@HH-hd7nd Месяц назад

Th knights have a unique role in the Empire roster: The other units are pretty much all shock or skirmish cavalry. This is melee cavalry which can actually survive in prolonged combat.

@deathtrooper7760 Месяц назад

If you have the chapter house of the knights on tier 4 they get a great buff. A skill that prevents that models die until you are beneath 50% of there health pool. Combine that with the fact they are heavy melee cavalry build for direct combat. You could combine them with shock cavalry to soften up the fronline first, then throw the black rose knights in to bind them in combat while you use your shock cavalry for attacking there back for an hammer and anvil strategy.

In regards to the Knights of Morr that you brought up, they’re technically already in game as elector troops. And while I would love for them to be changed to a proper unit, I wouldn’t want it to take up a spot for something actually new in a paid dlc. Just like as much as I want Toddy to be upgraded to a proper starting LL I will never pay for him if they try to get us to.

@johnj.spurgin7037 Месяц назад

I kinda want an eventual faith-focused DLC to just change the various knightly orders into a troop unlocked by T4-5 of their signature settlement. Knights of Morr don't feel right as a Sylvania unlock.

@Noblesix84 Месяц назад

Ive seen other folks talk about the Knghts and I think theyve filled the role other point to which is dedicated melee cav, the type that you charge into weaker infantry and keep them there for a bit to help hold the line, rather than shock/charging cav that the empire already has a fair amount of

@guitarhausdoesntknowwhatac3285 Месяц назад

My Take on the knights of morr is that They're really good for either messing with infantry charges or just trying up your opponents backline/flanks for a really, really long time owing to the fact that they have a huge defense rating combined with immune to psychology, which gives them a really useful niche in an army who'se melee options are generally craptacular.

@sagittariusa9012 Месяц назад

9:09 I tested the Helblaster Volley Guns in the past and one thing i did see was that they often focus the same models. Which means 1 Gun is attacking a unit model and shortly later another gun is shooting at the same model, which most of the time misses because the model is already dead because of the first gun. I guess that is why the Steam Tank version isn't far behind damage wise. They also do that in your Video.

@thomasprice7893 Месяц назад

"The Landship is tier 4, I was expecting it to be tier 5 like the Steam Tank" The literal lore reason for the landship's existence is that it's easier to manufacture than a Steam Tank

@Mikalent 4 дня назад

One thing I will say that puts the landship a bit above the Steam tank, the landship's ammo only counts for the forward facing cannons, the repeater gunners have unlimited ammo, just as the Steam tank's turret has unlimited ammo. So once the Steam tank exhausts it's ammo, the landship is able to continue doing more damaged, as the main cannons on it are really there as an anti-large option.

@IainDoherty51 Месяц назад

The Nuln Ironsides being a smaller unit with a similar fire rate can be useful when it comes to getting them the clear lines of fire needed for gunpowder units. And the Hochland Long Rifles have one major advantage... they start with stalk and snipe, so they can and will be able to shoot from a long way off without being detected, which will straight up win them a lot of engagements with other missile troops, and will allow for some really nasty ambushes or flanking manoeuvres against enemy forces

@playwars3037 Месяц назад

I was about to comment that the ironsides would burn through ammo faster than handgunners, and that was their downside, but no, they have almost 50% more ammo to compensate. They really are just a straight up upgrade. I...I'm not sure how feel about that honestly. I like having direct fire unit that can be a frontline, like the infernal guard with fireglaives, but the blunderbusses had their own advantages to compensate, notably their batshit insane damage output.

@Digitward Месяц назад

They have 60 models so their damage output is actually worse. They are a more expensive downgrade for 40 armor. Reload speed has a hard cap due to animations and can be increased through chevrons, so at highest tier for both units, handgunners outdamage them

@dragonslayer2107 Месяц назад

Frankly I’m glad The Empire doesn’t have a magical generic lord. It makes it feel like magic isn’t a wholly respectable and trusted aspect of The Empire- which it isn’t- and it makes Gelt and Elspeth that much more special. The Empire General and Huntsman General definitely need a buff, though.

@user-rr8iy6mv5f Месяц назад

Exactly. Empire are not elves or lisardmen. Magic is still kinda historically new to them, so there's a lot of untrust and superstitions about the mages. Having a battle wizard or few in an army? - Sure, as long as there's witch hunter close by. Having a mage leading an entire army? - Unless they're an exceptional figure with a lot of personal power and influence the answer is no, cause they're just won't be trusted.

The ironsides seem to be barely better than the regular hand gunners once you take into account the unit numbers(about a 37% increase overall) Not even taking into account the ten second wait for their passive to kick in to get to that point. But even from a visual point of view their volleys look weak and unsatisfying. Compare that while for every 2 volleys the ironsides let off, the handgunners 1 (while doing less damage overall) does damage to a unit in a larger chunk than the ironside's faster chipping away. The armor and and melee attack are too low to mean jack shit.

@josephtucker8456 Месяц назад

Empire Generals are still superb duelists once they get their big bird and can deal with enemy lords and heroes very easily, especially those small single entities that guns tend to have trouble with if they're mixed in the melee. Arch Lectors and Huntsmen Generals are kind of lacking a niche though... Huntsmen Generals at least make for good leaders of crap stacks.

Not gonna lie, I was hoping the longrifles would have came with Stalk at least. I mean it's fine it's just they're gonna get picked apart by artillery and Crane/Jezzails before getting into range.

Mistake spotted, long rifles - they have snipe ability, but they forgott to give them stalk..... snipe does not make sense without stalk

I really don't know which campaign I'm going to run first, this DLC is looking great. I assume it'll be as overpriced as the last, but it's looking to be just as high quality at least.

@libertylemonz7145 Месяц назад

I think it should be said that in campaign, the Nuln settlement that Elspeth starts in has a landmark which gives the Knights of the Black Rose immunity to death until the whole unit is under 50% hp. Which is I think the only real use-case for them.

@zacharyjackson1829 Месяц назад

i wouldnt say it's the only use-case. they are the only cav that empire has that can really sit in melee to deal with infantry without need of cycle charging and given empire cav has a habit of getting stuck in crowds preventing cycle charging anyway these guys are gonna be the better option. of course you' eventually have demigryphs but those take longer to recruit and arent always necessary.
