Space marine ships require fewer crew than other imperial ships mainly through servitors. They are not designed for long fights instead meant to deliver troops to the planets surface.
you mean long engagements because they lack longer and powerful range guns? An Astartes Battlebarge would RIP any ship in melee broadside not counting the boarding actions. Battlebarges could take humongous damage from ground to orbital guns from planetary defenses which could destroy most imperial ships.
@@jurajsintaj6644 Astartes ships lacks long powerful range guns especially Lance Heavy Batteries of which Imperial Navy Ships has. Rather, they have a very power shorter range like Macro Energy Guns that acts like a Shotgun for ships. And yes, they rely more on Boarding Torpedoes and Teleporters for boarding actions also the reason why their ships are Heavily Armored.
@@jurajsintaj6644 that's the reason why Astartes ships won battles in melee combat, and also defeating a Necron Battleship that could easily destroy an entire Imperial Navy Fleet.
The art around the battlefleet is what originally attracted me to the hobby. Thank you for your work in this video! Follow up vid on Imperial Navy Ships and their roles would be greatly appreciated.
THIS was a bigger and better advertisement of the Sword class frigate than owlcat did. If such a vid were out 9 months ago, no one would have complained that we dont have a cruiser class in rogue trader.
They still upgunned the hell out of it without giving any in lore reason that made sense of why it can support them. Owlcat is full of shit In a lot of ways with that game while simultaneously providing an excellent authentic experience it's maddening honestly
The first half of this video is honestly making me want to stash a bunch of Escort ships in my fleets now for Battlefleet Gothic 2 now. Yes I am aware that I might have to replace them every few engagements if I'm not careful enough but the itch to put some Sword and Firestorm class ships in my fleets is getting bigger and bigger now
@@BliztDogeMost toyota Hilux trucks were destroyed during the heresy. Very few examples of them exist in the era Indomitus, and when used they are highly effective.
With respect to the Nova Cannons, leaving aside Relativity, a round traveling near the speed of light would take months to traverse a planetary system. That wasn't the best description of its capabilities.
Very interesting. I really never thought about how limited the Space Marines might be outside of their given role as shock troops, but this video really does give one pause for thought.
Anyway we can do a video on guardsmen related things, different type of weapons used by guardsmen, different guardsmen regiments, different rankings and jobs of a guardsmen, or different versions of vehicles. I think there is alot to talk about in terms or variety with guardsmen then space marines
Would love to hear more of fleets... Heard Guilliman had some navy combats under his belt. Would be interesting to hear more of Warhammer Navy battles. Don't think this part of warhammer gets enough love. Just out of curiosity what class is the void ship in Dark tide?
Would love to see deep dives into other factions units and wargear, but this time gonna ask if you'd do any of the Marine Melee armaments while the SM2 wave is still going.
Awesome rundown. The vessels of the 40k universe get largely forgotten despite the pc games. Im your average Sword enjoyer, I have 15 of the minis, it was such a good screener on the tabletop xD. I also have enough of a marine fleet to move half a chapter and a few of the eldar ships which i bought because the models were cool :p
If you want to get the True experience of 40k's space combat, Get Battle Fleet Gothic, armada 2. Great graphics, a good campaign, and is extremely cheap compared to other 40k games it only being $20 with a $10 chaos DLC. The game can also be modded if you want more Glorianas, battleships, and titans. I recommend the Skalgrim mod.
Big question: What are the canon-looking appendices we find on the rear end (but pointing forward) of a good portion of these ships ? (And yes full on Imperial Navy, Mecanicus or even 30k navy videos would be great!)
In terms of gloriana class battleships, each legion received at least one, however many were destroyed in the heresy or have been lost since. There are 3 confirmed to be in active service, Invincible Reason of the Dark Angels, the Eternal Crusader of the Black Templars, and the Macragge’s Honour of the Ultramarines. These along with the Imperial Fist’s enormous battlestation Phalanx, were likely kept in service with those chapters partly due to them becoming inseparable symbols of those legions/chapters and that it would be an insult to said chapters to take their flagships. Also the Nemisis Chapter after the heresy the year after the second founding was granted a Gloriana Class “Chronicle of Fire” captured from the word bearers, after it had been investigated by the inquisition, hinting that space marines possessing these vessels was not too taboo under guiliman’s initial reforms after the second founding.
I think there's some confusion with rules over reality, even the frigates in the navy are really big, the Sword Frigate is 1.6 kilometres long or 1600 meters or 5249 feet (for reference the Enterprise D from Star Trek is just under 0.65 kilometres or 641 meters or 2103 feet long) so the smaller could ships could DEFFINATELY hold more than just 1 squad of Space Marines, Otherwise this video was great
Wait but what about the one from Angels of Death battle barge? The Sword of Baal, if im not mistaken they fought almost without any shield after lost in the warp and look smaller in one episode when the drukhari attacked them
Great video! I’m doing a playthrough of Chaos Gate on my channel and have always wondered where strike cruisers (the baleful edict @14:51) fell on the hierarchy of ships available. Do all chapters have access to strike cruises and battle bardges?
what ive never seen anyone discuss is the interior sizes of the ships. they cant be small and claustrophobic, cause they have to fit space marines who are much larger than normal humans. so are they all built the same and are really large inside, or are imperial navy ships small inside? and if so, that means no space marine could go on one.
I'm not sure about the rare ship types, like Battle Barges, only appearing once and a while. Are we do imagine that they sit uselessly in port for long stretches of time, while the crew is on shore leave? In real life, at least one of the best ships is deployed somewhere at any given time.
You have it wrong for the size and classification of Strike Cruisers, besides that not a bad video. Although Space Marine Chapters do have access to not only Battle Barges, but Star Forts, Battleships, etc. A Gloriana is NEVER considered a Battle Barge btw. Also, they are not reinforced to be as tough as the Imperial Palace...
I don't think the ridiculous scale is properly shown. By saying that for example a Sword or Gladius "can" only carry a single squat of Space Marines make these escort class ships sound very tiny but they have crews of like 26000.

