@@BurkinaFaso69 That's what's so insulting about it. WoD basically murders all infantry in its path and it can be cast multiple times in a battle with the only requirement being that you have a caster that's a high enough level to cast it. Summoning Sotek can be used once per fight for 10 turns and takes nearly 100 turns to work towards and all it does is knock over your enemies and tickle them.
CA did not change the name of Tenenhauin. GW did release a miniature called Tenehuini, but in the last Lizardmen Army Book (8th Edition), they already changed the name to Tenenhauin.
Durgil2000 yeah I see this a lot in Games Workshop licensed games. For some reason the content creators act like the game devs are responsible for everything. He’s 100% going to have a field day with Tiktaq’to.
S T O L E N M E M E S Yeah, I mean I’m happy for the Skaven since they had the most boring campaigns. Clan Pestilents was the only one I enjoyed, but I don’t play Skaven to play as a bunch of moles with robes. Clan Skryre was a God send from CA, and now I don’t see myself ever playing as the other Skaven ever again. Best Legendary Lord, and actually fun starting position where you can mess with The southern-cuckold realms, Dwarf-things, Orc-things, and once you get real ambitious the Empire, Bretonnia, High Elves. Looks like Lizardmen might take the new mantle of most boring faction sadly 🙁
Im overall a bit sad about this DLC. Great stuff, but tehen feels underwhelming. And the LM are still kind of boring in endgame. Skaven I never liked.. cool stuff they got, but so borderline OP. Played arround 20 Turns with the new skaven lord and it wasnt funny for me. The rocket is OP, the same you could say about the under empire. Once your starting settlement is lvl 3 you are nearly done with new units. Nothing great I was looking forward to. No settlements I would have liked to conquer. And I dont know how to feel about the auto resolve changes for the KI. I guess every campaign wont be the same as another, which is great. But for my tehen campaign it made it pretty boring: No more skaven in Lustria. Only Lizardman I could fight and a few orcs. Where clan mors is.. only Lizardman, so nothing to do there. My only way would be fighting lizardman or going to the DE. I think im done with this campaign. (But I have to say, Im always bored after 50-100 turns.)
Yeah am 167 turns into the campaign and still no snake spell. Fuckin all the lizardmen wiped out everything on Lustria within 50 turns lol. Skaven got wrecked, I killed khalida and high elves, and the southlands are the same. Every race but lizardmen are struggling since I activated the "hey everyone, snake says band together and kill shit" part of the prophecy. Felt like issuing order 66. Plus, I went down the line that buffed skinks thinking MAYBE they'd be strong enough to do something....and so I don't get the +50 sacrifices a turn XD Unless I want to run my ass clear to the opposite end of the map (because of course, killing lizardmen doesn't give sacrifices) I am stuck going around in the ocean, fighting pissant vamp coast armies.
I get you but the thing is skaven only get 3 new units but their campaign was better although the lizardmen got salamanders,an ancient salamander,bastiladon with snakes,stegadon with a beam,ripperdactyles and red crested skinks
This pack has been odd for me, I bought it because I wanted more Lizardmen lords (inc tiqtak) but at the minute I just can't wait for the balance patch.
Well you earned an easy sub with this and your Ikit Claw vid. Great points overall on Tehen, he just feels like a really unrewarding Skarsnik. Maybe if he gave more buffs to all skinks and the sacrifices didn't have such low payoff... anyways, good stuff. Looking forwards to the tictacto vid!
As I said. I love your witty facts and videos with unique style of yours. Good job as always. These videos are my favorite, just entertaining to watch.
well Ikit Claw has been nerfed hard since this video was made, so ehh... oh, and Tehenhauin does have one big advantage over other lizardmen factions; the banners he can find/buy with sacrifices... the banners are really really strong.
The most fun i had with this dlc is building an entire army of ancient stegadons with engine of the gods to turn the battlefield into all out 40K exterminatus
Ikit’s video made me discover your channel, and it’s an autosub. Your humor and commentary is on point, can’t wait to see more of whatever else you can whip up, wether it’s more LL reviews or other types of content.
