The AI can field high-tier armies, but if you take out the high-tier cities producing them, they won't recover. Which is generally their starting point, since there's too much territory around them changing hands. So it's a matter of overcoming their incredible aggressiveness (thanks to their inflated economies and many armies) and then once you do it's just a clean-up.I think a good improvement to Chaos would be to give them heroes, or some kind of unseen infrastructure, that can slowly spread corruption across the map from turn 1. (I'm curious if the third game will do something like this, since it will apparently feature competing Chaos factions.) The Beastmen kinda fulfill this role, but they get wiped out too fast. Maybe adapting rogue armies towards Chaos a bit would be a good compromise for ME, since they can appear anywhere and occasionally spawn their own faction.

The Mortal Empires campaign is the largest campaign in Total War: Warhammer to date. It contains 42 playable Legendary Lords, most of which have their own unique faction/starting position. Unlike Eye of the Vortex, Mortal Empires has no story progression, no rituals. It is more of a sandbox. The Empire (Mortal Empires) Faction: The Emperor is Karl Franz, Prince of Altdorf and Elector Count of Reikland. Karl Franz is said to be the greatest statesman the Old World has ever seen. He is also a military genius and a valiant general.

As far as I'm aware, going for their capital is pretty much the only way of stopping them from swarming you with armies, one after another. They recover in a few turns even after losing nearly their entire military, the time it takes them to recruit new units is the window of opportunity to strike for the player. Can't say I'm a fan of having to grind down AI factions which basically ignore all the rules of the campaign map, honestlythe Chaos invasions just get tiresome. In the vortex campaign, after a while, the intervention armies become a non-issue. The annoying part are the ritual-specific armies that can spawn in the far corner of your territory. IMO this is the best total war ever made.

The main reason i like it is the diversity; all factions are really really different from each other. Let's look at medieval 2 factions: In a very simplistic way you have 4 types: focused on infantry (HRE), focussed on skimishers (England), focussed on cavalry (France) and balanced (Byzantium). In warhammer each faction is vastly different from each other, so you have factions with 0 ranged units and factions with 0 cavalry.

Right now warhammer 1 has 5 base factions + 4 DLC and warhamer 2 has 4 base factions; the new campaign called mortal empires ends up using every faction. I'd say they are worse on the GPU if you like to play with high graphics settings.

If you use the Huge unit settings then you might need a good processor or OC your old one.My experience with ME:started with malekith on VH, somehow all my enemies defeated my allies and i lost the campaignstarted with queek on VH, the +15 upkeep for the second army just makes queek almost impossible to have a 2nd army. The last defenders conquered everyone, DoW me and conquered my cities.started with queek on H; managed to conquer most of the eastern part of africa southlands, The difference between +7% upkeep and +15% upkeep is brutal. I'll continue this campaign shortlyIf the mods allow me to recreate my OT here, i'll post here for changes/opinions. IMO the ammount of DLC, patches and the continuity of this game it really needs an OT.I missed posting and talking 'here'.

So good to be back. CA has said that currently there is no plan to add rites to old races because the rites are a feature that makes the new races more unique.I completely disagree with it, i think it would be cool to have weird rites for old world races, by fusing new and old mechanics.

For example: the rites for dwarfs could unlock by doing X number of grudges, for GS a rite for confederation when you win X amount of battles, Empire could unlock rites by holding key empire provinces. I feel like rites are a good mechanic when it is not directly trading buffs for money. Get those globadiers asap. They're more important than ogres or stormvermin or warp cannon or whatever. Tie the enemy units up with slaves and clansrats, then melt them away with globadiers.

They're anti-large (well, the cheaper ones), meaning they're particularly effective against cav and dragons and kroxigons, but from my experience they can handle everything. Anti-large is worth more than anti-infantry in the lategame imonow, when we get mortars and jezzails and ratling guns, that's when the real fun starts. I'm in a tough place.The core issue is, I simply can't fund the armies I need to hold everyone off.

