Ah, Altdorf at last. Leading the cities of orderly humanity. I appreciate this city coat of arms' prominent skull iconography and “angel of death” imagery, recurrent within official Empire symbology. Altdorf has built the most vast subterranean plumbing systems; tunnels too short for any human - or any so-called “rat-man”, of course, don't mention those myths. It certainly is preferable for any city, much less a capital, to actually have perimeter walls established at a larger footprint than the physical urban architecture. Which would allow for additional future city, rather than the more common encroachment upon the city walls of the buildings already exisitng. I wonder what has framed Altdorf's quick breakouts of celebration over other cities' more commonly casual and committed partying. Maintaining the image-role of Imperial capital is a dedicated business/life? This metropolis sounds as involved and busy as would be expected out of neccesity. The military's colors are brilliantly outstanding and stylishly suiting of one of the historical city-states and the Imperial capital. The griffin's head sigul is also regal, attractive, distinct and its color adds to the Imperious gravitas; with or without the black iron cross image included. Historic legacy of culture justifiably fosters city-state cultural pride. I certainly prefer Altdorf to Zharr-Naggrund. At least just for the streetlamps alone. I'm glad that this subject, other cities and this series presenting them is content-full enough to organize into multiple, much-anticipated productions. As already mentioned, Narrator, I'm in agreement with you over the enrichment to an IP, world and just the conceivable living life of a setting that these city details and minutae bring. This isw certain to be a fascinatingly presented Fantasy series. Thank you very much for carrying out your coverage, GDN. I'm looking forward to your telling of city life of the Empire in general, and Sigmar's hometown for starters. Be well, have an awesome week, and Sigmar's blessings be upon you.

I have to admit Mike this would be a city I would like to live in if I was in the world of Warhammer but like any City it does have its weaknesses like in real history the walls can be brought down by underground mining like how the Turks did to so many great cities of the medieval and Renaissance age Altdorf would of fallen If Vlad von Carstein invested his skeletons to undermine the walls then attack them from above he could have used thousands of skeletons to mine underneath walls Of Altdorf and since they would of never got tired I say two or three days at the most the walls would of came down plus if he was smart he would invest at the time to infiltrate his own kind and with some clever lies and centrifuge he could of convince some mercenaries To sabotage the city by pretending to be another City State trying to take over Altdorf after all some mercenaries don't ask questions As long as they get paid Also this plan needed to work Better if their army did not Siege the city itself with the walls coming down mysteriously sabotaging of different areas of the city and some of the Von Carstein Initiates killing the most important leaders of the city it would have caused the downfall of the City real quick

Witch hunter Lance the hel Fen conspiracy The tavern Hall was filled with so many patrons the clerk and guard looked at Felix and Gotrek asking for their weapons Felix gave up his sword while Gotrek kept his Axe they would try to take it from him but the glare in slayers eye kept them back from such notions letting him have it Ivan walked up to the clerk next putting down old Betsy His Hochland long rifle then he reached for his silver Dagger from Inside Boot throwing it down next to Old Betsy then from both his shoulder straps holsters to repeating pistols he then throughout down next a strap full of silver steaks Felix and Gotrek diverted their eyes down at the mountain of weapons and back to Ivan smiled and replied if we're going to go hunting For Mannfred I'm not taking any chances plus this is my job as a witch hunter Ivan walked away Felix thought to himself great Either Ivan's paranoid are all Lance's witch hunters are to over equipped
