I watch Turn and HeirofCarthage alot but im starting to love your videos. i love how youre more lore oriented and you include that into your videos along with multiplayer gameplay, great videos man! keep it up!
I'm new to Total War, Warhammer Fantasy AND this channel. But this channel was what got me into the other two. I love the commentary and the lore stuff you go into. It's super fun. Great stuff, man.
Great battle, everytime I see Cold Ones I'm sad though, reminds me of Warhammer Online (I played a Disciple of Khaine) I hope to see a Warhammer MMO again one day.
I'm the same way about cavalry. I love cavalry. Heavy cavalry charges arouse me. Reading about the Battle of Vienna in 1683 and the Polish Heavy Hussar charge into the Turks, the largest cavalry charge in the history of warfare, makes me harder than Slaanesh after Death Night. 18,000 Polish and German knights crushed those Turkish clowns. The Polish king, Jan Sobieski, led a 3k man strong regiment of his Winged Hussars himself. Yeah. I love cavalry too.
When a mounted hero is pinned in a complete circle by infantry spears and pikes, the fact that he is stun-locked and unable to escape is a feature not a bug AFAIC. This is how Hollywood heroes die in a tragic blaze of glory.
Hey Dahv, hope you read this my guy. You both played a fantastic game. Awesome strats, neither one really did anything wrong, just a case of waiting until you can get things right, you know? Waiting for those reaper bolt throwers to get tired out for him, and for you, waiting for them to take the cav out. It all hinged on that cavalry for him, his sole tactic. But regardless! Fantastic game gents. Very well done. Thank you both for that kick ass brawl. Dahv, I've subbed to you.
Elf Wars Episode ?: The Revenge of Darth Teclis The Warhammer world is in turmoil. With the rise of the crone Hellabroken, it seems there is no hope for the Asur- that is, until a certain elf-mage goes mad and turns to the power of the dark side. Lord Darth Teclis, though he may be frail, is strong with the force- summoning his bodyguards, the Fireborn, and kindling their lances with doomfire, the Darth Lord of Ulthuan destroys the resident sith lord, Darth Malekith, claiming his title and turning him to a s#!t lord in the process. Together with his apprentice, Darth Anar the Shadow-Sith, the recent claimer of the widowmaker, the Sith Emperor Teclis unleashes his campaign against the crone in full force. The time for peace is over. Summoning forth the dark side, he releases it in a blast of chain lightning, knowing that if there's one thing capable of defeating the crone, it's UNLIMITED POWEEEEERRRR!
Great game... in the late game - you should have positioned your dragon princes on the far side of the hill, away from the reaper bolt throwers. Loved the net + convocation combo from Teclis :-) \m/
I think the Vermintide patch had a fix where they have the rats spread out more or stand around or something instead of just crushing around and it makes the hordes last longer and it makes it real cool
what do you think about sisters of slaughter i don't think they'll be a competitive pick executioners for 100 more are a lot more resistant to damage while having a lot more straight up killing power compared to their more grindy style
Those bolt throwers seemed to be missing so many of their shots, in both firing modes. Maybe they were doing damage, and I just couldn't tell because the models themselves weren't reacting.
One day, when I can afford it, I'm going to buy a great pc and play this game. It looks so fun and it's my favorite franchise ever. Warhammer. Shadow warriors rule 🤟
I still rarely see people stack a cheap spear unit on artillery crew, which can pretty much guarantee the artillery will survive for a long time. Any meatshield will do, zombies, spearmen, peasant mob, etc, just an extra bit of money to let your artillery really get its money worth
Hey Indypride, given that a DoW faction (or something similar to it) could be coming soon are you planning on doing a theory video on what the army would look like and how they would play.
One thing, I notice that alastar appears in my alith anar campaign. Does that mean that if u complete har ganeth, averlorn or nagarythe campaign we´ll get him or it´s just a random thing?
nah hes been in the game since launch, hes not an unlockable starting lord. only way to get him is by confederating or recruiting him after a campaign start
I do wonder, is there like a discord channel dedicated to these kind of battles or do you have firends just always ready to do stuff like this? I am kind of looking for a discord server with a roleplaying aspect in warhammer II.
Losing the executioner early like that really cost him the game, Cold Ones are too expensive to be effective though, better using more dreadspears and using light cav to block the Dragon Prince, DE cav sux balls.
