1:42 That's a very Judo move there, using an opponent's strength's (hard mode means more enemies) against them (more enemies means Taurox kills more thus snowballs faster)
I believe you can even circumvent the unit limit they have by just saving and reloading the game. Have only 1 avaliable chariot unit? Just reload the game a bunch of times after queing the recruitment and boom, Doomstack.
Played this with a full stack of nurgle's stink. The final battle was Taurox running in and enemies shattering before they even got to attack him. Great fun, got a full stack by turn 60, would recommend tea/10.
Pretty much. To summarize, Taurox went on a rampage in Talabecland and killed so many people Khorne sent a daemon envoy to reach out to him. Taurox replied by eating the daemon and Khorne thought "This cow's pretty cool," so he turned his skin into brass. Taurox's only weak point is a gaping hole on his neck, kind of like his Achilles' heel.
@@bfufhryrrhtjhxbdgkjgutitjh7877 nah khorne has an obsession with brass. He sits upon a brass throne mad of skulls? So brass is his gold teir. And I'm pretty sure brass is actually stronger then gold in the real world
Forget the cygor summoning wand, the best item in the shop is the one that gives your hero drunken bravado. Meaning perfect vigour and regeneration. Very important for fighting dozens of fights a turn. I fought 8 battles with taurox on turn 4, and the best I managed was 18 battles in a single turn. Not quite the infinite battles Legend of Total War managed, but still pleasingly OP.
Nice to see one of the original features of the table top game has been incorporated, power creep. As what is the best way to get people to buy the new shiny? Make it cause everything that came before become redundant. Nice one GW you are remaking my teenage years in computer form.
14 turns? If you out cheese yourself and the enemy, it is entirely possible to raze the whole world by turn 5, and actually convenient to do it on turn 6.
Next time try Gor'Rok with Lord Kroak, if you just get a couple of defensive items/ward save for Gor'Rok you've already started the snowball :D I've had him take an Empire lvl5 settlement WITH a full stack army inside ALONE and not having lost a single HP. That was late game though lol and some spells from Kroak admittedly. But nothing else ever entered the settlement.
Hey, Spiff. Speaking of invincibility exploits, I found one after opening up Avorion, a space ship builder game. All you have to do is never complete the tutorial.
The start of this video reminded me. I can't remember you doing an oxygen not included infinite water from infinite crimes against humanity "exploit". If you're interested Francis John shows how to do it at the start of his "141 dupes challenge 7". And it's absolutely glorious and hilarious.
I hope that the Games Workshop realize Spiff's hard work with the Warhammer games, and create the BRITMARINES with a brand new Exploit the World dlc where the only resource is TEA! Because tea is worth much more than any material known to man. Keep up the good work, cheers from Hungary!
Spiff. You need to play Rome 2 as the britiania. They get the most OP units in the game. As an added bonus you can conquer the world for Tea. chariots. You just repeatedly click the chariots past the enemy and they run them over killing almost all of them. You can literally take over the whole world with them.
If you chain up enough battles in one turn 20-22 or so, you can actually get a never ending rampage as well. But yeah, even legendary difficulty is an absolute walk in the park for Taurox.
Personally I went with the 90 Melee Attack Minotaur / Chariot Army. I buffed the crap out of Taurox and gave him the Sword of Kain. Using all his augments at once would lead to him having ~1500 Weapon Strength, ~200 Melee Attack, ~150 Charge for around 30 seconds, which was more than enough to cause the enemy army to route once their lord got their head caved in.
Taurox in and of himself is practically invincible. He's like late game Archaeon, but you can horrifyingly mutilate people right at the start. Literally took on thirteen divisons of anti-large infantry on his own and won in my first playthrough with him. Had three ghorgons kill the rest while a legion of minotaurs with shields and then just the standard anti-infantry variant, a minotaur champion, then a bunch of razorgore chariots rounded out by a pair of jabberslythes. No fortress was safe because every single living unit was a battering ram.
Little known fact SpiffingBrit is Tzeentch (or possibly one of his disciples its hard to tell). Every game can be "influenced" to be to his liking with enough patience and poking about.
