- Missed out on some trailers in part 1, so here's a separate video covering the rest of the Total War Warhammer 2 cinematic trailers. Honestly, I'm kinda warming up to the Skaven. They seem to bring really fun and chaotic warfare wherever they go.

Total War Warhammer 3 soon. In the meantime you can check out my other videos for Warhammer 40k and Fantasy here: ua-cam.com/play/PLNQYQVYEGRpLsnpJXSCL0tepvfE-27qaX.html
9:00 that little lizard guy is Oxyotl. A chameleon skink. The Unseen Hunter. A total badass who has been killing demons since the First Great Chaos Invasion millenia before the start of the main story. The reason he lived that long is cuz he was lost in the Realm of Chaos where time is irrelevant and war is eternal.
Suffice to say, that little skink is the Lizard version of the Doomslayer.
he's effectively lizardman doomguy.
The child of Rambo, the Doomguy and a predator
Weilding the Golden Blowpipe of P'Toohee
funny thing about Grom the paunch, he is a goblin that was forcefed troll meat, trolls constantly regenerate so the meat in his gut kept growing until he was the size he is now and it ended up giving him the power of regeneration aswell as a horrible hunger, which goes into one of his faction mechanics where you cook food from bits you gather from other factions like dwarf ale or things from the sea to make him and his armies stronger
That's one version. Another version says Grom willingly ate the troll meat as part of a dare. And while Grom has gotten bigger and fatter, he doesn't really eat that much to maintain his gut, but CA wanted to lean into the 'Haha! Funny fat goblin!' angle, because it's easy to work with.
Never heard of that version then again it wouldn't be Warhammer without confusing lores that can change on a whim, I prefer the one I listed though as it's pretty funny a bit of torture for fun resulted in the biggest goblin ever
@@Nightmare_52 Yeah, Grom is an old character, and there's basically two versions of the story of how he became the fat bastard we know and love today. One says he was forced into eating the troll meat for the amusement of the Orcs in his tribe, while the other says he willingly entered an eating contest and chose to eat troll meat.
Either way, Grom spent WEEKS teetering on the edge of death as his body fought to digest the troll meat in his guts, suffering horrendous agony and flatulence, much to the amusement of his tribe. Eventually, his body acclimated to the troll meat by taking on its regenerative qualities, although the meat is presumably still in his gut to this day, fueling his continued growth, freakish strength, and tremendous girth while giving him HORRENDOUS gas.
Grom then proceeded to conquer his own tribe and the local orc and goblin tribes before embarking on one of the the single most successful military campaigns the Warhammer Fantasy world has ever seen through a mixture of luck and his own competence in the face of one of the most ineffectual and cowardly Emperors in Imperial history. Then he got bored with curb-stomping everybody, took up chariot racing as a hobby, and then at the behest of a crazy Orc Shaman decided to completely fuck off from the Old World and sail across the sea and blindly drift to Ulthuan, the lands of the High Elves. Because he thought that would be more fun.
And let us not forget Grom's eternal hype-man Niblet, a goblin who somehow managed to survive getting sat on by Grom for hours and wound up having a religious experience from having his poor nose pressed right up to Grom's ass-crack. The horrors he must have witnessed...
its no wonder he is so jolly all the time, anything is better than that horrid experience
@@Brutalyte616 To be fair, Grom was also a notorious hedonist so him stuffing himself with "fine" food wouldn't be at all unusual for him. That and one of his goals in the campaign is to get even fatter (which gives actual permanent buffs) so there's that.
The chameleon skin in the last trailer is known as the doom guy or john wick of fantasy, snikch the skaven assassin is so good at his job the rule of thumb is if he has a contract on you you are dead. Ikit Claw is the head of clan skryre and most well known for inventing nukes and destroying a moon
Ikit Claw is not the head of Skryre, he's just one of the most notable members.
Edit: unless you mean he's the head of it in the game, since the game doesn't include any of the actual heads of the clans.
The Vermintide has a complete disregard for their own ranks. They're just as likely to gun down their own rats if it means the enemy is also caught in the crossfire. And they use double speak.
