« CADIA STAND» Jokes aside, what Abaddon achieve during the fall of cadia was well lets be honest a phyric victory. A.K.A it was not worth it. I mean yeah sure he broke a key strategic point for the imperium, but at a cost way to high: Kamikazing the Blackstone fortress for one planet was beyond any logic, the thing could have definitly destroyed many other imperial worlds or even space marine chapters but nah let waste it on ONE PLANET. Blackstone Fortress are relic of the past and thus quite the rarety. Abaddon can't just snap his finger to make one pop out of nowhere? Cadia survive: If abaddon was truly victorious, no Cadian would be left alives, and by that i mean the one that would still be willing to fight. Many of theses guys evacuated the planets and they will form new regiments by sharing cadian war doctrine. To put it simply, he broke a wall, but ''unfortuantely for him'', there is still a thousand walls behind said wall, and like the moron that he is he somehow wasted all his demolition charge on the first one, wich he should have use to pulverise the rest.
@@samtrue3 This reminds me of a quote from Commander Rimmy of the Cadian xxth. "Come on men! Think of the Feet pics!" - Commander Rimmy upon reinforcing the Adepta Sororitas
My favorite detail about the fall of Cadia is the guardsmen being flown to safety on the shuttles reported seeing fighting on the PIECES of Cadia that were being blown away and pulled into the warp Cadians refused to give up as their planet was literally cracking up beneath them.
"Sit rep, Lance-corporal" "Well, our platoon is gone, our unit is under manned, most of us are walking wounded, the planet beneath our feet is now many asteroids, our lack of air support has now transitioned into a lack of space daring support, the atmosphere will completely run out in 90 seconds, we're surrounded by Abaddon's forces not just north to south, west to east but up and down as well, said asteroid we are on is falling into the Eye of Terror and we're down to three crates of lasgun ammunition." "You know what that sounds like?" "We're in a target rich environment, Sir?" "Correct, Lance-corporal. Continue firing at the enemy! CADIA STILL STANDS. FOR THE EMPEROR!"
@@neonwalker3223 Oh I'm a full believer Abaddon fucked up. A billion souls got thrown into the warp, where all that matters is willpower, screaming with their last breath that they'd keep fighting no matter what. I 100% believe there are a billion saints in the warp right now. The Legion of the Damned are the Emperor's demon Astartes. Cadians are his demon army.
Astartes are also known to straight up KILL anyone that speaks badly about Cadians in their presence. There are two that I know of in short stories. One was a Space Wolf that straight up snapped the neck of an Inquisitor mid sentence for calling the Cadians weak. Another was a Black Templar that cut a General's head off for speaking badly about Cadia. They won't put up with anyone speaking badly about the guard in general, but speaking badly about Cadia is a death sentence when in the presence of an Astartes.
@@Nempo13 Do you happen to remember the names of the stories? I really would love to read lore about marines showing actual appreciation and respect for the people they were made to protect.
As imperium vessels watched the planet crack into bits, red lines stretched across the planet and reached into the sky. It was the remaining Guardsmen, either shooting at the daemons on their planet or T the chaos vessels still in the sky, a final "fuck you" to those who had destroyed their world.
To be fair, I think Creed being in Trazyn's vault is, narratively, less of a fate of eternal imprisonment and more of a way for the writers to stash him away until needed. I expect him to pop up with utmost tactical genius when he'll be needed - and when Trazyn's interests would be best served by releasing him, of course.
Considering that we have Creed's daughter in the game right now, it either means we'll see him soon, or it means we wont see him again for AGES, and I'm honestly not too sure which it is...
When Trazyn lets him out of his pokeball, there will inexplicably be an entire regiment in there. Trazyn didn't put them in there, and Creed isn't talking.

If we are gonna cause infighting amongst them it would probably be better to lie and say you saw some slaneshussy on cadia interrupting honor duels or some shit. Khorn would get *heated*
How dare you. Trazyn is a dignified collector. He's like the top tier Lex Luthor orchestrating hiests from his tower and the Blood Ravens are like a pack of industrial revolution pickpocket orphans swiping relics from corpses they found in an ally. 😜
Creed holding off Abaddon is like that scene between Cap. America and Thanos by the end of Infinity War. Thanos could implode Cap in like a nanosecond, but he just looks at him like "Mhm... you should be squished. Why are you not squished... well, impressive. Now fuck off tho" and then boops him away. The, even if phenomenal, normal human that stays off even for a very short time a god-tier lvl being: truly inspiring.

