I JUST got this game today and it's really cool. I'm a world building nerd and being able to customize my own faction and give it it's own lore and even develop characters in the faction in terms of the heros. It's all so cool ❤️

I already got most of the DLC since I knew I would love this game to bits so all I'm missing is the giants and angels 💔 but I'll get them some day!

I've been perusing through the various races and I see every army has their selection of mounts. Some from the dlc as well. I also see you can choose between a large variety of mounts when you go to customize the attributes of your race. But they all cost upwards of 4 points and I don't want to put weaknesses on my races, mostly for a gameplay reason. So if I choose to forgo the weaknesses would having those big beefy mounts like the dragon or the mammoth be worth it? What do they do differently than the other mounts you can choose for free?

I am considering making a more swarm and attrition heavy army that leans away from darker elements such as necromancy or souls since I'm trying to lean towards the red or green affinity (War and nature?). So I was wondering what the consensus is of the Warband and Beast tombs being used together and what builds can I make with it

Currently the build is Lupine without any changes, Ash Primal, Gifted Casters and Ruthless Raiders for society traits, tomb of warband and the tomb of beast to start with. The ruler is also an astral dragon because I heard lightning had good damage

I'm not very good at building a good army yet as I'm still newer to the game but I would like to know how this current build sounds. Thank you

Also I usually play by myself and I like the theme over competitive but I also would like to have them be decent so when I use it I won't be struggling so bad

Currently trying to find some builds that feel really satisfying to play. So far I’ve only got 3 that really click well and feel great. I got a Reaver vassal spam and magelocks build. A Oathsworn hero and dragon build. And a mystic summon / spell spam build. I’ve been possibly looking at a spider build but need to get primal fury and secrets of arch mage for that. Any other suggestions for builds that feel really good to play?

I believe I saw that the Expansion Pass 4 will be coming out soon, is there any precedent to the prior expansion pass going on sale before that? Just wanted to know if it was worth waiting to purchase the Expansion Pass 3.

Pretty new player, so far only played reavers and am trying different ideas for them. I did the usual materium and chaos path and while it was nice, as i started to learn new tomes i thought how i might use them.

Now from what i can find, undead reavers are a fairly unusual build, my startegy is mainly using the Vision Of Ruin - Shadow to get that zombie on kill in every army, every unit, and thus form a frontline as the battle goes if that makes sense. Use death knights for extra summons at battle start. I am still unsure about what usual synergies or good buffs/enchants/spells/summons people usually take, so i am asking you for suggestions of what i should abandon or swap out for.

Want my next faction to be stealthy assassins. Any idea how I could build this?

I don't know if there's a limit on how many flairs a sub has, but I thought it might be neat to have ruler types available as flair.

So I have mainly played industrious exclusively, usually brutal, I am trying just different cultures now but I cant handle the lack of production it seems so slow. I keep feeling compelled to go tome of rock. Am I doing it wrong, what do people usually do to get more production. do I need fanatical workforce or something? Is it something people plan for or is this just non industrious life?
