Editing Skarbrand (section)

==Total War Warhammer==

Skarbrand appears in the third game, representing the Exiles of Khorne faction, the first Khornate faction in the game. The Advisor visits him and SOMEHOW manages to convince Skarbrand of all people to spare him in exchange for guidance to Ursun. Skarbrand plans to take the god bear's skull to earn Khorne's forgiveness. His faction is the most overpowered of all the Five Daemon factions! Even a bare Skarbrand is already strong, but with the right skills, his unique items (and some more) he can become a one-daemon doomstack of a RAPE-TRAIN WITHOUT BRAKES.

Your faction effects let you replenish outside of your borders and gain movement for every victory. You can take over the map much faster than Taurox!!!

You do have to deal that you have a diplomatic malus with all the other Khornate factions, but this is fair, considering it's the bad boy of the family. And a family fight to the death is mandatory and only mildly more aggresive than most family gatherings.

Hilariously, his item quest event involves him coming to terms with 2 Khornate armies to ambush a Nurglite army, only for Skarbrand to grow bored and attack his allies while they were waiting in ambush. And of course you have to also deal with the Nurglite army on your own.

His unique skill tree gives him a debuff that gives rampage to nearby units, some buffs and the ability to heal while he is in melee.

The Realms of Chaos campaign start is in the western part of the Chaos Wastes. You have minor Chaos factions on all sides, and you will meet N'kari early on the campaign. After defeating him, the world is your oyster, since once Skarbrand gets going, there are few things that can stop his rampage, and none of them are near him. Kislev is one such faction, so be mindful of the south. In the Immortal Empires campaign, Skarbrand starts in the Badlands, with a lot of opponents to choose from. You are close to Settra, Karaz-a-Karak, Wurrzag, Queek, Mannfred, you name it. It's like Skarbrand died and went to heaven. You have Malagor near you for a potential ally.

A little fun thing, in total war if you choose to engage in diplomacy with Skarbrand, for a raging daemon who hates everything he is remarkably civil and “calm”. Which is pretty funny when compared to the exalted Bloodthirster, who (unlike Skarbrand) shouts at you in all caps!
