      QRD on checkerboard formation?

      • 1 year ago
        Anonymous

        Each units stands "separate" in a square becaue that way:
        -if charged, they don't all go into melee so you don't lose as much DPS
        -can turn the fastest because their unit doesn't need to move that much
        -units behind can shoot into the gaps and your enemy often doesn't push further in

            It's even easier with Skaven because their weapon teams have very small entity numbers so it's easier to fit them into formation (but they'll get instagibbed if charged into, so pay attention).

              A single unit will make a 80 speed full health cavalry rout, nothing can charge them unless you are fighting 2 to 1 or their speed is 130, which it won't be.

            Not even worth it tbh. Skavenslaves are so expendable and cheap that friendly fire doesn't matter. In fact I actually consider it a useful to trick as Skaven to bog an important enemy unit in a horde of skavenslaves and then open up with ratling guns or whatever else. Skaven infantry is utterly expendable, even their """elite""" infantry.

            Nah, tho you can strech in some situations. Using the checkerboard in 100% of battles isn't optimal.

            it is kind of ironic how the most balanced and diverse gameplay is in pvp. It's usually always the opposite in games.

      While this mostly applied in TW2, in TW3 Infantry kinda feel like it has more place to shine instead of just being meat shield, granted you have the adequate Lord/Faction.
      Melee Demons do pretty good in general as long as you're not facing tons of magic-projectiles ranged units, and the fact that you can't just have virtually infinite Winds of Magic make Mage still important but not as pivotal to your army as they used to.

        Melee infantry will always be inferior to hammer and anvil or missile spam, even juiced up melee infantry will take lots of damage vs inferior melee infantry, even more if they're being shot at and the AI is pretty good at making your elite infantry miserable.
        Meanwhile archers/fusiliers in checkboard formation cost almost nothing and work just aswell.

        I wish they made friendly fire more of an issue to fix that but then you'll the people crying they can't no longer use their fusiliers to shot over their own infantry.

    Consider army composition and what you're up against wherever you are in your campaign. For example, if you're against dwarves, who are primarily a high-armor, ranged focused faction, you'd want to focus on fast units that can outmaneuver their ranged attacks via speed or stealth, and have armor piercing so they can beat them in melee.

      Most units will just crumble when getting hit with a double charge, then you moved on down the line.
      Alternatively, you can just have them lap around and hit their archers or siege engines from behind.

      Cavalry shines as an anti AI irritant counter. Their job is to tie up the cavalry/war hounds that would normally pull some slinky bullshit and slip through the 1cm gap in the infantry defending your flanks, doing practically nothing while still being incredibly annoying.
      Though granted, a hero is better if you want to fire into the blob that forms around them.

    Ambush Stance is REALLY overpowered. How it works is that if your army passes the ambush check (rolling your ambush chance versus detection chance) the AI will treat your army as if it's not there. So if there's an enemy army turtling inside a settlement that would be a pain in the ass, then get your main army in ambush stance using either a nearby settlement or a lone secondary lord as bait (it has to be within an one turn move or the AI might not go for it) and you can easily separate and kill them. This is also the best way to deal with the AI when it's force marching around your territory being an annoying pain in the ass. Again, use ambush stance + bait to catch them (or, if they're not in range, to get close undetected). As an additional benefit this lets the bait lord quickly build up free levels due to always being involved in combat, so when he gets to 15 or so you can 'graduate' him into leading a full army and pick up a new level 1 lord for ambush bait. I always head straight for ambush chance in the blue line for every lord if my faction allows it, it makes the game play so much smoother.

    However if you're fighting Beastmen, Skaven or Tzeentch only ever use lords you don't care about losing as bait, because they can (and will) ambush attack and kill them. That'll still leave them stuck in your main army's reach to be finished off the following turn, but you'll have to rehire a new lord every time.

        Detection has no % to trigger (unlike ambush success chance) - if you're too close to an enemy city/agent/army, you'll just get detected, doesn't matter how big is your ambush success chance.

        • 1 year ago
          Anonymous

          That's not true
          You don't necessarily get detected by agents, there's a chance you get detected by agents, which is seprate than the success chance of the ambush
          And the funniest shit is that even friendly agents can expose an ambush.

