You know you've made it lads when someone does one of these. xD
QWQ no chaos space marines.
@@Pluto.AAC_ or Chaos Knights/CSM
we need a part 2 to this, and maybe an AOS/old hammer version
There will be a part 2 with more 40k sub factions/major factions and one for Old Warhammer :)
Iron Hands and Tau are needed @@northernexile
Thank god :-)
As a necron player...
"I just think theyre neat!"
I was thinking of getting into 40k, and didnt want to go with space marines or chaos, so I was looking through the xenos, and thinking "hmm... thats badass. Oh thats neat. Oh definitely not them, I dont want to get made fun of...", and my eyes crossed the Neceons and I thought "now THAT. That is a badass faction that doesnt look silly. All of the malicious and evil vibes of the Drukhari, but with none of the silly bdsm aesthetic. I must have them now."
Trazyn stories alone could make more people play Necrons. Such a great character
Genestealer Cults so perfectly infiltrated the hobby you won't recognize then until a Plan Generations in the making is irreversible
Well said broodmate
I look at Imperial Guard similarly to how "Orks nevah lose!"
Guard, is always heroic ESPECIALLY in defeat. Color Sgt Kell isn't badass because he takes on a space marine and wins, he's a badass because he takes on a CHAOS CHARGED Space Marine AT ALL. Same with Ollanious Pious, standing between the Emperor and the more terrifying entity reality could manifest
My 40K army is a Bolt Action British Force from late WW2. I think that means I'm old as fuck.
Night Lords:
1. You like to be abused
2. 80s Thrash metal vibes
3. Seriously GW stop shitting on us
4. Cool helmets
Well done.
I started Ultras back in 2nd ed. They were the level headed. Think first warriors akin to spartans. Then came the "Wardening" and off to spaztastick schmuck land they went.
Also "For Karl!"
Honestly the imperial guard one hit me on a personal level with how true it is to me
Definitely need a part 2 and 3. You could do a whole sub faction of space marine only video by itself. I’d really like to know what my 8,000 points of Black Templar say about me. Also be interesting to find out what it means when I’ve got several thousand points of other armies(gray knights, sisters, Custodes, dark angels, and Tyranids) lol
Probably accurate, but I’m the muscly guy you say plays custodians, but I love death guard. The people that do the best in the profession of arms in real life are the ones that can take the most punishment, mentally and physically. It’s why I love DG and Iron Warriors the most, in that order.

“Nurgle also personifies perseverance and survival. While those who wish to spread death, decay and corruption are certainly amongst his followers, there are also those who wish to endure, to become resilient enough to handle the difficulties and opportunities presented by an uncaring world.”

Death Guard are awesome. I wish they weren’t gross, that part gets the most attention but looking past that, the fundamental concept is awesome
The Tyranids part had me!!! I have played Sisters since they came out at the end of second edition (without even having a codex). I always assumed that was the most preferred army for the ladies (well, at that time it was an all male hobby in my country, but luckily times change) but years later I started Tyranids aaaand... let´s say it was a surprise. Not a bad one, and I must say the vast majority are extremely nice, but a surprise nonetheless, certainly not what you expect in a bug-themed army XDD
As a Sisters of Battle fan, I have to say: guilty as charged. :D
I am Imperial Guard player and this describes me in 100% and im proud of it
The mind of a 3 year old made me laugh out loud -an ork player
Eldar Player:
Musician/Actor
Ex-Aikido Student
Not arrogant, everyone else is just wrong
This video made me cry
I think this is a great idea for a video. This could be a whole series; episodes focusing on each faction, one at a time, and talking with faction players about their affinity with it.
Some of these may have been a tad much or very specific. Though a part 2 with word bearers or chaos in general really would be great.
Though as someone who started with space wolves because his favorite animal is a wolf and stopped after really getting into germanic history, religion/mythology, etc and just getting a better understanding of it all, I appreciate the caveat that they're the "Vikings" kind of viking. That is to say, not vikings at all.
