Chieftain is a Skaven Hero unit introduced in Total War: Warhammer II with The Twisted and Twilight Update as a free DLC.
Recruitment[ | ]
- Unlocked with: Clan Barracks or Clan Mors Headquarters
Description[ | ]
A Warlord cannot be everywhere at once and so must build up a cadre of enforces – loyal (for the moment) Chieftains that can ensure that a Warlord’s word is law and that he has a paw in all profitable ventures. These commanders are more powerfully built than the warriors they ruthlessly command, using their advantage to claw their way to promotion. In reality, mere physical prowess is not enough to sustain control without manipulation; the ability to set rivals upon each and muster support are skills needed to keep hold of power, as even the fiercest fighters become worn down by the constant challenges of Skaven life.
Attributes[ | ]
- Melee Specialist
- ▲ Armoured: Armoured units can block damage from any source apart from Armour-Piercing damage.
- ▲ Armour-Piercing: The damage of armour-piercing weapons mostly ignores the armour of the target, making them the ideal choice against heavily-armoured enemies. They are often heavier and attack at a slower rate though, making them less efficient against poorly-armoured targets.
- ▲ Anti-Large: Anti-Large: Anti-large units have an advantage against targets that are at least as large as a horse. This advantage can be a damage bonus against large targets or an attack that focuses on a very small area. However, some units are simply better against large targets because their attacks are slow and easy to dodge by skilled melee combatants.
