It's very clear in the Tolkien lore that of the Orcs, only the Uruk-hai were notably stronger than Men. Orcs definitely needed superior numbers in order to overcome any force of Men, and Sauron's true military strength lay in the human kingdoms over which he held sway.

The lesser rings were resisted by the “machine like” minds of the dwarves, so their only effect was an increase in avarice. The mechanical mind of a totally unfeeling necron could in theory resist the ring indefinitely.

Aeldari and Drukhari would just go massively into trying to kill Slaanesh, Orks would probably evolve to become a Krork given the power, corruption isn't really gonna make them do anything they're not already doing, Necron's have no souls to corrupt so they should be fine, the Tau would just become another Aun'Va and keep spreading The Greater Good, and CSM changes depending on the legion
Chaos Space Marines hear voices all the time, the Ring's whisperings would be drowned out. The Ring would tell any Ork to overthrow the Warboss and take his place, which is what every Ork already spends his spare time thinking about.
Alpha Legion Marine gets corrupted by the ring and travels to the Mordor to turn in the ring to Sauron. At the last moment he reveals that he's actually Alpharius and jumps into the Mount Doom, destroying the ring. (But in reality, it was Sauron who jumped in, and the real Alpharius who was disguising as Omegon pretending to be Alpharius takes on to being the Sauron.)
I haven't played Space Marine 2, and I've never really read a 40k book, but I do think the _FUN_ option is Titus jumping into the lava with the ring, after realizing he can't fight said ring.
The ring: use my power Titus: No Ring: why not? Titus: Fingers Ring: what? Titus: My fingers. Even if I wished to wear the ring, which I don’t, the ring fits on a hobbit or a human. Mine are far too large, it wouldn’t even fit on my pinky. Ring:… Titus: also my duty is to the emperor so begone foul taint *drops into mount doom without a second thought*
Funny joke, but the ring is expressly shown changing sizes when it shrinks to fit its new bearer after being cut from Sauron's massive armored fingers.
12:25 This is definitely the question of the hour. I think this depends on if he goes it solo or if he goes with two others. If Galadriel and Chairon were there (and this takes place after the events of SM2), I think they’d work together, passing the ring around in addition to being open enough to keep each other on the right path. We did see that Frodo would have failed had Sam not been there, so a band of brothers would have a chance. As for Titus on his own, it would depend on how fast Titus could travel. In the end of SM2, it’s theorized that the voice that speaks to Titus is the emperor himself, and from other events in 40K, the emperor has spoken to his followers in a time of need, such as when he spoke to the primarch Vulkan when he almost wavered. That being said, unlike a hobbit, Titus’ loyalty to the emperor would definitely be how the ring corrupts and tricks him, so much like what others have said, it’s pretty likely that Titus would fail to destroy the ring
Don’t forget the events of space marine 1, Titus punched a daemon prince to death, an entity whose power can rival a greater daemon. I’d say the Balrog is an even fight, but I’d bet money on Titus. He also held the raw power of the warp in his hands. While the ring corrupts absolutely so in turn does the literal realm of the galaxies combined nightmares. Titus held the raw power of pure evil, and crushed it without a second thought. Titus definitely throws the ring into lava every time.
Are we forgetting that space marines, especially named main characters like Titus are built a bit different even from regular space marines? First off we let out the part where the avrg space marine is a tactical genius (while not always obvious from lore). Titus would not go in face first into the black gates and march to mount doom. Him personally is a great tactician, pulls off some incredible shit even by space marine standards, and seems to be directly touched/favored by Big E (see latest Space Marine 2 update; They updated who tells him to get up). Titus would evaluate the situation, find a plan and infiltrate. Other than than cool video :D
Oh and also titus would be able to use unlimited ranged weapons. Lasguns are made to charge from any heat source, like fire. It is why the astra militarum use them, as they are easy to mass produce easy to recharge. Sure, they do not pack a punch like a heavy bolter or standard space marine gear, but then again, they still melt anything in Middle Earth armor wise. Giving him a plasma weapon of sorts would be ok imo.
I honestly think Titus would resist the corruption, just as he resists the warp device, *if* this mission is after the events of SM1 & SM2. After being tortured by Thrax and witnessing the folly of the Mechanicus, I'm sure he's learned that there is never a good excuse to use such a power, like he once did to destroy the orbital spire in the first game.
I don't think there is any way Titus could resist the Ring for a few reasons. 1: You don't have to wear it for it to influence you. (eg: Boromir, Sam, Gollum,) It simply has a greater and more explicit effect if you do. 2: It can corrupt beings way more powerful then Titus. (eg: Gandalf, Galadriel, Saruman) 3: It can corrupt powerful beings with singular good purposes. (The Istari were sent literally and explicitly to counter Sauron.) 4: The Rings corruption is much different then chaos corruption, so while willpower would still be applicable, ring corruption doesn't actually have a defence. If you are a person with great desires, it will get you. (The only time it has no effect was on Tom Bombadil who is both totally uncaring, and to powerful for it to offer him anything.) 5: The Rings influence gets stronger the closer to Mount Doom you are, or if you take the Ring by force. (This is why no one can throw it in willingly, even if possesing it only for a short time, and why no one can make them throw it in, since either way would massivley increase its hold over you.) The only way to circumvent this was to have Gollum fall in while possesing the Ring. 6: Titus could wear the Ring since it can change size at will. But I don't know much about Titus so let me know if any of these points don't apply.
