It is interesting to see specific exampes of how the Imperium finished what Old Night began. Dooming humanity.

[@alexthomson3001]

GW did brush on it with the time traveler (from the "Dark age") who turned up, was slaughtered, and his AI ship went absolutely Tonto, wrecking a whole battlefleet in vengeance for its dead pilot/friend/master!!

I like some of the passing mentions of human civilizations during the Great Crusade. I like how the Blood Angels really early on before Sanguinius was found came across an advanced planet where the humans used a form of living crystals as weapons and buildings.

[@madmarduk1936]

The Interex… just about the only faction that could’ve been legitimately called “good”. Chaos didn’t manipulate Horus with them as a target for no reason.

[@mikethoroughgood16]

The Interex always seemed fascinating to me advanced powerful and stanch enemies of chaos

[@aarond1622]

Not that advanced if you can get your butt handed to you by primarch led forces.

[@luketfer]

​@maltheri9833 apart from the fact Erebus started the whole thing by stealing a warp infused artefact and killed the guards or did you leave that part out to make the Interex look worse for "Muh Imperium!". The tragedy of the Interex is what broke Horus and started his downward slide towards chaos.

[@madmarduk1936]

@@aarond1622WARMASTER led forces. Horus was in command of the entire Astra Militarum and fleet.

[@malkomalkavian]

I got the impression that they thought that Horus might already be Chaos, which isn't far from correct

[@luketfer]

@@madmarduk1936 Not only that but he was in the midst of negotiations when Erebus fucked everything up. As far as Horus was concerned things were tense but going well, the Interex were making him question Daddies "All xenos bad!" mantra. Heck one of the reasons the Imperium is in such a pickle is because they genocided almost all of the non-hostile Xenos during the Great Crusade, effectively stripping themselves of allies.

[@brooklynkeith2877]

Other human stellar empires from the bygone ages of DoT and Old Night always fascinated me because we know so little, same with the Men of Iron and unification wars

Another thorough & enlightening project by 1Mind! The 40K community as a whole owes our genuine thanks, as you continue to regale us with tales from the more esoteric & less-lauded stories of the Grimdark. Keep em comin!

The punishment of killing one in ten soldiers in a unit is called "decimation" not "dissemination". This is a real punishment used by the Roman army in it's legions.

[@SoonGone]

Great video man. Liked and subbed. One request though, could you start including a list of your sources in the description along with the corresponding lore featured in the video? That way if people wanted to know more they'd know which books to read.

[@Dafuzzinator]

Desemination- the action or fact of spreading something, especially information, widely. Decimation- the killing of one in every ten of a group of people as a punishment for the whole group

[@BC-dn6oq]

You should probably give credit to the Warhammer wiki - you’ve used them almost line for line in this video.

[@thebigone6969]

Question: back in the Dark Age of Technology, were there Hive Cities and was life terrible for people living there as it is now in the Imperium? Or are Hive Cities unique to the Imperium?

[@alexkatc59]

Was. Shit was same.

[@jorahtheexplorer3262]

Basically DAOT was very Star Trek with a touch of Dune. So ... yes and no depending on where you were

[@RocketHarry865]

I imagine Dark Age of Technology Hive Cities were more like arcologies generally much cleaner and were capable of basic self sufficiency of the needs of it inhabitants of all social strata. Imperium Hive Cities are basically built on the ruins of these arcologies, all the infrastructure is broken and can only work to its barest minimum thanks to the jury rigging of the adeptus mechancius and the daily sacrifice of human laborers and only the nobility of the upper levels can expect any form of an existence where their basic life needs are met

[@TheAlgorath]

Hives existed, but DAoT were largely AI/computer driven, so the populations were a fraction, if not a sigma, of them today.

[@joshuayow4653]

The plot armor of a couple of thousand space marines killing millions of technologically superior soldiers with a couple of hundred rounds of ammunition and a sword is laughable in the worst way. Couldn't GW afford to hire better story tellers considering it literally costs thousands of dollars to play there game?

[@Willb0t]

Wh40k is satire. Some stuff is cool and interesting though.

[@Googleisstupid-sk3hm]

Facts. The one where they had better equipment and tech. It should have been over. Then the fact that no other human civilization made super warriors or soliders with powers is beyond bewilderment. Imperium can magically call on backup and said humans can't? It's just wank. No wonder imperium is losing..

[@mvee05]

can u please explain? i dont know how shadow war works too

[@alexthomson3001]

@@mvee05 a "Shadow war" was all the subterfuge and covert behind the scenes stuff that the Alpha Legion Excelled at. A planet months ahead of a compliance fleet that would try to fight? Infiltrate agents into their logistics, so you had folk ready to detonate stockpiled munitions... Infiltrate their communication centres, to spread false orders and misinformation... Infiltrate their labour unions to bring the planets workers out in revolt... All combined, the Alpha Legion could have any forces on the planet fighting each Other for "treachery" before they (or more commonly Other Legions) even came into the system, the planet crippled by rioting, it's armies tearing each other apart with what few munitions they had left and Utterly unable to unite against a compliance fleet. But They didn't limit themselves Just to forging ahead of the fleets to "soften up" targets. They (in their role as the Emperor's secret police, which is effectively the role they were created for) had eyes within Every other legion. It may be a lowly serf, transmitting numbers of ships, or a tech adept, passing information on armoured innovations and weak points, or an Astartes, removed and replaced by a sleeper agent, stealing Legion secrets and transmitting them, but having no memory of doing so... The shadow war was only really the purview of 2 legions. Alpha Legion, and Raven Guard. The Raven Guard were the rabble rousers, the ones that led the masses in revolt. The Alpha Legion were the ones that Started revolts to put all the rebellious elements in one place at one time, and let Others crush them, to ensure compliance was adhered to fully, before moving on to the next planet that needed softening up, or that had recently been brought under the imperial heel that had discontented elements. Guiliman never understood That. He wasn't engineered to. Alpharius was it's master. (Had the Heresy Not happened, most planets in the Imperium would have an Alpha Legion agent, embedding within or even Creating anti imperial uprisings... to make them simple to defeat, ensuring the peace by making sure the troublemakers got all they backing they could want Until they struck, but when they did, they were Utterly crushed)

I'm sure once the orks,demons, dark elder, nercons, tau, and nids start knocking at door humans of other civilization would listen. But at this rate, the imperium is worst than the others , death is death.

[@techelitesareadisease8816]

decimation has not meant to kill 1/10th in a very long time. That is just the etymology of it. It you said a force was decimated that should mean it suffered extreme losses in the modern day, with the exact amount being very contextual.
