Strengths to take into account: 1) Layered Void Shields - 40K ships have layered shields, with each layer regenerating independently, and fast to boot.For good ships, a layer can regenerate within a minute or even less. If you don't break trough the 7th layer before the 1st regenerates, you're back to square 1.This makes these ships VERY hard to kill. 2) Officer Experience - in a universe of only war, Imperial ship officers have vast comba experience against a vas array of enemies with different technologies and tactics. Generals and admirals can also get rejuvenant treatments, meaning that that can easily be far older than any normal human. 3) Weapon variety - 40K ships are generally not amed with just a single type of weapon, but a vast array of all kinds of weapons. Kinetics, missiles, lasers, plasma, microwave and more extotic weapons can all be found on a single ship, meaning that even if the enemy has shielding or armor resistant to one kind of damage, it won't help them much. 4) RAMMING - 40K ships are all built to ram if necessary. 5) NOVA CANNONS - Capable of crippling or destroying several ships at once. 6) Manufactorum ships - Adeptus Mechanicus ships that are capable of producing everything a crusading fleet needs on the spot, making the logistics nightmare of war traval almost irrelevant.

5:50 one of the problems is that the Imperium of man is at any point engaging in hundreds of various conflicts with xenos, chaos or rebels, and insurrectionists , anything at any one time. So in order to maintain massive Garrison forces or fleets could deprive vital resources from a battle zone for no reason resulting in more losses. The Imperium is just so incredibly massive in scope they can't afford that on the off-chance the eye of terror spits out of chaos fleet to keep valuable forces there for possibly no reason. Hundreds of years can go in between fights and incursions in a region so maintaining a massive fleet there would be a huge waste of necessary resources. This is why the emperor sought to make an improved webway project in order to allow the human empire to move troops and fleets across the Galaxy in moments rather than use the warp but of course the Horus heresy interrupted that.

To be fair, press gangs can be an advantage some times. I remember reading one story about a space frigate captain, a Lucky Jack Aubrius, who was being hounded by the Adeptus Arbites for alleged piracy. After weeks of chase, the law finally cornered him on the docks. Sadly, it was the captain's ship's dock, so his crew just press ganged the arbites and they were never heard from again.

On #6: the Tempestus Scions fill the role of elite crew members within the navy. They are elite, well armed and well armored soldiers who are trained in void combat and used in boarding actions. They follow their orders fanatically, and on occasion fight alongside the Imperial Guard as storm troopers. By the way, will you talk about the fighters the Imperium uses, or will save them for a video specifically for fighters?

*Makes the sign of the Aquila over his heart* Never forget Cadia. Although I should also point out that in the lore, all Imperial Militrary units (including the Holy Astartes) are designed to be strong in some fields and so very weak in a few other areas. According to the lore this is so that if the unit goes heretic, units can be called in that are strong to the heretic's weaknesses. For example, an Imperial Guard platoon falls to choas, send in a Leman Russ tank formation (although having a formation of multiples of the Primarch Leman Russ would be OP).

#1 Can't blame the universe mechanics as a flaw. Besides a proper maintained Geller field does make warp travel comparatively safe for the most part. #2 Explaining the intricacies of Imperial bureaucracy is pretty boring so the various authors who have written in the 40K universe tend to sweep it aside. AS far as the command sturcture goes it is pretty simple, captains answer to the fleet command. The fleet commander answers to sector command and sector command answers to segmentum. Chain of command seems pretty clear to me. #3 eh thats accurate. #4 fair point. #5 Battleships get a lot of attention, but the fact is the Imperial navy is made up of countless cruisers, escorts, frigates, destroyers etc. #6 The majority of the tasks aboard a ship are menial and are overseen by the various officers who do know what they doing. you don't need to know how to navigate the stars if your job is just to load multi-tonne shells into a marco cannon. #7 Man power is something the Imperium is not short of and if you do the crime you do the time until you pretty much die. There may be rare exceptions that a prisoner may survive his time and become a rating though. As for mutiny thats just laughable. The prisoners are kept under a strict watch and the only chance a prisoner might have at mutiny would be in the event the ship was rendered derelict and only as long as it took the navy to reclaim it or the enemy to board it, if they cared too. #8 Which is why the navy quarantines any hulks that linger in a system ensuring that no one gets on or off a hulk unless its a Space Marine detachment who are feeling board and looking for something to do. #9 They seem to do a decent job of identifying and meeting most threats and being vague about the effectiveness of the intelligence gathering abilities does not make for a compelling reason. The Ordos Xenos also does a decent job of identifying alien threats and has linguists in their ranks. #10 You don't get to be Grand Admiral if you don't know the composition of the fleets under your command and those of nearby sectors you can call upon. Also did you just suggest that the Cadia fleets have veteran conscripts ???

the imperial navy does have specific ship classifications though, so not understanding the ships might not be quite as bad as u may think, also there based on lactation meaning that the ships will be suited to the requirements of that area and if a lord high admiral orders the admiral of one of those fleets to do something in that area, the admiral of the fleet of that area will have a good understanding of not only his fleet but how best to use it in the situation

Inquisitor you know you had to do it to em

You forget, the Imperial navy is a military force not a policing one. They need the Battleships for major threats. The various PDFs of inhabited worlds handle policing in space.

