Another example of Imperial horror today, and the intriguing way some planets get disconnected from the reality of the Imperium. I will try to get a bit of a channel update vid out soon, where I will update a few things, and make various announcements - planning on finishing the Assassins stuff - I know ppl want the next Tyranids, and I also have some Miniatures stuff coming too
Love the miniatures videoes Thanks!!
Asking for luetin09 for a Bloodpact lore video day 2.
Well at least is less scary than the fact that a hole franchise such as warhemmer fantasy is dead
Some serious Vietnam vs. America vibes on Blithe's jungle rush. I just imagine rusted Russ tanks literring a rainforest. Thanks for these uploads man, you're a champ.
Keep up the good work.👍
Time to relax with some imperial atrocities.
Here, I made popcorn *hands the bowl over*
@@StarboyXL9 Can I has some?
Made from real khorne?
It's not dusty enough per imperium daily dietary requirements. ARBITER!
The only atrocity was letting those heretical traitors on a loose leash in the first place.
Rophanon: "Give me Liberty or Give me Death"
Imperium: "Okay kiddos, have fun with the murder bugs, bye!"
Rophanon: "The Wh..."
*Tyranid screeching
Imperium: [Alt+F4]
Somewhere in the Imperial fleet there was a chamber in which a group of administrative adepts poured over tables of how much materiel in undertrained hands causes how much additional biomass expenditure by the Tyranids, and how valuable it would instead be if transported to other conflict regions. They found the point of optimatily in the difference of the two curves, submitted their findings, and that much materiel was left behind for the Rophanon rebels to use in their entirely futile attempt at fending of their doom, so that their sacrifice may benefit the Empire. May He on the Throne judge them justly.
Hilarious !!!! great comment Morning Napalm
@@garouHH
*Seal signed*
Can you imagine trying to use that ultimatum in the Imperium? I mean, I can guarantee that you'd get one of the two options 90% of the time (the other 10% would be made into servitors), but also that which of the options they chose to hand out would never change.
The Imperium would probably even be quite pleased - finally, a heretic making reasonable demands.
@@garouHH Tyranid: It's a deal.
"Thousands of miles of confusing trenches filled with the dead."
Deathcorps of Krieg: "Now THIS is
a paradise world."

Happy Gasmask Sounds!
Except for recieving imperial reinforcements, and being blown up in the end, Rophanon *is* basically Krieg, early history is all but identical.
@@Self-replicating_whatnot basically a better Kreig since they had sensibility and sense of self which is sadly not in the rest of the imperium.
@@wazzupsters Better as in "better off dead than as a war world"?
Such a brutal story. All they wanted was to throw off the chains of the population from the Imperium. All that biomass lost. Truly a sad day in Hive Mind history.

noooooo my biomass

The typical story of communism. Now in bug form.
@@NOGOHIPOO You'd enjoy living under the boot of the Imperium, wouldn't you?
The only thing worse than seeing Astartes drop pods, is seeing the Imperials leave altogether.
Yep! There is a story about a mining world: Once it had been completely stripped of all resources, the Imperium basically went, "k thx bye!" and left its population of millions of workers to starve.
@@jenswurm how imperial still alive today is comical
@@jenswurm what story is it I would like to read it
@@hellatze the imperium is alive because its so how should i say , opressive maybe? or some shit , in a universe such as the one in 40k the only way to survive its become shit yourself
@@hellatze Easy they are alive due to size. Something as large as the imperium with as fast breeding a species as humans tends to take a very very long time to die off. Look at cockroaches irl. We have all kinds of ways to kill them. Yet we cant entirely get rid of them.
You know its bad when Orks run away from it
Kind of surprising to know that they are even capable of feeling fear.
*"Orkses is never defeated in battle. If we win we win, if we die we die fighting so it don't count. If we runs for it we don't die neither, cos we can come back for annuver go, see!"*

