These WK40k cutaways are great. Glad to see an actual doctor break down a space marine. Marines are definitely hard to kill but not impossible which explains why they are almost immortal but few live to be over a 1000 years old and some got put into dreadnoughts.

[@Mythantor]

Marines can actually age though they do it very slowly (I believe on average somewhere around 600 years). As well as dreadnoughts marines that suffer from old age or other untreatable injuries often serve aboard the fleet or on the homeworld training recruits or other more administrative roles such as in logistics. For many chapters there is no dishonour in holding such as role as they are neccesarry for the chapter to function.

[@mattstakeontheancients7594]

@@Mythantor of corse just to the people of the imperium they are “immortal” but agree they do age slowly but imagine few make it to say Dante’s age of 1500. Honestly curious how old custodes get as they are supposedly more advanced or changed on a genetic level.

[@woodlefoof2]

@@mattstakeontheancients7594 there are some custodes that fought during the unification wars that still meet the extremely high standards of custodes even while being as old as the first person to figure out farming would be today. custodes who have their reaction time slowed by just a few milliseconds are no longer qualified. When this happens they turn in their armor and act as the “eyes of the emperor” and play more of a support role with the information network of the imperium, keeping watch for any threats and passing the information along to the active custodes. Which does mean that while the custodian guard have never exceeded 10,000. There are an unknown number of immortal custodes spies all over the galaxy. Who, while they are unfit for duty as a custodian guard, can probably still body most space marines if they felt the need. And I assume act as assassins when they feel the need.

[@bilbobagend8155]

@@mattstakeontheancients7594 I believe the average natural lifespan of marines is up to a marine's specific gene-seed, which all comes with minor and major differences between the different primarchs.

I forgot my citations though, so take it with a bottle of salt.

Being in the 21st century, could we really confirm that an extra-physical realm adjacent to ours doesn't exist? We don't know the origins of consciousness, life, or the universe in general, so why are we so confident about what's out there?

The Oolitic Kidney works with the Secondary Heart, and may even be directly connected. I expect that when poison enters the body of an Astartes the secondary heart redirects blood away from the primary heart to the Oolitic Kidney for filtering out the toxins. That means the pump is the 2nd heart.

[@Afrologist]

Excellent point, I never thought of it like that, but it totally makes sense.

[@trebacca9]

His comments about artificial valves in the circulatory system work too. Maybe the primary heart keeps the lungs-brain-heart loop going separately, to prolong the safe duration of downtime. If there's contamination there too, you can perhaps have the oolytic kidney have two parallel filtration paths, one for each sub-loop, and extra valves and emergency bypasses in the circulatory system that get triggered by different compounds or damage. That way, you can semi-selectively isolate different loops to rapidly clean them, with the added benefit of having basically internal tourniquets in case of severe bleeding or traumatic amputation.

In regards to the melanchromatic organ, it should be noted that during the Great Crusade, there were units of space marines called Destroyer Squadrons, and these squads would wield NRBC weapons which often resulted in them looking cancerous and bloated and sick due to the constant exposure to high levels of acute weaponized radiation. Edit: at 10:54 it looks like thats a Dark Angels destroyer squad, given the volkite and grenade launcher weapons

[@DoctorM42]

In both RPGs and lore Oolitic Kidney doesn't give immunity to poisons, aside from very weak ones (which tragically includes alcohol). It just lowers the damage you take from poisons and in case of very lethal ones gives you some extra time before it kills you.

Dr. Chris, your videos are tremendously informative, and I LOVE the way you delve into the material you're talking about and really take the lore seriously, even using some of the memes from the community. Your heart is in the right place. Well, so long as you haven't decided to start space marine conversion and put in a second one! I would love to see you cover some of the extended medical lore around Mass Effect, it's one of my favorite series. It'd be interesting to see your take on things like Krogan physiology or the biotic abilities that some species manifest, or even some of the in-depth stuff around the Genophage might be interesting to see explained from a medical perspective. I was always into the physics and technological side of the lore in the games and the biological/medical stuff kinda went over my head. Would love to see it. Either way, keep up the fantastic work!

I've enjoyed this series since it began, it's really unique content from a perspective we don't often see in the 40K fandom. I do have one tiny nitpick in that skaven are from Warhammer Fantasy / Age of Sigmar, not 40K, but honestly it still works in context. Skaven use poisoned weapons all the time, can't imagine they wouldn't if they had to fight a space marine for whatever reason. :P Also, when you mentioned that space marines wouldn't be allowed to smoke, I thought of a lore detail you might enjoy. The Space Wolves chapter, being essentially space vikings, were not pleased with the fact that their Astartes biology neutralizes alcohol. They solved this problem by using plants native to their homeworld to make a drink called Mjod which, in addition to being very potent alcohol, also contains toxins that temporarily shut down the oolitic kidney, thus allowing them to get drunk for short periods of time. Needless to say, it is not fit for consumption by regular humans.

Great vid but just a small nitpick Skaven are mostly prominent in the fantasy setting yes they do exist in 40k but a space marine would probably never have to deal with them coz even average humans can purge them easily due to well the technological advancements and common sense (which sometimes people lack in 40k but you get it) Their weapons were mostly made crudely and from scraps so they probably wouldn't have any good equipment anyways... But still love the vid ❤

Skaven in fantasy are more magically and scientifically advanced than the humans, just lacking any notion of health and safety (on average stuff is 1 better, 20% cheaper and has a 1/6 chance of blowing up ) .

actually folks, the skaven do exist in 40k, they are simply recognized (by the imperium) as one of the stable mutant variations. just like the various beastmen, ogryns, ratlings etc. because All the different beastmen, and the skaven and various other types of 'stable mutants' are all choas worshippers the imperium simply lumps them all together under 'mutant'. Only the mutants deemed to have mutated because of environmental factors are allowed to live - eg squats, orgyns and ratlings, ALL mutants deemed to have mutated due to chaos are to be purged, and the imperium doesnt really care to make distinctions. Same goes for zombies, undead, probably several perfectly healthy xeno races etc etc.. all classified as chaos mutants.
