Viewer from Belgium here, just wanted to thank you for the hard work. I've been following your work for a bit now after discovering the Astartes fan made chapters which made me want to learn more about this universe. Nobody was making anything of the sort in french, or at least, not with the same quality. So I started listening. I owe you a lot because my english improved drastically thanks to you. Easy to understand, well written, I've learned more listening to your videos for a few months than at school in many years. I'm curious to see what they're going to do with the TV series they have in the making by the same guy who made "The Man in the High Castle". Love your work.
I would think that these videos would be really difficult to understand to a novice English speaker due to some of abstract concepts and complex vocabulary.
So they settle disputes with 1 representative and even then they try to avoid killing each other. That's the most rational and sensible practice/tradition I've ever heard of in 40k.

Millions of crew may seem like a lot, but at the volume density of a Nimitz class carrier a 5 mile long vessel would have a crew complement of 70 million
@@ZontarDow I don't have the dimensions on hand for imperium ships, but I look at pictures of the apocalypse battleship and it seems to be longer than it is wide or tall and much of the tall section of the ship doesn't seem to take up more than half of the length. Probably GW is messing up with the populations aboard like they do with other stats constantly, but I have a hard time thinking 70m can be fit aboard regular combat ships. Maybe mass conveyers or starbases like the Phalanx could get up to these numbers.
I love how deep and almost infinite the universe of 40,000 is. Anything can happen, there is millions upon billions of worlds, so many things, and every piece of lore we see is only a fraction of what there could be.
I hear things like this more often than youd imagine, and its humbling. I know myself how good it is to find content to distract with, glad this helped.

Your videos are absolutely fantastic and have gotten me interested in 40k. I knew absolutely nothing about Warhammer before I came across one of your videos by chance. They're so well made and researched and I can really tell how much effort you put into them. The intro alone for this video is something most other UA-camrs should aspire to have. I'm literally at 1:35 in the video and I'm typing this already. The quality of your videos is unrivaled and I can tell you enjoy making them. I have no idea if you have a day job or if you make these videos full time but I'm guessing you do since I don't see you running ads on these videos. This leads me to believe you make these if your downtime between work and your life which only makes them even more impressive. Your videos have even helped me lose weight by watching them as I run on my treadmill at home because I barely notice 45 minutes go by while watching one. I've lost almost 10kg since the middle of March. Long story short I fucking love these videos and although I've always loved comics, and sci-fi, movies, and video essays and considered myself to be fairly nerdy I never had the slightest interest in 40k till I found you. Keep doing what you're doing because its amazing. I don't care how often you upload whether its once a month or twice a year because its the quality that brings me back. Please don't take this as me trying to constantly hold you to a high standard, everyone has off days and thats fine as long as you enjoy what you do. Thanks a million for the content.
That is a charitable way of saying taken wholesale. The entirety of dune is in some form stolen and recycled in 40k, including the god emperor himself.
They were not always. In the first edition of "Warhammer40k: Rogue Trader" (1989?), navigators did have a special gene, but were not considered mutants. On average, they tended to be taller and more slender than normal humans, but not enough to make them really stand out. It was even specifically mentioned that they were not actually psychers. Of course, WH40K lore being WH40K lore, it was not written in stone.
Though I knew of Warhammer 40,000 since 1991, it was beginning in 2015 that I truly began delving into the lore. It was your two part series on the Emperor of Mankind that made me fully understand the fundamentals aspects and the genesis of the lore of 40k. As always, another great video. Thanks.

In theses days of shoddy movie scripts, botched sequels and alternate timelines disasters, your efforts to make sense of everything 40K is above and beyond what the mainstream medias do. (In other words, I like it a lot.)
40k was essentially born out of Dune + Moorcock's Elric + Judge Dredd/2000AD + Alien + Asimov's Foundation + Heinlein's Starship Troopers + general displeasure with Margaret Thatcher's government.

