WARHAMMER 40K LORE: THE BADAB WAR Part 1

[@ABorderPrince]

k noticed a fair few word errors will work on this for the next one. sorry lol i had to make like 150 titles and didnt check my work fully. always check and recheck boys....always

[@qigonglungz]

2 and a half hours!!! Man, you can make as many mistakes as you want, everyone is still going to watch the whole thing!!! I hope i didn't offend you in my video, I was referring to those couple of videos where you kind of snickered. You hit the War Hammer scene like a ton of bricks dude!!! I still find it genuinely awesome you left the snickers in!!!

[@ninocuric5290]

And mate don't worry if Inquisition comes for you I have a place for you in the Eye of terror (rent free)

[@midshipman8654]

this was so great! i love the ambiance of this whole thing, it oozes personality, thanks man!

[@JoshuaKevinPerry]

The only thing I dislike is the shuffling images. I think it would be better were it slow. Or more context focused. The maps are a fine image to keep up. Just put a new one up when it makes sense.

With you and oculus imperia, this is truly a golden age for 40K lore.

[@sonofthewolfguardianofthef1214]

Especially so relatively soon after the siege of Vraks.

[@qigonglungz]

Check out "Pawns of Chaos" on his page... possibly my favorite work on there... I was on the road for 2 days, and 2 nights, and it probably got me through the whole trip...!

Refreshed youtube and it said this was uploaded 5 minutes ago. That's 5 minutes of not having this in my life I'll never get back.

Literally your videos help me through yhr night. Work nights and hate my job but luckily I can put headphones on and just get on with it. Nothing like a little 40K lore to get me through the night 😁

Listening to this again after a few years. Wish they would do a black library series about this conflict.

[@sevlow4035]

Me and my freinds have started badab war armies. I'm gonna send them this vid so they get caught up to what's going on

[@andilucas6926]

I'm pretty sure the original three-page article on the Badab War in WD 101 (two pages of which were just colour schemes) was primarily intended to promote the idea of Marine versus Marine games. A very sound idea, as everyone and their dog had a box of plastic beakies and it was relatively expensive to build up a decent-sized force of Orks or Eldar (all metal at the time). :)

[@Combatengineer311]

What armies have you guys picked? One of them better be the space sharks.

[@HyperLethal0100]

Damn I need some friends like yours! That sounds super fun lol! Tell us what faction are you playing? Corsairs? 😎👌

I can see Huron flexing so hard his power armor just bursts off him...as he hits himself in the chest with a power maul, "These abs were made for conquerin'!"

I've been dangerously close to starting a Minotaurs army for the better part of three years now, so i think this may have been the final push. Amazing work man, youre a credit to the hobby.

[@samthomson6087]

Lamenters are beast. They can endure through the absolute worst and not let their moral compass become compromised. However, the minotaurs are undeniably a strong army pick. They just stomp. Are they just? No. Do they stomp? Yes. Picking an army that stomps is understandable.

[@jamesupton5601]

I have ADD, so actually sitting-down and reading-out these tomes is a real struggle sometimes. So I just want to say 'cheers' for doing the hard work for those of us, who sometimes can't manage to. Really appreciate it mate.

[@alexr.3678]

Can you tell which books are the source of this lore. Never heard about books of the badab war in warhammer 40k.

[@jamesupton5601]

@@alexr.3678 Hi mate, these books are from the campaign books series from Forgeworld. They are pretty old now, but you might still find them at the forgeworld store. Amazingly interesting for people who love the background.

[@42Mrgreenman]

I second that, I myself am quite neurotic and find reading for long stretches very difficult, but here it's basically like listening to an audio drama, great to put on in the background while jumping around from one thing to another on the net...

[@calumdeighton]

I'm giving this a full listen and watch!

[@tywyatt2228]

Ofcourse.

[@Vuntermonkey]

I'm giving this many, smaller watches which will eventually be a full watch.

[@highmarshalhelbrecht4715]

Your doing the Emperor's work.

[@marcoburino1000]

great read, the FW books were an amazing piece, still own them. The entire war is the pinnacle of the Imperium mismanagment issues, considering it could have easily being avoided. Hell, if it happened at the ending days of m41 I could see Huron as a loyalist rather than a traitor

[@loreman2803]

YEAH!!!!!! CARCARADON AND MINATORS !!!!

[@barlotardy]

I just listened to all two and a half hours of this in one go whilst painting Flesh Tearers. Amazing stuff!

SOOON

[@andilucas6926]

Excellent work! Looking at the one page history of the Badab War from White Dwarf 101, it's satisfying to see what pains were taken to incorporate as much of that ancient lore as possible. Some of the chapter liveries have changed and the Tiger Claws of WD 101 have been (quite confusingly) split into the Astral Claws and Tiger Claws, but most of the original 'history' is still valid. This is quite a contrast to e.g. the original Ultra-Marines (yes, with a hyphen) lore in WD 97, which has been retconned almost beyond recognition. Huron is indeed the first renegade Astartes character other than Horus to be mentioned in print, though when Horus was mentioned in WD 99 it wasn't yet clear that he was actually an Astartes and not merely a human general. It was all wonderfully mysterious back then in the late '80s... almost as if Rick Priestley was making it up on the fly... ;)

[@wabwabwab2262]

I remember reading about The Badab War in my freinds copy of either the compendium or compilation books. A long long time ago now. I've always been fascinated with this story, the colour pictures of marines painted camouflage and the stipey colour scheme of the Minotours always stuck in my mind. Thanks for the vid prince - your chanel is boss 👍🏻

Your accent and pronunciation are so incredibly similar to the voice lines for the Imperial Guard in the Dawn of War games, that I spent the whole video imagining some grizzled Guardsmen officer recounting this tale. Amazing work

if I may just put a minimal bit of critism: perhaps putting relevant image when you are talking about something, exemple you talked about the maelstrom you could put image of the thing. Hope you see this, I am really looking foward to see the whole serie.
