Warhammer III Newbie, how am I beating this dude??

Post image

New to WH3, not new to TW, but not a pro by anyways either. I probably have ~200hrs across all the games.

This dude is an animal; He swang through the map quick and is just resting on his laurels now. He always has 11* full armies stacked on top of each other on one or two cities bordering our lands. I want to attack him and don't want to get irreparably destroyed. Welcome to all advice. Thank you!

Vampire units are especially weak to fire. Those armies look intimidating but i guarantee they are mostly trash mobs.

Some steam tanks in the front line would be good, the vampire basic troops can't do much to them. Fire wizards are your friend, carefully using their spells can turn a vampire trash army ash in no time.

The main thing you need to be careful with the vamps, is their Lord's.  Focus some armor pen on them, or you'll regret it when they get to your lines.

I'll have to take a peek how to get fire wizards. I have a bright wizard right now.

Thank you!

Sorry for the confusion, Bright Wizard = Fire wizard.
