I mean it did take them a while to get the faction mechanics right for some of them in 2. I mean a couple were almost unusable until they were reworked (looking at you beastmen). hopefully this one will start off a little smoother and all the factions will be competitive right off the bat.
Ah so despite the colossal frick up and broken state the game released in and the preponderance of evidence of misallocation of resources you're going to pick this hill?

I don't know to what degree inclusiveness might have had an impact on that. I also don't know what their hiring practices are. But the DLC team is on the project now, as I understand it. That's somethin to cling to. But as far as inclusiveness in the game itself, I don't see how that impacts IM

You view brainwashed religion as truth instead of an ideology and until you can objectively view it then you remain a zealot much like a medieval peasant viewed God and the Devil as living and breathing things in their daily lives. You cower from the word "Black person" like a jungle savage cowers from the carved likeness of an evil God. You're just not intelligent enough to get it.

Well. Mainly because you can ignore basically the entire mechanic and just expand instead.
Still SIGNIFICANTLY better than realms of chaos though. Realms mega punishes you for doing anything besides getting 1 really OP army on your legendary lord and spamming end turn till you can get a soul. At least the Vortex required you to actually go out and capture ritual resource settlements. In Realms there is literally no point to expanding beyond what's required to have one powerful army on your legendary lord.
playing the empire is a meme right? you are not playing the boring humans in a game with demons, elves, undead, lizarmen, etc
Using actual military tactics to defeat giants and horrors beyond time is pretty fun. It also helps that the empire is actually really good at a couple of things, and not just some jack-of-all-trades factions. >Contender for best artillery in the game >Contender for best cavalry in the game >Large variety of wizards to suit your needs

Semi new to warhammer, I was wondering, I dont seem to understood chaos. By itself, it shouldn't just produce pure buttholes, it should produce... well chaos, a bunch of uncontrolled variety of people.
There should be people who are affected by chaos and not be pure buttholes or be the complete opposite.
>There should be people who are affected by chaos and not be pure buttholes or be the complete opposite.
Those are wizards and magic users in general, they use a controlled essence of chaos called the Winds of Magic. Chaos itself used to be a blank canvas but was twisted into the evil shit it is because it is fueled by all of the emotions of the mortals, where things like lust, hate, and ambition are a million times stronger in influence than things like love or compassion. Good warp entities exist, the gods of the Elves and Humans exist in the warp, but they're woefully underpowered.
I was thinking more of chaos worshipers and anything near the north poles. The closer they get to chaos, by itself they should be more affected toward the various aspects that makes a human and lose control of themselves, not only an butthole but being kind to others.
Humans living around the wastes have semi-functioning societies but they tend to be almost bronze age era nomads or warlords like the Kurgan or Norscans. They barbarians, but pledge themselves to a patron deity for protection to live in those lands, some come and settle in civilized lands and quit being c**ts, but the more they're exposed to chaos via pursuing favor from the gods the more corrupted they become. The Chaos Gods have a hold of what's imbued to mortals beyond the winds of magic, and those that try to take it for themselves just end up being twisted abominations. Chaos in the mortal realm is like radiation in comic books, it will either kill you or give you super powers with a terrible cost, except the radiation can also influence you to its own will and kill you by leaving if you don't listen to it.
Vilitch, i just mostly want to play with the warshrine
you might be thinking of 40k, chaos in fantasy is especially destructive, each gods only goal is total domination of the warp and to consume the material realm. there can be (arguably) good/honorable Northman but they are totally subservient to their masters. I think there is a passage about a norscan killing pregnant women and going on khornes shit list
>you might be thinking of 40k, chaos in fantasy is especially destructive
Honestly I'd say 40k Chaos is more dangerous because there aren't even the winds of magic to protect psykers there. Also the galaxy was ripped in two and chaos is spilling out into real-space to the extent that Nurgle's garden was in fricking Ultramar for a while. Just as grim as Fantasy but the scale is pants-on-head moronic bigger.
no I mean that more literally. fantasy chaos wants to destroy the physical realm and 40k wants to keep it alive and feed on it. 40k chaos gods lost the horus heresy on purpose because they want to feed off of humanities suffering

>40k chaos gods lost the horus heresy on purpose because they want to feed off of humanities suffering
That's still conjecture at this point. They wanted to win and destroy the galaxy for sure. There's a lot more holes explaining why everything ended up the way it did in 40k right now.
Khorne doesn’t really care who gets killed, but he does get royally pissed if someone kills someone helpless and offers it up as some kind of trophy.
The victim doesn’t matter, but the insult to him does.
"Chaos" doesn't mean random in this case. Chaos is by its nature a corrupting influence, so all its servants exhibit the traits of that corruption. You're not going to be worshipping any of those c**ts while being a swell guy, and even if you intend to use the powers while being a good boy, the corruption is inevitable
The Warriors of Chaos is equivalent of a CRUSADE called forth by a chosen of Chaos and homosexuals getting all the homosexuals around him a massive spew and army to ass rape the world/Southlanders, looking for spoils or favor of the Gods.
Norscans, Kurgans, Tongs, and Hungs, Imperial Cultists, are the cultures and tribes that usually mass into the Warriors of Chaos.
since they added azazel, you guys think we'll get the other kino characters from the champions of chaos book? I'm thinking arbaal the undefeated, aekold hellbrass, valnir and egrimm van horstmann would be based.
That would be too sexy but looks like Azazel is the exception, with Vilitch, Festus and Valkia being present. Still, super happy one of the classics returned. Here is hoping for a TT mini.
I don't. Not that I mind the character but mechanically I don't see that there's much to him aside from being a wizard on a monstrous mount, and there's more than enough of those already.
Probably Azhag. Next either Oxyotl or Vlad. I wonder what they'll do to stop Vlad getting steamrolled by all the order factions. He's completely surrounded and doesn't have Mannfred helping him anymore.
>have Mannfred helping him anymore
Bro he's where Mannlet used to be, meaning he's in a lot better of a position since he isn't splitting land between the two of them.
Nobody, I have already played tww1&2 factions multiple times, I have no interest in doing so again.
Maybe I'll try the DLC but I'm not that interested in more daemons with recycled mechanics.
>dorf gyrobombers carpet bombing shit with empire tanks and hellblaster artillery mopping everything else up
The skies shall rain fire and molten lead.
I forgot some people aren't playing Grimhammer. The vanilla skilltrees are so poorly designed. Regular spear Goblins can get something like 70+ Melee attack with the right lords and heroes which completely removes the incentive to spec your lords in any other way.
Regular goblins do no AP damage though. Yeah they can hold the line like Chosen, but you'd need something else to deal with single entities and armor. Nasty Skulkers are much better at punching above their weight.

