- I've added timeline timestamps - As we are well into 2020 the Space Marines seem something I should put off no longer, despite still having some other races and factional elements I need to cover in the wider galaxy of 40K it seems the right time to begin the process of covering the Space Marine’s. While it is tempting for me to go all in on a weighty singularly comprehensive video that covers every possible detail of a legion/chapter, from experience this would become an all consuming sprawling multi-hour video that would likely take me months to create - I want these instead to be consumable and not hinder production of other material each month. I was all ready to leap straight into the first Legion… but then I realised in order to properly begin this series, it must establish how this all began. So this is a deliberately condensed version which I think hits the key elements from the beginning to the Primaris - so that I can continue on from there. Lastly I’ll say that as per usual anything or anyone I’ll omit related to a legion’s history or events will be by choice, to either save time, or pin til later.
@Luetin09, would you happen to have any thoughts on why some of the Primarchs developed strong psychic abilities while others did not, despite all being sons of the Emperor?

@@RecklessFables Honestly, playing 8th against old marines, tacticals and devastators can still put out a lot of shots. Scouts are still great at forcing someone to pay attention to a point (or gathering victory points if they don't go for them). Only having one wound, and armor saves not being as relevant makes them a bit squishier than in 7th and before. That said, this is just my experience fielding sisters or admech against them in a pickup store match (Oh I miss those...) and I don't consider myself anywhere close to a tournament level player.
I tapped out. Fantasy and 40k both started changing hectically. It's a FUCK TON of money i invested over 15 years in both, not to mention time. 40k is now moving a different direction. My sets are boxed and done and dusted. Tapping out of this madness hahaha
As much as I'm not a Dornian fan-boy, I felt summing him up as having the "mastery of building walls" was a mega understatement. I'd argue that he was gifted with the mastery of stubborness and defiance. As a master builder, including earthworks and fortifications if he chose to dig his heels in on a world (Iron Cage) very little could get him to feck off again. It was his stubbornness and defiance that led to the Imperial Palace being fortified so it wouldn't fall. It was his stubbornness and defiance that led him to attack a Chaos Warship and get his paws chopped off (because lets face it, he not dead).
He’s also a master of not giving a shit about peoples egos and self beliefs; Rogal Dorn Don’t Give A Fuck and he’s gonna tell you straight what he thinks no matter how it hurts
Pretty much proved correct, in the final Siege of Terra books his mastery of stubbornness becomes even more apparent. Definitely seems more like a distinct ability than a mere personality trait
"What's that guy's deal?" "He's an angel." "Wow! How about that dude?" "He's a werewolf." "Woah! What do you do?" "I'm space Genghis Khan. But I've got a sweet mustache."
Just go about your life, if your an American we have a constitution, if your European... good luck God bless and pray the buercratic administration leaves you be.
57:02 "And some things that should not have been forgotten were lost. History became legend. Legend became myth. And for two and a half thousand years, the ring passed out of all knowledge." Love that 'Lord of the Rings' reference.
The Emperor being able to alter people's perception and memory of him seems correct, I found this in the novel Dark Imperium. The emperor had no need to hide his size from Guilliman so its likely a passive ability that he can't completely turn off.. either that or Guy Haley is going for something else here or perhaps no one in GW has thought about this issue Guilliman smoothly drew his father’s sword. Mathieu gasped. He had seen the Sword of the Emperor drawn on several occasions. Every time, he bore witness to a miracle. On leaving the scabbard, the blade burst into flame. Guilliman did not begrudge the priest his awe. There was great warpcraft in the weapon. When the blade was removed from the Emperor’s withered knee and presented to Guilliman by the Captain-General of the Adeptus Custodes, it had somehow fit his primarch’s stature. Guilliman frowned. He tried to remember how tall the Emperor was, but His living image refused to be caught and examined. In some memories, He was as tall as Guilliman; in others, no bigger than a mortal man.
In 1 of the books of the Horus Heresy the Emperor specifically says he changes how he appears to people as his true face would kill the vast majority of people, even Primarchs, so ye he very definitely changes how people perceive him.
@@Barnesofthenorth Heh, funny how that mirrors Christian (Catholic at least) lore that the Abrahamic god would have the same effect on mortal men if they tried viewing him as he is. See also Raiders of the Lost Ark.
I've never delved deep enough, mostly just watching these vids, but has anyone entertained the idea that the emperor could have been an actual chaos God? And that he got stuck in real space long ago, and that maybe if he were to be unplugged from the golden throne his spirit could return to the warp and back to his original God status?
