Look, Legend, people are catching on. If they send you a 'doomstack' with a mage in it, you're just going to stash everything in the trees and play with the mage for 20 minutes.

As for wizards in it, I think it could be beneficial, archaon with fire cloak, and fire blades, a shadows wizard with miasma and mindrazor, and a death caster with doom and darkness. Cast right that's something like +30-40 MA, MD and like almost 100% increased weapon damages which stack with apocalyptic charge bonuses. It's completely unnecessary as well which to me makes it even better but seeing a unit of lances karate chop two units of grails or demis, satisfaction.

@@mcmarkmarkson7115 Both yes and no. Stat wise they were the best cav in the game when the game came out, just like the chosen was the best infantry. But like the Chosen it was an obscene price and upkeep for them in the campaign, and you could get access to much better units. But unlike the chosen you didn't get them before MUCH later and it required its own building as well. Which was time and resources better spent on other buildings. Not to mention that shock cav isn't THAT good on higher difficulties. In multiplayer it was kinda the same story. It was the most powerful cav unit, but they were so expensive it wasn't worth the money most of the time.

Yeah but the point of reference he used was the great stag knight stack which was a 6/10, so since this is better than that, a 7/10 is certainly called for, I think it's definitely close enough to 7 to be there, and with a wizard maybe it'd be an 8, but I don't really think it'd be an 8 then, mainly cause with Shaggoths if you cast a spell on them, they just don't care, for Chaos Knights they'd take more damage from spells. So would that be potentially make it so that a wizard isn't worth a full point, possibly. But I do think this is a viable army for people with good micro, but only really with Archaon at the helm, anyone else, not so much. And Shaggoths are still better.

@@grade14 That is certainly true, but burning head would also do even less damage to shaggoths due to them being single entities. But yes so long as the enemy has noticeably lower armor, burning head would be ok to use. It'd be more of a problem with going up against units with high armor, because then burning head would be less effective and so you might consider using another spell with high ap damage. That said, if you can get situations like in the video where the AI is crowding around your heroes and such, keeping your knights away from the blob and casting flame storm would work rather well.

I think you should also rate the stacks according to how fun they are to play. Because yes, Shaggots will easily smash almost any non-doomstack army, but using them gets tedious after a while, since every battle will be exactly the same. Same with any other single entity stack. But this cavalry stack is strong enough to win most conceivable battles AND forces you to use your brain while playing, making it much more fun.

Chaos knights with lances already have an anti-infantry bonus. They just need a higher charge bonus. I think chaos knights with swords are completely inferior compared to the lance version since you are not supposed to be using cavalry as melee infantry in warhammer, and the lances have a charge bonus, if you test it out the swords take more casualties while cycle charging than the lances because of a lower charge bonus. Cavalry were strong in previous total wars, a single charge from heavy cavalry at a high-tier heavy infantry unit, and you can obliterate 100% of the infantry unit in 5 seconds with 0-2 losses. In warhammer 2 "heavy cavalry" is more like melee cavalry and they are more useful for chasing ranged infantry than for dealing with melee infantry.

Out of curiosity: does it make sense to charge one enemy unit with 2 yours from the same side? I feel like entities are just stuck in each other

@datuputi777 3 жыл бұрын
no and yes. because there's some space beetween the units they get a bit of advantage 2 v1 but it becomes diminishing returns quiet quickly at 3v1 or 4v1 (attacking at same side).

Hey guys how do you move all of selected units freely ? Like without even creating control groups Legend does it often, I reckon it's something I've got to press on the keyboard but I seem to have tried everything and I can't do it ^^'

Not completely sure what you're asking, but you might be asking about Alt + left drag (can then also use Ctrl to change facing). I only learned that from Legend, and now I can't play any of the older Total Wars because they don't have it.

Shock cavalry is pretty damn good on normal or even hard, assuming you can micro it well enough. Having 2 units per army is quite nice, fun, and even fairly practical imo (depending on their quality and synergy with the rest of the army though, obviously).

It's mostly a matter of personal preference. It's easier unit management, but when they start getting jumbled up in the fight, it can get a bit awkward to sort out. As noted, depending on whether you lock the control groups or not, when just moving around the map, their formations can be a pain (as they just line up one unit deep no matter what), so clicking to attack is sometimes better, but it does depend on the unit itself (monster vs infantry etc.).

I think you should probably reevaluate your rating system for this series... Im seriously struggling to come up with an army that you would rate in the lower half that could be considered a doomstack. Maybe call this a 4/10 for surprisingly not complete crap?

Depends on the scale of the units. They were probably playing in ultra large so single entity units get extra XP to compensate the extra units in the battlefield

Just for reference, since this scored a 7, what is a 5? Is there a zero? If an army requires sophisticated technical execution and can be replaced by superior units for little difference in cost, how does it qualify for a doomstack?

I would give it 5 out of ten - first of all putting more then one hero of each type in an army as chaos is impossible - you have one cap per horde and even then it has to build 2 buildings for them. And you really want exalted heroes spying on campaign map to not get yourself in some deep shit. So this army is WAY worse then Shagoth spam.
