Open the research screen (by clicking on it in the bottom right corner of the screen or by pressing the 8 key) and select the State Troop Sergeants technology. This should be enough to conquer nearby settlements, but if you want to be more sure (and suffer less casualties during combat), recruit another, identical group of units - this text assumes you do so.Īfter the 3rd turn starts the Rally Field will be constructed and you will be given access to new units (ignore them at the moment), and the possibility to conduct research will unlock. Before you venture towards nearby settlements, send the Lord into Altdorf to increase the public order for the next turn and start recruiting new units - purchase at least two units of Swordsmen and one unit of Spearmen. Thanks to that you will gain access to two new units - Spearmen (Shields) and Crossbowmen. Start by upgrading the building found there - from the Training Field to the Rally Field. Just checked it, you still cant, at least I can't, but they will add replenishment in neutral territory with the next update which at east band-aid fixes another major issue KF campaign has.When the campaign starts you will be given your first Lord (the faction leader), as well as the capital of the Reikland province, Altdorf. Pretty sure you can build a wall in Altdorf now. I wouldnt bother playing him rn unless you are really in for challenge run. KF is also the only LL afaik that doesnt even start with a wizard and has to wait until Altdorf tier 4 to get one, while also having ♥♥♥♥ garrison and no option to build a garrison building in the capital, hence me saying the is incomplete in WH3. It's the closest non-ThisIsTotalWar campaign ThisIsTotalWar campaign you can currently play if thats what you enjoy. You cant even consolidate your province before the first elector counts get wiped out, the newly added threats havent been considered for the the dilemma mechanic of the Empire. Originally posted by kgmi:The Empire mechanics are incomplete in WH 3 and do not translate well at all with new status quo, which makes KF and Gelt one of the hardest starts for all the wrong reasons. We have to see another way to confed them. Confederations seems almost impossible to succeed, since they now excel at conquering their neighbours (volkmar and markus). Wh3 seems to have better rewards to an aggresive player (they nerfed all the economic buildings to stop the tide order), more reasons with kf to farm incluence in order to stop civil wars and farm authority (always save up to 1k in the bad case you have to stop someone from going war). Come back to altdorf and update your army one last time until you go vs vampires this time. Repeat process with hochland and ostland, destroy festus.

Why? because festus is a ♥♥♥♥ and likes to wipe the entire faction, that means +8 fealty giving them back to toddy and farm authority (reviving factions reset their relationships, even with enemies, great to let them stack again).

Middenland will be your first faction that will ask you about confed. The marienburg dillema, 3 choices: leave bretonnia take it (u wont have the elector unit), conquer the entire province (worst choice right now), conquer just marienburg ( best choice to have everything without too many penalties). Except south (aka wissenland), every front is potentially in danger: specially with festus destroying up to 3 elector counts. Now that the game gets spicier and lorefully accurate for KF, i ll give you some tips for this: Remember: you were doing the exact 30 turns in 2 games.
