    I totally agree that they should add Middenland as FLC with playable Boris, Teutogen Guard, Sons of Ulric or something like that. 2-3 unique units could be enough for such small, FLC faction.

    The main problem of the Empire has always been the reliance on armour in a game where armour is pretty useless. Greatswords, Empire Knights, Reiksguard and Steam Tanks are all balanced around their very high armour stat, but every other unit has AP and even those that don't can still deal serious damage to them.

    • @ElvenPlotArmour

      Having a master engineer provide up to +10 armour would be nice.
      I'm confident having better aura buffs would help them do what they need. Infantry have come a long way and you really feel having to hold back the enemy using T3 troops.

    I really like your choices for Legendary Lords, Heros and generic lords. I think that Empire roster is highly underpowered in the infantry department. They need a middle level swordsman with 80-90 Armor, 35-40 Melee Defense and 35 weapon strength with 21/14 split. I think that they also need higher level halberdier with 90 armor, 10/22 WS + 20 anti-large bonus

      Swordsman unit: Reiksguard Foot. Pretty much exactly what it says in the name, armed with sword and shield. Was the elite Empire infantry unit until 6E, when they essentially merged them with Greatswords to make the heavily armoured Greatswords we've been used to since.
      Halberdier: One could argue that the Teutogen Guard could be themed to fit, although they'd probably be more likely to be general-purpose great weapon infantry. I think there are some knightly orders that typically use a halberd-like weapon when on foot according to the fluff as well.

      Sounds good- both units would preserve Greatswords as the ultimate Empire infantry unit and add significant utility to Empire infantry- better line- holding and elite anti-large unit. This would make Empire roster significantly more balanced, as their infantry and cavalry are already excellent. You could add a Gruphon or Demigryphs as monsters, but these would be far less urgent additions.

      @Draxynnic 9 месяцев назад +1

      @@ElvenPlotArmour Not necessarily - Foot Reiks would probably take over the pure 'hold the line' role, but if balanced appropriately Greatswords might still be the better option if expecting to fight lots of heavily armoured infantry, especially if the enemy is relatively light on missiles. You could have a 'triangle' of anti-infantry, anti-large, and heavily armoured tarpit.

    Would you consider doing a deep dive, tier list, and faction guide for the Warriors of chaos? They have one of the largest unit rosters and some complex considerations on the campaign map for lords and heroes, at least for the four undivided factions.

    • @ElvenPlotArmour

      At this stage I'm thinking of tackling the monogod factions first, then the warriors, then all. I do my best to pride myself in only providing top tier strategies and unless I feel fresh and dangerous with a faction I opt not to make content. I have a peeve of creators giving bad/detrimental advice so I hold myself to that standard. Sorry it's a long journey, but it's ultimately an honest one with quality takes at the end of it. Hope to see you at the other end :)

      I think the answer is the Empire having auras and abilities which power up their units to become powerful. Dwarfs have a great race that plays very well, but they need more flexibility to the Rune System. Being able to apply more runes to units and characters would give the depth they need.
      At this time, the Dwarfs, I'd say are stronger than the Empire.

    • @ElvenPlotArmour
      @ElvenPlotArmour  9 месяцев назад

      I essentially agree with both of you. The counts do fall too quickly on the border, but the doomtide do need to naturally take some land and create an area of struggle on the map. I'm ok with Hochland falling to Festus and the eastern territories struggling, but they could really use Marius in Averland to check Vlad. Empire's problem is it's a faction that can't just 'field units'. They need characters to elevate them in smart formations, which the AI doesn't do, so the basic electors are simply fodder to the chaos factions that start near them. They more just need to slow the advance of Vlad and allow them to check the northern threats more steadily. If you could unite the Empire by turn 30 easily it'd likely get dull after that.

      state troops never had a 'medium' armor type. They always came with Light armor and sometimes shields. halberds are no where near Silverin guard in terms of ability. The 'Counter charge mechanic' was known as detachments, and wouldn't work in tww as it's too complicated to apply. Detachments allowed two smaller units to hang out with a big parent unit and offer some bonuses in combat situations. Reiksguard were never on foot in 8th edition, always mounted.

