The key to landing bombard Ken is to target missile troops currently firing, or engaged melee units. Neither of these will dodge attacks like that.

Scrub-Niggurath posted:If you want a low impact mod for black arks I’d recommend Gejnor’s Sa’an’ishar mod, it vastly reduces the upkeep of Black ark troops, so you aren’t wasting a stack’s worth of upkeep on it, and gives nearby armies immunity to attrition on the ocean (reefs, storms, etc.) This mod's pretty good, yeah. If there's somehow a way to get the ability to only sack/raze coastal settlements this mod would be great.

ZearothK posted:Greenside: Totally not a Wood Elf Queen Basically correct. Alarielle:  The current Everqueen, a title that used to be the true ruler of all elves, lasting millenia of peaceful rule before Aenarion created the Pheonix King title as a response to the first Daemon invasions when everyone thought they had killed the Everqueen. She is an embodiment of Isha, and nature is at her beck and call, her ruling grounds of Gaean Vale are known to be a mystical place only matched by Athel Loren in raw natural magic and power. Except to see her get some sort of tree-units from the wood elf roster. Hellebron:  Aptly nicknamed the Crone, she is also known as the Blood Queen for she is the reason Witch Elves exist at all, having created them slightly prior to the split between the elves back in the old world colonies. She looks like this most of the time because she was denied access to the cauldron of blood by Morathi herself, who hates her. The hatred goes both ways and Hellebron considers Morathi her biggest rival. I say most of the time because she regains her youthly vigour and looks once a year, making her temporarily more powerful for a while by performing blood rituals. I'm not sure if CA will make use of this, it could be kind of cool if they work it out well. Alith Anar:  The last loyal Naggarothi line on Ulthuan, Alith Anar paid a heavy price with the slaughter of his whole family at the hands of the Druchii. As the lone survivor, he swore and oath of vengeance and took up the mantle of the Shadow King. Ever since those days, he and his kin has hunted Druchii with a cunning and ferocity that makes other elves feel squeamish to the core. This is because Alith is utterly ruthless against the Druchii, outdoing them in cruelty and barbarism when it needs doing. It is said that even the blackened souls that constitutes the druchii are secretly terrified of this utter madman who seems to appear out of nowhere and leaves no traces, unless of course he wants to. Currently in the lore it is not known if he is alive or if it is his heirs that has taken up his mantle but apparently citing the end times it turns out he was alive all along so thats no barrier at all in my opinion. The seeming leak we had with shadow warriors coming hints strongly towards us getting the Shadow King as well, if not in this DLC then in a FLC somewhere down the line.

Senor Dog posted:So we're going to get a million elves huh great guess wh3 won't be the least interesting one after all They already added a skaven flc lord, and are likely to be releasing a lizardmen lord in the patch, so elves and dark elves was a safe bet for the next DLC from the start. If you don't like playing elves, just wait for them to add the rats vs lizards DLC, or the race packs they seem to be planning.

Gejnor posted:Queen and the Crone basically confirmed but heres a nice potential spot from reddit: I think Alith Anar's chances are pretty good, that FLC HE LL got blatantly yanked from the array right after Tomb Kings, and the free Dark Elf Lord isn't visible anymore either. It's a lot more believable he just got dropped into the DLC pack that has his associated units than a fairly easy to make LL getting randomly rescheduled to 6-8 months out .

The Free Dark Elf Lord I am betting will be Lokhir Fellheart the Kraken Lord.

The elf factions are honestly more interesting than the skaven and lizards. Like at least the characters have themes instead of x’irrrurrrp’burrrr’pwskitchieeeeeet we are so wacky and have guns and dinosaurs.

If that's the complete list, it's honestly the worst Lord Pack they've ever put out. One quest item for each Lord, only 2 mod-tier units per faction, only one new generic lord between the two factions, just wow that's bad. And coming out on the 31st by the looks of it, because they need an extra week to hype up the longest wait for the least content in any Lord Pack yet. It also makes me think they want to put out two lord packs per race instead of one, which is...dammit CA.

Over half the RoR's are missing so there might be missing units as well. I'm not counting on it though. Maybe there will be some free non-dlc units added?

This is a pretty good lord pack in mine. Better then the Grim and Grave I say.

MonsterEnvy posted:Your bad opinions continue. This is a pretty good lord pack in mine. Compared to the Grim and the Grave it has fewer, substantially lower effort new units, less ROR, less quest items/quest battles, and worse generic lords. In it's favor the two LL look very neat and probably a lot of fun to play. On balance it still has less content than Grim and the Grave and a lot less content than King and the Warlord, which is an awful thing to say considering CA was on a hot streak with each new DLC being better than the last until now. I'll also bet you 10 internet cookies right now that part of the reason it's cut back on units is because they plan to put out another Lord Pack later and they gotta stretch that content. This is literally the first Warhammer DLC that is making me reconsider pre-ordering.

Oh wait didn't Allarielle get kidnapped in the End Times and sacrificed to restore Nagash except she's actually a fake queen so Nagash wasn't powered up by her royal blood but instead cursed by it or something

I know you mean reconsider preordering this DLC, but still for a second I thought you wanted a refund for the base game because of the dlc.

Which hosed him up via the curse of Aenerion. Which is more knowledge about the end times than I ever want to admit to actually having.

Honestly, I can't even be bothered to refund games. If I make a poor choice, that's on me. Same with this DLC really, I don't care about the money in the least, I just don't want to reward CA for putting out a minimal effort DLC. Maybe there's more to it when the official announcement comes out tomorrow, I seriously doubt it, but we'll see.

By the way who is that very ugly boy in the first picture?  madmac posted:Honestly, I can't even be bothered to refund games. If I make a poor choice, that's on me. I was laughing because refunding the base game over DLC would be the most TW fan thing ever. I hope there's more to the DLC/FLC too. Giantslayers cool though.

When a resource building has a recruitment bonus (like exotic animals building reduces the recruitment cost of dinos) the bonus is province-wide and not faction-wide, right? With the exception of upkeep reduction bonuses, of course.