A couple of things about Titus. He has resistance to chaos not because of any innate resistance, (though space marines are made from the emperor’s dna giving them a much higher degree of warp resistance) he is given protection by the emperor. The emperor’s protection would also protect him from the ring’s influence. A space marine is quite heavily indoctrinated unlike pretty much anyone in LoR, their duty and desire is to die in service to the emperor, they do not fear death. If destroying the ring is his duty to the emperor then there is no way to stop him via corruption of his ambition. At most, the ring could make him destroy himself if he could not throw it away. He would destroy the ring by throwing himself and the ring into the mountain without even a second thought. As a side note, 40k is a universe developed from the same fantasy line behind LoR and D&D. Just on a galactic scale with the power levels turned up to make everything overpowered to ridiculous levels. The chaos corruption etc… of 40k is almost a direct comparison to the corruption exhibited by the rings of power. There are many chaos artefacts in 40k that have the same corrupting influence as the rings of power so “the one ring” would just be another of the untold amount of artefacts chaos artefacts in the 40k universe. These artefacts have the power to corrupt entire worlds within a short amount of time. It’s part of the reason space marines exist, to combat these untold horrors.
While Titus couldn't do it, there is an Astartes who can. A Gray Knight. Garran Crowe. The guy who wields the Black Blade of Antwyr. He has no great desires and he has the emotional range of a rock. Literally. It's why he's able to wield the blade to keep it contained when even other Gray Knights get tempted even being in its presence. He's in a constant psychic battle with the daemon. 24/7. The daemon is constantly whispering in his mind trying absolutely everything it can to tempt him and he just ignores it. He never uses the weapon's power despite it arguably being one of the most powerful weapons in the entire setting. He just uses it like a normal sword. This one Gray Knight could absolutely drop the One Ring in the fires of Mount Doom without a moments thought, consideration, or hesitation.
@@TjarkoTarnena space marine’s indoctrincatiom means jack shit and fuck all when it comes to resisting any sort of corruption. Literally half of the legions fell to chaos and 40k has loyalists marines falling to chaos extremely often.
@@kinoman4875 I was speaking in the context of LOTR to 40k troops. A chapter is indoctrinated with their own chapter’s doctrine and space marines are often more loyal to their chapter then to the imperium. Son’s follow their father’s is the main theme throughout much of 40k lore. Even so, many of the greatest heroes where those who left their legions and chapters behind when they turned. Titus is a goody two shoes ultramarine who’s sense of duty to the emperor is unquestionable even among ultramarines.
A interesting question also would have been how our fearless Space Marine would have reacted to the Elves of LOTR since the Man and the Eldar aren't exactly friends.
Pretty sure Titus could just walk into Mordor and beat the ever loving shit out of anything in his path and bring down the tower of barad dur with a few melta bombs making the ring redundant 😂
In any of the combat situations Titus would identify command elements and take the assault directly to them, leaving the foe leaderless and disorganized, ripe for the pickings from regular troops.
“Even if I am slain, I will leave you with wound by which you will remember me!” -Demetrian Titus to the Balrog and Nazgûl “If the Emperor had wanted you to live, he would not have created *me!”* -Malum Caedo to the orcs and mouth of Sauron.
I think he'd realise he was corrupted by its power and, unable to simply cast it aside, would make the sacrifice to end the ring at the expense of his life.
4:14 And THAT is how the Ring would get Titus. Not through an ambition for power, but from a desire to fulfill his duty to the Imperium and Emperor. And what better way to server the Emperor than to use the One Ring to crush his enemies?
The question is how long would it take. Space Marines are already tough nuts to crack, and not only has Titus shown to be especially resilient in this regard, but if we are assuming this is after the events of Space Marine 2, he will have seen the whole “using an evil artifact for good only for it to go to shit” thing play out twice, so the ring would have its work cut out for it. I don’t doubt that the ring could corrupt him eventually. But it would take years, probably decades, to fully get to him. And he would definitely be able to get to mount doom before that.
@@everwinter0 Fair point, the fellowship learns of the power, evil and corruption of the ring though, so it’s a bit different then a necron sword or the like.
Balrogs (don’t think I spelled that right) are minor gods like Gandalf but they don’t have too hold back which is why Gandalf defeating the balrog was so important and impressive he defeated an enemy that should have matched if not overpowered him and he just up and won anyway
Now imagine Ghazghull Mag Uruk Thraka, or another major ork Warlord; like the Beast, Urlakk Urg or Gharkul Blackfang from the Great Crusade or a Krork, in Middle Earth? Morgoth and Sauron: “I like this one.” Ghazghull: “Youz ain’t Gork or Mork, ya spiky gitz.” *chambers arm cannons* Luthien: *utter terror* “Eru help us.” Manwe: *feels a very human chill running down his spine* “I don’t think he can.” Eru: *flicks finger firing a blast that could crack a continent open at the twin ork gods* Gork and Mork: *completely unaffected* Gork: *grinning* “Now Youz speekn ma langwege.” Mork: “Waz dat supposd to do sumtin?” Eru the one and only god: *feels a very human chill run down his spine* Celebrimbor and Talion: *Grab Ghaz’s head* “Suffer me Now!” Ghazghull: *Arm cannons go dakka dakka dakka dakka* Krork: “If the Old Ones or Gork and Mork had wanted you to exist, they would not have created *ME!”* The villains: *nervous* “Ha ha; I’m in danger.” Everyone else: *crapping bricks* “Nope!” *kills self* Angron: “Are really going to die over some human?” Ghazghull: “One ov us iz.”
I honestly don’t really think that anyone from any universe would/could destroy the One Ring. As much as I absolutely adore 40k and a lot of its characters I think people tend to forget that it is written by Tolkien that the ring will in fact corrupt you one way or another. Once you are in Mount Doom it’s effectively over. Frodo could not throw it in nor could Isildor because they literally aren’t capable of performing the action and that’s part of the ring’s defenses. This is why Sauron was confident no one could destroy the One Ring, not because he thought their wills were too weak but because he knew that it actually isn’t possible for someone to bring themselves to destroy the ring. Even Sauron himself, master of the Ring, would not and could not bring himself to destroy it even if that was the only thing he wanted in all of middle earth. That’s why it’s written with Gollum in the mix. The ring wasn’t destroyed because someone threw it into the fire it was destroyed because two people desperate to keep the ring fought at the edge of the lava and the one holding the ring fell in. Frodo was even ready to jump into the flames after him just to maybe have a chance at getting the ring for a few more moments. The Ring isn’t something you can just be mentally strong enough to resist. Maybe during the journey sure but once you’re at your destination there’s not a whole lot you can do
Technically, the ring can change its size to fit its bearer. In the books, Isildur lost the ring because it made itself bigger so it fell off his finger. I mean do you honestly expect a ring big enough to fit Sauron would also fit a hobbit?