>repeating memes instead of explaining where the supposed problems lie
Thanks for confirming you have never played it and don't know anything about TW either
I will live the life of Skarsnik and Franz forming a friendship that will unite gobbo and humie in a bond as powerful as the dawi and grumgi. We shall have mortars and guns with sneaky gits running the rest down.
Maybe I might actually try out Brettonia now that the outpost system is in place. I just couldn't bring myself to play a faction with neither interesting ranged units, artillery, nor monsters. I think it's the only faction I haven't played across all the games.
It did, N'kari itself attacked Ulthuan during the Great Incursion (and a couple of times after) but got so absolutely ass-blasted by Aenerion and his dragon that he holds a personal grudge against Aenerion's bloodline.
Sigvald tried to invade them before because he heard they had better hair than him but got his ass beat. He settled for burning Bretonnian villages to the ground over some bad wine.
I ran my first campaign on a 950. Week one.
No, it was not fine, and I did get a new card, but if my old 950 could somewhat manage it, a 2060 Ti should have very little issues. So long as you're not cracking everything to maximum.
Apparently, there are some hardcoded problems where the game stubbornly uses only 1 core, bottlenecking the performance. Or something. Apparently, it's been a thing since at least Shogun 2 if not earlier.
And on the other side of the spectrum, you have fricking Troy, that looks great and runs like a charm on a goddamn potato.
I have a 6800XT and it's the bottleneck 95% of the time, maybe when you take on two full stacks of skavenslaves it's the cpu that makes it chug but not usually.
Didn't someone discover everything is essentially being rendered twice or something like that? Like something fricking absurdly stupid that happens for no reason and hugely decreases performance.
I actually wouldn't be surprised. CA can be really derpy sometimes with their optimization.
Remember the reason for the long AI turns in Mortal Empires.
Hard to choose actually. Playing one of my old favorites like Dwarfs or Skaven on the expanded map is always tempting, but so are the TWWH3 factions since they're new. I only played a single Cathay campaign before dropping the game on account of Realms of Chaos being garbage and the game being buggy as frick with poor performance.
I wish foot lords were better, and you didn't have to ride everyone around on their stupid mounts, essentially turning them into their mounts. That's super gay.
Only reason to be on foot is to make you harder to hit. And that's totes mega-lame.
I appreciate ass as much as the next guy, but man I miss the days when game devs and nerdspace gays in general weren't afraid of breasts. And pretty faces, for that matter.
But at least this is better than the likes of Morathi. Ugh.
Literally Skarbrand, and probably Valkia as well
Which makes sense because they're the same patreon god as Taurox >122 melee attack >1200 weapon strength
And this isn't even with any of the super weapons like the Chainsword or Sword of Khaine

Doesn't Khorne mostly still use infantry blobs? I prefer lower entity counts
Khorne has minotaurs and other monsters if you want, but all you really need is Skarbrand
He's got one of the Khorne realm weapons, but iirc it's the weakest one
https://totalwarwarhammer.fandom.com/wiki/Skar%27s_Kraken-Killer
He could get way more raw damage out of Slaughter and Carnage once he's fully fed but Kraken Killer has a heal
>He could get way more raw damage out of Slaughter and Carnage
I think at a certain point the weapon damage doesn't really matter that much, >1k and you're going to delete any single entities that try to fight you, i'd value having healing and unbreakable more than i would getting to 2k damage well into a battle.
He's a one man doomstack
Every single one of his combat skills raises his base weapon strength until he starts with about 1000, and his unique weapon doubles that once he has enough kills
He also has by far the most MA out of any lord in the game and surprisingly decent regeneration
He can't fly like normal bloodthristers can though
Yup.
You just send Skarbrand at the enemy enemy army and see him do his thing. He CAN be killed, but he'll probably take 60% of enemy troopes with him.
Neat to know. Unfortunately I can't play TW3 cause my craptop is too old and can't run it so instead I am thinking of buying Skarbrand himself.
Fluff says
>and he had toppled cities with but one blow apiece,
Dude must have been fricking strong in his prime. Pretty cool you get to use him in the game.
He's probably the best in the game at deleting monsters and characters from the game, less efficient at killing large amounts of foot troops. He can only hit so many at a time, after all.

Skarbrand is ultimate duelists now. Even halfway upgraded literally nothing can 1v1 him. He'll kick everyone's ass.
Though do be careful about groups. Even 1 unit of low level infantry can absorb tonnes of damage. Skarbrand absolutely wrecks N'kari normally, but if there are any marauders nearby and they help out N'kari they'll make it much harder for Skarbrand.
I'm also happy to report that grug smash has become significantly better in warhammer 3 because melee units are stronger all around.
Better than they were on launch but still not good
Fun for a single playthrough
>literally nothing can 1v1 him >ku'gath enters the chat
Player N'Kari and player Ku'Gath kitted out correctly and leveled enough can take on AI Skarbrand, but if you do a head to head campaign against someone halfway decent nothing can touch him and you usually have to rely on army losses
>He could get way more raw damage out of Slaughter and Carnage

>How is whatever the Vortex campaign in WH3 is called?
It's terrible, literally so bad I stopped playing the game after my first playthrough. It's called "Realm of Chaos."
I played it on launch and found that even the Vortex campaign shit seemed to get very laggy on the overworld, did they ever fix that? If not, I would have to imagine Immortal Empires will be a disaster performance wise.
...fricked if I know. My small brain can't comprehend how does CA want to interteine WoC and Chaos Gods into one coherent whole and what happens if you don't have WH1 in your library.
Probably Lokhir, Gelt, Settra, or Sigvald. I'm really iffy on touching the new factions until they get some DLC because they look pretty barebones. Maybe I'll do a test run with Zhao Ming and Kostaltyn
Could be either. Ive seen armies of just hobgobs & men, sort of a huns/mongols thing, with Chorfs having hobbos, but as slaves. Idk, im just suspecting 2 DLC races and Chorf is a sure thing. Dogs of war, hobbos are both plausible, nippon's out the window based on the map unless they expand
Where else have they expanded the map in WH2 compared to the Mortal Empires announcement?

Maybe if they go the route of Grom where you buff the frick out of the weak units. I simply don't know enough about them, a hob goblin LL probably wouldn't be allowed to use any chorf units, right? Since gobbos are just the slaves

Neferata is in the Nagash mod and she's overtuned as frick, massively powerful. Also even if we did get Neferata way down the line as official DLC she won't look like that, she'd look like she did in 8th.
She, Nagash and Arkhan should have their own sub faction. Also Nagash should start as humble freshly raised skeleton with a mission to restore his greatness otherwise we may get another Ariel and that is a bad thing
Ariel should have been a Lord choice but they wanted her as a Hero so she could be in the same army as Orion even though Orion is a shit lord that no one plays
are you joking? even tho 40k games are shit nowadays the games that have already been made before DoW 3 and before GW started giving the IP to pretty much everybody who wanted to make a game about it are much, much better than anything fantasy ever got, fantasy was pretty much forgotten in the game industry until TWH while 40k has had gems like DoW 1/2 and even earlier games from all sorts of genres, the fact that GW made new lore/units/Factions and such for WH3 AFTER cannonically finishing the entire setting years ago already tells just how impactful TWH was for fantasy
I will be playing Karl Franz and I will be opening a word document to write thousands of words of LARP and roleplay to immerse myself and I will unify the realm of man and then eventually allow the Chaos invasion to skullfrick most of the world including the Empire staging a deliberately important key battle in Reikland with the best and brightest of the Empire who still survive
I love it. My last Warhammer 2 game with Empire was divided into chapters based around key events or wars or battles that I'd describe like an old imperial scribe.
For no goddamn reason, mind you. Because those miniscule graphical improvements (you can even argue if the game really does look better than WH2) do not explain such a gigantic performance drop.
Yeah, it's pretty bizarre. Battles in 2 I can run at 60-80fps on a mix of mostly high and ultra settings. Looks good, runs decently. In 3 I have to turn everything down to at least medium or I can't hit 60 at all once spells start flying. And the campaign map runs like absolute ass regardless of settings.

