We need a story where Chaos invades a planet and the Arbites are totally stoked because arresting an Aspiring Champion would be the biggest bust any space cop has ever managed
@@raycearcher5794 There was a Night Lord Warband who raided a prison colony run by the Arbites. If memory serves one raider told the Arbite facing them to take their best shot, unaware that the cop was armed with an inherited volkite rifle (which are relics from the Age of Strife and often very difficult to reproduce.) There's also a series of books about an Arbites captain who gets up to all sorts of shenanigans including a tech priest house of horrors and Rogue Trader inheritance disputes.
I believe they'd probably refer to their weaponry for riot control as "less lethal" not "non-lethal." That's how modern SWAT teams refer to things like tear gas and bean bag rounds- getting shot at near point blank with a bean bag round can still potentially injure or kill you.
Same with tasers too. If they stick the wrong spot they don’t get back up. I think they also started using it to make sure the officers were also aware of the dangers. After all even if they knew in the back of their mind, call it “NON- Lethal” long enough you can forget
You can just imagine a report from the arbites that goes something like "Due to our officers careful application of less lethal tactics, only 37% of the suspects were killed during the pacification operation, allowing the rest to have the Emperor's mercy applied extensively to them"
Speaking of Word Bearers: There is a new meme going around of the mental gymnastics of the Word Bearers going from "Monarchia was unjustified" spiraling down to "Calth was an act of self-defense" Doing an episode on Calth would be fun 😂
05:57 the fact that people still think of Judge Dredd as Sylvester Stallone and not the marvelous Karl Urban in Dredd (2012) still fills me with sadness
How fitting. I am currently putting together the Arbites Kill Team. Unfortunately it is also kind of a hassle to build them in a way so that they are also viable in 40k while preserving all the options. Had to fall back to trying to find the Miniature of the Month from over a year ago to make that work. Also, "fun" fact: Because the kit is currently reboxed for the new Kill Team edition, it is not available from GW. The kit is used for 3 of the 26 datasheets in the Agents of the Imperium Codex that released in the Summer, which means means that 11% of the Army, or rather 15% when also counting the Navy Breachers of the very same reason, is unavailable because GW can't plan their released properly.
"Inquisitors can even boss around astartes sometimes..." Chaos gate comes to mind. Iquisitors show up and tell the Grey Knights they're working for the inquisitors now, and aren't immediately shoved out an airlock.
It's been a hot second- but time for some bonus lore! The fact you may not live long enough to see a crime and your potential pardon for it does not change much in the eyes of the law; It is more than possible for crimes to be inherited if the generation who was accused has passed. Far from the nicest thing to inherit in a will
I'd love to imagine that Konrad Curze had a hand in writing much of what would become the book of judgement that the Arbites would follow. It fits thematically as Curze was able to bring his horrific crime world to order, and the writings literally being on sheets of human flesh would definitely check out.
No clue why but my audio interface pitched everything down an octave and I thought bricky was reading dk's part until bricky spoke. In summary if you pitch DK's voice down he becomes a bricklet
The only Arbites story I've ever heard (outside of TTS) turned out to be an Alpha Legion story in disguise. We were following an Arbite who was investigating and interrogating a number of saboteurs. TLDR, the Arbite was an Alpha Legion plant, and the 30 or so saboteurs he interrogated each gave him a single word of his activation phrase to restore his memory.
Remember how Shy keeps saying, "The Imperium persists in spite of it's flaws and flawed institutions, not because of them"? But the Imperium still needs the Knights, and the Inquisition, and the Administratum, and the Arbites, because it's going to crumble without them. It's like in the Simpsons when Mr. Burns goes to the doctor and finds out he has every disease. All of them are too busy fighting each other to kill him, which he thinks makes him immortal, but it's really not the same.
