I love joy, Total War was joy, until it was infected with soihammer which both takes up the majority of CA's development time now, and introduces shitty mechanics into historical TW games.

It's not about not liking something, I'm entirely neutral about the warhammer universe, it's about an amazing franchised being poisoned by demanding fanboys who are completely sucking it dry.

First thing that came up on grogle, hasn't been updated since february tho

This is Total War is an achievement where you declare war on every single faction from turn 1, never make peace and declare war on every single faction the turn you discover them. No peace, with anyone, ever, even for a single turn or you don't get the achievement.

Just play another race silly

Nice try fag, but GW knows it's fan base and hasn't catered to the left at all. Maybe if we get female space marines you can try the bait again.

if you have to get one, get the first one since it stands better on its own

First one is a better introduction and has a better stand-alone campaign.

That's just a souless attempt to expand their base and get kids hooked early, though it was funny watching pol spaz about that one ad with the white girl and black kid rolling dice. You guys see BLACKED and cucks in everything.

Even if GW goes sjw, most people pick and choose what to care about in their universes anyways, hence why TWW doesn't take place in age of smegma

It's so surreal to see them like this instead on their floaty palanquins.

Play the first one, choose a race that interest you and finish the campaign. Did you like it? Try the other races/factions until you get bored of them. Want more? Check out the DLC and when you're done try out the second game.

Get the 1st game. Unless of-course you enjoy 10 minute turn times and alt tabbing instead of actually playing a fucking game, then get the 2nd game.

Help me get good in this game, beast nomads always wreck my shit

i guess the number one newbie mistake i see is beelining for massed expensive upgraded units before their economy is ready for them. dont underestimate "trash" units, factions like vampire counts for instance is all about mass trash units with a small number of specialized units to actually get shit done, most factions in the game has this mentality to some degree

I started playing with the tabletop-style unit cap mod and it's great, it stops you from being able to spam armies of deathstar units and (mostly) stops the AI from memestacking by limiting the number of specialist/elite units you can have in a stack.

Skaven weapons teams are still unlimited because they're an upgrade for Clanrats in the WHFB rules.

The hunter and the beast has caused the best hype for me since wh2 release. Can't wait to get that sweet war wagons kiting around killing dark elfniggers in the multiplayer.

How the fuck do I get to recruit Boris todbringer in my play through? I dont own the beastmen dlc so is it even possible to do it ?

Confederate Middenland while the AI has Boris recruited and you'll get control of him like any other normal living lord. Not sure if mods or the DLC are needed to get him if he's dead at the time, though.

I havent played 3 chinkdoms and never fucking will

>Still SEETHING about Warhammer Total War
kek

How does the 3 chinks game compare to Shogun 2? I played Rome 2 for a bit, and had some fun with it, but my favorite TW will always be Shogun 2. It has a level of polish and replay ability that no other has, even if the unit selection is very limited. I rather have a more limited game that is ell balanced and polished, than a huge game that is all over the place like Rome 2.

it's barely even a TW game

its nothing like shogun 2 at all, no agents, almost no unit diversity, sieges are boring, no interesting events like black ship, no naval battles at all (which most people like i guess)

just replay shogun 2

Soihammer is the ultimate soi. Soibois who consume soihammer are the ultimate soibois.

The newer historical games tend to lack a lot of the character that made the older ones great.

Fantasy at least has a metric ton of fucking testosterone.

>total war
the bad choice

I feel like playing Napoleon again. Which country should I play? With Darthmod of course.

greece

>no naval battles at all (which most people like i guess)

I think the problem with naval combat is the time periods the games have chosen since Empire rather than the naval combat itself. It's fun when the ships are armed with cannon because it's all about outmanoeuvring the other fleet so you can shoot them while they can't shoot you back very well, but before guns it's just a massive clusterfuck of ramming and boarding actions.

ssd dosent affect turn times, only load times.

The problem is of how the game was designed, there is a shitton of bloat unplayable factions, and the longer the game goes on, the longer the turns take. If you are running on an older pc dont even bother. As seen here and on the CA forums, i think they shit the bed and forgot most people arent playng on 50k dollars rigs, if the images are legit and they are adding this much stuff, the game is gonna be unplayable. Right now, endgame turn times can take about 5-6min and you will be bored out of your mind, not to mention the constant ctd because the game designed pathing poorly so your RAM starts melting when the ai cant decide here to go.

How do I start playing Total War games Yea Forumsros??

Thats a shame. I guess I will just re conquer Japan once again. Maybe try some mods.

pick the one you like and play

I hate how useless gunpowder units are in warhammer tw. Since they cant shoot in an arc theyre almost impossible to position effectively without killing your own troops.

Gunpowder outright deletes any big units, they're excellent.

