RAPTORS - Unorthodox Stoics | Warhammer 40k Lore
Today we shall elucidate the enigmatic deeds of Adeptus Astartes Chapter: the Raptors.
Experts of guerrilla warfare and espionage tactics alike to their Primogenitor, many an Astartes Chapter has derided the Raptors as cowards by virtue of their methods.
Masters of ranged warfare and ambush manouevres, regardless of the barbs thrown by their peers these sons of the Ravenlord continue serve with dignity in the name of the Emperor.

The Raptors are by far one of the most deadliest warriors of the Space Marines Chapter for they use their superior tactical mind to defeating every imaginable foe that the Imperium has ever faced, and while many others chapters will consider them cowardly they fight with a mind more benefitting their Father mind.

Reasonable Marines!
Pragmatic in their approach to war, sees the Codex Astartes as a simple guide, easily my favorite chapter.
Man how disconnected must their cousin legions be, when a chapter of the emperor's angels mesh more with the human fodder than their fellow space marines. To be an auxiliary force attached to a space marine chapter or even to have them on speed dial is an immense honor.

I love that other chapters criticiz the raptors for how the ues the codex but the codex was written and intended by gullimun be used as a guide to warfare, not a strict set of rules. The ultramarines learned that the hard way when the tyranids attacked ultramar.
The parallels between The Raptors and the Alpha Legion are crazy

Right! I've read a few Alpha Legion books and was like, waaait a minute 🤔🧐... Pretty much everything but pale skin and dark hair screams Alpha Legion.
I think that when the Raptors take out the Alpha Legion, they should bring cameras. The looks on the faces of the Alphas when the walls and shrubbery start attacking? Priceless.

Awesome, show us! I’m at 2800 pts of raptors now
I wonder if they ever stood by their brothers along with the Revilers and Death Eagles when Waaagh Garaghak prepared to approach Deliverance. If they ever continue this storyline it would be a neat storyline comparable to Devastation of Baal where the Sanguinary Brotherhood stood together. This time it would be the Scions of the Ravenlord fighting together as one after millenias.
Ah yes, the intelligent marines
I've always liked the Raptors. Liked the Raven Guard too. Imagine, a force of super soldiers that fight using actual military tactics instead of the standard, "run in, guns blazing, swords swinging, roaring battle cries" brute force approach the rest of the Imperium favors. I can scarcely imagine how many deadly enemies could be eliminated if other chapters took this approach: Feints, counterattacks, use of deception, use of decapitating strikes, use of cover, camouflage, booby traps, misdirection and snipers. On top of all that, being a superhuman able to rip a man's arms off.
Hmm, a Raptors - Lamenters team up would be fairly spectacular.
If any U.S. vets were to be reincarnated into the 40k verse. This is where they went.
Guilliman would have a field day with these guys.

There’s a white dwarf that mentioned something about Guilliman and the Raptors use in the Indomutes fleet.
A Raptor-Mentors team up would be too much for the setting.
I like this chapter. No nonsense, logical, and you earn your position.
If an enemy has to fight both Catachan Jungle Fighters, Mantis Warriors, _and_ the Raptors, they will never know what hit them.

Aww yiss, Remembrancer talking about muh bois; today is a good day!
This was great! One of the coolest astartes chapters! Very badass that they kick it with the gaurd! Appreciate you giving them a solid ten minutes! Gracias Rem!
Gulliman might tell them "eh, my book is outdated anyway. You're good."
By far my favourite chapters are the 2nd founding Ravenguard boys. Love the Raptors, Revilers and Black Guard.
-Somehow escaped the Raven Guard Genekerfuffle with the Alpha Legion. -Had their planet blown up in "a" Black Crusade. Won't clarify which one. -Returned seemingly from nowhere after assumed extinct. -Doesn't disclose their homeworld's location. Supposedly in an unnavigatiable area of space. -Laughs at modern standard Astartes tactics. Heavy use of infowar, espionage, and independent cell structures in wars. Hmmm, maybe we should try asking for any brothers named Alpharius among their ranks. Thanks for the video.
I don't know much but that's why i am here lock and load 😎👊
Still wish there was a detachment for either the Imperial Guard or Space Marines which let you mesh forces. Realize it would be unbalanced, but still cool
I love this chapter and your videos keep up the good work dude
YES MY FAV CHAPTER
As a son of corvus corax I know he would be proud of you, o great remembrancer victorus Aut Mortis... 🤫😶🌫️🖤
I don't care what anyone says, The Raptors are my favorite chapter.
wish there were novels focusing on these guys
Disappeared after a black crusade destroyed their world. Came back 2 millennia later full strength.... and theyre awesome! 1. Plussed up by Alpha legion loyalists. 2. They were destroyed, and an alpha legion detachment painted their armor a different green. Whether it be apart of a larger ploy to subvert the imperium or to spread out a new more based imperial truth. 3. Cawls first crack at primaris by combined alpha legion and ravenguard geneseed.
Green Berets of 4Oks! 🤗 💕 Raptors💕
The most practical minded!
Oh I see now, I thought it was weird how their chapter was called raptors even though they have an eagle so I searched it up on google, it's another name for birds of prey like an eagle. What a cool chapter.
Wooo...Hooo! Many thanx Master Narrator. Go Birds 👍👍
Favorite chapter confirmed
Def one of my favourite chapters
Awesome chapter
These guys are a favorite!
My favorite chapter!
I’d like to think they weren’t married to the idea of strictly wearing camo green, just that’s all we’ve seen them wage war in because of their environment. It’d be cooler if they were in the desert, they painted their armour tan, in artic conditions white, etc….
They should use the tainted geneseed. The mutant Raptors during the Horus Heresy were cool AF.

07:07 "Heh. Who cares? Not me. My tactics bring me victories, and that is my honour. Haters will hate, anyway." Some Raptor, probably.
Reasonable marines!
The Raptors are Alpha Legion. Look thru their "history", the way they fight, how they will fight alongside others but considered "cowards" as they avoid casualties, hidden command, stable geneseed (after AL encounter), etc etc They behave exactly how an AL infiltrated chapter would act.

@@gamechanger8908 10k years they have spent infiltrating the imperium. How far up the chain have they infiltrated in that time? Chapter masters were neophyte at one time. Any an all could be AL. Like all other chapters, the AL take things to the extreme. So you can imagine they have their eyes an ears as far up the chain as it gets at this point. There aren't many "stable" geneseeds at all. Anytime stable geneseed in abundance is "discovered" you have to wonder which of the stable geneseed did it come from. Ultra marines? Hell naw, they'd know if they had lost geneseed, without a doubt. Or does it make more sense that the mysterious geneseed was "found" because it was placed there to be found. The AL had one of the largest legions, when heresy kicked off. They retained their homeworld, never suffered mass casualties, etc. People ignore jus how powerful a group the AL is. They could cripple the imperium from within, an no one would know it was happening until it was to late to change it. They haven't because Alpharius is loyal.

It’s not that i dislike them but sensible marines just don’t make a lot of sense in the setting. The lore just seems a bit Mary sue now to me, they’re *too* good for 40k. If everyone just did what made sense in 40k, you wouldn’t have titans. Or some glowing skeleton on the mother of all bidets.
