It was so fun seeing the Thunderbarge in action. Since you can't target things with it (except for the harpoon, god I loved seeing that) it's biggest counter should be counter artillery since they can focus it down. If it's turn out to be a menace it might be a good idea to increase the cost to reduce your army size if you want to bring such a beauty onto the field.

Ай бұрын

Hopefully they will nerf the afterburner, increasing the damage, giving it a duration and a cooldown. If the speed is manageable then you will only need to deal with the armor, high health and insane damage output.

It is completely insane that the Thunderbarge, a huge blimp, has 120 armour (a literal steam tank only has 40 more) and a non-committal, reusable speed boost. I'm sure this and the other big new special units will all be fun to play, but they are so low skill and low risk, I'm already bored of watching it after 2-3 games. Playing against them will probably suck even more.

Honestly some people in the comments want it nerfed way to hard, imo the only thing that needs to be done is a slight cost increase and disabling the Weapons while it's speedbosting. The biggest problem I can tell from the videos I have seen is that it can simply run away and avoid it's counters all the while still firing in all directions and even slowly killing it's pursuers. If it has to stop dealing damage to avoid getting swarmed and then retreat to the dwarven lines for support to get it's pursuers of it's back it'll greatly diminish the destruction it does and forces some of the Dwarven units to actually actively support it which will leave possible openings for enemies to approach and deal with the Dwarven Army. That would also highly increase the skill needed to play it effectively which sounds fun to me as well.

the boost should have a long cooldown and do more damage. The blimp should be like 3500 gold, nothing less. Don't make it weaker, just make is extremely expensive

We haven't even got to play with the Thunderbarge yet, and people are already complaining about how op it is. I get it, it sucks facing it in multiplayer and I agree. But I don't want campaign units being nerfed to accommodate multiplayer. The campaign stuff should remain wild and fun. I think limiting the boost ability to a one-time-use per battle would eliminate the kiting problems without taking away from the epicness of the unit.

I think that thunder burner thing and the other similar ability on the land ship should have some side effects For example it should give the ship ability to escape melee but the expense of stopping the entire crew from shooting while this ability is active So even if you kept that thing on the whole time you know you can flee but you can't shoot back either And it makes sense too because you are travelling at much faster speed that you normally can and for that your crew need to brace for it and this will prevent them from shooting at the same time

Yessss, it begins!

I can't wait to see the new Empire units in action, the only one I've seen so far is the landship and I'm really interested in their other gunpowder!

Thunderbarge is crazy, I decimated entire backlines of high elves archers and lotherns with it.

I saw other videos with the Thunderbarge. It needs a self-damage boost and a speed nerf, maybe make its max speed 75, I love its idea and I wouldn't want to see it change much, but something needs to be done.

Terrible intensity skill. Some things never change. They could double the value and halve the required kills and it still would have been maybe 20% wardsave for a 0 armor unit under 50% health.

Hey Turin! Love the content as always! However it seems like the audio level of your uploads is quite low compared to other videos on youtube. Even if I turn my music volume to minimum and turn the audio of your video to max the music just barely has lower volume than your video.

Those Doomseekers are jacked! And just as tall as the Cathay warriors. xD

how many units of sister of avelorn would take that sky machine out?

My contribution would be that three changes are needed, one is that it’s bombs should be manual control, there is no reason why Cathay’s Lantern units should need to be manual but the thunder barge isn’t. The second change is that the Thunder barge should not have a boost to its turning radius, that makes no sense, if the boost is on it should be forced to move forward at high speed. A cool-down is definitely needed on the boost.

calling it now the thunder barge is gonna be a warp lightning cannon line's wet dream

Im waiting to see a domination match before solidifying my opinion on the Thunderbarge. If I had to make some changes based on what I’ve seen so far: - Cost more - Double thunderburner damage - Lower thunderburner speed (60-75) - Swap shotguns with regular thunderers, or reduce shotgun range.

Cannot wait to play campagin and doomstack Thunderbarges!
