I have 1 tank, 1 anti large mortar and 2 hellstorms, what am I doing wrong ? I have found myself in situations where everyone but Gelt and a tank were wiped out. I had to micro them so hard to win against a few groups of infantry, a lord and a hero
@Sheckie Shabang you really think he just gilded the palace? Dorn being Dorn and the big E being obsessed with gold I feel rather confident in saying that the palace was made entirely of pure gold. Big E most likely made it invincible through sheer force of ego
Imagine being a centuries-old Vampire Lord, master of the Dark Arts, dedicating your black necromantic magics to resurrecting powerful Wights, who are not only master swordsmen but also intelligent enough to think on their own, only to watch them get bisected by the hundreds from a few errant cannon shots from a Napoleon-era cannon manned by Ernst, who pushed the damn thing all the way from Nuln to Essen.
"I love the smell of Hellstorm rockets in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn’t find one of ’em, not one stinkin' Green Skin. The smell, you know that black powder smell, the whole hill. Smelled like victory." - Balthasar Gelt
Especially orcs since they rely on their high af combat stats, watching them drop like flies and watching the damage values go up by the hundreds brings a tear to my eye
Everyone Else: "You can't just field fifteen stacks of Helstorm Rocket Batteries!" Balthasar Gelt: "YoU cAn'T jUSt FieLd fIFteEn sTACks oF HelStORm ROckeT BaTTerIEs."
Remember kids, if the Greater demon doesn't refuse to ever leave the depths of warp again due to how badly shellshocked he is, you didn't shell him enough.
Seriously one of the best things about WHFB that AoS lacks. The humans are just normal everyday grunts, but even Chosen Knights of Nurgle explode when you shoot them in the face with a 50 caliber ball of lead. The Gods tried to enslave mankind, but then Dwarves had to go and invent gunpowder lmao
@@nekrataali This is the reason real-life warrior classes went out of fashion. Sure, you could train someone from when they're 5 years old, give them the best armor, teach them the most lethal tactics using the most lethal weapons... But i can just go grab 100 illiterate peasants and give them rifles. Even of the chances of you getting hit is 1% that still means one of those damn peasants will kill you. Why waste decades on training when you can just arm the masses?
"Well, I made the trip and I'm finally here, in Estalia! Oh, what a postumous looking fellow, I do believe he is approaching me, my what a lovely looking mask. I wonder if he's here to welcome me?"
Warriors of chaos: "We are the chosen warriors of the gods, gifted with powers beyond reality, supported by unholy monstrosities, lead by the one prophesized to bring the end of the world, you can't just defeat us with long ranged weaponry.... Gelt: " Ha-ha, artillery go pew-pew"
Boris Todbringer, Valmir fon Raukov and Teoderic Gausser: We command the greatest provinces of the Empire! Ulric The Wolf Father is with us, and we are his most dedicated champions! Nothing can stop our armies! "Distant sound of hellstorm rockets launching" Boris, Valmir and Teoderic: CONFEDERATION WITH EMPIRE! ACCEPT! ACCEPT!
Karl Franz: "Balthazar do you see all these enemies that surround us?" Big G: "Yes my Emperor." Karl Franz: "I do not wish to." Big G: "Understood my Emperor."
Archaon: I am the Everchosen, the man prophesised to bring this world to ruin *looks up and sees a thousand rockets heading straight for him* shit... Gelt: *Manaical laughter in the distance*
Vampires? Fire fixes corruption. Norsca? Fire clears out any erotic werewolf RP sessions. Skaven? Fire cures rat people from being rat people. Orcs? Fire is the perfect counter to the Green Tide. Chaos? Fight fire with more fire. Gelt has the solution to everything, and that is why he is supreme.
In other words, if something annoys you, fire. Then put on yer glasses like daddy supreme Gelt and watch everything in fire, while givin badass speeches about Mors Garden and him not being an orator and something about eldritch artifact and shit. And fire.
"You goddamn chaos heathen, you had best sound off that you love Sigmar, or I'm gonna stomp your guts out! Now you DO love Sigmar, don't you?" - Gelt probably
This! This is why I play Empire and it is why Empire is one of my favorite factions to play as. However, you need more guns in your armies. Guns of the Empire is an awesome mod that adds more gun units. Nothing better than having artillery missiles fly over head towards an approaching enemy army while they are being shot at with hundreds of bullets. Brings a manly tear out of my eye due to how beautiful it is. Many of the gun units are also decent infantry units as well if the enemy even gets that close.
Captain: "General, we can't get the Kong out of their rat holes." General: "Welcome to Estalia, gentlemen. Bury them in their tunnels and raze their fortresses!"
1:48 Helstorm Rocket Battery Engineer: By Sigmar, I think we just killed a bunch of civilians with that barrage! Balthasar Gelt: Civilians are soldiers that didn't enlist. Helstorm Rocket Battery Engineer: Yes sir! Firing another volley!
i was recently looking back in the videos i watched about Warhammer and i found this masterpiece again this is what got me in to total war Warhamer and i dont regret a single hour of this amazing game
I love how most of the gelt videos i have seen they use paranoid by black sabath, it honestly feels like the community agreed that paranoid is balthasar gelt’s theme and honestly i agree.
