However, as a former member of the retinue of Rogue Trader Vincent Macmanus it's difficult to tell if his opinions are his own or simply a strategic act of disinfornation to appease the xenos ego and further trade in-roads for other traders (and himself by extension). Dont get me wrong, relying on such misersble star-slime for trade and production so heavily is a recepe for misforune. They are quite literally INHUMAN, they dont share our values for human life, our moral ethics, and its a WELL established fact the Tau specifically ONLY trade as a means of creating their OWN subversive inroads to whatever planet theyre trading WITH. Theres a reason so many treasonous lords are also caught taking part in inhuman deviancies most profane. I digress though. My point is, Cenatica hasnt been a true soldier in a very long time, and it's rumored he's after a Trade Warrant of his own?

22:30 Commissar-“I’m taking this child to the Schola Progenium” Parents- “Wait isn’t that school exclusively for orphans?” Commissar- “Yes” *grabs bolter*

[@PharosofLight]

"They just take kids with potential" is also how the Jedi did things, funny enough. There's a line from a book that's like the guidelines for the Jedi and it says "The presence of the force in the child is the child's consent to be taken". Anyways, great episode but I'm really getting burnt out on Imperium stuff after a 5-episode-long series on the fall of cadia. How about some more Xenos stuff for a while? Genestealer Cults, Harlequins, Craftworlds (I'm pretty sure you haven't actually done craftworlds and their whole thing, right?), Ynnari (which really should come after Craftworlds and harlequins).

[@lazyc0mmander277]

I mean Jedi weren't known to murder the parents who objected though. Seems more like a sith thing.

[@gryphonbotha1880]

How odd. I remember it being the case that Jedi wouldn't take a child unless the parents agreed. Now Sith, on the other hand...

The fact that imperial navy officers are one part children of naval officers, direct commission nobles, and schola kids with a tiny sprinkling of upjumped rankers has to make the sub lieutenant / ensign berths on naval ships interesting. You got the guy whose dad is in charge of the north aft port marcro canons, the seventh son of spire baron, the traumatized brainwashed guy and the guy in his early 30s who got a field commission for yelling the correct things at his shipmates during a fire.

It's not Halo, bud. The 8 year olds of 40k aren't gonna be ready for the horrors of the galaxy by being taught Greek history.

@@LtSprinkulz Given the obscene amount chaos must be fed by some of this. I think Greek history would do them good. For that matter, a thorough education about their enemies would probably both reduce casualties, and increase enemy losses.

They’ve got your back” is so much better with the context

[@dragonturtle2703]

Wait, if they produce officers for the navy, wouldn’t they also for the army? Also, not everyone is sacrificed to the emperor or becomes an inquisitor. Generally only those too weak, insane, lacking in control over their abilities, or other things that make them useless liabilities are sacrificed. They can also become astropaths, battle psykers for the guard, and recruits for space marines librarians and grey knights. You guys should probably do one on psykers and psyker training at some point.

[@cjstanky]

Probably but i imagine that being a naval officer if 40k is probably more involved and needing someone whose been through a higher degree of specialization vs the army where a Scola kid headed that way is probably just going to be trained as a Commisar

The Ciaphas Cain books offer a decent look at the schola progenium. In almost ever book there usually an inner monologue where he mentions part of his time in one particularly when his regiment meets up with the Talarins and an old commissar "friend" of his brings up memories. And one of the last books he is a teacher in a smaller schola specifically for commissarial cadets. So we get a decent look at them though through the kinder if more scared eyes of Cain.

Good video. I enjoy your guys take on the Warhammer 40k universe. What I like about this video is that not many people have covered this school in depth. It's ironically where most of the named non space marine characters in 40k come from. Ciaphas Caine novels often reference the schola progenium.
