fair enough but you could still make this army in Nurgle, the only difference would be the lord and Hammerstorm(Daemon prince of Nurgle replaces Festus and a cultist of Nurgle on Warshrine would arguably be better than Harald for the army)
Man Everytime i attempt to do a doom stack i just always think to myself half way through, "damn why am i doing this when i could just make the best doomstack in the game and just play malus" then i just start a malus playthrough lol
@@heartpaid6767 Malus has gotten a new neighbour in Epidemius that he can kill or befriend early on. He can also now acquire nemesis crown alongside sword of Khaine which will make him even stronger and almost unkillable killing machine.
@@pzatotalwar oh yeah, nemesis crown, I forgot about that! How does Epidemius make him stronger though, Im a little bit confused Is he very useful as an ally? Or when you defeat him?
@@heartpaid6767 major factions are usually stronger allies or could be stronger enemies(compared to minor factions) which will mean more money and experience when you defeat them, in early game that is huge. In this case Epidimus is daemons of chaos(Nurgle) faction and Malus faction could have a huge positive diplomatic relations with DOC if he is at maxiumum possession so that’s why you could now ally him and Daniel very easily to have a secure eastern border so you can fully focus on the west or you could kill them early on as I said before.
1 great unclean lord 1 mage of death 2 chariot heroes 1 cultist of nurgle 1 regilent of renown cavalry 2 flyng nurgle fleas that shiot 8 exalted unotes 2 chosen of nurgle and 1 slot eich u can put whatever u want. Simply unbeatable
festus's doomstack is him and 19 chaos gaints. that is sooo much stronger and easier to get than this chosen army, it's more powerful and doesn't lose entities. after the battle is won you can just heal them all with festus even when you have no winds left.
Isn’t chaos giant a gifted unit?(haven’t played Festus faction specificity recently, so I don’t remember) unless you are planning on starting as Be’lakor and then force confederating Festus, you can only have certain number of gifted units in any given army(4-6 units)
@@pzatotalwar no chaos giants are not gifted units, they are basic units recruited from mountains regions or if your build the building in your darkfortresses you can get them by chance in that region.
Oh fair enough, they are definitely a solid option, the only problem being their big a*s size and slow speed is gonna make them an easy target for cannon and missile based armies.
@@rubric-eo5yj even with 50 resistance they are too big and slow that if they get focused fire they will still go down very fast. They hit like tank but their speed always let them down. Honestly I’m willing to test the doomstack if someone sends it in.
chosen of khorne might be stronger because they will get gorefeast, wardsave, hellblade and can have a base weapon strength of more than 110 and similar meele defense
Yeah but the physical resistance, the nurgle debuffs, the healing spells and everything combined makes chosen of nurgle much more durable than chosen of khorne
they don't have ap and would lose to nugle chosen wit great weapons. also they have falling attack which is not a good thing to have now due to so many fire resistance across many races.
@@houlinfan7835 but you can increase their ws and ap ws through tech tree buffs also you can make them have more than 100 leadership essentially making them unbreakable which means that you won't loose frenzy
bro thi fat green guys i such a nemisis for me in empire campaings jesus. late game with stronger and fairer ai he recruits so good armies with giants 60 % shot resistance. Good luck killing it
You have to try to kill Festus as soon as possible, so you wont allow him to get stronger and also get higher tier units cause that's gonna make things a lot more complicated.
I think melee infantry doomstacks are the weakest doomstack archytype. If you can make them as powerfull as possible, they can take all the infantry, monsters, cavalry and missiles enemy throws at you. But if enemy uses magic, they can kill a ton. If enemy uses artillery, you must send your lord or heroes to kill them, or they will kill a lot of your super elite infantry. So what I am saying is that melee infantry doomstack has autowin only when fighting against factions that doesn't have either magic or artillery...leaving only Khorn....
Aspiring champions want to have a word with you! But seriously though you are definitely correct regarding infantry Doomstack are relatively the weakest ones since there are so many different stuff that can hurt them badly!
What's your favourite Nurgle Doomstack?
I mean nurgling spam with kugath is always fun
fun, easy to build and use
SHORT KING?! That goes in the book!
Buddy I'm already in the book, last couple of videos all of have been against the dwarfs(except maybe one, lol)
@@pzatotalwar Haha, maybe you can make it up when TOD comes out :)
@@ArchD. I might be able to do it a little bit sooner 😉
This is a WoC doomstack friend

Sorry for the mistypes but my phone ha TH-cam comments bugged. If I type too much I can't see the words lol
I agree these balanced armies are more reliable as they perform better in more situations.

I admit i expected you were gonna showcase a new nurgle unit..
Very soon Bro, very soon
chosen of khorne might be stronger because they will get gorefeast, wardsave, hellblade and can have a base weapon strength of more than 110 and similar meele defense
also they get increased spell resistance
If someone send in the chosen of Khorne doomstack I will definitely check it out

Why is hammerstorm in this army? I mean flaming attacs wont do much against dwarves
prob for extra 6 melee def and 15 armor
Does he provide other buffs?
@@CH-ml4rz sort of, provides big buffs against Undead
Yes, a minor yet useful buff for the chosens
Omg, how much faith, steel, and gunpowder would it take to stop this army?
ALL OF IT, BRING EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE!
10 outriders with grenades should suffice
thats not the strongest Nurgle Doomstack Hero stack is.
That's fair, they probably would beat tf out of these guys.
Or the soulgrinder stack
Doomstacks ruin the game smh
It’s not for everyone, having thematic armies sometimes make the game more fun on the long run.
@@pzatotalwar Agreed!
