Bricky didn't go that much into Raven Guard lore, so here's some quick points: 1. Deliverance isn't a planet. It's actually a moon orbiting the planet Kiavahr that was being used as a gulag until Corax led a rebellion and took it over. 2. The Raven Guard's stealth is fusion of lo-fi and warp shenanigans. They stuff cloth and dirt into their armor joints to quiet the servos and have the ability to just make you forget they're there. 3. The RG are the smallest legion in number at 5000. They lost 96% of their numbers when they got backstabbed at Isstvan V. Corax is the only reason they made it out. 4. They are a close second in niceness to the Salamanders. They minimize human casualties and care about normal humans. 6. They make their own moonshine and have their own unique sign language called Corspeak. 7. Corax is in the warp on a one-man revenge mission, and turned Lorgar Aurelion's tower into a Freddie Fazbear pop-up. He's now a raven-shaped warp revenge entity. We think. It's possible he may just have a Stand he's projecting into the Warp.
Fun fact: the Space Wolves name is a mistranslation on the Imperiums part, their real name is Vlka Fenryka or "Wolves of Fenris, but the Imperium cant understand fenris language so they translate alot of their words to wolf which they hate
Honestly it’s probably the closest thing the imperium has to running joke that doesn’t involve slaughtering xenos. Kinda surprised the space wolves don’t just do it back to them on purpose.
They don't even really call themselves Wolves of Fenris, either. The closest thing to a title the wolves use for themselves is "The Rout", because that's what happens to their enemies.
But do not forget, there are no Wolves on Fenris. They were never brought there, and they are not native to the planet. Do with that knowledge, and the knowledge of the Canis Helix genetically modified into the original settlers, what you will.
The Alpha Legion once made an entire planet rain snakes at one point. They spiked the air with drugs and made all the psykers in the planet dream the same dream, which was snakes raining from the sky. That became real and nearly the entire population of the planet died from snakebites.
"Superacid Rain?" No. "Daemonic Incursion?" No. "Communist Revolution?" We did that last week. "Aerosolized LSD?" Heh. Yeah, sure; that'll be fun. Watch them all trip balls and tear themselves apart. "Even better; they got a bunch of psykers. Bet I can tinker with the mix and direct the whole mass hallucination. You know how psykers get if you can make enough of 'em think the same thing together." What've you got in mind? "Figure we might as well put our signature on it. _'With warmest regards, Alpharius'"_
Some clarification on the Blood Angels The Red Thirst (them wanting to drink blood) affects them all, but for the most part they have this under control, sometimes through questionable means The Black Rage CAN happen to any of them at any time, but it isn't based off anything like time they've served, it's random. As their current chapter master has been alive for over 1500 years and he hasn't fell to it. Also when they fall to the Black Rage, they don't see themselves at their Primarch's death....they see themselves as their Primarch When they fall to the Black Rage they think they are Sanguinius in his final moments fighting against Horus
And canonically, at least one of them came out of the other side of the Black Rage. Except afterward he was... different. Not even as human as normal Astartes are.
@@WillRobinson Two have come out the other side of the Black Rage: Mephiston, like I'm assuming who you're referring to, and Lemartes- though for him it's a bit different. Lemartes is still "afflicted" by the Black Rage but his insane willpower has allowed himself to remain aware and in control of himself. He's essentially become the defacto leader of the Death Company and can actually rally them into legitimate strategy and tactics. Taking the raging blob of berserkers and making them an effective fighting force.
You have to understand, warhammer 40k fans are like a nomadic horde we wander the youtubez in search for new people to add to our horde, so whenever someone new falls down the rabbit hole we gather to begin the indoctrination process.
21:24 Wow... Comparing Rogal Dorn to Homelander. Rogal Dorn is one of the most honest and legit people in all of the Adeptus Astartes. He is so true and pure in his convictions that he is virtually uncorruptible. He would take one look at someone like Homelander and fold him into a brick that he would use to build one of his fortresses.
The reason why he didn't talk about the legions 2 and 11 is because they are considered "purged and forgotten" by the Imperium. In the beginning, GW intentionally didn't not design them, so the W40K players could create their own personal legions 2 and 11, with their own custom background (loyal or traitor). Since so much time has passed, it is now official canon that the information about those legions (and their Primarchs) was wiped out of existence to be never mentioned again. That's why when Bricky gets to those legions, the screen plays white static and he talks about going out and touching grass.
Actually, Rick Priestly said in an interview that he never intended for legions 2 and 11 to be stand-ins for people that want to create their own. The idea of the two lost legions long predates the Horus Heresy being a game. He says he had those to create a mystery and some depth to the lore of the legions. Essentially to keep people asking why they are missing.
@@toomaskotkas4467 It's from an interview conducted by members of r/40klore. Google "My extended interview with Rick Priestley" and you will find the full interview.
@@ChaoticTabris That sounds stupid. If that is true it's just nonsense mystery baiting with no substence. The stand-in for fans explanation is an actually good move from GW
Kentaro Miura, the author of Berserk, was obviously a huge nerd having fingers in many different pies, all the way from warhammer and european medieval history to Hellraiser and goddamn Idol Master. He shoved absolutely everything he loved inside of Berserk
The 2nd and 11th Legions (someone might have commented this already) are legions that nobody knows what they were, who they were, what they did, whatever, their names have been wiped from the history books and their brother legions dare not even speak of them, I've heard it explained as a way for GW to allow players to easily homebrew their own legions
my personal guess is that the 2nd and 11th was originally planned to become servants of malal/malice but - due to the copyright issue of malal - that shit fell through. It would kind of make sense IMO due to the fact that malal/malice's holy number is 11 and 2 looks in roman numerals like 11.
@@WeAINTseenITREACTIONSwhile it wasn’t a legion a fan made an animation called “Astartes” and he featured his own home brew space marine chapter called “The Retributors” and he ended up getting hired by GW and his homebrew chapter was made canon
It's not even that the Legions can't speak of the 2nd and 11th, no one remembers because Malcador did mind wipes for all the loyalists. During the Heresy Dorn came across stuff for the 2nd and 11th and that's when Malcador showed up to tell him to let it go before revealing that both he and Guilliman asked to have their memories wiped of 2nd and 11th and to allow their legions to be folded into their own. Hence why the Ultramarines were the biggest legion during that time.
To me Warhammer is actually 3 hobbies in one. To some people they love the painting and building of the models. To others they love to play the game and make list to play against other people in tournament settings or at their local FLGS/club. And to others another part of the hobby is the Lore side, where people just read and consume the history of the universe. There is a vast amount of books out there to help fill holes that may pop up IMHO you cant go wrong enjoying either part of the 40k hobby. I myself enjoy all parts of the universe. For me it has become my #1 IP surpassing Lord of the Rings and Star Wars.
Oh yeah I totally second this thing about Fulgrim being Griffith because its pretty much stated verbatim in lore that his best friend was Ferrus Mannus and he killed him in order to attain more power. I hate to say it but Ferrus Mannus doesn't have much to him other than looking a lot like guts. Although more adamant iron hands fans might disagree so who knows.