Idk why, but the only nickname I could think for him was Lizard Moses(Hilarious that he's also called Skink Moses by the community). (Because of the stone tablet.) But he's been one of my favorite campaign lords so far, despite his really hard start, he's fun late game.
I'm honestly surprised how much I like Tiktakto, it's probably because the rocks that all of flying units get do insane fucking damage, and the enemy is too stupid to move out of the way, and watching the health bars go from full to a quarter with a good hit is so satisfying.
Long time Total War Player , spend alot of time on youtube , never wrote reaction in my life, never saw your channel before . But dis good shit jo! Funny & straight to the point, Will visit this channel again
This style of video is REALLY GOOD and entertaining to watch. Please do more of them! They are also very unique (I haven't seen any videos like this for total war) which could be very good for your channel.
T. is certainly underwhelming. I wanted an all dinos or all kroxigors type of lord, not skinks and flimsy pterowhatevers. Do you think there'll be a 5th lord somewhere down the line? WH3 maybe?
@@codybonds why would you wait for the Liu Bei trailer to drop the Zhang Yan video? I thought you were wait for Liu Beis trailer to have it for your video bout Liu Bei
I had a lot of fun with Lizard Moses. Red Created Skanks mulched through rats just fine through the early and mid game, and in the late game he's a decent caster lord on a big dino. Love twee cadence of the video though 🙂
Y’all be dissing my boi Tehenhauin, but he's over here summoning a priest that makes a skink army have -105% upkeep. Which, considering the Lizardmen economy, is rather significant.
If you want your Tene army to be more effective try mixing your army with a comp of about half Red Crests and Javelin Throwers early. They work really well against the early units in other army's. Just use the Red Crests as a holding force and use the spells Tene has to wipe the enemy army. They do really well overcast as well as the Sotek Bastilladon.
I like the new units personally, and teeny can buff the red crests into little monsters in his army and theyre surprisingly fast. But yea... the sacrifices leave a lot to be desired and I do admit the gun teams are more fun lol
Actually Tehenhauin existed in the Army Books too, since 6th edition I believe. CA didn't change anything. CA should have picked up a copy of the 6th ed Lizardmen army book and adapted the Southlands Army list. You get a lot more skink units in that list than in the standard lizardmen list.
That's a good point, the first time i saw that lizardmen spell that shoots down a pillar of light, scorching a blazing trail on the battlefield, i immediately thought "Hammer of Dawn!" (Which is actually a pun in this context...)
Welp, was hoping for some tips and advice after losing my first Tehenhauin campaign but I just got horribly depressed instead. Maybe I should just give up and switch to Ikit
Yeah having played them both now, Ikit Claw feels like a god of destruction to play and his new units are very effective as well. Skink guy is a challenge due to where he starts with no real pay off to make it worth it even after the slog of winning past his start.
I played the mortal empire campaign as Tehenhauin and honestly he became one of my favorite lords and campaigns. idk what it was about it but I really enjoyed most of the game. As for the fielding a second army thing its a while to get too but you can get a specific red crested skink lord that if you stack enough buffs on allows you to have zero upkeep
The funny thing is, i really like playing with Skarsnik, and the idea of cheap massed Gobbo armies where you can actually really support your Gobbos through passive abilities. This DLC did not bring that same feeling. there arent even that many skinks as there are goblins to make a skinks only army.
Except that you have a sacrifice that can give Obsinite Miners that can make buildings 15% cheaper to build in ALL regions and 20% reduced upkeep with the Lotl-Botl Spawn Brothers. So free buildings and free armies, a hard start but amazingly powerful if you know what your doing.
