ArtDecoSunburn: I'm expecting some elector count action.
Astrovore: Sayy-gahh
TWCblank:
not a script, but mandatory verbiage 
Micalovits: Whaaaat, responsibly and properly disclosing sponsors?
ForOhForError: Sega? The maintainers of the Official Sonic the Hedgehog Discord server?
Metric_Furlong: relationship with bofades?
kaijuknight428: Question is, who we playing as?
tacotom93:
Hi from Texas Cam!!!! 
beowuuf: don't worry cameron, i'm older than you , it's fine
lightfut: Oh man Shogun 1? Those wonderful little sprites in massive battles
Micalovits: Now now, I was 5 when shogun 1 came out
ArtDecoSunburn: I still assert that best Warhammer is original first edition WFRP. The Enemy Within.
IsabellaTheFoxgirl: i wouldve been 8 when Shogun 1 came out
Metric_Furlong: Shogun Total War 1 is 26 years-old, for anyone wondering
SilasLunark: This game slaps so hard, ive been having a lot of fun with legions of undeath and thanquol is a absolute treat
lightfut: That was one of the first games with like a bloodline sort of mechanic
SilasLunark: Yari spearman is correct
IsabellaTheFoxgirl: ive played MANY hours of Shogun 2 tho
SilasLunark: Total warhams 1 was a good time until archaeon shows up
ArtDecoSunburn: @Metric_Furlong I hope there's a "play as Richard Chamberlain character" Easter Egg.
SilasLunark: Oh yeah beastmen could just spawn in wherever
SilasLunark: Although its worse with the headstones now
SilasLunark: Brass bull goes hard
Invitare: they're the French analogues right?
Invitare: sounds like the French
brieandbacon: I could get off on Bretonian ass...
Micalovits: Very french
SilasLunark: Praise the lady
IsabellaTheFoxgirl: i will have to reckon with myself if i need to buy that Shogun 2 complete edition when it drops next week
Invitare: (I'm English, I'm allowed to say this)
SilasLunark: Elfs even
JPS_Lindberg: The French, to be fair, have not had a great track-record with their left flank
Metric_Furlong: but could elves?
brieandbacon: Wood elves? Sounds Welsh
DoodlestheGreat: Would elves what?

ArtDecoSunburn: @Micalovits Before they became pseudo-Arthurian French archers and knights, in WFRP they were delightfully decadent ancien regime pre-revolutionary French.
tacotom93: Last time I played i was Kislev and I also got completely ransacked by the beastmen and forces of chaos
IsabellaTheFoxgirl: i cant wait for Total War Warhammer 40k
SilasLunark: But I dont wanna play pontus
ArtDecoSunburn: @tacotom93 That's kind of why Kislev exists. RIP Praag.
lightfut: My personal favorite was medieval total war
Simbionis: The switch to the 3d overworld map yeah
Mangledpixel: the increasingly incorrectly named Total War: Warhammer franchise
Metric_Furlong: Medieval Total War was the one the cool kids liked
JPS_Lindberg: Total War seems like the perfect Warhammer gamification tho, non?
CaptainSpam: Majority Of War: Warhammer
kaijuknight428: My most recent campaign was with lizard men and I achieved a long campaign victory
ArtDecoSunburn: @Mangledpixel Could have been "Total War: Hammer."
Metric_Furlong: aka "die to the Golden Horde" simulator
JPS_Lindberg: "Perfect" as in... "cleanest"?
SilasLunark: The fact total war warhammer literally revived old world warhammer is amazing
Micalovits: Warhammer: Total war sounds better
ArtDecoSunburn: Remember the Slann?
Decaped: Total:War:Hammer
brieandbacon: Warhammer Total 40 War K
Micalovits: @brieandbacon Soon^tm
lightfut: Oh yeah, there was always the mongols of damocles hanging over
SilasLunark: Book says you're wrong
ArtDecoSunburn: Fimirs!
kaijuknight428: Oh, that reminds me, what do you think of the new seraphon model tetaxi?
SilasLunark: Big frog says you die now
tacotom93: TW 40k is gonna slap
SilasLunark: Prepare to be delivered... from your life
ArtDecoSunburn: WFRP 4E has a not half bad Lustria sourcebook.
lightfut: "please brace for customer service" LMAO
SilasLunark: There's a reason its called the deliverance of itza
SilasLunark: Captain of mommy issues
kaijuknight428: Unfortunately still no umbraneth in aos
ArtDecoSunburn: Speaking of Warhammer adjacent, did LRR ever play Mordheim on stream?
SilasLunark: Give me the hag any day
Metric_Furlong: still can't believe The End Times really tried to go with "Malekith was actually the rightful king all along and would have been a good guy if you just gave him a chance"
JPS_Lindberg: I played so dang much Mordheim back in my teenage days. We even made an infinite exp character sheet for it
ArtDecoSunburn: From the peanuit gallery, play it! The campaign lore makes up for the individual mechanic shortcomings.
Metric_Furlong:
it's by Games Workshop, we already know it's not a very well designed game 
ArtDecoSunburn: @JPS_Lindberg Neat.
SilasLunark: Let's goooo
southpawx7n: I
SilasLunark: Did you have a faction in mind to play today
southpawx7n: I'm assuming this is not a 40k game?
SilasLunark: Oh its so different
Micalovits: It had a... Rough launch
Metric_Furlong: @southpawx7n nope, fantasy
Simbionis: 2022?
kaijuknight428: 2023? I think
Mangledpixel: tooty tooty two
Vinewood_OG: As a treat....
SilasLunark: @Micalovits I loved kislev on launch it was brutal
Simbionis: okay yeah feb 2022 it came out
ArtDecoSunburn: @Metric_Furlong Which so many 40k fans forget predates the space one.
Micalovits: @SilasLunark Still is!
Metric_Furlong: TW:Warhammer 3 was 2022
SilasLunark: @Micalovits I tried it again recently and their new basic spears is crazy
Simbionis: steam tanks ftw
SilasLunark: Oh heck yeah let's play toddy
ArtDecoSunburn: I'd love a true RPG set in the Warhammer fantasy setting.
SilasLunark: Same intro
ArtDecoSunburn: Yeah. Let's play Middenheim.
