That's a damn fine strategy, because I struggled with Kemmler a lot, he has loads of enemies to fight early on and making Reikland your friend is nice touch.
I've been playing this campaign recently and this guy won't budge for many deals.
No wonder you had to gift him so much for a confederation. Nice tips!
Ah, I just played Kemmler and I accidentally made him a vassal which set conferdating him ages back.
Trade Settlement is probably the biggest gamechanger in WH3 vs WH2
In WH2 you can give/receive settlements with the Console Commands mod.. but that does require you to look up faction keys and it doesn't influence or require diplomacy. But it can be nice for swapping towns to finish provinces and such.
Having it as a base mechanic sure is great, you won't hear me argue against that :D
@@Zapnl I think the main benefit of the feature in the current state is the previously impossible diplomatic feats achievable.
In the past some relationships could not be repaired or improved. If someone had -100 aversion there wasn't much coming back from that. So the diplomacy was inflexible.
Imrik is probably the biggest benefactor from the feature because whereas before he was always encircled by haters, now he can annex territories and sell them to shore up his borders because it massively improves the diplomatic relationship especially since you can normally get non-aggression and trade as part of the deal.
not the trade settlement per se... but the way the AI value the trade settlement...
@@agps4418 yeah you're right. they think it's a gift to their faction even when you sell it to them.
i hope we get RD at some point sad that CA no longer makes FLC LL would have loved to see him and boris in the IE start
CA is crashing and burning hard, don't expect anything good from them from now on
gonna try this on my next VC campaign. The Red Duke is so cool, thanks for the guide!
Haha you had to flex back on the guy who mentioned he got duke in 4 turns on your stream :) Love it.
That was @Cheesus I think! Haha yeah I could have got it in 4 turn on stream too but I did a few things wrong. (should have pulled them into wars with military alliance OR used the settlement deals to buy them to join wars), either would have worked but it's harder to think and plan clearly in live shows.
This approach changed my Kemmler experience to the better😅
Awesome Vid Mercy! Really cool strat.
I did this myself and got little different result. Louen takes all of my gifted settlements from red duke by turn 4 when i was attacking Marienburg. But that was fine, cos i got Red duke o turn 5 and then I sold he's starting city to Louen and i got him as my vassal. Sold marienburg and fort to reikland and now i have defense alliance with them. Rly good campaing start i would say, thx for the tips :)
When people play you just to get a minor unique lord.
Trying to figure out how to score Manfred as Kemmler
thank you mercy these sorts of guides keep it fun, and good science !!!
iirc Mousillon kinda staid afloat in ME, but now in IE they die very quickly, dunno why as nothing much changed around them...
Yeah Kemmler is the only one who can reliably get Red Duke I find
Having a nose is the biggest undead flex. Great video!
If you use Mixu unlocker you can s tart with him. He is also unique in that he can level BOTH unique skill lines at level 10. Bloodline version can only chose one. -40% upkeep for Grave guard, -50 Upkeep for Black knights ect.
Every time I gift Artois to the Duke it gets invaded the very next turn by Bretonnia. Anyone else this happening too?
Maybe a bit RNG. You could try waiting 1 more turn then gifting Artois and Giseroux at the some time. Might delay the confed by a turn or two though or Mousillon could get wiped - but they usually* survive a few turns.
Guess I know what my next campaign will be!
This is awesome thank you!
ALTERNATIVE: Download the "Fudging vassals" mod. Vassalize the red duke in exchange for gisoreux. A message will pop up explaining that the faction you vassalized is one you can confederate with and offer to turn the vassalization into a confederation instead. Accept, enjoy your free red duke.
And before you type angry at me, if you are willing to use this much cheese, I don´t see why you wouldn´t want to streamline the process with mods.
About that "trade settlement" thing; It is a mod? Or just a WH3 mechanic? I don't have the 3rd one haha
It's just a thing you can do in diplomacy. No mods needed.
Strategy needs to be changed as currently Louen Leonceoeuereu interferes by immediately taking Artois from Mousillon, disabling the Gisouereaueus gift the next turn.
This guide was done for version 4.0.7. It's likely changed a bit as we are in v5.2.4 now. You should still be able to use the same basic idea to get the confed though.. If you are worried Louen will take Artois, maybe try waiting a turn and sell both Artois and Giseroux to Mousillon on the next turn. You should still get the confed, but just take 1-2 turns longer. I think it is very rare for Mousillon to die on turn 1-2 now, so you should have amore time.
@@MercytheMad
Yeah that makes sense, thank you Mercy ❤
Hold on a minute, it took you five turns.
This is a different run :) 4 turns this time.
@@MercytheMad Even five turns during the Live Stream impressed me!
*and having a nose* - that's hilarious! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Or you could just get the recruit defeated legendary lord mod and save yourself all that trouble.
You can just mod it so you win the game as soon as you hit "Start game" too... :P
in patch 5.6 still works~!
Nice! Yeah apparently sometimes Louen takes Artois on turn 2 but you can avoid that by just not selling Artois to Mousillon until turn 3, along with Gisoreaux. I just did it that way in livestream last week and still got the confed. on turn 4.
The video goes vary fast so I had to rewind a few times to follow a long. But now the Red Duke has joined me and I have a great start to my campaign. Thank you!
A nose is very important thing this days :)
The gift to Reikland is the true gem of this video... That alone makes your campaign so much easier... Leouncour?? Doesn't like Karl having Marienburg also
I am currently playing a Vampire campaign with a friend and I vassalized Mousillon. They don't do a lot right now so I am probably going to confederate them at this point.
