30K LORE - THE SPARTAN ASSAULT TANK

[@baldermort]

30K LORE - THE SPARTAN ASSAULT TANK Tied as my favourite Space marine tanks of all time, the Spartan is a monster of a vehicle. It is a troop transport without compare and a beast that can remove near anything before it.

In exchange for an update on our favorite Inquisitor, I shall excuse the lack of a tale!

😂😂🤣🤣😂🤣🤣🤣. Thanks for your amazing support brother Ser-Smiley. I see you. Always there. It is so darn appreciated.

30k/10

[@CMTechnica]

Seeing this thing get done in plastic with the Age of Darkness box nearly brought tears to my eyes. It’s a Land Raider - already perfect - and BIGGER. All the stuff this thing can take, equip, and carry across the battlefield is absolutely glorious. Top 3 tanks, right behind the Baneblade and just before the Kratos. Friggin love the Spartan

[@Bobby3OOO]

Thank you for this Warhammer 30,000 tribute. This your Wednesday age of heresy tribute.

[@WorldArchivist]

It's unfortunately impossible to play tabletop where I'm at, but channels like these keep my love for the lore alive. Thank you Baldermort, and have fun making the Fists go melty-melty.

[@DirtHermit]

Such a beast of a APC. The sheer Las Power is just beautiful. Looking forward to Friday!!🍻

[@davepappas8810]

Have you ever thought about doing a battle report with a little story involved? Love the channel and am always patiently awaiting new tails from you. Thanks for all you do.

[@JMAssainatorz]

He does have 1 or two around though far as im aware they dident quite do that well. As always hes having a blast though xD

[@seannorthern8854]

Just a thought: The Spartan. When you absolutely, without the possibility of misunderstanding, •must• inform your opponent of their inferior (and soon to be infernal) status.

[@Nobody-he6yw]

I use it in 40k, not for transporting tough. It's just sitting there, killing things (like a Stompa) and refuse to die. Once it survived seven 5+ saves on 1 wound, after that I gave it the name "Unbroken Faith" It is my second favourite in my army, after the contemptor named Demetrius 😊

[@jonathandupree8562]

Dying is for losers!

[@ashtonshephard3852]

We love you Balder! I'm gonna have to check out the Thadeus series;

It's preposterously good :D

[@slackeratlarge575]

Tanks for the memories

[@francoismarion-eu3jq]

As a 1st legion player, i have a relic spartan that was in attendance of the burning of the last church. A mural free handed on its side, is now the personal chariot of marduk sedras, lord of the 23rd order, and master of the dreadwing. It has a free hand hourglass of skulls on its other side, the iconography of the dreadwing and honor markings and campaign badges of Sedras. The spartan is a joy to paint and assemble.

[@lucasberning4556]

Ive just recently found you this past month and binged a great many of your videos. Your joy, the focus on fun, the self developed stories to fit in the universe that inspires you and of course the deep lore dives. All of it reminds me of the energy of the hobby when i first started getting into it back in 5th ed. I will admit i fell away as a lot of the fun seemed to fall away for a time but i am back in, catching up on what ive missed and you help remind me what drew me to it in the first place. Thanks brother baldy for bringing the joy back into the grim darkness of the far future.

A Spartan and Storm Eagle combo.... Peanut butter and Jelly

[@wesleyfravel5149]

A Land Raider is already one of the most dangerous Tanks/ transports of 40K. So making it bigger, adding more weapons, and shields? What’s not to love?

Adding a flare shield and cabin space makes it chefs kiss. :)

So, I've started (for a few months now) the HH storyline. I'm almost at the gates of Terra now (well, actually more than a few more audiobooks till I get there). But in any case, once I'm done with the most important parts of the 30k lore I'm definitely going to start working on lore towards the actual (closer to current 40k era) and finally get back to watching your content, as you know I consider you CANNON :D Anyways, just dropping by to say hi to my favorite skjald.

Another lovely vid as per usual, you truly never disapoint. I do wonder what happened with Abundance Tercius, lots of your older stories end in the characters going to Abundance and yet we've only had 2 parts of the war itself. Has it been canceled?

[@aloser8703]

Convinced me to build mine. They are destined for Alpha legion, so very sneaky giant brick of pain.

[@daltonbalusek]

My Spartan tank originally belonged to the Imperial Fists and saw battle during the Siege of Terra. It was later lost on a forgotten battlefield, only to be found by my RG successor the Genesis Vultures. Much like their name sake, they scavenge battlefields for equipment and lost relics, and so tt's been restored in the chapters colors but does honor its original owners with a small Imperial Fist symbol upon its hull.

[@Historyfrek4ever]

Baldermort is bad mouthing the melty! Spartan got to be the god of tanks for that to happen.

These mighty war machines were used to be the spearhead of a Space Marines tanks, and while they maybe strong in their points that doesn’t mean they were sustainable for the Chapter strength after the Horus Heresy, thus they couldn’t be used at their own for the new age of wars after.

[@robjones7015]

As much as you're right about it being too much an investment/risk in 40k... We've got the plastic kits now. Give them points! Give them points! Don't know why I'm after this, not sure my entire Craftworld Warhost could take this down with 10 termies aboard. And it's nice to have distinct flavour for the 30k game - I don't have a channel to do well enough to get a heresy army, though!

[@baldermort]

That’s an investment IN UNIVERSE. When it comes to playing it? There are already points and stats in legend.

You might think Spartan tanks would be repurposed as mobile command centers for protracted missions using smaller numbers of Space Marines or IG. I mean Space marines can only carry so much ammo, parts, or heavy ordinance.

I went to the pet shop, and the owner said he had a talking centipede for sale. I said ‘no way, centipedes don’t talk.’ The owner promised me it was a talking centipede, so I purchased it and took it home with me. A little later in that evening, I went up to its tank and said ‘alright mate, I’m just popping down the pub if you fancy a few pints?’ The centipede said nothing, I scoffed and went to the pub. The next evening, I thought I’d give it another try, so I went to its tank again and said ‘alright mate, I’m just popping down the pub if you fancy a few pints?’ Still absolutely no response from the centipede, so I went on my way, cursing the pet shop owner. The following evening, I thought I would give it one more try, so I went over to its tank and asked ‘alright mate, I’m just popping down the pub if you fancy a few pints?"’ The centipede replied ‘I heard you the first time I’m just putting my shoes on’
