Thank You Warhammer 40,000 Tacticus for sponsoring this video! You can download the game for free today by clicking this link! bit.ly/tacticus_weshammer

when are you going to do a deep dive on the Craftworld Aeldari, and Exodites

[@Toadaboticus]

Going to check it out based on your review. Last 2 games I played were Necromunda and the old Chaos Gate games.

[@rognavaldrtheskald6652]

I downloaded this game I've only played a short bit but i feel comfortable saying this is the best 40k game release on mobile i find the mechanics simple enough as to not be overwhelming but with enough complexity to keep it fun i probably wouldn't have Know about it had it not been for the sponsor y'all need to play this fr also i love. This channel i play the Horus heresy TCG but i had no idea about all the lore this is in my top 5 KZbin channels i hope we get a kah-tah-n(i can't spell) so there's the pronunciation anyway this is a great channel and ik it's hard work to write and produce these videos but there enjoyed and appreciated by many so good work

“F*ck off, I’m working.”

[@EVER_PRINCE]

My favourite part about the Sisters is that they hate Space Marines and see them as mutants. Contrast against the way almost everyone else sees the Astartes. And I love that. Especially since they actually love humanity and the Imperial Guard extremely, especially because their argument makes a lot a sense “is the Space Marines are so amazing and so beyond human, how come they fall to chaos just as easily as your regular human. Yes guardsmen do fall, but they are just ordinary men and women.” And that’s honestly a pretty fucking accurate argument.

[@FormerGovernmentHuman]

Saw a meme of this recently. Soy space marine: OUR FATHER NEVER TELLS US ANYTHING AND HE DOESN’T HUG US LETS GIVE OURSELVES TO THE RUINOUS POWERS BECAUSE HE IS AN ASSHOLE! Chad Commissar: The planet is literally falling apart guardsmen, you will stand, fight and die for the emperor. Chadsmen: Yes.

[@whyjnot420]

To be fair, most people basically know nothing about the space marines other than what they have been told, even to the point where most have literally never seen one. The same cannot be said of the Sororitas in terms of how much actual exposure they have to the space marines. Also to be fair, it isn't much different than how the Emperor thought of them.

[@wiseguy01]

That doesn't make a whole lot of sense when you realize that the Astartes are basically vastly inferior clones of the Emperor. Seing as all of them are implanted with a gene seed that originates from the Primarchs whom are the sons/clones of the Emperor.... the same Emperor whom the Sisters worship as a God against his own wishes. Every single Astartes is genetically related to the Emperor of Mankind.

[@CidVeldoril]

Not all though. They get along with Grey Knights famously. Barring that one retconned moment in time in which GW was being stupid.

[@riven5677]

Yeah same I especially love that the nuns with guns see astartes as little more than sanctioned mutants even though they are the closest thing related to the emperor being his grandchildren until rouboute woke up and spends most of his will power not screaming and tearing down churches

[@portcomet18]

I have never played warhammer but I am in love with the lore and depth of the different factions. Honestly Wes, you got me to this point

[@boredniko2406]

That's kinda the beauty of 40k. You don't have to even be remotely interested in some aspects such as the table top games, or the miniatures, or the video games, or the books but the setting is so rich and full of depth and larger than life characters, interesting settings and deep lore, that there's bound to be something that appeals to almost everyone.

[@00yiggdrasill00]

@@boredniko2406 yeah I've never played tabletop (FAR to expensive and no one to play with in my area) but there's just so much to the lore and other media that I honestly feel I can call myself part of it all and enjoy it just as readily as a TT player.

[@gunblade7610]

I love the sisters of battle especially the idea of them singing hymns in battle. My friend who joined a religious order had her sisters join her attending her father's funeral. When they processed his coffin out of the church the sisters sang a hymn in Latin. It was hauntingly beautiful and that song always comes to my mind when I imagine the Adeptus Soroietas fighting on the field of battle. Another KZbinr Baldemort does a video on the battle sisters and his opening short story also reflects the beauty of the battle hymns of the battle sisters and faith.

[@bluknight99]

DUDE!! You're timing is PERFECT! I just decided to try my hand with Warhammer 40K and chose the Adepta Sororitas as my first army. Just last night, I ordered a set of them along w/ their codex. Can't wait to watch this deep dive!

I just finished reading Mark of Faith because of this video. I thought for sure you were spoiling the whole book based on how climactic the battle sounded, but as you pointed out, all that was just the prologue before chapter one! So really, you were just making one heck of a sales pitch, and I can't thank you enough for it! I've been wanting to get into 40k lore for a while now, but with decades worth of writing, it can be overwhelming. However, new videos such as this one have popped up since the last time I tried to get into it, so I'm finally making the journey! The Sisters of Battle are my favorites, and this video was exactly what I wish I had a few short years ago. Keep up the good work, you're doing the Emperor's will!

