The literal wall of dead that acted like a barrier and fortification for the guard was the most accurate and most Warhammer thing I have ever seen and I love it
There’s this short story called: *”duty unto death”* In the short story 6 custodies take on an entire splinter fleet of tyranids while protecting primaris tech. For several days they fight none stop, literally building a fortress made out of corpses of the tyranids. In the end, the custodies defeat the tyranids after their Shield-captain defeats a swarm lord in 1vs1 combat after weeks of none stop fighting. This causes the tyranid fleet to break. Not long after, marines malevolent reach the system answering the heils of the custodies. I found the passage: *Vrul strode down the ramp and onto the ash plains, already buffeted by the pyroclastic winds. He spat, and watched the ashes sizzle, before casting his eyes up.* *He beheld a fortress, wrought of victory.* *The corpses of the tyranids had been utilised, not as grim totems of warning or fear, but as once-living brick and mortar. Spurs of bone and chitin held the walls in place, adding to the solid foundations of hewn basalt which they augmented. The flesh of the beasts was seared, blackened, and had run together in places - further annealing the materials together.* *Before it knelt a lone warrior, so still and grey that he seemed another victim of the calamity - an ashen sculpture of ruin. He moved, then, and the Space Marines jerked their weapons up. Vrul did not bother, merely sneering with bemused disdain.* *‘Who goes there?’ he asked. ‘We answered a priority transmission, swathed in clearances fit for a Chapter Master, and all we find is you?’* *‘I am Tamerlain,’ the survivor said. ‘Shield-captain of the Adeptus Custodes.’ He forced himself to his feet, and gestured. Behind him, the techno-arcane mechanism of the sarcophagus hovered like a relic of ancient Gyptus. His brothers and their arms were lain upon the Primaris gene-cache, reverently. Like honoured kings.* *‘I bear word from Terra, and the promise of the future. I bring the means by which brotherhoods such as yours shall weather these nights of fire and blood.’ He touched his fingers to the casket. ‘And you shall help me to bring it where it is needed most. That is my duty, in His name.’*
Ayy, loved seeing the mountains of corpses that are so often described in the lore. Climbing over hills of mangled bodies to reach the combat. Would be quite interesting to see as well how SM heavy weapons teams would swing the tide of this. Imagine a line of marines with heavy lascannons or melta weapons. 1 shot would incinerate thousands of zombos in this kind of press. A single bolter round would easily pass through a dozen rotting fleshbags and the subsequent explosion could probably blow apart quite a handful of them afterwards. So 100 marines holding heavy bolters and just letting loose could have devastating effects. Ahhhhh to nerd over 40k, one of my favourite ever past times.
Promble is ammunition overheat and etc. Bolter rounds are expensive and heavy, while melta plasmz and etc eat huge amount of energy and ammo while exploding if overused...
Look at that Marine that died at the feet of the Emperor at 47:33. Just _try_ to imagine his joy and elation at receiving such a honour. Should his feelings and emotions reach the Warp, that alone would be enough to make Tzeentch recoil in horror.
A hive city holds between 10 million to several billion inhabitants - This might happen, yes - But would also be more easily countered, with the use of vehicles, flamers, grenades and the like; Imagine a dreadnaught facing this entire pox-walker hive city alongside his brethren. Brrrt goes the minigun.
This is what I imagine when I hear about battles in 40k. So many fighting and dying that it soaks the ground red, and then both of them shrugging it off as "just another fight."
normally the only force in 40k that gets scared enough to retreat is the orcs or the tyranids .. most factions are not afraid to lay it all out on the battle field right then and there
@@SirSlyDingo Not entirely true. Imperial forces will withdraw if whatever they're fighting over isn't worth it. I don't know about the Tau, but I wouldn't be surprised if they do the same. Chaos, being Chaos, depends on many circumstances. And Eldar of either kind flat out *will not* pick a fight they don't think they can win 100%.
The lessons of this are clear: failure to adequately supply artillery (in the form of Earthshakers, heavy mortars, and Wyvern platforms) and armor (in the form of Chimera, Hellhound, and Russ tanks) resulted in the loss of an unacceptable number of Space Marines and, worse, the minor inconveniencing of the immortal God-Emperor.
Those Kreigers are badass for surviving all the way to the end. The emperor would probably personally commemorate all of them and they would no doubt become legends of their regiment
Watching the line of black templars to red with blood that spatters their armor as they wade into the horde hacking dozens of zombies to shreds with each swing of their chainswords while advancing was awesome.
@@DeathBYDesign666they're used to fighting gods? Are you new to 40k or just a poser? You think space marines fight the chaos gods directly? What even...
That wall of Astartes, inching it's way up north, pulling the beleaguered outpost out of it's siege, heading into the mountains, while the main defense location continues to fight even as the Nurgalite hordes still advance. This here is what 40k is all about
Guardsmen: i cant believe i survived, i cant hear shit now. Cant wait for those imperial guard benefits to kick in.. Administratum: your hearing loss is not service related
Well obviously it's because he didn't get it documented for several months immediately after the battle before he was discharged so they didn't have enough medical history on file to prove it happened then. That's what the understaffed medical personnel everyone hazes you for going to see are for! That's why you keep copies of everything so you can prove the stuff that should have been on file is there despite half the stuff in the field being an informal "get it checked out when we get back" and then "No, you can do that later, we need you for a layout!"
I think a thousand zombies to a marine in a direct fight is fair, but only if the marines are dumb enough to let zombies rush them and fight head to head. They'd pound the area with ordnance then mop up, probably lose noone
@@barrylyndon5552no way. 20 million zombies could never even make a single dent on *a* space marine. It's like saying you could punch through the armor on a tank. No you fucking can't. Even if the zombies are twice as strong as a human the marine is still impervious to any attack from a zombie. 0 damage X 20 million is still 0.
Same, i think i had the biggest smile on my face seeing that. The Guardsmen did well holding that line. And seeing the literal river of blood and bodies flowing down the mountain felt like the Dawn of War 3 trailer.
They are fighting beside the Master of Mankind. You know, the one they're doing it for. Morale is staying at 100% and never dropping for 'em - this is their redemption, no two ways about it.
