The fleets of the Imperial Navy are made up of multiple vessels that can be divided into three broad size categories: Battleships and Grand Cruisers, Cruisers, and Escorts. The actual size of starships in the Warhammer 40,000 universe is debatable; however, it is worth noting that the upper size of an Imperial Escort mentioned is 30 kilometers from the Black Library story "Wolf Pack" by Gordon Rennie, though the HDMS Lord Solar Macharius is noted to be just 3 kilometres long. The general consensus is that in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, Imperial Escort vessels are anywhere between 750 metres and 3 kilometres in length, Cruisers are anywhere between 5 and 6 kilometres long and Battleships anywhere between 6 and 8 kilometres.

I absolutely adore the new poster. It beats all the others hands down in terms of both how well it's drawn and sex appeal.

THAT VIDEO INTRODUCED ME TO 40K AS A CONCEPT AND I FUCKING MISS HIM
RIP Jonathan "Totalbiscuit" Bain.
For those wondering, look for the video The Co-Optional Podcast Animated: ADMIRAL BISCUIT (and whatever podcast episode it originated from)
It's counterintuitive for most, but soldiers in light infantry and especially scout units tend to be more armed than typical soldiers because they lack backup and logistical support. With the scale of warfare in 40k, I can easily see that applying to scout ships and recon vessels as well.
That logic actually applies to the Striking Scorpions of the Craftworld Eldar. They have heavier armor compared to most aspect warriors and are an infiltration unit. Sometimes waiting months for the signal. Getting caught in a situation means they won’t get scythed down by gunfire or artillery as their armor is comparable to space marine protection. They can slip away and regroup for another attempt.
many think of scouts as expendable units like screens. When in reality they are a more specialized force that is just ahead of the advance, they are the point of the spear head while the infantry are the rest of the sharp tip edges
@@clonedrone3084 Well in the infantry comparison, armor doesn't apply. Light infantry like scouts, rangers and recon may carry more equipment and firepower per person, but they usually wear minimum armor.
@@cheeseninja1115 Yeah they're also at risk of more friendly fire than anyone else... I got mortared twice by my own guys. But scouts will often take the lead to catch ambushes, traps and identify targets so their pace is often determined by the environment. The main force however, is used to moving at a certain rate and too often the two methods come into conflict with the main force overtaking the scouts, especially with overzealous commanders. The danger with the main force surpassing your scouts is two fold: one, your main force may run into enemy ambushes or miss enemy positions and two, your scouts are at risk of being hit by friendly forces who misidentify them.
Excellent point