Huh, I have 2060 Ti and WH2 runs fine. By "fine" I mean 65-75 FPS on Ultra. WH3 on the other hand barely can keep 50 FPS on Medium-High.
I see no reason to buy 3080 Ti for a game that should comfortably run on much, much lower specs, just because some Britbong did a shoddy optimization work.

I am trained in chivalry warfare and I'm the top jouster in the entire dukedom of Bordelaux. Thou art naught to me but just another practice quintain. I will wipe thee out with holy wrath the likes of which has never been seen before in the Old World or beyond, mark my righteous vow. Thou think you can get away with thine slander? Think again, rapscallion. As we speak I am gathering my vassals all across the Dukedom and your craven dwelling is scouted by my mounted yeomen so you better prepare for war, brigand. The war that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. Thou shalt pay priests of Morr for your time is counted. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my lance. Not only am I extensively trained in personal combat, but all knights across the Dukedom heed my call and I will lead them in a glorious charge to wipe thy miserable derrière off the face of the Bretonnia, you scoundrel. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your snide "book learned" remark was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your lying tongue.

Ohhh, that's if you or the AI have an armory built in the settlement. But I do have a memory of certain AI controlled settlements having a bigger garrison than you could ever get
They'd be really stupid to not have Dawi pouring out of every unmolested Karak or having the Wild Hunt all start at the Oak and then fan out in all directions constantly. These endgame scenarios need flavor too.
new endgame crisis'es since WH3 made Chaos endtimes a little odd since all the baddies are in from the beginning.
If they're implemented well, that's really cool. Adding more easy replayability through customization. Different NPC factions can probably get screwed over or take advantage of those events better than others which will lead to more varied outcomes for late game.
So, they have removed the Chaos Invasion and replaced it with something else?
Cool, I guess, although I still would've liked Chaos to be a endgame baddie.
So the Empire has a pretty comfy place now right?
Outside of Norsca and Vlad there aren't many really big threats, feels like the only way to expand as Karl would require beating the shit out of Brettonia or Kislev.
Festus, the new semi Nurgle LL was previously famous physician and doctor in the Empire. He has several clinics, hospitals, sanatoriums funded by him pre downfall to chaos in Hochland and Nordland, + Brass Keep was taken by Nurgle forces in the End Times . Festus himself even has base of operations in the sewers of Altdorf, so him being in the Empire makes sense

Yes, plague wasn't necessary by Nurgle, but Nurgle kinda promised him a knowledge to deal with any plague, infection, etc in the return of eternal servitude. He was desperate and thought it was coming from Shallya so he accepted and got detailed information about every virus or disease in existence known to Nurgle in his head,

Chances are high.

I mean it did take them a while to get the faction mechanics right for some of them in 2. I mean a couple were almost unusable until they were reworked (looking at you beastmen). hopefully this one will start off a little smoother and all the factions will be competitive right off the bat.
Well so far I'm just glad that they didn't go full

What would be full cartoon mode exactly?

It absolutely will
The article is talking about the game, not the company, right?
Ah so despite the colossal frick up and broken state the game released in and the preponderance of evidence of misallocation of resources you're going to pick this hill?
I don't know to what degree inclusiveness might have had an impact on that. I also don't know what their hiring practices are. But the DLC team is on the project now, as I understand it. That's somethin to cling to. But as far as inclusiveness in the game itself, I don't see how that impacts IM
Yes yes I get it no amount of evidence will sway you from your religion. If you yourself don't question your indoctrination there's no way I can get through to you.
What the frick are you on about?
You view brainwashed religion as truth instead of an ideology and until you can objectively view it then you remain a zealot much like a medieval peasant viewed God and the Devil as living and breathing things in their daily lives. You cower from the word "Black person" like a jungle savage cowers from the carved likeness of an evil God. You're just not intelligent enough to get it.

No, it was as bad as realms of chaos

I think he meant in terms of being broken at release
oh
Well. Mainly because you can ignore basically the entire mechanic and just expand instead.
Still SIGNIFICANTLY better than realms of chaos though. Realms mega punishes you for doing anything besides getting 1 really OP army on your legendary lord and spamming end turn till you can get a soul. At least the Vortex required you to actually go out and capture ritual resource settlements. In Realms there is literally no point to expanding beyond what's required to have one powerful army on your legendary lord.
Using actual military tactics to defeat giants and horrors beyond time is pretty fun. It also helps that the empire is actually really good at a couple of things, and not just some jack-of-all-trades factions.

