Tamurkhan players..

[Mr_Puddins]

I haven't seen them in the forum lately.. I kept expecting some threads to pop up complaining about bugs or raving how awesome he is.. I take this as a good sign actually. Must mean they're all veg'ing out to graphic scenes of Toad Dragons wrecking humans. xD

For Chaos mf's

[Alar]

He's overall great, except the usual slow to start Nurgle faction bit and also sometimes his chieftains injure each other, everything else aside of these two things is great.

[zefyris]

Haven't played him yet, but having faced him in two campaigns, he seems to do very well as the AI, and he's super tough to eliminate. Peoples were talking about farming him for his trait, but the guy moves around with armies full of T5 that can regen, with LHs, high level regular heroes, seems to be taking lightning strike, and is globaly mostly moving in hosts of full armies escorting him. The dude is scary all right.

The region he starts in both maps has lots of high profile LLs, but that doesn't seem to stop him from expanding at all.

Started his RoC campaign last night. Made some early mistakes, going to start over today.
I like the Wolfhart style assembling the team, but I wish there was a clearer overall goal for his campaign. You round up the boys, make them happy by stomping the right people, and then ... what's Tamukhan's ultimate goal?
It feels like I'm assembling the Avengers for a photo op.

Of course, I'm only at the start, so all I really know is that he unlocks a "final battle" once he's made three BFFs; I just don't know what that final battle is supposed to be for.

In the book he's trying to conquer Nuln. Is that not part of his campaign?

Well to follow his Lore, burning Nuln to the ground

[Mr_Puddins]

I haven't scooped him yet cuz I'm a broke bit.. But I certainly intend to. I'm a huge Nurgle fan. My Maggotkin (TT) army is like 3k points... and that's like 90% mortal units.

[HassoCZ]

I'm playing multiplayer versus campaign for the second time. Still cant use plagues. It says to get 200 infections. I have a 333/200 and the boiler icon is still inactive. We don't know what to do with it, so I'm going to play something else for now. It seems to be quite bugged. :-/

[Zyco]

Having a blast playing him and I love Nurgle so I am also biased.. but its alot of fun. Maybe a negative is that there are far too many useless units you can summon.. /shrug

[Atomsk]

Overall Nurgle is still so boring... not much decision making or variety.

The Chieftains/LH's are fun, but the race is still a complete snooze fest... going to give up my current Nurlge campaign and look for mods.

He straight died to Hochland before I even got to him as Elspeth. Seems that was a fluke..

That might be what his final battle is, but nothing I can see on the roadmap of what will make his legendary homeboys happy (you have to max out fealty with 3 of them to unlock the final battle) looks like it's leading to an invasion on the Empire. He spawns forever away from Nuln, so it's difficult to see this campaign taking me that far south.

And Elspeth's final battle wasn't defending Nuln from Tamurkhan. He never showed up in her campaign at all when I played her.

Oh, That's disappointing.

Build one of the lesser army-buildings, that cost 200 infection and cancel it. The infections get refunded and the plagues unlocked. Else you'd need to gather additional 200 infections.

Besides the 37 infection-cap, which can be easily fixed by a mod, it's a fun campaign.

Rot Knights are pretty bonkers.

The 37 plague cap was fixed by the latest hotfix. Cancelling the building to get the first plague is a great idea.

What I dont like about his campaign is the route. I always have to go to Grimgor and after defeating him, you have to kill the ogre factions. They become boring, and while you finish it around turn 32-35 you are at the end of the world and takes 5-7 turns to get to Kislev or the Empire. You are stuck in the mountains.
