"Sir we have spotted space marines in all black in the distance" "Ah yes the raven guard. Double the guards and reduce the distance between patrols. They will strike when we least expect it" "Sir they are adorned with red x's and teardrops" "We had a good run lads"
it’s worse when immediately after, they just hear the maniacal screaming of all the marines who think they are fighting Horus. Gotta love the death company
“Sir, they got cogs and gauntlets painted in white on em.” “Ah. You…. Uh… wouldn’t happen to have a Geiger counter handy, would you?” Edit: honestly that’s just iron hands and any destroyer squad. The crazy fuckers that the rest of the legion is like “yeah, they’d probably be breaking a lot of conventions… if it weren’t for the fact that their targets… USUALLY aren’t human…”
2:02 is easily one of the most bone-chilling pieces of art ever created. The black background suggests that this thing just crept up to her. The finger to the mouth calling for silence is truly one of the scariest examples of "less is more"
More terrible yet, that thing is a Emperor's Children Chaos Marine, that mutation on its face is somewhat common. A really sad fate that legion had, it fell from amazing heights to absolute hell.
That is an Emperors Children Chaos Space Marine. Falling to Slaanesh means they thrive on inflicting pain in their pursuit of perfection, and that death is prefered before the hedonism begins
Every picture, official or fan made is amazing and so badass. It makes you feel obliged to pause and take in every picture and just appreciate it all. The 40K universe and lore is so deep and so massive that artist have such rich material to work with and they created such emotions and awe with these arts. I mean just that photo of salamanders saving kids or the one with the girl holding a severed space marine head with another chaos bolter near her head is just so grim dark and truly horrific....
I love all the different pictures of The Emperor all showing him looking vastly different. Young to old, wise and stoic to raging warrior. It captures the feel of his warp powers twisting and changing how he presents himself and how people perceive him in reality itself. Every person who has seen The Emperor has met a different man.
I think the weirdest thing is that no matter what he showed the rest of the world we was just a puny human creating and wielding immense power but a human nonetheless and the idea of the burden he has taken especially on the golden throne is crazy to me
@@fabienherry6690 He wasn't "just a human". That would be Malcador the Sigillite. An extremely powerful psyker but still a regular human otherwise. The Emperor is something else entirely.
@@LordVader1094 But he IS a regular human he isn't a transhuman the only thing that is different is his mind . Like when a powerfull sister of silence was introduced to the throneroom that all she could see
@@paul7432 You need to stop reading munistorum pamphlet the emperor creation was most of the human shaman and magician and sage suiciding at the same time so they could reincarnate in a single being to fight against the emerging chaos treat. His psykic might would be fueling his body and the fact that he had thousand of mind worth of brain power would make it the most "intelligent" man but he would still be a man. That also why he can do stupid shit like not telling his sons about the chaos or how he treated Magnus ! Or even how despite knowing of the threat of chaos he went afk when there was still a crusade going on When he defeated horus he didn't defeated him in single combat he crushed him with his psykic might
And that last picture is one theoretical end for the story (which will, of course, never end): A lone guardsman facing impossible odds, not knowing that he's the last living human in the universe.
Did they correctly cite the Tanith First and Only as the ones who were the Guard's embodiment of such? It sounds like the Steel Legion paraphrased that quote, they just removed fething from it. If so, their descendants could sue the Steel Legion in it's entirety for plagiarism.
A man stands alone, surrounded by the bodies of the damned, ammunitions have been expended as readily as human life. The enemy, an unending horde still marches towards him at this very moment, and in the chaos a strange quiet settles. 'Is this where I will finally be embraced by my God?' he wonders, a cackling demonic beast approaches him in his last moments, he can only draw the strength to tilt his head upwards and listen. Nothing Else... "Your God, 'The Rotting Corpse upon his Golden Throne' he has abandoned you, join me and you'll feel pleasure as you've never imagined". The Cadian smiles, a corpse smile, the twisted broken facsimile of what a smile should be, drawing the last of his breath he drops the Hot shot las pack he had been holding onto. The horror on the rotten creatures face and the words of soldier were the last things to be seen before the blast. He spoke through blood soaked lips. "For, The Emperor". Boom.
