Nurgle: I shall test his body and strength with countless plagues and sickness
Tzeentch: I will test his mind and will with visions and sights that would rend a normal mortal's mind
Slaanesh: I will test his mettle and strength of conviction by tempting him with countless untold pleasures
Khorne: FIGHT HIS ASS!
I imagine khornes like a gang initiation with a bunch of blood letters stomping his ass
One of the very best villains in all fantasy. Archaon, the man who hates the gods that he fights for. The man who wants to watch the world burn.
Please tell me you're being sarcastic.. 🙃
@@Doomseer Archaon is one of the few good things in End Times
@@Doomseer please tell me you are
@@amandag.6186 Wow it's like neither of you have even seen any of the unga bunga Wulfric vs Archaon memes.. 😒
@@Doomseer i seen it.
Not funny. Didn't laugh.
Finally the Everchad
Archeon was a tale that sometimes destiny could never be avoided, but simply lead closer the longer we fight against it.
Despite the fact Be’lakor kept altering things so he didn’t die or fail each time.
Or writers willed it
@@SilentSpringz just like real life.
weeeeellllll it wasn't his destiny. his destiny was to become the champion of sigmar. then tzeentch thought it'd be funny to send him a fake destiny through mail and he believed it
@@jymjym7995I mean you can’t really go un-postal. Archaon was stuck with his choice.
3:07 "Three things that made the Empire great. Faith, Steel and Gunpowder." - Magnus the Pious
"Not great enough" -Archaon
@@amandag.6186 "You only have one of these and not a lot of it." - TTS Magnus the Red
While I was playing Immortal Empires, I asked myself "wouldn't being the Everchosen mean you are the _Ultimate Warrior_ of Chaos?" after which I reimagined all of his lines being shouted by Jim Helwig.
You sir have a beautiful mind
I'm now imagining Archaon helping the Skaven with their plot in 2's vortex campaign. *"LOAD THE SPACESHIP WITH THE ROCKET FUEL, LOAD IT WITH THE WORDS!!"*
you're videos always make me want to start new campaigns with the characters you cover
Your*
*Archaon: The Darth Vader of Chaos!!!* 👹
Archeon is a way better villain than Abbadon the Despoiler.
I know this may not be a high praise for many have little good to say about the Warmaster of Chaos.
I have to say that it did feel that Archeon fought and won all his powerful swag and victories.
Facts I like 40k more but abbadon sucks compared to archeon
Archaon absolutely solos failbaddon the (h)armless
Agreed, I got into 40k first and like it more overall but I'll take the everchad over angry man with a busted sword
I still don't like the hate Abaddon gets, I mean sure the other crusades f$%#ed up, but Cadia is destroyed.
nah abbadon is awesome, read his trilogy.
Archaon, my Lad - realy love that Guy.
Some People just wanne see the old World Burn - I feel that.
Okoii has forever stained my eyes with the helmet upside down smile 🙃
The true mark of chaos
It's insane how he went from a devout follower of sigmar to a demi God of an ever chosen. I love his mount in age of sigmar which is why I hope they visit age of sigmar in total war before they see warhammer 40K.
Seems to me that AoS Total war is more likely than 40k
@@amandag.6186 oh yes. They already have a good grasp on the old world. Age of sigmar would be no different.
Gods no.
Very cool the narration collaboration guys. You should do it more often. Amazing!
Thank you for the kind words Frank 💚
He's just a spiky humie git, da gobbos n' boyz are much bettah! Hah!
Jus' 'butt 'im in the 'noggin.
So basically this guy would have had the same reaction to finding out he was given up for adoption or some such. A true physical incarnation of 'well that escalated quickly'.
Kermit the frog warning me of the coming of Archaon really goes hard in a way i cant explain
27:03 perfection
Edit: bro literally thought I was listening to a black library audiobook at this segment Jonathon keeble status badass
what was the music that was playing along side it?
"Ah shit look out it's fuckin *Diederick* the Lord of the Edge Times! Whadda ya gonna do *DD* blow up the world cause daddy Sigmar left you on read?"
(The End Times occurs and I die horribly)
archaon the 'wont stay dead forcing me to have to push north more and more'
i never know he is the 13th everchosen. Kinda hardcore. Now I wish a series for all of them.