Now you've done the Navy, we NEED a Rogue Trader episode. Especially given that nearly all the Imperial Navy lore and info comes from the game of the same name
Agreed
A rogue trader episode would be awesome considering Bricky got to play the alpha for the upcoming Rogue Trader game
The Rogue Trader already here!!!
Some notes from an ex-Battlefleet Gothic captain, now Rogue Trader Commodore:
Warning: paragraphs upon paragraphs incoming.
The Turbulent Heavy Frigate was basically designed along the idea that two or three of them could stand toe to toe with enemy cruisers. The important thing is that despite being smaller and having fewer guns, they have cruiser-thick armour, and the combined firepower of a squadron of them matches the available firepower of a cruiser anyway.
So, the Dauntless. This isn't a case of 'don't think about it too hard,' you need to understand what a scout cruiser actually is. The Dauntless' job is to go out on multi-year patrol missions, sometimes entirely unsupported, to maintain Imperial power projection and detect threats early over long distances. Yes, it's heavily armed, and yes, it's a scout, because when it's doing its job it's often the only Imperial ship within months if not years of travel distance and it needs to be able to defend itself from everything ranging from packs of pirate raiders up to the odd Ork ship.
The Endeavour is another case of understand its role: the Endeavour is basically a ship of the line on a budget. It was intended to fill gaps in the line of battle in proper large-scale fleet engagements, add to torpedo broadsides, throw hands with cruisers et cetera, so it is both shorter (doesn't need as much space to carry supplies because it's not going on long-range missions) and carries more firepower in the form of torpedo tubes in addition to a prow mounted weapon, whereas the Dauntless has either/or. On the ramming front, the Endeavour would be able to survive the incoming firepower, they wouldn't be able to catch up.
To understand the Dictator, just think the Imperial Star Destroyer. That's basically it. It's used primarily for anti-piracy operations because the fighters can flush out raider craft and other small ships from the asteroid fields they like to hide in and bring them into range of the macrocannons. Fun fact: the Navy generally completely disregards the use of fighter craft. Most admirals use carriers only begrudgingly, which means a lot of them get into the hands of Rogue Traders with good connections to the Navy. Also, Shy is somewhat wrong, those strike craft can get further out than the range of most voidship weapons. The Dictator can absolutely just sit in the backline vomiting out fighter craft if it wants to, but they do normally stay in macrocannon range.
Good ol' Nova Cannon, the Navy version of 'parry this you filthy casual,' to the blast radius of tens of thousands of kilometers. As to why it's at the front, it's like MAC cannons in Halo, you need the entire structure of the ship to support the recoil of the damn thing. On the subject of the whole out-broadsiding two chaos cruisers, the Dominator has two decks of macrocannons instead of macros and lances, and at closer ranges Imperial broadsides tend to be stronger (you'd think it'd be the other way around, but Chaos ships tend to be older, more sophisticated models with higher range, while Imperial ships are brute, simple ships with higher volume of fire).
Not quite on the Gothic. The Lunar also has lances on each side, the difference between the Lunar and the Gothic is the Gothic *ONLY* has lances. It has no subtlety, its usefulness falls off dramatically if it doesn't have a support ship to batter down the void shields of the enemy ship, but if it gets a clean shot off it'll tear any other ship apart.
Important context missing from the Battlecruisers: the deal with battlecruisers is they took damaged cruiser hulls, put a much bigger power source in it, then put more guns and armour on it. The idea was to create a more mobile/longer mission duration ship with comparable firepower to a grand cruiser or battleship. It's entirely accurate to call any battlecruiser a 'poor man's battleship,' but battlecruisers are vastly easier to make because there's wrecked cruiser hulls all over the place.
Kirioth's quite off about the number of gun decks. Cruisers and Battlecruisers have two sets of weapons on the port and starboard, Grand Cruisers have three. A big distinction is that cruisers have a prow weapon, battlecruisers have both a prow and a dorsal weapon, while grand cruisers have neither. The whole idea of the grand cruiser was to charge full-tilt straight towards the enemy and perform the naval equivalent of knife-fighting by firing both broadsides point-blank. Naturally, this kind of warfare is utterly unsustainable now, so grand cruisers have fallen out of favour with the Navy.
Addendum on the Nova Cannon, other reason for it being front mounted has to be this line I found "The Nova Cannon itself is massive; the barrel is the length of all but the largest Imperial vessels. The projectiles have a diameter of at least 50 metres and are fired at close to light speed after being accelerated by gravimetric coils."
Thank you for the useful info dump!
Its a better rail gun for the nova cannon
I love the similarity that in the old days sailors would worry about the ship getting infested with rats. Where as in 40K you have to worry about your ship being infested with Nightlords.
Shy just pointing out where the guns are on real ships while they talk about how unrealistic it is is probably my favorite part of this episode
Fun fact the uss barb was a sub in ww2 that would frequently modify their torpedoes against regulations since it was highly frowned upon. Also the captain went on more than 2 war tours which wasn't normally allowed and also asked the sub to be fitted with a rocket launcher atop the sub to engage land targets and is still the only sub credited with the kill of a train. Very Warhammer captain way ahead of his time.
CAPT. Fluckey ftw.
He went on 2 more war tours than was usually allowed.
4 was the usual, Captain Fluckey went on 6.
Also, some extra info for anyone who reads this. They didn't use the Rockets to blow up the train. They used the ww2 equivalent of an IED, using the scuttling charge as the explosive.