I wouldn’t completely disagree with that statement on ferrus. To me he is the perfect foil to fulgrim. Where fulgrim was constantly chasing after perfections and letting insecurities rule him, ferrus accepted the fact that there will always be a bigger fish than him. He never had the diplomatic skills like guilliman nor the charisma of Horus or sanguinius but that was okay. They weren’t his strong suit, but he has other strengths that he could work to improve. I will say though ferrus’ story is really half baked. Which is really unfortunate because he and his legion could be a catalyst for some incredible story telling, and considering how GW worked with the lion’s return. I really hope we can expand on Ferrus’ story. Thank you for reading my TED talk
Also to clear something just to make sure. Space marine candidates, are typically children between 10-16. The way they are selected and age range depends on the chapter or legion they are being picked by. These are not guardsmen, or something related. Typically selection process involves children from local planet(recruitment world) that have competitions with other children where sometimes its fights to the deaths.(not always). Obviously this is oversimplified, but I'm sure you get it.
On the point of angron not stopping the world eaters from implanting the butchers nails into their brains: the recent angron-the red angel book elaborated on that where it was revealed that he had such a deepseated hatred for his sons and despised them so much that he let them do it despite knowing what it would do to them. Have them suffer as he suffers. Angron is such a piece of crap in lore, but a tragic one for he was supposed to be one of the most honorable of the primarchs but got messed up by the butchers nails. They drove him mad. Same goes for his legion. the original world eaters where strong and most often honorable men turned ragefilled murdermachines. I love their lore and they play really nice on the tabletop
I put my blame on the emperor he was aware that his sons are doing weird stuff to his space marine legions and didn't do anything about it like the iron warriors decimation come on man
Loved your reaction and thoughts. My personal favorite legion is the Alpha Legion simply because they are both goofy and scary at the same time. The common meme is that the Alpha Legion is secretly still loyal to the emperor and playing the long con against chaos. Dunno how true that is, but in the books there are so many conflicting plot points it helps perpetuate the meme. One of the most recent and interesting examples of this is when a squad of Alpha Legion marines steal an important imperial artifact. They get caught mid-escape by one of the Emperor's saints, and right before the saint is about to kill them she pauses and gets some kind of telepathic message (presumably from the Emperor) and suddenly lets them go. It will probably never be revealed in canon whether they are still secretly loyal, but all the goofy and creepy shit they get into is why they are my favorite.
iirc, during the Heresy, while Alpharius and Omegon had not picked sides, they were approached by a cabal of xenos psykers, who brought them visions of the two futures they were on the brink of choosing. In one, Alpharius Omegon stays loyal, and the Emperor would defeat Horus, but be mortally wounded and kept alive for ten thousand years, before Chaos would return and ultimately destroy humanity. In the other, Alpharius Omegon sides with Horus, and the traitor legions and the Ruinous Powers of chaos would wipe the galaxy clean of human life in a century, in an orgy of violence so unimaginable that it would burn out the powers of Chaos themselves. The Alpha Legion supposedly took Horus's side. Mankind did not burn out in a depraved Chaos omnicide on a galactic level. Don't forget, Alpharius Omegon is one person, in two bodies. I am Alpharius. This is a lie.
@@MegaGullas oh i know all about their time during the heresy. The example i gave was an excerpt from the current 40k timeline. Wish that both were still alive, but i guess thats why you have 2 lol
43:34 well he was smiling until his brother corvus strolled up to his porch, and kicked his ass so thoroughly to the point where lorgar is hiding in his house with the door locked while Raven boy waits at the front door with his arms folded
A lot of the reason people love the Night Lords (me and Bricky included) is because of the Night Lords book trilogy. It's some of the best 40k books out there IMO nad worth the read if you're at all interested.
So wrt Space Marine recruitment, it can be quite variable, but the only parts that are pretty universal are: 1) You take a geneseed (which grow from "progenium glands" inside existing Space Marines, and get harvested either on maturity or when the Marine dies, using a fucking surgical saw on the battlefield) and you use it to grow a new set of Marine bio-implants (20 completely new organs). 2) You take a suitable candidate - ideally a very healthy, strong male in or close to adolescence, since the new organs hijack the biological transformation that young men go through. 3) You implant the organs in the candidate (the sequence and method varies massively - the Blood Angels, for example, perform a complete blood replacement in the process and put the neophytes in crystal caskets to complete the process). 4) The partially-transformed neophyte is put through psycho-conditioning and extensive, relentless training until the Chapter's methods and beliefs are totally imprinted in their minds. 5) The neophyte is usually put in a Scout squad and sent out to do sniping/scouting duties until the first bunch of implants mature. 6) Once the neophyte's implants have matured and they have proven themselves on the battlefield, the last implant is added. This is the Black Carapace, which fuses to their nervous system, allowing them to control a full suit of Astartes power armour. After that, they join a Marine squad (often a Devastator or Assault squad) as a full Battle Brother. The process takes a few years at most. So most new Astartes are pretty close to 7ft child soldiers, particularly Scout Astartes. Chaos legions do even less training and some of them will basically shove the implants into kidnapped children, then leave them to adapt to the changes, and if they survive, they survive.
I'm not sure if you have been made aware, but one of the best (imo) Warhammer 40k series to watch is If the Emperor had a text to speech device. Unfortunately it ended on a cliffhanger but it's definitely worth a watch!
This came out when I was about 14 around 1985, so many things came from this. Some of my fondest memories was playing 40k in the back room of the game shop in the bottom level of our mall, free refills all day at the burger king and a slice of enzo's pizza along with all the new warhammer minis and gaming in the shop.
First Bricky vid, mentions Berserk - instant like. ** Mentions Gangrel theme. . . Why did i not find this channel sooner? Second bricky vid - hears feedback on first vid, adjusts inyour own way - instant respect. 100% earned thus sub. Also if you want a real in depth of the 40k legions and primarchs would reccomend Adeptius Ridiculous. He and bricky talk about them in a real in depth way (podcast length convos so enjoy on your own time if you like)
About the similarities between Chaos and the God Hand, I think it's probably a question of similar influences. Both the original Warhammer Fantasy setting (from 1983) and 40k (from 1987) drew a lot of inspiration from popular fantasy and sci-fi of the time. The concept of Chaos originates from Michael Moorcock's work which was also a big influence on Miura. I suspect that both were drawing inspiration from this kind of Sword & Sorcery, Weird Fantasy and Sci-fi material (The line become very blured in some of those works), even if Warhammer does include a ton more High Fantasy elements than Berserk afaik.
Fun fact: idk how retconned this actually is, but there's a Chaos Warband named the 'Hawk's Band', which basically is one big ass Berserk reference. The more you read into their lore and their Chaos Space Marines members, the more "too on the nose" the references get 🗿
Fun fact: the world eaters and the death guard are the chaos gods khorne and nurgle making do. Originally, both had their eyes on other legions, that being the blood angels for khorne, and the iron warriors for nurgle. Both were soundly rejected, a member of the blood angels enduring unimaginable pain to change the fate of his legion and perterabo personally killing the warp-touched messanger nurgle sent to him, for daring to suggest he was weak enough to need the help of chaos.
