@candyman magma cannon is stupid op. Not great for sieges because it has a straight shot and doesn't do a ton of damage to walls or towers, but it absolutely destroyed any infantry, and it's super accurate since it's only got one model. Regularly outperforms the dreadquake for me just because of how reliable it is. The dreadquake has a higher damage ceiling but it often misses and has a much slower rate of fire so most field battles the magma cannon is gonna do better.
Funnily enough, it's actually shit. Slow recharge rate, horrible aim, subpar damage. It looks impressive here but he probably recruited a ton to make it somewhat work, and we are not seeing the damage they inflict!
@@mangaranwow2543 the skaven got way to much love already. Let them be or imma exterminate every single last rat like many times before again. Most unhealthy faction in the game and lore by far
‘Sir, the enemy have rolled 20 cannons up to our door’ ‘Very good son, assemble the whole city in the square for a briefing’ ‘Sir, shouldn’t ride out of the city? We have 20 horsemen with grenade launchers’ ‘GET TO THE SQUARE AND DEFEND YOUR CITY’ 5 minutes later THE EMPIRE HAS BEEN DESTROYED
The most impressive thing here is how the ai doesnt even try to dodge. When i focus on artillery the ai gaina a sixth sense and zombies somehow manage to predict ballistic trajectories from behind the walls and dodge all my shots/spells. I need to blob them with a lord to have them atand still (or cast Gaze of Fate when i play tzeentch).
They might be a chaos faction, but.. these are really pretty fireworks they brought to the empire. At least all those soldiers witnessed some cool looking special effects before getting exploded..!
Hey Willie, whats that sound? Oh that, its just the anguish and wailling of our comrades in arms, as they are blown to smitherines. Daang, should we do something? Welp for now the orders are just to move in their direction.
That is absolutely horrifying. I feel like if your faction faced oof against that, your upkeep would skyrocket. You’d have to pay your soldiers an assload to make them want to face that
The regiment poisoned wind mortars for the skaven were a one unit only power house of anti infantry...lets make more of them available and stronger in every way.
I had something similar not to long ago with my moulder campaign. I had a t3 settlement with a large garrison with no mage in the garrison. The Tsarina came along with a full stack army and attacked. I outnumbered her but since skaven garrisons are primarily tar pits with almost no killing power other than mages and towers. Since I was lacking a mage I instead relied on the towers. I pooled all my units in the center of the map and put explosive towers up. The enemies entered all four entry ways. Then just ran back and forth, allowing to towers to shoot them and won the fight. I got a heroic victory (lol). The AI is so shit in this game. It is still nice when a doom rocket wipes out the blob.
So the Chorfs are actually Covenant? Because holy hell that gentle curve of bright-glowing death reminds me of the way Wraith artillery barrages are described in the books and appear in the games.
CA: no there's no power creep Also CA: Take that you fucking regular stunties, you sicken me. I hope your kind never see the light of play again, it will all be chorfs from now on. Yes, yes, mwahahaaha!
You don't they are bad, i've watched one fail to hit a stationary unit 5 times in a row, combine that with slow reload and slow projectile speed. Yeah its not great.
The deathshrieker artillery is actually way worse than the hellstorm rocket battery when used in the anti-infantry mode. Too inaccurate and unimpressive damage. The hellstorm rocket battery is inaccurate too but does way more damage. The deathshrieker is only worth using in the anti-large mode.
Our artillery will blot out the sky.
Then we shall fight in the shade!
Chaos Dwarves: Sure buddy, you do that.
Not if the missiles are flaming they wont!
Dawi zharr's artillery vs skaven artillery
Mate, I declare you the winner of today. That was on point.
More like "Our artillery will form a second sun"
probably the dumbest quote ever.
This is a pretty lore-accurate depiction of what being an Imperial foot soldier is like in WH.
And an Imperial Guardsman in Warhammer 40k.
And that's their worst artillery
Got buffed a bit, aim and spread plus a bit of work on the damage application. I'd say it's better that he'll cannon now- doubly for sieges!
@@alanhouk1427a I think right now hellcannon might be the weakest of the artillery for choas dwarfs and even the hellcannon especially the renown one is still quite good
@Adam Mauer Renown one is really good because you get four of them and it applies frostbite.
@@VileVamp that’s the extended roster one. The ror shoots faster and is pink
@@pumpknight8539 there are two ror hellcannons
One from chaos warriors
And one fron Norsca
Damn, a pieces of artillery that’s actually for sieges…? Bloody impossible.
You’ll take you’re field cannons and mini catapults and bolt throwers and you’ll like it mister. I want to play shogun 2 again now

God it actually sounds pretty mad when they all hit like that. Like the drumfire arty in WW1

The Deathshrieker Rocker Launcher surely lived up to their name
KATYUSHA ROCKET LAUNCHER REPORTING
I misread that as “The _Deathstrike_ rocket launcher” and realized how OP the 40K Imperial Guard would be in this game.
@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire
I read that as Deathstriker and I was like, "We carrying nukes today boys?"
"Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake."
I love the viewpoint on this. Watching the artillery shells shoot up into the air, the beauty of the scene contrasting with the sheer terror of it.
Ikit Claw: WRITE-JOT THAT DOWN, WRITE-JOT THAT DOWN YES-YES
Or give us Avalanche Mortars ( like the regiment of renown ) as a tier 5 version of the Posions Wind Mortars from the weapon teams building.

