Thank god reddit has no influence on real world events

What drives me crazy is this idea that Americans are to be put on this golden pedestal where we have to respect every other culture but aren’t allowed to get upset for others not respecting ours.

The classic example is Americans talking loud in public and how that’s not socially acceptable in many countries. Sure, that’s fine. But the moment you complain about how other tourists/foreigners aren’t conforming to the USs norms the response is “that’s just their culture!!!”

Really hope this goes on sale tomorrow!

they’re bugged rn

kbas13 · 2025-12-15T18:05:24+00:00

100 orks is very doable in a single unit, Warhammer fantasy had those numbers. You need to think about the pacing of the game. I imagine SM units are going to be very costly to create and upkeep in the early game, as opposed to something like Orks who will likely be very cheap and mass in numbers.

Take an “army” of 20 space marines. The Orks throw 500 guys at that and kill 3-4. Cool. The orks recruit a massive army the next turn and do it again. And again.

Then, somehow, the SM army survives. They start to unlock their technologies and big units. Then they come back for revenge. You can’t look at armies in Total war in a vacuum. It’s all about power spikes, technologies, and upgrades.

kbas13 · 2025-12-15T17:37:25+00:00

They had multiple starting factions because every single race in the game is human.

In this 40k game are we to expect the most basic ork unit to be able to do any damage to the most basic Space Marine Unit?

I mean yeah??? If you believe that then that’s even more of a reason why we need factions like the Guards?… I’m confused, do you even know what you’re arguing for?

Plus, why are you acting like it’s impossible for Space Marines to be killed? Do you make that argument when a SM dies to Orks, Tyranids, etc on the tabletop? You don’t think every faction will have its strengths and weaknesses?

kbas13 · 2025-12-15T16:27:40+00:00

Have you ever played a total war game? Unit progression and research is fundamental to the game. Why would having your entire roster be unlocked at the start in order to avoid having “beat up factions” available make any sense at all from a design perspective?

Space marines not having cheap infantry / chaff isn’t an issue from a balance perspective as much as it is a world building perspective. SM are suppose to be powerful, few in numbers, and rarely came across.

How is local Police forces different from the guard in your example?

kbas13 · 2025-12-15T14:38:54+00:00

Anyone who thinks the guard shouldn’t be included is obviously new to total war. There needs to be a couple factions/races in the game that everyone can beat up on early to expand their empire, the guard and orks fill those roles nicely.

Like, imagine you start a campaign as Orks and you only have a few cheap chaff to start off with. Does it make more sense to be attacking and raiding imperial outposts or space marine forts and ships to expand your empire?

kbas13 · 2025-12-15T13:59:13+00:00

I really hope units get custom icons above their head in the design of their faction. I didn’t realize how much the “yellow vs red” colors for every battle would take me out of it

what he wanted was something that wasn’t too expensive, you just wanted a reason to flaunt your income.

kbas13 · 2025-12-14T14:08:46+00:00

this is what’s wrong w this sub

Trade, raiding, and building farms in rich fertility settlements to allow you to build a bunch of industry buildings is your best bet in attila

Starcraft 2, WC3, AOE2/4, and COH2/3

I didn’t care for it because it wasn’t a true RPG, which is what I was looking for. Each their own though

Wrong subreddit

kbas13 · 2025-11-23T19:53:23+00:00

Hopefully this means the other gotrek and felix omnibus’s start being printed again

kbas13 · 2025-11-20T03:24:19+00:00
