Stirland Lore Total War: Warhammer 

Nobody wants to visit Stirland. I hear there is even an entry in the Great Book of Grudges about Stirland because they once served a dwarf lord boiled beer.

About the boiled beer. In Germany we call that "stacheln". The terms comes from the word "Stachel" which means sting. Stacheln works pretty well with Ale or darker beers in general. It is not so much about making the beer boil, but about caramelizing the sugar that is in the beer. This will intensify the taste of the beer and depending on the beer it will get a nice vanilla aroma. It is worth noting that you only put the hot metal in the beer for a few seconds. The total temperature of the beer should only be raised by a few degrees.

How does a stirlander tell the difference between his wife and his cattle? He can’t!!!

Love these empire provinces videos...

Can you do a similar series about dwarven karaks... please?

You are quite the storyteller! I have been a fan of Warhammer (40,000 mostly, but Fantasy as well) since I got my first White Dwarf magazine back in about 1987- I was in a comic book/ used books shop at about age 12, and was looking for some inspiration for drawing. Something different, something I hadn’t seen before- and I picked up a copy of the magazine. Over the years, I read every issue that I could get my hands on (not too many, unfortunately- kind of hard to find as a kid in the US with very limited funds). Until three years ago, that was all the exposure to Warhammer that I had, and then I decided to look for a GW store in my area. Since then, I’ve spent most of my disposable income on 40K- codices, novels, and models, finally- I decided to paint, and have been hooked since. But I didn’t find AOS to be enough like the old Fantasy world that I had loved so much. I’m not a gamer- video or tabletop- but I love the lore, and I love drawing and painting the models, but I really missed Fantasy, and couldn’t find much that wasn’t 40K or AOS- until I stumbled across your channel. I watched one video and immediately subscribed- and for the past few days, I’ve been binge watching your videos. They’re fantastic- and exactly what I’d been missing and looking for all this time! I just wanted to express my sincere thanks for all of the hard work that you must have put into this channel and all these videos. I have a feeling that as soon as I reach the last one, I’m just going to start back at the beginning and watch them all over again. Thank you- your storytelling style is wonderful and very enjoyable- and you’ve given me a great many hours of entertainment of the highest quality.

Loving these. keeping fantasy alive :) p.s. Nagash previously invaded the empire so technically the empire has seen a larger force of undead. One of the south elector counts was even turned vampire. Solland or wissenland.

I kinda wanna know more about Chieftain Freya, from what I've read of her in the wikia pages for the Sigmar books she's kind of a bad ass.

I wonder how the timeline would have been different if, nine months after that night, Queen Freya gave birth to a child that looked like Sigmar.

Just want to say, I did nominate you as a hobby hero in GW newest marketing stunt

18:50 "lob globs of shit at you"... kinda glides off the tongue, doesn't it?

I would love if CA does the Empire knighthood/orders justice within the second and third game. Would love to see DLC for the overall "end days" for the Empire and Chaos forces within the third game when daemons/chaos marks joins the game.

Yay more lore videos. I found something to be thankful for. Now if only they wouldn't get smashed by vlad in the first 10 turns of my campaigns.

thank you thank you thank you! I was eagerly awaiting for some Stirland knowledge

Please do Kraka Drak or any other Dwarfen holds

Vampire armor looks like GW let some 12 years old to design it. "I'm red, I'm spiky, I'm badass" :D

I’m glad there’s a 40 minute video about Stirland lmao

35:00 Sign of the 'Evil Eye' is the 'devil horns' people do in Heavy Metal.

Hey I know this is an old video but I feel it is worth pointing out, I don't know whether it's been pointed out elsewhere, but Morr is not a traditional Empire god, he's actually a Classical god native to Tilea and Estalia. The Cult of Morr is actually an import cult like Verena, Myrmidia, Shallya and Khaine (yes the southerners actually worship the Elven god Khaine, has something to do with the fact that they built all their cities and city-states off of old Elven ruins and have a love for Elven culture. The native Empire pantheon consists of Ulric, Taal, Rhya, Manaan and technically Sigmar. So that's why Morr has its capital in Tilea as opposed to the Empire, not because the Empire doesn't like Morr, but because Morr is technically a foreign import god.

Stirland's revenge?

Yes my favorite province :DD

No one Likes stirland. THEY SERVED BOILED BEER. AND THEY WHERE SERIOUSLY

That reminds me. I should put some beer in the fridge for the release of the stellaris update tomorrow.

Finally lore again!!!

Great Lore Video mate, nice 1 👍

"Fucking pie.... FUCKING FISH HEAD!!"

Knights of Morr Immune to fear and terror Causes fear Silent

12:15 He got 'Ol Manny in the heart didn't he?

Good I would love a provinces expansion for Warhammer

Great videos!

Warm beer tastes bad but this is my favourite province.

Well, interesting custom. Throw shit at new people. How to start a conflict: It was just a prank, bro!

i was all on board with Stirland, but after hearing about the warm beer thing they shall be wiped out and replaced with a halfling puppet council.

18:30 you forgot demigryph shit

Thanks, really cool video. Where do you get your info from? do you happen to have any more detail on anything in Sylvania? I'm working on a mod and am trying to trawl up every little detail I can about the province.

Talos Stormcrown. Probably got himself there through the Elder Scrolls. Talos is a Stirlander, lol.

The strange Cults and strange gods that they worship are clear HP Lovecraft references

Hi, are you planing on doing Reikland, and if so when. I would really appreciate that, thx :)

i wonder, why didnt the stirlanders just take the moot back by force? Halflings arent weak, but they seem outnumbered and at a disadvantage to their stirland neighbors.

I really do enjoy these

good one butt i will like to see High Elves provinces lore !!!!!!!!

i await the day a high elf visits Stirhügel

You were surprisingly close with "Stirhügel", just put the emphasis on Stir

Can you do Solland?

ah talos an evil god the Aldmer were right to ban his worship

So their motto is effectively: VICTORIS AUT MORTIS!

good video

What about Bylorak, God of the Swamp his followers were badass!

It's a shame the Stirlanders didn't retain any of their original culture particularly the matriarchal aspect that've actually set them apart/make them stand out from rest of the Empire.

May Talos guide you

is stirland named after the ruhr? because that's kinda clever.

I thought stirlands colors were green and yellow what's with the green and red?

o hell yeah

Asking for her armies and people and the only thing that she asked from him is to sleep with her? Wtf? :D

Probably modeled after real geo region I live in, Styria

They should get rid of Confederation mechanic, I just see this faction as potential reikland terrirtory.

I think Wolkmar should in stir land so he could fight the vamps

How is warm beer more disgusting than having animal shit thrown at you by little kids????????

Who is Talos? Cant find any info on him.

Ew peasents!

Patriotic doot

Holy shit, the people of Stirland remaind me so much of japanese people.

NULN. Not Nul-in

Other province are still better than Stirland!