Tldr, they died
@@abdullahirfan9991 not sure I can imagine the previous 12 had announced retirement with grand kids and small wood cottage at sea side.
@@nightsage217 grandpa nurgle comes along every now and again to both give sweets and cookies to the kids and play with them, Uncle khorne ends up being a bit too rough and harsh, uncle tzeennch starts getting all political on the dinner table, slaanesh is ironically caring and loving. Meanwhile belakor is just messing with them. (Why did I just imagine and picture all of this on my head? Must be some tzeennch bullshit)
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS
ARCHAON! I CHOSE YOU!
It’s all fun and chaos, until Grimgor enters the chat.
Where is Peter Jackson! We need him to bring 40k to the big screen.
Is your brain dead?
@1:15 Absolutely terrifying
Great video. It would be cool to add the text as writing like in old videos, anyone that is not a native English speaker would be very grateful to be able to read some words that are hard to understand by sound only.😁
You are right! The intent is to do this again eventually. Maybe in 2-3 more videos we will return to this format as I'm still learning a new editing editing software.
How ironic, the man who hates gods most, became someone worshipped.
Just had to say it: what you do is awesome!!! :) I can so imagine this into a move, it will be friken epic if you run the show!!! :) What is the inspiration behind it? Do you create the story?
Archaon loves his enthusiastic walk when the End Times has begun on The World That Was.
It’s just a shame he never obtained slaaneshs athletic cup
The only ones who can stop him, the Lizard men.
2 problems:
1. They were to busy with a big @$$ vermin problem
2. They decided to just abandon ship after that
Forget the Chaos Gods,
Forsake Sigmar and the rest of the human gods,
Down with the Dwarf and Elven Gods of old,
Hail the Everchosen, HAIL ARCHAON!
HAIL ARCHAON.
Where's Gringor you need him well hes just too busy killing the chaos Dwarbs.
What’s your army composition you used at the end? I would love to recreate it in my playthrough.
This would make such an intense film.
Me: All hail Archaon! Lord of the End Times!
Warriors and Daemons of Chaos: All hail Archaon! Lord of the End Times!
Me: Bow to your dark master my friends!
Warriors and Daemons of Chaos (cheering, roaring, screaming and shrieking)
And I like Dorghar the most because he his the most badass daemonic war horse in the Warhammer Fantasy history. But in Age of Sigmar, Dorghar's daemonic beast looks very hardcore too!
Richard Von Carstein: the everchosen, the true lord of chaos, and master of the end times
Abaddon: a true champion of chaos, and the slayer of kings
Chaos marines: HAIL ARCHAON
Chaos Guardsmen: HAIL ARCHAON
Chaos Cultists: HAIL ARCHAON
Excellent 👌👌👌
Until grimgor Ironhide kicked his ass.
6:15 What is the name of the music that's used here? Sounds badass af
I would pay good money to have the end times prevented.
As would we all I would imagine.
I wouldn't honestly
@@ClovenOnes Fair enough
@@jackstrayfeald1007 me neither
I would
I'd do alot for that yeah
Ok, so Archaon is edgy, evil, powerful and cool. But we already KNEW that. WHY did he want to become the Everchosen? WHAT caused him to become disillusioned with humanity? HOW COME he decided to pledge himself to the chaos gods if he hated them? WHAT was his goal?
He did not pledge himself to the Chaos Gods. He was never a servant of the Dark Gods. He too was a player in their Grand Game. He became the Everchosen because he was the strongest and the smartest warrior. He always despised the Gods, whether they are the Gods of the Old World or the Chaos Gods. He despised those who pledged themselves to the Gods too. He thought, if he burned the whole world, kill every living being, than the Chaos Gods would starve. And, with the destruction of the weak and old world, he thought its husk would become a shell of a stronger world which can endure. And, with the power of the Eye of Sheerian, he even saw a future where he succeeded. All the steps he took, all the atrocities he committed were for reaching that goal. He wanted to create a strong world, which can endure all the hardships, free from the influences of the Gods.
How would the Sword of Khaine do against him?
25:03 Settle down, Kermit.
