/twg/ - Total War General

Total war is a single-player game.
The flavor is Warhammer, not the core system.

I would understand if it had something fun like the Shogun 2 avatar mode but it's just quick battles. What's the point?

Are you too inept to prioritize them or something? You know you are not an AI, right?

The battles are the only fun thing about the game anyways. The turn based overworld is ass and has 0 depth.

>but it's just quick battles

Not him but it's not. There's coop and vs campaigns too.

PvP campaigns are fun as fuck because the otherp layer can take control of any AI army you engage with.

Legendary is impossible! helves keep spamming dragons and phoenixes, lizards keep spamming dinosaurs, empire keeps spamming steam tanks, and chaos keeps spamming chosen, and and and

>play pvp campaign
>other guy just does everything in his power to fuck you over in the long run rather than actually try to win

Never again on Shogun 2, so many daimyos and top tier generals lost

>Prioritize the very fast unit with high melee stats

Alrightie

>Lets not kill the biggest threat on the battlefield because its ---- BAAAAAWWW HAAAARD
Jesus this guy.

It's just that the community for TW is full of cancer lol.

I only do campaigns with friends because...friends.

how do I do a migration campaign?

>>other guy just does everything in his power to fuck you over in the long run rather than actually try to win
Doesn't sound any different than the AI.

>the biggest threat is a siege unit with incredibly good melee stats that doesn't need to put itself in any danger to wreck your shit
>LOL JUST FOCUS IT DOWN

Nigga 3 of them can half health a dragon before it even lands.

Question

I have WH1 and I want WH3 but I'm skipping out on WH2. CA is going to let me do that, right? They're not going to pull some insane bullshit and make 1 and 2 required for 3, right? They've made some dumb decisions but that would catastrophically retarded, right?

As for why in case someone asks, I just want to play in the Eurasia equivalent not and have to worry about the other continents.

pick a meme and go to town

Because battles are literally 3/4's of the fun of Total War. The campaign map is literally just an excuse to have a battle map. And battles are even better in Warhammer because you've got wizards and dragons and orcs and shit.
>legendary is impossible
I've had a few false starts on Legendary, it helps to really diversify your army comp.
On easymode you can win as High Elves with nothing but shielded Seaguard, but on Legendary you're going to need those dragons and those support units and those [pukes internally] fucking chariots.
I look forward to seeing how fighting the Tomb Kings in a Legendary campaign goes once they're actually balanced. So far those Ushabti are a pain in the ass I'm having to bring two full stacks to deal with.
Try a co-op campaign, they're fucking awesome. You're playing Chad Tyrion fucking up anyone who wants to bully little brother Teclis.

>anti-large unit is good against a large target

hmmm

>Nigga 3 of them can half health a dragon before it even lands.
So bring 3 dragons? Hell bring 19. Clearly logistics is no issue

Wouldn't surprise me at all if the final combined map will require all 3 games. I'm expecting it, actually.

>quoting like that
I did it once to laugh at you, but you are annoying.
How about you dont use a slow big ass flying target to kill them?

No, legendary is clearly impossible if the AI has access to good units

I don't think there's going to be a 3. Not unless they split Chaos into four seperate factions and set it in the Chaos Wastes.

But other than that what's truly left? Araby? Good fucking luck against Arkhan. Ogre Kingdoms? Eh, sure.

You will be able to play the WH3 map.
You won't get the combined map with all three though.

>Because battles are literally 3/4's of the fun of Total War
I guess that might be the case with Warhammer and it's barebones campaign map features. I personally like managing my empire as much as i like fighting battles in the older titles. Shit is usually pretty damn comfy

>bow ushabti
>anti large

I mean, I guess technically in the sense that it just shits on everything and it's accuracy and AP lets it shits on single model units really easily but no, not actually.

There's good units and then there's units you have literally no viable defence against.

Why don't you go in custom battles and find me 1 (one) unit that can take on a Ushabti Great Bow, one on one.

Here here.

Its why Medieval II was so much fun LARPing in.

>1 (one) unit that can take on a Ushabti Great Bow, one on one.
Literally any giant or dragon. Are you retarded?

>Unit makes the game really easy
>fuck yeah
>hey maybe I can try this "Normal" difficulty
>hear possibility that this precious unit of mine is going to be nerfed at some point in the future due to its ability to destroy literally anything it fights
>start crying on Veeky Forums
>even though literally every game has to tweak new elements that DLC adds because balance exists and is something people who play games outside of easy mode care about
>keep crying when it's explained that they'll probably still be a perfectly good unit

1 on 1 unit means absolutely nothing. And if you want to use that metric, TKs are in for a massive boost, since their 1 on 1 game is terrible overall.

Pretty sure Demis and MAYBE the necroknights with halberds or something, maybe the delf niggers with stalk or that one RoR stalker, but they work as part of a comp, so you can't just isolate test them like that, but against like a lord? 3 will win everytime, the only one that wins consistently in my tests is Kroq, and not really because of stats but because his weird stagger animation makes like half the volley miss.

Nigga they can half health anything before it gets in shouting distance. Take the game off easy mode.

