One of the most popular Wednesday night formats that has emerged amongst the history of Lorebeards is our totally-not-insane Tierlist streams that rank a particular subject within the Warhammer world. Today a rather sinister yet comical subject matter has arrived to be ranked! That of course being the infamous Council of Thirteen, the masters of the Skaven Under-Empire! Join Andy & Sotek as they delve deep into the history, strengths, and Lords of Decay ruling over each of the Clans. How will they rank up? These streams include a considerable amount of community involvement so we'll have to see what happens!

Welcome back to Lorebeards, where Andy Law & Loremaster of Sotek journey throughout the Warhammer world to educate the masses on all the wonderful and horrible things that can be discovered! Today we'll be venturing into the Eastern Steppes, north of Grand Cathay's Great Bastion. A wild windswept plain of incredible size known for being the last uncorrupted land before one reaches the Chaos Wastes. Among the tall grasses and cracked dry patches lies an entire nation of incredible size, despite having no cities or stone foundations. Instead it is an colossal tide of Giant Wolves and Hobhounds pulling settlements built upon wheeled platforms that roams around to stay ahead of Chaos hordes and strike at vulnerable targets to loot and plunder. This is the Hobgoblin Khanate, made up by the titular Hobgoblins. A strange sub-species of the Greenskins race that are infamous for their backstabbing nature and nomadic lifestyle. Without further ado let's get into it!

Join Sotek & Andy Law as they finish off the birthday/anniversary episodes of Lorebeards with the grand finale of Sigmar Heldenhammer! The legendary founder of the Empire and totally not a war criminal, Sigmar is one of the most important figures in all of Warhammer Fantasy. After all, he does wield THE Warhammer. In any event, Sigmar has a GREAT many stories about his life that we'll be exploring today. As there is so much to cover, today we'll be focusing far more on the mortal life of Sigmar and see how far we get!

After FAR too long of a hiatus due to the ravages of Grandfather Nurgle and Clan Pestilens, the Lorebeards have finally returned! For this stream we resume where we left off with the Anniversary Special, turning our attention fully on the bizarre multiversal sandbox that is the Total War Warhammer universe! There's been tons of patches, DLCs, and FLCs added to this game over the last near-decade, but if executive power were given to Andy & Sotek, what insanity might they unleash to try and craft the perfect game? Well grab your drink of choice and settle in to find out!

The time has come for Loremaster of Sotek & Andy Law to continue their celebration of a year's worth of Lorebeards after Grandfather Nurgle wreaked a bit of havoc on the schedule. After several visits to the Temples of Shallya, Andy is well enough once more to carry on the fight against the greatest foe of any Warhammer fan...the End Times! While the Lorebeards have faced off against this calamity before, this time they'll be focusing on several specific aspects rather than just the overall events. So prepare to see some angry nerds rant and rave against Lileath and the dying of the light!

LOREBEARDS IS OFFICIALLY (A little over) ONE YEAR OLD! Andy & Sotek are delighted to celebrate a full cycle around the sun of delving into Warhammer Fantasy lore. It has been an unparalleled pleasure to engage in weekly discussions about our favorite setting with you all whether it be about the myriad races and characters found across the width of the world. To celebrate this occasion, the Lorebeards have decided to dedicate an entire month of goodies for everyone to enjoy! The first part of this 4-part series shall be to....ASK US ANYTHING! A unique stream in which we'll be doing our damnedest to answer as many questions as possible in the time allotted!

At the absolute beginning of all things, they came on Silvered Ships from beyond the stars. The Old Ones, ancient cosmic beings, are the true architects of the Warhammer World. Seeing some grand purpose in this speck of dirt floating among the infinite expanse of space, these alien sorcerer-scientists began their mysterious work. From moving the planet closer to the sun, to elevating many of the races that would come to dominate the world, to crafting the immense gateways hanging in space above the world that would one day lead to Catastrophe. Join Andy & Sotek as they attempt to decipher the bizarre mixture of truth and myth surrounding the enigmatic Old Ones and their Great Plan.

For millennia, the mountain realms of the Dwarfs have been pulled slowly but surely into decline. Their once impregnable holds within the Worlds Edge Mountains were cracked open one after the other during that terrible time known as the Age of Woe. Among the mighty karaks that fell, few were felt as keenly as that of Karak Drazh. Join Andy & Sotek as they delve into the the history of the hold that came to be known as Black Crag and how it devolved into the greatest Orc Fortress in the world. From its initial claiming by the Greenskin scourge to the modern age under the iron fist of Gorfang Rotgut, this tour through the depths will be one to remember!

At the top of the world lies the hellish lands known as the Chaos Wastes, where countless warbands dedicated to the Dark Gods roam the earth to seek glory in the name of their patrons. Of these, none are more terrible than the Tormentors. A hideous legion of Slaanesh worshipping monstrosities led by the mutated majesty that is Dechala, the Denied One! Just where does this serpentine monstrosity come from? What is her story and how did she become one of the mightiest champions to serve the Dark Prince? Join Andy & Sotek as they wind back the clock to the bygone era known as the Cataclysm, to explore a tragedy unlike any other upon the isle of Ulthuan. A story of trauma, desire, and an insatiable hunger for power!

The End Times have come, the legions of Chaos are spilling out across the world to drown all in a tide of horror and magic! Or...is this actually the beginning? Hunker down with Andy & Sotek as they guide you through the nightmarish tale that is the Cataclysm, that epic conflict which ushered in the true start of the Warhammer Fantasy world as we know it! Prepare for a tale of the ultimate struggle as Gods, Heroes, and Ancient Empires strive to weather the first great Storm of Magic known simply as...the Cataclysm!
