Maybe Alberic De Bordelaux is on that level (although he gives factionwide income from docks which is nice), and I've never felt that OP with Thorgrim. Most other legendary lords feel like they can do something completely broken that makes you win every fight with far worse armies once you get them some levels. I'm sure I've probably forgotten someone important, but can't think of who off the top of my head.

His couple unique skills are not enough to make him that useful. Krell seems nice, except you can't give him items so he ends up weaker than even a necrarch lord.īelegar is similar problem to Grimgor, but I can't even recall any units he buffs, and he doesn't even get armor piercing. Why would I pick either of them when Necrach lords are better casters and a necromancer on a corpse cart give better buffs to the army. Kemmler and Ghorst I don't think I need to explain why I think they're weak. Neither him nor Grimgor become particularly strong individually (grimgor gets no mount, azhag is similar strength to a regular lord orc lord and while lore of death is nice you have to spend points that could be better used on red buffs, lightning strike, or even waagh). While grimgor buffs black orcs (a more useful unit), its not super substantial (especially in comparison to someone like wurzhag who makes savage orc big uns stronger than chosen). There are a lot of lords who aren't individually that amazing (like alberic de bordelaux, or imo morathi), but they give bonuses to other units (like bonuses to knights of the realm and shades).Īzhag can give bonuses to regular orc boyz, but they're a bit too low tier to be useful past the early game (and its a level 10 talent so unless you started as azhag you might not even use it). To me, the 5 worst legendary lords in the game are Belegar, Grimgor, Azhag, Kemmler, and Ghorst.

I'm curious if other people have the same experience as me with those lords that do nothing.
To me, there are a lot of legendary lords who just completely trivialize battles (especially to me lords like Wurzhag, Malekith, Durthu, Kholek, Wulfrik, Throgg, all of them just make battles unlosable) a few with ridiculous campaign map abilities (white dwarf and vlad come to mind), and then a few who do just basically nothing. I'm curious what people think about this topic though. There probably already a topic on this somewhere, but I'm lazy and don't want to look.