The Virgin and the Chad
Semi new to warhammer, I was wondering, I dont seem to understood chaos. By itself, it shouldn't just produce pure buttholes, it should produce... well chaos, a bunch of uncontrolled variety of people.
There should be people who are affected by chaos and not be pure buttholes or be the complete opposite.
>There should be people who are affected by chaos and not be pure buttholes or be the complete opposite.
Those are wizards and magic users in general, they use a controlled essence of chaos called the Winds of Magic. Chaos itself used to be a blank canvas but was twisted into the evil shit it is because it is fueled by all of the emotions of the mortals, where things like lust, hate, and ambition are a million times stronger in influence than things like love or compassion. Good warp entities exist, the gods of the Elves and Humans exist in the warp, but they're woefully underpowered.
I was thinking more of chaos worshipers and anything near the north poles. The closer they get to chaos, by itself they should be more affected toward the various aspects that makes a human and lose control of themselves, not only an butthole but being kind to others.
Humans living around the wastes have semi-functioning societies but they tend to be almost bronze age era nomads or warlords like the Kurgan or Norscans. They barbarians, but pledge themselves to a patron deity for protection to live in those lands, some come and settle in civilized lands and quit being c**ts, but the more they're exposed to chaos via pursuing favor from the gods the more corrupted they become. The Chaos Gods have a hold of what's imbued to mortals beyond the winds of magic, and those that try to take it for themselves just end up being twisted abominations. Chaos in the mortal realm is like radiation in comic books, it will either kill you or give you super powers with a terrible cost, except the radiation can also influence you to its own will and kill you by leaving if you don't listen to it.
Vilitch, i just mostly want to play with the warshrine
you might be thinking of 40k, chaos in fantasy is especially destructive, each gods only goal is total domination of the warp and to consume the material realm. there can be (arguably) good/honorable Northman but they are totally subservient to their masters. I think there is a passage about a norscan killing pregnant women and going on khornes shit list
>you might be thinking of 40k, chaos in fantasy is especially destructive
Honestly I'd say 40k Chaos is more dangerous because there aren't even the winds of magic to protect psykers there. Also the galaxy was ripped in two and chaos is spilling out into real-space to the extent that Nurgle's garden was in fricking Ultramar for a while. Just as grim as Fantasy but the scale is pants-on-head moronic bigger.
no I mean that more literally. fantasy chaos wants to destroy the physical realm and 40k wants to keep it alive and feed on it. 40k chaos gods lost the horus heresy on purpose because they want to feed off of humanities suffering
>40k chaos gods lost the horus heresy on purpose because they want to feed off of humanities suffering
That's still conjecture at this point. They wanted to win and destroy the galaxy for sure. There's a lot more holes explaining why everything ended up the way it did in 40k right now.
Khorne doesn’t really care who gets killed, but he does get royally pissed if someone kills someone helpless and offers it up as some kind of trophy.
The victim doesn’t matter, but the insult to him does.
"Chaos" doesn't mean random in this case. Chaos is by its nature a corrupting influence, so all its servants exhibit the traits of that corruption. You're not going to be worshipping any of those c**ts while being a swell guy, and even if you intend to use the powers while being a good boy, the corruption is inevitable
The Warriors of Chaos is equivalent of a CRUSADE called forth by a chosen of Chaos and homosexuals getting all the homosexuals around him a massive spew and army to ass rape the world/Southlanders, looking for spoils or favor of the Gods.
Norscans, Kurgans, Tongs, and Hungs, Imperial Cultists, are the cultures and tribes that usually mass into the Warriors of Chaos.

That would be too sexy but looks like Azazel is the exception, with Vilitch, Festus and Valkia being present. Still, super happy one of the classics returned. Here is hoping for a TT mini.
>arbaal the undefeated
He has a lore blurb in the latest build
>aekold hellbrass
is that the guy who killed a super-powered vlad in seconds by simple walking next to him?
He didn't really kill him, but Vlad did have to run away. The Felix Jaeger beat him solo.
God I fricking hope Von Horstmann gets in.
I don't. Not that I mind the character but mechanically I don't see that there's much to him aside from being a wizard on a monstrous mount, and there's more than enough of those already.
I just loved his novel. He's a badass.
i can't find the novel for free anywhere
Go to /tg/ in the warhammer general. They have literally every book in pdf there.
holy frick thank you anon
The mantle of Chaos is mine to bear
Probably Azhag. Next either Oxyotl or Vlad. I wonder what they'll do to stop Vlad getting steamrolled by all the order factions. He's completely surrounded and doesn't have Mannfred helping him anymore.
>have Mannfred helping him anymore
Bro he's where Mannlet used to be, meaning he's in a lot better of a position since he isn't splitting land between the two of them.
Nobody, I have already played tww1&2 factions multiple times, I have no interest in doing so again.
Maybe I'll try the DLC but I'm not that interested in more daemons with recycled mechanics.
I'm waiting for the Chaos Dwarfs.

I forgot some people aren't playing Grimhammer. The vanilla skilltrees are so poorly designed. Regular spear Goblins can get something like 70+ Melee attack with the right lords and heroes which completely removes the incentive to spec your lords in any other way.
Regular goblins do no AP damage though. Yeah they can hold the line like Chosen, but you'd need something else to deal with single entities and armor. Nasty Skulkers are much better at punching above their weight.

Oxyotl or Mazdamundi now his start position isn't cancer
mazdamundi's position is practically unchanged isn't it?
Yes, he is on same place as mortal empires and vortex
Mazdamundi hasn't moved, but a lot of lords have moved away from Lustria, making it less of a clusterfrick
Mazdamundi is pretty hard to move
ALBERIC
Maybe I might actually try out Brettonia now that the outpost system is in place. I just couldn't bring myself to play a faction with neither interesting ranged units, artillery, nor monsters. I think it's the only faction I haven't played across all the games.
Valkia or Vilitch
Can anyone that knows the lore of WHF tell me why slannesh doesn't invade ulthuan if they know the elfs are there?
It did, N'kari itself attacked Ulthuan during the Great Incursion (and a couple of times after) but got so absolutely ass-blasted by Aenerion and his dragon that he holds a personal grudge against Aenerion's bloodline.
thanks!
Sigvald tried to invade them before because he heard they had better hair than him but got his ass beat. He settled for burning Bretonnian villages to the ground over some bad wine.

I'll take that as a no, then.
as far as I know the campaign map still doubles as a GPU stress test
So, I assume that with Immortal Empires there is a big chance that my PC with 2060 Ti will detonate.
a 2060 Ti should be absolutely fine
Trust me, judging by my Realms of Chaos playthrough, it's not doing fine. It's not doing fine at all. So, I can guess IE will make it worse.
I ran my first campaign on a 950. Week one.
No, it was not fine, and I did get a new card, but if my old 950 could somewhat manage it, a 2060 Ti should have very little issues. So long as you're not cracking everything to maximum.
I used a 2070 and it was fine, stop being a b***h.
total war are more CPU hungry games
Apparently, there are some hardcoded problems where the game stubbornly uses only 1 core, bottlenecking the performance. Or something. Apparently, it's been a thing since at least Shogun 2 if not earlier.
And on the other side of the spectrum, you have fricking Troy, that looks great and runs like a charm on a goddamn potato.
you have not played warhammer 3 apparently, or you have an ancient CPU
I have a 6800XT and it's the bottleneck 95% of the time, maybe when you take on two full stacks of skavenslaves it's the cpu that makes it chug but not usually.
Wh3 is a black hole of any computing power you can have
Didn't someone discover everything is essentially being rendered twice or something like that? Like something fricking absurdly stupid that happens for no reason and hugely decreases performance.
Performance dropped to half or less compared to TWWH2, so they're definitely doing something majorly fricked.
I actually wouldn't be surprised. CA can be really derpy sometimes with their optimization.
Remember the reason for the long AI turns in Mortal Empires.
I can run WH2 on some very high settings, with another game in the background, better than I can WH3 by itself. Shit is ridiculous

Hard to choose actually. Playing one of my old favorites like Dwarfs or Skaven on the expanded map is always tempting, but so are the TWWH3 factions since they're new. I only played a single Cathay campaign before dropping the game on account of Realms of Chaos being garbage and the game being buggy as frick with poor performance.

