I've always had a special place in my grim dark heart for the Iron Hands. I think part of it is because I always felt that Ferrus Manus is a lot more badass and awesome than people give him credit for. I just wish GW would give us more quality Iron Hands stories with more impact on the setting.
Hope once the Heresy is over besides the Scouring they also start fleshing out other ages including the Unification Wars and more of the Great Crusade that should give the Iron Hands and Ferrus Manus plenty of chances to show why they were so well-regarded.
One of my favourite Deathwatch games (the roleplay not the tactical version) involved the interplay between my Salamander and the Iron Hand member of the group..... We came close to killing each other many times off the battlefield, but my Salamander knew that on the battlefield the Iron Hand would have his back, and vice versa..... There were many an occasion when I would get back onto the dropship and the rest of the squad would look at my Salamander, and the gaggle of terrified refugee's, sigh, and mutter about Ddraig collecting more strays.... Sue me, I am Welsh, of COURSE I am going to name my Salamander character Ddraig (Dragon)!
Warhammer has some of the most well thought out story lines which keep on developing even after 40 years. "There's a guy named Ferrus Manus which means Iron Hands. He has Iron hands and leads a Legion called the Iron Hands. There's also Leman Russ! His whole thing is he's like a wolf." - Also Warhammer 40k
Your Warhammer 40k audiobooks are a true gem in the 40k community. The passion and skill you bring to your narrations are a joy to experience, thank you for the fantastic work and for enriching the 40k universe for us all.
Imagine being so braindead as to tell to the Catachan (as you're fleeing like a coward instead of doing your job of protecting the Imperium) that they aren't strong enough when all your muscles come from a test tube, or to the Raven Guard that their intel is useless. If Ferrus returned, he'd make Perturabo's meeting with his legion during the Great Crusade seem like a wholesome family moment. And the Imperium wouldn't lose anything of value.
Another great video!! Thank you!! I owe so much of my knowledge of this universe to you and your gifted voices lore videos and stories!! I’ve only been introduced to the warhammer universe in the past year or so, and have greedily soaked up all available information and entertainment that is available to me, your channel being the bulk of this new info!! Thank you again!! You’re performing the Emporer’s good works! proud supporter!!
Are there any ogryn stories that are worth reading/listening to? The few short stories I have listen to kinda sound like a documentary on abused kindergarteners with disabilities. ‘This ogryn was good at following orders and that made him happy’ ‘The ogryn peels potatoes and that makes him happy’ ‘the ogryn doesn’t like the dark because that’s when nightmares come, that makes him angry’
Riding from Bretonnia to the 41st Millennium, A Border Prince strikes again. What an awesome lore video. I don't know how many get your Warhammer Fantasy inspired name lol.
4 months later, i have read the Eye of Medusa and the Voice of Mars. These are not only my first 40k books, but my first books in years. I liked them both despite the obviously flaws, and was actually saddened that Strono's story ended there without further continuation in novel form. I really identify with the Iron Hands. That cold, controlled logic with, characterized by Rauth and Stronos, a rage buried underneath is just me. It made me realize this within myself as my own core weakness. I love them as a Chapter, and i need more of them.
I like listening to these during my drives in the countryside to different repair jobs, I particularly enjoyed this one. Great job! and thank you I appreciate what you do... its not like I could read and drive at the same time LOL!
If you take the Iron Hands fandom and relate it to the lack of Lore, then equalize it to that metric with other Legions, the Iron Hands would be 40k's most popular Legion.
You came through Brother. You said there would be more more has come. May the Four Armed Star God bless you ( I sneeze on you, now you are Xenos ) MUHAHAhahahaha…… cough… wait it’s too soon…. Argh YOU PROMISED…..i die in a splat on the floor my last whisper “ AborderPRINCE its up to you now”🫡
A new subscriber here, thank you for your work, i listen to it while i play dawn of war, battlefleet gothic, inquistitor martyr and chaos gate..... For the emperor!
Love your channel! A couple years ago I was hospitalized with some mysterious pneumonia ick for a month but your book narrations and lore helped get me through it, I forgot to come to the comments and thank you for it (that or I don't remember because of the medications they had me on at the time😅) but I wanna do it now❤
39:44, 1:18:21, Their remnants of their humanity were indeed their undoing, seeking vengeance, rather than calculating against the nearing threat of the Orkz Armies.
Something just occurred to me. Ferrus Mannus was from Medusa. Ferrus Mannus had his head cut off. In Greek mythology, Medusa had her head cut off! Lucky he didn't land on the planet called John Wayne Bobbit; he'd have been called Ferrus Pennus and Fulgrim would have cut his other head off!?! I do apologize, but also, it's not fair I suffer these thoughts alone!! >XD
\|/ Hells, yeah! 😅 Of course you're still making that sweet, sweet 40K content, my man... 😅 Like no other! ❤ Ya just gotta dig it, ya know! 😂 Really GOOD shit, man!😊
@ABorderPrince \|/ Oh, absolutely, my man! Hey, guy, thanks for even bothering with noting that you'd remembered how damned long it is that I've been hanging out around here... heh. Yeah, I've actually been fully retired for, heck, quite a damned good many years now... I'd retired at 40, and I am well into 46 now. I only state that fact as it was THAT happy day that began me really starting to utilize UA-cam much more often than ever before. But, I mean, nine hells... I am honestly just always hearing your name getting thrown around out there... out on most all of the other 40K Narrators & Lore Master's channels, and quite often, at that, man... Facts. So, there certainly ain't nobody out there that's forgotten about ya in this scene, not at all. You have unquestionably done something really memorable and worthy of note; especially so, what with your excellent character vocals from all of the contributions to narration! It is just a total standout amongst all of the various tonal qualities and levels of skill involved in doing this thing, man... and that's out of ALL these other narrators that I have been listening to over these many years, my friend. That unique quality of tone is probably your best X-factor/"golden ticket" aspect, out of your 40K content, specifically... at least, it is in my own, not so humble, opinion, anyhow... LoL. Your name is already set into the known annuals of this Warhammer/UA-cam scene, man... and that's just an incredible accomplishment. That's just such absolute badass shit to have already done, my man! You have won at that part of this game of life, already; I'd have to say, man. Pretty damned cool, ya know... Sincerely. Nice work!
1:01:39 For s company obbessed with not repeating the mistakes of their Primach, to suggest that the Ravenguard should have committed their forces en masses, like on Istavaan 3, is repeating the same mistake Ferrus Manus made back then. In not recognizing the strengths of the Ravenguard as they are, is just ignorance of the past mistakes Iran Hands made Ravenguard make on Istavaan 3.
Hi sir we are a small independent action figure company that focuses on military and sci fi based lines. Ive been listening to your stories for a while now and was wondering if you would be interested in doing a read of one of our short stories. The story is based off of one of our figure lines the Futuristic Combat Soldiers and tells a story of a Futuristic Spartan soldier and his dog as they go on a dauntless mission to help save the world.
Isn't that the street fighter 2 thing? RAUKAAN! 😊 great to see you putting stuff out, some audiobook guys I can't listen to.....the fake asian voices and night lords corny voice stuff is poison to my ears...cheers from Chicago💪💯
*THE FLESH IS WEAK BUT DEEDS ENDURE*

