@kelmacett2456 6 ай бұрын

i think the beauty of true scale is that it makes conquering ONE known country an actual feat. There is a reason why the Empire of mankind in the Old World is called an Empire and not a Kingdom. It always irked me that a major country in the Warhammer World is composed of only a few provinces which would equate to only 3-4 major cities and a few towns. Also having played this mod fighting the skaven, goblins or dwarfs in the mountains feels awesome as the mountain zones are vast composed of cliffs, valleys, plateaus and corridors giving you the feeling of various military powers vieing for control the mountain realms and not just a STRING of settlements along a mountain line.

It's everything I hoped for and more.

Nah, we've already seen where this is going... Some modders from the GCCM team (unique city maps for WH2) were hired, the end result was seen in Wh3. Or Jack Lusted, the creative mind behind Thrones of Britannia, was also a former TW modder. Unfortunately, it is a bit naive to believe that modders have just as much freedom as they do in their own “hobby basement”. Bureaucracy hinders creativity.

@samuellancaster6487 6 ай бұрын

While I respect Chaosrobbie's focus on the just the actual map, this map requires a few "tweaks." The main problem is that the blown up scale causes more factions from races that cater to a specified number of factions, AKA The Empire of Sigmar. Their ability to conventionally confederate was basically removed so that the only way to confederate the Elector-Counts. This map adds several smaller factions that may be lore friendly but sadly damage, if not outright break, the current system. This is problem that Chaosrobbie, or other modders, needs to solve if the map is to continue being viable for play with The Empire. I will admit that I only have played 2 campaigns with the mod and that it is in a, at best, beta stage, so there is more than enough time for this problem to be fixed. Another, less pronounced, "quirk" is the Kislev campaigns. In the un-modified game, one fights chaos, the primary way to earn supporters, from the outset. In this mod, one has to actively seek out chaos factions to fight after reclaiming the initial province from a rogue Kislevite faction. However, unlike the above with The Empire, I do not consider this a bug but actually a feature. This is a different campaign experience (the premise of this kind of mod) and is a better reflection of the "story" for Kislev requiring unification under either of the 4 LLs.

@Grivehn 6 ай бұрын

That'd be neat. As it stands now, the experience is a bit same-y. Say what you will about IE, but the range of factions constantly around you is rarely one-sided. On the other hand, Order already dominates by turn 50 in my campaign on Old World. Franz and Louen literally have nobody to fight around them after the initial ones. Meanwhile Chaos seems content to muck around in Norsca, slowly getting pushed back by Kislev, which has way better autoresolve due to most their units being hybrid/ranged. Autoresolve favorites making this campaign tedious and purely Order-sided was what I was worried about. Seems I was right. Disorder is sorely lacking, and theyre mostly placed on top of each other to give people an Empire power fantasy.

@@goodmusic4673 They might be surrounded at the start, but so are those evil factions. I have no idea how you could thrive with Kemmler for example, even Moussilon is like 4 provinces away. Minor Skaven and GS get jumped on by like half a dozen minor Bret and Empire factions in less than 30 turns. As Franz, you just gotta hold out a little. The Imperial Authority is still the bigger issue with him... you absolutely cant stop electors almost half a world away getting blown up.
