In the Gotrek & Felix novels, it's mentioned early on that they use bear fat to keep the crest up. That said, once you clap your first troll, I can definitely see the switch being more effective.
If you cast Rune of Speed and overcast it on the same area those Slayers will be very fast. You get 10% speed from the tech tree, 10% from faction effect. That means that you're supposed to play an offensive melee focused style with them. There's tons of melee attack buffs you can stack into the same AOE of the Rune of Speed. Blobbing is very good with Slayers in this faction.
Yeah Slayers whole thing is dying in battle against the enemies of their race redeems any dishonor. Dwarves shamed for whatever reason be it crimes or happenstance can take the slayer oath, and redeem themselves by seeking death in battle. the trick is it has to be a worthy death, you can't just commit sudoku. Has to be in a fight against an enemy of the dwarven race, which is why most go out and pick dangerous monsters like Trolls or Giants. (Un?)lucky/Successful slayers progress further and further up the chain of 'random dangerous shit', to dragons and even demons. Because of the way dwarven honor works, dying with stained honor harms all of your ancestors in the afterlife, so this is important. At the same time, because the way dwarven honor works, it's also batshit mental. Ungrim is a slayer for reasons absolutely nobody remembers - all anyone knows is at one point one of his ancestors did a bad thing and the family line has been stained by that dishonor since - no one knows what it is. But because they're also the line of Kings, Ungrims ancestors have been unable to fulfill the slayer oath of dying in battle (taken by each successive generation) because of their competing responsibilities to govern and protect their hold. There is, iirc, a very tragic story where Ungrims son takes the slayer oath and dies in order to free his father from this burden, by acting as the kings champion. He dies killing a Chaos Giant during storm of chaos, but Ungrim is so distraught after his son's death *HE RETAKES THE SLAYER OATH* to avenge himself on the forces of Chaos because he can't let the death of his son go unavenged. On the bright side, the souls of his ancestors are freed from dwarven purgatory by the sacrifice.
So he vent Doomguy route in the Lore, fighting Chaos? MA pick Bonus VS Chaos skill for the amount of enemies, it affect, but, it is the choice that follows the Lore.
If you think dwarfs using troll fat for hair gel is bad; get this, one of the many reasons the empire is even in the lands of Neheckara (besides the British desire to pilfer artefacts of cultural importance) is because apparently mummies are a key ingredient in moustache wax ... god I love oldhammer lore sometimes
One reason they all might declare war on you is that they get a huge relationship bonus with every other faction on the map^^ united in hatred style of thing.
Mr. Abound, have you ever considered trying out the Warband Upgrade Ultimate mod? It'd be interesting seeing you upgrade thunderers to irondrakes or slayers to giant slayers, for instance. Plus it's a mod you can add or remove mid-campaign without any issues or so I've heard.
I’ll always love Slayers but the one thing I never did is the death-seeking over all. Kinda wish it was more seek a glorious death and major focus on the glory part. Also have it be the reason for fighting or doing dangerous things it will aid the Dwarfs. Like have it be I’m going to fight that monster not because it will kill me but it be glorious and a major aid to whole of the Dwarfs.
I like vids with no mods. You are great Mr. Monster's Abound. Hope you do a Daemon Prince IE campaign. Everyone hates him so I love the challenge personally

Mount Gunbad to Ungrim (and Thorgrim) is like Marienburg to Karl and Louen. And that brightstone mine; very good money, and only tier 3 required.
Inspiring leadership will make then even more kill machines. This is always a go 2 for me to help even further buff my units.
"Tiny naked orange haired people storming the city" almost spit out my water lol
Just wrapped up a short campaign as Ogres thanks to your Greasus campaign. Next I’m doing Total War as Taurox wish me luck!

Then there is Gotrek. Other Dwarfs think he's cursed. Because he is that good at killing things and that bad at dying.
it never occurred to me Dwarfs should attempt death by sudoku, so yours is a truly puzzling remark!
42:20 Now Thats going in the Book
A bit sad MA didnt pick Mixu's slayer mod for that campaign. Gettin a slayer hero and Slayer lord would have been pretty thematic.
holy moly, 1h 20 minutes the choas gods bless us today!
Dont forget the Master RUne of Spite for ungrimm

No one is sure why Zhufbar has bad relations with Dwarves in the game.
Zhufbar is the Engineer hold, too many liberals for their taste

I know this is super old and I’m not sure if you look at old ones but I just got into warhammer and I love the content man

1:02:35 Is it bad I could tell exactly which Monty Python reference you were going to make before you even finished saying the words Monty Python?
48: change that to sweet chocolate with salt chips on the side, then sure.
Wait do nasty skulkers not need to be winning for their buff to activate now?
Did they ever made the "At Journey's End" passive work for slayers in Ungrim's army? I know they've been bugged for ages.
i was just thinking the other day an ungrim playthrough would be good to see.

The correct pronunciation is ‘vase’ not ‘vase’ just to confirm good😊
My spirit...Goblin is Grom. I think. Either way, I can confirm he is still a lot of fun
5:05 same though
Honestly, after playing Naheulbeuk's dungeon and having to deal dwarves I can see why Ungrim took the slayer oath.
Would you prefer me to be a supporter on Patreon or on RUclips? Id like to see the full series as it comes out :)
Either works but I think Patreon is cheaper (I set both at minimum but youtube just charges more)
i thought you were talkiing about nachos not french fries with cheese XD
Jeremy, on his first day and all... F.
Should get the mod that allows you to craft a replenishement follower
Oh, it isn't troll fat they use. Did you think the gobbos call them trollz layers for no reason?
does youtube premuim count ?
there is 16x more detail mod for dwarfs. makes the game look more refresh for dwarfs
Soooooooo when are you doing a Legion Imperialis battle report? 😛
Oh god the amount of work that would take... I have thought about it but the time and effort required is herculean.
@@MonstersAbound but it would be a laugh
HELL yeah
Part 2??
I jacked up the price.
Supporters (Patreon or RUclips) get it as it comes, otherwise it'll be out after its finished
@@MonstersAbound:(
Should name some of ur heroes after the band slayer, like Kerry king
Nicee
dwarfs!
Aren't giant slayers supposed to be giant? They look like (short) Dwarfs to me
Dwarf warriors = fake slayers!
They're even wearing... *shudders* clothes...
@@MonstersAbound you've commented on my comment. I can die happy now :)
