To correct her on Skarbrand: the problem was that he DIDNT strike his face. He attacked him while his back was turned, wich is cowardly and deceptive, wich Khorne hates.
Yeah, if Skarbrand told Khorne he was weak and he wanted to fight Khorne would’ve been all down. Probably still would’ve ruined Skarbrands life but at least Khorne would respect him
Oh, that is a HUGE difference. Thank you for your comment!
I thought he got the scar from him getting thrown from Khorne’s throne?
@@dreamythememey6005 that is why his wings are fucked up
@@tox9809 agreed, khorne yeeted him so hard haha
She goes really deep into the new factions introduced in TW:W3. Great video. A similarly-sized video on the 2nd game was done by MandaloreGaming that talks about the races in TW:W1+2, so I'd give that a reaction too, if you can.
I loved watching this video, she did a really good job! Do you have a link to the video you mentioned? And thank you so much for your comment :D
@@OleHerland of course. Here ya go: ruclips.net/video/WA_iXKhoujA/видео.html
@@OleHerland If you want to stay with the same person, she did another video on the rest of the races ^^
ruclips.net/video/o_G2CcesUkk/видео.html
@@krankarvolund7771 Yes! :D Got that one on my list as the next Total War lore video actually! :D Can't wait!
5:02 that is Ulthuan, the home continent of the high elves.
12:10 she is insane, how paranoid do you need to be, to think that there are Ratmen under our feet? Ratmen?! Hopefully she finds the help she needs.
13:10 The thing is, the Warhammer fantasy world has two moons, a normal one and a green one (Morrslieb). Morrslieb fully consists of Warpstone/Morrsstone, which is the crystalized form of pure chaos. The Skaven, that obviously dont exist, love this stone. Their money is crafted from it, their technology is fueled with it, their mutants are created with it,...
17:40 Kislev is based on the slavic nations, mostly russia, but they also have the winged Hussars of the Poles and one of their biggest city is named Praag.
22:40 A long long time in the steppes there were many many nomadic tribes. The mongolian tribes are among them. Other would be the Turk tribes or the Huns (it is unclear where exactly they were coming from)
29:39 Ogres are not related to the greenskins, their next relative seems to be the halflings.
31:30 It is more that the maw whispers into their ears to eat more and more, so that they are big and fat, when it can eat them.
32:56 Originally, he rides on a throne which is held up by uncountable Gnoblar (more or less Goblins) slaves.
40:45 The huge ones are no ogres, they are giants, which the ogres enslaved.
42:40 If I recall correctly, the pot was welded on him, when his hands were chopped of.
44:50 The story with the giants is: when the ogres fled from their ancient homeland the came across the mountains of Mourn, where Huge giants with their mammoth herdes reigned. The ogres, hungry as they are, began to slaughter and eat every last one of them, and settled then in these mountains.
50:20 There are Ogres which control fire, the fire bellies are priests of a volcano in the mountains of Mourn, which the ogre began to treat as a minor god. To become a firebelly you need to drink lava, but afterwards you can spew fire and use fire magic.
54:40 Tzeentch is so treachorous, that he will betray himself, if he has the upperhand.
Also: Tzeentch is the god of change, knowledge and magic.
Nurgle is the god of diseases, standing still as well as life and death.
Khorne is the god of War, Fight, Blood and Honor.
Slaanesh is the god of beauty, love, art and pleasure, espacially sm.
Yes, these are the same as the 40k Chaos gods.
58:00 normally a killed demon goes back into the warp, reforms itself in the next few centuries, more or less, and then can enter the mortal realms again.
58:10 They are two completely different universes, but they share the Warp, the chaos gods and some demons. There is a theory, that the warhammer fantasy world is a very very secluded world in the 40k universe.
1:07:00 Behold, Nurgle is there. Sacrifice your soul and being to our beloved father, and, contrary to all these impostor gods, he will give all your love, all your dedication thousandful back to you through his sacred diseases and grant you the ultimate strength to survive even the harshest situation. Behold.
1:11:20 She missed an important part of Kugath: He once was a mere Nurgling, that fell into the pot of Nurgle and became a greater demon this way. I think, he tries to atone for this incident, by creating his many diseases.
1:12:00 Slaanesh existed already, when the Chaos god descended the first time on the Warhammer fantasy world. And as far as I know, Slaanesh doesnt have an origin story.
1:21:56 Sigmar was a chieftain, who united many tribes and ultimately founded the Empire. After his death/disappearance, the citizens of the Empire began to worship him as a god. So he basically ascended to godhood after his death.
Heyo! Love your content man, but can you make sure to include a link to the original videos?
Hey, and thank you so much! Great idea, I put it in there 😍 Be sure to check her out! She did an amazing job 🤩😍
yeah youre correct
-Total War is the game. (more precisely, its a RTS franchise, where it uses various historical and fantasy settings as a base. In this case Warhammer Fantasy. Other examples for Total War games are Rome Total War, Medieval Total War, Shogun Total War, Total War Saga: TROY, etc.)
-Warhammer Fantasy is the actual Lore Setting
-and yes Fantasy has many other games too
So many questions in this video 😅 I'll try to answer most of them.
- "what happened to Norway ?"