Fate of bjuna will destroy the ror dragon princes, just wait for them to engage, do a fate of bjuna and then even the crappy DE cav can kill them. They nerfed lore of life so much that now fate of bjuna is just a kill for expensive units
fate of bjuna has been like that since launch, lore of life and regrowth has never been able to efficiently counter it unless you INSTANTLY cast it as fate of bjuna hits. you lose models too quickly. this is why a lot of people are refusing to use Bjuna now, its just a stupid, unfun spell
Tyrion might have been a better pick there over Teclis. Regardless, good charging - cavalry mans wet dream. Those Dragon Princes payed for themselves and more.
Not directly. However, Bonus versus Large is distributed between regular and AP damage at the same ratio as the unit's base Weapon Strength. Against large units, the Fireborn get +13 regular and +5 AP damage.
What predwin said. The AP component of an attack always ignores armour mitigation. The rest of the damage is reduced by a randomly rolled percentage between half and 100% of the armour value. As an example, if an Empire Swordsman successfully hits a Chaos Warrior, his Weapon Strength's AP component of 7 will always be dealt. The remaining 21 is reduced by an average of 75%, but it could be reduced by as little as half, or by as much as 100%. So unless other modifiers apply (charge bonus, fatigue, and resistances mostly) the Swordsman's 'real' damage against a 100 armour enemy is going to be between 7 and 17, with an average of about 12. There might be a minimum of 1 damage after armour mitigation (I can't recall), in which case the minimum damage here would be 8.
Alex Pheysey And an additional fact on armour in TWW: It appears that armour reduces the non AP damage by a random percentage anywhere between the armor score and half of it. So with 100 armor, it's reduced by anywhere between 100 to 50% (although the damage can't be reduced below 1).
It's their nobility. Each High Elf "province" is actually a kingdom in it's own right. Any "Princes" would basically be the male nobles of Caledor itself.
*snigger* You sure you're not a traitor to Ulthuan? Cause you certainly seem to be conflating killing and sex a lot. Otherwise, very good, very close game and interesting focus on cavalry and archers.
From the land of Chrace come the whit lions, mighty warriors that under perform for their cost. And like them from Caledor the fireborn do so! At 1900 cost with bonus vs large and fire damage this mighty elfs lose to demigryps (1400?) Bloodknights (1700) and grail knights (1500) Glory to the pricy incompetence. CA fix stupid things thak you :)
"one of the best cav regiment on the planet" XD ... demi griff halleberds, bloods knights, chaos lancer, and ofc GRAIL KNIGHTS are either way more cost effective or wayyyy more powerful in their respective roles. Dragon prince cost an eye, can't handle to be left alone if passed their " high hp stat bonus", doesn't have unlimited vigor, doesn't have ANY bonus vs inf or large, doesn't hit the hardest and doesn't even have the 3rd best charge bonus in the game ...so NO! Dragon princes are a money black hole and if you know and love hvy cav you shouldn't take them ... and seriously...for real....what kind dimwit 2min+ strat game experienced noob bring fire lore vs elves ? In what kind of troll matchup are you gonna use the fire rez ? Even the empire solar knights does pretty much the same as ror dragon prince yet cost less. Do you realize that for the same cost you could bring a freaking dragon and rekt enemy cav/heroes/hvy inf alike ? With dragon princes as soon as they have anti large def you can put them in a corner and wait ...
you are objectively wrong about Dragon Princes. there's no point even arguing about it lol. they are frequently taken in competitive tournaments by the best players on the planet. nobody brought lore of fire this game. cool rant though
Exciting and very close game with Dahvplays, you can check out his channel here - th-cam.com/channels/6CLkxOWW-TxdGM9yVTyDfQ.htmlvideos
That Dragon Price Charge vs SOS Charge shot was too good
Butt charge with that flaming cav was just pure movie moment! great vid as always
I watch Turn and HeirofCarthage alot but im starting to love your videos. i love how youre more lore oriented and you include that into your videos along with multiplayer gameplay, great videos man! keep it up!
My goodness! That Fireborne charge was insane! Both them and Scions of Mathlann together creating perfection.
Liking this shit up because of that hammer and anvil. UNNF!
Indypride, I don't say this enough.
I enjoy your videos immensely. Thank you so much!