Agreed, the Imperium is constantly dealing with balancing the Pros/Cons of each of its institutions. Despite all the stories we have of Inquisitors doing heinous acts, they do deal with threats so that they never resolve into bigger issues (mostly). While the Administratum is an organizational nightmare, it does sort out the logistics in the end. The Arbites may be the walking symbol of harsh justice, they do keep things under control. Despite how horrible all these institutions are to the people, they ensure the Imperium survives. Are there different ways to survive, sure but it's too late to try those methods in a Galaxy like 40K.
@@collecter343 Ok so that's last sentence is where you've lost the point. GW has been very, _VERY_ clear that the Imperium is not justified in its actions.

For context on the Book of Judgment and the amount of laws it has… an Centurion has a copy of the Book of Judgment made of human skin and is so big he sometimes uses it as a support beam. That copy was also an *outdated* copy. Legends say that just before the coup against Guilliman, the soul of Rogal Dorn manifested into reality just to outlaw making new laws to the High Lords themselves just as they tried outlawing “clown goblins”. Allegedly by order the Emperor himself. I Am the -Lawn- Law! -Provost Marshal.
Honestly papa Smurf can only dismantle certain things but anything that is a large organization that has a lot of power and has control over territories of the imperium would be extremely hard to dismantle without crippling the imperium.🐱
I've got something like 80 hours in Necromunda Hired Gun and I can confirm I found the dialogue like pulling teeth, but the actual story was kinda engaging. But the GAMEPLAY is like DOOM on a crack addiction. Grapples, rushes, extra jumps, different recharge weapons like grenade stacks, shield break, and Dead-eye. The pacing isnt amazing but it takes you through active warzones, on the cool massive trains, and through very large maps with some pretty cool sights. The real draw is the weapon customization through a simple system with a lot of options and the really cool enemies that you get to feel like you evolve and grow to overpower with finess and brute force. Its sick, would recommend.
I'm reading The Avenging Son and there's a character from the administratum who sees the decay of the Imperium and thinks it is like the Emperor ordained
Master of the Administratum: Should we Outlaw laxatives for everyone but us(the High Lords)? Lord Militant: Perhaps we should ban counting again? Fabricator General: “What were talking about, banging the breathing of Air for everyone who is not us(the High Lords)?” We must ban Clown Goblins. Provost Marshal: What’s today? Decius: *facepalm* “I’m surrounded by idiots.” -Archive records of the High Lords discussing new laws.
It's interesting to consider the degree to which, from a law/bureaucracy angle, the Imperium survives in part because the Arbites are basically allowed to make judgements on the fly. They represent the Lex Imperialis, sure, and the Book of Judgement informs that. But the Book of Judgement is simply impractical to actually use in cases, because of how gigantic and labyrinthine it is. The Arbites, meanwhile, were formed during the Unification Wars, when the Emperor was just trying to consolidate power on Terra. They had to be invested with the authority to make rulings, because the Law at the time wasn't very robust. A privilege that probably was never removed, even as the Great Crusade brought a galaxy's worth of worlds under the Imperium, and the body of the Lex expanded exponentially. No one ever told the Arbites "no, you can't just make judgement calls on the fly, based on your own interpretation of _part_ of the Lex, you need to process cases properly". Because if the Arbites had to actually follow the full Book of Judgement, the Imperium would have collapsed thousands of years ago due to inescapable bureaucratic gridlock. The Imperium would have ground to a halt, as increasingly more resources poured into processing criminal cases, until the entire apparatus imploded. The Arbites being Judge & Jury is, itself, a release valve for the colossal administrative pressure felt at all times by the Imperium's criminal justice system. It's a grand irony that the Adeptus Arbites can only maintain the rule of Law by _ignoring most of it,_ and just working on vibes.
For some reason when combing through the Book of Judgment was mentioned my mind immediately went to the one scene from Spaceballs: "combing the desert". "Found anything yet?" "We ain't found $#!*" It's actually quite appropriate lol.