Actually there is a mention of it in the book "The Path of Heaven" - first and foremost space ships weren't outright destroyed that often except in battles of high tactical import, where the victory outweighed the actual cost of a ship - even by 30k standards creating a ship from scratch was a very long and very costly endeavour, so in a full galactic rebellion where even Mars was aflame, ships were most usually boarded and its crew and navigators repurposed for the side that just seized their ship. There is a mention in this book that navigators were almost always spared when capturing a ship. As for the houses themselves, there is a mention (actually a conjecture from a baseline human that spent his life in service to a Navis house) that the Paternova would be closely watched at all times by a full contingent of guards and psy-scryers for any sign of betrayal. That actually makes sense if you think of it - for the Navis Nobilite's houses on remote Terra, far from the war, there would be little to no information about demons and the warp sorcery being passed onto them, so it might has well have seemed to them like just a very, very big galactic rebellion from a wannabe new emperor. And even if they found out about the real nature of the heresy and the chaos gods, they would know that whoever would win would also still need the peculiar skills of the Navis Nobilite, so the wise move to retain a semblance of power no matter the victor, would be to simply wait for the end of the war, and deal with the victor directly. If your question was more about if there was Navis Nobilite actually taking to the walls of Terra during the siege itself, and using they impressive powers to defend the imperial palace, I guess we'll never know. They are so easily overlooked that I doubt there's even gonna be a mention of them in the Siege of Terra books. So, I guess they just waited the war out, and planned to side with the victor whomever it may be, albeit under close watch in the imperial palace all along Edits : grammar, english is less intuitive than lingua technis.
This is speculation, but I seriously doubt a noble class of inbred blind people would be very willing to put their necks on the line, even if they have impressive psychic powers
On both sides, from a diplomatic perspective this makes sense. If lots of Navigators put their lives on the line for the Emperor then, it could be seen as them foolishly and wastefully trying to garner further favor, immunity, and power. It likely would just shake the already weak trust the Imperium has towards the Navigators. Besides, most of them were likely busy off elsewhere doing important warp work in some corner of the galaxy. Besides they have no choice but to serve already, it's not like many of them are chomping at the bit to throw their lives away in combat when they aren't risking being attacked by void entities.
Oh man just going into my 2nd straight week on a work grind. Needed this! Will help me big time while trying to get all my equipment ready for the next week.
@@dane1751 what i really love is how the more i come to comprehend about 40K, the more i return to videos multiple times to find new depth in what is discussed.
Well they aren't mutants persay they are emperor engineered there for how could they be mutants 1 because they are engineered therefore there abilities were done on purpose 2 they were created by the emperor any notion that his creationd are mutants is Heresy
@@augustuslunasol10thapostle well it isn’t confirmed if the Emperor did but it’s hinted at since they started popping up when the emperor made his moves.
@@Moon-ge2vd no one would be surprised if he did make them and he probably did since we'll knowing the emperor a coincidence like that is not even a coincidence
Last time I was this early, Erebus was generally considered a decent guy. But no seriously, thank you for the inspiration for pushing through and painting my new Sisters army!
One of the enjoyable parts of the whole art design for me is how advanced everything looks but at the same time basic! Space ships capable of warp travel but they still have stained glass windows!! 😅 Then there's the whole 'no need for pad locks, we have a criminal for that' ...advanced but basic!!
this sums up the 40k esthetic pretty well. It's an empire fallen from grace, often using technology they barely understand and losing touch with the high culture it once had to fall into a much more barbaric mindset.
We have this giant powerful ridiculously powerful ship that can literally tear holes in reality itself. It's bristling with weapons and can carry millions of soldiers... I need a ram so I can fly into bad guy ship.
