Skarsnik's new start is fun as hell. Gunbad gives you money, you have an army of sneaky gits, and there's plenty of stunties to krump. Sieges, in particular, are hilarious. It's basically "oh you thought that my entire army was my hero and this Arachonok? Yeah, no, we're already inside your walls and we've captured all the points and you've lost."

I got like 9 hero choices without any loving mods its absurd and multiple lord choices--forgot how hosed some of the game 1 races are for lord/hero choices. My grudge points were being removed, I went from 4 bars to 2 after getting 5 wins on Skarsnik. The problem is I magically went to 120/80 points for no reason between a random turn and I don't think there's any chance they'll drop again unless I hold 0 grudges. Luckily Thorgrim is the best equipped to deal with it, though constant Slayer access fits Ungrim well too. RVT posted:I don't remember ever finishing a RoC campaign and I can pick him normally. But to be clear, I'm talking about IE, and that's where his gates really shine. Being able to instantly teleport across the big giant map is just unbelievably huge. Cease to Hope posted:No (except for the part where you get him as a bonus lord when you finish ROC). I think Doomykins is confusing Belakor with Boris, who you had to unlock by finishing ROC with Kislev until 2.1. I was asking if CA made you beat RoC once to get Belakor in IE but looks like not. It'd be fitting to get people to "appreciate" RoC once and get a super LL as a reward.

seems like using underway to hop around in majorly corrupted provinces avoids attrition no idea why or if it's meant to be that way also just had a new one - skaven attacked one of my forts, then bunched up at the entrance and just stood around getting blown to bits by towers

Underway has immunity to attrition in the tooltip, enjoy it. Underway is an amazing stance as long as you don't think "I just have to not get intercepted" before you use it, activating the desire sensor.

it's best to assume you will be intercepted

Underway interceptions are in some ways good because while your units get reduced stats, the enemy also starts at the other end of a big corridor so if you're a dwarf you just shoot them to pieces. It's like you brought the corner camp with you and the rats decided to throw themselves at it.

Playing my first Nurgle campaign on Hard mode. Which Lord should I use for my 2nd Army? There are two choices and they seem kind of identical, though you get to pick between Lore of Death and Lore of Nurgle I believe. What is really the difference between the infantry I should be using? They all seem to be slow mofos that charge like grandmas. What buildings are good to focus on first? They are all so expensive and I am so broke. I wanted to invade Cathay but loving Valkia immediately wardecced me with her Norscan slaves the moment I took my first province. Now I'm dancing around as Norscan full stacks sail towards my ports and sail away the moment I get my army into the port. I can never catch them. I got crushed by Dorfs in my first Quest Battle because their reinforcement cannons just have perfect accuracy on Kugath and take him out almost immediately, he's too slow to dodge anything or get out of their range. I am playing Realms of Chaos because I thought it would have more Fun Lore Stuff for the Nurgleboiz but is IE any better/different for him? I'm aware that Festus is probably better but I wanted to use lots of Nurglings very badly and if I only got a few demon slots in Festus army then I probably should use some of the bigger stuff. I'm kind of confused about all these buildings - do I really only need to build up one province since I can globally recruit anywhere? Also: When the hell do I get cool loading screen quotes? My game is still telling me about Monsters and Ogre Bulls and other tooltip stuff. This is my 2nd campaign. Mr. Grapes! fucked around with this message at 02:49 on Sep 9, 2022 |

Huh, hell, underway doesn't have any penalties in WH3, ok yeah just loving use it all the time then why the gently caress not, you would actually be better off if you took the skills that give you buffs on underway intercepts. I guess that must be why they added the penalties for SFO or whatever.

Mr. Grapes! posted:Playing my first Nurgle campaign on Hard mode. I prefer the chaos sorcerer lord. The have a better red tree and when they become a demon prince they get a special skill to give plague bearers reflect, which is amazing. The plague bearer basic military building gives 50% more income than infrastructure buildings and gives you good frontliners. Kugath should probably only use nurglings until you have lots of money since they are cheap and he makes them decent.

