I mean guys, Gelt's reasoning is thoroughly explained in the books. He was exhausted, frustrated and extremely scared for his Empire,his status and his life if he couldn't manage to replicate his feat in Sylvania with the Auric Bastion. He wasn't stupid, he was just an extremely proud and lonely man, in no condition to work anymore... Let's remember that W&W hasn't covered all the undead antics thus far. Then, it's not "a priest", it's the Ar-Ulric himself. Volkmar is dead and the new Grand Theogonist is a fanatic who hates Gelt from the get go. And the Ar-Ulric and Gelt and Gelt had developed a deep friendship for years. And one of the reasons why Gelt was a bit mistrusted is because the raids by ship didn't stop at all. It's just that Chaos isn't a single force with a single navy, most tribes were simply land bound and didn't know about the bastion until well into Kislev. Gutrot Spume for once never once bothered assaulting the bastion via land. I mean, I get disliking the End Times and even disliking the whole narrative direction they've taken the characters, but some of these comments are just disingenuous. There's plenty of reasons to dislike the End Times without wrongly portraying its events haha

It's worse than you think xD. The first end times, Storm of Chaos was originally an ORDERTIDE. In that when it happened it was base off the actual player community results of games played and results tallied. The problem was that they released a chaos codex alongside it that was absolute shit from what I recall so Chaos did horrible with the exception of the Orcs and Skaven. So they had to bullshit their way around how Chaos got to the final battle in the first version despite losing every major battle. In the new version they just straight up write everyone as morons because they didn't want a repeat of chaos getting assraped again.

The end times is what it is, its not perfect, but to me one of the characters they got right was Vlad, I just love how they made him noble and ancient and the greatest ally of humanity when it really came down to the end of the world.... contrast that with the absolute stupidity of another Von Carstein.

Even without the demon, it's not like Ulric Cult was very friendly with Sigmar Cult and thus, to the Chosen of Sigmar. 23:43 like seriously, the hordes threatens to destroy the empire, the auric bastion is the only thing stopping them, and the priests just walk away? you do wonder how dumb they can be.

For the last question, the Cult of Sigmar basically refuses to support the Bastion after Gelt’s dealings with necromancy is revealed to all, deeming the work to be heretical if it was created by a corrupted man. Even Karl Franz wishes Volkmar the Grim were still alive instead of the then-head of the church Kaslain as he may have had a different reaction to the news of Gelt. Side note: the Order of the Templars of Sigmar, aka the Witch Hunters, persecute the entire Golden Order, the order to which Gelt belongs to, as they suspect that Gelt’s corruption reached to all of them. This allows the Amber Wizard Gregor Martak to become the Supreme Patriarch with Gelt’s absence.

The cult of Sigmarr really be like damn you used necromancy? Now we gotta let them kill us

It’s good seeing the Empire army in action from the actual Warhammer Fantasy Battles Game. And the Vampire Counts too. Kings and Generals/Wizards and Warriors I love your highly detailed, top-down videos depicting battles but there are several errors here. The battle itself takes place at the Ostermark village of Alderfen. The composition of the Empire and Chaos forces are a bit different too: yes, Wolfram Hertwig, Elector Count of Ostermark, leads the Empire forces and Festrak Krann, Chaos Lord of Nurgle, leads the Chaos forces but there are no Plague Toads, instead the Great Unclean One (Greater Daemon of Nurgle) Gurug’ath of the Endless Rot is present along with a Mutalith Vortex Beast, Aeson the Fallen. Also, Hertwig’s army is a mix of Middenland, Talabheim, Nordland, Wissenland and Ostermark soldiery and his Runefang is called Troll Cleaver, well known to prevent unnatural regeneration. I can go into how the battle goes down a bit differently in the book. Also, I’m assuming that Nagash’s third and final resurrection will be covered in another video but that would go onto explain why Vlad von Carstein is back: he was killed at the end of the First Vampire War but is brought back as the Mortarch of Shadow. Still, a great video!

The ones who attacked the Empire,the ones who attacked Kislev,the ones who attacked the Dark Elves...and THEN came Archaeon with even MORE Chaos. This is absolutely ridiculous.

Few named locations except the major places. The planes are these GIANT places expanding across locations many times the size of the old world that was. But there are few named cities or towns. You don’t have grand campaigns of the past like Vlads attempt to take over the empire. Or the many invasions of Chaos before the end times. The world rarely feels lived in.
