![]() ![]() Norsca don’t have distinct short and long term campaign victories like other Total War: Warhammer factions. Instead, Wulfrik and Throgg’s overall objective is to raze enough towns and toss up enough totems in their place to earn the attention (and attendant bonuses) of one of the four gods. Plus destroy their immediate rival (whomever you didn’t choose as Lord), The Empire and Bretonnia for good measure. #TOTAL WAR WARHAMMER NORSCA TERRITORY PLUS# #TOTAL WAR WARHAMMER NORSCA TERRITORY PLUS#.#TOTAL WAR WARHAMMER NORSCA TERRITORY SKIN#.#TOTAL WAR WARHAMMER NORSCA TERRITORY FOR FREE#.For most fights they’ll end up sitting around half dead or getting stuck because of pathing issues that still occasionally plague the game, so don’t bother with Chariots. ![]() Their leadership is low, and if they take sustained missile fire they rout frustratingly fast. They're only good when they're pushing through a thin line of swordsmen or something smaller as any model object larger than them will make them stop dead in their tracks. Unless you can guarantee fights that require charging into the back lines, they’re pretty useless. Marauder Chariots: Save yourself some gold and don’t buy Marauder Chariots. Their Vanguard deployment makes them great at herding enemy armies into a large ball before the main force arrives, but their low armor makes them vulnerable to being picked off at range. But if they get stuck and surrounded it’s game over. These Doggos of the Frozen North are good boys when it comes to ambush attacks on Archers, Siege Engines, and routing units. Norscan Warhounds: Marginally better than Feral Manticores. They’re a massive liability and should be considered expendable if you ever decide to use them. Which leads to them ending up in fights they really can’t handle. Whilst they’re useful for tying up archers or flying straight on top of artillery at the start of a battle, they drop into Rampage without warning even at high health. Plus they also have a 22 percent missile resistance thanks to their From The Mist ability.įeral Manticore: If ever there was a unit that was a complete waste of time it would be the Feral Manticores. Though their model number is a little understaffed (four at Small, 16 at Ultra), their ability to sunder armor makes them a great support troop against tough late-game units. They inflict Terror upon all that come near and their massive clubs can carve huge chunks out of infantry health bars in just a few swings.įimir Warriors: A monstrous melee unit bedecked in solid plate armor, Fimirs are the armor-breaking damage dealers for Norsca. These battle-scarred, frost-spraying behemoths work great with support and can terrorize troops into fleeing for their lives. Norscan Giant: The Giants of Norsca are nothing like their Southern, temperate climate cousins. The most you'll need is one or two in an army, any more and you're just asking for trouble. Though they have very little ranged protection and if caught in melee they die pretty quickly. Though they're easy to route, they provide both Axe and Javelin throwing variants which specialize them into either Anti-Infantry or Anti-Large so there's some nice adaptability going on. Marauder Horsemen: Ranged skirmishers on horseback, Marauder Horsemen are great for wearing down big monsters or infantry as they get close to your battle lines. Their cavalry speed also makes them great at charges or catching up to other fast-moving units. ![]() Their unit number may be small, but these walking dogs of war come with regen, Anti-Large, and a Frenzy mode that can shred anyone nearby. They can put out a lot of pain and it'll take an entire regiment to put them down. Skin Wolves: High damage-dealing fast movers, the Skin Wolves are the ideal ambush unit for Norsca. Used right you can have a horde of them roaming around for next to nothing. Plus, Wulfrik The Wander has one as a mount and a large number of his skills go towards reducing their costs and upkeep. Mammoths are a high-health, top-tier endgame unit for the barbarian hordes of Norsca, probably the best part of their DLC and you can’t do without at least one by turn 100. Coming in three flavors, one of which buffs friendly troops and another that adds ranged javelin attacks. Mammoth: Sporting chunky health bars, high damage, and the propensity to go into a berserk Frenzy, Mammoths are line-breaking tanks of fur and fury.
