[@jiado6893]

I’ve been thinking about these guys a lot lately. GW had gotten really good with portraying liquid and melted textures on new models, and the possessed armor of Eltharion the Grim is one of their best products of all time. So what if they took those concepts, and applied that to all the Legio Damnatorum? Molten armor that’s pouring off in various places like gallons of candle wax. Underneath, animated charred corpses and skeletons are revealed. It really leans into the horror aspects of the warp, instead of painting fire decals and skeletons onto black armor. We could apply the same concept to the vehicles as well! Imagine a zombie Dreadnought, whose center has been blown open, and we could see the undead paraplegic operating it.

@@GabrielArchon I will apologize for nothing Fulgrim, was filled with manic glee, this copy of him was prone on the floor, about to be struck down by his blade. He swung down, already envisioning how the pretender's blood would splash on the ground, decorating it like a fine tapestry. Suddenly the crack of gunshots filled the air, his vision was taken over by a burning light, a searing pain spreading on his face. He felt something hit his blade, pushing it aside... making it miss the disgrace on the ground. He hissed, mostly in annoyance and indignation and opened his eyes to see who dared to interrupt his moment of glory. He saw a group of these accursed marines in black. Those daemons serving his father. But why... why did they seem so familiar. For a second the image before him wavered. The armor blackened by armor gave way for an armor of purple and gold... armor he has not seen for over 10 millenia. But as heavy stomps drew closer the image dissipated, showing the legion of the damned once more now joined by a dreadnought. Its voice booming from its speaker. "We are here to assist our father. To assist in striking you down. For we reject you, for now and for always!" Fulgrim recoiled, his eyes widening as a searing pain spread from an old wound of his soul.

In my heart, the fiery souls of dead Astartes led by the headless Ferrus Manus (that's summoned by Big E Himself during the war on the Webway) will forever be the in-universe original Legion of the Damned. The Firehawks are just the newest addition to the group. And maybe a few other named Space Marines and Dreadnoughts who lived and died like gigachads can also be a part of the Legion. Edit: I stand corrected with that Rylanor jumpscare 😆

[@irateastartes1206]

In my head I don't think he limits it to just astartes but to anybody that choas cheats and kills unfairly. Guardsmen PDF Sisters of Battle pretty much anybody who hates choas from beyond the grave enough to tell Big E "Sure turn me into a fiery daemon and I'll even the score."

[@MarqFJA87]

You are not alone. It just makes too much sense to not be the case; it's the Ur-Betrayal for all Astartes in particular and the Imperium in general, it has got to have an immeasurably greater impact than a single chapter's mysterious disappearance while in Warp transit in the 41st millennium.

Imagine snake boy Fulgrum is back and causing havok, the guard is holding but they are but men in the face of a fallen demi-god. Then the sound of the 'Bell of Lost Souls' rings on this battlefield lightyears from the distant throne world. Out of the air open blazing warp portals, marching from them a true legion of 10,000 flame wreathed black armored marines march force unleashing bolter fire that cuts down the chaos servants by the thousand. Fulgrum a demon-primarch is quick enough to avoid this hail, swiftly diving on the damned souls before they can fully break his forces. Fulgrum then feels premonition "The Ancient Returns", a pristine Contempor Dreadnought accented in flames where gold once trimmed purple leaps toward him a blazing chainfist coming down hard on the snake-man, showering him with flaming autocannon shells. They Dance as the demon-primarch trying to figure what this reminds him of, and then it becomes clear, he screams out "Rylnor, even from the grave you defy me". His eyes flaring with pysker power and he slams the restored relic of war into a building shattering both legs. Then he starts to gather power to destroy this nightmare once and for all before being slammed aside by a massive warhammer. Fulgrum recovers landing a distance away only to see a massive "tech marine" holding a familiar warhammer, the marine lacking a helm unlike the others, but in place of a head there is a skull made of warp flames in it's place, massive marine's arms also stand out rather than than the common black armor and flame they are silver and the warp seems stilled around them. A new battle is joined, unlike any Fulgrum has faced for 10k years, normally is primarch abilities set him above everyone, but this foe while slowed strikes with force that shatters even his demonic body, his fast rengeration pushed beyond limit unable to keep up with the burning wounds left by that hammer. His own attacks not even phasing the juggernaut battling him his warp powers fading when blocked by the warrior's silver arms. Following another bone shaking exchange Fulgrum scans the battle field as he tries to recover and he notices that the, sarcophagus of the dreadnought is open, and where? As a powersword plunges out of his chest, the black armored marine holding it holds in his other hand a burning war-banner, a moment later Fulgrum turns to see a flaming warhammer heading for his own skull, then only darkness. The demon army starts to fade with their prince struck down only to find that they can not escape realspace and they are systematically cut down by the blazing legion. As the last demon falls, the mystery legion fades into the same portals that brought them to the once doomed world. At the site of the battle with Fulgrum burned into the ground, the words "Even in Death We Still Serve"

