Frost Blade. Power field Chainsword. Eisenhorn has a Power sword with no physical blade. He has a Lightsaber. The Frostblade is a lightsaber going around and ontop of the Chainsword's chain teeth. Again, power field Chainsword.
Chainswords. Of all the weapons of 40K, even the blessed Bolter, noting epitomizes the level of balls-to-the-walls crazy, brutal and FUN of 40K, than having chainsaw-sword fights.
As a professional landscape gardener I can say with absolute confidence that a chainsword scares the living shit out of me. I've used chainsaws for a long time and have grown a very healthy measure of respect for the tool. Why is the chainsaw so dangerous? Because it does not cut, it does not saw nor does it grind - it planes. Every tooth is a miniature planer that planes out a splinter of whatever material it catches onto. Oh, about the whole notion of a chainsword catching onto something and digging into it? Very much true, ironically enough the same function is relied upon to stop the chainsaw, the teeth catch onto the nylon fiber's within a pair of safety chaps/pants/overalls and clogging up the drive sprocket inside the housing. Chainsword is truly a weapon to be feared.
Imagine this. You're on the battlefield when a hulking super soldier revs-up a chainsword, then you see and hear the hi-pitched agonizing screaming of the sword slowly ripping into the guy maybe a few meters away, his screaming is the only thing loud enough to be heard over the roaring Chainsword...until only the chainsword and the gore covered wielder remain. Then...he looks at you and takes a step towards you with the weapon growling in front of him, you know full well as does everyone around you, if that weapon connects that your death will be just as slow and horrible. THAT, is the intimidation factor of the chainsword.
except thats not how chainswords work, every description i have read is basicly them cutting trough the target about the same as a normal blade, quick and clean. No slow grinding messy passing one might imagine to experience if a modern chainsaw was used on them. About the psychological part, that would only work on some poorly trained troopes, traitor guardsmen and maybe some young orks. tyranids, chaos marines, necron, practically immune to that. Add to that the high maintenance requirement, personally i would not pick a chainblade over normal blade. To me it seems the bad way outweight the good.
If there is one thing I find slightly annoying, it's the fact that almost every iteration of the greenskins in games and videos shows them having red blood, when anyone know knows the setting will tell you it's green. Right, the other thing I found interesting in this is the mention Cesare Borgia. As someone who enjoyed Assassin's Creed 2 all the way to Revelations, I found the mention of that name oddly humorous.
Hears "Black and White" and stands a little taller. Hears "B.T." and leans closer to his monitor. Sees a Black Templar image and squeals with excitement. Well done.
I have to vouch for Occulus Imperia. His video on the Blood Angels and other Astartes is every bit as good as the videos here. Not to compare of course. But between Occula Imperia and Baldermort they are both the gold standard when it comes to Warhammer 40k lore videos.
I love chain swords, I can't tell you how many times a Chain sword helped my guard in conflicts. I know it's only one extra attack, but that extra die can be the attack that gets thru and kills the tau, space marine, demon, or ork I have faced time and time again on the table top. And now that I have some Catachan's I can't wait to see how they do on the table top. Also when I head Abundance, I got really excited, super pumped for where things are heading!
I've lost things with invulnerable saves against those things, and they're basically the one reason I like the Striking Scorpions more than the Warp Spiders.
Another brilliant guide to the world of Warhammer, Baldermort. Chainswords are easily one of the coolest things in a universe filled with really cool things. The idea of a giant super soldier with a chainsword running into combat against the vile xenos and heretics...it fills my heart with the Emperor's golden light.
Epic words........ Every time I hear you tell stories they bring vivid images to me. Please do more stories with your accent you make awsome stories come to life like no other I have seen.
'Qui gladio ferit. Gladio perit...' - An ancient Terran proverb ‘Chainswords were incredibly destructive weapons, designed to chew through flesh and bone in the blink of an eye. They were devised to mutilate and butcher…’
Yep, I'm that guy screaming "For the Emperor!" In his car as the sons of Dorn charged into the xenos. Thanks to the skill of the narrator. Well done brother Baldermort!
Though in real life a chainsword would have a lot of difficulty cutting through anything close to what we’d make as armor . The idea of it is what’s important and any fictional setting requires our suspension of disbelief, 40k has always been easy to go along with even back when I got into it ( 2nd Ed. ) . So they add a lot to the grim darkness as well as non aerodynamic flyers ( which do look great ) and 1st world war style tanks with slab sides . GW found a great aesthetic in those designs and used them to access that dark part of the imagination where things are essentially brutal to build a fearsome future we’ve all come to love and enjoy so things like physics and hard sciences don’t impinge on a wonderfully bleak universe that we’ve all come to love . Thank you for another outstanding video
Such a beautiful opening story, it's like an older brother coming to his little brother when the schoolyard bully is picking on him. Just about the happiest story I can imagine coming out of the darkness of the far future
The polar opposite of the lightsaber, it's not elegant, not civilized, and nothing close to subtle. It shrieks welcome to the grim dark. And thats why it's the king of weapons.
My perfect Astartes loadout would definitely include an ornate chainsword: a golden Aquila for a hilt guard and a pommel in the shape of a Mechanicum skull encircled by a toothed silver gear(small Latin script on this reading Gloria in Omnissiah) And inscribed along the flat of the blade... can't you guess? That's right: *◇FOR THE EMPEROR◇*
To see that you saw this and liked it makes my day. BTW, i literally made your "brutality" my message tone. I get great joy when i share this video with people. At first the words sounds scary, but when put in context, they love it as much as I do. @@Baldermort
The magnificent elegance of grim brutality. Never will there be a weapon that embodies vicious slaughter, quite like a chainsword. I used to call it the Drove Slayer...but I just felt it sounded cool at the time.
The chainsword is the perfect weapon for the 40k universe, power swords, Lasguns, things like that have been a standard part of scifi universes across all of media, from novels to movies to tv shows, but the chainsword is unique to warhammer, it's messy, gritty, brutal, intimidating and over the top, just like 40k.
First time I’ve been early to one of your videos. But when you drop a new video I got to drop everything I’m doing to listen to that amazing voice and story telling ablity I’ve grown so fond of from your channel
Oh! So the abundance saga ramps up! It must be a truly colossal WAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!! to need both the sons of Rogal AND Dorn. Perhaps colossal enough to draw in the silver armed ones? The chain sword in my opinion is a weapon for a purpose. A power blade is for the heretic and civil xenos such as Aeldari or Necrons. A chain weapon however is for beasts. Orks. Tyranids. Daemons. Truly another symbol of the Grimdarkness .
Thank you Lord Baldermort. I appreciate your content and love the gravitas you put into the texts of the black library and your narrative overall! Keep up the good work, cheers!

