• Karl Franz - Prince, E...
At least he married a *distant* cousin and not a first cousin. Honestly, the way noble family intermarry, it'd probably be impossible *not* to marry a distant (or closer) cousin without going well outside the pool of "people trained to survive assassination attempts."
"Is she riding a polar bear?"
Why yes sir do believe she is.
24:20 Kislev. Tzarina is one hell of a cold woman, both figuratively and literally as she is THE Ice Witch and one of the most powerful human mages to ever live.
Also I find it really amusing that he hates Bretonia so much, but the name of his favorite character in German literally means "Charles French" 😂
Franz can mean Spear, Fierce, Bold and Free, in some historical germanic languages. the Latin derived Franz refers to French people
It fills me with no limit of happiness that the Immortal Empires trailer gave Karl the center role with his speech
24:35 ya she is queen of Russa she is an ice witch both figuratively and literally. Her dad is the inventor of the bear calvary.
Pretty sure Kislev is based more on Poland than Russia...
@norsehorse more the Slavic world in general.
@@norsehorse84 the capital is russia the common peoples biggest number is polish but to quote mandalore "it's a big slavic stew"
Last time I was this early; Settra was alive, Malakith and Snorri had a bromance, Ulric was the top dog of the human pantheon, and Sigmar wasn’t even born yet.
Hydra Dominatius
"I'm not getting defensive, I'm getting offensive." Can't argue with that.
Also it's not confirmed, but it's strongly implied that one of the leaders of the Stormcast Eternals is good old Karl back from the dead to fight for humanity.
I think PancreasNoWork likes Karl Franz.
I don't know my dude, that comment seems kind of a stretch don't you think? But maybe i have just missed a few subtle hints, that can happen after all
Ah yes, watching the Old Man listen to the Pancreas simp for Karl Franz.
Good thing I simp for Franz too.
0:32 At least the Elves can be hot without having to be a few flagons in.
SUMMON THE ELECTOR COUNTS
I am so amused that he banged tzarina katerin and lived to tell about it probably the only person to ever to do it why because he’s KARL FUCKIN FRANZ
*SUMMON THE ELECTOR COUNTS!*
Great Reaction, thanks for covering this one!
The person riding the bear is Tsarina Katarin the queen of Kisliv
This reaction DOES have my consent!🔨
The 'other woman' might be Genevieve, the vampire that killed Constant Drachenfels. Franz Jr did have a crush on her, after all.
I feel that if Karl had the chance I think he would be able to convince Vald Von Carnstine to swear loyalty to him
Yeah, i feel like if he had a chance, he could convince many people to swear loyalty to him, i mean i would follow a dude who's like nearly as tall as a fucking horse calvary in the time of the empire, man is built like a shitbrick house and can look a horse directly in the eye without having to look up at all
Bretonnia is the tau of fantasy
Is she is on a poler bear, she is the queen of kislev.
Not sure if you take comment suggestions but the remembrancer has a ton of great short to mid length 40k lore vids nykona sharrowkyn is my personal fav
I believe the main reason pancreas hates bretonia is because they get noticed by the elves. He's jelous😂
id recommend watching pancreas's malekith video, explains how the dark elves aka the druchii came to be and also how the elven civil war started plus a few other really great parallels of a certain other evil character in an evil suit of armor
To give an INCREDIBLY brief summary as to why someone would hunt the Halflings for sport, they are assholes and almost certainly deserved what they were getting.
The longer explanation is that they are the inspiration for Ratlings, so Halflings by and large are greedy, thieving asshats that don't know when to stop tea-bagging a flaming beartrap until AFTER it's given them a gentle kiss, and this is best summarized by the events of the so-called Halfling Rebellion.
In the past, one of the Elector Counts, Marius Leitdorf, petitioned the Halflings to build a road through the Mootlands to help facilitate the Empire's war efforts by letting him move his troops through the Mootlands quickly. The Halflings, being good imperial vassals, agreed to this on the condition that they could place a toll on the road for any and all traffic to help pay the taxes they couldn't afford to dodge anymore, and while Marius smelled extortion, he agreed to their terms.
Construction of the road began, but the crews were regularly assaulted by bandits all along the way; Halfling bandits. Whilst no one was killed, this set construction back severely. Complaints were made to the Halflings elders and the Elector Count of the Mootlands, but they put forward the notion that they only agreed to allow the road to be built, not guard it, and they could not keep bandits away from the convoys because they were, at the end of the day, bandits and NOT in fact the standing army of the Mootlands in disguise and could therefore not be made to capitulate to the Elector Count's demands.
To his credit, Marius grit his teeth, spat venom so toxic it'd make Nurgle sweat, and carried on with his project. Naturally, the crews were harassed all along the way, but construction up until this point had only been slowed by lack of gold and food for the crews and not outright halted. This changed however when it came time to build a bridge across the only major river on the route planned for the roadway, as the crews would lower the foundations into the water by day, only for bandits to come along at night and steal the fucking stones from the bottom of the river. Guard patrols were beefed up, but every time the guards would be found beaten senseless, naked, and tied up for the crews to see in the morning. This continued until Marius's Buddha levels of patience finally ran out, and he called the Halflings out and demanded they stop and let him finish his road or he would burn the Mootlands and every Halfling he could find along with it.
