It is honestly insane to watch an entire stack of infantry melt to a line of gunmen. Sometimes, I even ran an army without any melee. When I played Vampire Coast I rarely had more than a couple of melee units with me and they were just meatshields for my Mob Gunners. Luther Harkon, one of the best Lords in the game, is also a good ranged fighter as well who gets his own Necrofex mount! Most units in the Vampire Coast DLC are ranged and even some of their monster units (looking at that sexy ass Necrofex) are ranged. Not only are their missile units extremely powerful (Necrofex hnngggg), but their hero units can also wield ranged weapons, and even greater still, the Gunnery Wights can refill the ammo of your most important units (did I hear infinite Queen Bess?). One Redditor even posted his personal record with Queen Bess, an astonishing 3700 kills! If that doesn’t make you want to join the VC, I don’t know what will. A Queen Bess can decimate an entire army on the level with Lord Kroak. Ideally, you don’t want your units to slowly take damage over time, but it is far superior to breaking ranks and losing the battle.Īlso, the Vampire Coast field some of the strongest artillery in the game, with Queen Bess being one of, if not THE strongest cannon in the game. This means that the Vampire Coast units will never rout when their leadership dips below the threshold, instead, they disintegrate, causing damage to themselves over time. Why is the Vampire Coast so strong you might ask? Well, first off, they are undead.
With almost half their roster being some form of the ranged attacker, the Vampire Coast is incredibly deadly if given the opportunity to use their ranged advantage. In fact, even though they aren’t number one right now, they are, at the very least, a top-three ranged faction in Warhammer 2. So, before the multitudes of DLC came out, the Vampire Coast had by far the best-ranged units in the game. In other words, you won’t find a better-ranged faction in Total War Warhammer 2 than clan Skryre. These nukes are incredibly powerful and can wipe several units out at once, regardless of the strength of that unit, which makes the creation and usage of these nukes one of the key ranged advantages Skryre has. You can manufacture nukes at the forbidden workshop, allowing you to drop one per battle on a group of enemies (or even yourself if you’re feeling extra spicy). Even dragons or other strong end-game units won’t be able to handle hundreds of rat-men shooting at them all at once.īut besides that, clan Skryre also has one other significant advantage, their nukes. All of these upgrades, when combined, make your army incredibly hard to beat, and impossible to outlast, as you will never run out of ammo.Ī favorite tactic of mine is to have entire armies of ratling guns that mow down every enemy army in seconds. Missile strength increases, ammo capacity increases, automatic ammo replenishment, and even regeneration. With this workshop, you can research so many bonuses for your little rat pals that it’ll make your head spin. The thing about this faction that makes them so absurdly broken is the faction-specific mechanic, the Forbidden Workshop.
Clan Skryre is one of the most broken factions of the game because they take powerful artillery and or missile units like the Ratling Gun, and then say “why not give them infinite ammo?”. Without a doubt, the single best-ranged faction in Total War Warhammer 2 is Clan Skryre, from the Skaven.
