    @Janet On Occasion It isn't that the purification hex didn't work on the province, it's that Ironspike belonged to a different province altogether. Specifically the one the Skaven occupied 3/4 of.

    Honestly Mother Ostyanka reminds me of my Grandmother. Probably cause I am slavic and so is she :D.

  • @davidwhitfield6025
    @davidwhitfield6025 Год назад +21

    For some reason I expected Mother O was going to be in Kislev. I can understand moving her out, as Kislev would be overcrowded with factions, but Naggaroth? Didn't expect that. Like once more that they created thematic special stuff for her. I do wish they had made her capitol look more thematic for her and not a Dark Elf city though.

      Make sense it still a frozen area and there is a Enchanted wood nearby, which Ostankia probably has good living condition in unlike almost every faction that aren't Wood Elves or character starting in one. (And chaos dwarf who don't care has it all just just a future industrial wasteland)

    • @JimRFF
      @JimRFF Год назад +14

      While I do recognize the gameplay value of variety in enemies and faction interaction (playing as Kislev and being able to do diplomacy with high elves and lizardmen is pretty neat), lorefully I think it would have made MUCH more sense to make Mother Ostankya a horde faction starting north-east of Kislev, with main enemies being the various Norscans, Kholek, Grimgor, chorfs, and eventually the demons of the Chaos Wastes, securing the safety of Kislev not by occupying and protecting the three core cities but by rampaging through the wilderness destroying any threats before they ever get to Kislev/Praag/Erengrad... playing as Mother Ostankya conquering territory on a different continent feels kinda weird

    • @cadenmcerlean4920
      @cadenmcerlean4920 Год назад +2

      Yeah, I honestly think that some of the decisions with her were influenced by the fact that lots of the things she does would have fit amazingly with some of the Changeling's mechanics, but just giving her the Changeling's mechanics would probably make people a bit put off. For instance, the changeling's ability to put in basically skaven under cities would likely be very good for her, represented as her taking over the forests around the settlement, and being invisible while going through said forests, but then she really just starts feeling like the Kislevite Changeling which isn't what they're trying to go for. Definitely ways to make things fit better, but a bit of a risk of repetition@@JimRFF

    • @shorewall
      @shorewall Год назад +8

      I think Boris could be placed somewhere else, and Ostankya take that area. Ostankya is tied to the land of Kislev, Katarin is the Ruler of Kislev, and Kolstaltyn is vying for influence over Kislev with Katarin.
      Boris just wants to fight Chaos, so he doesn't really need to be around Kislev to do that. Like Volmar, he could take the fight somewhere else to make space in Kislev.

    • @schnitzelfritzel6287
      @schnitzelfritzel6287 Год назад

      I feel like the little game Kostaltyn and Katarin has going kind of ruins the chance of their starting locations from being unique. I feel like Kostaltyn would be perfect for Ostankya's current location. Seeing how one of his very first quest battles are about dark elves "going for his flock", would make sense that he would sail all the way to Naggaroth to retaliate, meanwhile Ostankya should spawn somewhere in western Kislev.

    06:40 Comparing the Dark Elves to pirates massively downplays the threat a Black Ark represents because they are massive floating fortresses that have the capacity to abduct entire towns and villages.

    • @dragonace119
      @dragonace119 Год назад +3

      Black Arks are basically giant floating city-fortresses with the defensive weaponry and garrison being enough dissuade even entire fleets from that area. That's not counting the escort fleet(s) that most Black Arks usually have. Though Black Arks vary largely in size and importance.

      The beast/shadow mix is already perfectly fitting with the hag in the woods theme.
