litany of gulps posted:Empire TW had exactly this in the form of Dragoon units. Mounted ranged infantry. They couldn't shoot while mounted, but the idea was to use the mounts to rapidly get them into flanking positions, then dismount and have them form shooting lines. They were always pretty terrible to use and manage, but frankly that was just because it was always better to form your battle lines and use artillery to force the engagement. That and battles were really fast in empire. The entire game bit of significantly more than it could chew.

Arghy posted:MTW1 and 2 had dismounting knights i think and i think some mongol horse units could dismount too. No idea why they removed it because it was a really cool feature but it was something you decided before the battle began not mid battle. They should play around more with unit summons like a hero that has vanguard and stalk that can summon 2 units of some fast non crumbling skirmish cav. Miners on TT basically appeared out of the ground or from a table edge so you could have a miner hero thats the cost of 2 units of regular miners that'd summon miners in around him. Med 1 units could dismount pre battle. Not Med 2. You can script units to dismount pre battle in the current spate of games but then there's no point. DaysBefore posted:There were dismounted knights in Medieval 2 but they were an entirely separate infantry unit. I never like taking options away but at the same time I really can't think of any times where it's preferable to sacrifice the mobility of cavalry for a unit of infantry. They were situational as heavy infantry for attacking towns.

TheLastRoboKy posted:Here's a question related to this I'm not sure of the answer for, but pretty much all heroes that buff artillery and such just generically buff artillery right? So any other factions artillery brought in via alliance, would they also receive the buffs or does it retain them for faction only? Stat changes to units on the campaign and battle are given via unit sets in the database and most red line buffs are designed just for the unit sets of the faction itself. So the answer is no.

redline buffs are good if you can kit a hero into being the main frontline fighter and use the lord as a buff giver/campaign benefit giver. Or you can install skillpoint mods.

TheLastRoboKy posted:I mostly meant things on the yellow line with the Dwarven Engineers and the Vampire Ghost Gunnery Wights, since in Markus' campaign you can get a Dwarf Engineer who can buff the poo poo out of your artillery off of his yellow line. yeah he has a custom yellow line.

Its an individual thing that is very easy to miss out when you are porting entire databases. You wanna be mad? There's rome 2 or older era road tables in the game but you can't link it to anything. When I made my empire mod for Warhammer 1 and 2, I worked around it by giving armies a movement bonus IF they started in the region the building was built in. Lo and behold Warhammer 2 came out and CA ended up doing the same thing.

Arghy posted:Alright i am content, no matter how much they gently caress it up the modders can make this work. What i'm not happy with is the underground canal from the norse dawi to the sea of chaos is not there. The emo edgelords get their underground canal but dawi dont?! It's in the book. Kraka Drak is an unplayable faction. Although I am curious as to what Cataph and co whip up if the mechanic itself is moddable.

Sindai posted:The unit upgrades system (and instant warband recruitment) is to balance the fact that WoC now can't recruit whatever they want the way normal factions can. It depends on where you are and how corrupted the area is. Eh, its more like what will mods do with it. A modded Dogs of War faction for instance could easily use the system. The big thing is the attached UI that CA made from scratch that dumbasses like me who can't script can use to make field upgrades for units a thing.

TaintedBalance posted:The major differences are reach, armor, and you're forgetting the fact that bloodletters have magic/fire attacks as well, which means they chew through a lot of earlier infantry better. I actually sort of think in fairness that swordmasters should be magical attack, especially since HE will actually be fighting a lot of demons. Hell, their weapons are by lore all magical and they're role is straight up hunting down the Cult of Excess and loving up Slaneesh/DElf cults in general. If they got that, then they'd be VERY similar. High elves have all the lores of magic so in the course of a campaign you can easily give your swordmasters magic damage.

OwlFancier posted:I kinda wish the luminark was more like... a big laser beam. I have never really found a use for it other than the net of amyntok. It hits fairly hard sure but like, so do cannons. The Luminark is fast enough that you can move it to an enfilading position and fire down the frontlines, racking up a ton of kills.

Dr Kool-AIDS posted:Also we remember old games based on how they looked relative to the time, so games that were beautiful at the time are often remembered as being much better than they are compared to today's graphics. Warhammer's obviously working on a pretty dated engine by now since the first game in the trilogy came out over six years ago (and I think they were using the engine before that?), so thinking the game looks pretty rough isn't that much of a hot take. What? Name a similar large scale RTS game that looks this pretty.

toasterwarrior posted:On a related note, Slaanesh and Asian-coded characters being added to Warhammer with TW3 has led to some utterly depraved and uncool poo poo from the modding fringes. I shouldn't be surprised but it's shocking all the same, seeing these sick fucks get activated the moment they have an Asian lady as one of the main personas in a...grand strategy game. Weird how you only get the usual "nearly nude" mods in TW2 with the incest MILF elf but somehow the Asian lady gets a full package deal with the more hosed-up parts needing you to go to a third-party site for those people who machine translate from chinese to english are really fetishizing asian coded women. We should stop them!

Doomykins posted:You don't have to be sorry but people are going to correct you and have a laugh if you're a bit weird about it. WH2 had horny mods. Slaanesh was always going to get modded to "fix" scary androgyny but the Dark Elves and their stripper battalions aren't a WH3 addition. Miao is horny fodder but I think there's just unfortunate overlap in nerds who want an Asian servant waifu and general horny, not that that's the primary motivation. Katarina gets the same treatment. Valkia too, I can confidently say without looking at the workshop. Dunno about bigger but Warhammer 3 right off the bat has modding tools to add animations, maps, the entire asset editor etc with CA working out ways to make more stuff moddable. Warhammer 1 started off with the pfm file editor.

Doomykins posted:You're trying to point out why it has a 71% rating and are proving that a big part of it is because nerds are petty and kind of dim. The real reason of course is that WH3 had a disaster of a launch. "Whatever man, nice evidence." So you ACTUALLY thought it was fair to compare release WH3 LL roster to the complete WH2 + WH1 roster? Come on. Total Warhammer 1 was in it's sixties until nearly the end because chinese players would buy and review bomb it for not having a chinese translation.