Simbionis: nagash, thanquol, toddy and glotkin
Micalovits: @SilasLunark And relieve the beastmen trauma!
kaffeetrinken89: Empire has best stockings in Total War.
SilasLunark: I love the intro hate that noise
ArtDecoSunburn: @kaffeetrinken89 As an historian, I'm never going to complain about a Holy Roman Empire pastiche.
Simbionis: oh actually have they fixed the bug with toddy's campaign?
Simbionis: for some reason the beastmen were getting massive weapons buffs
SilasLunark: @Simbionis Yep
Simbionis: ah cool
SilasLunark: Oh its definitely not good
RathmoreTV: 100% good, yeah
SilasLunark: Thats the vortex destabilizing
Mai_Andra:
"Ask not for whom opportunity knocks... they're not here for you." 
ArtDecoSunburn: Amazing how much of Warhammer lore revolves around warpstone fallen from the sky.
SilasLunark: Normal normal good experience
SilasLunark: I am almost to 40 years old, im allowed to be bad at games
JPS_Lindberg: I kinda love how Total Warhammer have handled sequels. Last time I peek in, I was told I "owned" TotalWarhammer 3, without ever having bought it, and found out that my Total Warhammer 1 had just upgraded, minus the newest factions

kaijuknight428: Wanna take a quick look at the other races quickly?
ArtDecoSunburn: Oh, this is new lore. OG Todbringer was Elector of Middenheim, not Middenland.
Invitare: Such is the power of Nagash
Simbionis: such is his power
SilasLunark: Nagash is fun but a very slow campaign
devilmonkey2012: Nagash is very fun but pretty complicated
Whisle: Oh wait, nvm - such is the power of Nagash
Astrovore: I'm always going to vote for the rats
AugmentingPath: Nagash is great if you like mechanics. He's got all of them
Micalovits: Only slow if you are a coward
kaijuknight428: Path of exile looking tech tree
Just_Herby: Don't forget that Sigmar himself was an Ulrican
Micalovits: The entire empire is just the holy roman empire, with just as much internal politics
TXC2: or like Reverse Hussites
ArtDecoSunburn: Sigmar was Conan meets Charlemagne.
TheWanderingNomad: Were you thinking Hammers of Ulric Cam?
SilasLunark: Lee pace would be a good sigmar
Metric_Furlong:
The Dark Forest Forest
SilasLunark: God i love these kinematics
TheWanderingNomad:
@SilasLunark I don't think I've seen him in anything with his shirt off - how Barbarian is his physique? 
Micalovits: wasd! and zxcv for rotation and zoom
ArtDecoSunburn: Again, a plug for "Middenheim, City of the White Wolf" as a sourcebook for the rpg.
BorgarWithAShotgun: is there still the Bug with the 1.4k Beastman?
SilasLunark: @TheWanderingNomad You need to watch foundation now
itira:
TheWanderingNomad:
Noted 
TXC2: go look up the cover art of Warhammer Quest, that's what Sigmar looks like
kaffeetrinken89: Why is their official pronounciation so garbage? If you steal german words please dont mangle them, GW. Argh!
ArtDecoSunburn: He's come a long way from "Halt and Catch Fire" for sure.
boy151 subscribed with Prime. They've subscribed for 31 months!
LRRbot:
Thanks for subscribing, boy151! (Today's storm count: 7)
TheWanderingNomad:
@kaffeetrinken89 It's a Utican pronunciation
SilasLunark: Also latest season with the beard and hairs
jadielady: hey y'all
Invitare: as opposed to strolling undead hosts
ArtDecoSunburn: Middenheim traditionally has rivalries with Ostland, Nordland, Talbecland, and the barons of Salzenmund.
TXC2: hello jadielady welcome
TXC2: who is this Tod he is bringing?
kaffeetrinken89: @TXC2 I am also wondering. He has to be a very scary guy.
Whisle: Mr. Howard ?
TXC2:
Tod Flanders? 
TheMerricat: "Todbringer translates literally from German as "death bringer" (derived from Tod meaning "death" and bringer meaning "bringer")."
TheWanderingNomad: @Whisle Do not speak his name lest you summon him!
silenceaux: Has anyone ever seen the true face of Tod?
ArtDecoSunburn: Todbringer becomes emperor in "Empire in Flames," after Karl Franz is revealed as a gibbering idiot possessed by chaos.
SilasLunark: He's footman for now
Whisle:
@TheWanderingNomad 
BorgarWithAShotgun: He is Wulf.
TXC2: TheMerricat that's really funny
SilasLunark: Do we wanna bring our hero?
Darleysam: OH it's a reference to Yogscast Tom
ArtDecoSunburn: Ohh, the Drakwald.
Nathade: But with this pronunciation he is really just bringing Todd and not death
Earthenone: we are in the combination midden and drakwald?
TXC2: Skaven, the Tyranids of the old world?
Mai_Andra: We're in the combination Middenland/Drakwald...
Invitare: @TXC2 they're usually compared to the Imperium
Invitare: specifically the guard
SilasLunark: Hes a druidy mage
TXC2: Invitare I thought the Empire was the Imperial guard ?
PenguinoRojo: select the hero, right click on army, hit the big blue button to merge them
BorgarWithAShotgun: @TXC2 weirdly enough more like the Ork. Dakka, just do not leave, a lot of remaking your body.
ArtDecoSunburn: Do the Total Warhammer games use color magic?
PenguinoRojo: @ArtDecoSunburn More or less
Just_Herby: You can't attack because Emil had no movement left
BorgarWithAShotgun: @Just_Herby no, he can.
SilasLunark: We have tons of movement
malsareus: go to the battle controls in the settings
ArtDecoSunburn: @TXC2 It's a riff on the 16th century Holy Roman Empire.
Just_Herby: Yeah I'm an idiot, sorry
Micalovits: He sure has plenty of movement, just need to right click not left xD
TXC2: ArtDecoSunburn oh I know
SilasLunark: I would clap
TXC2: oh Skaven are Ad Mech! now it all falls into place
BorgarWithAShotgun: Autoresolve aka "TAke about 3 times the casuality"
SilasLunark: They rebalanced auto resolve so on normal its way less punishing
SilasLunark: On very hard its a tax tho
ashtonfpd: i like cameron and his jokes are good
silenceaux: Grandmaster tactical micromanagement
BorgarWithAShotgun: yeah, and they can also somehow shoot through a lot of towers.
