Warhammer Fantasy Lore - MORDHEIM: The City of the Damned
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 гру 2019
- In this episode we explore the city of Mordheim in the world of Warhammer Fantasy. The setting makes for the perfect battleground to fight skirmishes where the swift and brutal clashes are decided by a handful of warriors. For the making of this video I used some clips from the “Mordheim: City of the Damned” trailer, as well as the “Warhammer Vermintide 2: Winds of Magic” trailer and in-game footage of Total War: Warhammer 2.

This episode was originally planned to be shorter than it actually is, but with a little help from awesome people, it turned out to be a bit longer. Please check out the video description for the full details, credits and links of interest. A very special thanks to the channel Patrons who are making these videos possible 🔥
The Book of Choyer and hopefully some comments from your subscribers (including myself) could’ve gave a good suggestion right? This topic is exactly what I asked and you replied back with this wonderful video and of course you commented it’s coming soon... thanks
Awesome video as always. I wonder though, the outro-segment (the reprise end of the video) contains music that is uncredited. The song is -awesome-, so I was very curious as to what song and what artist is behind this song? Feels very familiar... :)
I love's this Channel!
En argentino:
Me re encanta tu canal y tus videos, muy bien hechos!
Welcome back man I was afraid you guys were gone forever!!!❤❤❤ 😅👍🙏
That was awesome. Great job!
I'm starting to think these imaginary rat men that don't exist might be a real problem
@MR KAGE Heard there was a specific clan of imaginary rats that eats imaginary rat poison for breakfast. But it's fine, Cause they are all imaginary :')
Nope fake news
Yes Witch Hunter, this man right here
All the cats have gone missing, my pleb.
@@Croydondebruyne oh yeah?Would you explain all the mysterious deaths that has happened around the empire?Or the fall of mordhiem?
"Those who enter the city are never seen again."
*shows Gotrek*
Me: uh...
Puddle Zerg bruh haha
He is an exception
Technically, he entered the city long after its destruction ;).
I had the weirdest dream last night that a skaven army like full on with siege weapons, weapon team units, canons, catapults shows up at the gates of altdorf and everybody ignores them cause they not real(obviously) which gives the skaven an identity crisis and they walk away all depressed
"Do not ignore Queek! I am the mightiest warrior-champion of Mors!... Aren't I?"
@@Cracken_"did you heard that Hans?"
"Must've been the wind Karl, lets carry on with drinking our beer"
Skaven crying in background
Even taken out of the Warhammer IP, Mordheim would make an absolutely brilliant setting for a dark fantasy TV/film series.

Had a blast voicing this one! So much awesome information! Hopefully I pronounced everything right, and don't worry guys, I got Von Carstein right this time lol
Amazing job as always brother!
I noticed :D Good job on these. Keep it up.
meh
sounded like he was trying too hard to be the Warhammer Invasion guy from FFG
if you know what i mean
@@Utubesuxmycock He did great
You did an awesome job! Didn't even know that lead (the material) was pronounced like that :D
And finally the "Comet of Cassendora" makes sense :)
do you get to the flying horse district very often? oh what am i saying, of course you dont
No, we tried to get there but the entire district is controlled by a sketchy warband. 😐
I'll have you know there is no pusssssaaaaaAAYYYY
@Jehovah but have you heard of the high elves?
Mordheim was also the original home of the mad Baron Lothar Von Diehl, a nobleman turned necromancer who ended up serving under the infamous dark sorcerer Vanhal, around the time of the Skav- er, the "creatures-that-do-not-exist" Wars.
That could never happen to Altdorf
Fortify Fortify!
Build walls around the sewers should do it!
(⌐■_■) am I supposed to be here?
@@ajhiep4447 youre filthy kind couldn't even enter the Well maintained Sewsers of Altdorf (even if you have existed which you obviously don't )
@@karlfranzemperorofmandefil5547 man-thing will get aids from skr-skrolk yes-yes.
