HTML-код

- A noob's guide to the Lore and intended gameplay style of Vilitch the Curseling, a playable legendary lord in Total War Warhammer 3. The Master of Misrule may just be a pink flesh tag hanging off his brother's back, but this parasitic twin is one of Tzeentch's greatest champions!

I fucking love Vilitch. Literally his entire story is just Tzeench going "lmao you know what would be funny"
I think that’s Tzeench’s philosophy to literally anything.
It was a joke for tzeench until the very end, considering how vilitch met his end
@@demomantf2986 That's why I think his death makes complete sense compared to most deaths in the end times, tzeentch was just "I'm bored so I'm gonna switch you both around to see what happens"
According to wiki :"Thinking himself lost forever, he suddenly found himself back within Tzeentch's realm. Confused as to why he was saved by his patron when he had not requested any aid, the answer was not to his liking. Vilitch's silent and brutish conjoined brother spoke for the first time in ages, revealing that it was he who had requested aid. Realising his peril too late, Vilitch's mind was wiped clean as his brother, so long subservient to his will, took control of the pair. "Vilitch" the Curseling was no more". Doesn't sound like Thommen was really in control for 30 years to me.
Yeah... a bit inaccurate, but in the end, Vilitch ended up the same way.
Yea I was kinda confused by it too, I was saying thomin must have really cared for his brother all along to just give him free control of his body for so long
Lets just agree that yhe end times arent canon and move on
@@bensagnella757 make me
@@bensagnella757 hi it's me "Amanda G." from youtube, i've been hacked so i'm posting from a second-account, just wanted to say that i agree
disregard anything the hacker said, or will say from my previous account
Vilitch: “Great Eagle I beseech you to grant me my brother’s strength”
Tzeentch: “U know what would b funny? Lmao. “
I like the meme potensial but i feel wird about him making it in swedish my nativ toung
Vilitch: *raises and shakes fist* TZEENTCH!!!!!
Tzeentch: cheese it!
Why? Why is Tzeentch so based?
he shouldve asked the Blood God instead lol
@@archaon2875 Couldn't. Vilitch knew and used Magic
Wait, I thought Thomen wasn't able to take control, but spent all those years praying to Tseenczh to allow him to take over, and eventually Tseenczh just decided "Lmao ok that sounds hilarious, let's do it" straight up trapping Vilitch in his own mind as Thomen got a switcheroo slapped on his brother.
yeah, it's debatable whether he was praying to Tzeentch all that time but it was definitely Tzeentch that did the final switcheroo after Thomin prayed to him to save him and Vilitch after Vilitch massively screwed up and was going to get the two of them trapped in a portal forever.
I could've sworn that Vilitch's fate in the end times was different. I thought he failed to take a city and asked Tzeentch for more power, and Tzeentch granted his request by putting Thomin back in control.
It was Thomin who prayed to Tzeentch, who then granted his request: that might not be the end of Vilitch's story though, because Tretchlets are awfully similar to the original Curseling, so who knows what manner of being he might have actually become...
"He was trying to beat the weak and pathetic out of him", ah the old norscan way of brotherhood, classic
When you play Miao Ying, this MFer quickly becomes a thorn in your backside. The worse is that you try to attack him and he just teleports around, while you waste a dozen turns trying to corner him... [Frustration]
this is why I installed the mod, that made the empire forts and the great bastion immune to teleport and underground stance.
Just as planned
And that’s why you play Zhao Ming instead cause I literally have all of Northern Cathay (even took over Lokhir) 😂
Man’s busted
@@king_fisherXX But then you aren't playing as the hot one! /s
@@vorgryn6909 Facts
As a Swede I was not expecting a Swedish prayer 😂It roughly checked out.
Bra med fruntimren och hängd som en häst….
Den delen var perfekt!
jag håller med
I did not expect the Swedish. For anyone curious the full prayer, in English, actually is:
"Oh, Great Bird Man in the Sky
Change my fate
Make my brother the Slave
Make me very stong
Good with the ladies
...and maybe hung like a horse?"
