52:40 Small correction. He didn’t think “if prospero burns, I deserve it” but rather if I die, I deserve it. He expected his planet and his sons to be fine. As soon as he learned they were going for the manual exterminatus, he said screw that noise and went to save his sons.
There's a bunch of other stuff going on during and before the burning of Prospero but even for the burning it's kind of magnus's fault. While reading the books magnus did have this idea that his punishment should extend to his sons as well, but instead of saying anything about it, he hid the arrival the Space Wolves and Custodes until they just showed up. Blame does fall on Erebus and Lorgar yet again, but also Horus for misleading Russ and if I'm remembering correctly the warp was interfering in Russ's comms because he was trying to get Magnus to surrender and come with him peacefully (I think for once it wasn't alpha legion messing with comms). Also Amon Ra being their version of Typhon and placing the remembrancer spy among the Space Wolves.
“Perturabo placed one hand on his shoulder, the other at his neck, pulling him close for a fraternal embrace. His next words were for Magnus alone. ‘You came a heartbeat from death,’ he whispered. ‘By all rights, you should have died. And our father’s Great Crusade would have been robbed of one of its brightest sons, brighter even than dear Horus. More importantly, I would have lost a dear brother. There are none among our kin I regard as highly as you, so promise me you won’t risk your life like that again.’ “
Hearing Perterabo calling Magnus’s hair magnificent i cant help but imagine a far-off timeline of Perty rattling off his new city plans for a planet while he does Magnus’s hair
A few stuff worth mentioning: 1. Magnus had a secret plan to delve further into the warp, he had Perurabo build him a gadget. Good old Peter built it and broke it in front of Magnus to remind him of Big E's warnings. A cute little moment between bff primarchs and good foreshadowing for Magnus' fall. 2. Ahriman befriended a Space Wolf rune priest and showed him some of his psychic research and abilities. That Space Wolf proceeded to share all of those secrets at Nikeah to shame the Thousand Sons while presenting himself as entirely different. 3. Magnus did try and convince Horus to remain loyal. But apparently, Erebus seemed more trustworthy despite having been exposed as a liar by Magnus.
@@RougeMephilesClone Nah. If Perturabo hadn't broken the machine, Magnus would never have had to resort to using wacky sorcery rituals involving mass sacrifice/burning out shitloads of mortal psykers. Plus he could have built in a ton of psychic power sinks to make it totally safe to use. Then again, Perturabo didn't understand Warp shenanigans, so he probably built it wrong in the first place.
You see he didn't give up his eye, he gave up his ability to see the incredibly obvious stuff right in front of him, like "hmmm maybe he put this barrier up for a reason"
He's willingly blind. He pretends to do what he's told, ignores warnings, does whatever he wants, and cryes after. "Maybe this entity is the warp danger." "Maybe I should stand for my magic, instead of doing it at everyone's back, or not do it at all" "Maybe trying to save the day, specifically with magic will create more confusion" I'm pretty sure the eye is a reference to Osiris ignoring Set, willingly blind until Set betray him; and Horus Eye is the sacrifice needed to push Set back; but you need to be willing to see all, not just the things that pushes your way.
Also about who loves his "sons" more: when Magnus was rejecting the emperor's offer of redemption (during the siege of Terra!) because the cost was sacrificing all his sons, he asked Vulcan if he would accept such an offer being in his place. Vulcan lowered his gaze, said no and powered his hammer.
Big E, just give the sons]] retirement! Heck, give em penitent crusade like the Khan did until the legion dies out. Why are you like this, you overgrown golden caveman??
@@sparkraido but you see while he would have made the same choice, he did not have to. that scene was more of Vulcan admitting that he understood magnus, that given the same option he would have done the same. it was him saying "i understand your actions and will not condemn you for them, but we are enemies so we must fight"
@bradhoefler8650 man vulkan is loyal to the bone poor magnus was faced with a choice he couldn't make the emperor just told him Choose death of death mf knew he would not stand his own sons in the back to take his place back next to big e
I always saw tzeentch taking his eye as a little metaphorical. His right eye also being a symbol of his ability to view himself, to introspect. Magnus was tricked into blinding himself to his own faults which led to his arrogance, then his fall/ascension.
There is a weird symmetry between Magus's missing his right eye and Kairos. Kairos's right head can see all possible futures, and after after sacrificing his right eye Magus begins to lack forethought about the worst of his decisions, only caring about what helps most in that moment.
@@aguspuig6615 yeah but kinda in reverse. Odin sacrifices his eye for wisdom and knowledge where as Magnus unknowingly sacrificed his wisdom by sacrificing his eye.
Aye, it's meant to be a twisted mockery of it. Odin, Tarhunt, Horus, the Graeae, all lack at least one eye and became more wise/clever as a result. But for Magnus, it was merely an opening for Chaos. Once he agreed to that small act, he became more susceptible to every other temptation Tzeentch dangled his way.
Smiles in psychic bug power. Geee I wonder where all of that psychic energy went.Oh, what is this wonderful platter of incredibly intelligent psychic energy?That's now been given to my bugs for a buffet. Oh well time to have lunch. That's right.We eat your lunch and drink your milk shake
Magnus was the Primark who fell to Chaos for his sons. Everything he did wrong was either for them or for the Emperor. "The road to hell is paved with good intentions".
Except for the time he killed his son to prevent a warning of the wolves approach, the time he killed his son for killing Alivia sureka, the many, many times he almost killed Ahriman...
Mortarion disagrees. Wasn't that the whole reason he sold out to Nurgle after Typhus fucked his legion over? I mean, he was probably never going to be loyal to begin with, but the Death Guard likely would've been *Traitors* but not *Heretics* if Typhus didn't exist.
@@isengarde9490 yeah, Mortarion fell bc he couldn’t bear to see his Legion suffer any more. Its why he’s my favourite; his story is all about him being absolutely awful but still having more love for his sons than either of the fathers he knew
if theres ever a 40k equivalent to the end times, therell be a moment where magnus andruss and all their sons will face a common enemy: a vacuum cleaner
I'm legitimately impressed they were able to get that many drawings and all the editing done for that skit in the cold opening. incredible shitposts all around.
In an unexpected but somehow not very disappointing move, GW managed to make everyone unhappy no matter whichever side you're on. In other news, water is still wet. More news at 9.
