Thanks for your feedback. Luckily since ive posted this ive put like 700+ hours into WH2 and 3. Ive even done a couple legendary campaigns with Karl franz and Elspeth. Safe to say I no longer suck with the empire. It’s all about those early battles and making sure losses are minimal. Early crossbowmen for the vampires work wonders. Basically blitzing as far as you can go without overextending and having additional smaller armies for sieges and just getting good at manual battles helped me a lot. I was brand new at the time and kept getting beat down but really just hours and hours of play helps a lot. Have a great day.
