William Bear posted:Good old Slaanesh. When I think of animals synonymous with hedonism and debauchery, I think of anteaters and crabs. Androgynous devils with crab claws is a storied tradition, from Slaanesh's demons to HIM from Powerpuff Girls. Which is only two data points now that I think of it, but still more than one might expect.

To be entirely fair, the Chaos Warriors weren't that much worse than other launch factions in the first game. The real issue is that CA did a major rework for pretty much every single one of them, while all Chaos Warriors got were some minor updates, so they look completely out of place by now.

Not backporting any of the various improvements made to horde/semihorde (VCoast) factions to WoC have made them the single most painful campaign to play IMO, and that's on normal/normal. Factor in the Legendary AI cheats that make melee infantry the single worst class of units by far and it's even worse. Hoping for some serious improvements in TW3 or just abolish the faction and roll it into the various new Chaos factions IMO

It’s really hard to get their worth out of them for me. They aren’t good at exploiting flanks due to their speed, you can’t reposition them easily, and they just evaporate against artillery. elite melee infantry are generally in a poor place imo. Way too expensive for what they offer, when normally you’d be better served by single entity monsters/heroes, or more ranged units instead.

Chosen don't need to exploit flanks to be one of the best heavy infantry units in the game. They can hold out for forever against pretty much anything in melee. I don't know that I've ever noticed them being more vulnerable to artillery than other infantry units. Pro tip if this is a problem for you: bring other units.

True but it is coming back in like a year. I'm sure Games Workshop is putting a lot of faith in Total War fans (and Vermitide!) being willing to take out the several comedically large bank loans needed to buy their models.

Yeah Chaos is boring but not without tricks. They even have dragons and manticores, not to mention giants and trolls. And some of the best heavy infantry and undisputed best artillery in the game. They’re just boring as gently caress.