I'm not sure if Tolkien ever explicitly said it, but it was definitely implied that the One Ring's corruptive influence was so strong that it was physically impossible to willfully destroy it. As in; no being in middle earth could intentionally throw it into Mount Doom any more than they could uncook an egg or stop the sun from setting.
@@taliawtf6944 Gandalf and Saruman were both literal angels hand picked by gods sent to middle earth for the express purpose of defeating Sauron and even they couldn't ignore the ring's influence.
@@jamesmclemore9123Crippled lesser angels. The word angel just means messenger, it’s why the space marines are “angels of death” because they are “messengers of death” it’s their job.
Haha...no. The emperor himself would be instantly corrupted if he wore it. The ring absolutely LOVES people who follow tyrannical ideologies. The only people who could carry the ring to the end are those who are truly selfless and humble in stature-like a ratling!
The ring also corrupts people with ambition. Even the purest of beings such as Gandalf or Galadriel would fall to it as they had ambition to make world a better place. In harmless ways, sure, but the ring uses that ambition, corrupting it. The only reason why Bilbo and Sam were not taken over was because they didn't have any ambitons. Sam wanted to grow his own garden and that's it. The ring tried, but could not understand Sam's lack of said ambition. It also took a while for the ring to get hold of Bilbo and Frodo, but even tho they had no ambition, they simply wanted to go on adventures, the ring eventually got to them. The Emperor is falling instantly, even with all of his warp and chaos resistances.
@@zeehero7280 It was unable to corrupt Tom Bombadil. The ring could corrupt Emperor by him simply looking at it. Do not forget, this man was willing to juice himself up with warp juice in order to beat Horus, before he was talked out of it. Emperor is falling to the ring, almost instantly.
Are you saying that an astartes would stuggel against Lotr orcs and goblins, I get he would be outnumbered but they are week compared to even a normal human
If Titus entered mordor at a dead sprint and didn't stop, nothing in order would be able to stop him. A 2000 lb dude running at like 50 mph. He wouldn't have to fight 😊

While yes the Ring would eventually corrupt Titus... it would take a long time and he would def be able to destroy it before then. While Imurah tried to corrupt Titus by making him question his Devotion and Faith, Nemeroth tried to corrupt Titus through Glory and his desire to serve the Imperium... while the Ring would still get him that experience will help resist it. Though if this was a Custodes... heh... not a crack... The Ring would have an easier time with Sam that with those Automatons.
Titus in middle earth would be corrupted because the point of the story is that soldiers can't solve every problem. The ring in the 40k Galaxy would not corrupt Titus because the point of the story is that the Ultramarines have Ultra in their name and win. What I'm saying is that the ring would have home field advantage
I don't think Titus could make it. He could destroy the rimg if he didn't use it, but if he didn't use it to get through Mordor, he'd be overwhelmed and killed. Damned if he does, damned if he doesn't.
A lot of people here are saying that the Emperor would be corrupted by it, which is probably true, but could a custodian do the feat? They feel nothing but devotion and loyalty to their emperor, and they could destroy the ring, so long as the emperor never wears it.
Devotion to the Emperor and to serve by his will is an ambition, and as such, would fall only in time to the draw of the ring. Also Custodes are a lot more individualistic than even the Astartes, they are very personal and unique in their beliefs.
@@Buster-McTunder but if the emperor told them to destroy it, they would want to destroy it and nothing more. I just think that loyalty to the emperor takes power over the ring’s corruption. Now, if they just happened to find the ring, they might want to use it, but if it was the emperor’s will to destroy, I don’t think they would be corrupted. Of course, I could be wrong.
In what way could it corrupt the emperor more then he is already corrupt would be my question? Haha He is already the dictator of the entire galaxy, thousands of souls sacrificed to keep him alive every day. Untold horrible things he did to unit humanity under his power. He makes Sauron look pathetic with the power and influence he has, what use would the ring be to him?
@@jakethejapan1029 Yes, but he dies with the other Nazgul when Mount Doom erupts. Since the hypothetical story takes place during LOTR he would be a Nazgul and would be defeated and released with the others.
No. Space marine will not bring the one ring to mt doom. Space marines often fall to chaos corrupted. Due to ambition. And ambition is something ring exploits that's why hobbits were entrusted the ring , coz they had no ambition. Gandalf who basically an angel didn't want to even touch the ring for he feared that ring would corrupt him to be even worse than saruman
I mean ultramarines have fought off corruption for 10k years. If they could fight off temptations beings far greater than anything in lotr, they could probably resist the ring. But that's just a game theory
uuuuhhhhhhh........ dude these are to different things my guy warhammer 40k and lord of the rings are different from each other. your videos are amazing but putting two universes who don't compare just doesn't make sense.