Think about what the video represents though. Its not the heroic struggle of the Guard and their desperate fight against nameless horrors. Its more of an idealized vision of the unattainable perfection and power that The Emperor and his Primarchs represent for all mankind. They may not have the numbers to fight in every conflict across every system, but they do something almost more important. They give the Guard the hope that there are powers out there that are as terrible as any monsters from the warp they may face, that are on their side. The Emperor and his Angels are the spirit of the Imperium. They are the great heroes that the Guardsman remembers as he charges to certain death. Before he meets his doom for his race, his people, his home, it is not fear or the void, or the horror of the monsters he must face, but the holy light of The Emperor that remains constant in his mind, driving him beyond mortal limits.

The war against the ruinous powers cannot be won decisively, it is a long campaign against an enemy who never tires, whose forces swell to twice their size whenever you relent for but a second.

I think the only "bad" part of this video is Krekkov's art at 3:59, but not because the art itself is bad, but just from how it goes from paintings to a black and white sketch, put me in for a bit of tonal wiplash haha. Granted the piece fits nicely with the message, a lone woman crying as the angles of mankind are dead, and her next.
perfect i like how you arranged this to be the perfect visualization of the history of 40k starting with the old ones and necrontir and then seeing events the war in heaven and the rise of man and horus heresy. also where tau
You can see a few fire warriors being slaughtered at 5:05. Truth be told the t'au are fairly insignificant in the story being told in this video, they're just too "new" in a historical sense, and, from the imperial perspective, not really all that important.
The Tau had as much impact in this video as they have made on the Greater 40k galaxy… …Which is to say they had like a whole collective 6 seconds of screen time.
@@justsomeogrewithinternetac1494 I mean humanity had at least 20.000 years in the sun. Compared to the Tau which had 5.000. I’m not hating on the Tau, I’m a huge Greater Good fan, and I think them being so relatively new adds to their badassery.
@@comradeconnolly4538 no that's fair. I love tau its just that like, in terms of impact and age, eldar and necrons are around three thousand two hundred fifty times older. 60 million years is a way, WAY longer period of time

Even with humanity surrounded on all side and slowly being pulled apart humanity still fights, humanity has survived for 10,000 years through the destruction wrought upon it and sure it has it's toll but by the emperor humanity will still fight
That last image with Dante and Guilliman speaks volumes of the depth of grim dark in 40k and the imperium considering its Dante's greatest wish to just die already.
This is really an amazing video man. If I had to describe Warhammer 40k... what it is all about, what we love about it... to someone... this is the video I would send them.
3:20 i just noticed the image after the khronate berserker at that time stamp are the silicon lifeforms from the scifi manga Blame! odd thing, easy to blink and miss it when almost everything is a 40k image. However, they really do LOOK like something from 40k, so its an easy mistake i think.
Even when we are at our lowest, hope, but most importantly: faith, is what drives us forward and makes us strong to fight once more. Even in its darkest hours, mankind will triumph over Chaos and the terrors the galaxy shall unleahs upon us
2:53 is amazing. It exemplifies Krieg in a perfect way. The marching faceless men, whose life is to live and die for the emperor and the little child, looking up in admiration, mimicking their movements, he can't wait to give his life away for a man, a god he's never met and never will. Sad af, badass af. Warhammer 40k, one of the best Sci Fi universes ever created.
God, nothing instills more pride for the human race than seeing the the Emperor of Mankind at his prime, a human, filled to the brim with the indomitable human spirit...FOR THE EMPEROR!
2:53 This is cute and horrible. The cute part, is that Kriegs don't actually pay much attention to the kid who wants to be just like them and who is marching right beside them. The horrible part is that he wants and will become one. What an amazing yet terrifying universe the Warhammer 40k is
3:12 litteraly my dude just told the whole story of 40k from the war in heaven, rise and fall of the eldar, the great Crusade, Horus heresy, my dude even got the sabbat wars in there Gulliman's returning and dante being tired, and a whole lot more, All with half the song to go.

@@americanman8251 that doesn’t even really fit the GW Emperor which I guess makes it even worse. That conversation he had with Vulkan shows his empathy and compassion albeit somewhat coldly, but he wouldn’t have considered them tools. Weird
Idk why but at 3:20 it's art by the mangaka of Blame! The characters are Schiff, Davine Lu Linvega, Pcell and Blon. For those who are interested.
