[@SpartanMDC113]

Their combat effectiveness is due to their ability to slide around the battlefield and suffer no friction penalty

[@harryhowes4647]

SpartanMDC113 hehehe

[@engineermole2688]

They are also know to be followed by Oil takers and are unnuddered

[@murderc27]

It is known

[@Lashrath]

They infiltrate noble houses like.. ok there is that 3 meters tall guy with extensive imperial tattoos and more muscles than 2 space marines.... he simply blends into the crowd.

[@tobiashagstrom4168]

I know they can use holographic tech to appear more or less like normal humans, the Emperor screwed around with this tech quite a bit from what I've heard.

[@Lashrath]

Ah okay... though an emp blackout would be funny as hell... "Lok how strange that Little Jhonny suddenly grew 2 standard meters in height and gained 150 likogramms of muscle since we lost power" :D

[@Lashrath]

Or when he can't fit through doors :D

[@tobiashagstrom4168]

Lashrath I remember it mentioned that a priest guy (who I think was the last christian or something) thought it odd that the man (who unbeknowst to him was the Emperor) made a chair creak when he sat in it. The short story is kinda interesting as well. The Emperor basically goes Richard Dawkins on the priest, in an attempt to decovert him before his church is to be destroyed by his crew, who unbeknowst to the priest are waiting outside. The Emperor fails to persuade him, but the priest deconverts once he sees the Emperor's true form, because he realizes that the figure he had seen before in what he though was a vision from god was actually the Emperor. Being old and just having gotten his home, faith, purpose and decades of identity take from him, he commits suicide by walking back into the church as it's being destroyed.

[@Lashrath]

The story of someone Richard Dawkins-ed to death. Poor guy. Great story though.

[@thewallofguns550]

Kitten is my favorite custode.

[@TopHatdudeman]

Kitten truly is the best custode. He makes EXCELLENT tea!

[@thewallofguns550]

Hatdude man and excelents sponge baths.

[@boooster101]

Kitten-Goldilocks-Sunshine-Graham-Corncob

[@fahmifachruddin5829]

of course he is the best custode, after all... he is a captain general for all that naked guys :V

[@OneMindSyndicate]

We still need to watch that series

[@stephenlanoue5041]

most badass janitors ever

[@Raumance]

After they are done sweeping there is no floor.

[@stephenlanoue5041]

i'm just surprised they don't have plungers on the end of their staves instead of a big, fuck off shiny blade.

[@fahmifachruddin5829]

wait...what janitors ? the custodes ?

[@stephenlanoue5041]

... no, the Ordo Malleus -- yes the Custodes! sheesh dude. try to keep up.

[@kersey2734]

Adeptus Kekstodes HERESY! THE EMPERORS PRESENCE IS ALL THAT IS NEEDED TO KEEP DUST OUT OF THE THRONE ROOM

[@bradwatson1142]

Suggestion: Kitten, the man, the myth, the legend

[@kirillmarine5157]

Brad Watson he is just random custodes who was taken from picture before Horus Heresy Probably dead for 41st millennium

[@aleksander10101]

You forgot to mention that the current Captain-General is the King of Card Games

[@benrobbo2902]

Gyro Zeppeli lol

[@Sereze001]

Gyro Zeppeli and that he owns the soul of Magnus the Nerd

[@MyanmarWildWaters]

Tzeetnch can't throw shade on Kitten!

[@InquisitorMatthewAshcraft]

And ShadowSun's main squeeze 🤣

[@talonharibon8577]

Reading into the comments my oiled abs quivered..

[@Gordon519]

you watch that too?

[@OneMindSyndicate]

Thad what we like to hear

[@GhostBear3067]

When did you last experience friction, aside from the goid kind of course?

[@darthvador12345]

AYYAYAYA! THE OILED ABS ARE GLISTERING WITH AROUSAL AT THIS VIDEO~

[@CrazyDutchguys]

THIS KNOWLEDGE HAS MY BUTTOCKS IN TREMORS

[@jaredsmith1998]

the sensation of friction is all but lost on me!

[@fahmifachruddin5829]

14:07 every time i saw that picture,i can hear emperor swearing in my mind, " FUCKING HORUS?! ".

[@Inquisitor_Lelouch]

already I can hear the pilar men...I mean, custodes theme.

[@SollowP]

Ay ya ya ya yaaaaaaaaaaa

[@Become-Eggplant]

OH sorry, I just like playing it when I'm watching this video. Very Fitting. (No Pun intended)

[@TravisJohnsonncc1701]

Just a note: the Warhammer characters have classicla Latin pronunciations. Legio is pronounced "Leg - ee - oh." Custode is pronounced "Cuhs-toh-days."

