Dude good for you for fighting against your family members our family seems very similar in many regards unfortunately. My Father was a piece of crap who would beat me and my fraternal twin. Then when he got remarried he would allow his now wife to beat me and my brother. Life can suck a lot even at my mothers life sucked but she was better than my father unfortunately the US court system doesn’t agree because they took us away from our mother so we had zero contact with our mother for over a year until the court order was changed after a year of us fighting against the court order. Oh did I mention we were in the 6th grade when the court order happened and we didn’t see our mother until the middle of the 7th grade. Fuck the New Mexico court system. Iron within iron without

That bitterness may not be the healthiest thing, but when you're in a situation as difficult as you're in, then you don't have the luxury of picking and choosing which coping mechanisms you have. That's something I don't think a lot of people understand, especially if they don't have experience with adversity of this kind. Whatever mechanisms allow you to persist are worthy ones, as long as they don't bring unjust harm to others. When you finally do outlast your adversities, triumph, and live the life you want to live, I hope I can be there to congratulate you as one among many voices in the comment section. Every bit of that triumph will be well earned.

I feel it brother. Parents were extremely strict, and extremely religious. It definitely pushed me away from the general crowd, and my parents were fine with that.

Thank God my parents were good folks- early on in life my relationship was like chronos- but I got out of it and learned how people work. If I had stayed in that situation I'd be very different as a person and would not be as successful as I am.

[@TANEM315]

You are so much stronger now after surviving that hell, and it is all due to your own tenacity and self-reflection. This is in no way to justify the abuse you endured. I relate much to your experience, and I get the sense you will thrive as an adult due to your own strengths, sharpened by the unique challenges you faced. I was disowned and became homeless as a young adult at a time where I least expected it and was most vulnerable. 12 years later, I am a senior software engineer with all the things and relationship I hoped for. I went back to school and then started a new career literally with just my own two hands and zero help from anybody. Carving out one's own fate in spite of all the challenges, while owing literally nothing to anyone, is probably the most satisfying feeling a person can have. Eschewing all sense of entitlement and believing in oneself are the two things that empowered me the most.

[@kostas225cmp]

I had a shockingly similar upbringing, and that's _also_ partly why I became enamored with the Iron Warriors. My family is made up of Greek immigrants who were extremely insular, and while they weren't quite as strict as your parents, they still did everything they could to make myself, my siblings, and my cousins that way. It was very hard for me to make friends as a kid because I was _taught_ to be different from everyone else, that it was almost virtuous to shun anyone outside of the family. My uncle, who was the oldest of my dad's siblings, was also the most successful, and I and the other kids were basically made to be at his beck and call, and refusing to do whatever work he demanded from us was seen as this big travesty worthy of shaming and punishment: don't question, don't disobey; don't complain; just do as you're told. He also beat his kids and wife regularly, and none of the other adults ever did anything about it. I remember he hit his daughter one Halloween because she wanted to go hang out with her friends. That's all; she just asked her parents to spend Halloween with people outside of the family, and she was punished for it. So all through childhood I was socially awkward, very judgemental, had a massive chip on my shoulder, and it wouldn't be until college that I realized how fucked up it all was, but the damage was done. My parents put this huge emphasis for working for work's sake, essentially, and I would be shamed, scolded, yelled at, just for taking a day off work to write an essay. So I couldn't study or do my homework, so my grades tanked, and I eventually had to drop out of college. And... yeah. The Iron Warriors were a natural pick for me, and it helped that they had a lot of ancient Greek themes that I could relate to.

[@Dunmerdog]

Dude… that’s so rough man, I’m terribly sorry. I relate in some ways, specifically the being punished for doing nothing wrong, and it’s left me as a grown man who still apologises for everything constantly. Sometimes I really wish I could just go full Iron Within, yk

[@knightesquire36]

May God help you and make it all better for you.

[@blackaua]

For me, I've always felt a close connection with the Iron Warriors. Or more accurately, their Primarch Perturabo. Not for the same reasons as yourself, and people could also say it's not for the healthiest of reasons. Still, it's amazing how we can find ourselves inspired and our souls mirrored perfectly by these fictional characters. You did a fantastic job illustrating just that my friend. Best to you.

[@robacdc1977]

They actually hate each other

[@izzymosley1970]

The iron warriors actually kind of remind me of the death corps of kreig both of them take the hard wars and both of them are known for being really resilient the major difference between them to me is that the death corps of kreig have that resilience because of their faith in the emperor and their own personal guilt whereas the iron warriors are resilient especially because they have to be to survive and a mostly fight out of bitterness. I'm sure there are more parallels you can make between certain guardsman regiments and space Marine chapters.

