Warhammer Total War: Stock Market Exploit

With Total War Warhammer 3 trailer just getting announced I felt now was the perfect time to revisit the total war warhammer series and see if we can break warhammer 2 by turning it into an investment simulator where instead of leading an army in a strategy game we will be be turning this grand strategy game into a hedge fund simulator where we invest in a band of orks in order to create an infinite money glitch / exploit. Total war warhammer 2 has always been one of the best strategy games on the market but today we will be removing the strategy side of the game and instead we will be printing money by exploiting a feature with the last elven lord update. This money exploit allows you to generate millions, its not often we get a total war exploit this powerful so be sure to use it before the next warhammer dlc appears and patches this creative feature and use of game mechanics!
What you have seen here today is part of a fantastic perfectly balanced series on youtube where I go from game to game and break them with wacky exploits to gain things like unlimited gold. If you enjoyed this then be sure to check out more. The style is similar to RT game and callmekevin in parts. A large influence on this series has come from Valefisk and The Killian Experience.
So sit back relax and enjoy this Warhammer Exploit! How on earth can one english bugger beat Total War itself and gain unlimited spearmen armies whilst gaining money!!

It's still not as broken as whenever Skyrim sends me a courier note of an inheritance from some random enemy I killed.

[@christianfreedom-seeker934]

Wait, how do you do that? Oh yes! Jigger the relations tab to the point where are are exhalted with the bandits and BOOM! you inherit every time you kill a bandit. Did I get that correct? Or are you simply endlessly killing Sergio Plagia? Lol!

[@diooverheaven6561]

Calm spell makes enemies not neutral but friendly so when they die they leave you money

[@ss5gogetunks]

@@diooverheaven6561 that's hilarious!

[@IcepersonYT]

@@diooverheaven6561 I just love the idea of casting Calm on a bandit, him going “I like you dude, I’ll write you into my will.” and then slitting their throat on the side of the road to get inheritance a while down the road when they are discovered.

Hey Spiff I found a new exploit in Mount and Blade Banner lord. When crafting weapons the prices of some cheap weapons are absurd. The best weapons to craft for money are 1 steel 1 wood javelins. Steps to do the exploit: 1. Get companions that can smith 2. Level up your smithing level and your companions levels by smelting and crafting. 3. Craft and smelt until you unlock the the “extra long fine steel spearhead,” or my favorite the “hooked javelin.” You also want to get the branch grip for this to be cost effective. 4. Make the head of the javelin as big as it can be and make the grip as small as it can be. 5. Make the javelin over and over again because they can cost upwards of 150,000 denars and use the money to buy everyone’s land.

Bad choice from the game mechanic perspective. using an Elf faction like Ellyrion is much better, as you can leave them with 1 gate and farm gold and influence there with Nobles, instead of having to besiege a settlement with an army.

[@Prikense]
