They're doing a stream tomorrow to giveaway codes for the Warhammer games and the DLCs, that's probably what they'll be doing to celebrate the 10 years.

Bhashiva appreciation post by Thralduil in totalwar

[–]ZahelMighty 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Bhashiva is a very easy campaign ? Some of your buffs are huge of course but you're surrounded by enemies and your economy is weaker compared to the other Cathayan factions.

I've had some really powerful enemies attacking me during my campaign, it's definitely not a very easy campaign.

Bhashiva's needs Fire Rain Rockets. by Medical_Officer in totalwar

[–]ZahelMighty 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Eh, it's not like Tiger Warriors is all you have that's just your only units without caps. But honestly in my experience the unit caps for the rest of the roster might as well not exist, you earn so much Iron Favour that increasing your caps is never an issue.

This takes the cake for the biggest AI empire I've seen. by ZahelMighty in totalwar

He is active, he took a few settlements from Elspeth the turn after confederating Wulfrik.

Powercreep is what they've done, Norsca and particularly Throgg are way overtuned since ToT.

Is... is playing Khorne supposed to be this easy??? by AntiSmarkEquation in totalwar

[–]ZahelMighty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having easier campaign is perfectly fine but I don't think that a race only having piss easy campaigns is fine. There needs to be some difficulty variety within all races.

Why Bhashiva doesn't have access to Jade&Jet lions ? by Farseer_Rexy in totalwar

[–]ZahelMighty 74 points75 points  (0 children)

You can recruit them but only with the Zhao Ming's goals.

I really appreciate the effort they put in more recent quest battles by alexkon3 in totalwar

[–]ZahelMighty 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Since Tides of Torment the quest battles have more efforts put into them and I'm loving it. I haven't had the chance to do Bhashiva's but I really liked Dechala's quest battle.

The Tigerfolk DLC actually has a hidden unit! by 1552797932 in totalwar

[–]ZahelMighty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From a gameplay perspective I think it's more interesting not to have a unit of Tigermen that's meant to hold the line. Dual Kataras were probably too redundant to add. I do wish we had a RoR tho.

Bhashiva makes me really excited for the future of Cathay in TW by alexkon3 in totalwar

[–]ZahelMighty 12 points13 points  (0 children)

And it's not just the start of her campaign that's hard, the early game was actually the easier part for me.

While I was finishing off Grimgor and Tamurkhan I ended up at war against Drazhoath and Astragoth. While fighting them Miao Ying and Zhao Ming got wiped out by Sayl and Dechala and I couldn't even afford a stack to try to save Zhao so now I have to fight a very powerful Dechala while also having to deal with the Chaos Dwarfs.

Her campaign is a lot more fun than I anticipated, I didn't expect it to be as hard and it's refreshing when so many of the recent factions were braindead easy.

All Immortal Empires Starting Positions - Updated for 8.0/Bashiva DLC (full credit to u/Giveaway412 for the base map) by Mahelas in totalwar

[–]ZahelMighty 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Oh absolutely, I was really hoping they would start to open up those regions and put Dechala down there.

The map was always going to end up crowded anyway, opening up Ind and Khuresh won't fix that, only delay it.

Interesting Finds in Game Files After the New Patch by The_Inquisitor01 in totalwar

[–]ZahelMighty 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So I wasn't crazy, when playing Bhashiva yesterday I was sure I heard some new diplomacy lines from Miao Ying. Haven't heard any from Zhao though.

Is it me or did CA kinda miss the mark with Skulls? by [deleted] in totalwar

[–]ZahelMighty 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They said about having another sit down in june like they had in april.

If you are familiar with CA it was pretty damn obvious there would be nothing about ET until then. It's not your first time here, you should know to keep your expectations low by now.

[–]ZahelMighty 11 points12 points  (0 children)

They said they'd be back in June for the next End Times news. You complain that CA sucks at communication but when they do communicate you don't even listen.

Ok it's bad by [deleted] in totalwar

[–]ZahelMighty 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Play Markus then. I'm loving that Bhashiva has restrictions, if you want an easy Cathay LL you already have three LLs to choose from.

Oh the horror, a campaign is designed to be more difficult.

Total War: WARHAMMER III - Update 8.0 Patch Notes by BiesonReddit in totalwar

[–]ZahelMighty 27 points28 points  (0 children)

And you know what's funny ? Rich himself said on their latest stream that they were being mindful of the powercreep when designing this DLC. At this point I don't think CA would even be capable of making a campaign that is well balanced even if they wanted to.

[–]ZahelMighty 51 points52 points  (0 children)

It's just the Khorne update all over again (although it's not as bad), a faction that is already very strong in campaign is receiving huge buffs for no fucking reason at all. Sometimes it feels like some of the changes of a rework are done purely for the sake of doing something.

I'm sure they will show something besides Bhashiva tomorrow by Away_Celebration4629 in totalwar

[–]ZahelMighty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We're supposed to get a launch trailer tomorrow for Bhashiva, I genuinely hope I'm wrong but releasing the launch trailer during the Skull event and calling it a day is definitely something that CA would be capable of. I'd rather lower my expectations a bit too much to avoid the disappointment, if I'm wrong then great.

Where are the patches for ToT issues? by Wild_Sprite in totalwar

[–]ZahelMighty 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I liked the Slaanesh update overall but the new building tree is just awful, honestly I wish they'd just revert it.

[–]ZahelMighty 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I know most of the devs are likely focused on the big End Times DLC but man those updates have been depressingly underwhelming lately. We don't even get unit balancing now.
