I would genuinely want to see a Space Hulk with nothing inside of it. A group of Space Marines running around, scratching their heads and wondering where the hell their enemies were, only to leave utterly confused and disappointed.
They might be leaving utterly confused and disappointed about not finding any enemies of the Emperor to purge but they will be doing so in their brand new space hulk. Lol
OMG I’d love this as a story BUT the moral/end of the story would be the realisation amongst the marines, as the leave the Space Hulk, was that their true victory was the friends they made along the way…
Imagine that. And then it turns out the Tyranids were just hiding. So, when they take the Space Hulk to a port, all hell breaks loose
@@Siege181 don't bring the alpha legion into this....
I love some of the space hulk stories where there's some insane tech or relic within the hulk, enemies or not. There have been some good ones. I remember one where the hulk had ancient (human made) heretical AI intelligence at its core, and there were like 3 factions fighting amongst the marines (I think chaos and dark Eldar there for some nefarious reason) but I have ZERO recall on what anthology, book of shorts, etc that it came from. I've read so much 40k over the years I'm getting to where I've forgotten as much as I remember.
Half genestealer priest: "And there... The emperor upon his golden thro~"
Black Templar "So you have chosen death"
An excellent tale indeed, it contains both killing and praising the Emperor. Truly warms both my hearts.
Killing in the name of the God emperor and praying in the name of the God emperor are my two and only favorite things to do in the 40th millennium. By the emperor those may be the only two things I do can't really remember the last time I ate for killing all the heretics and xenos in the name of the emperor.
I absolutely love the Templars. And their reverence in this story is portrayed brilliantly.
And I believe that the context of it all makes their behaviour very fitting. It's a ship whose passengers were devout followers of the Imperial creed and it's not like the Marines were in an intense combat situation.
They may be a bunch of religious zealot hard arses, but you just can't help but like them. Go Team Sigismund!!!
Never clicked so fast. Black Templars are by far my favourite chapter
They're in my top 5 as well. When I got into 40k it was the third edition starter box: black templars. Still easily the best art on a starter box ever.
Same
PURGING WITH MY KIN
Brother?!
Must be a fellow lunatic.
Adelard just pulled the same move on the Genestealer Priest as that Astartes Captain did to the possessed Inquisitor in the "Astartes" project. Awesome.
Cleanse the unclear, purge in the name of the Emperor
Pp
Old Adelard was a pretty bad mthfkr......to take on a fkn BROODLORD!! That's basically a pure-strain genestealer named Banner getting pissed and turning into the genestealer Hulk. I think Broodlords stats have changed since this story LOL
Hmm reason for tau interests for space hulks: "Hey free real estate! Let's investigate then put these vast materials to use!"
16:49 i can just imagine the Terminator punching the hybrids head off without even looking at him when he called that thing the emperor lmao
Oh God. Imagine the nausea caused by gravity randomly giving out in certain areas.
Space Marines don't really suffer from gravity related nausea unless in the most extreme of situations. Drop Pod launches don't even phase them. The only time i've heard of a Space Marine puking is due to Nurgle, Unsanctioned Warp translocations, and on purpose to burn shit. Space Hulk grav fluctuations would probably only be anywhere between g(0) to g(1) but it would be cool to write about them automatically calculating differences in bolt round trajectory, movement, and combat techniques as the gravity quickly swapped back and forth. Maybe have them complaining that the autosenses in the armour react too slowly and how they have to turn them off to calculate instantly in their own trans human minds.
In one of the Gaunt's Ghosts novels there's a part where the ship they were being transported on suffered some damage and due to malfunctions and the gravity was intermittent and in some places pointed in the wrong direction when it flickered back on so dudes would fall onto the ceiling and get smashed and it sounded p confusing and messed up because they couldn't tell until you got there which end was up. Similar thing happened in the Blackstone Fortress novel.
@@doomguy9049 they were disoriented in Gaunt's Ghost 3 or was it 2 where they dealt with space folding xeno race.
@@boartank yeah I was thinking of the one where they end up lost in the warp for a decade and then getting attacked and boarded when they fall back into real space, think it’s the second to last book but idk
The big difference, is devout pilgrims vs base humans.
base humans in their eyes, are one word short of being declared heretics.
a ship full of devout pilgrims have proven themselves, since they are on a crusade in the name of the emperor. even if they are not armed like they are.
yeah i can see that
To be fair, the Templars do start to have a lot more respect for the mortal guardsmen as the Helsreach crusade progresses during the story.
This did show a side of the black Templars I would have never thought possible.
