Yes. And he who stands with me on space Scotland shall be my brother

I was on the fence about Naerina being a new narrator on the channel, but I've been won over. She has a great tone and pacing. Warm welcome!

[@10dice]

Thank you so much. ^^

i just struggle to listen to southern accents, they all grate on my ears. sorry. its not her specifically its just generally the southern accent isnt pleasent to listen to (all southerner accents inc RP)

[@10dice]

@@cyberash3000 To each their own. I have learned my accent at school and they tend to prefer RP in foreign language education here. Or that was the case when I was a pupil.

[@kriegkorpsman402]

Question: What would happen to a human in the modern 40k universe who was born with wings like sanguinius? Assuming that the location is the typical hive city. Would he/she be lynched or worshipped?

[@kybercat7]

99.9% either shunned or killed as a mutant, muties come in all shapes and sized and bird like ones no doute happen. most citizens think of the primearchs as distant legends or rulers far above. while under hive mutant gangs are a lot lot closer to there lives. if however its a would claimed by a chapter or successor chapter there's a small chance they have some kind of local legend about there primearch being reincarnated after death. but thats a very rare example.

[@kriegkorpsman402]

@@kybercat7 yeah i was wondering because i thought that i read somewhere that sanguinius in particular is still venerated by alot of imperial citizens.

[@Crom_Apsotle]

Living saints have wings, they would be worshipped

[@dominusbalial835]

Very very high probability as being murdered, Mutant flith. Sanguinius is a primarch and was around before the imperial truth or modern day imperium griped baal. Additonally a primarch even as a child was far superior to a human in combat abilities. Konrad Curzed first meal was a human after digging himself out of the ground. (they covered over the crator of his gestation pod crash)

[@kennycai8695]

A part of me is really hoping that the Storm Wardens are descended from the War Hounds/World Eaters, and yeah, I know there is that stigma of being the gene-son of Angron, but with the benefit of hindsight, I like to imagine that the Storm Wardens are a "what could have been", a version of the old War Hounds and where Angron never had the Butcher's Nails implanted into his head (spoiler: Angron was actually pretty bro-tier prior to getting the Nails, and was a latent psyker, who took the nightmares of his fellow enslaved gladiators so they can rest easy while he dealt with their anger and sorrow, the Nails pretty much destroyed that section of his brain, if you have not guessed yet). There are just too many coincidences with the Storm Wardens to say maybe their gene stock came from the War Hounds. The obvious one is the color scheme of blue and white, which was the same one as the War Hounds before they rebranded themselves as the World Eaters. The population of Sacris has distinct Gaelic influences, which is shared by the ancient Celtic people who warred (and also enslaved to be gladiators, among other roles) against the Romans. The "overwhelming force" doctrine of the Storm Wardens matches the old War Hounds, but at least the Wardens incorporated vehicles rather than charge in blindly, which coincidentally was what the Jacobites did by incorporating musket fire with their signature Highland charge. Even the martial culture bit came from the War Hounds before the legion fell to the Ruinous Powers. Not really a full on "butterfly effect", but again, had the War Hounds not fallen to the Ruinous Powers, I think the Storm Wardens are a distant descendant of the XII Legion, free of Chaotic taint for the most part.

8:17 - Underestimating the Greenskins is a fast route to the grave...or more likely their stomachs. | Ah yes, narrow passages negate superior numbers. | So we can eliminate traitor stock and those with a high risk of instability...so they're either Ultrasmurfs, Dark Angels, Imperial Fists, Iron Hands or White Scars.

Has an Ogryn ever been encased in something akin to terminator or dreadnought armour in 40k lore? If not, why not?

[@Galster1908Dev]

I think I've read that is not possible, because even for normal humans, the act of becoming an an spacemarine is super dangerous.

[@RommelTesla]

They're claustrophobic. They can't even ride in vehicles, fully encased in armor would drive them mad

[@derekdrake8706]

A space marine chapter with a tragic past. Like every chapter lol. You don't breathe in 40k and not have a tragic past.

[@NemFX]

I think the Storm Wardens would be bros with the Scythes of the Emperor.

[@sethclark2802]

Midnight crew

[@zachthompson6382]

Do you believe that traitor marines regret their choices? cause I have read several tales that show several chaos marines hating their current state of existence and their choices that led to their fall. Such as the the tale of the ancient awaits which you did a brief video on, sort of. In that tale I read how the thousand sons seemed to look back on the marines they once were with a since of longing and saw themselves in the defiance of rylanor. I know many marines are in fact very satisfied with their new lot in life yet I cannot help but feel legionnaires from the thousand sons and perhaps a few rare few of the other legions deeply hate themselves for allowing themselves for becoming little more then puppets to the very thing they once wanted nothing more then to destroy