I like the Sisters of Sigmar. I hope they’re added to TWWH2. Their’s is a sad story. They were excommunicated from the main branch of the Order of Sigmar. Some have become Vampires, but their faith in Sigmar means they do not feel pain by his symbol. So interesting!
Where did the vampire thing come from? Source? 1d4chan isnt a reliable source.
@@pingASS_ 1d4chan.org/wiki/File:Lahmian-nuns2.jpg
This comic panel, no reference to it in the WHFB wiki though but there is a lot of information found on one page but not another, Nuln's many sackings for example aren't found on the Nuln page but rather in various Greenskin warboss pages.
i think sfo has this in their unit tree
long_schlong_silver isn’t the lahmian sisterhood a totally different faction? Never heard anything about sisters of sigmar joining them.

Welcome to Mordheim, city of the damned.
Mordheim is the xcom of the Warhammer universe and I bloody love it
I guess should could say now that "they can't feel you, they can't feel your touch"
I'm really pleased you kept the Skaven lore accurate and it also just confirms how powerful and deadly Clan Eshin Assassin's were in being able to successfully keep an entire city a secret from rival clans.
It was Mordheim tabletop Skirmish that got me into Skaven and GW and my loyalty to Eshin has never waived!
As a one off, it would be cool if you did a lore film on Veskit Executioner, who was a special character for the Skaven in this game and is in my opinion underrated in the WH world.
Love the film's, keep it up! 😉
3.6 chaos corruption. Not great, not terrible.
Nice. . .
nice
just like doing a trip along the norse sea
You didn't see man sized rats. YOU DIDN'T! BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT THERE!
Lots of skulls on the buildings in Mordheim, wonder if anyone had a "Han's, are we the baddies?" moment before it got flattened. :-)
I'm still amazed by the production quality - another great piece by all involved. The narration and the visuals are all very neatly tied together.
The shadow lord is Be'lakor.. It's quite clearly written in the hordes of chaos army book.
I truly enjoy these videos you do a great job!! I do a lot of RPG's like warhammer fantasy and these lore videos help me get my facts right along with making a lot of stuff for players in the short sessions i run. Thank you very much for doing a great job at this. You got my support!
I'm glad to hear that sir! Thank you😃 Wish you the best with the RPGs you run!! May they be full of adventure
One more great example of warhammer having the most subtle of names.
Hopefully CA makes a special map for this city one day would be cool if you had to fight for capture points in a free for all to gain control of the ruined city and it's warp.
You do deserve far more subscribers
Thank you, chosen of Sigmar 🙌
MORDHIEM man. . . . .what a party
I really like the videos that are more lore heavy and lighter on the video game battle re-enactments. This video was amazing!
What a good game was Mordheim, city of the DAMMED !!
RIP Town Cryer, he was an innocent soul who just wanted to help
Skaven are the biggest threat the warhammer world has ever seen, way bigger then Chaos invasions.
Bruh thanks to Archaon the world blew the fuck up.
Derp Herp without Ikit blowing up the chaos moon Archaon would have lost if the Slan priests stepped in.
If the Slan priests didn’t exist Ikit would have destroyed the entirety of the world with the continent sized shards of the chaos moon crashing into the planet after the blew it up haha
I mean, Chaos cannot be stopped.
The Skaven could be in theory.
@@CalamityDiamond If we ignore End Times, as we all should, Chaos is a far bigger threat.
Derp Herp mm no I’d still argue the skaven would be if they united for longer than a day.
A Warhammer rpg like the elder scrolls Skyrim would be unbelievably successful if they would make it
Just not Skyrim - the writing/dialog/characters are beyond bland....nothing you do actually have consequence...
Skyrim and Fallout 3/4 suck though. Even Oblivion is iffy.
You guys might be one of the best warhammer fantasy chanels out there!
Great video The Book of Choyer, your channel are one of many favorite warhammer channels that I enjoyed watching.