Start by deciding if you want history or fantasy.

The real problem with TW is that fantasy is way more fun. Shogun2/FotS were good, and so was ME2, but the rest is boring as fuck compared to the Total War jewry.

You're actually just bad at managing them. Its ok, I was too when I started.

seriously try playing Bretonnia and tell me they're viable

Didn't the Warhammer Fantasy universe blow up?

not canon fuck off games workshop

wait, what?

Looking at this makes it even more obvious CA will add Cathay and Ind, half the interesting areas on that map are present in WH1+2 so they wont be in WH3 campaign

Are you aware that your graphic shows double the numbers for the shooty side? Add more melee to the other side and they would win easy since melee > ranged

its just an example anyway but saying that gunpowder units in twwh are useless is fucking stupid

Thin out your lines dummy. It's a doodle meant to illustrate a point, not be an exact representation. If you can't apply what's in the picture to a total war fight, you might just be retarded

I really love Warhammer, but I can't play these Total War games for shit. I hate the Civ aspect, and I half-like the RTS gameplay. I love smashing my guys into other guys.

Attached: warham.jpg (1919x607, 1017K)

Gunpowder units are fucking awesome, it's just you can't right click on the enemy and forget about them like you can with archers, you have to put some thought into it. This is from reddit but it's good advice so here it is anyway. They're certainly harder to use but the rewards are immense. You can instantly delete high value targets before they even get to the frontlines with focus fire, you lock out flying units altogether (unless it's a silly AI stack with eight units of bats or something), and if you can take a flank with them or find an uninterrupted firing line then whatever you're shooting at will rout in seconds. It feels fantastic.

Attached: uRh1OA0.png (1266x8000, 628K)

Its a long story, but basically Game Workshop, company that owns warhammer and 40k) nuked the whole setting because of poor sales on tabletop instead of fixing the mess that was 8th edition and replacing it with Age of Sigmar

But why?

histcucks have tried to pretend that 3 chinks is a "history" game because at least it isn't warhammer but now that the first dlc came out for it and it was another shitty campaign while warhammer gets an awesome new dlc has caused them to start seething again.

>denuvo still in killing load times and maybe part of the reason turns take ten minutes

Copyright jewing. They can't copyright such generic fantasy factions as Lizardmen, Dark Elves and Dwarfs, but they certainly can copyright Seraphim, Darkling Covens and Duardin even if they're just exactly the same thing with a different name. No, I'm serious, this is one of the big reasons.

I play them all the time in quickbattles.
They aren't great, but thats mostly because shit like skaven and undead exist.

I wonder if CA will take the obvious route for the fantasy games after TWW3 and go into 40k. It would potentially be a big shakeup for the series but also a big cashcow if they could get it to work.

I doubt denuvo is doing that much compared to all the shit that's on the mortal empires map.

But they literally did. They just changed the name from Lizardmen to Seraphon.

The End Times had to happen, because nobody was actually buying the models. Sad, but true.

Westeros warfare is boring as shit and Total War doesn't have the diplomacy systems required to actually highlight the politicking.

Eh, maybe, but I'm not really seeing it.

I dunno, 3k made some headway into a political intrigue done better. Not perfect, but it's a good first step compared to prior titles

What factions are missing from TW?

Attached: 1567171666065.jpg (593x586, 38K)

Reminder that the Lizardmen are so pathetic they needed an actual, literal god to come down and help them drive out one (1) single Skaven clan and didn't even wipe them out, they just came back later and the lizardcucks couldn't get rid of them again.

why not?

What, Warhammer? As far as "big" factions go, Ogre Kingdoms, Chaos Dwarfs, Daemons of Chaos are the only ones left. There's still a lot of less prominent stuff like Kislev they could still do if they want.

>said god didn't show up until after Based Tehenhuan already kicked them
Dumb rat

>Ogres
>Daemon only
Honestly, unless the last TW game has rotbringers, etc. completely devoted to Chaos, I'd prefer an Age of Sigmar TW.

What history? All you'll have is the word of the Prophet, inshallah.

>why can't I just ctrl+A and right click?

bro you weren't supposed to mention that...

Second one then use creamapi so you don't have to pay for DLC or the first game

The way I heard it, there was more to do with rules getting very bloated, updates and erratas coming once a year despite living in the age of the internet, and asking money for basic rules.
How true is that?

i heard the diplomacy aspect is good

play a Horde Faction, or Lizardmen

You are in luck because devs already said they will stay away from CIV like gameplay and focused on battle map stuff. The weakest aspect of this TW and arguably all total wars on the series is the lack of grand strategy elements, if only they add stuff on the world map like managing supply lines or using actual terrain to plan ambush, instead we have a tug-o-war between major settlements where your only "strategy" is either attack or retreat.
