Mommy needs cult of Slaanesh mechanics and a daemon recruitment building and Malaketh is also no stranger to summoning daemons either, including N'akari. Could make something work with that maybe.
"Anything Helebron can do Morathi can do better" Yes, that is kind of their entire dynamic in lore. Morathi dunks on Helebron all the time and Helebron hates Morathi so so much.
Malus needs his quest in game. Collecting the artifacts, a dillema that forces you to rebond no matter what and then ultimate unstoppable power.
Mods that fix this btw:
Malekith: True Phoenix King Campaign, Malekith Ulthuan dilemma + Forced Confederation, Witch King Decrees
Morathi: Morathi can seduce units, Cult of Pleasure mechanics for Morathi
Lokhir: Vampire Coast features for Lokhir Fellheart
Malus (fix): Tzarkan Whispers Revamped
Rakarth (bonus): Rakarth Bigger Monster Pen for WH3
Hellebron: Idk, maybe Mixu LL and Legendary Characters so you can get Shadowblade and confederate Tullaris?
Edit: Also, Victory Conditions Overhaul
If you got Mixu's LL and the 33 skills mods, Tullaris doen't get the 33 skills so ends u worse than normally recruited lords :(
@@sieglindeeilserv8799 just use tullaris as hero instead
edit: actually, there's a 33 skills submod for mixu LLs? "Ash's 33 skills - Mixu Legendary Lords addon"
The Situation with Rakarth is kinda sad. Esp if you consider how much more fun he was in WH2 when he started in Albion and you could raid all over the empire and Norsca from there whilst you prepare to attack Ulthuan.
Literally there's almost no reason to play anyone other than Mommyrathi. Faction effects give her free slaves and control, as a lord she destroys everything with cheap pit of shades and soul stealer and her starting position is perfect for a dark elf, because of starting province having 4 cities, a port and low lvl economy boosting landmark, because she is in the middle between all dark elves factions and can easily access others through sea lanes and because she starts near Ulthuan and every Dark Elf wants to invade Ulthuan
Lokhir is pretty good in vanilla
Hellebron suffers from being in the Queen and the Crone, a DLC I personally consider under-rated in that neither of the new factions were so overpowered they required several patches of nerfs later. Had it come out later there's a good chance that she'd be closer to Taurox or Skarbrand levels of destruction. As for in battle I am still amazed CA hasn't had a Dark Elf LL play with Murderous Mastery. It would be a great way to make a LL stand out without simply buffing certain specific units (usually released in that DLC, regardless of lore).
I had a lot of fun with Lokir Fellheart’s campaign by building the worlds greatest armada to sea lane and absolutely screw over mazdamundi. But yeah they could use some spice.
They should just copy what SFO does and give every faction a unique mechanic and function, if a team can do it for free then a company of developers should be able to do it with fat stacks for a game and every dlc
Given who Grombrindal is hinted at being during Endtimes, Malekith and Grombrindal being BFFs is surprisingly fitting.
DE are my favourite race in lore, and I've played through several of their campaigns, but I just can't bring myself to go back to them because the victory conditions are HORRIBLE. "Wipe out multiple strong factions on the other side of the world to where you start" - I just can't start another campaign where 95% of what I do is not contributing to my actual objectives.
(Oh, and their tech tree is awful).
Crone Hellebron was one of the first Immortal Empires campaigns I played. It was so hard, with so many enemies coming after me, but it was a fun campaign. I played it literally as "Khornate Dark Elves", meaning all armies of witch elves, which gain massive buffs, and you get a ton of slaves from her faction buffs.
It was a great campaign, until I conquered Ulthuan. After that, it was clear that the campaign was focused on fighting High Elves and it just lost its appeal, so I didn't do a full map completion BUT I do remember having fun with it.
Now I'm playing a Lokhir campaign and this feels like "how Dark Elves should feel by default", raiding and conquering foreing lands. It has been such an easy campaign to play as well, allying with evil factions and smashing good ones, I never knew Black Ark Corsairs (Handbows) were so OP, but man they are. The only "bad "thing is that the long campaign objective is conquering Ulthuan which is literally on the opposite part of the world, and everyone in the middle wants to fight me, BEFORE I get there. But man, it is fun!
It's funny cause in ET lore, Hellebron did eventually fight for Khorne's favour when she betrayed the Elves and sided with Be'lakor
@@kriegaone3658 I did not know this! I need to know why or how, is there a book with this, I can get? She does come across as very "Khornate like", wanting to kill more and more for the sake of it (even if she has her vanity as centerpiece).
@@maesde Actually nevermind I was wrong about the Khorne's favour thing, but yeah she did betray the Elves and form a temporary alliance with Be'lakor to destroy the Oak of Ages. Book is Warhammer End Times Archaon.
Edit: Actually later on she is part of Archaon's horde in Middenheim with some Khornates?
@@kriegaone3658 Aaah I really need to read the End Times series. Thank you!!!
Malekith needs a phoenix king mechanic, whereas he progresses, he is slowly but surely becoming the phoenix king of all Elves, and he should then get access to all Dark Elves, and some (ONLY SOME) High Elf and Wood Elf Units. Like, He shouldn't get access to Woodkin, or Zoats, but he should get access to the Loathers Sea-guards. He should also confederate Allarielle into his faction, because she is the Everqueen, and Malekith is now Phoenix King, so they should get Married.
Morathi just needs a Cult of Pleasure mechanic, which allows her access to Slaaneshi Daemons. I don't know if she makes rituals to summon them, or if she can simply recruit them, but she should get access to unique Darkelf-Slaanesh hybrid units.
(She should also get her model updated, but that's not neccessary, I just don't find her in-game model hot)
Crone is fine, her model could get better, and I would like for her to have a rivalry machanic between her, Morathi and Allariel, as she hates both of them.
Malus if fine, I like his machanic,
As for the other two, The Kraken guy needs a mechanic that improves his ship (Maybe like make him have army abilities on shores, as a way to show his Dark Arcs fight with him on battle, and he should get bonuses on sea's), and the Monster Guy should have access to more monsters, and maybe a throt-like machanic that could make his monsters more powerful.
All the darkelf's miss is the Kaine-character lord, and a few legendary heroes after that.
Being Phoenix King Malekith deffinetly should get Phoenix Guard and white lions of Chrace, but you don`t really need them in DElf army.
@@bezyn2291 Phoenix Guard, Swordmasters, Lothern, Dragon Princes, Sisters, Star Dragons, tied to % based chance of them turning up in RoR pool per turn with Star Dragons / Sisters having lowest chance, allow them to benefit from Murderous Prowess and respective Dark Elf tech for unit type (Phoenix Guard - Black Guard, Swordmasters - Executioners, Lothern - Darkshards/Spearmen, Dragon Princes - Cold One Dread Knights, Sisters - Shades, Star Dragons - Black Dragons), give them a unit cap or army wide cap.
@@kriegaone3658 Personally I would do province by province, conquer Lothern - get Lothern sea guard, conquer Hoeth - get Swodmasters etc.
I like confederating Malus but his stupid corruption he puts off that makes your own army's take damage is a feels bad and a game breaker...I dont think this happens to Morathi it should be similar.
Lore wise it makes sense cause Morathi's faction are Slaanesh worshippers, Malus' faction/followers are not. If other Dark Elves (barring Malekith in Warhammer TW lore) knew about Tz'arkan he would be dead.
@@kriegaone3658 Well its still kind of unfun
