      Oh yeah, let's make the dude with poor depth perception the driver of our boss's chariot. What could possibly go wrong.
      Then again the Eye of Morrslieb RoR is functionally blind so I guess there's a pattern here.

      I might want it to be the _other_ eye, at least, so that we'd have a functioning _pair_ between the two of us, but I guess that's just not how beastie boys roll.

      @Glenn Krenz The AI cheats in ANY strategy game worth its salt, to some degree or other. It just simply needs to in order to be on par with the player, unless you want the devs to develop some super ai that will slow down any but the most expensive machines and bleed developer resources. Civilization, Starcraft, Europa Universalis, Crusader Kings even fucking age of empires the AI uses cheats because they cannot simply compete with the supreme power of the human brain. If they had no cheats they would pose no challenge at all, which wouldnt be any fun.

    • @milkandcookiesTW
      @milkandcookiesTW  3 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      i...really dont know what to say to that haha. there are hundreds of examples on my channel of entire regiments going flying from a cav charge. Generally the criticism goes the complete opposite way, that some people think it looks comical and silly to see units fly so far when cav hits home. That particular example you gave certainly qualifies as limp, but not really sure how they're "limp and pathetic" overall. If anything they trend more towards ridiculous and over the top

    • @subatomicseal7789
      @subatomicseal7789 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think Warhammer 2's charges have higher highs than previous games, but also lower lows. Could be worse; at least they actually charge, instead of how cavalry in M2 charge until they're about 10 feet away from the enemy, slow down, pull out their swords, and just kinda walk into the archers they should've decimated.

    • @milkandcookiesTW
      @milkandcookiesTW  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      to be fair it is possible the recent mass changes have made the crazy flying impacts much less likely for cav. if thats the case i havent noticed it yet, but ill keep an eye out going forward. but even if thats true, its a recent development, certainly not been true for the majority of Warhammers life cycle. Games like Rome 2 have way worse looking cav impacts imo, even when compared to the "low end" for Warhammer

      @ricardosoto5750 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    • @KevinMacku
      @KevinMacku 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's obvious by your comment you don't play games other than Warhammer 2, and maybe M2 I guess. 3K and Troy both have cav charges with more verisimilitude. Now, maybe that's because they're not dealing with things like monstrous cav, but regardless, the point isn't what's making the problem, but that there is one.
      I hate using cav in W2. It's pretty pointless. Maybe in multiplayer it has a function but certainly nowhere in campaign.

      @spellbound1875 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Asymmetric balance my friend. Rangers have very solid defensive stats for their price so against balanced or defensive units they trade really efficiently. Against an all out offensive unit they get run over and their lower damage doesn't cut it. Though infantry may have had their charge unintentionally buffed in the last patch so high charge infantry may just be overperforming this patch.

    • @milkandcookiesTW
      @milkandcookiesTW  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      High Elves shouldnt have cheap offensive infantry that can outtrade Beastmen anyway. Them being the same price point doesn't matter, different factions pay different prices for units depending on what their strengths and weaknesses are. HE have plenty that Beastmen do not, and vice versa. Regardless, Rangers are basically an auto include vs. Beastmen and Skaven, and tend to perform decently in both matchups
