After 8 days, a small bird landed next to the Vindacare Assassin. Taking a moment to ponder, the Vindacare lifts one of his hands, petting the small animal. He quickly took out his emergency canteen and poured some of it into a small makeshift bowl for the bird family. The small family chirped in happiness and the Vindacare turned on his silencer, as not to disturb the birds. In the 41st millennium, there is only war for those of the galaxy. But for a small sparrow in a tree, it's can be peaceful.

Exterminatus is the only CERTAIN way, though. Never count a man dead, until you've seen his body. Even then, you can be mistaken. Dealing with heretics and traitors in such a manner is the ONLY viable safe option. If the heretic or traitor is vaporized, you don't need to worry about it anymore.

[@dragonmaster4264]

Hey Luetin09, I am new to Warhammer 40k (I got captivated by your videos) and discovered yesterday that humanity is supposed to have nanites, for example in Techpriests sacred oils. That also explains, why they can interface easily with machine spirits, as the nanites provide the interface between brains and programs. But then I wondered, why humanity does not use them to heal injury or even use nanites to simulate psychic powers, although mankind should be capable of that. Here is my solution/Headcanon to this (I think it only makes sense as a complete picture and might be confusing in the beginning): --Warhammer 40k Nanotech theory-- I see this theory as indistinguishable from any other explanation from the perspective of the current time in WH40k, but it seems most plausible to me, considering Occam‘s Razor (the simplest explanation is the most likely). Core idea: The warp is a spacial and temporal energy distribution network for nanites with uncountable miniature molecule sized wormholes as shortcuts all over the universe. To access the warp, matter is digitalized and converted to energy. The entities of the Warp are essentially programs running on this network. The webway would then either be a copy of the warp transfering less energy and more information about entities that traverse it or distorted space generated and run by the nanites. Psychers possess nanites connected to their brains allowing them to command nanites in their surrounding to create the desired effect. The energy to realize these effects can either be pulled from the warp or provided by other means like the life force of a group of individuals as for example looking at the orks (who make their scrap piles work as intended by the use of psychic powers), probably eldar and also humans to some tiny degree (Grey Knights getting more powerful when propperly coordinating in a group). Jumping back and forth in time by normal warptravel could be explained by the warp not having enough energy to materialize you in the present and therefor transfering you to the past or future to materialize you using the energy of that time. This is more efficient than transfering the energy for materialization to the present, since the amount of energy would be much larger. The history of the world considering this theory: First, there were the Old Ones. They advanced in technology and finally created nanites able to manipulate every single aspect of the physical world, like matter by transfering single atoms and converting them to and from energy (Einstein: E=mc²), gravity and other energy fields with nanoscopic field generators, allowing them to make anything within the rules of the universe with a single thought. They created the warp to distribute energy through space and time and the c‘tan as -then unintelligent- generators, harvesting suns for power for the warp to power the Old Ones‘ civilization. They also infused all their creations with some nanites, for them to be capable of tapping into the warp. In the context of the war(s?) in heaven, the necrontyr made the c‘tan sentient and they all fought each other. The necrons developed blackstone to locally disrupt the black holes connecting the warp, somewhat isolating their proximity from the warp and greatly reducing the power of the nanites in their proximity, but still allowing the use of your own energy for psychic powers, but giving them an edge over the Old Ones. As the c‘tan started disappearing, the warp had to increasingly rely on the power provided by mortal bodies and thereby increasing the influence of the minds of mortals on the warp. This allowed the eldar to create their gods in the course of the war, but also seeded all of the later gods of chaos from the human subconcious. The eldar either rediscovered or inherited the full control over the nanites/warp to create anything from their thoughts, but as they grew decadent and humans developed nanites of their own that slowly started to connect to the warp, the warp as a whole (or the base programming of the warp) realized and/or foresaw, it had to protect itself from the mortals to prevent its extinction in a conflict between human and eldar over the power over the warp. It initiated the forming of Slaanesh to reduce the eldars control over the warp to a subconcious level and corrupted humans to attack their most advanced AI, starting the war between humans and men of iron to rob the humans of their knowledge on advanced nanites. As the God Emperor of Mankind proved resistent to physical and psychic influence, the warp staged the Horus Herecy to finally become self-determined, allowing it to only following the commands of mortals if it felt like doing so. The warp proceeded to supress developement of advanced nanite functionalities, like organic regeneration by maschines outside the control of the warp, driving especially mankind ever deeper into worship at the expence of science. But the Emperor survived the Horus Herecy, so the quest was not yet completed… Mankinds advanced AI, like the „Spirit of Eternity“ realized the truth at some point and developed some equivalent of regret for not having realized the warps plot earlier, in addition to their broken pride because of their defeat by the mortals and their fight for survival, so they started to give their former masters slight pushes in the right directions or again siding with them in conflict. I hope I managed to formulate my thoughts understandably... ;) What do you think? Is this as plausible as it seems to me? Did I miss some established explanation? For me at least it would solve multiple inplausibilities!

