My funniest experience playing Beastmen was actually not in Total War, but in the Warhammer Fantasy tabletop RPG. I was a bestigor in Empire lands and had to find some humans to sacrifice. The local bray shaman sent me to a logging encampment with a couple of households. On my way there I encountered 3 lumberjacks, who only had axes for chopping wood. I thought they were an easy prey... Anyways, I charge at them, manage to knock down one of them, and then proceed to have the worst rolls ever in any rpg I ever played. They proceeded to knock me down, the guy I knocked down gets up, and all 3 of them hack me to pieces. To this day I laugh every time I remember this game, it was like something out of Monty Python, a supposedly elite monster that misses every hit with his axes against a couple of lumberjacks.

My funniest game against beastmen was in WHFB 6th edition with my clan Skryre army. Turn 1: shoot most monsters to death, the others run away because of the screaming bell. Turn 2: there is no turn 2, my oponent gave up. This was a tournament, too.

[@EyebrowsGaming]

Beastman player here, that sounds entirely accurate. I learned that if you try to square up toe to toe with nearly any other army, you WILL lose as the Beastmen. The trick is to use charge blocking to even the odds: drag the enemy army down to your level of trash, and beat them with experience. They had some nasty tricks up their furry sleeves if you knew how to apply them

[@cratoss.4772]

Sorry to ruin it but any herbivore would eat meat if given the chance. Why let up on an easy source of protein and munch on grass for hours to make up for it.

According to Norse mythology, during a thunderstorm Thor rode in a chariot pulled by two goats, Tanngrisnir (Norse for "teeth-barer") and Tanngnjóstr ("teeth grinder"). When he was hungry, Thor ate his goats, only to resurrect them with his hammer, maybe this is why the beast man are mad at Sigma?

Even funnier, once the small farm boy (don’t recall the name) that went on to be Thor’s chariot boy was offered by Thor to cut up and prepare the meat for his family to eat. But Thor warned him not to eat the bone marrow of the goats. Of course the little shit did that an anyway, and so when the goats were resurrected, one of them ran with a limp. Thor didn’t take to kindly to that and basically enslaved the child to go on wild godly adventures with him as punishment.

I think the simplest way to fix them (as a threat) is to ratchet up the models in units, or just the melee attack without increasing defences. They should be randomly appearing juggernauts that flatten a whole province before your army can return to fend them off.

[@keegobricks9734]

My head canon for why beastmen look like satyrs and centuars and minotaurs (mostly) and why ratmen all have a more or less stable rat-humanoid form is that Beastmen are men (and women I guess) that through the winds of magic, direct chaos influence or perhaps even beastman inseminating a human woman, are all either mutated humans or offspring of mutated humans, with forms that are technically still in flux for mutation. On the other hand ratmen are actually from rats living under human cities being contaminated by warpstone deposits underground and even perhaps in the sewers of human civilizations. This fits with their behavior too, as you have beastmen who are men but become tainted and hate civilization and order, and rats who wish to be like men with technology and ambitions for power. Anyone else even think of this? Anyone agree with me?

[@jonathanwells223]

Don’t be ridiculous! Ratmen don’t exist!

[@FrankCastle-tq9bz]

Blayze47 Actually, the lore of the Skaven is pretty vague - even the scholars of the Warhammer universe can’t agree as to whether they are mutant rats or former humans with rat-like characteristics. Even the Skaven themselves don’t really have much information on their history as the warring clans keep re-writing the record of events to cast themselves in the best possible light! So it may very well be that the Skaven are mutant rats that desire the trappings of human society - the lore doesn’t contradict this idea at all.

[@FrankCastle-tq9bz]

Jonathan Wells Or so say the lying tongues of human lords, priests and commanders...

[@sjonnieplayfull5859]

@@keegobricks9734 lorewise, the god of the Skaven is the Horned rat... on the other side, Beastmen view horns as the token of powers, so Gors look down on tiny horned Ungors, who look down on hornless beasts (forgot their name).

"I thought the beasts were simply mutants, human exiles devolved into man-beasts, altered by the power of warpstone. Certain of our learned professors claim as much." Gotrek shook his head as if despairing at the folly of mankind. "Such mutants follow the hordes as lackeys or camp followers but the beastmen proper are a separate race, with origins back in the Age of Woe. They date from the time of the first incursions of Chaos into this world, from when the Dark Powers first ventured through the Polar Gates to trouble this sad planet.