Excellent content. I'm an old player of the pen & paper RPG (1st and 2nd edition), and these vids are making me very nostalgic.
I've got Mordheim: City of the Damned sitting in my library untouched for far too long. The cinematic at 11:04 made me open it.
Edit: I know.
Edit2: I also have that in my library.
Mordhiem would have been such a good vermintide 2 dlc
I used to play the tabletop for Mordheim when it came out .It was cheaper i could let my friends use my models. Also there was more than just a battle it had a good system for it.
Love Mordheim and I watched this video last night for Halloween, a perfect time to preview the City of the Damned.
Mordheim is german and can be translated with Murder Village
Mordheim: "It is a sign from Sigmar!"
Sigmar: "Lol yeet"
What a very beautiful lore video, I'm glad I found this.
Glad you enjoyed it!😃🙌🏼
Man I really love all your videos you got me into warhammer so much keep up the good work !
Your lore videos are top-notch, I am loving them! Keep up the great work my dude!
Thanks a lot Matt 🙌
20:00 Oh, that wicked flatulence! :D
Love your lore videos, they're well written, edited (love the details with the models/figures!) and narrated. The latter being a very important detail for me personally, as I've come across lore videos where the narrator isn't as easy to listen to. So yeah, keep up the good work guys! :D
Hey I really appreciate that man! I'll be sure to keep the narration interesting and easy to listen to
@@skrubasauras You're welcome! I'm looking forward to you guys' next video!
You'd think that there'd be some kind of alliance between the Imperial factions, a non-aggression pact if nothing else, but that's Warhammer for you.
Hey man, just found your channel a few days ago and i really like your work! Thank you so much.
Fantastic, just got back into this game recently :)
First.
Because I'm a patron W/ early access.
If you desperately want to comment 'first' on any video of Choyer consider becoming a patron.
It helps the channel out tremendously and allows for even more and greater content. 👍🏻
Thank you! 🙌🙏
I don't know how you make these videos, but they are excellent, wonderful really. Thanks :)
Mordheim lore is peak Warhammer, even better than the Horus heresy.
great video i love these videos
I'm wondering why I'd never watched this superb video before now. My bad, but a four year belated thank you )O(
Why the heck is there not an action RPG pc game set in the Warhammer Fantasy world? There is so much great lore to flesh out a world with. The Elder Scrolls would have nothing on a Warhammer game.
There is vermintide and vermintide 2 I play on Xbox and it's fun af
VERY nicely produced.
SO well done!
I knew I was sleeping on a good game. Thank you for bringing me to the light my brothers. For Sigmar! For the Empire!
If you wanna hear FOR SIGMAR THE HAMMER AND THE EMPIRE alot play Victor saltzpire in vermintide 2
Thanks for making this video. Mordheim is the highest form of Warhammer fantasy on the tabletop.
Mordheim sounds like the fantasy equivalent of Necromunda.
Awsome vid again Choyer!
Thank you brother!! 🙏
Amazing work
What a great wonderful video! Thank you!!!
I just want Veskit to be added into TWW2. Who cares how dead he is, just imagine him as a legendary hero, oh how i will smile
Keep up the good job lads.Sigmar wills it.
😃🙏
These stories are phenomenal!!!!
This reminds me of The History channel
Man I loved the old shows of the History Channel. 👌
Skaven! Yes-Yes!
Wow, this is such a high quality video...
awsome i love your work so much!
Thanks for this! I really like your video, even more Fun is that a friends Mordheim warband is featured in it :)
Great video!!👍🏻🎉💪🏻
Thanks for the videos!
I love these stories they are my weakness you got to do more. Im being converted to Warhammer!!!
Great video as always! This story is just perfect for a PnP-Campaing!
-Prosperous city.
-Rare material appears in the city.
-The material can heal almost any sickness.
-Being exposed to the material either drives people mad and/or turns them into beastmen and mutants.
