🐀 Skaven might be lurking everywhere! What do you think is the most terrifying aspect of the Skaven? Do you prefer their version of Warhammer Fantasy or Age of Sigmar more? We hope you enjoyed this one, making videos about the skaven is always a delight! A huge thanks to Adam R., for bringing the twisted world of the Skaven to life with his narration. More content is coming soon!
I just lost my last and favorite rattling baby to old age yesterday... Alfredo, named after Al Pacino for the scar-like pattern in the fur over his eye. 😢 He was the chunkiest chaos potato and had adorable squeaks. No doubt he will make a great addition to the forces of The Great Horned Rat. Yes-yes.
@@justinhammer3196 I thank you, kindly. I keep wanting to share my scraps with him and remembering he isn't here anymore... 😢 But no worries, my life was better because of him. And I believe their lives are so much shorter so that we may enjoy more of them. I will eventually get more skaven, and I cannot wait until then. I also highly recommend pocket puppies to anyone willing to overlook the negative stigma rats incur. 😅
So awesome you’re finally expanding into AoS! 😍 These lore videos have been my work audios for a long time, such quality content. Would love to get some detailing the Realms like the Realm of Fire or or Realm of Death and going over their surreal realmscapes made of crystallized magic & belief made manifest. 🙏 🌟 Video itself is excellent! Only thing I would’ve added was how some human cultures are taking to the Skaven via worship be it Darkoath tribes accepting the GHR as the 5th god by putting rat marks on their shields or desperate kingdoms near Hel Crown worshipping him as “Good King Gnaw”. 🐀 👑
They are lizard fodder. In Age of Sigmar the mere sight of a saurus is enough to give them heavy PTSD. Lizardmen have always proven to be the best at absolutely destroying the skavens. In the end time (curse this) the Lizardmen were the one fighting the big battle against those pesky warm blooded rat-men, they got absolutely slaughtered by the millions until the moon itself crashed on Itza.
I like the reasoning it’s just because he’s so ancient now living thousands of years longer than any other Skaven has(super crazy for a race that usually dies at 13 years) via numerous science experiments on himself that it’s from his memory going and him growing melancholy about it and immortality… ..before the egomania side kicks back in and he wants to become a fullblown god.
The skaven in Warhammer Fantasy are absolutely terrifying as a concept. Rats that breed uncontrollably, are ravenously hungry all the time, have access to incredibly lethal and advanced technology and have absolutely no scruples whatsoever. It’s a wonder they didn’t devour the world long before the Endtimes rolled around.
I love your videos! They are superb! I especially loved the tension that was created in this one while we were talking about End Times, have you already made videos about it? Are there any planned? Thanks and congratulations again!
Hail the 5th chaos god. The Great Horned Rat. Bringing forth desolation for his domain is ruin. Ever gnawing at our stomachs and ever clawing at our backs.
The Dark King shall ascend in Ruin, Pestilence, and Scheming to take on the Mantle of the Great Horned Rat through Apotheosis with the Sensei and Gray One known by the family name of Kastner. So shall they ascend in ruin by the toll of 13 and the breaking of the final sword forged by the Anathema against the Darkness, and so shall the Children of Great Horned Rat arise from the ruin of Man and Squat upon the world of whom Sejanus lied bleeding and the Wheels of Fate and Heresy turned upon the Warmaster.
While I like that they left The Shaper of the skaven ambiguous, my personal headcanon for WHFB is that it's another chaos god of some varying degree, one that stands apart. They operate in the same way they fashioned Skaven: Move below the surface, downplay the existence when it's convenient and undermine the structures of power for it's own gain.
I always wonderd who the mad man was that created the Skaven. I do believe it could have been Tzeentch, would kinda fit his M.O. of doing random shit to make life a living hell for everyone.
I have always been curious about that too. In the lore (as far as I have been able to research), it/he is known as "The Shaper" so there's that. But I think it is deliberately left to mistery and I kind of like that !
@TheBookofChoyer Oh that is an interesting part of the lore that has somehow escaped my notice. Sounds very Tzeentch like, but I can appreciate were the allure of the unknown mastermind is coming from.
@@derwolf3006 part of the thrill is their shrouded origin with an old poem and yet many questions left and I hope it stays like this. It does not make the lore better to have all questions answered. I was fascinated by fantasy's vampires til I learnt they are just Nehekarans, made their own inferior potion and moved northward and built their own domain and legacy
Woah, hold on a moment there! Chronomatic weapons? As in, weapons that mess with *time*? And they were defeated? Sounds like some Sigmirite plot armour to me!
I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure Mors isn't a great clan. I think they were like the mightiest minor clan and did have their lord on the council but only 1 seat. Gnawdwell was the actual big boss of the Clan, Queek was just the named character we got to use on TT in and in game.
Pther than the greenskins the slaven are definitely one of my original fan favorites. Their models just look so great. I hope you guys do more videos on the greenskins and the ogres again.
Total warhammer 3 needs to update the pestilence dkavens and give them the plague mechanic nurglee has or something similar. Right now pestilwnce and mors are kind s booring to play compate to others skaven choices.
The shaven make almost as little sense as the orks in 40k. Like they breed in the millions. With tiny brains yet somehow they can build some of the most advanced weapons in all of warhammer ?
@@reno239your suggestion is clueless, way more likes then dislikes. You are just a grognard crying and your old system sucks. It died for a goid reason.
This is THE voice of Warhammer for me. Great video.
moving towards AoS, are we? yes-yes, man-things speak-squeak truth about the greatness of the rat-kind, in the service of the One, True God
Yo, the hell is with the insane voice over quality for this video? This is some serious production value.