I love the fact that one of the planets lying directly in the Hive Fleet's path is called 'Hamberger Wold' 🤣
In order for the Imperium to save Hamberger world, Rophanon had to be sacrificed
GW writing is S U B T L E
@@gatesdaniel4695 exactly. It was a complete surprise twist when the guy named Angron turned out to have his main personality trait being angry.
They FUCKIN knew lmao
Show dont tell eh?
That moment the rebels "won" against the Imperials and began to celebrate. Then to find the skies darken with strange creatures nobody has ever seen before. Man, that's just heart-breaking when you imagine that.
Seems like an average day in the far future. O.o
Sure if you’re a heretic loser
@@pyerack Imperium loves a good ol grindfest he moment they run you know shit has hit the fan.
the quality of narration makes it so much more tragically real
That's Warhammer 40k in a nutshell.
If it doesn't take your hope straight away then it allows it to grow in order to take it away anyway so it hurts more.
You either succumb to despair or face an even greater despair as punishment for not accepting the lesser one.
"His response was very Blythe." Why do i feel like this entire story exists to make this pun
Second only to Vore being eaten alive by the tyranid.
Whenever you have to ask "did GW do this purely for the sake of a pun?" you already know the answer :p
That's *so* Blythe!
@@BacaryLasagne what, a carnivore
Hamberger Wold
Mad to think that, even in Warhammer, there was a long time where life was genuinely wonderful. Before humanity's AI turned on it, life on a lot of planets was actually idyllic. Makes the current state of things even sadder.
It was also relatively ok until horus turned traitor. The Imperium really went downhill when the emperor was stuck on his chair.
@@raistlarn Even then it wasn't too great. But relatively ok compared to the Imperium of 40K I agree.
That kind of fhe point. The Dark of of Technology was a golden age and even after the was with the men of Iron, thing was relativily well...then came the age idlf Strife.
The.Emperor wanted a new golden age , with.a united humanity ( no matter the cost.) While he (technically ) fail, from what we cannread about in the war of the beast, things was going fairly well even after the Heresy.
The thing is that we are told that the years if 39,998 of the wirst if all human history. So they is that.
It's basically the story of a space faring catholicism perverting the message of a saviour and unleashing fascism on humanity across the universe.
I think life on most planets wouldn't be so bad unless you were enslaved or a low class prole living on a hive world or death world.
This story reminds me of what Farquad says in Shrek:
"Some of _you_ may die..."
"But that is a risk *I* am willing to take."
Almost had it lol
The standing armies of the world are all run by our versions of Farquad.
The men who call the shots somehow never end up among the dead and lame.
Conspiracy theory: The leaders of the rebels had some Genestealer taint in them.
Yup, Genestealers are sent out to establish as beacons for the Hive Fleets to find ripe worlds to harvest.
Unlikely because the Tyranid did not see the exterminatus coming.
If the genestealers was only among the rophanom they could have been tricked too
Right now: conspiracy theorists = spoilers
@DeadNinjutsu Food is food
Leutin: these actions were horrific, cold, and atrocious
Blythe: WHY YOU BOOING, IM RIGHT
I respect the profile picture
"Sedition is not something which simply explodes out of nowhere among a calm and peaceful state. We rarely see a population rise in disorder until they feel their backs are against the wall and there's nothing to lose. Most people are satisfied to live lives of relative simplicity, Providing they are housed, fed, and not living in terrible conditions. One might consider another trigger for rebellion against a government or state is when a population feels something has been abruptly or consistently taken away from them. Especially when those things have been the bedrock of a society for generations."
Truly inspired words. Nice work.
I look around and think we may all need to start digging bunkers, if for no other reason than personal safety...
Rophanon: "OK, we'll revolt against Terra, starting up armed resistance with an end goal of causing enough damage and frustration to give us a position of strength to renegotiate terms with the Imperium. A logical, reasonable motivation for going to war, at least from ancient times when humanity was more enlightened."
Imperium: "We don't do that here." *racks bolter*
@DeadNinjutsu The worst part is if they managed to survive the tyranids the population would have been killed off anyway as beyond just the heresy they committed i'm pretty sure tyranids are one of those things the ordo-hereticus considers a shoot on sight offence if you witness them.
Lol sometimes I feel like the imperium deals with rebels with nothing but spite alone
@@iwi2042 “cause fuck ‘em, that’s why!”
that's the true horror of warhammer 40k,that humanity(the imperium) is just as bad as the orks,tyranids,etc. in thier own way,,,the best of the lot is the tau,and even they have some messed up to them.
Which is reasonable and logical, because it stops the logical and reasonable from going to war.
"They're retreating! I don't believe it, we've won!" -Rebel who would soon become Nid biomass
In any other universe this would have been a story about two sides overcoming their differences and coming together to fight a common foe..
Warhammer does that just as much as other universes too
I’ve always said Humanity would strive for happiness and prosperity. This so called Empire just wouldn’t last in a real timeline. Way too Chaotic. But hey it’s fantasy.
Yes I love how relentlessly brutal and bleak it is lol
@@Smitty19966 Its the reverse, any state with that mentality would be the one not lasting in the warhammer universe. Happiness and prosperity are nice things to strive for, when you are not backed to a wall with a myriad of horrors from beyond trying to kill you. Anyone wasting their effort on some high minded ideal of pursuit of happiness, and not 100% focused on surviving there will end up nommed, chopped, possessed by warp entities or possibly causing their own mass death as they birth the next chaos god into existence.
We don't do that here
Surprised that the genestealers did not make an appearance. It would have “explained” why the nids arrived in such a timely manner with the rebellion.
@@pyerack that ruins the story
They're were getting ready to cause a bit of chaos, but then saw the rebellion.
genestealer Cultist: Well, we're not needed here. Guess we can just move to the celebration to await our saviors.
I like that just this once it was a nice little coincidence.
@@guillermocalle2184 and then the link get cut and they see their saviors for who they truly are. Damn everyone gets fucked in the end. Even the genestealers