Does he still ride a pony?
No, he and his horse are huge now.
Chaos Knights got upgraded, they are fricking enormous now.
I wish foot lords were better, and you didn't have to ride everyone around on their stupid mounts, essentially turning them into their mounts. That's super gay.
Only reason to be on foot is to make you harder to hit. And that's totes mega-lame.
Archaon or vilitch depending on the new shit tzeentch is getting.
Which dumb bong Black person at CA decided that the trailer music* for their vids can't be used for in-game factions
Not counting the 4 Monogod trailers for WH3 release, those are actually from other music studios
You WILL worship Khorne
too bad she looks like a buffy-style vampire in-game. got bogged by khorne
She has a nice ass in game and doesn't look like the gargoyle that got leaked so all's forgiven
Skarbrand and Taurox both have really well defined glutes too, Khorne is an ass-man
I appreciate ass as much as the next guy, but man I miss the days when game devs and nerdspace gays in general weren't afraid of breasts. And pretty faces, for that matter.
But at least this is better than the likes of Morathi. Ugh.
I just can't be into bald women.
Even if they have a sexily cone-shaped cranium?
I'm personally ok with some kind of hair replacement like tentacles, horns, horns feathers.

I'd love to play Warhammer Total War games, but I'm a shit whit real time battles 🙁
You can slow down time/stop time and issue orders m8
Are there any dumb grug smash WH3 factions? Basically I want Taurox's battle gameplay
Khorne. Khorne is... simple.
Khorne, obviously. Ogres, too.
Doesn't Khorne mostly still use infantry blobs? I prefer lower entity counts
You've got minotaurs and bloodthirsters and spawn if you want to monster mash.
Thanks
Guess I know which new faction to try first in 4 years when all the DLC goes on sale
mid-high level skarbrand can solo entire armies on normal battle difficulty easily
Also access to minotaurs, a line in exalted Bloodletters with them between shreds most anything that goes into melee.
Literally Skarbrand, and probably Valkia as well
Which makes sense because they're the same patreon god as Taurox
>122 melee attack
>1200 weapon strength
And this isn't even with any of the super weapons like the Chainsword or Sword of Khaine
Khorne has minotaurs and other monsters if you want, but all you really need is Skarbrand
Wait, why isn't Skarbrand wielding Slaughter and Carnage?
He's got one of the Khorne realm weapons, but iirc it's the weakest one
https://totalwarwarhammer.fandom.com/wiki/Skar%27s_Kraken-Killer
He could get way more raw damage out of Slaughter and Carnage once he's fully fed but Kraken Killer has a heal
>He could get way more raw damage out of Slaughter and Carnage
I think at a certain point the weapon damage doesn't really matter that much, >1k and you're going to delete any single entities that try to fight you, i'd value having healing and unbreakable more than i would getting to 2k damage well into a battle.
Havent played TW3 but is Skarbrand really as one man army as his trailer and fluff implies in the game?
He's a one man doomstack
Every single one of his combat skills raises his base weapon strength until he starts with about 1000, and his unique weapon doubles that once he has enough kills
He also has by far the most MA out of any lord in the game and surprisingly decent regeneration
He can't fly like normal bloodthristers can though
>mfw someone says non-dwarf/caster "one man doomstack"
Neat to know. Unfortunately I can't play TW3 cause my craptop is too old and can't run it so instead I am thinking of buying Skarbrand himself.
Fluff says
>and he had toppled cities with but one blow apiece,
Dude must have been fricking strong in his prime. Pretty cool you get to use him in the game.
He's probably the best in the game at deleting monsters and characters from the game, less efficient at killing large amounts of foot troops. He can only hit so many at a time, after all.
Yup.
You just send Skarbrand at the enemy enemy army and see him do his thing. He CAN be killed, but he'll probably take 60% of enemy troopes with him.
he's the main reason Khorne has the most fun and easy campaign in RoC
Hes the most powerful lord by far in terms of right click to win. Which is pretty lore accurate little to nothing could 1v1 him.
Valkia has the same bonuses yes.
Ogre's, Khorne, and Valkia (probably).
Skarbrand is ultimate duelists now. Even halfway upgraded literally nothing can 1v1 him. He'll kick everyone's ass.
Though do be careful about groups. Even 1 unit of low level infantry can absorb tonnes of damage. Skarbrand absolutely wrecks N'kari normally, but if there are any marauders nearby and they help out N'kari they'll make it much harder for Skarbrand.
I'm also happy to report that grug smash has become significantly better in warhammer 3 because melee units are stronger all around.
>literally nothing can 1v1 him
>ku'gath enters the chat
Ku'gath can't stand against him either. It just takes longer to kill him afaik.
Maxed out Skarbrand completely demolishes Ku'gath through his healing. And Ku'bois magic doesn't do much against Khorne's spell resistance.
How is whatever the Vortex campaign in WH3 is called?
AND WHEN THE FRICK ARE CHAOS DWARFS
It's ok for a playthrough or two, but the mechanics make it absolute garbage.
The community estimates a Chorf expansion this December/January.
Better than they were on launch but still not good
Fun for a single playthrough
Player N'Kari and player Ku'Gath kitted out correctly and leveled enough can take on AI Skarbrand, but if you do a head to head campaign against someone halfway decent nothing can touch him and you usually have to rely on army losses
He gets Gorefeast in campaign
when you get to turn 30 it opens lame ass portals in your territory you have to "race" through otherwise it starts spawning armies. i hate it so much.
>How is whatever the Vortex campaign in WH3 is called?
It's terrible, literally so bad I stopped playing the game after my first playthrough. It's called "Realm of Chaos."
