Age of Sigmar Lore: The Song of War, Sylvaneth

[@mad1739]

This has absolutely solidified the Sylvaneth as my next Warhammer army. The lore is so hopeful and epic I love it

[@2Tough]

Awesome! Thank you for watching!!!!

[@redwillow1853]

WAAAGH!!!! Tree peepulz mak'e fer gud fiya wud. Lol.

[@leonardomoretti1812]

Excellently done sir! As a Sylvaneth player i'm very glad of this series ^^ a word of caution though: Alarielle is not the only divinity of the Silvaneth. Kurnoth is revered by the Hunters, and this dualism is relevant because it may be the reborn version of the Orion/Kournos-Ariel/Isha pair. Thanks for all the good work, keep going!

[@nerushi667]

This is the army that got me into the game! Even though I already know most of the lore, I really enjoyed the way you explained it. Looking forward to the rest!

[@garinevans8369]

These guys are my third favourite army in AOS at the moment can't wait to learn more about them.

[@Pchopper099]

Great video. I am new to Warhammer AOS and chose the Sylvaneth as my army. Thank you for all the great background and information

[@pokethey]

I’ve waited so long for this thank you! 😭

[@PeninsulaPaintingProjects]

Also like the female narrator at the beginning

[@2Tough]

Thank you! That was my wife, Jess. I'll pass that along :)

[@oscisi]

Can’t agree more. Got goosebumps!

[@PeninsulaPaintingProjects]

@@2Tough tell her to keep it up.

[@lordbravura]

Indeed ! Great voice for narration!

[@PeninsulaPaintingProjects]

@@lordbravura true that she could start a career in it

[@benitokiri]

Awesome mate. Nicely articulated

[@alexchaviramusic]

Awesome, I love Sylvaneth, will you be talking about Wanderers a bit this week? I would be really interested if you delved even deeper into their relations with other Order factions, Wanderers in particular, because of their history!

[@2Tough]

I'd love to, but Im having the hardest time finding any real information about them!

[@alexchaviramusic]

Good point, but even just your thoughts on the idea!

[@pdelic3644]

Amazing video like always.

[@H240909]

Isn’t Kurnoth still around? I remember reading somewhere that Sylvaneth worshipped him but to a much lesser degree than Alarielle.

[@kenziemckeever1605]

Alarielle has always been my favorite of the Age of Sigmar gods, mostly because she's got such a cool model and a very relatable course of emotions. Does her Talon of the Dwindling have any real backstory or is it just something that's just a part of her War Aspect? Anyways, I've been thinking of diving into Sylvaneth since my entry into the hobby. In fact, the whole reason I started my Stormcasts out in Ghyran was because I wanted them to have a distinct connection with Alarielle and a Wargrove of Sylvaneth. As far as the Wargrove itself, I've got the idea for a paint scheme--going for a white birch/ash tree look with gold and green highlights. For lore, I'm thinking they might still be consumed by a sort of madness induced by the loss of Alarielle. Perhaps they fight fanatically to try and prevent her disappearing again, thinking their success or failure paramount in determining whether or not their goddess continues to thrive. Also, shout-outs to Jess in the beginning? Was that an excerpt from Wardens of the Everqueen?

[@2Tough]

Thank you Kenzie! That was a section from the Sylvaneth battletome :) Your lore for the Sylvaneth addition to your army sounds awesome :)

[@kenhouston814]

Ooooooo excited to learn more!!! This faction just seems so interesting

[@thomasberg8372]

I have been waiting for this. Thanks 👍

[@2Tough]

Thank you so much Hovar Tomsenbu! So Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Zand3rParkour]

Also, obligatory: WE ARE GROOOOOOT!

[@solarslacker]

Awsome video Doug as always :D Hopefully these videos will help me get my Sylvaneth army over that 1k pts hump :D

[@TheZombieman1999]

Since you already did nurgle videos do you think you will go back and do what you do now with conversion ideas and the such ?

[@2Tough]

Certainly! I have a little bank of video ideas for a rainy day ;)

[@PeninsulaPaintingProjects]

The lore for them is beautiful yet sad. I'm wanting to collect them but I've been told they ain't that competitive

[@2Tough]

Are they not? I thought you coulldnt shoot through the trees... isnt that great? (I dont have a Sylvaneth player near me so i may be totally wrong)

[@Zand3rParkour]

Given that the recent orruk stuff culminated in your Ghur video, I really open this is gonna finish off with the Ghyran lore video

[@2Tough]

Totally ;)

[@Zand3rParkour]

@@2Tough Yaaaaaaas

[@MelkorTolkien]

The sylvaneth are my favorite faction\lore so far from the Age of Sigmar.

[@justinallen2408]

I loved the wood elves in the old world and am starting to like these guys just wish they had more books about them

[@skipspikebud]

You mentioned they are for the cycle of life what makes them different from Nurgles goal other than how it's acheived? Why be enemies?

[@Zand3rParkour]

Theirs is pure, natural life. Nurgle is corrupted life, where really only scavenger species can thrive.

[@2Tough]

Tomorrows video is all about this :)

[@corym4599]

These videos are awesome as fuck man.

[@2Tough]

haha, thank you ;)

[@gustory1186]

Are the sylvaneth aelves?

[@2Tough]

not strictly, these are the living woods that Alarielle formed. Think dryads and tree-folk!

[@gustory1186]

Thanks for the reply, Doug!

[@RegensDominor]

Two nurglings disliked this

[@Ankhakaru]

Are they Elves or Aelves? Are they the new wood Elves?

[@2Tough]

not strictly, these are the living woods that Alarielle formed. Think dryads and tree-folk!

[@Troupe_Master]

I wonder why authors and people always assume that we as readers cannot relate or understand other factions or races if they aren't human-centered it's actually pretty annoying because what this means is that they think that every single book needs to be or have some type of human interaction for anyone to understand it I think that's unfair and it's going to get boring if that's all they ever do with these books

[@rasmusjuul3132]

Omg. Are we doing This Dance again?? Ok fine, But This time we Will not send a puny maggot Lord like Torglug. This time we Will bring Nurgles gifts by the tainted Blade of the Black Cleaver Axe. But who wield the Black cleaver again? Who is the only One who could do What Torglug failed to do? Think on This for a while..... youll get it;)

[@2Tough]

haha! I think you'll like tomorrows video ;)

[@rasmusjuul3132]

I cannot wait:)

[@TheZombieman1999]

I am no tree