@@livefromtheblacklibrary Also, I can definitely sympathize with what you had to go through with your family. I didn't have it as bad per se. But my sister was an abusive narcissist who had a cruel streak a mile wide and she was a bit of an emotional bomb - people like her just can't understand why what they do is wrong, it's beyond them. My brother was better but he still a bit of a narcissist and was inclined to hurt me at times and be mean to me (but I get along with him much better now). And my mom preferred that I stayed home and be safe so she wouldn't have to worry about me (and she worried easily) - and I was inclined to obey that setniment. And now I'm in my early 30s, my life is coming together sure, but I'm definitely emotionally underdeveloped for somoene my age and I have problems bringing myself to get invovled in conversations happening in front of me. Definitley more comfortable around people who are not my immediate family in the latter regard, but I'm still awkward at parties.

When you say this video becomes emotionally heavy at the end, you weren't kidding, and you know what, it's great. I truly appreciate you sharing this with all of us. This makes me waiting, for new vids, and being excited for what new stuff you're gonna cook have a new weight to it. The weight of rooting for fellow survivors of dysfunctional and toxic asian family. I know you're still in process of plotting your way out, and I root for you so much, I hope you gets to leave sooner than later, and I hope in the mean time you can put more distance between you and your parents be it physically, mentally, emotionally, energetically, what have you. I myself only just left my abusive mother at age 34, after a whole lifetime of emotional and mental abuse and neglect, I lost the battle, but I win the war, because I stood up to her, and I left. My real life have only started since this year. Where I truly feel safe at my own home and have the freedom to do what I want, and every single second of my fighting, to get here, is worth it. I'm rooting and cheering for you so much from the other side here and I'm telling you it's going to be great, and your life will be great, and things will work out for you, because with your tenacity and survivor mentality, you will go the places you want, and no abusive parents or trauma is big enough to stop you. Setbacks maybe, but I promise you, you will get you revenge and it be glorious, for there is no better revenge than living well after you finally gets to leave your tormentor. You got this man.

The way you described your father is 1:1 how things looked like with my step-father.

I won't go into detail about how he was to me, just know that it was near exactly as how you described it. I was lucky enough that he left us after very much arguing, and honesty things are better now. His life is so insignificant that it feels like he wasn't ever living under the same roof as us. And let me tell you, once you have your independence in life, he will be the sorry asshole after you don't even talk to him anymore. You will make the best of your life while he is forgotten, left with his own thoughts and regrets, wasting alone without even being given cared for by his "family".

You and I had almost the same exact childhood. I rebelled and failed out of school a lot. I refused to live up to my "potential," so I was forced to go through special schooling. Now, it wasn't my dad. It was my mom, but she pretty much emotionally terrorized us. I was supposed to go to the best school.. I could have been a comic book illustrator, but it got so bad, I gave up on everything and became a street kid. I was homeless at 16. I wound up joining the Marines, and that changed things.

Here’s hoping you hit that 20K man, you deserve it. On a side note, I firmly believe Perturabo isn’t a demon prince, but actually our first ever Dreadnaught Primarch. I know he used gene seed to call upon a gods aid, but I think the one who answered could be Vashtorr and Vashtorr decided to assist in crafting a suit of Dreadnaught armor that would fit and sustain him. I think it would fit him much more than turning him in to a demon prince.

If you want to read tarot but are concerned about having a physical deck, you can use a pack of regular playing cards as an analog for most of the Minor Aracana. Spades for swords, hearts for cups, clubs for wands, and diamonds for pentacles. The only thing you'll be missing are the 4 Page cards for each suite and the Major Arcana but it's a good starting point. I always recommend the Rider-Waite as a first tarot deck because it's kind of the standard that the rest of them are based on. I love teaching people about tarot, it's one of my special interests, but there's only so much I can do through a single comment. God speed with all you want to accomplish in life. Regardless of whether any of your subscribers could be considered friends, remember that you have at least 10,000 people supporting you and basically saying what you're doing is worthwhile. Keep up the great work and I pray for your expeditious growth.