He keeps making unnecessary pauses in his sentences, though, or repeating the same cadence.
meme comes to my mind: The risks were calculated. But man, im bad at maths
Lmao!
"Is exterminatus an option? ALWAYS"
lmao I love how there was literally no hesitation or gap in his speech there. Exterminatus is never not an option.
@yossarian Let's hope that Terra or Mars never finds out the hard way.
With utter morons like Blythe who are failing with such tremendous incompetence again and again, exterminatus is the only option! 🤡
"Asking a regular Guardsmen to just step out the ship "..." is quite a big ask!"

Great video again, they never disappoint!

@@NateB heresy expunged
Those poor Guardsmen who're Rophanon born where probably summarily executed even after they've served the Imperium tooth and nail... *THAT IS IT! IM JOINING CHAOS!*
They were executed because they had problems like sharp teeth, purplish tinge to skin, extra arms
Chaos Guard
I swear, 40K's lore is some of the most expansive I've ever seen. I've been into Warhammer for over 15 years and had never even heard of this planet or it's tale before, but it's a great story full of mystery, history and detail that I absolutely love.
I could say one of these funny “The Emperor has blessed us with another video” type comments but I am not. Instead I would like to thank you Luetin for the frequent uploads these video’s are the highlight of my month and I get almost all my lore knowledge from your videos. I have recently bought my first models to paint and practice just some skitarii rangers so nothing special but your video talking about how much painting them helped you and many others with the struggle of depression I got really inspired to start practicing! I truly appreciate your video’s.

