I completely agree, even if Festus is strong in the early game, the other three can confederate each other very easily with the help of cults. Sure Festus can lower the cost of plagues by 25%, but Khugath and Epidemius can lower plague costs by 15% each, among other benefits.

How can you disagree when you agree with his points. 🧐 Every faction snowballs eventually, it's just a question when and Nurgle is the slowest getting there with possible the exception of Ogres, meaning you'll sit around doing little or fending off much stronger opponents. The issue is as he explained in the video is resource, unit, and gold starvation early game. Once you have all of these sufficiently covered with Nurgle the campaign is over already.

You can recruit an instant stack sure, but my god your income sucks. I still think upkeep on most nurlge is too high, you can barely afford to full stacks even after 50 turns.

It was very lore accurate though and he needed overpowered plagues to even be playable. I realize if we balanced units from the lore Nurgle would be unbeatable and that would truly be busted, but I'd download that mod in a heartbeat, because funny. 😁

honestly Festus and Tamurkhan probably should've been the other way around. Festus is more of a cult leader than a warrior, he certainly shouldn't be leading Warrior of Chaos warbands around. his armies should be filled more with cultists and Daemons meanwhile Tamurkhan is a Warrior of Chaos leader. frankly it'd be pretty accurate to put him in a Sigvald situation, Undivided but still leaning towards Nurgle (that kind of situation actually fits much more for Tamurkhan than for Sigvald, Sigvald does belong in the Warriors of Chaos but he should be Slaanesh only like Azazel), after all after winning at Zambaijin Tamurkhan had followers of all 4 gods in his army. at the time that he fought Karaka Breakmountain (his current body in-game) he was actually using the body of a Chaos Lord of Slaanesh that had killed his previous host at Zambaijin (it seems like a recurring thing that Tamurkhan really isn't any good at actually fighting, he's really carried by his ability to just take over the body of whoever killed his previous host)

Yes to Nurgle, not Skaven.

Skaven Plagues aren't affected by infections at all. currently infections are exclusive to Nurgle.

@@Eclipsed_Embers I was referring to Lord Skrolk who uses plaques no?

@@Eclipsed_Embers Ah i see, I assumed Lord Skrolk fit the "nurgle" category. ty

@@quasidoc7726 all Skaven except Clan Eshin have one method of spreading Plagues (the Pestilent Scheme) and Clan Pestilens has a second method via their undercities but they don't have the same plaguemaking mechanics as Nurgle does. the Skaven don't have a system to make new plague effects. all Skaven plagues are the exact same one plague. Skaven Plagues have negative effects for all factions except Nurgle and Pestilens which gain positive effects instead (I'm pretty sure that Clan Pestilens still suffers the negative effects of Nurgle Plagues). also it should be noted that the relationship between Nurgle and Clan Pestilens is complicated. almost all Skaven (including most of Clan Pestilens) worship the Horned Rat and would consider worship of Nurgle to be heretical, however some individuals within Clan Pestilens do worship Nurgle (who they called "the Horned God"). meanwhile Nurgle himself hates the Skaven (including Clan Pestilens) since most Skaven see desease as a weapon designed to harm and kill whilst Nurgle sees desease as something to be loved (Clan Pestilens do love desease but they do still see it more as a weapon made for causing death and suffering than as life in its own right).. despite this Clan Pestilens have been known on occation to ally themselves with the followers of Nurgle.

I think that’s a no. If I’m not mistaken, all the chieftain legendary heroes are exclusive to tamurkan.

no, he's exclusive to Tamurkhan (tested as Epidemius, Be'lakor, and Festus). if you're playing as any faction besides Tamurkhan he just starts with Kayzk.

it's always there in Costin videos. Either the video saturation was increased in editing or he plays with reshade/some other shaders

He has a video explaining his settings, it's mostly sharpness and saturation. If you want to go further there's also ReShade.

@@Gr_ywind I will check it out, thanks!

This is bothers me and when you play a nurgle faction you can't confed him either, makes no sense to me.

For if you don’t want to be undivided.

@@lberghaus belakor can make an army of any monogod faction tho

@lberghaus there's still belekor, archeon, daniel the demon and kholek who could be undivided tho. The others would be better suited in the factions of God they more align to, it would bulk those factions out, for those who don't want to be undivided.