Fantastisk bön, 10/10. Kan inte förstå vad som gick fel... 🤣
Jag älskar den här kanalen.
@@Haruki2009 Jag med. Humorn resonerar med mig, och personen bakom verkar jävligt skön. :D
On the topic of the end times, while initially I thought of that twist as stupid, I just remembered, this is Tzeench we’re talking about. I think I’d be more surprised if he didn’t do something like give Torman the ability to take back over on a whim.
His brother was just buried deep down and Tzeech gave him back control on a whim. It was literally just a troll moment for Tzeech
Yep, literally god of TWEEST and backstabs. No surprise that he would have pulled a; maybe your brother won't fail me like you did, once Vilitch couldn't get shit done.
If anyone is aware of the power the Raven has, it's 100% Thormin.
One Cool Easter egg if you click on vilitch hero icon a lot in his menu during campaign he breaks the fourth wall and will tell you to stop clicking it
The swedish:
Oh, great bird man in the sky.
Change my fate.
Make my brother into the Slave.
And me very strong.
Good with the ladies(fruntimren old swedish for ladies relatively degrading) and maybe hung like a horse.
What's the background music called?
It's always an exciting day when we get a new Noob's guide!
Agreed
that comment that yoy won something is a scam right?
@@Cabrito11 Yes
What's the name of background music?
The swedish prayer💀💀💀
The changdhis you mean for they change and fuse everything and everyone including words lol
Yea! The Swedish version of the prayer were much better than the English translation. I guess the "make me hung like a horse" part did not manage to get past the censors. Among other things.
Vilitch and Thommen spend so much time together. They’re practically inseparable, and just can’t stand to be apart. Sibling goals.❤✨
Ironically, Vilitch was a key ally in my daemon prince campaign. I was honestly thinking of betraying him early on but then he kept winning, so I just went with it lmao
Viltch: praying to the changer of ways to change his fate.
Some comety boy: ♫ YOUNG MAN ♫
For those who don't know, both Vilitch and Kairos can both attack with the teleport stance and it triggers as an ambush. Making it very hard to get near the Great Bastion as he will just jump on an army getting to close and killing them.
That is ludicrously powerful
Honestly I love Vilich's end times lore, I find it a great twist of fate and something Tzeentch would do after Vilich fails one too many times and whines like a petulant child. I'm pretty sure Tommen was actually trapped as a prisoner in his own body and unable to actually do anything the whole time, though, but I might be misremembering it and all.
Regardless of that, the idea of Vilich becoming trapped in his own body and unable to do anything while Tommen takes control is satisfying, I don't know why but Vilich is super hateable as a character and I like seeing him get comeuppance for being a massive piece of shit throughout his lore
This. I find vilitch so despicable despite all the honestly worse people in warhammer, that when his brother takes control, it feels like such a cathartic ending haha.
@@Chonk_enthusiest Probably because the others have charisma and a fun design that makes them feel more like super villains, or casual monsters. Vilich is lying, cheating, a hypocrite, an asshole- and doesn't do anything remotely redeemable.
Personally I believe that Tommen was watching, learning, and always able to flip the script. He worshipped strength and knowledge, and many sorcerers require a lot of concentration to cast spells. Maybe Tommen saw the strength a wizard could have, and let Vilich think he was the one making the decisions when most of the big plans were Tommen's idea
I don't care what anyone say about the end time. I find it hilariously poetic that Thorim manage to get the upper hand and reverse uno Vilitch like the end of a 90's nerd turn villain flick where the jock gives him a wedgie before the credits starts rolling.
...I mean it does open up some questions about their characters motivation. If Thorim had conscience all along, why did he let his brother do this to him? Was there, deep inside him, the feeling of regret for all the abuse he gave to his brother? Did he learn to admire his leadership now that he has power? Is there a small glimpse of brotherly love inside his husk of a body? Did he start to regain control because he didn't want his brother to be used by tzeentch? Does Vilitch feel the same way now that their roles are reversed?
