It's good to see Skullcrushers performing well here but I still wish that CA would make them closer to War Bear Riders: lower model count, high HP, elite monstrous cavalry like they were in tabletop. They actually lose to the bear boys on the charge at the moment and that shouldn't be happening to a unit that costs 300g more and fills a similar role.

Tbh, when they announced them, i thought it's going to be a 16 stack or less with a lot of mass each that can charge through a infantry unit without slowing down.. Instead they're just a bit heavier heavy cav and meanwhile, aspiring champions that are just a bit better than chosen 1:1 turned out to be the elite 16 stack and suck ass..

Also worth noting there's a leadership bonus for charging and winning fights. Also, when the Sentinel was taking damage it may not have been listed as "faster and stronger enemies nearby" so another penalty removed. Also being close to a lord or hero gives leadership buffs too so being closer to the lord also helps. I'm not sure if there's hidden calcs based on the balance bar, but there might be where the sentinel took damage and thus that team had less cp or whatever the metric is called. It seems to make a difference but i don't know if it does besides army losses penalties being calculated.

just a note. when opponent runs an expensive unit in your cheap one, that's exactly time to cast Talons of The Night. Even better when they attack your single unit with some expensive unit. I would say this build had too many crane gunners to protect properly. maybe drop some and bring war balloon with rockets instead? Just park it above spears and blast whatever comes close range.

@@cheesus7672 As a whole, Bret infantry is the worst in the game. They basically have an inferior version of everything the empire has. The only infantry that has worse stats are clan rats and basic skeletons, but they have thousands of more HP and the skeletons don't route. Their infantry also peaks at Squires which are the weakest and lowest tier "elite" infantry in the game. Their ranged infantry also peaks with peasant bowmen... To be fair though, neither of them are supposed to have impressive infantry. Even Greatswords aren't that elite by Empire standards. The main things that separate them from regular state troops is that they're given better equipment and they have more experience so they're braver and more disciplined (this meant more in TT). In purely practical terms, Dwarf warriors were an equally elite and capable infantry in TT. Just like Bretonnia, the Empire's true elites are on horseback (or manning expensive equipment)

@@SuperThest I would think the bloodletters would win, as the Krimson Killaz are standard rank 9 black orcs but with splash attacks, which are mostly useful against low health infantry.

@@noahhaller4540 Bloodletters aren't low HP infantry. They effectively have 115 HP each. Regular black orcs would likely cause very little overkill on the charge, but lose 8 damage on average on all of their regular attacks to overkill (compared to 3 with splash attacks). In a way, regular black orcs would do less damage, but they might kill models faster, which is also important for actually winning.

@@SuperThest Thats what I was thinking, the ROR advantage of Krimson Killaz makes them the best chaff clearers in the game, but only provides marginal benefit against other elite infantry, such as Hellforged Host. Meanwhile the ROR advantage of HH is extra armor, always useful, and a twice as quick charge on Hellblade, along with having the best melee stats, charge bonus, of any infantry.

I still think that an unbreakable SEM like the Sentinel should have a crumbling mechanic. Give it super high leadership so it's still really strong, but having an entity of that strength remain to the very end, to me, is just annoying. Imagine if a Rogue Idol, dragon or Shaggoth was unbreakable for example.
