  • Imperial Guard, the Hammer of the Emperor is humanity's greatest army that serves the Imperium of Man.
    The proud men and women among the soldiers of this army are armed only with the most basic equipment because arming billions upon billions of guardsmen would not be possible in the cause of events in the 41st Millenium.
    And despite facing terrifying Xenos, vile heretics and anyone that wishes to threaten the Imperium - these men and women withstand all the horrors from the galaxy with the power of their numbers, courage and loyalty being taught from the earliest of years.
    And although the sacrifices are huge in the ranks of the Imperial Guard - it is a proud army devoted to its one and only task...
    'To each of us falls a task. And all the Emperor requires of us Guardsmen is that we stand in line, and we die fighting. It is what we do best: we die standing.'
    General Sturnn, Commander Cadian 412th

    Dear haters of the guard, know this: the Imperium would have never made it to the 41st millenium if it wasn't for the guard.

      The spacemarine would be nothing without the sheer numbers of the guardsmen.

      Absolutely. Also, although there are some mediocre regiments there are some very high quality guard regiments, like the Vostroyan Firstborn, the Steel Legion, the Valhallan Ice Warriors, The Catachan Devils, and, of course, the Cadians. These are all cornerstone regiments in the imperial military forces as a whole.

    • @Zipotricks

      The catachan devils are surely as good as a space marine scout/space marine trainee.

    So, this is it. My final hour has come. It won't be glorious, it won't be majestic. I won't go down winning a war but down in the mud with nothing of the screams of my fellow soldiers to guide me into His light. But you know what...I don't care. I don't need remembrance, I don't need my name inscribed on some warship. I don't seek a glorious death like the space marines. My death will be one of the many, just a number on an endless list.
    For all their might, all their heroism. Those marines forget one thing. That we die standing, doing our duty to the Emperor as all of us must do. We're trained not only to kill but to lay down our lives. And it doesn't matter how many of us fall, there'll always be new boots to replace us. So here we wait, down in the mud. There is no false hope, no optimistic speech. Just a grim determination that's taken a hold of us. Today we'll fight, today we'll die taking those bastards with us. And somehow I just can't stop smiling..

    I don't know why, but hearing this feels me with immense patriotism for simply being human. We might not be as strong as an Ork, as fast as an Eldar, as progressive as the Tau, as adaptable as the Tyranids or resilient like the Necrons, but what does humanity have that those species do not? The God-Emperor of Mankind, and quadrillions of humans ready to die in the name of the best species to grace the cosmos...HUMANITY!

      You know what is even better than that? Humans can become strong as orks, hella fast, if not as fast as an Eldar, the Tau have nothing on DAoT humanity, which wasn't uplifted by the Eldar and far surpassed the Tau's tech level, we may not be as adaptable as the nids, but we're second only to them. We learned our lesson about soulless sentience through the Men of Iron, and we created our diety ~4000 years after we discovered AGRICULTURE. The Eldar, being the only other race who actually made their Gods, needed to get help. We may naturally only possess our incredibly stubbornness and resilience, but hot damn, can we do cool shit.

    i love how this video technically tells the story of a guardsman.
    Starts with a series of propaganda the young man sees, dreaming of glory and victory with patriotic music playing from old vox casters.
    Music becomes real with voice singing, symbolizing his recruitment where he sees his commander give a mighty speech, the young man's dream coming true.
    The video continues with the music growing in power and intensity, showing the guardsman's growth into a veteran, seeing many battles, horrors, as well the various regiments and allies he fights alongside.
    Propaganda interrupts ever now and again, showing how veteran guardsman, now an NCO, don't see them with rose-tinted glasses anymore but still reminds him of what he fights for.
    Then the second to final pic, him charging an Ork, shows how he found the glory he had always dreamed of, sacrificing his life for the Emperor, Imperium, and his fellow guardsman. The last picture, the recruitment poster, shows him made a martyr and propaganda piece, becoming an inspiration for other young recruits to dream of glory and victory as he once had.

      Наш Coветский Союз покоряет весь мир
      Как огромный медведь на Востоке.
      Овцы бродят безцельно, без всяких забот
      А Советский медведь на охоте.
      Наше братство - хорошая жизнь,
      Наша щедрость ни с чем не сравнится.
      Все кто с нами - сильны
      Все кто против, держись
      Чтоб нам всем не пришлось потрудится.
      Все народы, не стоит того
      Что бы мы превратили вас в пепел.
      Благодарны вам, низкий поклон,
      От самой могущеcтвенной nation.

    When ever i watch something like this, it makes me feel that the guard are the most powerful army on the tabletop, why? I dont know why, just to see all those dice roll and demolish a squad of 10 termies with abaddon is funny. Just to watch a lucky dice roll destroy a land raider in the first turn. Having huge amounts of expendable soldiers with so much fire power is fun. I can assure you atleast 50% of all guard players (if not 40k players in general) can agree, guard is a great, powerful army to play.

    • @darkjester53
      @darkjester53 10 років тому +17

      I decided to play with IG because of this little exscript from the previous codex.
      "In the midst of genetically engineered super beings, alien killing machines, warrior mystics and technology that approaches sorcery in its sophistication, the Imperial Guard are mere soldiers.Clad in flak jackets and carrying a lasgun they have to contend with the most terrifying threats,relying on numbers,massed firepower and a bayonet with some guts behind it. As such it is easy to identify with these brave souls and to see in them the qualities of true heroes."
      For the Emperor!

      GreySeer Thanquol As it stands, the IG is the second most powerful unified force in 40K fluff. The orks are more numerous than humans thats true, but humans are the third most numerous in the universe as we know it (after the tyrannids and the orks), that is to say there are litterally quintillions uppon quintillions of humans in the Imperium. Out of this massive population, the IG get a massive recruitment pools. At all times there a litterally quadrillions of guardsmens deployed and quadrillions more in training to replace the losses, and each day there are trillions of losses in the IG.
      The Ig is by far the largest faction in fluff that is united, apart from the tyrannids (and then again the tyrannids fight amongst eachothers sometimes), thousands times larger than any current Waaaaaagh.
      Do you know what is the most powerful faction for now in fluff? Not the nids, not the space marines..
      but the Imperial Navy. An average IOM frigate is a kilometer long huge box of metal with incredibly thick and resistant hull with overlapping void shields capable of sending out terraton of firepower in a minute notice and easily shrugging off terraton level firepower.
      Thats just the frigate. And each warship of the imperium that is larger than a cruiser can destroy an entire planet in a matter of seconds if needed.
      And there are millions of warships in the navy.
      Think about that.

    Honor the Guardsmen, for in their chest beats the heart of a man. He has no special powers, no super strength, no augmentations. His faith lies within the Emperor of Man. He who was born on some forgotten planet in some corner of the galaxy. He is a factory worker, a farmer, a store keeper, a father, a brother, a son. He fights for not just those he loves, but for man kind as well. He has stood the line against those that would destroy the Imperium across the galaxy. He held the line in the imperial palace during the Horus Heresy, he held the line during the black crusade. As Cadia broke, the guardsmen continued to hold the line as the ground under their feet crumbled into space. For ten thousand years the guardsmen has held the line and he will continue to hold it.

He is scared, and will run away for ANY reason ! But, be scared xenos and heretics alike, because he ISN'T ALONE ! United we are strong, and if one Guardsmen, alone, cannot do anything, his regiment united, perfectly used, can stand down the best troops of the universe ! FEAR US, WARRIORS OF THE WORLD !
