It's the simple things like good quality thumbnails that make this channel so good. I feel like not enough people appreciate or notice them so I wanted to specifically point them out.
4 роки тому+67
Thank you. That means so much more than you know. :-D
I've always really enjoyed the faction overviews. And you're absolutely right, each 'series' of overviews have great thumbnails. They seem to get better each time too.
Man i can't wait to struggle with installing version 4 for hours, failing, blaming galu, realising it was my fault, then reading the instructions properly and succeeding!
@@LordWarious The Ultimate Apocalypse mod for Dawn of War is quite good imo, but not as good as DaC. I do agree that 40k is lacking in quality games, & the few that do exist dont tend to get much attention. Not many channels actually even play DoW even tho its probably the best 40k fame we're likely to get.
LotR and 40k both have amazing fanart. In my humble and completely 100% totally unbiased utterly-devoid-of-chapter-loyalty opinion, the Ninth needs more love, though, in terms of artwork. The First and Thirteenth always get all the attention. For Baal and Sanguinius!
@@mattaffenit9898 Blood Angels also get a fair amount of love from what I've seen, not as much as the 1st or 13th, tis true, but more than others I could name. Like the Raven Guard. I know how you feel though, My personal favorite Chapter/Legion (The Imperial Fists) don't get as much love as I'd like
You guys get it all the time, and frankly deserve it, but you guys have done such an amazing job bringing this game to life, and to the public. Thank you so much. It was genuinely one the best days ive ever had when i discovered there is in fact a LOTR total war. And to have such a dedicated and talented crew on it is legitimately beyond any hope i had in my time
Exelent video as always. 27:56 In the overviews for V3, you used to say that one should multiply the pikemens attack stat by 3 to get a more accurate picture of how they might perform.
Honsetly I feel like Harad--whether through an event or they start with it--Should get a general whos on a mumakill, Since lets be real that unit is one of the main reasons you start a harad campaign when you first play third age
Might I suggest giving the troll-men champions a shield stat of 1? In reality a skilled fighter with a shield on their back can make some use of it, coming from re-enactment experience. It's nowhere near as good as having it in your hand, but it is there and they're supposed to be elite. Also: Bree
Thank you guys so much for doing all this work. CA really should hire your community to make an official Lord of the rings Total War which I'm sure you guys would be able to do on the equivalent of a shoestring budget. I really don't like how all these major companies are stuck in the dark ages of how things used to be done. Not only do they flush vast amounts of currency down the toilet with bloated projects and bloated staff (like middle management) and the inevitable corruption and inefficiency that follows , but they turn out an inferior product. does anyone else remember the Golden age of when you bought a game it was a complete and functional game and if it had any major bugs they typically released a patch in a timely fashion? do you remember how about 6 months to a year after the full and complete game came out they would offer a expansion pack that significantly increase the amount of content in the game and could almost be a second game and of itself at a reasonable price? Pepperidge farm remembers. Seriously three groups , two companies, that need to get their heads out of their asses about their hiring and IP: Games Workshop, the Tolkien Family, and CA. The sad thing is how many major companies most notably Disney studios hard lobbied and spent billions of dollars to get these added on protections and an extension of IP rights. Dozens of famous works would already be in the 'public domain' If not for these companies. In the old days an artist or an inventor got somewhere around 50-70 years of protections on his intellectual property or his invention patent to profit off of it which is almost an entire lifetime assuming you started in your late teens or somewhere in your twenties. Not anymore, it's been extended so much because Mickey mouse was about to enter the public domain and Disney was panicking. The really sad thing is is that many of these companies and individuals drew inspiration from earlier intellectual properties, IE DISNEY STUDIOS ENTIRE GOLDEN AGE OF FILMS.
Hi Galu I'm really happy that Faction overwiew is back, if it's not to much to ask for I would like to see a Clanes of Enedwaith overwiew. Can't wait for V4, have a good weekend.
I dont think Enedwaith will come up early, they had some changes (at least map changes and a new unit), so they may still be subject to testing/changing)
@@astilla9 Enedwaith is my favourite faction, so I can wait if they a getting a major update. I'm happy to know they are getting a new unit, thank you very much for updating me. Have a good day.
They are looking to put it into the next version after 4 but they need time to write it and programm it from the ground up because they want to have their own script and all. It could take even longer than I stated.
Galu, I'm noting everything you say in Faction Overviews in a little notebook of mine, to get better at the game, basically. THANK YOU for being so organized and clear in your videos. It really really helps ! Being so clear helps me a lot to understand the game mechanics as a non native speaker. Thanks a lot.
Hey Galu! Great work like always! Om stoked about playing this when it comes out!! Small question, I do you have a change log? I think many of the more veterans would like to read the Changelog with associated faction. Again, thanks for your dedication!
