EPTI actually like the removal of sanitation and food per province, it was just really annoying to puzzle together the best way to build things, really not what i play these games for to be honest.

Right now I'm in turn ~115 and for the past 40 rounds or so I had 0 chance to expand. The only thing I've been doing is running around with 4 different armies and fighting off Dwarves & Hoomans from the north, backstabbing Greenskins and Chaos from the south... Oh and I forgot, there are also two rebellions marching towards my citys. Edit: Greenskin myself. | ||

Autoresolve is supposed to be used to stomp much weaker opponents so that you don't get bored waiting ~5 mins until you finish battle you can't lose. In such situations there is no problem you describe - you hardly lose anything. In other instances it works as intended because it encourages you to actually play the game. I don't know how things are in Warhammer, but in Rome 2 and Attila this was a problem exactly for those battles that you couldn't lose. Let's say you are playing as Egypt and want to conquer a settlement that has pretty much no units in it except for the garrison. You are also fielding 2 squads of chariots. The autoresolve says that you are at 94% or something. With chariots being 12 units strong, you ended losing 10 of your 12 chariots per squad in that autoresolve while all your other troops barely took any damage at all. With chariots replenishing 1 per round, you had to sit in your newly conquered settlement for quite a long time until you were able to move out again, just because your chariots took all the damage. From what I was told, this is still the case in Warhammer. I cannot confirm it on my own though, since I am waiting for the game to be on sale (never again, CA!). | ||

Another thing that bothers me is that whenever a rebellion sparks up in a province where I own a city, it always attacks the city I own, never one of the other cities. I still enjoy the game quite a bit, especially since I can blame a lot of things on this being my first total war ever. I just hope that there will be some detailed guides in the near future because right now I don't have a clue about anything : D. EDIT: Oh and the fact that they failed to properly support dual monitor setups is slightly annyoing. Their windowed mode is only good for alttabbing and nothing else. | ||

might as well put it to good use, I guess...

From the way you describe it, they are rebelling against your presence in that province. They are probably happy with whoever else is controlling the other holdings and unhappy with your being there. If your happiness is in the red, it doesn't mean that it is the same for whoever else is occupying the rest of the province. | ||

I just assumed the approval in the cities my enemies sacked would be worse. | ||

IF they all have their own single player section, it will be worth $10-15 per race. personally I think they should have every race as playable in the main campaign. comparing this to RTW where you could play every race and then things like barbarian invasion were optional expansions. I feel like i'm being short-changed | ||

I feel like i'm being short-changed Considering that the changes for each race are much more massive in WarHammer, including models, special units, magic and other aspects, its not really comparable. From a sheer man hours standpoint, a lot more work is put into each different race in Warhammer than in the Rome or Shogun games. | ||

When my empire grows bigger, I have multiple armies stompeding through my realms reaking havoc and my own armies are chasing them around but never catching up to them and this seriously anoys the hell out of me. Does anyone have some tipps for that? | ||

the vamps are bugged and cant expand because their zombies reduce autobattle score, so they only fight each other and then stay in sylvana land, i think they are supposed to be more of a trheat. So i expand and grab the rich provinces, then kill the vamps off and then i have to big enemy, bretons in my game just did nothing and dwarfs loves me for killing off a few grennskin cities. then chaos starts coming and gets completely rekt by the human factions and i even had some dwarf minor faction hunt them across the map, was pretty funny. Only had 20 manual battles and i did all fights manually that were not complete stomps | ||

Considering the races in the game and the tabletop females you would pretty much be limited to Chaos (like... 1) and Vampire Counts. But even then its generic vampires since the only important female vampire was Isabella and she is dead-dead by the time of the game. | ||

I skipped on Rome 2 because of awful quality of release and never turned back, so I guess you're right. I had no such problems with hero units in Shogun 2 or before that though - so it's something relatively new (and gross  ). Autoresolve used to harm you units quite equally in battles though, so elite units which had small numbers and took a long time to recover were always a concern (and you usually saved your time just by playing it out instead of micromanaging your territory for a few more turns until your army heals). | ||
