With regards to artillery, I think it might have to do with how the Grand Cannon/Little Grom/Ironblaster's animations have to factor in the beastie pulling them as compared to artillery of prior games being pushed into position. Noticed a lot of the time when my pieces aren't firing, they're turning around at random chasing their tail or need slightly shimmying to unstick them, hopefully the unit responsiveness fixes will help. Only piece I've noticed that doesn't suffer this as often is the Cathay Rocket Battery, maybe due to how it arcs more dramatically, though that has its own problems of suddenly not arcing and obliterating any poor unit just in front of it.

The chaos realms we see aren't the entirety of the chaos realms. We're busting into each specific chaos realm's equivalent of a province in order to kick a specific daemon prince in the dick before running away.

Foul Fowl posted:i mean just imagine how much better this game would be if the campaign map was just a bunch of provinces, you could move one province a turn, that's it. no more whack a mole, guessing if the last 3% of your movement is enough to get you somewhere, etc. etc. it would cut out so much of the time wasted fiddling with movement and watching the AI with absolutely nothing of value lost. I'm imagining the original Dawn of War campaign map, and I'm enjoying that image.

There's better ways of addressing things like whack a mole: passive movement buffs in friendly territory, support buildings that buff local movement, AI behavior that has a % chance to make suboptimal decisions or has their vision adjusted, etc. Regarding passive movement buff, now since wh3 that is already a thing, you do in fact get a 10%(points) movement increase when starting in friendly territory(including allied and vassal controlled regions). Ofc the game is real bad at indicating this clearly but easy to test urself as when starting a campaign and hovering over movement you will see that you have 110 movement points on your first turn, then end turn in a enemy region and next turn you should have just the base 100 points. Also to note on movement; the tooltips are all outdated and refer to % when its actually using a movement Points costs for each stance. Ambush stance for example requires 25 points not 25%. Yeah this game is a mess with its ui and bad information.

Vashro posted:can someone breakdown how unit exchanges and hero embeds use your move points? So, Lords and Heroes each have a certain amount of movement points per turn, so using what Choyi shared... if a Lord has 100 movement points and a hero has 110, if the hero uses 20 points to move then embed into the Lord's army, the combined Lord and Hero could move 90 points that turn, and on following turns would only use the Lord's movement profile. The same goes for units moving from one lord's army to another. If you have two lords with armies and 100 movement points each, if one army moves 50 movement then moves any of its units into the other lord's army, the game accounts for the units having already moved that turn and thus the lord that received the units would be capped at 50 movement points that turn.

A shame, almost, that you cannot peasant railgun your way to moving an army halfway across the continent by swapping the units between a daisy chain of lords.

There's better ways of addressing things like whack a mole: passive movement buffs in friendly territory, support buildings that buff local movement, AI behavior that has a % chance to make suboptimal decisions or has their vision adjusted, etc. There is going to be a LOT of mod flexibility on AI difficulty in the campaign, CA really improved the framework of how factions work on the campaign map. 3k introduced the concept of 'potential' for factions, which gave faction specific bonuses specific to both difficulty level AND the faction within x and y 'potential' score. These could be adjusted at the start of a game depending on the player faction (so you could have specific rivalries). In WH3 CA has added a bunch of new tables that monitor all sorts of variables like player has x settlements, player has x allies, turns elapsed, undiscovered factions, ect. (tons more) that allows the scaling of 'potential' beyond just the start of game, it can now adjust itself mid campaign. Captain Beans fucked around with this message at 22:45 on Mar 27, 2022 |

AAAAA! Real Muenster posted:I cant really break it down fully but can explain it as far as I understand it. Essentially, the game tracks each lord, hero, and unit's movement individually and no army can move farther than that individual's max that turn. However, heroes and units in a lord's army can always move the speed of the lord leading the army that they are in when they start their turn in that army. thanks this explains several of my botched turns. does initiating the unit exchange take move points like if I swap with a camp then exit and swap again?

They don't even have the blood pack out yet nor any eta for it. I think people will be waiting a long time for DLC and Mortal Empires. I'm of the opinion that there were some massive behind the scenes gently caress ups going on during development for this.

I'm looking forward to Chaos Dwarfs. The impression I get is an even more extreme version of Dwarfs with magic and hobgoblins/Black Orcs. Wouldn't be surprised if they use the slave mechanic from Dark Elves. It's gonna make Boris Ursis start a huge pain in the rear end, that's for sure since they'll be one province over.

Hopefully we hear more about this stuff this week, since the 1.1 patch is apparently still due in April, and that is likely to include at least the blood DLC with it. We won't know until we know, though, which makes it frustrating.

So... a small exploit for y'all. If you're out of movement points and don't have a hero in your army, recruiting and then canceling the recruitment will refund movement points to your units. You can use this for infinite home defense range depending on your patience.

hi so unlocking boris campaign is tied to the steam achievement so if you fight that battle while steam is in offline mode you don’t get the cheevo and gently caress you for not noticing until 100 turns later once you’ve deleted the saved

Validating your files will never fix issues like this because they are not caused by corrupted data. People who suggest this are the same people who call parts of a game they don't understand "bugged".

Lol, does it work if you just press "halt" and then "fire at will" or does it do the same shuffle? I'm assuming it thinks its gonna hit the gunners at the front.

It really does look to me like they're just being obstructed by the infantry in front, despite it not looking like they should be. Artillery in this game is incredibly finnicky and whiny about LOS.
