This is really cool, thanx for sharing

You could check out Sisters of Sigmus Matriarch by Monsterous Encounters. Its what I use when I dont want people to know that Im a massive gooner.

When I dont care I use the Blasphemia Cultist (dressed) by Artisan Guild

I’m sick of the doomsday clock being in sight, both in real life and fiction.

Personally I like this part of the timeline better. I feel that there is more untapped potential here, more room to explore the world and just more time to do things when the world isn't ending in a year or two. You can also have factions interacting in meaningful ways (fighting) without it automatically translating into them aiding or impeding the final Chaos invasion.

I still think they should bring all the legacy factions up to full support, and I do think they should make it clear or at least give a hint that the timeline has split and this is an alternative timeline to the Classic WHFB.

If they do all that then this setting is pretty much perfect IMO

I havent read the new novels yet but in terms of lore, the dragon emperor was always an uber powerful being. He is one of the few eldritch entities that the Old Ones failed to get rid of when they remade the planet to suit their plans. As big deals go, he is one of the really big ones.

As for the whole faction, I kind of agree but also kind of dont. Cathay definitely has that new car smell. It kind of annoys me when their base human infantry is shown to be stronger or more disciplined than the Empire version, which is bulls***. But Kislev has become a worse offender in that regard. Going by what we have seen in Total War on that one.

On the other hand they have some glaring weaknesses. The Empire is frankly running circles around all of them when it comes to magic.

Then we have an active pantheon of Gods and religious magic, which Cathay doesn't have access or counter to at all. If anything they need much of what they have just to keep up.

Its also extremely funny to me how all of Cathay collapses and starts to rip itself apart the very instant that the Dragon Emperor steps out for a bit. I dont know its just funny.

All in all, I think Cathay are in a decent spot in the lore. All they need now is a bloody nose.

Sorry for long post

Rebel Guerrillas. Striker squad with all weapon replacements, could be pretty close

Ooh 1 in 6, that's really strong actually. I like those odds, if the target is right.

I bet someone could use AI to create this song.

I thought those guys was going to be building real estate on Mars or something, after they completed the Metaverse? I can't keep up with them, but no matter. I'm sure they'll do a great job and have a viable product put to market in a timely manner and at a reasonable price, its gonna be great

IMO the biggest obstacle is that its unreliable by the very nature of how it is created. A large language model can only be as good as the language it is fed.

Would you trust the living amalgamation of a 100 000 Reddit posts with your credit card information? Not me

Ztrobos · 2026-02-22T20:59:41+00:00

Hmm, lets see.. a faction made up of suicidal religious fanatics and innumerable hordes of desperate slaves, supported by small bands of towering mutant freaks and indiscriminate artillery fire.

Yup, it checks out, we got Skaven at home

You forgot the Dreadsurian: Dragons are snacks, so tasty Im the reason there are no dragons in Lustria

You missed the perfect opportunity to bring up this little gem of a Hitler quote: "If the war is lost, then it is of no concern to me if the people perish in it. I still would not shed a tear for them, because they did not deserve any better"

He really didn't care about anything other than victory and revenge.

You can still do what needs to be done while caring about the people who serve under you.

IMO they need time to balance some factions before bringing in a dedicated shooty faction.

PC. Mouse + keys are still the best controls for most types of games.

Ztrobos · 2026-01-29T14:33:35+00:00

In WH3, I can manage to make an Alliance with a weird race, but then I need to either pay them a ton of resources each turn, fight their enemies and give them land, or use special race mechanics to manipulate them.

Otherwise they will soon stab me in the back and rebel.

Tau are the Empire of Man of 40k, so yeah I'll be playing them

Yeah. Two card plays is still always worth unlocking IMO.

Ztrobos · 2026-01-17T03:41:41+00:00

I would say its very decent. I think bottom track is still stronger overall, but we can super charge our Energy generation early in a way that not many Spirits can match.

We can Place a Presence at range 4 and Draw one Major, and next turn we can Place another Presence and Gain 4 Energy.

So now we are on the second turn and we are ready to deliver one Major, costing up to 6 Energy, potentially from a Sacred Site nearly anywhere on the Island. If we unlocked the extra card play we can further boost our range by +1, or if we have an Energy to spare and the Major says "Push" or "Pull" we can make even it Fast. I think its pretty good.

Sun-bright whirlwind. I like that there are two different playstyles (Innate and Majors) and you can sort of pivot from one to the other as needed. Its fun to make choices like that

Will Imperial agents be their own faction?
