The Emperor was very different and to my eyes by no means a ruler without the part off his soul completely cut off. On the contrary he seems to be very intent on making his first son and the standin Emparah Robute set up as his physical body in this materrium. Sure there are others that are of importance. Roboute Gulliman simply because no one else would follow his father's dream so completely. No one else can organize such a vast body of work like it is nothing and also be human enough to make the ones who believe that they shouldn't be in charge by humanoids, almost cyber human still see the Primarchs of one them selves. Just like you look at Mike Tyson or Cro Cop. Guilleman is more human than many off the humans themselves and he's certainly not in it for his own goal. He has the leaders and authority that few have. The Lion has it. Even more so than Robute incredibly enough,but Even tough his ultimate new quest for him given to him by his Father is most likely one he has to choose first unless he'll be as stubborn and anything but a genius commander like Robute. When he gets so childishness fooled by the chaos champion. His energy won't even hit him. He's so awesome that the don't even dare. This is the commander of the chaos champion who decides over a fleet full of chaos Marines. Quite a few a very scourge by themselves. They keep on following this supposed embarrassing weakling that can't even conjure power enough to make it 59cm longer. Embarrassingingly bad writing in a book that is full of it........ but I still love it. And I have gone from a Dark Angel "haters" to one of my favorites just like that. I've always just kept them on the back burner since Russ and his Werewolves are the true force that makes chaos tremble and, ask their hideous mommy's look under the bed 🛏️ just to make sure old Wolf King Russ still scare the useless xenos. I just can't wait until Russ and Lion faces each other and it's written by a competent writer who understands that having to heroes fighting each other is such a BS move. Lion and the Wolf together against a size of Tyranids or some evolved/Köks/Orks on a superb war would be something so great to read or listen to that it would be hard to top as an action flick. The huge Amys of the Marines are only drawing fire. Fire so that the Ork Warbozzez doesn't realize that Lion and Leman..are going covert . Flanking their foes. They have a group of 5-8 Marines with them. To make banter death from others than the same two Great stuff would be by chance happening upon a female fighter pilot who becomes their battle sister ...and so on.... yada.....of course much revealing about the old ones. Not everything but some cryptic why the Emperor and the old ones are working together. More about all the phenomenal super stuff his power armor is made up off. And especially what it can do that is really cool. I don't know. Having him hand a Thunder glove as extra tool. Either arm I Guess but on his sword arm just makes it pop more imo.

It's certainly looks boring to have the master of mankind essentially written out of the setting. You can try justify it so many ways, but you know as well as any ten year old will that until maybe 20 but realistically 30 years from now will The Emperor of mankind, the master of mankind in fact even be talked about or mentioned compared to this new vagina. I understand that will roughle some feathers, but it doesn't make it any less true. I sure hope that I am wrong and that the real, the real without question the actual bonafide MASTER OF MANKIND isn't becoming a second hand character.. It's not like the exact simila scenario hasn't already happened to more franchises. Just wait until this very Small part will turn out to be OF SOOOOO much stronger than he incredible strength of his already shown part. Please don't try to just do justify how wrath, strength,wisdom etc......stronger than.......rainborns and unicorn.😂 Together they're the master of mankind. Don't try desperately trying to insert the Emperor can be both. Do be a bigot. The Emperor is a she. Has always been and will be welcomed by the ten people who gatekeep like crazy. I understand access to GW Sandman........ But I can also see what it really is that really makes you think WH40k is bloody awesome. Just a taste. The Lion battles Angron singlehandedly....... really screaming femininity, right? It wasn't such huge still talk about event in the setting after a year even though cool stuff wasn't either jamed down over througts..FYI I'm most certainly not complaining. I love lore from the Sandman. If I don't agree with your thoughts I have th perfect sandsack that will punish me forever doubting you. Hail to the Sandman! Hell tell that Ravenor isn't twice the draw as Bequin. Now let's compare with Eisenhorn. Am I Ridicolous if I say 1k.......39,999k. for anyone interested in Bequin as the main source and not old smiley face himself. Yes it's messy as arse to read but I know you. The fight between Horus vs Leman Russ. Horus vs The Lion Round 2 Horus vs Sanguineous Horus vs The Master of Mankind. You love this as much as I . It doesn't mean even a little bit that you don't want anything else. Just that I'm a boy and I like playing with the idea of being the utter un- egotistical super man who's utterly capable Like Russ, Conan my favorite, Lion El Johnson

Every time Abbaddon scores a big victory he winds up resurrecting a primarch and powering up Big E. What's next for the Despoiler? Successfully blowing up an important planet and bringing back Corax, Jaghatai or Russ? Launching an invasion of Segmentum Solar and having Dorn or Vulcan pop out of the shadows? Bombing a strategic imperial garrison world and having the ghost of Ferrus or Sanguinius manifest and set fire to the Vengeful Spirit?

