Defense of Grunburg

[randir14]

I just started playing the campaign and within five turns I encountered a serious threat. While Karl Franz was away with his army fighting Chaos, two full stacks of Greenskins took advantage of the situation and invaded Reikland from the south, attacking the undermanned city of Grunburg. They led a two pronged assault and each of their armies had siege towers and battering rams. Luckily (or not so lucky as it turns out), a nearby allied army came to my aid. They failed miserably and my men were forced to hold the city center for nearly the entirety of the battle. Here are the results:

Some of the demolished allied army that did nothing to blunt the northern attack


My men fight off a Black Orc charge, this particular group of Orcs are only a few of the many who were slaughtered or routed


Tons of dead Greenskins but only a drop in the bucket compared to their remaining horde


The men stand ready as the Greenskins make their final push for the town square


Although they fought bravely and killed many enemies they eventually fell. My remaining unit was able to escape back to Altdorf. Look at those Orcs laughing over the death and destruction...Karl Franz is going to be smashing some green heads soon.

Nice! More battle reports!

[Saladin]

yes the scripted battles are indeed awesome. once some of the kinks are worked out on it, the campaign will be incredibly exciting.

The worst orc unit to fight against is Goblin Wolf Riders.


...because they crash the game.

I think that may be what happens in my game has anyone else seen the army that attacks Grunburg contain them?

[Saladin]

no, i haven't seen any wolf riders in the grunburg script battle but also my game loads up wolf riders fine. it might be because it's a siege battle and people have been saying that siege battles causes ctds.

I did, and I got slaughtered! (100% of my army killed, around 82% of my allies killed, and only 53% of the Green Tide killed)

The Grand Theogonist sent an army to help me, but it too got decimated by the Orc Hordes

REVENGE!!! -FOR SIGMAR!!!!

PS: I forgot to take screenies of the battle, so I restarted my campaign so I can take some shots
