Reikscaptain Playing as the Empire, have at least 10 Reiksguard units in a single army. Forged in Hell Have at least 10 Chaos Knights in a single army. This is Troll Country Have at least 10 Trolls or 10 Chaos Trolls in a single army. Its all the same feel without the massive potential losses in the campaign. Herald of Famine, Undeath & War Playing as the Vampire Counts, recruit a Black Coach to one of your armies. Go practice in the custom battles before committing to the campaign combat. Then just bring a couple cannons to ruin any monster's day due to its anti-large ordnance.ĭo realize this strategy isn't perfect and what makes one truly good at Total War combat is literally just practice. Instead, grab a bunch of Hammerers for that Anti-armor against Chaos Warriors/Chosen, as well as a few Thunderers to punch through their armor from a distance to soften them up. While Slayers are 'supposed' to be the counter to monstrous creatures, my personal experiences have noted that they aren't worth the massive investment to get them. Make sure to have one of the gyrocopters engage the artillery crew in melee as this disrupts the crew and forces them off the artillery so they cannot continue to fire, then proceed to ruin their day with bullets and bombs from above.Īs for Chaos soldiers, it depends on if they are fielding a variety of monsters or normal soldiers. This is especially potent against Chaos due to their lack of ranged units, which are the only things that can target flying units while they are airborn. A nifty way to deal with enemy artillery as the Dwarves is to grab a couple Gyrocopter units (copter, bomber, whatever type) and rushing them over enemy lines to harrass the artillery.