If the average person has evolved low grade psychic powers, then it makes sense to me that the Void Born have evolved low grade pariah powers. If you think about what the biggest dangers for them would be over time (warp incursions) then it makes sense that they would. It also explains why the slightly psychic planet born get creeped out by them, but not as much as actual pariahs. Yes, void born are also on stations and the like, but realistically there would be some population movement between ships and stations. Also I loaded up youtube to play something interesting while playing Battle Fleet Gothic 2..... this works.
Can I just say that for such a long video, the Intro is just absolutely fire. Music, Animation, Art Direction - All just spot on and so satisfying. Well done and thank you Luetin!
The amount of effort you put into these videos vs most other 40k channels is unreal. It's worth the wait and man, lemme say you've helped me get thru many long days of work with these videos. Thank you!
I feel like I just had a shot of dopermine. Literally your opening just showed a perfect example why I look forward to your content drops. As a fairly new subscriber, thank you for such hard work, your work is incredible.
Luetin when you started talking about The Thin Red Line I was so stoked, it’s such an underrated movie! You absolutely should make videos covering movies you enjoy, especially the greats like Thin Red Line. Keep up the great work man your content is out of this world!
It blows my mind how good you are at making these videos. I didn't know a single thing about 40k a month ago and now I'm hooked thanks to your content. Every time I think of something I'd like to more about I search it and you usually have at least one incredibly expansive video on it. Great work
Loved this. You took a topic that wasn't necessarily the most exciting and made it interesting and thought provoking. Your movie references are great and spot on for the subject. You should be very proud of your skills, knowledge, and content. Huge fan for life thank you Luetin!
My only complaint (and a minor one) is that I wish you'd list the names of the songs you use in your videos. They're always so good and knowing the names would make searching for them so much easier. That aside, fantastic video as always!
The choice of music especially in this lore video is phenomenal the intro is so good I always rewind to listen to it my only gripe is finding these great tunes.
Your a gem luetin i did film studies in school and I'd love your style of exegesis applied to films, do you what you love and it will be appreciated I'm sure
"now if you will grant me a lengthy and perhaps unnecessary tangent-" my brother in the emperor's light i am watching multiple hours long video essays on warhammer 40K lore. that's **exactly** what i want to hear
As always Bravo brother Bravo. I hope the crew for Eisenhorn the show hires you as their consultant/remembrance. You and the knowledge you have acquired over the years is priceless and GW should hire you.
Iv been heavily depressed for several days, and have nearly come to suicide, but laying down and watching your videos has helped me calm down far and think clearly, so I wanted to thank you for all the effort and all the love you put into these videos, watching and listening has helped me so much over a few months and getting to learn about warhammer40k which is quickly becoming my favorite lore, has been wonderful, so thank you very much
Some of the most fascinating moments from the Night Lords trilogy are when Octavia is interfacing with the machine spirit of a ship. A navigator needs to build a bond, or at the very least, an understanding with their vessel in order to effectively travel through the warp.
I don’t know if it’s just the off putting nature of the Navigators making their way through the screen, but watching this late at night makes me feel like I am being watched. Thank you for the video though. ❤️
side note: i once had lore videos playing in the background while i slept. in the outro i woke up to the amazing bit of music. best damn alarm clock to date.
Never read a WH40K book or lore entry of some kind, buuuut I loved the Astartes animation and got interested. Listening to you laying out the machinations of WH40K is just incredicbly fascinating. Thank you for being awesome :)
The Navigator's Third Eye allows them to access the warp in the same way that the T'au forehead diamond allows the Ethereals to access their chaos power to manipulate minds. (Discuss)
@@Luetin09 Thanks, Leutin. :) When Farsight and his men encountered Chaos, he realised that the Ethereals had been withholding information and they knew what the Daemons were. The Khorne Daemons went for the Ethereals and killed them. Because Khorne hates followers of Tzeentch.
Listening to Luetin it feels like the best way of experiencing the 40k universe is exactly this. The vague outlines of what life in that universe could be leave room for everyone‘s own imagination to come up with pictures and stories within it. I love the art created for 40k and have enjoyed the videogames set in it for its backdrop but none of that has made me feel quite as immersed as Luetin‘s narration.
