I have my fingers crossed that when they eventually add Neferata they'll give Khalida some new toys to play with, considering they're sisters and hate each other.
Oh damn the lore, didn’t know that
they prob wont cause they said they wont add dlc for dlc
Cousins, but I agree with you
@@ridingweeb4801but they already did it
@@KittenCritters IMHO, just buffing one unit is fine... but it really should be a lot bigger a buff in that case.
The "animation time until tooltip" at 5:30-ish can be changed under "Sticky Tooltips Delays" in the options menu (3 sliders, need to press 'apply changes' to test it on the Karl Franz portrait).
Also, Khalida just gets shafted every campaign, it´s kinda funny. First her poison bonus was bugged, then they put her as a "normal" difficulty start in ME (before they removed the difficulty "help"), and her first battle was one of the hardest I´ve ever played (counting only ones I´ve won) in Total War, period.
oooh good to know i was soooo annoyed by that change...thanks a lot!!
Khalida's Blessing of Asaph is one of the things that really makes her clunky to use. She's a melee duelist which means you want her up and fighting but it only has a 35m range which means that if you want to use that skill she also needs to be standing in your archer line. It seems like it would be hard to fix without making it considerably weaker but mapwide though.
Yeah maybe they could have the buff be 10% in the first level of the skill and 15% in the second but mapwide, that would be much more practical
How about making it armywide/mapwide instead? That would fix it instantly
@@Garret007 that’s a good point! Always kinda confuses me how they decide weather make certain bonuses just apply to the army or apply on the battlefield
@@thedeparted8390 yea... I feel you on that
Sepechucal stalkers.......???
FYI, you can make that red bar that fills up on the skill tree UI way faster in settings, highly recommended doing so
I was wondering if they had added that as well or not.
very good to know. thanks
oooh good to know i was soooo annoyed by that change...thanks a lot!!
is this related to the crashes I've been having with leveling up skills lately? It seems if I assign multiple skill ranks the game will crash. It's done this nearly a dozen times since the latest patch dropped.
@@darthcheesecake3392 It might be, it could also very easily be unrelated.
All rites are available without conditions at the start. HE, Tombs, Lizardmen, Vampirates and other factions from the wh2
Thats crazy OP for lizardmen
@@dangbar200 you gotta make the campaign interesting somehow
@@HellecticMojo Less so interesting, more so borign and unchallenging.
What I do instead, is go north for the capital right away and ignore the army to the south. Next turn (2), besiege Lahmia with the enemy army inside. Autoresolve favours the AI so they will sally out from Lahmia and you can defeat them in the field. It is not an easy battle but its definitely quite doable. After the battle, because they are Vamps, you take the settlement during their turn and even get replenishment. Even though Legend's strat is good, its not guaranteed to play out this way. Above strategy is.
Definitely agree Khalida needs some additions, and is generally in need of some love. With that said, for SOME reason, she always ends up being my favourite campaign - and I don't even like tomb kings that much. She's the only one I won a legendary campaign with in WH2.
Cause you like that mummussy.
I think it's her under-dog story that's so compelling.
She was my favourite in wh2, but I always had a hard time taking lahmia
At least Khalida has style!
Every morning I watch up eager to this these new videos!
I really like that a bit more thorough format of these campaign reviews in comparison to the first ones
One thing I'll say, is if you like to play co-op, and you have a friend that likes playing Lizardmen, Khalida + Kroq-Gar is a fun order campaign.
I imagine you'll do the Chord after the rest of the lords and you've had some experience with them
5:35 Just adjust it in the settings, there is even the popup to test the timings on
Love tomb kings she really does get a rough start. I sometimes pick her if I just want a fairly safe side of the map.
Excited for the Chaos Dwarves review!
I've watched a couple of other CZcamsrs describe how great this campaign start was just because you started with artillery. Then I started it up and encountered exactly what Legend described when you head south and then are faced with an immediate crisis to your capital. Suffice it to say I unsubbed those other channels. Thanks my dude!
Looking forward to your Boris review
I started a khalida multiplayer campaign a few weeks ago and I had to chase the silver host in a circle around my province for like 10 turns while my friends did productive things
I had that problem too. The game will give you an option early on to recruit a hero for free. Choose the necrotect because it has Block Army. That should give you a chance to stop the AI from running away from you.
You can tweak the popup menu to instantly appear and stick in the options menu near the Karl Franz picture
These videos continue to be super interesting, Legend. I'm glad you kept them up.
Have you given any thought to maybe playing some of the more interesting starts for the first few turns to demonstrate?