Guard is my main, and I got a big smile when you mentioned Lindybeige
This was a lot of fun! I actually got into death guard because I’m a neat freak. But i get so obsessed at times, I feel I could easily find it tempting to just give in and say “it’s all contaminated”
For the giggles this was fun. Can you give us a read on “Night Lords” players?
I mainly got into Custodes when I got into the hobby for three reasons:
1. Gold, yes that hit the nail on your view of it.
2. I thought the Gun spears and axes were pretty cool, gave them flavor for me to bite into before I dived into the hobby more and enjoyed the full arsenal
3. The Aquilan Shield gave me my favorite color combo of purple and gold, and their concept as protectors of important figures, whether known or destined in the future, made for plenty of fun concepts to think on while I paint
And you lift some heavy ass weight YEA BUDDY
I picked up the Leviathan box and now have 2,000+ points of Space Marines AND Tyranids.
Both are Hombrew Chapter and Hive Fleet.
My next army will be Genestealer Cultists, then Tau or Sisters of Battle.
So if there's a Part 2, can we get:
Deathwatch
Genestealer Cultists
Tau, and
Players who build a Homebrew faction.
Holy crap. I play Guard (2/3 got right by north), LoV (2/3), Orks (3/3). Wife paints Demons and Nids (3/3 on her). Pretty spot on, good sir.
The only faction I play on this list is TS and I don't fall into the description for Thousand Sons, am I playing the wrong faction?
Hello thousand sons player here:
Just add fetish for eldar library and hate painting gold trim. And it is perfection
XD !
Sisters....number 3, no way my parents would buy me an army worth of metal models, I had the codex though. Walked past a GW after decades of not playing and saw them in the window, immediately went in and bought them
In Not mentioning them at all, you accidentally described white scars players perfectly
Would love to see a Horus Heresy army version of this video. I get that there might not be a huge deal of difference but there is some corking lore that was diluted between the 31stM and 41stM
I'm a primary Necron player and secondary Ravenguard player. None of those descriibe me perfectly. I play the Necrons because i really enjoy AI, robotic factions like the borg and terminator but I'm not a huge fan, just they're my favourite sci-fi type species; however I'm a huge fan of the Geth from mass effect.
I like the ravenguard because I see them as the SAS of warhammer. Dropping deep behind enemy lines and causing damage before retreating back into the night to do it all over again. :)
As a world eater player… we love angron for the man he could of been, the man who fought the high riders and refused to tolerate slavery. Also, we loath the empire and relish the chance to fight ultramarines
Imperial Guard are me. I love WW2 and post WW2 history and games like Bolt Action, Flames of War, Team Yankee etc and I like tanks, lots of tanks.... I was actually thinking about getting some Imp Guard for playing OPR....
lmao that first bit for the dark eldar one is strangely accurate and it fits except I dont delude myself into thinking I'm straight anymore
I’m an Ork and Blood Angels player . The ork half is right. Most of the blood angel points are wrong.(except red is my favorite color )
Would have loved to hear what you would have said about Imperial/Chaos Knights, Deathwatch, and Imperial Guard.
He did mention the guard. It was; History nerd (with a particular interest in the world wars). Likes painting tanks, doesn't like painting faces
Huh, guessed I missed it, I usually listen to these while working on something and sometimes miss parts.@@tomasdawe9379
@@tomasdawe9379 Yeah, first two points fit me, though with asterisk of aircraft instead of tanks
When I was getting into the game, I originally wanted to play Grey Knights but switched to Sisters of Battle afterwards. Checks out.
No Tau ;-;
Oh well maybe he just forgot about it.
Next batch :) keep a look out
My only 40k army is tyranids and yeah pretty spot on. Im also interested in orks, sisters of battle and blood angels and am going to dabble with them in kill team. I have some fleeting interest in guard too but only kreig.
How about a Horus heresy version of the video? I know there will be a bit of repetition but should still be entertaining!
Also what about the Tau, the black Templars and deathwatch?
Raven Guard fan here, guess I'm the odd one that doesn't fit the mold lol
Stan Winston didn't do the effects on Alien that was Carlo Rambaldi and even though he did do some work on The Thing, he was left uncredited. The guy responsible for those iconic effects was a dude called Rob Bottin. Fun video man.
