If you'd like to skip ahead to a certain lord check the description.

konrad! konrad! konrad!

Blood Dragons as a unique faction would be awesome; maybe even as a nomadic faction with mechanics that makes it beneficial for you to fight strong armies.

A little late due to uploading issues but enjoy

How fun would be a Lord Pack that introduced Marius Leitdorf and Konrad von Carstein. A couple of nutjobs lord pack.

That picture on the right is Gashnag, sired by Vorag Bloodytooth the first Ghoul King, not Ushoran. Unlike almost all other Strigoi he has a small kingdom that he protects rather fiercely, before they ruined Warhammer Gashnag was actually on the verge of bringing the Strigoi back in to greatness. He would actually also be a brilliant choice.

The way I picture Konrad would be a Grimgor type of lord. Causing fear AND terror, having an extra large splash effect, frenzy, high leadership, hitting hard, fast and all. Also his sword could have a mortis engine/rune of wrath and ruin effect. On the other hand, no lore of vampires for him.

AAhh Neferata queen of the vampires and possibly the only vampire with a sense of mercy and respect. in her book she actually tries to allow the dwarves to escape, but one of her ushoran worshiping underlings decides to ignore her and kill them all. she wasn't happy with that, left him locked in a coffin for a couple hundred years. but other than that an actually decent vampire as weird as it sounds. really recommend her book.

these lore videos are my bedtime story. I just love listening to medieval fantasy lores and battle stuff

do more of these videos, i love listening to the stories of the lords and these awesome people i dont know much about warhammer but this is teaching me a lot and its really interesting. just earned a sub.

Abhorash drank dragon's blood and disappear into the sunset... wow. How romantic the end can be.

love these videos, keep it up, you're doing an amazing job!

Konrad seems fun. Also, Beguile and Red Fury are abilities that are already in the game. Only Vlad has access to Beguile and it lowers the melee attack of one enemy unit by 56 for a few seconds. Red Fury gives melee attack and armour piercing.

Luther Harkon is another character I would like to see. He for those that don't know is the lord of the vampire coast, which is on the north eastern coast of lustria (the lizard men zone). He is a pirate vampire complete with wings and cutlass and a crew full of zombies. Though he is only likely to appear with Nagash as he became one of his chosen lords and he at least can't appear until the lizard men have as he would start in lustria

Id love if they would add Zacharias the Everliving along with the bloodline of Necrarch.

Please make a video about the lands of Sylvania :) really enjoying your lore videos. They are quite detailed

" Fortune smiles upon the infamous... "

I don't know how often I have watched the part were you tell the story of the zombie emperor :-) every time I imagine the scene in the room i makes me laugh so hard, the hillarity of it is just amazing.

very good video! subbed

Konrad sounds like a right lad, always up for the sesh kinda guy 😂😂😂

This was excellent

Actually the Strigoi did manage to form a Kingdom in the Dark Lands. Their Kingdom was eventually overun by the Chaos Dwarfs, but they managed to keep a hold of one settlement. The Fortress of Vorag, and they have been in control of it since then. But since they are Ghouls, the place is mostly in ruins, but it's under their control.

Just started watching, but I'm hoping for some Konrad action in here. Also, keep up the good work, man.

Great video, but two small corrections: First, the kingdom of Ushoran was called Strigos, and Mourkain was just its capital. That's why Ushoran's bloodline is called Strigoi, and though they live among ghouls and filth, they dream of returning to power at the head of a new Strigoi empire. Strigos was destroyed, but the descendants of its people still exist. They're called Strigani, and after their kingdom fell they essentially became Warhammer's Gypsies. They travel around the Old World in wagons, are regarded with suspicion by other Old World peoples (again, like the Gypsies). The fact that they often do have ties to Strigoi vampires only fuels these views. Second, Abhorash's bloodline is actually called the Blood Dragons. It's a small detail, but there you go. Keep up the fantastic work!

great video very informative 😄

neferata could be apart of a different faction called the undead and the goal would be to raze nagash with Arkhan the Black also other bloodlines depending could either hate nagash or work with nagash .

Yay, Strigoi Ghoul Kings! Also, damn. Abhorash is AWESOME.

Love it!

Pook Konrad I think you got his name right only once, when you introduced him.