5:26 wow thank you, i was raging last night thinking the ui was broken
CA just loves Frenzy
The duration settings for the red animation on the UI tooltips can be tweaked in the settings. You can make it instant if you like
I love that these went from 1min to 10min lol, kinda makes the old ones a bit obsolete tho alot more info and opinions on the later ones.
Interesting thing about the Tomb King rites being available straight away. I started a campaign as Count Noctilus yesterday and was able to get Queen Bess on Turn 2. Which also requires a rite.
Just saw another commenter mentioned this. I only noticed on turn 2 when I saw the rites icon had '4' next to it but according to the other commenter they are available straight away also.
Noticed the same with Ikit Claw. All the rites were available from the start.
I recently played a Khalida campaign and that turn 2 Lybaras loss didn't happen for me. I just captured Doom Glade. Maybe it's a 3.0 thing. I also feel like Khalida is way better in 3 than she is in 2. I'm not sure if you actually play through these campaigns, but they made a lot of subtle changes to make her better. They changed the Venom Staff to do an AoE, so it's a lot more useful. Her animations also feel a lot better and push enemies around less. She's my favorite TK lord, though that may be because I like ranged armies. My main frustration is that sepulchral stalkers STILL do not have a skirmish mode, so trying to do a stalk army with her is kinda frustrating.
ya never had them attempt to go for Lybarus after taking doom glade, they just recruit in their capital.
What difficulty do you play on? Could have something to do with that cause he only play on legendary. Referring to them attacking Lybaras. It always happens to me as well but I play on hard and very hard
Good to know it’s an aoe now
@@thedeparted8390 I've done everything from legendary to easy. honestly might be a mod I'm using that just changes the garrison enough that the ai doesn't go for it before I've had time to attack the next settlement up from doom glade.
@@thedeparted8390 I play on VH/VH usually, so it should be comparable to legendary with the exception of no saving.
Khalida has a faction where you'll want Recruit Defeated LL mod to gather the other 3. I still like her though, making meh Lords work can be kinda fun on its own. TK also do much better as AI in Wh3, now that they actually can get more armies, not stuck on 5-6 like the entirety of Wh2.
tomb kings def need some love but probably dwarves and lizardmen first some of the older races really lacking
Thanks for the video
Not sure if you know but in the settings, you can decrease the time it takes for that bar to fill up for the info box to stay
I don't love her abilities as a LL, but I do like the start position after you take care of the immediate threats. You typically get to fight both Lizardmen and Khorne which are fun matchups for Tomb Kings.
Im a fan. 🤣🤣🤣 great vid thanks. Would play setra if i can confedarate all tomb king.
Khalida has one of the more interesting start positions I think with Skaven to the north, Dwarves to the West, and Lizards in the South (and then Tzeentch beyond that). With the army limits there is a really good challenge of fighting such different enemies, especially if the Dwarves decide to send all their armor at you!
1:30 It's happened to multiple factions. Lizardmen, for instance, have Rite of Awakening immediately available in turn 1 as well.
Looking forward to hear your thoughts about the new patch!!
You can change those sticky tooltips in the settings , i just turned everything as low as I could so it doesnt have that horrible laggy sticky feeling
Would love if you added a few seconds talking about wether a lord is more fun in warhammer 2 or 3. Something I've been curious about since you started this series.
Just played this campaign for the first time last week.
Yeah, I agree with the double middle finger early game. I captured the Doom Glade, because every other campaign starts like that, then proceeded to play ring around the rosie the first 15 turns trying to catch their army until I finished the tech to recruit another army.
Frustrating for sure, but now the campaign is cooking
lmao that double f u happened to me my first playthrough. I was like wtf and ended up going in circles capturing each others settlements til like turn 10 before I gave up on her.
I am playing a khalida campaign, after dealing with the vampire count around turn 7, I just went straight to deal thorek and get my second army, but after that is where the fun because you have to decide where to go, at this point you should have 3 armies already; and wherever you decide to go you'll be in a not ending battle with skarbrand, queek, probably krop-gar, teclis, kairos, tiqtak-to, volkmar, imrik, wurzag and many of the minor faction, so you will be always traveling putting out fires. One of my favorites campaign that I have played since the oxyotl one. You always have something to do and have to be doing something because you will lose territory so easily. So for me 9.5 out of 10
Khalida has a lot of great mods
Oof, what a bastard start. Thanks for this review!
"The closer you are to an enemy character, the higher the chance you get pulled out of ambush stance". Is it gradual or by thresholds? Just to know if there is a safe distance or more like a relative security one.
I would like to see a video about the mounts the various LLs can get.
Not every LL´s possible mount is as legendary as the Lord they carry into battle.
