Dear Gentle listeners, This is a simple read through of the Vigilus Defiant scenario and confrontation. It has nothing in the way of visuals and is designed for hobbying support or potentially as a bedtime story. Hence it is designed to be relaxing. It is a type of video I would like feedback on. It does NOT herald a change in our overall style and presentation. It is a run I will do while I harbour more of tale telling abilities, as the amount of stories a week was getting a little tough to maintain and the concern of running out became a bit of a millstone that actually became a self fulfilling prophecy. So these will come out as and when, but will certainly not replace our usual bouncy and more aggressive style of videos. But do say if you feel it is worthwhile doing. But do know that 'I just want more stories' will mean I have to reduce videos as the present amount is not sustainable if I wish to gain the time to make our Friday/Saturday night videos what I wish them to be. Step by step of course. Rome was not built in a day after all. I sincerely and truly hope you enjoy this entry. Obligatory Patron link: www.patreon.com/join/3510517
Bless you brother Baldemort thank you once again for your valuable contribution and hard work. Looking forward to more narrative on the Legio Titanicus and your genius storycrafting bringing the lore to life like only you can.
Please do your stories. I've been really getting back into 40K for a while and your voice is a balm when insomnia strikes. There are several people like you who tell wonderful stories, but most of them are simply retelling the lore wear as your own stories fill out and expand so much in this vast universe. That said I love the way you present this information . It really helps those of us cannot afford the books etc with background and gives me ideas for some campaigns I want to run with my friends.
I love how battles in 40k can never be between just two factions, there’s always more contenders ready to fight. Like an imperial guard vs Dark Eldar battle escalates to a dawn of war level campaign in moments.
Well the Eldar need humanity to live but not to thrive or we will forever claim their place, tyranid feed on human so it need to eliminate it's rival which is chaos and to the orks, any fight is a good fight three ways or not. More factions just make the fight more fun for the orks
Vigilus the 40K royal rumble! Once again you have out done yourself as THE narrator of the Grim Dark, if you keep raising the bar we will need Storm Hawks to keep up!
Perhaps one of the most important campaign for the Imperium, and perhaps one of the highlights of the efficiency of the Primaris Space Marines. The mere fact that the campaign was fought by almost every single faction of the Galaxy, and vital importance to travel to the Dark Imperium. The Battle for this singular world even brought the attention of the Warmaster of Chaos to this place, but with great strength of our glorious Imperium we fought back all our enemies and secure this warp travel.
@@hurb3222 Okay, that's enough. I can bear the grimdark. I can endure all the hopelessness, the cruelty and all the pain. I can endure malicious gods and supposedly good-natured gods who still kill billions by not giving a fuck, by lying and by being willing to sacrifice your life for their own ends. But... plastic? Plastic makes Greta, also known as 'She who hungers for attention', cry. This needs to end, time for another crusade.
Brother Baldermort - By the intro alone I am already experiencing an intense feeling of gratitude. As I, along with many others in your comments, have already shared - a soothing voice on sleepless nights is part of what keeps us coming back. I haven't finished the video yet, as I'm writing this 10 minutes after you pinned your comment, so this is just based on our past conversations and shared experience as well as your concerns expressed in that pinned comment and in the opening. I will edit my comment with full feedback after I've finished watching. The more options you have available to you in terms of style and format, the less likely it is that you'll burn out. So whatever you can do to keep yourself engaged in your craft and satisfied with its quality sounds good to me.
Thank you brother. Do come back at the end and update me? It’s just a try to see if I can get more out and more of different styles - as you say, to prevent burnout. I do love doing this. I’d like to keep at it as long as possible and don’t want to get boring or lazy in the story elements? A huge fear of mine. :). Thank you.
Well, it may not be fast enough for everyone, but they are churning out some corkers. I can only hope that Cadia exploding means we get a whole new line of guard. Fingers crossed.
@@Baldermort if there's any time for the guard to get new toys it's now considering they are humanity's most numerous army's and the new piece of equipment would greatly benefit them On a side note they have released a 12-inch tall Cadian officer action figure made by green wolf Studios so I guess that sort of counts in a third-party kind of way
I always listen to your videos while trying to sleep because somehow your soothing voice calms my anxiety enough to let me rest. This one knocked me out in just about 5 minutes
Thank you Baldermort for all your videos! I am currently suffering from severe toothache and the only thing that can distract me from the pain, allowing me to sleep, are you videos!!!
