Nagash at the start of the war: "Oh, it's just some weird ratmen"
Nasgash a couple days later: " *WHAT THE FUCK WHY AM I DROWNING IN SKAVEN* "
For some reason, this reminds me of a movie with some scientist guy who is alone in some arctical outpost, which is invaded by mice. They eat a lot of his food that is not canned, until he is sick of it and starts eating the mice. :D
I mean that’s basically what happened but metaphorical and with necromancy
@@Furzkampfbomber Never Cry Wolf?
Nagash broke several rules on how to be an evil overlord.
#6. I will not gloat over my enemies' predicament before killing them.
#7 When I've captured my adversary and he says, "Look, before you kill me, will you at least tell me what this is all about?" I'll say, "No." and shoot him. No, on second thought I'll shoot him then say "No."
#52 I will hire a team of board-certified architects and surveyors to examine my castle and inform me of any secret passages and abandoned tunnels that I might not know about.
#85 I will not use any plan in which the final step is horribly complicated, e.g. "Align the 12 Stones of Power on the sacred altar then activate the medallion at the moment of total eclipse." Instead it will be more along the lines of "Push the button."
well, Nagash is far from perfect, but he's so god damned powerful that he can nearly get away with that kinda shit.
However. Rule 52 doesn't apply. The skaven *made* their own tunnels into his place, before then Nagash had huge teams of tunneling undead. He knew every nook in his home.
And Rule 85 also doesn't apply because without the intense rituals and spells He was slinging in the finale, He wouldn't have ever come close to achieving the death of the entire planet. Hell, i'm not sure he would have succeeded any way, for a spell of that magnitude would have been countered by the Slann and the High Elves.
@@skeith1543 85 still applies because it’s about the plan itself rather than the steps of the plan. Essentially not do the big death ritual but something more practical if time consuming like marching his armies across the planet or not killing everyone because after all where is he gonna get replacements when his undead get weathered away or if he needs more for things like a space empire.
@@aveimperator1748nagash will take there bones for new undead
@@skeith154352 still does apply, any secret tunnels built beforehand still need to be accounted for
impressively the old lich even learned the skaven tounge Queekish, wich took the ratmen with suprise.
Yea but He cheated. In the trilogy, He was absorbing memories straight from His victims and Learned several languages that way.
@@skeith1543 when one go against backstabbing ratmen, there is no such thing as dirty tricks- but yes you are right on that point
@@skeith1543 cheated against skaven? Oh no no, that is most evil, trecherous cursed vile-vile thing one can do, all Empire of human things should unite to kill-kill this memance...
- Written by human thing diplomat, not at all fake-fake letter SKEEK
@@skeith1543 lmao he cheated ? Like he was supposed to go learn from Rosetta Stone or hook on phonics style xD
@@TateAnakov i mean sucking memories out of victims is far easier then actually learning the language... so yea? from a certain point of view. It's not like he set up a few captured rats and asked them to teach him the skaven language the old fashioned way.
You have to admire Nagash, he went from Nobody to Nightmare. From a desert Prince, important only in his own land to the God-King of Undeath capable of threatening the Dark Gods themselves.
I'm not sure a prince important to his land quite qualifies as a nobody.
@@vadandrumist1670, on the wider scale of events. He should have lived and died in Khemri, maybe noted in the histories but not a threat to kingdoms, empires, the Dark Gods and EVERY LIVING THING ON THE PLANET.
I'd still rather pretend AoS didn't happen.
@@s2korpionic I ignore aos like I do Disney star wars like badly made fanfiction
@Vadan Drumist well he was a prince but he was supposed to just spend the rest of his days as a priest because his brother got the throne.
Imagining skavens patting themselves on the back after giving somebody else the task to kill a scary undead lord is kind of funny to me.
Imagine discovering a rat in your house, trying to exterminate them and things escalate so far that one night when you come home drunk you discover the rats have hired someone to shank you in your sleep. XD
Hey give the for a little bastards some credit if they also supplied the sword and kept nagash from one shotting the king (at the cost of two council members lives at that)
Half way through the war
"Nagash: there has to an end to them, there HAS to be"
"Skaven Warlord: there has to be an end to them, there HAS to be"
These there the thoughts going through the minds of both parties while simultaneously looking at the cost of the war between them and wondering just how long they could go on with the war.
