A few takeaways: - this is exactly the kind of gimmick army I have imagined when messing around with Cryswar's Peacehammer...like, this concept, but with way more variety to make it seem like indiscriminate immolation of all kinds: a Firebelly, some Warpfire Throwers, a Flamer or two, Fire Arrow Peasant Bowmen, Infernal Ironsworn...led by Taurox or Kostaltyn, I think. Even more impractical than this, but would be fun as hell to smash Vampiric Ascension or The Wild Hunt with - I have become interested lately in TK as a whole and while I have yet to play a campaign as them, they are a 2nd-tier race I am considering to jump into next. It got me thinking: would anyone here say the stacks Khemri used here were...I dunno, good? (I am aware that Legend scrolled through the 2nd stack so quickly at the start that it was a bit difficult to see its full extent) - 10:54 I humbly request that you take that back
@dark_side_cookies8 ай бұрын
Holy crap that was probably the fastest wipe I've ever seen of not one but two reinforcing stacks. O_O I also wonder if this would be more effective with 1-2 Irondrakes w/ Trollhammer torpedoes, or Cannons or Organ Guns. I get there's a theme but there's definitely a lack of anti-large units. That said, it's definitely better than a Gyro doomstack. I feel those are too limited on ammo, even with Engineers.

I find that artillery is fairly specialized, it's better to have 2-3 units of artillery of different varieties, like 1 each of cannons, flame cannons, and maybe organ guns (as far as dwarfs go). That way it mitigates their individual weaknesses and they compliment each other. Artillery seems to be one of the few unit types where variety is better than single unit spams.

The Iron Drakes flame thrower version is good but not as good as Torpido launchers I also create kinda same doom stack for grombrindal but with some big differences For example, I always bring torpedo launchers alongside flame throwers Flame throwers are great against massive hordes of chaff but for killing elite stuff the torpedo launchers are the deal And also Instead of bringing artillery to his army, I bring Gyrobombers as they also get benefit from the buffs Grombrindal provides for the army I bring Grombrindal with 1 Thane 2 rune smiths and 3 master engineers and for the units, I bring 6 Iron drakes (3 from each type) and 8 Gyrobombers For the tactic, I always do corner camping and place the Iron drakes in front of my Gyrobombers because they have a much longer range when upgraded via technology and can cover Iron drakes if any enemy slipped through their firewall Also Gyrobombers always give me the ability to go hunt enemy dangerous single entities and long-range missile threats I single-handedly defeated the chaos invasion on the legendary difficulty in Warhammer 2 with this army combination with Grombrindal in 4 turns by destroying 14 stacks of chaos forces including Archeon, Sigvald, and Kholeck which most of them were during the AI turn and was defensive and the enemy could bring more than 1 stack I could easily go after single entities and snipe them all over the battlefield and allow only the infantry to reach my front line

A Gyrobomber or two would be really useful in this army to focus on single entities & swoop in and take out dangerous ranged units like plague claw catapults before they can fire. Also can be used to make ai blob and draw out approaches. I feel like skaven would be really annoying to fight with this. In my dawi ranged stacks I like to bring a unit of hammerers that just hangs back to deal with menace below and let the catapults fire asap again and deny a chance to trigger warp bomb by killing&moral shocking fast. IMO any more than 3 irondrakes is too much in most armies. They deal damage quickly enough and have enough ammo to better bring something else and cover their weaknesses. Not bringing Runesmiths wastes a lot of free infinitely repeatable damage and buffs.

I'd not even class this as a doomstack as I don't see a faction it's particularly strong against and you'd have to have a lot of things go in your favour (certain maps your artillery wouldn't even be able to find line of sight). I suspect Norsca under the AI would be an easy win as they rarely make use of their faster or high tier units but they're rarely a threat to Dwarf factions anyway in the campaign.