Even the Warmaster himself is a fan of the Black Templars.
*_PUUUUURGING WIIIIITH MY KIIIIIIIN_*
MY SEEEEELF INFLICTED WOOOOUNDS, THEY WIIIIILL NOT HEEEEEAL
Check out "The Glorious Tomb" by Guy Haley sometime. Got my Wife to listen with me on an extended ride, and by the end she was so moved she'd gotten a little teary eyed. Totally not out of boredom either. It's simultaneously one of the best audiodramas, Black Templar short stories AND dreadnought stories committed to the page.
THIS COMMENT ^. I’ve never had an audio drama ever move me to tears before. It was a masterpiece.
I'll listen to It battle brother.
Dude that is so awesome that your wife listened to a Warhammer 40K story about the black Templars let alone got teary-eyed by the end of it that is an awesome wife you got there good deal, The Emperor would be proud.
Helsreach was my first foray into the templars and Grimaldus was one hell of a bad ass, and I really like their aesthetic of templar knights, and I love hearing more stories into them. With their prayer over the fallen, I can honestly see it as a thing some of the templars would do, not all knights are the same, whereas some would see themselves on a higher plain then the regular citizens, some I would say would show some respect for those fallen who had that same devout faith that they did in the god emperor.
God I love black templars
They love you too battle brother AND they show It by purging the filthy chaos & xenos.
I with Rho 100%! We need bigger and longer Space Hulk stories ASAP!
Is it just me or does the title seem like a Scooby doo episode
Now lets see who's under this broodlord mask gang?
Either that or a Harry Potter novel.
Brother Scooby what is your position.
ZOINKS; LOOK AT THOSE HERETICS
@@ARandomCustodian jajajajajaa Shaggy i am pinned here!
That's a neat twist. Genestealers and a genestealer cult.
Dangers of plundering wayward space hulks. Either the genestealers get you, or the genestealers get you.
This reminded me of ragnar blackmane and his encounter with tyranids in the space hulk. It was my first ever warhammer series that i read and i love it and re-read it now and then...
Stopping to pray felt right. This wasn't cowardly guardsmen but, me and women who took up the same oath as the Black Tenplars to bring the light and wrath of the Emperor to the unbelieving and heretic alike. These were their "kin" of purpose.
PURGING WITH MY KIN
Indeed battle brother.
THIS BLOODSHED SO SURREAL
This is a linking park song now XD
We are absolute lunatics
@@alek7998 GORE ON REVVED CHAINSWORDS
Yeah...gotta agree with ya...genestealers are getting old, id like to personally see some of the minor xenos inhabiting a space hulk....some of them like the Hrud or Ambuls are pretty terrifying too, hell even a yuvath or Dark age AI
The Rak,gol , they should involve some of the minor Xenos races for variety if not because they are cool for example.... The Worm that Walks!
Love a good spooky 'Aliens/Event Horizon' 40K tale.
"They mostly come out at night..... mostly"
Thinks to self: "Is this where the Furry mutation began?"
The answer Is always the same, PURGE IT WITH HOLY FIRE!!!
AVENGE ME BROTHER!!!
@@platthepollutypus BROTHA, AVENGE MEH!!!
@@Gunnberg85 I Endure!
Gross lol
As you said, be sieged, and walking through a space hulk set your mind differently. Praying for the dead is not out of character, on the contrary, it fits perfectly.
Love this story. Guy Haley understands the setting very well. Glad he is keeping it grim dark. And the Black Templar's are epic as always.
Every time the Templars come up, I just cant help but think of how fucking awesome the Armageddon series by Boylan was.
Love your videos! They're so great on a long car trip.
Adalard??? The dreadnought invictus potence???? Is it him before he got retired?
This glorious tomb. The main character is the dreadnought invictus potence. He was a sword brother and castallan before being inturred
HOLY EMPEROR!!!!!!! I didn’t make that connection!
Thanks for making this video. Great story that keep me locked in the entire time. Like you, I feel the Templars stopping to pray over the martyred dead to be very fitting for them.
I really hope that the black templars get their own codex supplement soon and that their sword brethren units and sword brethren terminators are reflected to show their amazing lore
I want this too, for conversión purposes though but still, tired of ultras
Got the feeling we'll just be a supplement in the Imperial Fists Codex Supplement. Again. That's what happened with 8th. I'd love to be surprised though.
@@mouseketeery i dont want to admit it but i think so too, that and worse they will glaze over our own specific lore and unique units to just make us somewhat playable. If sword brethren get decent buffs then i guess ill be happy but i really want our chapters culture to shine out once again
@@mouseketeery dont we all battle brother? GW should really step up for His customers and fans.
