This is a re-upload to fix the crackly audio. I apologize and know what settings to use to reduce it in the future.
Not gonna lie, at first I thought it was my old-arse speakers finally croaking.
Good to know that wasn't the case. :P
@@FiendMatadorSlayerOfNoobs LOL just so you know I thought the same thing
Gona watch it a second time because it was good enough the first time =D
Great vid mate!
You rock
Sex
Figures the first video was just a decoy.
Was it half lengh of the original?
@@Lazymindflayerwithcofffee half the sound too
Malekith: "What are you? President of his fan club?"
Cody: "No. That would be your mother..."
,,So you better listen up edge king, or p*rnography staring your mom and your 3 mortal enemys wouldn,t be the worst thing to happen to you"
@@Lazymindflayerwithcofffee To be fair, Malekith would probably be turned on by porn of his mom...
god i love tf2 memes
“And now he’s here to f$&@ us!
Alith’s voiced by Zach, not Cody.
(seinfeld bass)
"Villain, I hath done thy mother!"
As far as why they cast Dylan to play him, my understanding is he basically just showed up and asked nicely to voice his favorite character. Apparently he religiously played the original Medieval 2 mod. Very based.
That is absolutely amazing. I did not expect Dylan to be a gamer but has the respect on my book.
And he did such a damn good job too! He sounds exactly like I imagined Alith Anar to sound!
At least that's what was said in a video before the FLC came out.
He visited the studio, they were working on Alith Anar, he asked if he could dub Alith, they agreed.
I watched the video 3 or 4 times after it came out. I couldn't wait to play as him in the campaign, that's my favorite Warhammer character
Alith Anar has also written the greatest letter in all Warhammer history:
Dear Morathi, I lived b*tch.
Sincerely, Alith Anar, the Shadow King.
...the thing that died was my decoy
I love him
This man's hatred for Druchii is so powerful, his abstract concept can deal physical damage.
thats just his stand
Alith Anar's story is even more tragic once you learn that he witnessed his own father be melted down to goo by a black dragon, had to abandon a rescue mission for his grandfather due to a plot by Morathi to torture said grandfather, and find the rest of his family hunted down, tortured and massacred. Another badass thing after the elvish civil war Alith Anar declared Nagarythe as an independent kingdom as its king due to how the other elves treated his people and although the land he claims is barren wastelands the fact no one has challenged him on this still speaks volumes.
4:45 Fun fact, they look and act like Dark Elves because they most likely are: as the number of Nagarythe loyalist was always small, Alith Anar and his men tend to kidnap Dark Elf children in their raids, then they brainwash them and train them to become new Shadow Warriors. So there is the chance that some Druchii parents were killed by their own sons.
That's pretty metal...
I mean that's what a normal druki would do anyway
To be fair the only real difference between dark elves and high elves is cultural
To be fair, it's not like they wouldn't kill them if they weren't kidnapped...
Alith's crew and the Dark Elves both originated from Nagarythe, so they look similarly different from other elves, like dark hair.
After the line at 9:23, you realize you are now legally required to do the next Noob's Guide on Grombrindal. Also the Sideshow Bob growl for Malekith was brilliant.
It make me absurdly happy you recognized that growl. I gave it a bit of echo to make it sound like it was coming from inside his helmet.
@@codybondsare you planning on eventually do ALL of the legendary lords?
I am convinced that Malekith wasn’t even mad when he walk in on his mother chained naked to her bed, just tire that it had become a regular occurrence, asked what they stole this time and did her partner/s wear protection.
Just asking in what orifice she put the keys in this time
Mind you, there is also a instance were N'kari implies to Malekith that he had slept with Morathi many times and that he was a product of that. Also, Morathi basically forced herself on Tyrion so I just find it absolutely hilarious that 3 of Malekith's biggest enemies all boned his mother. LOL
4*
Because Malekith is his own biggest enemy.
I think malikath at this point is like "the level of hate I feel to you cannot be describe, my armour is compressed with a thousand metal plates, if I was able to describe my hate to you compare to each single metal plate then the number of it would be tripled for I feel nothing to you but simple hatred, I will kill you one day, I tell you this because I want you to know that when I come to kill you, there will be nothing you can do to deter my pure, cold, apathetic hate for you"
Malekith is not concerned with his mother's sexsual activities. He knows very well, that is is a component of her power and manipulation, and no canon source have he be mad/angry about it.
Note that he isnt joking about the Shadow Warriors basically being the hillbillies of Nagarythr. The original black arks were the former cities of Nagarythe. In addition, as one last spiteful middle finger, most of Nagarythe would during the sundering be sent directly to the bottom of the sea. Whats left was the hinterlands.
