There's a unit you missed in this video. There's a new Regiment of Renown Greenskin unit with Crossbows added in this update. They're called Ruglud's Armoured Orcs.

To be honest I love the mangler squigs animation because it's so chaotic & funny to see the goblins on them holding on for dear life

[@GordonTaylorThomas]

I have to disagree with your take on the webflinger, it's an incredibly good unit. Greenskins don't rely on their artillery to win the battle for them, but they need them to perform certain jobs such as counter-battery fire against some of the really strong single entity artillery that's in the game these days, such as dreadquakes and ogre artillery. Whilst doom divers can do this, a crew of goblins is a huge liability due to the sheer amount of army ability summons and powerful chaff like furies that are in WH3. What the webflinger gives you is an artillery piece that can do the specific jobs that Greenskins need their artillery to do without the liability of a goblin crew. Then, once it's done its job or ran out of ammo, you still have an aracknarok.

[@Weberkooks]

uhh you havent even tested it yet. 0 chance you can say its incredible without actually using it

[@clockwark]

Yep, it adds versatility to the roster. Also, far more mobile than any existing artillery they have. If there's a unit in this DLC that seems completely unnecessary, I'd say it's the bolt thrower. Don't think the greenskins needed anti-large artillery in the first place, and rock lobbers are fine for cheap artillery. No idea what Nathan is talking about with the greenskins' version of Chosen, but I would've strongly preferred to see that instead. Still, I'm looking forward to this DLC!

[@hircenedaelen]

@@Weberkooks it's called speculation

[@GordonTaylorThomas]

@@Weberkooks Shut up idiot

[@reddestliquid]

Regardless of all that, as a proper DLC unit it is still exceptionally disappointing. It does feel more like it should have been a base game unit. Hell it's basically just a blue arachnarok with very minor model tweaks. I don't despise it, but two minor variants in one DLC is rough.

[@LordEsel88]

Love the Mangler Squigs! XD

[@curtisbrown547]

I actually think the archnarok flinger is going to be really good actually. It's not the speed debuff im concerned with, but the constant malus to vigor it can apply. Vigor is such an important stat, and losing it early can mean your units perform significantly less effective. This will be great when you synergize it with hordes of goblins to create a really frustrating, sticky front line that bogs down enemies for ages, while also still countering large center piece units. The debuff for a exhausted unit is absolutely mortifying.

[@longbow857]

Goblins that hold the line for ages? Do you play on easy with stat boosts or what am I missing here?

[@liamcullen3035]

Exhaustion penalties are now shown on the stat cards too! So the benefits of the webflinger’s vigour malus will be even more visible

[@NoxKallig456]

Had to do a double listen to the “200 savage orcs painted in 7 days” that was so casually said. Respect!

[@darthnihilus6211]

I feel the Aracknarok Flinger is for themed Ranged armies. Slow the aproaching enemies with the Web ammunition and deal the actual damage with Doom Divers. If the enemy reaches your frontline, then Charge it in.

[@ianyoder2537]

"What should we do for the mangler squig's idle animations?" "Define idle?"

[@axios4702]

I love Skarsnik and I love all the new squigs for my night gobbos, will definitely start a new campaing. The Savage Orc Shaman also brings much needed variety to the lords roster, it was so annoying seeing regular orcs leading savage orc tribes and if you played someone like Wurzag you were stuck giving your savage orcs goblin shaman leaders if you wanted to keep the wild aesthetic.

[@StevenWhite-j9m]

waited so long to get Gorbad Ironclaw! Cannot wait

[@jerrydelguercio5462]

i would test the bolt thrower against air. i think it was designed for anti air. since it is the main thing they lack.

[@meemmeem9170]

Assuming Snagla buffs Aracknarok units. Snagla+Technology unlocked lord that buffs spiders+Slinger Aracknarok sounds like a disgustingly fun combo.

[@user-md1tn6hq8p]

Who knows about further green skin units. I personally hope we get a few more… Lore master of Sotek was saying he thinks there could be one more DLC for Greenskins but idk.

[@jerrydelguercio5462]

i am hopeful that big stabba may be added in a future patch. since savage orcs are a situational unit based on locations. they kept them seperate as an flc unit. would be nice to give them an anti large, siege unit.

[@Kragnar1]

I wish black orcs just came in a single unit that could switch weapons. And during the switch your melee defence was lowered to 0 for 5 seconds or something, discouraging using it whilst in melee. Would have been a cool unit.

[@michasalamon8315]

I was Kinda hoping for More Hobgoblins, gnoblars or even boglars (swamp goblins) to show up, but I will take what I can and hope that dlcs now will result in More content in the future

[@darthplagueis13]

If Hobgoblins ever happen beyond what the Chorfs bring to the field, it's gonna be as part of their own race. Other Greenskins don't like Hobgoblins whatsoever and will usually try to kill them on sight.

[@2Scribble]

You wouldn't find hobos in a gs army - they *hate* regular greenskins and that loathing is mutual

[@betrayer1350]

Gnoblars and goblins fill the same role, so redundant to be on the same roster. Hobs are killed on sight by other GS strains.

