@@Eldên28i used to be, changed my mind when I was listening to some lore painting the stormcast with spears and shield. Personally I prefer fantasy and 40k but age of sigmar is pretty young so like the primaris astartes it will probably just take time to win them over
I REALLY love this character. He's just pure platinum to me. Clever and brass knocker to walk into a enemy camp, beat the boss, use the uruks own brawling nature against them, and have his comrades finish the rest. Just a fun episode with a good character I hope gets more lore in the future
Thinking about the lore, where Stormcast Eternals lose more of their personality and memory with each reforge, With the amount of charisma and charm displayed, this SCE must be still on his 2nd life, which means: 1.) Hes a badass in battle (likely) 2.) Always finds a way to talk his way out of any conflict (MORE likely) 3.) BOTH.
He’s died only three times, and now can’t afford to do so again as his soul is damaged (technically he regained part of his humanity and memories, but is now repulsive to other stormcast) after being tortured by a skaven sorcerer, otherwise he would be put in a cell for the foreseeable future due to his condition. Signor broke him out and made him a Knight Questor to find the remedy to his ailment, but had to send SCE (one of which was his former wife) for appearances sake.
Ah, Sigmar's favourite Pen Tester! Always nice to see mighty (in their own right) characters not shying away from -bullshitting their way through things- The Elegant Art Of Social Engineering!
Actually it makes a LOT of sence Warhammer Fantasy and AoS is settled in 40k. Think about it. Not only does the warp twist and reflect reality, hence the stormcloaks look familiar to astartes, but in 40k there are a lot of feudal planets which have their own religions and believes of the emperor. If the creatures in Warhammer Fantasy and AoS are in fact real, then their believe might have been so powerful that a small portion of the emperor's will touched sigmar and made him the "god" of this twisted reality and therefore rebuild the AoS world. And I mean, the chaos gods also seem to be the same.
One note here actually on your headcanon: Back in the day, I think it was second or third edition of 40k, there was a mention of the Daemon prince N'Kari that it had come from this world that was trapped in an eternal warp storm that was fiercely contested by the gods and somehow still free. Now, this matches up with Warhammer fantasy - the old world prior to the events of the age of Sigmar, especially as N'Kari is actually a greater daemon of Slaanesh in warhammer fantasy too (And it's also mentioned as such in the Horus Heresy series). In other words: The warhammer fantasy realm was likely a world in the warhammer 40k realm captured inside a warp storm - now, what caused that fierce warp storm you might ask? Well, the high elves, when the gate of the old ones fell and opened a gateway to the realm of chaos (the warp) it flooded the realm with daemons, the high elves managed to create a giant drain in the center of their island of Ulthuan that constantly drained the magic from the world - thus creating a warp storm effect where the magical energy was constantly drained while being pumped into the setting. So: Your headcanon sounds pretty close to what I think may have been the original idea.
The bro who got beat enchanted the heck out of his armour his enchantments enchant itself just so it can enchant itself again the enchantments itself bows down to the thunderous power of his god to enchant itself
he could have just directed the orks towards any chaos strong hold or deamon, demons love to fight, orks love to fight, they would be going at each other and taking pressure off any sigmar settlement, not sure why he didint try that oh well.
Hey I would love to see you review books man.. I mean unlike animated stuff . We have so so many books.. I if I could hear you rant about Dan s Eisenhorn or the new renegades book . That would make my day.. Might add a new dynamic to the channel . And we won't have to wait until those guys put out a new movie
the only thing i have heard about the warhammer universe is what you said, from some friends that taught me the teaching of the God Emperor . Any links to learn about the old world and sigmar and those rats and lizards and vampires and whatever else it has.
@@mltz23 go concern yourself with something that matters instead of 2 seconds of footage taken from a publicly available trailer. Your sense of scale and concern is laughable
@@Counterpoints It wasn't actually publicly available, it was leaked content ripped from the creator's paid patreon and uploaded to TH-cam. The irony, using the Astartes 2 trailer for your intro to review Warhammer plus content when Warhammer plus/games workshop is the reason we wont be seeing Astartes 2. Anyway, you do you bro.
I don't know about y'all, but I personally think "I could use some ale!" is the most satisfying line delivery in the whole episode.
Ep. 10 : Eldritch Body Horror
Ep. 11 : Action Comedy
Another proof that Warhammer can be *anything* , and still be Warhammer.
Hands down the best Hammer and Bolter episode set in Fantasy
it's great but that witch hunter one
Yeah, especially seeing how more than 5 pixels per minute have moved in each scene xD
Are you joking??? Age of Sigmar absolutely sucks.
@@PedroC-hk6po Found the AoS hater that knows nothing about AoS.

Even Sigmar had to give him credit, literally couldnt afford to let him lose

that was cunningly brutal
No. It was brutal cunning
Gork and Mork would be impressed with that Git
I imagine half the orcs were too far away to hear Hamilcar's offer and just started fighting because orcs being orcs.

Either that or he's just such a Chad that even The Reforging couldn't strip away his personality.
Such is the power of Nagash

Read his book, he has died several times but sigmar seems to like him a bit more than the rest
@@enterthemancave6324 Color me damn well interested, can you pass me a name of the series?

