      Humanity destroys all in the end, and are the source of a great many aspects of chaos. Greed, desire for expansion and many other things are a pox upon humanity. The lizardmen are the ancient protectors, they probably see the short lives and weakness of the humans, mixed with the emotion that they align themselves with so flippantly, to be a crippling detriment unworthy to stand by the side of the lizardmen.
      It's literally in their every action "The Great Plan" a plan so great that it span eons of time, and the lizardmen follow it as a doctrine. Compare that to the short life of a human martyr, general or leader and it shows just how close minded and short sighted humanity is in comparison. It may take countless spawnings and thousands of years for a single tablet of prophecy to come to pass. In that time the entire empire could have grown and then fallen.
      To conclude, the lizardmen simply find humanity to be weak, shortsighted and almost childlike; flailing against chaos' encroachment while the lizardmen stand tall, a bulwark against chaos that show no weakness with their toughened scales, links to the animals around them and countless years spent preparing while humanity bickered amongst itself for land and resources.

      Lizardmen are big good, not big nice.
      Lizardmen generally believe that the other races are unreliable. They have their place in protecting the world, but are just as often means to that end. Lest we forget that time some Slann committed mass genocide of the Dwarves, and ended their civilization almost overnight, because some continents and mountains were a bit out of place, so they rearranged them, which really really sucks to be underground during that move.
      In another way, Lizardmen are less traditionally "good" and more just hardline anti-evil. Lizardmen mostly protect the other races by coincidence, although occasionally a Slann will decide that a given population must be defended for some later purpose.
      Mazdamundi in particular is pretty hardline cold to the warmbloods, and has no problem genociding them for not doing what he wants them to do. Kroq-Gar is, perhaps unexpectedly, probably the single most civil, diplomatic, and "nice" Lizardman figure, as he, fairly uniquely among Saurus, has developed ideas about things like "allies", "future debt repayment", and "letting the warmbloods stuff get burnt down means they can't help later'. He's a real softy. Kroq-Gar is the one that might actually show up to a human city being besieged, for the express purpose of defending it so that Karl "catch these hands" Franz will repay that in sending some guns to shoot up Daemons someday.
      And Skinks, left to their own devices, love humans more than any other Lizardman morph. They think they're delicious.

    The setting, the music and the characters involved give me such a sense of peace and satisfaction.
    Years ago when Warhammer: End Times was finished my friends and I were deeply disappointed with how the entire setting was finished. Chaos wins and everyone dies. In such a bleak and hopeless setting it pleases me to see an uplifting story. This is obviously a human city ravaged by Chaos Warriors and who else shows up to clean up the mess? The big players of the Lizardmen. The sky is clear and a new sun rises over a sieged city. It makes me think of a version of Warhammer where the final battle of the epoch happens as we know it. These warriors of Archaon are looting a city in the heart of the Empire and the guardians of Lustria show up to save what's left of it as the chaos host is killed to the last man or pushed back into the wastes. The forces of order standing together, fates tied to one another, for a new age brighter than anything they have ever had.
    Little fan tales like this warm my heart. I miss Warhammer Fantasy so much for what it was. Thank you.

    • @AveSicarius
      @AveSicarius 3 роки тому +5

      I mean the entire point of Warhammer is that it is tirelessly dark, they even changed the Tau in 40K because people complained "they weren't grimdark enough" (even though having the only hopeful Utopian faction be an infinitesimal portion of the Galaxy with no real hope of survival if the giants turn their gaze to them makes it even darker)... The end was always going to be "chaos wins, everyone dies" it has been building to that crescendo for decades, they held off because the fans liked the setting and it was making money (which is why they haven't done the same for 40K thankfully), the change was also a way to alter the rules and make it more accessible for new players.
      In the End Times Gor-Rok and Nakai were essentially surrounded by a mountain of dead Skaven by their hands. Which is pretty epic. But the world was already done, theoretically speaking, Chaos won the moment the Polar Gates collapsed and the Old One's fled. After that has been sacrifice after sacrifice of the worlds most knowledgeable and powerful heroes, Kroak, Caledor Dragontamer, Anerion, and later down the line Mazdamundi and Kroq-Gar himself, all of these people sacrificed their lives to stem the tide, they delayed defeat more than emerged victorious.
      The only way Chaos would ever have been beaten is if the forces of order had their greatest heroes alive and well, banded together earlier under a single banner, and worked towards that single goal. That didn't occur because Chaos itself turned them against one another (like Tzeentch and his role in the War of the Beard), or they turned on each other themselves (like the other princes turned on Malekith which caused the schism down the line). They were never going to win against a single unified and neverending force. Though I do think the End Times could have been written much, much better (like Manfred perhaps not sacrificing the entire world for his ego at that particular moment). There are small moments of hope, that are drowned out by a sea of darkness, which is pretty much the entirety of the Warhammer universe honestly.

    "A Lizardmen army from Itza marches south across the Culchan Plains. A bridge of magical energy is summoned and the army crosses to the island on which stands the Citadel of Dusk. The High Elves fear a siege, until a fleet of Dark Elf Corsairs attacks from the sea. It is only with the aid of the Lizardmen that the Corsairs are repulsed. The Lizardmen then march back north without a word to the High Elves"

    Now if only the elves could be as hospitable. Truly epic either way, if only more videos could be this way. I hope to see more eventually.

    Bet Oxyotl still did the most damage, he was there the whole time. I love that he is literally in every frame

    Its only when you see them in cinematic you truly appreciate the scale that the Lizardmen are, and what a ridiculously formidable force they'd be.
