Skarbrand's 6.0 Campaign is Substantially Better, Reworked - Total War: Warhammer 3 Immortal Empires

[@Costin_Gaming]

Yeah I know I made a previous video, but that was during embargo still. I freaking love these changes. I despised Skarbrand because I felt it was a one note gimmicky campaign. This? This is superb.

i kinda wished skarbrand to have his own mechanic, currently skulltaker has the most tools to curbstomp the campaign, Arbaal is a world tour but the victory conditions are wack

[@4dealliance598]

Short victory condition will take most peeps the whole campaign

[@mortalcoil8585]

The world tour part is crazy. I just imagine he's a really popular heavy metal band.

[@craftycraff6083]

How are the victory conditions wack? It requires you to engage with his unique campaign mechanic.

[@JimIBobIJones]

Skarbrand is almost balanced thanks to not having his own mechanic. Skulltaker is ridiculously broken. My campaign literally has 100s of bloodhosts that can shake off attrition and shit out new bloodhosts every turn (you get additional bloodhost for defeating a lord with his cloak powers for free). Skulltaker also replenishes his army fully after beating a lord and lords being beaten (including by other lords and blood hosts) replenishes his movement. Given that the pillar upgrades turn even the smallest bloodhost army into something that can beat most late game full stacks (guaranteed bloodthirster and soulgrinder + bunch of exalted bloodletters) its just too much. All you need to do is send a hero into enemy territory, find a minor settlement with a lord in it - teleport Skulltaker in and within that single turn you can destroy the whole faction and have a dozen bloodhosts ready to wipe a whole continent.

Definitely made khorne way better. I love this

[@JimIBobIJones]

Bloodhosts are just broken in the new update. Skarbrand isn't quite as bad but Arbaal and Skulltaker (especially Skulltaker with his god damn cloak) are just insane.

Yeh. I found the original Skarbrand campaign fun upon first play but upon playing again some time later it was boring. I never auto-resolved so much as I did with Skarbrand. Got to settlement, besiege, auto-resolve, sack/raise. Rinse and repeat. I know Warhammer is Arcade Total War for kids but this got tiresome really quickly. I haven't tried WH3 after this latest update and I won't spend £20 on another DLC as none of them are worth that ( I will wait for a bargain on Steam) but I may give it a try just to see what's what. Let's see if spilling blood and collecting skulls is as fun as it was before. ;-)

[@SirHector1999]

Wild take.

[@sdeluen]

All the khorne lords are op asf. I get bored with them pretty quick

[@greathornedyak9904]

Yeah nah. With the level of expense and lack of income you get as Khorne, this is a solid nerf. His campaign needed to be like that.

[@tombet1616]

yeah, more powercreep... -.-

[@N4chtigall]

I'm not really fan of new changes. I still think that the older version was more balanced, even considering the possibility of steamrolling the world in 10 turns. At the begnning of Khorne demon factions there isnt enough skulls and then, once you get through certain point you will have them so much that you will never even have a chance to use it. Its completely unbalanced and unfun imo.