TheMyrdin:
When the AI uses Cavalry: I lose. When I use Cavalry: I lose my all my cavalry 
Micalovits: They have made the AI actually play differently in battle depending on difficulty now, so it only feels abusive like that on very hard
ArtDecoSunburn: Well, formations like that are more late 17th/18th century. The age of geometric warfare.
malsareus: that's more of a paradox kinda game I think
malsareus: and some rat ogres
ArtDecoSunburn: It's funny. The Middenheimers are the closest Brandenburg/Prussia faction equivalent, but the league of Ostermark is geographically where Prussia would be on the map.
Invitare: why they so shiny
Invitare: oh the shining has stopped
Micalovits: Yea, the very first battle is a tutorial - you might not get it on hard?
brieandbacon: *click*
BorgarWithAShotgun: ARBAAL THE UNDEFEATED!!!!
TheMyrdin: "Archwizard of the Moonbase ready to devastate the enemy!"
JKBalch: Hello
BorgarWithAShotgun: P for Pause or Pause for Pee?
ArtDecoSunburn: @TheMyrdin If you had to divide up LRR staff among Warhammer color magic, how would they fall?
TXC2: hello JKBalch welcome
Micalovits: Fun fact: fighting from the highground does give you bonuses!
Micalovits: They had an article a year or so ago on just how complicated the system is
SilasLunark: Its wild how granular it is
Earthenone: does it have the be terrain based, or does the moral highground also confer bonusus?
Strebenherz:
@Earthenone 
SilasLunark: Tutogen guard are absolute monsters its wild you start with them
TheMyrdin:
@ArtDecoSunburn That's a great question. I think I don't know enough about the colors of Magic or LRR to answer well enough 
Micalovits: @SilasLunark You usually get to start with 1-2 fun units
pressptopausetopee: <--I had to do this
Strebenherz: @TheMyrdin Dimir Kathleen or the Warhammer equivalent
SilasLunark: Oh for sure but like they are essentially dwarven hammerers
SilasLunark: Kathleen is definitely shadow magic
TXC2: Dear Devs: NO OVERLAPPING VOICES!
SilasLunark: Or hag magic
noSmokeFire: ogres _are_ pretty rad
pressptopausetopee: In the name of the Wolf I shall Punish you
ArtDecoSunburn: (Pushes up glasses) "Um, actually, in original lore, Middenheim and Middenland were separate electoral provinces."
SilasLunark: Yeah threat from below (skaven unit summons) are so annoying for artillery
TheMyrdin: @Strebenherz Kathleen would use the black wind of death or the one for shadows. Alex and Ian maybe lore of metal?
ArtDecoSunburn: Middenheim was an independent city state in the original lore. It later got retconned.
TXC2: a city big enough to be a state, a city state, if you will
noSmokeFire: is Middenheim named for middens? like, a trash heap?
TheMerricat:
@noSmokeFire That's the joke. 
PenguinoRojo: they are just out for a jog
kaffeetrinken89: Middenheimer sounds like a beer ^^
TheMyrdin: @noSmokeFire The Empire is loosely based on germany. I think it's the middle lands
TXC2: noSmokeFire I just assumed it's meant to mean middle, just changed a bit
ArtDecoSunburn: Original lore had three independent city states: Middenheim, Nuln, Talabheim. And there were four non-count religious electors, Ar Ulric, the Grand Theoginist, and two Sigmarite lectors. And the Moot was its own vote.
ArtDecoSunburn: Hisme Stouthart was the elector.
SilasLunark: You never under any circumstances have to hand it to the Br*tish
Invitare: too late, we're not giving it back
TheMyrdin: Your losses were pretty small I'd say
Invitare: it's going in a museum
silenceaux: About a 1:5 losses ratio, in your favour.
BrowneePointz: You do enjoy taking unearned things and putting them in museums
TXC2: we'll give it back at a politically opportune time
TheMerricat:
Keeping Skavin captives? that seems like a GREAT idea.
TheMyrdin: RELEASING Skaven? What a terrible idea
Earthenone: who would pay for a skaven captive?
Invitare: honestly releasing Skaven captives is likely to do more damage to the Skaven
BrowneePointz: Depends on Skaven caste tbh
Whisle:
I love watching this game. It looks so gorgeous! Can't get into the battles myself sadly so i always auto resolve 
Micalovits: A different clan - they need slaves!
TheMyrdin: The Skaven are as confused as us
kaffeetrinken89: Certainly not a skaven. They know what they are worth.
pressptopausetopee: why are you here-back?
ArtDecoSunburn: One thing that always annoyed me about original Warhammer writing was how ridiculous Altdorf was. The real HRE never had a fixed capital. It was not like Paris or London in a centralizing state.
TXC2:
kaffeetrinken89 Skaven need a union
pressptopausetopee: not even a proper Tech-Tree
TheMyrdin:
TheMyrdin: Time to read and do math for 20 minutes
dimirious: Let's geht pottery 4h into the stream.
Whisle: Silos are BASICALLY pottery
SilasLunark: I love how queek has managed to gain a reputation for having some magic power to control his armies and its just that he betrays them less
pressptopausetopee: @dimirious Stream Goal: Build Tier 3 Pottery Building
TheMyrdin: A grain silo is like a REALLY big pot
EvilBadman: This tech tree should read "only war"
SilasLunark: Always love casualty replenishment and movement
dolphgrim: A skele-snake, perhaps.
wholsometiger: To be fair, you absolutely killed it even without pottery.
TXC2: I question the use of the word "missiles" but all right
ArtDecoSunburn: @TXC2 I love that in the lore, as an early modern setting, proto-trade unions are seen as Tzeentichian plots to undermine the Empire.
Invitare: grain silos for keeping out the rats has a different meaning in Warhammer
AugmentingPath: @EvilBadman nah, in the grim dark future there's only war. For now there are also other things
ArtDecoSunburn: Hochland was the odd province out.
