Warriors of Chaos: any reason to use Chaos Marauders?
And on this note, why do people say Sigvald is good? He has no mount, no AP (I think), and has a skill that makes the upkeep of all Chaos Lords and Chaos Sorcerer Lords +25% increase.

Not really, they are just a transition early till you get Chaos Warriors and Chosen.

Sigvald is ok, cause his unique skill tree buffs are nice. Also he starts with Hellcannon.

What's stopping you from going straight into Chaos Warriors at turn 4?

Nothing. I use a mix of marauders and Chaos warriors, so i dont get too much negative income, so i can invest into replenishment faster.

After that you just transition and never use marauders.

Marauders have their place in multiplayer though.

Is that starting with Archaon or Kholek? Or Sigvald?

I mean there is no recipe. It depends on difficulty too and what your lord builds are.

I prefer building full stack as soon as possible and getting replenishment unlocked as much as possible.

I never go for lightning strike, even when playing horde factions (that is not optimal though, just my preference, cause it becomes trivial after a while if you take it).

I go for burning head with Archaon asap, and for red tree with Sigvald and Kholek.

What is most important with playing horde factions on higher difficulties is having an agent scout ahead, so you dont get jumped by 3 or 4 stacks when you just had big battle. Other than that, WoC is a breeze.

Although investing in horde growth is also a very good choice. But as i ignore blue tree, just 1 point, i get to have stronger army buffs earlier.

Chaos Marauders are your basic, cheap infantry option. They make great fodder when you are using hammer and anvil tactics

For their low upkeep costs, but you'll probably want to swap them out for chaos warriors and chosen as soon as you can.

Sigvald can become a pretty decent foot lord and duelist.
