Thread: First impression

    First impression, im really enjoying it, nice mod.

    Chose the Undead faction for my first run through the campaign. Must say excellent skins, making for some epic battles. I like the necromancy traits on the generals, being able to replenish my armies after victories is very well done, in terms of balance i thought a counterweight could be something like lose the general (the necromancer giving life to the army) then lose the army - might even things up for balance for the other factions.

    Carn't wait to see what you do with the Skaven faction when it comes along (by a mile my personal favourite back in the days when i used to tabletop) Skellies vs Skaven will become the toughest of my future campaign choices

    I just noticed the armor upgrade for Tzeench and Nurgle Chosen causes them to mutate. Awesome.

    Yeah. Chaos "upgrades" are actually mutations caused by "gifts" from the dark gods.

    We know the background, but we did not know you made it possible! Is there more stuff like that?

    Finally got a chance to play version 1.01 and I noticed they added two Bretonnian units as mercenaries and Night Goblins as a faction, not sure if anything else was added.

    I modded mine slightly to fit my preferences.

    - All standard empire foot troops (swords, pikes, spears, guns, crossbows, bows) Not 2 handers or cav have free upkeep
    - make all chaos warriors units 3/4 of the size. Works well for me now.

    Love 1.1 its fantastic and hardly any crashes so far.

    its a great mod... the best in my opinion

    i am a big dwarf fan and tested them in some custom battles. i think the dwarf artillery is to weak. 3 units of the empire organ gun can beat mass of orks or chaos before they reach melee range. the dwarf artillery doesn't have that potential... not in the least (not even in combination with the rifle guys). or do someone have a special tactic?

    i think the dwarfs should have a tough infantry + a very good artillery (they are famous for the war machines?) because they are quite immobile (no cavalry and as i noticed no counterpart to the enemy cavalry except the plugs of the standart infantry)?

    thank you for this great mod guys and thank all those people who are helping to get the mod translated!

    This mod rocks! It has the best models for any fantasy mod! It beats Mark of Chaos hands down. It just needs some balance, UI, and translation tweaks and It can possibly be the best mod for M2TW ever

    This is not a scam, trust me!
    Depends on how much you trust me I guess


    Oh Yeh, Heres the first Helms Deep video I made! -never got around to making an updated one -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kdcfj5MT0lA

    There's even unique captain models for the mercenary leaders (Ricco, Leopold, etc.) This mod has so many nice little details.

    Maybe they turned to Chaos. Time for you to burn some heretics.

    playing as the emperor (vh/vh) and I LOVE IT!

    orks, night goblins, dwarfs and beastmen are dead, elves are passive and chaos has united. both ostland and talabacastuff have turned chaos and i lost the northern half of the empire for a time, but now im rolling them back. the northwest of the empire rebelled against chaos (not enough garrisons imo), that comes handy.

    a hint for all empire players troubled by chaos knights and blood dragons: use gunpowder! and then use some more..... esp the pistoleros are wiping their a##### with heavily armored bad guys, they just run around them and shoot em off.

    mmm poor dogs then, i was helping them in secret killing powerful khorne chaos lords that are in the nort of sylvania with my vampire assasin, after he die in a failed success the empire make a crusade against drakenoft not too well for them
    now i just gonna say that nothing is gonna stop the chaos now and his friends of Ostermack, except of course they have the courage to pass sylvania and piss off Manfred Von Carstein
    because nothing is gonna take sylvania, mmm maybe is time to rise the army of the death and march to altdorf

    Well i've been an avid fan since Shogun:TW..... and I've always continued following the series of games from CA, even the not so great Empire:TW.....

    And to get things into perspective, I've also been an avid mod-gamer, testing way back and modding a little back in the original Medieval:TW with wess's mod, wrote a bit of text and a little historical research (Yeah im a History major)....

    But the one thing that never came through with all versions, a Warhammer based mod.... I even got to helping writing texts for the ill-fated Warhammer mod for Rome:TW..... (so if you need a bit of help for the units or fluff, i have most every book ever published for GamesWorkshop titles and games since 1995)...

    So congratulations from a Warhammer fan, and a satisfied fan.... sure their are things lacking, but ill let the other Horn blowers give you trouble with those..... i just love the game and can't wait to see what you guys come up with next........

    So I believe this thread should be for all the congrats and applauses deserved to all the team and still working members...

    Malkav..... from all the way up North in Nasgaroth..... (Canadian here)....
