@@enzovignati I agree. I hope he gets an artist to maybe go back and make new art for some of the factions, or at least keep getting artists for new content.
Today's misery brought to you by the letter E. That's right, E for emotional damage...of the enemy being made into slaves for sweet sweet gold. Love this new faction.
The Darkborn Priestess wears far more than I expected. The Elven Enclaves (meant to represent the High Elves) has an elven sorceress icon that shows far more skin. Ironic since that elven sorceress also has ebony skin, which is usually something associated with Dark Elves instead of High Elves. Will the skins get swapped around at some point?
Well, the highborn elves is AI art while these new ones are from an actual artist, so hopefully more art will be made for other factions and the will be more in line what you would expect. But I think the art looks great for what it's worth.
I was a bit disappointed that the only unique level up was Slavers: I love the Chaos and Lizardmen unique upgrades. That said, Slavers is actually super powerful, and good training for once enemies actually rally at higher difficulties. Also Hydra is the ultimate tanking unit. You'll enjoy it.
I was also a bit disapointed with the level-up traits for the infantry since they only get slaver. The units themselves are really fun and slaver is cool. But I would like it if they got something flavourful besides slaver like most other factions get. The cav and ranged cav upgrades had some interesting choices though. I'm sure I will. Definitely getting a hydra next time we play them.
We can hop that in time More will be added. This is the initial release of the faction and all the others have had mechanics, units, etc added over time.
Slavers is so strong. If you hold the mouse over the coin earned after fight you can see how much you get. Also Slavers and coin counter actually stacks. One run i earned like 200 gold vs ratswarm army
My record was 264 gold from a non elite fight vs rats... but I got slavers on all units, also i intentionally dont surround them, so that I can farm them even harder. And idnk if its fixed but you get gold from overkilling them and coin counter also adds to slave gold 😂😂
@@Martinutenetternavn That is pretty nuts. I don't think I got anywhere close to that. But I assume you would have to have it on all your units and get a fight with lots of units. Most fights probably don't have enough units to kill for it to reach those numbers. :P
@@lazygrouse oh yes, get it on everyone and then a hero with coin counter and you get like 2500++ gold on a run. At the end you litterly buy every banner and uppgrade you can get 😆😆 and still got gold in the bank. That run i think i met skaven 2 times, as well as undead horde... so much money
You do have the option to flee if you don't want to take a charge and can pin down the charging unit next turn (58:00 ish). When in the middle the route won't send them past the border, careful with flying and fast cav units though ;-)
I love the Dark Elves, the slavers perks is awesome on the cavalery!!! So much money, the Hydra is awesome up to 7 wounds. (third is dragon) Edit and I prefer the perks of the noble, looks really nice!
you know that meme of a dog drinking tea in a burning house? that's what i see everytime you say: "that's fine" enemy roll all his 5+: that's fine, failing a 9+ moral: that's fine. missing every 4+ to hit: that's fine, getting rear charged by a giant: that's fine. it's all fine.
Haha, that is how I feel sometimes. But sometimes you just got to roll with the punches and convince yourself that it will be fine. So don't worry about it, it'll be fine. ;)
I thought something about the dark elves looked different. Like better and more uniform. I'm glad the dev is starting to use proper art. Hopefully the project is enough of a success for him to go back and have the other factions art redone this way.
Slavers feels a bit OP. Maybe it should only apply on fleeing enemies or (in case the game doesn't track that on account of units automatically rallying when charged) from the rear or flank.
I think slaver is hard to balance, if you only get from fleeing units, it might be too weak because other factions get stats and rerolls in place of slaver. But as is, it might be a bit strong, hard to know though.
@@cp1cupcake If you win a difficulty 7 run, you unlock difficulty 4 for all other factions. I think the same is true for example difficulty 6 or 5 unlocks difficulty 3 and so on, but I'm not sure.
@@stryke-jn3kv I had to go back and check, and you're right. "There is now a global difficulty unlock level for Campaign. It's based on total amount of difficulties completed between all Commanders/Factions and will gradually unlock up to level 4." So it's just the more difficulties you unlock over all factions the higher the starting difficulty is new factions or factions you haven't played.
To be fair, some of them are pretty decent. But looking at the minotaurs king you can kind of tell. His hands are just meatballs with axes stuck in them.
Its awesome they finally commissioned a artist to make the faction units image, its about damn time, the AI icons are truly hit or miss

@@lazygrouse As a artist, hope they get more people on the game and remake the other faction too
To be fair unless I am mistaken it was a one-man show until now.
Thanks man, loved working on this ☺
@Impetigo You did an awesome job! Love the priestess and raptor rider art. Hope you get to do some of the other factions too.

Yeah, it seems incredibly strong. The witch elves racked up so many kills by the end of this run I could have probably bought another unit by the end.

I know, but I didn't realize how bad that could be until after I committed to the charge. But it didn't turn out that bad. :)

Same, they were super fun this run. Going to have to do another one soon with the noble and the hydra.
Dark elf winter on both game uploads. I'm so pumped

The AI art has been my only complaint about this game. Absolutely delighted to see real art make an appearance
@@ratz30 Same, it's awesome to finally get it.
How do make it that you will be able to see the range of your enemy's?
X/C shown you and the enemies charge range, and Shift+X/C shows shooting range.
Morathi be proud.
DRUCHII!!
How do you start at challenge level 4 with a brand new faction?
@@cp1cupcake If you win a difficulty 7 run, you unlock difficulty 4 for all other factions. I think the same is true for example difficulty 6 or 5 unlocks difficulty 3 and so on, but I'm not sure.
@@lazygrouse I think it's more gradual than that? I've won a difficulty 7 run just the two times, and my first dark elf run started on difficulty 3.

@@lazygrouse Thanks
is there no 'toughness' equivalent stat in this game?
@@Yarkoonian There is defence, which I guess is closest to toughness. Having higher skill also protects a bit. But no true toughness.