I'm the opposite side of the coin as an Imperial Guard player - sure, I enjoy painting big blocky things, but I LOOOOOVE painting human faces - which is why I currently have about 6000 points of guard where at least 4500 points of them are infantry models - and I'm talking Catachans, Cadians, and models converted from those kits. No forgeworld heads, steel legion gas masks, or death korps for me. More skin please!
Oh, and I also play Dark Eldar, but the majority of those models had their skin...erm...removed.
The 3rd one for Imperial Guard I disagree with because I love painting faces, but the Emperors Children one, fuck it felt like I got called out lol
Hmmm no Deathwatch which is my primary force?
Also love the Imperial Guard bit, though another request, can we deep dive into them per major sub faction? Original faction I started was Catachan
Take a good jab at Mordian 😉
How dare you Northern! Ultramarine player here started playing in 3rd. You nailed why I play them. This is a super funny lighthearted video and I'm here for it. Thanks for getting me laughing on my drive home from work.
You could do a favourite time period/ historical moment in 40K. I.e. what it means if you like the Second War for Armageddon or what if means if you like The Badab War etc.
As a Chaostodes, Genestealer Guard, Robochanicus, Tau’lloween, Sons of Malice, Alpha Loyals, Fat Stompy Gundams, and Hungy Hungy Space Dinosaurs player: my army says about me *”I am fucking indecisive.”*
Barring being "that guy" in dnd pretty much nailed me for UM
Blood Angels devastatingly accurate - born on Halloween, love Vampires, have a huge Vampire Counts army, and I love emo music 😂
An addendum to Blood Angels players, I know this is true for myself and several other Blood Angels players I've met over the years:
We tend to get really deep into Philosophy. And it is this background that makes us get so serious about Sanguinius and our Chapter's place in the lore of both 30K and 40K, because the Blood Angels are just one big Philosophical question: Are we man or beast, and is there even a difference?
Going by the Necrons and Tyranids assessments, I should be playing Emperor's Children
It's surprisingly accurate. Good friend isn't trans but is bisexual and got emperors children. And I am an ork player. My sense of humor is literally shit posts XD
I play several so what do I do pick one or
eldar cry a lot is due to the lack of range support and they've been collecting them since 1st/2nd edition
I can’t believe Tau wasn’t even on the list, that was the one I was looking forward to the most!!
Next video :) There is a reason they are being saved xD
Oh no. I play Tau, but also Tyranids 😮@@northernexile
I felt called out when you started talking about Red Scorpions...
A bit disappointed my man north didn't mention the salamanders but I guess that sums up how most people view them, forgotten and not even worthy of a combat patrol ... 😂
im a main guard player... and you hit me 100%! damn you sir! (+we make a lot of war movie or alien/starship Trooper jokes and references while playing)
For world Eaters it's 8888 pots of BFTBG paint
Necrons and Tyranids don't fit my playgroup based on his description at all. Also sadly no Tau description.
Im a Dark Angels player, I like knights, am a dad and my friends are wrong and do need a stern talking too
Custodes player here, I agree with what you have to say. Unfortunately, Custodes are trash on the table top, lol. Also, I hate grey knights for the same reason Custodes do. After the colossal failure of the space marines during the heresy why instead of leaning on his perfect warrior sons, did he make those 5' 11" mud blood marines?
Hysterical But I think like a few other people said you need a part two for the ones that got missed
12:15 Damn, he's psychic! The one person locally who plays Emperor's Children IS trans... where do you keep your crystal ball, Exile?!?
hey bro, I just wanted to say that I love your old vids (2019)
What you're doing now is definitely a change of direction, but I like that you're doing better.
For the next 40k army, could you include the Blood Ravens (my chapter)?
Funnily enough, as someone who's favorite army is Sisters
I enjoy how they look like women of _war_ , not the super sexual strippers I had grown tired of seeing in games
The armor is actual armor, and combined with the gothic aestetic looks really fire
I do like the nun look, primarily when its combined with the battle armor
They also have a Destiny Dice mechanic, something I enjoy throughly as a Tzeentch fan.
