Nakai the wanderer died on turn 7 to skaven

[Vlad von Carstein]

I didn't even get to fight him in my markus wulfhart campaign before he died to clan mange, he lost 3 fights in a row from the start, is that just bad luck? does the ai for nakai just suck as being a horde? Does he die early on for anyone else, is it even worth restarting to try to fight him?

[MadArtillery]

It's a hoard, all ai hoardes just die instantly because hoards are just not functional in general due to the lose a battle whiped off the map mechanics. Considering how poorly beastmen do I'm surprised anyone's surprised that Nakai is lucky to last as many as 10 turns.

He died on turn two in my campaign lol

[Stab]

Hahaha died to starter rats, thats pathetic

[Carpe Noctem]

Why they didn't give him a really good starting army is beyond me, there's a reason the chaos stacks lasted so long in warhammer 1 - because they were already super buffed and could survive the terrible autoresolve system. Giving him the units you start with when you play as him is just going to lead to his retarded AI plunging into enemy settlements until he eventually dies.

LOL, that's pretty bad, and I'm not sure how often that happens, or how many times CA ran campaigns; but yeah new Lord, plus he's your adversary and now he's dead? That would certainly kill any interest I had in my campaign, especially if you're only on turn 7...

Did they not see that from their beta testing? Weird...

[Anethos]

It does indeed suck hopefully it will be fixed.

Beta testing started yesterday. :) It will be fixed in the winter DLC/patch release.

same thing with my markus playthrough, the big lizard died turn 7 after taking 1 skaven settlement so now there is a single lonely vassal settlement serving as the only sign that nakai existed.

Nakai should probably be able to respawn as long as his vassal faction exists.

[Dreamer]

His army is weak and his replenishment is very low without a hero with replenishment, which takes a while to get. Also his economy is bad so he can't make a bigger army. The result is a guaranteed death in the first few turns.

Nakai dead on turn 7 for me as well playing as wulfhart...
