Mission 2: Nurgle's followers | Imperial campaign: Act IV Warhammer MOC Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Another easy mission. I take catapult, Dwarven infantry, swordsmen, all shooters and cavalry with me. Riders and hunters formed one group and the rest of forces second one. I advise you to do the same.
We move main forces forward and cavalry group to the right. We can see a small canyon there with a valley behind it. Charge in there and destroy a single unit of axe-throwers and then Chaos' hounds. Short after that Chaos' furies will appear - they're target for our hunters. When all foes are dead we can move back to rest of our troops.
Meanwhile there will be a lot of entertainment on the main front. There will come some regiments of axe-throwers, Chaos' warriors and knights. If we concentrate fire, use wizards and catapult we can survive without any losses. Both groups should end their fight in the same time - connect them and move in the north direction.
Near the top of the map we can see one unit do Plaguebearers walking near the bottom of a hill. Hellcannon stands on its top, which should be target for our catapult. Attack demons with the rest of our forces. When we're close to them, regiment of Chaos' knights will strike on us from the hill - it's best to stop them using Father of thorns spell. We will move to them when we finish first group off. When there are some of our units free, we can order it to support destroying hellcannon. When there are no foes nearby, we take cavalry and move along the road to the left. At its end marauders' regiment waits - they're no challenge. Meanwhile the rest of the army should march to the upper-right corner of the map.
Now it's time to fight another two groups. If we don't rush, we should be able to crush them one by one. First one includes chaos warriors, champion and wyrdspawn. Beast is target for infantry, warriors for father of thorns and some spells followed by knights, while champion can be challenged by Stefan. In short time there is no enemy alive. Second group can be killed in the same way, but this time we have to face two regiments of demons and one sorcerer - all servants of Nurgle.
After this mission we move to next crossroads, where we should turn south and fight a duel with Nurgle's champion. Once again he's no match for von Kessel.
After both tasks it's time for great preparations - final battle awaits. My advice: let's take 2 Elven ballista, Dwarven catapult and Imperial cannon. In addition to them it's good to take 3 regiments of Elven archers, 2 handgunners, 2 spearmen, 1 swordmasters of Hoeth, halberdiers and swordsmen, Stefan, Aurelion and both human mages. All these troops should be upgraded as much as we can.
