Thank you for watching my friends! We hope you are enjoying Dr. Steffan Hoffman's travels through the Lands and Provinces of the Empire. As you can see, in the next episode we are going to Ostland where more exploration and adventures await! Let us know what are you enjoying the most about the series and what other ideas we could explore while we are roaming the lands of the Empire. Hope you are having an amazing weekend! 🙌

[@KS-PNW]

Absolutely love the series! I really like the narrative framing device, makes it feel more like a living breathing world instead of just a bunch of lore fluff for a game.

[@TheBookofChoyer]

@@KS-PNW Thanks for the feedback! It's nice to hear this, as I think traveling through Dr. Steffan Hoffman's eyes opens the doors for many storytelling possibilities within the world. More adventures are coming!

[@KS-PNW]

@@TheBookofChoyer awesome, can't wait to hear more about his travels 👍

[@arveeolavario5463]

Next dukedoms of bretonnia 🙏🙏

[@OrkBoss]

​@TheBookofChoyer I hope the god doctor can go back to Kislev for a more in-depth exploration of its people and culture and venture towards the dark lands, mountains of Mourn, and hopefully Grand Cathay

[@DoctorNaterson]

Hochland is more than just the first faction Festus kills off in the first 2 turns in Total War Warhammer 3.

[@ragoth6207]

Whenever I play as Festus Vassalize them. This in turn makes them one of the worst vassals but I like to think I improve their lives somewhat under Nurgles embrace.

[@dolphinwarlord6908]

Let me guess you give them grandpa's gifts.

[@inductivegrunt94]

Hochland Long Rifleman: "Snipin's a good job mate." Hochland is one of my favorite provinces of the Empire so it's great to see Steffan travel there in his adventures and show off what the province has in store for visitors.

*Hochland

[@RuSosan]

These Hochlanders will never know the joys of Mount *_Gunbad._*

[@Benkman1984]

The voice actor is so damn good, i love this series so much

[@TheBookofChoyer]

Indeed! Adam R. Is such a talented man and a delight to work with. He gets really into the character. Glad you are enjoying the series 😃👌thank you!

[@Arbiterjim]

All I'm saying is Two units of Hochland Long Rifles will shoot Archaeon off of his horse. Or his manticore. Or kill a Chaos Giant. Or a Norscan Mammoth. Or a whole unit of plate-wearing Chaos Warriors Or knock a Chaos Dragon out of the sky. The End Times came to a stop at the end of a barrel

[@goransekulic3671]

Makes you realize how silly all of that is, yes? On one hand the Great Game, on the other, a simple bullet or a spell can prevent the Endtimes(and such) ... best to enjoy nice setting and gameplay. Not worry overly much about bigger picture.

[@Arbiterjim]

@@goransekulic3671 I mean... I think it's reasonable. If they made Archaeon able to survive 160 sniper bullets, I would call BS in the opposite direction lol. The Empire's finest deserve wins too

[@Michael-bn1oi]

​@goransekulic3671 Tons of units, in lore, are functuonally immune to ranged attacks. Anyone who thinks this isn't just a fun joke is kind of dumb or doesn't know anything about warhamer

[@LegateGallus]

Hochland is my favorite province and most of my state troops are painted in green and red! The dense heavy forests, the cultural crossroads, the marksmen, its a fascinating area that's too often overlooked.

[@goransekulic3671]

It's the openness and the friendly disposition that are the selling points to me. Not to mention their resourcefulness and indomitable spirit. Gah, what can be better than Hochland?

[@vulcranstorm2023]

Lots of mine are black and white were are they from?

[@goransekulic3671]

@@vulcranstorm2023 Ostland. Where we are going next. Bohsenfels, Wolfenburg etc.

[@normtrooper4392]

Hochland is one of my favourite provinces. I converted a special unit of my archers into Hochland huntsmen, complete with their customary hunting rifles. Always have some Hochlanders scouting for the army.

[@raikun2963]

ONCE AGAIN. Dr. Hoffman knocks it out of the Old World

[@CzerwonyRymcer]

My favourite province. For Aldebrand Ludenhof!!!

[@thomaskinyon2984]

This brings back memories of the warhammer novel "Call to Arms". Exciting read & great video!!

[@Spacemongerr]

For non-German speakers: hoch means 'high'. Pronounced like loch (as in Loch Ness)

[@obiown2125]

So they are "highlanders" 😅😂

[@maximus5668]

I love how the nature, scenography, flora are made for this videos.

[@Michael-bn1oi]

They are from Total War: Warhammer

[@Swrdfshtrmbns]

I think it is cool that they are red and green and Thuringia is the “green heart of Germany” that shares many of the cultural themes of Hochland.

[@MCallsen]

Dr. Steffan is truely a scientist of the highest renuln ^^

[@Deaiden]

I enjoy Steffan Hoffman videos too much

[@aidkik580]

I love this channel! Your stories are amazing and excellently narrated!!!

[@btbb1816]

Damn, i am 40 years old. My local video store " PJ videos" had a copy of shadow of the horned rat, and dark omen. the most ridiculous difficult games ever, balance issues for sure. I love the lore and these videos of regions explored are great. also, maybe, more accessible regions have more accounts from other indiviiduals... What ever happened to the Grudgebringer Merc. Army after the horned rat and Nagash?

