    Khorne's campaign is one of the most unique ones. I once summoned Skarbrand to Naggaroth when a Cult popped up over there very early in the game purely for laughs but Skarbrand is a very "get shit done" type of guy, so he just kept piling up skulls until the edgelords' lands were all mine.

    When I first played against Skarband in the battlefield. I had my lord behind two frontline units, and he literally plowed right through them and smacked my lord around..., after that he must have felt bored or something because he proceeded to plowed right through another two stacks of units to smack my spellcaster. Never seen any lord do that before lol. I may have won the battle, but at the cost of my dignity.

    I like how Skarbrands lore is that he's a Warhammer 40K deamon that tried to sneak attack Knorne. Knorne loved that Skarbrand attacked him, very on brand but was so disgusted that he tried to sneak attack him that he yeeted him through the warp so hard he ended up in fantasy.

    for blood host armies too damaged to fight i usually just disband the units to cut on upkeep costs but i keep the lord around for the bloodletting bonus growth, and disband it once its fully depleted or the attrition claims it

    I started a Skarbrand campaign the other day using this video as a guide and have been having so much fun. It's ~turn 35 and I have done a loop around the northern Badlands, leaving a trail of blood in a clockwise fashion. I made good friends with Malagor, Skarsnik, and Queek and the northern front is secure (Queek has like 10 settlements over the entire eastern mountain range and is even higher than me in strength rank; Skarsnik, him, and another minor Skaven faction bullied the hell out of the dwarves), and 15 turns after I embarrassed Settra and left him with only Khemri, he gets enough strength to take one of my settlements. Now as my blood hosts finish off the Court of Lybaras on the coast, Skarbrand is currently carving a path through some dwarfs on his way to finally bury Settra's bones for good, save for his skull which will make for a nice trophy. BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE! MILK FOR THE KHORNE FLAKES! KHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORNE!!!!!!!!!

    I am surprised you didn't mention how to optimize razing/sacking. You can cancel the "walking back" animation after you raze or sack a city by selecting the lord in question again and pressing backspace. This cancels the animation and retains your movement.

    Haven’t watched the video yet, just clicked on it. Will come back to this comment and edit after watching. But yes, I do suck with Khorne. Never make it past the early game. Because I never have enough money to build a full army. Khorne’s units so so expensive and outside of sacking settlements his income is nearly 0. Need money to build an army, but can’t build an army without money. Hopefully I learn something from this video.
    Just finished reason #3 and this is probably my issue. I’m so engrained into not using global recruitment because of the recruitment time and extra cost that I try to take capital buildings and hope that the passive ability to populate ruined settlements kicks in sooner rather than later. Maybe I should try this, worrying only about Deff Gorge and not caring about any other settlement
    Edit #2: This point here at 20:20. I don’t know why this never occurred to me, but this is brilliant. I too have a “backup” army follow my main army around, but usually just for auto resolve bonuses or reinforcements on the battlefield. It’s never occurred to me to just use the backup army as a “cleanup crew” so I can sack the settlement AND raze it. That’s definitely a major game changer for me.

    • @BlakesTakes420

    I'm doing the khorne ultimate campaign victory which is to kill all skaven clan, but I'm stuck because everytime I try to make a settlement, I'm always attacked by dwarves and skavens, I'm not even close having the higher tier units, so it's annoying that I'm not getting fancy units when every AI keeps attacking ms. Any tips?

  • @Schmeethe88
    @Schmeethe88 Před 11 měsíci +1

    My biggest hangup with Khorne is tied in with the Bloodletting mechanic. You have to fight a battle EVERY turn, since fighting only sets it to two, so when you end your turn you have to fight another one or it'll hit zero if you end again without fighting. No matter how aggressive I am, I usually just can't reach enemies! Stuff is spread out too far, and that sandy/swampy muck near where you spawn just eats campaign movement like no other. Some settlements are two turns in force march away, and I just can't move around fast enough to keep the meter filled up.

  • @Sh1snoShooter
    @Sh1snoShooter Před 2 měsíci

    I would actually recommend teleporting to the north as Skarbrand. In my testing a cult usually appears in the province with Blood Mountain very early on, and you can build a building to send him up there immediately. Once there, conquer the Khorne faction, Slaanesh faction, Sigvald, and then go in on the Dark Elves who are very wealthy. Blood Mountain also has the best unique building for Khorne imo. It reduces recruitment and upkeep for Exalted/regular Bloodletters by 30% and 25% factionwide. Plus there are a lot of ports which Khorne gets pretty good money from, and with the trophy wrack in those settlements you can make even more money.

    It took me a while to figure out! Feels horrid owning so much territory and having to wait so long to build up defense! That’s why I just sack! Sack until I can’t sack no more, then you make another lord and sack some more!
    Actually, it’s pretty fun! Skarbrand levels up fast and if you find a place like Ekrund, you can hit all three settlements at once and keep Bloodletting high and keep the money and skulls flowing for a bit!

    First time total war player learning how to play on the shiniest and newest entry. Watched mandalore’s review, and decided to try skarbrand based on his description. While accurate, the finer details were not elaborated on. My first attempt is going poorly and skarbrand is not in good shape in terms of skills.
    I’m feeling a lot more confident with your guide, showing the key pillars to success. It’s one thing for someone to say “blood for the blood god, always be fighting” and entirely another thing for you to tell me how I should be fighting.

    Id like to reveal another little known gem for skarbrand campaign. By turn 10-15 you will get enough khorne corruption to have a cult pop up in one of the settlements of the northern chaos waste khorne faction. If you teleport skarbrand there via the cult, and take over the northern khorne factions settlements, in one of the minor settlements there is a secret Khorne landmark, that gives 30% recruitment and upkeep cost reduction for bloodletters and exalted bloodletters factionwide. The landmark will allow the player to raise and spam full bloodletter armies crazy fast.
    and later in the game one of the techs gives bonus replenishment rate for bloodletter units. With the combo of the landmark and replenishment tech you can flood the map with bloodletters.
    I personaly love cheap full bloodletter armies with the landmark. Bloodletters with their speed, very hard hitting AP and tanky lords and heroes leading the charge can very quickly swarm most armies and cut them to shreds in a few seconds making most manual battles end fast. And you can raise, spam and disband multiple armies all over the world.
    Using the combo i finished a very hard long campaign at turn 45 and domination victory at turn 80.