Any recommendations for good Rogue Trader novels?
The number of people really starts making sense when you realize how much vertical space has to be on a ship. It’s not just 1km long, it’s tens of stories tall. It’s a skyscraper on its side.
Wow!
A 30 kilometer escort ship actually kind of makes sense, in the way that a battleship used to escort the rest of the fleet in WW2, because the battleships were actually feared enough to make every single enemy to avoid the general area any battleship was in _like the goddamn plague._
So in my mind, there's a supermassive imperial dreadnaught-breaker escort ship somewhere in the galaxy.
Because if you want someone to escort you down a dark, damp alleyway, _why not choose DOOMSLAYER, the God of Unspeakable Violence, to protect you?_
...
But seriously, it kind of makes sense, and i want that to be real, because that's the exact kind of stupid WH40K needs more of.
The British Royal Navy's Revenge-class battleships in particular were frequently assigned to convoys as protection from surface raiders since it was sorely needed and they were too slow to do much else anyway. After all, the entire purpose of a battleship is to control the sea around it and deny it to the enemy, so escort/screening duty is technically part of the job description. Especially since before viable attack aircraft were a thing the main counter to a battleship was another battleship.
You could make the argument that it's actually a leftover from the Dark Age of Technology, bringing up the lore that the Baneblade's STC blueprint calls it a light scout tank.
Now all i can imagine is the space equivalent of the Bismarck, I love it
Not only that but if we're actually being realistc for ships to actually be scary enough to pose true threats to planets your basic escort would have to be that size. Because I'm sorry but an 8km ship is so fucking small a planet would barely register it being there. If were talking about actual ships sizes battleships should be litterral continent size when compared to earth. Because what we cannot forget is that earth is a pathetically small planet in the broad scale of things and these ships would need to be strong enough to fight and pose a threat to all planets.
@@clink-at-war2 you mean the artificial corral reef?
i love the ship design of the empire, like a mix of old wooden ships, ironclads and modern ones
side guns like the sailboats
ramming bows like the ironclads
modern weaponry like torpedoes (and laser guns etc etc)
You get some greek styles in there as well especially with the now renamed can opener
That poster opened the cash gates.
Bricky is gonna be both warp tainted, and SUH-WIMMING in cash.
Might have this misremembered, but: in the Ragnar books there is a point where he is on a ship and the chapter master guy (forget his name) orders his ship to ram the enemy ship, and the book explains that the front battering ram is built to ram INTO a ship and open up so the Space Marines can charge through the ram and the hole into the enemy ship to start wrecking house
Yep from the book Grey Hunter where Ragnar's Wolf Lord ordered the ramming of the chaos ship for the glory to board it.
Those are Astartes ships. They're not built the same way, Space Marine ships are much more boarding-focused so they can deploy their best assets against their enemies.
Roman Empire moment
After watching almost all Adeptus Ridiculous episodes, I can say without a doubt this channel is one of the best in the Warhammer 40K community.
I have come to the realisation that I don't watch these episodes for the content. I watch them pretty much only for Shy's snarky mems and written comments. She's the true star of the show!
The degeneration of the space wolves from a heavy Viking theme to wolf wolf wolf wolf wolf wolf wolf has entirely disappointed me more than I could ever expect GW to
Bet: Emperor class being carrier focused will surprise DK, who will expect it to have big guns.
I mean, considering the way 40k goes, you'd expect it to have the biggest meanest guns, you know, be a real damn showpiece if it carries the man's title!
It’s Warhammer
The bigger it is, the bigger the guns gotta be. That’s the logic

It's got it all. Excellent series.
I'd recommend looking at the Rogue Trader RPG books for information on what happens if a torpedo blows up inside an imperial ship: The ship takes an amount of damage that depends on the model of torpedo launcher. It's a very unpleasant amount of damage, especially considering that you're probably already in combat, but it shouldn't outright destroy an otherwise undamaged ship.
There is a CRPG launching its 1.0 version on December and it will have ship to ship combat!
24:00 in defense of both DK and Shy.
"Sir we took damage after the last ram."
"How bad?"
"We can't fire the main guns."
"Why all the damage is to the front I see no signs of power loss?"
"Ya see what's left of the front of the ship is now in the way of the guns."
"that bad huh?"
A feature I love about the best Imperial ships is the visual story. If you strip off the city on top, you get to a relatively sensible design (for 40k).
But you can see added superstructure all over, like the crew gradually added space and areas over time, mostly outside the armor.
I always figured the "city" stuff was point defense systems and sensors and other scifi/starship things of that nature.
@@RipOffProductionsLLCyes but its also living quarters, literal chapels, decorations, etc
I am sad the Ark Mechanicus Speranza was overlooked, that thing has multiple Titan training rooms, can fit multiple other cruisers inside it like it's own retinue of fighters, could shoot black holes, destroyed a forge world when it was activated, and has a complete STC among other shenanigans

The main reason for the Rams, on even Warships that are not built for Ramming, is that it basically doubles the amount of armor in the front. And as even Battleships have to close with the enemy to get into firing range, having extra armor to protect them is a very good idea.
Nice!