Love how the small fort in which the Emperor and his men were first defending raised in elevation just to the sheer numbers of bodies they piled up before moving.
That is just... surreal! The zombies were able to enter into the fortifications, because they formed a mound of corpses. In the end, both cities were lost, not to a winning enemy but to a DEFEATED one, with the towns buried under piles and piles of dead zombies.
For me the single most 40k thing about this entire video was not the space marines killing obscene numbers, not the literal mountains of bodies, not the endless sound of conflict that went unceasing for 20 whole minutes. No, the single most 40k thing about this video was in the first 10 seconds of the attack, when the guardsmen decided that the best way of winning this battle was to fix bayonets and CHARGE into the unending hordes of the enemy.
When it comes to Chaos invading a world, this is about as accurate as it gets. I especially loved the rivers and lakes of blood forming from the sheer amount of casualties. This is something that is often mentioned in the books.
Imagine shooting at the horizon and getting a headshot message, The coolest thing about the video was the fact that despite the fact that they were the main line of defense, at the end there were still members of the imperial guard alive.
Honestly one of my fave bits with this was following the last Blood Angel(?) as he pushed from the first compound with the rescue team, fighting throughout the various different battle lines, before heading off to hold off the main horde remnant till his dying breath
Blood Ravens, also known as the "Definitely not Thousand Sons successors" unironically a cooler chapter than the blood angels imo. Even though DOW III is awful and has terrible lore the Ravens' lore is pretty awesome
According to my great grandad, thats exactly what it was like fighting the Germans in WW1. A huge grey mass that were climbing over the dead to get to the Brit lines, no joke.
I don't know what would be more horrifyng, for the british to see an unending barrage of enemies that didn't matter how many you killed, there were ten more behind, or for the very same germans, forced to advance, walking on the corpses of so many people with your same uniform, and you cannot see the ground anymore.
With these blood slicked mountains, Khorne will be pleased. Momentarily. You'd think that by being an hour into an unrelenting melee onslaught that chainswords will be less a chain weapon and more just a regular sword with teeth, with its gear mechanisms jammed by gore and gristle.
@@battlesimulatorgamernext time you do this.... Watch BRICKY'S introduction into WARHAMMER 40k so you can have EVERYONE PARTICIPATE in a battle like this ..
All I can hear is a legion of Space Marines gruffly singing "I'm Still Standing" in unison, giddy as schoolgirls, as they wade through hordes of undead corpses like great, armored scythes through wheat. Its beautiful lol
The emperor himself would be leading the chorus. Emperor (while hacking down a hundred zombies at once): *I’M STILL STANDIN’* Space Marines: *BETTER THAN I EVER DID* Emperor: *LOOKIN’ LIKE A TRUE SURVIVOR* Space Marines: *FEELIN’ LIKE A LITTLE KID* Emperor: *I’M STILL STANDIN’* Space Marines: *YEAH!!! YEAH!!! YEAH!!!*
i would put them up for spacemarine training asap and see if they make it and if so well you got yourself one hell of a fighter that outlived and fought custodies
I mean I think the Emperor would agree at this point but likewise if he wasn't a corpse he'd probably purge all the space marines and Inquisition and sisters and massive sections of the guard leadership. Or maybe he'd just give up and yeet himself into the warp given how far astray from his vision the imperium has drifted
That’s exactly why they were split in the first place. So no primarch could command should numbers again in opposition to the Emperor. I mean forget the fact that each chapter still answers to and blindly follows their primarchs and their lineage.
yeah but now imagine that force turned heretic and now that massive amount of space marines is invading Holy Terra. Thats how you get the Horus Heresy 2.0 lol. 1000 space marines converting and invading wouldn't be as detrimental as 20,000 would
@@Cobrazay devils advocate: the chapters no matter which ones will always heed the call of their primarch. Basically I’m saying if Big Blue said “my sons join me in ridding terra of the warp spawn chaos gods possessing my father, so he can finally know peace , blah blah blah.” Do you honestly think (in universe) any chapter descending from him would say no? I mean you’re talking what 500,000 marines, and I’m not even counting the primaris marines, all saying “yes my primarch” without blinking. Terra would have a chance during the age before Guilliman or the lion came back because the Chapters with the same gene-seed wouldn’t necessarily unify because let’s be honest space marines still have the ego (or loyalty to the memory?) to not follow other chapters or individual chapter masters other then their own. That all gets thrown out when your own Primarch returns.
@@tarn1135 I understand what you're saying, and I totally agree with you lol, I was just responding to the original commenter and giving another reason why the legions shouldnt be so massive. But yeah you make a good point
Strategy put aside by overwhelming arrogance of the Space Marine. The fact that there were still some guardsmen alive at the end was a fav moment :) I tried not worry too much about the Ammunition logistics ;) Top video :)
That terrain quickly went from snowy mountains to blood and corpses. So high were the piles of the dead you could use them as ramps. I'm happy some Kreigers survived despite their best efforts. They did some good gun support.
Awesome! This was like a real storyline battle. The Space Marines run to their leader and then charge together against the continuing threat! The only thing I don't agree with is if they were set up according to the actual lore, the zombies would've stood no chance. Especially if Land Raiders and Titans were involved. Fun to watch regardless though....there is something oddly relaxing while watching this slaughter of millions....odd but true! haha 😃
True, the emperor would probably eradicate the chaos beasts simply by gracing their blighted forms with his presence. And any Astartes could probably kill off the entire hoard on his own. Since there are only pox walkers they have no way to harm the space marine whatsoever, so even if said marine did become completely exhausted somehow, they could literally sleep for a week while the pox walkers hopelessly threw themselves at the armor.
Grenades. Flamers. The Astartes just holding their chainswords out front and letting the press of the enemies' bodies do the work. Would have cut down on stress, trouble and casualties by a lot.
Imagine being one of the sole conscript or cadian survivor of fort 2 and being rescued in extremis by black templars. A life worth of PTSD, but on the plus side, you were obviously and directly protected by the Emperor so I guess that evens out ?