The thithes got a episode that has arbites and god damn are they awesome! Say what you will on the custodian but seeing arbites against nids was just sooo cool! Its episode 2 btw.
I would actually recommend reading the Calpurnia books, they're pretty good. The first one in particular (Crossfire) focus a lot on Arbites work. The second (Legacy) gives a good view into Rogue Traders as well, and the third (Blind) takes place in a tower full of Astropaths. so a lot of the "minor" parts of 40k that are rarely focused on.
Another good episode but I feel that you skipped over the fact that the Arbities have the authority to requisition almost anything they deem nessiary to do their duties. While most Arbites precincts use Rhinos and Chimeras for rapid deployment and crowd control, the precinct on the planet Pavonis had 3 Leman Russ tanks they kept and used when the world had a cue attempted by the local PDF. This was covered during the events of the first Ultramarines series book with Uriel Ventris. If I remember correctly, the main reason the Arbites had those tanks was because the planet they were on manufactured them.
They already did Die Hard in 40k. It was a Ciaphas Cain short story. And when I say they did Die Hard, I mean its author straight-up uses lines from the movie.
It's a darn good thing that being the exact same thing as Judge Dredd automatically makes you brutally cool, cuz' I was surprised to hear how little else these guys have going for them personality-wise. Makes the Ultramarines look like a diverse bunch (cuz' they really are in comparison, but I digress).
dude I was just building my kill team arbites this week and then I thought when are they gonna make an episode out of these, well my prayers have been fulfilled
17:28, you should cover Bobby G's return to Terra in an episode at some point but yeah spoilers: It was both essentially, Bobby G ofered them a good pension and severance package and the option to leave and those fools too that as weakness and Naaivete and thus transitioned from the terriotry of ''fuck around'' to the land of ''find out''. Also the assinorum only pretended to be on the rebellious lords sides in order to more efficently kill them XD
Yall really need to check out the Inquisitor Erasmus Crowl books, all 3. Inquisitors, arbites, enforcers, certain giant gold daddy’s, scenes of Terra in current ish lore, all the way to vaults. Really really good stuff
Fun fact: the reason the administratum uses parchment over a data slate is because they don't want to show favoritism to the mechanicus.

Makes the Ultramarines look like a diverse bunch (cuz' they really are in comparison, but I digress).
*”I AM THE LAW!”*
As said in the necromunda hired gun trailer
Luv me mastiff
Luv me money
Luv me autogun
Life good
I was trying to remember what these dudes were called this morning... wow, that's coincidental.
"The enforcers will handle this!"
"Bring me... chopper... back-up."
The Adeptus Arbites shot my dog
ACAB!!
That's rough buddy.
I like how the scale could just as easily represent the imperial tithe as it does justice
"Now you're just saying words."
The Calpurnia trilogy is a pretty good way to see the day and life of an arbites.
This makes certain parts of "All Guardsmen Party" even funnier
The remodel makes em look like marvel nova corps officers. But very cool shtick. As usual great delivery in explanation of the faction
dude I was just building my kill team arbites this week and then I thought when are they gonna make an episode out of these, well my prayers have been fulfilled
Glad to see non-playable factions getting attention, hope this keeps coming!
they are not Military Police, they are Police Military
17:28, you should cover Bobby G's return to Terra in an episode at some point but yeah spoilers:
It was both essentially, Bobby G ofered them a good pension and severance package and the option to leave and those fools too that as weakness and Naaivete and thus transitioned from the terriotry of ''fuck around'' to the land of ''find out''.
Also the assinorum only pretended to be on the rebellious lords sides in order to more efficently kill them XD
Wait I forgot who I am....Oh yeah I AM THE LAW!!
My faith in the God emperor has been rewarded. I've long prayed for an arbites episode.
Yall really need to check out the Inquisitor Erasmus Crowl books, all 3. Inquisitors, arbites, enforcers, certain giant gold daddy’s, scenes of Terra in current ish lore, all the way to vaults. Really really good stuff