"We will shoot the manlings, yes-yes!" They have a mix of Florida man and Bear Grylls. It's kind of legendary in that regard. The Skaven also have a dark God called the Great Horned Rat. Is it a chaos God? I don't know, but he's delightfully spooky.
Ikit Claw's manic laughter as he drops a nuke in a fantasy world lives rent-free in my head.
The skaven gameplan is just: "how many slaves do i have to throw at the enemy until it dies via saturation bombardment/chemical warfare/stupid amounts of dakka?" or alternatively: "Sneak-stab with a warp-nuke! Yes-yes."
Oh nice, the missing trailers, they're the best of the bunch, and there's a lot to talk about these lol. As you spotted, the first one is indeed a Predator reference.
Hunter and the Beast is a big Jurassic Park reference, Shadow and the Blade is Dirty Dancing, Warden and the Paunch is half a The Dark Knight reference for the elf side (after all Eltharion is elf Batman), and a Mad Max Fury Road reference for the Greenskins. And Twisted and the Twilight is a Frankenstein reference on the Skaven side.
Also as you guessed, the Skaven leader Snikch in the Shadow and the Blade is a master assassin from the Eshin clan. The dark elf is Malus Darkblade, protagonist of the books of the same name, and he is possessed by T'zarkan, a Slaanesh greater deamon.
And for the last trailer, the little skink is one of the most badass lizardman in the setting. He is fucking ancient, he witnessed the very first Chaos invasion and got accidentally sent to the Realm of Chaos. As a chameleon skink he managed to stay hidden in it until the Realm spat him out far in the future. He got out of the Realm. Of. Chaos. in one piece and uncorrupted. The Slaan straight up refused to read his mind about what happened because they fear even they wouldn't resist the corruption and madness.
Fun skaven fact the are all super addicted too those green rock tge have called warp stone that is basacly magical crack that the use for everything, and the also talk speak like this yes yes
Which is the same green rock in throts eye and why he has 3 arms, huffed too much warp dust
@@Nightmare_52 and also 3 times as much hunger as "normal" skaven
Since I haven't seen anyone say it, the giant walking croc is known as Nakai the Wanderer he has been around since the first time the Daemons invaded.
He fought on a bridge and killed so many that Daemons will straight up not go to that bridge.
The Minotaur in the last one is Taurox the Brass Bull a Doombull that killed so much that Khorne blessed him with brass skin and a fire within. Think Achilles with his weak spot.
the giant rat with the power armor is Ghoritch the Castellan of Hell Pit. he was a norscan berserker but after he lost Archaon The Everchosen give his body to Throt the Unclean. so Throt made a rat ogre body and put Ghoritch's brain in side it. Ghoritch is all so the prototype version of the Stormfiends.
Ghoritch wasn't the prototype for the Stormfiends. That "honor" goes to the poor packmasters that Throt grafted onto a group of normal rat ogres who attacked everyone in revenge. He later fixed that issue by breeding special, submissive Skaven with deformed bodies but large brains that could handle the job better. It wasn't until his trip to Skavenblight though where the Stormfiends where truly created as he work together with Ikit Claw who would give them a few of his weapon prototype that where too big to be used by normal weapon teams.
Besides that, Ghoritch never fought Archaon. He was send to Hell Pit by Archaon as a punishment for going against his orders.
@@pile-o-nonsense3688 i said he was his general when he lost in a battle archeon give the body to hell pit.
@@orben-amos6172
Ah, sorry, my bad. I misread that part of your comment.
@@pile-o-nonsense3688You missed it because it's not there lol. Guy must've thought he mentioned it and Mandella Effect'd himself.
0:44 This is a Shot for Shot remake of that one scene from Predator, like a side-by-side comparison shows just how close it is.
00:00 "Is he OK?" I thought you had seen several hours of Warhammer lore by now
You right, my bad. I forgot that nobody is okay.