I have no idea how this simulator works, but it's awesome. It's also would be a perfect way to present battles in what's called the Wars of Unification. When the Emperor united earth. Weird different troops of all kinds. The space Marines would change to Thunder Warriors. Who should be a lot more of a melee force, and honestly tougher then the Space Marines. You could add guys not much smaller then the Emperor (his bodyguard the Custodes) who are really tough.
@adamkhan4451 Space Marines are more stable genetically and psychologically. Thunder Warriors were "hothoused" and were prone to random catastrophic sudden mutations. Also, they were brutal tools. Not really directed/led in combat, more unleashed. Not only were Space Marines easier to mass produce, they're much more genetically stable and can take orders. It took the Custodes and all of the first run of the first SM (literally the 1st Legion Dark Angels) legionaries to deal with the TW. It took an average of 10 Marines to take 1 TW. As for the primarus.....some mechanics twit "improved" the Emperor's designs huh? Smells like alpha legion shenanigans to me. (Check out Oculus Imperia, he's got lore videos that are unparalleled)
I concur. Haha I know of 2 people who absolutely savour these biblical type battles! Now they may act squeamish when they see it, but boy, if you could see their real face when they are watching it.. :)) I dunno, it gives them a chance to write poetry and songs, which they feel is what beautifies their lives. This adds value to our lives. We need this in our lives. Watching these, now this really made our day/week. The virtual stuff is enough for me though, but I know of at least 2 people who would turn the sim into something real, if they could! Sending the way of this channel 2 very enthusiastic+eager fans of epic world wars and battlegrounds :)
Stuff i loved about this battle: Warhammer40K Theme and that it was a dynamic battle were both sides were trying to get into a certain position and not just a static defence
Wow. The corpse piles and corpse rivers sliding down the mountainside made this totally epic. The bodies piled to twice the height of the houses! Didn't expect the Emperor to need to be rescued TWICE xD Although, hard to say if he did need it. Pretty sure he could clear the whole horde himself if held to a corner. Would be more interesting if he and the Marines' HP were much lower. Seeing one guy tanking a billion hits is pretty lame. Funny how the weird pathing at the end made the Marines the swarm descending on the stationary Zombies. Revenge ;p
I certainly didn't expect the Emperor to be in peril twice, let alone rescued twice. It was incredibly fortunate to capture those moments. Thank you for watching the video and sharing your detailed thoughts!
This was great. I do feel like in reality 20k Space Marines would have demolished the zombies with only 10% casualties at most, since instead of just chainswords they would have other weapons and vehicles. Nonetheless, it was a great battle.
It’s amazing to see the warriors that advance instead of retreat in a defensive fight. Samurai, Jedi, and now these guys in red do that too. Cool stuff! Ps. Just realized their suits where not red to begin with. Madness.
This is amazing and I would argue fairly accurate. Providing the emperor used his psychic might to empower and make his imperial guard immune to the virus.
This is one of the best Warhammer 40K UEBS 2 videos I've seen. Strangely addictive to watch these funny videos. Its good how you've made the effort to mark chapters in the fight and you capture key moments. Have you made several isolated groups before to fight and regroup and/or then rescue a group defending a high point/base?
Huh, interesting. You can see the lines of marines thicken and thin at points, and it looks like the defining factor of when they were able to dominate or were slowly whittled away, was whether the group of marines could keep their guardsmen alive behind them. Strange.
@@Lord-Regent-of-the-Imperium The tip of the spear is the likes of the Space Marines, the Adepta Sororitas, the Custodes. You could perhaps argue that the rest of the spear is the Mechanicus. But the man holding the spear, his fellows beside him, the entire phalanx of them, and all of their friends, families and people they've ever known is the Astra Militarum. You don't get to be called the Hammer of the Emperor for nothing! They are the mainstay fighting force of the human race, and games focus on what's particularly special.
@georgesmaga1520 No, the one holding the spear is the Emperor. The custodes don't do as much, the sororitas don't field as many units, and the mechanicus does its own thing a majority of the time. When we're talking about primary fighting forces, we're talking guardsmen and astartes.
The mechanicus is the smith of the spear, and sees that it is well made, honed, and repaired. The Space Marines are the tip, the guard the shaft. The sororitas, inquisition, combat mechanicus, and other irregulars form the reinforcement between the two. Too few to be the shaft, too frail to be the tip, but just strong and numerous enough to hold the two together. The hand is the administratum, the telepathica, the astropaths, and many others. Weapons of war they are not, but without them, the spear would be left on the wall. And the Emperor and his Custodians are the shield. Perhaps unseen and unfelt by the spear at times, yet without it, nothing could survive or continue. And the body, the heart, is Humanity itself.
2 things when the defensive wedge of cadians in the emperor's fortrss fell you got me cryin' there Totally lore wise accurate the deathkorps of krieg charging after being "rescued" Really nice video btw
There is a 40k short story "Endurance" by Chris Wraight that is about a space marine holding his own against an entire horde. I think they describe his hearts bursting from exhaustion.
More than 20 chapters is overkill for 20,000,000 zombies. 1 properly armed battle company could pull this off. But then again you'd get the same result with 1 word, EXTERMINARTUS!!
This was surprisingly enjoyable. After the first minute I thought, well, this is stupid. And then I got actually excited when the Marines arrived to brake the siege around the Emperor at the first little fort there. 82 minutes well spent! :D
Reading the siege of terra right now and this is exactly what I needed to visualize the absolute devestation of astartes fighting anything that isn't other astartes lol
What would be the setup for this? Alt universe where the Emperor didn't die, somehow separated from custodes and any vehiclular support on this ice world. Working with the Black Templars, Blood Angels, and Ultramarines. I guess it was a plot set in advance by Nurgle by having his undead remain buried beneath the snow in ambush, though they still needed to gather for the assault.
@@vadandrumist1670and Blood Ravens moreso I'd say, since they're all but confirmed to be a Thousand Sons successor. No amount of alternate timelines could create this. The Emperor would purge the Templars and Ravens. The Templars for worship, the Ravens for dangerous use of psionics and probably a myriad of other minor offences which would disgust him.