I always liked how Dan Abnett portrayed the Emperor-in-the-warp as a much more benevolent and loving god (though still not "good" persay) in Gaunts Ghosts. I think the fact that E detatched that part from his pragmatic, scheming, and machivelian emperor-on-the-throne means they will almost inevitably come into conflict. I see the emperor-in-the-warp as something akin to Sigmar or Ulric in the Old World of WHFB. A guiding entity not fundamentally tied to material reality. I see this entity as something different from the last vestiges of the man Neoth (for lack of a better name) tied to the throne.

He's not evil without his good side but now he sees everything as a God would.

So his plans came to ruination, but he had plans upon plans including one that accounted for his current situation (I think this was stated by Malcador).

Also tbh i dont know if the emperor really had contingencies for what happened in the heresy. He certainly couldn't conceive initially that his favorite kid would join chaos. And then malcador kinda scrambled to set up the inquisition. And his idea to beat horus was to become chaos god #5 (sorry malal). The imperium today is on the opposite end of what the emperor wanted for humanity, and if he returned people would worship him even more. Theres not really any way to salvage the imperium imo... Unless this is some 5d chess plan to build up his power by being worshipped like a god. I mean just look at sororitas living saints...theyre basically warp demons but good aligned.

Living saints appearing at those moments when things are at their most dire provide those “Deus ex-machina” plot devices that miraculously turn the tide, and boost the morale of those in battle. The Sanguinor does the same for the Blood Angels. I love to see it, even if I see it coming! I love Valdor and that he’s been in his own pocket dimension in the Warp, with his nulls and winged Angels. I would love to see the Sensei in 40k again - the Emperor was a MAN, always a man, who took wives and had children over those thousands of years before he ascended to being the Emperor. Some would have inherited a measure of his gifts. How many children have those children had during the whole setting, with some of those children displaying those gifts, some being persecuted as witches and heretics by the Ecclesiarchy and the Inquisition? It’s such an exciting time in 40K!

What if and bare with me. The reason the Emperor is fragmented isnt just due to his self mutilation of his soul but also from his duel with Horus. In the old lore its stated that the emperor recieved one devastating wound from Horus that wounded him not just physically but spiritually. Now in the end and the death VoL 3 that is not what happens. Instead he is battered over and over. Being wounded then healed and wounded again. But here comes the important part. Their battle took place on the vengeful spirit/imperial palace which had been dragged into the warp and had become the center of the warp. Now their battle wasnt just on a physical level but also a metaphysical level. Heres the important part. Every wound Horus inflics upon the emperor causes the emperor to bleed years/soul. Bam there it is. Johns journey becomes an absolute hassle why? Because the inevitable city which was a combination of the imperial palace and vengeful spirit which had been dragged into the warp and became the center of the warp had been split once more. His path he had to re-thread was now seperated by both time and distance. And not by a little either. We are talking millenniums and light years. The emperors soul was carved into pieces and spread throughout time and space and thats why his perpetual nature couldnt heal it. He has to pychicly draw himself back together which due to the circumstances of holding hell back with the force of his will alone isnt something that can be done in a reasonable time 😂 This is also why his conversation with guilliman was so wierd. Hes having to literaly pull his fragmented soul back together. And this also means that the lion is likely only speaking to a part of the emperor when he sees the Fisher King. This may have been helpful. When creating an application its better to split data off and run seperately as to not overload the system. The emperor is literaly able to delegate work to different aspects of himself allowing himself to be in many places at once. Which was his only weakness back during the crusade and heresy. He had to leave the crusade to build his webway project. And then he had to sit on the golden throne instead of fixing the damage magnus cause and or killing horus before he got to powerful. Now he can be anywhere and everywhere and when he needs more juice he can pull himself back together like he did in godblight. Chaos watch out when he gets back the part of himself he actual meant to discard.

