    Get in on the Majorkill Christmas Merch drop here : www.majorkill.shop/
    Limited stock
    *note - if you noticed that the T Shirt designs were very large or the singlet designs were slightly misaligned, you aren't tripping, my samples were a bit off however the production merch that we are selling is corrected and follows the size and alignment of the mock ups on the website, so don't worry :)
    There just wasn't enough time to ship me the new samples before this video went out due to tight Christmas deadlines

Some of the death company are rounded up and locked back up after engagements especially the dreadnoughts... surprised you never mentioned how they die from the stress it puts on theor bodies hears exploding ect.

      Primaris are all perfect Marine Sues (Daemonspawn). So, after they hollowed out the Sons of Sanguinius and replaced them with Ultramarines painted red, they eliminated the Death Company.
      And then had the slightest bit of sanity and gave the Daemonic Primaris the faintest vestiges of the Black Rage, because the Death Company is... kind of important to a Blood Angels army.

    I get the impression that Mephiston had time to chill out & calm down from his Black Rage by being trapped under all that rubble. Can’t rage too long being stuck, so he calmed down. No enemies under the rubble, so he had time to come to his sanity & realize he’s not Sanguinius.

    What if the Emperor wasn’t able to reach Nuceria in time to prevent Angron dying from the High Riders? How would having one less available Primarch affect the heresy with more lopsided sides? What would happen to the War Hounds? What would happen to Nuceria? Who do you think would go to Khorne? Or what if Guilliman found Angron before the Imperium found Guilliman?

    • @robertnelson9599
      @robertnelson9599 Місяць тому +9

      The War Hounds would be interesting, since I could see them joining either side. Sanguinius would be a better shape when facing Horus since he did not fight Angron first. The Shadow Crusade would also be different since Lorgar would not focus on helping Angron. Oh yeah, Istvaan 3 would have been shorter since Angron would not fight on the ground.

    • @Rickstartes
      @Rickstartes Місяць тому +6

      Angron's death would have been a net positive for the war hound legion. The legion would have simply been allowed to continue operating as it had been already, or merged with the legion most similar in temperament, namely the blood angels.
      They actually had the largest number of loyalist deployed at Istvaan 3, so they definitely would have remained loyal
      Now if Guilliman had found Angron he would have helped him overthrow the Nucerian tyrants, then tried to remove the butchers nails. Or at least develop a way to weaken their effects. 40k theories made a video on this topic.

      @@Rickstartes The Dornian Heresay has the best "what if" scenario on how Angron would be as a Loyalist basically Horus convinces Big E to actually back up Angron instead of just teleporting him mid battle so Angron becomes on of the most loyal of the Primarchs. Bonus points with them getting to Angron in time so they could safely remove the Butchers Nails.

    Lemartes POV must be ... interesting. He's in the grips of the Black Rage, meaning not only is he mainlining the combat state of Sanguinius during the final battle - he's also getting the visions.
    He's seeing Horus, or other daemons and traitor marines on the flagship. Everyone around him is a daemon, or traitor, of bloody Horus himself. When he tells Astorath he's still good and can keep going, he's seeing Horus. Constantly telling himself "it's not really him, it's not really him, it's not really him."