TXC2: ArtDecoSunburn ha, gotta keep that Feudalism going
kaffeetrinken89: @TXC2 Maybe. I doubt they would be able to understand the concept.
ArtDecoSunburn: Yes,Marienburg broke off the empire. It's Amsterdam.
SilasLunark: Elspeth gets some reallt bonkers buffs to gunpowder units and black hole grenadiers
TXC2: whose their John Calvin? can we kill him?
AugmentingPath: The Great Hamburger State of Marienburg
Earthenone: so our first diplomacy is with an isolationist?
BrowneePointz: Speaking of Skaven, I hope that Skaven Metroidvania coming out next year turns out good
Marsclas: click those, they will just show you the available optiions
kaffeetrinken89: rude
ArtDecoSunburn: In the Grand Theogonist's chapel in Altdorf, a stained glass window still contains former imperial province of Westerland and novitiates light candles daily for reunification with Marienburg.
TheMyrdin: being BFFs with the elves is probably a good idea
dimirious: Damn
ArtDecoSunburn: Is Emmanuelle Liebowitz still Countess of Nuln in this game?
TXC2:
TheMyrdin worked great for the dwarfs
kaffeetrinken89:
Why not a better lover?
SilasLunark: Yeah because of the way reputation works it takes a couple turns to trend upwards
kaijuknight428: Movement range is also good
TXC2: how often is he getting into combat?
ArtDecoSunburn: @kaffeetrinken89 Speaking of Emmanuelle Liebowitz . . .
TheMyrdin:
@TXC2 
SilasLunark: 75 is kinda ok for context it takes 1100 experience to get a chevron per unit
ArtDecoSunburn: Are there temples to Verena in this game?
ArtDecoSunburn: Wisdom.
ArtDecoSunburn: She was Athena, essentially.
Mangledpixel: Wisdom? nah, we don't need any of that
SilasLunark: How big is the garrison on the city
SilasLunark: I always build growth or money first
TheMyrdin: More food is great, so your town doesn't stay a tiny dump forever
ArtDecoSunburn: I remember the Carrobourg great swords in the Battle Masters board game.
SilasLunark: Second tab at the bottom
TheMyrdin: bigger town = better garrison
Micalovits: Upgrading the first building unlocks more slots and higher tiers - requires growth
Micalovits: Which is on the far left
SilasLunark: Yeah thats fine for now
SilasLunark: Its also got walls
SilasLunark: Which counts for a lot
TheMyrdin: @SilasLunark Oh it has walls even at this stage?
ArtDecoSunburn: Do we have to worry about Averland trying to snipe our territory?
Micalovits: @ArtDecoSunburn Trust me, the rest of the empire has plenty of shit to deal with
Marsclas: guns are fun!
TheMyrdin: I don't like cav. I usually get guns for the flanks to shoot their cav
SilasLunark: I like growth personally but I respect unit variety
SilasLunark: Excellent eat your veggies choice
SilasLunark: It will pay off
MDHWrites: @SilasLunark My favorite faction is high elfs so I do not understand this concept. Isn't all you need a thousand archers?
Micalovits: And a staunch line of spears!
ArtDecoSunburn: @Micalovits Half the fun of the HRE is local potentates foolishly invading their neighbors despite shared foes.
Mangledpixel: love a good torc
TXC2: every now and again you do need some Dragonknights
SilasLunark: @MDHWrites I see you are also a person of staunch lines of spears
Mangledpixel: much more practical than a crown
Marsclas: its a spell
SilasLunark: So skaven can summon clan rats based on the local area skaven corruption level
SilasLunark: Basically get charges per 20 corruption
TXC2: Gods I miss initiative
Mangledpixel: ooh that's cool
Datnade012: was Fantasy fun to play? i've only done 40k
tyrsredritehand: Don't charge the Tetsudo.
SilasLunark: Beside their panel they have a small circle
Datnade012: oh wow
Micalovits: Modern 40k has come a long long way
SilasLunark: It shows the charges o believe
TXC2: YMMV
Earthenone: i was so cursed when i played tabletop, i had tzneech heavy knights 0+ armor 4+ ward and they died every time they charged goblins before making contact
Micalovits: There is a reason that fans of the game got annoyed and made their own version of fantasy after GW killed xD
SilasLunark: Yeah so that means they have baseline 1 charge
Mangledpixel: and then you played Warhammer
SilasLunark: +1 for corruption
ArtDecoSunburn: @Datnade012 The rank and file is just a different sensibility. You feel like a general.
ArtDecoSunburn: Great flags in Fantasy.
Mai_Andra: "I want your army to do the thing it does."
PenguinoRojo: get the square trays to easily move the units around
SilasLunark: You super got this
PenguinoRojo: Then decorate them to match the bases
Mushbie: skaven outnumber you on days that end with y
SilasLunark: Also don't forget to use your magic
Mangledpixel: "We await your hors d'oeuvres!"
Datnade012: @ArtDecoSunburn Huh, thats interesting, maybe ill look into Old World
Marsclas: no
PenguinoRojo: keep gunners near by?
Micalovits: Sure aint friend! But they are just rats
AugmentingPath: Nope, they generally summon next to your most vulnerable artillery
Micalovits: 90%
Marsclas: high
SilasLunark: Put like one unit of spears on them
Marsclas: xD
SilasLunark: No limits
Krektogar: odds are about "yes"
TXC2: the only thing that outnumbers the Skaven are the Dead, and the Dead are to tired to beat the Skaven
SilasLunark: Pretty high
gsyhiap: Is some of the VA by Brian Blessed? Sure sounds like it
kaffeetrinken89: When I started getting into Warhammer plastic was expensive. Now the prices are so degenerate I am not sure if getting out of the hobby would be the correct move.
dimirious: You Just have to walk without a steady rythm.
SilasLunark: Yeah you just need a very basic guard
SilasLunark: Summoned clan rrats have very bad leadership
LRRbot:

Wolfstrike_NL: @gsyhiap It was so mentioned when we picked a faction earlier yes
SilasLunark: Basically any real resistance folds them up immediately
Earthenone: think that spell is enough to scare off any burrowing rats who aproach the cannonade?
TXC2: wouldn't that just make more of them?
SilasLunark: I like it
TheMerricat: Asking chat.