Setra has two really powerful ones, which is better for what? As so on.
my start was different, i did capture doomglade and when the army forcemarched down to attack lybaras I won that fight. it IS a winnable fight, it's just really fucking hard. the garrison in Lybaras is JUST strong enough to kill the stack they attack you with, the hardest part is killing the lord. don't shoot him, use all your ammo on the ghouls then when he is the last unit left have 1 unit at a time fight him to maximize your vigor and wear him down. protect your "leader" unit until the very end.
after winning that extremely difficult fight you can get a 20 stack and take lahmia, and steam roll the vamps out of the game. BUT... then you have to deal with the quadruple threat of the lizards, the dwarfs, queek, and skarbrand all trying to kill you at once.
it's one of the hardest campaigns for sure. definitely the hardest turn 2 in the game if you try and kill the stack with your garrison.
The removal of rite unlocking condition is not just for tomb king but for every race with rites
Im pretty sure the AI can see you are ambussed now. They just bring an army towards a "free" settlement bait, but theyll refuse to launch the attack over the turns. Had it happen in a couple campaigns.
Rites are also readily available for skaven, at turn 1
At least for Skryre.
The bug with the rites is also for the Vampire coast. I could recruit the Queen Bess as Noctilus on turn one.
Yeah I instantly thought of that when Legend mentioned the rites being available. In my campaign I didn't notice until turn 2.
Also the 3.0 patch breaks the rites for lizardmens as well, maybe all the war II factions have all their rites available right at turn 1 now, didn't test it out for the other
You can shorten the time it takes for the info card to stick. I think it's stick time in settings
My favorite LL. She could use some developer attention, though.
it's not only the tomb kings who has broken rites, HE also has all rites unlocked right on 1st turn
She is a beast on the battlefield … good MA and MD …
Still doesn't compare to Settra, Arkhan and even Khatep shes basically an upgraded version of a Tomb king generic lord.
In the settings you can change how the popups work. I have it set so it sticks instantly and disappears as quickly as possible.
Feel like Zhatan is meant to provide an easier start to learn the Chorfs with given the cushy starting position. He could be a little more interesting though.
So, are you going to make a video regarding the patch or the new DLC or anything new about Warhammer 3 for that matter?
I have my fingers crossed that when they eventually add Neferata they'll give Khalida some new toys to play with, considering they're sisters and hate each other.
Me: Where is Legend of Total War?
Them: 0:01
OHHH no wonder i could do Imrik's special rite from the get go, i was like "wait was this always available on turn 1"
That happened to me! Gave up very quickly...... Doh!
Just FYI the tool tip pop up speeds can be adjusted in the settings.
I've played this campaign multiple times on very hard and the second army never comes down after I take doom glade on turn one. Maybe the patch changed behavior.
I ussually loop around and beat the second army in the moutain province push to lamia and seige it and wait for the hero event to get a necrotect. I unlock the necrotect rite and raze Lamia then reoccupy it at lvl 3.
Hey legend , do you talk with the CA staff abou the bugs you encounter, like the rites now or the army in the cylostra video , that is bugged out of the settlement ?
And do they listen , or just ignore the feedback ? I mean some of these problems should be very obvious right.
For example when I played Thorek , the confederation event didnt happen and I was pretty frustrated , that something so obvious is still bugged. I couldnt even confederate the dwarf faction in the normal way , there was just an option for military alliance.
I think they fixed the army being in the city this patch
Neferata vs Khalida could be the queen and the crone we deserved
played a few turns morathi and had the same with the rites.. unlocked
For the tooltip, there is a setting for it to make it instant
All I heard was "Double middle finger" and that's all I needed to hear.
I capture doom glate allways turn 1, recrute what is possible and force march back to Libaras. The second army retreats after they see you most of the time.
Do you plan to make any videos for the new DLC? Or you do not plan to check it out even after release?
I hope they'll give Khalida some necrotect bonuses at least.
Wondering what Legend's thoughts on her mount options?
i did not see Khalida when i saw the title i thought it was Kinda Immortal Empires Campaign Review
I started an Imrik IE and noticed I had all the rites from turn 1. Don't remember if they had to unlock theirs.
The rite bug is with some other races as well cause i was playing Alith anar and i had all my rites unlocked as well.
Feel like there’s something I need to bring her…
Oh well. I’m sure it’s not important.
the new "UI change" can be configured in the settings, I personally made it to stick faster
SFO+Tomb kings extended makes Khalida much more interesting. She is the only one of the original LL able to recruit royal archers from the mod, has a special mechanic to defeat vampires, special techs, etc
What I would change:
- beloved of asaph: give poison att for range units for all armies
- blessing of asaph: into map wide ability
- embodiment of asaph: also give Ravenous Dead healing for snake units only for lords army
- lybaras best skill: instead of more ammo should be armor piercing att for skeleton archers for all armies
- warrior-queen of lybaras: should also give more range for skeleton archers (up to 170 or 175 or 180)
So with those changes she and her faction have (as it should be) super strong archers, other range units are better, and she can have better snake doomstack!