An epic tale he has. No clue what he doing post End Times after Sigmar loses his hammer
Age of Sigmar
@@Ty-ie2mi no clue what Sigmar doing in Age of Sigmar* after he loses his hammer. Just chilling in his realm?
Hilariously, Grimgor Ironhide kicked Archaon in the balls and defeated him.
sadly it was redconned to a headbutt that destroyed the eye of sheerian.
They Watch then...
Not canon, get over it
@@amandag.6186 Lol canon to me can't believe GW tries to make this guy intimidating after having written that
@@amandag.6186 it's Canon because I say it is
I have a massive orc in skyrim. Dark red skin. Misses one eye. Covered in scars and tribal tattoos. Dude's a fucking tank. Looks the part aswel. Downloaded Archaons voice for him. Most badass orc in the history of elder scrolls. I'd debate and fight anyone who disagrees.
11:05 Icecrown citadel
Love the video! The music is a little loud during some of the dialogue though :(
The music makes the video lol
Invade mortal world
Refuse to elaborate
Leave
Chad move
1:09 Anyone know where this soundtrack comes from?
Ohhh, this is where you've been hiding? Siding with chaos and touting their horrific exploits. First elves, now chaos? What's next? Is there an worse? More deploable? It's okay, it's all data entered into my inquisitorial tome. Soon Sigmar will clean this mess up. You'll see!
WOW, the cheek!! I will ALWAYS be a pretty elf ^-^ Might be on the slaaneshi side too
Nice
25:04 funny flagellant voice
Archaon needs to be elevated to the chaos god of vengeance or something like that. They also need to make archaon mounted on horse version dorghar -so its cheaper- so I can play him with a larger army xD
There already was a chaos god of vengeance...Malal my beloved T^T
@@alpharius1497 aye but they kinda forgot about him sadly. Would just like to see archaon reach apotheosis but still be playable on the tabletop
@@alpharius1497 Malal is not god of vengance that would be Solon
I dunno I think him becoming a god robs him of more character than it gives him
There are many powerful demons and gods that rant and growl about vengeance but only one Archaon
I can't think of a stupider reason to turn to Chaos than what we see in this guy's origin story. Someone told him it was prophesied and he couldn't shake it. Someone that weak-minded would never have passed any test that Tzeentch put against him. But then again, it wouldn't be GW lore without a gaping implausibility.
Yet he did.
Gotta read the books lmao this is just a short recap
he did try to shake it dummy, he literally hung himself to ensure it wouldn't happen and yet fate forbade him to die
what about gork-n-mork or mork-n-gork
But Imagine, 2m human pressin to the ground the TANK
Crew of a tank O.O
Abbadarchaon!
First, even if some of it is a little unpolished, that narration is amazing. Real talent! That alone deserves a sub.
Second, I am only disappointed that the lore didn't include how Archaon was humiliatingly defeated by Grimgor Ironhide, of all the characters, in the Storms of Chaos campaign that was supposed to decide the fate of the world. Elsewhere, his Chaos host was roundly smashed. All that lore, all that plot armor, and still, he was brough low by a simple Ork.
Third, this fact leads me to believe that the terrible revelation given to Archaon, which made him curse the gods even as he fulfilled their twisted plans, was that GW was going to retcon that campaign anyway if he didn't win. He realized that they're the real Chaos gods, and as such, that life for Warhammer minis is meaningless, because they could just ham up everything good anyway.
lol he wasnt defeated. archaon 2v1ed two of the greatest champions of sigmar, and WON. one of them had ghal maraz and was the reincarnation of sigmar himself.
and then grimgor came out of the blue, snuck up on archaon, headbutted him, and ran away like a little bitch because if he had stayed archaon would have absolutely annhilated him.
You sound like the Advisor. How?!?!
What I don't get if he hated Chaos why do what they want anyway? Could he just ignore it?
I know, right? I mean, if I was destined to destroy the world and I hated the entities making me do it, I'd just kill myself.
@@arcdecibel9986 He tried to kill himself first. The Chaos Gods didn't let him die. Then he begged Sigmar but his desperate prayers remains unanswered. Sigmar abandoned him. After that, his brothers and sisters who fought by his side come to kill him. He had no choice other than living as Archaon.
