I literally quit a Markus Wulfhart campaign because EVERY SINGLE TIME you click on him, he says "Markus Wulfhart!"

[@RafeLaet]

He's been following the footsteps of a legend! Kislev men of Warhammer 2!

[@TheRewasder97]

Kislev. I miss him so much tbh.

[@HeTaLiA152]

Bro can't handle the empire's Pokemon

[@boxinsteadyeddie]

Got tired of the Trickster’s voice lines about twenty turns in and quit right then and there lol

[@paula.827]

I get nightmare and hear everytime i sleep "MARKUS WULFHART!!!" 😂

[@justpassingthrough686]

My first (and still to this day favorite) twwh3 campaign was as Oxyotl because I couldn't resist playing as this adorable lil chameleon that happens to be the WH equivalent of Doom Guy. It remains my favorite because he's, in my opinion, the herald of the Order Tide. I can literally just teleport all over the world and fuck up chaos at my whim (kinda).

[@TheSzepyCZ]

Markus is pretty broken after the ToD, not only you cannot receive the dlc units with from imperial supplies, the engineers boosts(both trait, for example hochland scopes and skill tree wise) does not even work on the units received from the imperial supplies, just try it yourself, try to get some warwagons for example from imperial supplies and then recruit one normally, then put engineer hero in your army and you’ll see that only the normally recruited one gets the boosts. as for Repanse, the water is one of the most useless/outdated mechanics in the game, not only the settlements are so close to one another that you can go between them in 1 turn, you can also get the immunity to desert attrition from the great desert of araby special building

[@dawidwozniak8196]

And hero quests are broken again, you can getlocked out of finishing some of them

[@SeaIify]

I don't know if this was an already existing "issue" or recently added but the elector-y units don't receive any buffs from the skill tree.

[@awesomehpt8938]

Chaos dwarfs are the GOAT! Drazoath the ashen is my favourite of them all.

[@inductivegrunt94]

Rakarth is basically Dark Elf Pokémon with capturing monsters to send into battle.

[@paulovinasrocha6166]

But with less brainwashing

[@Eisenwulf666]

accurate and based

[@gevorex2972]

I would say the Wood elf campaigns are quite unique too.

[@grayrook8637]

I will mention my 2 favorite campaigns: Drycha and the Sisters of Twilight. Both get you away from the rather easy location of Athel Loran. Drycha has some unique challenges with her Debuffs and being near Sylvania and stuff. But also she gets instant forest spirit recruits and stars with an amber and Melvolent Tree folk. While the Sisters are in a rough neighborhood but also get the excellent forge of Daith and are an Artillery Lord.

[@discountplaguedoctor88]

'Bretonnia's biggest hater' I thought I was watching Colonel Damneders, not PancreasNoWork.

[@grandstrategos]

Skarbrand needs to be on this list. Mindlessly charging in units and razing multiple settlements each turn is a nice break.

[@paulovinasrocha6166]

That is why taurox is on it

[@Turnoutburndown]

Yeah the spawning all the armies, and constantly losing money but still being rich from looting.

[@mochiboot6502]

kinda surprised to not see N'kari on here. In terms of literally being Unique, he's the only Slaanesh lord, for one, and his campaign plays like none other.

[@josephr4761]

He definitely belongs on this list. Creating vassals via seduction. Seducing units before battle. Just being a Daemon faction that starts on Ulthuan is interesting.

[@BlizzardAcolyte]

Espousing the virtues of The Thousand Maws campaign as I play them to tackle The Crisis is such a treat…once? Nah homie, try “everyone should play Rakarth’s campaign at least three-four times” the unit variety available, dependent on what parts of the map you focus your efforts on, should make for a different campaign nearly every time out. Utilizing any mods that expend the Monster Pen “roster” just adds to that even more

[@terlondre]

Nice list and reasonable choices. Might be a personal preference, but i would have also added Sisters of Twilight. Unlike almost all other campaigns, this one isn't about painting map with your team color. Instead you choose what part of the map (and local natives) you want to fight in now and just hop around with your army reviving trees. Order in which you do that is entirely up to you so replaying this doesn't get repetitive as replaying other factions and you will almost always be outnumbered so there will be some challenge even later on, when normally you would be snowballing with doomstacks by turn 50

[@kubikkuratko188]

Very interesting But! SUMMON THE ELECTOR COUNTS!

