Total War: Warhammer (RTS fix?)

[El Che]

Probably just the internet. A lot of the lore for this game comes from some online campaigns they ran, Storm of Chaos and End times. The lore was always published in the rule books, so yeah the internet would be the place

Mods are making it a lot better, I'm going to try the one that slows down combat because the fights do end damn fast, I think it averages about 6 minutes for a big fight. The economy could probably use a rework. I also really, really hope they add in some of Warhammers more unique races not to far from now. I would love to see Lizardmen, Dark Elves and Tomb Kings tearing things up

Cool man thanks. I'll have to check up on it. There was a movie called Space Marine that my movie showed me a couple years ago that was freaking awesome. I gotta get into the universe more.

The battles are longer then in some previous Total War games, but I also remember a well timed massive cavalry charge would break the enemy lines pretty quickly. Here the battles seem to be a little better and more balanced. The mods will continue to make it better. They are pretty epic.

I hope for more races also. They are distinguished significantly enough already for a different experience between the races so hope they can expand on that.

I am. The actual battles are epic and they nailed the warhammer feel in it. I am disappointed with the overall campaign though, at least as Vampire Counts. It doesn't seem particularly well planned out. The diplomacy is also fucked, which is to be expected. Oh well, in a week or two modders will have it fixed.

What do you mean by fucked? The AI just waiting to backstab you? That has always been my complaint about Total War (despite loving the series overall).

I'd love to see Skaven, Lizardmen and Wood Elves, in that order. I've always been disappointed that they always go with the more standard races in every Warhammer game.

That's one of the things. Also I've noticed that a lot of times I'll be neutral with a country and trying to improve relations and turn after turn they just reject every offer. There was a mod in Shogun 2 that reworked diplomacy and got rid of the fucking realm divide shit that made it a much better game. So simple and not game breaking at all. I have one now on Warhammer that gets rid of that damn aversion to great power penalty

I'd love to see Skaven, Lizardmen and Wood Elves, in that order. I've always been disappointed that they always go with the more standard races in every Warhammer game.

Exactly, there is a lot of much more creative shit in Warhammer but the always opt for the familiar ones. I guess it's an easier sell. I will say though that managed to make all the factions very unique from one another, which is a feat

That Space Marine movie is absolute garbage. If you're interested at all in the lore of 40k though you should start by reading 'Horus Rising' by Dan Abnett. Fantastic book if you have any interest in sci-fi.