This is the most perfect lore ever made. Thank you sir.
This channel always impresses. Absolutely earned every single subscriber.
Great story I also laughed when Templars insta killed after reacing the broodlord it was like "we heard you enough dammit" its just so space marine like attitude lol
Have you read/listened to "The Glorious Tomb" by Guy Haley? It tells the ultimate fate of Adelard of the Black Templars.
I have not, but thanks for bringing it to my attention! I'll definitely be checking it out.
I would really like to hear your take on Lukas the Trickster or Ciaphas Cain. Those Characters grew in my apreciation a lot lately.
If you enjoy listening on audio books about space hulks and space marines fighting gene stealers, then I highly recommend 'Hunger'. It is a great audiobook about flesh tearers fighting gene stealers and gabriel seth going one on one with the brood lord.
Im on it, Seth is a Badass !
@@Duppyman695 He sure is and Im gonna be honest with you. The audiobook is far better than any movie I've ever seen. ITS 200% bad ass!
LOTR nerd: In the books, Boromir did not say "this is a tomb." It was Frodo. ;)
Well akshually...
He also doesn't get stabbed in moria by a troll, but by an orc.
@@johnathanblackwell9960 NEEEERD!!! ;)
@@Timasion Indeed, but if I really wanted to show my nerd card I'd bring up Old Man willow popping up in the fellowship and not in two towers, or ya know Tom Bombadil in general. Or really pick apart that abomination they called the Hobbit
@@johnathanblackwell9960 Oh, don't get me started. I refused to watch the Hobbit. That was a pure money grab by Peter Jackson. The boot is smaller than the Fellowship of the Ring and they stretched it into three movies? Even the LotR 2nd & 3rd movies got me irritated. I could rant all day about that.
Dorn's Angry Boy's FTW
Dorn : They are absolutely lunatics.
The fact that the gift was from "RECLUSIARCH Ali (?)" and the video is about the Black Templars makes it so much better!
Amazing short story
Them stopping to give prayer is a good touch.
I'd love to see a space hulk story where they find the genestealers dead and the hulk occupied by something else (not daemons). Maybe a creature with one of the halo artifacts or the Hrud.
The Worm that walks, the Maggot Men !
GLORIOUS!! THE BEST OF THE BEST !! THE BLACK TEMPLARS!!
Every black templar has His day cousin.
Certainly the greatest bigots amongst the Imperium.
@@chrisbennett6236 certainly not jajaja, never heard of the inquisition? The high lords? The oficio assasinorum? They are only the most well known.
@@chrisbennett6236 Get bent !
@@chrisbennett6236 Er...this is 40k, not "Diversity, Inclusion & Equity" training, you muppet!
I wish I had your collection if novels to read.
and he's back at it again, well down bruh! @Wolf Lord Rho
perfect content with the perfect voice great job please keep it up
Wolf Lord vídeo is always a good video
I was waiting for some Minotaur vs Custodes action but hey Black Templars are good too
As much as I love the dark angels this story would have made a more engaging space hulk FPS game
Imagen being a civilian and finding out that you are worth less than a door on a space hulk
I’d love to see a dark mechanicum encounter in a space hulk.
Rho - the Templars! Awesome
Yes more 20 min video pls
Not that this wasnt epic, cuz it was epic! But where is the follow up on the high lords betraying guilliman? Im looking forward to that
I feel like this guy should review the all guardsman party.
A Nice Gentle Peaceful Trip With Me and The Four Boys

Black Templars are my favourites. Blood Ravens a close second.
After watching bunch of sci-fi movies and reading plethora of sci-fi books, I have an advice for anyone encountering derelict space vessel: Open fire.
Seems like almost every time terminators are sent into a space hulk the majority of them get bodied.
Great story, not sure about the Templars they sound badass, I think a spacehulk story where 4-5 different races show up because something inside everybody wants and inside a terrible secret and an even more Horrific foe
The Lamenters & the Baleful Heart Space Hulk
If you want a fix of an amazing audio drama that takes place inside a derelict space hulk with an unknown enemy that isn’t Genestealers, then give “Alone” a shot. It follows a young Raven Guard librarian through what seems like the scenes from Deadspace or the movie Event Horizon. The 40k Audio drama series are extremely hit or miss, but I would say that Alone is on about on par with The Glorious Tomb.
I'll look for It and give It a reading battle brother.
I read that as The black templars and the space husky mystery and I thought it was a black templar and space wolf team up for a second.