Couldn't get the landmark mod to work (guess you had some other mod too? But I got confused because the landmark mod says you didn't need it.). Too bad, there were some bonkers landmarks and there were just a lot more of them overall which made things interesting. Started a Khatep campaign, it's been a while since I played Tomb Kings. Totally forgot about the build discount edict, could've saved me so much money. Their buildings are pricey and slow to build but considering its just about the only gold sink you actually have that's not too bad. Some fun things I've observed: -They've toned down the tier requirements for some buildings which is nice (though I have T4 settlement mod anyway, sadly in this case Tomb Kings can't get much use of it compared to races whose infrastructure buildings can go up to tier 5 potentially.) -I don't feel like the chariot archers you get from the garrison building are really going to do much; guess kite some slow units around until they run out of ammo? Getting a T3 walled settlement with them is rather pricey. I haven't used them on the new minor settlement maps though so maybe walls aren't necessary? -Autoresolve definitely doesn't factor that free Ushtabi unit you'll get from realm of souls. Speaking of RoS, does it let you repeat the 3 tiers a second time after you get the Ushtabi summon? That would be nice if that global heal kept popping. -I had picked Khatep because I was going to do some gimmick with accumulating lots of jars then it occurred to me its just simpler to win battles and raze crappy settlements. It's fun to wait till an enemy re settles a ruin only to raze it again for another +30 jars.

Too bad, there were some bonkers landmarks and there were just a lot more of them overall which made things interesting. Chariot archers are the same as regular chariots but they also shoot while not in melee. They're pretty decent given how wide the TK settlement maps are. I think the Landmarks mod needs Mixu's unlocker IIRC

FWIW, there's two landmark mods I know of, which may explain the confusion: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2794696516&searchtext=landmark https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2854346056&searchtext=landmark The former hasn't been updated yet but doesn't need Mixu's Unlocker, but it'll be updated within the day and will then require it.

Ikit's start is somehow loving easier since you've got so many destruction aligned factions around you with mutual enemies who tend to run into/at other enemies that allow you decide whom you are going to backstab and under what conditions. Wood Elves are still a pain in the dick, but whatever, they suck poo poo at attacking settlements as AI and rats have absurd settlements. A crap stack of skavenslingers + a lord will AR win against a full Orion stack so just park one on the border if you really care.

Ra Ra Rasputin posted:They can only point that stick in one direction at a time, if microing the cavalry is too much effort, Ikit claw is right over there. Ya I used the archers and men at arms which are peasants but getting the shield upgrade was definitely needed imo. I still have only shock cav but doing the hammer anvil strategy is a lot easier when your infantry don't get rolled immediately. Bretonnia's start is kinda meh since the chivalry bonus takes forever to get a green knight so you don't really have a useful civ advantage early on. You can't also get too many stacks going since you are limited by farms/settlements on how many peasants you can draft. I finally managed to clear the main threats after a few campaign restarts. Got Marienburg, got rid of the orcs, got rid of Kemmler, got Mousillion. Slanesh across the sea on the West have declared war on me but no moves from that yet, Wulfrik declared war but he hasn't landed yet, only been sailing around Couronne. Not sure where to go next. I have few Bretonnia's to confederate which I am working through with the diplo. Is it worth going at the Fay Enchantress? I really don't want to go into Norsca territory, whenever I did that as Kislev it was a nightmare in the regular campaign.

Dumb/old question but what's the usecase for wizard lords as opposed to "Beefy motherfucker with a wizard hero in tow" ? Not talking LLs or special characters, just generic lords. Like, Kislev can recruit either for more or less the same tech & price. Is there a point ever recruiting an Ice Witch Lord I'm not seeing (let's assume I don't give a poo poo about the few traits they get through their training) ?