[@nepnep8382]

New Wyvern looks sick

[@jshadowhunter]

Flinger seems to be another + for Skarsnik, since it's another goblin-based unit like the normal araknarok spider.

[@edmundfed8515]

[@PNarbz123]

@edmundfed8515 im glad im not the only person who noticed, not making him armoured and shielded is abit sad, but to be fair he is also mounted, does a fk tonne of damage and buffs units around him... Cant have everything

[@KOBA235]

Gorbad with BoBB on the pig gonna be terrifying duo.

[@voodoodummie]

manglers seem to displace units a lot, so maybe they work great with large-numbers units like night goblins who benefit from a greater saturation into the enemy's ranks.

[@mcyolicjones9081]

Gorbad is the most "proper" looking Orc Warlord I've ever seen. He could probably even chew up Grimgor by the looks of it.

[@Booklat1]

[@andarara-c1p]

Please CA, for the love of Slaanesh, now that you are with Orcs in this DLC rework the Stone Trolls to look as they are in lore and not just a recolored normal Troll

[@eomat]

We still need the Savage Orc Big Boss, Big Stabba and Squig Gobba for those complete Savage Orc and Night Goblin flavours.

[@eomat]

I would have traded the Arachnarok for a Squig Gobba. That blue as a well is just so weird. Clashes with the army.

[@adamkenyeres9036]

I think everyone would trade the flinger for the Gobba, that's not why we didn't got it. The real question is that you want the mengler or the Gobba(I'm just generally curious which is the most wanted unit)

[@ruas4721]

I am pretty happy with all new units, love the flinger too. Im so glad that we finaly get Gorbad, i waited since TWW1 for him, he is by far my favorit Waaghboss.

[@jerrydelguercio5462]

looks like ror is a colossal squig, bolt throwa, and orc crossbows.

[@Prince_Cheddar]

It seems unlikely, but maybe they could, if they get enough income from DLCs to keep working on the game, make it so Snagla is a LL, similar to how Vlad and Isabella work. If you play as another Greenskin, you get Snagla for a LH, but if you play as Snagla, you get your own, unique leganrady hero.

[@darthplagueis13]

Interesting to see 500 WS on the Webslinger. Iirc regular ones sit at 440 currently, so the Webslinger either does quite a bit more damage in melee, or Arachnaroks are getting a general damage boost. Edit: Nvm, apparently they were buffed to 500 in a previous update when I wasn't looking. However, interesting little detail on the Black Orcs: The Greataxe version gets a stance ability called "Unstoppable Choppaz" which buffs their damage by 25% but sacrifices 24 melee defence. Not sure if that's gonna be worth it most of the time tbh, unless if you're maybe fighting something that already has crazy high melee attack and is basically never going to miss either way.

[@ruas4721]

Maybe to kill melee characters.

[@theiceknight4457]

Ooo the web finger fires like a motar. That could be useful.

[@TsunamiWombat]

Damn son that collosal squig has NINETY MOVE SPEED. Good luck taking those out at range. both it and the manglers look like line breakers part excellence, you throw them in (or through) the infantry line first, then your infantry line follows up and smashes into it while your squigs are theoretically pushing through to the backline. MP is going to hate these so much

[@theiceknight4457]

Bolt throwa finaly. It's more useful for its armor piercing. Going to nail some long beards to some walls

[@HiddenEvilStudios]

I concur. We need the hand-weapon version now among other things.

[@PNarbz123]

Its sad that Greenskins got 2 slots taken up by a web flinging spider and a black orc variant... That could have easily been a Big Stabba, Squig Gobba, Hill Goblins or Iron Orcs (I think Iron Orcs might be a RoR tho) or do something different like Orcs with armor piercing crossbows..

[@piratejack6577]

The arachnaroch flinger is actually so cool I support it

[@aliserkansar335]

Piggy boy looks amazing! And the Arachnorak artillery is not a bad idea I think. It's fast which can be really useful in most of the situations. So goodbye to flying gobbos :)

[@ricardomora9913]

Those Mangler Squigs are God tier unit for me is the best one in the whole game hahaha love them.

[@zebjensen4251]

Im disappointed we didn't get artillery squigg. Also the rampage on the mad squiggs sounds more like a feature not a bug.

[@jaredcullum117]

Perhaps the goblin bolt throwers are meant to fire at monstrous infantry and cavalry, rather than single entities, since their accuracy is as bad as it is.

[@liamcullen3035]

The bolt throwa is probably decent against cavalry, with the low accuracy shots hitting other models in the unit

[@vierwhey]

Greenskin dlc is a hard sale for me with the black orc shield variant that i will have to pay when the unit already exists in the game. Its also sad that there isnt any dancing animation of the mumbo jumbo chant :(. Would be fun to see Wurrzags lord selection video dance when you use the mombo jumbo chant.