My wife grew up the complete opposite. Her parents were more like buddies than parents. They smoked pot and drank with her brother and sister. They had… deviant… sexual parties at the house with other couples, and I’m not convinced her siblings weren’t abused in some way by the people that came to these “parties”. They didn’t push them to do anything, didn’t punish them at all. They were allowed to disappear whenever, one time her sister didn’t come back for nearly 3 weeks when she was 15, they didn’t even look for her. Her brother is in prison after he drugged and raped a 17 year old girl, and her sister is a heroin addict with three kids to three different men that sustains herself through prostitution and drug dealing. My wife only escaped by begging her grandparents to take her in when she was 12 years old, which her absent parents didn’t care. My wife hasn’t spoken to her parents in 11 years, they never even met our children. They simply don’t care about anything but partying, drinking, and gambling. My wife still has trauma from it, particularly fearing being abandoned. Moderation in all things, including parenting, folks.

Not the Death guard while they are similarly tough compared to the iron warriors the iron warriors have an unflinching resolve. They will get the job done at ANY cost. And certainly not the Emperor's Children as they have no discipline whereas the Iron Warriors have the most Discipline of all traitor legions. They stay focused and get the job done. Finally they are the most straightforward legion. No esoteric bullshit, just straightforward and very smart tactically and are logical but not logical to a Maddening Degree! All in all the Iron Warriors have the best of all Four domains of chaos, all the best boons, traits and aspects of chaos and have the self confidence and control to wield it effectively and without insanity! They are only outclassed by the Black Legion and the Astral Claws in terms of legion Size, but while having less numbers their efficiency and effectiveness outweigh any numerical advantage the two other legions might have. Also helps them fight to the bitter End and won't give up easily the most out of ANY legion, be it loyalist or traitor! So my opening and closing argument is that the Iron Warriors are the Best traitor legion. Oh and of course the catch phrase I use all the time during real life and one of the best Traitor legion quotes: IRON WITHIN. IRON WITHOUT.

I think the Iron Warriors misunderstood Perty's Decimation. I think he wanted them to RESIST it and stand for themselves, but instead of that, they willingly murdered eachother. Not kill, murder. Because they became so weak that they would rather betray their brothers than stand up for themselves. "When you are at the pearly gates of Heaven, God will not allow the excuse of 'Virtue was not convenient at that moment.' Every man is a pawn, or a king, but once he makes the first move on his own, has he become strong and decided to play the game of life."

Thank you for sharing your personal experiences. I can relate to you a lot. I've suffered depression for 18 years which left me emotionally and socially stunted. I missed out on the socialization and life experiences that contribute to the maturity of a human being. I had to repeat a class in school and my uni education took me 9 years. Now, having beat depression and finally getting off the meds after 10 years I still harbour a lot of bitterness and resentment. That is a lot of negative energy, but it is energy nonetheless, that can be channelled into something productive. Like an Iron Warrior, I've appropriated the stoicism and the "I'll show 'em" mentality. It is what made me beat depression and it is what drives me forward. I wish you growth and success to your life and to your channel. You're putting a lot of effort and dedication into this and hopefully you'll get the recognition you deserve.

[@saifakib8346]

Hey I resonate with everything you said here. I am from Bangladesh and I was in a similar situation. I see myself a lot in the Iron warriors too and I was eventually able to flee my family and go to Ottawa, Canada and cut them off.

[@Casanovadracula]

I feel a similar empathy with Angron and World Eaters. Having too live with constant pain and the anger and frustration that comes with it.

[@nocomment3294]

Thanks for sharing. Child abuse is nothing easy to overcome, and I have seen how people forget that there can be an escape and just try to survive the circumstances somehow.

[@Prophetofthe8thLegion]

"It shouldn't take the black legion ten thousand years to make progress." You could say the same thing for the Iron Warriors.

[@claudematthieubayemi4276]

I really felt your story man, since coming from an african household i had some of tour problems for a while, things have been solved with my family now, so i hope one day things get better with yours too

[@LouisAzevedo]

I can relate on several levels. You made me cry. Find your way to happiness. Do not let ANYBODY stop you. And be proud of yourself, you already accomplished a lot!

[@passchen-fail3704]

Jesus, dude, I just came for the Iron Warriors

Kronos: literally to angry to leave this world. You are a beast, keep it up!

