  • Following a tragic series of events known as the Nemesis Incident, many of the historical records belonging to the Storm Wardens, including those detailing their origin as well as the identity of their primogenitor Primarch, would become forever lost. So from which of the first founding legions could this proud and noble chapter be descended from?
    This is an updated and remastered video with additional information and correcting a few minor errors.

    You guys forgot my favorite theory, that they're successors of the War Hounds (specifically not the World Eaters, because no butchers nails), they're noble warriors who hope to gain more skill in combat, with weapon specialties originating from the original group they're a part of, and use similar but slightly different fast attack strategies from the White Scars

    I'm just here for Wib's sweet voice since he refuses to make ASMR.

    • @lazerhosen
      @lazerhosen 2 роки тому +1

      Just curios, do people actually experience ASMR from such videos, or do they really just watch them to relax and chill out (or stare at cleavage, depending on the person making the video)?
      I only ask because I typically only experience "autonomous sensory meridian response" from getting very into good music, from something epic and inspiring (usually with accompanying music), or by personal will... never has someone whispering or making soft noises *into a sensitive microphone* given me euphoric waves of tingly goosebumps throughout my body (which is the actual definition of ASMR). Yes, people whispering directly into my ear can cause this, but this is also because of their warm breath and my own personal affinity towards them/sexual arousal (physical effects completely missing from a UA-cam video).
      I know everyone is different, but I don't see *most* ASMR videos as actually being something that could cause this particular physical sensation, and most of them seem to be watched for other reasons (the aforementioned cleavage, or perhaps other fetishes).

    Personally, I would love to see their heritage be the Iron Hands. The connections between them seem to fit better than any other legion, the White Scars coming in at a close second. Everything you mentioned, to their affinity on singling our strong opponents, and even their clan setup just screams Ferrus Manus to me.

    they are maybe hybrides, from 2 loyalist chapters : white scars and because they have this chivalry honor so maybe imperial fist (they remind me black templars and they got something to defend) or dark angels (the knights per excellence chapter, for at least originally purpose).

  • @auraenchanted2503
    @auraenchanted2503 2 роки тому +3

    i actually am fairly certain these are possibly sons of the lion. if we were to open out 8th edition space marines codex (special edition) we will see iconography and depictions of the angels of repentance and angels redeemed. whose names seem to suggest strong connections to the fallen and are very likely not among the unforgiven counted number. in addition the dark angels in the days of the legions had storm iconography the stormwing. the storm wing was also home to the legions artillery formations and fire support elements, and a favored tactic of this the largest wing of the legion was to suppress the enemy and then advance upon them in armored transports.
    in addition this wing possessed both the chief apothecary and chief techmarine of the hexagramaton of the legion prior to the coming of the lion (though losing the chief techmarine to another wing as a result of the restructuring from the 12 brotherhoods). in addition both used a lightning bolt as an icon the stormwings being a golden wing next to a golden thunderbolt in a simple circle.

    @thatlonewolfguy2878 2 роки тому +1

    I like to think they're White Scars successors, but the Iron Hands connection could possibly suggest they're of Chimeric geneseed between 2 loyalist legions as an experiment by the Mechanicus (more than likely Cawl himself) to see what would happen if you crossed two pretty much identical geneseed samples together, both are incredibly stable so there would be little to no reason for any mutation to occur as its basically baseline Astartes geneseed like that of the Ultramarines or Dark Angels so no one would ever suspect a thing, also missed opportunity to mention how they're the Scottish representation in 40k lol, why you gotta do my Highlander bois dirty like that lol

  • @steweygrrr
    @steweygrrr 2 роки тому +1

    The Howling Griffons are also psychotically honour bound Ultramarines successors so there's that in the favour of them being Ultramarines. I'm leaning more towards White Scars though because of the reasons in the video plus the honour thing which the White Scars also observe in the form of hunting down enemies of the Chapter and returning only after they have obtained their target's head.
