UA-cam & GAMESWORK PLEASE READ - This channel started years ago with this man using a cartoon avatar to make What If videos about warhammer lore. But about a year ago this man thought that it would be hilarious and profitable to openly use the N-WORD on this platform. Before this this man has made a comfortable career attacking, mocking as well as sending death threat to the Autistic Community. And in recent months this man started selling LOLLI PORNOGRAPHY using Gamesworkshop’s Intellectual property without the company’s permission behind his patreon pay wall. This man has constantly gone against UA-cam’s Terms and Services. When UA-cam took down the video where he laughed at using the N-word, this man re-uploaded the same video with a minor edit so that he could have a second laugh. When the community tries to cancel him for his horrible behavior that is exactly when he discontinued his cartoon avatar and started Parading in front of the camera. He doubled down constantly saying phrases along the line “I’ll do whatever I want”. For a hobby with a recommended age of 13 and older this can not be helpful for the community. I was 13 when I stepped into the GW for the first time, and over the years I saw other unhinged man-children in the shop doing saying the exact same things as this individual. And every single time a parent would hear the exact words from those men come out of their children’s and they all received life bans. How is this any different? UA-cam’s platform allows him reach kids on an international level, he is directly responsible for creating the future RACISTS, SEXUAL PREDATORS, and CHRISCHANS. UA-cam, Gamesworkshop and the sponsors that allow this behavior to continue are allowing themselves to associated with criminal activities. To any other critics who have also received death threat from this man, call his local authorities for questioning. And let me remind everyone that these actions of his are only the tip of the iceberg. To Gamesworkshop, he has made a following on UA-cam that is close to your very own. On UA-cam. WHY? Because your lore videos are boring(no offense), leaving parts of the community to funnel into this channel. On his live feeds he getting large donations from individuals, that money could be going directly into your own pockets. If you want to direct your customers into profitable lore videos, then GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT. Write a script that you are passionate about, cut the check and sent it to Superman. If you can some how pull that off, you will make a believer out of me and many others. I would even help with the cost by going back to my local Warhammer store and buy me some blood angels. To my close friends that were offended and then told by this man to shrug it off, I’m sorry. This disturbed man can not change his ways because he had years to prove it. And finally to you Majorkill- A dweeb who hides in sleeveless under armour is still a dweeb. You’ll never get rid me me
"Dude was playing 4D chess by himself while everyone else was playing rugby" That’s probably the best description of Alpharius and the alpha legion I’ve heard so far. Doesn’t matter how smart you are when you fall into the gorilla enclosure...
Guillimans best jokes: "What do you call a melted-down tank? Scrap metal." "Two hunters meet. They are both dead." "What was the Istvan Dropsite called before the masacre? The Dropsite." "Being the Emperor is the worst job in the Imperium. Because he's in constant agony for 10k years😂😂"
There was also a dude in the Sabbat worlds novel "Titanicus" who had a miniature shop where he painted and made miniatures of the local titan legion (though most of his work was repairing nobles' broken dolls and shit)
There are some funnier facts. I think Luther said in his novel that Lion is a great singer, he learned how to copy any animal sound, that’s why he can sing so well. Perturabo liked to make art. He still made it a competition with his step brother who was the greatest artist of the time, and actually lost a final statues making contest. Yes. The man actually beat primarch at something. Konrad cruixified thousands of rats on a ship taking him to Tsaguelsa. Yep. Hundreds of tiny crosses with rats impaled on them. Angron had a dog. Corax’s step mother stopped him from nuking his enemies. Guiliman was unable to squish a coin when he was little and cried when accidentally hurt his adoptive dad. Jagahai writes poetry. Horus grew out his hair and beard as Warmaster because he kept forgetting to shave. Lorgar learned to manipulate people by making them think they are manipulating him. Worlds half the time he tries. To name a few. I have to re read the novels to find more but you get the deal.
@@ElodieStarjem in Sinew Of War „I was five and my father had taken me hunting. I knew why. Even then I could read people as easily as I read the military treatises in Deucalis Library. My father had seen me watching his generals and magistrates. He saw how I despised them. The greatest statesmen of the greatest city were idiots, blind to the most important resource on the planet - their own, needlessly oppressed people. They were fools and tyrants and, even aged five, I wanted to tear down the whole, hide-bound edifice. My father felt the same, I knew he did. But my place in Macragge was precarious and he was too wise to risk my life on a point of principle. So he took me away, to a place we both loved, to the cold, beautiful foothills of the Crown Mountains where we could breath clean air and ease our fury by scrambling over rocks and scree. Away from the Senate, my father dropped the pretence that I was a normal child and we hunted together as equals. He laughed, as he always did, at the sight of my unfettered strength, proud of his strange little son. But then, when I saw him fall, grimacing at a gash on his arm, a dreadful truth hit me. We were not equals. We never could be. My father was not like me. The man who taught me about life was not destined to live. The flash of crimson on his tunic stalled my breath. One day, Konor Guilliman would die. He would leave me behind. Leave me with the fools and the tyrants. In that moment I became the child I usually only pretended to be. Tears filled my eyes and I placed my hand over his wound, wishing it away. He laughed, shaking his head - not in mockery, but reassurance. He took out a coin and handed it to me. His face was minted on one side and Consul Gallan's was minted on the other. He closed my hand over it, squeezing it tight. "Feel its strength," he said. Strong as I was, I could not crush the metal. "The coin is Macragge," he said, "Beautiful and unbreakable. Made to outlive us all. And while there is a Macragge, I will be with you, Roboute. My virtue is the virtue of Macragge. My strength is the strength of Macragge. This is not just my home, Roboute, it is my soul and it is my family. And it is your family, too. Macragge will endure. Macragge must endure. And as long as it does, you will not be alone." Konor’s death is also described in this book
Vulkan played Battlemace 42 Million inside the deepest darkest corner of his room at Nocturne to pass the time while wait for the Salamanders to find all Nine Artefacts and gather them together. So he will finally sneakily exit, go to space and board a Drop Pod to land and before his sons for a reunion.
Other fun Lion facts: He was into wine and had his own vineyards. He was also apparently an incredibly gifted singer and maintained an impressive collection of weapons from different cultures across the ages.
2:20 It's crazy that Fulgrim decided to be a warrior than a diplomat and bureaucrat since he was able to bring Chemos back to peace and prosperity without conflict. And he would have gotten along with Roboute, who did a similar thing with his 500 worlds.
probably his ego, him seeing all of his brothers being warriors and tacticians probably inspired him to want to be the best of them, beating all of them at their own game and more, after all his perception of perfection was not just constant improvement, but being better than everyone else.
Maybe he was just trying to fit in even🤷♂️ Also, Xenos weren't exactly popular with the emperor anyways, how much "peace and diplomacy" did he actually want?...
Imagine how ridiculously OP Mortarion would have been, if he had embraced his psychic powers. He would have been the tankiest primarch, one of the physically strongest, among the stealthiest, wielding one of the most powerful weapons, and have been the second most powerful psyker. I am genuinely convinced he would have given Sanguinius a run for his money.
Yeah but once he was corrupted it was less an embrace and more like Anakin turning into Darth Vader. Everything he had is gone so why not shoot warp fire out of his cock?@@dimitrijestanisic3478
Angron is by far the biggest tragedy of the Primarchs to me. Literally created to help others, more so than any other Primarch, and yet has been cursed to live a life of pain and conflict, not only for himself, but for others. He got fucked hard, and not in the good way.