[@OneMindSyndicate]

Thanks we will work on that for the future. Latin is awesome we will strive to get it right

[@ConteAgreste]

I disagree. If is real classical pronunciation it should be: leghio (lèghio) and cu-sto-des (custòdes) with accent on ò. I'm italian, and studied latin and greek at high school

[@bobywan6162]

I disagree, whatever we may think, we cannot be sure of how words were pronounced in latin, only educated guesses...

[@john46525]

"Hey guys let's ditch our super cool and practical gold armor for homosexual and totally not practical leather capes!" ^^ Custodes logic.

[@Gordon519]

you watch if the emperor had a text to speach device dont you?

[@john46525]

... Tzeentch does

[@Gordon519]

were is kitty?

[@john46525]

Around?

[@Gordon519]

*face palm*

[@Hussar275]

Anyone came here to get more info about Kitten? xD

[@finnley905]

I love how the Emperor looks at his at his 8ft space marines with superhuman speed, strength and power and thinks "You know? I need them bigger." So he creates 9ft grey knight phsycers with more muscle, faster, and stronger and thinks "Nah, not good enough." So creates, 10ft soldiers bigger, better, harder, faster with better training, weapons and all that good stuff and only then does he think "These might just do"

[@zeanamush]

There aren't nearly enough mentions of Kitten in this comment section. All conversation about the Custodes must involve lots of Kitten.

[@SkiniNinja]

What about kitten???

[@joelkreissman6342]

Hold on, Captain-General, been with the Emperor since the Heresy if not before, more names than anyone has time to recite... Could he be Constantine Valdor?

[@ChanMan257]

Paul Schroeer-Hannemann that's what I'm starting to think fam. Kitten is famous

[@JamesPolymer]

I believe he stands at the center of the gathering at 3:36.

[@michaelrosenstock9187]

SkinyNinja I was so waiting for this comment we need a 40 facts just on the characters of itehttsd

[@johnchukwudum673]

JamesPolymer if you start kaunting from the far left, you'll see Kitten. he is the fifth one.

[@MultiGG2]

Cegorach: "Come ooooon... I know you solitaires play the part of the stripper god, but this is RI-DIC-U-LOUS!"

[@MizantropMan]

"I'm so scared..."

[@voidjockey82]

* Cue Prime Clown *

[@URKKfdf]

To enjoy this video properly, one should have the "pillarmen theme" on a loop in the backgound.

[@courier6875]

URKKfdf done

[@indrickboreale7381]

AYAYAYA!

[@alpacallama531]

You seemed to forget the most important part of some of the custodes. Where they are capable of boomerang-like flight when fighting giant red daemons that get triggered by the mention of the Space Wolves after doing a rather heinous deal in the heat of a most dangerous and threatening moment.

[@MegaKlc123]

Alpha Dumast wha?

[@SkiniNinja]

Logan Parnell watch if the emporer had a text-to-speech device then you'll understand why that's so funny.

[@SkiniNinja]

and love those Promethium baths.

[@seanconley1119]

Alpha Dumast THE WOLVES SEND NUDE MEN AFTER ME!

[@bloodfartmoon2765]

They can also summon Kaldor Draigo

[@Seccc]

Legio is prounounced Lee Jee Oh.

[@stunitech]

Sharklops I laughed out loud at that 😊. Seriously though yes it is indeed lee-gee-oh not lee-go. 👍

[@Terashi]

4:32 How can a battle-hardened warrior be this damn CUTE!?

[@Peusterokos1]

3:51 FOR KITTEN

[@Canma890]

Oh look Kitten belongs here !

[@yudhiadhyatmikosiswono9082]

Oh god not "that" Custodes.

[@Gordon519]

yep....weres kitten?

[@Ice-ou6es]

*Que Pillarman Theme*

[@tristang4138]

I have a feeling if abbadon raids the throne room, rogal Dorn, Constantine, leman Russ, and jhagati khan will be playing monopoly

[@hunterskidmore1672]

Goodwin John khan wouldnt be able to stand still for that long

[@TheZombieburner]

MMMM MMMM MMMMMM! MY GLORIOUS OVERLORD!

[@andrewabbey3669]

In addition to this, there are a MAY be few who are be looking for an perfect Red Aja gem so that they can complete a mask that'll make them immortal and allow them to become the ultimate lifeforms. Can't say for sure.

[@user-qd2fs5sh9d]

I really like the fact that this information is collected on one channel and easy to access. I do, however, wish for a little bit more originality. No offense meant, but I feel like you're just reading the wiki page to me...there are straight up verbatim quotes you use.

[@trenchcoatbandit]

*my loincloth is bursting with anticipation*

[@13Malkav]

fact n.1 about w40k , the closer you are to the emperor, the bigger you are

[@FlynnMTaggart]

What about the fact that when they enter the Pillar Men's theme is heard?

[@snappycenter7863]

You forgot to mention that Custodes like to date Tau.