And this is why terrain is the most important aspect of any war. It looked like the Space Marines were going to lose a couple of times but once they got the high ground and a number of choke points it was over for the zombies. GREAT VIDEO TY! Btw it's a small thing but is there a way to make the counters permanently with a black background so we can see the numbers clearly all the time? a lot of the time it seemed transparent. Hope it's possible as I love to see the rate of kill ticks :D
Terrain and a commander to have them hold the line/order. Once their love was broken, not reinforcing to stop getting flanked. But let the sim provide entertainment
What a Dark Day for the Imperium. The Emperor won a Pyrrhic Victory against the forces of chaos Zombie Army. Over 40k troops lost incouding thiusands of Space Marines. Many the emperor knew himself
Lets be honest, there wouldn't be a Space Marine casualty. No zombie is getting through that armor. It's only a matter of time. The SM's would drop dead of exhaustion first.
They took out so many Zoombies when they climbed that hill and can down on them, making several choke points that trapped them and turned into kill boxes/fatal funnels...just awsome!
1:00:32 That moment when you zoomed in on the last of those stranded Templars getting surrounded, the last 30 of them standing ground to a horde, surrounded, all covered in blood, knowing well they're all dead and just ripping and tearing, Marine to Marine in their last final stand... ...and then i saw this one Kriegsman in front living his best life... and his best death.
I hope the devs develops this game further, and/or improve this game for future releases. Here, the units are just trying to swing to each other, neglecting their combat discipline, formation, or basic communication between units. Much less expecting any hint of commands and map awareness. In my observation, seemingly just moving on to each other by the closest possible path. Not sure if such logic script patchable or had to be built from ground up, but it definitely would look more believable and even more awesome than it already is. Also, imagine air superiority, while we're at it. Having AC130 doing flyby death from above, but limited to several salvoes until it had to refill ammo and fuels, or maybe GoT dragons. Should be doable, but not saying it would be easy. Friendly fire should stay at OFF, tho. The physics codes required to achieve the condition where it can finally be turned ON quite possibly still way too demanding.
@@tonyyul703 I'd prefer adding unit practicality first, based on their training or depiction in media and history. Imagine Spartans automatically form phalanx formation when we group them together, covering each other. Wall of shields the entire horizon, thorned with pikes, pushing forward. Only switch to their sword when shields been breached for CQC melee brawl. And it won't just be one line of them doing it. Or Rohirim cavalry actually smashing through foot soldiers. These guys don't stop their horse and swing their sword to each unit they encounter in their path. They swing it while also charging. Let's reduce their charging speed when it happens to imply collisions to make it believable. Or Roman Elites actually commanding the units they're assigned to, with soldiers following their lead. Looking for the weakest link in the chain, and attack it. While also trying their hardest to maintain their number. Retreat a bit, if they have to. Or the musket soldiers lining up for firing salvoes. Or the special forces actually being special forces. These guys won't just stand there and shoot stuff. Now ,that level of implied order and discipline, would be even more epic for a spectacle. I'd even forgive their infinite ammo or simplified animation assets to cope with hardware if these feats can be displayed lol But yes, when we could establish that aspect, then we finally add weapons variety.
@Jakaze_ yeah I'm also aware. Most probably due to either technical limitation or unrealistic deadline. There will always be constraints or strings attached... Such is life
I don't think that was Yonkers. Yonkers was a total disaster due to use of shock and awe and giving audio and video communication to most of the soldiers. I do remember later in the book they were out testing the new box formation and tactics, but ended up pulling a huge hoard which became their biggest victory.
Kind of what I imagine the death plagues invading a small hive city would look like. I like this. Missing some war crys from the lads but will let that slide. Maybe some reinactments of 40k wars could be good 👍
What's crazy is that in any other setting this would be the final climactic fight to decide the fate of the world. But in 40k a battle like this is just another Tuesday.
One thing extra, and this would have been beyond awesome... when the Death Corp leapt from their fort to join up with the Marines... you should have had Sabaton's "Attack of the Dead Men" start up. Other than that... loved it!
The literal wall of dead that acted like a barrier and fortification for the guard was the most accurate and most Warhammer thing I have ever seen and I love it
There’s this short story called: *”duty unto death”*
In the short story 6 custodies take on an entire splinter fleet of tyranids while protecting primaris tech. For several days they fight none stop, literally building a fortress made out of corpses of the tyranids.
In the end, the custodies defeat the tyranids after their Shield-captain defeats a swarm lord in 1vs1 combat after weeks of none stop fighting. This causes the tyranid fleet to break. Not long after, marines malevolent reach the system answering the heils of the custodies.

Spurs of bone and chitin held the walls in place, adding to the solid foundations of hewn basalt which they augmented. The flesh of the beasts was seared, blackened, and had run together in places - further annealing the materials together.*
*Before it knelt a lone warrior, so still and grey that he seemed another victim of the calamity - an ashen sculpture of ruin. He moved, then, and the Space Marines jerked their weapons up. Vrul did not bother, merely sneering with bemused disdain.*
*‘Who goes there?’ he asked. ‘We answered a priority transmission, swathed in clearances fit for a Chapter Master, and all we find is you?’*
*‘I am Tamerlain,’ the survivor said. ‘Shield-captain of the Adeptus Custodes.’ He forced himself to his feet, and gestured. Behind him, the techno-arcane mechanism of the sarcophagus hovered like a relic of ancient Gyptus. His brothers and their arms were lain upon the Primaris gene-cache, reverently.

@@meshuggahshirtthere's several tens of thousands across hundreds of chapters
That one singular angel on that mountain was standing on business lol. He was like “ GO ON BROTHERS TELL THE EMPEROR THESE WERE MINE”
That wall of Astartes, inching it's way up north, pulling the beleaguered outpost out of it's siege, heading into the mountains, while the main defense location continues to fight even as the Nurgalite hordes still advance. This here is what 40k is all about

Administratum: your hearing loss is not service related
sounds about right
"sounds"
Just like the VA!
Well obviously it's because he didn't get it documented for several months immediately after the battle before he was discharged so they didn't have enough medical history on file to prove it happened then. That's what the understaffed medical personnel everyone hazes you for going to see are for!
That's why you keep copies of everything so you can prove the stuff that should have been on file is there despite half the stuff in the field being an informal "get it checked out when we get back" and then "No, you can do that later, we need you for a layout!"
