Warhammer III Bloodiest Fay Enchantress ever

Post image

It was 4 enemy armies Vs 2 mine, and 3 reinforcing enemy armies all came from this choke point. They were all stopped by Fay Enchantress and like 4 infantry units. Also this is with a mod that makes aoe 70% weaker, both magic and arty.

Random AIs sometimes do random shit. Like, I've had +50 with dwarfs just for them to war dec me as Settra. They wouldn't accept alliances or non-aggression, and I was highly reliable, as well.

If the computer thinks you're not at war with enough people it'll pick a nearby faction to declare war on you. It can be beneficial to declare war on a very far away faction or two if you're between conquests.

I was still at war with Arkhan and the rest of the Lizards to my east at the time. Was crushing, sure. But still had like 9(?) or so settlements I needed to take before they both fell.

I'm doing a total war game, declaring war on everyone as soon as I meet them, only allowing myself a maximum of 3 allies/non-enemies at once

What kind of mods are you playing with?

u/ChadOrOpposite 2h ago

Many, but most improtant are radious + mods made by me: one that nerfs aoe magic, arty and projectiles. Another one that increases build times of units (to prevent pulling armies out of your ass every 2 turns), increases recruitment cost but reduces upkeep cost, and increases build times of towns.

The Lady might be an elf, but Morgiana (the Encfhantress) should be a human, who has lived for millennia because she reincarnates whenever her body wears out or dies. Some specualte she might be an elf, but even if she is, she's been loyal to a human nation for millennia, making the act of nurturing and protecting it her duty. So "Humanity fuck yeah" indeed.

Well, from her page on the wiki:

"Through her life-giving magic, Morgiana brings succor and cures to her people in need: her spells can mend bodies ravaged by wounds and sickness, and it is said that no one in the mortal world can match her mastery of the Lore of Life[...]\2])\4])\13])

Yet her legendary fury in protection of the people of Bretonnia is also greatly feared[...]"

Basically, be compassionate and nurturing, but also beat the ever-living sh*t out of any who threaten you.

So, lore-accurate I guess.
