It's worth pointing out in the video (14:26 minutes) that Arch specifically highlights the actions of one Games Workshop employee abusing copyright to attack him for trademark violation. And amateurishly so, given that said employee's antics have put GW in an awkward position to put it lightly.
As Arch further explains in the comments:
I really didn't want to make a video about this at all since it essentially amounts to a personal attack on me personally rather then a matter for the channel. But considering how far out of the normal realms of operation this situation is and the fact that the GW employ has made no attempts to communicate, for reasons as to which we can only speculate, i felt the need to inform every one. The reason why GW docent strike people making Knockoffs and props for sale is because the risk is not worth the rewards, in this case they have maximised the risk by stating that the usage of Warhammer quote "on a channel where monetised videos are being hosted" constitutes a word mark violation. I can only speculate that this wide net was cast either through incompetence or hoping, sadly correctly, that i would not want to involve so many people in what appears to amount to a personal attack.
Haven't watched much of Arch's content, but this sounds like it is more on the You Tube side of things rather than the actual GW side of things. Someone at GW is trying to copyright strike his channel under the guise of GW company policy. In reality, this is a complaint against this channel for other reasons outside of copyrights. His arguments are solid in regards to IP protection. If this is upheld, what is stopping someone from copyright striking Bell of Lost Souls or 1d4 chan for their content. If GW wins, we could see a lot of fan sights disappear and content sharing be stifled online.
