OPERATION OF THE OFFICIO ASSASSINORUM! HOW THEY OPERATE SECRETLY WITHIN THE IMPERIUM

Hey everyone Rho here! Today we're discussing the operation of the Officio Assassinorum! The reality behind how they operate secretly within the Imperium...
Spoiler Warning to begin as the events we're discussing today are from the Warhammer 40,000 novel "Assassinorum Kingmaker" by author Robert Rath. As always I really recommend you read the stories for yourself first without spoilers! As that's the best way to enjoy the lore for yourself.

Wolf Lord, you're one of the major reasons why I have a 4800+ Wolf Spear now, I really appreciate your lore videos.

[@Kristian.B.Kristiansen]

The Imperiums finest precision instrument. The Guard is a Hammer. The Marines a scalpel. The Assassins are laser-surgery.

[@N0TYALC]

And the Custodes are sissy-hypno.

[@codycurtin2295]

God i hope we get a sequel to last Assassinorum novel. Robert Rath is insanley good and that was on of the best 40k novels period

[@timothylyons5686]

I remember a story that during the second world war messages were sent in Welsh because it was believed the Germans had no way of reading Celtic.

[@megaduck7965]

The English definitely can’t without help and we share an island with them , so that seems a pretty safe assumption haha

[@Irishman1861]

I loved this book and would like a sequel

[@azadzeeman1243]

The latest Cypher book actually was a lot about the Officio.

[@Matihood1]

1:30 Ah yes, the Eversor assassins operating within the shadows, completely unseen and unknown xD

[@Masamune84]

Now knowing this, I just want The Alpha Legion using this system in a story line

[@nathangillispie51]

Good video Rho, thank you!

[@Cmdtheartist]

There's an old movie from the 80s called Pascali's Island that, with a little imagination, feels like it could be taking place on a backwater world in the Imperium. All lies and theft and espionage and treachery, without an Astartes in sight.

[@jsmiami]

Given the more recent siege of Terra novels, would be nice to revisit a ranking of best primary 1v1 fights

[@Joe-rb8ju]

Just when I needed it.

[@viewernewest]

Operates in secrecy, yeah the celestial lions, black templars, and emperor's spears chapters would disagree with that after what happened between them and the assasinorum.

[@davidmiddleton7958]

The Officio Assassinorum, something the High Lords to be very wary. As was amply demonstrated when Guilliman launched the Indomitus crusade! Beware the darkness, High Lord! One particular story was an Assassinorum team went after a Rogue Psycher of the Crimson Slaughter. One of assassin temple, something only the gravest threat would require.

[@MaDmanex100]

Interesting. We dont hear much of the assasinorum much. There is alot of intrigue to be had to be sure. One of the best way to hide messages is to blend in with others. Become average.

[@tjorgensen8760]

I think of wrath of iron and the assassin working its way into the enemy’s stronghold

[@headlibrarian1996]

It would not surprise me if the Inquisition has similar capabilities.

You can count me in for this Crusade brother!! (Also Magic the Gathering? When did that happen?!)

[@64ig6kg0]

Talk about the female custodes.

[@nickkymanick7011]

I’m no expert but I have been reading the lore for the last 20 years and have over 150+ books so them just telling me it’s always been this way is such a slap to the face of all fans……

[@mrsirwesterwester]

Yeah it's not like GW retcon the lore all the time right...😂

[@fightforaglobalfirstamendm5617]

Boycott GW until they stop sacrificing the lore and hobby on the altar of wokism! Fight for and to defend otherwise it will end up like; Star wars, star trek, Lord of the Rings, Indiana Jones, Marvel comics, DC, MCU, DCU, Dr Who, Magic the Gathering, Wheel of Time, DnD, Comic Con, Fallout, last of us, warcraft, Halo, the Witcher, Game of Thrones, Disney and so many more!

[@Kristian.B.Kristiansen]

Go away Woke-bro! You are insufferable.

[@ImperatorSomnium]

Incel alert

[@The0Stroy]

Yeah. Go live among Amish if it bothers you so much.

[@peteturabo9278]

Yeah, I guess Wolf don’t want to address the snu snu Custodes. Sad really. 🤷‍♂️

[@user-gh4lv2ub2j]

Part of the boycott is unsubscribing from lore channels. You are what is known as collateral damage; be well!

[@nathangillispie51]

So hurt Rho. Who didn't make any decision. Right.

[@The0Stroy]

No one will miss you. Bye!

[@darklelouchg8505]

@@nathangillispie51 Sometimes people get caught in the crossfire. I am less of an absolutist regarding Rho and other lore channels, but if you are indeed going pure boycot, then yes, it makes sense to boycott it all.

[@P_for_plutonic]

This is a good point. Should the boycott be this far reaching though? Hmm...