The worst part is once CA does make beastmen content, theres still a chance they'll just make them a bare bones chaos faction.. I mean there's plenty of exmaples of them making cool mechanics, but i have no idea what their plan is for the beastmen faction in reference to the other chaos factions. I feel like the only way for beastmen to be interesting is to start writing new lore for them. They were the "enemy of the week" in plenty of lore, hardly given much screen time in the End Times, and even on tabletop were a "why bother when you can play armies that are actually consistent and have models". Their image may have survived throughout GW titles, being in 40k and fantasy, and age of sigmar still, but they might still come out 1 dimensional. If CA wants to make beastmen stand out, i think they have to create their own system to make them unique. They have to be inherently different from chaos at some core level of design. Like the the core mechanics of the faction allowing for your Herd to Rebel against Chaos and carve out your own existence in the world, and make your own arch nemesis vs your own chosen faction. Rather than having to always choose between men and wood elves we could be choosing our own. Maybe it could be a tech or something, that allows us to choose a faction on the map as a nemesis, giving bonuses fighting against them, and giving ambush and beastpath defenses vs every other faction you're not a nemesis with. Just as a start. Being "norsca but with less steps and no diplomacy options" sounds boring as all hell. I only played 2 chaos-runs with norsca before i moved onto the superior campaign play-style of being the dominate trade empire in the entire world, having trade routes with every single major faction, funding 6-7 full stacks minimum, summoning chaos into the world, krumping their heads in with javelins and mammoths as soon as they spawn, and enjoying a world of pseudo-peace, as you sit on top of the world, in your frozen golden throne, made out of 25k gold per turn, lowballing it. NOW THAT, is how you play norsca in Total War. Screw chaos. The world is mine.

last time... something something... so early... something something...

Your collaborations and your artwork is great and thoroughly entertaining. And this is coming from a guy who was totally put off Warhammer by his cousin because he jibber jabbers soo much detail about it in chunks I cannot digest. One example was the story of the Horace Heresy ( if I'm correct in the name of it). Ty to all who helped you wiht it also, u got a new subber even though I still don't play either the table top or RTS PC games :] P.S. I thought Skaven were terrifying but DAYMN! Beastmen are my new fav :D

[@Calcorperations]

Awesome vid, and awesome content supporter :D I've been looking for some grimpunk inspiration lately!

[@killisionblasto4774]

I love your videos and your narrative voice, as a voice actor myself, your levels spike and give static. You can easily smooth those out without taking away from what you're doing. Adobe suite has tools to even it out. It compresses the hard notes while keeping your feeling.

[@killisionblasto4774]

You're one level adjustment away from being the David Attenborough of the warhammer world

[@skrubasauras]

Appreciate the feedback! Would you believe I'm still only using Audacity? I'm in the process of upgrading software though

[@cosuinofdeath]

yo wtf i havent gotten a notification since the imperial colleges literally had to search you up

[@OnkelJoakim1]

Another great video guys. I'm still newish to the lore of warhammer so your videos make it a lot easier to get into. Also great job mister skrubasauras you could tell a bedtime story and I'd fall asleep in five minutes, I mean that in the best way possible. Keep up the fantastic work.

[@skrubasauras]

Maybe I should look into the bedtime story market lol

[@OnkelJoakim1]

@@skrubasauras you would kill at that my dude

[@bonbondurjdr6553]

I really enjoy those longer videos, and the presentations! Thanks a lot!

[@mydog3627]

Update in one week! Finally we can use them properly in TW!

[@spiffygonzales5899]

:D wow, even MOOre content! And a Stampede of it too! Full of all the blood and GOR I could expect from you. I HERD the notification and I STEERed clear of all other videos just to watch! Overall not BAAHd :D

[@TheBookofChoyer]

😂😂 Thank you my friend!

[@Celtic_Iron]

The old school hyper realistic Fantasy sketches really convey the horror of the Warhammer universe. AOG is toned down to such a degree it looks like children's fairy tales.

[@tekaraethomas6617]

I hope you will do the ogre kingdoms and the chaos dwarfs next

[@willmarsden7657]

Hello. My state in Australia go absolutely rabid one month a year in a 3 match Rugby Competition against our neighbouring state. My fellow statesmen are essentially Beastmen, and as such, are the colours of my first Beastmen Brayherd.

[@SaintsTerror]

This is another awesome one, great job you. Love these. I haven't looked yet, but I hope you have one on each race in the future

[@TheBookofChoyer]

Thanks a lot! Thats the idea my friend! To try to cover all races.👌