whats the song you use for the verminlord deceiver section bro??
@kieranb7747 "Whatever Rocks your Boat" by Hampus Naeselius. Hope it helps 🙌👀
They may be monsters, but they are mirrors of our darker impulses. To other races, we are the skaven.
@@TheBookofChoyer thanks my man
All versions of them are terrifying. That's why I love the skaven.
Man,the narrator is so frickin good.

He will be reborn as a rat ogre
@GiggyWiggy2086 that'd be awesome, I could ride on his shoulders like he did with mine! 😂😂😂
Can't get enough from AoS lore, keep them coming 👏🏻

My favourite race yes yes glad you are focusing on aos aswell great work as usual :)
Im so happy to see you covering Age of Sigmar!
Skaven is by far the best race in total warhammer, vermintide, and age of sigmar. Truly a deadly force to be reckoning with.
They are lizard fodder.
In Age of Sigmar the mere sight of a saurus is enough to give them heavy PTSD.
Lizardmen have always proven to be the best at absolutely destroying the skavens.
In the end time (curse this) the Lizardmen were the one fighting the big battle against those pesky warm blooded rat-men, they got absolutely slaughtered by the millions until the moon itself crashed on Itza.
@@trigz8626 lizardmen not being overpowerd (impossible)
Great video I would love more videos about age of Sigmar and fantasy
Always happy to see more skaven. Will you be doing a video on Vizzik Skour?
Ooh new skaven info, my favorite
Thank you for giving the underhive justice my good friend
You definitely need to do more AoS lore.
AOS LORE VIDEO HELL YEAH
The fact that Ikit Claw is in Age of Sigmar, just using the name Ikrit, it make all more funny (?)

More Age of Sigmar videos on this channel would be great 😊
No they wouldn't.
Marketing-safe high fantasy slop
@TaRAAASHBAGS shut up
I love the Flesh Eater Courts and Idoneth Deepkin
Agreed!
@@TaRAAASHBAGSback to your hole grognard. European fantasy gets old.

Man-thing tells greatest-best stories, need more now yes-yes!
I love your vids and I love you dipping into aos
A book of choyer video? 40 minutes long? on the Skaven? with adam narrating?
Someone pinch me
Excellent video, thank you for your work!
Ive never been this early for a video before. Love me some Skaven.
I NEVER get tired of hearing the story: The Doom of Kavzar.
A vid about a ravenous hungry horde, just in time for Thanksgiving! Thanks for video!
Nice coverage mate 👍
Any place-setting we rise-swarm all all! Praise the horned rat! Cower fear his might power!
Love your videos! Keep doing what you're doing! :)
Praise to the Great Horned Rat yes-yes!
Amazing work yet again. The bell tolls for the skaven are coming
Wake the kids wake the neighbours, choyer has posted a new video.
Never underestimate a Skaven's ability to ruin your day and to what form or extreme the ruin takes.
This vid was Fantastic
More AoS content please!!
Always wondered about this! Great vid
Loving this!
So excited for the potential of more AoS content!!!
yes-yes
Always looking forward to watching your videos, yes yes.
Will there be a Night Goblin/ Skarsnik video anytime soon?
After all if the Skaven are so great why don't they control all of Karak Eight Peaks? Taha.
The Dark King shall ascend in Ruin, Pestilence, and Scheming to take on the Mantle of the Great Horned Rat through Apotheosis with the Sensei and Gray One known by the family name of Kastner.

