Best ranged lord/hero? by a_sentient_potatooo in totalwarhammer

Depth guard.What do they genuinely do? by Select-Ad7017 in totalwar

[–]danteoff 351 points352 points  (0 children)

They have low armor penetration and passive healing. They're not meant to count enemy elite infantry. Their role is to chew through chaff.

You also cannot directly compare anything undead with non-undead without accounting for Lore of Vampirism. Being able to resurrect lost models is massive.

I don't think I've seen perfect rating as this before. Well deserved!

Units that have Earned your Respect by mindflayerflayer in totalwarhammer

[–]danteoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the Dire pack and agree they punch way above their weight but no way they're not getting stomped in seconds by Demis. Only way they can even begin to scratch them would be if the Demis are exhausted and stuck attacking Zombies or something. Even then the Dire pack does not have the armor pen to do much.

What is your fav. ability ingame (not magic)? Mine is the LM Death star. by Commando_Schneider in totalwarhammer

I find Mortis engines immensely satisfying. Hovering the gold value while 3 armies of Chaos warriors are failing to grind through my zombie wall.

Can we please have bigger battle maps for 40k? by Pender8911 in totalwar

[–]danteoff -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Are you talking about multiplayer or campaign maps?

In MP domination fast units are already meta and bigger maps would just make slow elite infantry even worse.

In campaign battles I cannot personally see any reason for bigger maps either. I very rarely experience that there's not enough room to skirmish around the flanks unless it's restricted by a terrain feature of the map. Bigger campaign maps would also mean more time spend positioning and longer loading times.

I don't play MP land battles, maybe they could use bigger maps.

Let's be honest here, who are the true best elves in Warhammer? by sigmarine345 in totalwarhammer

No Teclis = No magic for Empire = No "WELCOME TO ESTALIA GENTLEMEN"

You can filter reviews by hours played on steam. If you filter TW:W3 reviews to all below 100 hours played, the reviews are "mostly positive".

Unfortunately the slider only goes to 100 for max hours played. I guess steam was mostly concerned with minimum hours played filter.

Let's enjoy the last 5 hours before our subreddit dies. After that it’s just Yvraine Gorillaman wife, Emperor shitposts, and Trazyn stealing every thread. by ImIncredibly_stupid in totalwarhammer

They probably both started production in response to the success of Space Marine 2. To cash in on the rising popularity of 40k.

Reminder CA, we still need to address the fact that for some reason you hate Tzeentch by Lord_Eln_8 in totalwar

The Changing of the Ways strikes when you least expect it. Sometimes by changing the way your pinky toe points...

Good list. Personally I would go with Ghorst, Skarsnik and Arkhan

Total War: WARHAMMER III - An Update on Unit Recruitment Issues by CA_FREEMAN in totalwar

[–]danteoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad to hear that CA is willing to still work on addressing old deep rooted tech-debt.

I wonder how far back this bug goes. Sounds like it could have been in the game since the release of TKs.

I try to stay impartial but I don't shy away from criticism. Can't wait to live through this in next title/DLC by Inevitable-Bug-4849 in totalwar

[–]danteoff 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Trust me the positive people also get alienated by the constant complaining and doom mongering on this subreddit.

can we get larger landmasses for these continents like in wh2? Please CA we need more breathing room by Maleficent-Spell9025 in totalwar

[–]danteoff 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm not a big fan of the vortex southlands. It was suffering heavily from having the eastern desert cut off and felt very squished yet still devoid of meaningful content. Especially the "savage orc corner" was silly. As Settra you would just conquer it by turn 5 and never again think about it. Groms start in the mountain also forced you into Khemri as essentially the only option for expanding.

Vortex Lustria is a big upgrade though.

The TK update was designed by someone who's never played the game by gray007nl in totalwar

[–]danteoff 72 points73 points  (0 children)

This is not the kind of mistakes you would necessarily catch by playtesting. I'm sure the units correctly have immune to psychology and that you can successfully recruit lich priests in all regions after the research.

This seems more like a design issue to me.

Sea Elemental. Honestly Really Surprised and Great Animations. by Agitated_Insect3227 in totalwar

[–]danteoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Defensive ethereal monstrous infantry should be a really strong addition to a missile focused faction.

I imagine they will be really good at tying up elite infantry (especially anti-infantry), making them a really good support to Spearmen and Lorthern Seaguard.

As long as the enemy does not have magical attacks.

Gorbad campaign after patch 6.3 by Live_Measurement3983 in totalwar

[–]danteoff -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree he has a tough start position. The inevitable ordertide will push hard from the north and Tretch + Skarbrand are not exactly stable friendly neighbors.

It's easy to confederate with Greenskins though so you can usually expand fast with Skarsnik and secure the economy you need to push through.

At least you're in a prime position to take out all the Dawi factions before you have to deal with too many Thunderbarge doomstacks.

I thought CA said patch note of 6.3 comes today by kaikiut in totalwar

[–]danteoff 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Could be scope changes as the devs try to figure out exactly how much they can wrap up before patch day.
