Though its sad to see Kislev running out of engagement, it'd be still cool to see it posted in the main channel, I love the Kislev campaign so much!

Ruinous, I give you two options. One, ignore Cathay at all costs. They are ruled by Dragons, and Imrik when confronted by multiple dragons might get a little... excited. The other, invade Cathay and either wipe out or vassalise all of the Northern Provinces and Western Provinces. Imrik has a Dragon problem, and he needs them under him. *Slaaneshi giggle*

All you Eragon fans go wild on this one: Saphira, the name of the protagonist's Dragon

In local news High elves interrupt pool party pocal authorities have made a statement "This is a grudging"

You've done the one thing I'd never thought possible Ruinous, you've gotten me excited for anything to do with Elves!

Lewd stuff doesn't count, right? R-r-right?

Imrik's updated intro is amazing. He really is the best at the smug smik.

The worst part about Imriks down looking attitude is, that it is rightly deserved

*laughs in Lizardman* That's cute.

Ruinous you genuinely are my favorite youtuber right now, thank you for bringing countless hours of entertainment and joy to my days :) ROCK ONNNN

"Diplomacy! lets check you out. Anddd that was a horrible waste of time" actually made me laugh out loud xD keep up the good vidoes!

Looking forward to this one. Hopefully the donut isn't too much of a mess by the time you get there. 40:00 You lose a recruitment slot when you don't collect income.

It's funny, I since there's almost never a reason to untick taxation in vanilla (since public order and growth aren't an issue there), plus not generally recruiting in newly conquered territories (including in SFO) I've used the effect so rarely that I never noticed!

"All you dragons belongs to us" i see what you did there 😂

Love when ruinous brings lore to The video is actually pretty interisting you should probably do more of It.

My glorious king imrik rises again. Time for him to solo this campaign. Sun dragon name- splendor

Not a big high elf fan, but Imrik is the one I'd be down to try. Very excited for you to make me enjoy this faction as much as you have Kislev!

These series have been a blessing and a curse, both because there something comfortable to fall asleep too. And because some of the cinematic battles make it very very difficult to actually fall asleep.

Tariff memes intensify

Finally the fresh battle smell of a new campaign ..... Send in the dragons

I was waiting for this! Love to see this play through! Have fun mr ruinous

High elves action love it ❤ Killing Dawi must be satisfying since they drove the Asur from the Old world! Sweet Revenge

Very excited for this series, thanks Ruinous!!

Never seen an Imrik campaign before, looking forward to see you play. Love your content

Played this SFO campaign a lot. 2 pieces of advice: 1 kill all Skaven nearby they’re the only real threat. 2 incorporate gate guard into your armies as their aoe buff massively improves your archers

Don't forget #3, the Lothern Sea Guard are worth it, both of them. They make an excellent mid or even front line.

Hey, Ruinous! I absolutely love Warhammer fantasy and Dark Souls. I figured that you could name the Sun Dragon Solaire! It would definitely bring a smile to my face whenever I see it.

Name for dragon princes. Royal Raiders. As you they seem to be often used running around the back ends of enemy armies

Awesome, I love Imrik! I (and Imrik) would be really happy if you allied with Miao Ying as soon as possible and kept her alive the whole campaign :D

8:12 yep that's a grudgin'

Imrik is my favorite Campaign. I'm so pumped for this one.

super excited for the high elf campaign. Glory to the algorithm. Heres to extended episodes

I haven't watched it yet, but I'm pre-liking and commenting so I can enjoy a 2+ hour watch session before work tomorrow

I’ve been waiting for you to start this campaign

Love your stuff man.

I am so excited for this playthrough!

I already love the campaign, but oh man will it tear my heart seeing you clash with the dwarfs

name: the dragon Bob

Perfection.

Dude!! Hell the fuck yeah!!! Back at it again!!! The excitement!!

Been looking forward to this!

All your dragons are belong to us!!, Yes even the Cathyan one too!

Ambush defense chance... well, yes who wants to ambush a bunch of dragons.

Name for Units Spears: 'Imrik's Pointy Sticks' 'Poke a Mans' Dragons: 'Puff the Magic Dragon' 'Grigori' 'Scalie Bait' 'Imrik's Other Waifu' 'Someone's Fursona'

This will be a fun campaign. Imrik will rule the skies as he lights the ground alight in dragon fire!

Beard Weaver is a hero ancillary for Handmaiden, Loremaster, Mage, and Noble.

Wasn’t expecting this drop but let’s gooo

35:10 The walls killing anyone who falls off May have been changed because it insta kills single entities if the walls get destroyed.

The great grudge against the Elgi must be righted even if it means drowning in combat, that being said the dwarven comander will be put into the book for the loss of brave dwarves to Elgi and the water

Dragons, dragon prince's and elf arrows this campaign is going to be amazing

40:10 Turning off tax in a province also lowers local recruitment capacity by 1. So it was 3 before you turned off the taxes ;)

Great new series!

