TERMINATORS OF THE IMPERIUM - Tactical Dreadnought Armour | WARHAMMER 40,000 [LoreGear]

[@Luetin09]

Something people often seem to not realise when it comes to Space Marine armour in general is that the only thing stopping regular humans using it is the neurological interface the black carapace used by Space Marines, if ordinary humans were able to have this implanted any could use both Power and Terminator Armour. This also lends in my mind evidence toward the Stone Men of the DAOT being something akin to cybernetically inhanced humanoids, maybe cyborg-like who interfaced with early proto versions of heavy armour for dangerous industrial work.

[@richardvaldes3959]

I wonder if these will be upsized for Primaris... Sad for the legacy of each current suit.

[@loreman2803]

[@gdogg5247]

Great Vid as usual. What is the power consumption like on these armors when fighting for prolonged periods of time say like a week to a month fight time? ok, so u get fast and thin or slow and thick armors and judging by the R&D involved will they ever jump this hurtle? The grey nights get the best of the best, any exceptions for them in terms of agility?

[@INSOMNIAREX]

How do Inquisitors, particularly of the Ordo Malleus wear power armour. Obviously it's not of the same type as the Astartes but it's no doubt of the highest quality. Could actually make a good video on non-Asartes versions of armours and weapons used by regular humans such as power fists etc.

[@dylanmorris7946]

Considering humans once had the Men of Iron as their main military force, regular humans in suits of power armor may have only been used in industrial and logistical purposes. After all, why have a human in power armor as a main fighting unit when you could build a robot to do the job, often better than the human ever could. Still, your point is valid. It reminds me of the baneblade tank once being considered a light tank in the dark age of technology. Makes you wonder what the heavy tanks were like.

I mean, you're joking, but it kinda makes sense that you'd be able to do that in Terminator armour, in the absolutely insane universe that is 40k. We know from lore, that the Imperium is slinging truly scary amounts of energy in day to day operation, so making servos that fit in the legs og a Terminator suit, that makes it able to leap great distances shouldn't be too difficult. And it also makes sense, given what we know about modern Armoured Fighting Vehicles. Some of the most tactically mobile ground vehicles in any modern army today, happen to also be some of the heaviest (the Main Battle Tanks). It might just be because people have this preconception that heavy must equal low mobility. But even the Tiger tank of WWII was more mobile (faster and more powerful) than lighter tanks og similar vintage (Panzer III and IV).

I just wanted to add some info on the newest of those armour's, the Allarus Pattern used by the Adeptus Custodes. As if they weren't sexy enough just judging by looks, the fluff says that it's a *NEW* version of Tactical Dreadnaught Armor, as opposed to all other versions which range from old to ancient, the product of 10.000 years of research and development! So, it's new and improved... how improved, you ask? Well, according to the lore it offers greater protection than the typical Indomitus pattern, but not as much as the Cataphractii, Gorgon or Aquilon patterns. No, the improved protection isn't the selling point here... it's that the Allarus pattern has *NONE* of the downsides of all other Terminator armour, *offering FULL freedom of movement* just like a regular Power Armor/Black Carapace combo! And of course with the full range of all kinds of WTFBOOM armaments that *Big E's* Golden Boys have access to. *GULP* Now let that sink in for a minute and, regardless of what you are, be it Heretic, Mutant, Xeno or Daemon... pray to the Emperor that you *never* have to face Golden Banana Allarus Terminators in combat, because those guys will teach anything that's smaller than a Baneblade the meaning of "expanded anal circumference"...

The ‘Emperor’s shard myth’ has always sounded reasonable to me. While you couldn’t produce an entire “shard” per armor, you could easily do millions of little metal flakes from what was likely half a ton of armor. There has not been millions of suits of terminator armor, I don’t believe there’s even a hundred thousand of them left. The word ‘shard’ is likely just a poor word choice. On the point of ‘scaled’ power armor, it is far more likely that variants have existed and only been used for VIP’s (due to the rarity and responsibility required for wielding such relics). The reason is that you can’t scale technology up or down easily is that weight/tolerances of the material (density/mass) and user strength (human/astartes) vary wildly. The servo sizes in themselves would also be a likely unresolvable issue and while 40k doesn’t always have to be perfectly logical, this is a bit of an absurd assumption. This also explains why Astra Militarum officers don’t use power armor, for if you could just scale it down and craft copies, you could bet your butt that more generals would be wearing it.

[@NKWittmann]

What the game "Space Hulk Deathwing" did really well was showing how vulnerable even Terminators are if caught off guard by an enemy coming from every direction with superior numbers. Terminators are not invincible and have very exploitable weaknesses. Either you ambush them in close quarters, overpower them with superior firepower or swarm them with numbers.

Honestly, this is why I didn't like the turn based Space Hulk. These things are supposed to be walking weapons platforms, damn near impenetrable and carrying around weapons that have stood the test of time but they got shredded quickly and their guns jammed constantly.

[@Killeraholic]

In lore Tyranid Genestealers are known/infamous for being able to shred through Terminator Armour like it is made of paper.

[@Tacoguy1000]

@@Killeraholic Why then send terminator dudes against them? It feels like a waste.

[@Killeraholic]

@@Tacoguy1000 Because Terminators have the highest chance of stopping them. Due to the weapons they carry... and due to the thickness of the armour even though Genestealers can shred through it, it may take two or three swipes instead of one.

[@Metalgearfox2000]

@@Tacoguy1000 the real reason they send terminators is because the space Hulks are always very radioactive. Even for normal space marine amor. Also since space hulks are one of the most dangerous settings on warhammer, they always send their veterans which are always clad in terminator armor.

