100% chance of this guy's next requisition order from the Departmento Munitorum being rejected for slandering them

20:56 Here's the excerpt for anyone curious. It's always crazy when 40k dips into real world history. It's from Dan Abnett's Pariah. ‘Let me show you this,’ he insisted, before I left. A trio of small, beige items came out of a cabinet and were laid out on a cloth. They had been white once, but age had darkened them like bone. Their surfaces were worn, but I could still make out the trace of silver on the engine bells, and the red markings along the fuselage. ‘Toys?’ I said. He nodded. ‘Playthings. Models made for a child’s amusement.’ ‘They are of weapon rockets? Missiles?’ ‘Rockets,’ he said. ‘For spaceflight. Don’t look so surprised, Mamzel Raeside. The first steps from Terra were said to have been taken using chemical rockets.’ ‘I am aware of history, sir, even though the detail of the oldest eras is lost in the mists. But really? Vehicles this crude?’ He smiled again. ‘I do not think they ever flew,’ he said. ‘I think these are simplified models of possible machines. A primitive idea of flight. But I show them to you because of their age. Your employer is very fond of the oldest things.’ ‘How old?’ I asked. ‘It can only be estimated,’ he said. ‘They pre-date the ages of Strife and Technology. I think they come from the Pre-System Age, from the first millennium of the Age of Terra.’ ‘What? Thirty-eight or thirty-nine thousand years ago?’ ‘Perhaps. Vessels like this first took our species into the unknown,’ he said. ‘They first took us Blackwards. The family name behind this business comes from that outward urge.’ ‘I think my employer will appreciate these,’ I said. ‘What price do you ask?’ ‘I will write it down,’ he said. ‘And the markings on the side of the rocket ships,’ I asked. ‘The letters in red? What does C.C.C.P. mean?’ ‘No one knows that,’ he said. ‘No one remembers any more.’

That's a good one. And absolutely amazing that those toys survived 39k years, and that there's still people that even remember that a Pre-System era even exist, when the Dark Age of Tech alone is practically myth and legend. And in terms of language drift and how Gothic works compared to contemporary English (we hear them speak english but they should be speaking a very strange language, honestly), it's a minor miracle that they can recognize the letters on the side.

@@KalebfenoirThat's why I want to believe that the "toy rockets" are actually highly accurate scale models, but the concept of spacecraft in 40k is so far removed from our own that they can only imagine these models as caricatures as opposed to actual representations. As for "pre-system" era; for anyone knowledgeable enough, Terra being the birthplace of humanity is relatively common knowledge, couple that with the Imperial Creed's dogma that it's humanity's divine right to conquer the galaxy implies the fact that humanity didn't always inhabit the stars is an established concept. So at bare minimum a number of 40k humans would know that humanity was once confined to Holy Terra (aka "Age of Terra"), but the exact details of our initial expansion would be largely unknown. As for recognizing the letters, almost all 40k art depicts humans using latin script (and to some extent greek script), as well as both roman and arabic numerals. So unless we interpret all these depictions simply as translations for the audience's convenience, we'll just have to assume that these writing and number systems have indeed survived the test of time to some degree.

@@Medved725I think you might forget how many wars Terra went through during the fall of the Dark Age of Technology. The fact there's literally ANYTHING left over from that period, let alone anything older, is amazing. Also, think of how plastic degrades over time. These fragile little rocket toys, made of plastic and maybe bits of metal in typical 1970-80s style, are still there 39k years later. They must be as fragile as spun sugar. But the care that their owners have for them, to even manage to maintain the stickers and paint on the sides? Amazing. I'm pretty sure the Gothic we read in games and on machines and stuff is 'translated' for our benefit. Gothic is supposed to have been this far-distant blend of current languages, so it might be a distorted mix of english, russian, chinese, japanese, spanish, and more... all run through a grinder and spit out the other end. Accents might still exist, because colony worlds might have have come from varied groups OR solo groups that wanted to 'preserve cultural identity', but Gothic itself is like what English is now; a hodgepodge of words and phrases taken from other languages to form one. Done for longer than current english has ever existed. I dread the day when I read of someone in 40k who studies ancient languages, and brings up terms from OUR current internet culture, but without the background to understand them. LOL. I'll be laughing so hard and cringing when it's deliberately used improperly by the author through the character. Like if 'Yeet' was revived as a term for throwing, but without knowledge of where it came from.