Angron's true genetic trait is empathy. Unfortunately the slavers of Nuceria sabotaged Angron's original goal..The Emperor has just put the final nail on the coffin
You should watch the iron warriors video from Warrior Tier, the best way to understand the Iron Warriors. I mean the World Eater and Iron Warriors had the best reasons the betray the Emperor. A note about the iron warriors is the fact that they dont like the Chaos Gods, they dont even consider them to be gods.
the thing i like about bricky's run downs is that yeah not everything he says is accurate but its close enough for new people to understand and get interested and thats the whole point. We arent all lore nerds who know every single pattern of space marine armor by a glance so if theres an inaccuracy or two thats just something for people to go and learn later when they dive deeper into the hobby because something caught their interest and I think thats a pretty cool thing for Bricky to have accomplished.
It started around the same time as Berserk, late 80's/early 90's. Knowing Games Workshop's shameless plagiarism (once read a Guard novel that was literally just Dune) l wouldnt put it past them, but at the same time it could just be coincidentally similar ideas following the grimdark aesthetic.
@@WeAINTseenITREACTIONS It would have been Berserk being inspired from 40K, first issue of Berserk was published in 1989 while the first rulebook for the full game of 40K was published in '87.
So, the Dark Angels. The Emperor didn't send them when he wanted to make a public point (that's the Space Wolves), conquer and/or uplift (the Ultramarines), terrorise (Night Lords) or even take a 'no prisoners' approach (hello World Eaters). If the Dark Angels were specifically tasked to a foe, it was because that foe needed to disappear. *Completely*. Survivors gone, settlements razed and concreted over, page torn out of the history book, all references deleted and never spoken of again, the works. When the bit of the Legion tasked with guarding Caliban and recruiting new Dark Angels decided that immediately after the Horus Heresy - you know, right as the Imperium was picking up the pieces and developing VERY STRONG OPINIONS INVOLVING ORBITAL BOMBARDMENTS on the subject of treason, rebellion, etc - was a good moment to secede from the Imperium, you can guess how the loyal chunk of the Legion reacted. The fact that they found out when Caliban's defences opened fire on the incoming fleet may possibly have sped this decision along. You can also guess how the Chapter's upper echelons have continued to react when survivors from said whoopsie (the Fallen) kept popping up more or less at random around the galaxy. And how they may have reacted when, say, Inquisitors start sniffing around such incidents. Or the coverup of such incidents. Or the coverup of the coverup of the...you get the picture. The irony is that it's been hinted in a few sources that the Emperor and a few high level Inquisitors do know about the Fallen...and they don't care.
The thing with the night lords, most of what he said they used to do, was when they were still loyalist. They didnt really change much when they turned traitor
You are right 40k lifts a lot of things from other popular ips. I know a lot of people scream plagiarism and really, it's kind of skirting that line a lot. And I do mean a lot. But then you run into the problem with stuff like, well, everything based off Token. Depends on how much that bothers you. Get these weird circles though where you got Gears of War and Star Craft ripping off 40K which is ripping off Aliens. Or 40k rips off Battletech which just straight up bought Macross designs. Kind of a weird chain that forms that I find funny.
I kind miss the old noise marines. Chaos space marines painted up like 80s glam rockers with leopard and zebra print armor, with colored mohawks and spiked heels on their armor, and of course, bolter guitars.
The Emperor was BAD father, like truly bad, he disrespected his sons and seen them nothing but the instruments of creating future he wanted. Perturabo, Magnus, Angron, they all had reasons to betray, not falling to chaos, but just betray and revolt. All because of how Emperor treated them.
The Alpha legion are the most expensive space marines to buy. They have not been technically updated since 1989 and new models are online purchases only. It is much easier to find the old models unopened than the more recent ones. The cheapest are the ultra marines ironically.
It’s crazy to think that despite how old the tabletop is, they’re still making new content for it and not just trying to change up or add stuff to the old armies Like the recently newly added faction, The Leagues of Votann, which are essentially a redo of Squats. Squats being a race of abhumans that are essentially space Dwarves that were a small part of the Imperium. GW wiped out the Squats and made the Leagues of Votann to have a full blown space dwarf faction
Also when it comes to Space Marine legions? I’m not a Space Marine main, but my favorite legion and the one I played when I was younger and still had the miniatures, is Blood Angels
I used to play the now long dead 40k game called Eternal Crusade and there was a clan in it that had the requirement of renaming your character to Alpharius so in a clan match you would see their team as Alpharius!, Alpharius!?, Alphariusagain, ImAlpharius, AlsoAlpharius etc XD
if you like the salamanders I'm sure you'd like the lamenters they are a sub chapter of the blood angels and are also total bros the civilian populace almost to a fault, love those unlucky bastards.
Explaining the confusing bits for 2nd and 11th Legions: We know nothing about these 2 legions. Lore wise, their stories were completely removed from the archives of the Imperium by either Malcador or the Emperor himself. The other Primarchs were made to swear an oath to never mention these 2 legions, not even the 2 Primarch names, under threat of suffering the same faith as those 2 legions. As for the regular humans who knew of these 2.....well... the lucky ones were mind wiped, the other ones didn't live long enough to realize they were dead.
You were wondering about what's with Lorgar looks, and there is actually an interesting fact about that part of the wh community denies: Lorgar by lore is considered to look the closest to the Emperor himself, they are both actually arabs. Maybe Lorgar has started to worship him as a god and build "Jerusalem" for him out of narcissism The Emperor appears for different people as they want to see him, but in actually he is arabic apparently
Welcome to the Salamanders, my brother. Take up a thunder hammer and flamer, for there are civilians in danger. On the honor of the Forgefather, we shall not let our people down.
Oh you should definitely check out “if the emperor had text to speech”. Maybe not ideal for a reaction due to its serialized format but it’s damn funny. The episodes on “Paradox-Billiards-Vostroyan-Roulette-Fourth-Dimensional-Hypercube-Chess-Strip Poker” where they make fun of yugioh should be good for a reaction. The basic premis is the emperor gets a text to speech device allowing him to finally tell everyone how stupid they’ve been for the last 10,000 years and now he has to try and clean up the galaxy
He got the World Eaters completely wrong. The butchers nails cause them insane pain but they only have respite in battle or violence, not anger, the butchers nails have nothing to do with anger, they are angry all the time because they are in pain all the time but they only feel peace in violence or battle.