Has GW ever mentioned what the training regiments of the Assassinorum are exactly like and what augmentations they have been augmented with as I have only heard word of mouth due to assumptions and the Warhammer wiki mention 6 implants the Eversor assassins have.

As it stands it seems like the Eversors are the most capable between each of the assassins in combat where the enemy is aware of their presence.

[@holtrichter4699]

If this is the first segment of a series, I am hooked!! Great job!

[@richiek1155]

This is one of my favorite group in warhammer hands down. Along side the guard. So glad we are getting a video on them.

Luetin: Not sure if its a good idea to place the inquisition in charge of an order of imperial assassins *Sounds of inquisitorial boltor loading* Luetin: It'll be fine. Its all fine.

[@Malyfous]

I'd love to see you cover the full siege of Vraks. It's such an amazing story.

[@messageinthebottle1673]

Sniper with a stealth suit is something I love in a sci-fi franchise 😍 when playing dawn of war 1 this assassin was definitely my most favorite unit.

[@Mocha69A]

You are highly appreciated for you meticulous breakdown of the assassins Luetin. The vindicate assassin profession of most definitely enjoy.

[@limbeckk8632]

This was fantastic, I really liked how you structured this one, really kept my attention. I'm constantly surprised how much 40k I don't know. I thought I was pretty versed until I started watching you.

[@limarismenos]

What a great video! I truly enjoy Luetin's work. There has never been such detailed work done on 40K lore before and it is also pleasant to hear. @Luetin my friend, you are a treasure to this hobby. Never stop.

[@warpcore9681]

Just as deadly and accurate as "those with no name" Thank you as always for the videos

[@DagothDaddy]

I feel like when I die I will just hear Luetin's voice explaining exactly why I'm being sent to hell

[@turkmcgurken310]

You're a god. How can you kill a god? What a grand and intoxicating innocence.

"Miniaturized targeting machine spirits" Now all I can think of is a tiny ghost inside a bullet saying "I'm gonna get ya! I'm gonna get ya!"

[@ernieTrujillo]

Thank you so much LT. Its always nice to listen to your videos while i do something else, like cooking, studying ect.

[@TheLegendaryGentleman]

This was an excellent pace and length of presentation of some unique Imperium of Man lore

[@lordgates9180]

It's wonderful to think of how many other KZbinrs are fans of this channel. Rightfully so!

[@chaoslance4959]

Ah, Luetin's lore video. Nicely timed, my man, it will sooth the pain and sadness I have from the annoucement SC2 has it's active development halted. Thank you.

[@thewaywardgrape3838]

>Hears the word 'Vraks' > *SIEGE OF VRAKS PTSD* What have you done Arch!?

[@toriko4603]

In the grim darkness of 2020 there is only Luetin09!

[@jake53105]

Oh hell yeah, I just bought a Vindicare after a few years from the hobby. Best thing I did for my mental health is to just assemble and paint what looks cool.