[@godemperorofmankind4186]

Finally a 40 facts video about the Space Swiss Guards

[@allmight2611]

The comments make me happy

[@pie4]

All Might the new season of my hero academy 2 days ago

[@sylveonmoore1225]

Dammit I was drinking coffee when that happen. Now I have to change my power armor

[@amandafranks5108]

so basically Valdor beat Horus in a punch up. nice

[@pnp072000]

Amanda Franks So does that mean that Adeptus Custodes can beat Primarchs on occasion?

[@Valiguss]

pnp072000 Valdor is described as being at almost Primarch level he is the very best of the customer

[@ep1626]

Where is Kitty?

[@Gordon519]

you watch that too?

[@jerec1267]

KITTEN NOT KITTY KITTEN!

[@JamesPolymer]

I believe he stands at the center of the group at 3:36.

[@GhostBear3067]

Not debriefing the Emperor on the status of the Imperium like he should be, that is for certain.

[@mrtheoristfist4974]

Have you guys watch " if the emperor had text to speech" ?

[@OneMindSyndicate]

Not yet

[@alexandarvoncarsteinzarovi3723]

Super Spartans! :D The second most bad ass Super Soldiers in 40K, second only to the Thunder Warriors

[@newqlar]

It’s been 4 years since the last post of this thread - but it’s worth mentioning that the boy’s in gold are still and will forever be - the truest guardians of the Emperors galaxy.

[@TheDragonfriday]

Wow they’re kinda like the Tenno from warframe. They can slide anywhere and they are super solders, guards, assassination and serve the empire. So many similarities.

[@jkjrkarmia514]

Custodian? Janitorus Adepttus. Mop well, the bleach protects.

[@serotonin.scavenger]

_Pillar Men theme intensifies_

[@guardianofthetoasters2323]

Captain General kitten was the greatest of them all

[@Batlord_Carcas]

The Missing link between Thunder Warriors and Space Marines, with the unique twist of exclusive political bodyguard. Adeptus Custodes are definitely interesting.

[@Michael-ce6fr]

I was listening to this while painting some miniatures and then suddenly 'Ha Gay'... I cracked up.

[@Diomedes1]

Guys can u tell me which soundtrack (or youtube link) this is playing in the background? thx

[@TheSouthernPirate]

ROFL well unexpected snippet was funny

[@OneMindSyndicate]

Glad you liked it

[@ShiryuCain]

3:42 hello kitten.

[@ghoulofmetal]

I knew i shouldn't read the wikia while listening to this, now i can't unhear that some of his line are almost word for word the same as the lexicanum ;/

[@DEMONX62]

Andras Petersen basically of his lines are word for word from the wikis or codexs

[@Matt-md5yt]

been wondering about these guys

[@AngelEncarmine79]

Great video!!! What is the name of the music being played in the background?

[@andrewll.4693]

AWKAEN MY MASTERS!

[@rogerrangel7492]

Suggestion: Dreadnoughts please

[@OneMindSyndicate]

Will do

[@rogerrangel7492]

awesome

[@pnp072000]

Who is physically superior in a contest of physical strength, an Adeptus Custodes or a Thunder Warrior?

[@JulienGiacomo]

Easily an Adeptus Custodes. Thunder warriors in a sense were the the prototype Astartes warrior and the Custodes were a step up above them in the totem pole.

[@pnp072000]

Julien Giacomo I heard that Thunder Warriors were physically larger and stronger than the regular Adeptus Astartes, but an Adeptus Astartes could beat one in hand to hand combat. I also know from this video that the Adeptus Custodes are also larger and physically stronger than the Adeptus Astartes so I'm wondering how tall and strong are they both?

[@Ally.Cat.252]

pnp072000 thunder warriors were stronger and more aggressive than spacemarines. Spacemarines are more tamed etc easier to control

[@OneMindSyndicate]

Raw power I would say a thunder warrior. Thunder warriors are like power lifters where spacemarines are football players or rugby

[@JediNamkrow]

+OneMindSyndicate I like your guy's videos. Just one question for you. What do you think about the movie Event Horizon? Was that Chaos?

[@OneMindSyndicate]

Never seen it, we will have to check it out

[@JediNamkrow]

Thanks for the reply, I was watching one of your vids about the warp, and they pretty much describe the same way of travel then all hell breaks loose. Feels like a WH40k prequel or something.

[@Shotgoat]

What is the music you use on these videos?

[@x-1584]

My understanding from reading the 1st heretic & etc, is that the custodes spears were a combo spear & a semi automatic projectile based weapon too, but I've never heard them being laser weapons alone & just notice the mag clip on the bottom of the weapons frame, unless of course some were indeed laser weapons & some projectile based if in fact that's a likely hood to there arsenal collection.