[@EVER_PRINCE]

Actually here’s a fun fact about the Thousand Sons, they’re Legion has recently grown in numbers. This does depend on if you view books as more canon than codexes tho. The Thousand Sons 9th edition codex states they’ve expanded to legion size again. But the majority of the base troops are Rubrics. The numbers are roughly 80% to 90% are Rubrics. Which I’d argue is a boon since the Rubrics are unquestionably loyal and beyond hard to kill. Not to mention the Tsons can and have performed rituals that allow them to revive dead Tsons sorcerers and revive them as new Rubrics, who keep their memories, abilities and free will. Meaning they’re numbers are only ever expanding. In the codex anyway. In the books they’re still said to be beyond fractured. But still a major threat given a decent number are part of the Black Legion in general, plus all of the individual Thrallbands.

[@sa_7467]

You're words resonate with me and hearing how you have directed your anger as a positive force is amazing keep fighting and keep the anger

[@2by22]

I can relate to a lot of that and and you give me inspiration to do better and to get on my feet after every fall. It must sound stupid to read but i am inspired by your words to go on and live my life as I want to not by someone elses design. Love your content mate.

[@GTGeeTwo]

Although a little bit late, I have to say I am amazed! Never have I expected to hear such an empowering story in an Iron Warriors essay video, but that was an amazing experience! Iron within, iron without.

[@0922hallwm]

I've played Iron Warriors for a very long time, love them, I wish we could still field basilisks.

[@aronboy9822]

. . .man. I say this with a hand over my heart. **I relate to you.** I feel your pain. That feeling of being held back from doing anything fun, being told you will be the best and put on High standards. Along with a father that would absolutely Insult and belittle you. Going on rants on how you will be nothing in life and tell you how garbage you are (even though it's not true but just to make sure you know your place.) Yeah. I understand that. I feel you. Iron Whitin Brother! *Iron Without!*

[@donkface8509]

As recompence for this heresy, you have to make an Imperial Fists Video as well as how to make Imperial Fists more interesting. Also you are a real iron warrior if you been beaten down for so long yet still stood straight even after everything, good for you man (Even though I have to kindly disagree with your own life philosophy of life through endless spite,but you do you). Hope you gain more happiness down the road! Dont forget about the lemon bois!

[@stardestroyer19]

Based as hell! A fellow Iron Warriors enjoyer ❤

[@stardestroyer19]

To follow up, I posted this as I started to watch the video. I just want to say, that while I'm not Asian, I didn't have the best child hood growing up either and I like the Iron Warriors for similar reasons as you do. I really get it man.

[@Miron_Marnic]

Massive props to you for not stopping despite your parents holding you back and enduring all of the shit you mentioned. As an IF enjoyer I had never imagined that these words would ever leave my lips, but Iron Within, Iron Without!

[@petra4385]

Plan A for a Tyranid bio ship deploying titans is to throw a virus bomb at it Plan B is to give a shitton of resources to a magos and tell it to make the biggest gun possible while hiding him via making an inquisitor tell him that he'll protect it and give it the resources Also good luck with the irl stuff

[@Odinfang]

I didn’t know the Iron warriors got a tyranid bioship. Imagine them modifying their technovirus to affect orks. If he’d had his own spores corrupted with his virus, he’d have his own green tide, twisted into weapon fused abominations. They’d be hes shock troops meant to corrupt the planet and alien weaponry, quite possibly go waaaaagh with the mods and be way better equipped for doing what they love, and that’s truly scary.

[@Lancersilva]

Bro, I think you just became my favorite 40k lore channel out of relatability. Your story for liking the Iron Warriors so much shares some notes with my life story too. Albeit less extreme, I have a decent relationship with my family but they got a similar result as your family did. Less embarrassment more discouragement. Growing up everyone told me I was annoying and to just shut up, so I did, and now they complain about me being quiet, having barely enough friends to count on one hand, and being an overall shut in since getting close to people is next to impossible for me now. But that can only go for so long so now I’m studying for a field that will demand I at least move a few cities over from my family and I can’t wait to have some freedom and try to be an interesting person (riding motorcycles, working on and modifying my own vehicles, learning Portuguese to finally speak my family’s language, competing in shooting competitions (with an MCX Rattler with an iron warrior paint job), and make short films with the very few friends I have, etc.)

[@asexypotato2280]

You've become one of my favorite creators. Every video I've seen from you has been well put together, and you come off as very humble. I find your passion pretty admirable as well. It's comforting to hear someone else trudging on, out of spite for the people that've beat them down. Definitely makes the world feel smaller in good way :)

[@jawanzaharrell7276]

This is my first video that I seen from your channel and I had to say this one cut deep, not only because I share your love of the iron Warriors, but because I share a similar life experiences in my formative years of being born with what other people called gifts, but to me only ever meant greater expectations and responsibilities without any of the recognition or praise that should come with it. I guess that’s why I also kind of see a little bit of myself in the iron Warriors. I really appreciate you for sharing this. May your vengeance be felt like a hammer. Iron within, iron without.