The event have the same name The Fall of Reach The Fall of Cadia Literally the same name both have a massive army going up against a equally large defense. Minus the clear difference in scale because 40k is 40k and Halo is not 40k. The only difference is that on Reach the UNSC retreated before it was fully glassed while on Cadia the planet broke before the guard did
@@anidiot2284don't disrespect Noble 6. When all else retreated or perished, he alone made the sacrifice that would ultimately save humanity. He alone held the ground for hours, taking out as many of the Covenant as he could. He may not have finished the fight, but he sure as hell kept on fighting until the bitter end

51:14 It is my head-canon that that bell is now sailing through the warp and sometimes it resurfaces to rescue Imperial world being besieged. Like the one time it reapperared 10 feet above a Wordbearer and flattening him so it interrupted a summuning ritual.
in my mind, the bell ended up on top of the spire the humans built in Kavzar. and then it rang 13 times more times, bringing about our lil ratman friends.
little detail: the pylons are from necron origin. They are made of blackstone, a material that can be "polarized" when managing the warp - increase the warp's energies (blackstone fortress's warp cannons) - pylons on Cadia when repeling the eye of terror meanwhile admiral spire in the warp and Cawl actually considered kill Creed if he didnt agreed to let the mechanicus study the pylons
It didn’t take long for Cadia to fall. Our enemy was ruthless, efficient… but they weren’t nearly fast enough. For you had already passed the torch, and with it we found Yvraine. Revived Guilliman, shattered our enemy’s resolve. Our victory, your victory. Was so close, I wish you could have lived to see it. But you belong to Cadia, your body, your armor. All burned and turned to glass. Everything, except your courage, that you gave to us, and with it we can rebuild.
The Imperium's finest hour. It was a defeat unlike any before or since but they still stand even in the wake of the Eye of Terror ripping the galaxy in half.
Yeah the most tear jerking moment of the Fall of Cadia is; as the shuttles were flying away, Creed and the entire Cadian 8th stayed behind, still holding the line. Hell in the Cadia Stands novel the evacuation of the planet was just heartbreaking, where none of the remaining Cadian officers realized Creed was still on-planet until they were high up in orbit, even Creed's staunchest rivals admitted that he was literally the one driving figure that had been keeping them united. Where because of the planet breaking apart, some regiments were either completely cut off from their evacuation sites, some had to abandon their gear and got ambushed by the Iron Warriors. Even more Guardsmen were basically abandoned because of the landers being 'full', some of the evacuation shuttles got shot down trying to escape the planet, and even worse were the landers who tried going back for more Cadians they'd left, only to never return.

@@AAhmou well, kinda I guess. Though most of the Gundam timelines only had Holy Terra and Luna outposts, occasionally Mars. So Abaddon dropping the fortress on Cadia is kinda like a colony drop on Mars or the moon, which no Gundam villain ever tried iirc. So there's no fair comparison.
@@gundamforreal I would guess if we go by proportionate size/manpower, wouldn't you say the colony drop that erased Sydney would be somewhat equivalent?
@@CptPhilippnes I guess if the damage is contained to only Australia, then maybe yes. The problem with a colony drop is that it's probably going to be as devastating as the meteor that wiped out the dinosaurs. Ash and dust clouds that block out the sun for weeks and months, stuff like that, and that's unlikely to stay contained in one area.

