You think a faction is overpowered? Come here!

I think what I would do if there was a healthy/resilient guardsman on a village would be to wait for DUSK then use 1 assassin along with other units to do a 3 turn siege (dusk and first and second watch, before retreating at dawn). This is assuming of course I was in a position to be confident I could afford to use such troops there rather than have them needed elsewhere, if I needed them elsewhere I would let them have the village until I felt I was in such a position to be able to force them off.

This is really irritating. He's just spamming guardsmen.

[Velensk]

Not to offend, but looking at the replay it seemed to me like the only reason that was a major problem was mismanagement on your part. He didn't even really spam gaurdsman. Getting 3 at the start is a very defensive build but very sensible if you're expecting orcs and don't want to go heavy on outlaws. Afterward he got them as he needed emergency defense which makes sense. EDIT: Looking further into the replay he did start to spam them but at that point they were not being so effective.

If you want me to take this one apart for you, just ask in a new thread, this isn't really the place for it.

OMG, the 7th turn, the first time I saw backstab in defence.

It maters who your fighting but undead are slightly overpowered with their resistance. But they don't have healers. Spectres are pretty powerful though.

And their mobility is just horrific.

Meaning their mobility is good or bad???

IMO, terrible. The undead units can't get quick, so the core undead units (bar DAs and Ghosts) don't get more than 5mp. But DAs and Ghosts are fragile. And Bats are even weaker now.

Maybe, but as I said it matters who you're fighting.

Every faction has means to go around the undeads' resistances, you just have to get a bit creative with your recruits. Because they also have very obvious weaknesses to exploit. If you think they're so strong, play a few matches as them, you'll see they're not so easy to master. That, and you can read the How to Play Series if you are having trouble fighting them.

Right of course . They are "sometimes" relatively easy to beat.

Hello all,
I don't know if were allowed to talk about all types of faction or just the 6 core ones but I think the aragwaith are underpowered in several areas. I had been playing them and the elves as my main factions for the past couple of years but have noticed that in more recent releases there skills have been dropped. Previously, they had been good, occasionally expensive units with good punch in exchange for weak HP. Now some of the units, specifically the spearmen, seem to have had their attack cut which makes it a far less enjoyable faction, since there's no trade back for the weak HP
Thanks,
Wyvern

I've never used that race even though I have the era.

Welcome to the forums!
I don't think this is the proper place to discuss non-mainline stuff, because if we would do that, we could discuss about hundreds of factions not balanced against anyone.
The better place would be the development threads of the respective eras.

So, why are you posting?
