The Imperial Guard. In a universe where everything else is a genetically modified supersoldier, highly advanced alien with technology indistinguishable from magic, literal hellspawn, or intergalactic eating machine, these guys take to the field with nothing more than a flak jacket, a glorified laser pointer, and _balls of steel._
+marek michalak I think spanish paratrooper units have a similar motto. something like: - Paratroopers never die, we just regroup in heaven (los paracaidistas nunca mueren, solo nos reunimos en el cielo). But i don't know if they only ones that use that kind of phrase.
Evan Michael Sutka It is the average and there are a LOT of guardsmen, think of it like "for every guardsman deployed 600000 die some time in the first day, the rest survive much longer and even out the time to 15 hours.
@@theotv5522 Ask Leviathan how that worked out for them. The GUARD...with literally no one else helping them stopped Leviathan in it's tracks. When the Space Marines showed up Leviathan was pushed off course and had to go in another direction to find biomass to make up it's losses.
Bear Grizzly Actually some Basilisks, guardsmen with 'nade launchers and few Russes would perfectly hold the line... for only 5 minutes.... Sad but true.
You know, the Imperial Guard get a lot of shit for being weak and being cowards, but when you consider what they are up against, they are pretty damn badass.

"What is the strongest weapon of mankind? The god-machines of the Adeptus Mechanicus? No! The Astartes Legions? No! The tank? The lasgun? The fist? Not at all! Courage and courage alone stands above them all!"
“Your foe is well equipped, well-trained, battle-hardened. He believes his gods are on his side. Let him believe what he will. We have the tanks on ours.” - Colonel Joachim Pfeiff, 14th Armored Regiment, Death Korps of Krieg
I am a Guardsman i am marching on! I am expendable and this is my song! My faith is steel and my heart shall be strong! I am expendable and this is my song!
Too weak to bear the firepower an Astartes can. Too poorly-armoured to weather fire the fire an Astartes can. Too slow, inaccurate and feeble to match an Astartes in lethality. But the Guard are many. Their Lasguns will bring you down like a swarm of wasps. Their tanks will roll over any opposition like an iron fist, and their artillery will have the enemy cowering in their foxholes, praying to their heathen Gods. The Astartes can steal the glory in their last-minute attacks all they want. It's the Guard who do the real work.
Even if a single Astartes is worth 100 Guardsmen... so what? All the Astartes in the galaxy couldn't bring down the Imperial Guard. There might be all of only 10 million space marines in the Imperium. The Imperial Guard has lost that many soldiers in one fight that they've still won and barely batted an eyelash. They number in the trillions.
The leman russ is the best tank in the fluff and tabletop. I love watching space marine players eyes bulge when i field a company of executioners, 3 shot plasma that doesnt overheat? Yes please, punishers and exterminators for the dakka, and when land raiders are afoot, vanquishers. Long live the Astra Militarum.
Imagine if the Imperial Guard could use Webway Gates... Instead of having to be transported by ship, they can just pour themselves on the battlefield. The whole company wiped out? Send in 10 more. Jesus christ, they'd be invincible.
+Bilbo Baggins Not invincible, unbeatable. Invincible would mean unkillable. And they are a lot of things but that is not it :D And a fact: The Emperor was working on an acess to the Eldar Webway when the Horus Heresy started and Magnus the Red (primarch of the Thousand Sons) destroyed his whole work by accident. There is an access to the Eldar Webway in the Imperial Palace, held shut by the Emperor from the Golden Throne and guarded by an elite company of the Adeptus Custodes and Grey Knights, since Magnus the Red fucked the webway up and now it is filled with demons.
CZProtton Aren't the Custodes Super Space Marines times ten? Only a hundred of them defeated millions of Orks with only one to two casualties! And aren't Grey Knights elite Space Marines who also are super-psykers with the Emperors own geneseed? You'd think that a couple of Daemons would be no problem to them. But yes. The Imperial Guards only weakness is limited transport. They can only carry as many as their ships allow them. With webways they would be damn unbeatable.
Bilbo Baggins Yes and no. They are super space marines, but not that good. Not even 100 titans could do that, probably... well... maybe 100 titans could. Not 100 custodes. And you underestimate the power of demons. Gray knights are specialists at dealing with them and still have a bad time fighting one.
Bilbo Baggins He is kind of a beast, one of a kind kind of guy. But we have demons, especialy the higher ones, that gave a lot of trouble even to primarchs. Sanguinius had a lot of trouble with a bloodthirster of Khorne and he was one of The Dauntless Few, so one of the most powerfull primarchs. Deamons are no joke in the WH40k. Kaldor Draigo killed them since he knew nearly all of their names which meant he could make them dance waltz if he wanted to.
Brendan Thomas Most servants of the Imperium have heard of Khrone, Slaneesh, Nurgle, and Tzeentch at one point on another. Malal, on the other hand, is only worshipped by a handful of space marines. Of course he would become a champion of Khrone.
@@justkrieger8850 yet your one of the most effective and popular. Take more pride in yourself kriegsman, your an imperial guardsman like myself and countless others! Show your pride to be serving the emperor, you and all guardsman have held the line for 10,000 years! Against the worst this galaxy has to throw at it, against ourselves, against xenos, unflinching and uncompromising! Do you wish to honor the emperor or do you wish to weaken his name! Sincerely ~ an imperial guardsman
Of everything in the 40k universe. Astarties, Tau, Tyranids, Elder, Orks, Chaos. The real Badasses are the Imperial Guard. For we are but simple humans. A Farmer, a Shopkeeper, a Factory Worker. We are Fathers, Sons, and Brothers. We are nothing more than mere humans fighting against the tides of Chaos and Xenos over and over again. If you can’t think of anything more badass then the soldier that is fighting for his people and family. Then what is there. For we are nothing but humans. Standing strong and proud against those that would seek to destroy us, humiliate us, and yet we continue fighting for we know that even if we die. That not only will the Imperium. But Humanity as a whole will continue in our struggle against a Galaxy that wants us dead. For the Imperium! For the Emperor! For Humanity!
@@justkrieger8850 why does every Krueger act like they are special. You do you duty for the Emperor like the rust of us Imperial Guard. Your just one regiment. I’m a Tallarn fan boy myself and have been irrelevant much longer than you boys so relax. When I say Imperial Guard I mean the entirety of the Guard. Not just a select few. New get back in line brother. We have Orks to smash. You have my Saber.
This makes me proud that I somehow found a way to build an Imperial Guardsman in Fallout NV almost by accident. I just happened to notice I had combat armor and Boone's Beret, and was currently carrying a Laser Rifle and Combat Knife as my only weapons. Also I had a Luck score of 10, which would explain why there was only one guardsman XD
I bought the NCR veteran ranger model for wasteland warfare. Now he blows the heads off of a different kind of "Legion" as an honorary and quite convincing Vindicare assassin.
dmvh222 at book they had exoskeleton that protect them like powerarmor of spacemarines, they can jump realy high, fly, they have massive weapon loads including nuclear rockets...