I love how effectively an entire legion was thrown against 20 million zombies came out in shambles. Not lore accurate, but very fun to watch.
I think a thousand zombies to a marine in a direct fight is fair, but only if the marines are dumb enough to let zombies rush them and fight head to head. They'd pound the area with ordnance then mop up, probably lose noone
An entire legion would be 100k+ Marines, this is like a Great Company worth of Marines at best
@@barrylyndon5552then again these are Black Templar
@@recluse5245 *ahem* was that an insult? You better be careful or one of us might think you're being heretical...
@@barrylyndon5552no way. 20 million zombies could never even make a single dent on *a* space marine. It's like saying you could punch through the armor on a tank. No you fucking can't.
Even if the zombies are twice as strong as a human the marine is still impervious to any attack from a zombie. 0 damage X 20 million is still 0.
Words can not describe the amount of euphoria when I saw the Kreigers fix bayonets and scale the mountain of bodies as they went on the offensive.
Same, i think i had the biggest smile on my face seeing that. The Guardsmen did well holding that line. And seeing the literal river of blood and bodies flowing down the mountain felt like the Dawn of War 3 trailer.
They are fighting beside the Master of Mankind. You know, the one they're doing it for. Morale is staying at 100% and never dropping for 'em - this is their redemption, no two ways about it.
They must have been so happy to finally find a worthy opponent
Please @time:stamp moments like these in reaction comments. I would very much enjoy a bookmark for said euphoria.
"Affix Bayonets, Shovels at the ready. For the Golden Throne! For the Emperor! CHARGE!"
The fact that this guy’s PC didn’t detonate a nuclear blast trying to run this battle is astonishing.
Love how the small fort in which the Emperor and his men were first defending raised in elevation just to the sheer numbers of bodies they piled up before moving.
That is just... surreal! The zombies were able to enter into the fortifications, because they formed a mound of corpses. In the end, both cities were lost, not to a winning enemy but to a DEFEATED one, with the towns buried under piles and piles of dead zombies.
For me the single most 40k thing about this entire video was not the space marines killing obscene numbers, not the literal mountains of bodies, not the endless sound of conflict that went unceasing for 20 whole minutes. No, the single most 40k thing about this video was in the first 10 seconds of the attack, when the guardsmen decided that the best way of winning this battle was to fix bayonets and CHARGE into the unending hordes of the enemy.
When it comes to Chaos invading a world, this is about as accurate as it gets. I especially loved the rivers and lakes of blood forming from the sheer amount of casualties. This is something that is often mentioned in the books.
Imagine shooting at the horizon and getting a headshot message, The coolest thing about the video was the fact that despite the fact that they were the main line of defense, at the end there were still members of the imperial guard alive.
Honestly one of my fave bits with this was following the last Blood Angel(?) as he pushed from the first compound with the rescue team, fighting throughout the various different battle lines, before heading off to hold off the main horde remnant till his dying breath
Blood raven, player space marine chapter from Dawn of War game series,
Blood Ravens, also known as the "Definitely not Thousand Sons successors"
unironically a cooler chapter than the blood angels imo. Even though DOW III is awful and has terrible lore the Ravens' lore is pretty awesome
@@gormros there is also possibility that their genefather is Lorgar
@@krzysztofys2100 Lorgar, Magnus or Horus, with Magnus being the more likely one.
18:58 I got a little emotional watching him alone in the mountain
According to my great grandad, thats exactly what it was like fighting the Germans in WW1. A huge grey mass that were climbing over the dead to get to the Brit lines, no joke.
I don't know what would be more horrifyng, for the british to see an unending barrage of enemies that didn't matter how many you killed, there were ten more behind, or for the very same germans, forced to advance, walking on the corpses of so many people with your same uniform, and you cannot see the ground anymore.
With these blood slicked mountains, Khorne will be pleased. Momentarily.
You'd think that by being an hour into an unrelenting melee onslaught that chainswords will be less a chain weapon and more just a regular sword with teeth, with its gear mechanisms jammed by gore and gristle.
I like your imagination. thanks for the comment.
The blessed weapon jamming? That's the heresy speaking out of you
@@battlesimulatorgamernext time you do this.... Watch BRICKY'S introduction into WARHAMMER 40k so you can have EVERYONE PARTICIPATE in a battle like this ..
Khorne for the Khorne flakes!
well for this battle lets just go with Big E blessed the chain swords to not get clogged or jammed. Bet he beefed the Guard too.
All I can hear is a legion of Space Marines gruffly singing "I'm Still Standing" in unison, giddy as schoolgirls, as they wade through hordes of undead corpses like great, armored scythes through wheat. Its beautiful lol
The emperor himself would be leading the chorus.
Emperor (while hacking down a hundred zombies at once): *I’M STILL STANDIN’*
Space Marines: *BETTER THAN I EVER DID*
Emperor: *LOOKIN’ LIKE A TRUE SURVIVOR*
Space Marines: *FEELIN’ LIKE A LITTLE KID*
Emperor: *I’M STILL STANDIN’*
Space Marines: *YEAH!!! YEAH!!! YEAH!!!*
The fact any guardsmen lived astonished me.
Там просто не было ни одного комиссара, иначе бы их уже расстреляли бы за трусость и ересь
Lucky Bastards, they outlived their expected life time on the front line by 45 minutes.
Obviously heretical warp trickery, the survivors have been executed for Chaos taint
That just means that there weren't enough tithed commissar.
i would put them up for spacemarine training asap and see if they make it and if so well you got yourself one hell of a fighter that outlived and fought custodies
At 33:45 the way them marines are walking and plowing them down is realistic af. Literally had me saying "FOR THE EMPEROR"
With literal rivers of blood running through the battlefield, Khorne would be proud. Blood for the Blood God.
Skulls for the emperor trone!!!)
That's simply the most lore-accurate 40k battle I've ever seen.
Apart from there being nothing, that I can think of, that a zombie could do to hurt a Space Marine once he's buttoned up in his armour.
and the fact that for over half the battle the God emperor was just chilling and not being involved
Pre 30k maybe, but more that 20 full chapters of marines in 1 place in 40k?? No they'd just exterminartus the planet.