The Alpha Legion is, IMHO, the best and most badass faction in 40k. Their most incredible feats include: - Spending centuries indoctrinating recruits from a Space Marine fortress world. Once the time is right, the Alpha Legion activates the indoctrination protocols, and the Chapter fractures into a myriad of sub factions. In the chaos that ensues, the Alpha Legion swoops in and ransacks the chapter's stocks of armaments and gene-seed. - Saturating a planet called Seer's Rest with psychoactive gas, causing the psykers of the world to experience the same nightmare: an apocalyptic rain of venomous serpents. The dreams are so vivid that the gestalt of psyker energy manifests the rain of snakes into actual reality, and half of the population of Seer's Rest dies within a day. The Alpha Legion descends on the planet and abducts thousands of comatose psykers. - Through a combination of hidden agents and psychic hypnosis, Sorcerers from the Alpha Legion convince the Administratum (ie the Imperium equivalent of the Federal government) that the maps they have of the Avernia system are wrong. When the Alpha Legion attacks the system, psychic distress calls are launched and the Imperium diverts a formidable fleet from the rich world of Negligence to the false coordinates of Avernia, which ends up stranded in the wrong Segmentum. Both Avernia and Negligence fall to the Alpha Legion in less than a year. - Fooling the High Lords of Terra into sending a cadre of six Vindicare Assassins to eliminate an Alpha Legion warlord claiming to be Alpharius, the original Legion's primarch. The Assassins give chase for five years, and after that, their heads are found in the frozen food storage rooms of the High Lords of Terra. - Fooling the Inquisition into declaring them exterminated. Three times. And to top it all off, WE DON'T KNOW WHETHER THEY ARE TRAITORS, RENEGADES, OR CLOSET LOYALISTS!
I can see how you might think that. A space Marine is an Absolute work of Love for the imperium. Perfect warriors, Heroes, Anti-heroes, Rebels, Invaders, and so much more. Under no circumstances should they be ignored for they are Super human killing machines of good or evil
The drink-can ammo is inaccurate, because the calibers of bolter ammunition have been given. They range between .50 cal to .998 cal. There probably is a gun that fires monster-can ammo, but those aren't man-portable, or even Astartes-portable.
While 40K and Berserk do have many similarities, I don't think either was necessarily inspired by the other but rather they both took inspiration from the same sources as each other. In particular Jungian psychology, Hellraiser, and old sci-fi media.
The second and eleventh were wiped from history by the emperor and malcador, how or why we don't exactly know. We do get hints throughout the lore. But besides that it's open to heavy debate.
I would rank my favorite legions as follows: 1) World Eaters 2) Death Guard 3) Imperial Fists 4) Blood Angels 5) Thousand Sons 6) Salamanders 7) Iron Warriors 8) Dark Angels 9) Ultramarines 10) Space Wolves 11) Black Legion 12) Night Lords 13) Emperor's Children 14) Alpha Legion 15) White Scars 16) Word Bearers 17) Raven Guard 18) Iron Hands

Slaanesh was not in Warhanner fantasy role play, I think that She who thirsts first appeared in the second of the realms of chaos books and that was late 1980's to early 90's,
The Iron Warriors humiliated and almost destroid entirely the Imperial First if Guilman and Ultra Marines did save them when the Imperial First invaded the Iron Warriors at the Iron Cage to the Imperial Fist is good only in Defense.
Samurai Jack up there in the corner looks like a cartoon penguin. Not at all relevant to the subject material, but I figured I'd share so everybody else can can't unsee it with me.
Miura, admitted to heavy hellraiser influence, and while you'll never find anything official from games workshop, some of original writers have had some offhanded comments(sp) about Hellraiser.
Salamanders are the best. My 2 armies, chaos marines, and Salamanders. Salamanders are the biggest badasses while also being the kindest and most respectable. Not to mention Vulcan being the biggest boss.
Glad the Beicjy videos are doing well for you. Honestly I have to work myself up to watch a reaction because EVERYONE reacts to him. I've seen his warhammer videos just too many times. I think a good video by a different person I would recommend warhammer timeline explained in 20 minutes by Arbiter Ian
Ok - this might not be something that bothers most people, but I keep getting distracted by Spiderman blinking..... EDIT: Also, can we scare him with Daemonculaba yet? *laughs*
right there with you, thought i was tripping balls! No offense dude, but your boy is going to be talking about beserk throughout the vid too much, to get scared by demonculaba. He would have to actually hear the narration. Would be an underwhelming reaction vid.
By the way, as this vid is kinda outdated, the Lion is already back, on tabletop, older and wiser, and a little bit less of a dick than he was in the Horus Heresy.
Warhammer 40k started in the 80s. It's been going for 35 years. And no one has told you about the Votann who are space dwarfs. It's all lord of the rings in space when it first started.
Regardless of the current state of GW / 40k etc. Warhammer 40k is the most fascinating and enjoyable universes from a lore standpoint I think we've gotten in modernia. It is all terrible and it is all awesome simultaneously.
It’s not just these people didn’t have fathers, *they had **horrible** fathers*. The Emperor himself is a prick; creating the peimarchs to be his lieutenants, have them call him father, then provide no guidance for them as people, only seeing them as means to an end. They were to be replacements for the Thunder Warriors, modified humans that were designed to go insane after a set amount of time. The emperor slaughtered them after conquering earth because they weren’t suited for conquering the galaxy. The traitor primarchs knew in part that they were expendable, so they turned traitor. Roboute saw the writing on the wall and focused on logistics, knowing that they had to be able to function outside of war

Bricky didn't go that much into Raven Guard lore, so here's some quick points:
1. Deliverance isn't a planet. It's actually a moon orbiting the planet Kiavahr that was being used as a gulag until Corax led a rebellion and took it over.
2. The Raven Guard's stealth is fusion of lo-fi and warp shenanigans. They stuff cloth and dirt into their armor joints to quiet the servos and have the ability to just make you forget they're there.
3. The RG are the smallest legion in number at 5000. They lost 96% of their numbers when they got backstabbed at Isstvan V. Corax is the only reason they made it out.
4. They are a close second in niceness to the Salamanders. They minimize human casualties and care about normal humans.
6. They make their own moonshine and have their own unique sign language called Corspeak.
7. Corax is in the warp on a one-man revenge mission, and turned Lorgar Aurelion's tower into a Freddie Fazbear pop-up. He's now a raven-shaped warp revenge entity. We think. It's possible he may just have a Stand he's projecting into the Warp.
Fun fact: the Space Wolves name is a mistranslation on the Imperiums part, their real name is Vlka Fenryka or "Wolves of Fenris, but the Imperium cant understand fenris language so they translate alot of their words to wolf which they hate
Honestly it’s probably the closest thing the imperium has to running joke that doesn’t involve slaughtering xenos. Kinda surprised the space wolves don’t just do it back to them on purpose.
They don't even really call themselves Wolves of Fenris, either.
The closest thing to a title the wolves use for themselves is "The Rout", because that's what happens to their enemies.
For Fenris, For Russ, For The Allfather! 🐺
@@brothersgt.grauwolff6716Ok pal now get away from my dog
But do not forget, there are no Wolves on Fenris.
They were never brought there, and they are not native to the planet.
Do with that knowledge, and the knowledge of the Canis Helix genetically modified into the original settlers, what you will.