The interaction between Dante and Yarrick was pretty legendary the level of respect they showed each other was insane they are two of the best known living legends in warhammer ( I might be mists king the interaction with someone else during Armageddon)
@@nickreynoso1329 Dante is the chapter master of the blood angels and the oldest space marine (non primrch or ) alive he has lived so long that he is the only one who remembers many war zones and planets. He is refered to as Lord Commander Dante Dante has been cheapter master of the blood angels for over a thousand standard years. He is so legendary that when the primearch of the ultra marines came to Baal he did not allow dante to kneel instead he asked the chapter master to stand as equals with him. Then proceeded to name dante as Regent of the Imperium Nihilus ( half of the imperium , the dark half but still) dante was returned from death by the long dead sanguinious, he strapped a large enough nuclear payload onto himself to take out the Silent King when the Silent King requested a meeting to forge an alliance against the Tyranids. This is after there army’s fought themselves to a near standstill. Dante and Tu'Shan the renown chapter master of the salamanders fought side by side against Ghazghkull's and his bodyguard bodyguards. He was able to unite and gain the respect/fealty of the blood angel successor chapters. Durning the second war for Armageddon when Dante came with his blood angels to help his status and ability to command respect that Tu'Shan of the Salamanders and Marneus Calgar of the Ultramarines cede overall command to him (both legends in their own right.) he sided the ultramarines during the Scouring of Ultramar . These are just at hand full of things lord commander Dante is known for.
I think the reason why people see Abbadon throwing the black fortress is that he didn't necessarily know the pylons were there. So in hindsight yeah, solid S-tier tactics, but in the moment it's just being petty and getting rid of a really huge asset on a gamble.
I believe most of the guardsmen are not produced by conventional means. They could never meet the quota if they actually had to wait 9 months for them to pop out and then another 10 years until they can hold a weapon...
Okay. I thought I had a kinda good idea of what went down on Cadia. But hearing that Trazyn threw goddamn pokeballs containing Inquisitors, Ultramarines and a Custodian that he stole was the funniest thing I've heard in a while.
Robotnik is a Tech Priest. He literally tries to turn all living creatures into machines. You know what that means? We need a reading of a 40k Sonic crossover fanfic.
The cadia stands meme came out at such a fun time for me because I love the imperial guard lore and it's so good to see them get a spiritual strengthening note. It also was funny seeing the toxic chaos players (not all of them) at my local store fumming like big babies over a meme
that needs to be made an animation. An alpha legion in a box. I can imagine a loyalist marine cranking a jack in the box and an alpha legionaire pops out with a bolter shooting the loyalist. "Pop goes the loyalist"
Imagine if you will; An Alpha Legion list that involves arriving with no models. Then spending your remaining points in set amounts to roll dice against your opponent for THEIR units. You might turn more or less units so your infiltration might go hilariously bad and you all get gunned down like caught spies, or turn into a last stand for the other guy as 60% of his army turns on him and starts dumping shells on their 'own men'. It's a fun house rule that belongs in an era of Ork Lootas taking other armies' literal weapon options and Iron Warrior Basilisks.
I’m not gonna lie, I was starting to get a bit of tears in my eyes when Creed was sacrificing himself to get the Guard off Cadia. Also: was the Vengeful Spirit destroyed when Abadon rammed it into the BSF?
I love how DK calls the Alpha Legion the Iron Legion and Shy puts up Perturabo because it reminds me as much as people talk about the Alpha Legion being forgot, Iron Hands are perpetually cursed with being overshadowed or mistaken for the Iron Warriors.
I just realized creed is just the guardsmen equivalent of Detective Columbo He's a messy, short, disheveled individual who, in spite of his appearance is the best in the business and is able to outsmart people with more much more resources and preparation than him due to sheer level of intellect and skill that everyone underestimates upon meeting him.
1:22:00 Honestly, if the Imperium won that day and the Necron pylons activated, the Eye of Terror would've been shrunk down. Considerably. If not collapsed entirely. Just imagine the rage of the Chaos Gods for losing their cosmic peep-hole and the daemon primarchs getting their daemon planets destroyed. THAT would have been the big failure that would get Abaddon turned into a chaos spawn.
We can fix Cadia my fellow guardsmen we just need the ancient tech from man kinds golden era, the tech was call duuktap and supahgloo. We must go on a great crusade to find them, come brothers we must journey for Cadia!

