Now you have befier cavalry which also have ranged atack, before you reach Mounted Archers.Īs warlord, being focused primarily on phys damage, having tigran support units (to deal vs phys-resitants) is must, but at same time those turn into black panthers and deal tons of phys damage if needed! Tigran cavalry lack defences, and all tigrans at general (especially at start of the game), Warlord covers that. This covers scouting Warlord problems.Īs mentioned above, Bleeding, sun shield, Berserker pounce. Tigrans are fast race, and that could benefit from playing Irregular Warlord Cheetah/Monster Hunter spam with Explorer spec.Īs cheetahs are fastest irregulars, that gives you fastest 40 movement scout on demand. With warlord spells and buffs you can spam them thru porduction or spell, and their pounce and bleeding causing features are amazing. Tigrans have some amazing synergy, and there few possible ways to play Tigran Warlord.Ĭheetahs are extremely powerful starter irregular unit. Thanks, this was really helpful, I'll have to try some of these Originally posted by jaccovandorpGloweye:Largeyly dependent on playstyle. But I hope to have given you some inspiration. There's something to be said for more races, and there's something to be said about the above that I didn't. If you happen to be shadowborn, double-life steal butchers are a nightmare of themselves. Wargs are a good cavalry to mass, due to Overwhelm allowing them to damage pikes more than other cavalry, while Martial Arts can reduce return damage. Tireless Warbreeds are insane.Įven cheaper, and easy to mass. However, nothing hits as hard on those without Physical Protection as an Orc Warlord. May not be the most powerful choice, though.ĭoubling down on Physical damage, you're going to have trouble with incorporeals. Also, 3-shot mounted archers work good with the Elders as well. Some of them can die fast, but there's some scary potential in the Chargers with dragon ancestry activated, and having Martial Arts and Regrowth. Frozen flames is very nice on 3-shot mounted archers. You may suffer from having a support as T3, but hey, you can compensate that with class units. Nice dual channel damage, which compensates for a Warlord weakness.

For Racials, the Unicorn and the Gryphon both synergize very nicely with the Warlord. High Elf Mounted Archers are insanely good. Global Life Stealing fits the Warlord like a glove, and the Shock Damage and Resistance boost are nice. For specs, Shadowborn is my personal favorite.