...Or the writers just pulled that bit out of their butt cause monkey paw logic is always funny so let's do it again this late in the story.
I haven't actually read it, but the way I interpret the whole thing is that Thorim's body was enslaved but not his mind, and he'd continuously pray to Tzeentch much the same way that Villitch did.
Basically they were trapped in the warp while crossing a portal because both ends got disspelled. His brother's mind was probably just dormant the entire time and reached out to Tzeech. There in the warp, Tzeech heard and just thought it would be hilarious to do a switcheroo.
I sincerely doubt he felt sorry for his brother that stole his body and became a literal parasite
I do like small bits of the end times, like this one. Because Thorim stealing back the body is poetically appreciative.
As far as I know, just because you control the body in warhammer, and even the mind, doesn't mean the soul itself is controlled, which is a fundamental difference.
Or in other words, it took bout that long for Thorim to use soul power to pray to Big T...Or it was until then that big T decided to actually grant the prayer because he's a massive collossal...Bird.
Real, being that much of a sub is Slaanesh territory

"AND HERE COMES THOMIN BACK FROM THE REALM OF SOULS WITH A MEAT CLEAVER"
I love the spawnify. Just dumping random chaos spawn in armies that are completely loyal to the army, thus most likely making fighting the army harder on you, and giving you absolutely no benefit what so ever is so perfectly a tzeentch move that if giving your enemies chaos spawn was a bug, I hope they never remove it.
Yes! The Vilitch People joke made it! We did it brothers... We did it!
Being a Swedish man, when that swedish mantra came on. I spit out my noodles in laughter all over the screen
Love these! Hope to see Alith Anar, Grombrindal, or Greasus sometime!
CK3 Historical advisor Cody is my favorite, and I hope he keeps popping up in these videos.
I was hoping somebody would comment on that! I love the idea and stole it from SurrealBeliefs. Thank you for saying something. That made my day.
I was actually playing ck3 and showing the new features to my significant other the other day, and her first question was if the game had the Bayeux tapestry as a court artifact. It turned out the Community Flavor Pack mod has an event for Odo of Kent that adds it to the game. I also showed her one of your videos purely because you use the hand of God from the Bayeux Tapestry in the intros and she was very excited to see it. :)
@@quintussertorius4447 one of my long standing goals is to do a new version of the animated tapestry. I was lucky enough to see it in person years ago.
@@codybonds Hi Mr cody, there is an account on youtube commenting on this videos saying thats is you , and wants to give a prize. Is this real?
@@codybonds I think someone is trying to scam people with your name
This really takes "sibling rivalry" to a whole new level 😂
that comment that you won something is a scam right?
Very annoyed they didn’t name The faction “Villitch People”
"Bra med fruntimmren, och kanske hängd som en häst." 😏
He is also damn near un-killable once he gets his quest item. It's kinda amazing.
I like the Vilitch-Thomman switch in the end times, plays into how Tzeetch operates as well as punishes Vilitch for being a bit of an arrogant prick in the perfect way.
yeah, the End Times may have had some massive writing issues (Alith Anar going along with anything that Malekith did, basically everything Mannfred did, ect) but it had some genuinely cool stuff mixed in there (Vilitch-Thomin switch, basically everything Vlad did, basically everything the Skaven did, Nagash returning, most of the new units, ect) and it's pretty stupid that people dismiss the cool stuff simply because it's part of the End Times. in Total War CA could easily just give us the cool stuff while skipping over the stupid bits.
@@Eclipsed_Embers Whos to decide what the 'cool stuff' is and isnt. Some people might like that Malekith ends up being the Phoenix King while others dont have brain damage.
For every decent idea, there are 5 terrible ones, so dismissing it is well worth the sacrifice.
In a way Vilitch's story is a twisted version of Harry Potter's origin story. Both were abused, underfed, undervalued by their respective families and bullied by an older sibling who just happened to be bigger and stronger and lead a gang of bullies to pick on them as well. Only the main difference is for Harry it was his cousin Dudley, and for Vilitch it was his twin brother. And in Vilitch's case, one day Tzeentch said to him "You're a wizard Vilitch" and he fused with his brother and became an very powerful sorcerer.
