I was tooling around with wood elves. Grom was trying to kill off Carcassonne so I stepped in and his trait is terror against greenskins lol. Made the rest of the reclamation of Bretonnia very funny every time my elk cav charged.

Hey now, we can go lower. How about Vlad giving a whole -4 Wound Recovery Time? And the TWW3 changes means you're getting this one instead of Isabella's super useful trait.

The wound recovery thing is actually pretty good and funny on Ungrim because you can just go and do something dumb then respawn and gather a heap of slayers to have another go.

Eh, for most playthroughs it's really not useful but yes it does have some fringe use. It was just a joking combo of most people not caring and the TWW3 changes meaning Isabella never normally appears as an LL any more.

Yeah I'm just saying you can do some funny things with it, versus +5 leadership or whatever which you can't really have much gamey fun with.

Francis posted:ok but show me the AI and balance changes to give the game any challenge whatsoever after turn 20 Agree I played Skrolk (without beelining for cheap Plague even) and it was pretty night and day clmpared to recent LLs...for the first 25 turns or so. By turn 60 nothing could stop me, as usual. The biggest issues are on the campaign map and diplomacy levels IMO rather than overpowered armies, I know people complain about anti-player bias but it was far better than what we have now. And the AI just doesn't seem to make as many armies as they should, the only dangerous factions based on army count tend to be waaghed-up GS. E: I've been playing max campaign difficulty since WH2 and even back then another level up would have been nice, but nowadays I would argue even necessary. Or just redo the tiers a bit and up the difficulty at the top at least.

It's a single player game and lord traits aren't even in mp. If you like abusing broken poo poo, go nuts. Otherwise, just ignore it.

Like first time I played Chorfs I focused on bull centaurs, so a couple months ago I started up another campaign with the goal of using a lot of Dreadquake Mortars because he'll yeah flares making earthquakes I ended up quitting before recruiting a single one because by the time the first settlement got to a tier high enough to recruit them the campaign was already so thoroughly and completely won I was just like 'what's the point' RIP

A few days ago GW revealed female Adeptus Custodes in 40k, with precisely the reaction you would expect from nerd chuds. Yesterday they put out an article about heraldry in Brettonia which included the following detail burried midway. quote:It is from these families that the majority of Bretonnia’s fighting strength is drawn, in the form of bold sons and daughters destined to serve their Baron, their Duke, and their King as Knights of the Realm. So it seems they also stealth made women knights of Brettonia canon, as well. I dont know fucked around with this message at 11:57 on Apr 18, 2024 |

I think a lot of it would be avoided if they just said "yeah we're rewriting this" rather than this weird thing of kinda changing it and saying "no it was always like that". The old writing only ever referenced sons (apparently). That's fine, just tell people "we're adding this, we don't care if you don't like it, shut the gently caress up". Granted, i'm not really that wildly into warhammer lore to give a poo poo, but i keep seeing people posting "sons" screenshots over and over again whenever they post an article about how it was always the case.

Had a hearty chuckle at stealth introduction of female knights of Bretonnia. I recall the introduction of Repanse as FLC and the universal delight at a badass Lady Knight. It's weird how that doesn't translate to custodes or space marines. "So now there are additional badasses you can fawn over and not trigger your latent homophobia." I'd assume you could use the horniness to get past their misogyny but apparently not. My morbid curiosity wonders if there was Sisters of Battle blowback in 1997. Women? At war?? In space??? I think the method of talking over chuds won't matter in the end. Time better spent smashing armies into one another. There isn't a solution where you can cleanly bypass or remove their innate misogyny. Or: dogstile posted:"we're adding this, we don't care if you don't like it, shut the gently caress up".

Theyr just saying theyr retconning it to have been always the case in the lore, not that it was always the case in real life since they don't control our reality It is kinda funny though that they just finished their 200 book 20 year series about the history of 40k and no woman custodes was mentioned. Imo Constantin Valdor is a trans man though

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1p_lQfhIeMc Oh lord Gelt has a broken rear end cheese. Because Triumphant Return buff from returning to the Empire gives a +1 Pop surplus when you claim a city in a region, you can take Altdorf or Middenheim, then take the minor settlements, abandon them, and each time you take them (And colonize them) you get +1 Pop. So you can have a Turn 20 Tier 5 Altdorf/Middenheim as Gelt.

Also... could we not talk about dumb fuckers on twitter and them being unable to cope with lore changes and female custodes in this thread. I had to block enough people already to avoid having even look upon people owning the libs/chuds. I just wanna enjoy shiny new lady custodes in peace

Yesterday they put out an article about heraldry in Brettonia which included the following detail burried midway. There's nothing stealth about it. With the launch of the Old World they just ripped off that particular band-aid. There's at least one bare female head in the new kit for knights of the realm on foot. This kit is meant to be cross-compatible with the old mounted knights of the realm as well to open up options there. Though, yeah, the majority of the heads in that kit are helmeted so you really can't tell either way. They've also put out an alright book set in the Old World called Lords of the Lance that features a bunch of women as knights. I think the more controversial issue was that the book has a pegasus knight using a bow and arrow.