They have quickly become my favourite faction in W40K by far. their lore is just fantastic, and the fact they are just normal humans who fight to the death with as much (and many times more) furore as the space marines as insane. Their many stories of standing steadfastly against overwhelming odds to the very last sister makes them in my opinion far cooler than Space Marines

[@firmak2]

the emperor botherers are nicely popular.

[@monroerobbins7551]

That and the fact that they’re able to resist chaos and demons just with SHEER FAITH ALONE. It’s just so impressive to me! We’ve seen so many Marines fall to chaos, being warped and persuaded… it’s just so interesting to me. It makes me kinda wish there were more Adeptas in other roles, because if they’re that powerful, imagine how effective they’d be as leaders, not having to fear the influence of the demons they’re fighting. Then again, they don’t like the Space Marines, lol

I was hesitant to get into 40k for the longest time, mainly because there wasn't really a faction that I could ever see myself fitting into or liking that much. Starting from here though, I can safely say that 40k's becoming one of my favorite sci-fi settings to date. The Adepta Sororitas are so unbelievably cool for a setting that's largely populated with men, and I love the nerdy girl appreciation!

[@bowwing333]

Sisters were my first choice when I first started decades ago but was so made fun of by other players that I reluctantly shelved the idea. The Tau came out very shortly later and I loved their (original) perspective and design, it felt a little Asian but also felt really familiar as a Native American. Turns out my choice would get me hated on anyways. RIP 🤷 I'm soooooo soooo happy the Sisters are finally getting the love and attention they deserve. Love their strong faith and French influences, it's just fascinating. Enjoy!

[@glrasshopper]

An interesting deep dive, especially for someone whom has just started W40K, with a Sororitas army. This dive makes me wonder about why the Emperor ended up using the Sororitas, when he originally didn't want to be worshiped. Perhaps, he is using them to counter the fact that the faith was established by someone who became tainted by chaos. Countering fallacy with faith. I was drawn to the faction due to the fact they were anti-psyker, and because they have a truly kick-arse pipe organ!

[@halfknight2310]

The soritas only existed after the emperor was entombed on the golden throne. The emperor never directly used them. But he has blessed some into becoming saints in order to combat chaos. But it is unknown if he did it willingly, or it happened due to the amount of warp power he was radiating made his own version of demons. Also, the fact they worship the emperor as a god is a great counter to chaos. As they can’t be corrupted. The emperor assumed it was lack of worship but in reality, it was the worship of another being that weakened chaos.

Wes this video was over an hour long and I blinked and it was over. I looked at my clock thinking oh cool I'll make dinner in a little bit, I'll pause the video so I have something to watch while I eat and next thing I know an hour just poofs away. Fantastic video my dude. While I knew a lot of what was said, I was so enamored by it and getting to hear someone else talk about it just made me smile the entire time. I love the Sisters of Battle, they are second only to the love I have for the Blood Angels. This video was a perfect example of why I love the Sister of Battle. They are so diverse from Executioner to Healer to Scholar. There is just something about Woman with a Sword cleaving a Daemon in two.

I suspect the sororitas have had some influence in their war gear from the blood Angel's. Sanguinius is basically the imperiums first saint. Angelic jump troops? Sanguinary guard, flamer addiction? Blood Angel's have an entire variant of predator dedicated to setting everything on fire. Blood Angel's are also the only chapter that's happily stock piled inferno pistols. The whole suicidal assault unit even echoes the blood Angel's death company. The sororitas probably have studied a lot of stuff that heavily references the great Angel's legion...

Hey wes thx for the video, every video is an upgrade from the last one, im curious thou what the biggest difficulty for making this kind of long video ? And also your video are good for stories before sleep for my kid :)

[@weshammer]

Oh my gosh, there are so many difficulties! 😂 Well first and foremost, the biggest one is I do everything myself. Most people on KZbin with a similar amount of followers have hired on at least an editor. And it's not uncommon for them to have a script, writer, audio editor, etc etc. Something as simple as zooming in and out on every single picture in a video like this has to be done by hand and can take hours or even an entire day depending on the length of the video. The research as well takes an enormous amount of time. As even if it's something you are super well versed in, You have to fact check what you think you know over and over and over to make sure you get it right. Then there's everything surrounding the actual recording itself, I probably throw away five plus hours of bad takes to get an hour long video. My Brain goes faster than my mouth can keep up with which tends to make me talk really fast and I end up tripping over my words. I think it's an ADHD thing 😅. But I'll tell you what, when you finally hit post and you have a whole bunch of people tell you how much they appreciate all your hard work... Makes it all worth it and is a really great feeling. I never had that at any other job I've worked. Bosses never appreciate anything you do for them even if you went above and beyond. So I can't really put into words how truly grateful I am to everybody who watches my videos.

