The Forge of the Chaos Dwarves - My Honest Review
You have to set your own goals with the changeling, everything else are means to achieve them. For example, obtain as many legendary lords forms and their traits. Ensure the weak factions that get eliminated easily survive and dominate by boosting their economy and crippling economy of their enemies through cults. Change the fate of the mortal empire by manipulating chaos factions into killing each other until Kislen steamrolls them all.
After playing them. Idk y everyone loves this faction.
ohh why you suck? that is easy. You play the wrong faction! you are playing as a rat! that is a no no.
HAHA! Jokes on you! I suck at every race 😂😂
really love your guide and it's very helpful. can you make a guide for chaos dwarfs or grand cathay also?
does anyone know how to get the summoners of rage? no matter what i do they never appear on the recruitment screen.
@@aresgodofwar0422 check the pinned comment x
@@BlakesTakes420 gave that a go and still doesn't seem to work and now i cant get thru to support for help lol
Legendary difficulty, very hard combat, I find going straight for Marionburg makes the Empire campaign even more challenging and thus more fun. This is what happens when you've beaten the Empire campaign 5+ times
Bro why do I suck with ikit, and lord skrolk?
I feel like the view count on this review is a good indication of how unexcited people are/were for this game.
I really liked the writing on the intro and outro blocks, very well done.
putting the video on 1.5 speed army
just spam scorpions
subscribed - i dont have a dog but for the future of any dog i may obtain i want them to be safe
Greatswords perform poorly... are you insane?
Why we suck with Slaanesh? Such a wrong question to ask. Well... that's what Slaanesh does..
How do you do sieges as slaanesh i cant figure it out or autoresolve
Disciple army meat shield or use Chaos warriors / chosen.
Thank you!
You're very welcome sir!
Excellent,as always!
Thank you sir!
How should you alter the early game strategy to deal with Tamerkhan?
look its simple, you level his red skills FULLY before anything else and then forward deploy him and just BEELINE straight to the enemy general. there is literally nothing in the entire game that can stop him.
I hope more people speak up to CA about the generic chaos character mounts. All through TT history with Chaos, Marked Lords and heros do NOT lose access to Manticores (Chimera, who are not in the game) or Chaos dragons. Yep, you can even plop a Khorne Lord on a dragon if you choose. Futhermore, losing one upon marking them is LORE BREAKING. They risk their lives to break these creatures to their will (or risk themselves seeking an unholy alliance with the dragons) and would never ditch them simply because their god of choice finally stuck a mark on them. Chaos is a faction with extemely limited ranged units (and Khorne is limited with the use of ranged AND magic). They need access to those things that should be at their disposal to fill these holes. I see people complaining how straight forward and lacking in strategies alot of Chaos is, but when they have spent most the games lifespan without most of their units and characters, and now still don't have all their montrous mount units, I can see why people would think so. It limits the players choices and strategies. Putting all that aside, I do hope people make it known that they NEED these options to be a complete and fulfilling faction to play. God touched mounts are cool, but in usefulness, it makes marking champions a DOWNGRADE in most cases. And it shouldnt be that way! Better yet, CA could reskin these mounts and "theme" them for all 4 gods. Would be a great way to fluff up these chaos DLCs!
Please don't steal my dog, I subscribed 0.0
do people actually suck at the combat in this game that much? "Giants are difficult" na bra lol they really arent.
Does this guide still apply now that Tamurkhan is to your north and a really angry boy? He came barrelling down with a full stack and I was too focused on ogres and Grimgor to prepare.
@@Wineblood it was unfortunate timing that I released this shortly before Tamurkhan. Tamurkhan is now your chief early game threat. Go north and surround him your dragon ogres. Keep Kholek away from him do you don't proc his death passive.
So basically everything is about numbers instead of tactics? why the fuck they add infantry if is this useless?
Great video m8. Many thanks
@@Sturmavk you're very welcome my good man.
Turn 1, starting battle potion of feeling roll. RNGesus was with you, this was truly a blessed run by sigmar
Oh, hey there plagueridden.
Alright, you have the best takes, sir. Tell me, should I pick up this or Chaos Dwarves. Watched both vids and I’m stumped
@@specioustest4321 I had more fun with Thrones of decay.
@@BlakesTakes420 Alright, I’m thinking Tamurkhan, have yet to play the Nurgle and he looks fun. Good choice?
@@specioustest4321 definitely, Tamurkhan is an excellent choice. All 3 campaigns were very strong imo. Let me know which one you go for!
I really liked pharao. I had no expectations. Do not listen to dramalama bandwagons moaning and just enjoyed it. Compared ti the 426th campaign in warhammer 3, this gave me several many fun hours. It is worse than warhammer 3 is but i had fun. I love egypt. This is one of the top 20 egypt games.
Tell more more about how awful I am, daddy.
The new Kislev basic infantry changed the game, brother. Edit: You are still right about most things, tho. And yes, Kostaltyn is still getting rekkt way ahead of the Kislev mechanic that fuses the factions into one. But at least you can now choose if you even want to fuse with the other faction, if it survived.
Yeah the kislevite warriors slap.
Never stop making these
I dont.
What gem of a channel, congrats good sir! You've made Kugath an actually fun campaign for me.👌
Thank you so much for your lovely comment sir ❤️
ALL THAT MATTER IS THAT BLOOD FLOWS!!!!!
your videos are incredible. Thank you so much!
You're very welcome. ❤️
That intro 😂
i m sick of hearing that i suck :D :D
I do suck with korn yes. I'm hundreds of dollars richer though 😅
For the tech tree, i prefer recherching Wisdoms as fast as possible and buy those new character, i feel like having more armies and more heroes is way more important than 15% reload speed on your catapults :D
Thank you! I knew I was doing something wrong. By turn, 6 I was running a +$1000 deficit and unable to see a way to climb out. Sack first changes everything.
could you please make one for the vampire coast? Lord Noctilus to be specific
A problem i have playing Skarrbrand is twofold. I never know where to go, and i never know when i should recruit a second lord. Im hesitant to recruit a new lord, because my economy may become irrevocably dumpstered. And if it does, then i wont be able to recruit more units, and with a lack of direction, i might not have enough money to recruit more.
That ending though..... Damn Blake..... Just came here for advice, not news on how I'm possesed by a demon :'D
who the hell is arkhan.
Lol. Marienburg is... "precious to you!"
I really never had issues with Skarbrand... in my last campain i did 7 Battles in 1 Turn with Skarbrands army alone... beating 2 Legendary Lords "accidently" So i Think he ist broken
Great video, I was wondering if you are going to revisit nurgle now that he's got Tamurkhan and more units.
Katarin strikes me a someone who enjoys Lasagne
