    A counter to your ambush rant at the end. Thanes have a skill that increases ambush defense by 10, and runesmiths have one that increases ambush defense by 20. Every Dwarf lord except Grombrindal has the ability to get 30 ambush defense as well. Combined with stances (underway and encamp) some traits, plus the tech it's almost impossible to ambush a dwarf army with leveled up heroes. I didn't see the skill tree on all 5 of his thanes, but I'd imagine he has at least 50% ambush defense chance in normal army stance even skipping over the tech.

    • @darkrite9000
      @darkrite9000 21 день назад +4

      Yeah, generally speaking while you can get a ton of ambush success chance as skaven, dwarves have a lot of ambush defense chance. But if an ambush did happen, it would be a potential problem, as ambush success chance and then ambush defense chance directly fight each other. So if both are at 100%, then the ambush success chance depends on the terrain on map. Otherwise it'd depend on who's got more surplus on their chance. At least based on what I'm currently aware of. But even a 9.5 is not really gonna see any problems in the campaign.

    I actually got ambushed by 4 vampires doomstack and still win with this army. You just need to split like you’re playing Terran in StarCraft and use the unit that’s not pinned to melt vampires units blobbing around some of your units. My version have a lot more grudge settler irondrakes tho. The thing about having only 28 units is that enemies infantry will almost always form a blob when engaging in melee with irondrakes and unlike weapons team, irondrakes have a lot of armor and melee defense they can actually hold the lines very long. The damage output is also very high even when half your army is pinned and you are still able to wipe the first army and setup before second army comes in.