@@mikewillis9537 Back in parts of old 40k lore, it was theorized that the Emperor of Mankind's crusade against religion unintentionally helped to create a minor chaos god that is all about order and atheism
You consistently post the highest quality videos I’ve ever seen on UA-cam. Every single video is of the highest quality. Well done yet again. This is amazing, and just what I needed in this stressful time. Thank you Luetin. You’re the best!
It's genuinely incredible, right? I mean, there are many amazing 40k lore channels, but Luetin09 is arguably the best. You have people like Oculus Imperia, Baldermort, and 40k Theories, but Luetin does "epic" better than everyone.
If you like luetin's objective but personal take that is thorough and complete, I highly recommend my favourite UA-cam channel LikeStoriesOfOld. He does the best film essays on UA-cam, hands down.
I just love the irony behind the creation of the Primaris. Cawl is someone that's looked down on by the astartes and yet it's because of him that the Primaris came into being and he manage to achieve a successful conversion for one of the most decorated chapter masters. The Omnissiah works in mysterious, yet logical ways.
The storytelling and editing are continuously getting better and better in this channel, this video was amazing in both respects thank you so much for your work!
51:54 My heart skipped a beat when I saw my own artwork featured in your video. Glad to see you putting it to such good use even if only a small part :)
Since COVID-19, I have made a (small) part of my income by selling painted models on eBay. It hasn't made me rich, but it has bought me a couple trips of groceries. I couldn't have done it without listening to your vids while painting, Lutein. Thank you so much.
Just as “The Council of Nikea” would come to be known as “The Trial of Magnus”, it seems that this “History of the Astartes” is more “A Condemnation of The Emperor’s Methods”. Needless to say, I think the Inquisition would have a word or two to say about this..
Albeit i´m far from a lore expert, it seems to me that the "super" soldiers of the Astartes should be the Grey Knights and the DeathWatch. Demonic scum and Xenos filth stand no chance when they are upon the battlefield. But now.... Papa Smurf and his band of merry Smurfs. /Shrug
Iirc correctly the Grey Knights and the Deathwatch still outrank and outpower the Primaris marines, as do the Adeptus Custodes. The Primaris aren't all-powerful. They're stronger than your average Space Marine, but they aren't as tactically flexible and they have less experience in the battlefield (at least lorewise).
"This required to use all of his(The emperor) subtetly, his tack and fineness. His solution? To immediately unleash 3 proto space marine legions on Luna to bring it under imperial compliance.
Considering how cuntish the Lunar gene cults where and what horrors they did that would make any dark eldar proud. Them getting a direkt visit by a shock assault of 3 legions was a rather tame answer
Good stuff, though I do feel Primaris have a bit of an uncomfortable real world aspect. Games Workshop wanted to expand their Space Marines range and existing lore limited that, hence the story you just told of the Primaris development. Having them just be better tramples over the idea of a Space Marine candidate proving themselves then working through scout/devastator/assault/tactical to become a well rounded flexible warrior. I think it'd been more interesting for the Primaris surgery to be something that was available to a Space Marine in a window of a few hundred years after their existing organs had fully matured (after they had worked through the disciplines) and serves as a specialisation rather than a straight upgrade. Instead of 3 extra organs have a range of potential changes that force them into a few roles, losing the flexibility they previously had for more specific power. Those Space Marines too old or that decline the Surgery go on to be the Veterans we know now, their experience used to lead younger squads or deploying as veteran assault/tactical/devastator squads or using terminator armour.
Astartes chirurgical process : traumatic. Primaris chirurgical process : more traumatic. Random astartes : Can I only have a third heart and a second liver?
Hey man I just wanted to take a moment to say it's thanks to you that I finally got into 40k. My buddy threw on your lore videos and now I'm $600 deep into a Mechanicus army and it's all thanks to you that I have an idea of this extensive world and..... just thank you man. Whatever you're up to today, stand a little taller knowing you make positive changes for strangers you'll likely never meet but left a lasting impact nonetheless
I always found it funny that many within the 40k fandom had much the same reaction to Primaris Marines that the normal Astarties had. Fear, Disgust, Confusion, Distrust, and Anger.
@@Xenith230 In the eyes of the firstborns? Probably because an entire new breed of space marine hid away in labs for ten millennia just appeared randomly. This same new breed was made by a distrusted figure of the Mechanicus who “tampered” with the emperor’s work. Also the fact that none of these Primaris understood the firstborn cultures or knew anything about them. Also the fact that the Primaris could make the firstborns obsolete.

