Oh so that's why Warp Lightning Cannons are insanely good: they cause explosion damage in addition to their standard damage. Maybe another reason apart from the rapid lightning impacts why my FPS drops to poo poo whenever I'm zoomed in on a target catching fire. This is awesome because your Warlock Engineers also get Extra Powder, which gives a bonus to explosion-type damage to nearby units. gently caress, Skaven are awesome.

Afriscipio posted:Help! Teclis is in my back yard and he won't leave... It might have something to do with me sending Queek to his back yard and taking 5 settlements. The forests in warhammer 2 are so thick with trees that it's pretty much impossible for a archer to do anything in them, they can drain their entire ammo any barely scratch their target if they are parked in the middle of a forest.

Night10194 posted:Do you mean a mod wherein every now and then 4 random guys and gals show up and totally wreck all your rats, or a mod for Vermintide wherein you go and have high elves talk down to Kerillian for being an elf hick while you all fight rats alongside lizards and poo poo. I was originally thinking a mod where the AI skaven have stupidly low recruitment/upkeep costs so they can drown the world in rats, but a couple of buff heroes vs skaven horde is also acceptable.

Game is fun, loving my playable Jurassic park simulator. What do goons think of putting Mazdamundi on a mount instead of the hoverchair?

I always liked the mods for all hero armies and poo poo so I'm hoping I get to take a bunch of elite rats on a mission thanks to some modder. Also rats really need warplock jezzails as a ranged option for sniping heroes. You don't have much that can go toe to toe so having a small squad of tier one operators who are easy to kill but snipe characters would be cool.

I really wish they'd fix this bug where you tell your siege weapons to fire at a tower and instead they move towards it, despite having a totally unobstructed line of sight. Anyone know what triggers it or if there's some way to get them to stop moving and just loving kill the tower?

DOCTOR ZIMBARDO posted:ogres will be the main anti-Chaos faction Swords don't seem effective in the slightest, and I have zero idea why. They have the same stats as the spears, but when I put them together the swords get wiped out twice as fast/break twice as fast as the spears, so ??? I usually do a line of about 5-6 spears protecting my 8ish Darkshards, Focus 2 Shards on either side to kill the Marauder Cav that "flanked" you, and watch them easily shred them up. Have Malekith/your other heavy hitters focus down the frontline. Chariots will break through, but I've never seen them do particularly high damage to Darkshards, and it's trivial for Malekith to get over there and slaughter them. The bigger question of the day for me is how the gently caress I beat this Celestial Storm army with nothing but Darkspears, Darkshards, and a Bolt Thrower. I've got Black Guards/Hydras on the way, but they are several turns away from even getting the unit production buildings down, and these lizards are rampaging through my poo poo now.

Swordsmen are good at taking out spearmen and that is about it. The whole thing as dark elves is you need as many as your guys to survive until murder time. Spears do that job better. Once murder time happens, it doesn't matter what you have.

Holy gently caress gate garrisons are no joke and it's very painful that you can't bring siege equipment to them. I got so intensely owned it's actually a little funny (but mostly sad and painful and I'm savescumming because this campaign is easy and I can't take a blow to my ego like that). Blackguard are p loving good you guys. Also, anyone else having the problem with the High Magic phoenix fire spell firing near walls? Twice now I've aimed it next and perpendicular to a wall, and twice it's gone off in some other direction.

Third World Reggin posted:Swordsmen are good at taking out spearmen and that is about it. That and your darkshards and shades are probably going to be doing the lions share of the murdering anyway. Hold the line longer so that the archers are getting their murder in. Is it just me or is the sorceress castable version of fireball way, way better than the bound version you get from Teclis/Ruby Ring? The sorceress version seems like it penetrates deeper into ranks and generally does more damage. With a fire sorceress I consistently target a unit with it behind 3-4 other units and it mulched through each unit and kept on going out the back side. With Teclis's bound fireball it won't even pass the first unit if it doesn't whiff entirely. My fire sorceress had 400 kills one battle due to slinging fireballs into the side flank of a battle and having it pass through the entire front.

Been playing a lot of this, shades own, skaven as a whole own. The only faction that's a bit meh is high elves but Teclis and Tyrion are cool heroes, a think Tyrion is like the fightiest non monster in the game. I've already played both skaven starts and find the map a little limiting and boring though is my problem. Also every faction that isn't skaven feels a bit boring after them. I really need my blood dlc and steam workshop methinks

As Skaven it's real easy to just move Continent, just find an empty ruin and start an empire abroad instead

It's a little sad that I have to reject all his requests to be buddies, since he's almost ready to start the fourth ritual. He wants to be friends so badly after I started razing Ulthuan.

Has anyone else hit a but wherein an AI army that has a Ruby Ring of Ruin will apparently start making GBS threads out rapid fire fireballs nonstop for the better part of the first 5 minutes of a battle? I had a battle as lizardmen vs a high elf w/ the ruby ring and the second my terradons got in range it was like he was a magical fire AA gun.

Don't fight large stuff, ram it into infantry who don't have anti-large (or anti-large infantry who are otherwise engaged) then ideally run it away and charge somewhere else/again.

Wait till your infantry have engaged and then sweep in the doomwheels from the flanks or rear. They're best against thin infantry formations where they can cycle charge.