I originally did have a bit in there about the envoy, and then I cut it. Its interesting but it wouldve made a long vid longer and its not like super critical overall
I got into 40k a little while ago and I’m sooooo happy I found this channel. Expertly explained and makes my work day go by SO quickly. Keep it up loremaster luetin

On both sides, from a diplomatic perspective this makes sense. If lots of Navigators put their lives on the line for the Emperor then, it could be seen as them foolishly and wastefully trying to garner further favor, immunity, and power. It likely would just shake the already weak trust the Imperium has towards the Navigators. Besides, most of them were likely busy off elsewhere doing important warp work in some corner of the galaxy. Besides they have no choice but to serve already, it's not like many of them are chomping at the bit to throw their lives away in combat when they aren't risking being attacked by void entities.
Oh man just going into my 2nd straight week on a work grind. Needed this!
Will help me big time while trying to get all my equipment ready for the next week.
Impeccable timing, as always.
Can't sleep, and was feeling annoyed with myself. Now I've a reason to be awake 😊
Same here mate
Tbh Luetin's voice lulls me to sleep but it ensures I watch every upload multiple times
@@dane1751 what i really love is how the more i come to comprehend about 40K, the more i return to videos multiple times to find new depth in what is discussed.
Man I just was about to go to bed open my phone to take one last look at yt and I see this
Ditto! 3am here
I'm going to sleep so hard tonight. Thanks
Oh my, 1h17 minutes of Luetin? Praise the Emperor!
And ten seconds mind you!
The generational ships like at 9:22 just absolutely amaze me. Can you imagine how strange that would be? Unless it's all you've known.
best intro of any video, the music just makes it go so hard
good night
It’s funny how mutants are one of the people keeping the imperium alive....
Well they aren't mutants persay they are emperor engineered there for how could they be mutants 1 because they are engineered therefore there abilities were done on purpose 2 they were created by the emperor any notion that his creationd are mutants is Heresy
@@augustuslunasol10thapostle well it isn’t confirmed if the Emperor did but it’s hinted at since they started popping up when the emperor made his moves.
@@Moon-ge2vd no one would be surprised if he did make them and he probably did since we'll knowing the emperor a coincidence like that is not even a coincidence
Last time I was this early, Erebus was generally considered a decent guy.
But no seriously, thank you for the inspiration for pushing through and painting my new Sisters army!
Nobody is that early
One of the enjoyable parts of the whole art design for me is how advanced everything looks but at the same time basic! Space ships capable of warp travel but they still have stained glass windows!! 😅 Then there's the whole 'no need for pad locks, we have a criminal for that' ...advanced but basic!!
this sums up the 40k esthetic pretty well. It's an empire fallen from grace, often using technology they barely understand and losing touch with the high culture it once had to fall into a much more barbaric mindset.
We have this giant powerful ridiculously powerful ship that can literally tear holes in reality itself. It's bristling with weapons and can carry millions of soldiers...
I need a ram so I can fly into bad guy ship.
Thanks for helping me deal with my depression Luetin
Is it me or the production quality of all recent videos is just getting better and better? The music, visuals and editing are simply superb
Dude...the quality of your video, listening to it is like drinking some good wine.
If the average person has evolved low grade psychic powers, then it makes sense to me that the Void Born have evolved low grade pariah powers. If you think about what the biggest dangers for them would be over time (warp incursions) then it makes sense that they would. It also explains why the slightly psychic planet born get creeped out by them, but not as much as actual pariahs.
Yes, void born are also on stations and the like, but realistically there would be some population movement between ships and stations.
Also I loaded up youtube to play something interesting while playing Battle Fleet Gothic 2..... this works.
"Grandma, what a *weird eye* you have."
"All the better to scry warp space with, my dear."