Just imagine if he hadn't had the butcher's nails planted into his brain, literally he might have been able to prevent some of his brothers from turning to chaos through his empathic abilities and counselling, he would have been better at it than Vulkan, he could've used his abilities to help keep Perturabo loyal and reduce his bitterness, and his abilities may have even helped Horus from getting resentful towards the emperor for abandoning the great crusade. In my opinion he's one of the few people that if his upbringing was better off (by that I mean if the eldar stopped making things worse by acciident) then it would have had a knock on effect to change the entire setting completely.
@@Gazza-eo3ei Absolutely. Some of the greatest lost potential in 40k is Angron, which is why it makes his unfortunate path all the more saddening. He really could have been one of the greatest, but circumstance fucked him over hard. To no fault of his own, he got one of the worst deals.
@@thedyingmeme6 I love Angrons tragedy but at the same time the character is just such a one dimensional character, I completely get why he's like that and I love it but I just can't like a character like that. I love Perturabo and Magnus, especially for their relationships with each other, both were outcasts among most of the primarchs, they had a love of learning and inventing, they both had massive tempers and had a sense of arrogance around them, yet they were so different in how they did everything, Perturabo had no psychic power but was an unrivalled genius in the physical sciences and conventional strategy, whereas Magnus's true talent lay in sorcery and using the warp to circumvent his enemies ways of war completely, even their appearances seemed to challenge each other, with Perturabo being like a dark iron statue, whereas Magnus was ever changing. The few interactions we see with them are amazing. They're definitely my favourite traitors
Rogal Dorn was fond of the blanket which was a gift from his surrogate grandfather who adopted and raised him in Inwit, and kept it by his side. Even after he had grown massive that towers over normal humans and Space Marines.
I am now imagining Dorn keeping his blankie inside his armor during battle... Dorn: "This blanket was a gift from my beloved adoptive grandfather, it comforts me and provides additional padding against blunt trauma. It is a very functional piece of equipment."
as an alpha legion fan the image of Alpharius sitting there with a 4D chess board then suddenly getting dive tackled by Rogal Dorn out of nowhere is utterly hilarious to me!
Somehow the most absurd thing of all is the thought that while the Horus Heresy raged across the Galaxy, Guilliman was cosplaying as Horus and bullying his soldiers.
I like (hate) how the fun fact about Ferrus Manus isn’t even about the man himself, but about Fulgrim’s relationship with / outlook towards him, and about a bunch of clones, which as mentioned elsewhere in lore (and covered by MajorKill) are only ever at best a shadow of the original due to lack of warp-infused secret sauce from the emperor’s recipe. Like, I’m not even an Iron Hands fan, but the dude has so much potential for character development, it’s starting to look kinda brain-dead by GW / Black Library for not just hiring a good writer and giving them the brief: “this guy punched a dragon and got special metal arms, he’s insanely good at building shit, now go write his whole backstory.” Like, even more than Perturabo, he’d be perfect to go on some side quest during the Crusade or Heresy involving Dark Age of Technology shit, AI, interacting with the Leagues of Votann, maybe a prelude encounter with the Necrons. Hell, have him chance to meet up with Trazyn in which they eventually discuss Ferrus’ theories of how it might’ve actually been possible to return the Necrons to an organic form, but then Ferrus suddenly gets an urgent transmission to report with his legion to Isstvan V, the end.
GW really needed to do a full "setting reset" when they decided to make the Primarchs actual beings, instead of trying to work backwards. Failing that, they needed to do a "First Great Crusade" setting, NOT the Horus Heresy, to truly set the stage for the Primarchs and their Legions. And give them time to really flesh things out - like why Ferrus Manus is often considered so pivotal to the Primarchs that whoever had him was going to "win". And time to sit back and go "Waitaminute... that's really effing DUMB." for things like the findings of Angron and Mortarion, to set up the reveal of Alpharius being the first-found (imagine having a non-descript Legionnaire accompanying Custodes or the Emperor at strange times, being personally commanded by the Emperor or Valdor, and even at times giving orders to Custodes? And having that character being referred to only by a Rank for something like 20 books, before it's revealed it's Alpharius?), and to truly give depth to the characters who fell to Chaos? But... alas. Hopefully others have learned from GW's mistakes.
I feel like there is so much overlap in his skills with Dorn, Perturabo, and Vulcan. I think that’s probably why he doesn’t get much focus compared to his brothers.
I wouldnt call Lion's perception of the emperor the most true, He is practically seeing himself in his perception. Which is supported by his HH ego and that everyone sees the emperor as what they want to see him as. Only one that has made Emperor uneasy with his perception was Corvus. He described how emperor looked back on terra and it made emperor uneasy like he had hit too close to home.
@@Allen667sjja if you mean about Corvus, it should be in his primarch Novel, its not that Corvus managed to see through the Emperor's illusion, it was that he somehow managed to remember the time he was still in the gestation pod and see the emperor without his glorious aura on maybe since the emperor was alone with a bunch fetuses in a tube he loweres his guard, it is hinted that this might be his true form cause the emperor wasnt happy about it when Corvus told him this.
@@tomross4816 you miss the point. During HH lion sees the emperor who looks like himself but older wearing an emerald plate. Something "coincidentally" he ends up wearing now older and wearing an emerald plate after his powernap. He himself matches the description he saw the emperor as.
Guilliman was also a *HUGE* mama's boy towards his adoptive mother, Tarasha Euten. He even visited her regularly even after he joined the Imperium and asked her for advice. She was still alive by the time of the Heresy, as being the foster mom of a Primarch gave her access to the best Imperium healthcare!!!
@@starhammer5247 Thats just major headcanon. Lion thinks he is right... Always. until WH40K return when he has started to really reflect on the matter and got to terms that he was wrong about alot of things. He thinks Emperor looks like him. But he doesnt. Emperor looks like how you want you to see him. Corvus is the only one who has made the emperor uneasy by bypassing the visual veil and telling him how he looked on terra before scattering.
just to add to the mindfuckery of the visual veil of the emperor, Lion sees the emperor as a hooded old man with emerald plate armor, Lions current look in WH40K is hooded old man with emerald plate armor. He absolutely did not see the true visage of the emperor.
@@_NutcasE_ The Lion told absolutely no one what he saw. I don't recall a single lore instant where he told anyone what he saw when he looked upon the Emperor and it was not the Lion who said that he saw the truest version. It was the lore saying that. It was the lore itself, it was not the Lion, no one said anything about his viewpoint, it was the book itself. Also, it said nothing about the Emperor looking like him, it just said that he saw a robed figure in green armour and did not see his face. The Lion has never worn green, not once. Even his recent appearance does not show him in green armour. The Lion has always worn black.
@@starhammer5247 You are wrong, Lion describes to himself what the emperor looks like. and Official GW art depicts him in green plate. Hell Son of the Forest depicts him in green emerald plate so dark it might fool someone as black. So you shot yourself on the foot. READ THE NOVELS NOT REDDIT.
On top of that the 2nd primarch actually an impossibly good scooter skater. Until he hit Emps in the shin with his solid aurmite scooter and was erased as a result.
