Exploiting AI & Minor Factions

Tips for exploiting AI and utilizing minor factions in Total War: Warhammer II for strategic advantage.

The AI in Total War: Warhammer II can be predictable. The AI often prioritizes undefended settlements or armies. Use this to bait them into ambushes or draw them away from critical objectives. Minor factions, while weak, can be valuable. They can serve as buffer states, trade partners, or easy targets for early expansion. Don't underestimate their ability to declare war if you appear weak. Sometimes, paying a minor faction to declare war on a major rival can be a cost-effective way to distract them.

• AI Baiting: Lure AI armies into ambushes or away from objectives.
• Minor Factions: Use as buffer states, trade partners, or early expansion targets.
• Proxy Wars: Pay minor factions to declare war on your rivals.
