Started an empire playthrough in me after chilling on the game for half a year. Gelt is actually fun time play now. The power bar says I'm mismatch, but the golden dogs that just killed an eighth of the enemy army disagree :gettin:

Any suggestions for a Grimgor orc game? Every battle I win I end up with at least 3 or 4 of my units mostly dead which makes it hard to take a city before they've replenished their own troops. I'm about 10 turns in and have a full stack of mostly orc boyz but lost my black orc unit fending off a double stack.

orc boys are good enough at killing, but they're bad as staying alive. Go for big uns asap, they have a lot more staying power

Ca's best campaigns are the ones that have you on a tight time limit so you have to rush and make risky moves instead of turtleing up, which does a decent job of covering up for lackluster 4x gameplay by minimizing the amount of timenspemt.. The minicampaigns in Napoleon total war we're great for this. Here your army, tear rear end, if you gently caress up then whellllllp get gud cause you got like 25 turns to finish this poo poo

I will never understand what they were thinking when they designed the sigmarines.

"how do we add space marines to a setting with no space?"

The Chaos Warriors already manage that while looking about 100% less stupid, which is saying a lot because even they have silly looking edgelord outfits.

The large army battles wouldn't be so bad if the deployment of them wasn't so clunky

Sure, let me align my second army that trickles in one unit at a time on the opposite side of the map while the battle has already started

Best part is when they spawn behind your army. Hell yeah I'm gonna bushwack half the enemy army before the can even organize

so do you non cav users just not chase fleeing units and cut them down so you don't have the deal with them in a follow up battle or nah

Also never saw the point of empire knights. Reiksguard do the job so much better and if im just looking for a harasser/ flanker pistoliers and outriders do the job better, especially since running down fleeing units will level them up enough to where they punch harder than you'd think.

The trick with running units down with ranged cav is to just let them shoot things and only close to melee when they're out of ammo in my experience. Also aim for units that are still mostly intact. A unit of like 10/100 dudes is loving nothing and will take a lot longer to whittle down to half compared to a unit that's at 70/100

The AI flat out cannot be allowed to do many of the tricks human players use because many of them will be very, very unfun to be on the recieving side of.

plus the ai gets its own tricks. boy that fortress managed to fight off that orc army with massive losses. better hope there's not a second orc army attacks it from the other side, in my territory, which had no orcs in it last turn

i honestly liked the vortex map and when I had factions that ignored the actual vortex I kinda preferred it to mortal empires