When it comes to warhammer lore, I am a firm believer in “game workshop is dumb as hell, so I’m gonna pick and choose the parts of lore I like and that’s what’s real”
The kind shard, the "Noble Shard of Magnus", was actually used to create the Grey Knight Janus. Magnus was FURIOUS that Malcador just casually used a piece of his soul to make a Grey Knight and it was one of the reasons he rejected a last-minute team switch. Oh, wait, they mentioned that a bit later.
@@blimp9741 To be fair, the situation at the time was a clusterfuck of cluster fucks. Not to mention, Malcador didn't know that Magnus was considering to go switch back since he was too busy trying to salvage the situation when Horus and the traitors went crazy and rebel. It was just bad luck. But I do understand where you're coming from.
another thing, ALL OF MAGNUS DUELS GET INTERRUPTED. Like..in the Duel between him and russ, Magnus is about to deliver a killing Blow to Russ, but then the two actual wolf pets of Russ jump him, distract him and give russ time to recover and hit his eye.
Don't forget the part where Magnus takes a moment to melt the company of Space Wolves that tried to skirt around the duel to get at the last of his sons.
@@gama343 Magnus the mans need 2 extra arms and extra eyes to just be casting spells. Also no wonder russ broke his back, he was carrying the k-sons with his abilities alone.
@@ColdNorth0628you know, Sukuna-like form of Magnus(so not only with additional pair of eyes and arms, but with second mouth) would perfectly fit Tzeench aesthetic Besides enormous power boost
I can just hear Magnus in the distance screaming at DK when they talk about the fight “I PUNCHED OUT ONE HIS HEARTS WHY DOES NO ONE REMEMBER THAT!!!!!” Even though he brought it up later the fact he didn’t after discussing the back breaker just made it hilarious 😂😂😂
I've always had the headcannon that Magnus is extremely intelligent but also extremely emotional leading to his impulsive decision. Warp power is tied to emotions and Magnus is one of the most powerful psykers in the universe. The Eldar have the paths to keep them from falling into the emotional states that led to the Fall but Magnus did not.
This is the awkward episode. Between the worst such as "succulent", 'take a hold of my grippers' 'grab that taco' 'No harm will shall come to You, nor your Magnificent Hair...' and DK's 'air tasting' ...
And in his defense tseench himself was working to ensure that Magnus falls from grace. Can we really blame Magnus for being tricked when the god of tricks tricked him?
TBF the first 10 minutes or so was talking about the recent news regarding the Custodes Codex (I think I might still buy it cos I just got into the hobby, and I don't have any Codices at the moment)
It's a line in TTS once again, paraphrased to "A Caring Parental Figure is the Greatest Defense against the Vileness of Chaos". Had the Emperor seen that he was a father *figure* to the Primarchs, and played that part, there was the chance he could have avoided the worst of the heresy
@Dracobyte one of the recent books had the emperor talk to malcador about the primarchs. He intended to reform the ones that could live after war, and give peace to the ones that could never leave the battlefield.
@@Mare_Man Yes, originally angron was angry due to the butchers nails being unable to be fixed without killing him and big E didnt want to kill his son. In the retcon he is angry because E teleported him away in a extremely out of character move.
I mean, Jaghatai Khan held funerals for his sons, and went crazy because a single one was killed by an ork, then was saddened at having to cut down his own sons when they turned traitor after Prospero. Haven't heard any other primach giving that level of care to their marines
Fun Fact: one of the Primarchs (besides Magnus) who broke the vow of the Council of Nikea the most was actually the Lion. When he and the Dark Angels traveled trough the warp, Daemons attacked their ship and they didn’t know how to fight them effectively, until a Librarian started using his powers. The Lion in that moment revoked the voew until they’re in safe space again, but their Chaplin, Nemiel, was heavily against it and was basically ready to snitch on the Emperor for that. And the Lion, the calm and collected soul he is, punched Nemiel‘s head clean off which was one of the reasons which led to Caliban rebelling against the Lion.
Wow theres a lot of retcons here i wonder who dunnit and also Human-Eldar(Heldar) children existing and being welcomed by the imperium? So you're tellin' me that, that Roboogey x Yvraine shitpost aint far from the fucking truth?
What Bricky in his politically disingenuous "wisdom" is that half-Eldar were literally only in Rogue Trader (AKA first edition, back when the lore wasn't finalised and things like the Sinsei were still a thing and Space Marines weren't transhumans and just the foreign legion in power armour), so they haven't really been canon since 2nd edition. Hopefully this clears things up.
I am upset about the female Custodes. Mainly because their codex is horrible, and I am now afraid that Eldar are gonna fair even worse than with the current detachment. (Which is horrible for balancing, and fluff) And because it shows that if you are not spacemarines - you wont receive any lore. If even Custodes get no new lore - what hope do Aeldari have? A very distressed Eldar.
Thankfully a war has not started in Iran...yet. But if it does one day, as an Iranian fan I just want to say you guys have always been amazing and will be amazing. You are my 1st ever podcast that I have faithfully been following eversince the episode on Kriegs. Love you lots from Iran and here's to more episodes!
Only because of TTS because Magny Magic fucked up royally! Now let me tell you about the Actual Magnus that did nothing wrong known by the moniker The Pious
magnus in a nutshell Magnus: oh noo my hous is burning i have to save my dad voice from a van: i got you buddy i have something that my help Magnus: oh thank you stranger (after using it) ohh my got is fucki*ng flamethrower
Once again, if the Emperor was just 1% of a better father, maybe one of the traitor legions would have remained loyal. If Big E had just said something to the effect of "You are all psykers, to single out one son for his gifts is to be a hypocrite. Especially you, Mortarion." then maybe Magnus would have remained loyal. Also, if Big E had just given Magnus ANY DETAILS on what was in the warp, then maybe he wouldn't have been mislead by Chaos.
People like to blame the Emperor for everything, but in reality the Primarchs all had their own critical flaws. Magnus' was his ego. For the Emperor to put the time i to each Primarchs (all adults by the way) that people say he should have, he would need way more time then is realistically possible.
@@williamings773I think while Big E was correct in his assumption that the webway must be completed to save humanity, he screwed up in trying way too hard to speed run it. He had enough time that he could have at least stopped half of the traitors from turning on him. I will concede it’s not entirely his fault. I’ll be the first to say big e is not the #1 reason that the heresy happened, but definitely he’s in the top 3.
@@williamings773 He could literally talk to Magnus with his psychic powers before they even found the planet Magnus was on. He could literally talk to Magnus any time he wanted. ANY TIME. He had all the time in the world.
If any of the traitors aside from Magnus were to remain loyal it would probably be Morty or Pertie. Konrad was on the edge of insanity, Horus was fully corrupted by the 4, fulgrim had the laer blade(why didn't Big E notice it?) And we still don't know if Alpharius Omegon were loyal or traitor in their entirety.
It’s a shame people forget that while Russ fought Magnus and won: 1- Magnus was directing escape routes for his people. 2- He was helping the Sons via warp against the Wolves. 3- Actually putting up a good fight against Russ. 4- Magnus is a nerd, he wasn’t a battle fanatic like Russ. That he punched a heart of Russ out while all this was going on- speaks more for Russ’ ability to fight, holding back or not.
@@drakeyork241 yeah Magnus is basically the superman of the primarchs. He would blatantly win 19v1 if the story isn't able to nerf him to balance the fight
@@teejay1646 he is a stronger psyker than Malcador, the man who was so strong he made threats to the primarchs such as “I will unmake you” with said threats being treated VERY seriously by the primarch whom was at the time being Vader force choked. Or the time Malcador was being choked out by Mortarian and was still calm enough to question himself as to exactly how much force would be needed to escape from Mortarian’s grasp without being so extreme that Mortarian would hate him further and try to kill him due to his distain for psykers. We can also guess how strong Malcador is based on the fact that his personal throne is decorated with two skulls. One skull being marked II while the other being marked XI. The Roman numerals for 2 and 11, the same numbers as the “missing” legions. Need I explain further. If magnus is stronger than that, and not by an insignificant margin, (Malcador having had his soul extinguished from a few hours on the throne while magnus was designed to be able to power it indefinitely.) Then he could most certainly bully any of the other primarchs any day of the week, save a tag team of both dorn and leman (both of whom have warp supressing abilities.)with a few hundred to a few thousand sister of silence spectators or POSSIBLY mortarion if he didn’t actively suppress all of his psyker abilities as well as a large chunk of his physical abilities due to the passive warp based physical enhancement all primarchs enjoy that Mortarian actively tries to cut off. But yeah, if it was all 20 other primarchs(yes, I’m including omegon as his own separate primarch) vs Magnus, I’d bet on Magnus.
Only thing that pisses me off about female custodes is that text to speech is no longer around so we don't get wacky memes from that show. Would have loved for our favourite oiled up totally straight dude bros meeting with their sisters
I wish they wouldve just made augmented sisters of silence, thats such a cool lore concept instead of this ''meh'' slightly lore breaking change that exists only to create some controversy
When SoS can function outside of support team aganist daemons while actual factions kills them then maybe one day. They are so niche I forget those gals exist most of the time
I think the biggest issue with adding female custodes is that it is so clearly just being used as a shield for GW. They didnt do it because it made the story better, it didn't clarify something confusing, it is literally just for social points and so that any criticisms surrounding the situations can just be hand waved away with the sexism card. It's just like making Soldier 76 from Overwatch gay despite lore setting up a relationship with Ana, it's just like making Saint 14 and Osiris from Destiny gay despite their relationship being an incredible example of brothers in arms before the change made it into a cringy forced romantic relationship that lacks any soul or real feeling. The entire point of the change was simply social points so they can point and go "look! SEE SEE theres women in the Custodes buy our shit and dont look any farther.
I loved the book, they had restaurants where the cooks were psykers who read your mind and looked into the future and saw what food you'd like the most and they'd make it for you and bring it out.
It perfectly parodies all the grifters that have come out of the woodwork because of this. It’s a tough time to be a 40k fan on UA-cam due to the algorithm pushing outrage.
@@l1ghtd3m0n3 So lets ignore the level headed criticism and just put them at the same group as the sexists that scream WOKE! at everything. Maybe GW didnt handed this well...
If GW had just said: “yeah we wanted to add Female Custodes and made a good story line introducing them, would have been nice. Then saying: “they were always there.” Was lazy.
@@arcaelistia6340 Oh like 1 in a thousand Custodes are female(just an example of ratio) to imply they are the minority since biologically, men in general are physically stronger than women so makes sense why Emps would use Male humans for his greatest warriors, but having some woman stand out and be chosen as well wouldnt be a problem. Some explanation other than the BS they used
@@HistoritorJimaldus"Muh right wing bigots" is such a handwave. If I don't want women in my army I just wouldn't paint and use women minis, simple as that. Could've been as simple as Cawl pulling a Primaris, introducing a new manner of producing custodes, with an accompanying upgrade kit like guard had, instead nobody noticed a single woman in an organization with pages of named characters for 10k years? This isn't even touching the whole sisters of silence issue. It's the laziness that's irking people, literal J.K Rowling post publish rewriting. Calling them bigots for pointing out said laziness is not the move.
@chipflavoredtoes6412 while I'd agree it is lazy, lot of people are falling for a right wing culture war grift. the two positions aren't mutually exclusive
Like always, if Big E just acted like a dad just ONCE, there'd be one less lost son. The more I learn about the Primarchs the more I feel this was intentional and Big E just wants the universe in chaos just like the Chaos Gods
That would require effort. Much easier to pander and then gaslight everyone complaining about pandering as sexist. Remember, everyone complains about pride flags and black squares on twitter profile pic as performative activism, but they wouldn't do something so cheap if it didn't work on SOMEONE.
@@FullMetalElricI would actually disagree slightly. Having more diversity and creativity in models is a good thing in my book. Even if it is pandering and is probably just GW trying to get points, the result is something that is at the very least neutral. It’s not like they’re forcing people to you to make your custodes all female.
@@dionysus913adding more sisters of silence models is diversity especially since gw has ignored them for the most part. Custodes get way too much attention
@@FullMetalElricSoS are so niche they are basically none existant. Female custodeans and her new short story is so fucking cool I do not care if you consider it pandering. IF they deign to give new lore to other factions other than SM we can get really cool characters! ADB had been wanting to write abkut female custodeans for a while now. He is a good author. We can get custodeans version of ahsoka (the way fans grow to love her) for female Custodeans.
Boyo, i dont care if they make the Mam-stodies army next. The greatest issue here is the lazy manner in which they change the lore. It was better when they introduced Primaris, now they inform of their latest retcon by gaslighting through twitter, instead of at least introducing this change through a novel or series. This is lazy.
Props to the writers who did the Dreadnought in space marine 2.. The coolest and most badass brother in the game who yeeted a statue at a warp drake and wanted to stomp Magnus himself.
As a KSons fan, I've always loved what a tragic character Magnus was. Nothing but the best of intentions, massive love for his sons, blinded by his own intelligence, seemingly small mistakes turned massive, betrayed by his hypocrite brothers and overly secretive father (Rune priests? Give me a break) and plain old bad decisions. There are just SO many different points where his story could've been different, so many times where the smallest nudge in the right direction would've changed everything, so many times he could've come down from the ledge, but he fell all the same, further than most and certainly further than he deserved.
Magnus is probably the closest a Primarch ever gets to being a 'normal' person in a Primarch role, barring Perturabo being a 'tism rep. Everything Magnus does is straight up fairly forgivable and understandable to any normal individual, and that's why I love him. He had no reason to believe the warp/tzeentch was behind his downfall beyond superstition (Tzeentch has helped him every single time he's needed it), he had an understandable urgency to inform the emperor about the HH given just how cataclysmic it was to the galaxy at large, and his shift of demeanour during the burning of Prospero is kind of understandable given Russ immediately began burning his planet and butchering civilians en-masse. Magnus is the equivalent of a normal, kind-hearted person of the modern day being put in the body of a Primarch, and then being torn apart by the 30k/40k setting because, well, you simply don't survive this setting as a normal person. Not even as a Primarch. Magnus absolutely did wrong, but he's far from being at fault.
Guilliman comes across as the most well adjusted to me, especially in 40K. Then again, Guilliman had a loving mother and father long before big E arrived
There was also that time Peter Turbo pulled Magnus aside to show him a cool recreation of a warp gadget that if used properly could help navigate through the warp. And as Magnus was needing out over it Perty hulk smashed it right there and basically said "Stop doing warp shenanigans. Dad said its bad"
It is absolutely awful how much bricky is underselling the tragedy of Magnus and the thousand sons. They fought against the fate and future and had no chance of winning. They were called 1000 sons from the very beginning. That there was a 1000 left was not a coincidence. Ahriman is talking about this in the thousand sons book. They had great power and were unable to use it to prevent the future that tzeentch was showing them. And the greatest tragedy of Magnus is his hubris that he acknowledges after he breaks into the palace. Also the entity didn't whisper anything it was just there, tempting him with vast amounts of power that he could redirect to break the barrier. I love 1000 sons and their hh book is awesome.
So we’re supposed to believe there’s always been female Custodes, despite no announcements of new models, or a single one ever being mentioned in a single book? 10,000 years of lore and there’s never been a single relevant female Custodes worth mentioning by name? Very nice GW.
There is 2 reasons; first is custodeans actually start get real lore around 2018 with few non specific snippets in HH books and when they became a playable army. Second is according to ADB he had been planning to write female custodeans in HH books but the first made models had no female in them and GW being GW too lazy and greedy to print new models refused him. GW strikes again -_- because I personally REALLY love this development.
Ya its completely arbitrary and political. Needlessly polarizing and divisive. It won't sell more models. It won't bring more people into the hobby. It feels like an arbitrary change for investment money from hedge funds.
>trying to explain in current year how old lore white Dragon Warriors adapted to being black while following Black Vulkan but upon the exposure of their gene seed to the same planet and "fathers" mutation in turn activated to also become Black yet there are regular Salamanders that in certain environments become White/slightly beige grey as part of the mutation and whole fire fuel and prometheum theme (or per codex, from Ashen to Charcoal)

Small correction. He didn’t think “if prospero burns, I deserve it” but rather if I die, I deserve it. He expected his planet and his sons to be fine. As soon as he learned they were going for the manual exterminatus, he said screw that noise and went to save his sons.

Blame does fall on Erebus and Lorgar yet again, but also Horus for misleading Russ and if I'm remembering correctly the warp was interfering in Russ's comms because he was trying to get Magnus to surrender and come with him peacefully (I think for once it wasn't alpha legion messing with comms). Also Amon Ra being their version of Typhon and placing the remembrancer spy among the Space Wolves.
@@pheonixheart1125 Wasn't the remembrancer spy placed with the Wolves due to Changeling shenanigans?
“Perturabo placed one hand on his shoulder, the other at his neck, pulling him close for a fraternal embrace.
His next words were for Magnus alone.
‘You came a heartbeat from death,’ he whispered. ‘By all rights, you should have died. And our father’s Great Crusade would have been robbed of one of its brightest sons, brighter even than dear Horus. More importantly, I would have lost a dear brother. There are none among our kin I regard as highly as you, so promise me you won’t risk your life like that again.’ “
One of the very few occasions when Peter Turbo wasn't a dick.
Literally one of the most wholesome moments in 40k
What book is this from?
Where's that from?
Pretty sure that's from Perty's primarch novel
"I punched out one of his hearts! How come noone remembers that!" - Magnus the Red
It’s okay, Russ has another! Unlike Magnus’ back after that back shot.
Doesn’t seem to slow him down much.
Hearing Perterabo calling Magnus’s hair magnificent i cant help but imagine a far-off timeline of Perty rattling off his new city plans for a planet while he does Magnus’s hair
The Magnus/Perturabo bromance in Master of Prospero is epic.
I just picture it was his terrible attempt at humor since he himself is bald
"Can you BELIEVE that he picked dorn over me. ME?"
"No I do not spill that tea." 😂😂😂
A few stuff worth mentioning:
1. Magnus had a secret plan to delve further into the warp, he had Perurabo build him a gadget. Good old Peter built it and broke it in front of Magnus to remind him of Big E's warnings. A cute little moment between bff primarchs and good foreshadowing for Magnus' fall.
2. Ahriman befriended a Space Wolf rune priest and showed him some of his psychic research and abilities. That Space Wolf proceeded to share all of those secrets at Nikeah to shame the Thousand Sons while presenting himself as entirely different.
3. Magnus did try and convince Horus to remain loyal. But apparently, Erebus seemed more trustworthy despite having been exposed as a liar by Magnus.
Remember everything is always lorgars fault
Another moment of Peter Turbo being right and ignored.
@@RougeMephilesClone Nah. If Perturabo hadn't broken the machine, Magnus would never have had to resort to using wacky sorcery rituals involving mass sacrifice/burning out shitloads of mortal psykers. Plus he could have built in a ton of psychic power sinks to make it totally safe to use. Then again, Perturabo didn't understand Warp shenanigans, so he probably built it wrong in the first place.
Best part about that rune priest was that Ahriman had shown him the truth and such before feeding his soul to daemons, making him dead dead.
That common thread when they have make certain Primarchs stupid/hypocrites to make them fall. Horus couldn't trust a psycher over Erebus, I guess
Mortarion and Russ- "you could just kill them and start over?"
Magnus- "Don't speak to me or my thousand sons ever again."
You see he didn't give up his eye, he gave up his ability to see the incredibly obvious stuff right in front of him, like "hmmm maybe he put this barrier up for a reason"
That would have been good lore, lol
"Depth perception, pal. Look into it."
That kinda reminds me of Kairos Fateweaver
He's willingly blind.
He pretends to do what he's told, ignores warnings, does whatever he wants, and cryes after.
"Maybe this entity is the warp danger."
"Maybe I should stand for my magic, instead of doing it at everyone's back, or not do it at all"
"Maybe trying to save the day, specifically with magic will create more confusion"
I'm pretty sure the eye is a reference to Osiris ignoring Set, willingly blind until Set betray him; and Horus Eye is the sacrifice needed to push Set back; but you need to be willing to see all, not just the things that pushes your way.
Gold star comment
Also about who loves his "sons" more: when Magnus was rejecting the emperor's offer of redemption (during the siege of Terra!) because the cost was sacrificing all his sons, he asked Vulcan if he would accept such an offer being in his place. Vulcan lowered his gaze, said no and powered his hammer.

Oooohh I really like that!
There is a weird symmetry between Magus's missing his right eye and Kairos. Kairos's right head can see all possible futures, and after after sacrificing his right eye Magus begins to lack forethought about the worst of his decisions, only caring about what helps most in that moment.
plus its got all that Odin symbolism too!
@@aguspuig6615 yeah but kinda in reverse. Odin sacrifices his eye for wisdom and knowledge where as Magnus unknowingly sacrificed his wisdom by sacrificing his eye.
Aye, it's meant to be a twisted mockery of it. Odin, Tarhunt, Horus, the Graeae, all lack at least one eye and became more wise/clever as a result.
But for Magnus, it was merely an opening for Chaos. Once he agreed to that small act, he became more susceptible to every other temptation Tzeentch dangled his way.
Magnus is the personification of the quote:
"We judge ourselves by our intentions and others by their behavior."
Oof.
I've never come across that quote before, where's it from?
Council of Nikaea taking away Thousand Sons magic powers just like 10th ed

How does it even work now? Is it just unit abilities now?
@@samhescott348 Unit abilities with the psychic attacks just being weapons.
@@smugron1101for some reason that reminded me of a rule change regarding abilities in AoS, but I can't remember what it is right now
@@smugron1101 so you can’t use both now? I thought originally you could do psychic and shooting now you can’t?
Magnus was the Primark who fell to Chaos for his sons. Everything he did wrong was either for them or for the Emperor. "The road to hell is paved with good intentions".
Except for the time he killed his son to prevent a warning of the wolves approach, the time he killed his son for killing Alivia sureka, the many, many times he almost killed Ahriman...
Mortarion disagrees. Wasn't that the whole reason he sold out to Nurgle after Typhus fucked his legion over?
I mean, he was probably never going to be loyal to begin with, but the Death Guard likely would've been *Traitors* but not *Heretics* if Typhus didn't exist.
Or due to his own arrogance tbf
@@isengarde9490 yeah, Mortarion fell bc he couldn’t bear to see his Legion suffer any more. Its why he’s my favourite; his story is all about him being absolutely awful but still having more love for his sons than either of the fathers he knew
@@Swarbie8D That's why I love the Roboutian Heresy fan continuity. He's Loyal, and that's the only thing that changed about him.
If Magnus is the Crimson King, does that mean he's the 41st Millennium Schizoid Man?
thank you for this.
That definitely fits
*Kore ga… Back-breaker da.* - Leman Russ, M31, the Burning of Prospero
He talks to the wind....
I mean the warp kinda is starless, and he definitely has a black bible
if theres ever a 40k equivalent to the end times, therell be a moment where magnus andruss and all their sons will face a common enemy: a vacuum cleaner
Truly Ahriman's enemy.
I would know, my cat mr.Ahriman is terrified of the thing
You joke, but I can see this being the case with a Necron black hole superweapon.
I'm legitimately impressed they were able to get that many drawings and all the editing done for that skit in the cold opening. incredible shitposts all around.
In an unexpected but somehow not very disappointing move, GW managed to make everyone unhappy no matter whichever side you're on.
In other news, water is still wet. More news at 9.
When it comes to warhammer lore, I am a firm believer in “game workshop is dumb as hell, so I’m gonna pick and choose the parts of lore I like and that’s what’s real”
i mean that works because everything is cannon but not everything is true. this goes double for ancient lore from Rouge Trader

Yes. This.
this has become SO true!
I fully believe Trazyn has a 10.0 graded Alpha Black Lotus locked in a stasis field
The kind shard, the "Noble Shard of Magnus", was actually used to create the Grey Knight Janus. Magnus was FURIOUS that Malcador just casually used a piece of his soul to make a Grey Knight and it was one of the reasons he rejected a last-minute team switch.
Oh, wait, they mentioned that a bit later.
Malcador actually sold that so hard. makes me believe that was also part of tzeentch's plan
@@blimp9741 To be fair, the situation at the time was a clusterfuck of cluster fucks. Not to mention, Malcador didn't know that Magnus was considering to go switch back since he was too busy trying to salvage the situation when Horus and the traitors went crazy and rebel. It was just bad luck. But I do understand where you're coming from.
another thing, ALL OF MAGNUS DUELS GET INTERRUPTED. Like..in the Duel between him and russ, Magnus is about to deliver a killing Blow to Russ, but then the two actual wolf pets of Russ jump him, distract him and give russ time to recover and hit his eye.
Don't forget the part where Magnus takes a moment to melt the company of Space Wolves that tried to skirt around the duel to get at the last of his sons.
@@gama343 Magnus the mans need 2 extra arms and extra eyes to just be casting spells.
Also no wonder russ broke his back, he was carrying the k-sons with his abilities alone.
@@ColdNorth0628you know, Sukuna-like form of Magnus(so not only with additional pair of eyes and arms, but with second mouth) would perfectly fit Tzeench aesthetic
Besides enormous power boost
I can just hear Magnus in the distance screaming at DK when they talk about the fight “I PUNCHED OUT ONE HIS HEARTS WHY DOES NO ONE REMEMBER THAT!!!!!” Even though he brought it up later the fact he didn’t after discussing the back breaker just made it hilarious 😂😂😂
I've always had the headcannon that Magnus is extremely intelligent but also extremely emotional leading to his impulsive decision. Warp power is tied to emotions and Magnus is one of the most powerful psykers in the universe. The Eldar have the paths to keep them from falling into the emotional states that led to the Fall but Magnus did not.
This is the awkward episode.
Between the worst such as "succulent", 'take a hold of my grippers' 'grab that taco' 'No harm will shall come to You, nor your Magnificent Hair...' and DK's 'air tasting' ...
Magnus did *everything* wrong.
He just had good intentions.
And in his defense tseench himself was working to ensure that Magnus falls from grace. Can we really blame Magnus for being tricked when the god of tricks tricked him?
I mean I'd say yes IF Magnus knew that was who he was dealing with. If only *SOMEONE* explained it to him before hand
Not everything but yeah he did more wrong than he did right that's for sure.
The road to Chaos is often paved with good intentions
Not against the Space Wolves that was kind of based.
One hour and a half, can mean two things: a beefy episode or Bricky and Dk heavily going off the rail
TBF the first 10 minutes or so was talking about the recent news regarding the Custodes Codex (I think I might still buy it cos I just got into the hobby, and I don't have any Codices at the moment)
I say this as a White Scars fan, after this and the 1k Sons episode, you guys need to do an episode on the origin of Janus.
It would also be a good time to talk a bit about the Knights Errant
It's a line in TTS once again, paraphrased to "A Caring Parental Figure is the Greatest Defense against the Vileness of Chaos". Had the Emperor seen that he was a father *figure* to the Primarchs, and played that part, there was the chance he could have avoided the worst of the heresy
He was. BL writers daddy issues cant change the og canon.
May be he was awful and intended the Heresy to happen.
@Dracobyte one of the recent books had the emperor talk to malcador about the primarchs. He intended to reform the ones that could live after war, and give peace to the ones that could never leave the battlefield.
@@ANDELE3025 Angron.
@@Mare_Man Yes, originally angron was angry due to the butchers nails being unable to be fixed without killing him and big E didnt want to kill his son. In the retcon he is angry because E teleported him away in a extremely out of character move.
The power of Shy with a chair is unmatched even by the Emperor himself
Remember, He punched out one of Russ's hearts
Why do people always forget that?!
@@Forestxavier20because he got snapped like a kit-kat bar around 20 seconds after...
I'm going to make a joke about Lehman.Having three hearts but I feel as though it wouldn't miss a beat
Who cares? Russ has multiple hearts but Magnus only has one spine lol
If I had half my hearts ripped out I'd also move to end the fight as quickly as possible.
Oh boi I love 1000 sons, I hope that’s all we talk about the whole episode.
The Big Red Redditor himself
I mean, Jaghatai Khan held funerals for his sons, and went crazy because a single one was killed by an ork, then was saddened at having to cut down his own sons when they turned traitor after Prospero. Haven't heard any other primach giving that level of care to their marines
Fun Fact: one of the Primarchs (besides Magnus) who broke the vow of the Council of Nikea the most was actually the Lion. When he and the Dark Angels traveled trough the warp, Daemons attacked their ship and they didn’t know how to fight them effectively, until a Librarian started using his powers. The Lion in that moment revoked the voew until they’re in safe space again, but their Chaplin, Nemiel, was heavily against it and was basically ready to snitch on the Emperor for that. And the Lion, the calm and collected soul he is, punched Nemiel‘s head clean off which was one of the reasons which led to Caliban rebelling against the Lion.
4:17
OH MY GOD-EMPEROR! IT'S SHY WITH A WOODEN CHAIR! AND BRICKY HAS BEEN BROKEN IN HALF!
Wow theres a lot of retcons here i wonder who dunnit
and also Human-Eldar(Heldar) children existing and being welcomed by the imperium? So you're tellin' me that, that Roboogey x Yvraine shitpost aint far from the fucking truth?
What Bricky in his politically disingenuous "wisdom" is that half-Eldar were literally only in Rogue Trader (AKA first edition, back when the lore wasn't finalised and things like the Sinsei were still a thing and Space Marines weren't transhumans and just the foreign legion in power armour), so they haven't really been canon since 2nd edition.
Hopefully this clears things up.
I am upset about the female Custodes.
Mainly because their codex is horrible, and I am now afraid that Eldar are gonna fair even worse than with the current detachment. (Which is horrible for balancing, and fluff)
And because it shows that if you are not spacemarines - you wont receive any lore. If even Custodes get no new lore - what hope do Aeldari have?
A very distressed Eldar.
Oh, oh you're right. Crap.
Thankfully a war has not started in Iran...yet. But if it does one day, as an Iranian fan I just want to say you guys have always been amazing and will be amazing.

Why is Magnus loved?
TTS man
TTS
Only because of TTS because Magny Magic fucked up royally!
Now let me tell you about the Actual Magnus that did nothing wrong known by the moniker The Pious
no pathetic box can hold me like this
"The corpse emperor!? My father!?"
Balam Industries sponsored field trip to the Warp.
Magnus has his own sewing club.
Is this an Armored Core reference?
If you tought it was bad learning about a major geopolitical event the day after, imagine hearing about it furst on a comedy podcast about Warhammer.
The scariest thing in 40k is probably shy
I’m certain that half the Magnus fans are from the tts fan base
Can confirm. Saucy spice boy is best boy.
Indeed I am
Only half?