    The problem with Empire in WH2( because I don't own WH3) was purely the AI
    AI Empire was completely a different beast than Player Empire
    In almost all of my campaigns, the AI empire was the absolute menace on the map and too hard to counter because of the sheer size and amount of armies they could field
    Most of the time in higher difficulty you were against 3-4 armies of the empire at once
    But when this empire was under the player's control it was nothing absolutely nothing
    What I am afraid of is giving the empire new buffs without the balance between the AI and the player, which will bring another power creep into the game
    Though I never played WH3 and am not familiar with the state of the campaign to see how the AI empire fares against the new challenges but i still fear that the AI start destroying anything and everything again just like how it was doing in WH2

    • @ElvenPlotArmour
      @ElvenPlotArmour  9 месяцев назад +1

      A very logical breakdown of potential impacts, but as you mentioned, it is in the context of WH2. WH3 has the Changeling and Festus starting literally in the Empire's centre, along with Skragg the Slaughterer who can gain momentum and attack from the south. The Empire needs work to eliminate its threats internally before it can simply confederate and project outward which was the case in WH2. My estimation is the AI empire didn't confedeate using the Elector Count system, but a simplified version of it that worked more like traditional confeds - meaning the AI Empire doesn't get slowed by the key mechanic and snowballs at a rapid rate.

    I really hope that the Empire gets an interesting missing legendary lord from army book in this DLC. I can imagine Kurt Helborg will be DLC legendary lord for Thrones of Decay. After all, If we will ever get Marius Leitdorf, he make more sense as FLC legendary lord.
    I really doubt we will get random nobody like Elspeth von Draken from secondary source. She is a terrible choice for DLC. Unlike some people, I've noticed that Balthasar Gelt is already in the game. Elspeth von Draken will be really just clone of Balthasar Gelt with generic dragon mount. Elspeth is not Elector Countess of the Wissenland or something like this. Each legendary lord in Shadows of Change have own separate story. Most likely, this will be same for Thrones of Decay. I doubt Empire really need own version of Helman Ghorst that doesn't add anything new to the game.
    If CA will really choice random nobody like Elspeth von Draken instead of real missing character from Empire's army book, I will skip this DLC. I don't care about Nurgle at all. It make no sense to buy this DLC for 25 eur for single Dwarfs legendary lord.

    • @ElvenPlotArmour
      @ElvenPlotArmour  9 месяцев назад +1

      While she's a side character I personally think she's a good choice. Gunpowder themed DLC is going to rub many Empire players the right way (including me). Sure, she's another flying caster lord, but if she starts in Nuln (please!) it will really power up the Empire and cement them in their western position. I think Kurt will be the legendary Hero, though there were others mentioned here that I'd personally rather, I think Kurt is who the FLC will be. As for Nurgle, it'll be interesting what they do. I actually found Tzeench's DLC made that faction very enjoyable compared to earlier so I'll reserve judgement there!

      We have no guarantee that Thrones of Decay won't be the last DLC for the Empire. If the Empire gets only one new playable legendary lord (besides the fully playable Toddy), it should be Kurt Helborg. He makes no sense as a legendary hero. He led armies in the lore. He is a perfect candidate for an interesting Empire campaign somewhere on an expedition. I hope Kurt doesn't fall victim to CA's trend of randomly adding characters as legendary heroes.
      Honestly, I'd rather see a main character in Thrones of Decay DLC for Empire than another Helman Ghorst level character from secondary book. It's funny that some people want Elspeth for a Gunpowder-themed DLC. Just look into the Tamurkhan: The Throne of Chaos book; you can find a much more interesting character for this role - Jubal Falk. A unique Master Engineer LL would add more to the game than a boring copy of Balthasar Gelt.
      If Empire will get another DLC after Thrones of Decay, Jubal Falk can be good choice but main character from army book shoud come before him.
