    1. Start using battlecry “The Emperor lives!” against the orks.
    2. Work with the Mechanicus to modify the Golden Throne into a mobile device.
    3. Install it in a Warhound Titan.
    4. Release the Empernaught!

      Not sure that would work as the adepts who care for the Golden thron have slowly lost the ability to maintain many of its parts and lack the understanding of them to modify or upgrade it at all. That and there is the very real possability that any tinkering could Kill the Emperor and destroy the golden throne
      That said it would be pretty cool seeing a Dreadnought specifically built for the Emperor, Probly be more akin to to a small Titan like a Warhound or a Large Knight

      That would doom Terra, there were 2 reasons why the Emperor was interred in the Golden Throne. Sure it keeps him alive-ish, but he's also needed there to hold closed the entry to the web way that Magnus broke.

    • @libertyfirst9280
      @libertyfirst9280 4 роки тому +17

      EloquentTroll though Terra itself is not all that important. It’s the idea that it represents, the same idea that the Emperor represents. The loss of Terra would only be catastrophic if everything on it were lost in one fell swoop. If this were planned in advance, Terra could be evacuated and all valuable resources taken followed by planet cracking Exterminatus for good measure and denying chaos the planet.
      The rest of the Sol system could be dealt with the same way if the anticipated warp rift is that big. If not, Mars becomes a new Cadia. If so, chuck the void dragon into the warp and see what happens!

      Aye, the Scars do NOT see it as an honour. Some others are like them. BUt many do and that is the current fluff, so I have to do my best to project it fior beginners. Maybe one day - when we can take the hit and if we ever grow. But I can't see it happening. Not soon. Despite flogging myself we are not growing that swiftly, accept in the last few days.

He only wanted to know how many centurions he had lost. He openly wept when he lost a large amount. Openly. He know one thing that most forget - it is the Sergeants, in any army, that get the job done.

  • @andilucas6926

    I see why the quote re. Ancient Curval appealed to you so much as a dreadnut. :) The most remarkable thing about him is that he was seemingly interred *before* the fall of the legion and therefore adopted his deviant philosophical and religious outlook *as a dreadnought*. What a great character, so briefly used in a novel casually dismissed by so many!

    • @Baldermort
      @Baldermort  4 роки тому +1

      But the quote was amazing! Even more eye-opening as it shows his jealousy and need to be involved somehow, as we discussed before - but that he developed these ideas when encased in the sarcophagus - now that is amazing. Just amazing. Thank you for sharing it, brother. :)
      I am indeed a dreadnut. Unabashedly so. :)

    • @andilucas6926
      @andilucas6926 4 роки тому +1

      @@Baldermort - I went back to the audiobook to check my belief that Curval was a dreadnought BEFORE the fall to Slaanesh, and can confirm that this is indeed correct. The invading Iron Hands officer recognises the ancient when he sees him, although the casing is now covered in hideous quasi-organic gold filigree - a "walking altar". He remembers Ancient Curval from the Great Crusade as "a philosopher of the war, one who spoke of perfection and loss in equal measure".
      Since it does have the remains of a body a dreadnought can of course still take drugs (the occupant is permanently stuffed full of drip feeds and injectors just to keep him alive), it can still see and hear and perhaps it can still dream. Poor Curval - if the dull sons of Ferrus Manus hadn't murdered him, he would surely have evolved into a Hellbrute over time and perhaps been granted the ability to feel sensation again by his new god.

Sadly the above quote contained all of his known dialogue, except for "I SEEK THE BOON OF YOUR EXTREMITY" when he opens up with his dual lascannon. I imagine he recites ever more complex and unspeakable Sadean scenarios of murderous perversion along the lines of the 'Circle of Blood' in the 120 Days, which are then enacted by the legion and their crazed mortal victim-devotees while he watches.

      Brotherhood Of nod no, no. He/they are just expressing themselves. It’s ok. I have a pet hater who gives most of my vids a down thumb since day dot. It’s actually quite a compliment. I’ve started to get offended when I don’t get that one down thumb now. I miss it. :(. He didn’t down thumb my crimson fists yet and I’m wondering what I did wrong that he missed it. :).
      Thanks for sticking up for me brother, but it’s cool.
      I have only two rules.
      1. Anyone can insult me - but not a brother. If they do that they get a polite request to wind it in or get blocked.
      2. No nastiness about a faction on their video. Same situation.
      If people want to vent they can. But on their video or elsewhere. Here, we’re a brother+sisterhood who just love the setting and games. We’re all just fans of Warhammer. I’m no different or special. Same. All of us.
      I’m only saying it in case some tears into me. If they do then just ignore it. It’s not worth your time or effort brother. They’re just stressed. I mean who can be bothered to flame Warhammer if they aren’t stressed in the first place.
      But tell me you saw the Commissar video? It’s one of my favourites. Honestly. I love it myself. (Sad that I am).

By Dan Abnett, if I can recommend it to you further!) A short and sweet fiction at the beginning, don't know if it will match the absolute *insanity* of the Night Lords intro, though. Dreadnoughts...what an idea, haunting. The notion of waking one up, and having them tell you anecdotes, tips, tales. I had an idea about a Dark Angels Dreadnought being awoken, one who was the only one besides another who had some vital knowledge, then telling a tale of or dropping a hint about the Fallen.

As someone who has loved the lore for over a decade without ever playing the miniatures game, I'd like to submit the Battleship and Bolter as the most Warhammer thing about Warhammer (space marines aside).

      The Knights arent technically part of the Imperium as they are under the exclusive control of the Mechanicum, and a Space Marine is extremely unlikely to even contemplate the ritual to bond you with the Knight due to what happens in the ritual. The Knight can and will reprogram its pilots minds to make them more loyal to the Mechanicum itself not the Imperium as its a different connection to the MIU's used by Dreadnoughts, so while a Techmarine and some of the Chapters tied too closely to the Mechanicum might consider it in extremes, the majority wouldnt.

    You should do a feature video for noteworthy dreadnoughts. Some even have more personality than most 40k characters.

    I do find it fascinating that basically everything else I've seen & read with the brain/head etc in a jar troupe has been absolute horror/fate worse then death troupe in it'self, like The Colossus of New York...but not Warhammer lol, it's like not even an issue for the dude encased, no sensory deprivation, no insanity, it's all cool so long as he just gets to fight again for the emperor
