What Does "Power vs ?" Means?

[D.A.R.K.]

I don't understand what the name means in Power vs Something.
I think Power vs Chaos means Power vs Chaos Warriors.
But there's Power vs Armored, that should means all armored enemies?

If I have 10% Power vs Chaos and 10% Power vs Armored,
I will deal 20% extra damage against Chaos Warrior?

Can anyone explains me which Power vs Something means?

"Skaven" is all Skaven faction enemies and "Chaos" is all Chaos faction enemies. Check out the Property List here for info on all available types:

All of the Rotbloods (the viking guys) are part of the chaos faction which means that "power vs chaos" is "power vs rotbloods".

Oh, I didn't know there are factions in the game.
Besides, this "Tutorial" sucks... Look at that:

Power vs Armored
Increases the damage done to armored enemies.

Power vs Chaos
Increases the damage done to Chaos enemies

Power vs Skaven
Increases the damage done to Skaven enemies.

that doesn't help at all, what a waste of time =/

[Frazzledragøn the Trustworthy]

Damage to Skaven = Rats
Damage to Chaos = Humans and everything that is creepy
Monsters = the four regular boss type enemies
Armored = Well... armored

[✠UK_SPAWN✠]

so is chaos warrior 'armoured' or 'chaos'? or does that buff doubble stack if you have both?

You're a bit of an idiot, aren't you? It's pretty obvious if there's some overlap between, for example, + to Armored and + to Chaos, then yes, those both affect Chaos Warriors.

I've had vs infantry before. Any idea which enemies count there?

Trash-mobs, like your default map spawns and elites, like Marauders and Stormvermin.
Probably not including specials and maybe not Chaos Warriors.

[D.A.R.K.]

Ok, let me see if I understand that correctly:

Power vs Chaos = Increase Damage against all Northerns / Humanoids enemies.
Power vs Skaven = Increase Damage against all Rat-like enemies.
Power vs Armored = Increase Damage against all Armored / Shielded enemies [both factions].
Power vs Monsters = Increase Damage against all Random Bosses [not Final Bosses].
Power vs Infantry = Increase Damage against 1-hit Rats and Northerns / Humanoids.
Power vs Berserkers = Increase Damage against that single Elite Northerns / Humanoid.

Is that right?

VS berserkers also increase damage to the green monk rats afaik.

Plague Monks are also Berserkers. Other than that, yes. Plague Monks are the rat guys in dresses that hit really fast and shriek a lot.

The way it works is that each enemy in the game has two designations.
One racial (chaos or skaven) and one for its role (infantry, armored, berzerker, monster).

For example, Chaos Warriors are armored, and obviously Chaos. So if you have 10% more power vs Chaos and 10% more power vs armored, you will have 20% more power vs Chaos Warriors (NOT 20% more damage).
Same thing for bosses. A Chaos Spawn is considered "Chaos" and also "Monster".
For specials, they are basically all considered "infantry". Except Ratlingunners and Warp-fire Throwers I think, which should be "armored".

Infantry is the only thing I wonder about, isn't basically anything besides bosses and specials infantry?

Also, power % increase, is that taken from the whole heroes power, or just on that item?

I still don't understand why would ANYONE use 'power vs berserkers'. Even 'power vs monsters' seems a bit mediocre but I can see some kind of usefulness. But berserkers? Really?
