I've seen the Empire fall before I even got to fight them because Skaeling killed them first.
Because they have all the resources of the united Norscan tribes, they're much more useful and will go absolutely ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ on the rest of the map. Shoot for a military alliance with them as soon as possible. Instead, just go ham on whatever faction is nearest that they're at war with to build diplomatic relations.
Don't try to subjugate the winner, usually Wulfrik. I would recommend instead killing all the norscan tribes except whichever one is winning the most. They're literally starting with nothing and it takes them forever to rebuild. The awakened tribes aren't particularly useful because you have to destroy them to awaken them. Also invest in the increased growth in the blue tree. You have to be bold and constantly fight, usually take the growth from cities unless you need the money. I don't know how you're facing down halberdiers by the time you get Chosen, I usually have Chosen by turn 20-25. Shortly after that you get access to Chosen, which are the single best infantry in the game. Once you have Chaos Warriors the game is cake because you're pumping out armored units before anyone has access to armor piercing. The strategy to rush chosen is basically recruiting maraduers until you have a 20 stack, then destroy the marauder chain so you can build the chosen chain much, much earlier. But upgrading a chain doesn't cost extra, it's a flat 1 or 2 growth.
I just wish there were options for balanced army comps earlier in the game.įor newer players who don't understand hordes, basically every new "chain" you build costs 2 more growth. That said, I did some goofy challenge streams where I only made the marauder tree and I was still very successful on legendary. It means you spend the first 100 turns with nothing but infantry because rushing Chosen is the best strategy. It incentivizes you to quickly max one type of unit instead of having a balanced army. The only mechanic that is outright poorly designed is the horde growth and building progression. Based on more legendary campaigns than I like to admit:
