    Badab War is always great. Got some solid gym sessions in while listening to Arch's massive series on it. You've got heroes (few), villains (most people), space marines of chapters thst people like at each other's throats, orks, the Unhallowed Heart...
    The Carcharadons broke a planet.
    The Ad Mech threw part of a star.
    The Minotaurs wrecked everyone they met.
    The Inquisition did insane treachery.
    The High Lords of Terra were their standard corrupt selves.
    And Huron went on a Darth Vader arc without the final redemption.
    Something for everyone.

    Huron did nothing wrong. He repeatedly called for help, not just from the wider Imperium, but nearby chapters; only to be told NO at every turn. It's no wonder he stopped paying his tithe and stopped submitting his geneseed for purity checks, then finally out of desperation than anything else, turned to piracy and becoming renegades (although becoming a full on Chaos chapter, was a dumb decision on GDubbs part and should be disregarded!).
    Edited.

    Very interesting, absolutely unclear :D Dunno nothing about this piece of lore, so yeah. Some preamble would be lovely. Went to see if there are any books on Badab war and apparently you can read about it in Imperial Armour volumes 9 and 10. And its like 2.5k us dorra on amazon. yeah, no. I guess I'll look for some lore vids instead :D

    I just tuned in and am excited because lamenters will be mentioned. I hope... and it took 72 seconds to mention them. Yes, I like it.
    I absolutely love the Sisyphus Mugged analogy for how Wardens were treated. It was so funny, sad and frustrating that one just can't not mention how great it was.
    Technicality: it is not a matter of being an antithesis of Heroes Journey, but one the main actual ways it manifests. Huron was forced out of his "home" by the charge of guarding Maeltrom sector, he is plunged into the otherworld of fending off pirates understaffed and imperial bureoaucracy which transforms him, ultimately he returns to his home armed with that new him to bring the change to "home". Which he did, just not in a positive way. Fall is one of the character arcs after all. An example from fiction like that would be Vader from Star Wars. Or, to fit more with how Huron is seen here, Walter White from Breaking Bad. The Monomyth is intentionally designed as a term to be broad enough that it can contain pretty much every story.
    Ultimately the point is excellently made and builds on your previous works. There is a sense of utter helplessness in the story, that the story perfectly exemplifies the Grimness and darkness of the setting. Well done!

    As an American, I don't like the Badab War because I view it as a thinly veiled analogy for the Revolutionary War where the British win. I do think it would've made for a more realistic feeling setting for 40k, however.

      @@WhatareyouPaintingnow I think we may have had a misunderstanding.
      The American Revolutionary War occurred when the American colonies declared independence from the British Empire with the "Declaration of Independence" on July 4,1776 over taxes (amongst other things). We Americans will celebrate that on Thursday.
      Similarly, Huron declared independence from the Imperium of Man with the "Articles of Just Seccession" over taxes (among other things).
      The American Civil War was something completely different.