Ironic that Patton believed in reincarnation, which exists in 40k. "All right, you sons of bitches. You know how I feel. I'll be proud to lead you wonderful guys in battle anytime, anywhere. That's all." One could easily imagine the soul of General George S. Patton, "Old Blood and Guts" himself, reincarnating in the form of an Imperial Guard general, tens of thousands of years later.
You know, there are a lot of people out there that say "Warhammer is just a bunch of big guns. It is what the writers could think was the most overpowered was at the time and blah, blah, blah." While Warhammer is extremely powerful, it isn't over powered... The reason i say that is for one reason. The enemies the Imperium faces are just as powerful if not more powerful so you cant say they are overpowered when in their own universe, they are evenly matched. They are just overpowered when they go up against your puny Spartans or Jedi's.
abaddou1 Also, you can't forget that Bolter shots explode on impact and are also rocket propelled. So imagine trying to block a hundred, rapid-fire, rocket propelled, slugs that explode once tempered with. Even if the Jedi could manage to deflect them all, his Lightsabre would set off the explosion.
For that weak sack of flesh that you so gleefully mock is no super soldier, no immortal warrior, no creature cursed by chaos like you. He is a man, an imperial guardsman drawn from some forgotten corner of the Imperium to fight for his species and for the safety of the people he loves. He is a factory worker, a farmer, a storekeeper, a father, a brother, a son, a mere man. And against creatures like you, teeming and numberless, powered by the very will of thirsting gods......... He holds the line. He has held the line for ten thousand Years.
Nothing like an armor column of three baneblades, a pair of stormlords, and dozens of leman russes(?) charging on a pathetic eldar hold out pinned between an IG bunker filled with catachans and heavy weapons, a horde of conscripts that just swarmed the right flank, and ogryn/stormtrooper strike teams pushing on the left!
***** I had a sufficient amount of anti armor that any monstrous creatures would have been torn apart. My storms were kitted for anti armour duty and most of my heavy weapons teams were autocannons and lascannons. Though the russes were 50/50 executioner vanquisher.
"Enemies of the Imperium, hear me. You have come here to die! The Immortal Emperor is with us, and we are invincible. His Soldiers will strike you down. His War Machines will crush you under their treads. His mighty guns will bring the very sky crashing down upon you. You cannot win. The Emperor has given us His greatest weapon to wield. So make yourselves ready. We are the First Kronus Regiment, and today is our Victory Day!" Lukas Alexander, to the Blood Ravens 3rd Company (DOW: DC) "To each of us falls a task. And all The Emperor requires of us Guardsmen is that we stand the line and we die fighting. It is what we do best. We die standing," General Sturnn to Chaplain Varnus (DOW: WA) I don't care what people say about Lukas Alexander, he is one of my favorite Imperial Guard officers. Here is a list of the others; Vance Stubbs, Ibram Gaunt, Ursarkar Creed, Carus Brom, Anton Gebbet, Sebastian Yarrick, and Doran Farrier.
@@johnarcher6150 Cain was no General's favorite. He broke protocol constantly and lead his regiment in directions against orders all the damn time. He did amazing things, legendary things. He is the only living being to survive Necron teleportation for example. However he still went against orders repeatedly. My favorite one being he took a penal legion through it's mission and not only survived but kept the penal group mostly alive while doing it! Remember penal legions are sent to missions expected to have 90+% casualty rates.
Follow your orders, remember your training, watch each other's backs, and if you're very VERY lucky...you can live long enough to die knowing that the Space Marines will get all the credit for your hard work.

