So this is my Doomstack here and I must say I’m absolutely chuffed that it got an 8/10. I think that Legend made a very good and fair assessment of my army, it is certainly a lot more limited in what it can do during sieges but I never really felt that it struggled during a siege because the Fay Enchantress and her team of heroes are so bloody powerful they never had any trouble smashing entire garrisons. The only thing that Legend forgot to mention was my reason for having Henri Le Massif in the army, which is because he provides an army wide buff to Grail Guardians that boosts weapon strength and charge bonus which when coupled with the melee defence buffs that the Fay Enchantress gives them makes them way better than they are in any regular army. Anyway hope you all liked watching my doomstack, this one was certainly a lot more fun than the Bone Giant army I made.

@@ulumulu4228 I agree, all of my other armies are hippogryph spam. But considering how much the Fay Enchantress boosts them I wanted to give her a Grail Guardian army and it’s consistently proved itself to be really viable. The Grail Guardians are super tanky the most I’ve ever lost in a manually resolved battle was a little over 100 men.

A good way to look at Damage Resistance scaling is to look at 89% and 90%. Say a character takes 500 points of damage. With 89% resistance against the attack, they take 55 damage. With 90% resistance, they take 50. That is a very significant difference. After ten attacks, you have effectively taken an eleventh attack despite sustaining the same amount of attacks, for a singular percentage point of difference. Every single point counts, but the higher points count so much more.
@simonkaudelka8231
@simonkaudelka8231 3 жыл бұрын
Maybe a better way of eyplaining why resistances become more effective the more you have is by looking at how long a unit can stay in combat: With 10% resistance, it can stay 1,11-Times as long in battle. With 50% resistance, it can stay 2-Times as long in battle. With 90% resistance, it can stay 10-Times as long in battle.

Legend for my Bretonnian Campaigns I tend to use a mix of Grail Guardians and Grail Knights. The problem that Grail Knights have is that they have such horrid Melee Defense compared to the Grail Guardians. Grail Guardians are straight up better vs Infantry and even Archers in campaign because they are so tanky you just don't lose units with them. Grail Knights are glass cannons. They can punch through enemy monsters and cavalry sure, but they'll usually take a beating doing it. I don't think this army would have performed much better if the stack had been Grail Knights instead. Might have and probably would have won the battle faster but the casualties would have been higher. Also this stack is cheating because it has Henri in it. Henri belongs in Repanse's army. It's the law.

You may not be aware, but the comet spell heaven's casters have does damage to gates as well as all the units on top of it. Not that gates are that hard to bust down with a group of grail knights, but you can thin out their wall defenders with comets while doing significant damage to the gates to make entry quicker, and maybe open an extra breach with the trebuchet. Not the best at sieges still but maybe not as bad as you'd first expect. Mostly i wanted to share that spell quirk.

"Gilded Cuirass" A Bretonnian item which bestows eight armour, melee defense and Regeneration was equipped by The Fay Enchantress. I know this becasue you mpused over the item in the first second of the video. On account of their fantastic armour, ward save, magic and physical resistance they're good against arrows or bullets or the magic attacks of Elven Phoenix. Sheilds will assist mitigating missiles connecting to the rider but I suppose a weakness these knight possess is fire damage so High Elven dragons may challenge you if they can land a hit past these knight's 93~ MD.

Honestly, the knights of Tor Gaval are pretty lackluster. I've tried it, mistwalker buffs, but really there's not much else for it, they're incredibly expensive, have a lower model count than other flying cav, and don't kill very fast. The knights are more like tanks, interrogate grom, get a tomb king in your box, and maybe a dark elf or something that gives some other good buffs. Or the skaven interrogation gives a ton of MD, I think VC and dwarves are a good combo too. Ethereal, and regen, with grom heal, or ethereal, and norsca for berserk. They are amazing for locking down armies, dive them in and arrow blast everything with non magical arrows so you don't kill your knights.

he's done a norscan campaign, so if you look back through his vids you should be able to find it. It does kinda need a rework, but there are a few things you can do to make it easier. One is not expand too fast. If you take over norsca too fast everyone will declare war before you're ready. Making friends with dark elves is also pretty useful. War mammoths are op late game, early on marauder beserkers are very helpful. If you're getting absolutely swarmed by enemies in norsca, then you can abandon and go on a horde type gambit. Not ideal at all, but norsca isn't good at defending and too many enemies can necessitate this. Taking skavenblight plus marigliano makes a decently strong alternate base. Taking out either bretonnia or the empire early can also really help, since you need both of them dead to complete objectives. Vampires and skaven are good friends to ruin dwell your ruins.

Ive searched people having the same issues and things and they said the same thing but I just think it'd be cool if he did a video for it cus Norscans got royally fucked

Norsca is one of my favorite factions. Very challenging, but very rewarding. The first key is you need to unite Norsca, which is super easy to do. You just need one strong army, and then defeat a faction leader in battle. Automatic confederation, no penalties. In the early game, effective use of javelins and chariots is typically strongest. And stay in raid stance to save money, even in your own territory if you have to. Then, you really just need to be careful about how many regular enemies you pick fights with. You want to rush the chaos invasion tree, but you don't want an order tide. So try to pick unpopular, weak factions to raid and raze. The bonuses really help, although some are clearly better than others. Then, you really just need to prepare yourself for the battle with Archaon. Declare yourself the true everchosen, and then your real campaign of conquest can actually start. Prior to that, you gotta play Norsca more or less as they are in the lore. You stay in the north, you fight other Norsca, you only leave to raid, you build up tribute from the dark gods and go on hunts for buffs. It's a slow burn game, it might be 100 turns before you go any further south than northern Kislev. But once you have all the campaign buffs, you're nearly unstoppable.

Sadly, this is not the case. Blessed Field Trebuchets say that they don't hurt friendly units with their explosions, which is true. However, the projectile itself does do friendly fire. Also, Blessed compared to regular Field Trebs do TONS more damage with the missile itself, but less on explosion. Test it out yourself and see! Those Blessed rocks hurt a lot. XD

Empire melee cav is pretty trash, but pistoliers and grenade launcher pistoliers are very nice to have a couple in your army if you like microing, especially the grenade launcher ones can rack up hundreds of kills fairly easily, even in sieges since they actually can arc the grenades onto/over walls.