Norway, Sweden and Finland are all merge into one land, Norsca. people there are human vikings who hunts monsters and worship the chaos gods. not in a become mutated and spawning demon way, but more "subtle" way. they gave offrands to the god in exchange of some favors.
- "Is that Hawai ?"
It's more like the Atlantide. Ulthuan is the land of the high elves. really rich lands in the middle of the world.
- "is that the bible ?"
The big book is the rulebook of wharammer fantasy when it was a thing. so many thing in there, lore, rules, artworks ...
- So, the skaven moon attracting magnet ... yeah it works ans it did worked. skaven are carzy engineer, fighter, ninja and bringer of plague.
- Albion, the fantasy UK part of the world is populated by things from the celtic mythology. there aren't much about them though.
- Vampire pirate are like the first pirate of the carribean undead crazyness mixed with ghosts, bats and vampire stuff
- don't be scared of people opinion about you. we're all nerds, liking nerds stuff and enjoying watching people having a great time getting into what we likes ❤
- About the miniature game of fantasy, yes it was like 40k and age of sigmar, with collecting, building and painting. but warhammer fantasy games were about "bigger" armies. 40k and age of sigmar looks more like you're controlling few squads who are fighting for accomplishing a precise objective. In fantasy you had more a feeling like you were playing an army fighting to anihilate the other. But except that, it's basically the same type of game.
Games workshop also have the right for the lord of the rings franchise. so they have the LotR miniature wargame on their website and it's also kinda the same type of game.
- the demon in 40k and fantasy/age of sigmar are the same but but there is a major difference between the 2 univserse. The warp isn't a thing in fantasy. each gads have their demonic plan of existence. So not every living soul is connected to them and can turn to them. the chaos gods grew power from their worshippers just like any other gods. and there a quite some in fantasy.
- Sigmar is the god of humanity. you can make a parallele with the emperor of 40k kinda, except sigmar is a literral god and "alive".
Can't wait to see you react to all the total war warhammer trailers and more warhammer stuff in general 😘
WOW, thank you so much for answering SO MANY of my questions! Your comment really made my day ♥
There is just so much good stuff and interesting facts in your answer there, not even sure where to begin except it just being so much fun to read!
Love that sigmar is a god, but also "alive". That way there is probably so much interesting facts/lore about his time on "earth".
I really want to get a copy of "the bible" / the rulebook. That would be so cool to own!! :o
Thank you again, I'm just over the moon with learning so much from you! I hope you have a great day 😍
"The warp isn't a thing in fantasy"
That is absolutely 100% incorrect. The various demonic planes exist within the warp, Chaos was introduced to the Warhammer world through the collapse of the WARP gates, WARPstone exists.... Pretty accurate on everything else but your Demon/Chaos/Warp understanding is quite inaccurate and misleading.
Ku'gath also hates Dwarves. First, all Nurgle daemons don't like dwarves, because they're resistant to magic, and to diseases, so they're not fun to toy with, they're too resistant. And himself have been beaten by dwarves when Chaos tried to conquer the World, so he just hates the little guys XD
The book of choyer is also a great lore channel for warhammer fantasy. Great naration and animation.
Very much so yes and Loremaster of Sotek.
The gods of both universes are not copies of themselves they are literally the same since they don’t obey to the rules of time and space. The are everywhere all the time and never. So you have the same demons in both universes. And even some of the machinery bleeds into fantasy coming from the chaos. Only the mortal followers are obviously different (weapons, armor etc.)
The Age of Sigmar models are in the same price range as the 40k models. At least for the majority. The old models for the discontinued Warhammer Fantasy are extremely old and only available used. The prices are much higher there.
Oooh, I see! Thank you for taking the time to write the comment. Really nice to understand/know a bit more :D
There are third party miniature makers though, both more and less expensive. You can use Mantic's cheap Kings of War minis for Warhammer Fantasy for instance or get some of the super detailed but expensive demon models from Creature Caster if you want. There are tons of options for Fantasy if you're willing to dig a bit.
Most of the factions have cultural analogue for somewhere in the real world either in medieval era or early Renaissance. The Empire is obviously the Holy Roman Empire of central Europe. Brettonia is France. The Norse are...the Norse. Kislev is Russia/Poland/Ukraine. Grand Cathay is China. Estalia is Spain. Tilea are the city states of northern Italy. Hell even the Lizardmen have strong Mayan/Aztec vibes to them. Thats not even counting the factions that are generally unplayable and likely not to be because theyre even more on the nose with Ind(India), Nippon(Japan) and Araby.
Kislev is pretty interesting because the reason it's a hodgepodge of Slavic influences. You see, it's not based on Russia itself, it's based on Kievian Rus, a progenitor based closer to Eastern Europe than Russia as we think of today. It's also why Kislev is so small compared to how large Russia is.
@@zenoblues7787 that could very well be possible as you can see some obvious Cossack analogies in the Ungols and Gospadars but Im sure thats only partly what the original creators, who created this in the 80s mind you, intended as you also have Polish Winged Hussars in theyre roster and also some nods to both Kievean Rus architecture and that of old Novgorod. So I think probably a more accurate analogy would be just the medieval Slavs really.