Even on Hive worlds, situations are not always the same for everyone. On Alecto (the setting for the Warhammer Crime Serie), life is kinda similar to Night City in Cyberpunk.

But at the same time they are impoverished much like IRL lower classes, and the horror of servitors is so mundane nobody actually see them as anything but tools But it's not to the point of grimderpness, yes lives are cheap and yes you can lose your life to some random gangers who wants your pocket money but the same is true IRL and the chances are still fairly low enough that it probably won't happen to you personally regardless.

I guess GW sticked with Cadians being involved in literal everything, probably because they looked the coolest and the normal looking ones, or more like the ones we can relate to the most since they looked familiar, when compared to the Guard Regiments that looked like Commanche warriors, Aztecs and what not

The thing about Primaris Marines is that a lot of Space Marines players wanted GW to put out lore-accurate Space Marine models, but probably expected them to just be bigger and tougher Marines with their existing units intact (Tactical Squads, Devastator Squads, Assault Squads, etc.) and then learned that they wouldn't be able to use these new models in that same way, as GW had come up with a lore reason why the new Space Marines were bigger and stronger than their predecessors, effectively upending the entire faction. The faction that I slept on the most was actually all of Chaos. I didn't think that demons and sorcery really had any place in a sci-fi setting, and all the legions just seemed grossly incompetent and non-threatening. For all of Abaddon's crowing about how he was this supreme leader anointed by all four gods of Chaos, he just lost time after time after time for 20 years of real time like the villain of a Saturday morning cartoon, and he and the Black Legion were portrayed as the greatest danger to the Imperium for so long without giving any real indication that he could conquer his way out of a wet paper bag. It wasn't until my local gaming group started picking put Chaos gods and I was left with Slaanesh that I really began to look at the Emperor's Children as being anything more than pathetic layabouts addled by sex, drugs, and rock & roll. My opinion of them really changed when I read Fulgrim and suddenly found the legion tragic and compelling, and now I can't wait for them to get a new codex so that I can finally find out what they've been up to all this time.

I gotta say, I really liked the fact that when Omegan asked “you intend to keep me in the shadows?” Alpharius responds “or you me.” at first I thought he was doing it to save himself, but after admitting he could be the one in the shadows, it showed it truly was just a tactical idea.

The World Eaters are my people (blood for the blood god), but I feel bad for Mortarian and the Death Guard but ESPECIALLY the Thousand Sons. If there was no risk of death or being mind-fucked by the warp, daemons, or the fact that the entire legion are psykers, I'd give Magnus a hug.

04:50 "The orcs and the orks"...and the orks and the orks and the orks, orks, orks, ORKS, ORKS, ORKS...

