Sup, I'm the guy that told Matt about the Promethium thing being 140,000x times more potent than gasoline. You see, in the Caiphus Cain Novel "Caves of Ice", he's gotta blow up a bunch of Necrons. So he drowns them in 8,000,000 Liters of Promethium before blowing it up. A techpriest - or some other technophile dude - says that the explosive force was in the range giga-tonnes. Plural. Know how much energy at least giga-tonnes gives off, and compare that gasoline, gives you a difference of 140,000x. Because you know... 40k doesn't understand how math works.

He vanished for most of those years and only returned to save Vior'los and the Enclave Worlds from Tyranid invasion. He had to recover his battlesuit from the Farsight Museum. -The 9th Legion were thought to be so unstable that Malcador himself named them the Revenant Legion (because of their brutality, blood-lust and tendency to eat dead friends and foes). They were eventually sanctioned by Dorn and broken into small warbands, only to be drawn back as a single legion when they were united with Sanguinius. -Grey Knights have their original names psychically removed from their memories upon recruitment (so their true names remain unknown). The names they receive upon elevation to the brotherhood are all drawn from the true names of daemons. -The Ultramarines are the 13th Legion. The Legio 13th Gemina was one of Caesar's legions and the one with whom he crossed the Rubicon, starting the civil war, and ultimately overthrowing the Roman Republic. - Eldar ghost weapons can only be wielded by wraith constructs as they contain spirit stones from the Crone Worlds occupied by spirits too malicious to enter the Infinity Circuit. Their will is powerful enough to overcome and consume the spirits of the living, claiming their body for their own.

The "imperial knights were originally farming equipment" is a weird meme since it's commonly parroted yet not at all backed up by lore. Knight suits were always meant as a defense system for colonists in the dark age of technology, and the pilots for the knight suits were specially selected due to the mind altering effects of the throne mechanicum. The closest thing I can find that even remotely mentions this is a throwaway line on the imperial knight 1d4chan article, which is not at all a valid source, and even then still refers to it as a case of military equipment being repurposed for farming/construction and not the other way around. The misconception has spread to other 40k vehicles, like the leman russ, which people say was originally a tractor, despite a lack of any source, and it seems to originate from the rhino, which in the DaoT was classed as an exploration and defense vehicle, so even then it's not really different from it's current role as an APC.

Fact #1: The ork klan of Bad Moonz are the richest group of orks to exist within ork society because their teeth regrow the fastest 2# Orks believe that certain colors improve in specific performance, - Red goes faster, Yellow is the most explosive, Purple is the sneakiest color, Blue is lucky. 3# Ork technology works because they Believe it to be so, confusing the hell out of the Admech 4# Orks are practically immortal by design, growing in size & darker in skintone the more they fight 5# Orks don't have genitals, they reproduce through shedding fungus in the air, hence why fire is one of the better ork deterrents.

Rat servitors exist and in the first edition of 40k Zoats were Tyranid diplomats

[@Speeds_Gaming_Corner]

belisarius cawl managed to make modifications on his brain by removing it from his skull and putting it back in with no further help from anyone else. -Horus heresy series book 49: Wolfsbane

[@matthatter5099]

I’m not surprised. He’s a genius and could probably do it with the equipment on his body I.e servo skulls and extra arms

[@ΒαγγέληςΠρίντεζης]

#80, WHICH CHAPTER! i must know so i can make my space marines after them and equip them all with flamers and meltas.

[@ManiacVF]

Flame Falcons

[@Xx_deadmeme_xX]

I think I might be the flame falcons/Phoenix brethren (rumored to be the same chapter) but there could be another chapter that also has that gene-flaw

[@Arclightning355]

Sadly the flame falcons were deemed mutants and were exterminated by the inquisition if I remember correctly

[@Headywon]

I mean if you want to run Flamers and Meltas on Marines you could just run Salamanders

[@matthewolsen103]

Flame Falcons. I wish they were popular enough to get colors at least, they seem cool as fuck to me but they don't get any attention and are a sidelines chapter at best

[@noblegalifreyan4551]

I just love the amount of varied content coming from this channel. I hope we get painting tutorials.

[@ryanmatthews3609]

5:23 what is the diamond shaped organ in their heads for?

[@saximaphone]

The best part about 40k lore is that it's all based on accounts by unreliable narrators, to the point where GW purposefully includes contradictory lore even within the same book. It cements the theme that nobody can be trusted as well as give writers and fans a lot more creative freedom and less strict rules to follow.

[@StrangerForsythe]

Forge World Agripinaa lures refugees from the Eye of Terror with safety and then turns them into mindless servitors Forge World Lucius won a war of attrition with Hive Fleet Leviathan since their robot production out paced the ability of the tyrranids to replace troops

Fun fact for you Magikarp. New Deathwatch Space Marines during Deathwatch orientation are strapped down to a chair with a VR goggles and a tactile feedback ...thing and then they are forced to watch snuff films of Space Marines in their final last moments against Xenos, so they get to watch their cousins die and feel their cousins die.

[@thomassallee7777]

Fun Fact: An Imperial Fist holds the title for "Coolest Name Ever" and his name is Slaughter Koorland. I will not budge on this opinion, many have tried and failed.

[@justinreynolds731]

[@fuckologic1202]

I'm sorry, but the title for "Coolest Name Ever" belongs to a senator in Poland, whose name is Gniewomir Rokosz (Rageloving Insurection) This man actually freakin' exists and is still alive

[@ZombiePotatoSalad]

*I AM SLAUGHTER, GREATEST HERO OF THEM ALL!*

[@lucas45389]

There is a Imperial fist that is shorter than the average space marine, he got so swoll in the gym that his armor wouldn’t fit him

[@cousinzeke4888]

In fact, his armor had to be refitted three times until ultimately he was ordered to stop getting bigger.
