              All TW games are tagged as grand strategy and not a single one as 4X. TW is neither of those genres, but it is so far removed from being a 4X that not even the devs are dumb enough to tag it as such to increase sales and that should tell you something.

      How does normal, armor piercing, magic and fire damage actually work? Afaik fire damage does practically nothing except that it takes advantage of vulnerabilities. Are both Normal and AP damage counted as fire damage if a unit has that modifier?

      Normal damage gets heavily reduced by armor and phys res, and I guess armor piercing goes straight through armor but not phys res? Magical attacks go straight through phys res I guess? Does anything go through melee defence?

      I've played these games for more than 1000 hours together but never really bothered to find out the specifics. Does Magical/Fire attacks interact with armor in some other way? And is it possible to calculate how much damage will be reduced given a certain armor value?

        Fire/magic damage are the biggest waste of mechanics in TW.

        Fire only does bonus damage to the FEW units weak to fire. It doesn't even stop regeneration on enemy units, as it should.
        Magic damage in TW1/TW2 only used to ignore PHYSICAL resistance on the FEW units that have it, still did nothing on WARD resistance. I heard they are changing this for IE but don't remember how.

          That has been changed as of TWW3 - if I recall correctly, it reduces healing by 50%
          Magic attacks were definitely pretty niche, but they are better with the many daemon factions around all having physical resistance on their units

        Here's something you may wish to have known 1000 hours ago. I only ever run my units, battles are literally never so closely matched that vigour is a factor in victory or defeat even at VH.

        Anonymous

        >Normal damage gets heavily reduced by armor and phys res, and I guess armor piercing goes straight through armor but not phys res? Magical attacks go straight through phys res I guess? Does anything go through melee defence?

        This is all correct. You probably already know you can see the split between base and AP weapon damage by mousing over the number; not all units listed as "armour piercing" are equal and some can still do tons of damage even if they're not listed as AP (for example, goblin archers with their scrap upgrade). Fire damage doesn't do anything unless the receiving unit has weakness/resistance to fire (notably, all units with regeneration have a fire weakness and Fire casters confer a weakness to fire with every spell cast, so it's almost always an upside). Magical attacks pierce physical resistance but not ward save, on that subject it's worth noting that 'magic resistance' in WH2 was universally changed to 'spell resistance' in WH3, so now nothing except Ward Save can reduce magical melee attacks. Melee defence doesn't have anything to do with damage, it's just dodge chance.

        >And is it possible to calculate how much damage will be reduced given a certain armor value?

        iirc, the damage reduction for armour is as follows; it chooses a random percentage value between your armour value and armour/2, and reduces non-AP damage by that percentage. So if you have 60 armour, it will be anywhere between 30% and 60% reduction of non-AP damage. All units no matter how weak do at least 1 AP damage so you can't become completely invincible, mind.

                That's not quite right. The Church itself is nothing here but Catholics themselves are quite a presence. We're not Ireland where the Church is ends up running things. It's more like if you dumped a bunch of North Koreans agents into South America. They'd continue to do what they're programed to do but disconnected from the actual leadership. It's very odd.

                For instances, for decades control of the police in this country was a constant battle between the Free Masons and the Catholics. But if you asked the pope where Australia was he'd just shrug.

      He expected what everybody else was expecting due to experiences with WH2: a major patch to fix a couple of the most glaring issues immediately and Immortal Empires to come out within a month or two of release. It was only after it became clear CA weren't going to be doing any major patching right away and that IE was months away that he turned on it.
      And to be fair, I myself like the game. There were a couple of things that needed to be addressed immediately (performance, mass issues with units, some AI issues) but I do think WH3 is an improvement over what we had when WH2 came out. It's the campaign that is utter garbage, which I could deal with since I didn't care about WH2's campaign either, just ME...except CA came out and said "hey, so about IE...it's not coming any time soon." And there's not a chance I'm playing that utterly fricking garbage campaign more then once.