🎶 _"Sweet home, Alabama!"_ 🎵
Can I just say that for such a long video, the Intro is just absolutely fire. Music, Animation, Art Direction - All just spot on and so satisfying. Well done and thank you Luetin!
The amount of times I've used your videos and voice to help me drift off to sleep... In a good way.
By the Emperor, Luetin has returned from his war with the Tau!!!
The amount of effort you put into these videos vs most other 40k channels is unreal. It's worth the wait and man, lemme say you've helped me get thru many long days of work with these videos. Thank you!
I feel like I just had a shot of dopermine. Literally your opening just showed a perfect example why I look forward to your content drops. As a fairly new subscriber, thank you for such hard work, your work is incredible.
The way this finishes with the warping animation and the music! Gives me chills. Great music. Great video. Thanks so much, Luetin.
Luetin when you started talking about The Thin Red Line I was so stoked, it’s such an underrated movie! You absolutely should make videos covering movies you enjoy, especially the greats like Thin Red Line. Keep up the great work man your content is out of this world!
It blows my mind how good you are at making these videos. I didn't know a single thing about 40k a month ago and now I'm hooked thanks to your content. Every time I think of something I'd like to more about I search it and you usually have at least one incredibly expansive video on it. Great work
My man dropping one I've been hopping for. You are excellent, Luetin.
Starting music felt really fresh, not to mention it’s an LT video so it only gets better.
Loved this. You took a topic that wasn't necessarily the most exciting and made it interesting and thought provoking. Your movie references are great and spot on for the subject. You should be very proud of your skills, knowledge, and content. Huge fan for life thank you Luetin!
i think this actually gives one of the best pictures of what the immaterium is like
My only complaint (and a minor one) is that I wish you'd list the names of the songs you use in your videos. They're always so good and knowing the names would make searching for them so much easier. That aside, fantastic video as always!
Praise the lore master Luetin, for he has brought to us a wonderful gift. Rejoice in this bounty of knowledge.
The sheer quality of each video you put out is astounding and every wait between videos is worth it! Cheers, loremaster!
I work in agriculture and i put your videos on the speakers while i work the fields and it really helps get through the grindier days.
Gonna be a good night of sleep after this gem. Ty
God DAMN! Your final lines almost always give me chills. This one especially. "Nothing makes profit like the blood of men." Heavy stuff!
The choice of music especially in this lore video is phenomenal the intro is so good I always rewind to listen to it my only gripe is finding these great tunes.
Just started to feel some heretical gummies I ate, and then Luetin decides to bless me. Thanks
Heretic
You debased, debauched deviant. You should be ashamed of yourself. (Hey- you got any more?)
Dont worry your secrets safe with me lmao the devils lettuce is very tempting
If they are sugar free you may have just committed exterminatus on your gut 🤣
Your a gem luetin i did film studies in school and I'd love your style of exegesis applied to films, do you what you love and it will be appreciated I'm sure
"now if you will grant me a lengthy and perhaps unnecessary tangent-" my brother in the emperor's light i am watching multiple hours long video essays on warhammer 40K lore. that's **exactly** what i want to hear
I would like to make a request to the loremaster himself. One word "Ordinatus" .
Once again, a facet of 40k deeper than I ever knew, and masterfully told by the best in the biz. Thank you sir!
Finally, I can sleep. Definitely listening to this at least four times, gotta get it all in with the attention it deserves.
the first minute already reminded me why luetin is the best wh40k lore youtuber
Saving this for bedtime. Perfect.
The outro music that captivated me : Bonnie Grace : Life above the world
I love checking my subscriptions to see luetin09 has posted made my night
As always Bravo brother Bravo. I hope the crew for Eisenhorn the show hires you as their consultant/remembrance. You and the knowledge you have acquired over the years is priceless and GW should hire you.
