    The fact you "ACCIDENTALLY" Nuked the Capital of the only strong faction you weren't at war with, and THEN proceeded to betray your only long-term ally right when literally everyone else in the world was gunning for your head Is honestly Just Peak Skaven.

    Fun fact: in Warhammer Fantasy, the Skaven pretty much outnumber every single other race, combined. They have a continent-spanning Underempire that has settlements underneath almost every single other aboveground faction's towns and cities. The average human is usually no more than a few hundred feet away from a Skaven. Usually *many* Skaven.

      And the even more funny thing is that a regular skaven (read clanrat) is not weaker than a human and is way more agile so they can actually take on a human warrior in a 1v1 and come out on top its just they are incredibly cowardly so they prefer 20-1 odds

    imagine being the pirates, your faction slowly building its way up the power ranks as you manage to befriend the Skaven. They actually end up helping you slightly, but they mostly ignore you and your requests for them to assist you in wars. Then when the endgame crisis happens, you're fighting on multiple fronts to stay alive. All of a sudden your Skaven allies approach you, for no real reason as they're also being attacked in their own territories. Are they here for assistance? supplies? You and your crew ask them what they need, and all of a sudden they gun you down for no reason, then all of them begin cheering over your slowly bleeding out body over a "short-campaign victory" as they put it.

So I focused him and Alariel and let the flying units bug out super hard. Only had a garrison of slaves on that settlement at the time.

    Morghur's missile resistance is really, really high. Actually the highest base missile resistance in the game, starting at 75 % and improving to 85 % with a basic trait available to him at level 2. But given the fact that he's starting the game next to Ikit Claw that's probably fair 😅

    • @beastwarsFTW
      @beastwarsFTW Рік тому +1

      Morghur is a straight up hard counter to Clan Skryre. He can outlast all missile units, even with unlimited ammo and he damages enemy leadership fear which a major problem for most skaven units.