Very good General. Would there be any hope of lore videos for the other great states of the Empire of Man? Such as Great Stirland, noble Talabecland, stern Ostermark etc?

Great vid

best vampire love story suck it twilight

the grand theoganist in altdorf also had a book (possibly one of the books of nagash i cant remember) and it contained the spell of unbinding (destroys undead) this prolongs the siege of altdorf allowing the thief (this was the person manfred sent a vision too) and he stole vlads ring. Additionally, Neferata was dying, the reason she lasted so long was because of the Elixir of life, arkhan in his attempt to save her and using the book of nagash, mixed the potion, with the his blood and a really powerful ritual spell to try and cure her. This Elixir of Life, failed to save her and instead converted her into the first vampire. Neferata then remained hidden from the rest of the court, and using Arkhan as her front man added a drop of her blood to the potion of immortality, this potion was given to the ten members of her secret society, and after tricking Abhorash also into drinking it they formed the original 12 vampires, each with their own bloodline descended from them. The bloodlines that remain are the Necrarchs (W'soran), Blood Dragons (Abhorash), Lahmians (Neferata), Strigoi (Ushoran Neferatas younger brother who stole his elixer), and the von carsteins (Vashanesh who might also be vlad it was never confirmed), the rest of the original vampires either did not sire additional vampires or their lineages have died off/moved out of the old world.

why, why couldn't it be vlad and Isabella rather than twilight???

Love the idea of an undead legendary lords end game! Would make a change from the standard chaos stacks currently, great idea.

Do you guys think that that the vampires should have human units? It would look great in the army I think :-)

If they were to make a film/tv series based around the Vampire Wars, I reckon Konrad should be played by Christopher Walken.

Alright I have a question for you Mr. General and I do hope you can answer it for me. where in the lore, as in what source book did you get that W'soran has been body jumping as you are the second person I heard so far mention it and I for the life of me can not find ANY mention to this happening in any source book that I own and as far as I know I'm only missing the Ulrica novels, the Vampire wars trilogy and the end times novels, so far the only mention I've found has been from the whfb.Lexicanum but it has no source for that information (even asking for a citation for said source material) and there by is unreliable information to be taken with a pinch of salt on the other hand the Warhammerfantasy wikia (which is a different site altogether) has but one vary small reference that only stats that a time of legends book only imply he over took Melkhiors mind after he was killed by him which I'll guess was in the vampire wars trilogy but even then it only implys that his mind was over taken if that entry is to be believed on top of that the time of legend's novels are sometimes called into question of its canon, While W'soran taking over Zacharias body is just never even referred too so that leaves me with the end time novels and I hold those utter wastes of paper in complete and utter contempt barely worth mentioning. So I do hope you can clarify this for me as I'm left scratching my head as with out a solid piece of lore reference I can only come to the conclusion that someone started a lie or half truth at some point or even worse is using the bat shit insane end times lore.

I thought that the Strigoi's appearance was due to their consumption of greenskin blood? Perhaps there's conflicting lore about that? I suppose I like both explanations equally :) Thanks for the great video! :D

"Where is Krell?"

About Isabella "beguile" I can imagine as a "an enemy unit is fighting on your side for couple of second"

Can you do a video on Vlad?

so can you use the Red Duke in old world edition?

nagash could be the south version of the chaos edition so because the further north the more affected by the chaos invasion you are so maybe rise of nagash could kinda be what the south has too deal with

I don't know if it's a coincidence, or I am overthinking it, but every named von Carstein represent a different aspect of Vlad Tsepesh. Vlad is a just ruler and underdog, Conrad is a deranged bloodletter, Mannfred is a master of intrigue and psychological warfare.

Krells coming to the Vampire counts baby!!!

i think you can hire a Vampire hero named Isabella von Carstein, which is wrong she is so much more

Totally playing a Skyrim character called Abhorash. The RP potential is sooo good.

GW really hit it out of the park with Krell's new model. Its amazing. Best parts of Chaos & Undead in 1 model

Alcadizzar is really one of the nicest, coolest guys in all of Warhammer. He was like the Karl Franz of Khemri, and one of the few people who unqualifiably deserves the title "bro". So naturally, he has one of the saddest fates in the story.

Khemri isn't the overall Land where the Tomb Kings lived (or are roaming undead). It's Nehekhara. Khemri is only one of the City states there.