Misconception 7: There are way more hints and leads that implicate that WH Fantasy and 40k are connected. It's just that GW had to split the Universe in 2 Franchises back then, because the Fantasy fans were afraid to be left behind and forgotten because of 40K. But GW retconned only some Lore, that linked them together, so some hints are still there. 1. There is some implication that the Slaan could be the Old Ones of 40k. In 40k they created the Orks, feature prominently in Necron history, and are mentioned in passing in Eldar mythology. In Fantasy, they (maybe?) arrived from beyond the stars and created all life on the planet. They used to be part of the same universe, with the Warhammer Fantasy world being a place where the Old Ones did a lot of tests with genetic engineering and creating different races before they decided to make the Orcs and the Eldar. That's been ret-conned out however. 2. The liber chaotica is written from a fantasy perspective yet includes descriptions of chaos space marines. In that book, there’s two pages devoted to a vision someone had about “Armored giants wearing terryfing weapons of sound” and the pictures clearly showed Noise Marines 3. In some old Warhammer Fantasy stories, sorcerers, travelling through the Warp on Discs of Tzeentch caught glimpses of the W40K 'verse. 4. In the early editions, there were implications that the Chaos Wastes in the north of Fantasy’s world connected to somewhere in the WH40K 5. In the Game White Dwarf, The WD 100 includes the scenario "The Floating Gardens of Bahb-Elonn", which mentions that the Pygmies are the descendants of a crashed spaceship before the Slanns arrived on this world. 6. Realm of Chaos : The Lost and the Damned mentions that the Known World is a planet cut off from the rest of the Imperium due to important warp storms("The Warhammer World is bound by storms of magic so that it remains isolated form the other wolds of the human galaxy"). It also has some ambiguous mention of a scenario with a crashed spaceship, and another with "The Obsidian Crag", a mysterious place full of weird technology in the Chaos Wastes (obsidian is quite often associated to the Slanns). And of course one of the divine reward was to transport a Chaos band to and fro from the Known World and the galaxy. 7. The WD 108 contains a scenario about a warp gate linking the Known World to some random planet, which has unleashed an Ambull in some cave in the Empire. 8. The Star Boat, a novel by Stephen Baxter, has a Norse expedition to the Chaos Wastes to recover a Slann spaceship. Sadly it never got published. The two Warhammer RPG supplements released on the internet, Realm of Sorcery and Realm of Divine Magic, by Ken Rolston, also tried to expand somewhat on the links between the two universes, but were unfortunately never published either. 9. After the 3rd edition of Warhammer and the 1st edition of 40k, those references sort of disappeared. Perhaps they did not know too much what to do with it (they couldn't really have the Imperium invade or whatnot), or maybe it was the change of staff (Andy Chambers usually said he doesn't like to reveal too much the inner workings of the universe back when he was the head honcho). A few still remained, such as technological objects popping up (like in the Albion campaign), identical demons in both universes and the description of a Thousand Son in some chaos scholar's book. 10. The Book "Realm of Chaos - Slaves to Darkness" linked the Worlds in 1988. Therefor the WH world lies in between some Worpstorm in the 40k Universe. But later GW did everything to break that Link again. But with the reincarnation of the Squats (drinking space Dwarfs) maybe they reconnect with the WH world. 11. Albion campaign for Warhammer. When the campaign ended, each race were given extra magic weapons according to their number of victories. Several of these "magic" weapons are clearly from Warhammer 40k, including a flametrower, a powerfist and other stuff. 12.According to the old fluff the big hint that the warhammer world is in the eye of terror is Sigmar as for games workshops official policy of denying this. One thing is Sigmars "birth" was signalled by a comet. This was his cryo vat tank entering the atmosphere.

7: It's heavily implied that fantasy and 40k are in the same multiverse, linked via the realm of chaos. There's an example of the Skaven picking up eldar signals via their Far-Squeekers in the end times. Its also heavily implied that some Fantasy characters encountered Kaldor Draigo as a 'Silver Knight '. It's practically impossible for the two realities to meet outside of the depths of the warp. Whilst technically true that they are not in one universe, there are very tenuous links.

So, isn t it more correct to call them different universes (Warhammer fantasy and Warhammer AOS, who are clearly connected and Warhammer 40k) in the same setting, then two totally different franchises?? 🤔

13:50 Best Boy Pascall finally getting recognition he deserves and the game he is in also getting it.

Not sure if this came from a meme or not, but I was under the impression that the Adeptus Mechanicus was just as...flexible...with following their own rules as many other branches of the Imperium are. That while, yes, the ban on active experimentation is present for the exact reasons Weshammer describes, that doesn't stop a techpriest from experimenting in secret and when they come up with something useful just claiming they found a hitherto unknown STC, and the rest of the Mechanicum just shrugging and going "Sure, okay, whatever." Sort of ties in with the Flanderization of both the Mechanicus and the Imperium as a whole: yes, there's a lot of dogma and restrictive laws and a great number of people will try to enforce those laws to the detriment of Mankind, but there's also an equally large number of people who either know how to navigate the loopholes and use that to expedite things or who tell the stuffy enforcer "screw the rules, there's a crisis we have to stop!" Which is kind of a shame considering one of 40k's most beloved characters, Ciaphas Cain, is a master of both.

Not the Raven Guard, whose characterization is always that of battle hardened guerilla fighters with severe issues with traumatic stress. Edit: note the bit in First Blood when the cop messes with Rambo about his hair. I think it is similar to aformentioned nerds going all "LOL LOOK AT THE EMO SWOOSH" when joking about raven guard. it's probably important to note that these all come from a place of losing to a faction and wanting to make fun of them.