Basically, the only Nagarythi left were the ones who were the most isolated from the rest of their home kingdom's society because the other loyalists were either murdered pre-civil war, murdered during the civil war, or were murdered by suddenly having their home thrown into the sea. The Hillbillies are all that is left. A major consequence of this is that they barely have any arable land left. Worse, what land they DO have they have to share with the Druchii because Malakith loves to constantly send yet another group of Druchii to recolonize Nagarythe.
They cant even reliably substain themselves off of fishing because being the primary target of the Druchii means that they basically dont have any ability to maintain a decent fishing fleet. In many ways, all that the Nagarythi have left is their war against the Druchii. Their economy has been ruined by constant Druchii raids, their land forever destroyed by Druchii Spite, their People almost all dead by Druchii Hands or are Druchii....
They have nothing left but war, hate, and spite.
by rights Druchii see that land as rightfully there's because in essence they are the same ethnic group from orginally the Kingdom Nagaarythe. Any one to oppose Malakith is considered a traitor to the rightful king
@@michael3088 and a Ally to mankind aka the murder apes everyone fucks with until suddenly the murder apes begin to murder ape and only the orks and khorne find this hilarious and keep at it everyone else stands a hundred miles from the blood bath that inevitably happens everytime mankind somehow through some sort of probably malal/malice bullshit planery mankind unifies completely and all hell breaks loose
Using Galadriels speech at the beginning of the Fellowship is a nice touch
I knew someone would recognize it.
I thought Alith boning Morathi to get revenge on Malekith was just a Tariff meme, not actual lore! 🤣
So if Eltharion is the batman of this world, then Alith Anar is the punisher
Alith Anar: The Nagarythi who loved me
The best part for me is Alith Anar during the End Times. He's just running around trolling Malekith AND Tyrion
The funniest part of this video for me was when you said Malekith fled to Naggarond to where there's no trees within bow range
and Malekith's turn 1 battle is in a forest map 😂
High Elf Skaven for the win!
Nothing like a faction with some of the best missile infantry, vanguard deployment and potential for 100% ambush success chance! 😁
And his underground stance is un-interceptable. Its honestly disgusting how busted Nagarythe is. A shame they only have 2 types of green terrain
@@JarmamStuff they had to balance them somehow I suppose 🤷♂
When people bitch at CA and the things they do I always remember that Alith Anar is free and the most powerful sub faction of a powerful race.
Also he was one of the few characters that got a pretty decent time during the End Times. Nearly killed Malekith and actually killed Tyrion (who had the sword of Khaine). Even got to see Morathi get vored by Slaanesh
Why would he kill the high elf king Tyrion?
@@steffent.6477 Tyrion had taken the Sword of Khaine and was slaughtering thousands elves. Grombrindal would have loved Tyrion. This is End Times stuff
@@matthewanderson3235 The sword drove him mad or was there some kind of civil war between the high elfes?
@@steffent.6477 reccomend you just read the end times for Tyrion on the Wiki
@@steffent.6477 Basically, high elves realised that Malekith was the true phoenix king from the start and as you can imagine, Tyrion and some others didn't like that idea.
This audio is perfect for my elvish ears. Thanks dad.
Your re-uploading made me question my sense of time and reality
There is no end to a sentence that causes your villain cred to vanish quite like "and his mom"
Alith did a Titus Andronicus and told Malekith he has done his mother.
And yet, in the End Times, he shot Tyrion instead of Malekith. Right in the rent in Tyrion's armour created by Imrik's Starlance.
Wait, Imrik and Alith Anar ganged up on Tyrion?
@@JaySwag77 From what I vaguely recall, Tyrion was holding widowmaker aka khaines sword aka Violence incarnate.
Or at least that's what I heard happened with tyrion during the end times.
@@nonya1366tbf to Tyrion, if my daughter was kidnapped, my king was killed in his own bed, was told that my arch-nemesis (who has killed untold numbers of Asur) is actually the true legitimate king, see Imrik turn his dragons against his own kind in favour of Malekith, and find out that my own brother orchestrated my daughter’s kidnapping and subsequent sacrifice to bring NAGASH back, I’d take up the Sword of Khaine too
@@horsenuggets1018 😳
@@JaySwag77 Yeah.
Tyrion had been corrupted by Morathi, and took up the Sword of Khaine, Just like Aenarion did during the Coming of Chaos.
He led a combined Asur and Druchii force against a combined Asur, Druchii, and Asrai force led by Malekith, and lost. Alith Anar had stayed out of it until the very last battle, where he fired one single shot before disappearing again, and he aimed that shot at Tyrion, not Malekith.
Ulthuan during the End Times was a crazy place to be.
