@bibby659 11 месяцев назад

I feel like he purposely put the doomstack in this scenario since every other doomstack had been tested by it fighting what its generally good at fighting. But never against something it could actually lose against. In a way, this seems like an attempt to break the norm and way of determining the rating of doomstacks. Could also be a situation where they forgot to test in legendary difficulty.

@alecshockowitz8385 11 месяцев назад

I feel like it was a MAJOR mistake in this combat to not be splitting up your monsters more. In melee, Kislev doesn't do all that great of damage. Having the initial army shooting you in the back forever I think was a bad move, and works against your mortis engine effect. Grouping to take advantage of healing is nice, but not taking damage to begin with is better. I think this unit would be superb in groups of about 3.

@Revan_002 11 месяцев назад

It’s too bad Ostankya doesn’t have pann’s impenetrable pelt. This army really could’ve used the melee defense, speed and physical resist. Since they have so much killing power already, using spells to improve their damage seems largely wasted. Legend knew it would be a tough battle from the get go because they are so squishy.

Really disappointed with Ostankya, her campaign is just all over the place. She's in Naggarond, has ambusher units (kislev is not an ambush-y faction), she can inhabit forests (???) with no penalty, if you invade a forest you end up at war with the ordertide unless you colonize an unclaimed one, she has a theme for Beastial units, but only has 1 actual wendigo unit even though it was advertized they would have a roster of them, the actual incarnate units are just melee cygors with passive flock. Ostankya is a missile chariot, making her hard to control in melee so you just skirt around the enemy for the entire battle. It's really boring after the first few battles. In my campaign i packed up and left, went to Albion, by the time i got to the motherland, Kislev, Empire, and Brettonia had been killed by demons, vampires, and rats. Turn 70 and every single order faction in the Old World was deleted.

That might work if you got those enemies there so that all of them would be in the woods, but here I think that forest strip is so small that getting the enemy there in blob would be hard, and they'd just shoot you still, and you have to face them all in full power and missiles he blocked at the start shooting at you too, not easy to pick those off, even while being in the forest. But if you'd run along the forest, fighting in one corner and then relocating to another to heal and kill the fast units, that might work. Then just wait for them, kill some on the way there and rinse and repeat. Would like to try that. There's just always the ticking timebomb of self damaging flock of dooms, as Legend stated, so you still need to fight quite early.