It's awesome how in the 41st millennium space battles are fought with 18th century naval tactics.
No it's dumb as hell.
Well 18th century naval tactics with energy shields, ancient naval boarding tactics, lasers and aircraft carriers.
Yeah!
if the ships are only a few killometers. they are short! you can get from one side to the other in less than a mounth on foot.
i walk around 1 or half a kilometer almost daily on 1 walk specificly
I had to run here or else the movie would be over.
The largest battleship ever constructed was the Yamato, it was 263m long. The largest aircraft carrier was the Gerald R. Ford, it was 337m long. According to Wikipedia, the longest ship ever made was the Seawise Giant, an oil tanker measuring 458m, less than half a kilometer. All of those ships are ridiculously large for self-propelled craft of any sort, any man near a ship of that size feels absolutely dwarfed; I've been next to the cruise ship Queen Mary 2 once, the thing is 345m long and it looks like a floating city. Now consider that a *small* warship in 40k is about 1000m long. That there are some that go up to 8000m long. That those are just the largest known battleships, meaning there are bigger man-made self-propelled structures in that Universe, such as the Ramilies class Star-Fort which is estimated to be about 22 km sq, or roughly half the area of Manhattan island.
Those structures are not "short" by any means; Yes, you could walk from one end to the other in a few hours at most, assuming a straight corridor with open hatches, no damage and nothing else slowing you down; that fact does not convey the sheer absurdity of the scale of such a vessel. I refer you to the 40K Starship Size Visualizer on voidstate dot com (google it, UA-cam does not like links in comments): input your local city and one of the larger ships in the drop-down list. That will give you a vague idea of how huge those things are.

EDIT: Shy, do you do commissions? :3
Recommendation: watch Drachinifel's videos on the IJN Type 93 "Long Lance" and the USN Mark 14 torpedos if you want to see how dangerous torpedos could be to their own ships. Heck, with the Type 93s, crews could do everything right and still die due to their enemies getting a good hit because oxygen fueled torpedos are very dangerous - and those were used by surface ships. The Mark 14s surface ship counterparts aren't as infamous as the Mark 14, but had the same problems. Considering the Administratum and the Mechanicus, I'm not shocked by BuOrd level issues in the Imperium. (Bonus: Drach is a 40K fan and did a 5 Minute Guide to the Emperor class for April Fool's one year.)
Edit: cruisers being as armed as they are and being meant for scouting again parallels actual WW II cruisers (including deceptive strength, looking at you Mogami class). Edit x2: the Mogamis would hug that one aviation cruiser class for being their spiritual successors. If only those attack craft were called Zuiun...
Well, it's good to know that my entire city could probably run a cruiser as a skeleton crew.
They're exaggerating the crew numbers in this video. While the numbers vary wildly by author, a good estimate should be in the tens of thousands, maybe one or two hundred thousand for the largest battleships. It sounds about right when you consider that, for example, a US Nimitz class aircraft carrier has a crew complement of around 5000.

Shy's taste in posters is very based
That moment when you realize there are like 26 playable factions in 40k... and FIVE of them are the Imperium.
Crew sizes are actually proportional to Star Wars to my surprise. The smaller 40k ships are roughly the size of a star destroyer and have 25,000+. Star Wars media usually gives Destroyers about 27,000 crew.
Cool!