      They've recently gotten a small rework adding the rune forge mechanic and touching up on some of their other mechanics, and way before that there was the update where Ungrim finally moved to slayer keep and giant slayers were added. Why they haven't gotten much DLC though is beyond me. Perhaps they didn't want to fill game 2 with a bunch of game 1 race DLC. What they REALLY need to do is update skill trees for generic game 1 lords and heroes as they've barely been touched on since they were added.

      Dwarfes were reworked twice already. You don't see this reworks mentioned, because they were always in the update focused on other races, in other news they have 0 new units added since The King and the Warlord DLC. The biggest change in latest rework made runes a magic-like system without it being actually magic. Runes-craft that function like banners. All Lords have now 3 slots for runes in yhe place where caster lords have their magical item and each LL have minimum 3 personal grudges in the book from the start. Also you can recruit slayers like regiments if your grudge bar is too high

      Whatever you can survive really. The more moronic aspects are toned down in WH3 like obscenely expensive upkeep for multiple armies. Also don't move it off normal battle difficulty or melee troops become increasingly useless. WH3 is a lot better on this front too but personally having melee troops actually accomplish things without stacking 100 bonuses is nice.

      I think they toned down the AI melee cheats so harder battle difficulty might be more fun in IE, but currently you're better off with Very Hard/Normal.

              Some of that shit did need somewhat of a nerf though. The dipshit exposes the problems with the current systems, abuses the frick out of them and then cries "X is ruined!" when they're gone.

              Now I don't think most of CA's attempts at fixes are good but something like character passives being active when the character isn't on the map should obviously not be there, the attaman thing for kislev is a decent kind of alternative, you have a provincial lord who faffs about and him being able to fight in defencive battles is a nice bonus.
              Not so for slaves, old system was okay by itself but the stacking bonuses needed to go. The new system just needs a better way to spend slaves to be better recieved.

      WarHam games have a lot of hidden mechanics. From faction specific, to stats specific, to economy specific, to hero specific, to diplomacy specific, to tech trees specific. If you want to take your single player gaming in WarHam to the next level, you could learn a lot from him. I play on Hard/Hard and if I'm replaying a faction I have already played, I'll install mods for them, watch a few of his videos, then I'll cheese and make meme stacks, for fun.

      How you are meant to play the game and how you can stretch out the game's vussy, vary greatly. One is your basic tempered gaming experience of linear progression, the other is a personal challenge experience seeing if you are good enough to get away with it.

          I dunno, my favorite campaign of all Total War is still the WRE, there's something about managing to plug all the holes in your massive sinking ship and making the comeback of a lifetime after getting bullied all game that really gets me going. There's nothing like that in WH.

          I think the design philosophy of the TW:WH games has been get people fighting as soon and as much as possible, everything else is to make that happen. Which considering it's based on a tabletop wargame that has no real campaign mechanics to speak of, is fair enough. Of course this means CA can be lazy c**ts so that's probably the real reason.

          [...]
          Only if you go to Reddit.

          Yeah I get that. And I think something was said about them kind of holding back on WH1 since they didn't know if it was going to succeed or not (classic CA moronation) so there being a precedent might also factor in. But a good chunk of the game is spent on the campaign map and there is fun that could be had there so why skimp on it? Even something as basic as seasons (which should've been added when Wood Elves were added wtf were they thinking) could add depth and flavor

Which considering it's based on a tabletop wargame that has no real campaign mechanics to speak of, is fair enough. Of course this means CA can be lazy c**ts so that's probably the real reason.

        Total War has one of the worst fandoms in all off gaming. They treat CA like Muslims treat Mohammed.

            The WH2 one consists of the same homosexual hyper ventiliating over his High Elf waifu and demanding she be in the game. Or begging for the Plaguebearer achievement.

            I dunno, my favorite campaign of all Total War is still the WRE, there's something about managing to plug all the holes in your massive sinking ship and making the comeback of a lifetime after getting bullied all game that really gets me going. There's nothing like that in WH.
            [...]
            Yeah I get that. And I think something was said about them kind of holding back on WH1 since they didn't know if it was going to succeed or not (classic CA moronation) so there being a precedent might also factor in. But a good chunk of the game is spent on the campaign map and there is fun that could be had there so why skimp on it? Even something as basic as seasons (which should've been added when Wood Elves were added wtf were they thinking) could add depth and flavor

            There's a lot that would be great to add to the game and flesh out the strategy layer but CA is gonna CA.

