The great thing about war hydras is that they can be made free in a black ark as long as you give quartermaster and have the landmark at clar Karond so it’s a good army to have in a black ark as it can take out most of the pirates that might attack your black arks

I think the quality of shade spam I never really hear people talk about, but to me is by far the most important is how quick it is to replace full armies. 2-3 black arks can churn out full armies of rank 9 shades every turn. It doesn't matter to me in the slightest if a shade army can't beat 4 armies, or if they get wiped out, because you'll have another army just as strong up and running next turn anyways.

As the creator of the Loremaster Doomstack said in the comment, he didn't include Teclis in the army to prove that this doomstack only needs itslef to work. A doomstack that needs support of a mage or abilities is not a doomstack. It can be a very strong army, or a simple unit spam, but not a doomstack. I'm really wondering if this army could have win without the mage and the Black Arch spells (which sure he used a lot despite saying he would not relate on them too much, since they are not part of the doomstack)

I like the hydra spam. It moves fast on the campaign map, it heals in battle and it makes offensive sieges - the only part of the game that gets really dull - very quick and easy to fight. It may not score the most impressive victories, but it will handle most enemies and situations just fine if you don't send it against overwhelming force without support. Even here, lightning strike and auto resolve would each have solved the problem.

I use hydra spam quite a lot and gotta say this is not a greatest doomstack that DE can use, but it is the easiest one to use. All you need to do is spam hydras, you can give them a medusa shrine or what's the name of it to buff hydras and debuff the enemy, but they tend to get killed easily. I would give it 8/10. It is a good army just so many masters, too many in my opinion. Also when I was using that kind of army I managed to beat 2,5 stack of Reikland with similar troops. My heroes (melee lord, wizard and death hag) got rekted, but hydras carried it on and won. I think that they perform better in a blob.

There are some options with Dark Elves. You can go Shade spam with pretty much any lord. You can use a Darkshard army with a bit of frontline. You can use a Monster spam, like dragons or Hydras. The different stacks will get different bonuses depending on the Lord's Name of Power as well.

In general DE monsters are extremely inefficient in what they do not because they are weak but because of shades. Shades are just too good and will absolutely demolish 1.5 stack before they run out of ammo as long as they have a frontline and with barbstorm they are just overkill. Black dragons still retain their usefulness for taking out artillery and weaker flying entities and maybe kharibdyss though overshadowed by BG. Their roster is fun and with the names of power and you can definitely experiment with witch elf/SoS/HGE but at the end of the day when tackling the order tide only shades and black guards prevail.

I use Shades as the front line to protect my Shades. I find they can hold their own in melee with the upside that they also have a killer ranged attack. To take out artillery I like using the lord and a dragon or two, but tbh I don't really need it because shades have stalk.

Just for confirmation because I'm not entirely sure, is the role of the War Hydra in an army basically the anti-infantry equivalent of the Kharibdyss? Or have I got that wrong?
@wandalor1
@wandalor1 3 жыл бұрын
Well, war hydras don't have anti infantry bonus so they are anti anything really. Considering how much they are buffed by lord and heroes in this particular army they are very strong. Plus unlike Kharibdyss, Hydra does have regen which makes it sturdier.

@@soulseptem5281 Maybe, it's definitely a lot more difficult to win this battle with shade spam (obviously a shade spam could win this situation easily with Lightning Strike, but I'm guessing what you want is to assume we don't have Lightning Strike). But there are other factors that go into a rating, like Shade spam is much easier to recruit, it costs much less in upkeep, and it doesn't take Masters away from your provinces to hurt you economically. So you could have more armies doing more stuff if you rely primarily on Shades.

@soulseptem5281 3 жыл бұрын
@@IAmebAdger Correct however the ratting is about how strong the doomstack is. So if you want to talk about shad spam you have to apply the same rules. Yes shads are cheaper and can be recruited 1 tier earlier than hydra's. However money is less of a factor with DE than other races such as WE. That is why im saying this army should not be compared to the HE doomstacks but instead to the other armies you could recruit as DE. I personally do a mix of shade spam at the begging of a campaign and then switch to hydra spam. This is mainly due to hydra spam having amazing auto resolve as you could see in the video.

I'm kinda disappointed in how you're using the hydras. . . You've commended their breath attacks before saying they were better than dragons b/c of the angle, and I agree. You chose to over micro your wizard instead of using your army optimally. This saddens me. You could've done it, but wanted to be lazy to test their abilities. I agree the stack's ease of use gives it points, but by decreasing it's points there, it would gain as many in strength with using the breaths. You're skilled enough to micro it all, I've seen you do things like it, I'm just a bit disappointed. Sorry for the rant. I'm sure you're tired.
