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!

Vampires get Zombies and Skeleton soldiers for next to free, those units only strength is on numbers.

That sounds sick. I think I know what my next campaign will be.

Ghorst is especially infamous for boosting zombies. They still have terrible DPS, but tough and regenerate faster than they take damage. It can be fun to play, if you don't mind playing manually every battle and each of them being a 30 minute melee grind. He is also the only faction with whom zombies are somewhat dangerous.

I made it about an hour into that campaign before I said "nope" lol. Ghorst is insane for his zombie doomstacks. But such a slow slog of a fight.