Also, destruction of the Old World was never the Chaos Gods' will. It was Archaon's attempt to starve them all. Fantasy Archaon didn't care anything or anyone. The only person he trusts was dead. Even the girl he loved was a pawn of Slaanesh from the beginning. Revenge was everything he had left. And so, he just wanted the Chaos Gods dead, even if the cost was the world itself.
@@diederickkastner And they CHOSE him for this? I mean, it would be a cool story if it involved some way by which he tricked the gods, only to backstab them at the last moment, but that wasn't even close to what happened.
Instead, Chaos was so weak that it couldn't get out Norsca, Grimgor Ironhide beat the shit out of him, and of all the people, Nagash ended the world by accident. Make that plotline add up for me, because you're actually very good at telling a story.
so he wants to destroy the world because of daddy issues...
Okay Archaon vs Abbadon the Despoiler. Who wins?
Archaon
While Archaon should win, we know GW wants Abbadon to win as to not be bum- hurt that their juiced bad guy lost to the obvious chad
Bro, narration was mostly awesome, but you gotta work on your voice a bit. It still a hair short of sounding cool, and fell within sounding cringe of the spectrum. Straining your voice to the point it cracks during around 2:00 to around 4:30 is one such segment
And so many think the Choas God's won at the Endtimes. No Archaon won. He screwed everyone over lol.
anyone know the song that plays at 1:10 ?
Book of choyer is the best warhammer channel. Major kill is too cringy for me to enjoy
I know this has had been said before but this story must have been what blizzard stole to make the lich king. Literally same vibe entirely.
👏
Valten continued his fight with Archaon he received a mortal blow that knock him back but Valten continue on with his will as each strike sounded like thunder between there weapons
As Lance continued his fight with the four chaos gods as they could not beat him for they use deception to promise him the things of the world like they've done too so many heroes of the past for they would try to corrupt Lance if they could not destroy him
Nurgle offered him the power to save all
Slaanesh offered him too be with moonshade and Evewind
Tzeentch offered him to go back in time to save himself from being the vampire count
Khorn offered him power beyond power to be his greatest warrior to serve him at his side for a saw Lance as a warrior without equal how he would bring many skulls and blood to his throne
As Lance stood silent he laughed you fools you promised me the things of the world yet you take the things of the world they're nothing but lies promises that you will never deliver
If this is the best you could do then you're truly weak I pity you the only reason why you corrupted so many cuz they were so weak
For you fear me because you know you cannot control me you cannot bribe me you cannot destroy me you know why because looked into the abyss and saw me staring back at you
You fear me because you breathe life you give life you take life and therefore you have a life like all things in the world those that
have a beginning has an end
Valten kneeled to his knee as Archaon attacks finally brought him down then raised his sword ready for the last death blow
Your champion will not prevail for my power will aid Valten Sigmar reborn now Witness the power of death as Lance Drew all his will and power he felt sigmar's life draining away as he was about to die
I Lance son of morr I called to you Valten reborn of sigmar rise from your grave as Lance's shadowy essence turn into a wailing hurricane of epic proportions for chaos gods seen his true form as it was huge overbearing hurricane vengeful souls of the Dead as translucent white eyes form like Windows to morr in the middle of the swirling mass of the Dead they then The souls of the Damned cried out for the chaos gods souls wanting to devour them for they realize Lance was the realm limbo incarnate where there was no coming back
As they feared his gaze they retreated back into their own realms in fear Lance's Aura struck Valten sigmar reborn as this was Lance's destiny too give his essence to Sigmar the balance between life and death light and darkness
As Valten wounds healed his Aura of give every soldier within the field of battle the strength of a thousand men as the chaos forces were no match for they struck at them with the fury of the gods
Then Valten Struck Archaon with Ghal Maraz the blow was so devastating that light pierced his armor throughout his back as the Lord of end times scream with the howl death as his body vaporized on the field of battle
Then the fore chaos gods felt Archaon essence vanished from the realm of life scaring them as they try to flee from Lance
That's right flee where I cannot follow but know this when you finally be defeated by Sigmar successor I'll be waiting when you take your last breath when you find yourself at my feet waiting to be dragged down to limbo
Then Lance's body gave way as his last of his essence went to Velten reborn
Preventing the end times those a new era Begin it was call uncertain times where it was always the same heroes evil villains fought and died over the old world as new Gods
Walk amongst the old world and new younger races were finally appearing where they would play
the eternal game of war and life
In a bloody age a age of demons and sorcery where the old world
will need heroes then ever before
WTF is this ?