1:19:50 I left YT on as I slept and when I awoke this morning, I was greeted with one of the most bad ass slide shows ever, excellent way to begin the day.
(I've been rereading the heresy books while in self-iso) The speculation that the Emperor made a deal with Chaos to create the Primarchs is pure speculation based on the words of a servant of Chaos known for deception. Anyone who'd give any credence to Erebus and other Warp-things is just twice damned in my opinion lol. He could've gained the power and knowledge from the warp any number of ways. Theoretically he could've even gained the knowledge from his future self. The warp makes anything possible. There's also the Black Library of course.
If you trust that text so much, make note that Emperor saw Horus as he stood in the chamber with gestation pods. He saw him and tried to warn, centuries before. So he knew that Heresy would happen long before. So the whole thing was left to execute as is, without Emperor trying to predict or change the outcome. He had all the tools at his disposal - science, imperial truth. Instead of denying the existence of chaos for the fear of corruption, he could same way approach it scientifically and classify as a physical phenomena of extreme danger. He could made his sons aware and prepared for the dangers of ruinous powers, he could instruct them how to combat chaos and the Imperium would be prepared from the very beginning. Problem is that Erebus was right, as he showed the future, it is truly what came to be. Does that mean the rest of what he showed Horus was true?
@@pointcache pointcache So what you're saying is that-because of the events in the gestation chamber, The Emperor was fully aware of Horus' betrayal and did nothing to change the outcome? Between keeping Horus close and the Council of Nikaea, I'd say he at least tried. The problem is that he couldn't tell anyone about Chaos and I can see why: The Warp is where thoughts become reality and it had been corrupted by countless xenos species before humanity became psychically active. The only way to combat the forces of Chaos was to keep humanity innocent in ignorance while exterminating all cultures and religions with knowledge (or ideas) of such things as demons; especially every xenos species whose thoughts couldn't be controlled (we're talking about a galaxy where "wrong think" can literally destroy the universe). As for whether or not Erebus can be trusted.. well.. every great lie has a tinge of truth. What he showed Horus was a future that came to be because of his betrayal, not despite of it. It was all a lie, despite being the truth.
Taking any one in-universe source as completely accurate truth is crazy. This is 40k we're talking about. What is known is heavily dogmatized, scrutinized, altered to favor some side or person, completely fabricated, or any other method of alteration or subterfuge has been applied. No-one and nothing can be trusted to be truthful, let alone accurate.
@@SecondSince "Everything is canon, but not everything is true." IIRC that's how the authors(?) see it. 40k is one of those franchises that encourages people to believe whatever they want, have their own headcanon, even make up their own fanfic.
You're one of the best lore youtubers out there, and as far as I am concerned the one with the best voice. A soothing, calm yet perfectly articulated voice talks about the grim dark future where there is only war, carnage and the laughter of the dark gods? Sign me up.
17:20 - the Emperor used his own genes as the template for genetic surgeries and therapies that transform normal human men into Ubermensch giants. Seems reasonable that he might have used these techniques on himself prior to using them on others. We also know that his reincarnation / birth "changed his DNA", so perhaps the ability to change himself physically was one of the traits he possessed, with or without genetic manipulation.
Instant like Luetin you are amazing and honestly one of the reasons why I love 40k without ever having touched a miniature (I know heresy in it's purest form) keep up the amazing work!
I love when you throw in those humorous references, right in the middle of something serious- “...and for two and a half thousand years, the ring...”- I choked on my pizza! And I was just about to start typing how I liked the “old film footage vertical lines” going back and forth across a supposedly historical video. This was a fantastic addition to your library of awesome content. Thanks- and I hope that you and your loved ones are safe and healthy.
Excellent stuff as always. Once filed on volatile storage mediums, lost, found, redacted, and lost once more, I am sure the imperial citizens of the future will benefit from your work.
@Hakageryuu "Historically Racist" Lel dont mention near every country evers history, US history of Racism isnt even anyones history except the US's and its very little. A country that takes anyone from anywhere having one of the simplest and open borders throughout history points towards the opposite. Dont even @ me
I dont even play warhammer, save some of the video games. However the story is just so engrossing that I look forward to hearing the lore whenever I can, thanks!
I don't remember where I read it, but basically, the Sisters of Silence see him as a normal man, and Corax also saw through the Emperor's shroud and saw that he was just about the most average dude you could imagine, in almost all aspects, including height. (I forgot which book though, but it might've been Deliverance Lost.) So, more realistically, it's more so that pre-Empire he used no shroud at all and only used a shroud during the Empire.
I do feel that the emperor intended to dispose of the astartes and primarchs when the crusade was done. He never cared if they were broken along the way, so long as the task was done, for there would be no need for them to survive beyond. Afterall the primarchs, like it or not, were primarily warriors and not suited for ruling an imperium at peace. We did see him pull power away from the primarchs when the end of the crusade was in sight. Also, it's possible the emperor was a regular sized person. We do see him increase in size when he fought, as well as some people like le priest and corax seeing a regular sized man while weaker minds saw a golden figure.