I was thinking about how perfect Black Templars are to raid space hulks, but then I thought, Imagine if loyalist World Eaters still existed and how perfect they would be to clear Space Hulks of wayward xenos....
I've never liked the Black Templars. As Sigismund wasn't a blood son Dorn nor are the Templars. Plus they make the rest of the Imperium, including the Inquisition, seem welcoming and compassionate.
But this is a Wolf Lord Rho video so I'm going to check it out.
What do you mean Sigismund wasn't of Dorn's blood?
@@TheImmoth he was not of His geneseed but of the other censured Legions wich were merged into Dorns & Ultras alledgedly.
I don’t believe that I think there dorns sons
@@emperorschampion8471 the black templars aré its just Sigismund who Is not, by the words of your genesire my cousin, not that It matters though, we aré all battle brothers.
Or part of a pilgrimage fleet discovered in a hulk with the numeral XI plastered all over it.
Sweet
Space hulk alt fight stories Ork's vs Stealers
TOIME TO COLLECT DEM TEEF! ...mind the pointy bug bits.
Once again UA-cam doesn't notify me. We'll recommend a 7 year old video of some guy playing video games but not any Warhammer content. Non of the Warhammer channels I subscribe too, do I get notifications from. Not one
Work from the heretics indeed, they shall be purged brother...and dont doubt it...THEY WILL BE PURGED
Anyone read the iron snakes novel . I enjoyed it very much and sfinely would like to hear from them more
Now this is a topic I want to know I didn't get understand the story since I'm busy killing tyranids
Keep.it up brother.
purging with my kin
Kind of wish they entered a Cold War between daemon cultists and genestealer cultists
It has been used before its call Battlestar Galactica
I think it is in character for them. The vast majority of baseline humans are little more than meat. However, these people were on a religious mission. Something that the highly religious templars would appreciate. Therefore, they were doing the emperor's work, and thusly had more value.
I’d like to read a Space Hulk story where a confirmed demonic occurrence calls in the Grey Knights. Maybe on a former pilgrimage ship? Or maybe an Astartes warship from during the Great Crusade?
The grey knights were not formed until the siege of the palace during the Horus heresy. When malcador put Titan in the warp it didn’t return until after the great scouring when horus’ forces were retreating into the eye of terror. I do agree a story about grey knight reinforcements needing to be called in for a space hulk or pilgrimage fleet battle would be nice too

Slaneesh thirst It seems.

'Suffer not the unclean to live, suffer not the alien, suffer not the usurper of worlds!’
‘And vengeance shall be the Emperor’s - Saint Taphistis’
‘…He is my courage. I will trust and be not afraid. The God-Emperor is my strength and my song…’
'The God-Emperor was a warrior; a leader not a savior. He encouraged men to stand up for themselves; with courage, bolter and steel to oppose the enemies of man.'
Scions of Sigismund! Black Templar's! Warriors of the Eternal Crusade! Knights of Dorn! Stand fast!
Didnt u put this out bout 4/5 days ago ?
13 days of pennance just for doing your job, gotta love black templars!
2 downvotes? *the desire to purge intensifies*
Sorry this is off topic but can someone recommend a assassins guild book, don’t know if there’s any, thanks again
Let them cower in defiance of our righteous fury. They shall despair beneath the wrath of our holy banners. Let them tremble before the might of our unstoppable advance. We shall bring upon them the purity of holy death in the name of the Emperor.
Let them fear us.
Millions of people? Such a small ship. The templar's own ship would be many times larger.
Glory to the first. The black templars pale in comparison to the glorious first
Xenos problems? Try the thunder hammer! It bashes, crashes, and smashes all forms of xenos, heretics, and daemons with one hit.
This rendition of the Templars is well better than ADB's rendition.
I can solutely see them stopping to give prayer for the fallen faithful and pity for having to damage the work of the Emperor.
ADB's stories almost always strawman the antagonist, like he did to Sigismund, it is petty.
I am wondering about a team of terminators defeating scores of genestealers and a broodlord though. . .
The short was great though, good writing, realistic humanity, motivations, and ambiance.
What would space marines bet?
🔥🎸🔥
7 million tonnes? So smaller than a Cobra Destroyer?
The BTs praying for the lost pilgrims isn't out of character to me. In Helsreach, Grimaldus has respect for Yarrick, in part, because of his piety. Perhaps their usual disdain for ordinary humans comes from the perception that they tend to be insufficiently pious. Let's face it, they usually meet soldiers - fight and die for the Emperor in battle, looking for a drink and a leg over on shore leave!
What book is this from?
