Warhammer 40k Lore - The Slaugth, Who are They?

[@Daimon-X]

They should be added to the list of "Xenos Horrificus" Deathwatch Kill Team Ira encountered The Slaught on more then one occasion.... All where purge, all burned.

[@teamnoob52]

They have been classified as Xeno Horrificus Maxima since the 37th millennium by order of Inquisitor Quater'maz Knael.

There was a nice Dark Heresy adventure about these guys. You drop down on a planet having a local succession war, with troops armed with muskets and blackpowder cannons where a few elite guards have lasguns. Some kind of weirdos have set up ship in a windmill and the locals are not fit to check out that crap.

[@rootsnootthnute8598]

Would love to see some official miniatures of these guys for something like Blackstone Fortress.

[@GrimDarkNarrator]

Probably not anytime soon.

[@zetanax1041]

I absolutely agree, Blackstone Fortress has brought back the venerable Ambull and Zoat, perhaps someday we will get mini's for the Hrud, Loxatl, and Tarellian Dog-soldiers.

[@hazeljomurphy5277]

I'd like to see more minor xeno races in books. A scenario with a Tyranid fleet seeking to consume a race such as the Slaught or Hrud while the major races have to fight not for their own sake immediately but to prevent the hive mind gaining some of these traits from other xenos. As usual, great content GD!

[@GrimDarkNarrator]

Thank you. More expanded lore for minor xenos would be great, as the potential is nearly endless.

[@hazeljomurphy5277]

@@GrimDarkNarrator I agree. It's a whole galaxy of potential. But I can see how it could be difficult writing minor races in when there is so much going on for the main races. There is already so much lore.

[@olehhumeniuk1632]

According to one version, the xenos that found Alpharius were also called a "slaught." interesting ...

Mordelai's Deathwatch!! HOO-RAH!!

[@GrimDarkNarrator]

That goes for most xenos.

[@dominicomegon4714]

How the hell did they leapfrog the Eldar in tech? That's scary.

[@GrimDarkNarrator]

Mystery adds to the appeal.

[@TheNaturalnuke]

Presumably, they ate them

[@Psyker_Unredactus]

My best guess is that they are not native to the Milky Way Galaxy, and have been around since long before the War in Heaven.

[@dalemoss4684]

This is the best slaugth video out there, thanks!

[@GrimDarkNarrator]

Glad you liked it!

[@zetanax1041]

There is enough variety here for a mini-codex, Intendents and Destructors could be powerful HQ units, with all of their stealth and regeneration shenanigans. I suppose the vassal & warrior vassal constructs would be the troop choices, with the harvest construct as the dedicated transport.

[@GrimDarkNarrator]

Sounds like a good project.

[@samsonsteinreis9660]

I hope, GW never pulishes another "hard" fact about the Slaught, but a million legends and ancounters more. I love those guys.^^

[@jasonulysess3652]

Hello KZbin algorithm please be kind to a show I like.

[@scottlowery8639]

If they meet up with The Rainbow Warriors they would not exist. Another great vid.

[@GrimDarkNarrator]

Ironically, there's more known about the Slaugth than the Rainbow Warriors :D No wonder they are so dangerous.

[@AfroChef]

More for the Deathwatch to defend against

[@a.r.h9919]

As the necron daot hybrid beast that ferrus fought look and wriggle like the deleted pus of man dark souls antagonist

[@blacknwhitehound]

Very interesting ... and horrifying

[@JZ0UK]

I'm not sure which came first, but in The Elder Scrolls there's a race called the Sload which are slug-men which have some similarities with the Slaugth.... That being said as anyone spending any time on twitter will learn, the brain worms are real. 🙄

[@lonegoat81]

Think there is also a d&d monster just like them. this may have come from the times when TSR and GW where much closer and TSR were making random things and sharing them with GW vice versa