lyrics since there are none released yet they stride in silence, wreathed in flame burning soldiers with no names armor charred where embers blaze marked by fire, forever claimed no warcries only the silent dread and the creeping hand of death through fields of fire they carve their way a ghostly storm where shadows sway cursed in blood, in the warp's cruel embrace souls forsaken, lost to time and space they are the damned, bound by fire's brand an endless war at his command legion of the damned, the spectres of dread born from the void where the lost are lead no voice, no plea can turn them aside they are his darkness, yet burning so bright legion of the damned, the final breath heralds of silence, his agents of death no light, no dawn, just the endless strife they bring the void where hope has died when hope is lost, they breach the veil from the void they bring his flame specters of wrath in hushed proclaim fury and vengeance uncontained with eyes of flame and hearts of steel they stride from myths that time wont heal they wield the fires of hatred's might silent avengers in the eternal fight cursed in blood, in the warp's cruel embrace souls forsaken, lost to time and space they are the damned, bound by fire's brand an endless war at his command legion of the damned, the spectres of dread born from the void where the lost are lead no voice, no plea can turn them aside they are his darkness, yet burning so bright legion of the damned, the final breath heralds of silence, his agents of death no light, no dawn, just the endless strife they bring the void where hope has died legion of the damned, the spectres of dread born from the void where the lost are lead no voice, no plea can turn them aside they are his darkness, yet burning so bright legion of the damned, the final breath heralds of silence, his agents of death no light, no dawn, just the endless strife they bring the void where hope has died their foes shall feel their burning might for they bring the void where hope has died rising from the void burning brighter than the stars vengeance carved deep in my scars i'll see that phoenecian burns for even in death, i still serve

[@PABCOM1]

Pin this comment! The song of the emperor's angels shall not be denied!

[@michaelolmos8257]

I will remember to sing these lyrics when I fantasize about giving the Jedi and the Sith the imperial brand of order 66!

[@ericdraven8837]

In fire and darkness, they bring Death to HIS foes and Salvation to HIS servants

[@jaba9850]

The Rylanor at the end was so damn good and unexpected i love it

[@Judichar]

wait, hold on. THE ANCIENT OF RITES HOLDS TRUE! REMEMBER HIM BROTHERS, AND HOLD HIGH HIS LEGACY!

[@trynox4fun259]

Unlimited ammo and basically immortal *Yeah they dont fuck around*

[@changesforthebetter7172]

people say Dante would not like duty in the legion of the dammed but I think he would enjoy not being in comand and just being able to fight not worrying about if his actions will get his brothers killed since, well they are already dead

[@jameskurth3560]

That's an interesting though. He'd finally be able to surrender himself to his lineage as well.

[@changesforthebetter7172]

@@jameskurth3560 yeah. Man if he was ever just able to let the slack fall on his rage he would make the blood god ascendant for some time hahahah.

[@thesittingacheroraptor7565]

Ah yes "The Legion of the Dammed" thought to be the lost remmenants of the "Ghost Riders" chapter of Adeptus Astartes, they appear to have a penchant to look an immobilized enemy deep in the eyes before giving them the Emperor's mercy. Also yes, I know about the Fire Hawks chapter shut up, im making a funny meme

[@channelcatfish7862]

Good, awesome as always, almost expected to be a cover of the HMkids one but this is a wonderful treat

[@TitanForgeArtz40K]

Rising from the void, burning brighter than the stars vengeance carve deep in my scars. I’ll see that the Phoenician burns for even in death. I still serve.

[@Kma99107]

Reminda me of a threat I once heard "you kill me and I'll be back, and I'll be pissed so you better make that choice"

[@jesserobertson7072]

HOLY SHIT!!! This song, how is this so good!? StringStorm you were cooking with this one and i salute you sir. A song worthy of the Damned and their eternal war in his name.

[@thatoneguyd7]

The Ancient of Rights, has been reborn in flame. His service to the emperor, and in fire he is draped, his light shall not fade by any hand. Rise Ancient of the Emperor's Children, for your greatest foe still draws breath, for you shall claim his life. For this is your duty, rise Rylanor, the Ancient of the Damned.

[@jakubm1254]

I see ancient Rylanor proudly holding the banner of His new legion! Prepare for your true death Fulgrim!

[@bignelly9476]

Dreadnaught jumpscare. Somewhere Fulgrim is sweating

[@quantum5661]

stringstorm doesnt cook with gas, he cooks with napalm

[@silverwolfgaming1953]

RYLANOR!!! Even in death you still serve, go give fulgrim hell ancient of rites!

[@noahmehringer29]

Hope they start to incorporate more of the Legion of the Damned in more stories. Would love to see Ferrus return as its spectral leader like he did in Master of Mankind (When Big E summoned the first version of it).

[@TemplarBlonic]

Good lord that last bit when Rylanor makes a triumphant return is just... amazing. I pray that some day we will get a conclusive Imperium vs Daemon Primarchs clash where either the Daemon Primarchs are banished permanently(or an extremely long time) or, as the Emperor puts it-- "redeemed," and Rylanor can take vengeance upon that bastard Fulgrim... perhaps even alongside Ferrus Manus.

[@AntonsVoice]

It's a technicality, but Fulgrim has been "redeemed", in Clonegrim.