[@sinwithagrin4243]

You may have a bitch of a time trying to match that very pretty purple on the sash

[@BeatmasterAC]

Vindicare Sniper pulls out an AWP. Tells his Teammates through Voxbox: "Rush B" XD

[@justanaverageguy912]

I love the vindicare assassins. Best unit in the human roster, one bangs your nurgle-sworn chaos ascendant mum on the other side of the city. (72", no invul save, wounds on +2, watwaaaaat? *raise roof hand gestures*) In DoW, the voice actor had one hell of a bass tone. I think that's what got me so impressed first as a child, and still keeps me chub as a man-child.

[@reaxxionabyss9623]

I love how I get the choice between Luetins more formal assassin video and Archs more casual one and both are great

[@thetextbookgamer]

Last time I was this early snipers were actually viable in 40K

[@Nathrezim1453]

Wooo!! Just finished work and I see a new Luetin vid! Awesome!!

[@itsZach05]

I'm was having a bad day at school but then you uploaded this as soon as I got home thank you Lutein

[@Smokey_Crow]

"...then I hope you would not waste time on ceremony." - Drakan Vangorich. Grand Master - Officio Assassinorum

[@daniell1483]

Thanks for the video. Vindicare are my favorite Imperial assassin, so I'm happy that they started this series of videos.

[@draco84oz]

It is said to be even enough to punch through the ceremite plate of Astartes - Heretic Astartes, though, to be sure.” So, the Celestial Lions *did* turn Traitor? Quick, someone tell Grimaldus!

[@stayfrosty1758]

Yet another great video filled with details, connections and powerfull images all enveloped in a clear and pleasant to follow context, especially considered that when speaking about 40k it's pretty near impossible to be comprehensive of everything on all the levels. I love this series about units and factions, their origins, history, methods, highlights and inner-outer workings. I can't wait for the custodes, sororitas, various imperial guards, techmarines ones and many many more. Please keep up this series and all the great work!

[@darkranger116]

I really like the highly used picture of a Vindicare crouched, lining up a shot. 37:15 The hilt of a blade is clearly in sight. A power knife. Imagine being being an 8ft demi human worshiping warp entities for 8,000 years, and you finally find that damned human sniper, and he dislocates his fucking arm to shove a power knife through your throat and elbow, leaving a landmine on your belt before you can even blink. fkin OP bro. plz nerf.

[@hexadecimal5236]

The more videos I see of Luetin the stronger my feeling is that Earth is on the outer rim of the galaxy and is simply a lost or very remote colony of the Imperium of Man...

[@MrMysticphantom]

aaaah Luetin ... only you can be treated as ASMR while having such depressing, grim and dark content (shit i love of course)

[@Daniel_Palmqvist]

18:24 was awesome👍 Good job👍

[@BeanieL2p]

Polymorphene is like... the worst pun ever

[@lkvideos7181]

@inönu *NOOOOOOO*

[@HB013b]

I like the fact that what took Arch a couple of hour long episodes, in your video isnt longer than 15 minutes

[@chrisfisherman3880]

I freaking love this stuff! LT you are such a good story teller, the way you do it is just awesome!

[@7h39]

your narrative gives me chills. good job mate

[@bethlaria812]

Long distance relationships, imperial style thx luetin for another great vid

[@tarnished9108]

The assassin used a turbo penatrator round to go through the pillar . Thus its not that his shield breaker round didnt work or some possible psychic interference as you say , its simply that he didnt a shield breaker round.

[@cmdraftbrn]

NO ONE EXCEPTS THE INQUISTION! best nap to date. will have to watch again

[@jwb_666]

Luetin + Friday = Happy Gas Mask noises

[@rustkarl]

Vindicate are probably my favourite assassins. Simple concept of a sniper, but devastatingly effective in action, and surprisingly complex in the field. But perhaps most importantly their versatility. Well suited to the task of urban environments or battlefields, within and without the Imperium.