K Estrado what about the apartments in the palace that were primarch size? I can kinda understand the legions maybe but not his sons. He loved a good amount of them and yes saw some as tools. But it’s been shown that he had plans for his sons past the crusade
Their gifts reminds me of Demolition Man with John Spartan getting the gift of needle work while Simon Phoenix was gifted with hacking and killing skills.
For some reason this video made me a Crawl fan because he is the last "true" scientists that the emperor himself supported and I love his picture at 1:02:38 this makes me realize why he is an awesome character as he both a mechanic, engineer, and a biologist and a scientists!
Another top-quality video, I love the way that you explain everything concisely and build another layer of context and understanding of the greater Imperium with every video. You have single-handedly gotten me interested in WH:40k lore, and I even bought a few books, one of which is Cadia Stands, which I am currently reading. Great work as always, and I hope you keep it coming for a long time.
Love your channel. I was never interested in the 40k universe until the Astartes short videos came out and your videos are definitely covering the lore in a way thats very amusing, easy to consume and informative.
It can be summed up as thus: the Primarchs were the ultimate the Emperor could make, one step above the Custodes. Then came the Astartes, the legions to retake humanity's birthright. And when 9 lords and their legions fell, Gulliman ordered Cawl to create an improved version of Astartes for humanity's darkest hour. Let's be honest: the Astartes Firstborn were holding it back well and if things continued as they were, the Primaris would never have been woken. Them being woken is a sign of desperation for the Imperium. And for Games Workshop, because seriously, the stagnation of the plot had to be resolved SOMEHOW. You all begged for it and you got your wish: the plot has moved on. So quit your bitching already.
Primaris are just boring, it's just a different name. There's nothing unique about them, nothing interesting. They could have replaced the ultramarines or something, dunno. As it is, they're just not fun.
I really enjoy your series, I have been into Warhammer 40k for about only two years now and listening to this while at work has really benefited me making me the second most knowledgeable on the lore in my group of friends.
Well... Corvus Corax can render himself effectively invisible to all living organisms... So, I wouldn't exactly say he got off all that bad with that one... seems pretty damn powerful, if ya ask me...
People always ask: how the fucks does a near 12ft tall gene handed human wearing hundreds of pounds of armour, be stealthy? That’s that latent Emperor brand Witchery.
I stand by this statement "there is no loremaster of the 40k universe that equals Luetin09" I enjoy Wolf Lord Rho, but Luetin just takes it up a notch. I enjoy yours stuff just listening to you talk about what we all love so much. I pray Games Workshop takes you into consideration on planning where the Universe should go. Just a great mind for this stuff. Its almost like you are an author in the wings, if not an author someone who could plan how events would correlate to the 40k universe. Awesome job.
Surely Calgar was already at primaris level of strength and is now above a regular. And to be fair he was already missing half his body from the tyranid wounds he suffered
@@Kristian.B.Kristiansen some did. Conversation of thunder warriors who survived the purge to live on as pit fighters acknowledged this themselves. They knew their flaws, they knew their instability as a whole. These fighters bodies and minds were failing as they got older. They were powerful weapons imperfectly formed. Some had no ill will toward the Emperor as they saw all this and agreed. Not all of them did, of course as it's personal perspective.
I always thought one of the factors for becoming a space marine was compatibility with the gene seed and each lineage is unique to the point only those from Fenris can reliably become Space Wolves but I do not recall any other gene seed stock being so specific. However, with that in mind, I always thought the singular gene seed lineage made compatibility a less complicated matter compared to there being multiple gene seed stocks that would need to be sorted and categorized in a setting where planets can be forgotten and even Chapters can forget their own lineage like a Blood Angel's successor not knowing they were sons of Sanginius until the Red Thirst became problematic.
It strikes me as likely that it was all in line with the Emperors will, even the Horus Heresy. If there are two things necessary for humanity to stand united and perhaps more importantly, stay LIMITED then it would be faith and war. I think the Emperor new that with the past example of the eldars ultimate failure and demise at their own hands, and the seemingly inevitable future demise of humanity at the hands of chaos, the only possible solution was, essentially, endless war. The state of constant struggle stimulates growth, removing the fear of becoming stagnant, yet against struggling against the warp, an undefeatable enemy means humanity can never achieve true victory. This restricts them and thus eliminates them eventually reaching a stage of decadence as the Eldar did. A perfect balance between endless growth and endless death. Neither stagnant nor excessive cancer-like growth. I think that was the Emperor's plan.
His plan was literally the opposite but ok. He wanted peace for humanity after they conquered the galaxy, and he wanted to eradicate chaos more than anything.
Primarch #1: What gift did you get? Primarch #2: I'm immortal. What about you? Primarch #1: Uh, well, I can make a pretty mean sandwich. Primarch #2: Oh, well that could be handy.
I really like Dorn's protocol. It's just a huge potential source of conflict among the astartes. Very interesting. Also loved that you used the Rubicon metaphor. That's really fitting.