Fall of Cadia, or how Abbadon finally managed to take down 1 important imperial world after 13 black crusades after 10k years. To bad he lost a majority of his forces and a Blackstone fortress in the process. Abbadon is truly a master of failing upwards xD
Kinda feel bad for abby, he finally manages to squeeze a win by taking cadia with insane casualties and he gets lucky enough to somehow trigger the rift only to piss of the imperium to the point where they let cawl do his primaris shit, revive ultraman, even start having a better relation with the necrons and eldar and fix the golden throne so it won't become the eye of terror 2, next up is waking up tye lion, and getting mortarion to take a bath
@@mrminecraftcubeable Abbadon will be fine, he's been doing his thing this entire time scratching out his own wins at the expense of his allies. With the daemon primarchs and ultraman now around, its perfect time for Abbadon to retreat into the shadows to work on the next big move while the Imperium focuses on the Daemon Primarchs and trying to reach the dark imperium.
9:45 The Maelstrom, Storm of the Emperor's Wrath, and the other major Warp storms: "Are we a fucking joke to you?" 12:53 Whenever troop/ship/anything numbers are mentioned in 40K, just add zeroes until the number seems the most appropriate for you. Terra has a population of numerous quadrillions according to the Watchers of the Throne novels, which seems reasonable. Another good example is how in the Fall of Cadia cinematic of BFG Armada II, you can see literal swarms of Imperial and Chaos ships duking it out, enough to make the official numbers for the battle of Coruscant seem paltry in comparison. 15:31 Kreig" You gotta pump those numbers up. Those are rookie numbers." Cadia was also first discovered by the Imperium when Lorgar went on his pilgrimage to find Chaos. The neighboring Scarus sector is also named in honor of one of the fallen Word Bearers captains that was with him. Perturabo was the one who coined the term "Eye of Terror", too since he could see it from anywhere in the galaxy since infancy. 20:12 **Loud background Salamanders and Sosoritas noises intensify** 22:02 So something like this continuously for a few months? ua-cam.com/video/gmtk3Kcs_b0/v-deo.html 44:40 The initial battle probably looked something like this: www.deviantart.com/martechi/art/Death-of-the-Garden-Crusade-Impressions-184-848324873 1:01:43 and for all their effort, the Ruinous powers somehow managed to open the Cicatrix a whole 50 degrees off course. The original plan was to have the Warp overtake a direct passage to Terra and overwhelm it. 1:08:36 The new Blackstone books and game states that there is an internal chamber in the fortress over a hundred miles across, and some people calculated the entire fortress to be around 900+ km in size. The Phalanx had been attacked by a fuckoff-hueg daemonic incursion and thus they had to self-destruct a lot of their own weapons to prevent Chaos from taking over it. So the Phalanx, heavily damaged, daemon0infested, and with only like 10% of its weapons functioning, wipes the fucking floor with the Blackstone fortress. also, the size of a moon would be better for the phalanx, it literally has internal storage hangars and chapels so large that unique species and ecosystem with their own climates exist in them.
I see Abaddon's victory as a big apocalypse game but is not going his way that he wanted, then he sees that his losing bad, he then starts a temper tantrum and just flips the table and all the minis goes flying everywhere and he just screams he won.
Well The Deathwatch are not really adept at dealing Daemons. That is for the Grey Knights and the same can be said for the GK they are meh agaisnt xenos. Especially Tyranids
@@JudicialBrat But they still are elite Astartes and they still would have been deadly, The Necrons showed up eventually so they could have showed up and made it make sense in the lore
Cadia is so heavily fortified, that camouflage and fatigues are considered "Civilian Fashion". Every city street is designed to give a defender's advantage at every turn. Where as many planets pay their Tithe in foodstuffs to feed the Hive Worlds, or manufactured products to keep the armies supplied with ammo, and have to also pay a regiment or two of Guardsmen on the side... Meanwhile every Cadian born is given their conscription notice, and then their birth certificate, in that order. Cadia is unique in that it's tithe is paid SOLELY in Guardsmen regiments.
The fall of Cadia. The book that glorifies almost every faction marines, necrons and a bunch of others and leaves the good old guard mostly behind, all things considered. The book about the fall of the Guard, that is basically about everything except the guard. xD
Abaddon actually helped out the Imperium by doing his temper tantrum since the Emperor got a huge Warp buff because of how accessible the Warp is now due to the rift
I saw this from another comment on a video of the same subject-- Abaddon did originally intend to capture Cadia and make it his prize (as Bricky mentioned, Cadia was a bastion of humanity, a physical testament to the strength of the imperium in the face of literal hell itself) but then the Eye of Terror started closing, and he basically had a straight-up panic attack. The closure of the Eye of Terror would have spelt doom for literally every chaos world that was sustained by the Warp flowing through it, which would have been a serious, serious blow to chaos (hell, it may have resulted in their ultimate defeat) and so he made the choice (the only choice, really) to destroy the planet entirely rather than let Chaos fall. The planet broke before the guard did indeed.

