GREENSKINS ARMY GUIDE! - Total War: Warhammer 

"Empire has the best artillery." *hears angry grumbles and scribbling in a certain Book*

Warhammer news: Army of trained and well equpied soldiers overrun by naked orcs.

Fundamental Orc tactic: charge screaming WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH! Alternative: charge, THEN scream WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH! Orcs have about as much tactical finesse as the cleavers they wield.

I tried playing orcs today. The first thing I noticed is that they literally never stop yelling

Don't forget that when you have goblin army be led by a goblin boss, and you level him up a bit, the buffs he gives gobbo units in his leadership tree is insane. You'll eventually end up with 60+ melee attack gobbos if i remember correctly.

Savage orcs are probably my fave orc units. The sheer amount of charge damage they do as infantry and that theyre practically naked with clubs is hilarious

Woah, woah, woah! You forgot to mention one VERY important part of the Greenskin army roster, if not the most important part! That's a grudgin(?)! Wurzzag dances when on foot. :)

Empire has the best artillery?!?! Khazukan Kazakit-ha! This insult is going into the book.

Been binge watching your channel since I discovered it last week, really entertaining videos. You deserve more attention.

That "Is it gone?!" in the end make me laugh xD Poor Zerkovich bullied by Grimgore

"Empire has the best artillery." *slaps plague-claw catapult* "Can make MANY-MANY elf-things dead, YES-YES!"

Lovely! Fyi, melee attack does not cap, but your chance to hit does. It is hit% = 40% + yourAttack - theirDefence Does not exceed 90%, and does not fall short of 10%. So more than 50 over you opponent's defence is excessive, but every point closer to 50 over is worth more, as 90 instead of 89 is more of an increase of damage output than 11 instead of 10.

Best part of this video was the Army Traits at the start, watching that small charging horde become a massive green tide that filled the entire screen. Now that's a WAAAAGH!

Oh for fuck's sake. When you said "Learn them, understand them, wield them" and faded out it went to an ad and I thought that was the end of the video, then I watched the Skaven one and thought, "Why didn't he go this in-depth for the Greenskins?" I looked back and saw the video is 35 minutes long. Nice.

I just wanted to say that I really love the pacing, style, and intonation on these videos. They are great to have on in the background while I harvest more skulls for the skull throne. Very relaxing.

I try field Goblin army....you be suprise how reckless people get vs goblins like put there lord in easy kill spots because they under estimate them (like in eps 1 of goblin slayer)

I don’t even play warhammer but I love listening to your in-depth analysis of each class and just hearing his knowledge on the subject

What a hell of an Intro man! Cant wait to see the rest of the video :D

"Is he gone? He better be gone. If he comes back, you're answering the door." lolwut?

Great intro mate. lol

I was just enjoying your videos but wasn't subbed then I got to this video and Grimgor threatened to beat me over the 'ead if i didn't so what was I supposed to say?

Your videos are great bro!! Me and my brother just started playing and your videos have helped us a lot!!

Gobbo themed armies are my favorite by far haha. So much fun to play the smelly underdogs. Also: squigs. They also have the best goon-squad in the game, if cheese is your fancy. *edit: in my opinion.* NGWB on a squig and two big bosses on spiders. Keep em together and you can run rampant in the enemy's army with that anti-infantry with no fear of their lord coming anywhere near them.

The gobbo archers seem to deal more damage faster to a whole unit but they lack the power to kill unit modals, so they will be bad vs any army with healing spells but the orc arr'a boys seems to do less damage in the same amount of time but can kill the unit modals with ease, then again it's 90 arrows from cheaper archers vs 45 orc fired arrows, tested this vs brit infantry low armour with/out sheilds and the foot squires

Fun to see your videos get better and better! Awesome guide!

That intro though, nicely done

Keep up this amazing content Zerk! High quality stuff

I wish they would add Grom the Paunch as a Lord Character for Greenskins. He hasn't been used physically in a long time by Games Workshop. The best we got was some new art of him in a book or two. He'd also be the only Greenskin Lord with a chariot.

I've pretty much been playing this on and off since launch and there are still details here new to me, great to see such useful information in an entertaining presentation. Since they buffed dwellers below I was struggling but the sneaky stealin' and lore of death work really well!

I absolutely love these videos dude I am shit at battles but watching your videos has helped me improve so much

Love this series, you give me the courage to play more. I am a painter of Warhammer miniatures and love the total war games but I am not very good, your videos helped me a lot, after seeing this one I want to play with the orcs haha. Love the channel hope we can play online sometimes haha.

I can't stop listening to Grimgore's intro. I've been listening to it over and over and over again. Send help.

Yes been waiting for this for so long.

Great guide, but you forgot that they changed the mechanics of the fanatics ability, it is now a manual ability; The ability is used to block infantry charges and decimate armoured infantry, if you can aim and time it correctly; The ability also shoots 3 loonies now. The eight peak loonies use dwarves instead of metal balls... also one of the best dwarf killer abilities in the game, for the gobbos at least.

thanks for this. i started my first real greenskin campaign the other day and it was throwing me with all the unit types. good point on unit size, i had looked at it and gone "yeah ok numbers for bad fighters" but i could spread my front wider and have fewer holding units. if i mix in poison to balance the odds it would allow of a very versatile army. im loving savage orks but, get them in the back or sides and watch the mess. the extra speeds amd attack really point them to it with the ward as an incase. thanks for the guide

love your work man keep it up

A 30 sec pro guide... this is literally the best video in the internet :O

Late to the game. Great guide! Very helpful! Thx! Cheers!