[@btbb1816]

The Stormvemin ran downhill. Warpfire lead the way., no opportunity to retreat or regroup.

[@rungfang27]

Yes my childhood was filled with many a frustrated night playing that overly hard game!

[@juliusmalcovsky4092]

Love your work. Thank you. Please never change ❤

[@Vyrtus_]

The Empire! 👏👏👏

[@Thebrinkofchaos1]

HOLY SIGMAR! BLESS THIS RAVAGED BODY!

[@corvaxblackfeather6529]

May Sigmar guide your Steps Steffan, be safe, be strong in mind and faith so no chaos taint can ever harm you.

[@Knight7562]

thanks again and good job your are only channel that have videos about warhammer fantasy

[@user-sy3br3zl1t]

These videos never fail to entertain and inform thank you for churning them out as you do.

[@matthewanderson9754]

I love this, the whole series, you're giving literally the best and most intriguing and interesting work for the warhammer universe ever!!!

[@fernandomartinez366]

Since “call to arms” Hochland have been my favorite Province

[@alexanderlejon9958]

Good job. Looking forward for Ostland!

[@BMBMiniatures]

I hope the good doctor will get to Westerland

[@warmage247]

Mmm I love these deep dive faction videos

[@cjclark1208]

Glory to Sigmar and his mighty warriors.

[@vulcranstorm2023]

I can't wait to learn about ostland my empire troops are painted in its colors

[@dave7511]

Wonderful! Nice voice. Sounds very harmonious. I enjoyed the lore a lot. Unfortunately, CA is not willing to provide us with a DLC with playable empire factions.

[@2Tiny_Ant]

They also dont like the dwarfs from Gunbad

[@RuSosan]

_Gunbad._ Gunbad. *Gunbad.* *_GUN BAD!?_*

[@Folgeantrag]

Nice work. I am well aware that is very difficult für native English to pronunce the German word "Hoch" (High) but it has nothing to do with "Hog". There is no K-sound. To match the german "CH" loud you have to raspel strongky like clearing your throat

[@trixus4768]

Can't wait for Talabecland😊

[@TheBookofChoyer]

Keep on Hochin' in the free world.

[@thesagepilgrim4441]

I love Doctor Hoffman!

[@goransekulic3671]

I love Hochland! And I hate the Endtimes. Who would've said, eh? They are practically the reciprocal values of each other. I know that there isn't much to talk about Hochland(hence the battle report), but still ... Thank you.

[@travislewis5058]

Yes my fav empire faction

[@germanmandalorian3514]

I have a Friend that is a Hochland Enjoyer of me the love to mock me, as a Whisenland/Nuln Enjoyer, for the Rifles of this dam'n Weapons! And by Sigmar, i must admit he is right. This Rifles are good Craftsmanship.

[@Vandelberger]

Just wait unto they see Nulns weapons spewing dark energy orbs.

[@trailblazerlazerrazerd9027]

I wonder if we're ever gonna get one of these for Albion and the other lands/nations of Tilea and Estalia? Not to mention Marienburg which has both a lot and not enough spoken on it. 🤔🤷🏾‍♂️

[@TheBookofChoyer]

We will be definitely doing Marienburg!

[@jacktheripper3118]

Ngl didjt know hocland had more then just festus and what not. Like to me the whole places exists to die to chaos in total war

[@benflay6038]

Will you explore brettonia

[@TheBookofChoyer]

Possibly yes! For now we have made this video, which explores the foundation of Bretonnia: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJrMcnuiap2ie6ssi=ceEJOooqMyhNu4Xr

[@Poisonedblade]

Wait... how long will the wells be poisoned and the forests be tainted? - asking for an elf.

[@TheBookofChoyer]

Not for too long my friend, some are being cleansed as we speak while others (wells) had to be shut down for good.

[@Poisonedblade]

@@TheBookofChoyer Did SEGA or Creative Assembly ever send you any merch for all your hard work? I'm just curious.

[@TheBookofChoyer]

@@Poisonedblade they have. They sent me a care package for the release of TW:WH 3 if I'm not mistaken. It had a shirt, an Intel processor, & an art book.

[@Poisonedblade]

@@TheBookofChoyer That's great!!! I'm glad they know about your channel and rewarded your hard work! Your channel is really entertaining. I've got almost 1000 hours in Total War 1 and 2. I haven't had time to start 3 yet. I got hooked on Elden Ring. One of my old friends worked for SEGA's PR/Marketing, but she left the company a few years ago. I was gonna ask her if SEGA knew about your channel or if there was someone she could contact.

[@thekaiseriswiser4451]

Human wood elves with guns. Best province, Ostermark aside.

It would be great if you could turn down the background music a bit.

Noted. Thanks for the feedback 👌😃

[@darkbut8864]

In warhammer is The Empire and the rest of the faction

[@stethespaniard2]

I always get a shitty feeling when I watch these. All this stand strong against chaos the resilience of man. Everything just thrown away. Chaos wins. End of all potential stories

[@30035XD]

The music is way too loud :(

[@BBD1]

Music too loud imo

[@The_Great_Eye]

Imperial West Virginia

[@Indubidably0]

FYI, you can all visit real life Hochland. It exists in the USA, and we call it the state of Kentucky.

[@MCallsen]

We call it Mittelfranken ;)

[@Swrdfshtrmbns]

It seems like Thuringia or Franconia
