Does Chaos just revolve around tons of Hellcannons?

Just one Hellcannon so you can lure AI into attacking and trying to flank it. Chosen are kind of crap so Forsaken are probably the optimal choice for infantry.
Dominic Rivera
Wrong, since theres no price limit in chaos' dosh filled campaign, chosen are literally always going to be better than forsaken. You'd be right if you were talking multiplayer.
Chosen and a hellcannon pretty much.
Gabriel Moore
Don't Forsaken get anti-infantry? Can't be arsed to check right now.

People have already found animation files for Cygors, Ghorgons, elves, and the Mortis engine. So I don't think it'll be too long until the Beastmen are added as the third DLC.
Luis Peterson
So around turn 30 chaos invaded and i was tasked to defeat three stacks with my two empire stacks. Turns out my computer is a potato, because once everything got underway my game ran like Myst, even on low.
What do? It's gonna be a year before i can afford a new $1300 system. Current specs: AMD [email protected], 8gb ram, radeon r9 270x, game is installed on ssd if that matters. Built in late 2014.
Connor Myers
If they do, it doesn't maker them better than chosen. Chosen are likely the strongest infantry in the game, the thing dragging them down (by a lot) is cost. People only bitch about them because they are beyond useless in multiplayer.
Adam James

They get frenzy, not anti-infantry. They do a lot of damage in protracted fights, but they take too much damage to be your only infantry.

Aren't they both pretty much just giant reskins? why would beastmen get two variations of the same giant?

I thought bretonnias whole play-style was just a massive, devastating cav charge to break the enemy, even frontally, and if you didn't manage to do that, you're fucked.

Any beastmen fan correct me if I'm wrong but I think the Ghorgon is melee oriented while the Cygor has an anti magic focus, and throws rocks.

They're good shock cav but they're fucked if they get bogged down in combat. You can't just point and click, that's why in the tabletop you needed archers, trebuchets and infantry to help out.

I don't get this, I don't have a border with these guys and I haven't interacted with them at all. Now I'm in a war with a shitload of factions ages away from me. It would probably take 10 turns by boat just to get armies over there.
Luke Hall
Well, it's the only way the will ever get any kills, so it's understandable. Their units are beyond shit.
Carson Lee
What are Empire Captains really good for? Even with a Gelt army, I'd rather have a Witch Hunter and Warrior Priest than an Empire Captain in the roster. As agents, they're not amazing either.
Carson Cruz
Killing. Point them at the enemy lord, another high value target, or simply put them in the middle of the melee. Having another platform for Hold the Line isn't bad either.

Leo Perry
They almost always do that. Someone is inviting them into their war with you, and that isn't a popup for some reason, only a normal message.
Carter Gomez
AI diplomacy is full retard on higher difficulties. On my most recent Empire campaign I had to pay out the ass to get a trade agreement with Bretonnia and they were the only ones that would accept anything. Then once Chaos's first wave showed up as I was in the middle of removing fang faces from Imperial clay literally every nation broke all treaties with me.
Naturally the entire world was sucking my dick once wave 2 hit and I was able to vassalize half of the world and MA + Trade the other half, but still.
Also the Great Power malus is bullshit, it prevents you from treating with weaker nations that need your help so that when you come in and save them from the greenskins or vamps that are sieging all of their towns they hate you more for it.

Bonuses are bad but when you get his armor the fucker is unkillable. Start with Kholek though, he's amazing and is the hardest to unlock if you start with someone else.

Pretty much only the northern and southernmost parts of Africa really had anything happen historically, the rest of the continent was essentially stuck in subsistence level tribal bullshit for pretty much all of history. Same goes for Australia, not much to do but survive once the hobbits died out.

