I know I'm late but huge thanks to you and your guide. Those 5-6 first turnes made my Eltharion campaign beyond enjoyable. Although I play Total Wars since forever, I still learned quite a lot. Thanks again!
man I've seen a couple of your videos and I just wanted to say that they are some of the most informative straight to the point vids on youtube, ill be staying here for longer keep up the great work bro
My first ever WH2 campaign win was with Taurox. I keep putting aside campaigns because everyone sounds awesome. After watching a lot of these videos about the high elves, I think Yvresse will be my next campaign! Knowledge really is power with these guys. You can’t just brute force your way through a campaign like I did with the Beastmen haha
Congrats, getting a campaign win is an achievement many never get to, so good job! There's different playstyles from the different races that change quite dramatically. If the HE feel too sanitized you could explore the DE as well as they require aggression for their economy. If you're looking to only finish one HE campaign before you move on, Yvresse is a challenging start but has the richest mechanics: the prison and more units than any other HE means you'll get the full experience. Good luck!
@@ElvenPlotArmour Thanks for the advice dude! I watched your dark elf campaign overview and I’m so torn now haha. I’m really looking forward to the campaign masteries, if you’re heading in that direction!
Very awesome and underrated guide. As a TW vet, Warhammer is brutal if you don't know the lore or the special abilities and there are tons. This is the only thing I needed - a point in the general direction. Yvresse is also a very strong faction - A/S tier easily.
Appreciate the comment. Thanks mate! I have a playlist breaking down the intricacies of each faction. All High Elves are done and they contain the subtle tactics to help them all excel. Yvresse are certainly A+. Tyrion's cosy start and the WH2 diplomacy system made him S Tier. In IE he's certainly falling to A+ along with Alarielle imho. TLDR: every other high elf faction is going to drop a grade due to local threats except Yvresse (he'll stay the same imho) and Caledor (slightly improved).
thank you playing 3 player head to head warhammer 3 mortal empire didnt understand the imprison. I completely butchered my start and stats with eltharion. Thank you sir
Glad to help mate. This was tough, no question about it! The first 5 steps were the only way I could find without relying on luck when on Legendary, and even then it's tight haha
It's actually possible to destroy the Greenskins on Ulthuan on turn 4 and then disbanding the armies on Ulthuan to be able to focus on growth and economy. You will have to recruit a second lord on 1 turn to be able to do that and you will run a deficit and might even take some attrition, but it will be worth it.
I'd have to try it out, but there's definitely room to fine tune. I try to leave people with as many units as I can to make the playthrough as enjoyable as possible. How'd you got with that? Sound good!
Love the video! Small question but if you did play the diet Tyrion way, how do you eventually get Tyrion to confed? Even when he has a slightly lower BOS, he refuses to confed -.-
Thanks mate, in terms of getting Tyrion when you've gone Diet-Tyrion it ends up making things harder as you're perceived BoP ends up being lower. The biggest advice I can give is use influence to sabotage any near-confeds he has while boosting your own relations to box him in by confederating his neighbours first. If you don't get him early it becomes a late game ordial or simply revolves around waiting for Tyrion to fall in battle while having similar enemies to keep the relationship positive,.. Don't keep paying him waiting for confeds to happen when it feels like a stretch. Follow your gut otherwise you can just spend money on bolstering his armies too much which sets you back....
So you're saying that I shouldnt be sieging out the shrine of khaine by turn 10? Ok lets have another crack at this 😂 Also "Diet Tyrion" man this is so true! Great video, subbed.
Don't worry mate, we've all gotten ourselves into trouble at some point listening to that cursed Sword ;) As a rule of thumb, avoid that northwest corner of Ulthuan all together until the mid game - let the others deal with that and focus on the Badlands. Let them fight for you and confederate Alarielle and inside the donut first and you can use Ulthuan to fund your crusade, Lionheart style.
It’s crazy how quick these videos can become outdated sometimes. You would need to redo every faction monthly to keep relevant. If you wanted help with production I might be able to help with more than a couple different things. It’s a great game.
Good point. It's not usually 'that' bad though. Guides tend to ask a couple of years unless a major patch really changes things. Eltharion seems to be one of those factions that keeps getting changed on the regular!