Seeing so many space marines on one screen truly hammers home that the legions never should have split apart
I mean I think the Emperor would agree at this point but likewise if he wasn't a corpse he'd probably purge all the space marines and Inquisition and sisters and massive sections of the guard leadership. Or maybe he'd just give up and yeet himself into the warp given how far astray from his vision the imperium has drifted
That’s exactly why they were split in the first place. So no primarch could command should numbers again in opposition to the Emperor. I mean forget the fact that each chapter still answers to and blindly follows their primarchs and their lineage.
yeah but now imagine that force turned heretic and now that massive amount of space marines is invading Holy Terra. Thats how you get the Horus Heresy 2.0 lol. 1000 space marines converting and invading wouldn't be as detrimental as 20,000 would
@@Cobrazay devils advocate: the chapters no matter which ones will always heed the call of their primarch. Basically I’m saying if Big Blue said “my sons join me in ridding terra of the warp spawn chaos gods possessing my father, so he can finally know peace , blah blah blah.” Do you honestly think (in universe) any chapter descending from him would say no? I mean you’re talking what 500,000 marines, and I’m not even counting the primaris marines, all saying “yes my primarch” without blinking. Terra would have a chance during the age before Guilliman or the lion came back because the Chapters with the same gene-seed wouldn’t necessarily unify because let’s be honest space marines still have the ego (or loyalty to the memory?) to not follow other chapters or individual chapter masters other then their own. That all gets thrown out when your own Primarch returns.
@@tarn1135 I understand what you're saying, and I totally agree with you lol, I was just responding to the original commenter and giving another reason why the legions shouldnt be so massive. But yeah you make a good point
The Emperor needs his massive psychic powers too. He would be blowing away hundreds at a time, not just a dozen or so with a sweep of the sword.
Strategy put aside by overwhelming arrogance of the Space Marine. The fact that there were still some guardsmen alive at the end was a fav moment :)
I tried not worry too much about the Ammunition logistics ;)
Top video :)
Every Marine has to kill an average of 1000 zombies for any shot at victory. Very entertaining.
Also enjoy how the Primarchs dive right into the fray
1000 zombies per marine, a walk in the park on a sunday afternoon.
As a guardsman, I can confirm this is our daily life.
You guys are the real heroes! (Don't tell the Astartes I said that)
Cadia still lives on!
FOR THE EMPEROR!!!
And you, too, are at war with the emperor; no commissar will raise morale than the emperor himself
'They say the marines killed a million zombies that day"
"yeah we killed 19 million but whatever, yay marines again"
😂
You know you're in a brutal war when you can't tell the Black Templars apart from the Blood Angels... (because of the gore) Epic
That casualty check at 9min is hilarious, mountains of bodies over running the walls and its barely 10% down :D

Indeed.
As we can see, The Emperor can destroy all the zombies himself. Emperor protects
The fallen shall be forever remembered as the emperor's finest
That terrain quickly went from snowy mountains to blood and corpses.
So high were the piles of the dead you could use them as ramps.
I'm happy some Kreigers survived despite their best efforts. They did some good gun support.
and to think, this would be considered a small skirmish for most planetary inversion/ defenses in 40k
@ 30:30 When all hope was lost and the fall of the base looked certain, the Calvary arrived!
That timing was just so cool!!
Awesome! This was like a real storyline battle. The Space Marines run to their leader and then charge together against the continuing threat! The only thing I don't agree with is if they were set up according to the actual lore, the zombies would've stood no chance. Especially if Land Raiders and Titans were involved. Fun to watch regardless though....there is something oddly relaxing while watching this slaughter of millions....odd but true! haha 😃
учитывая то что Император буквально бессмертный
True, the emperor would probably eradicate the chaos beasts simply by gracing their blighted forms with his presence. And any Astartes could probably kill off the entire hoard on his own. Since there are only pox walkers they have no way to harm the space marine whatsoever, so even if said marine did become completely exhausted somehow, they could literally sleep for a week while the pox walkers hopelessly threw themselves at the armor.
Grenades. Flamers. The Astartes just holding their chainswords out front and letting the press of the enemies' bodies do the work. Would have cut down on stress, trouble and casualties by a lot.
"It was said that so much blood was shed that day that it poured down the mountain like a river."
Metal.
Imagine being one of the sole conscript or cadian survivor of fort 2 and being rescued in extremis by black templars. A life worth of PTSD, but on the plus side, you were obviously and directly protected by the Emperor so I guess that evens out ?
Эпично, очень эпично, самое эпичное, что я видел в симуляции! Определенно лайк!
"We will slaughter such a staggering number that the battlefield itself will drown in the blood of the heretics!" Is such a 40k line
20,000 space marine rescue team vs the population of most of Australia xD. thanks for the upload
I have no idea how this simulator works, but it's awesome. It's also would be a perfect way to present battles in what's called the Wars of Unification. When the Emperor united earth. Weird different troops of all kinds. The space Marines would change to Thunder Warriors. Who should be a lot more of a melee force, and honestly tougher then the Space Marines. You could add guys not much smaller then the Emperor (his bodyguard the Custodes) who are really tough.
@adamkhan4451 Space Marines are more stable genetically and psychologically. Thunder Warriors were "hothoused" and were prone to random catastrophic sudden mutations. Also, they were brutal tools. Not really directed/led in combat, more unleashed. Not only were Space Marines easier to mass produce, they're much more genetically stable and can take orders. It took the Custodes and all of the first run of the first SM (literally the 1st Legion Dark Angels) legionaries to deal with the TW. It took an average of 10 Marines to take 1 TW. As for the primarus.....some mechanics twit "improved" the Emperor's designs huh? Smells like alpha legion shenanigans to me. (Check out Oculus Imperia, he's got lore videos that are unparalleled)
😂😂😂 I love how the Cadian Guardsman die in droves, but the Black Templars just carve a bloody path through the zombies, this was awesome.
That was sick! A very long battle, and a lot of different bits. We need more of this!