As a West Virginian man I salute Knoxville for sharing our resistance to the confederacy! We're the only state that exists as a middle finger to the confederacy, leaving Virginia after it left the Union. Alith Anar also gets my seal of approval for being the closest thing Warhammer has to John Brown.
Tennessee is a weird state as well- I believe the state was confederate but the people were all for the union. (Most of the people)
The Punisher seaked vengeance for the crackling sound.
Alith Anar 2: Electric Boogaloo
So, who else remembers Eltharion's video when Cody called Alith "Hawkeye or Green Arrow or one of the other random, useless bow guys"?
That was great. I expected a "dry" army composition and bonuses video, but there were so many nice details and a lot of backstory for him... really nice. I immediately have to start a new campaign. Also hearing the lotr intro always gets me goosebumps.
Great video! Thanks for making it!
Great video! Fun to watch and great lore info too
Came here for the warhammer lore, and was left with a neat little piece of history I never knew about, nice (the segment around 3: 20 ish)
Man i love these Noobs Guide, they made me more interested into the game! By any chance will you make a guide about Da Great Green Prophet?
Basically elf John Brown
Let off some steam, Morathi. -Alith Anar, probably
Dylan Sprouse is a hardcore Warhammer fan and the number 1 choice to play Felix in a live-action Gotrek & Felix adaptation.
Thanks for fixing the audio. Second watch was great.
If Eltharion is High Elf Batman, then who is Alith Anar? Because he's basically the same, just with less interrogation and more outright murder.
And Alith Anar is so awesome! Vengeful guerrilla fighters who are basically the boogymen for Dark Elves. So edgy yet so cool. He is such a chad, especially with what he did to Morathi that one night.
Alith Anar is The Punisher.
@@codybonds That is brilliant! I love it!
No, no. Alith Anar is The Red Hood.
@@cerberus6400 The Red Hood was a batling once. Alith was crucifying, capturing, brainwashing and enslaving Dark Elf children while the Red Hood was still pulling his punches cuz 'murder is wrong' smh
So who’s Robin these days?
0:06 Yah man!
Finally, some good content
his elgi parents really named him “a leaf”
I feel like malekith reaction would be:
Kouran darkhand(captain of the black guard): "sire sire, I have just received news about your mother"
Malekith:"what is it Kouran?"
Kouran: "it says that alith anar has layed with tho mother"
Malekith: " ok...".
Kouran: "you dont seem to bother sire"
Malekith: "she sleeps with everyone kouran, and i do mean everyone... she even try to sleep with me, stupid w***e"
Kouran: "it aslo says he stole the stone of midnight"
Malekith (stands up slams his hands on his thorne turns so angry his armour goes from black to hot molten red): "KHAINE DAMM IT, SHE HAD ONE F****NG JOB, BUT NO SHE JUST HAVE TO CLIMB THE MOUNTAIN, GET ME EVERY GUARDSMEN, EXCUTIONER AND COLD BLOODED KILLER WE ARE GOING TO FIND THAT HIGH ELF AND GET MY DAD STONE BACK, aagghh i swear i have to do everything myself... he already gone isnt he"
Kouran: "yes... sire?"
Malekith: "rally the troops i might just need a campaign to make me feel better"
i never thought i'd hear a word so much since i heard of the space wolfs but this dude really made the word shadow sound weird from so much repetition.
It does lose all meaning after a while. Speaking of, I heard Kislev likes bears.
@@codybonds oh!? Are you talking about the dude that looks like a bear, rides a bear, has bear cavalry, worships a bear god,... Bear,... Bear,...bear,...bear,...bear,...bear?
Ps: i no longer even know what a bear is after this comment. Is it a pear? Maybe a tear...
Damn that nut-to-engine analogy brought back memories of my first car. RIP my 96 sea green ford thunderbird
Suite Life of Alith Anar 😎
Hello @codybonds , can you plz make a noobs guide to archaon the everchosen? Thanks!
Great vid! Also what mod did you use to change his banners color?
Guv’s Nagarythe. Why CA went with poo brown I’ll never guess. steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2856496444&searchtext=
New song coming for Alith Anar - Hey Mrs Morathi.
Ok so i know this isn’t a Lord but could you do a Video of Harry Hammerstorm?
John Brown's body lies a-moldering in the grave
But his soul goes marching on
"Yo mama" which is not a joke but a fact
I thought that was Celebrimbor for a moment and Alith Anar one of his skills
Heres hoping for a noob's guide to Durthu
Funniest thing you can do in his campaign is confederate Tyrion and get him a Sword of Khaine, ambush nuke.
Can we get a Noobs guide to Throgg
aye his mother was a dwarf they say... but that was put in the book so its still somewhat ambiguous as to whether or not its true. as a side note I wonder how many of malikiths enemies would be dead if morathi was for nurgle instead?
