Damn. That was an awesome story. Amazing how the Lords of terra didn’t take them seriously other than “power grab” As Bricky said “you can’t fight a war if you don’t got nothing to shoot with” and by that titan showing up the Ambassador made that point SO damn clear. “You DO realize we know how to make them go, right?”

Out of all the lore channels, Wes is the best at content construction and synthetization. Bringing every possible important and interesting tangents to every topic and every story within the 40 to 60 mins video. I just wish he got more recognition for his efforts.
Damn i really liked listening to her story, not knowing if she lives or dies beforehand was really fun
High Lords : nop. No help Mars. Collegia Titanica : Oi wheres the Emperor class' key?
I didn't know how to react at first, but, just, HOLY F%#@! My jaw literally DROPPED, a FRICKIN' EMPEROR CLASS TITAN, was one pissed off foot away from squashing the High Lords FLAT! You said their creation was CRAZY, you definitely delivered! No wonder, one of thevery first things Guilliman did upon his return, was getting rid of the High Lords! This one will stick with me for a WHILE! If what the High Lords almost pulled HERE was bad, if Guilliman didn't do away with them, the Imperium may have been almost screwed! You NEVER fail to NAIL IT!
I'd love to hear Dorns apoplectic reaction to the Titan going on a rampage through his freshly built fortifications
I remember when a friend of mine introduced me to 40k and showed me the AdMech. I immediately fell in love with it.

Awesome vid, I dont know very much about the Adeptus Mechanicus beyond surface level stuff so a full rundown of the Schism of Mars leading to the induction of the Fabricator General to the High Lords of Terra is pretty interesting.

Then again, Malcador was probably not much of a fan of these High Lords to begin with, so if a Titan happens to clean them all up, then so be it.
I always thought the Schism happened because one side wanted to move Toaster Tuesdays to Toaster Thursdays and the other side wanted to keep it the way it is and the Boomers won and wiped them out saying "We will NEVER speak on Toaster Thursdays again!" 😂 Another great video Wes! I drop everything when your videos pop up. Can you cover the Shadowkeepers and the mysteries around what they keep underneath the Palace?

Given the nonexistent "progress" of the dark mechanicum over the last 10k years, despite their whole reason for plitting off being the access to unrestricted research, it might as well been a division over toaster day.

Love your videos. They get me through the boring work shifts. I have a question - have you read the book "Unholy" and if yes, can we look forward to a scarry story from it.
Hey mate, just wanted to say thanks for the content. Your channel is incredible. I’m a pretty new 40k fan and I’ve always stuck to the VAULTS OF TERRA channel, which is quite old and I don’t think he makes content anymore. So it’s really nice to have found another really amazing channel. Thanks mate !!
Right off the bat a sick picture of the Scitari.
Man what I would give to see a interaction from a Tech priest and a Dark Mechanic Tech priest would be interesting in what they talk about and I wonder if they got a Fabricator general like figure too in the warp and what he’d say or think of Cawl
@Khayon_The_Kingbreaker

Read Belisarius Cawls new book Genefather. There are some interactions between Tech Priests and the Dark Mechanicum. They dont talk about Fabricator Generals but they do talk about Cawl. Plus, we get interactions between Fabius Bile and the Dark Mechanicum. The Dark Mechanicum doesn't have a Fabricatior General, they're not a single faction, more of a bunch of smaller parties doing their own thing. For instance during Genefather they focus on the Disciples of Null, and they dismiss the name Dark Mechanicum and call themselves the True Mechanicum. Genefather is awesome, definitely give it a read. It has some Huge reveals for the current setting of 40k.

And after watching this video and suddenly realizing the context for this? Like; that sure is a spot on depiction; just made so *casually.*
One of the best videos you made Wes, great job ! 👌
Adeptus, in Latin, is literally "one who has obtained." It basically means someone is good at or has learned (or has become adept) to be a certain way or thing. So saying "adeptus mechanicus" would basically be saying "those who are adept with machines, with mechanics." Just thought I'd throw that in there.
Yes!!!!! Thanks for the upload Wes.
Man you just keep getting better that was epic!!! Thanks!!!

Dude, good story telling and one I haven't heard before. However what would've been awesome was to have added the 'War Horn' for extra effect. Or in future episodes some sounds effects would make the clips more impactful...

That was stressful 😅 holy crap awesome video
I feel like the emperor knew full well that fighting the mechanicom was all but impossible, although creating inner conflicts would schism the martians and by supporting one side would allow him to fully induct them to the imperium of mankind. A theory anyways
Hey man, your content is part of the reason I dove so heavy into 40k since last summer, and I feel you may appreciate this... Doctor Who as a whole takes place during the Dark Age of Technology, and I can provide evidence that backs up my statements. The Five Doctors is in a proto tessaract Labyrinth, Rassilon's Foundry is in Tarzyn's collection. It gets much deeper my dude.

Heck, the Nestene Consciousness is the Ctan.

Another great video! I've been watching your channel for just over a year now and there's always something interesting on. 😊 Something I'm unclear about, though. In your video on the Imperial Knights, you said (if I understood you correctly) that they are a kind of "third kingdom" in the Imperium, right after the Imperium itself and the Mechanicus. Is "The Imperium" a catch-all term for any human faction not Chaos-aligned and they're united only by allegience to the Emperor or are they all officially part of the Imperium and just names for different "departments"? "It's complicated" is a totally valid answer, too. 🤣
As an AdMech fan... this was breathtakingly awesome. ❤❤❤