Nah. Tyranids have both numbers and bio engineered, monomolecular weapons capable of actually damaging power armour. Lotr orcs have essentially clubs bashing against a literal ton of a walking tank. Walking through the front door of mordoor would just be a walk through a park. And thats for an ultramarine. Salamander sees the dragons of lotr and would just go “cute. Its like a pet baby dragon version of the dragons back home i have to deal with…. Without my weapon and armour…. Heaven help them if a librarian, grey knight, raven guard or white scar(or any brother chapter of the last two) get dropped in. Hell the raven guard would just look at the massive giant, inteligent eagles and just go “i’ve found one of my people” before lassoing that b and treating it like a new mount to replace the ravens they use as familiars

One space marine isn’t enough to destroy the one ring. You need a Custodes, mainly because of their incorruptibility to the influence of the ring. Otherwise maybe a grey knight, but I’m not sure. Another problem is the witch king of Angmar, who is even more powerful that the balrog and on top of that is bounded by fate to be killed only at the hands of a woman. You know what the perfect candidate to do the job is a sister of silence now that I think about it. Just to be clear I’m talking about the movies not the books. Even the Nazgûl can blow up mountains in the books so you will need Sanguinus or Vulcan to do the job (just don’t show any elves to Vulcan please).
In a sense, a Balrog is a Bloodthirster. Back in the day- before 40k, before Warhammer proper- Citadel Miniatures had a license to produce LOTR figures, including a Balrog or three. Fast forward a little, Warhammer was invented, with the idea of being able to use any and every available Citadel mini, including the Balrog. When Citadel lost the license, the Balrog was renamed, then dropped altogether- and the Bloodthirster was it's direct replacement, same stats and all. And of course, Titus wouldn't stop at Sauron and the orcs- the elves are clearly Xenos, and Gandalf a psyker or warp being; untrusted allies of moment, to be purged later. Hobbits, dwarves and numenoreans would be seen as mutants, and even individual human lives are held in little regard. Given time and a few squad-mates, Middle-Earth would be left a blasted industrial wasteland, it's humans forced to toil for the glory of the Emperor.
@@voidtempering8700 The ring was destroyed by throwing it into the lava in Mount Doom. A plasma gun would tear the lava apart into it's constituent elements. And if Sauron was that powerful, why did he even need to forge the one ring there? And how on earth would a being that powerful be able to be defeated by a mortal and have the ring cut from his hand? Do you know how powerful a plasma pistol is in 40k? It cuts through sci-fi tank armour like it's butter. It would tear the matter the one ring was made of apart at the atomic level and every single electron would rip away from the atoms. One thing I do find funny though, is that if a single 40k ork were to appear on Middle Earth, within a century or two all the other races and beings would be dead. Humans, dwarves, elves, dragons, balrogs, giants, sorcerers, all slaughtered.
@@SarthorS The Balrogs and Sauron scale to beings that can easily shatter mountains and sink islands. Not to mention there are beings that can create and destroy universes, who Sauron scales to.
@@voidtempering8700 Sauron and the Balrogs were Maiar, like Gandalf and Saruman. Basically angels. Sauron was the most powerful, but still a lesser being. He was a servant of the Valar Morgoth, essentially a god. I have heard nothing to suggest that even Morgoth could destroy the universe. He most certainly could not create them, or anything for that matter. Only Iluvatar, the creator god held the power of creation. Morgoth and Sauron could not create as much as a speck of dirt. Sauron was also first defeated by a human with a sword, and Gandalf defeated a Balrog.
“You call this sorry pathetic waste of space an Ork? The comparison is an insult to the xenos.”
It's very clear in the Tolkien lore that of the Orcs, only the Uruk-hai were notably stronger than Men. Orcs definitely needed superior numbers in order to overcome any force of Men, and Sauron's true military strength lay in the human kingdoms over which he held sway.

(But in reality, it was Sauron who jumped in, and the real Alpharius who was disguising as Omegon pretending to be Alpharius takes on to being the Sauron.)
If we’re just dropping weird evil artifacts into Warhammer 40K… let’s see what sort of chaos happens if you place All-Black the Necrosword there.
I haven't played Space Marine 2, and I've never really read a 40k book, but I do think the _FUN_ option is Titus jumping into the lava with the ring, after realizing he can't fight said ring.
Tbh this is probably what would happen if he somehow failed to throw it in. Only in death does duty end.
Titus is literally incorruptible. Not once but twice did he fight of chaos corruption
The ring: use my power
Titus: No
Ring: why not?
Titus: Fingers
Ring: what?
Titus: My fingers. Even if I wished to wear the ring, which I don’t, the ring fits on a hobbit or a human. Mine are far too large, it wouldn’t even fit on my pinky.
Ring:…
Titus: also my duty is to the emperor so begone foul taint *drops into mount doom without a second thought*
Funny joke, but the ring is expressly shown changing sizes when it shrinks to fit its new bearer after being cut from Sauron's massive armored fingers.
@@Fourger14 good point, forgot about that
12:25 This is definitely the question of the hour. I think this depends on if he goes it solo or if he goes with two others. If Galadriel and Chairon were there (and this takes place after the events of SM2), I think they’d work together, passing the ring around in addition to being open enough to keep each other on the right path. We did see that Frodo would have failed had Sam not been there, so a band of brothers would have a chance.
As for Titus on his own, it would depend on how fast Titus could travel. In the end of SM2, it’s theorized that the voice that speaks to Titus is the emperor himself, and from other events in 40K, the emperor has spoken to his followers in a time of need, such as when he spoke to the primarch Vulkan when he almost wavered. That being said, unlike a hobbit, Titus’ loyalty to the emperor would definitely be how the ring corrupts and tricks him, so much like what others have said, it’s pretty likely that Titus would fail to destroy the ring
Don’t forget the events of space marine 1, Titus punched a daemon prince to death, an entity whose power can rival a greater daemon. I’d say the Balrog is an even fight, but I’d bet money on Titus. He also held the raw power of the warp in his hands. While the ring corrupts absolutely so in turn does the literal realm of the galaxies combined nightmares. Titus held the raw power of pure evil, and crushed it without a second thought. Titus definitely throws the ring into lava every time.
Are we forgetting that space marines, especially named main characters like Titus are built a bit different even from regular space marines?