Unfortunately, Between Chaos United and the constant seepage of demons through the webway / invasion of Terra, he didn't have the time to heal, so he just left his physical body to die while he powers the Astronomican. He's a perpetual, so even if his body is obliterated, he'll still come back IIRC. Even if that didn't work, he could still just reincarnate through the sheer power of his psychic might.

Do all the writers have sitdowns before a novel is written? Is there a roadmap for the future or is it made up as they go along? If there's a roadmap, what sort of latitude does each writer have to play with within the roadmap? Who approves each book?

"Do all the writers have sitdowns before a novel is written?" No. None of the BL authors really communicate with each other. That's why there are always so many narrative inconsistencies between novels written by different authors. That's why I unironically don't consider anything BL puts out to be canon. It's just officially supported fan fiction. If it isn't written in the lore section of the rulebook or codex, then it isn't canon. That's my take and it simplifies things immensely.

16:42 that kind of fits into the fact that the Imperium of Men is an Organisation where nobody is really in control and different people have ultimate power in different Situations and for different reasons. Emps being more then one being kind of fits that.

A few years ago, with the advent of the primaris/indomitus/models White Drawf had an issue with a list of appearances by the Legion of the Damned in an inquisition file, showing that an ordo hereticus was trying to hunt down every instance and attempt to capture them...

Why do you think that the emporer calls Gman "betrayer" because of imperium secundus? All sons rebel against their father (even if it is just a minor act). Making all betrayer at some level. *edit* The emporer fully expected Gman to build an empire. Can't remember which story, but when the emporer asked malcador why he couldn't see guilleman. Malcador frets about what gman is doing and the emporer asks "what do you think he would be doing?" As if the answer was obvious.

I agree that Warhammer 40,000 has an endpoint and I think it's important for GW to keep in mind knowing when to take a bow with the setting. The worst thing would be to watch it die without ceremony. Also I can picture an animated story of Loken in my mind's eye.

I don’t think GW with ever “take a bow” with the setting, which means there can be no end point. Unless it stops making money, in which case they will kill it without any big organised end game. As public company, they have a legal obligation to the shareholders to generate profit. If the IP is profitable, it would actually be illegal for them to kill it - unless they can demonstrate to the shareholders that they have some other way to keep the money flowing in afterwards.

The problem with that is GW are a bunch of dumb, greedy bastards who will milk the franchise until they've lost as much good will with their players as Hasbro/Wizards has with D&D and MtG. That's just reality. The only way the story is gonna end is if fans get so frustrated they stop buying/playing new editions because they're just a mindless caah grab, a la D&D.

about thoughts and prayer part: since the emperor's sensory output is so strong and potent, I'm fairly sure he'd be able to "detect" any prayers in his name, and since quantum entanglement is a thing, the souls he'd cut off from himself could still attain the same knowledge or awareness of said prayers.

It bothers me, admittedly an unreasonable amount, how much people want Tyranids to have some type of ‘creationist’ origin. I truly think Tyranids naturally evolving from single celled organisms with no intervention from another faction is the most interesting possible story. Bare with me here, a natural evolution opens up an avenue for GW to actually explore a scientific subject that isn’t pure fantasy. Specifically what I find interesting, is the scientific concept of “emergence”, which is a real thing we see in organisms like ants. The fact that a solitary ant is so unintelligent, but in a collective develops an organized intelligence is fascinating. And not like orks, cause orks obviously achieve what they do through a primarily fantasy mechanic. The idea that emergence is so powerful that it becomes (not creates, but evolves to) a psychic presence; that is true science fiction. If they turn out to be some other specifics, like the Old Ones’ creation would be so ultimately disappointing.

Food for thought: Andromeda is a measly 2.5 M LY away, which is _peanuts_ compared to how long the Necrons have been sleeping. The Necrons could have flown settlers to Andromeda, found the Tyranids creators, been wiped out, and there's still many millions of years for the Tyranids to get here. The Triangulum Galaxy is about 3.2 M LY away - also not long compared to how long the Necrons have slept - or, for that matter, the War in Heaven. With relativistic time dilation effects, near (but non-FTL) travel would definitely be a preferred way to go: the time is seemingly instantaneous to the traveler, and probably inconsequential to anyone else.