I have to imagine this is exactly how a war between Tyranids and Nurgle would go.
They don't call the Skaven deity the "horned rat" for nothing. A race that breeds faster than their dead can be resurrected. :D
@@lordfrostwind3151 more like Tyranids and Orks
@@casbyness lmao that’s a good one! Kudos to you, thanks for the chuckle casby.
The issue is that every battle lends more forces to nagash, and skaven never stop producing more skaven , it couldve never ended
Whether by Skaven blade or Sigmar hammer, Nagash refuses to die. Or more precisely, stay dead.
Well, _technically_ he stays dead.
@@Furzkampfbomber I would raise a detailed argument against that but then realised... duh. Stupid.
lol He cant keep getting away with that
@@yetipotato8567 Nagash starts singing a song aspired by Adele: "Hello, its me. I was wondering after all these years, if you'd all died violently!"
I am now imagining the council of 13 and Karl Franz sitting down and be like
"we tried to cut it to pieces and burn it, did not work"
"We whacked it witg Sigmar's hammer and it still refuses to die"
Nagashizzar...The two-settlement province that takes forever to reach on foot and even longer to build up!
Hopefully Nagash gets his own faction soon :(
(Laughs in Dwarfen Underway stance)
@@holo525 I'm sure it'll be an end times DLC.
@@garethholman1050 Nah, they’ll make it Warhammer 4 and charge $70.
@@holo525 Play as the Followers of Nagash and take the long route to Nagashizzar to settle it safely. The starting area for them is difficult anyway, so might as well just move house and play the long game like the man himself. That’s about the closest you’ll get for now.
You missed a couple of the most fun details regarding Nagash's death. The Fellblade's first strike took his preferred spellcasting hand. Despite being exhausted, Nagash awoke and raised his hand reflexively when Alcadizaar attacked, only for it to be lopped off cleanly at the wrist. Nagash expected the blade to simply bounce off or dissolve upon contact with his hand and was stunned when this didn't happen.
The hand survived the Skaven attempt to annihilate Nagash's body. I don't recall who or what was responsible, but something grabbed the hand and took it away from the scene of the battle before it ended. That's why Nagash's hand has remained a powerful relic of the Warhammer world ever since (he's never been reunited with it and it wasn't the thing that permitted his eventual resurrection).
You were also a bit vague with regards to the two heroic council members that sacrificed themselves. After losing his hand, Nagash stood incensed before Alcadizaar, realising the Skaven betrayal, and used his remaining hand to fire off the most powerufl bolt of dark magical energy that's ever been cast in the history of Warhammer. The Skaven council of thirteen had to use their combined powers to turn that bolt aside so it didn't evaporate Alcadizaar on the spot, and two of the council fell during the effort. They were however successful, allowing Alcadizaar to strike again and obliterate Nagash.
On a more nitpicky note, I don't think you were dramatic enough when explaining Nagash's masterplan and how it absolutely horrified the Skaven when they discovered it. He was about to literally kill off all life throughout the entirety of Warhammer. People tend to forget this, and the implication that long ago the Skaven saved the world. :)
He also seems to think the attrition from the war would really have been an issue for the great necromancer. For every skaven that falls fighting his undead that's another soldier that reinforced Nagash's armies. Fighting a war of attrition is exactly what Nagash wants.
@@Icspiders247 And it's not like Nagash was going to run out of time or anything...
@@Icspiders247 skaven brought warp flammethrowers, so it is likely theere were fewer usable bodies after fight, even after skaven causalities are accounted
@Michal Soukup That only works if the bodies are completely turned to ashes.
So Warhanner equivalent of the Hand of Vecna, got it.
Oh yes!!! a war in the Fantasy world that would rival Vrax, but with hoards of undead defending a fortress against the endless numbers of bronze age Skaven xD i absolutely loved this part in the books about Nagash
Althoough I am somewhat disappointed by the lack of enthusiastic gasmask noises.
@@Furzkampfbomber happy gas mask noises are really good, but ratmen screams are just as good, yes-yes!!!
"Bronze age."
Not to argue, but it terrifies me that the Skaven had dark magic-fueled flamethrowers in the bronze age.
@@johnj.spurgin7037 the warp-firethower back then was so heavy that a the fire team had the weapon on wheels, pushing it around to the fighting xD
@@megaman1808 yeah, it was more like a Byzantine fireship carrying Greek fire
"Like a parkinsons infected baby duck against Godzilla."