First off we let out the part where the avrg space marine is a tactical genius (while not always obvious from lore). Titus would not go in face first into the black gates and march to mount doom. Him personally is a great tactician, pulls off some incredible shit even by space marine standards, and seems to be directly touched/favored by Big E (see latest Space Marine 2 update; They updated who tells him to get up).
Titus would evaluate the situation, find a plan and infiltrate. Other than than cool video :D
Oh and also titus would be able to use unlimited ranged weapons. Lasguns are made to charge from any heat source, like fire. It is why the astra militarum use them, as they are easy to mass produce easy to recharge. Sure, they do not pack a punch like a heavy bolter or standard space marine gear, but then again, they still melt anything in Middle Earth armor wise. Giving him a plasma weapon of sorts would be ok imo.
I honestly think Titus would resist the corruption, just as he resists the warp device, *if* this mission is after the events of SM1 & SM2. After being tortured by Thrax and witnessing the folly of the Mechanicus, I'm sure he's learned that there is never a good excuse to use such a power, like he once did to destroy the orbital spire in the first game.
I don't think there is any way Titus could resist the Ring for a few reasons.
1: You don't have to wear it for it to influence you. (eg: Boromir, Sam, Gollum,) It simply has a greater and more explicit effect if you do.
2: It can corrupt beings way more powerful then Titus. (eg: Gandalf, Galadriel, Saruman)
3: It can corrupt powerful beings with singular good purposes. (The Istari were sent literally and explicitly to counter Sauron.)
4: The Rings corruption is much different then chaos corruption, so while willpower would still be applicable, ring corruption doesn't actually have a defence. If you are a person with great desires, it will get you. (The only time it has no effect was on Tom Bombadil who is both totally uncaring, and to powerful for it to offer him anything.)
5: The Rings influence gets stronger the closer to Mount Doom you are, or if you take the Ring by force. (This is why no one can throw it in willingly, even if possesing it only for a short time, and why no one can make them throw it in, since either way would massivley increase its hold over you.) The only way to circumvent this was to have Gollum fall in while possesing the Ring.
6: Titus could wear the Ring since it can change size at will.
But I don't know much about Titus so let me know if any of these points don't apply.
A couple of things about Titus.
He has resistance to chaos not because of any innate resistance, (though space marines are made from the emperor’s dna giving them a much higher degree of warp resistance) he is given protection by the emperor. The emperor’s protection would also protect him from the ring’s influence.
A space marine is quite heavily indoctrinated unlike pretty much anyone in LoR, their duty and desire is to die in service to the emperor, they do not fear death.
If destroying the ring is his duty to the emperor then there is no way to stop him via corruption of his ambition. At most, the ring could make him destroy himself if he could not throw it away. He would destroy the ring by throwing himself and the ring into the mountain without even a second thought.
As a side note, 40k is a universe developed from the same fantasy line behind LoR and D&D. Just on a galactic scale with the power levels turned up to make everything overpowered to ridiculous levels.
The chaos corruption etc… of 40k is almost a direct comparison to the corruption exhibited by the rings of power. There are many chaos artefacts in 40k that have the same corrupting influence as the rings of power so “the one ring” would just be another of the untold amount of artefacts chaos artefacts in the 40k universe. These artefacts have the power to corrupt entire worlds within a short amount of time. It’s part of the reason space marines exist, to combat these untold horrors.
While Titus couldn't do it, there is an Astartes who can. A Gray Knight. Garran Crowe. The guy who wields the Black Blade of Antwyr.
He has no great desires and he has the emotional range of a rock. Literally. It's why he's able to wield the blade to keep it contained when even other Gray Knights get tempted even being in its presence.
He's in a constant psychic battle with the daemon. 24/7. The daemon is constantly whispering in his mind trying absolutely everything it can to tempt him and he just ignores it.
He never uses the weapon's power despite it arguably being one of the most powerful weapons in the entire setting. He just uses it like a normal sword.
This one Gray Knight could absolutely drop the One Ring in the fires of Mount Doom without a moments thought, consideration, or hesitation.
@@noneofyourbusiness2437 Garran Crowe is a pretty epic character, loved him ever since his release.
@@TjarkoTarnena space marine’s indoctrincatiom means jack shit and fuck all when it comes to resisting any sort of corruption. Literally half of the legions fell to chaos and 40k has loyalists marines falling to chaos extremely often.
@@kinoman4875 I was speaking in the context of LOTR to 40k troops. A chapter is indoctrinated with their own chapter’s doctrine and space marines are often more loyal to their chapter then to the imperium. Son’s follow their father’s is the main theme throughout much of 40k lore. Even so, many of the greatest heroes where those who left their legions and chapters behind when they turned.
Titus is a goody two shoes ultramarine who’s sense of duty to the emperor is unquestionable even among ultramarines.
A interesting question also would have been how our fearless Space Marine would have reacted to the Elves of LOTR since the Man and the Eldar aren't exactly friends.
Pretty sure Titus could just walk into Mordor and beat the ever loving shit out of anything in his path and bring down the tower of barad dur with a few melta bombs making the ring redundant 😂
In any of the combat situations Titus would identify command elements and take the assault directly to them, leaving the foe leaderless and disorganized, ripe for the pickings from regular troops.
This is the kind of over the top crossover slop that I eat up.
“Even if I am slain, I will leave you with wound by which you will remember me!”
-Demetrian Titus to the Balrog and Nazgûl
“If the Emperor had wanted you to live, he would not have created *me!”*
-Malum Caedo to the orcs and mouth of Sauron.
It's too powerful for one will. It's not too powerful for two wills. The Emperor Protects. The Emperor has his Eye on Titus.
He should do more of these videos, it’s actually entertaining
Better let Garran Crowe take care of it. He has superhuman willpower from being trusted with the Blade of Antwyr.
I think he'd realise he was corrupted by its power and, unable to simply cast it aside, would make the sacrifice to end the ring at the expense of his life.