I think the Harad bodyguard is one of the best bodyguard units in the game now, since they are still cavalry and have quite high numbers in comparison to DA and Rohan's cav bodyguard
Does movement speed differ between infantry and cavalry? I.e. is a cavalry with 100% speed as fast as an infantry with 100% speed, or do they have their own classes? Might be odd with cavalry such as Swan Knights being 90-95% speed while Hasharii are 110% speed.
It's relative to the default speed of cavalry or infantry. Yes cavalry is by default faster than infantry, a 110% speed Hasharii is way, way, way slower than 95% Swan Knights.
My question is are you actually going to put the reforged skin of the oliphaunt in V4 or was that just something you guys wanted to do but changed your mind?
4 роки тому+18
It wont be in V4. It might be in the future. Not sure yet.
Thanks a lot for your videos! I managed to get all rebel provinces around me and even khand capital (blue wizard attack) and am still ally with AA and Khand.
I think in the past Galu said that for pike units you only need to multiply the attack number by a certain amount to get their real attack number but I'm not sure.
Arachir mate, you can make in this faction overviews some INTRO. Like thematic music a maybe read some tolkiens text or yours... PS: you didnt show family trees
4 роки тому+4
Oh bugger, I'll have to make a note of that so i dknt forget next time.
Would it not make far more sense if the unlocking of units was related to Battles Won? By showing your military might and power and the plunder you gain due to it, more tribes join you. So 5 battles won, 10 battles won etc. You say they are all nomadic and therefore possessing land does not matter to them (Ever heard of grazing lands?) and in pretty much the next sentence say that *possessing all that land* is what brings those tribes to join you.
Has the BUG at the logarth Bridge been fixed in 4 ? I'm currently using 2.2, a tad old so probably has. Bug is that there are High banks on the river meaning there are cliff face (impassable) all around the bridge entrance and road is impassable (battle map).
This is looking really nice! One question though: will Dunedain factions (Gondor/Northern Dunedain/ Ard-Adunaim) be able to repair Annuminas? I feel like it could be accomplished if Annuminas was knocked down to a large city, then allowed to upgrade to a Huge City like Tharbad can in V3, or if the House of Kings was able to be rebuilt there like it is supposed to be in the lore. Also, is there anything in the works to handle the stability of the mod? I can barely go 30 minutes to an hour without the mod running into an unspecified error and crashing. Stability and Annuminas aside, I absolutely love this mod and can't wait for the V4 release. Keep up the good work! :D
Hi Galu - first of all, I'm really enjoying the development of the new version! Holistically, it seems that all the efforts of the team are coming together in a wonderful world that looks more polished and complete than ever. Colour me excited! I have a question though: Is the release form of V.4 decided? I.e, are we talking an expansion-type of a deal to V.3 - or a stand-alone version in its own right? May you have a splendid day, All the best from Copenhagen!
4 роки тому+1
It will be standalone. It will be totally standalone as we will include TATW in the download.
I think you are fighting the Dwarfs of Erebor and the Iron Hills. Firsrt of, t he individual soldiers per batallion looks kind of small. And seconded, they have catapults!
What do the "inspire friendly troops" actually do as far as stats go? Same question but for the terrain, like what does getting a bonus in barren mean?
Is there a chance you wold consider having the basic Armoury built in (nearly) all capital cities? Since it never made sense to me that no one figured it would be a good idea before you take control to have the capital protected.
Why isn’t more of Harad a desert? Even Harondor on my map in the LotR is described in parenthesis (Now a debatable and desert land). So shouldn’t the land between the Poros and Harnen be like a African Savannah, and the land idk just south of the hill line below Faen’obel be actual desert?
4 роки тому+3
I would agree if I am honest and, post V4, I will stretch the desert up to central Harondor.
Love these Galu. Question for anyone my launcher wouldn't work said error I needed to download the definitive edition now it launches but after I start a campaign at a high resolution the game eventually crashes when it never crashed before this. Then when I go back into the game it comes back in a low resolution it also turns on show computer moves when it wasnt on when I started. This game worked perfectly before I had to download this definitive edition...if anyone could please help me out. Thanks
Did you manage to deal with two handed weapons glitch? In MED2 there is a glitch which makes two handed units really weak because they tend to more block attacks than attack.
4 роки тому
We haven't made any changes to the two handdd weapons.
No it doesn't work that way. Any unit that has a shield defense value will get it's full defense from the front, half from the sides and none from behind. The shield on the unit model doesn't matter at all; a unit will still get shield defense even if there's no actual shield on the unit model.
Couldn't the reason they called merchants princesses be, so they could have some of the women from the lore present in the game? Like Arwen and Galadriel and so on?
That could be. Or maybe they want the merchant to princess cause you know the men/husband are generals and always on battle so in their mind why not put it the daughters/princess into a merchant to even the role I guess?