Well, also because there's virtually noore about Ind or Nippon.
As an answer to maybe your least important question: bloodletters are named for the medical practice of blood letting-- deliberately bleeding a patient because it was believed they had too much blood and it was causing an imbalance in bodily humors. This imbalance in the four humors was believed to be the root cause of all illness.
Discourse is a good channel - usually topical/news stuff, but occasionally a video like this :) she’s Irish
Irish!! Nice! Loved this video, was so much fun to check out 🤩 Thank you for your comment!
I'd guess Northern the way she hit gamE
@@McRino1 yep you’re correct :)
Actually the Mongol-analogue factions are the Chaos-influenced steppe tribes that the Kislevites are continually fighting against.
Oh, I see 👀 Thank you for your comment!
btw ogres are extremely resistant to chaos by design (the old ones creation) they are incredible warriors and they wiped out the sky titans to claim the moun tains of mourn
Wow, cool! :D Ogres are one of my fav I think :D Thank you for yet another great comment! :D
@@OleHerland i'll link some more vids for their lore, theyre awesome
@@OleHerland Also, they can eat anything. They prefer meat, of course, but when she says they can bite bullets, it's litteral, they can eat metal or things like that if they want XD
And it may seem like they're poorly armoured, but unlike most creatures, their vital organs are all in the guts, they don't really have anything important in the torso, so that's why they can ahve their breasts free XD
Regarding your concerns about saying something "wrong", just don't give the outrage people any attention from the get go and it will be fine. The viewers can tell that you are a genuine guy, so don't be scared.
Thank you so much for your comment, really appreciate it! I think my issue is that I care too much about making people happy and not angry. Maybe not the best trait to have if I'm going to "survive" as a content creator :p But, I'll do my best! Thank you again tho
@@OleHerland I get it trust me. But what I learned from other creators dealing with that issue is that as much as you don't feed the trolls you don't give in and acknowledge the people that are looking for opportunities to be offended.
Just be you. ^^
Also, the first time the Chaos Gods decided to unite their forces, they created a Daemon-Prince, which means a human, that receive the ultimate gift becoming an immortal daemon, but will keep his human mind. His name was Be'lakor (he's in the game too) and he was the most powerful Daemon-Prince that have ever existed as he had powers of all the four Gods... that's why he tried to betray the Gods, instead of leading their armies, he did invaded the world, but ot his own glory, raising monuments to himself and demanding worship from his mortal followers.
So the Chaos Gods were a little pissed off, but they let it slide because he still spread CHaos everywhere, which was what they wanted, but when the Elves created a vortex that basically limit the influence of CHaos in the world and saved the world, Be'lakor was banished in the Chaos Realms with all the other daemons, and there he faced the Chaos Gods.
They forced him to stay in the Chaos Realms forever, except when they wanted him to go in the world, and there, crown himself the Everchosen, the mortal that will lead the chaos armies. Which is like a super huge blow to his ego, the only time he can go in the world, is to crown his successor and serve him as an advisor, he's just a servant of a mere mortal XD
there is a giant rat walking on two feet, wearing a full red armor and wielding two weapons
ole: "that s wrong! rat have two teeth on the front! two teeth! am i the one who is weird here?"
everybody: "definitely yes"
nevermind the doomwheel and hellpit abomination in the background lol 🤣
Or the rat ogre
You know, Scandinavians being the worst enemy of the entire world in this setting is both cool and oddly amusing, concidering modern Scandinavia and the Nordics are known to be one of the best places to live on the planet.
Minus how expensive shit can be but you geddit.
The "Tome" is a rule book, I'd say the eight version the last before the ending of the world and the game.
It's very large because it contains a complete summary of all the lore and major plot points of the settings, a big section of miniatures photos (because GW is first and foremost a company that sell plastic figurines ^^), and another section of rules to play the game. So it's a big book, it was written pretty small but with a lot of pictures too, artworks, figurines, etc... It's not like a novel.
Besides, unless you don't know the lore and want to read about it, you'd only open the book when you need it at the section you need it, it was more an encyclopedia, and an instruction manual to play the game ^^
The huuge guy behind the Ogre is a Giant. Giants are the decerebrate descendants of the Sky Titans, that were an advanced civilisation of peaceful giants, until they were conquered and eaten by Ogres who took their mountains as their main kingdom, and then enslaved every Giant they saw. Ogres are fun like that :p
So there are some real-world comparisons to be made between historical cultures and the factions in Warhammer Fantasy.
The Empire is, by design, a hodgepodge of various European cultures, but primarily it is associated with Germany, the Byzantines, and even a bit of Spain and Portugal thrown in, weirdly enough.
Kislev is Slavic Russia, Grand Cathay is China, Nippon is is Japan, Albion is the British Isles, Bretonnia is France(don't question it), Sylvania is Transylvania/Romania, Nehekara is Egypt, Norsca is Scandinavia, and so on.
