Warhammer II - Legendary 20 Turns Guide - Malekith 

I fully agree. I'm not good enough to play on legendary but I like his videos, so it would be nice to get some out of them too.

Go for the dreaded "Malekith the bitch-king" build. Malekith and 19 death hags.

@@alexpeti5513 10-12 death hags gud enough you need casters and artillery for maximum efficiency.

@@alexpeti5513 gotta love t3 building giving death hags and of course the nasty malicious trait stacking.

@@datuputi777 yeah but that ain't no bitch-king build! Just kidding mate, usually go for Malekith, 1 death hag, 8 black guard, 8 shades and 2 dragons/hydras

we call them minimum wage workers now

The Grandmaster "I don't like that word."

I always make sure to hire the superior version of wizards, Grand Wizards. To complement all my slaves.

"Mainly doing it for the slaves, slaves are goooood." 17:55

@@bogdanleshenko7149 that's a good idea, I don't know why I didn't think of that, thank you

Still true today

Move just inside Manfred's province, raise dead his skeletons leave the zombies, come back across and raise your own dead. Manfred will move north to attack the other vampires. Next turn you dow Manfred and assault/take his capital. Finish up Manfred. Ignore your territory to the left as securing the main vampire counts starting province is higher priority. Once you have the two main vamp provinces you can push into the empire. Also beeline for the free skeleton tech.

You can either take manny out or befriend him and take on stirland, Manfred is gonna lose his army sooner or later and then you can confederate. I prefer the later cos ai builds cities really fast and you get a buffer zone from the dwarfs.

Marcello Morales thanks for pointing this out. Ima try that now

Maybe that's been changed since?

@@mackmasters325 nope did it just yesterday, you need to stand a little bit more left than legend in this case

But you wouldn't have movement to sack and then occupy like he did.

@@rafaelb.m.4756 good point

I just started a campaign for Fellheart and found it easier then any other Dark Elf faction

@@dillonhillery8173 It's till chaos invasion hits and your first one on the chopping block but I reckon skilled players would be strong enough to beat them at that point.

@@dillonhillery8173 Seriously. He's got dirt cheap Corsairs that carve through everything in the early game (especially Skaven, your biggest annoyance because of corruption), a black ark, a gold mine and buffs to slave pens for even MORE money potential.

Since when was Nakai hard?

In legendary campaign they don't attack early when they didn't get prod by the rats. They'll definitely be a pain the longer you wait it's certainty. Just remember their there waiting to pounce.

@@datuputi777 i just started mine. they sent me a non agression pact on turn 2. should i kill them? im on turn 11 and at nagaroth

@@creativedegree They have no one else to fight but you eventually thus defaulting that they'll fight you eventually. heh

Single shot for towers would be best i think. Use multi shot for troops

Like, all Legends Chaos campaigns are 20 turn guides.

@@ericmyrs He has played pretty much each faction so based on what you say all the guides are pointless

@@pooriariahi2909 that's not what I am saying at all. I am saying that a Chaos one would be pointless. Because the tactics he uses are easy to pull off, and repeatable.

Same lol

Not a 20 turns guide but for all Skaven lords, sack and raid to get enough food so you can settle a conquered settlement at tier 3, build the Plagueclaw Catapults building and recruit anywhere from 4-6 catapults, demolish the building after to get some cash back. Gor-rok can't do shit to you once you've got those machines of death in your army.

Rush Necrofex Colossus. Nothing can stop you after that

@@johnmcmanus2447 Sound's hideously boring.

@@barnebyoconnell8176 Oh it's Not! I'm turn 163 and have Noc and 19 Necrofex... Plus another stack of necrofex, plus 3 stacks of normal stuff... 2 more attacks and Ulthuan is mine!

Tyrion is probably the easiest one, you just have to get an 11-14 stack and as soon as you have that, attack Angerial and then rush the other two settlements in the Eataine province in order to unify it. As soon as you have that and a 20 stack, Yvresse will be invading followed by Cothique. Take care of their stacks and keep working your way to Tor Yvresse. Once Yvresse is gone then it's smooth sailing. Bonus tip, defensive alliance with Avelorn, the sooner the better. They will attack every elf faction and conquer them, leaving you to develop Eataine and Yvresse, two of the most rich provinces on Ulthuan. Plus, once public order has stabilised, probably no one will invade so you can take Tyrion and visit Malekith's mommy. As far as your early game army goes, disband the silver helms and the chariot after you fend off the first Yvresse army and just use 8 archers, your noble and the rest of the army should be spearmen. When Lothern is at level 3 recruit a mage and a couple of bolt throwers and you're good to go for the next 50 turns or so. Good luck!

@@alexpeti5513 Thank you so much for the detailed explanation Alex! I'll definitely give that go as soon as I finish my Hard Mode Thorgrim ME campaign. What traits would you recommend for Lords (Punitive? Ardent? Dragon Willed?), Loremasters (Fecund?), Mages (Entrepreneur?), Noble (Conscientious? Frugal?)? Thanks in advance!

@@ChrisBZ86 Ardent and efficient are my favorites in order to save money on upkeep but sometimes I find a trait that interests me and build an army around that trait. Entrepreneur and Administrator are the best for mages. If you farm influence with nobles you can afford to spend 40 on an administrator mage and have her run around Ulthuan and save you money and time on upgrading buildings, plus leave some Entrepreneur mages on Lothern or Tor Anroc in order to boost your income substantially. For Nobles I like Emolient, Conscientious, Resilient, Frugal and Honed. Don't really use Loremasters a whole lot but I think Medic is the way to go. I'm happy to help you with more tips for mortal empires or the vortex campaign if you like, just ask! Good luck on your Thorgrim campaign, it's a fun one!

I just noticed in my first post I said Angerial. What I meant was Tower of Lysean, Angerial should be the second settlement you attack, although I think they changed the map and you can no longer cross into Angerial from Tower of Lysean. In that case, Angerial should be your first target and then capturing/colonising the Shrine of Asuryan.

Have exactly the same issue, so what I like to do is attack them first, right after I take care of the rats and the rebellion. Hag Graef usually accepts peace after trying to siege Naggarond. So I take Malekith and sack/occupy both the Mung settlements and then let them rebel and get razed by the chaos stack. Imo they're not worth having early, too much corruption and PO problems there. Usually Har Ganeth occupies them and builds them up so I have them at tier 5 and 3 respectively after confederating them. They're a nuisance to keep early. Malekith with the fire sorceress, 8 darkshards and 10 dreadspears is more than enough to beat 1 mung stack and the garrison or even 2 stacks if you cheese and corner camp!

get dominating sword of khaine asap

@@mackmasters325 make legend prove himself wrong :D

BATTLE TIME IS FEEDING TIME ! Waaahhhrrrhhh

Old guide, games been greatly patched.

On ME, Clar Karond owns Hag Graef. They're usually one of my early targets after Mung, and the Exiles of Nehek, of course

probably in older versions thats how it was

Also, I did stay back to recruit in the first turn and could still just reach the settlement in turn 2. I guess this guide is severely outdated.