4:14 And THAT is how the Ring would get Titus. Not through an ambition for power, but from a desire to fulfill his duty to the Imperium and Emperor. And what better way to server the Emperor than to use the One Ring to crush his enemies?
The question is how long would it take. Space Marines are already tough nuts to crack, and not only has Titus shown to be especially resilient in this regard, but if we are assuming this is after the events of Space Marine 2, he will have seen the whole “using an evil artifact for good only for it to go to shit” thing play out twice, so the ring would have its work cut out for it.
I don’t doubt that the ring could corrupt him eventually. But it would take years, probably decades, to fully get to him. And he would definitely be able to get to mount doom before that.
The Inqusition would almost certainly know how to make a box which can block the corruption. they deal with that kind of thing all the time.
It was made by an elf, so it’s a Xenos artefact. It would be heresy to even think of using it.
@@TjarkoTarnenHe served in deathwatch. For anyone, but for them, the use of xenotech is not heresy.
@@everwinter0 Fair point, the fellowship learns of the power, evil and corruption of the ring though, so it’s a bit different then a necron sword or the like.
Balrogs (don’t think I spelled that right) are minor gods like Gandalf but they don’t have too hold back which is why Gandalf defeating the balrog was so important and impressive he defeated an enemy that should have matched if not overpowered him and he just up and won anyway
Now imagine Ghazghull Mag Uruk Thraka, or another major ork Warlord; like the Beast, Urlakk Urg or Gharkul Blackfang from the Great Crusade or a Krork, in Middle Earth?

Chaplin (totally not Leandros) : dont worry brother if the Ring corrupt you I have your back with my bolter
Titus : ...😑 This again ?
Imagine the eye of sauauauauaron crying tears of fear as the space marines aproach.
Sauron can instantly kill any marine that approaches him, he is to strong.
I honestly don’t really think that anyone from any universe would/could destroy the One Ring. As much as I absolutely adore 40k and a lot of its characters I think people tend to forget that it is written by Tolkien that the ring will in fact corrupt you one way or another. Once you are in Mount Doom it’s effectively over. Frodo could not throw it in nor could Isildor because they literally aren’t capable of performing the action and that’s part of the ring’s defenses.
This is why Sauron was confident no one could destroy the One Ring, not because he thought their wills were too weak but because he knew that it actually isn’t possible for someone to bring themselves to destroy the ring. Even Sauron himself, master of the Ring, would not and could not bring himself to destroy it even if that was the only thing he wanted in all of middle earth. That’s why it’s written with Gollum in the mix. The ring wasn’t destroyed because someone threw it into the fire it was destroyed because two people desperate to keep the ring fought at the edge of the lava and the one holding the ring fell in. Frodo was even ready to jump into the flames after him just to maybe have a chance at getting the ring for a few more moments. The Ring isn’t something you can just be mentally strong enough to resist. Maybe during the journey sure but once you’re at your destination there’s not a whole lot you can do
Emperor of mankind, their “godlike” leader…… GodLIKE Leader? HERESY!
Swarlord enters.
Takes the ring for tactical advantage.
Profit
black stone box. destroy mordor through orbital bombardment. walk in with box, drop in lava. done.
Titus wouldn’t even be able to fit the damn ring around his finger 😭
I’d like to think he would keep a few rounds of ammo in his bolt pistol, you know, incase Smaug shows up or something.
Tranyz be like a fine edition to my collection ahhh yes the so called one ring to rule them all
Ring would be like F sauron if I can corrupt this guy it's gonna be a good time.
More! Longer!
Share and like the video! I tend to only come back to do sequel vids on the ones that do really well
The ring wouldn’t even fit a space marines finger.
Lol sauron was 9 feet tall and the ring fit him sooooo......
It changes size to fit the wearers Finger
Technically, the ring can change its size to fit its bearer. In the books, Isildur lost the ring because it made itself bigger so it fell off his finger.
I mean do you honestly expect a ring big enough to fit Sauron would also fit a hobbit?
Ok, hear me out… A Skaven getting the Ring.
What kind of madness would that unleash.
P.S. Please give us Megas XLR vs Orks🙏
With Skaven, it might change hands so frequently due to underhanded backstabbing that nothing of note actually changes!
I'm not sure if Tolkien ever explicitly said it, but it was definitely implied that the One Ring's corruptive influence was so strong that it was physically impossible to willfully destroy it. As in; no being in middle earth could intentionally throw it into Mount Doom any more than they could uncook an egg or stop the sun from setting.
No being in middle earth... I didn't hear shit about an Angel of Death from Holy Terra. lol
@@taliawtf6944 Gandalf and Saruman were both literal angels hand picked by gods sent to middle earth for the express purpose of defeating Sauron and even they couldn't ignore the ring's influence.
@@jamesmclemore9123Crippled lesser angels.
The word angel just means messenger, it’s why the space marines are “angels of death” because they are “messengers of death” it’s their job.
@@TjarkoTarnen
To enforce your point,
Remember Lucifer and his followers were angels.
@@mill2712 Yeah they didn't need a ring to corrupt them, just free will.
Haha...no.
The emperor himself would be instantly corrupted if he wore it. The ring absolutely LOVES people who follow tyrannical ideologies. The only people who could carry the ring to the end are those who are truly selfless and humble in stature-like a ratling!
The ring also corrupts people with ambition. Even the purest of beings such as Gandalf or Galadriel would fall to it as they had ambition to make world a better place. In harmless ways, sure, but the ring uses that ambition, corrupting it.
The only reason why Bilbo and Sam were not taken over was because they didn't have any ambitons.
Sam wanted to grow his own garden and that's it. The ring tried, but could not understand Sam's lack of said ambition.
It also took a while for the ring to get hold of Bilbo and Frodo, but even tho they had no ambition, they simply wanted to go on adventures, the ring eventually got to them.
The Emperor is falling instantly, even with all of his warp and chaos resistances.
