StabMasterArson posted:When I think of Warhammer Fantasy I think of Squigs, Lizardmen, Skavens and Tomb Kings. It's a bit weird they're getting the more 'boring' races out of the way first but I hope they do carry on adding armies Giving people human/fairly "traditional TW" armies from the start probably helped smooth the transition into a fantasy setting.

Man, if we get tons of maps like this it's gonna own: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=860374284 Obviously thats imbalanced as gently caress and probably impossible to take but yeah, if we get tons of cool poo poo like that this is gonna be sweet.

This is just a long narrow bridge that will be lined with warriors and ironbreakers and will be a horrible slog to get through unless you have enough fliers. Sure, it looks cool but it would be so boring to play

The more I play it the more convinced I become that the Chaos vs. VC matchup is pretty much unwinnable in multiplayer. Crypt Horrors are way too good at what they do.

Oh yeah, speaking of Dark Omen, there's a theory floating around that the "Old Friend" teaser in the upcoming DLC list is Morgan Bernhardt and/or the Grudgebringers. That would be hella baller, but unlikely edit: comedy option Nagash we end times now The Chad Jihad fucked around with this message at 02:38 on Feb 10, 2017 |

They're probably saving Isabella/Gotrek&Felix for a hero dlc. I've read that there's code for unique heroes in there.

What fools we were.

They better use old model Nagash or I am gonna be mad. wiegieman posted:They're probably saving Isabella/Gotrek&Felix for a hero dlc. I've read that there's code for unique heroes in there. I think the Old Friend will be Krell, I am also willing to bet that the extra prize in case TWW wins will be the Hero DLC, or at least the Green Knight.

queeb posted:Man, if we get tons of maps like this it's gonna own: This map is actually really fun to fight on, provided you're defending. I can't imagine playing it against actual humans, but it could force an interesting focus on air units, I guess. Really, though, it's just for watching insane carnage thanks to artillery spam, and it does that really well. A single dwarf 40 stack army vs 4 greenskin 40 stacks? Sure why not. Watch the flame cannons all get 600+ kills.

I wish there was an undead or skeleton unit who would wear skeleton masks. Or alternatively living human masks. Like they want to look like the living but it's obvious that it's fake.

I'm just excited to get some interesting terrain features going on. I didn't realize how many maps amounted to open terrain with varying elevation until I saw people having some really interesting fights in canyon maps and stuff. I'm playing Attila again lately and forgot how fun town defenses with that game were (when you had double garrisons and deployables).

Plan Z posted:I'm playing Attila again lately and forgot how fun town defenses with that game were (when you had double garrisons and deployables). Really everything about sieges was better in Rome/Attila in my opinion. As annoying as choke points were, I feel like it's worse in Warhammer since there's essentially only one avenue of attack, towers are stupid powerful, and there aren't other layers of defense to fall back on. It was fun to defend cities with garrisons that couldn't possibly man all of the walls so you had to prioritize what to defend and have troops fall back to some other choke point or defensible position eventually. I also found assaulting those cities more satisfying since you could do stuff like sneak a unit over to some other gate, let in your cavalry, and surprise the defenders from some other angle. Amphibious siege landings were a lot of fun too.

I just paid attention to last year, but it was offering the Slav DLC for Attila, and Dawn of War 2 won, giving away the Necron Overlord which was a ten bucks DLC. But then CoH2 won previous contests if I got it right, and that game only has boosters as small DLCs, so...

Threw my lot in with Warhams this year, fingers crossed.