yaayyyy age of sigmar
Awesome! Nice to see some AoS content.
Lizard people>rat men. If skaven are so cool why don't they ride on dinosaurs, checkmate!
Age of Sigmar lets go !!

What happened to Clan Mors, and what's going on with Clan Verminus taking his seat at the council of thirteen?
Wake up babe, book of choyer narrates a new video.
Great video, please do more Aos content.
Depends who you ask. Official line from the city watch says skaven don’t exist….
Imperium : we must re direct the skaven in the octarius war
Bestest and most Beautiful race, yes yes!
Woah, hold on a moment there! Chronomatic weapons? As in, weapons that mess with *time*? And they were defeated? Sounds like some Sigmirite plot armour to me!

So in the new world the skaven got better in every way. Wht does nurgle allow this wish edition of himself to exist.
* lots of excited and deranged rat noises*
I fucking love skaven! I’m backstabbing and plotting as we speak!
Pther than the greenskins the slaven are definitely one of my original fan favorites. Their models just look so great. I hope you guys do more videos on the greenskins and the ogres again.
Question,how come the skavins have guns? Did they invent it first before human did?
Yes yes yes
Right here👉 ❤
Total warhammer 3 needs to update the pestilence dkavens and give them the plague mechanic nurglee has or something similar. Right now pestilwnce and mors are kind s booring to play compate to others skaven choices.
yesYesYES~ Ruin to All!! PRAISE-PRAISE prays Mmmust must to The Great Horned Rat
We all know the tyranids from 40k are actually just running from the skaven
All Skaven want are rotten eggs and peanut butter. Maybe some chocolate chip cookies. They are just misunderstood.
The title is jut objectively wrong the best races are the following in that exact order: dwarfs, Stormcast Eternals, humans.
Can't argue against Dwarfs 🙌
Nah Seraphon are the best.
Filthy warm blood fan *spit*
27:11 wtf this threw me so off did they select a rat with massive pecs and a giant bulge on purpose or did they not fully chek the pictures hahaha
😂😂
I have yet to see sufficient evidence that skaven are real. Clearly just fools mistaking mutants for rat man yes yes.
nno no no we fester in the rot of the old world
The shaven make almost as little sense as the orks in 40k. Like they breed in the millions. With tiny brains yet somehow they can build some of the most advanced weapons in all of warhammer ?
Alas even my glorious rat men proved susceptible to the absolute nosedive in lore quality from the end times onwards.
There are no such thing as ratmen!!! There is cowmen, goatmen and even sheepmen! But thinking There is walking rats is some crazyness
Skaven are the best race in warhammer? I think you’ll find that’s chaos dwarfs
Or if you’re a good person it’s the Empire
Nope.
The Chinese
Skaven are the best because they are the only race GW invented whole cloth.
Lies lies! There's no such thing as a glorious kingdom empire of the children of the Great Horned Rat skittering under the filthy man-things!
AoS yaaaaaaaaawn
Age of Sigmar? The End Times?
Nope, never heard of it
Who cares age of sigmar sucks
Age of Shitmar
@@VergiliosSpatulas Age of Smegmar
Yeah but skaven are always dope

My god man it's been a decade, let it go.
Age of shitmar it is still bad🤮😴🧐
Ugh. AoS was such a terrible idea.
Less age of sigmar videos please! 😊
Cry
@ no thanks! I’m content with my fun game system (hint: it’s not aos!)
@@reno239 Then why are you whining at a video about aos if you're content?
@ I’m not whining, I’m making a suggestion for the RUclips channel! 😊