That intro was fantastic. As is the whole video (of course), Keep it up fam
Iv been heavily depressed for several days, and have nearly come to suicide, but laying down and watching your videos has helped me calm down far and think clearly, so I wanted to thank you for all the effort and all the love you put into these videos, watching and listening has helped me so much over a few months and getting to learn about warhammer40k which is quickly becoming my favorite lore, has been wonderful, so thank you very much
I hope that you're feeling better.
I've missed these episodes. In a culture of mediocre entertainment delving into the 40k universe with you is an absolute pleasure!
Omnissiah's Grace
this IS MOST INCREDIBLE!
I used to be a navigator, then I took a warp spawn to the knee.
We will never see redfall 😩
It wasn't funny back when Skyrim released and it still isn't funny now.
Booooooo
You need to lay off the Spice dude, your eyes are blue. You're turning into a fxckng fish.
Yes it was@@remondx8880
He's back with new music and an hour long of lore! I literally wath his videos on loop to sleep
Glad you're back mate.
What excuse will I use for sleeping in for work? Because I had to stay up to listen to this 😂👍
Just recently found 40K lore, and just finished watching through the backlog of your channel. It's fun to be caught up
Some of the most fascinating moments from the Night Lords trilogy are when Octavia is interfacing with the machine spirit of a ship. A navigator needs to build a bond, or at the very least, an understanding with their vessel in order to effectively travel through the warp.
I can just imagine Luetin pushing the volume lever at the end of the video slowly to eleven. Great Vid, mate! Thank you again.
That intro music gets me QUITE HYPE
I don’t know if it’s just the off putting nature of the Navigators making their way through the screen, but watching this late at night makes me feel like I am being watched. Thank you for the video though. ❤️
Nothing says "nobility" like a third eye on your forehead.
*cough....Inbreeding.........*cough
From just the intro, you've stepped up your graphics. Bra-frakkin-vo!
side note: i once had lore videos playing in the background while i slept. in the outro i woke up to the amazing bit of music.
best damn alarm clock to date.
These vids just get better and better, thankyou luetin 🤟
Exactly what I needed to feel a little bit better. Hate being sick but LT sure makes you feel better
Never read a WH40K book or lore entry of some kind, buuuut I loved the Astartes animation and got interested. Listening to you laying out the machinations of WH40K is just incredicbly fascinating. Thank you for being awesome :)
For all that are searching for the outro music starting at around 1:14:47
Bonnie Grace - Our New World
The Navigator's Third Eye allows them to access the warp in the same way that the T'au forehead diamond allows the Ethereals to access their chaos power to manipulate minds. (Discuss)
Cant argue with the Truth ;D
@@Luetin09 Thanks, Leutin. :)
When Farsight and his men encountered Chaos, he realised that the Ethereals had been withholding information and they knew what the Daemons were. The Khorne Daemons went for the Ethereals and killed them. Because Khorne hates followers of Tzeentch.
@@alexvaraderey Or they're the only tau who fight in melee
@@CyrodiilCome''Ignore the warsuits firing missiles at us, go for the unarmoured guy who's holding a knife''
@@alexvaraderey that is absolutely khornes thought process
Listening to Luetin it feels like the best way of experiencing the 40k universe is exactly this. The vague outlines of what life in that universe could be leave room for everyone‘s own imagination to come up with pictures and stories within it.
I love the art created for 40k and have enjoyed the videogames set in it for its backdrop but none of that has made me feel quite as immersed as Luetin‘s narration.
Surprised Luetin didn’t mention the paternoval envoy
I originally did have a bit in there about the envoy, and then I cut it. Its interesting but it wouldve made a long vid longer and its not like super critical overall
I got into 40k a little while ago and I’m sooooo happy I found this channel. Expertly explained and makes my work day go by SO quickly. Keep it up loremaster luetin
Missed you luetin; thanks for the video!
I don't want to sound like I don't enjoy your content, because I do! But I feel like I gotta point out how good your soundstage is. The music in the beginning.. god dang I could listen to it all day
Finally I been waiting for this for a while.