Khalida is very cool, i like her.
Every time I have tried this campaign I just get crushed by the dwarfs from the west. Even if I play nice with them they always declare war on me and crush me
Legend you can change how quickly the tooltip windows will stick to the screen, and how fast they will be removed once you move the cursor away. Its in the general game settings.
Its Not Just the tomb Kings that can do thier rites without the prerequisits, the high elves can do so as well
So now would that be a bug or a feature of 3.0?
i like to take the capital on turn 2. ignore the army to the south, go straight north, recruit a couple of troops, and kill the other lord in the capital before he has a chance to build up too much
I like her design
Always this grumpy kind of aura.
I used Khalida as my general in the tabletop game years ago and have always been drawn to her as a legendary lord in TW respectively.
What you’re suggesting for a start is spot on, the player also needs to swing back down and take out the vampire counts quickly because more often than not the lizardmen to the south will declare war on you around turn 20, so building towards ushabti is really important to handle their infantry. Fortunately all of this got easier in TWW3 than it was in TWW2 but an unprepared player will get overwhelmed by lizards early. Ambushing with Khalida is prime big brain tactic.
The thing with Khalida... I'm always worried that I'm taking too long to get things rolling. At what turn are people usually completing their main objectives?
Don't be too concerned about progressing quickly. Legend plays to be hyper focused on efficiency and getting the absolute max from each turn, you don't need to do that to enjoy the game.
Dj Khaled should be her legendary hero.
I dont like how they changed the composition of her starting province its extremely hard to capture and hold the entire thing where in warhammer 2 it wasnt as hard to hold and defend it.
Honestly I disagree with Khalida being the weakest, in my opinion that's Arkhan the Black, Khalida's faction boosts are insane as legend points out, as a melee fighter she's decent but she's definitely not as strong as Settra. She boosts ranged unit's near her which is especially good on Ushabti Greatbows, which you generally want to get a lot of in general to replace skeleton archers and are one of the best units in the Tomb Kings roster. The problem I have with Arkhan the Black is he has vampire count units, that all suck in general (except Hexwraiths). They lack armor piercing and you generally want more of a front line to hold back enemies, tomb guard will hold out much longer than crypt ghouls. Hexwraiths though are really good cavalry in general and can be a decent alternative to nehekhara horseman if you want more armor piercing or magic attacks. Arkhan as a spellcaster is decent, but not that special compared to other legendary lord spell casters. Khatep is a better spell caster and has better faction effects.
Did you consider how much of a boost a 2nd starting army is for arkhan and how much easier it is to get going with the campaign, and being a fast Spellcaster is much stronger than a melee lord that wants to sit next to her archers, on top of that the vampire units work very well with the tomb kings roster as additional flanking units which they normally lack
@@Nightmare_52 Nehekhara horsemen are insanely good and u can get a decent amount of them quickly, a second. Starting army is useful but it's probably the only exciting faction effect arkhan has. Vampire count units I still disagree with tbh, Even as a flanking unit they're not as effective as melee ushabti or nehekhara horsemen, hexwraiths I still think is a solid unit and cairn wraith are alright so long as there is no magic attacks
Kholek's start is tricky now. Got my face eaten by orcs and ogres turn two.
the rite thing is also true for skaven i think atleast for tretch
In all honesty, it makes a hell lot of sense that capturing doom glade spells your doom
Just happens to test this campaign yesterday for the new patch, and yep funny joke to see my capital being plundered by those vampires bastard turn 2, verry funny.
5:37 you can change that waiting time from settings.
I could recruit a second army on turn 1. I thought they changed it from WH2 to 3.
It seems that 3.0 is superbugged. All kinds of weird stuff happening In my campagins. Popups go random and missions work or dont work.
Is a duelist
Has no armor piercing
The new kislev hero has more armor
piercing, bonus vs infantry, a bow, and can cast magic.
HQK.. in WHII Rakarth would harrie one ..Lahmia has a good resource. and no Vampire cousin yet.
My favourite character and faction from 2. Loved playing the mortal empires campaign.
I also really like: Allarielle, Crone Hellebron, Vladdy, Belegar, Noctis, Durthu, Wurzag, Franz, Zhao, Katarina, Tyrion, Eltharion, Imrik, Tiq, Deathmaster, Malagor, Wulfric, Couronne and finally Kroq.
Huh. That's some body count. I'm kind of a slut. 😂