to go on a tangent for ships. In Darktide, there is one section of a hive that appears to be building Monitor escort vessels Inside the Hive (forgot the name of the mission, but you raid a train to get supplies and hold out. the space vessel is Suspended. By. Massive. Chains. GW had to approve this somehow XD
Well GW commission the game to fatshark
Hahaha! Loona Wolf…if that’s isn’t on the nose, I don’t know what is!
I think “scout” is meant to mean that it can operate independently, so it is not great in any particular role but can do everything enough to protect itself. Battleships, Escort Cruisers, destroyers and frigates on the other hand are meant to work in unison. So battleships counter cruisers and battleships, Escort cruisers counter destroyers or carry strike craft, destroyers counter frigates and frigates counter strike craft.
The new poster reminds me of Luna from "Hell of'va Boss. So I approve.
Light cruisers are used for long range scouting/patrols. They have to be larger for the deeper stores of supplies needed for deep void patrols.
26:10
Imperial Navy Captain: "OH No! The enemy is crossing the T...anyways, Full power to the Engines!"
The thing about "dropping" 1 torpedo and it blowing up is
1: The torpedo is designed to destroy other ships from outside.
2: There are most likely other torpedos nearby, so you will not only blow up 1 torpedo.
Even the biggest ships would likely not survive their entire stock of warheads going up from inside.
It can also bypass shields, right?
So is Shy secretly a furry? If you remember a while back during the imperial guard tank episode at the very end shy was showing pictures of some painted miniatures but the location they got it from was Furaffinity. Now we have the current poster which DK said was shy's idea.

"you really couldn't have gone worse" I'm pretty sure Shy is going to take that as a challenge to go even worse with the posters bricky.

Well, honestly the size of the crew sounds relatively reasonable, considering the US carrier that was in the comparison picture for the frigate has a crew of around 3000ish. Considering the massively bigger volume of the frigate, 25000 seems even a little low, tbh
Particular as rhe imperium is so incomptent not all guns are equipped with autoloader so its cannon that some ships do still use hundreds of slaves to man one gun
the nova cannon recoil would fold a ship in half if it wasnt mounted directly to the ship spine on the front of the ship
ships already burn their thrusters at maximum to stay in position while firing so they dont fly back into their formation
thats the kind of force this gun has
thats why its not mounted in the back where the bridge might explode

The imperiums naval tactics isn’t that far removed from our modern ones, for example frigates are commonly referred to as “missile sponges”, and during the falklands war the royal navy utilised attack helicopters to draw the target of anti air missiles to protect transport helicopters, essentially using the idea that if they had to sacrifice any helicopter, it’s better to lose the smaller one with a crew of 2
It’s not a true carrier if it doesn’t crew a small country
I knew immediately all those Lupine posters were gonna be gone. XD
Umm actually…
I’m pretty certain the ”guns” on the front of the Emperor-class are actually radars, antennas and sensor/augur arrays. The emperor class is more like a carrier/command & control-ship although it does have some big guns to protect itself. It’s also the only non-escort imperial ship in Gothic Armada 2 that has the scanning ability.
Every AdRic podcast episode has it's THE shenanigan moment and/or quote and this episode's one for me was "yoo! let's goo! ketchup gas!" absolute stupid brilliance or brilliant stupidity from Bricky.
A note to Bricky, the Astral Lupine print is already sold out, only 4 days after this has gone live.
Shy once again coming in hot with the heavy hitters right off the bat. Fantastic work!
I actually think the eagle head is meant to stop the ship from going to far in and protect it's torpedo tubes when it rams. It's the underside of the ship that's the actual ram
If there is one word nobody wants to hear from the ships torpedo loading bay is "Whoops."
In the echoes of the long war book from the war of the beast series an ork carrier was said to be bigger than the phalanx itself and used its main gun to basically turn a red giant star into a black hole cause it started to lose
Shy's passive agressive editing is always a treat xD
the Emperor Class Battleship doesn't have a bunch of guns on the front, it's a fleet command ship, so all those pylons and towers on the prow are sensor suites, comm towers and all sorts of logistics addons
The endeavor is a can opener. The can is your ship.
The poster would be even greater if the armor was Luna Wolves instead of Space Wolves xd
But still, it is absolutely beautiful xDDD
Can't wait to see if they tackle other navies like necrons, eldar, chaos, tau, etc
One of my First 40K books I ever read as a young guy was one of the Uriel Ventris Books. Relatively early on there was a fleet trying to stop a Tyranid Hive Fleet Tentacle and it was really detailed in describing how the super buffed Nova Cannon on the Capital Ship shot the equivalent of "a small sun" inbetween the mayor hive ships and it killed like 4 of them but it was just not enough. To this day I use that example to describe why even tho the Imperium is soooooo OP it's just not enough. like the lasguns that would stomp for us but are more or less just flashlights to the enemies of mankind in many cases.