I concur. Haha I know of 2 people who absolutely savour these biblical type battles! Now they may act squeamish when they see it, but boy, if you could see their real face when they are watching it.. :)) I dunno, it gives them a chance to write poetry and songs, which they feel is what beautifies their lives. This adds value to our lives. We need this in our lives. Watching these, now this really made our day/week. The virtual stuff is enough for me though, but I know of at least 2 people who would turn the sim into something real, if they could! Sending the way of this channel 2 very enthusiastic+eager fans of epic world wars and battlegrounds :)
The fact that any Kriegers, let alone anyone in the first fort, survived before the rescue team got there is a miracle. The Emperor protects.
Stuff i loved about this battle: Warhammer40K Theme and that it was a dynamic battle were both sides were trying to get into a certain position and not just a static defence
Wow. The corpse piles and corpse rivers sliding down the mountainside made this totally epic. The bodies piled to twice the height of the houses!
Didn't expect the Emperor to need to be rescued TWICE xD Although, hard to say if he did need it. Pretty sure he could clear the whole horde himself if held to a corner.
Would be more interesting if he and the Marines' HP were much lower. Seeing one guy tanking a billion hits is pretty lame.
Funny how the weird pathing at the end made the Marines the swarm descending on the stationary Zombies. Revenge ;p
I certainly didn't expect the Emperor to be in peril twice, let alone rescued twice. It was incredibly fortunate to capture those moments.
Thank you for watching the video and sharing your detailed thoughts!
The best bit imo was the krieg troopers pouring out of the base on the assault after being relived by the space marines.
Thank you Astartes, now GET THOSE SHOVELS OUT BOYS, TIME TO CHARGE!
This was great. I do feel like in reality 20k Space Marines would have demolished the zombies with only 10% casualties at most, since instead of just chainswords they would have other weapons and vehicles. Nonetheless, it was a great battle.
True. Pretty sure Big E could've wiped all 20million out himself, with some mild exertion, in fact.
Big E could have just unexisted the entire enemy force but he wanted to swing his big blazing sword.
So truuuue xD
It’s amazing to see the warriors that advance instead of retreat in a defensive fight. Samurai, Jedi, and now these guys in red do that too. Cool stuff!
Ps. Just realized their suits where not red to begin with. Madness.
This is amazing and I would argue fairly accurate. Providing the emperor used his psychic might to empower and make his imperial guard immune to the virus.
This is one of the best Warhammer 40K UEBS 2 videos I've seen.
Strangely addictive to watch these funny videos.
Its good how you've made the effort to mark chapters in the fight and you capture key moments.
Have you made several isolated groups before to fight and regroup and/or then rescue a group defending a high point/base?
Huh, interesting. You can see the lines of marines thicken and thin at points, and it looks like the defining factor of when they were able to dominate or were slowly whittled away, was whether the group of marines could keep their guardsmen alive behind them. Strange.
The Imperial Guard- the Astra Militarum- THE WALL OF GUNS.
Well astartes may be the tip of the spear, but it is the guard that form the spine.
@@Lord-Regent-of-the-Imperium The tip of the spear is the likes of the Space Marines, the Adepta Sororitas, the Custodes. You could perhaps argue that the rest of the spear is the Mechanicus. But the man holding the spear, his fellows beside him, the entire phalanx of them, and all of their friends, families and people they've ever known is the Astra Militarum.
You don't get to be called the Hammer of the Emperor for nothing! They are the mainstay fighting force of the human race, and games focus on what's particularly special.
@georgesmaga1520 No, the one holding the spear is the Emperor. The custodes don't do as much, the sororitas don't field as many units, and the mechanicus does its own thing a majority of the time. When we're talking about primary fighting forces, we're talking guardsmen and astartes.
The mechanicus is the smith of the spear, and sees that it is well made, honed, and repaired.
The Space Marines are the tip, the guard the shaft.
The sororitas, inquisition, combat mechanicus, and other irregulars form the reinforcement between the two. Too few to be the shaft, too frail to be the tip, but just strong and numerous enough to hold the two together.
The hand is the administratum, the telepathica, the astropaths, and many others. Weapons of war they are not, but without them, the spear would be left on the wall.
And the Emperor and his Custodians are the shield. Perhaps unseen and unfelt by the spear at times, yet without it, nothing could survive or continue.
And the body, the heart, is Humanity itself.
2 things
when the defensive wedge of cadians in the emperor's fortrss fell you got me cryin' there
Totally lore wise accurate the deathkorps of krieg charging after being "rescued"
Really nice video btw
I have no idea how any amount of zombies can even hurt a space marine. Maybe if SM dies of exhaustion?
Immobilise them using mountains of bodies as tombs.
@@ezonplays2260 Where is some psycho to count how many zombie bodies you need to create enough PSI by pilling them up so SM cannot move anymore?
There is a 40k short story "Endurance" by Chris Wraight that is about a space marine holding his own against an entire horde. I think they describe his hearts bursting from exhaustion.
@@ezonplays2260actually this almost killed Cawl
He is also much larger than even the Primarchs.
SM often end up getting weighed down and killed when the numbers get hectic
More than 20 chapters is overkill for 20,000,000 zombies. 1 properly armed battle company could pull this off. But then again you'd get the same result with 1 word, EXTERMINARTUS!!
This was surprisingly enjoyable. After the first minute I thought, well, this is stupid. And then I got actually excited when the Marines arrived to brake the siege around the Emperor at the first little fort there.
82 minutes well spent! :D
Reading the siege of terra right now and this is exactly what I needed to visualize the absolute devestation of astartes fighting anything that isn't other astartes lol
What would be the setup for this? Alt universe where the Emperor didn't die, somehow separated from custodes and any vehiclular support on this ice world. Working with the Black Templars, Blood Angels, and Ultramarines. I guess it was a plot set in advance by Nurgle by having his undead remain buried beneath the snow in ambush, though they still needed to gather for the assault.
Could also just be pre heresy
@@michaelsorensen7567 Not really considering there's Black Templars around.
@@vadandrumist1670and Blood Ravens moreso I'd say, since they're all but confirmed to be a Thousand Sons successor. No amount of alternate timelines could create this. The Emperor would purge the Templars and Ravens. The Templars for worship, the Ravens for dangerous use of psionics and probably a myriad of other minor offences which would disgust him.