The only ones i didn't really know about was guilliman, vulkan and jaghatai ones but one fun fact that i like is that rogal dorn still have the blanket that was made by his grandfather, that was pretty wholesome
5:23 That's actually really, really sad if you think about it. Fulgrim worships Slaneesh, the prince of pleasure and excess. He has his own pleasure planet and could have basically whatever. Sex, drugs, food, riches and probably things we can't even think of. But when offered that what he wants so badly is his brother back.
Here's a funfact I recently learned about my fav Primarch. Corvus doesn't actualy like poetry because it reminds him too much of the slave songs the people sung back in the mines of Lycaeus, now Deliverance.
@@080ization I like ravens and I like stealth. If it weren't for the Raven Guard, I probably wouldn't be so invested in Warhammer. The Night Lords probably would've pulled me in if it wasn't the Ravens.
Lion seeing Big E as he truly is is so cool! More green Big E art! Perturabo playing Tabletop 40k with his sons is both sweet and amusing. Angron really was screwed by being dumped on Nuceria. Paladin Angron sounds so cool! Daemon Corvus is so badass and him being that trusted by Big E makes me love Corvus even more. But don't forget how only he, of all his brothers, knows the Emperor's secret knock, "shave and a haircut, two bits."
Lion does not see Big E as he truly is that is just Major headcanon. thus far only primarch who has been teased to see Emperor in his true form is Corvus Corax who made emperor uneasy when he tells how he sees the emperor and the emperor gets uneasy about it. basicly he gets uncomfortable that someone can see through his layers. Lions description suits himself which fits his HH ego as he always thinks himself closest to emperor so naturally he sees the emperor as himself.
I think the fact that it’s green - the Dark Angels’ post-legion livery - is a big hint that it’s not his complete true-form, but still a lot closer to it than just about anyone else can see. Still badass and reflective of the Lion’s aspect as a sort-of chivalric knightly hunter and slayer of monsters / warp entities. But yeah, regarding what @_NutcasE_ mentions, the scene in the book where the emperor comes down in-person to meet Corax, when he first comes out of his ship he’s sort of flexing / peacocking a little bit by “slightly” ramping up his psychic presence and charisma. All the mortal humans present see a perfect godlike being in the stereotypical idealized human form, emanating unfathomable power, and they can’t help / lose the will to do anything but fall to their knees in awe, hardly being able to withstand gazing directly at him for more than like a second. Meanwhile, Corax only sees just a simple hooded figure, albeit giving off a faint golden aura while he’s actively flexing, but nothing more, and Corax only has to exert a little fraction of his own willpower to be completely resistant to it. He’s immediately sus of the emperor (and in general anyone) who would take away men’s free will, even for good, and it’s for this reason that he uniquely can see the true form and gets told about the warp and stuff. Like, after introductions, the emperor goes into Corax’ tent with him, and they sit and talk for hours, in which the emperor actually takes off his hood and Corax just sees a simple old man. The emperor explicitly says that Corax is pretty much the only person in history who he can just talk to as a fellow man (or where they both at least see each other as). I guess Malcador might be the one other person in this category maybe? I’m not sure. But yeah, tl;dr Corvus Corax’ goth-loner persona is his lowkey greatest primarch superpower.
@@MrHolydoodle Not true at all. Honsu and Perty played together and Perty wanted him to win which he did. It was the opposite actually, he straight up said he would kill Honsu if Honsu lost the game.
The Lion couldn't see the Emperor better than his brothers, it was pure vanity on his part. He thought he could, but it was clearly biased, especially with that emerald armor, as we all know Auramite is golden and the Emperor wore an Auric-Adamantine alloy.
@muzanjackson8827 that part isn't from a characters perspective though. Those little parts in-between the chapters aren't really from anyone's perspective. The actual chapters themselves, yes.
@@muzanjackson8827 seemed more like the thoughts of a third entity looking in than either the em0erors or the lions, like he was narrating everything and knowing everything.
I never understood sanguinius wings. you have a guy flying around with these dainty angel wings, in some of the most unimaginable hellish battles. it seems like they would be constantly getting shot off, and having to grow back.
He definitely uses his wings to fly. Not sure of the lore that says he doesn't, but it's in the siege of terra books when he's thinking about the intricate design of them whilst flying.
People can talk all they like about which Primarch can do what, or best who....but Corax is a tier above them all. He saw anything and everything for exactly what it is, including the emperor, horus, and chaos. He only picked fights when he knew he could personally win, or without losing too many of his own marines. Emps trusted him above all the others. When Corax went into the eye and said he would hunt and kill all Chaos including his brothers, we should take his word for it.
Would be nice to see you cover Gulliman's reaction to how codex compliant some of his sons are to the codex after he awoken. It'll be hilarious how some of his sons treated his codex more like a Bible than a tactical guide
I like to imagine that Angron, even as an undamaged paladin version of himself, would still reject the Emperor after he goes to a battlefield and magically experiences the secondhand suffering of every enemy of the Emperor killed. He'd experience all the pain, would reject the cruelty of the Imperium, and potentially join his two unknown brothers in the list of expunged primarchs. I think this would be likely since even with his nail-brained form, he often thought about how cruel the Imperium was, mentioning how for every tyrannical evil world he encountered, there'd be ten innocent worlds begging to be left alone. So even in ragemode he felt bad for his actions, so loving empath Angron would feel even worse. There's also the fact that he'd only really ever experienced the cruelty of humankind in the gladiator pits, aside from that Eldar kill team who likely wouldn't exist in this alt-timeline considering they weakened him enough to be captured. The only opposition I can think of to this theory is the existence of Vulkan and the nature of Space Marine brainwashing. Vulkan is super nice yet also the guy who turned an Eldar child into pavement jam, and the fact that Space Marines can fall to Chaos but not Tau brainwashing makes me wonder if the Primarchs were genetically instilled with a hatred for Xenos, though even Horus was willing to negotiate with the Kinebrach and Interex so that theory might be less plausible
people focus on the eldar child part but not the constant pain, torture and mental agony vulkan was put through by curze= and people also ignore the fact that he felt heavy remorse and disgust towards himself after in moments of clarity
@@anirudhashok3332 he also burnt down an entire planet of peacefully coexisting Eldar Exodites and human survivors of a spacecraft crash who worshipped the Eldar as their saviors and gods. The Exodites rarely let people peacefully live on their planets, so Vulkan destroyed a one in a million opportunity to build better relations with the Eldar just because the human's worship and love of the Eldar made them refuse the Imperium's offers Also the Kurze stuff happened after the child incident, since it was Kurze who ordered his Marines to open fire into the crowd, and Vulkan despised him for that. So the Kurze stuff doesn't really affect his actions with the child. And while he did regret the child-splatting it didn't really alter his view on Xenos, he just sulked about losing his temper before moving on to other things
@@anirudhashok3332 it was the Compliance of Caldera (leave it to Vulkan to name a planet after a volcanic crater) and the wiki lists their sources as: *The Primarchs (Anthology) edited by Christian Dunn *"Feat of Iron" by Nick Kyme *Promethean Sun (Novella) by Nick Kyme Personally I only knew about it from TTS (the best Warhammer source), I haven't read the books myself
Angron fell so that Sanguinius could soar. he was the consolation prize to Khorne, tho it's hard to say that the empire would have been better off with their roles reversed. as scary as daemon prince Angron might be, Sanguinius certainly would have been much much worse.