@@salphoris911I summon *Prohibition Hammer*
magnus in a nutshell
Magnus: oh noo my hous is burning i have to save my dad
voice from a van: i got you buddy i have something that my help
Magnus: oh thank you stranger (after using it) ohh my got is fucki*ng flamethrower
Once again, if the Emperor was just 1% of a better father, maybe one of the traitor legions would have remained loyal. If Big E had just said something to the effect of "You are all psykers, to single out one son for his gifts is to be a hypocrite. Especially you, Mortarion." then maybe Magnus would have remained loyal. Also, if Big E had just given Magnus ANY DETAILS on what was in the warp, then maybe he wouldn't have been mislead by Chaos.
People like to blame the Emperor for everything, but in reality the Primarchs all had their own critical flaws.
Magnus' was his ego.
For the Emperor to put the time i to each Primarchs (all adults by the way) that people say he should have, he would need way more time then is realistically possible.
@@williamings773I think while Big E was correct in his assumption that the webway must be completed to save humanity, he screwed up in trying way too hard to speed run it. He had enough time that he could have at least stopped half of the traitors from turning on him. I will concede it’s not entirely his fault. I’ll be the first to say big e is not the #1 reason that the heresy happened, but definitely he’s in the top 3.
@@williamings773 He could literally talk to Magnus with his psychic powers before they even found the planet Magnus was on. He could literally talk to Magnus any time he wanted. ANY TIME. He had all the time in the world.
If any of the traitors aside from Magnus were to remain loyal it would probably be Morty or Pertie. Konrad was on the edge of insanity, Horus was fully corrupted by the 4, fulgrim had the laer blade(why didn't Big E notice it?) And we still don't know if Alpharius Omegon were loyal or traitor in their entirety.
Meh
Shy should have hit Bricky with a PIPE! XD missed oportunity
YES. Specifically throwing it at him from above.
Damn!
@@Gormathiuslike a lance?
It’s a shame people forget that while Russ fought Magnus and won:
1- Magnus was directing escape routes for his people.
2- He was helping the Sons via warp against the Wolves.
3- Actually putting up a good fight against Russ.
4- Magnus is a nerd, he wasn’t a battle fanatic like Russ. That he punched a heart of Russ out while all this was going on- speaks more for Russ’ ability to fight, holding back or not.
And don’t forget he was being hard nerfed by all of the sisters of silence and the space wolfs having anti psyker powers like leman’s howl.
@@drakeyork241 yeah Magnus is basically the superman of the primarchs.
He would blatantly win 19v1 if the story isn't able to nerf him to balance the fight
@@teejay1646 he is a stronger psyker than Malcador, the man who was so strong he made threats to the primarchs such as “I will unmake you” with said threats being treated VERY seriously by the primarch whom was at the time being Vader force choked.
Or the time Malcador was being choked out by Mortarian and was still calm enough to question himself as to exactly how much force would be needed to escape from Mortarian’s grasp without being so extreme that Mortarian would hate him further and try to kill him due to his distain for psykers.
We can also guess how strong Malcador is based on the fact that his personal throne is decorated with two skulls. One skull being marked II while the other being marked XI. The Roman numerals for 2 and 11, the same numbers as the “missing” legions. Need I explain further.
If magnus is stronger than that, and not by an insignificant margin, (Malcador having had his soul extinguished from a few hours on the throne while magnus was designed to be able to power it indefinitely.)
Then he could most certainly bully any of the other primarchs any day of the week, save a tag team of both dorn and leman (both of whom have warp supressing abilities.)with a few hundred to a few thousand sister of silence spectators or POSSIBLY mortarion if he didn’t actively suppress all of his psyker abilities as well as a large chunk of his physical abilities due to the passive warp based physical enhancement all primarchs enjoy that Mortarian actively tries to cut off.
But yeah, if it was all 20 other primarchs(yes, I’m including omegon as his own separate primarch) vs Magnus, I’d bet on Magnus.
More things to note:
- It wasn't just the wolf but Custods and Sisters of silence + a Titan legion.
Wait, did he actually punch a heart out? I thought that was solely a TTS bit?
"What's next? They will be bigger, taller, and stronger than me?" 2:08 God I hope so
Magnus just wanted to help his dad, unfortunately he did so in a very dumb way.
Now do a tier list on which primarchs are the worst dads and have the emperor with his own tier at the bottom
I was really hoping to escape the Custodian controversy, especially seeing Magnus as the thumbnail. Hope DK liked learning more about his OG primarch
Same here.

HUGE props to Shy for ending the Bricky rant with a chair... that was nice
Only thing that pisses me off about female custodes is that text to speech is no longer around so we don't get wacky memes from that show. Would have loved for our favourite oiled up totally straight dude bros meeting with their sisters
And Shy knocked his block off with that chair shot! This is a slobber knocker folks!
Absolute barn burner!
And the crowd goes wild!
Magnus is obsessed with knowledge. So, Magnus is 40k version of Tai Lopez.
Man, Big E got one of the worst fates in the heresy, and he's the one that deserved it the most
I wish they wouldve just made augmented sisters of silence, thats such a cool lore concept instead of this ''meh'' slightly lore breaking change that exists only to create some controversy
Us SoS fans are starving today.
When SoS can function outside of support team aganist daemons while actual factions kills them then maybe one day. They are so niche I forget those gals exist most of the time
I think the biggest issue with adding female custodes is that it is so clearly just being used as a shield for GW. They didnt do it because it made the story better, it didn't clarify something confusing, it is literally just for social points and so that any criticisms surrounding the situations can just be hand waved away with the sexism card. It's just like making Soldier 76 from Overwatch gay despite lore setting up a relationship with Ana, it's just like making Saint 14 and Osiris from Destiny gay despite their relationship being an incredible example of brothers in arms before the change made it into a cringy forced romantic relationship that lacks any soul or real feeling. The entire point of the change was simply social points so they can point and go "look! SEE SEE theres women in the Custodes buy our shit and dont look any farther.
I loved the book, they had restaurants where the cooks were psykers who read your mind and looked into the future and saw what food you'd like the most and they'd make it for you and bring it out.
That intro was actually the most SCATHING retort I've ever heard.
It perfectly parodies all the grifters that have come out of the woodwork because of this. It’s a tough time to be a 40k fan on UA-cam due to the algorithm pushing outrage.
@@l1ghtd3m0n3 So lets ignore the level headed criticism and just put them at the same group as the sexists that scream WOKE! at everything. Maybe GW didnt handed this well...
If GW had just said: “yeah we wanted to add Female Custodes and made a good story line introducing them, would have been nice. Then saying: “they were always there.” Was lazy.
