[@Count.Saruman]

Tales of Athel Tamarha "I assure you, Lord Eltharion, he has gone quite off his rocker." said Mee'ns Bisniss, idly swinging about the spiky morning-star he may or may not have looted from a Druchii's corpse. Say what you would about their ways, their designs were usually rather... effective. "That is for me to decide" said the Grim-faced Grim Warden grimly, unsheathing his grim knife. He opened the grim door to reveal an elf both laughing and crying at the same time, to thee effect of seeming genuinely pathetic. It would not be alarming if he wasn't a swordmaster who had trained a thousand years. The Elf turned to meet Eltharion's grim stare, and smiled thinly, his hideously-scarred mouth contorting terribly. "Do you wanna know how I got these scars?" said he, voice full of whimsy. "You have committed crimes against Yvresse city. I have sworn an oath of vigilante justice not to kill any who are defneseless- but that doesn't mean you can escape..." and here the Grim Warden released his grim facade- "...JUSTICE." The sounds of vertebrae cracking was heard, and Eltharion came out, looking once again quite Grim. That the cloth around his knee was slightly rumpled went unnoticed. "The Smallest Chamber is mine" he announced. His people thought him humble, but no, he led a dour life so that he could bottle up what is known as RAEG and unleash it on his foes. The elusive Night Goblin known only as 'Da Jokah' yet eluded his grasp. Curling up on the entirely too small bed, Eltharion filled his thoughts with venge- no, JUSTICE as he dreamed about hanging Da Jokah by the leg from a tower.

[@sickbozo8152]

Hey lionheart I’ve always loved your series and that you integrate your loyal lion community suggestions into your videos I remember how happy you made me when you used my name suggestion in the Tehenuians campaign (Raka’gor the Merciless) I ran down the stairs with a stupid grin on my face yelling yes and showed my mum!

Hello friend. I watched this campaign in Twitch, even though I didn't comment- I haven't subbed to Twitch. But I want you to know that I'm there on Twitch, as I love your campaigns with High Elves in WH 2. I'll follow the route of this campargn on Twitch, even though I give you a watch number on YT too. Cheers, friend, have a nice time and stay safe.

I don't know much about this game or the lore behind it. I enjoy it thoroughly, and I'm learning a few things thanks to you! Keep it up

[@BaronVonMott]

I'm not particularly a fan of the High Elves, but I must say they gave Eltharion some fairly cool mechanics to play around with!

[@shadowwolf2608]