Bro, I literally just started working for the fleet of my custom space marine boys, and this dropped just in time, couldn’t have been more perfect.
Bro same
Imperial Navy and Necron Battlefleet videos would be dope

Puts a whole new perspective on that one mission from Space Marine 2

It's better to lose smaller ships more often, then to lose the bigger ships and take time and resources to remake even one of them.
U can with mods.
If your system can survive it. XD
my PC survive on 300% setting for Fleet size (in battle) and Supply (out battle) with skalgrims mod
while my Brain does not
A swarm of angry firestorm frigate escorts are not to be trifled with. Its like being chased by wasps.
Would a space marine drive a honda
yes
But what about a Toyota 🤔
@@BliztDoge That's for the guard

@@BliztDoge yes even lexus too
all good until we see Dark Angel carrying their broken planet pieces and made it into a fking Battle Barge *skull*
the legend is back congrats on 100k!! you deserve it and many more
Thank you!!
With respect to the Nova Cannons, leaving aside Relativity, a round traveling near the speed of light would take months to traverse a planetary system. That wasn't the best description of its capabilities.
Love this! Imperial Navy next? or Adeptus Mechanicus?
finally a video that explains this stuff!!!!
Yeah this guy (when he uploads) is one of my favorite 40K lore explainers aside from Weshammer.
@@MyDogDoingStuffIG same
Best 40k lore youtuber hands down
Astra Militalum when? I'm looking forward to.
Thanks for the lore ❤
It's on the list!
All spaceships pls❤
i second this
I third this
I forth this.
I fifth this
I sixth this
The void battle with the exalted near the beginning of the first nightlords book made the strike cruiser made favorite WH ship BY FAR.
Very interesting. I really never thought about how limited the Space Marines might be outside of their given role as shock troops, but this video really does give one pause for thought.
Would love to some Militarim stuff, and well, every other ship
On it!
Sick
I got into the Hobby when Relic was still being sold in stores, would have loved to have some of these to paint.
Great work.
I'd love to see a video on the Navis Imperialis ships
even the smallest vessels are size of star destroyers
That cutout of the interior of a macro cannon weapon bay hurt my soul. It's so... inefficient.
that was very interesting thx for uploading it.
1:56 aye yo that starwars deathstar vs a bunch of imperial ships is wiiiild 💀
3:14 SPACE ENGINEERS SCREENSHOT!!!!
AND AGAIN AT 8:47
I feel like the Gloriana deserves its own category on the merit of there being like… 10 of them left in existence.
Anyway we can do a video on guardsmen related things, different type of weapons used by guardsmen, different guardsmen regiments, different rankings and jobs of a guardsmen, or different versions of vehicles. I think there is alot to talk about in terms or variety with guardsmen then space marines
Is anyone else wondering why the magma bomb image at 13:40 is a leviathan Dreadnought grav flux bombard left arm? 😂
amazing video
keen for more
imperial guard pov :
the tyranids are taking over the planet : 💀
a batlle barge arrives : 😃
a battle barge arrives : ☠☠
I don't care what it is I'm glued to all of these videos .
I am really curious to a Imperial Navy video now!
Would love to hear more of fleets... Heard Guilliman had some navy combats under his belt. Would be interesting to hear more of Warhammer Navy battles. Don't think this part of warhammer gets enough love.
Just out of curiosity what class is the void ship in Dark tide?
Definetly need video from Marsian fleet and Navy fleet
Would love to see deep dives into other factions units and wargear, but this time gonna ask if you'd do any of the Marine Melee armaments while the SM2 wave is still going.
I loved the Astartes strike cruisers in BFG Armada.
Awesome rundown. The vessels of the 40k universe get largely forgotten despite the pc games.