@@TheLegitWeebsPersonally, I blame Morrsleib
So the golems you see the orks have are called rogue idols they are rock construct that meant to look like their orkish god gork and mork and mostly powered by the ork waaaghh!!! Energy and "controlled" by ork shamans.
the ork shamans can't even control these things properly and they just let this stone giant rampage throughout the battlefield😅
To add to this, "Rogue Idol" is more of a gathering term for some magical greenskin constructs. There's nothing that really dicates how they have to look, only that they're somewhat humanoid. Outside of that it's all depending on the amount of greenskins ready to build one and the amount of magic in the area to make it come to life so they can look wildly different from each other, both in size and shape.
@@pile-o-nonsense3688 orks and their lack of imagination for their religious idols 😂
Gotta love the hidden movie references between predator and mad max and everything in between lol
Alright. Skaven Clan crash course.
So the Skaven Clans are ostensibly set up into four Great Clans that represent the key factions that are playable.
Clan Moulder, who are slavers, beast tamers, and breeders of monstrous creatures, from the humble giant rat and Tunneling Beast, to the berserk Rat-Ogres and the horrific Hellpit Abominations, named after Clan Moulder's capital city of Hellpit.
Clan Pestilens, the plague-monks who are religious fanatics that worship the Great Horned Rat in his guise as the bringer of disease. They are not Nurgle Skaven, by the way; Clan Pestilens and the followers of Nurgle, at best, respect and tolerate each other for their shared interests, but most of the time they fight viciously over philosophical and ideological differences.
Clan Eshin, who are an elite clan of rat ninjas and mercenary assassins that sell their services out to the other Clans rather than taking sides, at least overtly. They're also the ones generally tasked with getting rid of people in the Empire who try and blow the lid off the Skaven's existence and start rallying the people against the Ratmen.
Last but not least is Clan Skryre, who are the scientists, inventors, tinkerers and engineers of the Skaven, obsessed with using crystalized magic called Warpstone to make great if unstable leaps in Skaven technology. Most of them are batshit crazy and regularly blow themselves up, but their list of accomplishments include standardized Warpstone firearms from Jezzail rifles, Ratling Guns, and Warpfire throwers, to Warpstone explosives that range from grenades to nuclear-grade missiles, as well as Warpstone-based mining equipment, the invention of a Warpstone-based communication device called a Far-Squeaker, the cultivation of Black Corn and other foodstuffs via the application of Warpstone's mutagenic properties, and a potion that can extend the Skaven's tragically short lifespan of about 3 to 10 years into the hundreds that presumably uses Warpstone as a key ingredient. Clan Skryre just LOVES putting radioactive green crack rocks in everything...
In addition to the four Great Clans, there is also the Grey Seers, a caste of Skaven mystics and mages devoted to the Horned Rat, marked at birth by a mutation that gives them grey fur and horns. While not numerous enough to ever be a Great Clan in their own right, they are nonetheless regarded as the interpreters of the Horned Rat's will in the times when he does not deign to appear before the Skaven, and it's generally considered by the Skaven to be a bad idea to mess with them. They also tend to fill the role of mages in Skaven armies, although there are Skaven mages outside of the Grey Seers, like the warlocks-engineers of Clan Skryre and the plague-monks of Clan Pestilens.
There's also Clan Mors, another playable faction who are a militaristic Clan known for possessing the unusual qualities of bravery, loyalty, and martial discipline, at least by Skaven standards. They are currently vying to become the next Great Clan, but the other Clans do everything they can to keep Clan Mors down.
On that note, while there are four Great Clans, the Skaven as a whole are governed by the Council of Thirteen; twelve Lords of Decay, who are the leaders of the 12 most influential Skaven Clans. The 13th seat is held by the Great Horned Rat itself, who has absolute authority over the Council, although the Horned Rat very rarely interferes with the Council directly since the Grey Seers and Clan Pestilens both have seats on the Council and generally act in the Horned Rat's interests anyways, and one cannot become a Lord of Decay without first being tested by the Horned Rat and being granted his blessing; incidentally, that is how they survive the test to begin with.
Fun Fact: The current Lords of Decay sitting on the Council of Thirteen have all held their positions for hundreds of years despite constant attempts to overthrow and assassinate them over the years.