I can't understate how important it is to have a nose guys. Don't sleep on this.
Lol
I'm definitely gonna try this out I love red duke
Always good to have a nose
Hey, have you tried threating him into a confederation when it's -16? It worked for me once within a Dark Elf campaign, maybe you can save a turn
Nah I tend not to do that because of the RNG element, but in this case it would be pretty good as you can just auto-resolve all the battles up to turn 3 in 15-20 mins and just redo it if the threaten fails.
@@MercytheMad threatening into confederating can be incredibly useful, especially when when you can't control how much your target will grow. It's a pretty reliable way to confederate Teclis and Alith Anar as Tyrion for example, as you will ally them with no problem, drag them into a zillion wars and threaten. Your reliability drops a lot but who cares, as Tyrion you're invincible
This was my last campaign a little while ago, I sent Kemmler north after getting the duke to take out northern Bretonnia/Greenskins/Marienburg/Reikland/Greenskins in the northern Empire then sent him to take out Belakor and beat Wulfrik into submission as pointless going that way. Took out all Kislev and Moulder and that's as far as I got. Alarielle was my defensive ally from when i destroyed Grom till I finished the game who was quite happy to declare war on everyone with me but didn't do any fighting! The Duke went south and took out southern Brettonia/Grom/Dwarves/Woodelves (with supporting armies). Eventually got to Beastmen and Skaven. I unfortunately had endgame on and it was Settra so had to cross the water to deal with him! Only managed to confederate Vlad and I played much longer than usual, about 70 turns. Manfred refused to confederate even though he was wounded and had 1 region and 1 army left over by Kroq/Khalida and about to be obliterated by Settra. Belegar then declared war and I just lost interest by that many turns!
The Duke can pretty much solo a lot of armies though so is much more useful then Kemmler!
Yeah I love the red duke. Kemmler is also kinda cool as he is a slightly tougher necro to give AOE regen and he has Krell to help kill single entities.
@@MercytheMad definitely, and being on a horse with Krell in his pocket makes capping in sieges quite easy with just the two of them with zombie summons. For me getting the duke, I made a b-line for Lyonese and gave that to him to get an alliance and made him declare war on Carcassonne. Carcassonne took Mousillon almost immediately as the duke occupied Lyonese. The Duke then wounded the fay enchantress but was down to a few units. I confederated him the next turn. Probably not 4 turns but under 10 for sure, never gave him any gifts! Not sure if losing the faction capital as AI increases likelihood to confederate?
@@jamesdrewry5229 Yeah he is pretty easy to confederate because he gets flogged by all his early game rivals, the trick s just to gift him more regions to keep him alive long enough to confederate. The gifts raise the relations to get the confed faster, but as you see in the video you get all the money back anyway so the gifts are free. You may not need the, but you may as well as it costs nothing.
mmmmm, always liked The Red Duke
Great guide mercy!
VirginWalk Kemmler vs Chad Stride Red Duke.
Yeah wtf. Who figures this shit out
I came up with this one. Being obsessed with Total War is totally normal. :P
Took me to turn 6 as Leon besieged Artois and I had to spank him, but this works really well. Thanks!
Nice. Although would be a lot simpler to just download a mod to let you play as the red duke and skip all this nonsense
You make the best guides
Awesome, going to try this now. Thanks for this.
Hope you have a good campaign! I did a Kemmler stream and did it live if you want some extra content on this strat.
@@MercytheMad Cheers mate, I was actually watching you play it on Twitch - that's how I found out about this video. Kemmler's campaign is actually a lot of fun imo, somewhat underrated in terms of VC LL's.
@@PadanFain836 Kemmler is good. I mainly Play Vlad or Isabella. Kemmler is my alternate lord when I want a change. Don't really enjoy Mannfred or Ghorst as much usually.
Where are Mikeal Jacsen and Ranlack the Black?
I don't remember his quest is to find the Red Duke XD
does anyone know if this works in sfo? or if you have to tweak it to make it work in sfo?
Is it safe to go into Alliances if you want to confederate? Won't it get harder for them to accept confederation if you allied with them?
It might give you a slight malus in some cases but it's usually not really noticable.
Main reason to take Military alliance is so you can drag them into wars to make them feel more threatened. The bonus to confed you can get this way can out-way any negative you get from the alliance usually. If there IS a penalty for alliances it seems like it is usually pretty small.
Is confederation available at +150 for other factions too? I had no idea
You can get confederation at lower reputation but specifically getting to 150 gives you a big boost. Seems to be the same for all factions. (150 relations is not automatic confed. in all situations but it always gives a big boost)
You could just use mixus unlocker and play as him from the beginning
The dream is getting red duke with strong trait
Man selling settlements is so busted. I love it.
me watching this video having mixu’s unlocker in my downloaded mods
But with this guide you get BOTH!
Having a nose is important.
T5 i had relations with Duke ~165 and still no confederation possible. What am i missing?
What's the deal chance? Are you close like -10? Or miles off like -75? If it's close you can ty threaten. Having the red duke in wars that you are NOT in helps also. Can try pulling him into more wars and peacing out with some factions he is at war with.
@@MercytheMad -30. I confed him T12, fortunately he was lvl 1, so i'm 100% happy :D
Aaaah a man who nose what he's doing
Lmao i love this idea
Bloood for the blood god!
Nose for the win
For the NOSE!
u da man
Thanks!
Cheers mate, glad you enjoyed the vid :)
i did it was a very well made video!@@MercytheMad
Honestly guys, just do yourselves a favour and download the 'Recruit Defeated Legendary Lords' mod. Takes away that rush to confederate.
