They are stronger than the average soldier. Whether powerful enough to take on a regiment on his own or not, the trade will be more painful if he's taking blows left and right. Just look at the giant being swarmed by slayers and one can see what might happen to a surrounded hero. That they do better when supported than when on their own. Now this is of course a lot of speculation since we don't know just how powerful a hero can become or how weak they are when they start out and so, but I think we can safely assume a few things: Pounce on vulnerable units where foes can't hit back with other units or perhaps even use them as flying chariots or elephants to pounce on already engaged foes and shock them to break and flee? While flying on flying duels look cool, I bet you only want to have those if you're the stronger party, if you're the weaker you can probably keep the flier back under the cover of your ranged units?īut what of heroes mounted on a mere destrier? Or even on foot? How to use them? On a pegasus, dragon, griffon or whatever, they seem pretty obvious. Now if they're mounted on some big monster, it's a bit different. Keep the safe at the rear with the ability to hit the enemy and let them attack. So I don't think it's been discussed all that much, beyond people worrying them being picked off at range.but anyone got any tactics they have considered for their melee heroes?īecause magic and ranged heroes are somewhat obvious on the battlefield. 2K A Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia.844 A Total War Saga: Fall of the Samurai.