TXC2: !advice
LRRbot: You can put items in the toilet.
TheMyrdin:
Yes
kaffeetrinken89:
Just normal game dog appreciation behaviour.
ContingentCat: !goodadvice
LRRbot: At this time of year?
ArtDecoSunburn: Did anyone else play "Battle Masters" from Milton Bradley? Remember the Mighty Cannon mechanic for the Empire side? You flipped tiles from a stack until the bouncing cannonball exploded.
SilasLunark: They have baseline 1 charge and +1 for corruption
Micalovits: They might have 2 charges beware
SilasLunark: Should still be fine
Mangledpixel: "Screw that one dude in particular"
SilasLunark: Your warrior of sigmar have great anti infantry so they will munch clanrats
gualdhar: incredibly effective artillery milord
TXC2: "the horses can't hurt us if we don't acknowledge them"
SilasLunark: Yeah the ai could see your artillery was defended so it summoned elsewhere
SilasLunark: Its not like totally dumb
A_Dub888: Good morning friends, how total has been the war?
SilasLunark: So far mostly fighting rats
TXC2: hello A_Dub888 this is our...3rd battle I think
TheMyrdin: @A_Dub888 this is the 2nd fight he's been in
TheWanderingNomad: @SilasLunark I mean it's Skaven - it could literally go either way depending on the day
TheMyrdin: Spears will never beat horses
SilasLunark: At least this guy cant nuke us
ArtDecoSunburn: @SilasLunark Such is life in the Empire. Warring against a foe that officially doesn't even exist according to the authorities.
TheMyrdin:
Engaged? Omg congratulations! 
SilasLunark: Oh sick you folded him upneasy
SilasLunark: Thats it lord death basically flattens rats
ArtDecoSunburn: @TheMyrdin The ring is made of warpstone!
TheMerricat:
TheMyrdin: @ArtDecoSunburn you can use it as a night light!
AugmentingPath: Try not to send Cav into Spears
TXC2: the superior tactic of had guns
SilasLunark: Rats, ogres, vamps basically just kill the lord and they implode
TheMyrdin: @SilasLunark don't forget tomb kings
ArtDecoSunburn: @TheMyrdin Ha! And it self-resizes as your hand mutates.
SilasLunark: Tomb Kings have the special underlords
SilasLunark: So they stay a lot longer
SilasLunark: Also constructs don't care
TheMyrdin: tru
SilasLunark: Haha its a settlement battle once you win they all die
Invitare: there will always be more Skaven
TXC2: they did get surrounded
SilasLunark: Those cavalry are really reliant on charge bonus
Micalovits: They did take a bunch of slinger fire
Marsclas: they had spears, so they are anti-large
SilasLunark: Which lasts 15 seconds
TheMerricat: I think being bit in the butt by the summons was a detriment.
SilasLunark: They soaked all the summons
TheMyrdin: spears beat cavalry
thedepthandbreadthofseth: Hi @loadingreadyrun Cam. Everyone, please don't lick the horses
AugmentingPath: Cav is better into swords and archers, spears counter them. Also yeah, you have to micro them to make them charge properly
SilasLunark: They will heal
ArtDecoSunburn: Does this version of the game have the silly but delightful steam tanks?
SilasLunark: @ArtDecoSunburn And landships
TheMyrdin: @SilasLunark it's a learning experience for them
Marsclas: they weren't engaged, so they turned to face them
SilasLunark: Its fine aha
thedepthandbreadthofseth: Who are you playing, Cameron?
TXC2: thedepthandbreadthofseth empire
ArtDecoSunburn: @SilasLunark From Marienburg? Neat.
SilasLunark: @thedepthandbreadthofseth ITS FOOKIN TODDY
Earthenone: you lost 99 they lost 1780, i disagree with the games assesment of "close" victory
PenguinoRojo: We did a thing just over that hill, behind those trees. it was really cool, trust us
ArtDecoSunburn: @TXC2 Middenheim.
SilasLunark: Also those cannons did work good position
SilasLunark: Cam this game slaps
A_Dub888: @TXC2 how tolerant of heresy are they compared to that /other/ empire?
TXC2: A_Dub888 not very
SilasLunark: They did so much work to make this dlc a banger
Micalovits: @A_Dub888 A bit more but still very anti chaos
Micalovits: Less hatred of other races and weird religions
thedepthandbreadthofseth: Heim means home, and a midden is a communal garbage pile... so we're playing as the US?
TheMerricat:
Fanatasy Warhammer, 4x game. Cameron Lauder likes it? 
SilasLunark: That wizard is just a buff sadly but you can get a wizard flavour later
TheMyrdin: You'll get to choose from a couple of the flavors
SilasLunark: Need a building at t3 for that
TXC2: Empire is German Renaissance, Imperium is German middle ages IN SPACE!
SilasLunark: 3 more turns yeah
Micalovits: Yea, he is a small battery for an educated wizard
ArtDecoSunburn: The dwarves are interesting in Warhammer because their religion is intertwined with Sigmar. There's slight coding of dwarves as pseudo-Jews of the Warhammer world.
SilasLunark: Yeah he's a wizard intern working for exposure
SilasLunark: We gotta get these rats outa here
SilasLunark: Oh man you would enjoy high elf batman
thedepthandbreadthofseth: @TXC2 Imperium is also extremely late German industrial... like, the bit right at the beginning of electronics and rocketry. That Germany.
ArtDecoSunburn: High elves were Byzantine in style, right?
ArtDecoSunburn: @thedepthandbreadthofseth Fantasy "Renaissance."
TXC2:
thedepthandbreadthofseth YEAP
SilasLunark: THAT GOES IN THE BOOJ
ArtDecoSunburn: Grungi was one of a pair of gods, I think?
Simbionis: Oh that's a grudge right there
Micalovits: Into the book!
Whisle: New book, just for you
PenguinoRojo: do you Read the books?
Micalovits: And then they shot the elf with a cannon
silenceaux: Could fill a book with things Elves don't know. And in fact...
SilasLunark: Oh Cameron they added grudges into the dwarf faction and you get to use it to summon revenge forces
TXC2: "you guys can read? that's great!" BANG! Bang bang bang
Krektogar: dwarves don't have books. they have "The Book"
ArtDecoSunburn: Somehow the dwarves became slightly Scottish in GW ads.

