The very first video I saw on your channel was on the Nilfgaardian empire in the Witcher universe. Ever since then you have thrilled me with every video. Surprising me with information that I thought I would never know, to falling in love with alternate worlds that I thought I would not get into. But when you came you opened my eyes to enjoy the history behind amazing universe of all genres. But your style and the way that you present it is what gives it a feeling of it being real and that is amazing. Please. Keep up the amazing work. To the Templin Institute, I am with you all the way!!!
There's something great about Warhammer's Vampires. Not strictly dead (as many are in other settings) but still haunted by the creation of their kind and the darkness simply existing causes around them, they're often sympathetic to a degree despite slowly twisting into something less than human... monsters made of men whose hearts still beat and souls still suffer. They can be noble, they can be selfless, they can even be heroes sometimes, but there is no ultimate redemption or recovery for them. Only the cold darkness of eternal and creeping isolation or a bittersweet release in final death. They beat the hell out of the Kindred (for instance), and I say that as someone who thinks World of Darkness kinda gets "real-world" Vampires *right*.
Know this: these descriptive fantasy narrations like Skavenblight or about the Dark Elves, including this one are the best i ever heard. Its excellent for letting the thoughts drift to strange and unknown realms of fiction.
Count Noctilus : I wonder, Harkon, can you live with this? Can you condemn an innocent man, a friend, to a lifetime of servitude in your name while you roam free? Luthor Harkon :Yep. w're good with it.
one day a convoy of eldar ships transporting tons of garlic sunk in a storm close to the "Vampire Coast". The raging sea pushed the wrecked ships and their cargo toward the "Vampire Coast". Next morning the region's name was changed. Now it is just "Coast".
I'm new to Warhammer, but so far I love it! One thing that's been bugging me however: what are the rules for vampires like? How come Manfred can walk around during the day in total Warhammer? Is it cause he has a pure bloodline or can they all do that?
A bit late, but here's the deal. No, Vampires can't go out in the sun in Warhammer, but some can use magic to hide them from the sun for a short time. Total war Warhammer is not canon so don't think to much about it
Direct sunlight will generally destroy vampires, but a thick cloud covering or heavy clothing (e.g. a fully-concealing cloak with a hood) is enough to protect them. Vampire armies march to war under "darkling skies" as they're called, i.e. a supernaturally heavy cloud covering that protects the vampires from the sun. This varies though, and some vampires can tolerate the sun more or less. But yes, vampires can be and often are active during daytime in Warhammer, and will even go out into the sunlight in some cases (though it's obviously much more risky as clouds can be cleared via magic and heavy clothing can be torn away). Otherwise, the weaknesses of the vampire vary a lot and it's mostly random upon their transformation. Some are vulnerable to holy symbols, some aren't. Some cast reflections, some don't. Some will be damaged by running water, some won't be. Warhammer has witch hunters who, even with their training/knowledge, cannot reliably detect vampires they're standing directly in front of, if that gives you any idea as to how hard they can be to spot. The most reliable weakness they have is silver weapons, though. Silver weapons bite deeply into the vampire's normally supernaturally resistant flesh. Doesn't burn on contact, but a silver dagger will cut into a vampire the way a steel dagger would into a human (whereas a steel dagger will perhaps shallowly cut a vampire). There is no concept of "purity" in Warhammer vampires. It's not like World of Darkness where each generation is less powerful than the last. Mannfred is quite powerful because he's rather old and has traveled the world seeking magical knowledge. But he's not really any 'more' Von Carstein than Cleetus Von Carstein, the stable hand Bubba Von Carstein turned one night for kicks.
Vlad: There are only so many sentient Bampires we can rely upon. Mannfred: What about Luthor Harkon? Vlad: Can you really call Luthor Sentient? Luthor: NNNNNNOOOOOOO!!! Vlad: See? Luthor: IMMA PIRATE!!
Brilliantly done guys. And What's the name of the narrator if I may ask? She did an amazing job on all of her warhammer40k videos too. My favorite is her tribute to the Astra Militarum and the realm of Ultramar. Beyond perfection!
I have to admit that I love that you guys are doing more videos on Warhammer Fantasy, but for Sigmar’s sake the only major faction you did are the Dark Elves! Why not make the Empire, they are in my opinion the best faction in Fantasy.

So much great lore replaced by a board game

I found them through stellaris Invicta and have never looked back. Got stellaris just to make my own space empire and have made a great one!
Wait, hang on. Warhammer has zombie pirates led by a vampire captain? Why am I now just hearing about this?!
@Maria Kelly Wrong Warhammer mate.
@@MaylocBrittinorum He is everywhere, you can't escape him
Probably cause this stuff got retconned out by GW to make Age of Sigmar.
I really hope the Vampire Coast gets added to the Old World game. That would be amazing.
love how you're actually saying it like you're telling a horror story
Why do I watch Templin Institute.
[ ] Because I care about the content being covered.
[X] Because Larissa's narration is awesome.
Why not both?
Charles Lathrop...wait a minute...
Does that mean that you didn’t watch the video on the Imperium because you cared ?