      • 1 year ago
        Anonymous

        Unembedded heroes and settlements can detect you, which have their own separate detection roll. There are also ambush detection skills that can be gained through levelling, traits or equipment that the enemy lord might have. Additionally, the detection roll happens twice - once at the start of their turn to see if they detect you, and again when they actually trigger the ambush to determine whether it'll be an ambush battle or a regular battle.

      The main campaign in TW3 was absolutely horrible. I didn't like the Vortex campaign in TW2 but once you know how to play around the campaign mechanics, it was bearable. There are basically no ways of playing around the mechanics in TW3, and even though they mellowed out most of the BS thing, it's still not really pleasant to play.
      Making Immortal Empires available to everyone was a pretty good move, but you could argue that's too little, too late.

    The last total war I played was Rome 2, it's been like 10 years. I just bought Warhammer 3 and I'm trying to play the Karl Franz. It's going pretty good, I've got the elector lands unified finally. But sometimes I'm still losing what should be easy fights. I'm having to outnumber my opponents 2x before I'm able to win some fights, and that's with good units.

    How do i build empire armies? Right now I'm going 5 heavy infantry, 2 ranged, 5 heavy cav, 2 ranged cav, 2 steam tanks and 2 artillery, a general and an agent or wizard. Basically I'm doing old fashioned tank with infantry and let ranged go to work and cav flank from behind. The problem is unlike previous total wars, where if you had good enough troop quality and morale and positioning, your infantry can hold people off, but in Warhammer 3 my infantry gets melted by spells, flying shit, and special powers that I'm not even aware of. And it always seems my opponents have some OP artillery guns that out range and out gun mine. My infantry often gets routed in seconds.

    Is my build bad or is this a skill issue or what? I'm playing normal difficulty on both battle and map.

    And 2nd problem is I'm involved in over 15 simultaneous wars right now. Every faction that has even slightly negative disposition and are on my borders have declared on me. I haven't declared a single war this game: all I did was defend myself and eat up electors using the fame system. Is this working as intended or is this a bug? Everytime I stackwipe an enemy, 2 more pop up in its place. I can't move my armies anywhere because some random army from a random faction 2/3 across from the map has sent an exploratory mission pasting 50 turns to attack my one unoccupied province on the front. This AI is bullshit right??

      Always put a warrior priest in your armies for more replenishment. Maybe lessen some cav for more missile troops. Basic troops are actually quite good at holding (spearmen shields, halberdiers). Cheaper too. Always have at least 1 to 2 artillery to dictate the flow of battle. Wizards are also useful.

    • 1 year ago
      Anonymous

      Some things to consider re; army comp: first, halberdiers are straight up better than greatswords. I know it doesn't make sense that a lower tier unit would be better, but they're cheaper and are better at defence (they'll mulch cavalry and have charge defence). Your infantry isn't meant to be killy like Khorne daemons or High Elf Swordmasters, they're there to hold the line and protect your damage dealers. Two ranged units is too few, handgunners are the most cost effective unit on the Empire roster (though they're a bit more work than crossbowmen). I usually have between six and eight. Empire has within the top three best artillery in the game, get Hellstorms and don't bother with cannons - focused fire from multiple handgunners will kill any SEM in seconds, so they're not needed.

      About the wars; generally the way it works is that the AI always wants to be in at least one war, and if they're not at war with anyone else they'll probably declare on you because of the anti-player bias. By swallowing up elector counts you've drastically increased your territory and therefore the number of factions you're in contact with, and so dragged yourself into a lot of wars. The best way to fix it is to build maxed walls in every settlement (even your most central ones, because the AI WILL dive for them) and focus on reducing the amount of enemies you're at war with. Pick the nearest faction and fully obliterate them, even if you have to cede territory in the rear. You can always get that back, but once you're rid of an enemy you're rid of them forever, so you've made progress.

      Also Franz is one of the hardest campaigns in the game, so you kinda fricked up there (I assume you fell for CA's stupid 'recommended first campaign' icon), but it sounds like you're managing alright and managed to get to tier 5, so good job.

      You can quicksave before battles, so don't be afraid to try them out, you can always load back and auto-resolve it if doesn't turn out the way you'd expect.
      It's important to get a good feel of how unit work, how fast they move. Some units are really micro-intensive, other can just be left as is. I would say to try to not diversify too much your army composition at first, just go for infantry with shields backed by missile units, and then try to sprinkle a few spicy units here and there and see if they perform as well as you'd imagine.