Alas, I know the horror of toothache all too well. I elated I can help even a tiny bit. I really hope you can get to a specialist soon and get it resolved. Only earache or eye ache are worse. Toothache is a bane and causes me to go mental. Hold on! Sweet dreams if you can get off to sleep sir.
Ah, I think I could listen you read off boring cogitator files like a poor techpriest and never bore. You breath life into everything you narrate. You have brought thr 40k universe alive to me more than anyone else and for that I thank you.
ok this series are one of the best ! listen to all of them ! i have done many times ! and every time i am discovering new knowledge . well done lord Baldermort !
This is just what I was looking for! A bedtime story to wind down to. Not a negative but other videos require concentration and keep me up at night! Great!!!
Thank you Sir for your videos. They have aided me and my warriors of the Blood Angel's 2nd company recover from the Devestation of Baal and assist in the painting of much needed Primaris reinforcements. For the Emperor.. For Sanguinius!
I've really enjoyed this and would love more of this kind of content. Drawing focus to published lore that doesn't receive as much attention as it deserved is a worthy goal.
Picked a hell of a time to do this Uncle Baldy, about to start painting ten Tactical, five Assault, and five Devastator models. All built using Deathwatch legs to make them true-scale.
@@Baldermort a homebrew Chapter. Bolters and flamers for these silver warriors. Red pauldrons and blue eyes. "There is no honour in war, only victory and defeat.

You are as good as watching a movie ....... your readings paired with your voice and articulation could be among giants like audible.... and librivox..... so glad I found your channel....
You have excellent judgement B man. i personally love the idea of you narrating these campaigns as i own all these books but with my life getting busier these days i havent the time to just sit with a cup of tea and... read. Im sure all the gentle listeners out there will not begrudge you trying new things and not burning yourself out to meet demand of original tales. Keep up the great work! I really do appreciate what you do for us :)
I've just recently stumbled across your channel and have fallen in love. Your acting tallent is incredible, I have been brought to tears by the realism of your characters. - Sincerely, a gentle listener.
Daimon X aye. So new and so self contained that even you cooking find a quote. Phew. Once. But I’ll look forward to your next offerings. I swear you know ten times what I do. ;)
Hope you don’t mind if I mention a competitor, but you and oculus imperia are my favourite warhammer lore you tubers. Don’t think bad of me for having a ‘bit on the side’.
Excellent offering Sir It's good for you to vary your content so as not to burn out so to say Now I shall listen again tonight to help myself relax and doze off in the same way I've used your krieg video.
A quiet night, full belly, a hot cup and my dog on my lap. The sounds of Baldermort terrifying the world with tales of the grim dark. What more do I need?
Thank you for filling me in on the new lore. As an old head I'm out of the loop. I hope I didnt inadvertently insult you brother. With all the choices you are still number 1. Keep up the good work.
I just recently found your channel and I gotta say I love your work! I can see all the effort put in it and it's really helpful for falling asleep (which I have some difficulty of). Thank you!
You sir have my respect. The story with the child... having had my first baby so recently. It was such a powerful story, made the grim that much more dark.