@@kekkoinen lol be real. do we really think the guy named after blood that represents honourable combat but also unending bloodlust was gonna go to Nurgle? Sanguinius represents Khorne's duality of being more than any other primarch and Nurgle's whole deal is stagnation and decay.
Sanguinius would have been either Khorne or Slaanesh. Never heard any one suggest Nurgle until now. Khorne for the Blood Angels red thirst and near berserker tendencies. Slaanesh for Sanguinius trying to change his legion from the violence obsessed killers into artists and artisans. Seriously, I'm trying to wrap my head around the Nurgle angle but I just don't see it. The angle I see would be "acceptance that you are broken" but that still really leans more into the Khorne side than Nurgle.
@@deltatea3192 yeah i just see Nurgle as being complacency and acceptance of death and collapse, and there's just not a lot of Primarchs that naturally go that way. even Morty had to essentially be "tricked" into it out of compassion for his soldiers, and if Sanguinius was gonna go that way (deal to ease the suffering of his comrades) it seems like Slaneesh or Khorne have the most direct route to easing the suffering of their eternal thirst.
@@entropicflux8849 I think it would be an acceptance of his wings which he had problems with, Nurgle would not give a shit about the matter, he would accepted with his faults and all
It'd be cool if you sited which book these things came from so I can check them out. I know the Perturabo thing comes from Angel Exterminatus and those war games were sweet
I will point out, however, that Corax is the Emo one. His “sable brand” that he passed on to his sons was far more of an emo trait than anything Konrad did.
"HEY I SHOT YOU! CALL YOUR HITS!" _(Ultramarine not moving due to gaping wound and loss of hearts)_ Bobby G: "Ok Who The *FUCK* changed it to *LIVE ROUNDS!* " _(light bluish space marine sweats)_
Fun fact: Dorn must constantly be on zoloft or restrict his emotions because if he let loose at all, the energy released would be catastrophic to unknown levels(think blackbolt from marvel) and his personality was molded by the political climate and various deadly lifeforms of his home planet. Literally if you showed emotion or generated it there was a 90% that you died immediately from people trying to protect themselves or aliens(were essentially living mood rings) looking for a snack.
Alpharius wanted too look smart yeah but he was also in command of one of the most effective legions during the hh as they brought in the most plants into compliance in the shortest amount of time. And that is just with him messing around to make it more interesting.
With the fewest casualties, but not the shortest amount of time. Alpharius would regularly take months longer than necessary taking over planets because he preferred more intricate, challenging and riskier plays that resulted in fewer casualties for his soldiers.
I kinda like the idea of Alpharius being a bit of a fuck-up because he demands to play strategies the most overly complicated way possible, even to a detriment It's like a metaphor for people who cake themselves up with so many layers of irony that they end up forgetting their true selves
Sanguinius even wondered himself how in the hell he flies because his wings are far to small to support his weight. Another fun fact. The great Kahn picked up a leviathan dreadnought with one hand and threw it over a battlement
Vulkan is traveling the galaxy on a conventional ship going from feudal world to feudal world teaching the locals how to farm all the way up to build space ships, he leaves to start again.
Bruh it'd be SO sicc if u did a "What if Angron never received the butcher's nails/became the paladin he was meant to be?" And damn, I did not know that about my best boi Corvus, that is very pog!! I wonder how he'd fare in a fight against each of his brothers?
With the release and great success of "Warhammer: The Old World" Is there any chance you'll do some warhammer fantasy videos since you used to express your great fondness over it? I think it'd help your channel grow by attracting a wider audience.
Fun fact: scientists now think that the hollow bones found in birds, many sauropod and theropod dinosaurs, and horses of all things, are more to do with sufficient oxygenation of blood rather than density or weight savings. So Sangy was just not dedicated enough to fly. A few extra hours of cardio a day and maybe those wings would have been worth a damn
Going by most art of him they're still too small for his size to actually generate enough lift for him to fly, he could probably glide decently well with them when lightly, or wholly, unarmored though.
That description of Alpharius is probably the most accurate thing. "Oh going for a crash ball off the top of the lineout, how predictable Dorn, that's why I'm here ready and waiting to receive you and turn you over, wait, oh shit" Actually looks up just before being ran over and flattened by Dorn
The idea of Bobby G cosplaying as Horus is just hilarious. How uncomfortable must the other Astartes have been done up as Sons Of Hours and Emperors Children? Lmao!
Superb video as always @majorkill. Could you make a video dedicated to the Navigators, the major houses, their politics, relation to the overall Imperium and factions, etc
Majorkill could we get a run down on the major battles of the unification wars and the solar reclamation war please. Great content by the way back into the hobby now 25 years of buying this.
I recall when King Blueberry dressed up as Horus that he asked a marine why they lost the battle. The marine said "Because you would be with us." This is just a little extra lore.
Corvus:'I am what I always have been, 'I am vengeance incarnate. I am justice delivered. This place, beyond the veil, has revealed what we all are. Underneath the veneer of humanity our father crafted for us, we are of the warp.' Lorgar: 'Have you come to make oath to the powers that are your true creator?' Corvus: 'No. I swore to destroy all Chaos taint from the galaxy. You will be the first fallen brother to die beneath my blades.' Lorgar:'I am not the creature you fought at Isstvan' Corvus:'Nor am I!' So glad Corvus was allowed to know the truth of the Warp hands down one of my favorite short stories.
I love Corvus being fucking Biblically Accurate Raven Daemon Shit, i wonder how would all Primarchs look like if they embraced thier true power and achieved "True Potential"
@@dreademperor2094 I imagine Lion looking like more badass and terryfing version of Watchers in the Dark, like a hooded figure, in dark gloomy Armor, maybe some angelic but Black wings and some bigass Sword. We don't know much about nature of Primarchs, would be interesting to finally see what they're really capable of when using true 100% of thier Potential
Oh, Warhammer. The only universe in which we have to consider the ethical implications of a 5 to 10-year-old man-sized demigod getting laid. Never change.
Perturabo is probably the most overdramatic of all the primarchs, multiple times he set up scenarios for no reason except to not just win an argument or battle, but to do so in humiliating fashion. Smacking Fulgrim into a game board and launching a nuke directly at Vulkan are some highlights.
About the Peter Turbo part, I did actually hear a little about it because of that time where he smashed Fulgrim's face into a titan mini. The "... and yet I'm the one holding the hammer" part, right?
Bonus fun fact, Sanguinus got 70% off his first skin case package but using my link here geolog.ie/MAJORKILL70

He doubled down constantly saying phrases along the line “I’ll do whatever I want”. For a hobby with a recommended age of 13 and older this can not be helpful for the community. I was 13 when I stepped into the GW for the first time, and over the years I saw other unhinged man-children in the shop doing saying the exact same things as this individual. And every single time a parent would hear the exact words from those men come out of their children’s and they all received life bans. How is this any different? UA-cam’s platform allows him reach kids on an international level, he is directly responsible for creating the future RACISTS, SEXUAL PREDATORS, and CHRISCHANS. UA-cam, Gamesworkshop and the sponsors that allow this behavior to continue are allowing themselves to associated with criminal activities. To any other critics who have also received death threat from this man, call his local authorities for questioning. And let me remind everyone that these actions of his are only the tip of the iceberg. To Gamesworkshop, he has made a following on UA-cam that is close to your very own. On UA-cam. WHY? Because your lore videos are boring(no offense), leaving parts of the community to funnel into this channel. On his live feeds he getting large donations from individuals, that money could be going directly into your own pockets. If you want to direct your customers into profitable lore videos, then GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT. Write a script that you are passionate about, cut the check and sent it to Superman. If you can some how pull that off, you will make a believer out of me and many others. I would even help with the cost by going back to my local Warhammer store and buy me some blood angels.