      I'm actually playing it for the first time since WH1 right now. I think I prefer the vanilla balance but it's nice for a change, I feel like I'm learning the game all over again. I just got absolutely mulched by a couple Doomfire Warlocks which I wasn't expecting at all, their lethal poison is no joke.

      What factions would you recommend for a complete newbie?

      Tyrion (Eataine, High Elves) or Zhao Ming (Western Provinces, Cathay). Both races are balanced generalists who have access to basically all classes of units so you can properly experiment with army comps, as opposed to specialised factions like Lizardmen who lack ranged options or decent cavalry for example. As for why those particular characters; Tyrion starts off owning one of the richest settlements in the game and his island is easy to defend and has few enemies. Meanwhile, Cathay is currently very underdeveloped until various DLCs populate it, so you mostly only have to deal with pushover minor Cathay factions and Ogres, so Zhao Ming's one of the easiest starts in the game.

      I like it for the most part. Disliked the battle changes at first but I've started to get used to it. It's fun having more effects available for units. The balance isn't perfect though. I like using factionwide and army caps (depending on the faction) and while some lower tier units are way better and useful for longer, some high tiers feel castrated. For instance, I find Slaanesh's Heartseekers are monsters in vanilla but trash in sfo especially compared to regular seekers. Campaign SFO is mostly good. Like most updated faction mechanics/buildings/landmarks

      I'm playing it for the first time at the moment because my beloved CTT is currently MIA and probably will be for literal years at this rate and it seems pretty fun so far. Played Skaven and Lizardmen and I wouldn't say any of the new additions felt particularly bloat-y.

      ku'gath and nurgle are hard, very difficult starts make both a struggle to start with, wouldn't reccomend
      bel'akor is basically as easy or hard as you want to make him, his portal mechanics let him decide who/where he wants to fight, you could go to norsca, bretonnia/marienburg, or even cross the ocean to ulthuan/naggarond
      skarbrand isn't as unga as you'd think, since to succeed with him you basically need to manually fight all battles to minimize losses, so that you keep momentum and make the best of his bloodletting mechanic
      most of the WoC are pretty easy, if you want a fun time i recommend vilitch if you have CoC

      All four mono daemon factions have difficult starts but become extremely powerful when their lord starts getting levelled (even Skarbrand, who's strong from turn one, has a rough start because settlements in the Badlands are so far apart from each other and he thrives from tumbling into multiple settlements a turn, so until you can expand north into the Empire/mountains you'll be running on low gear). Be'lakor and Archaon are easy (Archaon's start position is basically invincible) and Daemons of Chaos (aka Daniel) is just not fun right now, so don't bother with him at all.

                A Wurzag army is literally ONLY counterable by the A.I. stacking high tier single entities, since they’re the only thing immune to his foot of gork spam, and even then that’s only if you’ve not got big uns aroind, since his savage orc buffs mean they can laugh off anything outside of magic attacks while pounding them into the dirt.
                Gelt’s not as personally powerful, but he doesn’t even have the single entity spam weakness due to his artillery buffs, and anything that can get locked into a blob is utterly fricked as he endlessly spams low cost blob destroyers on a tiny cool-down.

                Not him but that list is obviously ranking lords solely by melee capability, that's why Ku'gath is S tier despite having such shit campaign mechanics and Kairos is C tier despite being probably the single most destructive lord in the game when levelled. You should be able to tell that at a glance.

Not necessarily amazing because of its mechanics, graphics, or design, but because in spite of its many achievements AND flaws, you can always tell that the people working behind the Total War Warhammer series do so with complete and unfiltered love for the lore and setting.

          I'm 100% on this boat, which is why I hate that Chorfs came so soon, as they very well could be the last DLC we get because they're the only guaranteed sellers in Warhammer 3. CA should have saved them for last if they truly wanted to milk Warhammer 3 and keep it going as long as possible, them coming so soon means they plan to move on quickly, which means less reworks and less updates.

            A bit disappointing, it took them 1 year to come up with a new race that everybody wanted and even then, it's not as much content as past DLC. I want to buy it because I want to support the work the current DLC team is doing, they're good people with real passion but it makes me sick knowing my money goes towards financing Hyenas.

      I'm on a 1060 so I run the game medium with only unit sizes and unit textures at their max since that's mostly what I like looking good.
      The look of the game for the campaign map definitely isn't as good as previous entries. Though the unit quality has gotten way better. It's actually hilarious if you put up the WH3 units next to WH1 units and compare their textures and details.

