Is the Wonder of the Age Any Good in Patch 5.0? - Empire RoR Unit Focus

So, this is the Regiment of Renown version, packed with a mortar, grenade launchers, aggressive steam and I think it may retain the crow's nest sniper... lot was going on, you tell me! Seeing is believing so more time was spent on the combat than the stat sheet. Plus the regular Land Ship was last video!

You know what else it's not horrible for? Sieges. Park this baby next to the wall and let the grenades pester all that infantry packed on the wall... if you can get the elevation right, anyway. Especially great against, say, Vampire Counts and Warriors of Chaos. They can rarely shoot back.

[@OffToBattle]

Oooooh, I like this one. Pinning with enthusiasm!

[@Canuovea]

@@OffToBattle I have little buy contempt for Daemons and their mortal followers. What better way to show it than blowing up their towers and sitting next to them, bombarding them on the walls (or through a breach) as they fail to do anything to stop it. Besides, I think ammo for the crew might be infinite if you've still got ammo for the main gun... maybe. It's also possible I didn't wait long enough for it to run out.

[@OffToBattle]

@@Canuovea I don't know if ammo of that nature runs out, but it must take a long time..

[@Wanderer-nw2so]

I think one of the age is going to be a very popular pick against factions that love to go wide and doesn't have good range to focus it down like the orcs, beastmen, and to some extent Bretonia and Skaven though the anti-large knights and mad scientist warp guns and artillery are a big threat.

[@OffToBattle]

For the anti-large knights the regular unit might be the better force. Maybe.

[@briar9395]

I was under the impression that the mortar replaced the cannon, not that it was in addition to it, and I had no idea about the steam jets at close-range. Much more excited to use this in an Elspeth campaign, now!

[@OffToBattle]

Yeah, I didn't know beforehand how it all worked out. Handgunners on the regular ver are great, but the RoR definitely isn't slacking.

[@samlambert4770]

It also gets terror over the normal ship. Makes is outstanding at breaking up second pushes and outlasting the enemy with unbreakable

[@OffToBattle]

Think I mentioned it but thanks for reiterating, it is absolutely an improvement over the Fear of the normal unit.

[@nailigniststarzear6689]

there are very few RoR that can change tide of battle and you want to keep for emergency situation...this one surely join that rank

[@OffToBattle]

Yeah, I can see it changing certain situations pretty heavily.

[@Wanderer-nw2so]

I saw one game in the recent turin tournament where one land ship came out and literally turned the tide of the fight completely on its head and I think probably carried the Empire on its back

[@ThePir869]

Tide…of battle. I get it 😂

[@roslolian11]

My favorite Empire unit. I try getting it asap because it and the lord can already carry vs most enemies even if the rest of my army are just basic infantry. Having a cannon and mortar for long range, grenade launchers for mid range and running over opponents and the Steam AoE for short range it is one of most efficient war machines, its always doing something. Elspeth make it even more amazing, adding an active landmine ability, more mass, speed, acceleration, ammo and armor. It's not quite as broken as the Amethyst Landship, but amethyst units are generally cheats lol.

[@OffToBattle]

Wow, favorite? It's impressive, no question. Guess you really do like sailing the terrain in style. Not that I have a problem with that.

[@kirillrivkin4842]

Thank you for the video. Quick clarification- it has both a cannon and a mortar? Do the grenade launchers cause predominately AP or regular damage? Looks impressive regardless

[@wolfschadow6399]

It has both a mortar and a cannon. I do not think the Grenades cause AP damage but I could very well be wrong there as you definitely can look up the stats of the shooters somewhere.

[@OffToBattle]

I THINK it's like the Outriders - Grenade Launchers, so not much AP damage. But even third party sites don't carry that info from what I have access to.

[@Orendiz]

Btw what mod are you using to see all the stats?

[@OffToBattle]

Google "Total War Warhammer Stats", it's a third party site.

[@Orendiz]

@@OffToBattle Makes sense, the UI looked like wh2 anyway

[@OffToBattle]

@@Orendiz Probably intentional. I like the aesthetic

[@alexjohn9546]

The ai just does not know how to fight the landship. I play very hard battle dif no stat changes for ai and solo occupied walled settlements with them. Any anti large cav just gets shredded by the gunners when trying to chase it.

[@OffToBattle]

Well cav still feel grenades, just not as badly as say, Flagellants. Enough of them and it should wreck them too.