@@arcaelistia6340 Especially with the Sisters of Silence.
@@arcaelistia6340 Oh like 1 in a thousand Custodes are female(just an example of ratio) to imply they are the minority since biologically, men in general are physically stronger than women so makes sense why Emps would use Male humans for his greatest warriors, but having some woman stand out and be chosen as well wouldnt be a problem.

Because it’s embarrassing for 40K fans who don’t fall for right-wing culture war nonsense
@@HistoritorJimaldus"Muh right wing bigots" is such a handwave. If I don't want women in my army I just wouldn't paint and use women minis, simple as that. Could've been as simple as Cawl pulling a Primaris, introducing a new manner of producing custodes, with an accompanying upgrade kit like guard had, instead nobody noticed a single woman in an organization with pages of named characters for 10k years? This isn't even touching the whole sisters of silence issue. It's the laziness that's irking people, literal J.K Rowling post publish rewriting. Calling them bigots for pointing out said laziness is not the move.

@@gabbromancerWhen the exact same thing has been happening in Star Wars, BattleTech, Star Trek, it isnt a grift, but go off.
Like always, if Big E just acted like a dad just ONCE, there'd be one less lost son. The more I learn about the Primarchs the more I feel this was intentional and Big E just wants the universe in chaos just like the Chaos Gods
woulda been cooler if a sister of silence got custodes tier enhancements. maybe they could be allowed break the vow of silence
That would require effort. Much easier to pander and then gaslight everyone complaining about pandering as sexist. Remember, everyone complains about pride flags and black squares on twitter profile pic as performative activism, but they wouldn't do something so cheap if it didn't work on SOMEONE.
@@FullMetalElricI would actually disagree slightly. Having more diversity and creativity in models is a good thing in my book. Even if it is pandering and is probably just GW trying to get points, the result is something that is at the very least neutral. It’s not like they’re forcing people to you to make your custodes all female.
@@dionysus913adding more sisters of silence models is diversity especially since gw has ignored them for the most part. Custodes get way too much attention
The Custodese are becoming the Ultramarines to us Sisters of Silence fans.
@@FullMetalElricSoS are so niche they are basically none existant. Female custodeans and her new short story is so fucking cool I do not care if you consider it pandering. IF they deign to give new lore to other factions other than SM we can get really cool characters! ADB had been wanting to write abkut female custodeans for a while now. He is a good author. We can get custodeans version of ahsoka (the way fans grow to love her) for female Custodeans.

Magnus the Red is how you're supposed to write "cares too much about his friends" as an ACTUAL CHARACTER FLAW.
Props to the writers who did the Dreadnought in space marine 2..
The coolest and most badass brother in the game who yeeted a statue at a warp drake and wanted to stomp Magnus himself.
As a KSons fan, I've always loved what a tragic character Magnus was. Nothing but the best of intentions, massive love for his sons, blinded by his own intelligence, seemingly small mistakes turned massive, betrayed by his hypocrite brothers and overly secretive father (Rune priests? Give me a break) and plain old bad decisions. There are just SO many different points where his story could've been different, so many times where the smallest nudge in the right direction would've changed everything, so many times he could've come down from the ledge, but he fell all the same, further than most and certainly further than he deserved.
Well said damn
Magnus is probably the closest a Primarch ever gets to being a 'normal' person in a Primarch role, barring Perturabo being a 'tism rep. Everything Magnus does is straight up fairly forgivable and understandable to any normal individual, and that's why I love him. He had no reason to believe the warp/tzeentch was behind his downfall beyond superstition (Tzeentch has helped him every single time he's needed it), he had an understandable urgency to inform the emperor about the HH given just how cataclysmic it was to the galaxy at large, and his shift of demeanour during the burning of Prospero is kind of understandable given Russ immediately began burning his planet and butchering civilians en-masse. Magnus is the equivalent of a normal, kind-hearted person of the modern day being put in the body of a Primarch, and then being torn apart by the 30k/40k setting because, well, you simply don't survive this setting as a normal person. Not even as a Primarch.
Magnus absolutely did wrong, but he's far from being at fault.
Guilliman comes across as the most well adjusted to me, especially in 40K. Then again, Guilliman had a loving mother and father long before big E arrived
As a custodes player thank you for addressing the recent codex and the shameless retconing for marketing

Just gonna put the obligatory quote here:
"Horrible mistake number 999: I PUT MY TRUST IN TZEENTCH!"
That means next week is THOUSAND SONS BABEYYY!
Introduced femstodes
Nerfed them into oblivion and beyond.
What did GW mean by this?
There was also that time Peter Turbo pulled Magnus aside to show him a cool recreation of a warp gadget that if used properly could help navigate through the warp.
And as Magnus was needing out over it Perty hulk smashed it right there and basically said "Stop doing warp shenanigans. Dad said its bad"
I wouldn't say the pairing of the topic and news is cataclysmic as we all know Magnus' relationship with a certain Custodian
I just realised Magnus getting torn into pieces by a dog is veeeery Osiris
It is absolutely awful how much bricky is underselling the tragedy of Magnus and the thousand sons. They fought against the fate and future and had no chance of winning. They were called 1000 sons from the very beginning. That there was a 1000 left was not a coincidence. Ahriman is talking about this in the thousand sons book. They had great power and were unable to use it to prevent the future that tzeentch was showing them. And the greatest tragedy of Magnus is his hubris that he acknowledges after he breaks into the palace. Also the entity didn't whisper anything it was just there, tempting him with vast amounts of power that he could redirect to break the barrier. I love 1000 sons and their hh book is awesome.
So we’re supposed to believe there’s always been female Custodes, despite no announcements of new models, or a single one ever being mentioned in a single book? 10,000 years of lore and there’s never been a single relevant female Custodes worth mentioning by name?
Very nice GW.
There is 2 reasons; first is custodeans actually start get real lore around 2018 with few non specific snippets in HH books and when they became a playable army.
Second is according to ADB he had been planning to write female custodeans in HH books but the first made models had no female in them and GW being GW too lazy and greedy to print new models refused him. GW strikes again -_- because I personally REALLY love this development.
Ya its completely arbitrary and political. Needlessly polarizing and divisive. It won't sell more models. It won't bring more people into the hobby. It feels like an arbitrary change for investment money from hedge funds.
