I found a way to do well as empire in grand campaign with a cheap army. I can actually go toe to toe against a full of chaos with my mostly first tier units, and this allows me to get several stacks...
Hi,
Can someone gives an empire template for an army against Norska and Chaos? I don't have trouble against vampires but i found Norska to be really tough, and now they tend to have mostly...
I don't even know how to use hexwraiths. i have noticed that they have bad stats but their attacks are AP and have 80% physical damage mitigation. due to their crappy stats, I don't know what to...
I have no clue why I picked up bad traits. For example, my dwarf lords get "like Greenskins" trait. I was like WTF. Bethalthar Gelt gets "dishonest" trait which gives -5% to province income. I...
With Volkmar as starting legendary lord, you can recruit level 20 warrior priest. Without him, you can recruit level 18 warrior priest. Considering how easy it is to construct buildings, I...
If the game is too easy, set yourself some restrictions such as playing legendary while accomplishing all the accomplishments in steam playing legendary. You can also try various challenges. Awhile...
I use a different strategy. If you attack the orcs early, you can be friends with dwarf and border princes. that friendship lasts a long time as long as the green skins are allowed to be a menace. ...
There are many people saying legendary is still too easy. The things is, other than the cheats and bonuses out of no where, the AI is still not very good and very predictable.
VC campaign is actually a lot of fun, but I only feel like finishing the short campaign which is wiping out chaos and empire. The long campaign is tedious as the empire and dwarf are two completely...
Still, what you described don't seem right.
I don't think AI cavalry has greater ability than human cavalry.
What is your faction? If you play as dwarf, use slayers. Otherwise, use...
why don't we go back to Shogun 2 where cavalry feels weak and totally useless against AI as AI builds nothing but spearmen ashigaru and spear samurai. (sarcasm)
If the cavalry is OP, why don't...
After having some experience, i agree that empire knights are bad. Reikguards although slightly more expensive is a much better unit. Reikguard has much better staying power, and the charge is...
After having more experience, I agree that warrior priest is a really unit. However, like all heroes in this game, they are totally worthless in low levels. A battle priest is a beast during combat...
This forum does not seem to active. But anyways. I played empire campaign several times past turn 150. It seems to me that going straight to eliminate the vampires is the way to go. Bothering the...
My battle priests are useless in combat. Also, I don't know whether there is a bug or not but my priest does not seem to increase the population growth of a province when you put the skill point.
...
The ambush stance thing works in choke points but does not work in wide open spaces like Midland / Northland for example. You need witchhunter to block army. However, even if I block army...
That's actually okay. The penalty is only temporary. I confederate as much as possible in early game when I need money. But once Chaos hits, I don't confederate because I need all the AI's alive...
I don't live in the West and have zero knowledge about warhammer and the warhammer lore prior to playing this. I played my first campaign and was totally caught off guard by Chaos. In turn 22, I...
Hello, I am a newbie here. I have lots of problems with empire campaign.
(1). I have Dwarven Thane and Empire Captains sabotaging my facilities and armies from two factions that declare war on...
Historically speaking, cannons do not sink ships. The ships are made of wood. Putting a few holes on the side won't make it sink. To really sink it, they have to use fire to burn the ship down.
...
DON'T DO IT!!! This game is addictive like crack. I fell behind in school. I spent so much time on it playing every single clans and trying all different difficulties.. I wish I never have...
you can't train for upgrade, but you can merge units. I can't remember how that works, but I heard the rumor that the armor or experience can be merged into another unit.
Personally, I simply...
Some of them are definitely worth it, but it depends on your style and overall tactics. For me, I like moral and melee defense. Moral damage can be more devastating than physical damage.
not everyone cares about unity diversity, otherwise nobody would play chess, since it hardly has any unit diversity and pieces from both sides are the same.
I think i figured it out!
You put them in single line formation (45 width x 1 height or 60x1), depending on your battle size.
Start using them only after the skirmish phase is over. They are...
I was wondering about the same thing actually. Heavy gunners have less men than regular matchlock samurai, but the stats are the same. When the heavy gunner was first implemented, any one of their...
I don't like any of the mods, but I haven't tried realism mod. The original with all the DLC's is nice enough. I don't feel that any of the mods improve things except to make them different.
I...
No doubt. Also samurais are funner to play than plain old ashigaru. However, if you play very hard or even legendary, it can be comforting to know that you don't actually need any samurai. ...
Some people also run all ashigaru army, and then overwelm their opponent by having 2 stacks gang up on 1 stack and do auto-calc. This is NOT what I am writing about. This is about using one full...
My all Ashigaru army goes toes to toes with AI all samurai army which is backed by 5 star general and totally crush them.
Basically, you need to max out spear line, get matchlock ashigaru, get 1...
This has been debated to death.
It has been said that it depends on one's playing style, but I think it doesn't. It is unit specific.
+5 armor on a Katana Samurai makes it indestrutable such...
Yeah, this one sucks, but I am not sure if it is a bug though. Some people complained that if the archer cannot see, then archer should not be able to fire. I have read in a post where someone...
I found a formula that works really well.
research sojutsu mastery will get you a rank 4 yari ashigaru. I found weapon smith coupled with +2 melee encampment works better than maximum armor.
...
The vanilla shogun 2 is very polished, bug free, and fairly balanced, except for siege engines
some people don't like paper rock scissors, but it's perfect for multiplayers.
It's my favorite...
I just started playing again after taking a long break from video gaming. I never used Kisho Ninja and decided to get it as early as possible and found out that it is totally OP.
I use it...
I never played lower difficulty but always hard or hardest.
I do ashigaru spam in the very beginning. I try to get a full stack of yari ashigaru and charge them. You need the coverage of two...
You're nuts. everyone i know said it is a terrible movie. and don't actually watch that movie with someone japanese since you're likely to get an ear full about everything that has gone wrong in...
If you play it out and don't autocalc, you don't need 2 stacks. You just need one stack of 10 ships with medium bunes mixed with sendoku bunes and bow kobayas. Lead with medium bune, send bow...
I think the legendary building bonus is bugged. Sometimes I build something and didn't get a bonus that I suppose to get. Later on I send my ninja everywhere to see if the AI has built it first but...