To my close friends that were offended and then told by this man to shrug it off, I’m sorry. This disturbed man can not change his ways because he had years to prove it.

The mental image of Perturabo sitting in his power armour hunched over a table painting miniatures for his board game makes me happy for some reason.
Guilliman and Perturabo nerding over minis its actually kinda wholesome
There was also a dude in the Sabbat worlds novel "Titanicus" who had a miniature shop where he painted and made miniatures of the local titan legion (though most of his work was repairing nobles' broken dolls and shit)

There are some funnier facts.
I think Luther said in his novel that Lion is a great singer, he learned how to copy any animal sound, that’s why he can sing so well.
Perturabo liked to make art. He still made it a competition with his step brother who was the greatest artist of the time, and actually lost a final statues making contest. Yes. The man actually beat primarch at something.
Konrad cruixified thousands of rats on a ship taking him to Tsaguelsa. Yep. Hundreds of tiny crosses with rats impaled on them.
Angron had a dog.
Corax’s step mother stopped him from nuking his enemies.
Guiliman was unable to squish a coin when he was little and cried when accidentally hurt his adoptive dad.

„I was five and my father had taken me hunting. I knew why. Even then I could read people as easily as I read the military treatises in Deucalis Library. My father had seen me watching his generals and magistrates. He saw how I despised them. The greatest statesmen of the greatest city were idiots, blind to the most important resource on the planet - their own, needlessly oppressed people. They were fools and tyrants and, even aged five, I wanted to tear down the whole, hide-bound edifice. My father felt the same, I knew he did. But my place in Macragge was precarious and he was too wise to risk my life on a point of principle. So he took me away, to a place we both loved, to the cold, beautiful foothills of the Crown Mountains where we could breath clean air and ease our fury by scrambling over rocks and scree. Away from the Senate, my father dropped the pretence that I was a normal child and we hunted together as equals. He laughed, as he always did, at the sight of my unfettered strength, proud of his strange little son. But then, when I saw him fall, grimacing at a gash on his arm, a dreadful truth hit me.
We were not equals. We never could be. My father was not like me. The man who taught me about life was not destined to live. The flash of crimson on his tunic stalled my breath. One day, Konor Guilliman would die. He would leave me behind. Leave me with the fools and the tyrants. In that moment I became the child I usually only pretended to be. Tears filled my eyes and I placed my hand over his wound, wishing it away. He laughed, shaking his head - not in mockery, but reassurance. He took out a coin and handed it to me. His face was minted on one side and Consul Gallan's was minted on the other. He closed my hand over it, squeezing it tight.
"Feel its strength," he said. Strong as I was, I could not crush the metal. "The coin is Macragge," he said, "Beautiful and unbreakable. Made to outlive us all. And while there is a Macragge, I will be with you, Roboute. My virtue is the virtue of Macragge. My strength is the strength of Macragge. This is not just my home, Roboute, it is my soul and it is my family. And it is your family, too. Macragge will endure. Macragge must endure. And as long as it does, you will not be alone."

Other fun Lion facts: He was into wine and had his own vineyards. He was also apparently an incredibly gifted singer and maintained an impressive collection of weapons from different cultures across the ages.
2:20 It's crazy that Fulgrim decided to be a warrior than a diplomat and bureaucrat since he was able to bring Chemos back to peace and prosperity without conflict.
And he would have gotten along with Roboute, who did a similar thing with his 500 worlds.
probably his ego, him seeing all of his brothers being warriors and tacticians probably inspired him to want to be the best of them, beating all of them at their own game and more, after all his perception of perfection was not just constant improvement, but being better than everyone else.
Maybe he was just trying to fit in even🤷♂️
Also, Xenos weren't exactly popular with the emperor anyways, how much "peace and diplomacy" did he actually want?...
Imagine how ridiculously OP Mortarion would have been, if he had embraced his psychic powers. He would have been the tankiest primarch, one of the physically strongest, among the stealthiest, wielding one of the most powerful weapons, and have been the second most powerful psyker. I am genuinely convinced he would have given Sanguinius a run for his money.

Angron is by far the biggest tragedy of the Primarchs to me. Literally created to help others, more so than any other Primarch, and yet has been cursed to live a life of pain and conflict, not only for himself, but for others. He got fucked hard, and not in the good way.
Yeah, Angron, Perty, and Magnus are my favorite traitors
Just imagine if he hadn't had the butcher's nails planted into his brain, literally he might have been able to prevent some of his brothers from turning to chaos through his empathic abilities and counselling, he would have been better at it than Vulkan, he could've used his abilities to help keep Perturabo loyal and reduce his bitterness, and his abilities may have even helped Horus from getting resentful towards the emperor for abandoning the great crusade. In my opinion he's one of the few people that if his upbringing was better off (by that I mean if the eldar stopped making things worse by acciident) then it would have had a knock on effect to change the entire setting completely.
@@thedyingmeme6 Agreed wholeheartedly. I could possible switch Perturabo with Curze, but that depends on my mood at the time.
@@Gazza-eo3ei Absolutely. Some of the greatest lost potential in 40k is Angron, which is why it makes his unfortunate path all the more saddening. He really could have been one of the greatest, but circumstance fucked him over hard.
To no fault of his own, he got one of the worst deals.
@@thedyingmeme6 I love Angrons tragedy but at the same time the character is just such a one dimensional character, I completely get why he's like that and I love it but I just can't like a character like that. I love Perturabo and Magnus, especially for their relationships with each other, both were outcasts among most of the primarchs, they had a love of learning and inventing, they both had massive tempers and had a sense of arrogance around them, yet they were so different in how they did everything, Perturabo had no psychic power but was an unrivalled genius in the physical sciences and conventional strategy, whereas Magnus's true talent lay in sorcery and using the warp to circumvent his enemies ways of war completely, even their appearances seemed to challenge each other, with Perturabo being like a dark iron statue, whereas Magnus was ever changing. The few interactions we see with them are amazing. They're definitely my favourite traitors

I like (hate) how the fun fact about Ferrus Manus isn’t even about the man himself, but about Fulgrim’s relationship with / outlook towards him, and about a bunch of clones, which as mentioned elsewhere in lore (and covered by MajorKill) are only ever at best a shadow of the original due to lack of warp-infused secret sauce from the emperor’s recipe. Like, I’m not even an Iron Hands fan, but the dude has so much potential for character development, it’s starting to look kinda brain-dead by GW / Black Library for not just hiring a good writer and giving them the brief: “this guy punched a dragon and got special metal arms, he’s insanely good at building shit, now go write his whole backstory.” Like, even more than Perturabo, he’d be perfect to go on some side quest during the Crusade or Heresy involving Dark Age of Technology shit, AI, interacting with the Leagues of Votann, maybe a prelude encounter with the Necrons. Hell, have him chance to meet up with Trazyn in which they eventually discuss Ferrus’ theories of how it might’ve actually been possible to return the Necrons to an organic form, but then Ferrus suddenly gets an urgent transmission to report with his legion to Isstvan V, the end.
