First for rats

Reminder that if you think warhammer combat is too fast then you’re siding with the chinafags

Really makes me think

reminder to report and ignore the furfag

hopefully he will get banned again like he was before

Skarsnik da best

>Reminder that the Vikings vs. Samurai Deadliest Warrior was bullshit start to finish.

Not even him.

I didn't even know it was porn I just thought it was rat-posting. Post a campaign or some shit user. That poo poster was cool.

funny how people report him but not all the fantasyfag shitposters

hmm...

*blocks your path*

>live in the literal slums of Eight Peaks

Who says its porn user? Its just what the filename says it is, nothing lewd about it.
I do it partially cause it makes people like you mad :^)

>Nagash still not(?) announced

can someone tell me how i'm supposed to use light arty in Total War Arena, it seems so awful I cant break 1k score with it

Fuck off, we don't talk about that garbage here

>watches bullshit simplified Ameriburger "history" show
>wow that's inaccurate

>Total War Arena

>shogun 2 engagements lasting past the insane banzai charge bonuses or gunpowder shock in FOTS
big ass lol

what's wrong with it

So we agree that a Viking would destroy a Samurai one on one?

ignore them, but honestly it never gets discussed here

>implying I don't

One thing I'm looking forward to in Three Kingdoms is the unit cards. Ancient chinese art is even worse than japanese and they will probably be stylized for it.

>japanese art
>bad

>British documentary
>Here, in the jungles of Bhata-Tuthu, the praying mantis is in search of its prey.
>3 minutes of very clean and uninterrupted footage of the praying mantis following a spider

>American documentary
>Guitar riffs playing in the backround
>YOU PROBABLY WOULDNT WANT ONE OF THESE KILLERS IN YOUR BACK YARD
>Rapid jump cuts of the praying mantis
>THE PRAYING MANTIS MIGHT LOOK LIKE A BUG IN CHURCH, BUT THIS NASTY MOTHER-SUCKER IS NOT TO BE MESSED WITH
>More flashy jump cuts
>THIS LITTLE SPIDER DOESNT KNOW WHATS WAITING FOR HIM, THE FURY OF THE MANTIS IS NOT TO BE UNDERESTIMATED
>More flashy jump cuts
>The mantis strikes
>Strange animal growling and screeching noises are dubbed in as it attacks because silent footage is too boring for americans
>Slow mo replay of the attack in black and white
>AND ITS OVER IN A FLASH
>THAT LITTLE SPIDER
>SHOULD'VE PRAYED
>TO THE MANTIS
>Starwipe to next clip

>tfw European civilization is the only society to produce ever produce decent art
makes one ponder desu

Will there be a SHOGUN 2 proper torrent, ever?

the "KaOs" one is complete shit

Depends, is the Samurai carrying a katana or an actual weapon?
Does the viking have javelins?
Can he afford armor?

You greatest ally 'umie

Dude...the american documentary is fucking bad ass.

obvious falseflag

What Vikings and what Samurai?
Jomsvikings or your average Norse raiders? Sengoku period Samurai or what else?

rock on bro

Randy?

ITT: legendary lords liked by no one

I wish I could help Arenabro, but I don't play artillery. Hopeful once the game goes open beta we can get some actually discussion about it. How many people from /twg/ even got in?

I like the way he gives any lord that smacks him around poison attacks.

I like his 20% research boost, you only need to get him to level 3 then disband for the rest of the game

I will never get why on earth they put this guy in.

he really is a victim of being an early piece of content, before CA realized how nuts they could go with the game/setting

>those wailing sounds

>all of these (you)s

>s2
>faction that starts in the middle of japan
>early expansion leads to conflict
>not even in the middle stage of the game and already facing pseudo realm-divide
every fucking time

Which trait is better for Death Hag hero? +2 to leadership, or +2 MA +2 MD (both traits apply to whole army)

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

...

literally who

IS IT just me or was Gelt buffed to fuck?

ma/md
>ywn be enslaved by a death hag
jdimsa

when CA first launched wh, they were a bit conservative with straying from the traditional tw formula because they didn't know how people would react to it. When it became obvious it was a massive success and people liked it, they started straying from the generic formula more and more. Just compare the empire from game 1 to any faction from game 2

>flying orc death caster
azhag is great

>the antlion roars like a lion
wew

I don't think I ever played even a single campaign with him, and Greenskins is one of my favourite factions.

He's not actually bad, he's just a little boring. Like Alberic, or Malagor, or Volkmar, or Sigvald, or Ungrim.

He has a great design tho

This proves that half of the LLs should have been heros and not lords.

How in the hell is Sigvald boring?

TITTIES

POST MORE BIG FAT TITTIES

did they literally just list the lore's spells because they had nothing else to put?

>volkmar
>ungrim
>boring
heresy

>Ungrim.
>No Karak Kadrin start point
>No endgame battle where you lead a massive army of slayers to the Chaos wastes to actually get him killed for real for massive buffs.

Bestest tomb boi

Don't shit talk the Skelly Pope

>no Slayers-based horde faction as Ungrim or his son

Alberic
He is literally a generic lord, even his voice acting

Sigvald is the most fun character. His dialogue never gets old.

>I LOVE CARNAGE
>I AM DIVINE
>Shall we decant wine?

>No Dragonslayers
>No Daemonslayers
>No Goblin Hewer

>sliverslash speech

>did nothing wrong
>only wanted to help
>exiled
>starting position surrounded by edgelords and beastmeme

dare I say /ourguy Darren/ ?

...

DELETE THIS

Sigvald>Kholek>Archaon

>tfw darren quit because he realized how cancer fantasy was

We don't deserve somebody like him

fuck off darren

You don't understand their addiction with spearmanii...once you field your first unit of generic spear infantry, you just can't stop, and need to keep collecting them. They're called Allemanic, Gothic, Frankish, Roman, Ghassanid, Sassanid or Alan, but they all look exactly 100% the same. And you love it, you can't get enough of their sketchy approximate historicity, their TV-show-tier voice lines, their ability to stick it out in combat for 3 hours on end without any special abilities to change the course of the battle. Slowly, you are lost to the push and pull of the spear wall. As you admire your 50th variation of the generic spear unit, you shout SPEARMANII! and no childish fantasy garbage with its confusing variation and frighteningly varied unit dynamics will ever do again.

>Decided to replay Shogun 2 again
Holy shit were units always this fast moving, fast reacting when running in Rome and Medieval?
>Listen to the speeches
>Spoken in glorious nihon
>Fall of the Samurai is the best Shogun 2
>They all speak english with a "pretend accent"
Two steps forward, one step back, every time. Slow and steady boys.

I want a spear like that 2bh

>Usirian's INCANTIATION
>INCANTIATION
Nice.
10/10

Apparently Shogun 2 is SANIC THE EDGEHOG compared to Medieval 2.

We all do.

Why do so many people from Veeky Forums post here now? Is it warhammer?

>>They all speak english with a "pretend accent"
Two steps forward, one step back, every time. Slow and steady boy

I heard the french version of the game had them speak japanese instead with proper unit reponses(not just copy paste from the shogun 2 campaign). There is a mod that enables it.

I'm sure historical tabletop gaming still exists. There is that pirate thing.

>I heard the french version of the game had them speak japanese instead with proper unit reponses
French here, can confirm. It's funny to know what "yumi" and "yari" means and hear them saying using these words.

That's awesome
Those sound effect crack me up