Missed the Gloriana class. Only Chapters have them, totally count.
The Custodes have a few
The Imperial Navy had a Gloriana during the Great Crusade, the Amphion
Theres low double digit of those and they are not battle barges they are flat out battleship and armada anchors
Galactical church
Astra militarum weapons and vehicles
Yes! More on fleets!
I love it when that goblin just gets obliterated on the beginning

Making me want them as a Starsector mod
thats it im going to replay Battlefleet Gothic 2 again, thank you
Homework can wait
The emperor always comes first
Makes me think and wonder about 30k imperial ship classes that the mechanicum is no longer able build and assemble due to lost knowledge.
Not just unique but VERY unique.
This is about to be a great 20 minutes.
Big question: What are the canon-looking appendices we find on the rear end (but pointing forward) of a good portion of these ships ? (And yes full on Imperial Navy, Mecanicus or even 30k navy videos would be great!)
Thank you for saying the sentence at the begining 😂😂😢😊
Can you please do more about the Warhammer fleets

The thumbnail used a Gloriana Class Battleship in place of the Sword Class Frigate. Probably confusion regarding the wedge shaped prow
Damnit. Now Im back to wanting a Battlefleet Gothic 3 again.....
yes, another video to fuel my crippling warhammer lore addiction
Not the TTS for the exterminates footage. “ALRIGHT FIRE”
Maybe different chapters battle fleets? Like the Lamanters?
Ford-f150 themed baneblade
3:14 SPACE ENGINEERS YEEEEEEEY
4:17 Isn't Lance cannons just a big laser cannons? What's the difference between it and laser batteries?
Is litteraly still kilometres long, but is considered so small it can only hold a squad of marines.
Csm next please 😊
I think there's some confusion with rules over reality, even the frigates in the navy are really big, the Sword Frigate is 1.6 kilometres long or 1600 meters or 5249 feet (for reference the Enterprise D from Star Trek is just under 0.65 kilometres or 641 meters or 2103 feet long) so the smaller could ships could DEFFINATELY hold more than just 1 squad of Space Marines, Otherwise this video was great
Dark angels mentioned and no mention of “the rock”? Would love to have heard a little about chapter specifics in their fleet make up.
Cool.... No actual size description in the lore? If so, would have been pretty cool to include
I want a Battle-fleet Gothic Armada III
Am I now ready to play Battlefleet Gothic Armada?
2 kilometer long - still to small to carry more than a squad of space marines
Finally, some good fucking content. This shall make my dinner taste twice as good!
Wait but what about the one from Angels of Death battle barge? The Sword of Baal, if im not mistaken they fought almost without any shield after lost in the warp and look smaller in one episode when the drukhari attacked them
The Warhammer Community site say its a Strike Cruiser
@@marrvynswillames4975 ah i see, so it's an error in the show
Can you do a video of all the melee weapons in the warhammer 40k
Imperial fleet next ?
Do a Rogue trader starfleet...
Great video! I’m doing a playthrough of Chaos Gate on my channel and have always wondered where strike cruisers (the baleful edict @14:51) fell on the hierarchy of ships available.
Do all chapters have access to strike cruises and battle bardges?
Then there's the Tyranids Hive ship larger than battle barge.
Could do different varieties of the orks ships
dont worry if you forgot about the Navy because GW also forgot they existed.
Can we see all the chapter masters or the captains for all the space marines
So when will you talk about grand cruisers & battleships?
Since the imperial navy is mentioned will you do them next?
what ive never seen anyone discuss is the interior sizes of the ships. they cant be small and claustrophobic, cause they have to fit space marines who are much larger than normal humans.
so are they all built the same and are really large inside, or are imperial navy ships small inside? and if so, that means no space marine could go on one.
what about the followers of the Dark Gods?? they might have cool ships
if i may ask whats your favorite space marine legion?
I'm not sure about the rare ship types, like Battle Barges, only appearing once and a while. Are we do imagine that they sit uselessly in port for long stretches of time, while the crew is on shore leave? In real life, at least one of the best ships is deployed somewhere at any given time.

Maybe a normal navis fleet composition video 🧐
I feel like we don’t get many space battle stories
What does space ships displace? Empty space?
RIP Sword of Atreus 💀
Is that a space engineers screenshot at 8:50
Awesome but what style of ships does the Imperial Navy use?
What are some ships weapons and vehicles the imperial armies use?
Death to the false Emperor
-VIII-
p.s. How about, maybe, fleets af the legions. Their main and support ships and what happenned after the Horusy?
Do video of tau
Hey, aren’t you that guy with the Tesla channel?