GW really needed to do a full "setting reset" when they decided to make the Primarchs actual beings, instead of trying to work backwards. Failing that, they needed to do a "First Great Crusade" setting, NOT the Horus Heresy, to truly set the stage for the Primarchs and their Legions. And give them time to really flesh things out - like why Ferrus Manus is often considered so pivotal to the Primarchs that whoever had him was going to "win". And time to sit back and go "Waitaminute... that's really effing DUMB." for things like the findings of Angron and Mortarion, to set up the reveal of Alpharius being the first-found (imagine having a non-descript Legionnaire accompanying Custodes or the Emperor at strange times, being personally commanded by the Emperor or Valdor, and even at times giving orders to Custodes? And having that character being referred to only by a Rank for something like 20 books, before it's revealed it's Alpharius?), and to truly give depth to the characters who fell to Chaos?
But... alas. Hopefully others have learned from GW's mistakes.
I feel like there is so much overlap in his skills with Dorn, Perturabo, and Vulcan. I think that’s probably why he doesn’t get much focus compared to his brothers.
If you ask me, Iron hands and Ferrus manus should just embody the grim dark badass side of 40k, just make Ferrus a Hercules like figure
I wouldnt call Lion's perception of the emperor the most true, He is practically seeing himself in his perception. Which is supported by his HH ego and that everyone sees the emperor as what they want to see him as. Only one that has made Emperor uneasy with his perception was Corvus. He described how emperor looked back on terra and it made emperor uneasy like he had hit too close to home.
Source out of curiosity
@@Allen667sjja if you mean about Corvus, it should be in his primarch Novel, its not that Corvus managed to see through the Emperor's illusion, it was that he somehow managed to remember the time he was still in the gestation pod and see the emperor without his glorious aura on maybe since the emperor was alone with a bunch fetuses in a tube he loweres his guard, it is hinted that this might be his true form cause the emperor wasnt happy about it when Corvus told him this.
Holy kick-ass
The lion wore black armour during HH, so probably wasn't just seeing himself.
@@tomross4816 you miss the point. During HH lion sees the emperor who looks like himself but older wearing an emerald plate. Something "coincidentally" he ends up wearing now older and wearing an emerald plate after his powernap. He himself matches the description he saw the emperor as.
Guilliman was also a *HUGE* mama's boy towards his adoptive mother, Tarasha Euten. He even visited her regularly even after he joined the Imperium and asked her for advice. She was still alive by the time of the Heresy, as being the foster mom of a Primarch gave her access to the best Imperium healthcare!!!
Always figured the Lion was seeing a reflection of himself since the Primarch are aspects of the Emperor.
Yet he saw the truest vision of the Emperor.
@@starhammer5247 Thats just major headcanon. Lion thinks he is right... Always. until WH40K return when he has started to really reflect on the matter and got to terms that he was wrong about alot of things. He thinks Emperor looks like him. But he doesnt. Emperor looks like how you want you to see him. Corvus is the only one who has made the emperor uneasy by bypassing the visual veil and telling him how he looked on terra before scattering.
just to add to the mindfuckery of the visual veil of the emperor, Lion sees the emperor as a hooded old man with emerald plate armor, Lions current look in WH40K is hooded old man with emerald plate armor. He absolutely did not see the true visage of the emperor.
@@_NutcasE_ The Lion told absolutely no one what he saw. I don't recall a single lore instant where he told anyone what he saw when he looked upon the Emperor and it was not the Lion who said that he saw the truest version. It was the lore saying that. It was the lore itself, it was not the Lion, no one said anything about his viewpoint, it was the book itself. Also, it said nothing about the Emperor looking like him, it just said that he saw a robed figure in green armour and did not see his face. The Lion has never worn green, not once. Even his recent appearance does not show him in green armour. The Lion has always worn black.
@@starhammer5247 You are wrong, Lion describes to himself what the emperor looks like. and Official GW art depicts him in green plate. Hell Son of the Forest depicts him in green emerald plate so dark it might fool someone as black. So you shot yourself on the foot. READ THE NOVELS NOT REDDIT.

I hope Angron gets a clone too. Maybe his soul left him after he got the nails.
Or after his ascension to daemonhood, which would make sense, his soul was removed and the gap was filled with some chaos shit
Calm Clone Primarch Angron vs Angry Demon Angron would be an interesting fight
Given that the fulgrim clone had it's proper soul, despite Daemon fulgrim still being alive, it's possible
“Alpharious is More obsessed by looking smart and unpredictable than actually making intelligent moves” this got me 😂
5:23 That's actually really, really sad if you think about it. Fulgrim worships Slaneesh, the prince of pleasure and excess. He has his own pleasure planet and could have basically whatever. Sex, drugs, food, riches and probably things we can't even think of. But when offered that what he wants so badly is his brother back.
So what we’re saying is that somewhere in the ultramarines armory there’s a super hectic set of terminator armor for Guilliman?
Do a video on the chief librarian from each legion.
This is just a really great idea for a video
Here's a funfact I recently learned about my fav Primarch. Corvus doesn't actualy like poetry because it reminds him too much of the slave songs the people sung back in the mines of Lycaeus, now Deliverance.
As of lately i have seen more and
more people saying they like corvus the most

Angron really was screwed by being dumped on Nuceria. Paladin Angron sounds so cool!
Daemon Corvus is so badass and him being that trusted by Big E makes me love Corvus even more. But don't forget how only he, of all his brothers, knows the Emperor's secret knock, "shave and a haircut, two bits."
*Perturabo playing Tabletop 40k with his sons is both sweet and amusing.*
He most certainly would kill any of his son, who won over him.
Lion does not see Big E as he truly is that is just Major headcanon. thus far only primarch who has been teased to see Emperor in his true form is Corvus Corax who made emperor uneasy when he tells how he sees the emperor and the emperor gets uneasy about it. basicly he gets uncomfortable that someone can see through his layers. Lions description suits himself which fits his HH ego as he always thinks himself closest to emperor so naturally he sees the emperor as himself.
I think the fact that it’s green - the Dark Angels’ post-legion livery - is a big hint that it’s not his complete true-form, but still a lot closer to it than just about anyone else can see. Still badass and reflective of the Lion’s aspect as a sort-of chivalric knightly hunter and slayer of monsters / warp entities. But yeah, regarding what @_NutcasE_ mentions, the scene in the book where the emperor comes down in-person to meet Corax, when he first comes out of his ship he’s sort of flexing / peacocking a little bit by “slightly” ramping up his psychic presence and charisma. All the mortal humans present see a perfect godlike being in the stereotypical idealized human form, emanating unfathomable power, and they can’t help / lose the will to do anything but fall to their knees in awe, hardly being able to withstand gazing directly at him for more than like a second. Meanwhile, Corax only sees just a simple hooded figure, albeit giving off a faint golden aura while he’s actively flexing, but nothing more, and Corax only has to exert a little fraction of his own willpower to be completely resistant to it. He’s immediately sus of the emperor (and in general anyone) who would take away men’s free will, even for good, and it’s for this reason that he uniquely can see the true form and gets told about the warp and stuff. Like, after introductions, the emperor goes into Corax’ tent with him, and they sit and talk for hours, in which the emperor actually takes off his hood and Corax just sees a simple old man. The emperor explicitly says that Corax is pretty much the only person in history who he can just talk to as a fellow man (or where they both at least see each other as). I guess Malcador might be the one other person in this category maybe? I’m not sure. But yeah, tl;dr Corvus Corax’ goth-loner persona is his lowkey greatest primarch superpower.