For all those new to Dawn Of War,let me give you same advice on how to play with the Imperial Guard: 1)Get the Baneblade 2)Get the Baneblade and most importantly... 3)GET THE F*CKING BANEBLADE!
+Fluffy Mc. Potatoe Pies Hehe, this was exactly what I was thinking when reading the original comment. I just had to add _"...and commissars. Lots of commissars. Field executions are such a great motivation!"_
This is my imperial guard analogy: Think of a chaos marine tactical squad Now think of a imperial guard regiment Think of the chaos tactical squad as a incredibly fat man Think of the guardsmen as a never-ending swarm of pies… Now imagine tasking this fat man (chaos) as being tasked to eat (/fight) all these pie's (the IG) Now for the first couple the pies he's gonna be able to wolf them down pretty easily However, after lets say 10 pies the fat mans gonna begin to struggle Eventually if the fat man tries to eat any more his stomach will rupture But the swarm of pie's never seems to end and eventually his stomach can't take anymore his stomach ruptures and he dies… And there you have a weird way of looking at a IG victory
"With a dutiful heart in my breast, and vigor in my breath, and a ceaseless fire burning in my bones; I will fear no evil...and I will fight until death. For it is in your grace, I shall know no fear." -Private Tycus Findley; 482nd Death Korps Legion killed in action after charging the heretic Astartes of Khorne; killed 48 heretic guardsmen and 1 Khornish marine, before raising the flag of the imperium upon the fort...before then succumbing to his wounds. May his soul rest at the Emperor's side...and may the Emperor bless this place as one of his temples. For the Emperor.
Good soldiers are like good ammunition. You send them into an area to cause as much damage as possible. You can spend a lot of money on a few good shots that may be wasted, but are unequaled when they hit their mark (space marines). Alternatively, you could spend the same money on countless more rounds (imperial guard), And when all are put down range, your target is sure to have fallen. And if you find that your gun has been emptied, you can rest easy in the knowledge that there is always more where that came from.
Imagine putting the imperial guard into any other Sci fi universe. They'd crush the hell out of anything, the Galactic Empire ain't got shit on the Guard. The arachnids from star ship troopers are just Tyranids but weaker. Navi from avatar are nothing more than a nuisance to the guard. The list goes on, as do the legions of guardsmen marching forth fir the glory of the Emperor and the Imperium
I remember years ago, an ex-friend tried to get me into 40k tabletop. I told him if I did play, it'd be with the Imperial Guard. He asked why, because everything is cooler than them. Cooler than ordinary humans holding the line against enemies many times their own strength? Hell naw!!!
A single space marine is on their own a one man army. And in a full chapter of them there's a good thousand of them. A single guardsman is not. But they are part of a full army, which is one of several thousand such armies that is marching into the fight. And that's before their tanks even show up.
No. a star sized gun that shoots planet sized guns that shoot spaceships that shoot baneblades that have the cannons altered to shoot out space marines dual wielding heavy bolters might have something resembling 10% of enuff dakka.
“Enemies of the Imperium hear me! You have come here to die, for the immortal Emperor is with us and we are invincible. His soldiers will strike you down. His war machines will crush you under their treads, and his mighty guns will bring the very sky crashing down upon you. So make yourselves ready, you cannot win”
Holy shit! I just realized that one of my drill sergeants must've been a warhammer40k fan because we sang this in cadence a few times in Ft.Benning during company runs.
If there was ever a human being who could school Commissar Yarrick on how to out-fight an Ork, it would be George S. Patton. "An entire WORLD at war, and I'm left out of it?!? God will NOT allow this to happen!"
If you know no fear then you know no bravery. To overcome fear you must be brave. Guardsmen are more brave than Spacemarine and more human than Spacemarine. Trillions of Guardsmen stand and fight the foul Xeno, the vile Mutant, and the foolish traitor. Let it be known that in a galaxy of monsters, aliens, superhumans, mutants, and traitors the Guardsmen stand and fight them all and fight them despite thier mere existence as a human. The bravest of humanity is not the Spacemarine, but the Guardsmen who spits in the face of death and demands more. Imperial Guard deserve just as much love as Spacemarines.
The Imperial guard aren't really..designed for offence, that is more the area where the space marines would work better. an IG armies standard military strategy is to bunker down, dig in and create defensive fortifications. Basically "the enemy will crash upon this fortress like water upon the rocks" Plus, the IG have some god damn awesome armoured corps, especially the Basalisk which is just guuuuuuuuugh so goooooooooooood. XD "Oh you wanna advance on my fortress?! BASILISK ARTILLERY STRIKE, BLOW EM APART FROM MILES AWAY" XD Plus..Ogryn's man.
The space marines are more offensively minded but too small in number to actually hold an offence for long, that's why artistes are usually the ones doing hit and run attacks so that the IG offense can survive long enough.
The Imperial Guard. In a universe where everything else is a genetically modified supersoldier, highly advanced alien with technology indistinguishable from magic, literal hellspawn, or intergalactic eating machine, these guys take to the field with nothing more than a flak jacket, a glorified laser pointer, and _balls of steel._

CZProtton What of Kaldor Draigo? He massacres Deamons on a daily basis
Bilbo Baggins He is kind of a beast, one of a kind kind of guy. But we have demons, especialy the higher ones, that gave a lot of trouble even to primarchs. Sanguinius had a lot of trouble with a bloodthirster of Khorne and he was one of The Dauntless Few, so one of the most powerfull primarchs. Deamons are no joke in the WH40k. Kaldor Draigo killed them since he knew nearly all of their names which meant he could make them dance waltz if he wanted to.
life of a baddass guardsman that survives:
was sent into battle at the rear end of the line, the enemy ran out of men before he got to the front.
also the river of blood drown a few enemies
Promoted to veteran sergeant and assigned to regimental command.
Steve Son Became a champion of Khrone.
Frank G Nah, Champion of Malal
Brendan Thomas Most servants of the Imperium have heard of Khrone, Slaneesh, Nurgle, and Tzeentch at one point on another. Malal, on the other hand, is only worshipped by a handful of space marines. Of course he would become a champion of Khrone.

Of everything in the 40k universe. Astarties, Tau, Tyranids, Elder, Orks, Chaos.
The real Badasses are the Imperial Guard. For we are but simple humans. A Farmer, a Shopkeeper, a Factory Worker. We are Fathers, Sons, and Brothers. We are nothing more than mere humans fighting against the tides of Chaos and Xenos over and over again.
If you can’t think of anything more badass then the soldier that is fighting for his people and family. Then what is there. For we are nothing but humans. Standing strong and proud against those that would seek to destroy us, humiliate us, and yet we continue fighting for we know that even if we die. That not only will the Imperium. But Humanity as a whole will continue in our struggle against a Galaxy that wants us dead.

Starship troopers from movie or book? Cause Imperial Guard > Movie starship troopers, but i dont know about book.
dmvh222 at book they had exoskeleton that protect them like powerarmor of spacemarines, they can jump realy high, fly, they have massive weapon loads including nuclear rockets...

You know, there are a lot of people out there that say "Warhammer is just a bunch of big guns. It is what the writers could think was the most overpowered was at the time and blah, blah, blah." While Warhammer is extremely powerful, it isn't over powered... The reason i say that is for one reason. The enemies the Imperium faces are just as powerful if not more powerful so you cant say they are overpowered when in their own universe, they are evenly matched. They are just overpowered when they go up against your puny Spartans or Jedi's.
Jedi's would kick the asses of the shitty-mitty space marines
Why? Cuz lihtsaber can cut chainsword and can proteckt aganist bolters
Domonkos Nagy but if an ork belives his choppa' "will cut da humies sparkly sword" then it will

Domonkos Nagy Oh yeah? Try to block a plasma gun shot with your flashlight see what happens.
abaddou1 Also, you can't forget that Bolter shots explode on impact and are also rocket propelled. So imagine trying to block a hundred, rapid-fire, rocket propelled, slugs that explode once tempered with. Even if the Jedi could manage to deflect them all, his Lightsabre would set off the explosion.

I don’t know what’s better about this video - the video itself or the comments bragging about a fictional space army
I wish I knew this song in basic training. The drill sergeants would have loved it.
This song has been around for a while, they probably had heard it, especially as it was written for the US military branches.
For that weak sack of flesh that you so gleefully mock is no super soldier, no immortal warrior, no creature cursed by chaos like you. He is a man, an imperial guardsman drawn from some forgotten corner of the Imperium to fight for his species and for the safety of the people he loves. He is a factory worker, a farmer, a storekeeper, a father, a brother, a son, a mere man. And against creatures like you, teeming and numberless, powered by the very will of thirsting gods......... He holds the line. He has held the line for ten thousand Years.
How to become a general in the Imperial Guard
1: Survive for 5 hours.
2: PROFIT
Clay Pidgeon 5 hours? impressive promote thar corpse.
Nothing like an armor column of three baneblades, a pair of stormlords, and dozens of leman russes(?) charging on a pathetic eldar hold out pinned between an IG bunker filled with catachans and heavy weapons, a horde of conscripts that just swarmed the right flank, and ogryn/stormtrooper strike teams pushing on the left!
Then you can kiss your ass goodbye
Othing that would stand against that with any chance would be a titan, and only just. I'd put money on the guard though
axel hansen UNTIL, TANK EATINNG CARNIFEEXESESS
***** I had a sufficient amount of anti armor that any monstrous creatures would have been torn apart. My storms were kitted for anti armour duty and most of my heavy weapons teams were autocannons and lascannons. Though the russes were 50/50 executioner vanquisher.
Alvor Real Tyranid Version of Creed. Your Argument Is Invalid, Entire Hive Fleet Below Bush.
"Enemies of the Imperium, hear me. You have come here to die! The Immortal Emperor is with us, and we are invincible. His Soldiers will strike you down. His War Machines will crush you under their treads. His mighty guns will bring the very sky crashing down upon you. You cannot win. The Emperor has given us His greatest weapon to wield. So make yourselves ready. We are the First Kronus Regiment, and today is our Victory Day!"

"To each of us falls a task. And all The Emperor requires of us Guardsmen is that we stand the line and we die fighting. It is what we do best. We die standing,"

is that first part Rimmy's speech nice
@@thehuntersburrow7453 Rimmy quoted the game.
BUt sir, what about Cain?
@@johnarcher6150 Cain was no General's favorite. He broke protocol constantly and lead his regiment in directions against orders all the damn time. He did amazing things, legendary things. He is the only living being to survive Necron teleportation for example. However he still went against orders repeatedly. My favorite one being he took a penal legion through it's mission and not only survived but kept the penal group mostly alive while doing it! Remember penal legions are sent to missions expected to have 90+% casualty rates.
Follow your orders, remember your training, watch each other's backs, and if you're very VERY lucky...you can live long enough to die knowing that the Space Marines will get all the credit for your hard work.