Ive been watching you for the good part of a few months now. I have to say Im so thankful for this channel and your existence Luetin. Ive always had mental health issues, and sleeping is no easy task. More often than not I find myself staring into apparitions created by my mind or trying to silence the other people in my head.

Of course its still no small task but I just want to let you know how much easier youve made it. I have more energy during the day and Im happier, and I also get to learn about the insane 40k lore since Im also a lore junky. I know im just some random small person in a following of hundreds upon thousands, but if you ever find this comment I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart.

To which I ask, when does the price become too great?
I dropped out ten years ago. If I can play my old models in 9th without getting stomped by the new ones, I might come back.
I just picked up a squad of Hell Blasters! Been 25 years since I built anything! It's like riding a bike, just without Slotta Bases! LoL
@@RecklessFables Honestly, playing 8th against old marines, tacticals and devastators can still put out a lot of shots. Scouts are still great at forcing someone to pay attention to a point (or gathering victory points if they don't go for them). Only having one wound, and armor saves not being as relevant makes them a bit squishier than in 7th and before.
That said, this is just my experience fielding sisters or admech against them in a pickup store match (Oh I miss those...) and I don't consider myself anywhere close to a tournament level player.
I tapped out. Fantasy and 40k both started changing hectically. It's a FUCK TON of money i invested over 15 years in both, not to mention time. 40k is now moving a different direction. My sets are boxed and done and dusted. Tapping out of this madness hahaha
As much as I'm not a Dornian fan-boy, I felt summing him up as having the "mastery of building walls" was a mega understatement. I'd argue that he was gifted with the mastery of stubborness and defiance. As a master builder, including earthworks and fortifications if he chose to dig his heels in on a world (Iron Cage) very little could get him to feck off again. It was his stubbornness and defiance that led to the Imperial Palace being fortified so it wouldn't fall. It was his stubbornness and defiance that led him to attack a Chaos Warship and get his paws chopped off (because lets face it, he not dead).
While his brothers are an unstoppable force each, Rogal Dorne is an unmovable object.
More of a half joke than an intentional slight.
He’s also a master of not giving a shit about peoples egos and self beliefs; Rogal Dorn Don’t Give A Fuck and he’s gonna tell you straight what he thinks no matter how it hurts
I might describe stubbornness as vast reserves of willpower. Something Horus could have done with a bit more of. We wont mention Fulgrim.
Pretty much proved correct, in the final Siege of Terra books his mastery of stubbornness becomes even more apparent. Definitely seems more like a distinct ability than a mere personality trait