Fall of Cadia, or how Abaddon learned to stop losing and love winning
Until he lost again
How Abaddon learned to stop losing and crashed the Blackstone Fortress.
Abandon the crybaby
How it took Abaddon 10,000 years to do what Horus did in 7 years.
« CADIA STAND» Jokes aside, what Abaddon achieve during the fall of cadia was well lets be honest a phyric victory. A.K.A it was not worth it. I mean yeah sure he broke a key strategic point for the imperium, but at a cost way to high:
Kamikazing the Blackstone fortress for one planet was beyond any logic, the thing could have definitly destroyed many other imperial worlds or even space marine chapters but nah let waste it on ONE PLANET. Blackstone Fortress are relic of the past and thus quite the rarety. Abaddon can't just snap his finger to make one pop out of nowhere?
Cadia survive: If abaddon was truly victorious, no Cadian would be left alives, and by that i mean the one that would still be willing to fight. Many of theses guys evacuated the planets and they will form new regiments by sharing cadian war doctrine.
To put it simply, he broke a wall, but ''unfortuantely for him'', there is still a thousand walls behind said wall, and like the moron that he is he somehow wasted all his demolition charge on the first one, wich he should have use to pulverise the rest.

Hail, damned brother. I feel your pain.
I feel they may need an episode to themselves. Just to go over the few possible theories that explain them.
Abbadon: Declares all out war on Caidia
Creed: And I took that personally
Creed: oh. it's that time of year, is it?
It's a shame that the Magpies weren't there
My favorite detail about the fall of Cadia is the guardsmen being flown to safety on the shuttles reported seeing fighting on the PIECES of Cadia that were being blown away and pulled into the warp Cadians refused to give up as their planet was literally cracking up beneath them.
"Sit rep, Lance-corporal"
"Well, our platoon is gone, our unit is under manned, most of us are walking wounded, the planet beneath our feet is now many asteroids, our lack of air support has now transitioned into a lack of space daring support, the atmosphere will completely run out in 90 seconds, we're surrounded by Abaddon's forces not just north to south, west to east but up and down as well, said asteroid we are on is falling into the Eye of Terror and we're down to three crates of lasgun ammunition."
"You know what that sounds like?"
"We're in a target rich environment, Sir?"
"Correct, Lance-corporal. Continue firing at the enemy! CADIA STILL STANDS. FOR THE EMPEROR!"
The planet broke before the guard, and this is the last bit of proof needed to confirm that.
The Planet broke before the gaurd
How much you wanna bet there are pieces of cadia in the warp with platoons still actively fighting on them?
@@neonwalker3223 Oh I'm a full believer Abaddon fucked up. A billion souls got thrown into the warp, where all that matters is willpower, screaming with their last breath that they'd keep fighting no matter what. I 100% believe there are a billion saints in the warp right now. The Legion of the Damned are the Emperor's demon Astartes. Cadians are his demon army.
The planet broke before the guard!
*Proceeds to burst into tears of rage, sadness, and pride at the deaths and strength of cadia.*
Astartes are also known to straight up KILL anyone that speaks badly about Cadians in their presence. There are two that I know of in short stories. One was a Space Wolf that straight up snapped the neck of an Inquisitor mid sentence for calling the Cadians weak. Another was a Black Templar that cut a General's head off for speaking badly about Cadia.
They won't put up with anyone speaking badly about the guard in general, but speaking badly about Cadia is a death sentence when in the presence of an Astartes.
@@Nempo13 Do you happen to remember the names of the stories?
I really would love to read lore about marines showing actual appreciation and respect for the people they were made to protect.
As imperium vessels watched the planet crack into bits, red lines stretched across the planet and reached into the sky.
It was the remaining Guardsmen, either shooting at the daemons on their planet or T the chaos vessels still in the sky, a final "fuck you" to those who had destroyed their world.
To be fair, I think Creed being in Trazyn's vault is, narratively, less of a fate of eternal imprisonment and more of a way for the writers to stash him away until needed.
I expect him to pop up with utmost tactical genius when he'll be needed - and when Trazyn's interests would be best served by releasing him, of course.
And he’ll use his old Tactical Genius ability to pull an entire armored company of tanks out from behind a tree.
Considering that we have Creed's daughter in the game right now, it either means we'll see him soon, or it means we wont see him again for AGES, and I'm honestly not too sure which it is...
When Trazyn lets him out of his pokeball, there will inexplicably be an entire regiment in there. Trazyn didn't put them in there, and Creed isn't talking.

