    Agreed. I feel like it's one of the things that usually gets wrapped up in overplaying how miserable/grimderp things get. When it gets mentioned at all, The Machine Spirit is almost exclusively used to show that your tank will disobey you when you need it, that you need a nutjob on staff at all times to properly consecrate the oil, and that nobody knows how anything works. There's so much more to it, both in the big picture, and individual stories that just gets glossed over.

    The marine's relationship with the Land Raider feels very authentically human, given the profound sentimentality toward their horses (and other animals) which real soldiers have often historically displayed. It does perhaps feel a little TOO human for an emotionally stunted post-human astartes, but I enjoyed it too much to care.

    In my defence - he’s a blood angel. They appreciate beauty and tragedy like few others. That is my only defence. But marines are still human. Boil it all away and they should have layers other than revulsion and aggression. Camaraderie of Astartes is attested. That with his steed I felt no less important. Plus he’s mourning Baal and transferring a bit. :). thank for listening brother. ;).

    I completely relate to this video. During my Army career I was a vehicle commander for a Stryker ICV, and my driver and I would talk to it as if it had a machine spirit. I loved that Stryker, and when I became a squad leader I was lucky enough to keep it. For 6 years I spent nearly every day with her, and she kept me safe through two tours in Iraq. I'm getting choked up just thinking about her. Thank you Baldermort, this brought back a lot of great memories.

    I knew what the story would involve, before it was revealed to be a Land Raider. But still I wept. Because if I got it correct, the Land Raider self-activated, ran uncrewed into battle, and saved the lives of the Astartes captain and his men, before coaxing a Ork Battalion into her Troop Bay and vented her Plasma intakes within, destroying herself, and the entire Ork regiment. It's a touching story, and one that made me weep.

    Man... I totally get it. One of my tours in Iraq was spent almost entirely in a humvee. We did almost everything in that thing. Ate in it, slept in it, fought from it And then two weeks from the end of our tour we hit an IED. We had some concussions, some shrapnel but we were ok. The humvee on the other hand, the engine and front left wheel were blown all over the road. Felt like watching your house burn down.

    This was basically me as a kid when my mum got a new car. She'd had the same ultra-reliable Ford from before I was born until I was 9 years old before a lorry hit it and insurance declared that it was cheaper to pay a lump sum towards a new car than repair that one. I literally resented the next car we had, even though it was nicer, more comfortable, had more leg room and was generally better in every way. It was the car after that which I accepted, grudgingly at first - it had heated seats and it's hard to stay cold towards a car that literally warms you (especially when it's your freezing backside in the middle of winter).

    Freaking love Land Raiders! My favourite story tidbit concerns a Land Raider that was thought lost, blasted into an inland sea. Although it took hundreds of years it gradually crawled it's way back through the muck and mire at the bottom of the water, preserving its energy reserves just enough to slowly, so so slowly, creep it's way back on land. And it made it! Once it reached the shallows it had just enough gumption left to send out a signal that was picked up and eventually it was reunited with its chapter. Glorious!

    The Captain's helmet was red as he was thinking about his Land Raider? Fnar! 😁 I have a feeling that would be frowned upon, even in the Astartes. Just don't inspect the exhaust pipe! Thank you once again for a dramatic, emotional and above all humanising take. It's so easy to forget about the machine spirits except as a game mechanic, it's one of the parts of the lore that's so divorced from our own time.

That makes me understand the pain they go through when they lose a great machine. This made me cry and I do believe I’ve needed this. And the Tau call them savages and the Eldar call them primitive! This is why I love the Imperium! Thank you Brother Baldemort you show us what we do not see from the usual perspective.

    The comparison of a Land Raider to a dog hurt me emotionally a lot more than it should have, given that I play Space Wolves I have a Land Raider that I call 'Blackmanes Fury' as within the chapters lore the Iron Priests see the machine spirits of the chapters vehicles as children of the Iron Wolf and take special care to essentially feed the Land Raiders especially raw meat to rouse the machine spirits within, where they are later rewarded with ale and mead for particularly good kills. And so the idea I had was that the 'Blackmanes Fury' in my army always had a tendency of ramming into lines of enemy infantry, grinding them beneath her tracks as the twin heavy bolter guns down anyone who flees and the 4 lascannons strike at targets of opportunity. And so to encourage this behavior, the crew, at the requests to one of the Iron Priests, had claws mounted onto the sides at the front of the vehicles frame so when it rams into enemies it slices through them like a knife through butter, impaling flesh onto the blades. This has also given me more incentive to grab a Land Raider Crusader to give the 'Blackmanes Fury' an equally fearsome pack-sibling :)

    Loved the short story at the beginning mate. I think they're the best part of the videos to be honest. I own at least 7 of these beasts and a spartan assault tank to head them. In the 5th edition codex of the blood Angel's, I'd load them up with terminators and deep strike 3 into the rear of the enemy. Sometimes it went horribly wrong and the scatter dice would drop them back, or worse on to impassible terrain or the enemy (killing them outright), or dropping them and disgorging a minimum of 15 hungry terminators ready for blood. How I miss the fun of those games. Thanks Bodermort!