The various races also represent various cultures unto themselves, but that is a lengthy topic, with several factions being associated with the old 'barbarian tribes' trope, namely the Orcs, Beastmen, and Ogres, but any time THAT discussion is brought up somebody has to scream about how _'These fantasy races are harmful racist caricatures of ethnic groups and minorities!'_ I mean when was the last time you saw a 10-foot tall morbidly obese monster and think _'Oh yeah. This is totally supposed to be an actual Asian person just because it borrows some Mongolian aesthetics. It's totally not an allegory to the Mongolian hordes under Genghis Khan or the Hun Empire under Attila, both of which scared the fuck out of every major world power at the time and were viewed as monstrous because of it.'_
Well spain, portugal and italy got their own seperate factions like estalia and the southern kingdoms.
The Empire is a play on the Holy Roman Empire. That's why it's a divided kingdom where the kings vote on their leader. It's also why it has a lot of infighting. The German is primarily because some people of the HRE were Germanic and later formed their own state
Kislev is actually based on Kievian Rus, a progenitor to Russia located in western Europe. It's also why Kislev has a heavier Slavic influence and is small compared to Russia itself.
Bretonnia is actually based on Arthurian mythology, which blends mythic/mediæval France and England in a weird way.
@@TomorrowWeLive There's actually a precedent in the cultural blending of Britain, England, and France as European culture slowly became more homogenous over the last millennia or two, but I'm not a history buff so I'm not going to get into the specifics because my fickle memory is going to probably get something seriously wrong.
Sigmar is the mortal turned god of the Empire i.e Germany
Sigmar basically is ment to be Charlemangne ("Karl der Große" in german).
Just wanted to mention it before all the "so he is adolf" comments
Holy Roman Empire
Need to double check but the ages of the chaos gods used to be Khorne, Tzeentch, Nurgle and slanesh but things have been juggled so many times so who knows.
Kislev is like Russia/Polish and other eastern europe
Yeah, I really failed on that one 🤣 Thank you for your comment!
Total War is a licensed game made by Sega set in the setting of Warhammer Fantasy Battles
hope you rewatch the warhammer total war immortal empires trailer AFTER you gained all the lore knowledge and watched the cinematics
UUUUUH, I love this thought! :D I'm working through all the cinematics/trailers of Total War now. At the end, it would be SO cool to do that one again. Thank you for your comment!🤩
There's actually two explanations for the Great Maw.
The first is that SOMETHING came down on the meteor that the Dragon Emperor called down onto the Ogre's lands, and that something became the Great Maw.
The other explanation is that the Ogres, wallowing in despair and madness as they were starving to death and resorting to cannibalism, found the hole left by the meteor and, being simple-minded creatures teetering on the brink of total insanity, willed the Great Maw into existence by their collective belief that there was some kind of monster there, constantly gnawing at their minds and threatening to devour them if its hunger was not satiated, and this collective delusion manifested as what was essentially the Chaos God of Hunger, bound to this hole in the earth that the Ogres called The Great Maw.
This is possible because minor Warp entities, like tiny daemons whose sole purpose is to cause milk to curdle as it ages, can be willed into existence by common belief; these are essentially gods in their own right, but they can be hyper-specific in their portfolio and thus extremely weak. Case in point? Slaanesh's portfolio includes the indulgence of gluttony, but none of the 4 primary Chaos Gods have domain over the concept of 'Hunger', so other less powerful gods exist within the Immaterium exist to fill in the role.
Ulthwan (the big ring continent between the "Americas" and "Africa"/"Europe", which is home to the High Elves) is "Atlantis".
Yeah, Slaanesh is cited as the youngest Chaos God, but other than that there's nothing precise about their birth in Warhammer Fantasy, there's no race like the Eldars that are linked to her or anything like that ^^'
Well, there's still Elves, and they still have superior sensations that makes them more easily tempted by Slaanesh, and Slaaneshi daemons usually find elvish souls more palatable than other mortal souls, so there's a link. And notably, N'Kari, the main lord of Slaanesh in Total War Warhammer III hates Elves because they killed him thousands of years ago. But other than that, they're not intimately linked like the Eldars and Slaanesh in 40K ^^
"Maybe Orcs ride horses?"
Nah. They ride boars! Because they're as smelly and bad-tempered as they are, so they feel like they're buddies :D
Dwarves don't ride anything, they hate to not be on their feets, at best they have ponies to pull their carts XD
The big island in form of an almost circle is probably a reference to Atlantis, that was supposed to be a round island, with another sea inside, and an another island on the interior sea. It's a lot simplified here, but a big land mass between Europe and America, it's Atlantis ^^
Yeah I totally get what you're saying about the visuals really firing you up (this isn't even the best art. Look up some of the concept art from Warhammer Online. Actually, if you like I've got a pretty good collection of my personal favourite Warhammer art built up over the years, and I can dump it in an Imgur album or something if you'd like to see it?) And it even inspiring you in the rest of your life in a weird way. The epicness and awesomeness of Warhammer does that to you. I went through exactly the same thing when I discovered Warhammer as a teen. Totally blew my whole world open. Seems like you've been called, brother. Welcome to the Warhammer world.
I think it would have been better if she started out from the very beginning basic factions being the Empire, the Dwarfs, the Elves, and then Chaos in that order since lore wise they are ones most intrinsically linked to each other.
While my favorite faction next to the Empire, the Lizardmen has a more personal vendetta with Chaos they were written as a more mysterious faction of the good guys so they are not as fleshed out as the ones I mentioned earlier.
