			== Gameplay ==

			Out of all non-Chaotic legendary lords, Kostaltyn is quite easily the worst one, especially in the main campaign. Unlike Russian Elsa to the south, you start right at the doorstep of Troll Country and Norsca, which means that you'll have to fight dem vikings. A lot. [[God-Slayer]], [[Ku'Gath]] and [[Skarbrand]] are also pretty close. Another problem is that Kostaltyn's campaign revolves around weaker units that can't survive [[Realms of Chaos]], thus making soul-claiming stuff incredibly hard. Combining this with a lack of unigue units and/or buffs to make your army even stronger means that no one really wants to play as Kostaltyn, preferring Katarin or Boris. A shame.