I am so glad I from your channel these are the best videos of Total war Warhammer I've seen so far may I make a request could you do a let's play on The vampire counts or the tomb Kings please and maybe finish the vampire coast, but if you don't want to that's okay I'm just happy I found your channel 😊
My thoughts exactly, Skyre with its workshop, better start (position and units) and focus on good units is actually fun. Just disappointing when you compare the two
Gotta admit, a couple things were kinda left out. With nee rite and lord buffs, tini-weenie's skinks can go toe to toe with chosen while having near 50 speed, and those salamanders melt rat ogres faster than anything else I've ever seen.
My major problem for them is in mortal empires, the servants of chaos second spawn is 7 doom stacks of elites at a time you can only field 2.5 (if you did well in the campaign up too this point) and they ALL come directly for you unless you don't take the awakening, which you have too to fight corruption....
Don't underestimate stacking buffs, events or research.. ;) By turn 100. even my chameleon skinks has over 50 melee attack and defense, 60+ weapon strength, and 80 armour... Did I mention Red Crested also get frenzy? And if you fight in shallow waters, their atk/def increase 100%... Now you can add to this that these are individual stats, and skink units have ~30% more models than saurus… Just test it :D It's fun having an army of speed 42 (?) mini-rambos. Oh and jungle swarm is an excellent support debuff.
are you going to cover every lord/ some lord but every race in total war warhammer II? if so i would like to see the chaos units! they have been one of the more interesting races in total war warhammer I and II
It wouldn't have fixed all the problems, but this round of dlc was in some dire need of some Gor-Rok. I'm going to go ahead and subscribe to you now and dedicate the next five minutes to trying to figure out why I haven't come across you yet.
I totally agree. I played through Ikit Claw in 2 days. But this... I just gave up on lizard moses after 20 minutes, and then returned the next day and played for one hour more and gave up again.
Glad I am not the only one who struggled in his campaign. I couldn't help but remember my experience with Sharsnik and how they compared as they both do the same thing, take that race's crappy low tier fodder unit and try to make them awesome. But Sharsnik is just soooooo much better at this. He is able to buff up his gobbos to the point where they actually win fights. Teenieweenie's skinks get skirmisher and thats it. They could easily fix this with some better Legendary lord buffs and unique skink buffing red tree in the talents, and yeah, buffing the sacrificial tributes. The disparity between Sotek and Ikit's doomrockets is huge. Get some warlock engineer heroes and you can easily steal tech to farm fuel and spam them and they are waaaaaaay more potent. The only really neat thing for the Lizard campaign right now is if you stick with it to tablet 2 he forces all lizardmen and skaven to declare war on each other. Which is sort of neat. But not as fun as nuking an entrenched city from below and destroying both it and whatever army happens to be garrisoned in it.
considering the upcoming DLC, i would change the Invocation of Sotek, for a RoR Dread Saurian that is Ethereal with Magical Flaming Attacks and Inmune to Missiles. Just like how you could build a Dread Saurian in table top. Now that is worth the wait!
Fr fr take your time but I would really love to see you do all the lords. Maybe a biweekly video schedule for it. Your content is fantastic and addicting and I'd watch every video you make
Look, my favourite race are the Lizardmen by far. And they got some really cool units in this DLC! But I'll play with them as Tiktaqto. Or Mazdamundi. Or Kroq-gar. Anyone but Teninhuan, really.
You forgot to mention Tiny Winey’s best feature by far : his units are yellow instead of blue ! Okay, it doesn’t come close to the ultimate swag of the pink lizardmen from the Dragon Isles, but it’s still pretty cool nonetheless.
Hi. I m new and I only have watched this and the Ikit Claw vid. I dunno if you have done video out of my other fave skaven called Queek Headtaker. If you havent pls do. I havent had so much fun and enjoying time in months than watching your vids. :3 Happy easter to you from Finland and see ya around.
@@codybonds Awesome. I can't wait to see more. I'd love you to make a video about Queek next because I find him so funny. I mean crazy rat who talks to himself and pets his thropy rack when no one is watching. I find it kinda cute.
