"Gigantic dragons made out of steel" probably means space warships, possibly the "Battlecruisers" from the last song in the album (Apocalypse 1992)

In another reality, Cosmic powers summoned and ressurected Angus Mcfife the XIII, gave him a sword created by the gods and transformed him into Angus McSix the master protector of that universe!

You can't just blow a hole into the surface of mars 13:38

Do one for Twilight Force

A little clarification, you say at 19:40 that when Proletius is stabbed by the Knife of Evil he is corrupted by the power of math. I think you misunderstood the reference to Anti-Telosic Power in the song. I always saw this as a line with a pretty deep meaning. Telos is Greek for end, and is used in philosophy to mean the final cause of a being or action. Teleology is the study of why things exist. A tool made by humans has the end of being used for its purpose. For example, the end, or Telos, of a shovel is to dig. A big topic in philosophy is why humans exist so the end or Telos of humanity is often equated with the ultimate good. If humans can achieve what they are made for then they will be perfect. So an Anti-Telosic power is a power that corrupts something into being the opposite of what it is meant to be. I hope this little philosophy lesson was interesting to someone.

im here pizzagaminglol3

Ralathor timeline is confusing, it's kind of like a D&D characters backstory were the world has enterdimensional travel

Why are there built-in subtitles?

you forgot about the angus mcsix album

I really hope Tommy and Gloryhammer set aside their differences and make a collab one day like Angus McFife II vs Angus McSix, that would be sooooo fucking sick

Man, scots take their feuds seriously. Look at someone wrong and you won't be safe - even generations down the line AND in another reality.

It's worth noting, McFife V got sent to 1993 to use the Amulet of Justice to break Anstruther's Prophecy. Presumably, it will also help with the fact that there isn't enough of the Earth left to have a smoking crater. Also, the Hootsman survived detonating a neutron star inside himself. If that doesn't kill him, a nuke won't do shit.

Could you do a video on Angus McSix? Would love to see the lore there.

So definitely 100% the best Dungeons and Dragons campaign idea ever

The avenger and star wars vids are actually quite fitting where you're putting them. Awesome job on this. I was always curious about the story of Dundee and xargothraxs shinnanigans. :)

Finally! Thank you!

zargothrax did nothing wrong

It always confused me how in apocalypse 1992 they continue to chant “chaos will triumph this day” i figure whatever side the hootsman is on is the correct side so when he detonates his heart to save the galaxy destroying earth and dundee i reckon its either to defeat zargothraxs army or to destroy a corrupt dundee

15:08 alright who torrented Revenge of the Sith?

The schizophrenic classmate telling me what happened in his commute.

im ngl, I just asumed this whole thing was about fighting evil space wizards. I didn't realise there was more than that lol.

I always wondered about the complete story, so thank you for making this video

Casino Dundee

I can definitely picture an Alestorm / Gloryhammer crossover

Bro you went above and beyond for this lol. Awesome work. I'm seeing them in a few days so this saved a ton of time thinking of the lore

Gloryhammer tells a story of an imperial colonizing kingdom that spreads across the galaxy like a virus subjugating and genociding native populations of many many worlds, Zargotrhax the survivor of the first village to fall victim to an ancient warlord who stole his ancestral land (under which lies Kor-viliath possibly an ancient diety who was slain by the starlords who the descendants of Dundax clearly take after ((WHO USED THE KNIFE OF EVIL TO KILL KOR-VILIATH MAKING HIM EVIL)) ) now swearing vengeance upon the warlord and the kingdom that now profits off the genocide of his people kills and raises the unicorns who stood by and did nothing as his people were slaughtered and rains fire upon the kingdom of his ancient enemy, creating a warrior fueled by hate and vengeance who continues the cycle, he gathers a warband, not seeing killing him as high enough a punishment he imprisons him in ice that was frozen by Ralathor, many balads are written decrying Zargothrax the bloodthirsty sorcerer who commited terrible crimes to the princess when more than likely he rescued her from an arranged marriage, In the future wizards the guardians of time who fought against demons unravel the true history of Dundee and reveal Zargothrax as the hero who will save the universe and free it from Dundee's warpath, so they bided their time to awaken their hero, when Zargothrax was awakened his first order of business was to ally with the native population of the goblins who still lived on the moon who's ancestral connection to Kor-villiath left them with a crystal key that could help Zargothrax free the ancient deity from his prison and restored his connection to goodness, he then allied himself with the race of demons who are actually a diverse group of alien life deemed repugnant to the humans of the galaxy and were forced into slavery, Zargothrax and his chaos wizards freed them from their fate allowing them to join him in the libberation of the universe, but before he could finish the summoning ritual, the glory-seeking bloodthirsty clout chasing barbarian destroys all life on planet earth every man woman other and child vaporized instantly and killing any chance of Kor-villiath being freed and saving the race of demons goblins and others from Dundee's slavery, Zargothrax in panic and self-preservation ventures into the dimensional rift, in this new reality he finds himself struck by grief, the sacrifices of the wizards goblins and race of demons, an entire universe destroyed, he decides to take his own life having lost all hope for justice in the universe, when he stabbed himself with the knife of evil he did not die, but was infused by the raw uncaring math of the universe that the starlords of eternity used aswell in their slaying of Kor-villiath, and combining with his ancient intelligence saw Dundee and all sentient life in the universe as inefficient and a danger to cosmic order, he killed dundax and many peasants in his reign of terror, a once mighty and proud fighter for freedom now the tyrant lord and would-be god that the ancient bards decried him as, and then it keeps going from there, you know what's up.

