@ti8ick Glad you enjoyed that video! To date one of the best of all time in my opinion. If you want some great lore vids and to learn about the 40k world I would suggest www.youtube.com/@Luetin09 . His vids are great to listen to and he covers lore / characters / the tabletop game etc. Visuals are less important than the audio so they're also good to run in the background while doing whatever chores you have for the day. Hoping Henry Cavill (a fan of the game / lore) will be given enough control of the future TV series project to so the world justice. Amazon does not have a great track record though so fingers crossed.

IMO, this fan-made project (single person) did more to boost the WH 40K brand than anything else in many, many years. Many many thousands of people who would normally never pay attention to anything with any Warhammer in it before, saw this and went "Damn this looks so good, i wonder what this Warhammer thing is all about" and subsequently got converted to the hobby.

If you were wondering what the Psyker said just before he was possessed, he yelled "RECALL THEM IMMEDIATELY!" which prompted that one space marine to take off running to the command deck in order to tell them to leave. Obviously he was too late. While they were in the warp (the black void) the creature that abducted them attempted, as far as i can tell, to collect them all before moving on to the next part of their journey where it was promptly attacked and destroyed by a warp entity, probably a Chaos demon of some kind. This then shot all, or at least one of the space marines back into reality. The warp is NO joke.

So when they can hear them chanting the Astartes try to neutralise the threat immediately.

Great reaction & welcome to the madness of 40k. As a bit of geekdom from an Olde school 40k fan (since '89) I think you need to know a little about the weapon our Astartes are most commonly firing. Those are Bolt guns aka Bolters, or a Bolt pistol. a weapon that can fire in single, semi & full automatic settings. & fires a rather interesting type of ammo which it gets it name from. A Bolt is the name for the rocket powered mass reactive, explosive shells (NOT rounds). Just think on that a second... An automatic firing RPG. Being help like a rifle or pistol. That's why those Heretics just turn to mist when they get hit.

[@DarthVader-lt4zw]

Just to clarify. Astartes refers to the superhuman soldiers known as Space Marines. They are genetically enhanced warriors created by the Emperor of Mankind to serve as the ultimate defenders of humanity. Astartes are organized into various chapters, each with its own unique characteristics, traditions, and combat doctrines. They are iconic figures in the Warhammer 40K lore, known for their incredible combat prowess and unwavering loyalty to the Imperium. If compared to our technology and fighting prowess today, it's believed that 400 Astartes Marines would be overkill for our entire planets military.... Including nukes. Another note... The Psyker (The guy praying and gets pwned by the commanders in white), when he screams out and you hear it muffled? Their suits are supposed to be 100% soundproof, for both entering noise and exiting. Makes it easier to hear commands in combat. When you see the Commander look at his guard, but say nothing, and yet the guard takes off, it's because they're using internal coms inside the suits. So you can now appreciate just how loud he was screaming inside his suit to be heard outside it.

[@wintersdev5194]

Glad some ppl got into 40K from Rouge Trader. I know 40K is dense and Rouge Trader is a really hard core crpg so I know it's not the easiest media to consume. Just to be a mega fanboy and clear stuff up that isn't in Rouge Trader, 40K is more of a setting than a hard continuous IP so you get a lot of variations in power scaling. That means that Space Marines, while always powerful, vary wildly on how strong they are. Also, they are transhuman, having multiple extra organs implanted into them along with usually 20-80 years of combat experience on the low end and the best arms and armor humanity can make. Other thing is everyone that is an organized group of recidivist or not 100% pro Imperium are considered heretics in 40k. It's not always about Chaos or even remotely, well, heretical. Like 1 book a priest had a revelation that the God Emperor and the government where 2 different things and maybe they shouldn't deify a government that cares little for them. He was still advocating to annihilate the alien, mutant, and heretic, just maybe want the Imperium to actually protect them and raise the standard of living. Well can't accept that heresy so he was deemed excommunicate traitoris (which means the highest government has deemed you a traitor, you are kicked out of the church, you and any that follow you are marked for death and you're going to hell when you die) and the Imperium wasted millions of soldiers killing him and everyone under his command.

The newest lore in the books is set after 42,000. And Space Marines after this date are often "Primaris" Space Marines... meaning they're a foot taller and even faster.

[@BonzoDrummer]

41k is not canon. 40k is a setting, not a story. It will always be exactly 999.M41.

[@jonathanryan9946]

@@BonzoDrummer that's false information the first phase of the Indomitus crusade ran from 999.M41 to 012.M42, the the Plague Wars then happening 012.M42. And the War of Beasts ran until 025.M42. The setting is just now breaking into M42. But before 8th edition you would have been correct.

[@BonzoDrummer]

@@jonathanryan9946 There is no 8th edition. Nothing published or produced by GW this century will ever be canon or valid in any way. It is eternally the middle of the 13th Black Crusade, with Guilliman frozen on Macragge.