This was my first proper introduction to the lore of the Sisters and, I've gotta say, I really enjoyed it. I never thought I'd find them as cool as you made them sound.

[@Josh-99]

I absolutely adore this faction, and you provided a fantastic summary of their lore. I don't play the tabletop game, but I do watch tournaments from time to time in my local area. I remember this one guy who had a single Sister of Battle in his army in one tournament, and she was an absolute terror by herself. No strategy seemed to work against her! She was fast and powerful enough to mow down infantry, she was incredibly tough to kill, and if she did die, her death granted bonuses to remaining allied units. They really got them right in the tabletop game!

41:00 ish ... Custodes aren't just elite soldiers tasked with guarding the Emperor. They are also elite artists, scholars, musicians, and most importantly, superior diplomats. Custodes have to be able to converse with the Emperor on any subject he could ever possibly address towards them. Custodes often were sent out to particular worlds or persons as messengers or relayers of information or artifacts directly from the Emperor. I view the choice to flip a group of impressive warriors with a gesture of goodwill, i.e. a short viewing of the Emperor on The Golden Throne, and end a bloody war against fanatics to be a tale of a Custodes flexing their superior abilities as a diplomat over flexing their demi-god like trigger fingers.

[@mide2476]

It makes sense, Custodes still have there humanity in some degree.

I have to say that: thank you for all your videos. I never played the tabletop game, i discovered warhammer 40k with dawn of war years ago, and I never understood the lore, i just thought the game was neat. But thank to you i now can appreciate all the nuiances of the lore, like the God Emperor didn't want to people to be religious, or that "The Bible was written by Satan". The more i doscover this grim dark future, the more i like it. Thanks

I forget what book, but a Guardsman described the Sisters of Battle as being tall, strong, well muscled and rather unattractive. Being both taller and stronger than an unenhanced human man even without power armor and possessing somewhat masculine facial features. The art is pretty misleading when it comes to what we should actually expect them to look like.. but pretty girls sell better. It has been speculated that while the Sisters aren't as enhanced as an Astartes, they may still receive gene enhancement therapy to give them borderline superhuman physiology. Something we know the Imperium is capable of and that an organization as influential as the Ecclesiarchy would have access to. So basically the Imperium has access to their own version of the Super Soldier Serum. So the Ecclesiarchy has an army of female peak-human soldiers whom are completely loyal to them, and all possessing near superhuman physiology. It would explain how they can stand up to Space Marines and Daemons in combat. It is the same for the Sisters of Silence whom are mentioned to have undergone alchemical biological enhancements and are not just regular women in power armor.

[@firmak2]

it doesnt seem to be the case because they have no superhuman feats outside of theyr powerarmor. good old indoctrenation and training does wonders, pun intended.

[@vOddy75]

I'm sure that anabolic steroids and stuff like that are used among the adepta sororitas, but also among several guard regiments. Honestly, why not? I don't see why the sisters of battle would use more drugs than the guard. The reason the adepta sororita look different from normal imperial women (if we accept that they do), I think instead is because that's what you get when you select for warrior women. You're going to favour women who are taller, larger, and manlier. The best killers get to be soldiers on the front line, while the meek ones probably perform other duties in the ecclesiarchy.

[@CorvusCorone68]

I love these long form "deep dive" type videos you do. Just throwing ideas out there, I would love to watch deep dives into specific space marine chapters, and perhaps other things like the Inquisition or specific battles/crusades/campaigns, xenos like the Aeldari. Maybe even things like the different type of worlds in the warhammer galaxy (hive worlds, daemon worlds, forge worlds etc..). There's so much subject matter I personally believe would make for good "deep dive" videos. Much love and good vibes to you sir.

The sisters have to be the most bad ass warrior women in all of fiction. Literally just regular women ripping and tearing just as effectively as a legion of space marines. Doesn't get much more epic than that.

[@geraldposter1496]

My personal take on thors decree was he felt he had to make a decree limiting the cult's power in the aftermath of the age of strife. But he also felt the cult needed a military, so he intentionally created that loophole. That way he could claim he gutted the cults military power but still allow the sisters to get off on a technicality.

[@firmak2]

unlikely due to the chaos the church created, it was just a loophole that he didnt forsee being a loophole.
