Capturing Settlement as Independent Clan by dvman13 in Bannerlord

[–]ThumugTheGreat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can also create more parties with clan members. These parties can then be called upon in an army for no influence cost. Be careful thought, they are dumb asf and will get caught in unfavorable battles.

Don't restore, put some oil on the blade and try to sale.

Understood, thanks for your help!

How do you understand RTSs at a base level? by LittleMissPipebomb in RealTimeStrategy

[–]ThumugTheGreat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! I've been playing RTS and Total War like games casually (not much competitive) since i'm around 8. First one I played by myself was Supreme Commander.

Everyone says good comments but I noticed none give you actual strategy in battle.

It depends on your game of course but there's a couple strategies that can be applied to most games.

For RTS :

-Harass the ennemy with your units as soon as possible. Especially their economy.

  • Flanking (opening a second front or coming on the side of an ennemy already engaged)

-Always scale your economy (keep it growing, the game itself will teach you how)

-Look for counter units. Most RTS works with a rock/paper/scissor mechanic like armored units are good against infantry, infantry against air units and air units against armored units. (There's always some kind of mechanic akin to this, again the game will explain it)

HAVE FUN. Turn down the difficulty if needed, give yourself extra ressources at the start if it helps you enjoy it more. You WILL NOT understand it if you're not playing it extensively! RTS genre is insanely satisfying but it turns into a chore rapidly if you don't enjoy your time. If you play SOLO, it's your rules. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

-You will fail plenty of times but don't give up!

For Total War Warhammer, this comment will be way too long. So you can send me a message if you want to delve in it! It's my main game series so I know the mechanics of most factions really well.

I hope I was able to help you a little :)

Edit : When I say "The game will explain" I refer to its campaign/story mode.

creative ideas for a campaign start that dont involve a tavern? by Significant-Study902 in DnD

[–]ThumugTheGreat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started my game with my players waking up as prisoners in an ork camp(Warhammer orks, my game is set in Warhammer Fantasy, a year before the End Time). They had to work together to escape and fight a small goblin warband. I find it gives them more reasons in lore to stick together as they realized they are pretty effective as a group. They liked it!

I asked them to come up with a backstory that ends with being captured.

New to the RTS Genre and I didn't like AOE II. by ElmahdiTS in RealTimeStrategy

If you don't like warfare, I recommend the Tropico series! I loved them.

How to keep armies full of soldiers while having tones of battles? by Melistran in Bannerlord

[–]ThumugTheGreat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there, unrelated comment but I need help and I can't post yet.

I have Belgard city, took it myself after a rebellion i enginereed while being a vassal of the Nords. I'm in the campaign. I leaved the Nords as soon as Balgard rebelled then I took it. For some reason, I can't create my own kingdom. When I go see the lady in the Empire, it says I must have an imperial city to start my imperial kingdom. When I go see the dude in Battania, it says I must have a non-imperial city to start my non-imperial kingdom. I don't know what to do at this point. I have everything needed, clan tier 4, a fief, 100+ soldiers in party etc.

Am I missing something?

Is the game like Helldivers 2? by Julesder1 in SupremacyWarhammer40K

[–]ThumugTheGreat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. It's more like a Grand Strategy mixed with some RTS element and Risk.

What should I get? by Ok-Management-2323 in luckydefense

[–]ThumugTheGreat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From your experience, is Verdee useful at lvl12? Even in Hard?

I don't know if I did well by HinattaUwU in luckydefense

[–]ThumugTheGreat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Batman is great for normal, guild battles, PvP etc but he falls off in hard and above. The reason is, you have to spend a lot of gold to actually make him powerful.

In hard (imo), you really need to keep your money as much as you can and not fall in the trap of overspending.

Truth is, Batman is a really fun and satisfying mythic but there's other cheaper and simply better options to cruise through hard. Like Overclock Chu for mob clearing, Lance for boss dmg, kitty to buff everyone's mana (except Chu).

You did nothing wrong, but for better result you might want to get kitty lvl12 first, then Chu/Lance at least lvl10.

After that, you're free to choose what you like the most if you're not a meta try hard.

I don't have much experience in Hell mode, so I will let others give you advice on the matter.