My thoughts exactly
@@Counterpointswas the purple dude holding back the whole time or he’s not a very good fighter?
@@Uncleruckus33 he was holding back.
You picked this one because you resemble Hamilcar!😂 Great episode!👍
Love the ironjawz here show they just want to fight. Not good not evil just fighting an having a good time
Foighting iz foighting!
@@Counterpoints I saw that comment before it got deleted XD Great profile pic, they had 😅
@@Counterpointshave you ever seen the ultramarine movie from 2010?
@@Uncleruckus33 I did. It was mid but enjoyable
@@Counterpoints nice, but I as there a reaction video or was it off screen?

@@RuerlKhan very based
That Intro is FIRE, I watched is like a dozen times : )
Thanks for explaining more on this version of WH, I could not understand why everything went mid-evil.
This episode is mythological levels of cunning. That's why I love Age of Sigmar.
Always awesome to see counterpoints upload a new vid
18:22 should have been "Cunning and Brutal"
Foreal
This is me vicariously living out the fantasy of having a maxed charisma stat. 😊
I've only ever been interested in in 40k... but damn, now I kind of want to learn more about fantasy.
It’s not bad
The best episode of Hammer and Bolter ever! Hamilcar Rules!
“Nothing or double Jack” - Big trouble in little China
I have to admit, I like this one a lot.
If your gonna be an immortal lightning soldier, you might as well do it with a bit of swagger :)
love the Animation, Story, and Fun violence!
I heard a theory that, The Event Horizon passed through and was lost in the warp. Thats why everyone went mental.
It’s true and part of the unified timeline
I mean, that is literally what happened, just depends on whether you believe it was Warhammer's universe warp or not. There's no reason it couldn't be
The bro who got beat enchanted the heck out of his armour his enchantments enchant itself just so it can enchant itself again the enchantments itself bows down to the thunderous power of his god to enchant itself
How….enchanting.
Sometimes it’s better to trick your opponent rather then fight them head on
Probably the best in the series.
Awesome episode! Really funny and clever.
My absolute 1000% favorite episode
This is my FAVORITE Hammer and Bolter episode!!!!
How?? Age of Sigmar is awful compared to Warhammer Fantasy.......
Funny how the Counterpoints40k guy looks exactly like Hammelcar
this one stormcast has seemingly more personality then every space marine in 40k
Do you think the Ork believe he's Mork in the flesh?
Nah, but in many ways, we are what we worship
I don't really like the Age of Sigmar stuff, but Hamilcar has a charm that I love a lot
Comment for the comment gods. May the algorithm be kind to you. Also love the sheer joy of this episode and its character
Essentially with enough confidence and bullshit artistry. Will get you into everywhere and anywhere 😂😂
This guy gives off obi-wan kenobi vibes, I like it.
Actually did not know Orks and Humans could communicate
They actually have a level of diplomacy in certain factions/time periods
he could have just directed the orks towards any chaos strong hold or deamon, demons love to fight, orks love to fight, they would be going at each other and taking pressure off any sigmar settlement, not sure why he didint try that oh well.
they probably didn't see him coming!!
Hey I would love to see you review books man..
I mean unlike animated stuff . We have so so many books..
I if I could hear you rant about
Dan s Eisenhorn or the new renegades book .
That would make my day..
Might add a new dynamic to the channel . And we won't have to wait until those guys put out a new movie
I might do book review livestreams we’ll see
Didn't like the comedy, too much for WH.
But, at the same time, it's fucking hilarious & at the end it's like poetry, it rhymes. Well done.
Hey question, where is the intro for this channel from? I'd love to watch more of that!
Astartes 2 trailer
Idont get this is this in warhammer universe like some kind of alternative reality ?
Great job love from uk 🇬🇧
What is the intro animation from? I’m dying to know
Astartes 2 trailer
Thanks 🎉
the only thing i have heard about the warhammer universe is what you said, from some friends that taught me the teaching of the God Emperor . Any links to learn about the old world and sigmar and those rats and lizards and vampires and whatever else it has.
I need an episode of world eaters the best melee warriors and close combat legion.
So good!
It'd be so nifty if you did a Space King vid.
Your intro is incredible! What’s that animation from?
Astartes 2 trailer
@@Counterpoints thank you
What the name on the series and which ap can I se it on?
Hammer and Bolter and Warhammer TV. Links in the description
So there’s a obi wan in warhammer with lighting powers
I absolutely love this one makes me laugh
We really need ironjawz in fantasy games thay are so cool
He is so smart
Stormcast.... fantasy era Space Marine
is hamilcar voiced by matt perry?
sry if you make your screeen smaller it would help on the vids, again sry
😓😓🪐🪐
Is…is that Captain Chef?!?!?
Who is the voice actor 🤔
Matthew Hunt - also voices the Hamilcar audio book and various other animations / audio dramas..
Hamilcar has the biggest ego I've ever seen.
Thats make a strange kinda of sense....
Whats everyone favorite chapter of space marines CAN ONLY HAVE ONE mine is the space wolves
The only correct answer is Salamanders. If illiterate Corgi's are your thing, don't let me stop you.
But don't ask me to respect you for it either...
extremely mork behavior
