Update on the siege: 800+ dead empire troops of around 900, 132 dead dawi of around 1100.


3500 dead Norscans dead out of 5900.


I learned today that you come in as a reinforcing army if outside the town.


Managed to actually push the Norse off the walls despite that, though.


Four stacks of Varg have been broken.


Now I have to deal with Chaos.

In warhammer lore, are "mummy" undead like the tomb lords fully sentient?

The leaders definitely are, not sure about their basic skeletons.

There once was a dwarf in a cave,
who many would consider brave.
With a head like a block
he went out for a sock,
his ass I won't bother to save.

It's hazy for the commoners. As in, I don't think it was ever adressed by GW. I like to think they are, though, even if perhaps limited in comparison to their rulers.

I read somewhere that they are more "conscious" than vampire counts' undeads, but not quite as sentient as the tomb kings. They conserve some part of their soul, while vampires counts' are just animated corpses, husks controlled by the will of their master.

Pretty much this.
Vampires use magic to make armies.
Tomb kings and their people have their souls trapped to their bodies for eternity because of a curse.

I don't understand.
Steam says RotTK releases at midnight. CA said there'd be no rolling release.

WTF is going on. I somehow doubt Australia is the standard at which they'll pin their timing.

Yeah, he's a banned spammer. Normally we'd delete this thread too, but people were having too much fun with it by the time we got here.

Darn. I had my shot at getting the night off so that I could hammer it relentlessly, but it appears that won't be happening.

In my lord selection screen, for some reasons Balthasar Gelt has a winning smile and sunglasses. I assume some mods having a laugh, got one from me.

It's one of Cataph's mods, though I don't know which.

I am greatly enjoying his overhaul (Boyz Will Be Boyz), though.