        Atilla wasnt a successful game, anon. It was really hard for normies to deal with it WRE and ERE on an economical level. All the while I wont call ERE campaign difficult because you are economical supperpower, if you know what you are doing you can conquer entirety of the map from sasanids to slavs pretty much before atilla is born autorseolving most of the battles. And then it is still unfun to play huns.
        In warham economy and management is an afterthought. Its all about expanding and fighting battles. The more you fight the more you win. The more you win the more you fight. And then due to how powerful LLs become with levels warham gives incredible snowballing possibilities where you can crush enemy armies with LLs alone. Its like Shogun2 which was also just be super agressive and snowball into oblivion barely thinking about economy.
        The only unique faction in warham for me are the wood elves because they get only few settlements but in return those settlements are absurdly powerful and you can teleport armies between them with a short cooldown. Its fun.

          I didn't find it that hard. You just used triage and kept your productive/defensible provinces defended and just let the low production or far flung provinces get conquered. Then once you had a productive core you re-expanded.

          That was hard?

        Does Boris actually have any means of confederating Katarin & Kostaltyn or does he just piss around on the sidelines until one of them absorbs the other?

                Depends on the lord. Some lords have skills that are amazing for the entire faction, to the point you can't say that their only value is as a single unit. And in a game where a lord can potentially pull the majority of the weight in battles, choice of legendary lord can change just how well your campaign can proceed

      Wood Elves had a decent DLC that was focuse on them with a good rework
      Norsca as a whole should get rework with DLC, didn't have one in ages, small rework in WH3
      HE had 2 DLCs and 2 FLCs, first DLC was focused more on them tlin comparison to DE in my opinion, no reworks, but they're overall good, maybe more options to diplomacy, still have some units to add.
      DE had 2 DLCs and 2 FLCs, non focused on them in my opinion, second was equally matched between DE and Skaven but overall forgettable, no huge reworks, small reworks to lords both in WH2 and WH3, will have shit rework to slaves in WH3, don't remember if they have any units to add
      Skaven had 3 DLCs and one FLC, only one is really DLC is really focused on them, good reworks in WH2 with under-empire, all base and FLC lords shoud be reworked so.
      Lizardman had 3 DLCs and 2 FLCs, non were focused on them, have shit overall mechanics and had 0 good reworks, should get reworks and are basically confirmed to get them.
      Tomb Kings and Vampirates are both DLC factions, I doubt we will get anything for them in a while, Tomb Kings are more likely to get one and even if Vampiretes will get any, they will probably receive some madeup shit in Cathey.

        I know you're talking about Ikit but I'd argue both Snikch and Throt stole the show in their DLCs. The DLC team really poured the effort in for their faction mechanics meanwhile Malus and the Sisters kind of got shafted. Unit-wise they were kind of even. The DLC team really has a hard-on for Skaven, which is why I think they are secret regular /twg/ posters

          Im not saying Throt and Snikch are a good counterparts of their respective DLCs in fact I would consider putting Throat above sisters pre fixing their mechanics. But you should agree that there was more focus on WE in Sisters/Throat DLC and as I said about DE section Malus/Snikch DLC is even on focus (even if a think DLC is actually bad), but I think there was more focus on DE than on Skaven even if I would again agree that Snicks mechanics are better implemented than Malus'

            I disagree. I think you're conflating the Wood Elf rework and Drycha with the DLC, but the former were free to everyone who already owned the Wood Elf DLC. If you compare Throt's part of the DLC to the Sisters' part of the DLC then it's clear that Throt won.

        Supply lines no longer frick them over and that was the biggest issue. This also removes the "need" of doomstacking, which means you can actually employ smaller armies to patrol your realm.