There are some disadvantages which are either not disadvantages inherent to Imperial Navy, but are problems caused by their enemies, or are total nonsense 1. The Warp - Warp is only dangerous because of the Chaos, you may as well list as weakness of the SW navy that any superweapon they build gets inevitably destroyed before it does much of anything. 2. Spacehulks - Similar to 1. those are dangerous because of the enemies that reside in them. 3. Battleships - No Battleships are absolute beasts and are not inefficient use of resources, also they may be slow and cumbersome by 40k standards, but are still much faster and more agile than something like Star Destroyer. 4. Inteligence - 40k inteligence gathering is actually extremely good, but so is their and their enemies counter-inteligence. They can rip out their enemies memories and have casual access to future precognition. Again the previously listed Galactic Empire is much worse in this area.

Most of these are just about what a harsh setting 40k really is. It's to the Imperium Navy's credit that it holds up against such a variety of threats. Is the existence of Space Hulks really a flaw of the navy?

Thanks for the video!! :)

If you are looking for 10 cons/flaws of Imperial navy, i will give you much better: 1) The ability to build the biggest and best ship was lost, (and in some cases was never there). 2) Imperial navy tactics does not show awareness about that. I mean, the best and biggest warships - the battleships are used for line of battle for simple material grinding of enemy. If i had such problem, i would rearm most, close to all of said battleship with starfighters, or extremely long range armament, or extremely fast engines, and use for the battleline the biggest ship i can still produce, in a bigger numbers if neccessary. 3) There is extremely limited technological (and because of it even tactical) progress. 4) Need for rare and hard-to-train, impossible to train onboard, specialized psykers for navigation in FTL - Navis nobilae and even FTL comunication - Astropath chorus. 5) Because of general lack of trust towards the AI, there are no really "smart" torpedoes, or missiles in Imperial Navy. No "Fire and forget", mostly only "aim, fire, and pray for the best" dumbfire missiles. 6) Because of the dimmensions of ships, the ships are extremely costly resource-wise. Even escorts, light cruisers and cruisers, embody YEARS, or tens of years of WHOLE planetary production of metal materials. In combat, that can vanish in mere seconds. 7) Because of technological state of the imperium, no-one properly understands the gellar fields (the macguffin, wich protects the crew from the demonic incrusion onboard in warp), therefore it is hard to say, if the next FTL travel will be the last one, or not. 8) Because of imperial faith, some of the missions of navy are tacticaly and strategicaly needless (or idiotic), just to protect some "saint nobodys bones" from the enemies. 9) Only really versed personnell onboard of the ships are the mechanicus techpriests (and their higher ranks), who does not TEACH in it even each other, less so normal people, wich means, of the great number of the crew, only small portion does have real technical expertise, to repair, or even participate on repairs of vital systems. 10) The rank for each officer can be purchased, when the candidate comes from privilige and do not want to loose time in lower ranks. Sadly, that sometimes means, the latter officer do not have skills, experiences, gut, or overall attitude, to serve in that rank. 11) difference in living conditions for crew onboard is immesurable. The ratings sleap on flee infested mattress on the floor, wich is sharet with opposite shift(s) personnel and one bucket (toilet) for 10 people. The admirals are known to be acompanied by their persnnal harems and hundrets of manservants. 12) Existence of political officers onboard, who may, and even is expected to execute crew (including captains and higher ranks) for "cowardice". If the captain makes strategic retreat, and does ot presuade the bridge crew, that it will help with winning the engagement, he may end with a bullethole in the back of his head. 13) Wrong ussage of rogue traders since great crussade. - during GC, the RTs were kinda pathfinders for the bigger fleats. But when the GC ended, they did not have SOMEONE, to whom report their findings, from wich source could be said information used, when said region is again a target for imperial crusade, or bigger naval movements. there may be more, but i belive, you did catch the main idea.

Remember kids the high way to he'll is the fastest highway there is

In all honesty, I feel like the majority of these flaws are quite solid. There was one flaw that I thought you should have added (and that was the degradation of technology and equipment, forcing the Imperial Navy to even require slaves labor force in the first place), but besides that I think it was a good video. I like that we are avoiding the "who has the biggest stick" arguments, and are focusing more on "who swings it better".