I was attacked by 3 armies and my army died at some point but this insane Legendary Lord destroyed the rest himself. The fact that his shield was bearly depleted just added to insanity. Op hero.
>Thommin was in control the whole time and was just playing along.
No, not at all. No idea where you got that idea. The twist is that Thommin had just enough brain left while being piloted to pray to Tzeentch at every day of every moment, much like Villitch did in times prior. So Tzeentch, being a massive fucking prick, waited right until it'd be adequate/Vilitch failed him and turned the tables. It's one of the few good things about the End Times and a lovely bookend to Villitch's tale.
Yeah, and story-wise, that's not a bad plot twist, it's basically poetic justice, Vilitch got his wish for cheap, but Tzeentch giveth and Tzeentch taketh away, if he can grant Vilitch's request to switch their places for the lols, he can grant Thomin's request to switch them back for the lols. Like, if you build your power on a wish, it can be taken away by a wish, it's fair, it's capricious, it's Tzeentch.
The Swedish prayer... make me hung like a horse? hahaha
Helman Ghorst better have a few Thriller references.
Tzeentch plan is unfolding all chaos lord are done
Vilitch is the only mortal to ever surprise Tzeentch. It’s not the killing of his own but the way in wich he did.
3:00 Vilitch had artwork of being a two-body monstrosity since roughly 2008 when he was first introduced in Warriors of Chaos 7th edition. The model with Vilitch growing out of Thomin like an eyeless tapeworm thing is from 8th edition which was 2013.
Loved the Swedish part, very nice. Good vid and thx for the info
As always, really good job with this vid.
He just wanted to give vilitch a win
Good brother.
Vilitch is the second best player in paradox billiards vostroyan roulette fourth dimensional hyper cube chess strip poker
The best player will always be kitten
That Swedish prayer caught me off guard. Lmao
Weird music choice but whatever, love your stuff as always
It's Swedish Folk Music. I's mean to go with the underlying joke that Vilitch is a Swedish export, as they were also vikings.
REEE YOU POINTED AT THE BIG BROTHER, NOT MYSELF.
-Vilitch.
Joking, for note. Thanks for the bid Cody :)
This one was fun! Makes me want to buy the dlc. Any possibility of a Skrolk noobs guide?
since i am swedish i can tell you it is quite accurate but very funny
So for playing warriors of chaos, there is a basic gist of emprie ownership, claim any settlement (specifically capitals) with that special symbol and anything lesser are given to vassels to argue over.
7:02 I've been months waiting for you to place that joke somewhere. I wasn't expecting it in a Vilitch video, tho
A lovely soundtrack for the destruction and mayhem.
Is that a baby in the background? No, that's Vilitch.
I LOVE how Vilitch twists the usual ‘big oaf-little genius’ archetype into something so cruel and pathetic you can’t help but laugh.
A noob guide, that's wonderful. I didn't think anyone would make any.
Noob guides are Cody's best content by far
For some reason I don't think your legit 🤔
Given how scattershot Tzeench's domains are patron God of hoverboards is a totally valid description.
If there is one thing I know about Tzeentch. Every plan is his plan. Even if is an unexpected plan. Plus that night. He was playing a game of Paradox-Billiards-Vostroyan-Roulette-Fourth Dimensional-Hypercube-Chess-Strip Poker. You know. Just a "Children's Card Game".
Your videos makes me buy dlc.. startated with ikit claw. Love the vids.
"We are siamese if you please"
Vilitch maybe
I have feeling Cody isnt fan of endtimes :D .. also that music xD I had to pause to make sure its not coming from elsewhere :D
ahahhahaha I died when the swedish prayer started XD
Thanks for the video
I would love to see you cover wulfrik the wanderer
As a swed I knew I was in for a treat when I heard the opening song.