I like to believe that Alpharius and Omegon are indeed one soul. And that their special warp power is to "split up" amongst their sons. If Alpharius dies (and he did die), his soul just takes over one of their sons and turn him into a primarch. Kinda like that Emperor's Children swordmaster, Lucius when he gets defeated. Thus Alpharius Omegon cannot die unless both of them dies at the same time. And that why all their legionnaires state "I am Alpharius" ... cos they literally are. No reference for this... just my brainstorming xD

Honestly, the whole "A good chunk of the Impirium is not AS BAD as you think" seems to no longer be the case after the events of the Psychic Awakening. Like, things were bad before but now even planets that were relatively well off are now feeling the heat that was building up for 10K years. Hell even the Ultramar system thar was constantly advertised as the place where citizens have some of the best lives in the Impirium and are super loyal is currently facing rebelions and revolts because after 2 Tyranid invasions and the plague wars people just cant take it anymore (and even before that slavery was still a thing there and if you want to consider the Calgar comics as canon the average life expectancy was less than 40 years). Also, let us not forget that even if most worlds are considered "peaceful" or "civilized" and have a middle class in them getting by just fine it doesnt mean that life there is good. For example, Krieg was never invaded but that doesnt make life there any good. Pluss, the overwelming population of humans lives in Hive Worlds. It doesnt really matter if for every 100 "nice" worlds you have one Hive World, because the Hive World is gonna have more people in it than all of them putt together (pluss hive Cities exist even in non Hive Worlds).

Tbh the issue with Primaris marines is two-fold The first and most important to me is that it’s making such a stark distinction between one era of 40k and another. GW already made it way harder to collect firstborn miniatures by discontinuing some kits, so if I wanna play a game in a specific conflict (say 2nd War of Armageddon or the Badab War) then it’s going to ruin my immersion if I see Primaris marines running around those conflicts. So unless GW plans to milk the Horus Heresy even further by adapting the Scouring, then we’re at the mercy of eBay prices and questionable 3rd party products Secondly, I just don’t like the Primaris design. Too bland, too stocky, take up a lot of table space (more so than the upscaled CSM) and the lack of customisation that tactical squads had is… supremely lame. Doesn’t help that I dislike their design so much that it’s hard to enjoy space marines when the primaris are constantly plastered across everywhere. Easy to lose your enthusiasm if you prefer firstborn designs and there’s so little of it in the latest media Ok, ramble over

Omg I've been looking back all week for a new vid from you and then you drop the exact kinda vid that would grab my attention....actually looming forward to the rest of my work day now

What's interesting is that the Liber Chaotica shows that there are 40k factions operating in the Warhammer Fantasy world. Specifically listing their mechanical mounts, and showing chain swords in fantasy as cursed relic weapons. It's the only "official" piece of lore that shows anything from 40k manifesting in the fantasy world. Now, I'm fairly confident it's been ret-conned, but hey, still a neat bit of lore 😄

GW does play a part in the fladerization, but not because they want. Is a matter of logistics. The lore exists to sell toys, there is not a problem with that, the problem is that, due to the primary objective of selling a toy, the presentation of faction cannot be too deep. The rulebooks and codex books are the primary source of written information for newcomers and they can only dedicate so much space of thos books to lore. Rulebooks try to show the most immediate situation for the galaxy, and having over 20 factions, just three of four pages to each are A LOT to a book that needs to fit in a box and be shiped to stores worldwide. Codex books have similar problems, because it´s only one faction, yes, but also includes lore about the units, characters and subfactions, which usually talks about their style to rage war and maybe two or three defining traits. So, unless you want to expend hours upon hours of reading Black Library books, you will only have a very basic notion of the universe. BUT ALSO, this are the problems of the english-speaking community. As for the spanish-speaking community, is far, FAR worse. Very few books are translated, and sometimes, those translations are garbage. The flanderization turns into the goddamn norm. And let´s be honest: many a warhammer book is absolute trash. But not REQUIEM INFERNAL! Please Wes, you have to read Requiem Infernal!

Nah, they'll all be called primaris space marines in the future. Just like the Eldar are called the Edlari or whatever and the Imperial Guard is now the Astra Militarum. GW ran into some legal trouble that things like, "Eldar", "Space Marine" and "Imperial Guard" are not distinct enough entities that they're easily trademarkable or copyrightable.