45:31 the evacuation of Dunkirk in a nutshell
which one was the messier can be argued about.
Bigass nut, that.
@@freezia0 messy but successful, an entire army was evacuated, some were literally carried by fishing boats.
@@jgw9990 I'd argue it is more like the evacuation of gallipoly in ww1 look it up the British basically evacuated 36k men without the Turks knowing only hundreds of meters away form then, till they attacked empty trenches with guns rigged to fire every know and again. Probably one of the most successful evacuations in history up their with Dunkirk.
Pretty sad that even if they had stayed loyal, they still would have all died.
But having such a huge Imperial presence at the system meant they were better prepared to deal with the Tyranids.
Unless Rophanon was defended by Battlefleet Bakka no amount of ships would have mattered. In fact trying to fight a hive fleet head on is basically a suicide mission no matter what.
Last time I was this early terra still had churches

Finding out on a different lore video that one of the ships that the Imperium had has a functioning STC inside of it makes me believe that the Imperium has a whole bunch of them but the AI intelligence that's inside of them just refuses to work with this form of humanity they don't see the benefit and giving overwhelming Firepower to essentially what they consider a lesser form of human beings
That might actually be true. In the novel Death of Integrity, there is an ancient, DAOT AI which is extremely vocal in describing why the Imperial people sucks and why it doesn't want anything to do with them. For records, that AI was actually loyal to his previous human crew (they were from the Dark Age of Technology) and consider imperial humans to be an insult to everything humanity stood for.
Which video?
@@jigsaw1398 I think he's referring to the Speranza from the Ark Mechanicus series.
@@jigsaw1398 Dont remember which video it was but in short:
DAOT shop and crew traveled forward in time and saw serious shit, tried to go back to their timeline but landed in imperium time. The crew was tortured and the ship was in somekind of link with the captain so it felt/knew everything. The shop escaped.
Mechanicus/space marine team found it god knows how much later and boarded it. They were in awe how simple the design looked (no gothic monastery theme, Apple/ I am robot futuristic vibe instead).
The Ai hated them, locked the armor of the marines and when the techpriest started chanting and swinging his holy oil the Ai ridiculed them for how retarded they are, how mlow humanity has fallen. Dont remember if the ship killed the team but in the end it just fucked off.
It's less that and more of the AI find it smarter to just play dumb rather than help the imperium unless it absolutely has no choice.
"Better to die upon our feet, than to live upon our knees."
"But even better to fall on our knees so the opponent may let his guard down while an even stronger opponent grabs him at his neck and then you thrust your blase through both of them, and call it GG."
and get eaten either way
"Better to be eviscerated by bug monsters, dissolved into an undifferentiated pool of biomass, and converted into a seething mass of alien flesh before being vaporized by nuclear fire than to live on y our knees."
Honestly, I'm not sure about that.

Vore: Truly, I am in awe of my own genius
Kind of funny how the Imperium "lucked out" and had monster bugs turn up to do their dirty work for them. Can't have the Imperium lose or exterminatus a regular rebellion, can we. ;)
Yepp, how Blight's constant failures and his stunning incompetence were highly praised, the imperium must have pretty low standards.
I don't think so, more likely they would just keep grinding away until they finally break the rebellion while also burning down half the planet.
I’m really enjoying this content focused on more obscure planets and scenarios. Viewing things on a micro scale rather than the macro is fascinating.
An entire planet scoured by an endless swarm of trillions of xenos only to end up in a planetary annihilation ... micro scale
only in 40k
@@DeHerg Yep, micro scale by 40k standards. "A planet wide rebellion to declare independence? Meh, small potatoes."
Each year, dozens of worlds are settled, dozens of worlds are lost, and there is no shortage of years in Imperial history.

I wish rebellions like this would actually work out in 40k, even once in a while. At least a bunch of imperials and tyranids died in the process
Some rebellions do, but they tend to be upper class people doing it out of self-interest. And usually this turns their society into constant war, holding off the Imperium’s constant attempts to reclaim it.
It's called grimdark for a reason.
Regarding the sheer incompetence of oafs like Blight, it is really a wonder that the imperium is not already overtaken by rebellions.
@@Dieter-Doeddel I think the sheer brutality of repercussions and how most Imperial citizens aren’t very well-educated contributes to this.
You know the Imperials are just people, right? The actual "asshole evil" part of the Imperium is a sub-fractional percentage of the Imperial population. Outside of big name organizations, the Imperium is just... people.