Pardon the stupid question, but how do I remove the fog of war? I'd like to be able to familiarize myself with where settlements are located on this middle earth map, as a new player of the mod. edit: Second dumb question, are mumakils considered cavalry for the purpose of horse breeder guild? Because I'd sure like to be able to recruit them more than once every 40 turns.
Hey I’m assuming you got an answer already, but in the console command screen (the ‘ key for me) type “ toggle_fow “ to turn it off and on. For the second question, I’m not 100%, but I think that they’re just considered elephants (as they would be in base M2TW), or “great beasts” (such as those big rhino things Mordor get). Either way, though, they are not cavalry as far as I know.
Hello, there is the Total War submod that resets diplomacy entirely for dac, so no alliance and no ennemies at the beginning of the campaign. I think Galu talked about it in his DaC V3 - Submod Installation. GLHF
4 роки тому
Mr Von Gunten is correct. There is a submod for V3 that turns all the alliances and wars off so you can play totally how you want. In V4 this will be included as an alternative campaign at the main menu.
You really screwed over this faction from base game. You took a lot of their territory and gave it to your fanfiction faction. And gave them no economy bonus to compensate
4 роки тому+3
The addition of Umbar was a decision taken over 8 years ago by a modding team whose names history has forgotten. 8 years later, you lodge your disagreement without any semblance of a suggestion. Do you think that is likely to inspire me to change them now? I'll spare you the guesswork - no it doesn't.
The anti cheat stuff on TATW made me not want to play it. Single player game what business of anyone elses is it if someone cheats. Thats arrogant and entitled in the extreme.
@Leugimimi No it isn't. TATW base mod gives your generals negative traits if you used cheats - insinuating that they would make your characters go insane since you were imitating the powers of the ring and the palantiri etc. DAC does not have this, cheat as much as you like, no one cares.

For the second question, I’m not 100%, but I think that they’re just considered elephants (as they would be in base M2TW), or “great beasts” (such as those big rhino things Mordor get). Either way, though, they are not cavalry as far as I know.
@@alexhg127 Thank you very much.
When can we expect the Gondor overview?
Who else recruited troll men from tharbad?
It is Isengard!
Is this "unite the tribes" script also restricting the AI, when it plays Harad or is it just for the player?
Player only, the AI gets everything triggered at game start and only requires the building needed to train the unit.
the AI wouldn't be able to handle it otherwise
Only at Turn 1 when auto-expansion hasn't taken place yet.This is the same for all factions.
Give them some swords infantry with shields god damn enough with the spears and tribal stuff they aint that boring
Make them yourself.
So you can get the bodyguard unit faster if you have the horse breeders Guild?
No. The bodyguard is unaffected as it only trains from a few locations anyway.
Arachîr Galudirithon ok thank you ;)
I have a question is there a way to start a DaC campaign where you can start without being allied with any other faction ?
Hello, there is the Total War submod that resets diplomacy entirely for dac, so no alliance and no ennemies at the beginning of the campaign. I think Galu talked about it in his DaC V3 - Submod Installation. GLHF
Mr Von Gunten is correct. There is a submod for V3 that turns all the alliances and wars off so you can play totally how you want. In V4 this will be included as an alternative campaign at the main menu.
Are you fighting the anduin vale ?
Do You plan rework Dorwinion in future? , It looks bare for now.
Worst part are units . So i am just asking if you have any plans for them.
Nope they are finished.
Hey do u ever plan on making a version of the second age? Its has the greatest battle battles , like the last alliance
No plans I am afraid.
How come the Troll-men have 2 armor? They are clearly only in their underwear.
They just have *that* much muscle.
Thick hide-like skin.
Dunedin or breeland
Bree?
I'm curious... Did Stephen Colbert get this right? I trust your opinion. It's a short clip.

He did yes. Some of the pronunciation is technically off but reginal accents shouldn't be derided I don't think. :)
@ Thanks!

@Colin Dallaba First Gay ? 🤔
@@ArtThouGardener 😂 You mean John Paul 2nd
You really screwed over this faction from base game. You took a lot of their territory and gave it to your fanfiction faction. And gave them no economy bonus to compensate
The addition of Umbar was a decision taken over 8 years ago by a modding team whose names history has forgotten.
8 years later, you lodge your disagreement without any semblance of a suggestion. Do you think that is likely to inspire me to change them now?
I'll spare you the guesswork - no it doesn't.
The anti cheat stuff on TATW made me not want to play it. Single player game what business of anyone elses is it if someone cheats. Thats arrogant and entitled in the extreme.
@Leugimimi No it isn't. TATW base mod gives your generals negative traits if you used cheats - insinuating that they would make your characters go insane since you were imitating the powers of the ring and the palantiri etc.
DAC does not have this, cheat as much as you like, no one cares.
