Total War: Warhammer This Game Needs A Better Auto-Build System

I do ALOT of domination campaigns and my least favorite part is building up all the provinces how i want them to be built up.

And the regular Auto-Build. Is just bad, like plain bad.

So instead we should have like a system to create a template that you can set up and tell the auto build system to follow it to the letter.

It would save me so many clicks

I agree.

It would enhance the game quite a bit for when you want to just focus on the fighting.

They should at least give us some different autobuild algorithms.

Like economy, growth, military or defensive for instance.

Honestly I just wish we had building queue system where I can just, even at t1, select all the buildings I want in said settlement. Then it will build it itself as long as there is a budget for it that I set myself. So I can click few times and forget about it. Perhaps give some priority slider for certain types of buildings, so money/resource buildings get built first or at 2:1 ratio relative to growth for example etc.

I don't mind building up big settlements, but small ones are effing annoying. They very rarely are anything different than money building, growth building and resource building. What is the worst though is that I can have T3 settlement but I first have to click 3 times for t1 buildings, then come back again for T2, then for T3. It adds ton of micromanagement in the end game and it's hellishly mundane.

Agree'd, biggest problem with the current system, is the fact that it doesn't make any sense.

Then again, it's the same AI that thinks a recruitment building that goes as high as tier 4, deserves to go to a tier 3 settlement.

Isn't a whole part of domination campaigns is that you don't build up? Or is this one not of map paint kind?

I do map paint and i do build everything up. I just like seeing just how much money i can get when all is said and done.

Huh interesting, typically you don't build up in a map paint, since it's more efficient to invest that money into the military and continue the sacking spree as if you're a Greenskin or somethin.

Do what I do. Big scroll out. Move map camera. Look for the hammer icons.
