Breaking the Geneva Convention in Total Warhammer 3
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 окт 2022
- SKAVEN are a race of very ethical and kind rat creatures, barring their use of various international treaty-breaking weapons of mass destruction. With the release of Immortal Empires, we get to play on a new map with a new mode called ULTIMATE CRISIS MODE. The result? Hundreds upon hundreds of armies to fight, and an endgame crisis like never before.

The fact you "ACCIDENTALLY" Nuked the Capital of the only strong faction you weren't at war with, and THEN proceeded to betray your only long-term ally right when literally everyone else in the world was gunning for your head Is honestly Just Peak Skaven.
Skaven gaming!
Yes-yes! Genius-smart strategy-tactic! Win-win the war-fight!
This was the most Skaven thing I have ever seen a RUclipsr do
Hehe ratling gun go WWWWWWREEEEEEEEBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Truly the skaven experience
Not just that. Doing it at just about the worst possible time for the skaven when the entire world is coming for them he stabs his only ally in the back. Truly the peak of all things skaven.

18:55 “Luckily I don’t think they (the Empire) noticed”. Since canonically the majority of the Empire is in total denial, and even forbidding the belief that Skaven exist, the game logic checks out 😂😂
... why?
@Luis Mendez higher ups think that the common man knowing that there are billions of insane ratmen literally living under your feet all of which are gunning for the chance to horrifically kill everyone you love would be bad to let out. people harp on it as bad lore but its entirely realistic and actual societies have done WAY dumber shit
@@LuisMendez-ru7nj the empire canonically isn’t the brightest to say the least, it’s not that they are naive or stupid, but who is willing to be believe that there are rat men living under them? And if you could prove this, imagine the panick and fear that truth would cause. So you sweep it under the rug and pretend with the others in denial they don’t exist.
@@LuisMendez-ru7nj In addition to the above, it's also due to the fact that the Skaven are absolutely terrifying and would easily wipe out all the other races in Warhammer. Except they're too busy scheming against and constantly betraying each other. By denying their existence and refusing to take any official action against them, they are denied a common enemy against which they could unite.
@@LuisMendez-ru7nj the Skaven, despite outnumbering everything else on the planet by a ridiculous amount, are terrified of too many other races finding out about them, as they are all naturally cowards. So they spare no expense in doing their best to ensure that no one in the Empire even knows Skaven are real, including blackmail, bribery, and assassination.
Fun fact: in Warhammer Fantasy, the Skaven pretty much outnumber every single other race, combined. They have a continent-spanning Underempire that has settlements underneath almost every single other aboveground faction's towns and cities. The average human is usually no more than a few hundred feet away from a Skaven. Usually *many* Skaven.
And the even more funny thing is that a regular skaven (read clanrat) is not weaker than a human and is way more agile so they can actually take on a human warrior in a 1v1 and come out on top its just they are incredibly cowardly so they prefer 20-1 odds
@@narcisoferreira9976 On top of it all, they are also smart enough and powerful enough to go toe to toe with Nagash, but are so cowardly and backstabby that besides that one time, they never did. A united Skaven front would be terrifying as hell... but it will literally never happen
@@Mirro18 Except for that time it did during the End Times and they took out pretty much every faction that didn't have a tabletop army.
@@somewhereelse1235
POV: a continent has just collapsed in on itself.
PancreasNoWork once said “and while yeah, the average single elf is better than one skaven, there is never just one skaven.”
"Seeing as they were outnumbered 5 to 1, we almost lost."
If that isn't the most Skaven shit I've ever heard.
Also, it was pretty stupid of Aranessa to put Ikik Claw into a self-defenses situation.
Something something, cornered nuclear holocaust.

Nice, the 666th like.
I just realized, the small campaign victory basically amounted to the Skaven abandoning the apocalypse and heading to a different island just to save their own hides.
A very Skaven playthrough indeed.