I played it on launch and found that even the Vortex campaign shit seemed to get very laggy on the overworld, did they ever fix that? If not, I would have to imagine Immortal Empires will be a disaster performance wise.
>did they ever fix that?
Nope.
>If not, I would have to imagine Immortal Empires will be a disaster performance wise.
Yup. Never change CA.
>who will you play first?
Nakai
Yes, I'm serious
Okay, so let me get this straight: if I want warriors of chaos units in 3's daemons factions I need this new dlc?
Yes, but I think there's a handful of units coming as FLC. Just 3 or so though, iirc it's variants of Nurgle, Slaanesh and Tzeentch warriors
...fricked if I know. My small brain can't comprehend how does CA want to interteine WoC and Chaos Gods into one coherent whole and what happens if you don't have WH1 in your library.
Reminder that the grey market is a thing if you are a massive poorgay and havent bought WH1 or 2.
Is there any chance at all they'll ever add the Ind shit?
Maybe
I bet they open up the area but don't add an ind race
Depends what GW will do. They're the slowest Black folk in tabletop, however.
I hate India so I hope not
>their magic revolves around obnoxious odors that put Clan Pestilens to shame
>Pajeetmancers using lore of street shitting
>Ku’Gath starts on the island because he’s trying desperately to wash the smell off him
Once we have a finalized map, at the very least mods will add the pygmies and ind.
Seems a bit silly to have Archaen run around when there's literal demons of their own factions streaming out of the Warp
Probably Lokhir, Gelt, Settra, or Sigvald. I'm really iffy on touching the new factions until they get some DLC because they look pretty barebones. Maybe I'll do a test run with Zhao Ming and Kostaltyn
/vg/ did a poll.
http://poal.me/2335xc
There's only one correct answer
Oh mannlets…
When will they learn?
Chorfs and HobGobs all but confirmed by placement of playables
>and HobGobs
Would they be their own race? I played a chorf mod and hobgoblins were basically just like the t1 orc goblin units
>I played a chorf mod
And we should care, because?
Could be either. Ive seen armies of just hobgobs & men, sort of a huns/mongols thing, with Chorfs having hobbos, but as slaves. Idk, im just suspecting 2 DLC races and Chorf is a sure thing. Dogs of war, hobbos are both plausible, nippon's out the window based on the map unless they expand
>nippon's out the window based on the map unless they expand
Wouldn't be the first time
Where else have they expanded the map in WH2 compared to the Mortal Empires announcement?
Maybe if they go the route of Grom where you buff the frick out of the weak units. I simply don't know enough about them, a hob goblin LL probably wouldn't be allowed to use any chorf units, right? Since gobbos are just the slaves
>Where else have they expanded the map in WH2 compared to the Mortal Empires announcement?
Are you serious?
darklands in weeb skaven gay elf update
>Where else have they expanded the map in WH2 compared to the Mortal Empires announcement?
If I recall, they expanded the area around where Malus and Snikch start when they were released. I don't recall if the Tomb King desert was fully implemented before their DLC, but I think it was
Didn't know the kiddy pool didn't exist before Sniktch
>I don't recall if the Tomb King desert was fully implemented before their DLC
Either way, that's a way larger feature in Vortex
I suppose they could add a small Ind in IE and a big one in Chaos Realms but I doubt it
PRINCE AND EMPEROR
>Emperor Karl "I must let my servants die right in front of me without helping them because that's the only way to get filled by big daddy sigmar's jizz" Franz
nah, he's a gay
I just cant play as the evil races so this is conflicting for me.
I only play as the empire, dwarves, high elves, wood elves, lizardmen and i'm yet to play as kislev
Everytime I want to try something different I just can't do it I can't be the villains of the piece
Sounds like you should play Nurgle then
>I just love eating people! yum yum, their screams make me so happy!
yeah, real great guy
He loves them anon.
You're thinking of Ogres, Nurgle loves you and just wants what's best for you
>open window
>look outside
>see these guys come rampaging towards you
>return to your breakfast table, unperturbed
>read in your Daily Altdorf that they're actually your friends and love you
>your entire family already died of the plague
>attempt to finish your coffee as the entire building you're in collapses around you
both of these are evil as they are dead or ugly
True beauty is the creating and sharing of life, anon
Let Nurgle guide you
visually ugly things and people are bad and should be destroyed
Beauty is skin deep, embrace the Plague Lord and be happy
Just means you get to meet Grandfather early, rejoice!
I mean, Khalida is pretty hot.
t. chud
That's just not true.
Correct
Tomb Kings can be evil like Arkhan but Nurgle is always good
the presents are all plagues aren't they
Maybe
Tomb Kings are not evil. They are just conservative.
They're undead which means they're immune to disease, which is pretty selfish of them
Parasites need to live too you know
I'm out of Nurgle pictures now
Play Tomb Kings. They just want people to get off their lawn.
i can only play as the evil guys. itst fun for me to ruin everything.
I can just about manage to play as the orks because they feel naughty not evil and I think I feel the same way about the ogres too (I tried taurox and that was fun too but they sort of feel like humans a bit so its ok) but the rest of them can all FRICK off
No orks in fantasy
You're a moronic Black person.
No wait, a moronic double Black person.
see
Legend of Total War here
Helman Ghorst. I'll flood Cathay with zombies and Necromancers
I never got around to finishing even a single campaign near release, so I'll probably do Miao Ying. Then I'll play Vlad.
Rat squad
BORN TO DIE-DIE
>Rat squad
Where other three?
Asur dicky