Which I say would help alot better if your new and want to get into the Fantasy lore better.
The thing is, it's not a video to introduce you to Warhammer the universe, but to Warhammer Total War III that had only these races in game at the start ^^
@@krankarvolund7771 Very true, but I think its misleading to start off with the factions of TW:WIII without establishing the primary factions of that encompass this world. With Cathay being one with the least lore compared to the fully fleshed out one with the Empires. Thats my personal opinion that is.
@@endwarAH80blackfoot As I said, she just followed the games ^^
the line about "most will die in the dirt not knowing the face of their father" basically means violence and war is so common place that most kid dont remembering their fathers due to them dying in battle/wars shortly after they were born only to then follow in their footsteps, leaving behind their own children.
Just a detail, but the horned Sigvald is his new form in Age of Sigmar, in Warhammer he looks like a very beautiful man, so no horns ^^
Kislev is pretty much fantasy Russia-Poland. Well Russia with the polish Winged Hussars, because they're cool, so yeah Eastern Europe, but somehow as a buffer between Scandinavia and Germany XD
They do have some mongol-like unites, the Ungols, but that's because Russia was conquered by Mongols and share an history with them, plus it's a reference to the Coassacks too ^^
the best way to describe Kislev is Slav, just Slav. they're comprised of various bits and pieces of all Slavic nationalities
Hehe, really butchered that part with my limited knowledge Thank you so much for your comment! :D
So this was interesting for me as, while I'm not a total noob on the lore of WH Fantasy, I'm not as well versed on it as I am with 40k.
Really glad you liked it! :D I also liked it a lot, and felt it was a pretty good first step into the lore of Fantasy/Total War :D
40:41 the 2 big dudes are giants, probably about 2-3 times bigger than an ogre. giants are basically sort of natural-evil dudes, they dont "belong" to any 1 faction but many factions have their own variants of giants, the Greenskins (orcs, goblins etc..) have giants, the Ogres have some, and also some of the chaos factions have some like Norsca, Beastman and the warriors of chaos (the chaos version is usually corrupted/mutated and I think sometimes have some special "skill" like a frost breath or something similar).
Quick way to remember orks from ogres is that orks grow from mushrooms lol
Hahahha, easy was to distinguish one from the other 😂👍
Cathay is literally an ancient name for China, they didn't searched very far for that XD
Fun Fact the minor faction Nippon based on Japan is the only country that doesn't have a different name from real life. Nippon is literally what Japanese people call Japan. Japan is a name specifically made for other people to use.
Not exactly. Cathay is an older name for china. Fantasy India is Ind. Araby-Araby. The old name for "germany" was the holy roman empire of german nation. Albion is the latin name for the british isles.
I fully expect that to be retconned if GW/CA work on them. I'm expecting a complete overhaul
@clemensbartsch2580 While those examples are true, the thing that makes Nippon comical is that it is the name the country still uses. Nobody calls it Araby or Cathy anymore, and the Holy Roman Empire has long since splintered into many different nations. It is the one faction that made no attempt to differentiate from the real world.
@MrShadowCollector I personally blame this on the fact it's very old lore. Geographically, it's the farthest eastern country, so GW never had any reason to develop it. Although I really would hope CA makes them a faction because samurai fighting Ogres and Zombie armies sounds awesome.
@@zenoblues7787 I agree. Look at how CA made Cathay incredible with super stone soldiers and multiple dragons as rulers.
I feel like with the new Nippon we'll get the samurai but also lean heavily into the mythology with things like Oni = Their version of Daemons that look different, Creatures like Kitsune's and what not.
I mean Khuresh is on it's way to being the next big thing so when that eventually gets revealed we'll have a better idea on how the new nippon will look.
age of sigmar is the same as 40k so you have to paint them and they also cost allot. but i think that 40k has more models.
They are different universes with different factions. The only thing the same is the Daemon armies and the warp itself.
Thank you for telling me! I had a feeling it was like that. Now I have even more models I want to buy 😅 Gotta start earning more money! 😅🤣
Btw OficiallyDevin's 'Warhammer Lore EXPERT SUMMARY (All Things)' is a not very accurate but very funny short rundown of the Warhammer factions and their real-world counterparts, and is critically underappreciated for the comedic masterpiece it is.
Warhammer Fantasy was shut down so minis are hard to get hold thus making them expensive at the moment but GW is in the works of reopening it again and yes its just like 40k with painting and playing except its a different set of rules and armies moves around in square block like in Napoleonic war I have about 3000 points of Dwarfs from my youth
Sigmar is kinda like the Emperor, except that he really died. He was just a regular tribe chief, at the time where the humans were still barbarians, but he united all the tribes in what is today the Empire, repelled several invasions (like there was a Greenskins invasion, then an undead invasion where he killed Nagash the greatest necromancer who ever un-lived, and then a Chaos invasion, he was busy). Himself worshipped gods, like Ulric the Wolf God, or Taal the God of Nature, and then he died, and humans thought he was so cool they made him a God. And he became one, because it's Warhammer, and when enough people believe in something it happens ^^
That is super important in the sequel game to Warhammer, Age of Sigmar, where Sigmar decided that he will fight Chaos. There's a lot to explain, but basically it's a fourth way battle between the forces of Order that are either devotees of Sigmar, or just people who believe that civilisation is good, the forces of Death, lead by Nagash (Sigmar killed him, but he's better now) who thinks that killing everyone is good because he controls all dead people, Chaos, of course, and Destruction, that are all the people that think that civilisation is not good, Chaos is not good, death is not good, but fighting and destroying is.
