#Total war warhammer 2 faction guide how to#

Upon successfully attacking an opponents holdings and winning the fight you are presented with numerous options on how to proceed, one of which is to loot the place and this can generate a lot of wealth but also makes you quite unpopular with the faction that owns the city/settlement and will further penalize your diplomatic standing with them. You could also turn to raiding but this has diplomatic consequences and can lead to war so it's best avoided until you have sufficient military might to repel hostile forces. Trade agreements are another effective means of generating wealth and when reviewing a proposed trade agreement understand that you do not have a finite supply of the widgets you're exporting so you need not concern yourself with the dollar/volume ratio the gold value you see displayed is what each of the participating factions stands to profit from the agreement per turn. The first and most direct way is via constructing buildings that provide income, when you mouse over potential structures in the building tab you can see an overview of what they provide. There are numerous ways to generate income, not all of the following is available to all factions. Open the diplomacy window and see what your relationship with your neighbors is. You will want to develop a strong economy as armies cost wealth to recruit and maintain. Promoting growth which is a stat that modifies how rapidly your cities and towns will reach a point of expansion allowing for more construction slots and recruitment of superior units. You can see what the modifier is by hovering your mouse over the land. Different terrain types modify the odds of successfully ambushing opponents so areas where roads skirt forests are prime positions. The first thing you will want to do is take in your surroundings, look at the lay of the land and pay attention to roads and rivers as these impact the distance your armies can move per turn. G'day all, this is a compilation of general pointers for the game, my motivation to write this is the result of people I know purchasing the game and streamers I've watched that are new to the game and looking for guidance.
