Just reading Thanquol and Boneripper - I've got to say they're by far some of the best Black Library books I've read. So much fun and they go absolutely perfectly with the new DLC (especially book 2 which is literally Skaven vs Lizardmen).

Not a massive Black Library fan as most of it is absolute trash, but I'd recommend them unreservedly to anyone who even has a passing interest in any part of the warhammer franchise/TW:W etc.

Did anyone here try for TW: Ancient China? I've downloaded it, but have yet to try it out because of free Sims 4...

Been playing it extensively.

I really enjoy it. I'm a huge fan of the period and CA did an incredible job on it.

The diplomacy is top notch and I find myself getting really attracted and engrossed in each character due to how much personality they all have, especially for a total war game.

The combat is superb and the game runs buttery smooth. I'm on a 6 year old rig and I'm playing at high with extreme unit settings.

My only complaint is that after playing Warhammer 2 so much it feels weird going back to so few factions again. Turn times are so short haha. Also Southlands are so empty right now so Sun Jian is OP as fuck. He gets so much land so easily.

Playing on v. Hard difficulty as Cao Cao. He's hard as balls despite what the game says (v easy my ass). Bring sandwiched between so many crazed warmongers is challenging. Haven't noticed any blatant AI cheating yet which is nice. I'm sure it does, but no magic spawning free armies or anything like that.



I feel like surrendering right now. He got me good.

Shouldn't he be saying "You fight like a Cao!"?

I've noticed this isn't here already, so i'll post it. (pity there's no youtube embed)

The Doomsphere Plot

To surmise, someone gamed the undercity mechanics really hard.

Masterpiece!

Hot damn. I did a full-Lustria vermintide but this... this is monstrous.

[LordPorkins]

Wow. I was playing a versus ME where I was Ikit and my friend was Dark Elves. The goal was to conquer Ulthuan before he other did, so naturally I built it I blew up the whole of Ulthuan. But this... this is something even MORE

Am I the only one who doesn't mind that being in the game?  Its not like the AI is going to do it.

I don't think anyone minds.

Everyone likes Ikit, despite how OP he is. Just goes to show people will forgive a lot when you get gatling guns and nukes.

It's not like the Warhammer Universe doesn't run off of Rule of Cool most of the time anyway.

[Retropunch]

That was fantastic.

I know they have to balance things a bit because some people do play it multiplayer, but TW:W always feels like one of those series where it just doesn't need balancing because you can decide which faction you want to play (and there's a lot of choice). There's no harm in one faction being an 'easy' choice and one a harder one.

Also a lot of the stuff that Ikit Claw gets in campaign isn't available in multiplayer battles because they're from his workshop or are for the campaign map. So they have at least tried to keep the OP crazy stuff in the campaign.

For Total War Warhammer 3, when they add Chaos Dwarfs (Which im pretty sure they confirmed)

I really want there to be an event called "THIS WAS A MISTAKE" and for it to spawn a stack of Black Orcs at your capitol

A bit of news on Warhammer 2: Total War; an informational image was posted showing the planned free releases between now and, as according to CA_James on the forums, September when we can expect the next DLC to be released.

Link to forum topic.

The listed items coming are a new legendary lord, an old world update and "some old friends".

I would guess the old world update might be either a rework of the Empire or Greenskins factions. I'm leaning towards the Greenskins and the legendary lord would probably be tied to this in some way.

Some old friends I don't know. The last 'old friend' was Krell but what this one could be I haven't a clue.