I love your videos. But I'd like to know where you got the information regarding W'Soran, Melkior the Mad and Zacharias the Everliving. I've followed the game and collected VC's for many years (pre the AoS tits-up) - and I don't ever remember reading that W'Soran's blood/magic allowed him to overtake the bodies of Melkior, and then Zacharias. That never happened according to all of the VC books. Zacharias the Everliving tried to kill Melkior, failed, and fled to mountain cave to lick his wounds. Whilst he slumbered in a cave a black dragon came in and nested, then when he woke he was so thirsty he drained it clean. He then was more powerful than ever, resurrected the dragon and went back and defeated Melkior. In the game itself he was over 1,000 points and was arguably the strongest character in the game. And I feel that you're a little off the mark regarding Abhorash. He never went with Ushoran, etc. he hated them all. He immediately went into exile after the fall of the city, along with his best warriors/disciples. He then climbed a mountain and slew a red dragon, freeing him from the Vampiric Curse. And then told his followers to go on and quest, fight the best warriors, etc. I haven't read anything about dragon slayers potentially being Abhorash, he essentially stayed on the mountain top meditating and practicing his martial prowess.

She is my favourite! :-)

What about Kadon, could he return as ethereal lord?

Abhorash... I'd love to see him in TW: W

What is Game Workshop's obsession with the name Konrad and Psychopathy?

From what I heard from a different lore channel that Abhorash does show up again in the end times and helps defend a city from the skeven and thats where his story ends.

also people that dislikef vlad would sometimes wake to see an armu of skeligtond were sitting outside of the castle or night of the living dead would happen

Men the 2 image of Ushoran its in really the Black Prince, its a Strigoi vampire than have his own lore. He for his own can be even a vampire-empire faction :D.

Tomb kings missing lords pls :D

Abhorash...if only! :D

The amount of times you said mannfred and vlad instead of Konrad triggered me

I think a blood Knight faction would be hard to do since they hate any undead that aren't vampires.

So they just take the surname of the dude that gives them the red kiss? How are they all "Von Carsteins"?

Actually Mannfred is an actual children of Vlad. And he's even older than the time of Isabella. He was born way before Vlad settled on Sylvania. The one that was converted during that time was Konrad. Mannfred is the one that betrays Vlad by letting the Empire how he keeps coming back to life over and over. After that he decides to let Konrad be the leader of the von Carstein, because he knew he was going to get himself killed due to his violent nature and for the time being the dude went to Nehekhara to study the Lore of Undeath.

It is Wight, not white. Konrad as a hero doesn't make much sense. They should just put him in charge of templehoff and let Von Carstein civil war really take off. Bit lame for Krell being a hero as well, mighty general that he was. W'Soran with Nagash maybe. Though the best way to play it would be you as the Necrarchs basing from Nagashizar working to resurrect nagash in a system like the wood elves oak of ages rather than some lame AI army spawn like the current chaos underwhelm. Neferata will be a lord pack with Khalida, some time after tomb kings are added, the silver pinnacle is nice and empty on the map waiting. Vorag will be an easy legendary version of the Strigoi Lord based in his fortress once the darklands are added. Luthor Harkon is obvious vampire addition when Lustria is added. Walach Harkon might be nice somewhere as well. You need more vampire starting positions as the map expands.

It ain't easy being cheesy. 😎

😊😊😊

They need to add Nagash to the game

jerek von carstien would make a unique lord

Why is our LORD NAGASH NOT HERE!

34:10 Krell is a THICC BIH

22:08

You called Konrad Vlad once and Mannfred twice.

if konrad didnt become a vampire i would probably give him some gifts

shame she isnt as pretty as the art work :( None of the female vamps are in the game Or male ones. Youd think at least the von carstein line would use their looks along with their charisma

You got the W'soran lore wrong. Melkhior had failed to kill Zacharias, whom fled to the cave to find a sleeping Black Dragon, draining the dragon dry and resurrecting its corpse. With his dragon mount Zacharias went back and defeated Melkhior, and it is HERE that history repeats itself, with Melkhior, who is W'soran, manages to steal Zacharias the Everlivings body, now empowered with the blood of W'soran, Melkhior and a Black Dragon.

I only want one lord in this game. Nagash. He is playable on the table top so why the fuck not.
