Goddamn, a pirate cove in Lothern pulled in 800g a turn even before Lothern got upgraded on PartyElite's stream. This DLC can't come fast enough.

I think I have to go with Harkon in Vortex first, then either Noctilus or Saltspite in ME. I still haven't fully done a Vortex campaign in the Lustrian thunderdome so Harkon might as well be when I start, though Cylostra is also a close contender. I can't decide because she seems awesome but I don't like her start position as much.

Yeah I don't much like the look of Cylostra's starting location in either Vortex or ME, although I do like her as a legendary lord. Aranessa's vortex start is kind of off-putting to me because it seems to lock you into an inevitable elf war immediately, but I really like the look of her Mortal Empires start.

I mean, the real thunderdome start will be direfin since you're going to be wedged between Morathi and Mazdamundi with Crench, Alith Amar, and Khatep all coming for your nuts as well.

Don't forget, Big Daddy Squidface has to be downloaded separately: https://store.steampowered.com/app/835671/Total_War_WARHAMMER_II__Lokhir_Fellheart/

And opt out of the reinforcement beta if you want your game to auto-update.

Yeah, but I did Morathi and Mazdamundi starts already, but not Skrolk so that side of Lustria is pretty unknown to me. I guess I could save it for whenever Itza gets a LL occupying it, but that could be awhile

You can click download on the new LL and it pushes a 7gb update.

steam patching if you want to play something right now is unbearable

patched 5/7gb then just stays at 0kb/s for ages without explaining why

nice

The takeaway from those streams is to start dropping Coves as soon as possible in high-income target provinces. Lothern is probably first priority in that regard. A ton of those Vortex-adjacent provinces are coastal so there's some big money to be made up there.

I think when it stops downloading and spends forever on "disk usage" partway through a dl it's steam unpacking files.

She came back from the grave to sing for the pheonix king. And if she has to drown every elf to do it, well, so be it.

Vampires were my favorite faction at release, glad to see CA agrees and decided to add 10 vampire legendary lords, blood kiss generic lords that are legendary-lord tier, a new start for heinrich and vampirates.