That Grimgor inspired intro was outstanding! So in character! =)

Thank you very much.. High quality as always... Could you maybe also make a video on how to manage agents? How many do you need? When to buy? How to use them (assassinate/ guard / block etc). Also how to deal with Corruption in late game campaigne... Thank you very much and keep up the good work!

This morning- " Today is black friday but i never go shopping anyway so who cares" Gets back from school and sees steam has a sale on- "....... YESSSSSSS I MUST BUY WARHAMMER I AND II AND EVERY DLC EVEN THOUGH I WONT USE MOST OF IT"

Great work as usual :)

OMG greatest intro ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!! z you the man

And again great format, great video. Norsca next ?

It's good to finally hear someone talk about the actual uses of some of the more niche units instead of everyone else just being like oh they're too expensive, or they're useless. Regardless of what faction it is.

love the vids Zerk! could you make a video on fighting the war mammoth? Alot of players dont seem to know how to hold them off and the only effective way ive found is arachnaroks so i wanna see what you have to say!

I don't even own this game (yet), but what an indepht/thorough and wonderful video. Thnx!

man amazing guide ! You deserve 2000k subscribers !

Awesome video!

Why did he change how he shows the roster? I liked seeing each unit up close

Just FYI, to hit caps at 50 attack above defenders defence. Also melee defence caps at 30 above attacker melee attack.

The whole video was excellent, but that intro was the best part and the follow up at the end lol

Great Video! Lover the puns :'D (Fits to the greenskin theme)

GRIMGOR IZ DA BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!! WAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

great guide!

Just wanted to say that the Savage Orc Boar Boys Big Uns do have the Bigger & Arder trait, so like the Big Uns they are effective against large units too, unless I am mistaken somehow

DA 'NTRO WAZ EPIX BOSS. DA 'UMIE WILL LIKE IZ. WAAAGH

That intro is on point

Love the channel!

That intro was 11/10.

Dude love the video's thnx for all the explanation

Finally! It's here!!

Important part of the guide ends at 0:31 All you need to know

I gave this video a like just for that opening....love it

its often good to pull out the units before they flee, espacially nasty stalkers and fanatics can disrupt the front line enough to fall back with the rest of the troops and wait for cooldowns to end and get moralized again. Although a weakness is that goblins will run away after the first time purely by being outnumbered so you have to gather and outnumber the enemie units again. this works fine tho because you can hide your focus with the stalk ability of many units. And dont forgett skarsniks ability to give stalk and 24%speed to anyone within 40m range, its fking awesome! Skarsnik is the most fun general ever.

Absolutely love your videos and guides! How long do you think until you do a norsca guide? I've been struggling a little.

Brilliant intro loved it.

excuse me did he say the puny humans had the best artillery?? by my beard i am disappointed.

awesome!

Gotta go with Grimgores advice here.

I know I’m late, but the best use for goblins is a fixing force. Put them at the front then great weapon orcs at a staggered placement behind them, making it easier to flank the force attacking the goblins. Then behind the great weapon units I have goblins again to push units attempting to attacking my flanking force from behind. The high melee defense should give the killing/fixing force enough time to eliminate the attacking unit, and then the process repeats.

Love your videos :) do you have any updated ones for the DLCs?

Wait a minute, you said the empire has the best artillery. What about the dwarves?!?

"Can be played without serious thought" SOLD

Squig herder was my first love in the WH universe during Warhammer Online AOR.

Are you going to make an updated one for the rework? Love the videos!

Showing armies through this menu is... an interesting choice. It's like 6 Windows put together, so it's really small and hard to read when it's full screen. That's a very pretty picture you have behind it taking up the majority of the image, but I can't even see the animations of these units on my phone.

Thanks!

I liked and subbed off the intro alone

Best army guides out there imo... Zerkovich ftw

When you test your builds how do you set up the ai army? I find if you auto generate an army they give you the weirdest combinations, tonnes of renown units and highly ranked up units rather than traditional front lines and balances unit builds

Thank You.

A Grimgor cameo. Nice :D

WAAAAAAAAGGGGH!!!!!

Best intro ever.

loved the intro

Top Orking ! *Thumbs up*

Hey Zerk...since all the updates over the years, have you thought about doing an updated version on the Greenskins?

I do like squigs, thanks for asking!

The Hammer of Gork pretty much summarizes the Goblin philosophy: - It only starts to make sense when you realize that friendly fire on a Gobbbo spearman unit is obviously completely intentional. ;)

That intro is legendary

that intro was perfect

Love the vids but I really must know how you get to see the 3D model in the custom battle screen. Thanks.

A few things to note that have changed since the patch or were left out: -If you want your Orc Warboss to deal more AP damage but cannot afford a Wyvern mount it is enough to mount him on a boar. This doesn´t make him a powerfull combattant though -All Wyvern mounts now have poisonous melee attacks which makes them more survivable in airborn duells against enemies like the empire general -Since Skullmuncha now always deals poison, Azhags spider banner would be pointless and got removed. Instead Azhag can now field magic scrolls -Azhag was given an ability that let´s him regenerate hitpoints over time constantly, I´m currently not sure if you need to purchase it in multiplayer or if it comes right off the pocket -Grimgor Ironhide has been given the Frenzy ability and more hitpoints plus he now does cause fear which makes it easier for him to rout enemies. While he is a great fighter you still should try to avoid engaging him against flying generals and give him a protective goonsquad to protect him from being divebombed

Coming from an inexperienced player, this was soooooo helpful! No more will the dwarves be bullying my nooby butt!

Sound da'horn for da boyz!! we goin' to WAAARRRRGHHH!!!

5:20 'orcs don't do well vs large units' Orc throwing himself upon the varghulf's back 'Respectfully... 'WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!'