and then you factor in angus mcsix and it's all even more confusing xd

Nice vid and thanks for the CC

incredible video!

My thoughts about the magic dragon/ancestral laserdragon is that the 'dragon' was always a dragon shaped starship

Gloryhammer makes Scotland seem so cool. Too bad scotland is fiction

We seriously need more dumb fun stuff in the world, and stuff like Gloryhammer should be more widely know because it's exactly that, sure, it has coherency, but just because something is dumb, doesn't mean it's stupid.

I love how you put the song that goes with the section your talking about

I listen to the songs mention here and FOR ME its easy to learn how to say the place names like... for example i hear him say ACKnasheen

Sabaton or Powerwolf please next!!!!!

slight correction - It's both Zargothrax and Angus singing - Angus is being overconfident, Zargothrax literally wants to do a funny and set the universe on fire.

Zagothrax did nothing wrong.

Powermetal lore in addition to some quality memes? Hell to the fuck yes. The Omnissiah has blessed me with a new Channel to follow.

Where's the Siege of Dunkeld part?

Amazing video with a comprehensive timeline! I have a few corrections or just comments about the content of it, though some of the information might just be my own interpretation of it, not objective. Also, I am not naming things you said wrong but were corrected with added text or subtitles. -angus the fifth does not exist in any album (yet). The information you give is probably correct, just not discussed in the songs. -scotland is not a wasteland from the beginning, only after it was nuked in the fourth album, it becomes a nuclear wasteland. -just fyi, the hootsman (=warrior on unst) is like the terminator, being a cyborg killing machine movie star in hollywood. -18:08 yes, he sacrificed the human race because it would save the rest of that universe. The universe has way more life in it than just all life on earth. -18:15 little detail: kor-virliath would not be spawned, but a portal would be created, so more like summoned. -20:17 well idk about this, not really a mistake either, i just guessed that the hammer was powered with cosmic infinity or some fantasy stuff like that, and the charge could not be transferred through the terror vortex, woch just made the gammer weak. I guessed I just tried to make some meaning of it lol (Never mind this one, you discussed it later in the video) -22:44 idk cool fantasy space stuff (aka just don't think about it) 22:29 i guess one submarine yes, but the hootsforce referes mostly to the people (angus, ralathor, the resistance) I think -25:07 I absolutely love the comical way you talk about this, amazing! -32:45 I think that long ago is the first album -37:39 I don't think the ralathors survided 38:08 multiverse not universe This may seem like a lot, but they are minor details and could not have made a better video than you did. The only other thing I'd like to add is that you could have showed where all locations are on a map of scotland, since as you probably know, all of the locations in gloryhammer are real places (except maybe the land of unicorns). Still, you made an insalely good video! Thanks for reading this whole comment btw, I know it is a bit of a long one...

I'm seeing these guys for the second time next month. They are possibly the most fun band you could possibly see live.

I still wonder what happened to Angus the XIII power armor.

I'm going to see their concert tonight in London and this is SO helpful. I’m so jazzed right now. THANK YOU!!

Thanks so much for this video - just got into the Gloryhammer lore and was so confused. I just finished my listen-through of all their albums alongside your explanation and it was super helpful! Thanks for expanding my knowledge of the Gloryhammer multiverse XD

Been tempted for the longest time to make this kind of video myself. Really please someone else had the same idea!

THANK YOU

ok but where do mighty wings fit into all of this

I like how every place in Scotland sounds like a name from D&D.
