should graveguard/black knights have some capes/wooly shawls in a unit??


also picture is wip and ratios of capes/noncapes /everything might change
>>
>>144481358
Just watch out for the chaos chariot, one isn't bad but it can still roflstomp its way right through your spearmen and straight into crossbows. Later stacks will bring four or five of those motherfuckers and they don't die to crossbow bolts.

Honestly think the capes should be reserved for leaders/wight king models a la Karl Franz style

I hope you all arent min-maxing all your armies.

I've got 3 armies so far in my empire play

reiksmarshall's army

Castellan-engineer army
>6handgunners, 6 halberds, 2 steamtanks, 2 hellblaster, 3 outriders
>use pike and shot tactics

Franz army
>4 greatswords, 4 halberds, 3 handgunners, 2 demigryph, 2 hellblasters, 2 swordsmen, 1 warrior priest, 1 bright wizard

Not super efficient but sure min-max my fun

If they made each of the higher level troops progressively more expensive the more you have of the same type wouldn't that fix a lot of the balance problems in this game and encourage unit diversity? Gryphs would be prohibitively expensive after x number and no more panzer divisions. Seems simple enough.

HIS NAME WAS RUGNI OATHFORGED

The reason I'm so thrilled about this is because I've been ravaged by 4 stacks of Vamp Cunts while most of my money is being spent on armies in the south, cleaning up the orcs.
The vamps razed a shit ton of my land in the northern mountains; and Rugni here finally was able to intervene and took out all four armies within one turn, including their generals.

Also it was my first time seeing the undead implode after having their generals killed, so that was pretty fucking awesome.

The game actually says anything horse size or larger. In practice, that's anything mounted or monstrous, including chariots. Dunno about steam tanks. Orc infantry doesn't count as large even if they're big, and foot slogging lords don't either afaik. Birdman does.

Pretend you're a horde, protect black crag, and just go make war. Don't even worry too much about settlements until you've got your waaaghs going, just make sure your income is positive and go beat the shit out of armies for loot and sack when you can. Eventually someone's gonna confederate because you either beat the shit out of them or someone else has weakened them. Stay in your zone and kill everything you see, and if nothing's around, go sack the nearest thing.

It's great because it gets reapplied as long as your unit is in combat. It gives a short debuff to enemy stats, and tires them out much faster than they would normally. Biggest problem is that most of the units with it are garbage, except for crypt horrors which will just fuck shit up in melee and make everyone exhausted fighting them.

And exhaustion is a big hidden debuff to combat skills/speed, so yeah. Poison is good if you can keep it up.

Because it crashed on nearly every occasion, many things dont even work.
All of the more advanced skaven units cause crashes, Ogres cause crashes, I think large units in general increase the risk.
It happens way too often, If I have a 40+ min siege and it fucking crashed midway then im done for the day.

Another big thing are the unit rosters, wood elves have maybe 10 units (which fucking crash the game) and Empire has like 40+, many factions have only very little amount of units.

Chasing down routers, but you'd want goblin wolf riders for that anyways. The other thing is upkeep.
>>144489029
I take four crypt horrors in my elite stacks, they're really fucking good. A solid start to the campaign is gobbling up Sylvania and then turtling with one stack, western Sylvania is for recruiting forest chain, eastern Sylvania for mausoleum and cairn chain. Alternatively you can put it all in western Sylvania, but it's up to you. Worry about balefire until after you're set up.
>>

Why not put it all in eastern? There's literally no benefit to splitting it up like that.

I don't think that Arachnaroks are quite as good at causing routes. If a Boar Boy slams into the back of a unit they take a ton of leadership damage, since Boar Boyz are shock cavalry.

They're also way cheaper, but I agree that Spiders are much better.
>>
>>144489659
There is, Western gets a special building that gives forest chain recruits, like, +4 levels and makes them cheaper but it makes it hard to squeeze in an armoury.

In what situation would you want goblins over boyz?

I feel they could do with a bit of a speed buff, they're already a bit faster than boyz but it isn't particularly noticable.

Would allow them to flank a bit better or chase down fleeing units, which is all i really use them for. Their animations while chasing and killing are hilarious.

I do like using vanguard night goblins for rear charges and that poison debuff. but they feel like a bit of a waste.

>>144489975
change battle difficulty, they balance the unit stats with normal-hard battle diff in mind

Normal goblins are pretty good in situations where you need a unit that scores 3 kills, loses 20 gobbos and routs

>>144489964
the little waagh has its place, the poison is good because exhausted stunties die faster, and you do not win long battles against stunties. And spider riders are great for disruption and artillery takedowns.