@The Mad Philosopher yes yes
Probably one of the most lore accurate Skaven playthroughs I've ever seen. Especially just noping out at the end there.
Cope inceloid
Yep. The Skaven are absolutely insane abominations, but... they know when it's time to just abscond and find someone else to bug.
XDDDDDDDDDDDDD
"Welp. This is going south very fast-quick. Time to burrow-hide deep-deep underground and wait for it to blow-pass over."
Real lore accurate skaven *nukes moon*
Ikit Claw, a normal morning in Skavenblight : "What-what? Human Altdorf exploded? We forgot bomb-bomb under there? What does that even mean-mean ?"
1:12 Fun fact - in Warhammer Fantasy you normally can't fire ranged weapons into a melee... unless you're the Skaven due to a Special Rule (Some Units and Factions in both Warhammer games have "Special Rules" that actually overwrite the normal rules when/if they conflict) they have... "LIFE IS CHEAP"
betraying your allies at the end to squeeze out the victory is very skaven
I mean they were undead vampires...they would LEGIT betray YOU so it is very much a stab them before they stab you situation lmao, the one time Skaven paranoia actually pays off.

Literally the definition of “Trust nobody, not even yourself.” Take out everyone, even the friendlies.

Yes-yes good thought-idea
Life is even cheaper when you buy in bulk. This has got to be the most lore accurate Skaven video I've seen.
They are not rules. They are guidelines
More like a bucket list
I'd call them 'suggestions'.
they dont exist in warhammer
Literally the Codex Astartes. Guilliman almost popped a vein when he saw his Ultramarines being literal af
Geneva convention? More like Geneva Suggestion
As someone who doesn´t know any total war lore, it looks like the Scaven are the incarnation of the end-times. And I love it
They literally are! They blow up the moon eventually
In the lore the skaven have long since amassed enough power to basically destroy everyone else, its just that most of them are too occupied killing each other to actually go out and do it. So yes they are.
Warhammer is the kind of setting that you could describe several different factions that way.
essentially yes the end times is largely caused by the rise of clan mors finally unifying the skaven and the widespread attrition that skaven cause by burning and pillaging virtually every rural village through tunnel networks culminating in the creation of the Great horned one a new chaos god at the end of the end times
@@oscarThewise good I hate the moon
"We outnumber them five to one and we almost lost" lol😆
I've watched this video like 4 times and the same joke keeps getting me somehow. Worth the subscription back during the first watch
"The enemy got 0 kills, and 75 of our troops died"
That's FANTASTIC
"I love that we've already won the battle and I'm still friendly fireing my own units" most skavin
Thing ever.
Geneva Convention exists:
Skaven: "It's more like guidelines than actual rules"
Ikit Claw: **Insane Laughter**
Also Ikit Claw: **Nukes**
original comment
Oh boy, a to do list!
"It's more like a checklist than anything"
If you don't sign it you no have to follow it
That ending had me in stitches. Truly, you are the best representative of the Skaven playerbase to ever exist.