O trabalho que dá para separar as imagens e colocar no tempo certo é enorme galera, valorizem, são imagens pra cacete!! (Português)
The work that goes into separating the images and placing them at the right time is huge guys, appreciate it, there are many images, and beautiful images. (English)
E realmente deve ter sido um trabalho ter que editar
É ótimo ver que tem brasileiro que apreciam warhammer
Fino senhores 🗿🍷
@@brunobonifaciodellabeta7928 De fato há, um ex-amigo meu que passou a uns anos atrás a apreciar jogos de tabuleiro e coisas do tipo fez até um RPG de terror e reuniu uma galera pra jogar, não pense que é tão raro brasileiro assim, contudo, eu vivo um estilo de vida de eruditismo mais utilitário, e gosto de viver assim, por mais esquisito que seja, enfim nunca vou conhecer o Warhammer, no meu dia a dia não jogo e nem assisto mais nada, exceto vídeo-aulas, política, exercícios, e vez por outra uma música pra impulsionar, é possível se há Um objetivo sólido.
Awesome. I also really loved the last image of Papa Smurf and Dante, gave a bit of hope to this bleak universe
That's Grandpa Smurf. Calgar is Papa Smurf.
Chills...Just from watching what is effectively a slide show im getting chills.
"Oi, humies! I'z got a question for ya: if da Emprah is such a zoggin good warboss, why isn't he krumpin 'eads with ya?"
Если быть честным, то я уже на 3-й минуте расплакался. Бес шуток, у меня слезы из глас потекли. Прям за душу задел.
Так держать парень (или девушка), продолжай в том же духе. Могу сказать только одно тебе (вам).
"Ut Imperator benedicat tibi!"
How ever dark, bleak and grim this world might be it has a little good left in it.
And that good is worth fighting for
It's why the Guard keeps on fighting. Every Warrior, Destroyer, CSM and Mandrake felled is that many fewer people lost later.
WH40k is the best sci-fi universe for the sheer genius of mixing space opera with magic with demons and angels against the backdrop of an interstellar war for survival on 1000 different fronts.
It has Cyberpunk, Clockpunk, Conan, Steampunk and literally every style and genre represented somewhere in it's boundaries.
Thank you brother HvemSkall. The legacy of Emperor will not be forgotten !
@piro3002 Brother, I am saddened by your words probably due to a xenos influence, however I believe in a second chance so that the light of the emperor shows you the truth, the emperor protects!
@piro3002 So if you insist, we will see you in a battlefield the traitor and I hope that you will be my size to face me! With the faith of the god emperor, nothing can stop us!
There May Not Be A Heaven, But We'll Go Down Fighting Hell.
There are images that I had never seen, incredible work. May the emperor of reward brother!
I must say... This is definitely better than before!
That one kid with the grenade...
For the Emperor
That's anyone who finds 40k before puberty
I think the only "bad" part of this video is Krekkov's art at 3:59, but not because the art itself is bad, but just from how it goes from paintings to a black and white sketch, put me in for a bit of tonal wiplash haha.
Granted the piece fits nicely with the message, a lone woman crying as the angles of mankind are dead, and her next.
I'm pretty sure people stopped for the naked woman being thrown into the fire.
@@death153278 Nah
perfect i like how you arranged this to be the perfect visualization of the history of 40k starting with the old ones and necrontir and then seeing events the war in heaven and the rise of man and horus heresy.
also where tau
You can see a few fire warriors being slaughtered at 5:05. Truth be told the t'au are fairly insignificant in the story being told in this video, they're just too "new" in a historical sense, and, from the imperial perspective, not really all that important.
4:02 bro snuck that in there
🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫 keep quiet UA-cam don’t know
These artworks remind me why I fell in love with Warhammer 40K
The Tau had as much impact in this video as they have made on the Greater 40k galaxy…
…Which is to say they had like a whole collective 6 seconds of screen time.
In that case it should basically just be only eldar and necrons lol
@@justsomeogrewithinternetac1494 I mean humanity had at least 20.000 years in the sun. Compared to the Tau which had 5.000. I’m not hating on the Tau, I’m a huge Greater Good fan, and I think them being so relatively new adds to their badassery.
@@comradeconnolly4538 no that's fair. I love tau its just that like, in terms of impact and age, eldar and necrons are around three thousand two hundred fifty times older. 60 million years is a way, WAY longer period of time
@@justsomeogrewithinternetac1494 That’s the point I was making dude.
ah sorry. No, I was just saying that from a pure time perspective that 60 million years is longer than thousands.