Hey Manus has had more screen time in the end and the death than Dorn has, haha
@nickcarroll8565 are you talking about the "Skost" of Ferris Manus? XD

nice
Hey, it's better than naming your son with the Iron Hands, "Iron Hands" and putting him in charge of a Legion called the "Iron Hands."
Iron hands, iron fathers, iron council. Iron peaks, iron thrones, iron glass. Another chapter with daddy issues. They need some of Nurgles love.
entropy
All that iron and nothing to keep it from rusting.
Almost like angry boys but with no blood blood skulls blood skulls
We talkin chaos space marines? Cuz they are the only ones with true daddy issues. Those filthy whores.
Then they would have Grandpappy issues, that's a sidestep at best I reckon.
Warhammer has some of the most well thought out story lines which keep on developing even after 40 years.
"There's a guy named Ferrus Manus which means Iron Hands. He has Iron hands and leads a Legion called the Iron Hands.
There's also Leman Russ! His whole thing is he's like a wolf." - Also Warhammer 40k
He also has iron hands for his iron hand's iron hands to teach them about iron hands.
just dont think about it

i need to read the novels tbh
@@ABorderPrincevery interesting read tbh

I agree with your resume, Iron Hands are way more interesting than I thought before, thank you for bringing us this story!
I totally agree!
I like listening to these during my drives in the countryside to different repair jobs, I particularly enjoyed this one. Great job! and thank you I appreciate what you do... its not like I could read and drive at the same time LOL!
Just picked Iron Hands as my army a few weeks ago before watching this. Nice lore video!
Praised be the Omnissiah
yes
If you take the Iron Hands fandom and relate it to the lack of Lore, then equalize it to that metric with other Legions, the Iron Hands would be 40k's most popular Legion.
Hardly
50:55 he said as if they had ever seen it coming in any of these stories, or had even once been written a credible threat to anything
well....
@@ABorderPrince for what it’s worth I liked the dive into the iron hands, and I appreciate the effort you put into the video 😉
It appears the Gorgon has lost his head....
i know right
Great stuff and we don't get enough of the Iron Hands
Tidy, fella ,locked in bro
cheers
NO MUSIC = BETTER LORE
sir thank you so, so much for that
Take a drink every time he says the word ‘iron’.
that would be bad
Imminent alcohol poisoning

awesome video.
Keep up the good work!
I guess with all the tech they use the neceons would find it easy to control them more then other marines
Good stuff ☕
thank you sir
I love hearing your voice on Amber King's channel. It makes my brain produce happy chemicals.
Love your work!
The flesh is weak, especially around Ferrus Mannus' neck!
He'd still be alive if they were called the Iron Heads! >XD
Something just occurred to me. Ferrus Mannus was from Medusa. Ferrus Mannus had his head cut off. In Greek mythology, Medusa had her head cut off!
Lucky he didn't land on the planet called John Wayne Bobbit; he'd have been called Ferrus Pennus and Fulgrim would have cut his other head off!?!
I do apologize, but also, it's not fair I suffer these thoughts alone!! >XD
o yeah man its like poetry it ryhmes
@@ABorderPrince If you hold Ferrus head up and show it to people do they turn in to iron!? >XD
The flesh is weak! But deeds endure!
Love the videos.
Thank you!

Hey, at least the iron hands aren't the big blue boy scouts.
Way to agressive monetization... Annoying ads every 5 minutes...
love your stuff man, miss your old upload schedule hope your doing alright .