Starcraft 1 Zealot death sound, literally cannot forget it.
I have discovered a man of class today, and he has earned a subscriber.
“A victory that works in our favor.” *Pyrrhic Victory* Sensational 🤣
Skaven are best, you literally replenish those number loses in like 1 turn lol...
"Hehehe....SENSATIONAL"
As a skaven enjoyer, i felt proud of the ending
Ah, a Man-thing of taste-culture.
I'm extremely depressed that I have to rewatch this video. It's so good and I wish there was more content like it warhammer 3 stuff
imagine being the pirates, your faction slowly building its way up the power ranks as you manage to befriend the Skaven. They actually end up helping you slightly, but they mostly ignore you and your requests for them to assist you in wars. Then when the endgame crisis happens, you're fighting on multiple fronts to stay alive. All of a sudden your Skaven allies approach you, for no real reason as they're also being attacked in their own territories. Are they here for assistance? supplies? You and your crew ask them what they need, and all of a sudden they gun you down for no reason, then all of them begin cheering over your slowly bleeding out body over a "short-campaign victory" as they put it.
7:54 - Most skaven moment in the video.
So true
Yes, he didn't count the reinforcement army though. Which had beasts. He just counted the first chaff army.
The Chemical Weapons Convention of 1997 essentially replaces the Geneva Protocol of 1925 and does ban the production, stockpiling, and transfer of chemical weapons. But Skaven is not a party to the treaty so they cannot be held accountable - a lawyer
I wouldn't even call the last "betrayal" that -- if anything else, Anessa was probably impressed by such scheming! It's on brand - for everyone!
I'm LOVING these warhammer total war videos, nobody does them the way you do with your commentary. Please do more of these I don't care how long it takes for the video or what race it is as long as I get more of this hilarious madness
I enjoyed that, much like a savvy investor, at the end there, you simply cut your losses and while you didn't come out on top- it was fun.
3 friendly fire casualties a second as the Skaven is the most in-lore gameplay I've ever seen.
"Well according to my magic 8 ball 'try again later'" will never not make me laugh. Your delivery of that joke was perfect
“Geneva Convention more like Geneva suggestion”-chuckles the clown from dnd
Not just dnd, legends of avantris
This game asks the question "What if Dr Thrax, GLA from CnC Generals, had a rat fursona?"
Now that is a game that desperately needs a remastered version.
Damn you Windows!
@@Kirkmaximus hell yes! That game was at least 35% of my childhood, and I wish it was more playable now.
It's so difficult to find a doctor that does house-calls these day! But Dr. Thrax still does!
The fact that they made the beast men near ikit claw have 90% resistance to missiles in Warhammer 3 is a really kick in the balls.
yeah that shit happens every time. Just need to autoresolve that problem. And yeah, yesterday i've tried southern realms mod and played bilbali faction, which starting enemy is the morgur himself at turn fokin 1, your troops are smiliar to empire spearmen and 2 damn bad archers. With one weak hero and spellcaster lord (of cous without magic at turn1), so i literally lost 60% of my troops for him. It was my second defeat in campaign in warhammer at all, never have i lost my campaign at turn1...
I must say, I have watched this video a number of times by now, just because the combination of editing and comedic timing is just so entertaining
"We cut down the tree'
*Sylvanas Windrunner greatly approves*
Massive casualties, a blatant disregard for the Geneva Convention and killing more of your own Rats than the enemy?
Yeah, the only difference between this video and me doing that on the table is that I've never won a game with my Skaven.
Yeah? I think you mean…
Yes-yes!
Get hordes of skavenslaves and fire away with poison wind mortars/globadiers into melee, lose 3 skaven per enemy casualty and win
Sounds like-like a skill-talent issue.
I really like your Rimworld videos, but these Warhammer videos are something else. I can't even imagine how much time you put in your videos. Keep it up my man!
5:53 what a great use of the greatest synth mix ever created. Dagoth Ur approves
This video is what got me into Total warhammer. Came back a year later and remembered wanting to play this so badly.
I didn't know I needed this in my life but I don't think I can go without it now that it is in it
Just started checking out this game and franchise recently, I think I'm gonna be really into it for a while
@@TheTGOAC welcome 🙂
Good to see this game nails the skaven lore. I was scared they'd take more damage from enemies and not your own ranged units
I have the flu, and your videos help me stay awake and make me feel just a little better. Thank you
Just found your channel, absolutely love this way of tackling 40K games and your script writing is great and entertaining
The defensive attack against Sartosa was legendarily Skaven
Now, Skaven society is a lot like Soviet society.
There is no food

There is *plenty* of food.