@@Baldermort the style is perfect oh keeper of wisdom! :D Images on screen are good for shorter videos but for long narrative sessions I doubt anyone is going to pretend to look at the monitor the whole time ;)
Cristian Turbian that’s what I thought. The big things like Krieg etc, sure, but not these. But I can go back to heavier music if this style doesn’t go down well. Just trying new things. Gotta try. :). Thanks again brother Turbian. :)
I just realized something when I clicked this video. Making titles or names, are really not that hard, you just need to mix two or three words you find appealing and mix them from one another. Thanks for this enlightenment baldy, now I can finally name some of my characters and places in my books
I'd listen to all the gw books if you did them. Out of all the other people doing them I think you have the most fitting voice and definitely the most pleasant
This bitter Ecclesiarchy Guardsmen player could only look to this and say: "Indeed the Universe HATES Humanity. What? Surprised that a Ministorum Priest would say this? Yes, the Universe HATES Humanity. Not because of the threat of Chaos, for Chaos had the need to take half of the Imperium Legions for themselves. Not the Tyranids, for they need us for food and breeding. Not the Tau, for they need us for their protection. Not the Eldar, for they need us for their affairs. Not the Necrons, for they need us against Chaos. Not the Orks, for they see us as good sport. The Universe HATE Humanity for we are the only species that has the stakes against it since the beginning, for the Universe only gave us ONE.SINGLE.ORDER: Lay down and die. And what we did? We rose the middle finger back and told it to f*ck off, and leave us in peace. And since that day, the Universe took offense, and did its best to end us. And for sheer spite, we still rose the middle finger, and carried on living. Now, the Universe literaly throws EVERYTHING AT ONCE against us to garantee that we OBEY its commandment to us. And we still carry on raising the finger back. But the Universe does not understand that all that Humanity wants, more than glory, wealth, power and golden crowns, is JUST TO BE LEFT ALONE! WE WANT JUST TO LIVE IN PEACE AND QUIET! The greatest ambition of Humanity, in the end, is to have a BORING LIFE: born from loving parents, have a common childhood, be educated without concern or great worries, become adult, have a boring job, fall in love with a beautiful person who loves us back, have our own children and love them, carry on working until retirement, get old, see our children marry and having their own children, and die in our sleep surrounded by our loved ones. No great statues, no medals, no hymns in our name, no pilgrimage sites, no kingdoms or even a mere memory. THAT is our greatest ambition: a simple life in peace. But the Universe care? No. It hate us because it cannot conceive that our species would commit effort, resources and power for a mere life of peace and quiet. The Universe demands blood, death, pain and despair, because without it, it would become deaf with the silence, mad with the quiet, and restless with the peace. So it prod, and nag, and annoy us because we want peace and quiet, knowing that we would commit ourselves with extreme prejudice to achieve that. So the war carries on. And the Universe still carries on ordering us to lay down and die. We just want peace and quiet... It would be better for Horus to end this, so that the Universe would choke in its desire for sound and fury, and by this, understand that there are species who do not want to be something special or mighty, just a calm, simple life with some wonders here and there. Yet, here we are, forced to be heroes and lords and martyrs. We just want peace and quiet, nothing more..."
@@mattaffenit9898 the priest turns, look to you with bitterness and anger, and answers: "Prove me wrong, Marine. Prove me that in the end, you regret this existent of constant war, destruction and loss. Prove me that in the end, we Humans just fight for the sake of a boring life, but this Universe will simply refuse to accept because it needs this madness to carry on for its own twisted entertainment. Go on, I know that you know that I am right. And yes, I am loyal to Humanity, and I will loyally lay down my life for it, but do you think that I wanted this? That any Guardsmen wants this? That YOU wants this? If you do not want to answer, then sit tight, shut up, and do your job, and PRAY that, when the final moment comes, it is short and painless."
@@Jamhael1 "You? Hah. Only you can speak for yourself. But we're Wolves of Fenris. War is in our veins - glory in our genes. It is our nature, as deceit is the nature of the Lion's sons."
@@mattaffenit9898 "Well, sorry, Your Wolfiness, but not everybody in the Imperium lives like a raging barbarian who think that taking life for stupid notions of 'honor' or 'glory' or wants to have monuments or songs in their name, or even to be remembered, is the best in life. There are things more important and worthy to live than killing, Marine. But I think that you cannot grasp this, for you are indeed a killing machine, and nothing else."
