The Emperor wills it, and we shall obey.

Ci Ci Ciaphas Cain, Hero of the Imperium!

Heh, listening to this gave me a story concept as I was thinking over some of the lore that I knew. An imperial citizen on a world freshly annexed by the Tau, a lowly tailor, is disgusted by his people's willingness to forsake the empreror and the Imperium and fashions himself a Commissar uniform and leads the citizenry to revolt. He's barely a soldier, but learns quickly from what he sees, and is able to use what limited oratory to inflame the dying faith in the Emperor in the people so that the Tau have to beat back the gue'la who are threatening the peace. This launches years of guerrilla tactics, terrorist action, and finally the Imperial Guard arrive to retake the world from the Tau. Our Tailor is now a seasoned veteran but a pale imitation of a true commissar, and that is made all-too clear when he encounters actual guardsmen who take him very seriously, and he is directed toward a Lord Commissar. Our tailor does not lie, and in a private room confesses to what he thinks is a treasonous act, imitating an imperial officer. The commissar grills him, and has several of his guerrillas interrogated to get the measure of our tailor. The Lord Commissar is impressed a mere tailor managed to inspire civilians to action, is pleased with his zeal, and that he has not embarrassed the title of Commissar but he keeps these thoughts private. Instead, he tells the tailor that if he wishes forgiveness, he must earn it by finishing what he started. He is to keep up his role as Commissar with a company of soldiers to retake the city. After several weeks, our tailor manages to do the impossible. He does take the city, though at the cost of losing an arm to the guns of Tau fire warriors. He did not flinch, or flee, having seen the Lord Commissar's face whenever fear approached him. IF he had tarnished the role the Lord Commissar had imposed upon him, our tailor knew what would happen. He would be slowly tortured to death. He knew he wasn't expected to take the city, merely make a dent in its defenses. yet, he lived and the city was in the hands of the Imperium. The tailor expected it to be over, he returned to the Lord Commissar and offered his cap and laspistol, expecting admonishment and oaths to never play an imperial officer ever again. Instead, the Lord Commissar grinned and told him that he was to be made governor of the city and to oversee reconstruction and training of new PDF troops as a 'junior officer Commissar.' This was his punishment. through the tailor's many actions he had gained the respect of the men, and played the part well. However now if our tailor ever was to slack in the role he had so brazenly adopted, he would be executed and replaced. Let this be a lesson to those who would impersonate the role of a Commissar: duty ends on your termination.

It makes it more immersive, I guess. On leadership, this style will make people do a job, but they will not do it gladly, and they will probably start plotting on how they can rid themselves of a Tyrant. I have found in my career that you can get people to do things better, and on time if you can get them to love you. One way to do that is basically; give out the job assignment, then NEVER bother them for the entire night. That and guilt trips, my Father was a Master of those. Make your people love you, make therm want to kill themselves if you say "you disappoint me". In that fashion, they'll conquer all in your name. P.S. ~ Starting at 22:52 where the Commissar shit-talks some servant of Chaos.....that speech was beautiful. The Commissar who said that knows how to inspire.

I don;t know only war. Was it an RPG? Now I love roleplaying, throwing a speech or monologue in every now and again for fun. Alas, I always GM, so its mostly the mustache twirling form. :)

@@baldermort it was. Made by fantasy flight games, before GW let their license expire with them. They made a bunch of 40k RPGs. One for the inquisition, another for deathwatch, a rogue trader one and if your feeling heretical, one that let's you be a servant of chaos, either a cultist or traitor astartes. Only war is for the imperial guard. It was very crunchy, but left enough room for roleplay. We went hard mode with it and made a penal regiment. Made our group feel like the A team though. Pulled off an infiltration into a rebel base and assassinated their leadership. Our GM ended it with an Ork waghh making planetfall. XD So we have something to look forward to if we pick it back up.

@@nightside100 that sounds awesome!!!!! I mean properly awesome!!!! You should get that going again, well if you want to do so. But that sounds great! :)

Reminds me of a real-world experience I had while in the military, except no body was executed... A unit messed up to the point, the Post Commander had to address that unit personally.... Let's just say, I'm glad I wasn't in that unit... I could feel and taste the "Ohh Shit" from across the post...

You know you've got too much zeal when your commissar has to reign you in. *Death Korps forever!*

*just finished painting my new commissar* Lord Commissar Thompson Duke. "The Hangman" of The Altimiri system.

A good commissar cares about the troops, doing the utmost to keep their morale up, and leading by example. A bad commissar will shoot a man in the back for sneezing and then court martial his commanding officer for not instilling proper discipline.

FEAR ME! BUT FALLOW! - Imperial Commissar.

Excellent intro. Holy sh!te that man is brutal and the epitome of what a Commissar is and should be.

Yep. DO not F**K with Commissars. Any of them. :) (I loved writing then voicing that intro. Just gold) Thanks for listening brother. :)

'This battle is lost! We must disengage!' 'Coward! Commissar, do your duty!' 'As The Emperor wills!' *•BLAMPH•* Battle for Cadia... business as usual. It was Tuesday.

gave me major goosebumps! fantastic execution on narrating.

I love your narrative style man, great video :)

GREAT STUFF PLEASE KEEP IT UP TY

This is your best video yet, the commissar was brought to life

I have never been so scared of Commisars before...WELL DONE!

This is still my favourite video on this channel

Splendid chaps!

Awesome video!

Man I love going back and rewatching your videos @baldermort

Still love that his legendary marksmanship is not praised for being able to hit a target at a specified range, but for the intervening rows of heads in between.

Every job sucks in the grim dark damn it So glad to have these videos playing to and from work everyday Sir Baldermort

Might I suggest a collaborative video with, say... the Templin Institution? The nature of their content is mostly that of generalized overviews of faction lore. I can't help but think that such an overview for anything 40k related has much to gain in sense of import, of much deserved gravitas, by having such a powerful voice as yours to drive each detail home.

Lol. Thanks Aksuna, but I think Templin are doing fine and would not be particularly interested with working with me due to this. :) Who knows. Maybe one day, a long way away. :)