Eltharion. Hopefully his starting position isn't shit, for once.

>who will you play first?
I HATE SNOW
>I hear *snickers* Malekith HATES the snow! Bwahahahahahahaha!
I fricking love Tzeentch so much. Those chicken fetuses are a riot.
AZHAG IS 'ERE
I just want a Neferata LL.
Sexy Egyptian vampire is the best shit on the planet.
I just don't know if she will be a Tomb King or a Vampire Count.
Neferata is in the Nagash mod and she's overtuned as frick, massively powerful. Also even if we did get Neferata way down the line as official DLC she won't look like that, she'd look like she did in 8th.
She, Nagash and Arkhan should have their own sub faction. Also Nagash should start as humble freshly raised skeleton with a mission to restore his greatness otherwise we may get another Ariel and that is a bad thing
EVERQUEEEEN OF THE ASRAIIIIII
What's the issue with Ariel?
Nothing, she's perfect just the way she is.
Ariel should have been a Lord choice but they wanted her as a Hero so she could be in the same army as Orion even though Orion is a shit lord that no one plays
They should have given them the treatment Vlad/Isabella are getting
Maybe one day, but I don't think it'll happen
god i hope the new map really is as colorful as in the trailer. it looked gorgeous
>40k player watching all of this attention going to fantasy
bros i just want a good 40k strategy game again
>good game
>tw3
Dude 40k is so much more popular that they killed fantasy and tried to turn it into 40k too, you have nothing to complain about
blame relic for shitting the bed
You are about to get a fun looking cRPG, stop complaining. While WHF fans have been begging for a cRPG since forever.
are you joking? even tho 40k games are shit nowadays the games that have already been made before DoW 3 and before GW started giving the IP to pretty much everybody who wanted to make a game about it are much, much better than anything fantasy ever got, fantasy was pretty much forgotten in the game industry until TWH while 40k has had gems like DoW 1/2 and even earlier games from all sorts of genres, the fact that GW made new lore/units/Factions and such for WH3 AFTER cannonically finishing the entire setting years ago already tells just how impactful TWH was for fantasy
I will always maintain the opinion that Gladius is a good game worth your time.
I only play dwarf.
I will be playing Karl Franz and I will be opening a word document to write thousands of words of LARP and roleplay to immerse myself and I will unify the realm of man and then eventually allow the Chaos invasion to skullfrick most of the world including the Empire staging a deliberately important key battle in Reikland with the best and brightest of the Empire who still survive
I will be using novelAI to write up my fanfiction instead, I did the same with game 2 and beastmen year ago and it was seriously fun
I love it. My last Warhammer 2 game with Empire was divided into chapters based around key events or wars or battles that I'd describe like an old imperial scribe.
how long will it be a broken unplayable clusterfrick? 2 months? 4?
gonna wait for chorfs it should be fixed by then
Does it run like shit just like WH2?
It runs way worse than 2
Frick that then. I have a 3600 and 2070 Super and 2 runs like shit.
Huh, I have 2060 Ti and WH2 runs fine. By "fine" I mean 65-75 FPS on Ultra. WH3 on the other hand barely can keep 50 FPS on Medium-High.
For no goddamn reason, mind you. Because those miniscule graphical improvements (you can even argue if the game really does look better than WH2) do not explain such a gigantic performance drop.
Yeah, it's pretty bizarre. Battles in 2 I can run at 60-80fps on a mix of mostly high and ultra settings. Looks good, runs decently. In 3 I have to turn everything down to at least medium or I can't hit 60 at all once spells start flying. And the campaign map runs like absolute ass regardless of settings.
>outing yourself as poorgay
Lol!
I see no reason to buy 3080 Ti for a game that should comfortably run on much, much lower specs, just because some Britbong did a shoddy optimization work.
BEASTMEN RARROOO ME PEEPEEPOOOPOOO ON YUOOOOO
Is there a full list of the factions/lords or do I need to watch the fricking video to see who I can play on release?
You can play anyone you own
Every single faction you could play in 1/2/3 is available to play. Any ones you couldn't due to not owning DLC are not.
c-can I play a Strigoi lord yet? Ushuran will rise again!
Shut UP you ugly FAILURE.
STRIGOI
GHOUL KING
The same I play in every campaign
I want a new Vampire Count lord. Give me some classic Gothic kino, none of this Egyptian and Pirate stuff.
What the frick is wrong with the von Carsteins?
You WILL get your Egyptian Mommy b***h and you WILL be happy
Red Duke might be coming as FLC
Neferata's faction was patched in late in the life cycle of warhammer 2 with the Lahmian Sisterhood
That's 2 lords that could come.
I didn't buy Total War: Warhammer II until the very last DLC was released. Why the frick would I buy Warhammer III any sooner in its life?
>Chaos get to control towns
So how does humans and demons live in the same town?
Very carefully
>luv me orgies
>ate high taxes
>simple as
I dunno, ask america
Chaos worshippers move in I suppose, there's always going to be hangers on that can't fight but build the edifices to the chaos gods and the like
It depends on a daemon.
Slaanesh - they get along. Tentacles might be involved.
Nurgle - they get along. Hugs might be involved.
Tzeentch - I guess nobody really understands how it works.
Khorne - humans and live very briefly, but it's the thought that counts.
I wish I knew how to play Tomb Kings well. Or Vampire Counts for that matter.
Tomb Kang are easy
>sit around for 100 turns waiting for town growth
>kill everyone with big constructs
At the start you can just make a line of skellymen with your Ushabti behind it and then walk them forward when the skellies are engaged. Ushabti are monstrous size so they can just walk into small units, and all the skellies will stop them from taking hits
vampire coast and sail around the world
>Unit upgrade system
Will this let me use regular foot soldiers all the time instead of having the best units 24/7? Were other TW games like this?
I'm going to kick the lying, oathbreaking, lanky, knife-eared Wazzok right in dongliz.

the game is and will be completely inferior to Warhammer 2 for at least 3-4 years more,also looks like a fricking moba.
I'm going to play the uninstall button
Daemons undivided
Kislev or high elf prostitute
I love fighting chaos and pretty mad that empire didn't got nordland start
>Chorfs: Confirmed
>Nagash: Confirmed
>Southern Realms / Dogs of War: Possible
>Ind / Khuresh: Maybe in 5 years
>Nippon: Never
>Fishmen: If we're lucky
>Pygmies: Only if God wills it
The Red Duke???
Chink vampires will get in before the Red Duke or Neferata become playable
Mark my fricking words
Wasn't there a leak for him having a character intro similar to other Lords.
Wasn't sure if maybe it was a leaked reveal thing or a test towards playable minor factions.
If I remember correctly it was just the Red Duke's model on someone else's intro.
Well that sucks.
At least they've finally fricking confirmed Blood now.
Yeah, I just double checked and it was just the Red Duke in Lokhir's intro
Gonna play as Archaon first to experience the most 'vanilla' version of the Warriors of Chaos rework. The fact they fixed his head to stop it clipping through his shoulders is a bonus.
Do we have full details on the rework yet?
Yes.
>Warriors are no longer a horde faction
>Certain settlements are "Chaos Fortresses" which give more building slots, these include enemy faction capitals
>controlling a Chaos Fortress lets you vassalize Norsca factions automatically, you can give settlements to your vassals instead of conquering them yourself
>Warriors now recruit through a Warband system, are only able to recruit basic marauders at first but can upgrade them into stronger units as they gain more experience, i.e. upgrade Marauders into Horsemen, and then into Chaos Knights
>can also dedicate units to specific gods which gives them different stat lines, i.e. upgrade Marauders into Chaos Warriors of Tzeentch, and then into Chosen of Tzeentch
>can use a "Souls" currency to gain Gifts of Chaos, which can buff units, let you recruit daemons, and other such things
>Kholek and Sigvald now have their own factions separate from Archaon
I might be missing some details but this is the meat of it.
>tfw the Skaven Last Supper is my login wallpaper and the Assassination of Warboss Lincoln is my regular one

I need to read more Gotrek and Felix. Those compilation books are dense.
I hope this guy updates his map with the new stuff.

Looks like he will when all the DLC is out.

