      I heard multiple audio drops in the span of 1:10 to 2:30, not sure wtf that's about, just thought I should mention it. Seems to have smoothed out by 3:10, but now it's come back around the 10:10 mark when you're talking about archers.

      Honestly the laboratory is a useless piece of content that they shouldn't of wasted anyones time with. The majority of games online aren't even on ultra unit setting, and you'll be hard pressed to find a game with more than 4 players that doesn't lag already. Most people are concerned about having a smoother game, or maybe they could of gotten us another free lord. A tool to break the game is "fun" for maybe 1 use and was not worth the time and money they spent on it. Why commercial for abortion gamemode anyways? Why not give the new scaven lord a commercial? I would call that a waste also but i would at least understand it. It's like they don't realize how to make a game. ER DS, I would be surprised if you've ever even used the laboratory with such a cheery attitude towards what is the worst addition so far to a total war:warhammer game. And your ignorant fanboy blabbering is making my games shitty so please don't keep spreading your opinion you obviously formed from watching a commercial.

All put together along with more unique traits.

      If it never looses its potency does that mean when warpstone is "consumed" that the skaven piss it out later? Or does it only loose its potency when it's inside a living thing?

    "Most precious of all substances, the pulse of our life. If the Horned Rat is our father, then surely, Warpstone is our mother. Its uses are infinite. Like the heart of an endless fire, it is. Even the smallest of pieces will continue to give power indefinitely, allowing many of our devices to become somewhat portable. Warpstone fire can not only consume a substance, but actually change it’s structure to far more than just ‘burned’ due to exposure to it’s holy flames. Weapons made from Warpstone produce their own poison. A Warpstone charm brings real luck, changing what ‘was to be’ to what ‘might have been’ with none the wiser. So where does it come from? There are those among the more superstitious of our folk and a few foolish Grey Seers that believe Warpstone is the leavings of the Horned Rat. I subscribe to the secular view - that it is chunks of the dark moon, Morskrit, which has managed to gift us with pieces of its essence. Dangerous it is; to touch Warpstone often. But that’s what slaves are for, yes-yes?"

    As I always understood it, Wyrdstone was technically different, because it was a safer form of Warpstone. In rare cases, by random chance of circumstances, Warpstone would form in a more stable or pure state, and be much safer to use - Wyrdstone. Not saying its a different substance altogether, just that I believe there IS a difference between the two, sort of like how there's a difference between coal and diamond even though they're both made of carbon.

    2:02 Intresting point is, that Chaos gains the form you believe in. That means that even it is always the same warpstone, means not it function everytime in the same way due to Chaos works. So if I have a warpstone it will heal me, because I believe in it, while the same warpstone will kill me, if a skaven touches it because I believe in that the warpstone is now corrupted. If you use a warpstone it gains the ability you believe in, think thats how Chaos works(?)

That one's definitely from Slaanesh! | 6:30 - To the Shaven, terms like "safety" and "caution" are for the weak and stupid races. | 11:00 - Yeah, why risk yourself, when you have those less important to do it for you. | 16:00 - The same "race" as the Tomb Kings, the reason why they're all undead in the first place.

    When using Warpstone, you aren't necessarily using Chaos energy, imo. When it was the Realm of Souls, it was just the power of emotions and the scattered souls of the dead.
    You could explode if you took in too much power, but that was it. A Psyker is just a computer filling up his battery; a battery that can burst itlf it is overcharged.
    The warp is the same way, but you have the chance to get a virus, aka, a demon when you plug yourself into it. Warpstone is just the power of the more chaotic (lower case c) than the Realm of Souls is, but the power of the warp is not daemonic. It's just a faster flowing stream of energy than the Real of Souls had which was slower and more smooth.
    That being said, when a Psyker called on the power of the Realm of Souls, it was like a gentle stream flowing into you and you could probably hold open longer without exploding whereas the Warp energy flows into you quickly and you have to unleash it quickly.
    In essence, the Realm of Souls was like the primordial soup. It was little proteins with no life in it (beside the Eldar and Old Ones, but they didn't try to possess you). The Warp is still Primodial soup as in its just like organic compounds; it's non-sentient, but it is chaotic (again, as in fast flowing, not Chaotic with a capital C. That's daemonic energy). The Psyker is drawing on the warp and he just has the chance to pull in Chaos energy as in a daemon infecting his computer, aka, his brain.
    So, imo, no, Warpstone isn't the power of Chaos. It's just the power of the warp. HOWEVER, the Warpstone you are using may not just be non-sentient energy. It may be, in fact, a crystallized DAEMON waiting for some sucker without wards or mental protection to come by and use it. That would open them up to possession. OR. Or it may be that the Warpstone can open up a gateway to the warp which with allow nearby daemons to flood through, but the Warpstone, itself, is not Chaos energy. It's just non-sentient energy from the immaturium.

    Bonus Fact. Before a minotaur can claim his place as the guardian of a temple or shrine dedicated to the Dark Gods, part of his initiation (after killing the previous guardian, of course) is to bear-hug and lift a massive hunk of warpstone. He must do this until he either succumbs to uncontrollable mutation and death, or is deemed worthy by the Chaos Gods and receives their blessing. At such time, the burns he received from holding such a massive amount of warpstone against his body are transformed into runes and words of power carved into his flesh, and he spends the rest of his life guarding the temple or shrine, offering up the possessions of those who might attempt to plunder said temple or shrine as tribute to the Chaos Gods.
