We should all aspire to be like Praesagius in these dark days.

[@alexfgenualdi]

Man, so many of these videos end with "but that grim story will have to wait until I can choke it out through my tears."

[@OculusImperia]

Such is life in the Warhammer universe.

[@rangelo7281]

Too bad Praesagius didn't meet and work with Vulcan and the Salamaders. Salamanders Techmarines and Forge Masters working on Titans...

[@XraynPR]

I mean if they wdre restocked in a mere 6 years to primus grade strength, that Forgeworld must be amazing

[@chrisnunez5899]

Emperor bless you, historitor. You do the imperium a great service.

[@BlizzardofKnives]

I can’t remember the exact quote, but in Galaxy in Flames one character asks another why good men have to die every time someone tries to do something right. The response, because that’s the Imperial Truth.

[@zacharysemmer8258]

I keep coming back for the opening. To be a paragon... one must sacrifice. Gives me chills every time

[@daemonofdecay]

That White Dwarf synergy

[@OculusImperia]

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.

[@daemonofdecay]

Oculus Imperia Was gonna say, considering the time it takes to make a video, there must have been a wonderful moment in the editing room when you glanced at the latest white dwarf and saw a familiar name.

[@garypower864]

Can someone explain maybe I’m just being daft but I’m clueless

[@TheIllangel]

It might seem a strange thing, but the beauty, care, and passion of your storytelling bring me comfort on the darkest of days. 40k forever has a special place in my heart, and your talent is no small part of that magic. I know all good things eventually end. Until that sad day, I'll be following and supporting your art with respect and something approaching reverence. Ave Imperator.

[@YujiroHanma682]

Oculus Imperia, eminent Remembrancer, you do the Imperium proud. You are a shining beacon of knowledge in these dark days in the Imperium. More and more people tune in to your vox feeds, and we are ever grateful for it. Your knowledge, your commentary, tentative as you may be with certain subjects, not without good reason of course, is blessed work. With every entry you make, the Imperium is smarter for it. The Emperor, beloved by all, should he walk amongst mankind once more, will no doubt reward your efforts, for he valued knowledge, for you do your work for the Imperium, for your heart beats for He Upon the Golden Throne, for your soul shines for Him. Ave Imperator. Terra Invicta.

[@InfamousSirHellfire]

One of the only voxers outside of my mutuals on the voxnet that I MUST watch whenever you upload. Always a joy to see your work towards completing what must be a truly insurmountable task, considering the scope of our universe. Thank you for all your effort Oculus Imperia, you've given us few who never would've invested in this universe otherwise, an extremely accessible in-road to fall deep into this plane of existence and all the glories and horrors it holds for us

[@EvMund]

18:46 was built up so perfectly that it physically hurt me when he sighed, thinking about the betrayal at calth

[@barrythompson7336]

We missed you Oculus. We of the Inquisition!!!

[@Mysterialic]

@CreedOfHeresy Little do you know, his actual High Gothic name is Inquisitor Bartholomius Thomasson.

[@johncherrybone4835]

@CreedOfHeresy u would know about the inquisition 😆

[@jamesrichards802]

Lol inquisitor barry is a great idea for a book

[@inquisitorgarza312]

True warriors of the Machine God, and our most glorious Imperium under the Emperor rule. They were true warriors of the Imperium of the Great Crusade, and they were examples of how the Mars and Terra could become if given the chance. One must remember that Mars was an independent realm one that was bound by a oath of loyalty, and many of the Titan Legions were more loyal to Mars than to Terra and to the Emperor rule, but not this Legion who perhaps saw more beyond the future than others Titan Legions. This perhaps was a boon to the Emperor early conquest of the Great Crusade whose ideals were fought for, and though it was the Space Marines Legions that received most of those triumphs, but it was the Titan Legions that broke worlds and turn them to ash, though perhaps not this Titan Legion.

[@jesseberg3271]

You know, I'm beginning to think that the Oculus doesn't _want_ to cover the heresy. So many records edge up to just before the betrayal and then, "...but that is a record for another time." or something similar.

[@morlath4767]

As someone whose WH40K experience is the dearly departed Total Biscuit's lyrical waxing of the franchise and decriment of its PC games and the (still currently) binging of your channel, there's something that has very much struck out to me. That being, for all of the Emperor of Mankind's "Imperial Truth," the dude did practically _EVERYTHING_ he could to be considered a walking, living, breathing deity. His quotes are rife with religious "worship me" wordage. I find the contrast absolutely fascinating.

[@The_Red_Slayer]

One of the most underrated Titan legions in my opinion.

[@johnd2058]

Grimdark: "That's a nice legio... _FOR ME TO POOP ON!_"

[@TheBigbrother013]

It blows my mind you dont have more subscribers. I love this and your other works!

[@OculusImperia]

Share any videos you love to help mitigate that! :D

Thanks for all the titanic lore you share, it's been great to paint minis to

An exload from Baldermort, followed by an exload from the Oculus? Truly, we are blessed by the Emperor in these damned times. Ave Imperator, brother, your vigil is counted and remembered.

[@charliewright2048]

Yet more excellently delivered lore

[@Self-replicating_whatnot]

Don't mess with Legio Praesagius, they will throw a book at you. Titan-sized book.

[@darkhighwayman1757]

I always love your vids. No swearing and stays in character. Fantastic work

[@Darfeyn]

That was well done, once again! Among all aspects of the lore, I've got a preference for any Titan-related piece, and the way you present the logs is so enjoyable!

[@beardwierd2783]

Just listened to six episodes in a row whilst painting and then you bless us with a new episode, thank you!

[@OculusImperia]

Happy to provide! What are you painting?

[@beardwierd2783]

Oculus Imperia a Maulerfiend in the thousand sons colours for a bit of back up to my Rubric marines in my new chaos army, you also kept me entertained through the painting of my orc horde. I’m sure you hear this all the time but you have the best deliveries of lore that I have come across and it has only become more polished over the years. Maybe the thousand sons may get a mention at some point? Theirs is a truly tragic and tormented history.

[@raisenets99]

YES!! another titan legion! These are vids I watch when on the way to work, looking upon the city makes me think of holy terra and how fragile our world is. I really hope you make more on titan legios as these are the most fascinating!

[@1lostmuffin515]

I love these Index Titanicus videos. Always nice to get into the details of individual legios. I hope Solaria is on the list

I love the Inquisitorial warning at the end in the patreon names list. Occulus may be doing his work, but I'd bet a starship that very few people in the Imperium are actually see it.

Not just knights. Paladins.

[@tonytony7756]

Yes number two

[@UncleMikeDrop]

The fools. The poor honorable fools.

[@UncleMikeDrop]

@CreedOfHeresy Naivete' is a lack of experience, wisdom, or judgement. Their poor judgement was their downfall. They were too honorable thus they projected that honorability onto others allowing them to be easily deceived. They were led like lambs to the slaughter. Therefore, they were honorable fools.

[@UncleMikeDrop]

@CreedOfHeresy look up the definition. Naiveté dovetails with foolishness. Both lack wisdom either by poor judgement or little experience.

[@vb1564]

haha warlord go brr

It is a sad truth that the ones concerned about the welfare of their fellows are oft to pay the price of honour.

[@GreatGreenGoo]

Its difficult to imagine how different the Imperium was in 30k compared to 40k. It was progressive. Expansionist, secular. Ever rising upwards. In 40k its zealotry religious, dark and decaying. The Horus Heresy was almost as disastrous as Long Night.