The Halflings, not being able to help themselves, continued, and Marius started making good on his threats. Naturally, this caused the Mootlands to mobilize their entire army, face Marius's soldiers in battle, and then promptly get their asses handed to them. As Marius continued burninating the countryside, the Halflings begged the Empire to intervene. Which they did. Although they made sure that the Halflings understood their lesson before they told Marius to chill and stop attacking his fellow Imperials. Marius acquiesced, mainly because Karl Franz told him to, and while he did NOT attempt to genocide the Halflings and turn the Mootlands to burning coals despite his many promises to do so, he made a point to hunt them for sport whenever possible until his eventual demise. And it is a testament to how much Halflings are so disliked by the rest of the Empire that no one batted an eye at Marius committing acts of murder and the Halflings kept their mouths shut when the phrase 'Marius Was Here' started showing up written in blood.
Some of that is probably inaccurate, and I vaguely recall the Halflings hiring mercenaries that may or may not haven Ogres to try and deal with Marius, but the key events of Marius wanting to build a road, the Halflings fucking him over at every turn, him razing the countryside, and Karl Franz telling him to Hakuna his Tatas and fight an actual threat to the Empire are at least correct.
As for tabletop, my only experience with Halflings is in Blood Bowl, where they are statistically one of the worst teams in the game, having the same stats as goblins. How do the Halflings get around this without the usage of the chainsaws, bombs and flails that the Goblin teams are so fond of? Well the Halflings can field Treemen, which are some of the toughest and slowest units in the game as you'd expect, and they tend to have some of the lowest team values possible, meaning they usually get a metric assload of pity gold for endorsements and mercenaries. But the biggest advantage the Halflings have is a discount on the Halfling Master Chef endorsement, which lets them steal a random number of the enemy's re-roll dice at the start of every half, AFTER THEIR OPPONENT HAS BOUGHT THEM, and add it to their own dice pool. *I DON'T THINK I NEED TO EXPLAIN TO ANYONE WITH A PASSING KNOWLEDGE OF WARHAMMER HOW BULLSHIT THAT IS!* But for the unenlightened, reroll dice are expensive in Blood Bowl to the point where there are serious discussions about whether or not they are more valuable than units, but because Halfling units are cheap they can usually afford a higher number of rerolls on average than other teams which may struggle to afford even 1 reroll starting out, let alone buying extra rerolls during the endorsement phase without pity gold. And Halflings can just steal that because they can afford to get the Halfling Master Chef endorsement almost every game instead of buying extra rerolls.
In short? Only play Halflings if you feel like being a dick before the kickoff. If you want to be a dick AFTER the kickoff, play Goblins.
Have you thought about doing a character rework series like eldrad or lemun Russ etc might be interesting
Imagine if in Age of Sigmar they brought this dude back as a god somehow, like a god of politicians or something. Dude's a freaking gigachad.
Could you watch a video explaining the various Skaven clans?
Correction, an armored polar bear.
I have the problem of helbrecht and angron whiper in my sleep....
Pancreas was 24 ? the fuck isnt this Vid like this year released?
Nice
You learned the wrong lesson from Grameldis boss. The lesson was I don't care when the truth is get off you ass before I beat you into the couch you laying in. Also that the solution to all giant robot problems can be solved by a bigger gun.
Imagine liking the Tau 🤓 am I right fellows 👀👀
I mean... Farsight just denied Khorn again and Shadowsun is willing to let the Cult of the Goddess of the greater Good exist, even though the Ethereals would most likely want it gone, which would happen with mass executions.
So the answer is simple, hate the Ethereals, simp for Farsight.
Wiping us off the map requires leaving yourself vulnerable.
Was that Inn thing a Jesus allusion, or am I looking for the bible's influence too quickly?
I may like Tau a lot, but we can always agree that the Brettonians suck, have always sucked, and likely will continue to do so without ceasing to be Brettonians in all but name.
Commander Sherridan is also a fan of selectively edited truth. Like broadcasting that nothing happened in a sector of space. No further details, just saying, "Nothing happened in sector 87 today"
Plot armor or diagetic investment into preserving a capable frenemy? You make the call!
Where is even the sport in hunting halfings!? I get hunting humans, "Most Dangerous Game" and all that, but hunting Halfings? Really!?
Ah, nothing to squick people out quite like Royal bloodlines. And to immediately add a flaw to nobility. At least it wasn't full Hapsburg or Ptolemy since she was a distant cousin.
Nothing like common sense and actual communication to give you an edge in a world of paranoid maniacs.
Yes, that is the Kislev queen riding a polar bear. I think it's reasonable in this setting. Gives her a thematic mount arguably on parity with her southern neighbor and she's also an ice witch. If that bear gets out of line, it will be punished by her hand.
We can talk about the now outcast Eldrad later.
