Oh yeah would be amazing. Maybe a shooter, where there is a huge campaign that you play as a thunder warrior and later custodes and then a multiplayer where you can play any faction in the conflict. Would be 😻
I love how one of the main regions on Terra was Albia, an UK basically, suggesting their culture and a form of government survived this long, while IRL ... well, we all see what's going on
The UK has spread their culture across the globe. USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and many other former collonies. Seems like it's going quite well, too well some might say.

I'm only a books/novel W40K person. Now that the Heresy has been completed, high time for a novel saga detailing both the fall of earth and then the rise of the Emperor. PLEASE! Excellent content here as always, II. Thank you.
@@jmontoya4689 Hey, if you're asking me, I would go with the safe and great answer of the entire Horus Heresy saga. Over 50 novels, dozens of short stories and other related works. I say this because the entire series is now complete and can be read in chronological order. It also encompasses both the very height of the Imperium of Man with the Emporer's Crusade, participation of all 18 known primarchs and of course covers the tragic betrayal and civil war of the Heresy itself. So many great books there and IMO incredibly satisfying. Cheers
There almost nothing to say every game you play isn’t just a warhammer game where you’re a cut off regressed planet even magic makes sense as does technology
Those techno barbarians must of been so powerful if not even the emperor of mankind could defeat them and seeked diplomatic solutions. I wonder what warp entity the priest worshipped. Was it a chaos God? During the unification wars where there any tribes/groups that worshipped the chaos gods
You'd get that, you'd also get culturally specific deific Archetypes hyper charged by the self belief of the humans. Roughly what the Eldar do, & kinda what the Emperor has as his foundation from all the Shamans, but well, they didn't have his longevity I think. Someone put Caine in 40k at some point as well, but that was pretty weaksauce.
@TOUGHEYES I have always been under the impression that those Archetype thingies were always just the Chaos Gods. Like all Religion sooner or later always ended up somehow being the Four. I remember a fertility god that was actually just Khorne being worshipped as an example.
@@MaticustheRedu mean nurgle. How tf would Khorne be fertility? Nurgle is the cycle of life and rebirth but to a perverse degree on each end of the spectrum
It has been said in academia that even at sub-light speeds it would take a million years to colonises the entire milky way that is rather quick in the immense span of time that has passed so far and what has passed is minuscule to the entirety of time that remains to be lost
Perfect! Was just reading about the Techno Barbarian leaders. Wish there was more on them. Also wish there was an audio drama of someone who fins themself in Nurgle's mansion. Just needed to put that out there.
Nah. There is so many turn based and strategy 40k games. We need a first person narrative game like the Witcher. Imagine it starts with you as a Primarch, crash landing on your new home. You achieve things following the lore until the Emperor arrives for you. The next game would have you at the head of your own legion. Each chapter has its own series of games until they all culminate with the Horus Hersesy trilogy.
Nightlords, iron hands, an deathguard, were Albion legions is a suprise. I was thinking Iron warriors, imperial fist, dark angels. Would be a good idea for a vid about what legions came from what areas *hint hint*
Unifications Wars: Basically Pendulum Wars and also Age of Armageddon from Gears of War, all the Post-WW3 Reconstruction Eras of Humanity from Fallout, and ironically all Post-Fall of Rome and Medieval Dark Ages to Renaissance/Enlightenment Recovery Periods from actual history, blended together and injected with fucking steroids!
37:27- I love almost all of these pictures! I would rather be able to see the whole picture in 1 frame! Or at least leave a link for use to find the pictures, the creator/creators and more!!! But I also wonder if those pictures actually go with what you’re talking about?!? Because I didn’t think the Salamanders looked like that before the Horus Heresy!?!
Pretty sure the emperor is, based on lore, one of the original Eldar, who built a quantum computer and put a random skeleton on it, after ditching the human race to go party with nurgle and blow up immortal orks in the eye of terror. Its in the lore man
Just as an aside, I really like the youtube title image for this video. The one with the warrior in yellow with the shoulder pads? Does anyone know where the art source comes from?
How did you get all the way to Scandinavia already who started his conquest out and down Himalayas that means that he made to go through a bunch of know Barbara and territory that he didn't conquest yet
@@jrr7031 ok,thanks for answer. I got another one ive been wondering about. Whats up with nuclear weapons,cause the imperium doesnt use them,right? Why dont they?
@user-yu5pr3xe6o lmfao! Regarding nukes. The irony is, in the Grim dark....even the Imperium has lines it won't cross often. Nukes being one of them. Phosphex the other. The Mechanicus uses Rad weapons, and grenades though...think guns that shoot ionizing radiation. The wholesale use of just dropping atomic weapons though, not so much.
The same as Tau with their warp skimming at first then they got Navigators to steer their ships in the true Warp. No lore gave the origin of the Navigators. It seems Humanity did have their version of Astronomicon.
This is about the unification of terra ..and yet still tartaros terminator armour and primaris marines are shown ...insidiously working their way in ...next week should do a vid on primaris marines and the current state of the 42 millennium ... Make no mention to the unification wars ...but throw in some pics of thunder warriors for consistency....your next one can talk about damnation of pythos ...and you can include my little pony in it ...for consistency
So wait the initial empire was a traditional empire . Then slannesh is born and the emperor creates the imperium after ? Is that correct confusion early chapters
The Emperor was well intentioned and necessary. If he had not struck out precisely when he did as the warp storms subsided a foul Xenos species or Chaos itself would surely have found and eradicated Holy Terra. Had he not been so ruthless and merciless it would have been a sign of weakness. Yes, you can critique his methods, but should consider the alternative when casting judgment.
You see that? Imma be a Techno Barbarian... Got my tiktok dance and everything ...Lord Humungus pronoun coming -probably means i should start working out now right?
Ok this isn’t heresy and I’m no Robute Stan I’m just saying in the time it took the emperor to unify terra Robute had a 500 hundred world stellar empire, Dorn had the same thing to a lesser extent pretty much all of his sons had managed to unify their home worlds by the time they reached adulthood even that psycho Kurze managed it hell even lorgar managed it and the big E had the cheek to complain about logars slow progress lol sorry dad but you took over 200 years to conquer one planet even with your golden banana boys you under achieving whiner lol
I honestly believe that the emperor was no more than a weapon. Much like the rest of the perpetuals. He and the other perpetuals purposely destroyed all hope for advancement, peace or any form of true enlightenment. With all the crap about him being a master strategist, every decision I've seen him make in the lore has seemed designed to fail. Example: not bothering to warn his Primarchs about chaos... Especially since big E probably tried to dupe the chaos gods in some way. Just saying.
I guess you just are going to act like the war with the men of iron never happened huh. Tell me you don’t know much about 40k without telling me you are just trying to make them views the war with the men of iron was just as bad as the birth of the shittiest chaos god.