ArtDecoSunburn: @Krektogar Again, the "people of the book" metaphor. Exiled from their homeland. Matrilineal. Live in ghettos in imperial cities.

ContingentCat: foot on the head is quite the power move
Mai_Andra: the old "boot to the head" for morale
TXC2: depends on the boot, and whose foots in it
SilasLunark: Yeah definitely most Ulrich troops are largely melee
WookieCookie64: Melee Defense, Ward, and Melee Attack are probably the biggest go-to.
ArtDecoSunburn: Is the Elector of Averland in this game the old lady countess or or the Mad Leitdorf guy?
SilasLunark: Especially early game empires finest is just a lot of value
SilasLunark: @ArtDecoSunburn Its leitdorf
SilasLunark: That was the one you took
mckblitz: After several thousand hours I also take the melee defence
Marsclas: yeah, getting more melee defense is always good
MDHWrites: I'm often greedy and focus on the bottom tree myself
ArtDecoSunburn: @SilasLunark Okay. So this is set after the "Empire in Chaos" revisions. When the provinces got reset.
SilasLunark: Basically I always take movement range first and then everything else
Earthenone: is that our druid?
MDHWrites: @SilasLunark Big same. Let me get things done faster.
SilasLunark: Hes an ulric priest
SilasLunark: So battle priest
SilasLunark: Those are map actions
SilasLunark: Increase mobility is huge tho
AugmentingPath: Increase Mobility is a passive that effects the army while the guy's in it
Micalovits: Yea, blue ones are all map related (two far left ones still do things when in an army)
SilasLunark: Sure is
TheMyrdin: Yep the entire army
SilasLunark: Fair fair
TXC2: !break
LRRbot: Remember chat, break time for the streamer means break time for YOU, so unclench, get up, stretch, walk about a bit, and maybe refresh your drink, take your meds, or go to the toilet if you need to. Don't forget to wash your hands!
MDHWrites: Good job Cameron. You have gotten me to boot this game back up after two and a half years away from it.
SilasLunark: I adore this game but it works my GPU too hard so I have to play it sparingly
MDHWrites: I am curious if this might actually be the first time I'm playing it since getting a solid state drive for my games. It uh... it loads SLOW on a hard disk ^^;
Lysander_salamander: hello everyone
Lysander_salamander: oh, Total Warhammer
SilasLunark: @MDHWrites Sure does i bought a nvme specifically for it
Lysander_salamander: Did they release the skaven dlc yet?
TXC2: hello Lysander_salamander welcome
SilasLunark: @Lysander_salamander Sure did
SilasLunark: Thanquol is great
Lysander_salamander: neat
TXC2: and we're back
SilasLunark: Doing well, cough drop is helping
TheMyrdin: You like it so far? That's great!
ContingentCat: a kite got loose here and is living it's best life above the buildings
SilasLunark: I think you can afford a turn of recruiting and healing
TheMyrdin: It's just a ruin. Unless there are Skaven in there
TXC2:
Middenstag, the empire word for "incel"
AugmentingPath: only Skaven can hide in ruins
SilasLunark: Oh hey its karl
Micalovits: I am sure Festus is a friend
SilasLunark: Also Dr Festus PHD
TheMyrdin: Festus is having fun spreading the gifts of Nurgle, like a rancid Santa Clause
SilasLunark: Your opinion is trending up
TheMyrdin: He'll like you more when you're stronger
SilasLunark: It will get better with time
SilasLunark: You can recruit from any province
DoodlestheGreat: Recruit Five Units - Put out a sign that reads "FREE BEER."
SilasLunark: Click on army
SilasLunark: First tab at bottom
SilasLunark: Yeah always good to get the province capital upgraded
SilasLunark: Better slot options
unbanjitte: Hello cameron!
TXC2: hello unbanjitte welcome
SilasLunark: Festus is definitely a bit of a local raid boss
TheMyrdin: is it equipped automatically or do you have to put it on yourself?
TheMyrdin: oh no!
TheMyrdin: but it also means free land for us
gergorg: its Toddy!
TheMyrdin: go make sure he doesn't snatch up Middenstag?
unbanjitte:
I'm actually building some intercessors rn and i saw LRR was streaming warhammer 
TheMyrdin: the curvy line is your movement range, the straight line is the county borders
SilasLunark: We can do another turn of recruit even outside a city as long as we are inside our borders
unbanjitte: the new sculpts are cool
TXC2: unbanjitte got a chapter you're planing for? or just generic?
unbanjitte: i have about 3k points of dark angels
TheMyrdin: if you march you can get there this turn, and that makes your army winded
unbanjitte: i just wanted the new ones
TXC2: unbanjitte ooo nice
SilasLunark: 10 growth is quite good
unbanjitte: excited to paint the big back banner
TheMyrdin: they're all going up
unbanjitte: Last Year at Marienburg
TXC2: that's a BIG cobweb
SilasLunark: Festus is a bit of a nightmare in PvP aha
TheMyrdin: @SilasLunark I have never PvP'd what makes him so terrible there?
gnyrinn: Todbringer??? I forgot how unsubtle Warhammer can be.
SilasLunark: Oh he has crazy healing/harm aura that he can toggle at will
SilasLunark: He absolutely shreds low tier infantry
TheMyrdin: uh oh
SilasLunark: Oh nice well fighting
SilasLunark: Still decisive if we wanna take the auto
AugmentingPath: nah you've got this (probably)
TheMyrdin: a regular human guy is worth 10 skaven
SilasLunark: Auto is valid if you are tired of fighting rats
TheMyrdin: acn you look at the battle map first?