The fact that it is BABY duck was a nice touch. A classic archism.
Also this would make an amazing t-shirt.
This reminds me, in the book where it's tells you about lahmia it makes it clear that the elixer that nagash gave them made them immortal with none of the drawbacks of vampirism, it was only AFTER they tried to replicate his elixer they cursed themselves and started the vampiric bloodlines. Meaning he had a potion for immortality BEFORE he properly created necromancy.
Well yes indeed they had.
Yet all NAgash his friends where destroyed one way or another after been living for more than a century if not centuries, by the revolting public.
Only Nagash survived himself. They were immortal, yet not indestructable.
my favorite part of the whole trilogy, Nagash and a bunch of deranged chaos savages against all of ratkind, the glorious slaughter purely the result of ego, greed, and warp influenced derangement.
Who Would Win:
A powerful, ancient Lich who literally cured death and destroyed his entire nation.
Or
A giant ratty Boi?
80,000,000,000 Giant ratty bois
You forgot the hand nagash woke at the last moment and tried to block the attack and it clove his hand off which ran off on its own and be became a magical artefact in its own right
The Hand of Vecn- I mean Nagash...
@@RipOffProductionsLLC hand of dust
We all know you only covered this because it has those dirty Skaven in it.
But for real, it’s great seeing you coming back to the Fantasy world every now and then, Arch. A lovely little treat to be precise.
Ratlings, skaven, and all rat kind are the greatest
Is Nagash able to reanimate skaven corpses? If that were the case, his armies would never deplete. If he can zombify animals, why not ratmen?
He did reanimate Skaven, that's part of the reason why it was so hard to dislodge him. It's one of a Myriad of reasons it took such an overly convoluted plot to lay him low the first time. What no one knew at the time, is that the black Pyramid of Khemri became his phylactery. (In End Times they had to blow up that Pyramid to finally stop him, but we don't speak of that because the whole of End Times is utter drek)
@@mutegrab666 Didn't his hand get cut off and crawl away with a piece of his soul in it as he was being killed?
Also doesnt his crown of sorcery also contain a piece of his soul? It was controlling the orc, Azhag the slaughterer (and in table top rules it allowed that orc leader access to necromancy)
@@blazednlovinit Nagash had all manner of contingency plans. It's why He's such a dick to defeat and even then He can just reform in the Black Pyramid
@@blazednlovinit Yep. His hand, his crown, his sword, his staff and each of his original books on necromancy all hold 'pieces' of who he is, similar to Sauron's One Ring. It was the pyramid that served as the primary link between his soul and the Old World though.
Making him a bit like Mumm-Ra from Thundercats (lol), though I think Mumm-Ra's main link was actually his sarcophagus.
You know... thinking about it, Nagash seems like he has the perfect counter to the skaven. They rush in with endless hordes of rats, he slaughters them and then reanimates their corpses to repel further waves, their usual tactics only making him stronger. But I don't believe they ever mention Nagash doing this in the video? Unless I've missed/not gotten to that part yet
It doesn't seem like he ressurected the Skaven as it was mentioned by Arch his reserves were running low. This could be for a hundred reasons. It could be because skaven biology wouldn't mix well with dark magic and they crumble away twice as quick as any human zombie, considering what effect warpstone has on them when they are alive, which is extremely potent on them and might cause some issues when funneling magic into them. Two is the fact the Horned rat loves claiming and eating their souls and perhaps might've extended a rite of protection on their corpses as with his symbol does, only allowing them consumed by other skaven as he does their souls in turn, or to simply rot away. Another reason could be that it's just not known how to properly animate corpses other than humans, much less the ramshackled broekn form of a dead skaven who no doubt decay rather quickly under normal circumstances. It took hundreds of years for nagash and company to reliably produce legions undead humans, and it's their familiar territory. Why not choose ogres or something else some tougher beast as the next undead subject if it's really needed? As also shown with vampiric monsters and other twisted human remains, humans are simply the greatest template of corpse. Their bones are the perfect amount of brittle but malleable for shaping. Their flesh holds quite well together, and their form is suitable for organised massed combat and have an easier time than most adapting to environments, whether it's shambling up a mountain en mass or crawling through a low tunnel, the human corpse it suited for all of it. This all despite being driven solely by instict and Nagash's will, can you imagine the crooked mass of skaven bodies trying to shamble up a mountain without ripping their claws into each other accidentally or just being swept away by easily by mother nature? That being said I'm sure other races have been arisen since it's Warhammer i just don't think Nagash specifically would waste effort and Dark Magic on piles of skaven corpses for those reasons
@@Throgman33 i actually believe the first and second theory as Skaven are not empty but filled with warpstone and their God The Horned one, impretty sure drak magic has no effect to those warpstone as its apart of bigger things of universe.