@@tamhuynhminh2833 assuming it’s this guy’s fanmade character being written in here for some reason rather than a dedicated site
how would he fair against the likes of Abaddon?
He would spit him in the face in the worst way, if the latter knew that he was incapable of behaving like a true general in 10,000 years of service on the chaos.
I would bet that the harmless armless Faibaddon will end up decapitated with his hand for his inability to win battles.
And despite doing all these things, he got his ass handed to him by the biggest and greatest Warboss alive
Sheesh, you have a low opinion of Grimgor
@@ClovenOnes Yeah Archaon was made a joke after being kicked in the balls by Grimgor Ironhide.
Now GW retconned by Grimgor headbutting Archaon instead as if it will make it less humiliating.
Not canon get over it
@@amandag.6186 The salt on Archaon is strong with this one
👁👁👁
Basically the Anti-Christ of Warhammer.
I saw a purely tzeentchian version of Archaon.
Could it happen that he chooses Tzeentch as his supreme master?
Is it a logical decision?
(Especially if the Architect of Fate has foreseen it and moved the pieces)
Can't say I am a fan of Archaon's design, or anything about him actually. Pretty lackluster for being a 'Lord of the Apocalypse'.
Morkar’s armour’s whole thing is that it was pretty unadorned and practical, showing how he is not dedicated to any of the gods but rather to the darkness of chaos itself, I honestly quite like the design so I’m probs biased tho
Yes the End of Times!
Weak
@@JESUS-IS-THE-MASTER-OF-MANKIND u
Fuck the end times
His descent into chaos story was very weak.
People generally leave out a lot of it. One extremely important part that is missed in this video is the fact that his brothers of the Templar order he was in had been trying to kill him because they read the book b4 him and that ultimately caused him to read it himself. With this added to it I find it to make a lot more sense for him to b so desperate for Sigmar to aid him
The most Gary Stu character of all time
IDK about all time but very close!
not sure what you're talking about honestly
@@ClovenOnes A mary sue or gary stu in males case is a character written so they never fail or have god like powers and such.
@@tanks608 No, that is not what a Mary Sue is.
A Mary Sue is a character who is not only good at everything they do without explanation or set up, better at everything earlier established characters have done, liked by both allies and begrudgingly respected by enemies and has generally little conflict to their character and is often an author self insert.
A Mary/Marty Sue/Stu is NOT just “a character who is strong.“
@@tanks608 So you don't know anything about Archaon, and you don't know what a Mary Sue is, and you're also saying the Everchosen should be weak, Archaon is and should be powerful, the best part about him is that he had to work to get to that point, Archaon literally and figuratively went through hell and back to get to his position and power, nothing about him is Mary sue, someone already has explained to you what a Mary Sue is, so I doubt I need to explain as well
Thats what a call a bad acting, when you act in a fucking ad 1:30
Kek
the horns are so hilarious...
The shit times was just fan fiction and he was a punk meh
Archaon is definition of Sigma, just took everything he wanted, no compromision.
Archaon the Gary Stue King, Lord of the Drab Times
Should have powered up wulfrik instead
But in compare to the other legendary lords his mount is... well.. not impressive XD
Dragons, T-rexes, Wywerns
....a MIGHTY GIVEN BY DARK GODS.... pony.
XDDDD
Ah yes, Archaon the everchosen (more like neverchosen). The characther thats always associated with bad writing and bad things that end times brought to warhammer fantasy. He is hated as Mannfred and Negash (maybe less so, but he is mostly associated with endtimes).
Cope and seethe
I wasn't aware Negash was hated. Why do WH fans hate him?
@@barryb90 destoyed settra and he is just an asshole and nothing alse.
@@barryb90 also an architect of the end times
@@daveeol1987 i mean, the lad was trying to prevent Archaon's version of the End Times by siding with everyone who was against Chaos so there's that