Thomas Reed
Which of their units doesn't suck ass then? Grail Knights are the only decent unit they have, and that is literally their elite choice. It's barely better than Reiksguard. Pegasi are shit, KotR are shit and peasants obviously are complete shit.
Jose Gray
>want to be a carebear and help people out >can never get treaties going >negative diplomacy for trespassing >negative diplomacy for "actions against x" >negative diplomacy for great power
Probably doesn't help that I play mainly vampire cunts
According to 99% of the anons here, his bonuses are bad, and while he's not "bad", he's not good when compared to arch or kholek.
His quest armor does give him a regen effect, though how good it is I don't know.
Juan Edwards
They were probably too preoccupied with survival to bother developing a better pointy stick to poke other people with
David Rodriguez
They have the best archers in the game, their spear units is very cost effective and the yeoman and knights of the realm also are pretty decent for their cost. Which is NOT the case of grail knights.
Pegasus knights are also decent flying units to counter other flying units but are a bit too expensive imo; The trebuchet is also very good
Nathaniel Martin
They're dragon ogres. The shaggots are like super fast chaos giants so they're great. The normal ones are also pretty good as cavalry, if expensive.
Robert Ortiz
They weren't actually. Only the minority of tribes in those areas lived in harsh conditions and those were usually the more war-like ones that DID develop better technology. They could keep living by simple hunting and gathering (which is a terribly ineffective strategy to get food) because of how easy it was for them.
Necessity is the mother of invention and they could get by without it for the most part.
Justin Martin
The vast majority of the day was spent trying to scrape together enough calories to feed yourself and any children that managed to survive childbirth,disease, and African wildlife so there wasn't much time to spend on making pointier sticks or killing each other. When tribal disputes did happen they were typically settled with combat that was more like dodgeball with spears than actual warfare and people rarely died from it. The possibility of actual warfare was there but too costly to pursue since the deaths of even a handful of men meant a bunch more women and children back home starved to death.
Noah Rogers
>They have the best archers in the game
Considering their competition are orc and goblin archers, that really says nothing.
>their spear units is very cost effective
And yet they are still complete shit, just at reasonable price AKA Bretonnian version of skellingtons.
>yeoman and knights of the realm also are pretty decent for their cost.
Not exactly high praise, all things considered.
>Pegasus knights are also decent flying units to counter other flying units
So only really useful against VC then, which can swarm Pegasi with much lower cost and expendable flying units, and more than likely even kill them.
This leaves them with one arguably good unit, 2 decent ones, one designated throwaway unit and overpriced garbage for the rest. Compared to the other factions, they are beyond shit. And the worst part is, they will hardly get any more units, unless CA is allowed to create their own.
Jose Miller
Oh and this doesn't contradict what I said. It's just the result of it, their population was kept low as hunting and gathering isn't effective enough to produce the huge population surplus that made farming, domesticating animals and bigger communities necessary.
Levi Gomez
YOOOOooooo *japanese drums start playing*
Robert Hernandez
I really like hellstorm rocket batteries Has anyone tried a heavy handgunner comp? I feel like I'll get completely destroyed if I don't get some defensive line
Juan Price
I'm just hoping that they do a complete overhaul of the faction come release.
Rebalanced stats for them, cool mechanics, more units, etc.
Bretonnian cavalry need to hit like a fucking tank, not the shit show they are now
Brody Watson
>Pretty much only the northern and southernmost parts of Africa really had anything happen historically, the rest of the continent was essentially stuck in subsistence level tribal bullshit for pretty much all of history.
Except that's wrong. West Africa saw a ton of shit happen, especially around the Sahel, and you had what more or less could be described as kingdoms from what is now Ghana down to the coastal Congo.
Africa is more like 4-5 areas of civilization or something approaching it, separated by impassable jungles or deserts.
It's boring compared to the rest of the world because hardly any of these areas interacted with anyone else, and each is really small in comparison to the entirety of connected Eurasia.
Asher Carter
So if they're adding Cygors, wouldn't that technically make them monstrous artillery? They throw giant fucking rocks, so I really hope they'll get to fuck shit up