Hey Luetin, I'm off to college again, 2nd round, and this was a great video to watch before I plunged head first into scholarly pursuits for the next few months. Thank you!

[@semajdis]

Great video. The idea that Terminator Armour is rooted in DAOT industrial and astro-industrial mechanisms designed to withstand the punishing forces of nature in the interests of collecting resources is interesting (re: your pinned comment). So would I be right in thinking that the Imperium is actually built upon the scraps of a long lost age and is protected by what are essentially techno-knights wearing re-designed ultra deep pressure wet suits or are the Astartes clad in STC designed armour built from the ground up?

[@Luetin09]

You'd think a normal person wearing power armor, especially since it might slow them down but give a power boost, they'd wear a helmet.

I work grave shift from midnight to 8am at a juvenile corrections facility, and I'm using your videos as not only entertainment for long shifts, but to get some of these kids into a fun hobby to keep them out of trouble. Keep up the outstanding work. Recommendation for video I want to see: Deep dive on some of the different eldar factions, and maybe like a worst/best jobs for the eldar. I just started an eldar campaign on DOW soulstorm and i'm curious about the harlequins and the laughing god etc. Just some cool lore on the elder in general that doesn't necessarily relate to the old ones or the necron. And have you ever thought about like a book club mini series? You put out a book and then we read it and blow up the comments section?

Excellent monologue of the origins of this piece of technology. The more I hear of the Warhammer 40K universe the more my fascination increases. Although, it is quite horrific in many aspects that the future has become nightmarish for the species of man in this fictional universe/reality. I'll definitely be looking to hear about the Mechanicum next. Thank you for sharing your labor, voice skills and attention to this subject.

[@SeithonJetter]

Something to consider, FFG lists Mind Interface Units as a cybernetic addon for regular humans. Think of it as a scaled down black carapace to allow links to various armors etc. Which is how humans would be able to use powered armor more effectively while not having the say, bandwidth, to allow for full on sensory interface etc.

[@ParetHardrock]

Im not a die hard 40K fan, I did play Dawn of war I and II but I love this channel lore expert, you get deep into the lore with a great voice and connoisseurship for the 40K so even a noob understand the lore thanks for your videos =)

[@Colonel_Overkill]

On Vracks a very old Inquisitor Rex dueled a greater Daemon of Khorne in his suit of Terminator Armor wrecking it in the process. I believe in this case however that the heavy lifting was done by his blessed sword but none the less minimal combat proficiency was demonstrated by a non augmented human in Tactical Dreadnought Armor.

[@NKWittmann]

Not sure if I get your sentence but duelling a greater daemon is far from minimal

Just wanted to say i enjoy your videos a lot. I've never even played warhammer and knew literally nothing about it except it had space marines, yet i find myself continuing to watch these videos wantjng to learn more. I'm not sure i'd ever play still, but i definitely enjoy the lore and universe that's been created.

[@OfficialMINIm]

The gravis armour worn by aggressors look cool but it just doesn’t compare to the old school terminator armour. Nothing really does in the world of 40k. There’s just something about the way it looks.

[@OfficialMINIm]

Leo Nidas that makes me wonder, if there are requirements in wearing the gravis armour for the primaris space marines like there is for the terminator armour

[@khorney202]

[@trevorberryhill2398]

What about Artificer Armor? How does it stack up to terminator, standard, or any other armor? What makes it so valuable?

[@belorianuskane1952]

Artificer armor wouldl be the top notch version of i.e. regular power armor. Crafted with even more skill and diligence then the standard variant. Every system will be crafted with painstakingly high accurateness from the most simple screw to the armor plates, synthetic muscle fibres, servos, life support, sensors, power supply - you name it. In addition to that the armor would be heavily modified to fit it's wearers needs. I.e. the brother honoured with such an armor is a melee specialist, so he might have certain better systems integrated that'll allow him to react even faster or strike harder. Another could be an exceptional marksman, even by astartes standards, and will most likely run improved systems improving his targeting. What makes them so valuable is that each artificer armor is unique and the chapters too see them as relics - worn by the mightiest champions, in campaigns hundreds or even thousands of years in the past - such armor might even had seen the presence of the emperor or his primarchs - a link to the past and certainly a part of the chapters honour. Tabletop wise (I don't know if they still give a 2+ save but they used to at least^^) the same saveroll as terminators had, were to represent that it was less likely for this armor at being hit let's say the armor plates break/give way, critical systems failed and so on - you know what I mean.

[@Archan2099]

Great video. Glad terminators are getting some love. Feels like this edition they have replaced the Genestealers who had been hiding in space hulks for 2 editions. speaking of space hulks it makes me a bit sad that taking them or void warfare isn't a bigger part of the HH story and that ships are usually treated as ubiquitous and disposable. Before the series came out i had always envisioned the Space Marines excelling at boarding actions aimed at securing and preserving interstellar vessels which the Imperium would be Ravenous for. The marines would have excelled at these all important missions while the hordes Technobarbarians, Cyborgs and regular soldiery could take and hold the more mundane worlds below. Terminators would be a natural evolution of this with their ability to teleport, survive in extreme environments, survive punishing firepower and maintain decent mobility. Fighting in Narrow corridors seems like their natural habitat. This practice would not only have produced many ships from the DoT to still exist in 40K. It would have been a practical and elegant narrative point and believable vector of chaos and alien corruption when isolated or desperate or greedy expedition fleets captured and retrofitted any ship they could get to their hands on. With all the hijinx that would inevitably ensue. Instead Mars seems to have magiced up some million ships and Space Marines and Terminators fought in the open plains for some reason........... the rest is history. # putTheSpaceBackInSpaceMarine