Imagine if the Tyranids where originally a rather benevolent species that got corrupted by some kind of infection. Perhaps the real monsters in the tyranid hordes are actually a virus/bacteria/micro organism that has taken control over their victims. The scary thing is that there are such things happening for real. Imagine a infection reprogramming your instincts. Suddenly you get a rodent that loose its fear of cats and actually seek thrm out. Toxoplasma does that. It is also suspected of creating the "crazy cat lady" phenomenon in humans.

It is an Old One creation, sorry to say. They came to the milky way with Zoats leading ahead of them, in Warhammer Zoats are the lizardmen remnants of the Old Ones and the Zoats are the only species to ally themselves with Tyranids for any length of time. This only makes sense if there are lingering control safeguards which prevent the Tyranids from consuming them outright because they have no need whatsoever for emissaries, and no interest in technology, which they leave to the Zoats. If you look at the Archivist, who is a Zoat, or other pictures of Zoats you will see a striking resemblance to Orks, because Orks are derived from Old Ones, this is why they are all psychic. The frequency of psychic potential is hindered in the Zoats because they are ultimately slaves to the Tyranids, though they do break away from bondage due to their independence from the hive-mind and its biotechnology. One such freedman, the Archivist sought the Blackstone Fortress to recover Zoat artifacts which could be found on the re-activated station, why would there be Zoat artifacts on an Old One vessel, despite them being newcomers to the galaxy, unless they had a connection? Who else but the Old Ones could engineer such a versatile and fearsome creature?

59:30 Skaven aesthetic emerging in Necromunda can't be a coincidence then

If I was a primarch, at this point I might consider helping Abbaddon. Almost all his latest plans help the empire out enough to make up for the bad stuff.

I have no problem with GW bringing back all of the Primarchs if it is done well. Likewise if they want to bring Magnus back over to the Emperor’s side, do it well. Do it over time with stories that capture the imagination.

The point about Eisenhorn for the Amazon TV show starter not needing as much special effects is a good one. Keeping the majority of the effects practical rather than CGI (especially given how well Amazon did the CGI on RoP) would really help ground it and make it "feel real". That'd give it a big boost. Edit: Villeneuve would be a great director for an "epic movie/trilogy" but he really needs that scale to do his best work.

We need a faction that randomizes what happens in a turn by literally using a "tarot" deck; it could be Adepta Sororitas, could be Custotes, could even be Word Bearers.

With Sanguinious as the Star Child, recognition of him as such will be taken as faith IN the Emporer. It was WHY "San" went knowingly to his death,... his "faith" in his father.

@MoonLitChild

Ай бұрын

Wholeheartedly agree. Sangy was one of the great lights of the Emperor-- to have some sort of rebirth or Warp-Reincarnation of him would bring a massive boost in faith in the Emperor, not Sangy specifically, beloved though he was. Saints cannot by definition exist without the higher being they have their faith in. And that's what the primarchs were, Sanguinius more literally than most.

Great video. But I'll see your Denis Villeneuve W40K and raise you a Neil Blomkampf W40K movie. Villenueve can do cinematography and atmosphere, nail that Gold Gothic look but he's kinda sterile and his action is not visceral. Blomkampfe can do action and a more mechanised, military feel. You want to see Chaos or the Eldar pop, I'm gonna say Guillermo Del Toro. Think about it.

@MoonLitChild

The issue is that Del Toro sympathizes with the monsters first, last and always, (unless he has a co-writer a la Pacific Rim) and there's noooot a lot to sympathize with if the movie is primarily about the Imperium. I do think he'd be great as a conceptual designer for the forces of Chaos, though. My pick for director would be Gareth Edwards if his experiences with Disney didn't destroy his soul.

The funny question is IF the custodes know about the emperor being cleaved in twain, and these two parts not necessarily being alligned, who do the custodes follow?

All these questions you are asking about the Emperor are answered in the first book I read, "Eisenhorn". When the Emperor talks to Eisenhorn, the voices of the Emperor debate each other about the result of a course of action. On that note, it surprises you that you are allowing GW the ability controls canon. Once it is in print, it becomes canon.

Biggest mistake with Dawn of Fire was putting Nick Kyme in charge of it. He’s a prat.

Skaven have been the fifth chaos god since AoS started and Slaanesh had dissapeared.