So he's Frank Castle but with a bow? I can dig it.
The way you pronounce his name is unique. Ive heard the "li" pronounced like Malekith's, but never like "A-Leeth".
Like Al - eth?
Ith, like how Mike Tyson says Kiss
“Ah-Leeth” is how I’ve always pronounced it, and the first time I heard someone say “Ah-Lith” I was very confused.
who is next Karl Franz, Thorgrim, Ungrim, Grombrindal, Grimgor, Wurzag, Azhag, Mannfred, Vlad, Heinrich, Archaeon, Sigvald, Malagor, Morghur, Orion, Durthu, Drycha, Louen, Alberic, Enchantress, Tyrion, Teclis, Allariele, Mazdamundi, Malekith, Morathi, Hellebrone, Lokir, Skrolk, Tretch, Khatep, Khalida, Noctilus, Arenessa, Cylostra, Katarin, Kostaltyn, Zhao or Demon Prince of Kislev?
What are your thoughts on listening to GBoGs interview with Rich and gleaming and interpreting useful info out of it that’s not an hour 20 long?
Ostankya. Likely more dragons on the way. Tamurkhan is a shoe in. Nagash will be last big DLC.
@@codybonds where did the more dragons part come from? I"m not doubting you just gathering info
-Sneaked to enemy base
-Banged His enemies mom
-Robbed jewelries
-Get's away with it
🗿
Shadow boi time!
Can you do a dwarf character? Like the white dwarf?
I’ve done Thorek Ironbrow and Belegar previously. Patrons vote on which of these older lords come next:
I doubt they fled because of him. They probably left because the province was ruined by war and a ritual.
That’s certainly what they told anyone that asked. But I bet they still checked their closets for Alith every night before going to bed.
@@codybonds most likely XD
@@dnaseb9214 "We had to leave! We were... uh... out of... jam? Yes, jam! As soon as we get some we'll come back and win, totally!"
Thanks for another noobs guide again
It saddens me to see the views for Noob's Guides are getting lesser and lesser. I am reminded of my lost brothers and sisters out there.
This one is exceptional. I uploaded it and got 40k views then had to pull it down and reupload to fix an audio issue which reset it to zero. But generally, yeah, Warhammer 3 hasn’t had the same level of interest as 2 for players based on Steam stats and views here.
Boned his mom and stole his Xbox? That's an NTR revenge hentai plot right there.
knowing all 3 old elf roberts and ghost
Neat
We didn’t even mention his snipe of all snipes in the end times he literally killed Tyrion and just to cuck malekieth he sniped him as well didn’t kill him but he did it just to do it
before watching this vid, i thought this guy was just a Elrond knock off, also how did he even survive boning Morathi?
I would assume Warhammer has magical penicillin. Also, maybe he’s just a ghost. A very talented ghost according to Morathi.
This was SHORT!!
Where are the other wood elves
Third time’s the charm
Is there still something wrong with it?!
@@codybonds Nope! Not this time. GJ!
Thanks for coming back to watch it again!
It takes bravery to spend the night with a Slaaneshi cultist.
Hahaha Knoxville represent!!!
Alith basically turned the Witch-King into the Bitch-King.
Huh. For once im proud of my hometown. Damn.
I visit Knoxville every month or so. Hobby Town is my go to place for mini painting supplies.
@@codybonds Well this is... Unexpected. Love your videos man. I'm glad my town gives you something of worth.
ah ALITH ANAR's giant head
It’s hard to unsee once you notice it.
i think the reason why you thought your poop saying was a common thing is because you confused it with "you can't play with fire without getting burned"
It must be the local version of that saying.
Was annoyed he wasn't a horde character, he just became a generic high elf lord, I think SFO gave him some flavour but it's still bland, eh just a bit salty one of the more interesting high elves got the basic bitch treatment.
I guess he was FLC so, you get what you pay for.
Ya I remembered being hyped to get him when we did… but upon seeing Eltharion’s campaign, I realized that the price that was paid
😂
Zack without Cody
How dare you kink shame the worst high elf lord ever.
am i the only one who thinks his head looks way to big, compared to the rest of his body? 🙈
Once you know, you can’t unsee it.
First
Probs the worst elf leg leader to play, terrible campaign, terrible starting location, terrible progression.
Lol you tripping. Teclis is right there. This guy is fun. He’s basically a normal high elf but he gets an actual thing to do to get more influence and plenty of enemies to fight. It’s great, simple and snappy.
@@Tortle-Man Also Skaven ambush stance, and Skaven underground stance except nobody can intercept it ever. For all his lords. He is like the High Elf version of Ikit Claw, its gross and I love it
I hate the A-leaf pronunciation. A-liff Anar is just superior lol