She didn't mentionned many daemons of Nurgle, but there's two I partiiculary like. First there's the Plaguebearers that are the real rank and file of the hosts of Nurgle, not the Nurglings, they're originally mortals, unlike all other Daemons, that have contracted a disease known as Nurgle's rot, that fed on their sould and transformed them into daemons.
And their job is to count the creations of their father. So, all day,, on all battlefields, they just sing the names of all the diseases that Nurgle invents, in the effort of countring them, an impossible task as Nurgle invents new strains of disease at each second. They're also known as the tallymen of Nurgle.
The other one is the Beast of Nurgle, which is a sort of gigantic slug, which is very very cheerful and friendly. She's like the nicest thing on Earth, it's a big puppy. A big puppy with the size of a bull, a corrosive slime, and of course spread disease everywhere. So she's literally jumping on any new friend she can find, crushing them under her weight and dissolving their corpses in her slime, and then she'll wonder where all her new friends are, and will go find other friends to play with.
But of course Beasts of Nurgle will begin to think that all these new friends that disappear are not nice, and some could feel anger and ressentment, that will slowly devour them from the inside, until they die of anger. And when they die, they reincarante in the Gardens of Nurgle as a Rot Fly, a malevolent cruel beast ressembling a fly, that will take revenge for all the love she didn't get in her previous life.
Kislev: Russia / Mongoloia
Bretonia : France
The Empire : Germany /Poland/ Austria
The Orks : Engliand
The Nordman : Norway
etc
The Empire have nothing in common with Poland. Kislev cover for example Gryphon Legion inspired by most iconic polish cavalry. So Kislev is more or less all slavic nations. Unless there is some connection that other nationalities do, that as Pole I'm not aware of and never did.
Also orcs besides Scottish accent have nothing in common. Bretonia is more of England/France combination. Quite literally you have there Lady of the Lake from Arthurian myths... And their British.
Orks are just talking like english soccer fans but the high elves clearly are ment to represent the UK and the dark elves are ment to be the US thats why they use slaves unlike the high elves.
This franchise always a a UK bias
@@michasz9038 yeah and the legend of king arthur actually comes from france.
Thats no joke the first mention of the story was written in french and lancelot actually got included in later editions who btw in the legend is the eir of france where he died of old age
The Empire is literally the Holy Roman Empire. Also, the Ogres have a better claim to being Mongolian. The Orcs and Green Skins are closer to the idea of barbarians as imagined by Ancient Rome.
@@hugovasquez8222 You're right, my mistake regarding this aspects. Mea culpa.
Slaanesh daemons don't look sexy, because we see their true forms. But in the lore, they're polymorphs that are able to manipulate your mind to make you believe they ressemble your idealized person, they're the perfect woman, or the perfect man for you. So they're still alluring and sexy, it's just that we see what their victimes see just before dying ^^
For Age of Sigmar which is kind of the sequel to Warhammer Fantasy I would recommend HeyWhoas all Factions in 31 minutes video. It does involve a lot more of the tabletop but it's also a really funny watch that still gives you the gist of the faction
Yeah Chaos is shared between the two universes, there's even a fan-theory, not cannon, but still fun, that Warhammer, the world, is a planet in the molky way that is just isolated from the rest of the universe by super strong warp storms ^^
The warp does not exist as a word, but the Chaos Realms, that are in the warp in 40K exists in Warhammer, so the warp probably exists too, it's just that the habitants don't know about it. But like in 40K, daemons go back in the Warp when they're killed, one of the Greater Daemons present in Total War Warhammer have a grudge agaiinst Elves because they killed him the last time he was around ^^
So I have a bit of a side topic here but it came up in the video so I don't feel bad about it.
When talking about the kislev horsemen, she mentioned a song by a group called Sabaton. The song name is The Winged Hussars.
Now I don't know if your familiar with Sabaton so I'll keep it short. They are a Swedish metal band that writes every song they do based on historical events or people. Their music is highly enjoyable, informative and often high energy. It's the absolute best way to learn history in my opinion.
It would be amazing if you were to react to some of their songs. Their lyric videos are great to understand the song and its meaning. There music videos are always top quality entertainment and their live show videos are fantastic. If you want to learn about history in a way that gets you hyped and pumped up for more, I can't reccomend them enough.
Of course you may know about them and I may have blathered on about them for nothing, but it's worth it in my opinion. 😀
this is a good introduction, the other vids like book of choyers will give more in depth explanation
If I'm not mistaken (I also know very little about Warhammer Fantasy, though I've played TW Warhammer 1-3), she says "tome" not "tomb". 😁
Hahahah, thanks! Got a lot to learn about a lot of things, even speaking/listening to English 😂
> Czar
> Bear
> Lots of ice
Is this based in Mongolia?
lmao what
Kislev is based on eastern europe, particularly the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and the Russian Empire.