[@liamcullen3035]

I dunno man, I think I might prefer to bring a webflinger with my greenskin armies over the other relatively static artillery pieces. Mobile artillery that can range around with my aggressive troops, escape danger, or be a massive threat in melee seems like a lot of fun to me! I think it will go great in my Skarsnik armies 💙

[@Shero1337]

I hope with this DLC it mean that the explosive squigs will be fixed, one of my favorite meme units so its a shame that its been broken for so long now.

[@pa1968e]

Question : with both Black Orcs variant getting stances did regiment of renown (Krimson Killerz) get their unique one or not ?

[@silverseer573]

So, would you say the Night Goblin Big Boss is a unit supporter while the Goblin Big Boss is a character assassin?

[@necronzing]

How is the webflingers building damage? Could it make a good siege attacking unit for wrecking towers & walls?

[@TheTeddyPersons]

Someone needs to send Legend a mangler squig doomstack, maybe a colossal squig doomstack too

[@thehonestaspy102]

Loving all the new additions except the Night Goblin big boss who feels like a very low effort reskin and doesn't really seem to offer anything new. If he had dual weapons or a bow I think I'd mind him less but he looks worse I think when compared to the Savage Ork Great Shaman who looks incredible!!!

[@jadossmooth9379]

Do the night goblins warboss get the colossal squig as a mount?

[@darthplagueis13]

Huh... Big'Uns seem to be in for a massive nerf. Going from 38 MA, 28 MD, 42 WS, 27 CB to 34 MA, 25 MD, 38 WS, 24 CB. That's pretty harsh across the board. I wonder if there's a point to that. Like, I could imagine that their BvL is getting boosted from 8 to something more significant in exchange in order to force them more heavily into an anti-large role instead of being a more generalist infantry. It's also possible that CA just want to encourage using more Black Orcs though, since even the basic ones seem to have gotten some handsome buffs to melee attack and charge bonus.

[@Shimatzu95]

So, how long till we get amod to colorchange the spider? Unless of course thats a faction thing, but i doubt it.

[@mysterium1744]

i wanna know how ranged troops want to "hit" the manglers

[@torbk]

I think the proper use for those spear chuckas is going to be shooting at cavalry. If they are knights they are a thick unit with big models, so few spears will miss hopefully? And if it is light cavalry, while more spears will miss, you will probably be picking off models at a decent rate? Just guessing here, but I really want to like those spear chuckas. Been a Common Goblin fan since I got into Warhammer Fantasy near the end of 5th Edition as 6th Edition was just around the corner. Still got all the army books from 6th and 7th edition close at hand. I just collected them. That became off topic. Slight rant. Still, love to see me another Common Goblin unit.

[@yvesledauphin1220]

What are the lores of magic that are reshaped ?

[@eomat]

Goblin Bolt Throwa is probably better against Monstrous Infantry.

[@bbutler3230]

Ye, have a question: How the hell will player kill mangler squig? How to contr that madness? I mean, ye they prety fun looking, but how to play against it?

[@longbow857]

Characters, monsters and perhaps even heavy/monster cavalry is what I'm guessing. Also we have to wait and see how much arrows can hit them on the approach, because that would limit the use of those units a lot more if focussed down they just melt.

[@Shinshinvariety]

I'mma have to say I have no idea why everyone thinks the new black orcs are good. They're an anti ranged unit at tier 4? Their main defense is high armor, which becomes useless by tier 4. Their melee defense is okay, but they have to give up all their damage to get dwarfiness level of melee defense. They're still slow as hell, so they sure aren't going to be sprinting in to people. Who is their design for? To line hold for... a melee army? Melee has been buffed so much, and ranged has been nerfed so much, that most games it's not really a big deal to spam range unless you're fighting against the AI. If you got them earlier maybe I'd understand, but we're talking about a unit you're getting at tier 3. By tier 3 you want damage to stack all your buffs on. The AI has been dramatically improved as well, and isn't going to be fielding waves of swordsmen for you to cut through. By tier 3 we're mostly going to be fighting Greatswords, Dragon Guard, Excutioners, Chosen, etc. (At least if you play very-hard+) In MP campaigns I can maybe see a use as a counter to players stacking 12+ ranged units per stack, but even then the best counter to range spam is cav spam (which greenskins have very bad stats on, I suppose.) There will be a SLIGHT window if they're cost efficient and available at tier 3 where Black Orcs will be good, but they mostly seem like a placeholder for real Black Orcs later on, where you jsut use them for ~15 turns out of an entire campaign. That's not... terrible? But it feels bad. I expected at least some anti-infantry like Grave Guard so they'd be a more damage focused line holding unit. It just kinda sucks seeing every other faction powercreeping their melee over and over again, and Orcs are still stuck with low melee atk/def, and their damage isn't even amazing anymore (the actual damage factions have caught up and surpassed their damage dealt multiple times over now.) If we were in a heavy range meta maybe I'd understand a bit more, but they still have 29 speed so they're SUPER prone to getting kited. Grave Guard have similar stats (after buffs) but are cheap, spammable, and come out of the literal ground, AND undead aren't some powerhouse faction right now to begin with.