Will Immortal Empires be a paid DLC? IIRC Mortal Empires was.
you need all three games to play it
No, it's free and you can play it without the other two games. But the races from WH1&2 won't be playable until you buy the games they're from.
No, you need all the games to access the campaign. Unless you're playing multiplayer, in which case only the host needs to own them all
Mortal Empires was free, you just needed TWW1 and TWW2, in this you will need all three games.
>IIRC Mortal Empires was.
It never was you brainlet
Can't wait to buy the WH3 Wood Elf DLC in 3 years that upgrades the WH2 Wood Elf DLC I got to upgrade the WH1 Wood Elf DLC!
You get the updates regardless, just not the new content itself. You also don't need to by Warhammer 1's Wood Elf DLC to buy and play the Sisters of Twilight in 2
Customizable LLs when?
I just want to create my own elven waifu.
Warriors of Chaos actually amazing now lel
playing the empire is a meme right? you are not playing the boring humans in a game with demons, elves, undead, lizarmen, etc
>you are not playing the boring humans in a game with demons, elves, undead, lizarmen, etc
What in the Lady's name hath thou just sayeth about me, knave? I'll have you know I was the best grail knight in sir Cholfric's the Blessed banner, and I've been involved in numerous errantry wars against Nehekhara, and I have over 3000 confirmed kills. I am trained in chivalry warfare and I'm the top jouster in the entire dukedom of Bordelaux. Thou art naught to me but just another practice quintain. I will wipe thee out with holy wrath the likes of which has never been seen before in the Old World or beyond, mark my righteous vow. Thou think you can get away with thine slander? Think again, rapscallion. As we speak I am gathering my vassals all across the Dukedom and your craven dwelling is scouted by my mounted yeomen so you better prepare for war, brigand. The war that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. Thou shalt pay priests of Morr for your time is counted. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my lance. Not only am I extensively trained in personal combat, but all knights across the Dukedom heed my call and I will lead them in a glorious charge to wipe thy miserable derrière off the face of the Bretonnia, you scoundrel. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your snide "book learned" remark was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your lying tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you honourless coward. I will bring down fury of Manann upon thee, and you will drown in it.
Isn't Alberic is more devoted to Mannan than to the Lady?
i see the game is finally coming out of early access, how did it feel paying to beta test Ganker?
we need a new roulette to roll for new campaigns
The obese guy. Going to try to create some skullet/handle bar mustache looking ogre dude. Then I’m going to eat BBQ or salt and vinegar lays potato chips with one hand and collecting boss loot from drops while not contributing to the team at all. Just shadowing the guys doing all the work while enjoying savory, fried potato crisps.
>Meanwhile in the Southlands, starting as Settra against Volkmar, Repanse, Mannfred, Skarsbrand and Queek.
The Southlands Slaughterhouse will be fun
Don't know whether I want to enact the Oldest Grudge or go fricking absolute ham as Skarbrand.
Killing my way through the Bowl and then sailing to Ulthuan seems like it could be really fun.
Don’t forget Wurzag.
He’ll be an absolute nightmare for Skarbrand if he isn’t taken out before he gets armywide magical attacks
I'm going to cross the river as Skrag and eat his ass.
Bit gay, lad
Thats the joke.
Not gonna lie though taking the Ogres into the thunderbowl seems like mad fun
I won't, I have better games to play.
>who will you play
WHO ELSE BUT THE EVERCHAD, LORD OF THE END TIMES
his new animations look amazing. i fricking hate giving props to ca since they are a bunch of israelites that butchered WH3 but they actually looks like chaos may actually be fun to play
Cathay, of course.
holy shit we have endgame crisis, WE STELLARIS NOW
>a grudge too far
are you ready to get invaded by the stunties?
>a grudge too far
So just a normal ME campaign then?
Are these some big map events?
new endgame crisis'es since WH3 made Chaos endtimes a little odd since all the baddies are in from the beginning.
endgame scenarios, looks like they will be invasions like the chaos invasions used to be, i just hope its not just
>suddenly spawn 20 armies of race x on top of the player settlements
spawn 20 armies of race x on top of the player settlements
Did they hire the DAC modders?
What's DAC?
Divide and Conquer. A submod for a mod for the best TW game.
Other than the Blue Wizards and the stack that spawns the first time you take a faction capital, I don't really remember much about stacks suddenly spawning without warning
But I should add that I haven't played all that many factions however, so there could be a bunch of bullshit I don't know about
I may be misremembering, but there are scripts that similate garrisons by spawning in stacks when you attack certain settlements
Ohhh, that's if you or the AI have an armory built in the settlement. But I do have a memory of certain AI controlled settlements having a bigger garrison than you could ever get
They'd be really stupid to not have Dawi pouring out of every unmolested Karak or having the Wild Hunt all start at the Oak and then fan out in all directions constantly. These endgame scenarios need flavor too.
thats what im hoping for too
If they're implemented well, that's really cool. Adding more easy replayability through customization. Different NPC factions can probably get screwed over or take advantage of those events better than others which will lead to more varied outcomes for late game.
This, every campaign I've played in the past few months ends with NPC dawi tide. Greenskins? Crushed. Skaven? Eradicated. Chaos? Annihilated.
for me its usually AI grimgor/eshin/squeek killing the dwarves and taking over half the map
>implying a grudge can go to far
That’s going in the book
So, they have removed the Chaos Invasion and replaced it with something else?
Cool, I guess, although I still would've liked Chaos to be a endgame baddie.
They probably still are
Chaos dwarves.
Vlad and Isabella von Carstein.Who do you think would be easier to play as the main legendary Ward with the other one as the hero?
I think Isabella has the better faction effects.
Does anyone else want Belegar Ironhammer wife to be a legendary hero ?
Vlad maybe, though I am kind of tired of the VCounts roster. Lokhir or Repanse also.
Until they optimize the performance - CA can frick off. not burning my GPU for this shit.
kek just wait two years like you had to for the other games where your turn length isn't 45 minutes
Good thing they're diverse and inclusive though
This game doesn't fit on my ssd. If I install it on my hard drive I'm never gonna leave the load screen.
Noctilus
Whichever one is the farthest left on the selection menu
>not cracked
I sleep
Probably Arkhan the Black.
The uninstall wizard
The only correct answer
So the Empire has a pretty comfy place now right?
Outside of Norsca and Vlad there aren't many really big threats, feels like the only way to expand as Karl would require beating the shit out of Brettonia or Kislev.
dont you have drycha/orcs/VC eating your elector counts and tanking your Authority anymore?
Orcs and Mannfred fricked off
Who is that by Hochland?
The new Nurgle guy I think
what's he doing there? Is Hochland filled with more Chaos followers than the other empire provinces?
Since when does CA need a reason to put their LLs in places?
He starts in Brass Keep, an abandoned fortress full of Warriors of Chaos.
Festus, the new semi Nurgle LL was previously famous physician and doctor in the Empire. He has several clinics, hospitals, sanatoriums funded by him pre downfall to chaos in Hochland and Nordland, + Brass Keep was taken by Nurgle forces in the End Times . Festus himself even has base of operations in the sewers of Altdorf, so him being in the Empire makes sense
Wasn't he the guy who just wanted to save people from a Nurgle plague and he accepted a pact with Chaos which instantly mindbroke him? Frick Chaos
Yes, plague wasn't necessary by Nurgle, but Nurgle kinda promised him a knowledge to deal with any plague, infection, etc in the return of eternal servitude. He was desperate and thought it was coming from Shallya so he accepted and got detailed information about every virus or disease in existence known to Nurgle in his head,
Poor guy is sandwiched between Kislev and Empire. Will it be possible to form a (temporary)alliance with ratgays and beastBlack folk?
BeastBlack folk easy, in fact every faction of WoC can vassalize even orcs now ( probably any faction not belonging to a good side - tomb kangz )
Some Chaos jogger, green probably means Nurgle
Did they make Tzeentch's Doom Knights not look like shit
Yes.
>Warriors of Chaos now has the Thrones of Britannia unit recruitment system
Lizardmen fricking need this its literally the most lore accurate way for them to get new units.
>Thrones of Britannia unit recruitment system
What's that, precious?
>there are people in this thread, right now, who bought tww3, saw that they were stupid enough to think mortal empires was a side-thought to most fans, and didn't immediately refund it
lol
i refunded because of the horrible performance
POV:Nurgle vs Vampire Coasts
>POV
Go back
From my point of view the Jedi are evil
Slaanesh because I haven't played TWW3 yet, I like fast flanking factions, and I'm a degenerate.
