Highly unlikely. Gameplay wise it's more of the same. Tyrion is very easy, but Teclis can be awkward the first time. Because the area he starts in is filled with enemies.

Define "easy"

I would say HE Campaign forgives you more mistakes and the battle overall is easier because their units are very strong themselves.
Looking at LoS, Archers, Sisters, Dragonprinces lategame or Nagarythe with Stalk Stance

Tyrion seemed pretty straight forward when I gave the HE a try the first time. I am by no means experienced and flood the Discussion board with questions constantly.

They don't really have a clear cut weakness so yeah I suppose they're very easy. They're all around pretty strong.

Give it a shot and if you find it too easy start again on a harder difficulty.

so if i want to play high elves on normal maybe i should play as tyrion on hard as he is easy?

I'd say give Tyrion a shot on normal and if you find it too easy up the difficulty.

IMO as a general rule, WH2 is harder than WH1 for the same difficulty level, count around one level higher of difficulty (so normal in WH1 = easy in WH2, hard in WH1 = normal in WH2 and so on).

So be warry about trying to up the difficulty when swapping from game 1 to game 2. You can do that later if you feel it's more fun for you, but outside of that, I would not do it for the first campaign.
Also if you play Vortex you'll have no experience about rituals and events related the first time, so adding that to a difficulty you barely handle would make it quickly frustrating imo.
Keep higher difficulty on vortex for when you know precisely what to do and what not to do.
Tyrion is comparatively easier than most other start from WH2, sure, but is still comparatively harder than Dwarves' starting position in wh1 (dwarves in ME are another problem though), especially now that you have two VCoast LL starting nearby on the vortex map.
Teclis has a pretty harsh start, especially if you play ME. Vortex is slightly better, but if you don't know your way around with vortex rituals and who to ally with around you, you may quickly drive yourself ina corner, even in vortex.

In my opinion, Tyrion might be the best start in the game. He has a great start in Lothern, and can rapidly grow an empire covering all of Ulthuan. You have clear military expansion options in Caledor and Saphery, and really easy confederations with many other High Elf factions. Tyrion himself is an absolutely amazing LL, capable of going toe to toe with absolutely anything and everything, and having some awesome skills you can get, such as a boost to public order and a buff to global recruitment (which is absolutely amazing by the way).

Overall, playing as Tyrion it's incredibly easy to snowball across all of Ulthuan damn near instantly, with the first actual challenge being Dark Elves in the north, but even they don't put up much of a fight, as the Scourge of Khaine tend to get pretty roughed up by the time you reach them, After initial expansion, you can basically go anywhere after securing all of Ulthuan, and can generally leave Ulthuan almost completely undefended, as in all my playthroughs, I've almost never seen a foreign enemy attack Ulthuan. And even if the unlikely happens, a single high elf stack is easily enough to repel any kind of invasion created by the AI. High Elves in general also have one of the strongest militaries as well as tend to have absolute powerhouse economies, meaning that they utterly steamroll everything mid and late game.

Yes, I looked at Teclis' map since Vampire Coast, and it's rough.

i have played most lord in this game and tyrion is one of the easier. Here are a few reasons:
-Tyrion is a powerful LL (probably one of the strongest, especialy early and late game)
- his factional power reduce by 1 turn the recuitement time of your units (OP)
- You start with "potential" ally all around you ( it is a bit more interesting nowdays with our dear dead pirate friends..)
-you start in a place with a lot of powerfull landmark specialy designed for your faction all around
-BUT most importantly you have the most OP economy of the game. Once it is starded, you have so much money that you can barely spend it.... their city get better bonus than a stage 5 geomantic lizardmen city just by being above 75 happiness... they have massive buff to trade... and they can build 3 different building to get more gold.
.... so yeah, he is easy....

Before Vampire Coast and the High Elf lord dlc it was a very easy campaign. Like you'd really have to try to lose as Lothern as an experienced player even if you played on legendary.

Nowadays since the updates I'm not so sure. Pretty sure it would be harder but I haven't played it again to check. It was a boring campaign for me compared to Teclis.

it still is the super duper easy LL it always was honestly coasts dosen't even try that much to attack you... but even when they do still the easiest campaign of the game.

Not without it's fun tho it is pleasing to see tyrion mow down armies by himself, don't play it if you want any challenge play it if yo uwant a god leading your armies or RP i guess or something like that.

Ah good to know.

And I definitely agree that Tyrion is fun to play around with. Having him solo charge an entire army while his army stands back taking pot shots and cheering him on is pretty funny.