This Video single handily made me love the Skaven
It isn’t fair that China gets two factions, Cathay and the Skaven.
Oh man, wasn't expecting that but certainly made me laugh
Fortunately we also have 2 Chinas
i think that the scaven are supposed to be Japanese XD (the red armor of the storm dudes worrier monks and clan warfare that kind of feels removed from the rest of the worlds politics until they unify to kick your ass)
@@wf1675 There is an actual Japanese faction in the lore, called... Nippon. IIRC the initial Skaven lore had the assassin Skaven (Clan Eshin) learn their crafts from the Kingdom of Ind (three guesses which country that represents), Cathay and Nippon.
@@Malygon the skaven are just skaven. Rats don't discriminate based on geographical location, eastern humans are just as tasty as western humans.
I guess the problem with Skaven in the lore is that they tend to start annihilating one another at some point.
There are too many of them, annihilation is impossible
At some point??? that was happening in the video LOL
friendly fire was turned on from the very beginning xD
"At some point."
Skaven society is literally an endless backstabbing contest at the best of times.
Had a very similar issue at 16:00 but from Orion. For whatever reason he decided to attack us with nothing but himself, Alariel and an army of Giant eagles and flying car. So I focused him and Alariel and let the flying units bug out super hard. Only had a garrison of slaves on that settlement at the time.
Great choice of background music throughout, so nostalgic.
This man played skaven better then 90% of the skaven in the lore. Absolutely loved it please do more.
This is one of the most entertaining commentary gameplay I've ever watched, and its now 6.30am. Thank you
I ran across this video when it came out. Subbed instantly. Binged all your videos. And now I play total Warhammer 3. thank you Mr.Kleaper
Absolutely loving these total war warhammer videos from you and really hoping you do more!
The best part is this is literally just a normal skaven play through.
I was literally wondering what army to play in my first immortal empires campaign. This was my second, but now first choice.
“Bretonnia got 0 kills and we lost 75 people. That’s… fantastic!” 9:02
You’ve really got into the skaven role play here. Lol
The geneva convention just became the geneva suggestion
Morghur's missile resistance is really, really high. Actually the highest base missile resistance in the game, starting at 75 % and improving to 85 % with a basic trait available to him at level 2. But given the fact that he's starting the game next to Ikit Claw that's probably fair 😅
Morghur is a straight up hard counter to Clan Skryre. He can outlast all missile units, even with unlimited ammo and he damages enemy leadership fear which a major problem for most skaven units.
did not expect the Medieval 2 music. Good taste, chief. And there's Brigador. Actually, the brigador music and all those ratling guns, that works nicely. You've just picked all the good music for this. With just about the MOST possible Skaven finish.
Mate, I discovered you fairly recently and I instantly fell in love with the Warhammer videos. I hope to see many more in the future.
Amazing video!!! You were just randomly on my for you page and I loved every second of the video, keep up the good work, hard to find amazing and entertaining Warhammer creators.
as someone who has almost 3 thousand hours in game 2, this video was great and i can imagine very fun even if you dont play the game, if you do however those starting turns may give you anxiety attacks
It's always a great day when kleper posts
I know absolutely nothing about this game or your channel but this is quality content and I'm here for it.
Entertainment value 10/10 . Makes me want to play Skaven on this game now!
That use of the CK3 War Declared music was beautiful. You have now peaked my curiosity and shall be watching your career with great interest

Absolutely love this game and the way you make content with it. Would be cool to have it as ine of the main games on the channel

I am actually really curious how long it takes to record, script, voice over and edit these videos cause, damn, I feel they aren't getting the credit owed sometimes.
Absolute masterwork!
I understand 0% of the gameplay but ur comedy is so on-point I had to watch the whole thing.
THIS perfectly encapsulates the ultimate lust for conquest at the heart of any Warhammer player.
I've watched ths video many times now, and I am still convinced this is the most lore friendly depiction of the skaven ever created.
All things considered you maybe the most compassionate Skaven leader ever
The presentation method used reminds me heavily of SsethTzeentach. Which is good! This was very entertaining, Kleaper!
Praise to the Horned Rat! A skaven video from the grim kleaper!
11:16 Geneva Convention more like Geneva Suggestion. I may play way too much stellaris
Non-stop bangers on the backround music. OG starcraft, Age of War, AND the best soundtrack in all of stellaris and the only one in synthetic god thats not mildly annoying: synthetic god. Loving it man
I swear you use the geneva conventions as a checklist in over half your videos