Absolutely! Managing 2 territories is always difficult but the experience and riches are always worth it in the campaigns that set you up to pull it off (just like our boy here!). Plus, if things get dicey you can always insta-summon Mist Walkers and RoR's ;)
@@jellydamgood Cheers mate, I try to design runs that are accessible/consistent that push enough limits to give a strong start but also deliver excitement and hard decisions. These 'expedition' type campaigns always seen to bring that and are so much fun to design. I've got similar videos for Teclis and Alith Anar I hope you might enjoy. Regardless, appreciate the support and thanks for supporting the channel!
Don't know why, but it always seems 10 times easier for legendary difficulty to confed than on very hard, tried this tactic, but saphery refuses to confed with me having a stronger army and more territory...
Hey mate, sorry to hear it's being a pain. To clarify, the rank doesn't actually matter. It's the balance of power bar and the armies that are relative to their territory that make them feel the heat to confederate. It's definitely more difficult or harder difficulties to get relations positive, but the calculations are the same. It's the various factions interacting with them that's creating ebbs and flows. In a few turns the opportunity will come :) check out my diplomacy guide for more details if that's of any interest.
@@ElvenPlotArmour Hey, Thanks for the response! Felt like I was ranting a bit before and did not think you would answer me. Just want to say that it was a very useful guide and I really appreciate the effort you put into it. I know there is a lot of rng when it comes to confeds and well most of the game, so you can't follow guides to 100%, but thanks for the clarification why sometimes it is harder, think I sold some units in Ulthuan army to start to build up Eltharions army in the south. But tried doing it without that aswell and still didnt work, so I guess just a badluck game I had.
u actually want him to come back to his capital bcs u can bseige it and get some free influence from this army, 3 lord kills 1 at 1 st turn secound when besigneding and third when attacking capital bcs the sige machine will be ready with your army just bcs he WILL atack u when u besige galbaraz tested a lot times ( dont forget to reciut 3 archers after first battle) 2:15
here am i... almost finishing conquering the americas with malus (started with malekith... that's the only way to play malus... start as malekith and confederate him...) and im think: I want to do start an hig elf campaign... but who? Imrik? Eltharion? Tyrion? i just dont know... With tyrion i spam shielded LSG with him being a nuicence to the front lines... with ethalrion i do the same but with his faction only units... and imrik i end up doing the same xD but with dragons this time...
Thanks for watching. The first High Elf Campaign should always be Tyrion imho. Fun fact, his best mid-game army is actually fire mage (dragon mount), 10-14 archers, x4 silverin guard and some hero support as he gives discounts to most of those units. Check out my "Save Imrik Turn 7" and you'll absolutely breeze through the HE. DE require much more execution so have fun :)
@@ElvenPlotArmour Dont get me wrong, i have this game since the slacking Start with no Immortal empires xD i've already painted the map with almost all of the factions (not trench... We dont talk About him). I was just saying that i honestly dont know which Will i play again. But i Will check out vídeo. Imrik is the only h elf that, when not playing him, i can never, Ever, Confederate.
Great video thank you. I made the mistake of destroying the herd to try and get the province. I also made the mistake of letting Ork-boyz confederate. I am looking forward to the next try where I separate the Greenskins with influence, and I let the Bull fuck off.
Cheers for watching! Eltharion's opening moves are among the most crucial out of any faction and throwing Malagor into the mix definitely didn't help! Yvresse are still one of the top HE factions but that start is not friendly for a first timer!
Hey, firstly thanks for giving this run a go and sorry you're hitting a wall! I've not seen that happen in any of my testing? You did you eliminate the initial army with similar losses? Other than that the usual culprit that messes with AI behavior is mods if you any. Let me know how you go!
Hi mate, don't stress, Total War is confusing, poorly explained but actually not that complicated. I've got a Basics video that I promise will help your game, stick with it, there's some gold in there! (ruclips.net/video/anXCV-prPT0/видео.html). Recruitment: you can only recruit if you are within the borders of a province you control. A province is comprised of several settlements - all benefits from every building in the province add together and you can recruit from any building, regardless where you are standing in the province. If you are out of your province (in neutral or hostile territory) you can typically only recruit globally when in encamp stance (requires 50% of your movement). This is roughly double the time and price, typically undesirable. Encamp stance also helps replenish your forces when away from home. Your capital province is generally for recruitment and your expansion for economy in the early-mid game. If you're really new to Total War, I have a fundamentals video too which could help. Good luck mate!