Yes! More Warhammer Fantasy, and I don't mean the Age of Sigmar crap!
Awesome as always can you guys consider doing one on nagash since he makes the dark elves look like saints

The templin institute is the place to be, love your star wars videos, my favourite is First Order, i practically listen to it everyday.
So keep up the good work.
There's a vampire lord in Skyrim named Harkon too, and he too has a castle in an island. Is that a coincidence?
Probably a ester egg
Yeah come to think about it his name might be a reference.
I've got a jar of dirt!
"We'll find the beast, kill the beast, resurrect the beast, and rule the waves"

Superb! Much as I've got a soft spot for the Asur, I'll take anything Warhammer-related from you guys.
Also BIONICLE - but you know that already.
Why is the rum gone?
Yes! The rum is gone....
Why is the rum always gone
Because you drink it faster than you steal it?

We take our loot, but don't get old!
vampire coast & tomb kings
Thank you. I appreciate warhammer fantasy lore
Wife: Vampire Coast... Sounds like great place for our vacation.
Me: I bet you it'll suck. But it will make for you I guess.
You guys should cover the War of the Beard. Such a tragic event.
I just realized , the Silent Mary and Flying Dutchman from pirates of the carribbean would do great in here
Lord Harkon rules the seas!
I was never interested in this but your video was still highly enjoyable
Vlad: There are only so many sentient Bampires we can rely upon.
Mannfred: What about Luthor Harkon?
Vlad: Can you really call Luthor Sentient?
Luthor: NNNNNNOOOOOOO!!!
Vlad: See?

Great video as always.
P.S Really hope you do some Age of Sigmar videos sometime.
Thank you 🙏

Jeeze, what could scare a vampire lord so badly that he loses his mind in terror?
Digging your Warhammer content, any chance more is coming with Game 3?

Luthor Harkon has to be the worst vampire you have ever heard of.....
But you have heard of him
Do the Robotech Expeditionary Force and the Macross fleets. Like the Frontier or Battle 7
This is unexpected but nonetheless loved and appreciated.
We need the Empire!
HAIL THE MIGHTY!!
Atlas is the best series
Could you guys please make a video on Oceania of 1984? Or The City of Yharnam of Bloodborne
So let me get this straight...there are vampire pirates in the warhammer universe...I’m loving this universe more and more.
Too bad GW abandoned it with a "it all blew up" instead of a cliffhanger.
Some call them... Vampirates.
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum for yer thoughts!! Heehee.
please do kingdom of hyrule
Make a Video about the Tau Empire :)
MORE WARHAMMER FANTASY VIDEOS PLZ!!!
You need to make Necrons episode :D
Gentlemen, you will remember this as the day you ALMOST caught Captain Luthor Harkon!
That's Arch-Grand Commodore Luthor Harkon
could you do some future videos of the Pirate Lords of POTC, Organization XIII, Remnant (RWBY), and maybe the Battle of Yavin
Which game are the visuals from? Could someone please enlighten me? :)
Oh hey its notamerica
Can you do an episode on the umbrella corporation from resident evil
Perhaps do something from Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda
FORTUNE FAVOURS THE INFAMOUS!
You’d best start believing in ghost stories. You’re in one!
Basically they were vampire pirates.
Do Citadel Station from System Shock!
I like to see the Lizardman faction in Warhammer fantasy
With heartless blood suckers involved in amazed Marc could avoid making a "ex wife" joke
Moar warhammer! For the emperor!!
Next: Atlas: Yharnam from Bloodborne?
All will follow the Mad Captain Luthor Harkon to the Deep Sea Grave
anyone else read those young adult vampirates books back in the day?
Great
Me watching video while playing tww2, also me killing Luthor Harkon as clan pestilens
Oh, we’re the ghouls of the briny deep
Under the waves we like to creep
Sleeping in coffins with spider webs
As ghostly pillows beneath our heads
Oh, we’re the ghouls of the briny deep
Under the waves we like to creep
We wear black shrouds that look quite neat
We don’t own shoes ‘Cause we have no feet
We like to haunt and frighten and scare
Till you jump right out of your underwear
We like to eat eyes and brains
And drink dark rum from rusty drains
We don’t keep animals like cute sea snails…

Can you please do a video on Titan Fall 2
Hail Noctilus
Dumb question, and I'm sure it's been answered, but was it Atlas that won the contest? Lol cuz I voted for High Command. Lol

So are there vampires in the coast?
Vampire counts