The Sisters make-up is epic on you! Welcome sister to the forever war!

[@BlackMoridin]

I honestly think that the astartes video is not a good video for 40K noobs to watch. Yes it's impressive however they are missing so many context to actually appreciate the full scope of what's happening that it feel the real impressiveness is kind of lost of them. Having said that I think after you've watched a few Bricky videos, helsreach would be a good one to react to. Arbiter Ian's 40K timeline video is also a GREAT introduction video

[@ti8ick]

Honestly I had no idea what was happening, so I totally agree. I absolutely loved it visually, but context wise I was so lost. I've been recommended to watch Helsreach but I feel like I need to up my lore game a bit before watching it. Also checked out Arbiter Ian's channel, thank you!

[@BlackMoridin]

@@ti8ick yeah Ian's 40k timeline video is best video to get up to speed. Then bricky videos on different races and factions. And after that, there's nothing to it but to do it. At that point helsreach is for sure understandable

[@jakechapman3161]

Another comrade added to the ranks of the empire. I’ve watched a few hundred hours of warhammer lore and I’m still a noob so don’t worry you’re right . All that truly matters is how badass it is and that’s all warhammer is so welcome aboard.

[@BluzCue]

Happy Holidays to you... Retro

[@michaelposey6529]

Your reaction to the knife kills on the psykers was absolutely spot on. Hyper violence is so well done in WH40k.

[@patgray5402]

Mmm I love sister of battle cosplayers

[@KungFuHotdog]

By far the best WH video ever made, so much so Games Workshop tried to get it taken down. And I'm not even an expert on that franchise!

[@FlexStudioPL]

If you have access to the W+ please watch other shows from them. You will love it. Thank you for the reaction! Much love from Poland!

[@ti8ick]

Thanks to you I discovered W+ haha and thank you for watching!

[@DJMpro1999]

Some quotes that stood out for me: 1:16 "I understand nothing but it looks cool" - yeah that sums up 40k 3:18 "How do you even kill someone in a suit of armor like that?" - just wait lol 3:42 "They're almost like the Brotherhood of steal" - exuse me? *cocks bolter* - "but more powerfull" - you're goddamn right they are. 4:16 "some magic bs at work lol" - Thats the correct attitude, SUFFER NOT THE WITCH TO LIVE 6:14 "That's a netrunner" - Actually... no yeah thats a good description of what's going on. We just call em 'tech priests' and they can 'see' the 'noosphere'

[@horzagiar88]

Easy 40k video you say? Watch 40k fan made animation called "Bloom". Not that many reactors know about it.

[@ti8ick]

Thank you for the recommendation! Putting it on my list

[@Vesperdeath]

Found you through KZbin shorts watching the evolution of your costume has been deeply entertaining

[@captainkaleb]

Only watching this because the uploader is cute.

[@Evilfish82]

What's cool about this is the details. Look at the way they move, they way they shoot. This guy, who made them did his research when it comes to showing off their professionalism in the art of combat. And it's funny cause you don't see this much detail in the other videos.

[@Blakkrazor69]

I was under the impression that these were ancient technology relics, perhaps old AI's.

[@kellymoses8566]

I love the fact that the only thing able to severely damage an Astartes was his own weapon.

[@Rosa_Neco]

there are a couple guardsmen that have fully embarrassed some space marines.. haha

[@egg3806]

I think this is how a good chunk of use got into warhammer, watching a vid, seeing it as badass, then getting deeply interested (At least I did)

[@MrTripatouillou]

Heretic Horn, dies in the flames of the Emperor's rage ! Flesh is ephemeral brothers but the Crusade is eternal !!!

[@Tichondrian]

I really enjoyed the Hammer and Bolter episode called: Old Bale Eye. It talks a bit about the orks perspective on fighting the 'umies and what it means to be a great ork. Its available on warhammer TV, GWs own streaming service.

[@Null_Experis]

You kill them with overwhelming firepower. the multi-laser in the tight hallway might have actually gotten through the armor if they had a little more time and accuracy. If you look close, you can see spots on his armor glowing and later on there is damage to it. The guy who got stabbed around the corner in the hallway was also holding what looked like a Melta Bomb. If the cultist had managed to round that corner and set it off, that Marine would have likely died, or at least lost an arm and part of his leg.

[@Koruvax]

Battle sister, you're here with us. The Emperor protects.

[@gamerstuff3458]

5 seconds in and your already excited. I saw it in your face. Yup. Me too. This is badass.

[@trimetrious9]

Its amazing how one person made this. What a badass video. Warhammer 40k for the Win!

[@CapnTytePantz]

"Who are they fighting." It doesn't matter. They are now past tense. For the Emprah!

[@StickmanA]

Astartes is bittersweet. Fans have done more for 40K than GW ever did and GW rewarded them by taking all their content down and barely produced anything in it's place.
