Funny enough, it's just because they care about those in their clan. In a way, empathy is just naturally occuring in Skavens.

I’d like to point out too that the Captain that took the Dagger for Queek did so after Queek had been pinned under a mountain of rubble. Seeing his Captain, who’d Queek considered one of his only trusted friends take a weeping blade to the chest, scrabble out from under the rubble by sheer force of anger and while the Assassin gloats over his work, he spots Queek; A towering monstrosity shuddering with such barely controlled anger and hatred his teeth could be heard grinding over the battle. The assassin promptly runs off, but Queek catches him some time later and is discovered dragging the assassins mangled body around and venting his frustrations out on it after he’s beaten the assassin so badly it could barely be recognized as Skaven. His Hate for Gray Seers is also warranted. Thanquol, THE Gray Seer, dumped Skarbrand, the Warhammer equivalent of a Zombie Rage Virus attached to the body of a towering demon with shredded wings and axes the size of SUVs who drive all those around him mad with blood list simply by existing, on him after failing to summon a Verminlord by accident. In true Skaven fashion, Thanquol pulls a Trench and literally shoves Queek at the towering demon telling him to “Stay here and hold it off while I get help.”

I was initially surprised at the idea that Queek isn't at least of interest to Khorne in the same way Lord Skrulk is to Nurgle. I mean, his fighting style is very gory and straightforward, parades around with the skulls of his enemies on his back, and to top it off dons heavy red armor. But then this video illuminated to me his regular practice of spouting sacrilege because it amuses him and his sponsor guarantees he'll always get away with it, and it all made much more sense.

[@theatagamer90]

Well the skulls do occasionally speak back to Queek. Queek hates sorcerer's. Khorne isn't just interested, he's made a minor investment.

funny thing, my first thought when you said "close your eyes" was "nuhu im not closing shit after you said bukkake " One description that makes me love Queek is this: "Queek considers himself the greatest warlord to have ever lived, as any self-respecting Skaven should. However, unlike many other Skaven warlords before him, Queek has been known to back-up these claims as willingly as he is to boast them...." thats what makes me love Skaven LL, how they defie or exalt what you come to expect from Skaven.

[@orilord7392]

Anyone notice the similarities between Queek’s origin and Gor Rok’s? • Both were born among many brethren. Queek in a litter and Gor Rok in a spawning pool. • Both consumed their siblings before a certain development stage. Queek before he opened his eyes and Gor Rok before he exited the spawning pools. • Both have trophies. Queek with his heads and Gor Rok with his scars.

I'd mention the scene in End Times where Queek got too cocky and got his neck snapped by a Chamon juiced up Thorgrim, but considering the powerup lasted like 5 seconds and Thorgrim immediately died because he forgot to lock the door it'd really just remind everyone how much plot armor the skaven have. Though I guess it would make sense for the giant rats to have all the cheese. XD

To be fair, he got killed by the most terrifyingly efficient killer of all Fantasy. And Queek was very old when he fought Thorgrim.

@@Milenos is Snitktch the best assassin though? (I know I mispelled that name.) I've heard stories of a Chameleon Skink that got trapped in the realm of chaos and raised so much hell that the chaos gods literally had to throw him out. XD

@@yamahadrag69 Oxyotl is more of a Chameleon skink commander and chameleon being able to blend in make the job very easy indeed. But even in the real of chaos, he was sometime found by daemon, but successfully suvive by instinc and cunning, the greatest skink of all time perharp, but also Lizardmen not being able to die of old-age, making them stronger by the year kinda help that. While Deathmaster Snikch was never found while infiltrating or killing, also Skaven doesnt live very long, even if they can get a little boost from Skryre at that (costing a tons of slave and warpstone)

[@Milenos]

@@yamahadrag69 But technically there is a better assassin, a Verminlord that talked to Thanquol before Verminking and said that in his time, he was the most feared assassin that ever was and that even Deathmaster was just a weakling in his prime.