I do think that while the invocation is a little underwhelming, the new units and lords are a great new addition. You might be underselling it a bit because you prefer Ikit but I also haven’t played Ikit’s campaign yet to compare
Tehenhauin is cool cause you can ignore using saurus warriors completely. He has beast lore to empower your downtrodden working class frontline consisting of cohorts, red crested(anti large and armor piercing) , and kroxigors(cleaving through infantry). Add terradons, ripperdactyls, chameleons and salamanders for skirmishing. This will last you until end game armies with ancient salamanders, dread saurians along with the beasts Tehenhauin and your heroes will charge into battle with!
I agree that Tehenhauins early game is incredibly difficult, but he can get hilariously overpowered with free armies and no buidling cost, which gives the Cult of Sotek the potential to be the strongest lizardmen faction. At least if you want to cheese the game
Idea for a fix, give him Sotek from turn 1 and make it like the Doom rocket, except you need to sacrifice people for doing it, and the more often you used the spell in battle, the more sacrifices you need to gain access to it again (also buff the spell itself by like 1000%)
GDI vs Nod One has a giant death laser, the other a Nuke. Now i'm not gonna go over the fact that Skavens are a scheming faction that love green glowing rocks.
All of the units in this dlc are skink units, skinks with 2 hand weapons, skinks riding dinos and kinks on wings This is actually the only lizardmen lord I like to play
I had the same impressions so far. Even if skaven wasn’t my favorite race (besides undead), the skink army got super boring very quickly. The army was just boring to fight with, they needed to add a couple more playable skink units tbh to where it’d be able to compete with all but the highest tier army
Honestly if you did a video of every lord in the game I would watch every one of them.
My subscriber count is skyrocketing from these two videos. There's clearly a demand.
I SECOND THIS MOTION!

If you want your Tene army to be more effective try mixing your army with a comp of about half Red Crests and Javelin Throwers early. They work really well against the early units in other army's. Just use the Red Crests as a holding force and use the spells Tene has to wipe the enemy army. They do really well overcast as well as the Sotek Bastilladon.

But Sharsnik is just soooooo much better at this. He is able to buff up his gobbos to the point where they actually win fights. Teenieweenie's skinks get skirmisher and thats it. They could easily fix this with some better Legendary lord buffs and unique skink buffing red tree in the talents, and yeah, buffing the sacrificial tributes. The disparity between Sotek and Ikit's doomrockets is huge. Get some warlock engineer heroes and you can easily steal tech to farm fuel and spam them and they are waaaaaaay more potent.
The only really neat thing for the Lizard campaign right now is if you stick with it to tablet 2 he forces all lizardmen and skaven to declare war on each other. Which is sort of neat. But not as fun as nuking an entrenched city from below and destroying both it and whatever army happens to be garrisoned in it.
My God i just find out your videos and man did you make me laugh :D Thank you for your amazing humor !!!
considering the upcoming DLC, i would change the Invocation of Sotek, for a RoR Dread Saurian that is Ethereal with Magical Flaming Attacks and Inmune to Missiles. Just like how you could build a Dread Saurian in table top.
Now that is worth the wait!
I was hoping you'd reference Gunther's Teeny Weeny String Bikini song. We were this close to greatness
howled at this one. Literally every time "teeny-weeny" was uttered I lost it
I couldn’t pronounce his actual name
To save my life.
the arc of sotek was amazing in TT - it is appalling in this game
These are awesome videos. Love to see more. Maybe Tic-Tac-Toe or Alberic!
You sir, are brilliant. Hats off, well done!
Buy the DLC and then play Tiktaq'to, he's so fun. My main army is 17 air units and a 3 monsters :D
Huh... You make a valid point good sir! ^^
I'll be sure to stick around for more of this delicious information.
I need a Noob's guide for every lord on my desk by Wednesday or YOURE FIRRRREEEDDDD
If I stopped my actual job to do that, I really would be fired.