Lyrics
I've got the reach and the teeth of a killin' machine
With a need to bleed you when the light goes green
Best believe, I'm in a zone to be
From my Yin to my Yang to my Yang Tze
Put a grin on my chin when you come to me
'Cuz I'll win, I'm one-of-a-kind and I'll bring death
To the place you're about to be
Another river of blood runnin' under my feet
Forged in a fire lit long ago, stand next to me
You'll never stand alone
I'm last to leave, but the first to go
Lord, make me dead before you make me old
I feed on the fear of the devil inside of the
Enemy faces in my sights
Aim with the hand, shoot with the mind
Kill with a heart like arctic ice
I am a Soldier and I'm marching on
(x2)
I am a warrior and this is my song(x2)
I bask in the glow of the rising war
Lay waste to the ground of an enemy shore
Wade through the blood spilled on the floor, and if
Another one stands I'll kill some more
Bullet in the breech and a fire in me
Like a cigarette thrown to gasoline, if
Death don't bring you fear I swear
You'll fear these marching feet
Come to the nightmare, come to me
Deep down in the dark where the devil be
In the maw with the jaws and the razor teeth
Where the brimstone burns and the angel weeps
Call to the gods if I cross your path and
My silhouette hangs like a body bag
Hope is a moment now long past
The shadow of death is the one I cast
I am a Soldier I'm marching on
I am a warrior and this is my song
My eyes are steel and my gaze is long
I am a warrior and this is my song
When I just going to shoot the bastard
We are going to cut out their living guts
And use them.. to grease the threads of our tanks
We're gonna murder those loudy bastards by the push!
Now I live lean and I mean to inflict the grief
And the least of me's still out of your reach
The killing machine's gonna do the deed
Until the river runs dry and my last breath leaves
Chin in the air with a head held high
I'll stand in the path of the enemy line
Feel no fear, know my pride
For God and Country I'll end your life
I am a Soldier I'm marching on
I am a warrior and this is my song
My eyes are steel and my gaze is long
I am a warrior and this is my song
(Oh rigt 97 bitches.. you know how hard I am.)

For all those new to Dawn Of War,let me give you same advice on how to play with the Imperial Guard:
1)Get the Baneblade
2)Get the Baneblade
and most importantly...
3)GET THE F*CKING BANEBLADE!
I beat the campaign with them never even used the baneblade
+Matija Kopic 4) Give it a few hundred human shields. Preferably in chimeras.
+Fluffy Mc. Potatoe Pies Hehe, this was exactly what I was thinking when reading the original comment. I just had to add _"...and commissars. Lots of commissars. Field executions are such a great motivation!"_

Yep. And basilisks. To soften them up so they don't shoot the baneblade or its' techpriests.
Fluffy Mc. Potatoe Pies With all this dakka, I am not sure that we still need the Baneblade.
14 yearz ...and still luv thiz song...humiez get good song.
The question isn't "How many will it take to knock me down" but instead "How many are they going to use"
This has convinced me to create an imperial guard army
Im making one after I finish my space marine army
Break it down, comissar!
This is my imperial guard analogy:
Think of a chaos marine tactical squad
Now think of a imperial guard regiment
Think of the chaos tactical squad as a incredibly fat man
Think of the guardsmen as a never-ending swarm of pies…
Now imagine tasking this fat man (chaos) as being tasked to eat (/fight) all these pie's (the IG)
Now for the first couple the pies he's gonna be able to wolf them down pretty easily
However, after lets say 10 pies the fat mans gonna begin to struggle
Eventually if the fat man tries to eat any more his stomach will rupture
But the swarm of pie's never seems to end and eventually his stomach can't take anymore his stomach ruptures and he dies… And there you have a weird way of looking at a IG victory
Jesse Pinkman Nurgle likes your analogy :)
Junone King Slaanesh is cancelling their 3 o'clock as well. You might want to start panicking.
That moment you realize that the Imperial Guard uses zerg tactics (or the other way around)...
+Jesse Pinkman Just bring a Baneblade to wash this scum with fire and bring down the very sky upon their heads and the war is over
Think of it as what the Russians did to stop the German onslaught by throwing men into the meat grinder in order to clog it up
Who needs Space Marines when the guard hold the line.

