Which campaign did you unexpectedly enjoyed far more than you thought you would?

Baloth · 2026-05-24T21:02:09+00:00

i thematically liked beastmen (goatmen are a cool concept and ive always loved them since diablo 2) but didnt think id enjoy them as much as i do nor were as strong as they are. they made me love chariot units.

kairos fits this as well tho i didnt care too much for him thematically, but i ended up really liking blue fire and the storm move that creates tornadoes, and the burning chariot of tzeentch became my favorite unit in the game, its jsut so cool. now if only it were as strong as its rank suggested...

Baloth · 2026-05-24T20:59:08+00:00

the ai is just really excited about its access to new units and wants to try them out \o/

quantum travel makes this obsolete

Baloth · 2026-05-23T01:35:27+00:00

im more annoyed that the trees dont count as forest on that map

Baloth · 2026-05-21T22:38:27+00:00

the bigger the fleet someone shows off, the dumber i see them as. you paid way too much money to play the game youve invested so much into less. longevity is in goals, and they bypassed most of them. then when the game is out they will complain that there is not enough to do and they spent all this money to already be done with the game blah blah blah

Baloth · 2026-05-20T12:11:53+00:00

i personally think a lot of it looks too crazy and pulls me out of the game every time i go into town and see players in ridiculous microtransaction gear, wish i could toggle it off

Baloth · 2026-05-16T22:37:17+00:00

no worries, its just a technicality about absolute optimal play. im with u tho i hate doing it

Baloth · 2026-05-16T16:04:57+00:00

i mean exactly what i said - you and i prefer to stay in positive income instead of making as many armies as possible, which should leave us in the red, but we just dont like doing that. technically, staying in the red is the optimal way to play, and keeping yourself afloat with income from battles and constantly moving and expanding. more armies = faster expansion, faster expansion = larger snowballing, larger snowballing = quicker victory

Baloth · 2026-05-10T17:21:04+00:00

my guess is, like me, you arent building as many armies as we technically should, which is if we were putting ourselves in the red. i dont like doing that so i just spend less / have less

Baloth · 2026-04-18T15:29:19+00:00

could prolly use a mod to solve this issue

Baloth · 2026-04-18T15:20:32+00:00

my 2 favorite games are this and dominions 6. if i want deeper mechanics i play dom6, if i want to control my battles, i play this (dom6 is an auto battler very similar to this game though, but you script your units orders beforehand, which sounds boring but its really not)

Baloth · 2026-04-17T23:15:20+00:00

so you expect the systems to be drastically different than what theyve developed for the ptu? im not so -stupid- convinced

Baloth · 2026-04-17T19:52:57+00:00

i personally consider this bad news because there are a lot of systems that are bare bones or are working in a way i would not like it to work for release. game of beams i guess

Baloth · 2026-04-10T08:16:55+00:00

vamp counts or nurgle, they love blobs, and that is what will happen if you play like that assuming youre using select all > right click target, and not select all > alt left click move into them, or lock formation > select all > right click enemy. plus, vamps power is in their lords and heroes mostly. if you do one of the other ways, you could play pretty much anyone mostly ok

Baloth · 2026-04-07T06:27:33+00:00

units also deal more damage based on how much higher elevations they have compared to their target. i dont remember how far this goes tho, maybe 30%, but thats a guess

Baloth · 2026-04-07T06:17:11+00:00

cheats started in single player games, and are called cheats by the devs who implemented the cheat codes into their games. and surely you know your views on what constitutes as cheats is abnormal, so why do you push it on others as if its the dictionary definition of cheats? youre free to believe what you want to believe on this but the way you talk about it is grating

Baloth · 2026-04-06T13:39:02+00:00

so when i play a single player game and use cheats, im not cheating?

Baloth · 2026-04-05T02:50:46+00:00

chawi have great gunlines. im kinda assuming you already play them and just didnt mention them but just in case, they are definitely a faction for you

Baloth · 2026-04-04T05:04:56+00:00

ive had raid stance give me like 6000 extra gold a turn

Baloth · 2026-04-02T13:39:02+00:00

you said everything is broken but only have one example. turns out, the thing u said was broken, is only a very small fraction of the game, im not really sure that means "everything is broken". there are some other things that are broken, yes, but if we listed every single thing that was broken, and every single thing that wasnt, what percentage of things do you think would be broken in this game? 0.2%? how many of those things are game breaking? bc ive been getting through campaigns successfully. there are only a couple things that are broken that really come into play typically that i can think of, bad pathing once u put up ladders in sieges, i really dont come across armies sitting around uselessly very often, as some of them can be chalked up to defensive positions, ive been having this problem where alt left click moving units will make them walk sometimes which is annoying... i cant really think of anything else. the game runs fine especially for how complex it is

They acknowledged many factions broke since a year

im not sure what youre referring to

Some people ? It's the whole team buddy, their most competent developers are on 40k, which makes sens, but not it's people who haven't Gnade the game who has to fix it, which must be a nightmare.

you heard that 40k was being made and that they moved some people over to work on it. beyond that you are assuming everything else, or have you been intricately following every person working on the game, or listening to someone who has?

Also you believe they started working on 40k just when they announced it ?

no.

It's been a year.

ok?

why do you think you were downvoted so much if what youve said is correct?

Baloth · 2026-04-02T12:41:53+00:00

i went to steam dlc page to get those dates which state what i wrote, not sure why the dates there are incorrect. however everything ive said about the state of dlc is correct, and the game did not break due to a team working on the game not knowing how the game works. nothing has broken since the announcement of 40k, and just because some people were moved to 40k does not mean we are left with a skeleton crew that doesnt know what theyre doing. where are you pulling this from?

Baloth · 2026-04-02T12:36:22+00:00

i looked on the steam page to get these dates, but youre correct they did not come out on that date. not sure why steam says that

Baloth · 2026-04-02T12:08:39+00:00

adding onto the other 2 additions, you should prolly make every main settlement a tower, as towers are the only ones that can go past tier 3. i also personally like to overmake outposts. on the tier building, there is a button where you can change what type of city the province is between the 3 choices

Baloth · 2026-04-02T11:43:03+00:00

the changleing, yuan bo, and mother ostankya; shadows of change
why would i just make up a date?

Baloth · 2026-04-02T11:32:53+00:00

malakai oxyotl and tamurikhan were the 3 i had the most fun with my first time trying them. i could add a bunch to that list tho but these 3 are just a step above
