![]() Originally posted by Chancellor Vlad:I was on a crusade on chaos, with war on Chaos, Wintertooth, and Norsca. Just remember that their units are better than yours 1:1 and plan accordingly, you should be fine. i've had to keep three armies in the north, all of them supporting each other. especially important is never facing a full enemy stack with only one of your own full stacks. a general purpose army, as ive described, could probably win, but it would be costly. those would shred the zombies too fast, and probably even make it to the carts. Now those mammoths and giants you faced were a real problem. the banshee waits till the enemy lord enters combat, then hits em from the rear. grave guards seek out skinwolves, and they get all the buffs. ![]() vargeists get sent against the axe marauders or the closest thing to artillery they have. the grave guard then marches around to the rear, as the vargulf wrecks havoc on enemy lines. ![]() if there is no cav, pikemen will tie up the enemy flanks as the zombies lock up with the main melee force. sicc the wolves on axe throwing marauders to keep them running around the map for the whole battle. The main idea is for the pikemen to guard the flanks and take any cav charges. Im not sure about black coaches, i havent played with them much, but corpse carts and mortis engines just need to be in an area of effect. i first researched the book of bone (to buff/cheapen my fodder units) and then beasts, to do the same with the big guns. My necromancer is focused on heal/res buffs, and my banshee is loaded out for combat. a varghulf, a necromancer lord (really, any will do) a banshee hero, two varghiests, and three packs of the wolves. four units of zombies, two of skeleton pikemen. This is what i was rolling with: 3 grave guards without great weapons, the renouned unit of sword + shield graveguards. that's not really the strength of an undead army. You see, i know that chaos has better units than i do, 1:1. I've been straight beating chaos, the beastmen, and norsca up. The jist of it is, because someone has mods that affect balance, it's hard to give them advice, because we dont know what their game is actually balanced for, if anything. or at least he worded it in a way more likely to cause offense. When it's single player, what does it matter? i agree with shandor, but not for his reasoning. If you still have problems i can give you advice and tell you what went wrong. Get rid of non Warhammer Mods and try again. Originally posted by Shandor:I really cant give any advice to someone who cheats the game and kills the balance of the Game. What did I do wrong? Should I have had more vagrulf and terrorgiests? More Blood Knights? Less modded archers? More great weapons and less normal grave guard? a hero? I feel so confused, I was calling such ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ at the time but I figured I probably ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up somewhere. ![]() the giant that killed my blood knights then broke my line and routed my general while my black coach was run down by warhounds (WTF do magical chariots even DO?). My blood knights collapsed and died super fast when against 1 giant, but I thouht they were anti large? My terrorgiest and vargulf 2v3 2 mammoths and a giant and won, but my grave guard could not break through the one maurader and besereker and were crushed by the skin wolves and fimir. only 3 normal grave guard units, and my terrorgiest and vargulf (my general retreated off the battlefield but was said to be dead once the battle result screen on the campain map. I thought how the hell could I lose this? and fought the battle. Auto resolve said 35% me, 40% them, and 25% mixed. ![]() I had 3 grave guard with great weapons, 7 normal ones, 3 blood knights, 1 terrorgiest, 1 vargulf, 1 black coach, 1 crypt horrors, my strigoi ghoul king generarl (1st fight, was level one) and 2 units of Skeleton Archers of Nehek (Mod I added cause I thouht it was dumb undead can ride horses without falling but cant pull back a bow.) Norsca had 1 maurader, 1 beserker, 1 warhound (Not the ice wolves), 1 Skinwolves, 1 Fimir, 3 javalin throwers, 2 norcan giants, 2 feral mammoths, and 2 generals. I sent one of my fresh full stacks I just finished recruiting in western sylvania, and Vlads constant unit level tick made most them level 4 or 5 before they reached hochland. Norsca took most of the northern empire realms and Kislev (Me and Brittonia and Clan Angrund took the rest) Norsca had nothing in Kislev, nothing in hochland, and 13 units in 2 armies in Nordland. I was on a crusade on chaos, with war on Chaos, Wintertooth, and Norsca. ![]()