@@MrHolydoodle Not true at all. Honsu and Perty played together and Perty wanted him to win which he did. It was the opposite actually, he straight up said he would kill Honsu if Honsu lost the game.
@@_NutcasE_it's literally in the book bro. Yes je does.
The Lion couldn't see the Emperor better than his brothers, it was pure vanity on his part. He thought he could, but it was clearly biased, especially with that emerald armor, as we all know Auramite is golden and the Emperor wore an Auric-Adamantine alloy.

Well hes fast as fuck too tho..
some scorch on your wings just looks even more badass tho
That's a way to get shot and cut into pieces by big daddy Sanguinius and his little gremlins
He definitely uses his wings to fly. Not sure of the lore that says he doesn't, but it's in the siege of terra books when he's thinking about the intricate design of them whilst flying.
So tempted now to convert my Ultramarine army with Guilliman dressed as Horus and the legion as Lunar Wolves
People can talk all they like about which Primarch can do what, or best who....but Corax is a tier above them all. He saw anything and everything for exactly what it is, including the emperor, horus, and chaos. He only picked fights when he knew he could personally win, or without losing too many of his own marines. Emps trusted him above all the others. When Corax went into the eye and said he would hunt and kill all Chaos including his brothers, we should take his word for it.
Would be nice to see you cover Gulliman's reaction to how codex compliant some of his sons are to the codex after he awoken.
It'll be hilarious how some of his sons treated his codex more like a Bible than a tactical guide
I like to imagine that Angron, even as an undamaged paladin version of himself, would still reject the Emperor after he goes to a battlefield and magically experiences the secondhand suffering of every enemy of the Emperor killed. He'd experience all the pain, would reject the cruelty of the Imperium, and potentially join his two unknown brothers in the list of expunged primarchs. I think this would be likely since even with his nail-brained form, he often thought about how cruel the Imperium was, mentioning how for every tyrannical evil world he encountered, there'd be ten innocent worlds begging to be left alone. So even in ragemode he felt bad for his actions, so loving empath Angron would feel even worse. There's also the fact that he'd only really ever experienced the cruelty of humankind in the gladiator pits, aside from that Eldar kill team who likely wouldn't exist in this alt-timeline considering they weakened him enough to be captured.
The only opposition I can think of to this theory is the existence of Vulkan and the nature of Space Marine brainwashing. Vulkan is super nice yet also the guy who turned an Eldar child into pavement jam, and the fact that Space Marines can fall to Chaos but not Tau brainwashing makes me wonder if the Primarchs were genetically instilled with a hatred for Xenos, though even Horus was willing to negotiate with the Kinebrach and Interex so that theory might be less plausible
Huh, I never thought of that, excellent theory
people focus on the eldar child part but not the constant pain, torture and mental agony vulkan was put through by curze= and people also ignore the fact that he felt heavy remorse and disgust towards himself after in moments of clarity
@@anirudhashok3332 he also burnt down an entire planet of peacefully coexisting Eldar Exodites and human survivors of a spacecraft crash who worshipped the Eldar as their saviors and gods. The Exodites rarely let people peacefully live on their planets, so Vulkan destroyed a one in a million opportunity to build better relations with the Eldar just because the human's worship and love of the Eldar made them refuse the Imperium's offers
Also the Kurze stuff happened after the child incident, since it was Kurze who ordered his Marines to open fire into the crowd, and Vulkan despised him for that. So the Kurze stuff doesn't really affect his actions with the child. And while he did regret the child-splatting it didn't really alter his view on Xenos, he just sulked about losing his temper before moving on to other things
@@eg_manifest510 understood

Angron fell so that Sanguinius could soar. he was the consolation prize to Khorne, tho it's hard to say that the empire would have been better off with their roles reversed. as scary as daemon prince Angron might be, Sanguinius certainly would have been much much worse.
Wouldn't Sanguinius most likely have fallen to Nurgle, not Khorne? At least that's what is the most talked about option, including the Dornian heresy
@@kekkoinen lol be real. do we really think the guy named after blood that represents honourable combat but also unending bloodlust was gonna go to Nurgle?
Sanguinius represents Khorne's duality of being more than any other primarch and Nurgle's whole deal is stagnation and decay.
Sanguinius would have been either Khorne or Slaanesh. Never heard any one suggest Nurgle until now. Khorne for the Blood Angels red thirst and near berserker tendencies. Slaanesh for Sanguinius trying to change his legion from the violence obsessed killers into artists and artisans. Seriously, I'm trying to wrap my head around the Nurgle angle but I just don't see it. The angle I see would be "acceptance that you are broken" but that still really leans more into the Khorne side than Nurgle.
@@deltatea3192 yeah i just see Nurgle as being complacency and acceptance of death and collapse, and there's just not a lot of Primarchs that naturally go that way. even Morty had to essentially be "tricked" into it out of compassion for his soldiers, and if Sanguinius was gonna go that way (deal to ease the suffering of his comrades) it seems like Slaneesh or Khorne have the most direct route to easing the suffering of their eternal thirst.
@@entropicflux8849 I think it would be an acceptance of his wings which he had problems with, Nurgle would not give a shit about the matter, he would accepted with his faults and all
Day 2 of asking Majorkill to narrate Alpha Legion lore while drunk.
Shame that even though the Emperor trusted Corvus Corax, Raven Guard were still shafted for most of GW history until recent years
It'd be cool if you sited which book these things came from so I can check them out. I know the Perturabo thing comes from Angel Exterminatus and those war games were sweet
From what I read in the Corax anthology, it seems like Corax was able to see the emperors true from when he arrived on deliverance
Awesome corax being awesome
4:56 “The ancient hatred between Goths and Emos.” As a Goth myself (and a follower of Curze), this is incredibly accurate!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I will point out, however, that Corax is the Emo one. His “sable brand” that he passed on to his sons was far more of an emo trait than anything Konrad did.
Its canon now. Corax is the goth kid and Kurz shops at Hot Topic.
ngl you showing the side by side of oily to not oily gotta be the most effective form of advertisement, if i had more money i'd be sold
Whilst Vulcan may have felt a disdain for Horus; Corvus was the one to truly see past Horus’ facade
It makes sense that the emperor's armor is actually green because as we all know green is the best color
The Lions description of the emperor sounds very close to the watchers
"HEY I SHOT YOU! CALL YOUR HITS!"
_(Ultramarine not moving due to gaping wound and loss of hearts)_
Bobby G: "Ok Who The *FUCK* changed it to *LIVE ROUNDS!* "
_(light bluish space marine sweats)_
I would very much like to see some new Daemon Corax material.
New video idea:
Do a video on Gregor eisenhorn. Im too lazy to read the books and if i did i'd prolly be asleep by the time i flipped the sixth page.
Fun fact: Dorn must constantly be on zoloft or restrict his emotions because if he let loose at all, the energy released would be catastrophic to unknown levels(think blackbolt from marvel) and his personality was molded by the political climate and various deadly lifeforms of his home planet. Literally if you showed emotion or generated it there was a 90% that you died immediately from people trying to protect themselves or aliens(were essentially living mood rings) looking for a snack.