Now _this_ is the lore scholarship I need to be listening to

If 40k ends I hope they just use all of these characters in a fantasy setting. Same Emperor, Lion gets scattered to Brettonia, Vulcan to the Lizard People, Russ to the North tribes, etc etc. Let them fight the Skaven!

The Emperor in WFB is a weakling/fop whose dooming the Empire to destruction from its foes. At least, that's the original and best version of it because it's a grim world of perilous adventure after all. It wasn't a fun place to be. Then they went all Empire in Flames and had him turn into Sigmar and it all went to pot. But no, they don't really need to transpose them to WFB/WFRP. It's much better off as it's own thing.... now... Space Skaven squirting the musk of fear.... oh yes, yes please. That would be awesome.

In the end you are talking about what Henry Cavill could play on screen and I always thought you could do a Eisenhorn series and start sprinkling in visions of the Yellow King from the start, working your way up to Bequin if the show is successful enough. This way Henry could play Valdor as is his wish AND his face could be on all the promo as Amazon will want.

The other four points of Chaos, I'd point to Warhammer Fantasy as well as. Michael Moordock's Elric of Melnibone series. Moordock was the one that originated the symbol basically just based on a compass. DnD also adapted it as it's alignment system with Law/Chaos and Good/Evil being W/E and N/S. The four minor points are the combination of the four major ones. In regards to the Chaos Gods, there may be overlaps between two Gods and then you might find a minor chaos god that fits the overlap. The Horned Rat could be seen as an overlap between the plagues of nurgle and the scheming of Tzeentch. Hashut could be seen as the knowledge of Tzeentch and the fury of Khorne. Just some pointers.

I would love to hear some more discussion about that wonderful piece of fanfic that was Rise of Tau. It covers a wonderful endgame timeline for most factions and characters in a very epic way.

Depends on who or what the Star Child is for me. Duality narritives in the most traditional sense bore the shit out of me (as in, if the Star Child is the positive aspects of the Emperor he exisized from himself.) If it's Sanguinius and there has to be a bare minimum three primarch showdown (Guilliman, Johnson and Sanguinius v. Corrupted Emperor), that I'm 100% down for it. Guilliman has been being denying a degree of divinity since he's returned and I think if anyone needs to force him into believing in that in the 11th hour, it's Sanguinius.

Emperor "OH Wow! That's the last time I take NyQuil. What'd I miss?"

The Emperor, Upon Awakening: Fucking finally! I have so many things to complain about!

As Abbadon was doing what he did , a voice came to him saying “It was at that moment he realized He phuced up”

Guilimans conversation with Big E reminds me of interacting with Parkinsons grandparent in the retirement home, just enough in there to almost recognize you but thinks you are your dad or uncle that they are mad at for something 20 years ago.

I think chaos Gods work the opposite of how we view time travel. Like we are stuck on a linear timeline with many paths and we can influence the path but still kinda stuck on a line. So, the Eldar were stuck on a line to create a god and boom, on the material timeline, Slenesh is born. At that moment I believe the past was changed like a butterfly effect but backwards. So for a Chaos God to always be, someone must birth them in the future for that new God to effect the past. So sense we are watching time unfold linearly we as outside viewers don't know when this "birth" and rewriting happens.

I find it interesting that to cast out the power of the dark king, the Emperor had to cast out compassion and such. Does that mean the dark king is dependent on a being that has those star child traits? Because when Horus let go of his Godlike power near the end it didnt seem like he lost and personality for it.

The best way they could reintegrate Cypher into the Dork Angels is to have him keep doing exactly what he's been doing until now. Infiltration, scouting, intel, making deals and popping up where you least expect it with an occasional report back to Lion.

The Emp has been awake since Jaq Draco travelled to the Throne to inform him of the Ordos Hydra. Likely before.

And when the emporer awakes, he will shout with all his might "Yaassss quueeennn!!!", He will get rid of all the primarcs except for the one that be come women

Around 30:40 the power split between the two versions of the emperor was talked about. I always thought the psychers given to the astrinomicon powered one and worship the other. This seems to be leading to drama of some sort between the two

I can't remember the name of the novel (it was a series about an Inquisitor) but the Inquisitor manages to get into the throne room. The Emporer communes with him but he is suffering from multiple personalities each with their own psychosis.
