Kestral posted:Death Hags - when? Why? Chaos Spawn do extremely high weapon damage per hit(110!, with a whopping 40 AP) and Death Hags are squishy as gently caress, so this isn't really surprising. Chaos Spawn can actually kick the poo poo out of most combat heroes.

The cauldron I believe gives a 12% physical resist aura on top of targeted buffs, use it to bolster your front line.

Gitro posted:I've had ranged units decide they need to walk all the way up to the walls without firing when giving them a direct order, but about 90% of the time it works fine whether it's fire at will or targeted. Guard mode might help? Normally I just re-position when it happens and they start working again. After you beat the ritual stacks you can go back to attacking, you know? In fact you can even attack with some stacks and defend with others? There’s no reason to sit around for 8 turns unless you want to.

Vargs posted:I've had better luck with the intervention spawns than the chaos ones. Intervention armies seem to at least always show up next to the ritual sites, and will generally go for them unless they're being sieged already. Chaos stacks? Yeah, don't worry about it, we'll spawn those ages away from the ritual sites so you have plenty of time to prepare. How about right in the middle of your empire where they can 1-turn raze your non-target cities with zero opposition? That seems like a good spot. Have 6 of them. This actually owns as Skaven (and only Skaven) because you can move all your armies to the spawn zone and use stalk stance to ambush half of them before they take their first turn and ambush-stance ambush the other half as they take their first turn. Fun for the whole family. Also does everybody know that the Chaos stacks spawn when you start the ritual during your turn so you can position armies accordingly and/or attack them on turn zero? A lot of the complaints feel like they don't know this. New Butt Order fucked around with this message at 10:35 on Oct 23, 2017 |

Going tall's really boring though because you don't have the currency income to make the vortex campaign anything other than a tedious slog. I did that for my Queek campaign and it just dragged things on for so much longer than my Kroq-gar conquering funtime.

There’s no reason to sit around for 8 turns unless you want to. I could, but i didn't know if the AI was going to send other intervention stacks or like actual invasion stacks and ruin my day. Also if I want to cruise around breaking things I can do that instead. From how the game presented it I thought alright, gonna have to knuckle down and focus on defensive play and all that, and it wasn't that at all, so I got disappointed and bored and don't see the point in bothering again unless I want a quick cash infusion and don't mind hanging around my capital for a few turns.

Pierson posted:Man besides being better in general is Warhammer 2 also better optimised than TW1? I jumped back down to try out the Wood Elves but I can feel my system dragging with more or less the same graphics settings. It might be just the trees/shadows though, those guys' maps have a lot of trees. I dunno, I get really bad framerates on the campaign map in WH2, as apparently a lot of other people do, while it's fine in battle and in WH1.

I've been playing a lot more WH1 recently and it's just as fine as in WH2. I didn't notice any degradation when avenging Eight Peaks' grudges, nor improvement when I went back for a bit of HE shooty action. I play in DX11 though, and don't waste my time with DX12 nonsense so maybe that has an effect?

DX12 was crashing my game a whole bunch after one of the late WH1 patches, I'd suggest not using that for now. I'm using a 970 FWIW.

Some early access Mortal Empires videos up PartyElite going over factions new start positions/win conditions https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TNU75e2alLc Also, not only will Norsca be unavailable in Mortal Empires, the entire patch that came with them won't, and neither will the new Regiments of Renown. Bit of an awkward mess, feels like the ULTIMATE CAMPAIGN MAP EDITION is a bit hamstrung without that stuff, but whatever. blindwoozie fucked around with this message at 15:59 on Oct 23, 2017 |

StashAugustine posted:those victory conditions look like poo poo It's pretty much "take over the world" for most factions, except oddly enough for Brettonians, Wood Elves, Chaos, and Beastmen who all have almost exactly their old victory conditions only. Mind you, that's only for the long victory which I've yet to bother with in Warhammer for any faction except the above. Also, if we're not getting the new regiments, does that mean the skill tree updates for old lords aren't in yet either? (just checked a video and confirmed no foundation update, bleh.) Was kinda planning to finish up with the vortex before really jumping into Mortal Empires, might actually hold off on switching until everything gets added at this point. madmac fucked around with this message at 16:18 on Oct 23, 2017 |

I'm surprised that they added a fair amount of new buildings to the old world factions. Saw that Wood elves get 2-3 new ones, and Empire looks like it has roads and a lot of new landmarks. I'm sure the others have been changed similarly Midnightghoul fucked around with this message at 16:26 on Oct 23, 2017 |

Does anyone have any favorite "small touches" in the game? I really love a lot of the little details. One that I have really enjoyed is when the Dark Elves win a battle and there's this building vocalization in the music that sounds like a cross between a chorus and a crowd chant at a game. Then it just cuts off. It....feels like something horrible is about to happen.

Not sure why everyone's so worked up about the victory conditions, they apply to military allies too so as Empire you'll just have to ally with the elves rather than invade Lothern, that kind of thing. Seems fine to me really.