He did trade for a TON of pristine condition geneseed.

Creed holding off Abaddon is like that scene between Cap. America and Thanos by the end of Infinity War. Thanos could implode Cap in like a nanosecond, but he just looks at him like "Mhm... you should be squished. Why are you not squished... well, impressive. Now fuck off tho" and then boops him away.

The event have the same name
The Fall of Reach
The Fall of Cadia
Literally the same name both have a massive army going up against a equally large defense. Minus the clear difference in scale because 40k is 40k and Halo is not 40k. The only difference is that on Reach the UNSC retreated before it was fully glassed while on Cadia the planet broke before the guard did
@@anidiot2284don't disrespect Noble 6. When all else retreated or perished, he alone made the sacrifice that would ultimately save humanity. He alone held the ground for hours, taking out as many of the Covenant as he could. He may not have finished the fight, but he sure as hell kept on fighting until the bitter end
I mean Cadia falling is a recent development but we knew reach fell from day one (technically it was day zero cause the book came out first)

51:14 It is my head-canon that that bell is now sailing through the warp and sometimes it resurfaces to rescue Imperial world being besieged.

It was a FLATTERING defeat. Can't take that from em.
Yeah the most tear jerking moment of the Fall of Cadia is; as the shuttles were flying away, Creed and the entire Cadian 8th stayed behind, still holding the line. Hell in the Cadia Stands novel the evacuation of the planet was just heartbreaking, where none of the remaining Cadian officers realized Creed was still on-planet until they were high up in orbit, even Creed's staunchest rivals admitted that he was literally the one driving figure that had been keeping them united. Where because of the planet breaking apart, some regiments were either completely cut off from their evacuation sites, some had to abandon their gear and got ambushed by the Iron Warriors. Even more Guardsmen were basically abandoned because of the landers being 'full', some of the evacuation shuttles got shot down trying to escape the planet, and even worse were the landers who tried going back for more Cadians they'd left, only to never return.

SHIT THAT'S A APT COMPARISON.
Wait... Does that mean that Abaddon is successful by Gundam standards?
@@AAhmou well, kinda I guess. Though most of the Gundam timelines only had Holy Terra and Luna outposts, occasionally Mars. So Abaddon dropping the fortress on Cadia is kinda like a colony drop on Mars or the moon, which no Gundam villain ever tried iirc. So there's no fair comparison.
@@gundamforreal I would guess if we go by proportionate size/manpower, wouldn't you say the colony drop that erased Sydney would be somewhat equivalent?
@@CptPhilippnes I guess if the damage is contained to only Australia, then maybe yes. The problem with a colony drop is that it's probably going to be as devastating as the meteor that wiped out the dinosaurs.

The cadia stands meme came out at such a fun time for me because I love the imperial guard lore and it's so good to see them get a spiritual strengthening note. It also was funny seeing the toxic chaos players (not all of them) at my local store fumming like big babies over a meme
Cadia Stands and Failbaddon the Armless are two phrases that regularly annoy the crap out of Chaos players.
that needs to be made an animation. An alpha legion in a box. I can imagine a loyalist marine cranking a jack in the box and an alpha legionaire pops out with a bolter shooting the loyalist. "Pop goes the loyalist"
Imagine if you will; An Alpha Legion list that involves arriving with no models. Then spending your remaining points in set amounts to roll dice against your opponent for THEIR units.
You might turn more or less units so your infiltration might go hilariously bad and you all get gunned down like caught spies, or turn into a last stand for the other guy as 60% of his army turns on him and starts dumping shells on their 'own men'.

Bricky: "Im sure Shy will provide supplementary imagery"
Shy: *posts dog stuck in toilet*
People on the top of the eye of terror: oh no we can’t get help from the emperor what’s worse.
Tyranids: yum easy meal 🤩
9:45 The Maelstrom, Storm of the Emperor's Wrath, and the other major Warp storms: "Are we a fucking joke to you?"
12:53 Whenever troop/ship/anything numbers are mentioned in 40K, just add zeroes until the number seems the most appropriate for you. Terra has a population of numerous quadrillions according to the Watchers of the Throne novels, which seems reasonable. Another good example is how in the Fall of Cadia cinematic of BFG Armada II, you can see literal swarms of Imperial and Chaos ships duking it out, enough to make the official numbers for the battle of Coruscant seem paltry in comparison.
15:31 Kreig" You gotta pump those numbers up. Those are rookie numbers."
Cadia was also first discovered by the Imperium when Lorgar went on his pilgrimage to find Chaos. The neighboring Scarus sector is also named in honor of one of the fallen Word Bearers captains that was with him. Perturabo was the one who coined the term "Eye of Terror", too since he could see it from anywhere in the galaxy since infancy.