The Alpha Legion once made an entire planet rain snakes at one point.
They spiked the air with drugs and made all the psykers in the planet dream the same dream, which was snakes raining from the sky. That became real and nearly the entire population of the planet died from snakebites.

Some clarification on the Blood Angels
The Red Thirst (them wanting to drink blood) affects them all, but for the most part they have this under control, sometimes through questionable means
The Black Rage CAN happen to any of them at any time, but it isn't based off anything like time they've served, it's random. As their current chapter master has been alive for over 1500 years and he hasn't fell to it.
Also when they fall to the Black Rage, they don't see themselves at their Primarch's death....they see themselves as their Primarch
When they fall to the Black Rage they think they are Sanguinius in his final moments fighting against Horus
And canonically, at least one of them came out of the other side of the Black Rage. Except afterward he was... different. Not even as human as normal Astartes are.
@@WillRobinson That would be Mephiston and i'm fairly certain he's done it twice now. Who's to say when the 3rd time will be.
@@WillRobinson Two have come out the other side of the Black Rage: Mephiston, like I'm assuming who you're referring to, and Lemartes- though for him it's a bit different. Lemartes is still "afflicted" by the Black Rage but his insane willpower has allowed himself to remain aware and in control of himself. He's essentially become the defacto leader of the Death Company and can actually rally them into legitimate strategy and tactics. Taking the raging blob of berserkers and making them an effective fighting force.
You have to understand, warhammer 40k fans are like a nomadic horde we wander the youtubez in search for new people to add to our horde, so whenever someone new falls down the rabbit hole we gather to begin the indoctrination process.
True as fuck hahaha
So true
21:24 Wow... Comparing Rogal Dorn to Homelander. Rogal Dorn is one of the most honest and legit people in all of the Adeptus Astartes. He is so true and pure in his convictions that he is virtually uncorruptible. He would take one look at someone like Homelander and fold him into a brick that he would use to build one of his fortresses.
Honestly Rogal is one of the MVPs of the Horus heresy and is hardly even comparable to homelander. Now leman Russ on the other hand is another story
You sound genuinely angry about it lol
pretty sure he just saw a blond white guy and said that.
But that is some nice writing and PASSION.
He only ment from the looks.
@@theskullboy8700 Leman is a fool, but not an arse.
The reason why he didn't talk about the legions 2 and 11 is because they are considered "purged and forgotten" by the Imperium. In the beginning, GW intentionally didn't not design them, so the W40K players could create their own personal legions 2 and 11, with their own custom background (loyal or traitor). Since so much time has passed, it is now official canon that the information about those legions (and their Primarchs) was wiped out of existence to be never mentioned again. That's why when Bricky gets to those legions, the screen plays white static and he talks about going out and touching grass.
Actually, Rick Priestly said in an interview that he never intended for legions 2 and 11 to be stand-ins for people that want to create their own. The idea of the two lost legions long predates the Horus Heresy being a game. He says he had those to create a mystery and some depth to the lore of the legions. Essentially to keep people asking why they are missing.
@@ChaoticTabris I call BS unless you can provide the link to the video.

@@ChaoticTabris That sounds stupid. If that is true it's just nonsense mystery baiting with no substence. The stand-in for fans explanation is an actually good move from GW
Kentaro Miura, the author of Berserk, was obviously a huge nerd having fingers in many different pies, all the way from warhammer and european medieval history to Hellraiser and goddamn Idol Master. He shoved absolutely everything he loved inside of Berserk
The 2nd and 11th Legions (someone might have commented this already) are legions that nobody knows what they were, who they were, what they did, whatever, their names have been wiped from the history books and their brother legions dare not even speak of them, I've heard it explained as a way for GW to allow players to easily homebrew their own legions
That would be cool if someone made up their own legion that could become canon.
my personal guess is that the 2nd and 11th was originally planned to become servants of malal/malice but - due to the copyright issue of malal - that shit fell through. It would kind of make sense IMO due to the fact that malal/malice's holy number is 11 and 2 looks in roman numerals like 11.
@@WeAINTseenITREACTIONSwhile it wasn’t a legion a fan made an animation called “Astartes” and he featured his own home brew space marine chapter called “The Retributors” and he ended up getting hired by GW and his homebrew chapter was made canon
It's not even that the Legions can't speak of the 2nd and 11th, no one remembers because Malcador did mind wipes for all the loyalists. During the Heresy Dorn came across stuff for the 2nd and 11th and that's when Malcador showed up to tell him to let it go before revealing that both he and Guilliman asked to have their memories wiped of 2nd and 11th and to allow their legions to be folded into their own. Hence why the Ultramarines were the biggest legion during that time.
To me Warhammer is actually 3 hobbies in one. To some people they love the painting and building of the models. To others they love to play the game and make list to play against other people in tournament settings or at their local FLGS/club. And to others another part of the hobby is the Lore side, where people just read and consume the history of the universe. There is a vast amount of books out there to help fill holes that may pop up IMHO you cant go wrong enjoying either part of the 40k hobby. I myself enjoy all parts of the universe. For me it has become my #1 IP surpassing Lord of the Rings and Star Wars.
Oh yeah I totally second this thing about Fulgrim being Griffith because its pretty much stated verbatim in lore that his best friend was Ferrus Mannus and he killed him in order to attain more power. I hate to say it but Ferrus Mannus doesn't have much to him other than looking a lot like guts. Although more adamant iron hands fans might disagree so who knows.
I wouldn’t completely disagree with that statement on ferrus. To me he is the perfect foil to fulgrim. Where fulgrim was constantly chasing after perfections and letting insecurities rule him, ferrus accepted the fact that there will always be a bigger fish than him. He never had the diplomatic skills like guilliman nor the charisma of Horus or sanguinius but that was okay. They weren’t his strong suit, but he has other strengths that he could work to improve.
I will say though ferrus’ story is really half baked. Which is really unfortunate because he and his legion could be a catalyst for some incredible story telling, and considering how GW worked with the lion’s return. I really hope we can expand on Ferrus’ story.
Thank you for reading my TED talk
Also to clear something just to make sure. Space marine candidates, are typically children between 10-16. The way they are selected and age range depends on the chapter or legion they are being picked by. These are not guardsmen, or something related. Typically selection process involves children from local planet(recruitment world) that have competitions with other children where sometimes its fights to the deaths.(not always). Obviously this is oversimplified, but I'm sure you get it.
On the point of angron not stopping the world eaters from implanting the butchers nails into their brains: the recent angron-the red angel book elaborated on that where it was revealed that he had such a deepseated hatred for his sons and despised them so much that he let them do it despite knowing what it would do to them. Have them suffer as he suffers.
Angron is such a piece of crap in lore, but a tragic one for he was supposed to be one of the most honorable of the primarchs but got messed up by the butchers nails. They drove him mad.
Same goes for his legion. the original world eaters where strong and most often honorable men turned ragefilled murdermachines.
