Venice However, posseses my alltime favorite roster. Ottomans have a good roster with ottoman infantry and Jannisaries being the big murderers. The mace wielding German Knights are also very good quality. Zweihander and forlorn hope are cool, but just not as cool as the Gothics. HRE has gothic knights (modded in) and with their armor, are very difficult to kill. Not so great in vanilla, but killing machines in SS. Potugal and england also use these knights.
They also have my favorite heavy infantry, The 2 handed warhammer knights. Scots guards, french archers, and adventurier are insanely awsome. Been a while since I played them.I've been a stainless steel player for years, so the vanilla issues are lost on me.įrance has excelent melee archers. Think the executioneers are pretty good melee and have ok armor. A lot of their stronger female melee fighters are without armor. Seem mostly monster oriented though.ĭark elves. None of their melee units really stand out in my mind, however. About average in everything, but with a well balanced army they are one of the best factions. Same with wood elves and beastmen.Įmpire. Unless you like to flank and ambush, their melee won't stand up long in a face to face fight. Unless you're lined up with all temple guard and a couple of top tier dinos, I'd rate them below chaos and high elves. Plus a lot of the army could end up going bonkers, so you lose control. Lizardmen have some great melee, but mostly are monster oriented. So if you want well rounded melee, go Chaos or High Elves.
Maybe 1vs1 they'll do well, but overall still chaos and high elves.ĭwarfs are great defenders, but are slow and suck at offense (unless it's pounding everything to goo with artillery offensive). Not as good as above mentioned however in an army vs army. I've recently been playing orcs more, and the black orcs are pretty awesome. Not even mentioning their archery units which in numbers can beat just about anything if done quickly enough.īlack orcs are great, but due to the rest of the army having lower leadership, I'd place them behind chaos and high elves. Not really infantry, but combined with swordmasters and phoenix guard, they have one of the best armies in the game. The dragons are some of the strongest monsters in the game. And due to the faction bonuses until they start losing too many troops, they are arguably some of the best melee units in the game. And the HE have amazing leadership and good armor for high tier troops. Both are well balanced defensive and offensive units. The high elves have swordmasters and phoenix guard.
They'll hold on to the end unless you flank and wipe their lord. Never been a fan of playing chaos, but playing against them sucks unless you have lots of ap units.
