    Relatively new to this world (better affiliated with 40k), I came across your channel through Arch Warhammer. I watched his video on the wood elves and was left hungry for a better understanding of their existence. Your video went above and beyond the call of duty, and I thank you for it.

    I never knew that the Asri went to Naggaroth and all that, like was said before I never was to inretested in Wood Elf's until this video. But now wow ( no wonder Gilead was such a badass ).
    Great job on all of your videos I love them! Thank you for making them.
    I have searched for a Tyrion/ Teclis or High Elf video like this one and I can't find one. I would love to see one this detailed through into the End Times and everything.
    Thanks again for all you videos you are awesome!

    Fascinating. I was going to get Warhammer Total War already, despite my dislike of the Dawi, apathy towards the Empire, annoyance with the Greenskins, and uncertainty about the Vampire Counts. But if there is the chance this lot will show up, I will have something further to look forward to.

    Quick question.
    Is Morghur blessed by nurgle? Since he can be restored again and again ?

    • @GruwskiTheDogski
      @GruwskiTheDogski 8 лет назад

      ***** Ahh that makes more sense! :)
      But why does Morghur want Ariel? is it because she is in fact the embodiment of nature? "aka life"
      I know i'm asking a lot of question further more but i've never really known anything about the woodelves lore in warhammer, i'am just curious because the lore seem very rich and I love the fact that their realm is somewhat a chaos realm.

  • @WuHeDo
    @WuHeDo Год назад

    Now i may be wrong but I can't make sense of this: They sacrifice a " prince " each year for Orion to be born.. that means 1 dies each year. And if i am not mistaken Elves don't make that many babies as often as humans and other races.. First: Is every wood elf a prince / princess ? Second: How aint their society dead yet, with low birth rate and all? I do take into account that in Warhammer there is war and elves die.. Humans grow up fast and reproduce like rats compared to elves. So it just dosen't make sense that they sacrifice 1 elf each year. The wood elves would be dead by default, low birthrate etc ? Or am i wrong?

    Hey dude. I thought this video was pretty good, but especially can't wait for your Dwarf and Greenskins videos. But I had t tiny request I wanted to make of you, if that's ok.

    • @chubbyninja89
      @chubbyninja89 8 лет назад

      That's ok. Well the request I wanted to ask of you may sound like a little odd one from a Warhammer fan.
      But could you possibly do a video or two on the lesser factions like Tilea and such and how they may or may not play out in Total War: Warhammer?
      I just think that even if they're mostly human nations, the lesser factions in Warhammer could be a lot of fun in a TW game.
      Here's a link to one discussion I started
      steamcommunity.com/app/364360/discussions/0/451852571439715420/
      It's about Cathay. Look for a comment by a Reverend Belial and Ysthrall, they actually brought some really interesting stuff up.
      Sorry it's such a long comment.