-The few normal people still living there only come out during the bright of day because during the night, mutants, monsters and hunters fight amongst each other.
Is this Bludbjôrn?
Where now?
Is this a game trailer? Cause it does one hell of an advertising job, definitely buy the game 10/10
Mordheim City of the Damned is a great game!
If you like frustration it is a very good one
Superbe merci pour cette decouverte.
GREAT VIDEO!!!
Narrator says the words: ''green stone''
Me: ''collect we must yes-yes!''
I just noticed I wasnt subbed, ive been watching since 20K subs.
Ive just been getting recommendations whenever the Book of Choyer posted
7:10 Shall we say the power of the warpstones are a pathway to many abilities some consider to be ...unnatural ? ^^
Nice, got the game last week, now a video on it. Pretty fun fantasy xcom.
How are you liking the game so far? I've been curious to try it myself. 🙂
It's fun, been mainly playing skaven, Haven't delved too far into the story as the story missions are fairly tough, If you ever played any of the new xcom games, it plays very similar. Main differences are that is uses an initiative system similar to DnD and the camera's primarily 3rd person with top down being used as more of a map. You go on missions, outfit your warband, add more people to the warband, hunt for as much warpstone as you can while not leaving your warband thin enough to be picked off one by one. sell the warpstone for money to prepare for the next mission. The only real complaint i have would be the visuals for the vampires, they look very cheesy 1960s dracula style rather than the approach total war took.
@@Drakefance5 if you equip the vampires with heavy armor they actually look cool as hell
@@FelipePetersBerchielli Good to know, might consider playing them at some point.
Oh boy new video, oh boy oh boy
Have a drink every time he says wicked
You’re telling me Mordheims capitalism was so bad that Sigmar had to send a comet to destroy the city? Huh I have a cult to start I guess
If anyone wants to read Mordheim material and rules there's a site called Broheim that has it all
This makes think how cool a Chaos Cult faction would be in Total War Warhammer 2
Beautiful
I like how even their gods are Occupy Wall St
Dude I was WANTING a Mordheim lore video
Hope you enjoyed it Samuel! :D
The Book of Choyer I loved it so much! I can’t wait for more!
@@samuelmanlangit7407 thank you! Well, a new one just dropped. Hoping you'll enjoy that one too, this time is about Grimgor Ironhide.
THANK YOU
It just occurred to me that Mordheim could be the perfect setting for a Ravenloft domain..
Mordheim got implemented as Dungeons of Drakkenheim by the Dungeon Dudes, very cool!
Masterpiece.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Mordheim translates into - "dead home". Quite the fitting name in my opinion.
I'd say "Murder home" is a more accurate translation
@@wildimbild4673 correct
I used to never care about shaven, honestly didnt like them much. You however, when you cover their lore it gets me so hyped for them.
Ah so Mordheim is still inhabited. By others than Skaven, I mean. I always thought only adventurers in search of treasure go to Mordheim.
At 11:47, where is that image from? Is it a manticore or some Skaven-dragon hybrid? Great video as always though!
It is a wallpaper from the videogame "Modheim: City of the Damned" 🐀
It's a manticore.
1:19 What is the name of that bridge? It got to be ''Niggle Bridge'' right?
The skaven are like America
example
USA: DID I HEAR OIL??
Skaven: DID I HEAR-HEAR WARPSTONE?
Wait ... is that a Skaven knight riding a giant beetle? 23:50 I've never seen that mini anywhere where's it from?
Hi! The miniature owner here. It’s a pig knight riding a gigantic flea, carrying the title “Sir Swine the Flealancer Knight”. I built this miniature based on Mordheim artwork from the old rulebook to use in my warband of other miniatures based on the artwork.
So it's basically one big battle royal?
...I apologize for making that analogy.
With spawn camping galore.
Man this would be a great setting for a Warhammer RPG.
Agreed.
