Beastmen army capacity

[Mulàn]

Hi strategy friends.
I've just started a new campaing with beastmen. I did several rituals of ruin and now have tier 7 ruin level. My army capacity should be like 17 just counting the ruin level upgrades but i can only have 5 lords at the same time.

Is it a bug? It is my first time playing beastmen so i am probably missunderstanding something.

Please help a humble guy destroy every human city with a swarm of beastmen.

The "Ruination Level" tooltips are a total army cap increase. Not cumulative per level. You can also read the summary of all bonuses on the left of the ruination bar.

So you only get +1 army cap at level 2,3 and 4 each. And one more at level 6.



However, you can later on buy infinite army cap increases for Dread. The price is always 1500 Dread, unlocked at Ruinationlvl 8.

And you easily get hundreds of dread per turn later on, just buy all the "dread per turn" upgrades for the armies you have. And put the building with %Dread from battles into every herdstone.

Basically the real limit are the unit- and hero cap upgrades, without those the armies aren't really worth buying the cap upgrade.