Love that 'Lord of the Rings' reference.
Nah, The Emperor wrote that thousands of year before AND after Tolkien.
The Emperor being able to alter people's perception and memory of him seems correct, I found this in the novel Dark Imperium. The emperor had no need to hide his size from Guilliman so its likely a passive ability that he can't completely turn off.. either that or Guy Haley is going for something else here or perhaps no one in GW has thought about this issue
Guilliman smoothly drew his father’s sword. Mathieu gasped. He had seen the Sword of the Emperor drawn on several occasions. Every time, he bore witness to a miracle. On leaving the scabbard, the blade burst into flame.
Guilliman did not begrudge the priest his awe. There was great warpcraft in the weapon. When the blade was removed from the Emperor’s withered knee and presented to Guilliman by the Captain-General of the Adeptus Custodes, it had somehow fit his primarch’s stature. Guilliman frowned. He tried to remember how tall the Emperor was, but His living image refused to be caught and examined. In some memories, He was as tall as Guilliman; in others, no bigger than a mortal man.
In 1 of the books of the Horus Heresy the Emperor specifically says he changes how he appears to people as his true face would kill the vast majority of people, even Primarchs, so ye he very definitely changes how people perceive him.
@@Barnesofthenorth Heh, funny how that mirrors Christian (Catholic at least) lore that the Abrahamic god would have the same effect on mortal men if they tried viewing him as he is. See also Raiders of the Lost Ark.
I've never delved deep enough, mostly just watching these vids, but has anyone entertained the idea that the emperor could have been an actual chaos God? And that he got stuck in real space long ago, and that maybe if he were to be unplugged from the golden throne his spirit could return to the warp and back to his original God status?

Just as “The Council of Nikea” would come to be known as “The Trial of Magnus”, it seems that this “History of the Astartes” is more “A Condemnation of The Emperor’s Methods”.
Needless to say, I think the Inquisition would have a word or two to say about this..
"What if we had super soldiers, but BETTER?"
"You mean Gray Knights? The DeathWatch?"
"NO! SUPERER!"
Albeit i´m far from a lore expert, it seems to me that the "super" soldiers of the Astartes should be the Grey Knights and the DeathWatch. Demonic scum and Xenos filth stand no chance when they are upon the battlefield. But now.... Papa Smurf and his band of merry Smurfs. /Shrug

He talks about the "Iron hands" space marine legion.
the custodes?
Iirc correctly the Grey Knights and the Deathwatch still outrank and outpower the Primaris marines, as do the Adeptus Custodes.
The Primaris aren't all-powerful. They're stronger than your average Space Marine, but they aren't as tactically flexible and they have less experience in the battlefield (at least lorewise).

@@johnathanera5863 ⁰0
Good stuff, though I do feel Primaris have a bit of an uncomfortable real world aspect. Games Workshop wanted to expand their Space Marines range and existing lore limited that, hence the story you just told of the Primaris development. Having them just be better tramples over the idea of a Space Marine candidate proving themselves then working through scout/devastator/assault/tactical to become a well rounded flexible warrior. I think it'd been more interesting for the Primaris surgery to be something that was available to a Space Marine in a window of a few hundred years after their existing organs had fully matured (after they had worked through the disciplines) and serves as a specialisation rather than a straight upgrade. Instead of 3 extra organs have a range of potential changes that force them into a few roles, losing the flexibility they previously had for more specific power. Those Space Marines too old or that decline the Surgery go on to be the Veterans we know now, their experience used to lead younger squads or deploying as veteran assault/tactical/devastator squads or using terminator armour.

