Wraith Constructs (Ghost Warriors) EXPLAINED By An Australian | Warhammer 40k Lore

If anyone ever asks "What makes Warhammer so Grimdark?" Tell them that arguably the most morally good faction in the entire setting avidly uses Necromancy.

    I'd be much happier chilling at home than on a battlefield with the motor controls like I've had 15 whiskeys. Being in a soul stone/the infinity circuit keeps them safe, they could be safely back on the craft world on the other side of the galaxy. Being in a wraith construct puts your soul in the direct line of fire and to top it off I don't even get a choice in it, literally a conscript from the afterlife.

    But it's not the Necromancy you'd think of. These wraith constructs willingly defend the living. it's like an ultimate sacrifice. Not really grimdark. Because nobody's really forcing them to be like this. It's actually quite a noble act. Ofc, there are some naughty spiritseers and craftworlds, but it'd be like condemning an entire nation due to few individuals' actions.

This was my army when i actually played and i never enjoyed something more than deleting an entire squad of marines with my dark reapers, charging a terminator squad with my banshees, annihilating a command squad with bright lances while rerolling all dices because of psychic powers.

    It's worth noting that the Eldar are highly fragmented as a species, more so than the T'au (T'au Empire vs Farsight Enclaves). Whereas, each Craftworld is its own faction like Biel-Tan, Saim-Hann, Alaitoc, Ulthwe, Iyanden, Mymeara etc. and there are also the Harlequins and Eldar Corsairs with their own factions and different ideologies. The Masque of Midnight Sorrow, Dreaming Shadow, Soaring Spite, Frozen Stars, Veiled Path, Silent Shroud for the Harlequins, and the Sunblitz Brotherhood, Sky Raiders, Void Dragons etc. for the Eldar Corsairs. Not to mention the Exodites with their own Exodite worlds. And you also got the followers of Yvraine and the God of Death, Ynnead, aka the Ynnari. So, they might be more populous than the T'au overall, but they are too fragmented, and hence less in numbers on their own as individual factions. And then you got the Dark Eldar, but they've become their own race overtime with them losing their psychic capabilities and getting paler due to Commorragh being a pocket dimension. And even the Dark Eldar are too fragmented, in fact, more so than the Craftworlds. Each Kabal, Haemonculus Coven and Wych Cult is its own faction. The Kabal of Black Heart, Poisoned Tongue, Flayed Skull, Obsidian Rose. The Haemonculus Coven of the Prophets of Flesh, Coven of Twelve, Dark Creed. The Wych Cult of Strife, Red Grief, Cursed Blade...

But if you aren't ever put into an infinity circuit I imagine its more like purgatory; endless nothingness where your consciousness is barely there all by itself left alone with its thoughts for eternity until someone breaks your stone or puts you into an infinity circuit or wraith (both of which I suppose would be an upgrade.)

    Look at it this way: You'll only ever be called upon in really really horrible times. That means you have to fight stuff that has the potential of eradicating your race entirely, making it probable that you and your soul stone will be destroyed. A soul stone being destroyed for an eldar means that they get straight pulled into the realm of slaneesh being a sex slave and worse for all eternity. I'd be pissed if someone wakes me up to say: "Well you know, you already died once but how about we let you die once more only that this time it's very likely that you'll become a play thing of slaneesh. The worst possible fate even considering all the other Chaos gods. It's literally reviving your grandma, giving her a full auto mashine gun and tell her to fight that thousand man strong meth warrior group. As a reward she gets fiddled with and suffers for all eternity. Safe to say your grandmother wouldn't really appreciate that, even if she starts blasting.

    Wanna know a potenital fun fact potenital fact definetly fun... jk Ive seen that the whole wraith bone asthetic is very similar to the works of the polish artist Zdzisław Beksiński specially when he depicts buildings. You can see it very well in the Dawn of War 3 annoncement trailer in the minute 1:25 even the building resembles one of his works id name it but its Untiteled like most of his its a big blue building very similar to the one in the trailer. Makes you wonder maybe GW got inspiration from him since his paintings are very grim dark and from the epoc. Glad you stayed till the end.

    What? The Eldar forgot how to make certain Wraith constructs? What are they? The Imperium of Man? They might as well ally with the Imperium, just as forgetful as the cogboys, just as arrogant as the monkeighs, and just as fucked when Chaos, the Necrons, the Orcs or the Nids take over. Also the Imperium seems to have a better deal when it comes to Dreadies. Hey, you may be a bit of a Timmah! right now, but if you still want to kick arse for the Emprah we got this big giant walking robot for you? As opposed to you're kinda dead and stuck in this soulstone on the account of Slaanesh wanting to feast on your soul, but we can stick you in a giant walker, and if it gets destroyed, instant Slaanesh! Of, and extra super crispy fun if you are a twin. Only Chaos offers a worse deal.

    Hemlock D-scythes are my personal favourite slice of cheese in the entire setting. My Dark Heresy GM had a tween Eldar get abducted by a docked Hemlock that he had curiously broken into, which led to a rather interesting dual-part NPC; 1/2 of which knew what it was doing but couldn't speak, & the other 1/2 who was completely out of his depth but could at least communicate with the PCs. Who in their turn essentially saw a toddler holding a heavy bolter, & understandably freaked out.😂

    Hey Majorkill, off topic to this video, but I had a somewhat wacky ass idea on how they could bring in the great Autismo Perturabo into the 40k setting. More specifically, what he would "Be" - Take the idea that his Great Crusade/Horus Heresy design makes him basically a compact imperial knight in forepower and boi didn't the Iron Warriors love their siege weapons and vehicles. Why not for his demon primarch form we kick that up to both combine and push it to the levels of insanity? Perturabo in lore would fill in this crazy niche that the other Demon Primarchs could not and how he could go about this would even get Papa Smurf caught off guard, now this would not be that much of a good idea for miniatures because of this BUT for lore would be bat shit insane. What if, we have Perturabo essentially become a "Transformer" in the almost literal sense, given the Obliterator Virus and demon engines that can typically be seen by the Iron Warriors, what if the concept could be applied to Perty whilst retaining his overall firepower and "Siege" appeal. Where he can warp his body to transform into various vehicles, even taking on excess scraps of metal to add more mass and even make different weapons on the fly. Imagine it, he appears as a typical humanoid Demon Primarch, guns blazing like an A-10 warthog, then when the enemy tries to retreat he just changes into something like a shunked down Baneblade/Chaos Landraider and gives chase? Food for thought, and I only had this wacky idea hours ago, but put your additions/hot takes to it in the replies.

    I'm mentally replacing every 'organic' with Psychoactive. Wraithbone is material made from warpstuff, it's not exactly living. But Eldar find it useful because as natural psykers, a substance like Adamantium that you can manipulate with your mind is pretty dope, even if you need to specialize in it before it starts becoming 'putty' instead of 'barely warm enough metal.'

    In First Edition WH40K, wealth constructs were more like conventional robots (made of metal rather than wraithbone), but controlled by an Elder mind that that been uploaded to a computer (which was what an "infinity circuit" was then). A process that killed the Eldar being uploaded. There were two main sorts of wraith construct then: Spirit-warriors (basically Wraithlords just with a different name), and Ghost Warriors, which were basically smaller, faster, stealthy versions of Wraithguard /Wraithblades (and which were characters rather than squads). Oh, and Eldar also had regular dreadnoughts (which were basically the same as a the spirit warriors, except that they had a pilot instead of an infinity circuit, and so used a different damage table).