TheMyrdin: *can
AugmentingPath: the bottom left button shows the map
SilasLunark: Bottom left battle menu little compass icon
TheMyrdin: leftmost button
AugmentingPath: The little compass thing
TheMyrdin: brown is depression, bright is hill
SilasLunark: Yeah just open field you can do this
TXC2: seems they have the hill
TheMyrdin: hard to shoot accurately into the woods
SilasLunark: How many charges they have
SilasLunark: Oh zero
SilasLunark: Only magic
mckblitz: Hell yeah brother
SilasLunark: Yeah warp lightning hurts
TXC2: snatching defeat from the jaws of victory
SilasLunark: But yeah skaven slaves literally give negative auto resolve so that should tell you how they stack up
AugmentingPath: oops! all trash
SilasLunark: I think they have 16/16 attack defence
SilasLunark: They have one by default
SilasLunark: Just no bonus
TheMyrdin: I think I'd clump up in the open field and hide some cav and guys in the trees on the right to ambush their slingers and sweep up the trash? I'm pretty bad at the battles tho, so don't take that as advice lmao
AugmentingPath: cannons in lumberjacking mode
SilasLunark: Oh hey you can fire out of trees without issue
SilasLunark: Theres a grace period
AugmentingPath: @SilasLunark I don't think that's true for arty, just archers
SilasLunark: Lmao oh yeah
TheMyrdin: Bomb the cliff and make the statue fall down on the skavens
TXC2: TheMyrdin I don't think physics works that way
A_Dub888: @TXC2 not with that attitude
AugmentingPath:
@SilasLunark see this is why we don't hire wood elf siege engineers
TheMyrdin:
@TXC2 Imagine if it worked tho 
But yeah they would probs have to rebuild the engine lol
WookieCookie64: Uh, if you hold shift, with the option to see range cones, you can, I think.
A_Dub888: someone had a bad time
Jamming_with_Jandalf: sworded!?
TXC2:
who killed an elder god?
gsyhiap: Just a flesh wound
mckblitz: woods stuff
AugmentingPath: #dungeonentrancecore

brieandbacon: It doesn't seem terrible
brieandbacon: (I have never played this game)
kaffeetrinken89: Looks good. I dont know anything about that game, but it looks good.
SilasLunark: Not terrible
brieandbacon: Your reasoning feels solid
TXC2: my only worry is our left flank, but we take the right, so it should even out
SilasLunark: There is a penalty for fighting uphill but its not awful
gsyhiap: No idea, I couldn't warhammer my way out of a wet paper bag
SilasLunark: Toddy loves giving speeches
Invitare: I prefer the taste of southern steel
Dog_of_Myth:
TXC2: dang their whole army moved right
AugmentingPath: now that's what I call tactical maneuvering
SilasLunark: Warp lightning is such a powerful spell
A_Dub888: micruber
satyropodobny: active pause champ
SilasLunark: Grey seers are dicks
SilasLunark: You are going to roll over them in combat
AugmentingPath: nah, I think you just have to engage because you're not winning the long-range game, you're still fine
SilasLunark: Especially with battle priest buffs
TheMyrdin: they're still just Skaven slaves
TXC2: not yet, Skaven are SUPER comminted to the right flank
LRRbot:
If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Named clips with no autocaptions are preferred but not required!)
AugmentingPath: might want to hit those archers with your cav
TXC2:
is Boris a Pokemon the way he keeps saying his name?
Jamming_with_Jandalf: ah, "deathbringer" apparently sounds more badass, if shouted in german?
AugmentingPath: you often need to knight's move a bit: pull the out to the side, then move them forward toward your target, otherwise they got caught up
SilasLunark: Yeah you can hit J on the keyboard to disengage with calvary
SilasLunark: Its a useful thing
SilasLunark: Yeah they do not explain keybinds
kaffeetrinken89: Just like on reddit. Just use /j to disengage.
TheMyrdin:
@kaffeetrinken89 
macbody2: Who has the warhammer?
SilasLunark: They can go have a lil nap
TheMyrdin: It's better that they route instead of getting completely smashed
SilasLunark: @macbody2 He's not appearing in this picture
TXC2: macbody2 Sigmar I think
AugmentingPath: @SilasLunark keybinds are only for people who've playing total war for 20 years, no deep tutorials for new players
gsyhiap: They've been shouting too much, they're a little horse
MAPBoardgames: Totalwarhammer
TheMyrdin: The infantry is quite scattered
A_Dub888: "Sigmar calls! He wants to inform you about your car's extended warranty!"
SilasLunark: @AugmentingPath I mean very specifically the disengage key is pretty useful for making calvary work
SilasLunark: Yeah they are breaking
TheMyrdin: get cav'd idiot
AugmentingPath: @SilasLunark oh, yeah, there's a bunch of them that should be explained (like moving armies forward in formation with ALT)
MAPBoardgames: We accept cash, card, and blood
mckblitz: Only note would be that wizards dont like cannon balls much
TheMyrdin: don't worry, this has been a learning experience
SilasLunark: Hey learning!
brieandbacon: They had the weather gauge, it's fine
gsyhiap: A win's a win
RathmoreTV: You are feeling very GreySeen right now?
TXC2: Cav pulled their WHOLE army, I think some good was done
TheMyrdin: 50% losses means 50% victory!
SilasLunark: Honestly just making a nice three sided box with shields at the front and walking in would work there
QuixoticScrivener: We can save scum, if we want…
SilasLunark: Nawh we stand on that
macbody2: Hears rumors that The Lion would show up! Can't wait!
TheMyrdin: oh beastmen
silenceaux: I do appreciate the rematch option, but I also appreciate taking the lumps and moving on.
SilasLunark: And now the campaign mechanic kick in
TheMyrdin: @macbody2 The Primarch might show up in Old World???
AugmentingPath: ooh, neat. I think that's Todd-specific UI?
TXC2:
the wolf goes were the pack tells the wolf to go
macbody2: @TheMyrdin I was kidding. Read somewhere, that The Lion would show up in one of the games. Although he is the most AoS primarch....
SilasLunark: Basically spend fervour to unlock stuff in the temple
Micalovits: Naaaah
TheMyrdin: No
SilasLunark: Get fervour from killing bad dudes
TheMyrdin: N is for Nagash
TXC2: the rumour round our way was that the old world was where Horus was from
Mai_Andra: The Fonze? "A"
TXC2:
Mai_Andra booooo
SilasLunark: Set items are so fun
TXC2: a brand new Mustang!
brieandbacon: @TXC2 Get out
AugmentingPath: g'bye g'naw
TheMyrdin: where are the beastmen mustering?
WookieCookie64: When is the last time that Cam Total Warred?
