Chaos help again please :)

Postby Cheah18 » Mon 14 Jul, 2014 11:27 pm

So can people give me an overall pros and cons or strengths and weaknesses (whichever you prefer...) list for chaos please. Feel free to elaborate with tactical advice and stuff.

I play IG so I feel the strengths of chaos most strongly. Now, I'm smart enough to know that what I see isn't the case or people would have pushed for change by now, but from my position I see Chaos getting way too much love. I feel they are Caeltos's big joke as they are so imba. They already were a joke imo and then they get more units. As I said I KNOW this can't be true but that's what I see in front of me, so don't call me ignorant or whatever, use unenlightened instead.

Worship, Shrines, and OP units basically.I just played a game today where I outplayed this guy on all levels. He limped to tier 2, built a nurgle shrine in the middle of the map, got plague marines, and then I just couldn't touch him. Literally. He camped under the shrine heal, my melee units were suppressed by the shrine, and he out gunned me with tzeentch marines and jumped me with raptors. I couldn't force him off nor could I bleed or anything, any damage done was restored by the time I got to my base and back due to shrine worship. He would send his PC on his own with bile spewer to bash gens and cap every now and then and I couldn't dent his army at all.

Rant over. Please Help. Thanks

From a goodish player with a mental block.

Why you didn't buy a manticore?

Also post the replay.

Make him move. De-Cap and power bash his stuff. As IG, you really don't wanna go on the offensive against a well-fortified PC

Ok the example of that one game wasn't the only thing I'm looking for help on its the Chaos in general. That was just me getting my frustrations out.

That is interesting, because I play Chaos, and have trouble with IG :P I really shouldn't.
The internal battery has run dry, the game can now be played. However, clock based events will no longer occur.

If it was just a rant then I guess we can end it here.

if you want advice you should post replays. Are you really expecting us to write EVERYSINGLE thing that comes to mind regarding chaos balance?

Also, IMO, Chaos is favored vs IG overall. Not in every tier but just in general. You must know their weaknesses inside out to maximize your gains and minimize your losses.

It wasn't limited to a rant that was just the one portion and a bit of rhetoric. What I really was looking for is tips and stuff.
