Great vid as always Sotek. I think I'd like to consider Sotek an old one, maybe when chaos appeared and the portals stopped working the old ones sent a distress signal off and thousands of years later through conventional travel Sotek arrived with the comet? Just a thought. My vote goes for the Dwarf pantheon!

Wish there was more info about giants. In the gotrek and felix novel "Giantslayer" a chaos sorcerer enthralled a giant into thinking the sorcerer was an old one. The sorcerer himself took immense satisfaction from being called "Ancient One".
I think Sotek is the ultimate weapon given by the old ones to the Lizardmen to fight the chaos gods. They simply decided tofight fire with fire and thus created their own chaos entity to exterminate all other chaos entities. Sotek has a lot in common with Malal (Malice, the renegated god), who is the bitter enemy of all chaos gods despite being a chaos god himself.
Is there any information on the Pre Old One races? You mentioned Dragon Ogres in another video, and you mentioned orks here and dragons are another, were there any other races other than these?
+Loremaster_of_Sotek i actually started to tone out your voice and started mouthing the words of the song haha. Countless hours spent playing Rome 1 seared this song into my mind and flashbacks of destroying the greeks and and gauls came flooding back. this was my first TW game and i was hooked after 10 minutes of playing!
Ha, the picture at 8:20 came from Heroes of Might and Magic 5, which ripped so much stuff from Warhammer. They even had to change some units to avoid a lawsuit.
Nice! I'm playing TW:WH at the moment, and I know next to nothing about the lore. Is there a good place to start this whole lore series? Or is this video the one?

Could it not be possible that the Old Ones purposely destroyed their portals to stop the Chaos Gods from physically entering the realm and slaughtering their creations? Also couldn't the war in the Heavens still be raging between Chaos and the Old Ones? That's why they haven't been able to recreate the portals, etc.
or they are being block from contacting to mortal realm by chaos god or they are taking other name to contact to mortal realm to avoid chaos god personal assault on specific race lead to their completely doom. If iam a chaos god even with the smallest hint of being like old one try to interfere with my prey, iam going to destroy that hint and everyone around that hint as fast as possible.

Cross-over idea: What if the Emperor from 40k was one of the Old Ones? Or one of the Shaman were an old one who lead them and was hell-bent on completing the Old Ones mission of making mankind the perfect being to defeat Chaos?

Great vid, the music in the background made look behind me multiple times :P
Thank you for making this
The old ones should of made the Space Marines.
Me:BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!!
Loremaster of Sotek: No no a pantheon.
Me:SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE!!!
8:20 this is a picture from Heroes of Might&Magic V !!!! Damn, I struggled to remember :D

and now the Lizardmen themselfs has become deamons of order and are now able to acctually really be able to defeat chaos
i hope we get to see some greater deamons of sotek. like giant serpent like lizardmen, maybe nagas
well if they ahde new models i fear we´d see lizardmen in power armor and the word "storm" Or "star" all over it. god damn age of sigmar
Is there any information on the Pre Old One races? You mentioned Dragon Ogres in another video, and you mentioned orks here and dragons are another, were there any other races other than these?
Nagash! And the Nehekharan Gods!
+AkatsukiBoss13 I secound this!
big ups for Sotek, clearly.
Nice isn't that the RTW 1 song
+Loremaster_of_Sotek i actually started to tone out your voice and started mouthing the words of the song haha. Countless hours spent playing Rome 1 seared this song into my mind and flashbacks of destroying the greeks and and gauls came flooding back. this was my first TW game and i was hooked after 10 minutes of playing!
+MrAgnosticman about a month maybe two I got TWR 1 for £2.00
Ha, the picture at 8:20 came from Heroes of Might and Magic 5, which ripped so much stuff from Warhammer. They even had to change some units to avoid a lawsuit.
Gork and Mork
the lake lady and who was her plase
Please do one on negash, I would enjoy that.
The soundtrack in the back is from Rome Total War right?
Name of song?
Nice! I'm playing TW:WH at the moment, and I know next to nothing about the lore.
Is there a good place to start this whole lore series? Or is this video the one?
This is a decent start but Loremaster has good ones for most of the individual races/nations
8:20 songname? Recognizzz
Mork and Gork
Why not just use the Lizardmen army to destroy the Chaos gods? Lizardmen feel nothing so they're pretty much perfect warriors against chaos.
Could you talk about the Horned Rat and the Skaven?
***** Skaven are the best! And the Horned Rat is the Greatest of gods!
There’s no such thing as “rat men” or rat gods stop this crazy talk! Sigmar preserve us!
@@alejandrosantana5693 necro!
Gork and Mork (Or Mork and Gork!)
Hey your name is Sotek - The Serpent God of Sotek
Do Lemmy next.
Damn i recognized the rome total war soundtrack in the back. I loved that fucking game.

Oldhammer lore makes me moist

Nagash!

Yes, they are gone, but is it for sure that they will never return? You can't be certain of that;)

space is not cold
Cross-over idea: What if the Emperor from 40k was one of the Old Ones? Or one of the Shaman were an old one who lead them and was hell-bent on completing the Old Ones mission of making mankind the perfect being to defeat Chaos?
How about the lore of the age of sigmar? As it is a confusing mess?
Cant even tell me fantasy isnt in 40k
High Elves.
Man sotek, your videos have really improved since this one. Do an update/remake!!
so essentially the old ones are aliens and the lizard men are like the myans.
Necrons killed 'em.
Hashut
Obamanations.
To bad non of this matters anymore
Hahaha the creation of the races is a blatant copy of Tolkien's lore, just more science fiction-y.
How? The creation of the races in warhammer was done to find a way to defeat Chaos.
In Tolkiens works the Valar created the races because they could.