As Hashut says "Into the grinder it goes"
You should try 19 dreadquake mortars, by far the most fun doomstack I’ve ever used
It's like a skaven mininuke, except you can give them fucking energy shields and INFINITE AMMO. Absolutely awesome.
@@playwars3037 Wait how can you give it infinite ammo? I thought the buffs from the armoury-thing only gave 1 reload when below 80% ammo.
What about 19 *19* dreadquakes?
@@RexorInvicta Right, fuck, forgot it's not infinite like the bottomless drums from the ratling guns. My bad !

It's a siege battle bro. They will clump up or at least remain stationary most the fight.

Is that the twin tailed comet??? 👀
This is the most beautiful thing I've seen in a while.

Empire: "Acceptable tactical losses"
"it was a tactical retreat" *10,000 footmen lost* "Well at least we didn't loose anyone important" *rich laugh*
I thought this was the 4th of July celebration for a moment.
I suppose this is how it felt going over the top on the first day of Battle at Somme
-Yaaaay fireworks lets gather around to see it better.
+But sir they are called death shrik fire rockets
-☠☠☠
Hey Willie, whats that sound?
Oh that, its just the anguish and wailling of our comrades in arms, as they are blown to smitherines.
Daang, should we do something?
Welp for now the orders are just to move in their direction.
Completely appropriate for the tone of the setting lmao
So beautiful!
those are some sturdy ass houses
Sounds great and looks like weaponized fireworks. lovin the Chorfs
When Age of Sigmar starts looking like 40k
My god… it’s beautiful
something so relaxing and pleasing about that mass deathshrieker rocketfire aesthetic
Hey hans look, fireworks! Happy New year! Wait, Hans, why are the fireworks coming down in our direction?
That is absolutely horrifying. I feel like if your faction faced oof against that, your upkeep would skyrocket. You’d have to pay your soldiers an assload to make them want to face that
Honestly, I don't see much issue with it. You don't need to pay them after they're dead.
Beautiful. The screams oh the dying fill the air already soaked their blood.
beautifull fireworks you got there
I see Warhammer Fantasy’s version of the Somme was about as effective as Haig’s attempt was
Survivors being like "Didn't we just have like a thousand guys? What the fuck happened to the 1000 guys, they were just here!"

the train is the real mvp
In warhammer everyday is the D-Day
thats some deadly fireworks
Clan Skryre style but on steroids
"The rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air..."
That is terrifying.
Goddamn the deathshriekers are cinematic.
Wow, that is really something.
Reminds me of the doomstack warlock engineer’s doomrocket barrage

Chaos Dwarves are the only faction that I don't mind siege battles.
and now the empire got the counterpart of these artillery
If you do this against the lizardmen you reenact the end of the dino when the comet hit.
Empire General 10 years later: our greatest minds still have not come to a conclusion on why we lost that battle.
The AI won that battle in the end. It had 2 heroes on flying mounts that destroyed all the arty.
(ketty perry's song background) "Baby you're a fiiiiiiiiireworks....!!"
Did Chaos Dwarf just signed contract with Tony Stark missile industry?😅😂😂
it would be so awesome if houses could be destroyed and to leave like mini rubble with flame
Agreed, would add a lot to the immersion.
If I recall In Rome 1, all buildings in the siege were destructible. Hope they reimplement it.
Modern arty vs Medieval swordsmen.
Beast titan would be proud
This is what's known as a "meat grinder"
So the Chorfs are actually Covenant?
Because holy hell that gentle curve of bright-glowing death reminds me of the way Wraith artillery barrages are described in the books and appear in the games.
Nah hellcannon would be closest to a wraith shot. Wraith projectiles don't split
Honestly a realistic scenario for a clumped up army vs artillery.
AND THE ROCKETS RED GLARE!!!!
Renaissance era melee vs the guns of ww1
By Hashut, that was beautiful
Weakest chaos dwarf artillery:
nothing like fantasy airburst munitions
Chorfs are 110% worth it, so much fun
nice fireworks

By Sigmar that is terrifying.

Dear 10 guys that are left: Run.
Finally, a worthy match for the hellstorm
