STC-related or otherwise. # Astartes home worlds/Space marine chapters: I would love to see a series based on this idea. The history of these planets: Climate, natural ressources, primarchs, wars, culture, industry, the arrival of the Emperor and the crusade, and of course the invidual Astartes chapters’ connection to and way of life on these planets. Monastaries, fortresses, the innitiation processes and rituals of each chapter, and so on.

About second part....uhm now. Especially considering numbers involved, Pacific and Eastern Fronts of WW II comes close, mostly due to GW being inept with numbers.

@@piotrd.4850 yeah that's true. But oh well.

By the Emperor, Luetin, you put the best Soundtracks for these Lore Videos.

I am a simple man, I see a video detailing the events that will lead to the inevitable defeat of the Imperium and the sad pitiful death of their so-called "God Emperor" while his people weep in despair and the realization they will die slowly and painfully...I give a like.

Down to my last couple gbs on my data for the weekend. *watches luetin*. Worth it.

"it will take many hours to compile such a list" WELL, we are waiting! :)

[@Jay_Money69]

Well that was depressing. Lol. The Horus heresy is one of the most tragic stories I've ever heard, but the additional details you provided here about the Imperial Fists just crushed me.

Keep chuckling xeno filth, your finger bones and pointy ears will make great souvenirs.

Great video man. love this style. you do a fantastic job bringing 40k to life with nothing but voice.

OOH, it's time for my favorite drinking game! Every time Luetin09 says "slaughter", take a shot!

[@Eldor-117]

The traitor legions each had their reasons for their betrayal, but i thought one of the main reason was b/c the traitors thought there wasnt a place for them when the crusade was finished, they feared a time where they would not be needed...right?

[@calebholdridge7576]

Thanks for your hard work on these man. Really, great. solid. vids.

Almost fifty minutes of torment and heresy

The civilians attacking the Orks reminds me of LotRs where Gimli says Certainty of death. Small chance of success. What are we waiting for?