1:19:50 I left YT on as I slept and when I awoke this morning, I was greeted with one of the most bad ass slide shows ever, excellent way to begin the day.
(I've been rereading the heresy books while in self-iso)
The speculation that the Emperor made a deal with Chaos to create the Primarchs is pure speculation based on the words of a servant of Chaos known for deception. Anyone who'd give any credence to Erebus and other Warp-things is just twice damned in my opinion lol. He could've gained the power and knowledge from the warp any number of ways.
Theoretically he could've even gained the knowledge from his future self. The warp makes anything possible. There's also the Black Library of course.
If you trust that text so much, make note that Emperor saw Horus as he stood in the chamber with gestation pods. He saw him and tried to warn, centuries before. So he knew that Heresy would happen long before. So the whole thing was left to execute as is, without Emperor trying to predict or change the outcome. He had all the tools at his disposal - science, imperial truth. Instead of denying the existence of chaos for the fear of corruption, he could same way approach it scientifically and classify as a physical phenomena of extreme danger. He could made his sons aware and prepared for the dangers of ruinous powers, he could instruct them how to combat chaos and the Imperium would be prepared from the very beginning.
Problem is that Erebus was right, as he showed the future, it is truly what came to be. Does that mean the rest of what he showed Horus was true?
@@pointcache pointcache So what you're saying is that-because of the events in the gestation chamber, The Emperor was fully aware of Horus' betrayal and did nothing to change the outcome? Between keeping Horus close and the Council of Nikaea, I'd say he at least tried. The problem is that he couldn't tell anyone about Chaos and I can see why: The Warp is where thoughts become reality and it had been corrupted by countless xenos species before humanity became psychically active. The only way to combat the forces of Chaos was to keep humanity innocent in ignorance while exterminating all cultures and religions with knowledge (or ideas) of such things as demons; especially every xenos species whose thoughts couldn't be controlled (we're talking about a galaxy where "wrong think" can literally destroy the universe).
As for whether or not Erebus can be trusted.. well.. every great lie has a tinge of truth. What he showed Horus was a future that came to be because of his betrayal, not despite of it. It was all a lie, despite being the truth.
Derek Drake Papa Khorn thanks humanity for indulging in needless bloodshed and war.
Taking any one in-universe source as completely accurate truth is crazy. This is 40k we're talking about. What is known is heavily dogmatized, scrutinized, altered to favor some side or person, completely fabricated, or any other method of alteration or subterfuge has been applied. No-one and nothing can be trusted to be truthful, let alone accurate.

17:20 - the Emperor used his own genes as the template for genetic surgeries and therapies that transform normal human men into Ubermensch giants. Seems reasonable that he might have used these techniques on himself prior to using them on others. We also know that his reincarnation / birth "changed his DNA", so perhaps the ability to change himself physically was one of the traits he possessed, with or without genetic manipulation.
Interesting. Actively fixing himself on a cellular level while on the Golden Throne, barely able to maintain not turning to dust.

I don't remember where I read it, but basically, the Sisters of Silence see him as a normal man, and Corax also saw through the Emperor's shroud and saw that he was just about the most average dude you could imagine, in almost all aspects, including height.

I do feel that the emperor intended to dispose of the astartes and primarchs when the crusade was done. He never cared if they were broken along the way, so long as the task was done, for there would be no need for them to survive beyond. Afterall the primarchs, like it or not, were primarily warriors and not suited for ruling an imperium at peace. We did see him pull power away from the primarchs when the end of the crusade was in sight.
Also, it's possible the emperor was a regular sized person. We do see him increase in size when he fought, as well as some people like le priest and corax seeing a regular sized man while weaker minds saw a golden figure.
K Estrado what about the apartments in the palace that were primarch size? I can kinda understand the legions maybe but not his sons. He loved a good amount of them and yes saw some as tools. But it’s been shown that he had plans for his sons past the crusade
@@killer45608 you think the primarchs are going to let their sons be mass exterminated after fighting with them for millennia?....

