Ardent Communist posted:It's all part of the Great Plan. This is actually the answer; IIRC all Lizardmen have the Cold-blooded Logic diplomatic trait, which means they follow the logic of the Great Plan (who loving knows). Basically they will do inexplicable poo poo at times, very much in the vein of classic Total War AI.

Apparently Albion is actually in ME now (well, on the 8th) rather than the unexplored land or whatever it is now. So maybe a lizard will start there.

Is poor Teclis still going to be sandwiched between legendary lords on all sides on his little island?

Albion was apparently added to Mortal Empires, so it could be the starting place for the other Lizard lord. Probably Nakai the Wanderer, since Mazdamundi told him to establish a temple city there. He's a Kroxigor too. If we get Tehenhauin in Itza or around there, then we'll have each of the Lizardmen species represented. ZearothK fucked around with this message at 18:42 on Nov 4, 2018 |

This is the most obvious/spoiled DLC in Warhammer I think, haha.

All I actually really want is Skarsnik for Lizardmen. Armies of super cheap skinks swarming over the world with their blowpipes and adorableness. Tehenhauin, come to us.

Wild Horses posted:Hey thread you need to vote for what vortex playthrough I’ll do next. Even grosser and filthier rats. Unrelated but I just remembered a key ability of SFO's Grudge Raker Thunderers: they can shoot while in melee, meaning that while Longbeards (same tier) can last way longer than them, they can out-kill them to a stupid degree. Since I am a firm believer in shooting everything dead, and routing enemies is a byproduct of that, I suppose using shotgundorfs as my frontline instead of boring shielddorfs may be a Smart Idea.

We were told he wasn't going to be FLC, so either he isn't going to be in at all, or he is coming now. Ikit Claw and Thanquol being the two Skaven LLs makes the most sense to me.

I do recall one of the devs mentioning Thanquol would be coming.

Laughing Zealot posted:Where does the new Delf lord start in ME? They added his island to ME. He’s south of Teclis and Harkon, off Skrolk’s coast I’m excited for him. I expected Morathi to be the dorks’ chief lizard plunderer but she is thrown into the thunderdome from turn one. Lokhir will have more freedom and safety looks like.

Ah, right I remember them saying that. For some reason I’ve taken it to mean something other than a lord pack. Hopefully we’ll see before too too long.

Update on my ME Norsca run: Will to live: waning. Should have gone with Archie. Elfvader is super useless. I burned down centre Ulthan, but everything got recapped once I moved to other lands and it made no real difference to the elf civil war. Kislev murdered my rats when I was occupied with WoC so burning down from the north also does little. If I can actually scrounge up the will to finish this then I'll try to collect the rest of the cheat techs, move around South and help the orcs grind north. Probably the last time I start ME.

I really hope it's Nakia now, not only cause he's cool as heck and a neat nod to the Albion campaign, but in addition to being an amazing start position for Vortex and ME (gives ME races a more immediate Lizardmen faction to fight as well). So who are people playing first on Thursday? I'm thinking Noctilus for Vortex, and Arnessa for ME. Arnessa's ME campaign appeals to me as tough, but a chance to mess up the Old World races.

They are updating the traits for most of the older starting lords, just wanted to point out the White dwarf is getting a 20% weapon strength bonus vs all elf factions for every army. Grudges will be settled.

In Turin's Harkon game his main army is almost entirely rifles and arty and it's disgusting just how effective it is. He clowned on a army stacked to the gills with depth guard with overlapping fields of fire in hilarious fashion.

Man, Teclis's start in ME is going to be basically untenable now. He already had a poo poo sandwich of a start due to all the corruption and now he's going to have to fight real rear end LLs from all sides.