Enemies adjoin me on all sides, and massive armies are always marching to crush me. My territory stretches from the Clan Mors start straight up to Karak Eight Peaks, plus Hell Pit far to the North. The largest, strongest factions in the Old World are warring with me, from the Varg to the Desert Vampires. It's only through pacts that I've avoided angering the Greenskins.And man, that Chaos arrival. I will never be ready for them in my current state.My self-improvement tips: As Skaven, there are no true allies, which means you're relying on gold mines and pastures to sustain your territory. I didn't expand beyond Karak Eight Peaks to the Greenskin or Dwarf starting locations, which would've been better decisions than trying to crush the Lizardmen.

Once my economy was expanded I could've focused more on locking down territory. (Because, in the grand scheme of things, the Clan Mors start kinda sucks.

K8P is way more valuable and easy to defend, and the territory North is just as good.) As dangerous as the Lizardmen are, their mobility is garbage and they'd struggle to make inroads past the Vampire faction they're fighting-even a single reinforcing army could help hold them down.Hell Pit is awesome, though I don't think it's realistic to keep it when the Varg devour everything. That said, it's a good boost for a while, easily worth the confederation hit. Hell Pit is far to the North, sorta NE of Erengrad in that mountain area where those Dwarves that always die are located. It has very good natural defenses, with an innate wall garrison, and special buildings for Hell Pit Abominations.Didn't play long enough to see where Chaos is going. It'd take them 10 or more turns to get near anyone they'd fight, because the Varg have conquered, no joke, 1/3 of the Old World.They really need to rebalance the Norsca. They're more dangerous than Chaos, and it will be worse once the DLC stuff is introduced.

They're like the old Wood Elves right now, only they take longer to ramp up. At first I thought they're just using slaves, but they had two nearly full stacks of clanrats somehow.

Turn 9, one settlement! If their reinforcements hadn't entered next to my starting zone, that battle would have been impossible. Is it bad that already want to do the battle again because my shaman died while I wasn't looking?:(the victory conditions are insane, even the 'short campaign' victory conditions want me to hold all of Lustria, Naggaroth, Altdorf, Hell Pit, the WE tree, well pretty much everything. Grand campaign indeed. Between being tucked away in a cozy corner and the -50% Saurus upkeep, The Last Defenders might just be one of the easiest factions to play the grand campaign with. Not even turn 20 yet and I'm dismantling the VC faction next to me that used to be #6 in military strenght versus my #74.

Autoresolve is generally also very kind to youI guess I should clean up the whole Southlands desert area first before heading north? To avoid getting sandwiched between the not-Khemri vampires and Clan Mors/Orks/Dwarfs. I'm really loving playing as the Cult of Pleasure. My economy is huge right now. I got 100k gold in reserve and making 10k per turn. I just smashed the Lizardmen to the south and now I turn my attention northwad. It's Naggarond and I for the Dark Elves now.

They are at 37 settlements and I'm at about 17 if I remember right. I waited for them to sail a bunch of armies to Ulthuan to attack high elves then broke our military alliance and declared war. The Dark Elf Civil War has begun.My four-pronged attack is sweeping over their territory, scooping up settlements but I should make another army to mop up rebels and defend against the forces returning from Ulthuan. Massive battles are ahead and things are going to get nasty.Sorry son, there can be only one ruler of the dark elves.

Well, as it turns out, without raiding stance or underway, and VC cities being nearly impossible to hold due to hugely negative public order, vampiric corruption is quite the problem. Change of plans!problem is, I first need to fight my way through the 'Silver-something' VC faction, because they and my LM allies next door have the only cities in the area. Had to sacrifice a minor settlement in corruption territory to go for the main city in the province, because that's only way I might ever get growth and order. There's a difficult siege ahead of me, autoresolve is unfortunately negative. I'm really loving playing as the Cult of Pleasure.

Massive battles are ahead and things are going to get nasty.Sorry son, there can be only one ruler of the dark elves. The same thing is happening to me in my current Vampire Counts campaign, I almost don't decide what I'm going to conquer next.