As an aside, many writers, including those at Creative Assembly, favor the cackling egomaniacal mad scientist angle of Clan Skryre and apply it to all Skaven, but that is just a stereotype.
That last trailer at the end, the Silence and the Fury you have no idea how absolutely hyped I was when I saw it. My jaw physically dropped seeing the BeastMen not only get there first DLC but it came along with there only update they had at this point in the games franchise. I even had a whole beastmen army for table top by this point and had that big green ugly thing as a model. Just literally made my week when they dropped that.
Once you're done with the trailers, I would give PancreasNoWork a try. He does very good, concise, and comedic coverage of both 40k and Fantasy (as well as Age of Sigmar).
Was not disappointed by your impressions of these trailers! It's cool you got the Predator reference from the Prophet and the Warlock trailer. Easily one of my top 5. Between that and Ikit (the flamey boy cackling as others have mentioned) going full Dr. Strangelove at the end, it's just a fun wild ride!
Looking forward to your reactions to the Warhammer 3 trailers! The initial cinematic trailer is easily some of the best work Creative Assembly has put together. Hope you arw and continue to enjoy your journey through these!
Grom the Paunch!
Ok, the bloated goblin is Grom, he was a young goblin boss that one day ate raw troll meat; now, as it is usual in fantasy, troll regenerate A LOT... and so does their meat. Once he ate, he spent many days between life and death, in a conflict to see if he would be able to digest the meat faster than the meat was regenerating and... he won!
Now Grom is so fat he can't even see his legs but, as he sees it, he's powerful enough that he can just order other goblins to see his legs for him, as a proxy (greenskin logics, don't question it just... go with it), HOWEVER he reached such a size that, for game purposes, he can cast as a full blown ork while still being a goblin (on the tabletop, ork casters cast different spells than goblin casters).
Imagine being so fat that magic itself aknowledges you as a DIFFERENT SPECIES!
4:43 Clan Eshin, I prefer Clan Skryer since they're the "tech" clan... I.E they're the ones with the nukes and infinite ammo Rattling Guns.
They also have Warpfire-throwers, various Gas weapons (Death Globe Bombardiers, Poisoned Wind Globadiers, and Poisoned Wind Mortars), and Warplock Jezzails...
Now-now, I must go sniff-snort much-many amounts of Warpstone Dust!
i love my big, beefy lizard boy Na' Kai. he is an OLD kroqzigor.
The reactions of various fandoms to the offer of living in the universe they enjoy.
Star Wars: Oh, yeah! Can't wait.
Star Trek: Please. Sounds so cool.
Warhammer (Fantasy or 40K): Kill me now.
Found your channel yesterday, I'm glad your reacting to these trailers, can't wait for the third game's trailers. Btw, anytime you see immortal empires, it's a free feature which combines the maps from all 3 games together, along with all their respective factions and dlcs. It was the definitive Warhammer total war experience, having 70+ fully fleshed out factions on a massive map depicting 99% of the Warhammer fantasy world (rip Nippon and Ind). It generated alot of hype.
rat assassin is deathmaster snitch from clan Eshin
As Ikkit Claw the skaven that was laughing like that you can use nukes in battle and destroy entire cities on the campaign map. He is my favourite lord because he is all about making you op weapons even more op and I usually have full on artillery/ranged armies with a few plague priests that can summon temporary cannonfodder to keep enemies away while the enemy gets absolutely shredded.
Deathmaster Snikch is my favorite Skaven leader.
That Chameleon guy is Oxyotl. He is know for exterminating powerful demons left and right, high and low. So yes, he is very confident in that blowtube and darts.
His darts are war crime level
Someone else might have mentioned it, but i think you're missing the "Wood elves", "Norsca" and "Bretonnia" trailers from warhammer 1.
He covered them, in the Warhammer 1 reaction
Malus is very hot. That is all i have to say
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
next, total war warhammer 3 please 🙏🙏
Aliens?
Maybe?
@@TheLegitWeebs YAS
Plenty of them f.e. the Chaos Gods and their demons, the Old Ones, the Great Maw or Moonclaw
