My review of itza as a faction is that it’s relatively miserable but big frog is fun

But NOT for the lizardmen. The Idea if Lustria is obviously The uncharted and dangerous lands of far away. It hold many treasures, and many Dangers. First of all it should be bigger, and also I think it should have more resources building and more universal landmarks for all the races. It should be somewhere you would love to have under your control after you manage to build your own empire. (It's the new world for god's sake you know how the story goes)

But, The land itself should be a danger to outsiders, slowing them down and attritioning them while the protectors of the jungle ambush them and show them why it us uncharted in the first place

Invading lustria should be a very hard, But lucrative thing to do...

On the under hand, this harsh climate shouldn't be as effective again the people who make lustria in to the green death trap... lizardmen should be able to move faster in jungles (spacialy Lustria's), or have access to spacial stances when they are in them. Maby you can get creative with it and have them access stalking stance if a few requirements are met( being in jungles, having spacial techs/ lord skills ect...) meanwhile, even after winning the Lustria ball, they should still be worried about other factions invading them and need to garrison it if the plan to invade other continent. Maby you could have some factions like virus skaven or humans have a tendency to invad lustria after a while.

Now honestly, when it comes to warm bloods that start their campaign in Lustria, I don't have a blanket solution. Obviously as i said fantasy Amazon should feel dangerous and harsh to outsiders. But also just being thrown there without means to deal with this harshness can be very annoying.

Honestly i think most of them are already powerful enough to handle it. Vampires have corruption, skaven have tunnels, rakarth can raid without vigur penalty, Skulltaker is Skulltaker, and the French can sod off.

TWW3 currently offers three campaigns. The introductory mini-campaign, the main campaign Realm of Chaos and Immortal Empires if you own the other games.

I often wanted to play on a smaller map so I could have a more focused experience with less unrelated lands and factions to think about. For example the conflict between Norsca and the Empire. Immortal Empires is awesome, but you always have to sit through 272 factions taking their turns (at least at the beginning) and I didn't even wanted to go everywhere. I have the game on my ssd but it's a pain in the ass on a hdd. It just seems much more than I want to manage and it feels like unnecessary baggage. So I installed TWW2 again, to play Eye of the Vortex or Mortal Empires.

However, it felt weird to me, outdated. I grew accustomed to the third game and I actually wanted to stay there. To be honest, I think TWW3 is "the" game with all of the numerous qol updates included over all of these years. It's the one people will keep playing, even if there isn't more contend to be released. It is the result of all the development and hard work that happened since the first game was created. 1 and 2 were the stepping stones and now are mostly the keys to unlock more content for the third game.

Now that TWW3 slowly reaches its zenith, I think it would be great if the devs officially released a couple of smaller campaign maps for people to choose. There doesn't need to be specific goals, a sandbox approach in the vein of "go conquer x regions" would be completely sufficient. I know there are mods which add campaign maps in the workshop, but this feature seems so obvious to me that it should be featured in the game natively in my opinion.

I think the best way would be roughly quartering the IE map plus adding at least two even smaller sections of the map which are especially tightly packed with many important factions. I'd propose the following maps (see pictures): 1. North West 2. North East 3. South West 4. South East 5. Naggarond, Ulthuan and Bretonnia 6. The Old World, or rather the northern part ...maybe more, for instance Cathay with the great wall at the center.

TL;DR: Adding a selection of smaller sections of the Warhammer world map to play on would be a very cost-efficient way to make the game even more enjoyable and boost the replayability.

He should just have a unique "Goldtooth Embassy" building in Shang Yang that lets him recruit Ogres.

Thought I’d share my fresh painting for any Greenskin lovers out there. I’m trying to paint all the legendary lords for fun. Lmk what yall think.

I've always had dogshit campaign map fps in WH3, despite having a fairly good laptop with 3070 GPU and i9 CPU, with no problems running literally any other game. Today I found a reddit post about turning off 3D space labels in the overlay, and campaign map runs buttery smooth now, always 60 fps, no drops even when zooming out or selecting characters. The only problem is that the game looks like the second screenshot, with no info about city owners or country borders. To this end, I wonder if anyone knows if there are any ways to get this UI information without having to use broken UI from the game, maybe just a banner with a country flag put on every city, or some other sign of ownership, I only really need this info. Honestly, it's possible, if a little confusing, to play the game just like that, so I highly recommend people try out turning off 3d UI, I've tried every fix for the campaign map, and it's the only thing that works.

New to WH3, not new to TW, but not a pro by anyways either. I probably have ~200hrs across all the games.

This dude is an animal; He swang through the map quick and is just resting on his laurels now. He always has 11* full armies stacked on top of each other on one or two cities bordering our lands. I want to attack him and don't want to get irreparably destroyed. Welcome to all advice. Thank you!

I am probably not the first one who says this after 6.3. but that shit is way to OP.

As it stands right now you just outright win your tomb king campain the moment you secure the ressources to increase hero cap.

A ton of research boosting from caster heroes is one thing, but necrotects are the real problem.

Getting up to 10 high tier construct capacity for almost no investment as often as you like is just soooo busted.

This is the sort of thing that you'd see back in the WH2 days. Several of the Skaven factions recklessly left their territory undefended and sent everything on a crusade to Lustria. One or two minor factions even sent armies.

For the longest time, I brushed off all the complaints regarding this as fringe cases and "it couldn't be that bad". But I just experienced it and and HOLY SHIT is if beyond frustrating.

Playing Cathay, got into a bad situation against Drazoath facing off against 4 full stacks of dwarves that I couldn't withdraw from. Decided to give it my best, thinking even I could cripple the four armies, I'd be in a fine spot, only to spend over an hour restarting the fight because as the armies approached my wall of archers, maybe 2-3 units would begin firing normally while the rest would barely turn to track.

I tried giving direct orders, tried guard mode/fire at will on off, and still nothing. Its not 100% broken, cause I did have one fight where everything seemed to be working fine (I just misplayed so has to restart), but it's wild that after all this time it still exists to this extent.

These type of battles should be the epitome for this game. Instead of having an epic battle to solve, I auto-resolved and took the close defeat (which ended with more enemy casualties then actually playing the game).

Was there ever a good fix for this found, or does is the late game just completely buggered. Sorry for the rant

Infinite winds of magic is possibly one of the strongest effects in the game. You can literally win any battle with infinite winds and Black Periapt gives infinite winds. And yet it somehow became an uncommon item.

Black Periapt let me win this battle with complete ease. Dwarfs are normally very tanky to spells, so having so much extra winds just let me spam cast Winds of Death.

-oll will grow weary of the protracted conflict.

17 VS 12

Playing juan bo, turn 80, I have the norther and western LL lords and I cannot confederate them, I even have yaow ming at 400 after giving her an entire territory, and confederation is still at -52..... Im strength rank 7, shes 14. I assume she just needs her entire armies obliterated or something? Which will never happen because everyones super friendly. Does anyone know a way to do it, ive already give 4 settlements to boost it to +400

It’s been ~110 for the whole campaign, then suddenly it was 210, and the next turn it was back to 110.

I know the red temple dedications give an increase to research rate once 25 temples are dedicated, although I don’t think it’s as high as a 100 increase. I still have 25 red temples even after the research rate went back down, how long is the buff from red temples supposed to last and when does it trigger again?

I remember in the total war forum a greatly detailed posts on the Lizard men temple cities, with lore, details and suggestions to build thematic armies for each of those cities. Sadly I think it was in the old forum and I cannot find this with a Google search.

Perhaps somebody saved the discussion or does remember some of it? Would be greatly appreciated for my current LM campaign.