Yeah D&D and Warhammer rpg share a lot of commonalities between each other as they have the roots in Tolkien. But the big difference is D&D focuses on the people being hero’s who take little harm whilst adventuring whilst the Warhammer is the people living mundane lives are thrust into action. Leaving them injured, diseased and probably mad.
You definitely need to check out some rpg videos to see the difference played out.
My understaaning of fantacy and 40k is after the war in heaven or during when the old ones escaped they tried to restart what they have doen in anouther demention. So things and factions are relateble but they play out in 2 dementions. That is why I think the chaos gods are the same but do different things.
No, two different universes.

The reason rat people pulled the moon out of the sky, is because said moon was made of magical cocaine they're addicted to.
Hahah. I feel so naive! Is this true? Or is this one of the best jokes? Idk! 😅🤣
@@OleHerland Warhammer World have 2 moons. The bigger one is normal and orbits the planet as usual, but the smaller one - Morsilleb - is made out of concantrated magic/mutagen called warpstone and moves on chaotic unpredictable orbit, periotically showering the world with warpstone meteors.
Warpstone is a glowing green rock and extremely dangerous. Contact with it causes mutations and insanity, but also increases magical ability or gives it to those tho don'e have it. Since Skaven are already mutants and insane, they don't care about the dangers of warpstone and use it as power source for their technology, and their mages snort it like cocaine to bost their magic (and also get high on it).
During the end times one of Skaven clans used massive magical ritual to pull Morsilleb closer to the planet to cause constant warpsnot meteors, so Skaven could have more warpstone. Another their clan not to be outdone used magnetic beam cannon to pull Morsilleb into the planet, so they can harvest ALL the warpstone. It would have destroyed the world, if another faction - lizardmen - didn't blow up the falling moon and focus all the fallinh meteors on themselves, obliterating their own continent, but saving the rest of the world. For a while at least.
If I remember correctly, sigmar possessed Karl Franz in the end times to fight archeon
Whooot, thaf is cool! 😱
What she referenced is the realm of Aqshi or realm of fire. Basically, there's eight magical realms that really don't matter that much in Warhammer, it's just that most wizards use the energies of these worls to do magic. They're also called the eight winds of magic, because their influence fluctuate on the world like winds. But some people have special magics, like Kislev have Ice magic because they use the magical energies of Kislev itself.
And of course because nothing is good in Warhammer, those magical winds does not just give you super magic powers, they're also a gateway to the Chaos realms, that are also magical realms but where live the four chaos Gods that are common to both universes, and they can cause mutations. And not something like, one more digit, we talk about a third eye, a mouth in your belly, horns, things like that. She mention burning wizards, well most countries will also burn mutants at the stake. Because they're corrupted by Chaos and will most likely help Chaos or so they think ^^
And also magic is super unreliable. In the old rules, each yime you cast a spell, you could provoke some sorts of catastrophe, that could range from just losing your grasp on the winds, to lobotomizing your wizard making him forget his spells, and probably also his name and things like that, but the annoying part was the spells. And sometimes, he could open a gateway to the chaos realm, kill a bunch of his friends and dive headfirst into Chaos, so probably not a great time for him. Or the people around. Or your game if he was the general and main wizard of your army XD
The realms themselves are a lot more important in Age of Sigmar, because that game happens literally in these realms, where literal Gods and dozens of races live and fight to control those magical worlds. Age of Sigmar is epic too XD
Your not correct on the "Kislev being Mongolian" they are positioned where Poland and piece of Russia who'd be also the Bear part is Russian and there wings thing on there back is more Poland's winged hussars from our history.
I have got your back
Thanks 😍❤
Hi big warhammer fan actually warhammer fantasy and warhammer 40k are at the same time... Warhammer fantasy world is in warhammer 40k universe... You would have to scroll through the lore a bit... :) it's complicated explain it like this in comments :). ... But if some god of chaos decides to conquer the world,, warhammer fantasy,, and sends his soldiers from 40k, then when passing through a kind of gateway to warhammer fantasy, these soldiers will get axes and medieval armor instead of bolters and supersuits thanks to the magic of the ancients that this world protects ... It's very complicated ... :) sorry for my english
Poor Daniel not even mentioned :(
Daniel? 👀 Did I forget to mention someone? 😅
Daniel the Daemon. Slayer of Ursun, second undivided daemon prince, sub bf of the ice queen and owner of the largest wardrobe of unimpressive body parts
Holy crap, sounds like someone I wanna learn more about 👀
@@OleHerland he's just making a joke about a humorous 'character' from the CA Total War tutorial trailers. Not an actual Warhammer, character, obviously
Speaking of titles that don't fit a single tweet. Check out Settra the Imperishable.
The african pirates you were thinking of are Somali.
Fuck the cancel culture people, Just be yourself and your fans will stick by you as we know better then to turn on you for something ridiculous. Stay strong my guy
Thank you! 🤩❤️ I heard something the other day, that most rational people will see if you are a good or a bad person. And if you do something wrong (which everyone does eventually), then the rational people will understand that. Really helps take some weight of my shoulders 🤩 I'm pretty sure most people get that I'm not evil ❤️ Thank you for your support!