May his soul rest at the Emperor's side...and may the Emperor bless this place as one of his temples.
For the Emperor.
Good soldiers are like good ammunition. You send them into an area to cause as much damage as possible. You can spend a lot of money on a few good shots that may be wasted, but are unequaled when they hit their mark (space marines). Alternatively, you could spend the same money on countless more rounds (imperial guard), And when all are put down range, your target is sure to have fallen. And if you find that your gun has been emptied, you can rest easy in the knowledge that there is always more where that came from.
I was expecting the song from Starship Troopers 3, but this is even better!
Imagine putting the imperial guard into any other Sci fi universe. They'd crush the hell out of anything, the Galactic Empire ain't got shit on the Guard.
The arachnids from star ship troopers are just Tyranids but weaker.
Navi from avatar are nothing more than a nuisance to the guard.
The list goes on, as do the legions of guardsmen marching forth fir the glory of the Emperor and the Imperium

I was like “wow this is a really upbeat and fun song”
I remember years ago, an ex-friend tried to get me into 40k tabletop. I told him if I did play, it'd be with the Imperial Guard. He asked why, because everything is cooler than them.
Cooler than ordinary humans holding the line against enemies many times their own strength? Hell naw!!!
This video never gets old for me.
The imperial guard, the hammer of the emporer.
This is surprisingly catchy
A single space marine is on their own a one man army. And in a full chapter of them there's a good thousand of them.
A single guardsman is not. But they are part of a full army, which is one of several thousand such armies that is marching into the fight.
And that's before their tanks even show up.
Well the guard has billions of soldiers while space Marines have maybe 1 million
When you have more people than your enemy amunition
That's the imperial guard in nutshell

This song was not created for WH40k. It has been around for a long time. It was created in 2009 for the US military branches.
People be shitting on the Imperial guard while in fact they're the ones who pull their weight the most
The Imperial guard are but mortal men who will stand in the way of any of mankind's enemy and still prevail
I love the use of the Patton quotes in this video. If General Patton had been in 40K, he'd be a Lord General Militant for sure.
If there was ever a human being who could school Commissar Yarrick on how to out-fight an Ork, it would be George S. Patton. "An entire WORLD at war, and I'm left out of it?!? God will NOT allow this to happen!"
If you know no fear then you know no bravery. To overcome fear you must be brave. Guardsmen are more brave than Spacemarine and more human than Spacemarine. Trillions of Guardsmen stand and fight the foul Xeno, the vile Mutant, and the foolish traitor. Let it be known that in a galaxy of monsters, aliens, superhumans, mutants, and traitors the Guardsmen stand and fight them all and fight them despite thier mere existence as a human. The bravest of humanity is not the Spacemarine, but the Guardsmen who spits in the face of death and demands more. Imperial Guard deserve just as much love as Spacemarines.
this vid is amazing, i just love the shots of the artillery!
The Imperial guard aren't really..designed for offence, that is more the area where the space marines would work better. an IG armies standard military strategy is to bunker down, dig in and create defensive fortifications. Basically "the enemy will crash upon this fortress like water upon the rocks"
Plus, the IG have some god damn awesome armoured corps, especially the Basalisk which is just guuuuuuuuugh so goooooooooooood. XD "Oh you wanna advance on my fortress?! BASILISK ARTILLERY STRIKE, BLOW EM APART FROM MILES AWAY" XD Plus..Ogryn's man.
Hence the "Guard" part I guess
also
SHATTER THEIR SKIES!
Aye aye XD
And damn right, Earthshaker rounds man. That is where that quote is from right? .> -forgetful-
Andrew Enigma nailed it
Heheheh XD
"ALL RIGHT MAGGOTS, WE'LL BURY YOU HERE!"
The space marines are more offensively minded but too small in number to actually hold an offence for long, that's why artistes are usually the ones doing hit and run attacks so that the IG offense can survive long enough.