Any anti large cav, demis, chaos knights any t4-t5 monster. Any elite infantry and probably some t3 infantry units.

>Nigga they can half health anything before it gets in shouting distance.
And then they die. Are you retarded or something?He said it could 1 on 1 anything, and I said it can't.

Let me get this straight ... an artillery direct fire unit with AP can do damage to a unit charging it across an open field or flying directly at it?

I mean, that surely has to be a revolution in warfare.

>med2
>comfy
What was comfy about building the same buildings everywhere, not building brothels whilst beleving in trickle down economics

>>Unit makes the game really easy
You know what else makes the game easy?
Dragons.

how do you go from this...

What about a combined map with just 1 and 3? that's all i want.

>that sea of claws
why did later people not understand the empire is suppoused to be germany + sweden, gustavus adolphus had plans to become the HREmperor, and their ulric worship = arians = proddy scum

G O B L I N S

When? WHEN, I SAY?!

Ebony welves.

to this

no.

NIPPLE! NIPPLE! BLUE BOARD! BLUE BOARD!

>solocucks this anally devastated that their new toy is getting gutted

Warhammer is a pvp game friend, the only people who care about pure solo player experience are the lonely virgins like yourself friend.

Either way, it's still getting nerfed, and there is NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT.

>user being raped by the Big Wargaming Cock circa 2012

It's not about just building buildings. If you don't understand even that then i'm afraid i can't help you

Too high to be a nipple, at least with that bust size. Clearly it's part of her hair.

>their new toy is getting gutted
aww sweetie you shouldn't expect anything now, you'll just be disappointed ;)

boy, you ever seen a nipple?

what happened ?

No amount of deflecting is going to keep it from happening user, the real show runners have already voiced their displeasure at it being OP so it's guaranteed at this point.

except MEIOU is comfy for building buildings because taxes increase, whilst land is harder to buy, the estate that owns the province can then earn more cash, whilst the population becomes increasingly urban
compared to MED2 where its just BUILD FARM, BUILD ROAD, BUILD CHURCH

>He doesn't play with Faction unlocker and Mixu's LLs

Why the fuck not?

Its not a photo. Artists arent medical doctors.

...

literally nothing, in 10 minutes it went from
>great bow ushbati are totally op i bet it will be nerfed
to
>all the youtubers are talking about it and in the forums, it's going to be nerfed
to
>it's going to be nerfed

>aww sweetie
Ushabti great bows are OP because they're a new, unbalanced addition. They're probably gonna have either their accuracy or their AP dropped by a few points to reduce their ability to kill anything before it can touch them.

Remember when those CoD kiddies threatened to murder a dev because the reload time of a sniper rifle was slowed down a bit? Same shit.

ushabti great bows can noscope almost any unit half the map away

>the real show runners
>literal who youtubers
>doing anything ever

YO
LOOK AT THIS DUDE
OH NO NO NO NO
EEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHNNNN
PTHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA

>Remember when those CoD kiddies threatened to murder a dev because the reload time of a sniper rifle was slowed down a bit? Same shit.

Hooo boy, you went from 0 to retard in 2 seconds flat. Respecc.

No idea what this Meiou is but you clearly didn't read my post.

As pathetic and irrelevant as they are, they are still more relevant than you. So toughen up buttercup, it will probably be a slap on the wrist nerf anyways.

They look...off.

What wacky playstyle will the next faction have that will make them "unique"?

What's sad are the cunts eating this shit up. Like, what the actual fuck is appealing about AoS, it's like a shittier 40k.

It's okay sweetie, you don't have to be upset the bad guys aren't getting nerfed

flying carpets

MEIOU is a total overhaul for the grand strategy game eu4, it makes it into something other than a map painter due to stuff like 'communication efficiency' which can triple if you leave your overlord somehow despite have mil access to the lands

>Mfw all this fantasoy infighting

So there's no reason not to go for the First Dynasty's general ASAP right?

His bonus to fighting in the desert will become less useful as the campaign drags on, yeah?

>Nfw historifags are not getting an actual historical game for another few years.

I AM UTHRED SON OF UTHRED AND I WILL HAVE MY UNITED THREAD

Wackoff is good yeah, his best bonus is the range anyways.

>tfw historyfags will probably unveil their status as fake historyfags when they realize Three Kingdoms is more based on actual history than fucking RoTK

Whats the point shilling shitty mods here?

LMAOing at your life right now

Don't like us hiscucks wouldn't argue about dumbshit as well.

Khalida Vortex. Archer buffs are second dynasty

Why even play Empire otherwise?

Why did you force this pointless war upon us, Settra? I was more than happy to let you rule Khemri while I focused on extinguishing the Greenskins yet, here we are.

But most of them look great!

>meiou

Didn't histfags argue about whether or not calvary was used? Like, Cav charges where never effective ever.

>How the fuck am I going to afford all these monster uni-
>Oh wait.
>I can.
God damn I love Tomb Kings.

SETTRA RULES

>He thinks i'm a historyfag

>Warhammer is a pvp game friend
Haha.
But generally yeah, shit gets nerfed because of multiplayer. It happens all the time, who do people act like this is surprising? No matter how small and insignificant the mp, they still gotta balance it somehow.