Fr fr take your time but I would really love to see you do all the lords. Maybe a biweekly video schedule for it. Your content is fantastic and addicting and I'd watch every video you make
Look, my favourite race are the Lizardmen by far. And they got some really cool units in this DLC! But I'll play with them as Tiktaqto. Or Mazdamundi. Or Kroq-gar. Anyone but Teninhuan, really.
You know you should now do one for every faction ! Continue the memeing !
You forgot to mention Tiny Winey’s best feature by far : his units are yellow instead of blue !
Okay, it doesn’t come close to the ultimate swag of the pink lizardmen from the Dragon Isles, but it’s still pretty cool nonetheless.
Who are the lizard men’s names offensive to? The skeletons of the dead cultures they used to make the faction?
Hi. I m new and I only have watched this and the Ikit Claw vid. I dunno if you have done video out of my other fave skaven called Queek Headtaker. If you havent pls do. I havent had so much fun and enjoying time in months than watching your vids. :3 Happy easter to you from Finland and see ya around.
I just started this series. But the reaction has been strong enough that I looking to go back and make them for the other lords.
@@codybonds Awesome. I can't wait to see more. I'd love you to make a video about Queek next because I find him so funny. I mean crazy rat who talks to himself and pets his thropy rack when no one is watching. I find it kinda cute.
RIDICIFICENT !!!!! = ridiculous/magnificent KEEP IT UP!!!! LOVE YOUR STYLE BRO!
Guess I'll scrap my tehenhauin campaign to pick another lizardmen, it has been a lot of frustration so far (I m a real noob to warhammer 2 tough)
Dragoons? They provide a massive public order bonus. So you garrison them in the hard-to-keep capitals so your actual army can move on.
Hey I like the challenge that it gives you, but kroq gar will always be my favorites
Cody have you seen the warhammer comic "Its a pleasure to serve"? Cuz that might explain the confusion
They make comics? Can you link it?
I do think that while the invocation is a little underwhelming, the new units and lords are a great new addition. You might be underselling it a bit because you prefer Ikit but I also haven’t played Ikit’s campaign yet to compare
Tehenhauin is cool cause you can ignore using saurus warriors completely. He has beast lore to empower your downtrodden working class frontline consisting of cohorts, red crested(anti large and armor piercing) , and kroxigors(cleaving through infantry). Add terradons, ripperdactyls, chameleons and salamanders for skirmishing. This will last you until end game armies with ancient salamanders, dread saurians along with the beasts Tehenhauin and your heroes will charge into battle with!
Love the channel dude.
I gotta beat Mortal Empires with Ikit before CA realizes what theyve done!
Your lord select portraits look different than mine. Maybe I just got the game after they were Updated??
CA updated all of them last year sometime.
I agree that Tehenhauins early game is incredibly difficult, but he can get hilariously overpowered with free armies and no buidling cost, which gives the Cult of Sotek the potential to be the strongest lizardmen faction. At least if you want to cheese the game
Your content are wonderful! Keep working on it, please... Greetings from a Italy by a fellow hystory and mythology' s lover.
Do more of those!
Idea for a fix, give him Sotek from turn 1 and make it like the Doom rocket, except you need to sacrifice people for doing it, and the more often you used the spell in battle, the more sacrifices you need to gain access to it again (also buff the spell itself by like 1000%)
GDI vs Nod
One has a giant death laser, the other a Nuke.
Now i'm not gonna go over the fact that Skavens are a scheming faction that love green glowing rocks.
All of the units in this dlc are skink units, skinks with 2 hand weapons, skinks riding dinos and kinks on wings
This is actually the only lizardmen lord I like to play
Ikit claw is a fucking monster
Each sacrifice really should be a permenant thing or we should get more things to sacrifice
awesome videos, and i agree that Lizardmen got shafted in this DLC.
I had the same impressions so far. Even if skaven wasn’t my favorite race (besides undead), the skink army got super boring very quickly. The army was just boring to fight with, they needed to add a couple more playable skink units tbh to where it’d be able to compete with all but the highest tier army