Fuck me I am watching this a 3 am
9im building a warhammer army a vampire counts one at the moment but im using kings of war as they are cheaper good proxy models
13 years ago... Recently...
Guess it depends on what you measure up against 😅🤣
I love Fantasy.
She has some nice videos.
I'm falling in love with fantasy myself! :D I've only seen this video from her, but it was really good!!
You might want to add a link to the original video
Thank you for the really good tip! Added 🤩
The world is warhammer, although it has become customary to refer to it as Warhammer Fantasy. Warhammer Fantasy Battle was the original miniature game that is no longer maintained by Games Workshop, there's still people that play it, but it's pretty much dead.
And Warhammer Total War, is a game in that universe, probably the most popular of all the video games in the universe ^^
And yes it was older than 40K, not by a lot like 4 years later ^^
Warhammer Fantasy Battle was created in 1983, Warhammer 40K in 1987.
I’m sorry just have to pause for a moment. Literally uses the Russian word Tsar, has a Slavic as hell sounding name ‘Kislev’, uses bears a common image for Russia, has literal winged hassar like armor in the art shown, “is that like Mongolia” no hate and your complete miss on what culture background is hilarious as hell but like damn I’m trying to process how you came to that conclusion XD
HAHAHAHAHA, Love your comment! Yeah, my brain worki no goodi sometimes (all the time). Hahahah :D I don't know what happened there 😂
Know how you feel. Living in lower africa but understaand. Hahahaha sumali pirates. They are mostly at the horn of africa. People must take there snow feelings outside and enjoy life.
The models for Warhammer Fantasy just don't exist anymore. The game is dead, the good looking models had been transferred to the new game, but that's all ^^
But yeah, the new game Age of Sigmar works exactly the same as Warhammer 40K, wich is plastic figurines that will come in parts that need to be build, then painted, then you can play with them. And yeah, it's super expensive, that's like the complaint number 1 of all players since I've started this game like 15 years ago, and probably before that XD
As for the differences between the two, it's honestly not a big factor if it's Age of Sigmar or Warhammer 40K, it's more the age of the miniatures, and the type of army that will have a big impact on the price. There's armies that have mostly old miniatures with some dating from the 2000s and are sold at an almost reasonable price, and there's entirely new armies with super good looking figurines and super high prices ^^
Age of Sigmar is probably even more jarring because it had got a lot of new armies with only new figurines, and in the same time still have a lot of ancient armies that have very few new figurines, so the price contrast can be a lot.
I don't really play anymore, but the prices I've seen, for a beginner format (you chose the size of your army with army points that are like ressources, beginner formats is around 1000 army points) it's often around 200-300€, larger armies will be around 500-700€.
It's not cheap, it's a big investment, and there's also a lot of books that you need to buy that also become quite expensive and don't last as long as the miniatures. Honestly, I love these universes, and I loved playing these games, I mostly stopped because I have no one to play with, but I can't really recommend it to anyone, unless you're really ready to invest a huge amount of time and money before playing your first game ^^'
The best way to begin a hobby like that, is probably to try to find a Games Workshop store, or a local gaming club that organize these sorts of games and watch people playing, maybe ask if you can play a game with the miniatures of someone else, to see if it's really worth it ^^
please react to the compilations of tw warhammer 1,2,3 cinematics so you dont miss one, each trailee has a story/lore, reach to single trailer is hassle to watch for some people, for 4 minute clip, its copyright safe, nice reaction anyway, cheers 🍻
The mid 2010, so it was more like 2015-16 ^^
Ulthuan is atlantis
Ok, she actually doesn't know alot about the setting because Kislev WAS a faction in original fantasy but the minis and rules got phased out over the editions, go to "lore crimes" for a better fantasy breakdown.
She knows about the setting, just not the complete history of the game XD
Kislev is a russia/poland/lithuania/ (shortly slavic faction) Well, riders on bears/horses is of course a reference to the Polish Lithuanian Winged Hussar,This girl throws everyone in one bag and talks about the steppes xD She knows nothing about our culture, didn't even say anything about the Cossack. For typical ppl from usa all slavic ppl = russia
they ARE connected. a Grey knight spaz marine appears in warhammer fantasy
Wow, they do?! 👀 cool!
@@OleHerland yeah but its a weird one, GW says the two worlds arnt connected but hint at the grey knight wandering around the chaos wastes
@@OleHerland Also the Norse tribes are your scandinavians and the norse dwarfs
Blablablabla
warhammer fantasy is the board game. warhammer fantasy total war is the pc game.
Thank you for the comment! Gotta get it into my brain 🤞
Lol don't worry about being "cancelled", Warhammer is about the most anti-politically-correct fandom you can find. Everything in it is based on stereotypes. Don't believe me, just read the wiki article on Araby, a faction CA has pointedly decided NOT to include in their Total War series, despite having about as much more as Kislev and way more than Cathay, just because of how un-PC it is.
In this video, you look like you were rejected during casting for the role of Harry Potter and turned to drink.....
Hahahahhha! Thinking about the hair? 🤣 Or something else, 👀😅🫣🤣