[@isabelh5561]

yamahadrag69 Snikch is certainly the most stealthy however there have been other Skaven assassins who I would argue were just as skilled in other areas. Take Warhammer Fantasy’s very own version of the Terminator, High Executioner Veskit, from Mordheim lore whose body had been augmented with Skryre technology to make him unkillable. Here’s an in-universe description of Veskit uttered by Fritz Huber at the Red Moon Inn moments before being shot in the head. “It killed us all! We couldn’t stop it, our weapons broke against its body... It was black, like a shadow, and it was moving so fast, cutting men to shreds left and right. We fought, yes we fought hard, and old Marcus even tried his trick with the oil flask. It was engulfed by flames and for a moment we thought we’d stopped it. No way, it came out of the fire, still ablaze. It was as if it didn’t care! That was too much and those left of us ran for it. Still it followed us, on and on, relentless and merciless. There was no escaping, no hiding, its red eye could always spot you. Oh that eye... that eye...”

Queek Headtaker or how I like to call him - Ratman Lü Bü

[@deathnotehell1]

So about the whole Queek not having a unique mechanic thing. Sadly this is mainly because Queek was a starter lord but like many problems with TW:W2 there's a mod for that. Its called Queek's Burrow - Team Grim and it uses Grom the Paunchs caldron mechanic except its Queeks head pole instead. Its a little underdeveloped but their updating it pretty frequently. I'd also recommend the Ska Bloodtail mod that adds Queeks loyal bodyguard to the game as well as the Red Guard as a unit but they can only be recruited at Eight Peaks so try not to get them killed. Finally I'd also recommend the Unique Skaven Warlord Traits for Each Clan! mod so the Warlords actually have a use for all Skaven campaigns. The Mors ones get upkeep reduction for clanrats and slaves as well as more loyality if they have a lower lvl to the leader as well as other possible options. It also works for the AI so its not cheating if you care about that sort of thing.

A cool idea I have for the skull rack thing is that every unique legendary lord he kills, he gain a permanent leadership buff aura AND a permanent leadership debuff aura. These stack with each LL he killed (only one stack per lord so you can't murder Arkhan like 12 times to get 12 stacks) so the more LL he kills, the more head he puts on the rack, and the more fearsome he becomes, being able to not only be an infantry murder machine but a walking fear dispenser

Queek rework: - give him a unique ability for killing LLs(maybe remove it as a global trait of the base game? im not sure how you could implement it and have it still be unique unless he just gets TWO bonuses instead) - Give him Orc/Norsca confed mechanics. As the video says, he'll incorperate enemy skaven into his army.

[@Eclipsed_Embers]

rather than the Orc/Norsca confederation I think a more fitting thing for Queek would be that if you kill the enemy lord and then route the army you would get any non RoR Skaven in the army after the battle

[@UnknownSquid]

Perhaps just give him an additional small stacking buff on top of the normal trait gains. +1 to Leadership/MD/MA. Inflict fear once he gets a certain number of heads.

[@SONGS5665]

In honesty, I'd probably just do something like the Norsca hunting mechanics: Get access to certain contracts to openly battle elite lords, and their deaths not only buff Queek but give a faction-wide bonus.

[@enachescuserban1097]

I was thinking that giving all the LL buffs queeks has to all of the Lords he has in his armies(except Grey Seers) would be an alright idea then I thought "No wait that would be too busted". So I was thinking of giving him a gauge that the more unique LL's he kills the higher: - loyalty from lords - ranks for lords - psychology debuffs for queek himself - leadership for his army

I was kinda surprised to hear that Queek is actually a good boss (In comparison to other skaven lords), like he seemed like such a prick it was hard to think that he is actually one of the few lords you'd probably want to work for if you were a skaven.

[@codybonds]

Oh he's still terrible. Just comparatively good.

[@NODENGINEER]

Ah, Queek Headtaker - Khorne's pet rat

[@JetSamurai7X]

of all the skaven in warhammer it seems queek headtaker (and clan mors a bit) are a bit more practical about their species enough to get their crap together and do something instead of the usual skaven thing, they really know how to get "a-head" of the curve cause queek sure gets head enough that he impales them on his hard iron spike rods on his back.

[@yanomamo89]

Looking forward to the cinematic video. Great video.

[@torquevonthorne948]

Queek doesn't T pose He cross pose!

[@Idontwantthatatall]

THIS RULES CODY THIS IS SICK

[@shamanahaboolist]

"The Caitlyn Jenner Trifecta" omfg LOOOL

[@bolikde9389]

You think the Breeders of the Skaven are sick ? Wait until you learn about the Daemonculaba in 40k.

[@MOUKIAZOUIZ]

I had been waiting SO LONG for that one, thanks!!!

