I've lost quite a bunch of AFK-rounds due to filthy enemies confederating the round before attrition. | ||

Yeah, I always have at least one siege weapon embedded in my army, so I basically never lay siege to cities. Most of the time there's nothing there but the garrison anyway, so I just auto-resolve the battle and move on. | ||

I see, a polish masochist  I find the MP not very fun at all while playing matchmaking. Atthe beginning I had some fun building countercheese armies, but overall the lord sniping is a bit tedious. Playing it with friends is super fun though. | ||

I think having 1 or 2 in the army is pretty good. Unless you are fighting trash only I'm not sure if more is better. I don't think that they let you skip sieges. They definitely beat Vargeister in every way imaginable though. Sieges in general are really stupid and really could use a rework. It doesn't make any sense to wait for siege equipment in the first place if it's so bad that you pretty much never use it since everyone can just climb up walls or attack the gate without moving at 50% speed. Also it takes so long that I've done it like three times in roughly three campaigns. | ||

They wreck most things (they can even tackle steam tanks) and cause terror. It's also nice that you can get them out relatively early (T3) and in the campaign Templehof has a special building that lets you get them at vet 3 instantly. | ||

It is funny how stupid ridiculous the Vampire Lords are, though, My level 2 Lord with nothing but Hunger and Nehek outdueled a level 16 barbarian lord even with half his army helping. | ||

I think the biggest issue with the game is that lords and agents of a variety of types are too strong. I'd like to see everything nerf'd across the board. Early in my VH Vampire counts campaign I had Manfred and Varghulf and 2 skeleton units beat a full stack of empire troops. | ||

Not surprised, the ai levels heroes in the most braindead way possible. If the rest of his army doesn't have armor pierce and is low tech they deal practically no damage because only like 6 of them can attack at the same time. Means he's almost fighting a 1v1 against a barbarian, with nehek being reportedly pretty broken. Unless the chaos brings chosen or giants or sth. Maybe marauder with great weapons. I agree to agents and lords being too strong in the game. I'm okay with high level lords being wrecking machines, but lvl 1 non-magician lords can 1v2 most low tier stack without problems. | ||