No gonna lie but you need to be on Spotify !!! 🙌🙌
It can be summed up as thus: the Primarchs were the ultimate the Emperor could make, one step above the Custodes.
Then came the Astartes, the legions to retake humanity's birthright.
And when 9 lords and their legions fell, Gulliman ordered Cawl to create an improved version of Astartes for humanity's darkest hour.
Let's be honest: the Astartes Firstborn were holding it back well and if things continued as they were, the Primaris would never have been woken. Them being woken is a sign of desperation for the Imperium.
And for Games Workshop, because seriously, the stagnation of the plot had to be resolved SOMEHOW. You all begged for it and you got your wish: the plot has moved on. So quit your bitching already.

I always thought one of the factors for becoming a space marine was compatibility with the gene seed and each lineage is unique to the point only those from Fenris can reliably become Space Wolves but I do not recall any other gene seed stock being so specific.
However, with that in mind, I always thought the singular gene seed lineage made compatibility a less complicated matter compared to there being multiple gene seed stocks that would need to be sorted and categorized in a setting where planets can be forgotten and even Chapters can forget their own lineage like a Blood Angel's successor not knowing they were sons of Sanginius until the Red Thirst became problematic.

I think the Emperor new that with the past example of the eldars ultimate failure and demise at their own hands, and the seemingly inevitable future demise of humanity at the hands of chaos, the only possible solution was, essentially, endless war. The state of constant struggle stimulates growth, removing the fear of becoming stagnant, yet against struggling against the warp, an undefeatable enemy means humanity can never achieve true victory. This restricts them and thus eliminates them eventually reaching a stage of decadence as the Eldar did.
A perfect balance between endless growth and endless death. Neither stagnant nor excessive cancer-like growth.
I think that was the Emperor's plan.
His plan was literally the opposite but ok.
He wanted peace for humanity after they conquered the galaxy, and he wanted to eradicate chaos more than anything.
Indulging in a war of attrition with chaos is never a good idea .
Primarch #1: What gift did you get?
Primarch #2: I'm immortal. What about you?
Primarch #1: Uh, well, I can make a pretty mean sandwich.
Primarch #2: Oh, well that could be handy.
I really like Dorn's protocol. It's just a huge potential source of conflict among the astartes. Very interesting.
Also loved that you used the Rubicon metaphor. That's really fitting.

Oh my god how did I miss this upload! I have been listening back through the catalogue and I am so excited to see some newer uploads too. You are hands down THE. SINGLE. BEST SOURCE of WH40K content on youtube. Your videos have given me a clearer understanding of the Lore of this universe more than any other person
I watched this 2 years ago. Rewatching this masterpiece as Im working from home.
Every video of Luetin09 is perfect for having in the background while you sleep

Thank you brother luetin, this was the one ive been waiting for as only you could do it proper. I watch about 7 to 10 of your videos a day i cant relax and go to bed without them lol. I was just thinking about a new video today, and its a hour and a half...beautiful.
How do you sleep with how epic these things are?! lol
Luetin, saving us from going stir crazy.
Emperor protect you in these dark times friend.
ME : *Trying to find a film to watch during this lockdown*
*see's luetin upload*
this will do
I just listen to the playlist of all the lore at work and it makes time go by so much faster. Thanks for putting in the work to make these
Ive been watching you for the good part of a few months now. I have to say Im so thankful for this channel and your existence Luetin.
Ive always had mental health issues, and sleeping is no easy task. More often than not I find myself staring into apparitions created by my mind or trying to silence the other people in my head. I started listening to your channel after my friend told me about warhammer and I wanted to learn more
I started listening to you especially when Im trying to sleep and the past few months of sleep have been the best theyve ever been. Of course its still no small task but I just want to let you know how much easier youve made it.
I have more energy during the day and Im happier, and I also get to learn about the insane 40k lore since Im also a lore junky. I know im just some random small person in a following of hundreds upon thousands, but if you ever find this comment I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Keep up the amazing work L,