The irony of a rebellion being consumed by the very evil that was the price of their subjugation would be poetic were it not for the absolute horror of the fate they met so disturbing to think about that it greys the very whimsically hilarious nature of such a situation

Much like the NVA and VC, the Rophanon rebels were under-estimated, and sheer might alone would not subdue them because they and their leaders had experienced it, and knew not to break. However both sides were exhausted by the end, and neither wanted to concede. the NVA/PAVN was willing to do basically anything to re-unify, even if it cost every last man. This means there was no way for the USA/ARVN to "win" short of complete destruction.... much like the imperium here. Unlike reality, 40k has space bugs that eat everything, and so in a perfect 40k twist, the "retreat" was actually just a means to destroy them and another enemy at another time... kind of like the USA did in the 80s-90s by re-casting vietnam as a bungled up mess that was actually won in everything but the end result... and influenced soviet-overconfidence that made things like the failed Afgan invasion possible. Next tyranids will fly a spacehulk into Mars, which will conveniently destroy evidence that the mechanicus was experimenting with new tech.
@@Robb1977 sounds like quite the story, but history is sometimes stranger than fiction. America didn't fail in nam outside of the pr stunt going wrong. Its just a skirmish in the on going war against the influence of communism. The CIA backed the Khmer rouge, commies, to help fight the Vietnamese. In power the Khmer rouge starved their own people and BEAT millions of citizens to death who wasn't a peasant and didn't conform. The man hours and logistics that must have gone into that effort. The CIA backed the Iranian revolution for access to surveillance the USSR border which saw its girls trade in miniskirts for burqas. Which saw them back Saddam hussein and encourage the iran Iraq war... not to mention all the success they had in south America. The USSR finally collapsed and the US saved the world from socialism... unless you consider social democracies 🤔
@@seanbirtwistle649 oh no the us did fail alot more than that. Sure they didnt technically lose battles, but they lost strike groups in Cambodia, often to their own bombers. The usa lost international support. The usa lost the chance for a democratic process. The usa solidified itself as an oligarchy.
When you know vietnam deeper you'll know ho chi minh actually asked for American support, he loved America. But he was denied because be was against French colonial interests and France was threatening to defect to the soviet union.
@@Robb1977 you only think the us failed, but since the end of the second world war after the west chose to back their currency to the us dollar they've been making sure that capitalism works for them at everyone else's expense. Even their own people are resources to be spent, who want their governments to do as little for them as possible. Its been an oligarchy of the rich for a very long time and that hasn't been threatened since 1991
Hey Luetin I just want to capitalize on what many comments say already but I truly am thankful for your videos. Many say your videos have helped through difficult times and I am one of those people. I remember many days listening to your videos when life was at its worst for me to calm my mind and take me for a moment away from whatever battle the day brung. They have always been a highlight in my youtube feed and I so very much appreciate your work. Your hard work and passion for 40K doesn't go unnoticed my friend. Thank you for consistently great content and telling of stories. Much love and support from many other fans including myself. I am thankful for your talents and passion.
when my dad died all of a sudden i retreated into 40k lore to escape it all, I read the ultramarines omnibus, ravenor and gaunts ghosts, I also watched luetin like a maniac, it was a rough year but 40k, luetin and the community kept me sane and with my mind busy in this crazy 40k world, now things are much much better, but I'll also be forever thankful to gw, the community and 40k in general for just being there.
Ah yes. Luetins sweet voice will carry me to sleep while telling me grim dark tales.
Lullaby of sorrow.
Exactly 😁
The title of this book "old man and his wonderful vacation"
After recent announcements, I think the rebellion of rophanon would be the best entry for a 40k movie/series.
