empires.
Also orcs were raped by the dwarfs yet again.

time to bang my nephew

>Tomb Kings still not announced.

she wanted to fuck sword autist anyway

on Halloween we'll get one
or they'll tell you to go fuck yourself and announce Araby

I have a feeling these guys are coming straight for my cities in Estalia.

>amazons still not announced

good

>Araby still not announced

>build mighty dwarven empire despite manlet mcbackstab being a dick
>south of badlands is constantly being invaded by strygos empire, 4 full stacks raiding and coming to siege in any given turn
>also 2 other chaos factions on invade the badlands from the south and west on top of warriors coming from the north
>Archaon hasnt even spawned yet

Total Warhammer really needs some strategic map spells to nuke shit like doomtrains.

>click on araby town
>FOR BRETTONNIA!

How do I beat tree niggers as bretonia?
They completely shred my infantry with arrows while i spend 5 minutes chasing them with my cav who are dead on engagement anyway

>Be Strigoi and live in cave
>just want to be left alone and eat my meals in peace
>ghouls won't stop worshiping me
>people I never met are trying to murder me
>other vampires want me to join them for some faggy cause

>if by some miracle they got in and got cool, original units from CA to compensate for their total lack of lore then they wouldn't look as cute or thicc as that pic

Use more cavalry.

Blessed trebuchets and battle pilgrims
Then pegs or grails

kys

>araby agent
>its just damsels in a burka

More cavalry. They can't fire arrows if they're being stabbed.

>They completely shred my infantry

That's what the peasants are there for.

Neither of them will be announced.

I love it in Rome 2 when you pick the right wars and you aren't too big.

Problem is passing turns takes forever.

The skaven plague ability is pretty powerful. It put one of my stacks out of commission for several turns

>"a smith"
>no hammer, no apron, no tools

they sure bungled this one

Im running like 5 grail knights, 2 yeoman mounted archers and 2 pegasus knights
I don't have blessed trebs, only 2 normal ones and battle pilgrims seems to lose to wardancers

>damsels in a burka

Louen vs Tyrion, fight of the century!

More cav

>normal trebs
L O L

>Rome and Carthage are almost completely wrecked

Every time

christ chan is so cute i wish she was real to force me to go to church with violence

>only 5 grail knights
>trebs
>yeoman
Looks like you still need more cav

I mean if napoleon got a bum knee and a limp from battle he'd still be top general

...

I love how factions you only meet because of line of sight due to existing alliances made the same turn will also sign alliances.

Have another fun screenie.

Bravo CA!

For humans it makes sense. Tolkien orcs are supposed to be pure brutes. Having a cunning weakling in charge would be unnatural. So it's an interesting choice of Jackson to have the orc general be some old cripple, was he deliberately making a point that movie orcs are better organised than book?

it wont last

nothing does

is that from release?

It's the sword of anti heroes not the sword of anti plebs

No, otherwise how would I play as Masaesyli?

It's base radious with all campaign factions mod.

For the Provinces?

Is playtesting the big new meme?

Why does nobody do it anymore?

...

Why the fuck is that bretonian shit in the middle? He's a flc that isn't even remotely important.

>teclis traveled across the world to fuck up chaos
neat

Are greenskinz still the worst designed faction?
Bretonnia while simple is still a lot of fun to play.

vortex campaign

>Shill against the darkness
What did he mean by this

>redditor puts his name on the artwork he stole

not surprised

Nah, skins are fun with a lot of variety and the ability to swamp an enemy with big units that are cheap and still pretty tough

I was making a joke about those portraits

Do we have a faction unlocker for mortal empires yet? Suggested mods so far?

Greenskins are fun to play. Cheap units and free stacks, what's not to like?

...

Getting raped by ironclad throngs.

>almost defeated the first faction of chaos hordes, Vessels/Puppets and whoever the fuck else
>Archaon spawns and suddenly more of these guys come back

fuck sake
I hope Ulthuan is still there by the time I eventually leave my frozen shithole to return to take the phoenix throne