Chronicles of Grave Marshal #1 As the Emissary to the Phoenix Prince departed from their ships, so too did a man that nobody had heard of. He climbed aboard his Griffin and flew to the north to Yvresse. His name is Victor Krupp, a Reikland born general with a reputation to get blood on his sword and feared by many! Emperor Karl Franz was welll aware of Krupps' reputation and dislike of politics, he preferred to solve problems with his sword making the young general a thorn in his side. However with problems comes opportunity and eager to make a name for himself, Victor Krupp was happy to take the opportunity to fight with the Grim Wardon himself. As Eltharion went south, the Empire General was left behind to keep watch and deal with small groups of Greenskins that remained. While on patrol one day, General Krupp and his forces ran across a small Greenskin force. Consisting of Goblins and Goblin Archers. With no reason to wait, the general quickly started giving out orders. He had limited melee infantry but plenty of archers. "Spearmen, form a spear wall in front of the Archers in the center of their line and brace for the enemy charge! Archers, hold fire until I give the word to," Krupp shouts to his elven soldiers from the sky atop his griffin. Without hesitation the elves carry out his orders and the three units of spearmen available form a spear wall! Just before the Goblin Archers can get in range of the elven soldiers, the general orders them to unleash a rain of arrows and thus the arrows of the elves fill the air before the general! "Do not stop peppering these runts with arrows until they flee! Block out the sun with your arrows!" The Archers continue to fire as the goblin force comes closer and eventually collides with the spear wall. Their crude weapons being no match for elven steel! Even as the Goblins come closer to them the archers keep firing their arrows, firing their arrows straight at the goblins! The spear wall quickly routes the goblins after killing many of them and the archers stand their ground even when forced into a melee confrontation. Free to move and pick their next opponents, the Spearmen rush to either side of the line of Archers and aide their fellow elves in battle! Leading this goblin force is a Night Goblin Warboss, a dangerous opponent but not invincible. The Night Goblin Warboss is in the thick of the fighting with a unit of Archers when from behind he is struck! A sharp talon has tore into the left-side of his back and shortly after this blow, Krupps' griffin pins the Warboss to the ground! The general himself dismounts and goes straight into the fray fighting multiple goblins at once. With but one swing of his sword he cuts down three goblins in a single swing. Before all of the goblins would retreat, Krupp would slay more than thirty goblins by himself. As the elvens pick up the war boss, the general approaches the wounded Night Goblin. He looks at the warboss and says, "well now who do we have here? A Night Goblin who thought that he and his forces could pillage to their hearts content while the Grim Wardon went south. How comical. Of course I'm not going to believe that your the only one here! Where are the other mobs of Greenskins?" The goblin tells Victor Krupp that he'd rather eat a squig than talk to him. "Good, I need to make sure my skills are still as sharp as they were before I left Reikland. As the saying goes, you either use them or lose them!" None of the elves know what their commanding officer is talking about but they will soon find out. The warboss is rushed to Tor Yvresse where in the interrogation chamber, Krupp personally tortures the warboss into giving him what he wants to know! After the warboss has told the general all that he knows, Krupp executes the warboss. Leaving the interogation chamber Krupp says to a messenger, "I want the soldiers rested and ready to march and ready to fight in two days or less! We have some Greenskins to slay!" The messenger takes these orders without delay as several elves to to work cleaning up the mess the general left in the chamber. Never have they seen such brutality or willingness to get ones' hands dirty. A letter arrives from Emperor Karl Franz addressed to the soldiers under Krupps commanding. In it is a warning, Victor Krupp is the most ruthless general The Empire has to offer. He doesn't hesitate to get into a fight and is a force to be reckoned with. They are told to brace themselves for the bloodshed he will leave in his wake and the elves take this to heart. In the coming days, they will see just how dangerous this general is and what he can do!

lionheartx10, Wonderful start. I am watching on youtube. Your last high elf campaign was a head to head against Msmartdonkey. You are playing as Avelorn. Speaking of which you have not finished that yet. You generate influence per turn. And high elves always can see the territory of their trade partners. Otherwise great work! Please have an Archmage as a general and if you get a high magic one, please name her Altronia. I plan on starting a story like in Dol Amroth soon.

14:00 really good impression lionheart

[@colonalofsongsoldiers1198]

Hello there, my friend Commander's Songs is need elsewhere to keep up the good fight. So I Colonel of SongSoldiers will take over his advisor position to provide useful and potential guides to help the many campaigns to come. Anyways.. If Eltharion is going to fight the Goblin King. He will need a lot Mistwalkers with many upgrades in order to fight back. Try getting as many Warden supplies as possible so you can upgrade more defenses before the final battle begins. Now that our High Elf Settlements are secured, Eltharion can either go north to fight Chaos factions, or go south to fight Vampire Pirates, Tomb Kings, or maybe some Greenskins. Plus the High Settlements could use some walls for protection. If you have plenty of Influences, try to use the Influence to increase better relations with High Elf factions in order to have better chances to confederate them. Also while Eltharion is providing many trading goods with the High Elves, try expanding more trade agreements with other order factions such as Repanse De Lyonesse, Markus Wulfhart, or etc. At some point of time in future episodes, if you can help Eltharion to be able to confederate Tyrion, Alarielle the Radiant, Alith Anar, Alastar the White Lion, Teclis, and maybe Imrik, then no other faction would ever dare to challenge the High Elves. Okay, look the trade agreements and confederation parts are both entirely up for you, lionheartx10 to decide what's next. You are the only commander here who can decide Eltharion's fate.

Well, there is Korhil, the captain of the White Lion's as a whole. He's not in the game officially, but Mixu's Legendary Lords 2 mod adds him in at Chrace. But if we do get a fleshed out White Lion lord, I'd prefer more be done with Alastar himself.