**Halfway in** This doesn't seem to be very horrific by 40k standards...
**The last part** Damn, there it is
Ripsauce my dude
Earths atmosphere extends officially till the Carmen line, which lies at 100 km or 62 miles. Standard airliners have a cruising altitude of 6 to 7 miles up, the statement that earth's atmosphere extends only to 6 miles is very, very wrong.
Shut up. Dude does an hour of content and some nitpicking furry like you has the temerity to make a condescending comment that he will never read.
Sad.
"Oh, you don't want Imperial protection? Fine, we'll leave you alone.
Have fun with the Tyranids."
Finally someone thought of Exterminatus DURING the Tyranids attack and not before! 😀
Every time you release a 40k video it's like Christmas! I genuinely feel thrilled every time. Someone at GW should hire you.
NO!
The absolute best when it comes to the warhammer 40k storytelling.
You sir are a gift on UA-cam. It gets me through work and through my day when I get to listen to these.
THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK. Thank you for all you do!
I just want to say that I Love you choice of music. It perfectly complement each part of story telling.
I was a Paratrooper in the 82 Airborne division and your description of low earth floating deployment scared the crap out of me!!!! I can not imagine that many people handled that well.
The quote at the end about they gave their lives for the emperor whether they liked it or not is SOOO GOOOD!
This entire conflict shows the ineptitude of the imperium. A failure to allocate appropriate recourses to incidents from the beginning; or even a basic explanation of the horror of the tyranids who were then bound for the planet may have resolved this conflict. If Blythe’s brilliance is only matched by practicality of square wheels.
1am - a quick UA-cam refresh before sleep. Nooo, I must not see the Luetin update! I must not click on the link, I must preserve my energy for the emperor, I must sleep. Click. I am damned, Emperor I have failed you... .
Voor: The Imperium would never allow itself to be drawn into a war of attrition! I'm sure they'd be more open to reasonable negotiations than wage a costly war on us.
Every Guardsman in existence: Ohhhh nonononono *barely contained snickering*.
when your enemy who is known for countless endless battles and fighting to the end against even galactic threats suddenly retreats, that is the definition of horror.
this channel is the reason I got into 40k
Me too, now 20 odd books into the heresey.
Praise the Emperor! The great Luetin has returned to preach once again!
The Emperor protects, against boredom!
Goodnight everyone! God I love falling asleep listening to galactic crusades! For the Emperor!
Damn what a movie this is could be
Earth to raphanon
Imperium: u need democracy
Luetin uploads the moment i go to bed, so i guess i will have to sacrifice an hour of sleep.
For the imperium!!
I really enjoy how you told this like an historical account without the 4th wall breaks. I hope you cover more events like this.
40K lore makes no goddamn sense, but I love listening to it. Thank you, Luetin!
The lore really is crap. The appeal is in the styling of characters and factions as ridiculous over the top stereotypes. It's still and fun, but when you try to make the lore sound serious, its garbage.
@@jonlong2663 40K was never intended to be hard science fiction. It's more akin to science fantasy. The only problem I have with 40K lore is a lack of consistency in some areas.
A week ago I never heard of war hammer. Now that I’ve watched almost every one of your videos, I’m wondering how there isn’t a series about this? It could be a hybrid of the “Star Wars Stories” and “Black Mirror”. Instead of having one continuing story line, it follows stories from different individuals across the Imperium owned worlds.
The mechanichum stole stcs into the warp. You can imagine why on your own.
Technophile: This is getting me harder than terminator armour!
It's pretty crazy how I could be calmly listening to this in the background, then hear the "T-word" and look to the screen in horror, as if I were there too.
Inquisitor at the next conclave: "So then we all just left and let them think they'd WON!"
All assembled Inquisitors:
Just got done running through my 6 matches for the day.
I seem to be actually getting better at this game, or at least not as awful.
Feeling pretty good.
Felt even better upon closing out and seeing the upload.
Thanks, you always make my day.