I love their lore and they play really nice on the tabletop
I put my blame on the emperor he was aware that his sons are doing weird stuff to his space marine legions and didn't do anything about it like the iron warriors decimation come on man
@@ChadTalosbig did a lot of dumb crap. Monarchia, nikia, Angron, the entirety of dealing with chaos. He really fucked up
Fulgrim definitely is the 40k's version of Griffith
Loved your reaction and thoughts. My personal favorite legion is the Alpha Legion simply because they are both goofy and scary at the same time. The common meme is that the Alpha Legion is secretly still loyal to the emperor and playing the long con against chaos. Dunno how true that is, but in the books there are so many conflicting plot points it helps perpetuate the meme.
One of the most recent and interesting examples of this is when a squad of Alpha Legion marines steal an important imperial artifact. They get caught mid-escape by one of the Emperor's saints, and right before the saint is about to kill them she pauses and gets some kind of telepathic message (presumably from the Emperor) and suddenly lets them go. It will probably never be revealed in canon whether they are still secretly loyal, but all the goofy and creepy shit they get into is why they are my favorite.
They’re the most interesting legion for me too - and have the prettiest colour scheme also 🥰
@@HistoritorJimaldus I love the serpent designs and the scales on them.
iirc, during the Heresy, while Alpharius and Omegon had not picked sides, they were approached by a cabal of xenos psykers, who brought them visions of the two futures they were on the brink of choosing.
In one, Alpharius Omegon stays loyal, and the Emperor would defeat Horus, but be mortally wounded and kept alive for ten thousand years, before Chaos would return and ultimately destroy humanity.
In the other, Alpharius Omegon sides with Horus, and the traitor legions and the Ruinous Powers of chaos would wipe the galaxy clean of human life in a century, in an orgy of violence so unimaginable that it would burn out the powers of Chaos themselves.
The Alpha Legion supposedly took Horus's side. Mankind did not burn out in a depraved Chaos omnicide on a galactic level.
Don't forget, Alpharius Omegon is one person, in two bodies.
I am Alpharius. This is a lie.
@@MegaGullas oh i know all about their time during the heresy. The example i gave was an excerpt from the current 40k timeline. Wish that both were still alive, but i guess thats why you have 2 lol

A lot of the reason people love the Night Lords (me and Bricky included) is because of the Night Lords book trilogy. It's some of the best 40k books out there IMO nad worth the read if you're at all interested.
There's a video game called Boltgun, it's like an old doom style 40k game where you play as an ultramarine
If you ever start thinking about getting into WH40K tabletop miniatures, remember one thing - they call it "plastic crack" for a reason.
Warhammer 401k for sure
So wrt Space Marine recruitment, it can be quite variable, but the only parts that are pretty universal are:
1) You take a geneseed (which grow from "progenium glands" inside existing Space Marines, and get harvested either on maturity or when the Marine dies, using a fucking surgical saw on the battlefield) and you use it to grow a new set of Marine bio-implants (20 completely new organs).
2) You take a suitable candidate - ideally a very healthy, strong male in or close to adolescence, since the new organs hijack the biological transformation that young men go through.
3) You implant the organs in the candidate (the sequence and method varies massively - the Blood Angels, for example, perform a complete blood replacement in the process and put the neophytes in crystal caskets to complete the process).
4) The partially-transformed neophyte is put through psycho-conditioning and extensive, relentless training until the Chapter's methods and beliefs are totally imprinted in their minds.
5) The neophyte is usually put in a Scout squad and sent out to do sniping/scouting duties until the first bunch of implants mature.
6) Once the neophyte's implants have matured and they have proven themselves on the battlefield, the last implant is added. This is the Black Carapace, which fuses to their nervous system, allowing them to control a full suit of Astartes power armour. After that, they join a Marine squad (often a Devastator or Assault squad) as a full Battle Brother.
The process takes a few years at most. So most new Astartes are pretty close to 7ft child soldiers, particularly Scout Astartes. Chaos legions do even less training and some of them will basically shove the implants into kidnapped children, then leave them to adapt to the changes, and if they survive, they survive.
I'm not sure if you have been made aware, but one of the best (imo) Warhammer 40k series to watch is If the Emperor had a text to speech device. Unfortunately it ended on a cliffhanger but it's definitely worth a watch!
This came out when I was about 14 around 1985, so many things came from this. Some of my fondest memories was playing 40k in the back room of the game shop in the bottom level of our mall, free refills all day at the burger king and a slice of enzo's pizza along with all the new warhammer minis and gaming in the shop.
First Bricky vid, mentions Berserk - instant like.
** Mentions Gangrel theme. . . Why did i not find this channel sooner?
Second bricky vid - hears feedback on first vid, adjusts inyour own way - instant respect. 100% earned thus sub.
Also if you want a real in depth of the 40k legions and primarchs would reccomend Adeptius Ridiculous. He and bricky talk about them in a real in depth way (podcast length convos so enjoy on your own time if you like)
About the similarities between Chaos and the God Hand, I think it's probably a question of similar influences. Both the original Warhammer Fantasy setting (from 1983) and 40k (from 1987) drew a lot of inspiration from popular fantasy and sci-fi of the time. The concept of Chaos originates from Michael Moorcock's work which was also a big influence on Miura. I suspect that both were drawing inspiration from this kind of Sword & Sorcery, Weird Fantasy and Sci-fi material (The line become very blured in some of those works), even if Warhammer does include a ton more High Fantasy elements than Berserk afaik.
Fun fact: idk how retconned this actually is, but there's a Chaos Warband named the 'Hawk's Band', which basically is one big ass Berserk reference. The more you read into their lore and their Chaos Space Marines members, the more "too on the nose" the references get 🗿
Fun fact: the world eaters and the death guard are the chaos gods khorne and nurgle making do.
Originally, both had their eyes on other legions, that being the blood angels for khorne, and the iron warriors for nurgle.
Both were soundly rejected, a member of the blood angels enduring unimaginable pain to change the fate of his legion and perterabo personally killing the warp-touched messanger nurgle sent to him, for daring to suggest he was weak enough to need the help of chaos.
Every space marine can get the memories of what he eat, not just the Space Wolfs.
Man, you really should check out "Iron Within, Iron Without" by Warrior Tier. Trust me, you will like it
Angron's true genetic trait is empathy. Unfortunately the slavers of Nuceria sabotaged Angron's original goal..The Emperor has just put the final nail on the coffin
You should watch the iron warriors video from Warrior Tier, the best way to understand the Iron Warriors. I mean the World Eater and Iron Warriors had the best reasons the betray the Emperor.
A note about the iron warriors is the fact that they dont like the Chaos Gods, they dont even consider them to be gods.
the thing i like about bricky's run downs is that yeah not everything he says is accurate but its close enough for new people to understand and get interested and thats the whole point. We arent all lore nerds who know every single pattern of space marine armor by a glance so if theres an inaccuracy or two thats just something for people to go and learn later when they dive deeper into the hobby because something caught their interest and I think thats a pretty cool thing for Bricky to have accomplished.
