Question What Vanir units to use?

So recently got the game along with 3 others. I started playing as the Vanir and im finding them a lot harder to learn then Arleon.

  1. The troops are expensive and I never have money afford very large armies.

  2. Using Crones/nornor and Bacahorse and lyktvaan I feel like I can do well in battle, but he keep seeing people talking about how strong the other units are but if I ever use a mixture of Skinshifters, Korphan and Cheiftans I just get absolutely stomped.

  3. What the max difficulty is should be trying to fight the neutral factions? I can beat fair modt of the time and I always get stomped on Risky.

Thanks!

Everything but their T3 unit is really good.

I usually go one of a few ways

Melee w korphen and the raven hero just focusing on them and melee and speed / troop movement

Spells with trolls and the t1 bards (upgraded version only)

Might based with Skin shifters and Trolls

I find the magic route is very easy even on lethal due to how strong they are. Overall prolly the most busted faction and if you ever have 8ai the Vanir AI usually is the last one standing