I don’t know if you telling the truth or not.
Alpharius wanted too look smart yeah but he was also in command of one of the most effective legions during the hh as they brought in the most plants into compliance in the shortest amount of time. And that is just with him messing around to make it more interesting.
With the fewest casualties, but not the shortest amount of time. Alpharius would regularly take months longer than necessary taking over planets because he preferred more intricate, challenging and riskier plays that resulted in fewer casualties for his soldiers.
I kinda like the idea of Alpharius being a bit of a fuck-up because he demands to play strategies the most overly complicated way possible, even to a detriment
It's like a metaphor for people who cake themselves up with so many layers of irony that they end up forgetting their true selves
Sanguinius even wondered himself how in the hell he flies because his wings are far to small to support his weight.
Another fun fact. The great Kahn picked up a leviathan dreadnought with one hand and threw it over a battlement
Sanguinious doesnt use wings to fly? He is officially a magic chicken
Dude was playing 4d chess...by himself, while everybody elsr was playing rugby 😂😂.
This made my day.
Konrad and Corvus being related to the age old enmity between goths and emos was fucking hilarious, that was fucking black gold as it were lol
6:41 So you’re telling me that Ultramarines LARP?
Video starts at 1:38
Vulkan is traveling the galaxy on a conventional ship going from feudal world to feudal world teaching the locals how to farm all the way up to build space ships, he leaves to start again.
Bruh it'd be SO sicc if u did a "What if Angron never received the butcher's nails/became the paladin he was meant to be?"
And damn, I did not know that about my best boi Corvus, that is very pog!! I wonder how he'd fare in a fight against each of his brothers?
Rogal did kinda lie in saturnine by sending like an army to defend a port he intended to lose, just saying ^^
With the release and great success of "Warhammer: The Old World" Is there any chance you'll do some warhammer fantasy videos since you used to express your great fondness over it? I think it'd help your channel grow by attracting a wider audience.
I feel personally attacked by that alpharius line. Never seen my approach to gaming so well summarised.
Please make a video about Tau Navy, their strategy and battles they fought against Imperium Navy.
...Fulgrim having wives at, like, 10 years old explains a lot, tbh
nah, by that age the guy would be an adult in mind, primarchs grow up fast
Fun fact: scientists now think that the hollow bones found in birds, many sauropod and theropod dinosaurs, and horses of all things, are more to do with sufficient oxygenation of blood rather than density or weight savings. So Sangy was just not dedicated enough to fly. A few extra hours of cardio a day and maybe those wings would have been worth a damn
Going by most art of him they're still too small for his size to actually generate enough lift for him to fly, he could probably glide decently well with them when lightly, or wholly, unarmored though.
If there was ever a plot line where one of Fabius’s clones where released Angron without the nails would probably be the most interesting to me.
"...and me being a man of reason and science..." immediately made me think "it's the Emporer in another disguise! No wonder he's ripped!" xD
I like the death guard on Morty's left with a smiley face on his chest, he's the cutest little traitor
How the other daemon primarchs would or have reacted to the Lions return?
That description of Alpharius is probably the most accurate thing.
"Oh going for a crash ball off the top of the lineout, how predictable Dorn, that's why I'm here ready and waiting to receive you and turn you over, wait, oh shit"
Actually looks up just before being ran over and flattened by Dorn
The idea of Bobby G cosplaying as Horus is just hilarious. How uncomfortable must the other Astartes have been done up as Sons Of Hours and Emperors Children? Lmao!
Superb video as always @majorkill.
Could you make a video dedicated to the Navigators, the major houses, their politics, relation to the overall Imperium and factions, etc
I’d like to see how End Times Archaon squares up against each 40k faction leader
Now I'm picturing someone trying to play an over complicated game of chess in the middle of a Rugby pitch while a game is being played.
i knew:
Fulgrim's
Perturabo's
Leman's
Sanguinius's
Ferus's
Angron's
Horus's
Lorgar's
Vulcan's
Corvus's
yay! more than half!
That alpharius metaphor is literally perfect
Majorkill could we get a run down on the major battles of the unification wars and the solar reclamation war please. Great content by the way back into the hobby now 25 years of buying this.
I recall when King Blueberry dressed up as Horus that he asked a marine why they lost the battle.
The marine said "Because you would be with us."
This is just a little extra lore.
what book is this
@@anirudhashok3332
It should have been a short story in the Horus Heresy 16, Age of Darkness.
@@El_Presidente_5337 I read it already thanks
You forgot to mention something about the II and XI primarchs
Corvus:'I am what I always have been, 'I am vengeance incarnate. I am justice delivered. This place, beyond the veil, has revealed what we all are. Underneath the veneer of humanity our father crafted for us, we are of the warp.'
Lorgar: 'Have you come to make oath to the powers that are your true creator?'
Corvus: 'No. I swore to destroy all Chaos taint from the galaxy. You will be the first fallen brother to die beneath my blades.'
Lorgar:'I am not the creature you fought at Isstvan'
Corvus:'Nor am I!'
So glad Corvus was allowed to know the truth of the Warp hands down one of my favorite short stories.
I love Corvus being fucking Biblically Accurate Raven Daemon Shit, i wonder how would all Primarchs look like if they embraced thier true power and achieved "True Potential"
@BearerOfTheBlackRage if that happened, then chaos would've been screwed big time
@@dreademperor2094 Yeah, Imagine Hawk Boi on Full Potential as some Eldritch Angelic Deity made out pure light
@@TalosValcoranOfTheFirstClaw I can imagine the chaos gods panicking as a result
@@dreademperor2094 I imagine Lion looking like more badass and terryfing version of Watchers in the Dark, like a hooded figure, in dark gloomy Armor, maybe some angelic but Black wings and some bigass Sword. We don't know much about nature of Primarchs, would be interesting to finally see what they're really capable of when using true 100% of thier Potential
Fun facts about the 2nd and 11th Primarchs:_____________
Bro, you been on the sunbeds with that golden glaze you got
Video idea: Which Astartes legion would have the best synergy with each other?
yes
Probably the Emps children and the Luna wolves since they fought a lot together when the third legion was the size of a modern chapter
" ... dude was playing 4D chess by himself while everyone else is playing rugby ... " is my new favourite phrase.
Didn’t Corvus see the big E as well when they first met?
My father is in fact, VERY hilarious.
A intresting video to see would be some lore about Possessed marines.
Oh, Warhammer. The only universe in which we have to consider the ethical implications of a 5 to 10-year-old man-sized demigod getting laid. Never change.
That would be something to see a redeemed Angron fighting Deamon Angron
The lion once failed to notice alpharius as he was blending in with a squad. But Dorn is able to detect him
Perturabo is probably the most overdramatic of all the primarchs, multiple times he set up scenarios for no reason except to not just win an argument or battle, but to do so in humiliating fashion. Smacking Fulgrim into a game board and launching a nuke directly at Vulkan are some highlights.
I still haven't received the Big E i've orderd. When will they be finished? An update would be nice...
"We don't have an ozone layer!"
Talk about grimdark
It has come to my attention that i always like your vids, must be the lore.
About the Peter Turbo part, I did actually hear a little about it because of that time where he smashed Fulgrim's face into a titan mini. The "... and yet I'm the one holding the hammer" part, right?
the last line was so funny xd cool video as usual señor majorkill