And yes, will done with the translation ;)
What is this cursed background music xD
Great video, Cody, how is the Bertrand le Brigand mod going?
But also dayum... no love for Kroq-Gar and Grimloq on the votes?
Swedish Folk Music. And, I'm in talks with Stratovarius to add him to his Legendary Heroes compilation. I was surprised that EVERY lord that got a vote was from Warhammer 1
I remember I once saw some skaven with tzeentch chaos spawn and was confused, till I remembered Vilitch was in the area.
Can that happen to skaven in the lore? It’s fun for the game. I know warpstone mutates them, but I feel like I remember reading the horned rat protects them from chaos corruption
Good ol Village
As a Swed I can confirm the translation was indeed, mostly, accurate. Especially the hung like a horse part.
Do the Changing of Ways actually work?? The only one I’ve gotten to work is the one that gets rid of the map fog around a selected faction’s settlements. The rest don’t seem to do anything.
Must have been helman ghorst and his family voting hahaa. Glad to see he found them.
You know on a side note we need some mouse tale jokes. Helman goes east or something.
2:52 "OHHHHHH I THINK I'M GETTING A CLUE THIS WAY"
I like before i've even watched Because I have faith its another banger video :)
Just awaiting a noobs guide to Daniel! XD
Yay a new upload
The way how you described the backstories of the brothers is a bit different, since it was definitely Tzeentch's doing in canon lore
It's always a good day when a noobs guide comes out
that comment that you won something is a scam right?
@@Cabrito11 yup, I reported it as such, but it's still there.
@@danedaner1357 I'm trying to warn cody bonds as well
Can't wait for Malagor some day
I actually love that it wasn't a situation where Vilitch was super intelligent but weak and Tomand the other way around. It's a lot more interesting when the runt brother was genuinely useless through and through.
Can Cody Bonds do a Total Warhammer 3 mod spotlight?
There's so many! I feel like I would need to break it into categories. Factions, races, visuals, Campaign or battle even! Also, I've been busy making my own.
@@codybonds You've been making your own mods? By Sigmar....

@@Cabrito11 yeah. Reported it. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.
@@codybonds he promised me an iphone 13 and a playstation 5 ! Can you make better than that Mr. Bonds? hehhehe
What a nice story.
Well Done!
I was wondering what this dude's deal was. Thanks
Yay, Festus is next!
Best tip for playing Vilitch, kill Snikch get the Stalk skill, and now in most siege battles you can just ninja nearly immortal Vilitch to take the cap point and sit and wait, or you can use vilitch to bust down gates and go in and out as needed to shield recharge and you can solo the whole base use magic sparingly obviously the only LL I had a hard time soloing with max level ninja vilitch was Vlad but he still went down after a few attempts after shield recharge.
What song is playing in the background this is driving me insane!
I am curently drunk as fuck and legit thaught i was hallucinating when i started hearing my nativ language halfway thrught this
I love the swedish prayer, i feel represented
Like a turd in a toilet bowl no one can identity the creator"
Nurgle* "yOu DAre UNDERESTIMATE my POWAH!!!!!!"
Vilitch also makes an absurdly strong One Man Doomstack... possibly the strongest in the game.
That accordian music is scary af
Villitch, born a weaking under his brothers arm, and he will die a weakling under his brother's arm
the music lmao
what a lovely day!
Does anyone know what I'm talking about when I say that Vilitch and Thomin reminds me of the Emperor Evron?
The concussion joke makes me think: do they pray the chaos gods ?
I like Vilitch except that he doesn’t provide a unique army composition for exampel buffing chosen of tzeentch or other units.
Vilitch is the Feather Man of his people.
Excellent.
beautiful
The Swedish was a good touch
Kul att man förstod hans bön
Jag pratar tyvärr inte svenska, det var därför jag bad någon att översätta.
as a swedish person I love seeing the text "perfectly accurate swedish translation" as you know that anyone watching will be more knowledgeable about the swedish language after hearing the perfectly and not at all incorrect translation :P