@@Jamhael1 *Points with a sneer at paintings of the Blood Angels, Dark Angels, Black Templars, Death Korps, Maccabian Janissaries, Custodes, Thunder Warriors - and a few statues of Primarchs and the Emperor*
I am looking forward to the next few entries. But if I may request just one more entry. More specifically on the Blood Ravens. I can only imagine the gravitase you could give their story. But I am no more than just another loyal listener. With greetings from Germany
I have to say I listen to these when I am falling to sleep and it's very calming. Sadly I dont get any dreams of the battles or meeting legends of the 40k universe
Lord boldermort sir thanks your work has helped keep a man going a favour of you would create a playlist featuring the build to what ever is going to happen on abundance tertiarus (excuse the spelling) because I have been hypothesized by all the tid bits you have put out, thanks for your great work
You’ve always been humble as well as confident. GW should feel thrilled, that a fan on your caliber do them justice... I’m the guy that uses these narratives as bedtime stories 🤤 Warhammer40k is rich in lore. Keep playin’ Gamer.😎
Peter Svendborg oh, no no. We’re all brothers here. The honour is mine. The only time I get shorty and banhammer is when people are being pointlessly nasty. And even then they can just send me a message though Facebook or email and tell to unblock them as they had a bad day. We all have them. It’s our site. Not mine. As stated, the honour is my brother. Thank you joining us on the guides. :)
I love the idea of you presenting the metaplot scenarios. It's a highly enjoyable way to keep current. My only issue with it is that GW isn't cutting you a check for doing it. My dream: every rulebook comes with a code you redeem on the website. It lets you access the ebook version and audio excerpts read by Baldermort.
Dear Gentle listeners,
This is a simple read through of the Vigilus Defiant scenario and confrontation.
It has nothing in the way of visuals and is designed for hobbying support or potentially as a bedtime story. Hence it is designed to be relaxing.
It is a type of video I would like feedback on. It does NOT herald a change in our overall style and presentation. It is a run I will do while I harbour more of tale telling abilities, as the amount of stories a week was getting a little tough to maintain and the concern of running out became a bit of a millstone that actually became a self fulfilling prophecy.
So these will come out as and when, but will certainly not replace our usual bouncy and more aggressive style of videos.
But do say if you feel it is worthwhile doing. But do know that 'I just want more stories' will mean I have to reduce videos as the present amount is not sustainable if I wish to gain the time to make our Friday/Saturday night videos what I wish them to be. Step by step of course. Rome was not built in a day after all.
I sincerely and truly hope you enjoy this entry.

What? Surprised that a Ministorum Priest would say this?
Yes, the Universe HATES Humanity.
Not because of the threat of Chaos, for Chaos had the need to take half of the Imperium Legions for themselves.
Not the Tyranids, for they need us for food and breeding.
Not the Tau, for they need us for their protection.
Not the Eldar, for they need us for their affairs.
Not the Necrons, for they need us against Chaos.
Not the Orks, for they see us as good sport.
The Universe HATE Humanity for we are the only species that has the stakes against it since the beginning, for the Universe only gave us ONE.SINGLE.ORDER:
Lay down and die.
And what we did?
We rose the middle finger back and told it to f*ck off, and leave us in peace.
And since that day, the Universe took offense, and did its best to end us.
And for sheer spite, we still rose the middle finger, and carried on living.
Now, the Universe literaly throws EVERYTHING AT ONCE against us to garantee that we OBEY its commandment to us.
And we still carry on raising the finger back.
But the Universe does not understand that all that Humanity wants, more than glory, wealth, power and golden crowns, is JUST TO BE LEFT ALONE! WE WANT JUST TO LIVE IN PEACE AND QUIET!
The greatest ambition of Humanity, in the end, is to have a BORING LIFE: born from loving parents, have a common childhood, be educated without concern or great worries, become adult, have a boring job, fall in love with a beautiful person who loves us back, have our own children and love them, carry on working until retirement, get old, see our children marry and having their own children, and die in our sleep surrounded by our loved ones.
No great statues, no medals, no hymns in our name, no pilgrimage sites, no kingdoms or even a mere memory.
THAT is our greatest ambition: a simple life in peace.
But the Universe care? No.
It hate us because it cannot conceive that our species would commit effort, resources and power for a mere life of peace and quiet.
The Universe demands blood, death, pain and despair, because without it, it would become deaf with the silence, mad with the quiet, and restless with the peace.
So it prod, and nag, and annoy us because we want peace and quiet, knowing that we would commit ourselves with extreme prejudice to achieve that.
So the war carries on. And the Universe still carries on ordering us to lay down and die.
We just want peace and quiet...
It would be better for Horus to end this, so that the Universe would choke in its desire for sound and fury, and by this, understand that there are species who do not want to be something special or mighty, just a calm, simple life with some wonders here and there.
Yet, here we are, forced to be heroes and lords and martyrs.
We just want peace and quiet, nothing more..."