      Empire, I still think they have some odds and ends, and a knightly order or two not yet implemented. Could go a Boris route, and add units based on that.
      Dorfs kinda, they would have to dig a bit deep to get the units, and some of them like Golems or Shard Dragons are..very divisive, airships/zeppelins I think most people could go for.
      Vampire Counts have a few small things to add, and could fluff some shit up, likewise, Neferata's faction was added to the game, so her being a DLC lord could happen. The red duke was also in a leak, but that could easily just be someone fricking around.
      Skaven STILL, these frickers are mostly missing their really crazy shit
      Norsca, I'm not really sure they could add, but I would appreciate some more lord options.
      Tomb Kangz could a few more units to flesh them out, maybe bring a melee bone giant to play.

    What was Games Workshop thinking when they created Nippon? Pretty much all of their major characters are named after japanese car brands and then pretty much forgotten. I dont see any chance of this faction being added into the game unless CA gets to do their own thing like they did with Cylostra.

            Well, then they should fire their lead software engineer and really re-think their tech from scratch because at this point, it actively becomes a detrimental to the development process. Otherwise they wouldn't release games with the same bugs as the games before and require delays to deliver core features (immortal campaign).

          It's just frustrating since the engine actually seems to be able to run well, looking at Troy. But CA is also notoriously shit at internal communication so knowledge that's worth passing on by the more competent devs doesn't get passed on and instead morons build upon old code and reintroduce bugs that were previously fixed.

    WH3 just dosent feel like an army is battling out. It feels like if each unit is like a card and the cards just attack each other stats. It dosent feel like a simulation of a person.

    will anyone else make a game like old Total War with historical accuracarate battles and a sort of simulator of running a kingdom?

      Paradox might but they don't release games anymore. They release DLC platforms and con their community into dumping hundreds of dollars into that.

      nope. the total war niche is big enough for one series and it already exists. imagine trying to make a WoW-killer for a genre a hundred times smaller than WoW.

      Would be nice since CA desperately needs competition to get them out of their complacency. But very unlikely because of this

      It's every strategy player's wet dream, CK2 mixed with total war.
      There is a developer doing something similar but not quite it, I don't remember the name of the game.
      I think it's too ambitious of a project, would end up either barebones or bloated.

      there are a few gpt-3 implementations that are more or less capable of generating "i googled my question and copy/pasted from substack" levels of code but you can already get that for cheap and nobody wants it.

    Remember when the series was about positioning, moving your troops, picking your fights, setting ambushes, flanking, focus firing etc?

    But can the Unreal engine handle mass combat? Obviously not a coder but it always amazed me how the TW games can look better than FPS even with thousands of units on screen while FPS are basically corridor games or open world with shit draw distance.

      Of course not, they probably clamp the unit down, probably like 400-800 on screen. Also, you have to consider consoles too

                From an execs perspective thats probably the smart business choice to be honest, probably hoping to catch the Overwatch dropoff.

                lel it's world of warcraft clones all over again.
                No it's not smart it's absolutely moronic, it's like if I became CEO of some big name bicycle company and then just made models off what my 9 years old nephew is riding like an absolute moron.
                >lel people are all satisfied playing this game, let's make a pale copy that everybody is already tired of playing then!
                It's so dumb, it's so fricking dumb, these people are barely human.

                If the next big fad is people playing a certain game, you don't remake the game, you complement that game, you look into what people would like to play after they get bored of that type of game and you make that instead of listening to literal 9 years old opinions and passing that as "smart business decisions".

                Dark Souls was a success partly because of World of Warcraft, it was the best type of game to play after that.

          I doubt they have anyone competant on the engine side anymore and if they do have someone he's probably getting fricked by management and directors who wouldn't know a good game if it poked them in the eye.

        You'd have to write some incredibly efficient code to make Unreal Engine handle thousands of individually moving entities all at once but that kind of defeats the point of using UE in the first place.

      From a rendering point of view, maybe? I mean, Epic is marketing "Nanite" as this magical thing that should make this possible, if it is applicable to dynamic objects. But it's just glorified dynamic tesselation.

      From a gameplay point of view, it shouldn't be to hard. Pathfinding for many units/agents is usually done via some flowfield algorithm these days. Question is if they can update they AI to be less shit and also handle air units. I mean, the AI still has still the same problems with ship battles in Three Kingdoms that it had in Empire.
