Archaon The Ever-Chosen Destroyer Embraces The Gift Of The Chaos Gods! | Age Of Wonders 4

[@Fableheim]

Hello everyone and welcome back to Age of Wonders 4! Archaon the Everchosen starts things off by discovering a trick full of despair at 7:30 before challenging the new Golden Wonder introduced with the Golem Update at 17:16. After embracing the gift of Slaanesh at 36:11, the Three-Eyed King is recalled to liberate his Dark Fortress from Isgrimm's aggression at 1:04:54 and 1:18:25. With the Tome of Devastation in hand starting at 1:39:04, Archaon marches to offer Isgrimm as sacrifice to the Dark Pantheon -- thanks for watching!

7:20 "I've been attacked by peasants." *Chooses Auto Resolve with good odds* *Loses a unit despite having vastly superior forces* *Heavy Audible Sigh* *Proceeds to manually retry because a single loss is unacceptable/offensive* Brother I feel that pain, the Auto Combat could be worse but sometimes the AI makes the U.S. government seem intelligent and effective.

[@Fableheim]

The Auto-Resolve is a complete enigma to me. 13v6 against peasants? Lose the Fury. 6v6 Golden Wonder at 59:22? Flawless Victory. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

"petition to make a mod to disable the item forge for the AI" YES! I want that so badly. The AI is 99% of the time making total garbage and then 1% of the time you find the best item ever, so I feel like I have to check every other turn whether I'm not missing something amazing

[@Fableheim]

I've yet to see that 1% best item. XD

Fun episode! Balor is awesome! Your resources seem to be going well despite the Chosen destroyer. Im a bit sad that you discovered ur Doom overload hack. On one rpg hand it makes sense Choas would use any tool at thier disposal and don't care about Honor but then on stragey loving hand it makes it soo easy lol. Maybe Blint will figure out a way to recruit Magebane's 😂 😂 😂 And based on ur hoof lady comments I think u may be into demons 😂 😂 😂

The economy is starting to roll thanks to the later Chaos Imperium talents, but I still feel like I have to be a little tepid about overspending. I'm hoping that the snowball is about to start rolling as I march on the Dawi. I 100% have a thing for demons and I blame the Desire Demons from Dragon Age.

The laughter of the thirsting gods echoes loudly through the immaterium 😈

[@Fableheim]

Soon that is all that shall remain. {:

The warbreeds are more like the minotaurs of khorne to me and boy oh boy can they hit also been enjoying this playthrough too bad nurgle has to be left out

[@Fableheim]

Ohhhh, that's a good point! I blissfully forgot about the Beastmen. XD Grandfather Nurgle will get his day... probably.

[@alastortheworshipperofkhorne]

@@Fableheim I could never forget about my beastie boys especially taurox the brass bull the Chad of beastmen

[@Fableheim]

@@alastortheworshipperofkhorne I'd love to recreate the gigachad himself but I don't think it's possible right now. Maybe the next DLC's Primal Nature stuff will make that a reality.

[@Kris_Lighthawk]

If routing units are prevented from running away in any way (immobilized, completely surrounded or even all openings in a city wall blocked) they will attack if they can.

[@Fableheim]

That makes sense!

[@Maalithian]

You've persuaded me back into a Archaeon playthrough in TWW3 and how could you do this to me lol

I feel like you forgot about the ritual of alacrity on your outposts. Makes it so you regain all movement and half your health back and you can do it anytime you want with a 2 turn cooldown. Would save you a lot of time and make fighting a lot easier.

[@Fableheim]

That happens every Barbarian playthrough, but I'll try to do better. XD

[@richyrich6099]

@Fableheim All good, man. I did a Castlevania role playing game where I played as Dracula as a Chosen Destroyer and the only way I gained any momentum in any of the games I played was through spamming outposts and using ritual of alacrity nonstop until I unlocked teleporters. Was a major pain too cause I had seals victory on too and I still won lol. Super challenging but fun game.

[@AngryGerbils]

My Warhammer knowledge is all 40K. Where does necromancy fall in terms of Chaos?

[@Fableheim]

Afaik, it doesn't. Necromancy was mastered and created by Nagash, who became a demigod of sorts that personifies Death itself. In a weird roundabout way, Necromancy actually opposes Chaos. Ironically, Nagash and Iratus share the same goal: an eternal kingdom of Undeath.

Let’s gooo

[@AngryGerbils]

It is Eastasia.

[@Fableheim]

Thanks! :D
