IMPERIAL CRUSADES IN WARHAMMER 40000

IMPERIAL CRUSADES IN WARHAMMER 40000
The Imperium of man, the largest empire in the galaxy, is most often on the defensive. But sometimes it goes all out on the attack. And it is the Crusade that is the usual format for these gargantuan armies and fleets who go to reclaim areas of the galaxy, or to destroy specific identified threats. They are not as simple as one might think.

[@derekrivard626]

😮As always, Baldermort, your work excels, your prose glitters and you somehow manage to make topics that often should make modern civilized people absolutely horrified and repulsed (like the worst totalitarian, religious fundamentalist hash ever made from the ruins of scientific materialism) and instead you make us love it! You are great, sir! And, you are evil! ;)

I thought whenever the Imperium wanted a crusade they called upon the DeathKorps of Kreig, They have to be held back to stop them sacrificing for the Emperor.

[@lankycide77]

The extra stories you orate in these lore videos always makes them so much more impactful. Just one crusade, taking four generations to prepare for, this would in and of itself make for an epic movie. And yet, it's just one small part of what is this universe. Dang, I love Warhammer 40k.

[@paulellington1505]

Alot of people want to give Gulliman shit as the weakest or most useless of the Primachs but with his mind and his skills he is exactly the kind of guiding hand the Imperium needs. Anyother Primarch except for possibly Sanguinius wouldn't have been able to set the Imperium back on a sustainable path forward. So respect Poppa Ultra-Smurf

[@RussellWilliams736]

It's funny when you mention that people say the numbers in the army can't be that large. I always found the numbers mentioned in almost every written record of a war in 40k, whether codex fluff or novels was seriously understated.

[@baldermort]

Same. But that;s us I guess. :)

[@robertkb64]

My head cannon: Imperial numbers are measured the way naval tonnage is, but the ton. So the USS Iowa weights forty five thousand tons, not ninety million pounds standard displacement. So when a book says there were fifty thousand dead guardsmen I read that as fifty million (a thousand thousand is a million, so it’s easy math). Numbers are probably still a bit low, but it’s at least plausibly close then.

[@rgambl2]

[@lepszykomentator3757]

NO PITY! NO REMORSE! NO FEAR!

[@Gorbz]

When thinking about how big armies need to be in order to conquer a planet, just keep these figures in mind: The Great War lasted 4 years. 10 million men died The extent of land that changed hands was roughly the equivient of Poland. The entire war was, by and large, contained within Europe, barring some operations in other continents Scale up the numbers for that war to cover the entire planet, and you are looking at billions of men to fight a planetary war. And that is just one planet out of entire sectors that can be the target of a crusade.

[@thesilentninja9255]

My problem with the numbers in 40K is they are ridiculously small for the undertakings that are portrayed.

[@80krauser]

Even with how strong an individual Guard regiment should be with not only their lasguns and grenades, but their heavy stubbers/autoguns, multilasers, lascannons, mortars, melta guns, plasma guns, combat servitors, and their supporting armoured, artillery and air units. Given that I can give the Guard a boost to the individual unit compared to modern day units but still. And can we please stop pretending that a mainline regiment from a civilized or especially Hive world is less well equipped than modern day troops? There’s pragmatic logistics, Grimdark and then there is just lazy writing. Sure their kit may weigh a bunch and the combat computer system in the Leman Russ is some poor sod’s torso wrapped in metal and giant cables in his eye sockets but it should be there darn it!

[@NoTimeAllTime]

I have always thought that too, aside from the crew sizes of warships, I have always thought that the number of men in regiments and invasion forces are about ten times smaller at least then they should be.

[@michelecastellotti9172]

Why, I am almost certain that this occasion even brings a smile to *The EMPEROR's* metaphysical visage! I've heard our blessed discorporated Imperator's voice, quiet and distant, yet deep and hale still, declaring: *'Praise to Baldermort, mine own Faithful Servant! His voice is the Imperium's voice, My Will is done through his works! Say on, good Baldermort! You carry out a Crusade of knowledge, which shall now no longer be occluded from Mankind.'* Or something like that... I'm pretty sure it was Him, anyhow 🤔 probably... 😁