It started around the same time as Berserk, late 80's/early 90's. Knowing Games Workshop's shameless plagiarism (once read a Guard novel that was literally just Dune) l wouldnt put it past them, but at the same time it could just be coincidentally similar ideas following the grimdark aesthetic.
Yeah its probably just a coincidence. They probably both borrowed from something.
@@WeAINTseenITREACTIONS It would have been Berserk being inspired from 40K, first issue of Berserk was published in 1989 while the first rulebook for the full game of 40K was published in '87.
So, the Dark Angels. The Emperor didn't send them when he wanted to make a public point (that's the Space Wolves), conquer and/or uplift (the Ultramarines), terrorise (Night Lords) or even take a 'no prisoners' approach (hello World Eaters). If the Dark Angels were specifically tasked to a foe, it was because that foe needed to disappear. *Completely*. Survivors gone, settlements razed and concreted over, page torn out of the history book, all references deleted and never spoken of again, the works.
When the bit of the Legion tasked with guarding Caliban and recruiting new Dark Angels decided that immediately after the Horus Heresy - you know, right as the Imperium was picking up the pieces and developing VERY STRONG OPINIONS INVOLVING ORBITAL BOMBARDMENTS on the subject of treason, rebellion, etc - was a good moment to secede from the Imperium, you can guess how the loyal chunk of the Legion reacted. The fact that they found out when Caliban's defences opened fire on the incoming fleet may possibly have sped this decision along.
You can also guess how the Chapter's upper echelons have continued to react when survivors from said whoopsie (the Fallen) kept popping up more or less at random around the galaxy. And how they may have reacted when, say, Inquisitors start sniffing around such incidents. Or the coverup of such incidents. Or the coverup of the coverup of the...you get the picture. The irony is that it's been hinted in a few sources that the Emperor and a few high level Inquisitors do know about the Fallen...and they don't care.
And nor, it turns out, does the Lion himself. Hence his Risen bodyguard.
Raven Guard's job is Alpha Legion's certification.
Hydra Dominatus!
The thing with the night lords, most of what he said they used to do, was when they were still loyalist. They didnt really change much when they turned traitor
Please don't apologize for speaking over the video, this is a reaction video, its what is supposed to happen :)
😑....ugh...
You are right 40k lifts a lot of things from other popular ips. I know a lot of people scream plagiarism and really, it's kind of skirting that line a lot. And I do mean a lot. But then you run into the problem with stuff like, well, everything based off Token. Depends on how much that bothers you. Get these weird circles though where you got Gears of War and Star Craft ripping off 40K which is ripping off Aliens. Or 40k rips off Battletech which just straight up bought Macross designs. Kind of a weird chain that forms that I find funny.
I kind miss the old noise marines. Chaos space marines painted up like 80s glam rockers with leopard and zebra print armor, with colored mohawks and spiked heels on their armor, and of course, bolter guitars.
2 Legions are lost, that's why he "skipped" them. There were 20 Primarchs, but only 18 have ever been found
The Emperor was BAD father, like truly bad, he disrespected his sons and seen them nothing but the instruments of creating future he wanted.
Perturabo, Magnus, Angron, they all had reasons to betray, not falling to chaos, but just betray and revolt.
All because of how Emperor treated them.
The Alpha legion are the most expensive space marines to buy. They have not been technically updated since 1989 and new models are online purchases only. It is much easier to find the old models unopened than the more recent ones.
The cheapest are the ultra marines ironically.
The spider man blinking in the bacl ground tripped me pit for a sec
It’s crazy to think that despite how old the tabletop is, they’re still making new content for it and not just trying to change up or add stuff to the old armies
Like the recently newly added faction, The Leagues of Votann, which are essentially a redo of Squats. Squats being a race of abhumans that are essentially space Dwarves that were a small part of the Imperium. GW wiped out the Squats and made the Leagues of Votann to have a full blown space dwarf faction
Also when it comes to Space Marine legions? I’m not a Space Marine main, but my favorite legion and the one I played when I was younger and still had the miniatures, is Blood Angels
I used to play the now long dead 40k game called Eternal Crusade and there was a clan in it that had the requirement of renaming your character to Alpharius so in a clan match you would see their team as Alpharius!, Alpharius!?, Alphariusagain, ImAlpharius, AlsoAlpharius etc XD
came for the reaction, but i stayed for the lupin III neon lol
Warhammer steals from everything and cranks it to eleven. Or twelve... Lovecraft, Nordic and Greek myth, Moorcock, Dune, Star Wars, you name it!
if you like the salamanders I'm sure you'd like the lamenters they are a sub chapter of the blood angels and are also total bros the civilian populace almost to a fault, love those unlucky bastards.
10:22 Accurate as F*CK
Explaining the confusing bits for 2nd and 11th Legions:
We know nothing about these 2 legions. Lore wise, their stories were completely removed from the archives of the Imperium by either Malcador or the Emperor himself. The other Primarchs were made to swear an oath to never mention these 2 legions, not even the 2 Primarch names, under threat of suffering the same faith as those 2 legions. As for the regular humans who knew of these 2.....well... the lucky ones were mind wiped, the other ones didn't live long enough to realize they were dead.
You were wondering about what's with Lorgar looks, and there is actually an interesting fact about that part of the wh community denies:
Lorgar by lore is considered to look the closest to the Emperor himself, they are both actually arabs.
Maybe Lorgar has started to worship him as a god and build "Jerusalem" for him out of narcissism
The Emperor appears for different people as they want to see him, but in actually he is arabic apparently
Welcome to the Salamanders, my brother. Take up a thunder hammer and flamer, for there are civilians in danger. On the honor of the Forgefather, we shall not let our people down.
Angron was one of the kindest primarch before the truly lost the battle against the butcher's nail. He could have been one of the best primarch
For an interesting side-discussion, I highly recommend Dr. Chris Raynor's videos on how to make a Space Marine from a realistic medical viewpoint.
Funny enough WH 40k came out 1987 while Berserk came out 2 years later in 1989.....so you may be right that one inspired the other.
clearly beserk went back in time and influenced 40k.🤣
Nah, the Ultramarines aren't the Marie Claire TV dinners they're the Hungry Man TV dinners because they're blue and generic.
Oh you should definitely check out “if the emperor had text to speech”. Maybe not ideal for a reaction due to its serialized format but it’s damn funny. The episodes on “Paradox-Billiards-Vostroyan-Roulette-Fourth-Dimensional-Hypercube-Chess-Strip Poker” where they make fun of yugioh should be good for a reaction. The basic premis is the emperor gets a text to speech device allowing him to finally tell everyone how stupid they’ve been for the last 10,000 years and now he has to try and clean up the galaxy
He got the World Eaters completely wrong. The butchers nails cause them insane pain but they only have respite in battle or violence, not anger, the butchers nails have nothing to do with anger, they are angry all the time because they are in pain all the time but they only feel peace in violence or battle.