I'm new to Total War, Warhammer Fantasy AND this channel. But this channel was what got me into the other two. I love the commentary and the lore stuff you go into. It's super fun. Great stuff, man.
thanks mate really appreciate it :D
Good video, showcasing units, action and tactics as always. Keep it up bud.
thanks mate will do :)
Love your battles replays. You're a very good commentator, indypride. Big like
Great battle, everytime I see Cold Ones I'm sad though, reminds me of Warhammer Online (I played a Disciple of Khaine) I hope to see a Warhammer MMO again one day.
Remy yeah
Well there is still that private server
GasparSall is that server still going strong? Because I’m thinking of hitting it up.
Check out return of reckoning, fans essentially made the entire game using the existing stuff
Great video. I like your style of reporting on these battles.
been loving your videos for a few months now man, keep it up :D
thanks mate will do :D
I'm the same way about cavalry. I love cavalry. Heavy cavalry charges arouse me.

The Polish king, Jan Sobieski, led a 3k man strong regiment of his Winged Hussars himself.
Yeah. I love cavalry too.
Well I have something for you to arouse to : "French cavalry"
When a mounted hero is pinned in a complete circle by infantry spears and pikes, the fact that he is stun-locked and unable to escape is a feature not a bug AFAIC. This is how Hollywood heroes die in a tragic blaze of glory.
Man this is like a movie :D you have the best Warhammer video on youtube!
thanks mate glad you like them :)

This came up in my recommended, you tube algorithm win imo I get this awesome warhammer to watch, and you get a new sub.
welcome my friend!
Indypride, plz tell what is the song name you use at 4:49 i love it but can never find it or shazam it, if anyone could give me a direction plz
It's from tw warhammer 2 soundtrack, just find it in there
My gosh there were so many beautiful plays in there.
Great game... in the late game - you should have positioned your dragon princes on the far side of the hill, away from the reaper bolt throwers.
Loved the net + convocation combo from Teclis :-) \m/
That wasted doom bolt probably decided the entire battle. What a close and fantastic game.
The new channel banner looks very slick by the way!
thank you very glad you like it! a viewer named iAboLo6fa made it for me, looks gorgeous :)
I think the Vermintide patch had a fix where they have the rats spread out more or stand around or something instead of just crushing around and it makes the hordes last longer and it makes it real cool
your commentary is actually very good, gj
Wha beautiful charges. The Fireborn are now my favorite unit.
Great Intro as always.
that clutch spell combo 😏
The best thing about this DLC is the ROR hands down!
Wish the factions all had a sub faction ROR though that would be amazing!
what do you think about sisters of slaughter i don't think they'll be a competitive pick executioners for 100 more are a lot more resistant to damage while having a lot more straight up killing power compared to their more grindy style
What is difference between blades of the blood queen and harganeth executioners? Model wise and states wise.
DahvPlays always shows wins so we will not see this battle on his channel. Great win for u..very tight!
Few things more satisfying than a heavy cavalry charge
I'm lovin these videos!
your vids are epic man, nice job
thanks ray glad you like them :D
those dragon prices in red looks soo cool
Yo, I'm not gonna lie that Sister of Slaughter sliding under that Dragon Prince lance at 8:98 was sexy.
Beautiful.
This was sooooo GOOD!
glad you enjoyed :D
Those bolt throwers seemed to be missing so many of their shots, in both firing modes. Maybe they were doing damage, and I just couldn't tell because the models themselves weren't reacting.

Epic Battle!
Hey Indypride, given that a DoW faction (or something similar to it) could be coming soon are you planning on doing a theory video on what the army would look like and how they would play.
yeah we will cover them :)
08:55 Beautiful.
Thanks for the video 😁😁😁
Papa Bless
this is the best game i have seen in a long time
glad you enjoyed it jake :)
amazing use of magic!!
opening up a cold one with the boys
The shadow king look amazing but the fire born look much amazing.
Indiepride! Are you using a reskin??? Sorry if this is a stupid question....
Do you also show battle where dark elves win?
can you do a character army next time like you did for the goblin vs dwarf
One thing, I notice that alastar appears in my alith anar campaign. Does that mean that if u complete har ganeth, averlorn or nagarythe campaign we´ll get him or it´s just a random thing?