*Coughs in Fenrisian*
"Are ye... sure of that, priest?"
@@mattaffenit9898 the priest turns, look to you with bitterness and anger, and answers:
"Prove me wrong, Marine. Prove me that in the end, you regret this existent of constant war, destruction and loss.
Prove me that in the end, we Humans just fight for the sake of a boring life, but this Universe will simply refuse to accept because it needs this madness to carry on for its own twisted entertainment.
Go on, I know that you know that I am right.
And yes, I am loyal to Humanity, and I will loyally lay down my life for it, but do you think that I wanted this?
That any Guardsmen wants this? That YOU wants this?
If you do not want to answer, then sit tight, shut up, and do your job, and PRAY that, when the final moment comes, it is short and painless."

"You? Hah. Only you can speak for yourself. But we're Wolves of Fenris. War is in our veins - glory in our genes. It is our nature, as deceit is the nature of the Lion's sons."
@@mattaffenit9898 "Well, sorry, Your Wolfiness, but not everybody in the Imperium lives like a raging barbarian who think that taking life for stupid notions of 'honor' or 'glory' or wants to have monuments or songs in their name, or even to be remembered, is the best in life.
There are things more important and worthy to live than killing, Marine. But I think that you cannot grasp this, for you are indeed a killing machine, and nothing else."

I am looking forward to the next few entries.
But if I may request just one more entry.
More specifically on the Blood Ravens.
I can only imagine the gravitase you could give their story.
But I am no more than just another loyal listener.
With greetings from Germany
Not a Panther they are on the lost brother. We WILL get to them. Sorry for the wait.
Waves from Blighty. ;)
@@Baldermort I would wait melania for a video of yours.
They are worth every second.
Another Baldermort video.
It's a good day.
I love your content so much
I have to say I listen to these when I am falling to sleep and it's very calming. Sadly I dont get any dreams of the battles or meeting legends of the 40k universe
Can't wait till you start doing some more long books
perfect way to go to sleep listening to it
Lord boldermort sir thanks your work has helped keep a man going a favour of you would create a playlist featuring the build to what ever is going to happen on abundance tertiarus (excuse the spelling) because I have been hypothesized by all the tid bits you have put out, thanks for your great work
Working on that for the relaunch. It will be coming. Sorry its not up just yet.
Thank you very much can't wait to hear more
If are Surrounded by enemies you aren't Paranoid, your just Cautious!
You’ve always been humble as well as confident. GW should feel thrilled, that a fan on your caliber do them justice...
I’m the guy that uses these narratives as bedtime stories 🤤
Warhammer40k is rich in lore.
Keep playin’ Gamer.😎
My cat drinks fiji water everyday, who let these peasants get close to me!?! GUARDS SEIZE THEM!
When you make another account to like again 🤷🏻♂️🔥another amazing tale.
You truly do the emperors work!
Fuck yea, baldermort! I always listen to Lore to help with my pseudo-insomnia, i live for this stuff.
Insomnia is a scourge. I experience it myself regularly. Damned if I couldn;t at least try to help out wit that in some small way.
@@Baldermort mate, besides the honour of you commenting, its been pure bliss finding your channel
Peter Svendborg oh, no no. We’re all brothers here. The honour is mine. The only time I get shorty and banhammer is when people are being pointlessly nasty. And even then they can just send me a message though Facebook or email and tell to unblock them as they had a bad day. We all have them. It’s our site. Not mine. As stated, the honour is my brother. Thank you joining us on the guides. :)
Fantastic, been waiting for this lore, did not buy the scenario pack as it was outdated by the time I restarted 40K and money was focused on figures.
I love the idea of you presenting the metaplot scenarios. It's a highly enjoyable way to keep current. My only issue with it is that GW isn't cutting you a check for doing it.
My dream: every rulebook comes with a code you redeem on the website. It lets you access the ebook version and audio excerpts read by Baldermort.
you know you are making a splash ole baldy when this videos 7 minutes old and im not even close to first here.
Why am I only looking in to this series now? Because I'm an idiot lol however, there are another 2 to go.... Excited.
I appreciate that you pronounce Cicatrix with a hard "C". Very Roman
It’s not popular. But I don’t care. Thanks brother Believer. :)