Next time!
Beasts of the Old World: The Strigoi Ghoul Kings and the Strigoi Bloodline
Oh, yes please!
I'm surprised they haven't turned this war or the Karak Eight Peaks campaign into proper turn based games.
The moral of this story: Evil will always be defeated by Greed.
Yes yes.
I'm not too fond of Fantasy anymore because how Age of Shitmar messed it up, but anything involving Skavenses or the unded (of any kind) is great material!
From Red Dwarf Season 6, Rimmer World:
"Well you remember that medieval war that lasted a long time?" - Kryten
"The 30 years war?" - Rimmer
"No not that one sir the other one." - Kryten
"The hundred years War!" - Rimmer
"Now take that number and multiply it by 6, and you will come up with your golden number." - Kryten
"600 years!" - Rimmer
"Pinch me." - The Cat
The Skaven make addiction to warpstone into a religion.
Mind you all, awesome as the Skaven are. If Nagash ever at one point took the Skaven seriously, he would to the last, have killed them all.
He single handedly overtook Settra as the most feared thing ever to come out the desserts.
Nagash *Snorts an entire line of warpstone dust* "OOOOH YEAH!!"
This is a very interesting piece of lore. It's so interesting how similar both of the undead and Skaven are and yet how much hatred and bad blood there is between them
I am struggling to find the similarities beyond "both evil", "both hordes"
@@blazednlovinit "both magic" and "both gross"
@@notinspectorgadget Well... that's a very human-centric view of things, an elf or a dwarf would probably think you are gross.
From a Skaven perspective, they've seen the rise of an incredibly annoying human race that not only is a pain to deal with whilst living but also doesn't stay down after being killed.
@@blazednlovinit Ewww gross, Dwarfs
Necro Supreme vs Rodent psychopaths. | 7:30 - Or rather, UNlife. | 11:05 - The dead outnumber the living. | 21:00 - Ah yes...THEM. | 37:35 - Clan Pestilens' finest. | 44:30 - The irony is not lost on us. | 47:39 - The Dwarves would need an entire Hold to store the books containing the grudges there.
Skaven while trying to drum up the courage to kill the scary undead monster seeing a to them random human being imprisoned in Nagash's dungeon: *Kronk looking up at chandelier* oh yeah... that'll work
51:20 while i understand the frustration, i actually really like Nagash in Age of Sigmar, the setting as a all has really gotten better from it's admitedly really bad and bland roots.
I like age of Sigmar simply because of it’s cosmic level scale. Like nagash is the god of death, and he has many faces and aspects depending on the culture that worships him. That’s interesting to me
@@TheCorrodedMan Yeah, i'm usually not that interested in High Fantasy, but the Morathi and Nagash books have been really pleasant surprises.
I reconcile the two by just imagining Age of Sigmar is where Nagash goes to blow off steam when he's between resurrections. In reality, he lost the End Times and was destroyed (again), and the whole AoS universe is just him having fun waiting to return to the Old World. He's a perfectly reasonable character in AoS, it's the world around him that's total nonsense.
Agreed, On the one and only age of sigmar book I have read was fun, basically nurglite-bretonnian army was invading realms of death, that spesific land was suprisingly peaceful and lawful. mortals dwelled using necromancy to reanimate their ancestors bones to defend them. Of course there was more sinister forces on the move.
Especially funny was scene where Arkhan the Black tried to communicate and ask for instuctions from Nagash, only getting some demented ramblings and beratings in ansver from Nagash.
Nagash was apparently a de facto etherial god, but was that moment quite weak and not at all together and in his senses.
@@yetipotato8567 Always remember kids, divine cannibalism is bad!
Arch you single handedly got me into warhammer fantasy thanks for all your great videos
"That lying, cheating Nagash Bastard, that oath and contract breaker of the worst kind."