[@TheDrexxus]

Queek's lack of good faction effects or mechanics makes him ideal to confederate. Honestly, as far as i'm concerned, Ikit Claw is the Great Horned Rat and all those others are just confederation fodder. There is something satisfying about confederating all the other Skaven lords into service of Clan Skyre.

[@bakaky0]

"take their powers like a depraved megaman" was one of the best lines I've ever read

[@deadcalled]

Thank you Cody for keeping us sane in this dire time :)

[@herrdoctor2895]

Queek is so cool, I basically has a army specialising in assisting him, full of Stormvermins with sword and shields, and also a abomination that will be his cute and best pet, I got him two afterwards, also 3 Warp lighting cannons to shoot the ever living hell of frogs in big thrones

[@AWackyDitto]

The one thing I needed to to complete my primal morning!

[@skunkbrains5656]

If my boy ever gets a rework, he should have “head whispers” which is just him randomly getting vision over enemy settlements to demonstrate how the heads advise him, buffed traits from killing lords, and head quests, which are just normal random quests with better rewards

[@flaviomonteiro1414]

Imagine a mechanic similar to Malus and Zarkan voices and quests. Would be dope

[@shooey-mcmoss]

also, maybe some bonuses related to Khorne as well

[@Edgar-workshop]

No, I did read The End Times and it's really shit. But I did read "The Headtaker" novel and it was great. I saw "Warlords of Eight Peaks" on BL and wanted to ask about this book.

[@veermudambi5795]

Balin Fundin it’s an omnibus of all the novels on the Eight Peak faction leaders - Headtaker, Skarsnik, Grudgebearer, plus a few short stories.

[@Edgar-workshop]

@@veermudambi5795 oh, thank you!

[@Varjokani]

Praise the Great one yes-yes! Finally a video of of my favorite Skaven lord Queek. But why you not tell more about Ska? You should read the book Headtaker. It tells how Queek does not know how to raise an army but Ska does it for him. Ska does everything and is like Pepper Pots for Tony Stark. :) I love Ska. He is such a good boy. Also I love how Ska and Queek try to protect one an other.

[@SireMerriment]

Well we now know that blood bowl 3 will include slacken cheerleaders

[@mr.chibiterasu2956]

Clan Mors: a clan so honorable the other Skaven call hacks.

[@creamsalmon]

Pretty sure it’s Ikit Scratch’s body on his rack, but I could be wrong

[@N1lkk1]

Pure gold. Well done sir, well done.

[@wojtek9675]

I wish they would add a mechanic where you can take heads of lords and legendary lords and actually get buffs off them. Kind of like how the Orcs get trophy’s I think that would make Queek a lot more interesting and powerful.

[@griffinwik]

Oh my god! I was playing Clan Mors last night wishing you would make a video for them in the near future!

[@0liver_Clothesoff]

I have this hilarious mental image of Queek pissing on Skarsnik or some other gobbo's corpse, turning around to see a bunch of distraught goblins watching, and promptly T-posing. "Hmmmf, it's starting to burn-sting when I piss-pee, maybe have lab-rat from clan Moulder look-see at it."

[@Chasecharb]

I'd love to see more of these. Suggestions would be Siegvald or Throgg

[@thezstorm7391]

Nothing like a new Noob's Guide to make a day better : )

[@JohnDoe-sl6di]

I probably killed this guy 50 times and he just respawns with a doom stack over and over again

[@bms1115]

Man he really needs a head taker function. Or, maybe make it so that any trait from beating a legendary Lord is applied to all of your leaders.

[@Defeateddragon]

Khorn and queek would be great friends

[@cameronfateweaver2206]

The 'boop' in this video is what convinced me to subscribe.

[@biglenin7306]

I appreciate the effort Cody but I expect more from you.. try again when all 10 minutes are genitalia references.. *Apply yourself*

[@quoqsisdana676]

Khorne must love queek

[@bulletprooflfo7421]

Lemme get that guide to THE SUPREME PATRIARCH

[@gr8m887]

7:49 I always just assumed it was something like the Broodmothers from Dragon Age, but hairier. In which case, I have to stop myself from jumping out a window every time the question is brought up.

[@Muridinn]

Another great video, keep it up my dude!

[@anarquia201]

Fun fact before getting the nane headtaker Queen was now as the ketamine addic of clan moors due the fact almost everyone knows that ketamine is the natural product of warpstone He still consumes ketamine
