Nimble frontliners

[Magna Kaizer]

How do people feel about nimble guys holding the forward positions?
I feel like they are workable but running all nimble for me was terrible I had so many more close calls.
Only have 2 left out of a full frontline, funnily enough the more forged guys I add the better my nimble guys perform.

The last few campaigns I've run have had teams that were almost entirely Nimble. I use them as front liners all the time.

They are easy to focus down for archers/goblins if using 2h, so I use only shielded nimble frontliners. And ultimately can't come close to forged+indom survivability.
But, very few recruits have raw stats to reach forged+indom cycle (I mean the better Indom cycles, shieldwall+Indom or 2hAoe+Indom). While almost everybody can be useful as nimble. So I also have 90% nimble composition.

Well I have been using them as 2-handers and I still have 2 left I guess my playstyle works better for forged since I dont run heaps of archers making enemy archers harder to deal with

It's fine most of the time, better sometimes. Just can get dicey if the enemy is using cleavers, so in that situation it's good to have a forged guy to rotate in.

My 2h guys are mostly nimble, and my tanks are all forged. Not that I'm against nimble tanks, just didn't find the right bro for it this time.

Majority nimble with a handful of battle forged works really well.

nimble/dodge/shield bros are pretty easy to build with low tier backgrounds so cheapness and general low cost of the bro over their career is pretty nice also.