Space Deebo's??? Yeah I'm subbing off that one bruh. 😂😂😂😂😂. Rolling up on planets outside the imperium like "What you got on my compliance, fool?"
The Alpha Legion is, IMHO, the best and most badass faction in 40k. Their most incredible feats include:
- Spending centuries indoctrinating recruits from a Space Marine fortress world. Once the time is right, the Alpha Legion activates the indoctrination protocols, and the Chapter fractures into a myriad of sub factions. In the chaos that ensues, the Alpha Legion swoops in and ransacks the chapter's stocks of armaments and gene-seed.
- Saturating a planet called Seer's Rest with psychoactive gas, causing the psykers of the world to experience the same nightmare: an apocalyptic rain of venomous serpents. The dreams are so vivid that the gestalt of psyker energy manifests the rain of snakes into actual reality, and half of the population of Seer's Rest dies within a day. The Alpha Legion descends on the planet and abducts thousands of comatose psykers.
- Through a combination of hidden agents and psychic hypnosis, Sorcerers from the Alpha Legion convince the Administratum (ie the Imperium equivalent of the Federal government) that the maps they have of the Avernia system are wrong. When the Alpha Legion attacks the system, psychic distress calls are launched and the Imperium diverts a formidable fleet from the rich world of Negligence to the false coordinates of Avernia, which ends up stranded in the wrong Segmentum. Both Avernia and Negligence fall to the Alpha Legion in less than a year.
- Fooling the High Lords of Terra into sending a cadre of six Vindicare Assassins to eliminate an Alpha Legion warlord claiming to be Alpharius, the original Legion's primarch. The Assassins give chase for five years, and after that, their heads are found in the frozen food storage rooms of the High Lords of Terra.
- Fooling the Inquisition into declaring them exterminated. Three times.
And to top it all off, WE DON'T KNOW WHETHER THEY ARE TRAITORS, RENEGADES, OR CLOSET LOYALISTS!
Since it wasnt mentioned, Salamanders are also the best at basketball.
I can see how you might think that. A space Marine is an Absolute work of Love for the imperium. Perfect warriors, Heroes, Anti-heroes, Rebels, Invaders, and so much more. Under no circumstances should they be ignored for they are Super human killing machines of good or evil
The drink-can ammo is inaccurate, because the calibers of bolter ammunition have been given. They range between .50 cal to .998 cal.
There probably is a gun that fires monster-can ammo, but those aren't man-portable, or even Astartes-portable.
Nobody going to talk about the spiderman toy fucking blinking in the back?
Yeah he has a tendancy to stare into the viewer's souls lol
ahhahah, yeah last video I thought I was tripping
While 40K and Berserk do have many similarities, I don't think either was necessarily inspired by the other but rather they both took inspiration from the same sources as each other. In particular Jungian psychology, Hellraiser, and old sci-fi media.
The second and eleventh were wiped from history by the emperor and malcador, how or why we don't exactly know. We do get hints throughout the lore. But besides that it's open to heavy debate.
I would rank my favorite legions as follows:
1) World Eaters
2) Death Guard
3) Imperial Fists
4) Blood Angels
5) Thousand Sons
6) Salamanders
7) Iron Warriors
8) Dark Angels
9) Ultramarines
10) Space Wolves
11) Black Legion
12) Night Lords
13) Emperor's Children
14) Alpha Legion
15) White Scars
16) Word Bearers
17) Raven Guard
18) Iron Hands
Fun fact there is an alien race in 40k called the slaan
I was was bebopping through 40k stuff and the first time I saw this vid is on this one with girl gamers and this girl on the vid had been told to wear a white wig and it turned out she was the one on the shaker cup watching it not knowing he was going to put that out. so she's the target and it was pretty funny.

Slaanesh was not in Warhanner fantasy role play, I think that She who thirsts first appeared in the second of the realms of chaos books and that was late 1980's to early 90's,
The Iron Warriors humiliated and almost destroid entirely the Imperial First if Guilman and Ultra Marines did save them when the Imperial First invaded the Iron Warriors at the Iron Cage to the Imperial Fist is good only in Defense.

Miura, admitted to heavy hellraiser influence, and while you'll never find anything official from games workshop, some of original writers have had some offhanded comments(sp) about Hellraiser.
@@hyenascar GW is many things but Subtle isn’t one of them
Salamanders are the best. My 2 armies, chaos marines, and Salamanders. Salamanders are the biggest badasses while also being the kindest and most respectable. Not to mention Vulcan being the biggest boss.
For Fenris, For Russ, For The Allfather! 🐺
Bolter rounds are 75 cal with is about 3/4 inch
Glad the Beicjy videos are doing well for you. Honestly I have to work myself up to watch a reaction because EVERYONE reacts to him. I've seen his warhammer videos just too many times.
I think a good video by a different person I would recommend warhammer timeline explained in 20 minutes by Arbiter Ian
Ok - this might not be something that bothers most people, but I keep getting distracted by Spiderman blinking.....
EDIT:
Also, can we scare him with Daemonculaba yet? *laughs*
right there with you, thought i was tripping balls! No offense dude, but your boy is going to be talking about beserk throughout the vid too much, to get scared by demonculaba. He would have to actually hear the narration. Would be an underwhelming reaction vid.
@@danielhogan6255 I know, it's just... Kind of a rite of passage in 40k lore now, and it was the possessed Thomas comment that made me think of it!
By the way, as this vid is kinda outdated, the Lion is already back, on tabletop, older and wiser, and a little bit less of a dick than he was in the Horus Heresy.
Warhammer 40k started in the 80s. It's been going for 35 years. And no one has told you about the Votann who are space dwarfs. It's all lord of the rings in space when it first started.
We dont speak of the 2nd and 11th legions...
IRON WITHIN, IRON WITHOUT!
no one is ever completely correct when it comes to warhammer lol
you should look into the 21st legion or the cursed legion of the damned, i think they are pretty dope
Regardless of the current state of GW / 40k etc. Warhammer 40k is the most fascinating and enjoyable universes from a lore standpoint I think we've gotten in modernia. It is all terrible and it is all awesome simultaneously.
If you havent you should give the game "40k: Darktide" a go, its like a left 4 dead style coop fps.
Slaan vs Slaanesh? Who came
First? Who can say? Possibly slaanesh?
Probably slaanesh just not in terms of writing
Fulgrim is def a buff Griffith 😂
This is a fun channel
It’s not just these people didn’t have fathers, *they had **horrible** fathers*. The Emperor himself is a prick; creating the peimarchs to be his lieutenants, have them call him father, then provide no guidance for them as people, only seeing them as means to an end.
They were to be replacements for the Thunder Warriors, modified humans that were designed to go insane after a set amount of time. The emperor slaughtered them after conquering earth because they weren’t suited for conquering the galaxy.
The traitor primarchs knew in part that they were expendable, so they turned traitor.
Roboute saw the writing on the wall and focused on logistics, knowing that they had to be able to function outside of war
i hope you at some point play the first 'space marine' game... it's a great game.
First Legion, best Legion