The Empire and Bretonnian provinces are declaring wars on me one after the other. I wanted to deal with the dwarfs sooner, but I just don't have time and they are getting big. I was hopping that the Greenskins would bog them down a bit, but they are just steamrolling them.

I'm going to finish conquering 'France' and 'Spain' and then probably start a no holds barred war with the dwarfs. On reddit i saw that CA said 'Regarding the Chaos Invasion issues people are having, we do have a hotfix in production which we will be looking to put into public beta and then release shortly. We can’t say when as we’re keen to get the scripting correct so we don’t make the issue worse for people and that will take some internal test time.' I just wish they announced when the foundation patch and norsca are coming; I'm not playing with any old factions until they bring those changes.I also noticed there aren't any animations between new races vs old races, this was disappointing. I was hopping giants and stegadons/carnasours fighting would get a couple of unique animations.

I also noticed that for some reason the eagle and the phoenixes of the high elves don't have all the animations of the wood elves eagle, does anyone know why?I have talked with he mods and the answer is that I can't be allowed privileges to make the OT thread, instead I'll have to send the OT info to a mod and he will create the thread. Would you guys want it that way? Or would you prefer that someone else creates the OT?edit for some reason my images don't appear. Shouldn't it be just use the link? I'm using my steam screeshots; do i need to upload them to another host to appear here?

After Tomb Kings the choices as to what dlc factions to add become rather narrow as there are no further Army books set in this area.As such various minor factions could get the treatment. Araby being the obvious standout since they have a well developed background and miniatures plus a list from the Warmaster days.Then the Southern Realms (Tilia, Estalia, and the Border Princes) either as their own factions as pike and shot with some unique units like the birdmen or light horse cannons acting as the new colonizers in the New World with some of Treasure Fleet mechanic or go the Dogs of War route and have them as an actual mercenary force with access to all sort of weird things.After that things get a bit loose.

You could have the Vampire Pirates who would be interesting as a unique undead faction with a focus on ranged units like the Zombie deckhands, landships, or rotting sea monsters.Or the Amazon's who are one of the Old Ones creations and with access to wierd tech.

Mortal EmpiresAcross the whole Total War: Warhammer trilogy, each instalment will stand alone as its own game, each with its own discrete campaign. We’re a couple of weeks out from part II launching, and we’re stoked about how the Eye of the Vortex campaign is going down. It’s been fascinating to hear how our test groups and reviewers, Youtubers and livestreamers are reacting to this new type of endgame in Total War, and we can’t wait for you to get your hands on it soon.We’ve long spoken about our end-goal for the Total War: Warhammer trilogy: to realise the Warhammer Fantasy Battles world in the most complete and detailed way as possible. All those races from 8th Edition Warhammer Fantasy Battles with army books, each with their own starting positions, all playable in the kind of holistic, mega-sandbox of Warhammer joy nobody has ever attempted before.We also said we’d do this in three stages: part one would cover the geographical area of the Old World. Parts two and three would explore other geographical areas and races.

Shortly after Warhammer II launches, owners of both parts one and two will get to play a key part of that grand vision with our first FreeLC download: Total War: WARHAMMER – Mortal Empires. Mortal Empires Lord and Faction Starting Positions. Mortal Empires will sit alongside The Old World and Eye of the Vortex as an epic fantasy strategy experience, a playable campaign in its own right, accessed through the Warhammer II menu.

We’ll be taking the iconic territory of the Old World you know from the first game and expanding outwards to the West, taking in key territories from Lustria, the Southlands, Naggaroth and Ulthuan to massively expand the playable area. It’s not a straight stitch-‘n’-fit job, and it can’t be – the Old World and Eye of The Vortex campaign maps are designed to be standalone; they’re different shapes and don’t ‘fit together’. Also, no Vortex story mechanics here: this is pure conquest, with all the playable races and factions we’ve released so far (plus a ton of AI controlled ones) vying for dominance across the continents.Total War- WARHAMMER 2 - Mortal Empires TrailerMORTAL EMPIRES -1 - Free For All Dev Tournament - Total War- WARHAMMER 2.
