[@parkerconnolly2484]

I love how nurgle who was supposed to be the main focus of the dlc ironically came out with less then the other two races in the dlc

[@Supercohboy]

His warband system allows you to play with units from other DLC without owning them, so it's the best bang for your buck arguably if you don't own stuff like Chorfs. The Empire benefited the most from the paid DLC when it comes to the faction's "power level" increasing, but the Dwarfs benefited the most from the free additions. And the new Dwarf units are a bit nuts lol we'll see how much more the new stuff gets toned down or reworked

[@parkerconnolly2484]

@@Supercohboy yeah that’s my point the warband system benefitted tamurkhan greatly but if we were to just look at what is available to the race as a whole in terms of paid and unpaid content the empire/dwarfs got the best of it.

[@mesuper455]

Probably just a bad matchup, y'know the very melee focused chaos armies of Nurgle running into the VERY overpowered guns of the Dawi and Empire isn't a very favorable for Nurgle. Either they sit and get pummeled by Artillery or rush them and get shot to death by gunpowder. Elspeth and Malakai being overtuned rn doesn't help too. At least Nurgle got some love in the DLC, they got a much needed rework and feel a LOT better to play.

[@vahlen5281]

​@@mesuper455 They do, but Tamurkhan definitely lacks an equivalent to Elspeth's gunnery school, and Malakai's workshop. His chieftain's can't really compete with the sheer amount of factionwide buffs those two mechanics provide.

[@joniviheraho621]

Yeah and tamurkhan needs time if he gets like 50 turns hes broken can easily get 50 ward save and insane damage with all the chieftains​@@mesuper455

[@MrParadux]

I feel like Nurgle's recruitment is just too slow to keep up with regular factions.

[@joniviheraho621]

Not really when you make it good its actually amazing but they are just slow and this was a super bad match up

[@berkekaradag1410]

Nurgle early game is very slow. But after early game when you build up crazy amounts of infections it becomes very easy. Because you can rush military cycles with infections and you can just pump out lots of late game units. And through tech, Nurgle corruption and skill lines you can basicly recruit units at full health. I think mid-late game Nurgle can swarm Malakai and Elsbeth and win but in the early stages Nurgle gonna lose.

[@loveluclins]

@@berkekaradag1410 I feel like nurgle is still going to buckle under high upkeep and recruitment cost though. The other factions don't have any issue with money even when tamurkhan is nonstop looting and raiding settlements, he fails to get an equal amount of armies out.

[@berkekaradag1410]

@@loveluclins In the mid and late game money is not a problem for any of the factions. Including Nurgle. And the thing about Nurgle is, with the other factions losing a high cost, late game army and units hurts but with Nurgle I just don't care. My soul grinder doomstack army destroyed? Oh no! Anyway I just recruit another full army in the same turn and next turn they are at full hp. Also swarming with Nurgle is easy. Just pump out low-mid tier armies and swarm the lands. You don't need more high quality armies than Empire to beat them. You just need 1 or 2 high quailty armies and lots of cheap ones. Even the cheap ones are unkillable. Killing buffed Nurglings takes so oooo much time. I like the Nurgle play style. It is different. It is not weak or op. Every faction in this game is easy to play anyways.

[@simpleman3898]

Yesssss i was waiting for this. Poor nurgle, maybe better on a more than 1 on 1. Your multi-player campaigns are epic😊

[@peterhe6699]

I think that Timurland could've actually beaten Malakai if you took him off the mount and made him harder to hit. That guy is ridiculously tanky even without the mount and slaughters infantry.

[@sympunny8636]

it wouldn't help him much. Would've made him much slower plus a foot lord that can be staggered. It's a good strat vs ai, but not so great vs players. Tbh new dwarves, particularly malakai are just better than nurgle. Their economy is better, they have better recruitement, they have better units (thunderbarges in particular be crazy) and way better expansion/autoresolve.

[@peterhe6699]

@@sympunny8636 I don't think Timuland can be staggard due to his mass. Also its okay if he's slower which I don't think he is with the mount on him. Also dwarves best way of dealing with single entity units is just using ranged so if they can't hit as much less damage.

[@mightyowl3875]

yeah, tamurkhan is better against ranged heavy factions when he isnt on bubelos. he turns into one of the biggest entities in the game.

[@sympunny8636]

@@peterhe6699 the trouble is, once you take his off his mount, he's slow and doesn't have great aoe damage. So they can just put a basic unit to tie him down and slaughter his army in the meantime. I saw he didn't have his mortis yet, so he basically becomes too slow, too slow to move, too slow to kill.

[@peterhe6699]

@@sympunny8636 The AOE damage just makes the battle longer so its okay and if you send him in alone they got no army to kill he's a one man doomstack. You want Timurland in melee where he can't be easily shot if he's on his mount anybody can shoot him in melee or not in warhammer unless you got a duelist lord or hero missiles are the only way to kill a powerful character like Timurland. At least on foot it's harder to hit him.

[@rave9532]

Why didn’t you instant recruit Nurgle’s units in your home territory when Tamurkhan’s capital was under assault? Nurgle has a recruiting pool, with instant recruitment although at lower health, a defense army sprouting out of the ground might’ve saved that Tamurkhan campaign.

[@sympunny8636]

it was pretty early on in the campaign, he probably didn't have that many units in his pool, and they'd struggle at lower health to do any significant damage. Plus it'd be a large amount of recruit gold, which it didn't look like he really had.

[@EyebrowsGaming]

I honestly don't like what they've done to Nurgle's faction. I feel like I'm in the minority saying that I thought their economy was strong enough before the update (with all strategic resources giving +15% income increased in the province EACH) while providing a lot of flavor to the faction. I think the people who cried it was weak or bad are the ones who didn't have the patience to see out a Ku'Gath campaign more than 15 turns. Zoomer brains in action, I guess. I'll have fond memories of the southern provinces of Cathay becoming a breadbasket of my Ku'Gath world conquest, with the Celestial Riverlands province alone giving me anywhere between 4000 and 10,000 gold per turn depending on the building cycles I'm also gutted that they dropped the amazing artistic icons they had for the old disease symptoms, they were really nice compared to the new basic bitch modifier icons.

[@Nukerunin]

LOL. The Chieftains don't play well in the same armies. I had Khargan with the first Befouled dude in my main army for awhile and they were cool with each other. But when I had Befouled with the Chaos Dwarf, they were butting heads all the time. It wasn't hard to keep the peace between them by being neutral. Maybe some of them get along with each other, and others don't. It was probably done on purpose to stop you from stacking OP campaign bonuses, but there's much to learn about how they interact with one another or if it's just scheduled events.

[@fotppd1475]

In the finals between Malakai and Elspeth, Malakai could have won this way sooner and way more easily....had he knew how to speak diplomacy and made allies in Kislev and the northern Empire.