Yeah mate, all guides and demonstrations are done on legendary. I try to design runs which accommodate all difficulties and avoid cheesing to keep them as inclusive as possible.
I'm a HE main but do intend to work my way through all the races. I'm only a couple months in so it's early days but my goal is to make the most concise and accurate guides to all play styles (not just my own opinion). Given the time this takes I'm trying to keep a focus to ensure the content is as complete as possible. Thanks for the comment and sub. Which faction do you play btw?
@@ElvenPlotArmour I do have preferences but I have tried them all. I hate Skaven - both to play as and against, I find Wood Elves except Drycha boring and I find Dwarves' roster too limited in terms of speed and mobility because it massively hurts their battlefield control. I find High Elves are so strong it can become boring to play as them and I wish there were more field battles in campaign so we could make fast units more viable because war lions, chariots and cavalry have very limited uses in sieges which make up the majority of battles but they are such fun units. That said they have some very cool mechanics like the Rite of Vaul, influencing diplomacy with influence and their character traits and their very large magic lore selection and heroes are great. They also have great legendary lords. But my favourite is Vampire Counts. Their faction could use a lot of work such as to the tech tree, their available traits (eg Determined should not be a thing), followers with indeterminate scopes and follower and banner variety but I find them to be extremely powerful in the right hands in campaign - probably not so much in multiplayer. They can be as powerful if not more powerful than High Elves but the difference is High Elves take no time at all to be powerful and can expand freely whereas Vamps are very much a slow burner that cannot handle rapid expansion without major problems and honestly they are not a beginner friendly faction whereas High Elves definitely are. I think what you're doing is great work and it's very clean and well done so keep it up.
@@SGProductions87 The high elves could take a couple of nerfs that would stop them snowballing so hard as well as new naval threats. Vampire Counts are awesome and they'll likely be one of the first revamps in the new ME campaign. Regarding Skaven, some advice you may already know, but you can shutdown their ambush with lord skills, followers and most races have an 'ambusher' trait if you finish enough turns in ambush stance. Together these bring the odds in your favour and severely neauter the Skaven. Apologies if you knew this already, I just used to despise them and now they're not a problem after learning the above. Cheers again.
@@ElvenPlotArmour honestly it isnt the stalking ambushes that bother me but rather the extreme pain they do with high armour ranged units, units that rout all over the place and come back to fight, their poison skirmishers are a nightmare to catch and pin down, and the warp lightning spam. The thing is I know how to shut these things down but once they get tier 3+ units, heavy casualties are certain whereas against other factions, 0-100 losses can be feasible.
I dont think High Elves should be nerfed btw. The nature of Ulthuan makes them strong due to the gates and difficulty entering the inner ring. I love how they are. They are meant to be strong. One thing I'd love for you to cover is the noble's Increase Trade. I cannot get this thing to work. Maybe a short video can explain how it works, whether that's different to how it's said by the tooltip to work and what players need to do to get the best out of it. I'm of the opinion that it has been broken and bugged since WH2 release but there may be something you can show us all that proves scientically otherwise.
Any time mate, ask away. To help you out in the mean time, you use the warden's cage to capture a lord during battle. Once captured you execute the lords to earn upgrades which either help you level up Eltharion, get influence or access more Mistwalker Units. Full faction guide for Yvresse come out this week. Cheers!
@@EldenLord. I've given it a look. Definitely more difficult to balance but I think I can crack it :) Giving up Yvresse and confed'ing back in would probably be easiest but let's face it - people want it all haha!
@@ElvenPlotArmour There is also the thing that I am not that great at the game :). So that might be a "personal" issue here I guess. For me, at around turn 20 two Skaven clans (Clan Mors and Skryre) declared war on me and they came from two sides doing sort of a pincer move on me. On the nothern side I was still at war with some orcs and vampire coast. At that point I didnt have the money to deal with so many fronts at once. Maybe I fucked something up in diplomacy but that wasnt fun lol.