Zaxan hes just for campaing
nah hes been in the game since launch, hes not an unlockable starting lord. only way to get him is by confederating or recruiting him after a campaign start
Ok, thx
Is it just me, or do the Shadow Warriors look exactly like The Abyss Watchers from DS3 expect for the color scheme?
Please can you share which graphic mods are you using.My game is not looking as good as yours.You have more colors in it
no mods
I do wonder, is there like a discord channel dedicated to these kind of battles or do you have firends just always ready to do stuff like this? I am kind of looking for a discord server with a roleplaying aspect in warhammer II.
You make heavy cav op, great game!
glad you enjoyed!
I think the sisters of slaughter have a decent block chance cause's they're fast enough to see the shots coming and block them
Losing the executioner early like that really cost him the game, Cold Ones are too expensive to be effective though, better using more dreadspears and using light cav to block the Dragon Prince, DE cav sux balls.
Cold Ones(anti-large) destroy most of the enemy cav ( including DragonPrincess). They got armor piercing too.
that was siiiiiiiiiiick
Hey how do u zoom in without ghe units fading away
turn off proximity fading in graphics options
Fate of bjuna will destroy the ror dragon princes, just wait for them to engage, do a fate of bjuna and then even the crappy DE cav can kill them. They nerfed lore of life so much that now fate of bjuna is just a kill for expensive units
fate of bjuna has been like that since launch, lore of life and regrowth has never been able to efficiently counter it unless you INSTANTLY cast it as fate of bjuna hits. you lose models too quickly. this is why a lot of people are refusing to use Bjuna now, its just a stupid, unfun spell
Tyrion might have been a better pick there over Teclis. Regardless, good charging - cavalry mans wet dream. Those Dragon Princes payed for themselves and more.
To those who fly too close to the sun. You will become Fireborn.
Hold onto hope I'm homeward bound...
I see someone is a JT Music fan
Tiny shield giving 35% missile block but Swordmasters with centuries of training only get like 15%. CA PLS
Is there any AP bonus to the fireborn?
Not directly.
However, Bonus versus Large is distributed between regular and AP damage at the same ratio as the unit's base Weapon Strength. Against large units, the Fireborn get +13 regular and +5 AP damage.
Thanks. Does AP reduce the armour overall for that WP or does that WP bypass all the armour ?
Alex Pheysey The AP component of weapon strength completely bypasses the armour itself and has no impact on the remaining damage.
What predwin said. The AP component of an attack always ignores armour mitigation. The rest of the damage is reduced by a randomly rolled percentage between half and 100% of the armour value.
As an example, if an Empire Swordsman successfully hits a Chaos Warrior, his Weapon Strength's AP component of 7 will always be dealt. The remaining 21 is reduced by an average of 75%, but it could be reduced by as little as half, or by as much as 100%.

I'd take the High Elves a lot more seriously if they did not wear penis shaped helmets all the time.
I’m confused, like lore-wise how do the High Elves have so many princes to ride in entire cavalry formations?
It's their nobility. Each High Elf "province" is actually a kingdom in it's own right. Any "Princes" would basically be the male nobles of Caledor itself.
ARN ah, that makes more sense. Thanks
*snigger* You sure you're not a traitor to Ulthuan? Cause you certainly seem to be conflating killing and sex a lot.
Otherwise, very good, very close game and interesting focus on cavalry and archers.
Sisters of slaughter are op
From the land of Chrace come the whit lions, mighty warriors that under perform for their cost.
And like them from Caledor the fireborn do so! At 1900 cost with bonus vs large and fire damage this mighty elfs lose to demigryps (1400?) Bloodknights (1700) and grail knights (1500) Glory to the pricy incompetence. CA fix stupid things thak you :)
H G M they beat grail. knight's not sure about the reast
Darko Mihajlovski I will test it again but im pretty sure they dont and they cost 400 more...
H G M they just barley beat the normal ones i find it hard to believe they beat max chev up ones with anti large
oh so u did not check it! :D Belive in the UBERpriced high elfes man just belive ^^
Josh blood Knights were the worst high tier cav in the game but they got some ap and mass this patch so they should at least be decent now
"one of the best cav regiment on the planet" XD ... demi griff halleberds, bloods knights, chaos lancer, and ofc GRAIL KNIGHTS are either way more cost effective or wayyyy more powerful in their respective roles.