Or a lamenter and a salamander and a crimson fist ultimate good guys team
The mighty Tau could get it done.
@@Meshifuari The ring can corrupt anyone given time. The Emperor would know the danger of the ring by looking at it and make sure to get rid of it.
@@zeehero7280 It was unable to corrupt Tom Bombadil. The ring could corrupt Emperor by him simply looking at it.
Do not forget, this man was willing to juice himself up with warp juice in order to beat Horus, before he was talked out of it.
Emperor is falling to the ring, almost instantly.
Give the ring to Garran Crowe (Grey Knight).
Tsk tsk tsk joining with knife ears titus would not
9:07 if we go by the book, they don't even fight saruman, so it would be a non issue lol
Are you saying that an astartes would stuggel against Lotr orcs and goblins, I get he would be outnumbered but they are week compared to even a normal human
Сам Хорус не смог устоять перед хаосом, а Титус вряд-ли устоит перед смлой кольца
Short answer: yes
Suggestion: Can the Doom Slayer survive the Diablo universe?
If Titus entered mordor at a dead sprint and didn't stop, nothing in order would be able to stop him. A 2000 lb dude running at like 50 mph. He wouldn't have to fight 😊
Well tbf Ogres and Drakes still seem to be somewhat of a powerhouse as far as Mordor’s forces are concerned. A few ogres would be like getting jumped by a handful of Tyranid Warriors.
@@Buster-McTunder nah the battle trolls like BRUZ would be akin to ogryn the drakes are killable with arrows. Where the breath weapon is concerned less potent then promethium but on the more generous side akin to a light napalm.the ring wraiths would be a bit of an annoyance do to titus lacking witch sight and weather or not his power sword would be equivalent to silver or if the emperor's blessings both as the god emperor and the omnissiah of the machine god carry over/stack
While yes the Ring would eventually corrupt Titus... it would take a long time and he would def be able to destroy it before then.
While Imurah tried to corrupt Titus by making him question his Devotion and Faith, Nemeroth tried to corrupt Titus through Glory and his desire to serve the Imperium... while the Ring would still get him that experience will help resist it.
Though if this was a Custodes... heh... not a crack... The Ring would have an easier time with Sam that with those Automatons.
Cant the urakai not just shoot his head with a bunch of arrows? I mean tidus isn't exactly known for wearing his Helmet
Bro they could just kill the entire planet with 1 spaceship.
Burning a planet is a normal occurrence, some people do it for fun.
I doubt that the ring would even fit on their fingers.
Watch the first 7 minutes of Fellowship
For Middle Terra!
What about Warhammer fantasy?
The ring can’t fit on his fingers he’s fine
Titus in middle earth would be corrupted because the point of the story is that soldiers can't solve every problem. The ring in the 40k Galaxy would not corrupt Titus because the point of the story is that the Ultramarines have Ultra in their name and win. What I'm saying is that the ring would have home field advantage
Caedo 40ks doom guy
I don't think Titus could make it. He could destroy the rimg if he didn't use it, but if he didn't use it to get through Mordor, he'd be overwhelmed and killed. Damned if he does, damned if he doesn't.
A lot of people here are saying that the Emperor would be corrupted by it, which is probably true, but could a custodian do the feat? They feel nothing but devotion and loyalty to their emperor, and they could destroy the ring, so long as the emperor never wears it.
Devotion to the Emperor and to serve by his will is an ambition, and as such, would fall only in time to the draw of the ring.
Also Custodes are a lot more individualistic than even the Astartes, they are very personal and unique in their beliefs.
@@Buster-McTunder but if the emperor told them to destroy it, they would want to destroy it and nothing more. I just think that loyalty to the emperor takes power over the ring’s corruption. Now, if they just happened to find the ring, they might want to use it, but if it was the emperor’s will to destroy, I don’t think they would be corrupted.
Of course, I could be wrong.
In what way could it corrupt the emperor more then he is already corrupt would be my question? Haha
He is already the dictator of the entire galaxy, thousands of souls sacrificed to keep him alive every day. Untold horrible things he did to unit humanity under his power. He makes Sauron look pathetic with the power and influence he has, what use would the ring be to him?
Talion would technically win due to being unable to truly die if we are using prime Talion
Can’t he die if he was to loose his ring?
@@TjarkoTarnen I mean yeah but you can’t just take it off of him. Celebrimbor has to manually separate from him or he has to willingly give it up.
@@jakethejapan1029 Interesting. But he'd still die when the ring gets destroyed in the mountain anyway.
@@TjarkoTarnen I believe Talion was fighting for hundred/thousands of years before the LOTR trilogy takes place
@@jakethejapan1029 Yes, but he dies with the other Nazgul when Mount Doom erupts. Since the hypothetical story takes place during LOTR he would be a Nazgul and would be defeated and released with the others.

Dune is basically the dark age of technology in the warhammer 40k universe, it borrows from Dune quite a bit
war!
Shadow of War is not canon...
4:10 you dont even need to use the ring if you going of the movies look at the flashback whe smeagol first gets the ring
Grey Knights, easily. Especially Garron Crow. Mission only.
No. Space marine will not bring the one ring to mt doom. Space marines often fall to chaos corrupted. Due to ambition. And ambition is something ring exploits that's why hobbits were entrusted the ring , coz they had no ambition. Gandalf who basically an angel didn't want to even touch the ring for he feared that ring would corrupt him to be even worse than saruman
I mean ultramarines have fought off corruption for 10k years. If they could fight off temptations beings far greater than anything in lotr, they could probably resist the ring. But that's just a game theory
@@silkyjohnson4208 humans are easly tempted in lotr and titus despite his ascention is still a human

also here's my usual FFXIV comment
Titus completes the journey before the ring can cause problems
Nah. Tyranids have both numbers and bio engineered, monomolecular weapons capable of actually damaging power armour. Lotr orcs have essentially clubs bashing against a literal ton of a walking tank. Walking through the front door of mordoor would just be a walk through a park. And thats for an ultramarine.