      Vampires
      Your units are super durable thanks to regeneration abilities and expendable since you can always just raise more chaff the moment the battle ends, you have no range* apart from magic, and poses many heavy hitter monsters/units/lords, this means you have to make use of hammer and anvil tactics to their upmost degree keep them still with your skeletons and hit them with your aforementioned magic/monster/cavalry/lord
      Repanse
      she buffs peasants to be comparable (roughly) with better infantry, most of her enemies are weak to the fire attacks she gives the army, she is a monster ta killing undead and you can always rely on questing knights. so you do basically the same as with vampires except your peasants aren't ass disposable and instead of monsters you plow the enemies with the hoves of errantry. you also get access to one of my favourite artillery pieces, the blessed trebuchet.

                Ambushes have always been great against the AI but previously it at least put up a fight. Now it just roll over. I'm not sure now but I dunno if this bug is also in WH3. It'd be funny if it wasn't.

    I'm not able to buy Total Warhammer 3 due to reasons beyond my control. Is it still good when pirated?

    Spam ranged units and hide them behind your melee units. Do this for 100-150 turns until you can build tier V units then just spam those instead. Congratulations, you solved the game as every single race.

      Those mods are degenerate corruption crap
      The stuff that's on the WH2 and WH3 workshop made mostly by guys like LIG is great though. The fricker that made the Miao corruption mod and all the other variants needs to die. Single handedly resposible for CA cracking down on lewd stuff in general with the WH3 workshop.

        Except that's not true, CA has been cracking down on lewd mods in the workshop ever since a certain CA employee got offended by their presence in Three Kingdoms.

          WH2 has plenty of titty mods on the workshop. I only had to outsource a few of them and they were both chink shit. Then this guy comes in oozing cringe all over the characters which made CA bring the hammer down.

          >implying
          Grace b***hed but that's objectively fricking false
          Free the Morathi mod stays up in WH2's workshop and gets removed in WH3's
          LIG's models have gotten more censored and it's even been backwards applied to WH2's shit for some like Morathi.
          It's objectively visible the impact that the Miao corruption trash and its ilk has had. And to be clear, I've got nothing against some coom and nude mods. But when you start putting pregnancy and demon birthing fetishes into your mods because you're a LITERAL slaneesh worshipping degenerate, you've reached the point where hanging you is fair fricking game.

      Pretty good. Units kind of forgettable but the lords are a lot of fun

      Very good. Good units and fun lords, Orcs being the winner
      >The Silence & The Fury
      Very good as well. Both lords are a lot of fun and the Beastmen lord is hella op

      Absolutely. Very cool faction.

      Some of the corruption stages are fine. He just went a step too far with the mechanics and shit and now everyone gets to pay for his cringe.

        Even the models are shit
        For example. His Morathi model is utter trash. The actual body is mostly not even his work it's commissioned, and he had the absolute shit taste to replace the big updoo and crown because he's a tasteless, smoothbrain moron that thinks making her look like a onlyfans e-thot somehow makes her more attractive.
        Literally can't comprehend the shit taste. He got so blown the frick out he released an alt version with the updoo and crown because he saw people telling him off on his shit taste.

          I won't deny Morathi (and Valkia) being lesser but you're a homosexual if you think his Katarin doesn't look better sans all the shitty tattoos. Same with Ming before it goes full degenerate. Give a good Morathi though since all the others on the workshop also got borked thanks to his bullshit.

            His Katarin is UTTER shit
            Look at her fricking neck anon. It's complete trash
            If you want a good Katarin skin here
            https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2799572937&searchtext=katarin
            In fact, Yogo Pogo is also up there as making really damn good visual mods. Not as lewd as LIG's but really good. He's also responsible for Valkia's mod where she gets the crazy 7th edition hair and the red leotard one. Good lad.

                Better but that's using the same head as the corruptiongay isn't it? Also if those are nips it's kind of obnoxious but that's where we're at since the gay had them lock the mods down I guess.

                That one looks nicer
                The issue with the coomer mod is that he didn't properly fix the model to account for the removal of the cloack's front clasp. It makes the neck seem unreasonably long

                You get titty mods for the elf characters and otherwise you just get nice looking ones for the others. You gotta be lore accurate.