SilasLunark: Theres a white beacon somewhere
TheMyrdin: Oh it's Laurelon's problem
Meltalar: Cam touched Grass. for a long time

dimirious: So you're saying you pioneered touched grass?
brieandbacon: You're getting paid? Must be nice
macbody2: (gotta update the description?)
mckblitz: Sold out to big workshop
TheMyrdin: 500 eurodollars
kristian_fischer: There's an "ad" tag in the description. i'd say we're fine.
TXC2: how in do you have to be first for it be selling out?
TheMyrdin: EVERYONE is in TWW3
AugmentingPath: Sure are! They have a big toothy hole in the ground on the world map and everything
Micalovits: Every single full faction is here!
SilasLunark: Oh there are so many ogres
Micalovits: Only thing really missing would be Dogs of War
SilasLunark: Theres one Ogre LL in nordland I believe
TheMyrdin: they're big hungry boys
macbody2: @kristian_fischer That is a real danish name ..... hey ven!
TXC2: Essex?
SilasLunark: Theres an amazing trailer
SilasLunark: They have an eating song
TheMyrdin: ^
Micalovits: @macbody2 Dozens of us! Dozens!
brieandbacon: Estuary-Essex, or Country-Essex?
TheMyrdin: you should see the trailer
SilasLunark: Think cockney Mongolian
mckblitz: Its actually a banger
macbody2: @Micalovits dusiner!
SilasLunark: Yeah good choice
SilasLunark: Helps avoid awkward wars
mckblitz: I think glogfag is on your northern border actually
SilasLunark: With permission ill post the link to the trailer
TXC2: SilasLunark yeah thats fine
TheMyrdin:
@mckblitz excuse me? 
SilasLunark: 1000% route marcher
lawnmowerelves: Marcher is always good
Marsclas: have two points
TheMyrdin: more speed = more good
SilasLunark: @TheMyrdin Yeah his name is... a choice
satyropodobny: extra dials for calling more elector counts
mckblitz: @TheMyrdin Its either not what it sounds like or exactly what it sounds like

TXC2: !uptime
LRRbot: The stream has been live for 2:39:20.
TheMyrdin: @SilasLunark "Weeee're gonna GET YA!"
SilasLunark: Love new battle prayers
SilasLunark: Control gives growth bonuses when higher
SilasLunark: So good to invest it
TheMyrdin: @SilasLunark Someone should make a mod where you can call him that once, and he gets uncomfortable and leaves you alone for 10 turns
SilasLunark: @TheMyrdin He nose better
SilasLunark: Lmao
TXC2:
what does a wood elf need gold for ?
TheMyrdin: xD
mckblitz: They also value joining their wars
SilasLunark: Yeah like usually turn 5 to 10 you can do your first deals
TheMyrdin: @mckblitz so let the beastmen muster in Laurelorn, and then promise to go fight them?
SilasLunark: Some stuff happens before the game starts! There's like pre history
SilasLunark: Based on factions history
mckblitz: @TheMyrdin havent tried that one!
TheMyrdin:
I'm sure Festus will leave us alone forever
SilasLunark: Yeah festus is spooky Halloween mini boss waiting for us
SilasLunark: I love these new festivals
TheMyrdin: this is fun!
SilasLunark: They added a bunch of new rpg style evenrs
SilasLunark: Makes the world feel very alive
SilasLunark: Seems reasonable
SilasLunark: Its a more pressing threat
TXC2: !next
LRRbot: Next scheduled stream: LRRMTG (It's the show where at least 1 LRR crew member plays some form of digital Magic: The Gathering. Game: Magic: The Gathering) at Wed 01:00 PM PDT (12m from now).
SilasLunark: Never hate having more defences in the capital
SilasLunark: Our borders feel very pourous with the beastman attacks
TXC2: Turns out Cameron might be good at 4X games
A_Dub888: you're great
SilasLunark: You can thank total war for that, gw used it to fill out the roster
AugmentingPath: sadly they're too isolationist to let you go fix their problems for them, I think
silenceaux: Why not let it be their problem for a turn?
SilasLunark: Yeahhh we might have to let it spawn and come at us
SilasLunark: That and cathay
TheMyrdin: we could let it be their problem. If you declare war on the beastmen the wood elves will like you more
kakmize: But Elves are always so reasonable.
SilasLunark: IIRC the beastman will beeline you
AugmentingPath: Yeah, they haven't spawned in yet
TheMyrdin: they haven't mustered yet have they?
SilasLunark: So you can let them come to you
SilasLunark: We might wanna get some more units tho I dont think we have a full stack
AugmentingPath: Nordland appears to be Ogres now
SilasLunark: Nordland fell down some stairs
TXC2:
so Nordland is free real estate you're saying?
silenceaux: Kinda horrifying tbh
SilasLunark: And into an ogres mouth
SilasLunark: Ogres can eat rocks for nourishment. They eat sentients for the fun of it
AugmentingPath: Golg and Festus are both big boy factions, so it might be good to deal with the Brayherd before starting war with either
TXC2: surely rocks are for gizzards?
Voidhawk42: I see that LRMtG is next on the schedule. Arena is down for at least the next hour for maintenance, is there some other kind of thing happening?
tyrsredritehand: Like featherless cassowary?
TXC2: Voidhawk42 MtGO is a thing
SilasLunark: Fair! Fun stream tho
TXC2: thanks for streaming Cameron
AugmentingPath: Fair enough. Thanks very much for the stream, it was great fun to see you play some total warhams
Marsclas: you can try fighting the green skins at the black pit, they are at war with Laurelorn and would improve your relation with them
SilasLunark: I hope we can return to this sometime
Invitare: unless you've been playing the long game, and you're actually a consummate liar
Marsclas: it was a great stream to watch!
TXC2: it's a natural venn diagram
TheMadChicken: god that name is such a miss, and I get it, branding and such
SilasLunark: I didnt 100% total war warhammer 2 what are you talking about
TheMadChicken: but god it should have just been total warhammer
Manae: Sounds like my wife and accounting
ContingentCat: I'm glad you're a bad liar then
TXC2: Cameron Launder is a name you'd never hear until he was 55 and running for governor
TXC2: "so what are you thinking right now?"