Good work Iterator, now... the Inquisition wants a word.
I wish games workshop released a Unification wars game.
Oh yeah would be amazing. Maybe a shooter, where there is a huge campaign that you play as a thunder warrior and later custodes and then a multiplayer where you can play any faction in the conflict. Would be 😻
i wish they released ANY good game with the WarHammer name (Total War excluded)
@tgreaux5027 I wish they would do a 40K Type of total war.
Wouldn't that just be a Warhammer themed RISK?
I have a dream of a digital version of the tabletop, turn based or RTS, but GW loves that sweet model money, it's the original micro transaction.
I love how one of the main regions on Terra was Albia, an UK basically, suggesting their culture and a form of government survived this long, while IRL ... well, we all see what's going on

ahriman twins sure shine in the unification war
I love the emperor
As any good and loyal citizen of the Empire does.....or else.
Only love? Sounds like heresy.
@@nekiyia HERESY!
This channel is an Abominal Intelligence
its voiced by one certainly, it would be rather fascinating and somewhat scary if it's written by one too
Great video excellent quality
This franchise needs a Starcraft 2 type RTS game with a bunch of factions and legions...it would be glorious. It would make ALL the monies.
Star craft was going to be a 40k game but somebody effed up, Dawn of War: Dark crusade was a good/great 40k rts.
dawn of war ...
They did exactly this and called it StarCraft
