Khorne economy is terrible

[KoboldUtopian]

I just think it's funny how people are dumping on Nurgle for having a weak economy while that big red slashy boy's buildings cap out at 60gp each.

U do realize Khorne economy is not based on his buildings, but on battles, looting, sacking, and skullz farming ?

[Testikles]

Legend summed it up pretty well, saying that Khornes colour is red. If everything you see is red - armies, blood, economy - you are playing him correctly. Embrace the red. Don't even think about a "stable economy". Think about a steady flow of blood to offset your expenses.

Why are you bothering with buildings for big red, smash it up and burn everything in your path

Battle, raiding, sacking and razing is what big red is all about don't even bother touching the diplomacy button

He doesn't play like the other factions, his "economy" is all built around destruction and gets boosts from it. Hes a wrecking ball, run a negative economy and maintain as many blood hosts as you can.

In fact, only bother to occupy one region / settlement in a province, usually the capital if its feasible, sack and raze the rest to the ground. They will automatically occupy by your faction later.

Haha, ya'll missing the point here. I know he works best getting all the money from sacking. It's just funny that we are all ok with that but whine about Kugath.

I'm not one of those that complain about Nurgle, if anything, they are polar opposite play styles and both change the game up. Kugath you find yourself moving very slowly to start with but become unstoppable later, while with Skarbrand you are smashing stuff and expanding straight out of the gate.

People complain about both because they haven't understood or don't like the play styles. I think both are good personally. Glad that factions are not completely copy pasted.

The beginning is the worst and you actually have to sack and fight to survive but it's only like that at the start.

Occupy every province capitol, raze all minor settlements (after sacking them first obviously). Minor settlements recolonize for free and the the small income numbers add up nicely over time. Repeat this and you will have tons of money in no time.

People really go all the way in on the killing aspect but I did a VH Khorne IE game and it was easy enough to dominate all of the Araby and Jungle south (even though those are mid hospitable). I had income of 20k and was fielding multiple armies.

Also, I never made use of any Hosts. When I saw that this s**t costs upkeep I just never touched it and later on I forgot that it even is an option.

Khorne economy is based on fighting battles

Well the blood hosts boost your growth significantly, so if you want the top tier units ASAP it helps to get this going. I remember growth being painfully slow without the blood hosts unless that's been changed since i last played.

You don't need good eco when you can just push everyone's face in and take theirs.

Problem being the way you wrote your thread.
While I understand your "rant" is about how people are unhappy about Nurgle while Khorne's economy buildings are in a similar situation (which they aren't since Khorne don't really care about "building an economy") and NOT about how Khorne's economy is bad, you phrased it (specially the title) in an easily confusing thread.

And tbh, it's getting really tedious how people complain all the time about any little things which don't fit their taste / vision... #Spite

You can sack three to five settlements with him in one turn, based on how close they're placed near each other. Maybe you have two to three regions with good income later on. That's the fun part with him.
If that is not enough try to buy in a strong vassal, I just got me a slayer king.

[Bill]

sack and raze everything, fight, fight and fight. that's khorne gameplay

[rgarrett]

FWIW, I like both Skarbrand and Kugath.