Salamander sees the dragons of lotr and would just go “cute. Its like a pet baby dragon version of the dragons back home i have to deal with…. Without my weapon and armour….
Heaven help them if a librarian, grey knight, raven guard or white scar(or any brother chapter of the last two) get dropped in.
Hell the raven guard would just look at the massive giant, inteligent eagles and just go “i’ve found one of my people” before lassoing that b and treating it like a new mount to replace the ravens they use as familiars
The 40k fellating is real. Where the fuck did you get the nids having monomolecular bio weapons? The exaggeration you have of the fauna in nocturne is insane amd where the hell did you get the raven guards having ravens as their familiars?
@@kinoman4875 literally every 40k novel ever is in the room right next to me.
Raven guard tech priest and librarians will turn ravens into either servitors for the tech priests or just familiars for the librarians because the ravens on their home world are hyper intelligent to the point where they can set traps capable of killing full astartes.
The salamanders are indeed massive to the point where the truly ancient ones that sleep near the planets core had even Vulcan terrified of what would happen if they ever wake up.
And how do you think gene stealer or gaunt talons can pierce power and terminator armour?
@@micheal5973 the gaunts do not have monomolecular claws, the ability for the genestealers to shred through terminator armour does not = monomolecular claws. Tyranids At best have force weapons and only warriors and above are capable of wielding those. where the fuck did you get gaunts piercing terminator armour?!?! And can you please give me excerpts for your claim on raven guard using familiars and when salamanders go through their trials the salamanders they usually have to deal with are not going to be those high end ones. The gigantic ones existing doesn’t mean the astartes actually actuvely messes with them. Your regular space marines regularly dies to shit like frag grenades and fall to temptation can we stop acting like one can just dogwalk through certain settings?
@@kinoman4875
Sharpened Claws - These claws are of extreme length and have been sharpened to a monomolecular edge. They are further enhanced by the presence of crackling psychic energies which run down their length.
From the wiki which just copy pastes from one of the codex. And ya is gw who can’t get their shit together when describing stuff between books and every other weapon describes it as “extreme” or razor sharp but doesn’t make sense if you can make a basic talon mono molecular why you wouldn’t do it for everything when there’s no other resource cost to it
And no I don’t really feel like digging through every raven guard book looking for the one that describes in detail the challenges a librarian or chaplain have to go through and also has a tech marine with a pet cyber raven.
why do u say "ladies and animals" (?)
Because- I can?
@@Buster-McTunder fair enough, one does as one does i guess. gud video keep it up this channels great 👍
One space marine isn’t enough to destroy the one ring. You need a Custodes, mainly because of their incorruptibility to the influence of the ring. Otherwise maybe a grey knight, but I’m not sure. Another problem is the witch king of Angmar, who is even more powerful that the balrog and on top of that is bounded by fate to be killed only at the hands of a woman. You know what the perfect candidate to do the job is a sister of silence now that I think about it. Just to be clear I’m talking about the movies not the books. Even the Nazgûl can blow up mountains in the books so you will need Sanguinus or Vulcan to do the job (just don’t show any elves to Vulcan please).
In a sense, a Balrog is a Bloodthirster. Back in the day- before 40k, before Warhammer proper- Citadel Miniatures had a license to produce LOTR figures, including a Balrog or three. Fast forward a little, Warhammer was invented, with the idea of being able to use any and every available Citadel mini, including the Balrog. When Citadel lost the license, the Balrog was renamed, then dropped altogether- and the Bloodthirster was it's direct replacement, same stats and all.
And of course, Titus wouldn't stop at Sauron and the orcs- the elves are clearly Xenos, and Gandalf a psyker or warp being; untrusted allies of moment, to be purged later. Hobbits, dwarves and numenoreans would be seen as mutants, and even individual human lives are held in little regard. Given time and a few squad-mates, Middle-Earth would be left a blasted industrial wasteland, it's humans forced to toil for the glory of the Emperor.
More like can anyone stop them?
Just shoot the ring with a plasma gun. That's far far hotter than any place in Middle Earth has even been. Heck, even a melta would likely do the job.
Considering there are beings like Sauron who scale the destruction of a plasma gun by millions of times, I doubt it would do anything.
@@voidtempering8700 The ring was destroyed by throwing it into the lava in Mount Doom. A plasma gun would tear the lava apart into it's constituent elements.
And if Sauron was that powerful, why did he even need to forge the one ring there? And how on earth would a being that powerful be able to be defeated by a mortal and have the ring cut from his hand?
Do you know how powerful a plasma pistol is in 40k? It cuts through sci-fi tank armour like it's butter. It would tear the matter the one ring was made of apart at the atomic level and every single electron would rip away from the atoms.
One thing I do find funny though, is that if a single 40k ork were to appear on Middle Earth, within a century or two all the other races and beings would be dead. Humans, dwarves, elves, dragons, balrogs, giants, sorcerers, all slaughtered.
@SarthorS it's not about the temperature. Mt doom was were the ring was made, so it's the only place it can be unmade.
@@SarthorS The Balrogs and Sauron scale to beings that can easily shatter mountains and sink islands. Not to mention there are beings that can create and destroy universes, who Sauron scales to.
@@voidtempering8700 Sauron and the Balrogs were Maiar, like Gandalf and Saruman. Basically angels. Sauron was the most powerful, but still a lesser being. He was a servant of the Valar Morgoth, essentially a god. I have heard nothing to suggest that even Morgoth could destroy the universe. He most certainly could not create them, or anything for that matter. Only Iluvatar, the creator god held the power of creation. Morgoth and Sauron could not create as much as a speck of dirt. Sauron was also first defeated by a human with a sword, and Gandalf defeated a Balrog.