[@mrman9977]

The emperor's children would like to challenge that first point. They were literally known for being so few that they were regularly put it command over as well as fought as elite troops together with normal army forces.

[@Malino8835]

Holy S**t! Peruvian tortilla's mineral fighters are far more relatable that I thought they where!

[@Ironbattlemace]

This is one of the best video about IW I've seen. Best quote to take from this is "What is the protocol? Skim your codex, what will you do when" *A FUCKING TYRANID HIVE SHIP COMES AND SHITS TITANS AND JUST LOOK AT YOU* " I just love IW capability to do things that no other legion could even imagine. This is why I am a big fan.

[@zacharygrieco8768]

As someone who lost years as well, I can tell you that it really never is too late to feel alive. You will get out, you will be free, and when you do, never look back, never return. Move forward with your life, heal, get therapy, do the fun things, enjoy it all. Take back your life. It took me till 33 before I left my home town, and only a few mo ths ago before I left the state I grew up in that I comoletely despise. I live in a different part of the US now and I am happier. It is not perfect, but I'm actively trying to branch out now and make friends and get together the tools for Warhammer models and find DnD and VtM groups and live my life the way I always wanted. I know you can and will do this too. Thank you for sharing, and for getting me to respect the Iron Warriors that much more.

[@aarongonzales2829]

This guy really deserves success

[@DanielCarvalho-te6hh]

it's kinda funny how beaten down people tend to love the iron warriors, myself included. I'm so happy to see people with similar struggles enduring and thriving.

[@kotarldo]

My dude, I stumbled into your channel and watched a few videos, I was not convinced, there are waaay too many "creators" just jumping on the 40k lore because it's trendy or whatever, the thing is you are not to my high standard and yet and kept watching, you sound fresh, genuine, passionate. Now I get it, you are young... Your tirade about your childhood and your parents made me hit the sub, like I do hope you achieve all that you said, I do wish you luck and everything in it. I had a weird life growing up, for different reasons I didn't have anything close to a regular life since I was 16, I can relate to you, or maybe you could relate to me since I am way older than you. When my old friends were doing crazy things I was in places or meeting people that tbh no one should meet. My parents are awful people both of them used me in different moments of my life when I was asking for help... I don't know how I am still here, but I am, my fiancée sometimes jokes about "who did you even survived for so long not knowing how to do X?" So good luck, and if you ever want to rant about shitty parents I would listen.

[@Lokstar47]

Hi Chrono. Your story is very relatable to me. I'm 32 years old Romani gypsy, probably autistic, not very fortunate thing in modern Poland. I was raised with abusive father, who would beat the shit out of me for "bad behaviour in preschool" etc. I tried to game end myself twice, not very successful as you can see. I clawed out of that home, I found girlfriend, now wife, on an internet chatroom. I tought that the shit ended, but it's not that simple. I fall into opiate addiction, to cope with my broken psychic. I'm clawing out of addiction as I am writing this comment. I broke any contact with my parents, after my younger sister died of leukemia last year. I found a great friend, we made a podcast togheter, on my scraped from junk, old PC. What I want to say, the grind never stops, but it's getting slightly better. Warhammer was my ever unfulfiled dream hobby. I thought I could never afford it and even if I do I wouldn't have the skill to properly paint the models. Now my friend is sending me 3d printed models almost every week. It's not great, we are quite poor etc, but I have a peaceful life. I wish you the same. Iron within brother.

Perty is by far the best traitor primarch and depending on the day, my favourite primarch full stop. I love that he is as efficient and brutal as he is petulant and spiteful. And fair play to you mate. Glad you're doing what makes you happy at last. Iron within, iron without.

[@andrewmichael9201]

Man listening to your life story Krono I not only sympathize, I empathize. I know what you’ve been through because on some level I’ve been there and am still there. I’m sorry you have to deal with this and I’m energized by your sheer determination to make things better for you. You have strength. Strength to rise above your current station and cackle at your triumph as you leave your abusive family behind. You have true strength my friend. Iron within, iron without Krono. You may be a harlequin, but you’re a true iron warrior. God sorry for the cheese, but you get the message. Godspeed my friend. Godspeed
