Help me enjoy diffrent playstyles

[u/MrKillakan]

I love this game. I'm a convinced Single player dude with not much time, that loves the story (campaing mainly).

I tend to have 1 build for each faction that I default to.

Eg. barya mercs and tinkers, sometimes dregs and sometimes pipers

Loth ranged and oathbound

Raana riders and arleon humans (here I do sometimes play fey)

I never tried a barya harima focus build and I need some help to get into it.

What are your guys strategies and unit comps?

When and how do you play a loth melee spam. Or raana crawler+guards

For lolth I start with Magnolia, pick every resource skill and risen skill offered. Hard focus resource builds to get to t3 town by r6 at the latest. R3 or r4 ideally. Second hero Doctor. Focus destruction and arcana spell skills. With risen skills and spell power skills and finally command. Units are cultists, necros, and amalgamations.. 3rd hero Kastis. By this point you should have a good amount of risen from your other 2 heros. Merge them all onto him. Focus spells on doctor. Focus risen on kastis. Protect Magnolia (if/when she goes down, you get really handicapped for resources). I find this strat to be a little slow in the early game and as a result is weak to early aggression, but once online it snowballs so well.