None of this really came to my attention until my dad's friend (an older woman, who hadnt seen alot of 40k before) pointed it out to me, and the models have grown on me since
Had a hysterical laugh at all my mates' armies - hitting the majority of traits with the Dark Angels, Ork/SoB/Death Guard as another mate, and even our Necron boi.... and then you do me dirty with your Tyranids lines! xD Rounding off nicely with World Eaters, where yes - in the darkest nights, I admit to recognising Angron's faults as a weak strategist.. Aint even mad
I was starting to question some of the statements being made and then when you got to Imperial Fists and Imperial Guard you got me down to a T.
Pretty damn close with Orks too, but i was sipping Ribena.
Damnit! 😂
Genestealer Cults, Tau, Black Legion, Knights, Chaos, Black Templars, Ynnari, Deathwatch
You almost completely missed me on the space wolves until point 3.
I 100% have the most misunderstood Primarch. You will all come around eventually and see it.
Creator: I put Chaos Gate 2 on background in my video.
Youtubue: It's a StarCraft!
Curious as to what you think about us word bearer and night lords players
If you had outright said Daddy issues with Blood angels you would have had 100% but the rest rang true especially the emo stuff.
Gotta give this one a like for the EXTREME call out I got as a Tyranids players, who was definitely leaning towards playing Adepta Sororitas before I picked up my bugs.
Salamanders!?!? :O
Can't believe I got typecast as both dark eldar and emperor's children and I'm gonna go home to paint snikrot
for the record the ork stuff is also accurate
What about those who are into lesser known subfactions of the general popular factions.... like say Fallen, which would be an interesting one to have an opinion on.
Seeing as I am building Death Spectres, which require me to import custom insignia and weaponry from the US, I think my army says I am skint!!
Alright. Nightlords, space wolves and orcs. What in the world am I supposed to be like
Im a salamanders and custodes player and i agree with what you said apart from grey knights. I think grey kinghts are awesome in every way apart from the fact that they are assholes that kill innocents just on the off chance they turn to chaos.
I'm in terrible shape which is probably why I keep loosing with my Custodes.
North... you didn't do Salamanders. Part 2 now required
Imperial knights:
1. You are obviously the most important person in the game and are insensed you have been forgotten.
2. You are either the biggest power gamer in your group, or dont even know what the word "meta" is. There is no in between.
3. You have another army, not because you wanted to play something else, but you wanted to fuck up with the $40 models instead of the $150 model.
I love it, it’s like horoscopes but for your legion.
Black Templar:
- you’re actually a religious zealot
- you dislike anything foreign (including people)
- I’ll let someone add a last one
Tyranids also have a very strong appeal to the Timmy in you. You missed Gene Stealer Cults.
Time stamps for each Faction?
My boy Ferrus Manus and his boys getting forgotten as usual...
I love and play Necron, but Rogal Dorn is my spirit animal.
You're scary on spot :D And thanks for the encouragement!
I liked your tea-sipping comment about Necrons in the other video.
You caught me while I was sipping tea.
Spot on with the LoV, I Rock n'Stone so much that all my boxes are still sealed
LOL Ork player here. He said mental capacity of a 3 year old. I literally said out loud "Yeah that's fair", and then you made the comment about how we would take that assessment and say "that's fair enough". And bro I'm laughing so hard. 😂😂😂
Hahahaha :)
Well I can't grow my hair because it becomes an afro and my fingers are unusually short for a 6ft guy but the rest of the dark eldar stuff hit the mark somehow. Still got all my Avenged Sevenfold CDs in the car.
Guard player here, yup all of that sounds about right 😂😂
How I wish Space Wolves were Vikings in space
Would love to hear your take on the Chad's known as the Iron Warriors.
Me, an Ork player: ...fair enough *sips hot liquid*
AdMech player here. I'm a medical doctor who finished med school with a straight A and is always trying to outshine his colleagues, so I guess you got me 🙈 Awesome video by the way, really, really funny!
Custodies - you don't want to paint a shit load of modles