[@ianmac201]

The main problem I have with the Wulfhart campaign is I spend most of it fighting Skaven, DE and vamps... doesn't really fit the Lizardmen theme anymore

[@AveSpisyn]

Thanks for making those videos. They always give new ideas how to play the game :)

[@irsyadamir4166]

Oxyotl is my fav campaign, the only issue is when you playing in legendary difficulty tzeentch faction beside you will take over you settlement and kairos is such a pain combine with lizardmen bad autoresolve Anyway the overhaul for lizardmen is really good (lustria rise)

[@kmanalpha453]

N'kari has a fantastic gameplay loop of hero spawning to vassalize an area. Hit the button to spawn a cult in random areas, make the building that creates a hero, send the hero to make another cult, make the hero building again. Do this until the area is over run with cults, change them all to be the one that gives more vassalization points, use the heroes to corrupt the Lords....and then delete all the heroes 🤷🏼‍♂️ You can corrupt and vassalize all of cathay withiut leaving the donut

[@kmanalpha453]

"Joan of Arc-hans Desert" was a fantastic pun

[@markrestone9173]

"Pulling up to the battle with kidney stones" lmao

[@Agwachugger]

I found the changeling to be very unique in how incredibly boring the campaign was

[@SerLoinSteak]

It's unique, but not holding any land of your own to have a failure condition means the campaign simply has no stakes

[@oooeee5556]

You barely get attacked and you can be as passive as you want. Ehh. So boring.

[@tomayto70]

Yeah I played him because Kairos has a really tough start, but it's the opposite problem for the Changeling. I entertained myself by making it my mission to keep certain LLs like Vlad or Ikit alive. His allied recruitment skills are very strong so you can recruit top-tier units from other factions right away if you build the diplomacy building. I enjoyed it for a little while but it is true that the complete inability of the AI to discover your hidden armies/cults (since they never build lookout buildings) does take away the sense of urgency. A fun concept would probably be to play coop with a friend or two and use symbiotic buildings on them to see how much you can buff their economy, then have them handle some max strength endgame crises.

[@CashFreedman]

It's a power trip and a dlc tester.

[@maskdanger]

It feels like straight cheating

[@bacchus8081]

I used to kinda hate dwarf campaigns (Endless underway merry-go-round with greenskins in the mountains and crappy grudge mechanics on your allies) but Malakai has been an absolute blast for me. Between his missions and legendary grudges, plus all the instant recruitment/ Gotrik + Felix/ Ulrika and other OP stuff, he has been one of the few campaigns where I was like "let's just keep going until Order rules this world. We got stuff to do over in those mountains anyway." Grombrindal with a Fire-only army ( + all the Oathgold stuff and grudge settler units) kept me busy for a good 50 turns atleast :P Ungrim with all the Slayer buffs and new units was also just fantastic.

[@largamau]

Just 4 Airships in your army and you literally win any battle. Also the shotgun cannon skill is so good. Cannons end up stronger than those flamethrower cannons.

[@Vikn01]

Oxyotl and Skarsnik are my all time favorite campaigns. They really feel totally differently than their basic faction platstyles like Mazdamundi or Grimgor. Both are honestly OP when used correctly and you lean on their strengths.

[@gregoryshinn9805]

Thanks for the video

[@lmao_nope]

1:30 You can't do it as long as you want because the momentum gained scales very fast with battles won in the same turn, and once you get to the third rampage reward you're _forced out_ of your rampage and can no longer regain movement.

[@geehdeh]

How do you get the still portraits of the lords in every occasion? Can’t find the mod in workshop 😢

[@eypick6987]

10:15, I don't care who The Creative Assembly sends. I am not paying for Shadows of Change.

[@sprintstothebathroomdaily2429]

Yuan bo campaign in immortal empire is fun Changeling is trash. Can never get into it

[@VoicesByZane]

Lol that moment where you realized hunter and the beast came out 5 years ago was very strong

[@CiceroSolo]

Chaos dwarfs have a great army but lack anti large in my view

[@arron1429]

I know I'm in the minority but the Changeling campaign has probably been my favourite Total War experience so far. Mostly because of all the flavour of messing with other factions without actually conquering them.

[@secret0fsecrets739]

THEY ARE IN THE TREEEEEEES

[@theundergrad5994]

I’m totally new to warhammer and PC gaming. How much would it run me to get a Pc that runs this well on ultra? About to get my bonus and I need this game in my life. Love the channel by the way. I watch your vids but can’t experience the game for myself.

