The Chaos Dwarf Hellcannon! Deamon Artillery Bound Is Cold iron! Warhammer Fantasy Lore

Only the chaos dwarfs would be brave/idiotic enough to craft such a monstrosity as the Hellcannon! For whilst it is a most devastating siege weapon it can also break free of it's chains and go eating it's handlers and allies!

How to chain a hellcannon? Depends on the demon I guess. Suppose some like it nice and loose so they can roam around, others don't mind as long as you change it up every now and then, others will tell you just where to stick it before use, and then there is 'Yes! Tighter, tighter! Do it harder!

I think CA not changing the old models for total war is an indication that GW has done nothing with them so far.

[@spnked9516]

@@PoorManatee6197 That's my biggest fear. GW seems to have a vendetta against the chorfs and will do everything but release them or overtly acknowledge them. I mean, Jesus Christ. They have a war band in Warcry called "The Horns of Hashut" that doesn't have a single chorf in its line up - yet, they have two (not)chorf models in two totally unrelated war bands. I know there are substitutes out there for the chorfs, but few of them hit that right feel for them. Hell, at this point Id settle for a small run of plastic or resein recasts of the old stuff.

Its a real shame that you don't cover Total War Warhammer anymore. I understand CA considers you Pariah and also you don't have a good opinion about them. But i do believe avoiding their content, means that someone that has made a lot of valid criticisms in the past is unable to continue the criticism. I understand why you stopped, but your Warhammer Fantasy Lore videos and Total War Warhammer especulation videos were the main reason i joined your channel. I still enjoy your newer content. But there is nothing that i would love more if you return to shit on CA (they are the ones behind some of the game's dumbest decisions of mechanics) Legend of Total War has proven that taking a critical stance and shitting on them doesn't impact their popularity or influence, if anything it increases it. I do believe you can shit them even harder. And i believe we need you to take that role. Right now the Total War community is filled with shills and apologists and to be honest i am sick of watching their videos. Your take is necessary, without criticism, specially the harsh one, CA won't ever improve. You were the one that shitted the most on the garbage sieges, they added proper sieges in Warhammer 3. But they are still not good due to the AI being dumb as fuck. But all of that shit becomes bearable once i see that the Fantasy Universe has received the best adaptation any Warhammer Game (of any version) So if you shit on them, while it may take them years, they may improve the game and have it reach the potential it deserves and also that we expect. Consider it please Arch. I really do enjoyed your Total War videos.