It also states that the gun crew on the Star Destroyers are shooting down all the asteroids they can see and the ones slipped through regularly hit the Star Destroyer shields. Not saying that they are stronger than IoM cruisers, just saying they are not made of paper.

The space hulks should've been tacked onto the warp flaw: those things only exist because of the Imperium's less-than-safe method of warp travel, as every time their protection fails and a ship is lost en-route they inadvertently create space hulks or add to existing ones.

@@MrEvan312 I question the Warp being a Navy flaw as well. It's really more of a fundamental flaw of the universe than of the Navy. Claiming something that doesn't actually have anything to do directly with their ships as a flaw is absurd. It's like saying the fact that the laws of physics don't allow people to fly by flapping their arms is a flaw of humans. Patently ridiculous.

@@ZZMonkeysUncleZZ Well the Warp itself is not a flaw, it's the Navy's (and the Imperium at large) declining and relatively unreliable technology which cannot always protect them in transit. It's a shame that humanity almost got access to the Webway, thanks MAGNUS.

Found a flaw in your lore. Imperial battleships. all wrong. a lunar class cruiser is 5km long with 95k crew... thats a cruiser and canon. you listed a battleship as a cruiser.

Despite all their problems, let's face it. What's 25000 isds gonna do against literally millions of Imperial of man battleships.

@@GenerationFilms You're welcome :) Oh, and if I may make a request: could you at some point go more in-depth into the Humanity First philosophy? Is there a hierarchy of species beneath humans (i.e. are more humanoid species better than, say, xenomorphs)? I had previously requested this on the Generation Tech channel, specifically about the myriad species in Star Wars, although the placements of other species from other franchises would be valuable. In addition, what are your thoughts on the octopuses and other cephalopods? I mean, they can change colour and camoflauge, and there are octopus species which can even crawl on land, and considering a popular Japanese view of tentacles, I would surely imagine that octopuses are a greater threat to us than the sex predator bottlenose dolphins could be.

Mutiny? I can’t hear you over the yelling of the thousands of commissars I recruited

For points 6 that's the whole point, is to limit the navy to only void battle and the guard for land. Back in the days of the Imperial Army things were better. But then Hersey happened. And also point 8, the Navy doesn't really deal with space hulk. It better to let space marines board it. Point 10, I point to the Lunar class cruiser

Flaws with the glorious and flawless Imperial Navy?! HERESY! *BLAM!*

great video. To counter your argument in the defense of battleships, the simple size and multitude of enemy ships in 40k has made the battleships a crustal part of the battle field. In the war against the small and fast fleets of the tau they were nearly unstoppable with their thick armor and massive weapons allowing them to plow through enemy picket lines, often preferring to drop out of the warp and smash whole fleets in broadsiding and porting action. While in the wars with chaos space hulks , Ork rocks, Tyrinde bio ship the size of moons, and Eldar craft worlds you will need a really big and sturdy ship that can hold the line better then a frigate and punch better then a cruiser if you don't want to meet the Emperor after a quick dip in the void. or to quot from Burt Gummer of Tremors 2: Aftershocks "When you need it, and don't have it, you sing a different tune"

Good timing on this video considering BFGA2 open beta is happening right now

It's probably not gonna be relevant but would love you to cover the king ships of the word bearers

flaws? WE DON'T EVEN REMEMBER HOW THESE THINGS WORK!

Ahm, what do you mean by saying that crew members are untrained? The crew, or rather, population, of an imperial vessel is made up of people who literally live there, the ship is their entire world. Indeed, it is entirely common to see a crew who has been in that ship for dozens of generations, if the ship is old enough (which tbh a 5 centuries old ship is considered brand new in the Imperium, and crews are recruited when the ship is finished building)

*The War Eternal!*

#7: using manpower tactics that humanity realized was stupid over 41,000 years before Cadia fell. The Emperor knew this was stupid, he was there in person to see the dominant forces logically figure out how stupid it was to have crews made up of slaves, the Imperium has really bastardized the Emperor's visi- Who the hell is banging on my door at this hour?

If humanity could achieve faster than light travel without entering the warp. It would be a huge boon to the imperium. Plus if the imperium could recreate the necron anti warp technology that would help out a lot.

Using mutiny and bad moral as flaw for the imperium doesn't seem right. If one of the other faktions had too deal with the enemy of the imperium they wouldn't Act different or would be even worse.

I laughed so hard about the Battleship part, the disadvantages you mentioned is EXACTLY the problem with Battleships, they are high cost in resources, man power, are big and slow and nigh unstoppable bring with them high armour and firepower. If you want something that is a little less of everything then you are thinking of the Grand Cruiser (which comes just under battleships, if you want to keep the firepower part, reduce armour, silhouette, cost, man power and speed then you are thinking of battle cruisers.

I'm going to need two bolters for this Heresy!