[@Kapuzenkamel]

This game is horribly optimised so make sure to not get something too basic if you want to play on the highest settings. But it is fking amazing and well worth getting

[@MightyJaytube]

1500 / 2000 Will get you a decent PC. It’s bad optimized and depends a lot on CPU so keep that in mind. Also go for 16gb minimum

The same video for Real of Chaos?

[@MrSpine-be2ij]

no nakai???

[@michaelfetter4541]

Oxyotl is a fun campaign until you do a few of his visions and the campaign map drops to like 10fps. Makes doing any diplomacy or just looking around painfully bad.

[@hik639]

What about wood elves?

[@VorondiI]

Why is there no Vampire Coast in this list? :D

[@torontokid2727]

I just started a Valkia campaign before this video came out. I hope I don't regret that choice.

[@jameslong6776]

You won’t, Valkia is a lot of fun! Just take care of the skullcrushers around dark shards & shades as they can deal a lot of damage if they focus fire

[@torontokid2727]

I did a few battles and immediately thought "I need 19 of these!"

[@Cynndora]

Really wish i could enjoy Oxyotl, cool campaign mechanics but terrible roster, like can someone just give his campaign to Alith Anar so i can stalk stance my enemies to death with shadow walkers, chameleon skinks have no range and are just godawful to use in comparison.

[@Quetzietse]

'chameleon skinks have no range and are just godawful to use' Skilled players are usually very fond of chameleon skinks though. Not to mention the special ammo from Oxyotl in his campaign.

[@sprintstothebathroomdaily2429]

You can buff skink speed heavily and they can fire while moving They aren't supposed to be back like range units they're harass and ambush Really good to pull lines apart as the AI normally just throws a big line of infantry at you with the occasional flank from cav

[@irsyadamir4166]

Chamelion skink like legit the bread and butter of Oxyotl army lol 😂 and the snipe and poison mechanic literally make it OP if you can micro The keyword is micro not cheeze, cause skinks has bad autoresolve but you can always win eventho its show crushing defeat on auto resolve

[@irsyadamir4166]

You don't have to micro really hard like cycle charging tho, just set a small group and make small skirmish throught the battle

[@Ett.Gammalt.Bergtroll]

Malakai has ruined every other campaign for me. Between the Legendary Grudges and his Adventures you truly have your own sandbox adventure. Every other faction/LL that simply has to defeat X/Y/Z faction and conquer a gazillion settlements to win just seem soooooo goddamn boring in comparison. I keep trying to play other factions, but Malakai just keeps luring me back.

[@donkarnage6986]

nice video, but i think the majority of players really hate playing as markus wulfheart It just crap that the game is unplayable for some players.. those random crash after battles is pretty annoying...

[@oooeee5556]

markus is so...weak, he's ok lord can't receive new units even with new dlc the absurd enemy's buffs are too much stupid idea but i hope someone makes a mod that replaces the markus hunters with uberseik 5 for the funny idk

[@CashFreedman]

Unique doesn't mean good per say 🤷‍♂️

[@sprintstothebathroomdaily2429]

Is the crash specific to old hardware? Or that campaign? Just played a wulfhart campaign no issues. The challenge with his campaign Rn is reinforcements are bugged If you get imperial supply troops in an army none of the hero or Lord buffs apply Plus lustria just feels bad

[@HerbyMontana]

Great video mate but you talk way too quick

[@vargknight]

I get why the Changeling is number 1 in terms of being unique, but honestly I found the campaign really boring myself and it ended up feeling like a chore that I had to do to get to the final battle. There's just no challenge to the campaign at all, as unless you do something really stupid you literally cannot lose

[@vexingvillain2758]

Ah yes the changeling, my least favorite campaign, I’ve never been so happy to finish a campaign before

[@Zebo12345678]

Agreed, but at least it's unique. It definitely belongs on number one on this list. There is no other campaign as unique as The Changeling, because no other campaign feels like you're playing creative mode. There's no threat or challenge. It kinda sucks big time.

[@vexingvillain2758]

@@Zebo12345678yeah exactly

[@kylejorgensen3879]

100% disagree on Drazoath

[@QwH007]

It is worrying if a British love a campaign where a large empire sends troops and weapons to support another faction to occupy the land of locals. Sounds like real life 😒😒😒

A suggestion to CA they can add an apartheid mechanism to this campaign as well