@@EldenLord. I have a Yvresse guide coming out today/tomorrow. You're right, it's tough but I found a great answer. Hopefully you're subbed or check later to see it :)
you need to destroy harbinger of disaster as soon as possible because if you let him he will grow too powerfull and his chaos will cause major public penalties
His corruption can definitely be a pain and it's great to remove him when possible. In my testing the biggest risk of going for him early is it takes your focus away from the stronger provinces to the north where the Greenskins 'will' attack you sooner than later. Malagor tends to ignore you if you don't get in his way, allowing you to establish your main provinces before removing him. I completely agree, Malagor's addition to this campaign really ramped up the difficulty!
May I ask you subscribe or tune in tomorrow.... Spoiler Alert IE - Eltharion - 2 Kingdoms - PERFECT 20 Turn Guide is being edited as we speak ;) And yes... designing the run was a f'ing headache! It's much more complex now!
Awesome! Can't wait to learn more from you =) Yeah not only the orcs are much stronger now they also removed all the good units AND nerved recruiting options at start so much i could cry =(
Dude, slow down! It feels like you're in a race to get the words out as quickly as possible. Especially when combined with the frequent cuts, I'm still trying to situate myself with what's on screen when I realise that I'm already behind trying to follow what you are saying. If it seems fine when you listen to it, don't forget that you already know what you're saying - that makes a big difference to how easy it is to follow.
Appreciate the feedback mate. It's a difficult balancing act. I want to jam as much value for the viewer as possible to give them the most, while still making the video short enough to be enticing enough to watch. Funnily enough it takes several hours more to script/shoot/edit a short video like this than to make a 2 hour Let's Play but if I can help more people it's worth it. Honestly cheers and it's a great incite that with multiple locations (like Yvresse) needs a slowdown in cuts.

Giving up Yvresse and confed'ing back in would probably be easiest but let's face it - people want it all haha!
@@ElvenPlotArmour There is also the thing that I am not that great at the game :). So that might be a "personal" issue here I guess. For me, at around turn 20 two Skaven clans (Clan Mors and Skryre) declared war on me and they came from two sides doing sort of a pincer move on me. On the nothern side I was still at war with some orcs and vampire coast. At that point I didnt have the money to deal with so many fronts at once. Maybe I fucked something up in diplomacy but that wasnt fun lol.
@@EldenLord. I have a Yvresse guide coming out today/tomorrow. You're right, it's tough but I found a great answer. Hopefully you're subbed or check later to see it :)
Nice
you need to destroy harbinger of disaster as soon as possible because if you let him he will grow too powerfull and his chaos will cause major public penalties
His corruption can definitely be a pain and it's great to remove him when possible. In my testing the biggest risk of going for him early is it takes your focus away from the stronger provinces to the north where the Greenskins 'will' attack you sooner than later. Malagor tends to ignore you if you don't get in his way, allowing you to establish your main provinces before removing him. I completely agree, Malagor's addition to this campaign really ramped up the difficulty!
was my absolute favourite in wh2 but in wh3 they changed the start of eltharion a lot. way too hard for me now =(
May I ask you subscribe or tune in tomorrow.... Spoiler Alert
IE - Eltharion - 2 Kingdoms - PERFECT 20 Turn Guide is being edited as we speak ;)
And yes... designing the run was a f'ing headache! It's much more complex now!
Awesome! Can't wait to learn more from you =)
Yeah not only the orcs are much stronger now they also removed all the good units AND nerved recruiting options at start so much i could cry =(
Oh and additionally Khorne comes to Galbaraz to welcome you in the badlands while greenskins and ogres in the north declare war ^^

Dude, slow down! It feels like you're in a race to get the words out as quickly as possible. Especially when combined with the frequent cuts, I'm still trying to situate myself with what's on screen when I realise that I'm already behind trying to follow what you are saying. If it seems fine when you listen to it, don't forget that you already know what you're saying - that makes a big difference to how easy it is to follow.
Appreciate the feedback mate. It's a difficult balancing act. I want to jam as much value for the viewer as possible to give them the most, while still making the video short enough to be enticing enough to watch. Funnily enough it takes several hours more to script/shoot/edit a short video like this than to make a 2 hour Let's Play but if I can help more people it's worth it. Honestly cheers and it's a great incite that with multiple locations (like Yvresse) needs a slowdown in cuts.
I thought you said "No underwear access"🤣
T'would welcome the taint of Slaanesh!
