Posts from Which Orc hero do you prefer? Auto-translated

There are many good heroes among the Orcs, but perhaps the best are: Krag, Tilsek, Hegesh, and Argat. 1) Hegesh: - one of the best heroines, not only for the Orcs but for the entire game. What more can be said about her? Perhaps everything has already been said: 1. She is difficult to rush. 2. It is easy to clear neutral creatures with her. 3. It is easy to go on a rush with her. 4. The lack of magic does not harm her in any way, and her warcries completely replace it. 2. Tilsek - is he a rusher? In principle, yes, but it's not that simple: he has machines, and therefore it is easy to grab a tent, which means a battle without losses. However, his special ability is not very good, and I would prefer to forget about rushing with him. Many have already tried to rush with him, but it hasn't been very successful; Warmachines are not a very good unit. 3. Krag - well, he is a real Orcish wonder... one thing is clear: he is only good for the late game. 4. Argat - in my opinion, the most interesting heroine, especially when playing against a human, as she initially has high movement speed, which allows her to clear many more neutral creatures than her opponent. It is good to play against dwarves with her, as they are not in a hurry, and in general, against all slow races.

Warg Riders aren't a very good unit.

It's a very serious mistake to think of Warg Riders as not being a good unit!
I would even say that it's the strongest unit in the Horde army. How do you kill it? Because its counterattack is incredibly powerful! And if it's also blessed by Tilseck...

No... NO... Today I played as Ingvar against Tilseck, and 150 warriors wiped out all the Warg riders. And why does everyone think that Karli is better than Ingvar? Karli probably wouldn't have been able to defeat Tilseck.

Yes, I would definitely do that. I generally like ranged armies, and I use these weak ranged units for their intended purpose... But that's off-topic.
However, rushing with Tilshek is quite possible; you just need to invest in the ballista. Of course, every fan of machinists knows that.
Krag is truly a beast. Especially with a good Attack skill, Stun, and Devil's Strike, and Support.

Reinforcements were banned in the championship; this is outrageous cheating. Tilsek is not that bad, but Warmongers lack initiative; they are more like cannon fodder for the Orcs.

Moderated: OFF-TOPIC in the message

You just need to use Warmongers correctly (to justify Tilsek, I hope this isn't off-topic?). Firstly, thanks to their abilities, it's not that easy to deprive Warmongers of their rage. Secondly, you can use abilities to encourage them, and they will move earlier than their initiative would normally allow. The same can be done by Chieftains, and Shamans can also speed them up. Thirdly, you yourself hint that at the beginning, they aren't the main focus; there are other Orcs that are more of a threat, for example, Goblins due to the Horde's rage, then Cyclops and Chieftains, and Wyverns as well. So, during this time, they accumulate so much rage that it's not that easy to reduce, and the hero also helps. In addition, you need to use the "Taunt" ability, i.e., move next to Goblins, for example, and Shamans. Let someone try to take the easy path and quickly defeat the Goblins! They'll get a mega-counterattack. In conclusion, in unskilled hands, Warmongers are indeed just cannon fodder. But in the hands of strong players, they are a terrible weapon.

Maybe you're right, I didn't level up Tilsek past level 10. My biggest problem in this game is losses, constant losses... Not huge ones, lately just a few units, but still losses. If you could explain how to play as the Necropolis, because I'm not doing very well with them...

I prefer Tilsek because of his fast start with a ballista and my favorite warmongers... Also, you can take Krag towards the end of the late game; he becomes very strong... for example, I gave him the Darkness Shroud and Weakness Curse, and stunning him is a very effective tactic:smile49:
I want to ask who will go first, the Hagheshian heroes or Krag, if we play ORC vs ORC... or does Krag always go first?)))

Kragg is the first. But this can only be a melee attack.

Kragg is the first. But this can only be a melee attack.

How useful is it to give Kragg the "Sharp Mind" skill?

Haven't checked, but maybe he attacks twice: first in melee, and then uses the War Cry skill.

You might be right, I didn't level up Tilsek past level 10. My biggest problem in this game is losses, constant losses... Not big ones, recently just single units, but still losses. If you could explain how to play as the Necropolis, because something isn't working out...

...level him up a bit more and instead of Warlords, take Warriors, they attack more often and have a longer range. And of course, the hero compensates for the lack of defense... and also, with high luck, Orcish Warriors attack twice, which generates a lot of rage!!!!!!:eek:

at the very beginning, it's convenient to play with a hero like GOSHAK... but on the forum, I came across the opinion that this is only suitable for the beginning of the game... I don't think so... I'll see what happens in the later stages of the game...

In scenarios, I like Goshak because of his good units, and in campaigns, I prefer Gotai because of his "Warlord" ability.

In my opinion, Shag-Karuk, Goshak, and Haggesh are the best (Haggesh has the best starting position, in my opinion), and Keegan is also good, as there are many goblins.

I would personally choose Haggeesh.
