What I did notice is your revivification unit is only getting 1 kill. Whilst it can be used for healing, it is great for charging in to melee, same as any of the dino units with abilities. Lizardmen have decent ranged and melee options. The only place I ferl they are a bit weaker is flying mobs. They are still fine, just not as good as the orher two options. Gor Rok also becomes pretty much unkillabke later on, once he gets his regen. You literally gather a bunch of mobs around him and Kroak blows them up. He is decent at hero killing, too, but suffers from not getting a mount at any point. For mounted heroes, skink heros are awesome and OP once they get their final . The Skaven siege battles are really not bad. You can take in Gor Rok solo, the stand Kroak outside and nuke stuff. Zero need for the army, but you can bring down the revivification crystal in case he needs a heal. The army can just chill out of range.
Loot and Occupy can be good as you get the settlement plus bonuses. The trade off is the "locals" don't like you and will eventually rebel when public order hits -100 in a few turns if left alone (they raise a small army that fights you). That's not necessarily a bad thing though, if your forces aren't currently weak, or needing to head off to other fronts soon. You can quell (defeat) the new enemy army, which gives your army XP (nice early on for faster leveling provided you dont take heavy losses or damage that causes you to rest for several turns) Granted, the developers toned down Public Order and rebellions in part 3, so they are less likely to happen or have as big an impact as they did when WH 1 & 2 were out. I'd say, as part of your learning and experimenting, mess with the different options on each settlement.
The problem I see is that if you are playing 7 to 10 turns, you will not really pick up the mechanics as you will not have experience most of the units, just the trash units at the start. Additionally, starting campaigns for some factions can be rough, and then change to overpowered later. Tehenhuain is a prime example of this. The start is ok for him having to deal with Skrolk, Rakark, and the Tomb Kings, but by the time you get to 15-20, confederations are in full flow, you have a full-scale war between all skaven and all lizardmen, and you are discovering how excessively useful chameleon skinks are.... everywhere. You also probably won't have got to see the broken sacrifice for followers/banners, resulting in the possibility of 0 construction costs and a stupidly high income. Oxyotl is similar. Does not initially look good. Stupidly OP later on. Gor Rok is very very good, just not as good as the previous two I mentioned. Personally 20-25 turns would give you a better chance to experience mire mechanics of the faction.
@toofelhoont2866 I mean, the early atuff is still nice to know, and I get why you are doing it, but you are going to come away with the wrong impression of some factions/lords.

Lord Croak is no joke... his spells were insane, and that's at a crazy early game.

@malthusoth thanks for that insight and you're right, I should just experiment and see what happens!
Turn your Pyrrhic Victory into Decisive Victory with this one simple trick!
@ryanadams1334 LOL so true!

Okay, so even by learning the base mechanics, the game shifts enough as things go on that things are not as they appear? Good to know, thank you!!

@@pklemming Okay, I appreciate that, now I know to expect potential changes through a playthrough!!