I was waiting for that one

Let’s go I’ve Ben looking for a high elf total war campaign to watch

Once you have them unlocked Imrik needs his Fireborne in his army! A name I thought of for the current Dragon Princes is The Scaled Riders, who in my mind have the shed scales of dragons incorporated in their armor for protection :)

Best warhammer KZreadr

Please go on as many lore rants as you want. I'm someone who gets all my warhammer lore from youtube and it's always interesting to listen.

I'm gonna confess, all my lore of WH comes from Ruinous

Fairly certain it's Handmaidens which boost casualty replenishment for HE, at least it is in vanilla. SFO might change that but I doubt it. Loving the campaign so far!

@RuinousInsight

I really hope not it's not handmaidens! They're only accessible via tier 4 buildings, which with SFO's slow growth would be like turn 50+

@@RuinousInsight it could be Loremasters tbf. But I’m fairly certain it’s handmaidens in vanilla

Great video

man it would be great if the named dragons would be lords instead of units. that would have made imriks campaign so much more unique and interesting

He has a dragon and is an elf so that’s not surprising, where does the slaaneshi giggle come from? Mayhaps the dragons can smell/sense ambushes coming or something along those lines

Ruinous, you should check out the Victory conditions overhaul! Adds more on top of the SFO content!!

Keep it Up my guy

Knifes ears, Yucky, let's see if you change my mind

yayyy high elfs my fav lets go

Can't wait for this awesome campaign Ruinous! Dragon Princes Name Idea: Destructive Dragoons (love alliterations!) Hopefully Imrik will bring fiery vengeance to all those who oppose the Asur! (And as spititual retribution to the hammering [Slaneeshi Giggle] the Elves faced in your Kislev Campaign lol)

New campaign hype!!

Good luck with Imrik, I always fall to chorfs or chaos lol

When you stop collecting income it reduces one of your recruitment slots that's why 3 -> 2. That's in vanilla too tho

Armies suggestions: Fire Army: Flamespyre Phoenixes, Fire Archmage and Phoenix Guard; with Gordinar as its dragon Lion Army: War Lions of Chrace, Life Archmage, White Lion Chariots and White Lions Infantry; with Bruwor as its dragon Shadow Army: all Nagarythe-themed units, Shadow Archmage; with Shackolot as its dragon Snowstorm Army: Frostheart Phoenixes, Sisters of Avelorn, Heavens Archmage; with Lamoureux as its dragon High Magic Army: Arcane Phoenixes, Yvresse-themed units, High Magic Archmage; with Ymwrath as its dragon

New campaign woot!

Can’t wait for high elves

For a red Dragon- Thorn This is an eragon reference

You should take the dragon isles from kugath for obvious reasons but it's also one of the most profitable provinces in the game

Thanks for the vid, I fell asleep listening to this

Yoo hoo!! Let's go.

Glory to the Drake Daddy. 🐲🐲 I like to name one of the Sun and Moon dragons being Antumbra the Solar and Penumbra the Lunar based on the different eclipse shadows.

Saving the lizardmen from kugath would be cool

Feel free to add all the lore bits you want. I enjoy them. Name Little Dragon Daddy (use as appropriate)

Daddy? Sorry- daddy? Sorry- da- *Shot*

Eltharion might have been the better choice because you'll once again be fighting Grimgor in the Dark Lands just like the Kislev campaign and he might even end up hitting the exact same settlement depending on how north you expand, he could also hit a settlement in The Wolf Lands province by marching an army or two through The Plain of Zharr province.

All hail the algorithm 😊

All glory to the Algorithm!

Man I love imrik lol

OOCUPY THE DRAGON ISLES

Finally Imrik❤

You should have a army lord that is Caleor II and have him use a chump army of all the worst high elf units while fighting dwarfs, just to be extra in keeping with the lore. Bonus points if he's killed by Gotrek!

You dont need to chase units in the first battle but you get more loot if the enemy Lord dies in the fight😊

Imrik ma boi

Oh hell yea

Unit name suggestions (dragon princes): the fangs of Guarin (a unit that always worked together with the dragon Guarin, who later died trying to protect her elven friends. Now, the remains of Gaurin have been turned into the very spears that the group uses so that they can fight alongside the dragon, even after her death.) (Any dragon): Agor Sylura (Phoenix guard): Caledors Gravekeepers. (A squadron dedicated to protecting the bones of the dragons. Even other elves can face an early doom if they enter the dragons' graves without permission)

good video

Nice

GLORY too thee algorithm.

Imrik!

Super Hype. For the algo!

When you do not collect income in a province you lose 1 recruitment slot.

Basically how to train your dragons for elves