@@Gorbz Well, I assume Orkz have some variation on the Killsaw that they'd use, which is suitably impressive, and would be closer to the design I'd hope for. I'm not super familiar with Eldar weapons, to the point I didn't know they had chainsword equivalents to begin with, so wouldn't know where to start. And, uh, dunno of anyone else with chainswords, a proclivity for punching people, and an insatiable hunger to do both at the same time.
Very well done mate. I must say that your range reminds me a great deal of Simon Templeman. Wonderfully, you aren't type-cast and have the freedom to test your range. And it is so very wonderful for we, your audience. I mean that as the sincerest of compliments, not a petty comparison. I hold him in the same regard as Patrick Stewart. You, Sir, are in good company. Thank you for such heart-felt sharing of the lore. Thank you for such magnificent voice acting. Thank you most for the enjoyment you bring into my life.
Sir bald , you always manage to capture the images I have of the characters and factions of war hammer in a brilliant way. Yes your voice is perfect for narrating the setting but your short stories and creativity are 2nd to none. Black library should give you a call. Really enjoy your content. Thanks again.
Fun Fact: the chainswords used by Eldar Striking Scorpions include a sonic manipulator. With a command they can be a quiet as a whisper or roar louder than an Imperial chainsword. It is a favorite tactic of thiers to go from quiet to roaring just as they burst from concealment to attack. They better to inspire panic in thier foes.
Was just thinking about how every franchise that Henry Cavill loves and champions get woked to death - Superman, The Witcher and now Warhammer. The poor guy!
I know the power sword is stronger, even on the tabletop, more elegant and hi tech. But the sound. Ooooh the sound of a chainsword is like hearing the end coming.
Very good video. As always. One individual in Warhammer I would love to see you cover is Magnus the Red. I know the videos on the Primarchs take a LOT of time and effort but it would most certainly be worth the wait, however long it might be.
Baldermort does it again, adding knowledge and passion to the grim darkness of the far future ! ! ! As I have said before and will say it again - No one out Baldermorts - Baldermort ! !
The chain family of weapons are the preferred melee choice for those consumed by rage and hatred. By choosing it you’re making serious sacrifices and imposing strict limits on your abilities. However you make those sacrifices because inflicting pain on your enemy is more important than practicality. It’s a weapon for those who want to punish an enemy rather than simply eliminate them. The real terror isn’t necessarily the weapon itself. The real terror is the wielder who willingly gimps themselves with a loud, fuel hungry, heavy melee weapon that suffers against armor in an effort to make their enemy’s death as unbearably agonizing as possible. Imagine the state of mind you’d have to be in to be willing to stand right in front of someone not just getting killed by your own hand, but being utterly ripped to pieces and feel nothing but contempt for your foe. Terrifying, simply terrifying.
If I where a billionaire i would pay you vast sums of money to live at my house and dictate things to me. You have the perfect voice for this kind of topic.
Throne bless the chainsword! The big bad grungy cousin of the vibroblade who's into Industrial metal and wears denim jackets with the sleeves cut off. Absurd? Assuredly. Awesome? Oh... oh yes, *oh yes indeed*.
Oh yes, a casual meeting of the sons of Rogal Dorn. It is nice to see them interact with each other. Black Templars are these hyperactive youngest brothers, and the Crimson Fists are the chilled-out middle children.

Energy Swords are stronger.
But Chainswords are 500% more Grimdark.
Gave you a like but they're not, you can try to block a energy sword with a shield or whatever, you can only try to dodge a chainsword.
M well I mean you can still block the chain sword it’s just really fuckin hard to do and you’d probably get your shield ripped away from you

As a professional landscape gardener I can say with absolute confidence that a chainsword scares the living shit out of me. I've used chainsaws for a long time and have grown a very healthy measure of respect for the tool. Why is the chainsaw so dangerous? Because it does not cut, it does not saw nor does it grind - it planes. Every tooth is a miniature planer that planes out a splinter of whatever material it catches onto. Oh, about the whole notion of a chainsword catching onto something and digging into it? Very much true, ironically enough the same function is relied upon to stop the chainsaw, the teeth catch onto the nylon fiber's within a pair of safety chaps/pants/overalls and clogging up the drive sprocket inside the housing.
Chainsword is truly a weapon to be feared.
Had to use a chainsaw to bring down a dead tree in my yard....you know darn well what I was thinking about as I used it 😂
I know exactly what you mean, I’ve got my chainsaw ticket but they still give me pause after seeing what they can do
I have no problem running a chainsaw. I don't like being near someone else running one.
Eh remove the limiter, attach a motorcycle engine and then enlarge and sharpen see where that gets yah
I have seen someone get a "minor" wound from poorly handling a chainsaw on the job, I would be terrifed if that guy got a chainsword.