It is also worth noting that Primaris is hardly even used as a descriptor in media other than when you specifically have first-born interacting with them and Astartes or Space Marines is used. Hell go and look at how they have reduced the term primaris in the new Codex: Space Marines (notice it's still called that), it's not in any keywords any more and only mentioned in any character sheets of older models that have it on the box of the model and all new units they release do not have Primaris in the name of the model being sold (Infernus, Desolation Squads ect). Sure maybe they intended at some point to have Primaris be some new trademarkable add on but if they did they have since given up on it.

Fantasy being ancient earth has some interesting implications considering Tolkien mentioned his work was inspired by “long lost history”

The 40k/Fantasy on one world idea never made sense to me. 40k has made it clear it uses the actual history of Earth in regards to Terra and the Emperor, and Earth doesn't have orks, lizard men, rat men, etc. living alongside humans, and fantasy has no record of the Emperor living within the Empire of Man.

One of the most popular misconceptions I’ve seen is that Abbadon tried and failed to break through Cadia 12 times before (eventually) succeeding. You can say it’s a “Flandarization” by turning him into a cartoon villain that constantly fails but capturing Cadia was explicitly not the primary objective of most of the Black Crusades and some of those he did just outright win in terms of what he was attacking and what the goals were. It’s not a “cop out” either since those details have been around since 2E and also it’s a parallel with the historic Crusades since many of those also didn’t have the immediate objective of capturing Jerusalem even if their immediate objective was intended to aid in the eventual capture of Jerusalem

Easily one of my favorite flanderizations comes with the Raven Guard, as they're just the edgy, bird-obsessed stealthy marines to a lot of the community. However, people forget that Corvus Corax's teachings of the Trifold Path of Shadow has stealth as only one of the three main aspects of the Raven Guard; the other two being ambush and vigilance. And in viewing the Raven Guard's successor chapters, you can see where different chapters specialize in different paths and fight in vastly different ways. The Raptors are masters of the Path of Vigilance through their use of practicality in warfare and their constant state of preparedness ensuring they're ready for anything. Meanwhile the Iron Ravens serve as masters of the Path of Ambush, attacking enemies in the least stealthy way imaginable: out-of-nowhere drop pod assaults to defeat the enemy quickly and suddenly through ambush.

So Ad mech is basically engineers with no scientists... haha. And like come on, technology always comes at a price, but that doesnt mean you shouldn't innovate.

The funny on the first item concerning the disconnect over time of WarHammer Fantasy and WarHammer 40,000 is that the two games were marketed originally as the distant past and even more distant future in the same universe, as you said. Something about parrot beak Space Marine helmets (unrelated) and a means in getting the existing paying customers of WarHammer Fantasy to get into the new game and reduce the numbers of soft bound books and newer hard bound books with “WarHammer 40,000 Rogue Trader.” Games Workshop didn’t have quite the writing staff in those earlier days that they do now. I don’t fully remember why the Skaven did not make the leap into WarHammer 40,000, I want to say there was a dispute of some form with Citadel miniatures, but I could be wrong. Dwarves and Ogres became part of humanity in WH 40K, and part of that choice had to deal with the various species within the Orks. Again, this is going back to when Games Workshop would send out Addendums on a constant basis, and later published them in their monthly magazine. I will say, I miss the old squad level, percentile dice game that was a mixture of Squad Leader and Twilight 2000, but then it was only Space Marines and Orks. Yes, the Orks were a faction I wrote off because I was never a fan of the original minis, but after reading a few books, and borrowing a codex, they became a more entertaining faction (for me). Happily singing parodies of songs “Waaaah” or “What a Beautiful Waaaah” along with so many others in a match, priceless. This said, comedy Orks are just too much fun and are more my preference, especially when there are those Douglas Adams and Thomas Sharpe moments were there really is a bit more thought to them than just, “fightz?” (With puppy-dog eyes and a slowly tilting of the head to one side.) The Tau and Kroot originally looked great, but man, any need for high damage or magical damage and you pretty much had to retreat with the greatest of quickness. The Necrons were another faction that didn’t function as well as the flavour text read.