That's not very convincing coming from a skavens mouth now, is it?^^
If I'm not mistaken Skaven are sticklers for keeping contracts. They deceive like crazy, and would exploit loopholes at every opportunity, but they wouldn't blatantly break an oath.
Nagash always comes back to spite his enemies as the Skaven would eventually find out as well his various other enemies such as Sigmar.
I don't know what drew me to nagash but his trilogy was the first book I ever read in the warhammer setting. Both fantasy and 40k. There's something about the world's first necromancer that makes a good story.
Nagash: "Would you die for this pathetic world?"
Those 2 Skaven that died to protect Alcadizaar: "Someone must-have to!"
Chad rats
For those playing Geheimnisnacht (ck2 warhammer mod) now is a good time to repair the damm thing !
Really enjoyed this part of the lore when i read about it, the fortress is also something i have always wanted to hear more about it given how grand it is made out to be, one of the actually good moments in the end times books is the chapter where malekith and teclis are there talking about Nagash
A yes a horde army that throws lives away without a thought, vs an undead nation that will turn their hordes dead against them. I can't believe nagash lost...
I mean to be fair, the skaven are almost always hungry as well as being cannibals. He might have had to gather those corpses first to properly turn them and by then, many if not most of those bodies had already had their flesh stripped and their bones broken for marrow. Might have even been eating Nagash's human zombies too.
Just watched for the second time the Dynasty video that My Name is Byf released which is like almost 2 hours long. Now Arch releases a an hour long video about warhammer fantasy. Oh what a lovely Friday it is truly
>Two Skaven sacrificed themselves for a cause
HOLY SHIT!
That is the most fantastical part of this story...
I can see Nagash taking one of the skaven warpstone flametrowers and using it as a bong
Nagash: (sniff) ahh... Now that is the good stuff.
Oh Boy! More Old World lore! And it’s Undead and Skaven? Even better!
I find it tremendously funny that of all creatures it was the Skaven that stopped all life from being wiped from the face of the Earth.
Nagash was always my favorite Warhammer Fantasy character and his army was great beating even the Skaven for evil factions to me. High Elves and Empire are my "good" guy factions I played.
_"Cripple fight!!"_
Av read all the books about nagash and still have the original undead book with all the old lore in it awesome
Nagash is a KING! He aint no mere man.
Aka, "That time the lich-king and the ratboys fought over a hill".
Enervate was the wrong word there, Arch old buddy. To enervate is to destroy sensation in a body, to 'e-nerve-ate' it through the application of sudden and extreme entropy. Basically, if you hit someone with sufficient enervation, they melt into a puddle of meat sauce and bones. Don't think Nugget went skoosh there. :p
Great video, Id love to hear you talk about Constant Drachenfels. I just finished listening to the audio book and I found the older lore from back then fascinating

I was pleased to see this pop up on my feed. Arch never fails to impress.
Nagash is what happens when necromancers can learn about advanced death magic even early in life. Most spend a lifetime to get to a fraction of what he was capable of before he started to experiment.
The results of Nagash snorting powdered warpstone for 100 years are the greatest "drugs are bad, m'kay?" message Games Workshop could have come up with.
That's offensive. Its called "differently abled" peak

Never underestimate the glory of the Skaven. They are the true inheritors of the world.
After this episode the skaven sound like the good guys of the series
LOL the last part really caught me off guard.
So were the Bleeding Eyes Raptor Cult or the Skaven the first to start that 'yes yes' thing?
I can't help but think of the ratmen every time the Nightlord raptors in the trilogy do that.
Skaven did the "Yes Yes" thing first.
I love the WH fantasy covering. Please more of it. Some Vampire Lore and history would be nice.
The Nine Books of Nagash! That's a lot of dedication for a little alliteration.
So many Jedi-Sith jokes aside, Fury as simple as it sounds, as pure as its logic, as clean as its purpose was the among the first to go, "wait....? I'm not dead? Revenge remains a thing? Oh yeah......" (aka the first "true" purpose for immortality) This is why Angron remains holy despite his "complete" irrelevance on modern tactics.... We were the first to tell Death itself to "go fuck yourself." and were to be abided, if not, learned to be endure.... Aka first Nurgle if not later Slanesh going, "I have answers to this problem!?!?"
