Love your videos. They have really helped me in utilizing my units better.
Thanks, because my whole inspiration for making them was having wished I had this kind of help for certain units when I was learning new factions. Glad it helps others.
Ogres were my first ever battle on the table top. I had the good fortune of befriending a man that had ALL the armies so we could all play whatever army we wanted without the investment. I did buy him some new models when they came out and a laser level to put a line on the table to check line of sight.
Very cool!
9:36 that’s why we get the mod that adds the all the lores ogres get access to in the lore at least until ca adds it themselves
That's what, Heaven and Death not just Beasts and Maw?
@@OffToBattle yessir I can finally use the only spell I know how, spirit leech
@@doomfistmain5515 Well I can attest to feeling the dire lack of it in my campaigns. We kicked the deadbeat Slaans out of the Star Chambers, so maybe CA can give us our rightful Ogre lores too!
There's three things I want to emphasize about Skrag in this comment. First, Skrag has underway Stan e giving him big mobility. Two, going heavy slaughtermaster and rushing the blue line is very good for getting to THE tech that makes your late game, Sky Titan Plateaus which gives you +1 Camp capacity for every lvl 5 camp. Three, when done correctly, Skrag's start is super easy giving you all of the border princes and tilea to muck around in while you get your first camp up. Just don't miss off the dawn right away and you're golden.
I'll try and convey this to others when I get around to the campaign videos I wanted to make to wrap up dealing with the faction in 5.1 - and yeah, underway stance really must help given the neighborhood he starts in.
Skrag doesn't have underway, unless you are playing with the great ogrehaul mod, in which case he does. But using a mod to judge him is probably not the best idea.
@@aidenchilds5478 Ahh got it, I have heard of the mod. And I greatly applaud people putting pressure on CA to deliver. Thanks!
@@aidenchilds5478 oh shit really? didnt know that, my b. thanks for the correction bruv.
He's still a fast lil guy tho
Yeah, it's Skrag. He does cooking pot things.
Spreading the joy?
@@OffToBattle Well, his friends seem to like it, at least! They're starved!
He is a good, functional lord, but not as cool as Greasus. Maybe I am biased. Immunity to contact effects is nice- makes him a good choice against Nurgle, I guess.
That immunity is personal, and applies to Slaughtermasters, I think Butchers too, but it's still convenient. And yeah I find Greasus more quirky and amusing personally.
Im gonna be honest, the only experience ive had with skrag is mowing him down with amythest armory cheats with elspeth. Honestly having artillery advantage against a primarily melee focused army whilst besieging them so they never leave their city is kinda busted
Understandable. AI Elspeth seems not to use her stuff properly... I've seen Skrag sitting on Nuln more than once playing as Franz. Player-run Skrag would have the wall shattering ability on a 45 second perpetual cooldown against proper walls though... that and Gorgers with Stalk running, well, backcapping becomes a way of life.
@@OffToBattle Who needs capping or even stepping inside the city when artillery can bust down the walls and guns can shoot through the gaps? For some reason, even on very hard difficulty it seems the ai can’t leave their stronghold during a siege battle, so when I attack them when they outnumber me 2 to 1 in balance of power it’s as easy as shooting fish in a barrel to win
@@phailupe2941 Ahh, gotcha. I've won TWW2 sieges similarly with enough arcing weapons back in the day, like Vampire Coast using Queen Bess against Teclis faction archers on a 90 degree wall corner...
“The Maw Feasts” is probably the worst use of a single skill point in the game. The Ogre DLC/rework can’t come soon enough.
Skrag can really use it, absolutely! Though he has very decent power despite all that.
@@OffToBattle Definitely. Ogre Lords/Heroes don't need a big overhaul, just some touching up QoL changes to make them up to snuff in comparison to other races. Like removing/changing all the useless and duplicate stuff they have.
@@Ett.Gammalt.Bergtroll I agree so I hope Ogres get just that, like Empire had for its heroes.
No he sucks, horrible, horrible lord.
Ignore the fact as Elspeth I spent 10 turns hunting him down for his defeat trait to only be killed by my tier 2 settle garrison. That doesn't affect my opinion of him at all.
Heh.
