The Bruiser really just fixed the ogres as far as heroes go, they can team up with a lord or another hero to just punch through anything while also being good at providing a good anchor for your frontlines if that’s what you need.
Ahhh I hadn't even seen they were eligible for Big Names when doing my stat assessment.. I'll try to assemble that info for future campaign related videos. Guardian is fantastic on this kind of unit (like back with Tomb Princes and DE Masters).
@@OffToBattle Btw, checked out your old Art of war in 5 minute videos. Great work! That book applies To so much in life. I find it's helping me with my Muay Thai
One of the heroes that seems to never lose, huge fan of the bruiser. I struggle to find a time to use his sunder armour active.... Mostly because he kills everything immediately anyways.
Yeah, should probably jist be treated more like a support ability to debuff a unit you want dead faster, gnoblars work really well with bruiser, belly stance, terror, where you goin, stand or die and the puncture are all great at buffing gnoblars and just helping to hold the front. Making gnoblars fight longer, harder and wear down enemies faster with terror and less armour to resist those tiny stabbers
I always try to get one with the "boommaker" big name. 4 uses of Restock, plus 30% increased ranged damage for leadbelchers is awesome. And the belly stance is useful to defend leadbelchers from charging flankers.
I think the reason why Belly Stance is going to be mostly used with Pigback riders is because gnoblars are the only unit that doesn't get more out of charging themselves. Ogres tend to be strong on the charge, and among gnoblars the pigback riders are by far the most solid. Also, gnoblars screening leadbelchers gives you a reason to hold ground rather than be the one looking to close.
Hey pigback riders have what was it, CB 30? (I checked, yes it is.) I think it's much more to do with being short enough Leadbelchers can fire over Gnoblars and they're the sturdiest ones... it works out, just reminding people they're actually weirdly good charging at the enemy too. Just not as... fast.
I think a bruiser with tough trait has base 140 armor at lv 1. These guys will just hold bonkers lords at bay(Vlad) in time for your army to crush theirs. It makes choosing a Slaughtermaster or paymaster even better. I love these guys.
Bruisers are so good now, but with the completely silly and fun Bruiser Careers mod, the updated mod for custom Brusier types, makes them just ridiculous! Love these bois!
Two things. 1. Why did they not give him an abilty to use the guns he has on his gut plate? 2. Do you plan to do a video all about big names since both lords and heroes of all kindsget them?
I'm probably going to need to do something updated on big names. I thought the casters don't get them, has that changed? As for the guns, they probably wanted zero crossover with "that" Maneater lord. I wouldn't have minded the help.
@OffToBattle yes casters get big names to which means every lord and hero option has those big names and they now work like warriors of chaos titles (like they should have from the start). Also if they didn't want any cross over they shouldn't have added those pistols. I guess they wanted to do that but maybe got told no wouldn't be the first time.

Agree that it was a big hole that has been nicely filled.
The big names up for grabs makes this hero for me. Guardian and bonus ward save makes them the ultimate body guard for firebellies and skrag.

@@OffToBattleAfter Omens of Destruction, all Ogre characters have access to big names, casters included

It's a good problem to have. I'm sure it's mostly relevant when leading a big force of Gnoblars into the fray.

That's just a filthy combination.

That last part is crucial for the faction for well, fun factor. Options were needed and options, we now have.

I haven't even had enough time to do all my usual stuff, but thanks for the tip about the mods, I'm sure it'll help someone's enjoyment. Cheers!