[@morganfitch8325]

​@@AntonsVoiceIndeed. We just need a rescue mission to break him out of Trazyn's museum (Blood Ravens would have him out before anyone even realised they'd left halfway through the briefing) and for LotD Rylanor and Ferrus Mannus to bitchslap Fulgrim hard enough to permanently destroy him once and for all.

[@SteveKyle-z1z]

What a banger! The first song that i ever heard from you AND the song that made me a big fan of your work was Rylanor's, and now this one with the little detail...I'm speechless, just incredible

[@altorusthegrim3560]

Wasn't expecting Rylanor at the end. ❤ AVE IMPERATOR BROTHERS

[@KelebMoonDancer]

They really need to add the armor and livery of fallen loyalists of the traitor legions. Make Isstvan forever haunt the traitors, itd be such an emperor move to do aswell. "Oh you gonna betray them, i brought back the astartes that hate you the most just for you".

[@the_ogre1234]

The concept of flaming zombie space marines lead by a giant HEADLESS flaming zombie space marine (gee geedubs I wonder who that could be) is absolutely awesome 💪

[@Crumb_cat_lover]

rylanor jumpscare we need more rylanor songs

[@AntonsVoice]

@Crumb_cat_lover not just Rylanor. There are 3 legendary dreads. Rylanor, Ancient of Rites. Last of the Wordbearers, The Anchorite. And the Eldest Wolf Lord, The Fell Hand himself.

[@Crumb_cat_lover]

@@AntonsVoice YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS The Anchorite. need to be heard

[@heinricc]

HOLY SHIT i just googled a bunch of legion of the damned shit only to find you recently made a song about it, talk about foreshadowing

[@nautch900]

its all fun and games for chaos till the warp rifts burst into flames

[@tristamthefriendlyknight8494]

So THESE are his angels of death… Good.

[@mugenokami2201]

These are his archangels

[@LaTortillaVoladora36]

His daemons of vengeance

[@kevinsmail3701]

RYLANOR; THE ANCIENT OF SPITE😂😂😂

[@AtomicDonut18]

Once again StringStorm absolutely crushing it with the songs.

[@eotwkdp]

I can see a legion of the damned dreadnought just smacking a greater daemon. Story’s of dreadnoughts are plentiful. But a warp enhanced dreadnought who moves with the grace as if was always born in flaming ceramite. God it’s murder boner arousing

[@NEEDbacon]

A dreadnaought moving as if it was still a space marine would be TERRIFYING on it's own. Good think i can think of one.

[@ApolloReloaded]

freshly baked. very nice edit: hell yeah!!!! I was thinking it, and then it happened. Pure gold.

[@Xicorax]

Fulgrim will actively participate in the 40k setting when the Emperor's Children get their Codex Update. Ferrus Manus says "Round 2 brother".

[@Sugarierspoon99]

Bro I hope he makes another appearance in the legion of the damned.

[@Xicorax]

@@Sugarierspoon99 Having Guilliman defeat Fulgrim in a 1v1 would take away the only thing he has going for him. The Gorgon, now a Ghost Rider clashing with the Demon Prince Fenix would continue their story, so abruptly ended.

[@Psychoangel-d23]

​@@XicoraxI think if Guilliman is involved it should be him stalling fulgrim and try to lure him into a Killzone. But as the plan fails and Guilliman is cornered Ferrus comes charging from a pillar of fire like a damn freight train battering the ever loving shit out fulgrim.

[@Xicorax]

@@Psychoangel-d23 Yeah, If GW cares about the lore I can see that happening.

[@HPkobold]

Didn’t even watch yet I knew it’s going to be peak

[@vulkanhawkshroud989]

The Legion have a war cry, but only the chaos space marines can hear this whisper: "Vengeance for Istvaan III."

[@baconsinatra8837]

I loved the Books implication that they have to troll someone sufficiently to manifest

[@adventarchivist5789]

Dude. You cooked with Hellfire with this one!!!!

[@schwarzflammenkaiser2347]

Another banger to listen to on repeat.

[@Ness_theperson]

one of the coolest things in WH40k: Imperial deamons!

[@Metazar3]

Nice to have new from Stringstorm. ...Good to have you back!

[@elijahstewart3377]

Still not sure why Rylanor shows up in the end, but its so completely bad ass that all I can do is applaude.

[@exendary8366]

I think it’s part of the theory where the legion of the damned is made up of souls from space marines who died on istvaan

[@spongeyspikes09]

First time listening: Aw yeah! LFG! This song's badass!!!. . . . . . . . Rylanor: Missed me? Me: (Ultra-Manly tears) *Yes! YEEEEESSSS!!!* 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@legionofthedamned9430]

This is great i love this and was that rylanor at the end if it was it was badass

[@Dedsec-m9r]

The ending scared the shit out of me, but its still fire 🔥🔥 Also Fulgrim is gonna get his ass whooped in a way he won't like

[@adriangonzalez7906]

By Holy Terra we aré so BACK!!!!!!!!!

[@totusubertas8952]

Outstanding sound and pacing as always and I think I heard Fulgrim piddle himself at the ending.

[@runningcommentary2125]

Really hope the Legion get new minis some day. They're amazing.