@plushie946 where does everyone get the idea that they are thousand sons. Blood ravens are clearly word bearer successors imo
Honestly this was so hard to take my eyes off. Please, do more 40k stuff. Loved it.
And this is why terrain is the most important aspect of any war. It looked like the Space Marines were going to lose a couple of times but once they got the high ground and a number of choke points it was over for the zombies.
GREAT VIDEO TY!
Btw it's a small thing but is there a way to make the counters permanently with a black background so we can see the numbers clearly all the time? a lot of the time it seemed transparent. Hope it's possible as I love to see the rate of kill ticks :D
Terrain and a commander to have them hold the line/order. Once their love was broken, not reinforcing to stop getting flanked. But let the sim provide entertainment
@@johnfahrenkrug8217 true
Pretty cool 😎 🧟♂️
What a Dark Day for the Imperium. The Emperor won a Pyrrhic Victory against the forces of chaos Zombie Army. Over 40k troops lost incouding thiusands of Space Marines. Many the emperor knew himself
I love the Death Korps aren't holding the line, they're charging!
Lets be honest, there wouldn't be a Space Marine casualty. No zombie is getting through that armor. It's only a matter of time. The SM's would drop dead of exhaustion first.
Yeah but they’d just take a quick nap before that happens
They took out so many Zoombies when they climbed that hill and can down on them, making several choke points that trapped them and turned into kill boxes/fatal funnels...just awsome!
No space marines were harmed while during the filming of this informative documentary.
Even Krieger’s survived the entire battle, nice!
"Soldiers, Form a fighting berm!"
"With What Sir?"
"Bodies"
1:00:32 That moment when you zoomed in on the last of those stranded Templars getting surrounded, the last 30 of them standing ground to a horde, surrounded, all covered in blood, knowing well they're all dead and just ripping and tearing, Marine to Marine in their last final stand...
...and then i saw this one Kriegsman in front living his best life... and his best death.
"We are going to build a wall and the zombies are going to pay for it!"
Интрига сохранялась почти до самого конца. Я доволен. :)
I hope the devs develops this game further, and/or improve this game for future releases. Here, the units are just trying to swing to each other, neglecting their combat discipline, formation, or basic communication between units. Much less expecting any hint of commands and map awareness.
In my observation, seemingly just moving on to each other by the closest possible path.
Not sure if such logic script patchable or had to be built from ground up, but it definitely would look more believable and even more awesome than it already is.
Also, imagine air superiority, while we're at it. Having AC130 doing flyby death from above, but limited to several salvoes until it had to refill ammo and fuels, or maybe GoT dragons.
Should be doable, but not saying it would be easy. Friendly fire should stay at OFF, tho. The physics codes required to achieve the condition where it can finally be turned ON quite possibly still way too demanding.
The also need a variety of weapons instead of just normal guns
@@tonyyul703 I'd prefer adding unit practicality first, based on their training or depiction in media and history.
Imagine Spartans automatically form phalanx formation when we group them together, covering each other. Wall of shields the entire horizon, thorned with pikes, pushing forward. Only switch to their sword when shields been breached for CQC melee brawl. And it won't just be one line of them doing it.
Or Rohirim cavalry actually smashing through foot soldiers. These guys don't stop their horse and swing their sword to each unit they encounter in their path. They swing it while also charging. Let's reduce their charging speed when it happens to imply collisions to make it believable.
Or Roman Elites actually commanding the units they're assigned to, with soldiers following their lead. Looking for the weakest link in the chain, and attack it. While also trying their hardest to maintain their number. Retreat a bit, if they have to.
Or the musket soldiers lining up for firing salvoes.
Or the special forces actually being special forces. These guys won't just stand there and shoot stuff.
Now ,that level of implied order and discipline, would be even more epic for a spectacle.
I'd even forgive their infinite ammo or simplified animation assets to cope with hardware if these feats can be displayed lol
But yes, when we could establish that aspect, then we finally add weapons variety.
@Jakaze_ yeah I'm also aware. Most probably due to either technical limitation or unrealistic deadline. There will always be constraints or strings attached...
Such is life
Sounds like you're describing Total War.
The fact you made the Emperor run away should net you an eternity of torture at the hands of the Dark Eldar. I say that as a filthy heretic.
This reminds me of the battle for Yonkers in the World War Z book. The way the bodies just pile up higher and higher.
I don't think that was Yonkers. Yonkers was a total disaster due to use of shock and awe and giving audio and video communication to most of the soldiers. I do remember later in the book they were out testing the new box formation and tactics, but ended up pulling a huge hoard which became their biggest victory.
The Emperor is gonna have a word with his "loyal" Custodes once he gets back to Holy Terra
Kind of what I imagine the death plagues invading a small hive city would look like. I like this. Missing some war crys from the lads but will let that slide. Maybe some reinactments of 40k wars could be good 👍
Me: "Blood Ravens with chainswords?"
**Realisation**
Me: "Oh, Black Templars covered in blood."
The emperor just chilling in the middle got me
Space Marine to a guard : to you this is the most memorable day of your life. For me, its Tuesday
I dont care what people say. These videos are better with your commentary. All the same, Incredible work as always! Truly amazing
"It is better to die for the emperor, than live for ones self."
"For imperium of man!"
"For the Golden Throne!"
"FOR
THE
EMPEROR!"
Having a Lazgun in a zombie apocalypse would be pretty amazing.
TO be fair, if there were that meny Astartes, they would literally run thru the zombies like a lawnmower to get to the emperor.
Blood Marines be like, Brother... BEST DAY EVER!
What's crazy is that in any other setting this would be the final climactic fight to decide the fate of the world. But in 40k a battle like this is just another Tuesday.
This was awesome! The initial two locations and the terrain made for a very interesting view of this battle!
Lore accurate representation of the imperium squashing a minor rebellion force.
I'm amazed some of those Cadians survived that siege... CADIA STANDS!
Saw the Death Korps of Krieg in there. Love the shovel boys. Simple as.
I'm was sad no guardsmen survived.. And then at the very end, there were some!
One thing extra, and this would have been beyond awesome... when the Death Corp leapt from their fort to join up with the Marines... you should have had Sabaton's "Attack of the Dead Men" start up. Other than that... loved it!