22:02 So something like this continuously for a few months? ua-cam.com/video/gmtk3Kcs_b0/v-deo.html
44:40 The initial battle probably looked something like this: www.deviantart.com/martechi/art/Death-of-the-Garden-Crusade-Impressions-184-848324873
1:01:43 and for all their effort, the Ruinous powers somehow managed to open the Cicatrix a whole 50 degrees off course. The original plan was to have the Warp overtake a direct passage to Terra and overwhelm it.
1:08:36 The new Blackstone books and game states that there is an internal chamber in the fortress over a hundred miles across, and some people calculated the entire fortress to be around 900+ km in size. The Phalanx had been attacked by a fuckoff-hueg daemonic incursion and thus they had to self-destruct a lot of their own weapons to prevent Chaos from taking over it. So the Phalanx, heavily damaged, daemon0infested, and with only like 10% of its weapons functioning, wipes the fucking floor with the Blackstone fortress. also, the size of a moon would be better for the phalanx, it literally has internal storage hangars and chapels so large that unique species and ecosystem with their own climates exist in them.
I see Abaddon's victory as a big apocalypse game but is not going his way that he wanted, then he sees that his losing bad, he then starts a temper tantrum and just flips the table and all the minis goes flying everywhere and he just screams he won.

After watching this I feel that the saying "The Planet Broke Before The Guard Did" is sooo much more metal and badass
Read the Book
The Gathering Storm Book 1: Fall of Cadia for more better experience
The imperial fist response to not being able to fortify a position is to bring a fortified position with them. It is known as the Phalanx.
All of these people showed up to help Cadia. Except Deathwatch. That kinda bites.
Well The Deathwatch are not really adept at dealing Daemons. That is for the Grey Knights and the same can be said for the GK they are meh agaisnt xenos. Especially Tyranids
@@JudicialBrat But they still are elite Astartes and they still would have been deadly, The Necrons showed up eventually so they could have showed up and made it make sense in the lore
Cadia is so heavily fortified, that camouflage and fatigues are considered "Civilian Fashion". Every city street is designed to give a defender's advantage at every turn.
Where as many planets pay their Tithe in foodstuffs to feed the Hive Worlds, or manufactured products to keep the armies supplied with ammo, and have to also pay a regiment or two of Guardsmen on the side...
Meanwhile every Cadian born is given their conscription notice, and then their birth certificate, in that order. Cadia is unique in that it's tithe is paid SOLELY in Guardsmen regiments.
Chad Horus vs. The Virgin Abbandon.
uno card---> chad Abbadon vs the virgin Horus
The fall of Cadia. The book that glorifies almost every faction marines, necrons and a bunch of others and leaves the good old guard mostly behind, all things considered.
The book about the fall of the Guard, that is basically about everything except the guard. xD
That's why we have the book cadia stands
Abaddon actually helped out the Imperium by doing his temper tantrum since the Emperor got a huge Warp buff because of how accessible the Warp is now due to the rift
The fact that Bricky is scared of anime yet constantly makes amungos jokes makes me fucking I L L.
@Videoms There is a massive difference between anime and worship, heretic.
@Videoms Wtf
I saw this from another comment on a video of the same subject-- Abaddon did originally intend to capture Cadia and make it his prize (as Bricky mentioned, Cadia was a bastion of humanity, a physical testament to the strength of the imperium in the face of literal hell itself) but then the Eye of Terror started closing, and he basically had a straight-up panic attack. The closure of the Eye of Terror would have spelt doom for literally every chaos world that was sustained by the Warp flowing through it, which would have been a serious, serious blow to chaos (hell, it may have resulted in their ultimate defeat) and so he made the choice (the only choice, really) to destroy the planet entirely rather than let Chaos fall.
The planet broke before the guard did indeed.
They held for ten thousand years, and will hold for ten thousand more! Cadia stands! ✊