Thank you for continuing this project of yours. These videos really get across the "feeling" of 40k. Much
Gosh please keep making this videos. I've started to read about universe after listening and watching this badass arts. Love to see so much of them in a short time and there is no better song than little dark age for that.
Every picture, official or fan made is amazing and so badass. It makes you feel obliged to pause and take in every picture and just appreciate it all. The 40K universe and lore is so deep and so massive that artist have such rich material to work with and they created such emotions and awe with these arts. I mean just that photo of salamanders saving kids or the one with the girl holding a severed space marine head with another chaos bolter near her head is just so grim dark and truly horrific.
After the recent shitshow with gw and Amazon it's better to remember the good days and refusing to bend the knee
Better die standing than live kneeling, for the game workshop broke before the fans did.
Seeing lots of chaos and heresy then the chorus hits and i'm embraced by the shining light of the god emperor
‘I already was,’ said Loken, turning his back on Horus. ‘It was called the Great Crusade.'
Even with humanity surrounded on all side and slowly being pulled apart humanity still fights, humanity has survived for 10,000 years through the destruction wrought upon it and sure it has it's toll but by the emperor humanity will still fight
Its amazing, for how great it mashes terror with hope giving you ups and downs that hit hard!
I have never seen much of the art in this, really good
This made me inmmune to Chaos
The only little dark age with any right to exist. All the other ones failed to pave this way.
I love everything regarding the Necrontyr in art, it makes sense, that we don't know much about that time but i would love to see more about it.
That last image with Dante and Guilliman speaks volumes of the depth of grim dark in 40k and the imperium considering its Dante's greatest wish to just die already.
Conozco WH40K desde hace 2 años y este video me da Nostalgia.
is there physical copies of these picturres because i would totally buy these!
This is really an amazing video man. If I had to describe Warhammer 40k... what it is all about, what we love about it... to someone... this is the video I would send them.
3:49 goes so fucking hard
3:20
i just noticed the image after the khronate berserker at that time stamp are the silicon lifeforms from the scifi manga Blame! odd thing, easy to blink and miss it when almost everything is a 40k image.
However, they really do LOOK like something from 40k, so its an easy mistake i think.
3:20 Now I really want WH40K anime in full Tsutomu Nihei's BLAME! style.
BROTHERS!!!! WE HAVE XENOS TO PURGE!!!!!!
Damn, 40k art goes hard
Even when we are at our lowest, hope, but most importantly: faith, is what drives us forward and makes us strong to fight once more. Even in its darkest hours, mankind will triumph over Chaos and the terrors the galaxy shall unleahs upon us
Warhammer 40 K единственная всиленная где по одним только картинкам с музыкой можно сделать неплохой эдит
4:34 who is the author of this artwork?
02:02 just so majestic and teatrical, give me the chills
I will forever associate this song with 40k.
2:53 is amazing.
It exemplifies Krieg in a perfect way. The marching faceless men, whose life is to live and die for the emperor and the little child, looking up in admiration, mimicking their movements, he can't wait to give his life away for a man, a god he's never met and never will. Sad af, badass af.
Warhammer 40k, one of the best Sci Fi universes ever created.
God, nothing instills more pride for the human race than seeing the the Emperor of Mankind at his prime, a human, filled to the brim with the indomitable human spirit...FOR THE EMPEROR!
Two unskipable commercials, what a disgrace youtube. Dont buy any products of the commercials they force on US
you found so many great artworks that I've never even seen before, great work
Every man in the world sees this and goes: "Hell yeah"
"The engine has failed again, call the tech priest."
Need one for fantasy now and if the quality is the same as this it'll be masterpiece
2:53 This is cute and horrible. The cute part, is that Kriegs don't actually pay much attention to the kid who wants to be just like them and who is marching right beside them. The horrible part is that he wants and will become one. What an amazing yet terrifying universe the Warhammer 40k is
2:22 that's something I haven't seen. Genstealers vs. Nightlords.
I hate youtube for not letting me post the video with the same song
You can understand how fucked this galaxy just by art where even kid (proabably cadian) going to suicide attack 3:59 for the Emperor
As long as one (hu)man protects their home, humanity will never be lost.
Boy, am I glad you kept the Horus transition. Cheers, mate
There is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting gods.
3:12 litteraly my dude just told the whole story of 40k from the war in heaven, rise and fall of the eldar, the great Crusade, Horus heresy, my dude even got the sabbat wars in there Gulliman's returning and dante being tired, and a whole lot more, All with half the song to go.
