I'd legit like it if Dwarfs got a Grudgeraker unit that operated like a more durable regiment of Iron Hail gunners.

I'd love a Dirty Dozen/ Kelly's Heroes style campaign where you slowly replace your stack with unique heroes you recruit and your campaign win condition is to pull of heists from all the major races to fund your retirement.

Grudgerakers are an obvious roster addition. I mean, poo poo, if Cathay and loving pirate zombies can get shotguns, why can't the stunties? Make them decent in melee as well and you can use them to support with fire, but also plug up any holes that may appear in the lines (I mean quarrelers can do this to an extent, too, so it's not OP). Basically, yes, give us more shotguns with which to kill elves.

Very surprised Empire doesn't have any shotguns. They gave two pistols to those idiots on horses, but won't give anyone a shotgun? You can call it a shotgonne if you want to pretend it's from antiquity

I'm imagining some dwarf gunsmith saying "we can't trust humanity with this brutal technology, no shotguns for the empire of man" and then signs off on a delivery of a shitload of raw gunpowder and heavy artillery

Allied Units need to include heroes just for this. A 20 stack of SEMs of as many factions as possible. There are 20+ factions, after all, though some are mutually exclusive like how Daemons auto declare on Order.

Ok I just looked up the real reason for the name and yeah, that's pretty good. The actual inventor is Herman Faulkstein, but the name comes from when Toddy was almost hit by a rocket barrage. The 'helstorm' in question was him swearing at the crew after the battle

This is why I think a Dogs of War/Morgan Bernhardt and the Grudgebringers DLC would rule. I don't think it was ever super popular in tabletop but building a mishmash hodgepodge of overpowered special characters and weird units and bouncing from fight to fight across the map without worrying about any of the empire building stuff would just be a blast.

So while CA fixes the travesty that is not having SLAMBO... what are some good games on Steam where you can get the SLAMBO experience? Basically create your Chaos Warrior, paint him green and wreck poo poo, or, lead a chaos warband and wreck poo poo. Fantasy preferred but 40k is fine too. I played the most popular Warhammer games like Vermintide, the first 2 DoWs, Hired Gun, Space Hulk(s), etc. but you usually play the good guys in those, also GW gave the license to so many devs I don't even know where to start for this. Is Mordheim: City of the Damned good for this? Chaosbane maybe?

Comrade Blyatlov posted:Yeah but I don't want to play High Elves I hear ya. I know they are OP and good and powerful. But I just can't stand them. I didn't know anything of the lore before I started playing Warhams II. I still have never played as them, at this point it seems like it would just be easy mode. Those drat elves just sounded so loving snooty and they have lovely faction names that aren't any fun and are hard to pronounce and they are so annoying to fight that I am always happy to see the Donut burn. The Wood Elfs aren't so bad because they stay in their lane and the Dark Elfs are fun because they are so Hot Topic it hurts.

I'd have to grudgingly (no pun intended) accept that but seeing as how Shadow of the Horned Rat and Dark Omen were essentially proto-versions of Warhammer TW, it would be so sweet to come full circle and get Commander Bernhardt and the Grudgebringers in this title.

Before Cathay and Kislev were announced I was certain Dogs of War would be a core race just because of the DLC potential and the possibility of Morgan Bernhardt being poster boy for the game.