[@x-1584]

I always thought sense reading the warhammer novels that a combo of ancient greco roman warrior gear combined with future mechanized & electronic tech was hella fascinating. 👽👍

[@rangevipercobra436]

I can't help but think of a heavily wounded barely alive Thunder warrior captain throwing around hundreds of custodes before he falls

[@jesm1194]

so if they were founded prior to the unification wars, that makes them older or around the age of thunder warriors and without the negative traits of the warriors?

[@fyrworks1985]

can we have a video on the Ork Waaaagh/battle mentioned here?

[@andrewpost9335]

Request: blood games!

[@transhumanhivemind3048]

Yeah sure we all know how eager they are to use their hefty spears to penetrate the rear position of the enemy in their blood games. Just ask Kitten. ;-)

[@mrbunnydoctor]

Daily life of these dudes, Adeptus Custodes

[@rejectedwarinc.8614]

Well, Chaos has Heralds of Khorne, and we have the Adeptus Custodes, so as a angry space marine once said, "Come at us bro."

[@chriscalvin5083]

great video

[@cemoguz2786]

Holly shit 3 of them died and emperor write the fucking names on his armor that is some respect.

[@dabeetrayed7315]

Its not a spear its a bardiche

[@rogerrangel7492]

Suggestion: Tyranids specifically Old One Eye

[@Daimon-X]

Valdor is probably dead, Beyreuth was The Adeptus Custodes Captain-General during the War of the Beast(M32)

[@potatobrotato9133]

I wish to more about the half naked Adeptus Custodes from Kitten's personal experience... its for research purposes.

[@mitjase]

what is the food like in the imperium ?

[@rogerrangel7492]

You got me with that clip. touche

[@OneMindSyndicate]

Good

[@Tommy1977777]

Just as a point of info: Legio is pronounced as "Lee-gee-o". As you know, it is derived from the name of ancient roman legions or the roman term for "Legion".

[@xxxxxx5868]

She they're basically the W40k version of the Queen's Guard.... Elite soldiers wasted patrolling a single area protecting a single person

[@cdickenson82]

They aren't spears and they aren't laser weapons. They are Pike's with masterwork bolters built into them.

[@wilsondesmond8022]

“How many blades have they turned, how many plots have they foiled ? On a world of intrigues and lies, they alone have remained true to their oaths in ten thousand years. To the rest of the empire, they are a myth, a legend with barely a place in the universe as most humans understand it. But still they fight, still they defend, still they protect the last thing standing between Mankind and its rightful place as a servant of the Pantheon.”

[@chaplainthor9255]

Suggestion:Dark Eldar Succubi

[@2023skidoo]

Now I get it. So if the Empire is Greendale, that means the dean is the emperor and Warlord Chang -- I mean Kevin -- is Horus, which makes GW's lore worse than crazy.

[@aliondevouringthesun8161]

Are the models already released?

[@kirillmarine5157]

Frontnoise not yet Soon

[@Fedelex91]

Suggestion: machine spirits

[@ernestorodriguez3637]

suggestion; can you do a video on the war games?!

[@trenchcoatbandit]

my abs are glistening

[@mochimoni1975]

When the rich father won the custody of his kids from their mother:

[@fulcrum2951]

How about the three fabulous custodes?

[@serioushamster]

There are 10000 of these super space marine.Crazy

[@gwiber]

Lee-Gee-Oh, not Lee-go. I still say s good as this stuff is. they desperately need a voice producer.

[@technomancerhammerballs8816]

[Aroused Chuckling]

[@zer0skillallheart818]

That's Sanctum Imperialis not Segmentum. The Emperor would consider all of creation his segmentum.

[@firewarrior456]

suggestion: chapter masters of all chapters

[@OneMindSyndicate]

Yes

[@chadsknnr]

Perhaps, the Custodes were of the Thunder Warrior stock, the best and most loyal to the Emperor during the Unification Wars . . . .

[@colonelsanders1349]

Radiyas 13 Mate, the Custodes codex was released....

[@benfrancisco3590]

Kitten is the best custode

[@courier6875]

3:49 I found little kitten he is the one in the middle

[@ugandanknuckles3981]

Can a guardsmen become a custodes, can a space marine become one, can a grey knight become one?

[@jurassicrozzi2456]

No a person must be taken at a very young age to become a custodian

[@TAURUSger]

i want this music >.

[@lordofnothing255]

Thought the spears had bolt guns mounted on them not lasers ?

[@bloodfartmoon2765]

Wait who was created first? Custodes or Thunder warrior? The unification wars were the battles of the Thunder warriors

[@josephstalin6549]

My mind is no fortress, it is an open pasture ravaged by internecine conflict... and chicken.

[@yosophsindi7754]

Can your make one about desert crows

[@user-ob3gy3zo6y]

Can anyone recommend a good book with these guys in it.? They seem really interesting.
